Valley of the Lost Women - John Cooper Clarke[00:00:00]
Written by:John Cooper Clarke/James Martin Hannett/Stephen Anthony Hopkins[00:00:02]
The windows are frigidaire icebergs[00:00:14]
Frozen in prickly heat[00:00:18]
The vanishing cream victims[00:00:21]
Are drip fed amnesia neat[00:00:24]
Where the test card melodies warm you[00:00:28]
In powder blue pseudo bel air[00:00:31]
Germs and flies alarm you[00:00:35]
They whisper the word expelair[00:00:38]
The eyes of the night sub zero[00:00:49]
Peep through the windows of sleep[00:00:53]
Everyone's husband is a hero[00:00:56]
And ghost insurance men creep[00:00:59]
Through the valley of the long lost women[00:01:02]
Dreaming under the driers[00:01:07]
Eating and sleeping and slimming[00:01:10]
According to what is required[00:01:13]
They walk through three colour brochures[00:01:16]
Depicting palms on aqua marine[00:01:19]
In the half built hotels out of focus[00:01:23]
They're mending the vending machines[00:01:27]
Where sixty Italian love songs[00:01:30]
Are sung to a million guitars[00:01:34]
They lick their frozen drinks on sticks[00:01:37]
Among the men with important cigars[00:01:40]
Numb to the digital numbers[00:01:45]
None two three[00:01:48]
Four five six[00:01:50]
Lost in a far away rhumba[00:01:51]
Where the oil drums are beaten with sticks[00:01:55]
She left her heart in Frisco[00:01:58]
She left her room in a mess[00:02:02]
She left her hat in the disco[00:02:05]
She never left her address[00:02:09]
The diving board springs to assistance[00:02:12]
Throws you off from the shore[00:02:16]
Telephones ring in the distance[00:02:19]
There are lifts getting stuck between floors[00:02:23]
A truck turns into a cul de sac[00:02:26]
Springtime turns to ice[00:02:30]
Rucksacks turn into hunchbacks[00:02:33]
Musclemen turn into mice[00:02:37]
In a painless panorama[00:02:40]
With its perpendicular might[00:02:43]
The women are going bananas[00:02:47]
And disappearing from sight[00:02:51]
What do the girls say[00:03:00]
