Fortress/Deer Park - The Fall

Two hours With four left-wing kids

I spent time in a Nazi fortress

Much discussion in room CH1OCH11

I did not understand why, I could not accept the fact

That I’d accepted the contract

Much discussion in this institution

Much discussion in boiled beef and carrots

Room CH1OCH11

It was so clear in the window eye, the brick outlined the blue sky

And I had to go 'round the gay graduates in the toilets

And Good King Harry was there

Much discussion in room CH1OCH11

I took a walk down West 11, I had to wade through 500 European punks

At an off-license I rubbed up with some oiks

Who threw some change on the Asian counter

And asked polite if they could have two lagers

A hospital discharge asked me where he could crash

Have you been to the English Deer Park?

It’s a large type artist ranch

This is where C Wilson wrote Ritual in the Dark, have you been to the English

Deer Park?

Spare a thought for the sleeping promo dept., they haven’t had an idea in two

years

Dollars and deutchmarks keep the company on its feet, say have you ever have a

chance to meet

Fat Captain Beefheart imitators with zits?

Who is the King Shag Corpse?

Have you been to the English Deer Park?

It’s a large type minstrel ranch

This is where C Wilson wrote Ritual in the Dark, have you been to the English

The young blackies get screwed up the worst, they’ve gone over to the Hampstead

house suss

An English system they implicitly trust, see the A&R civil servants

They get a sex thrill out of a sixteenth of Moroccan, they get a sex thrill out

of a sixteenth of Moroccan

Yes, the traffic hasn’t changed that much, there’s still a subculture I feel

adrift of
