Humming
Colin Newman, Graham Lewis, Matthew Simms, Robert Grey
[Verse 1]
Spy the Russians
Brushing scandals
Under oligarchy rugs
[Chorus]
I can't quite remember
When it went wrong
Someone was humming
A popular song
[Verse 2]
Scope the bushes
Rustling longhorns
In a dust-cloud Texan fog
[Chorus]
I can't quite remember
When it went wrong
Someone was humming
A popular song
[Verse 3]
Silo dredgers
Fashion wedges
Atoll empire vacuum fills
[Chorus]
I can't quite remember
When it went wrong
Someone was humming
A popular song
[Outro]
I've been robbed in Roma
Gutted in Glasgow
From the Rockies to Chicago
To free-zone, to no-go
