What's wrong?
We met in wartime in the organic shop
We got drunk at yours on organic hops
We sang along to Top of The Pops sometimes
We sat laughing in the Chapter bar
We drank strong beer and listened to Ninjah
I fell over in the car park, we kissed (oh yeah)
We were pissed (oh yeah)
We had a puppy and a patio
Became members of Castle Bingo
But now you say you're too busy to go, what's wrong?
And now you tell me that you're going away
And I can find the words to make you stay
But you're not listening to me anyway
What's wrong?
For me this is both a beautiful song on a literal level and an allegory for living the socialist life - 'you wish all the wrong things in the world could be right'... 'If we collect all the strays and make them feel safe, there'll be some more out there to keep us awake.' Chris Clark
Welsh art-rock group HMS Morris make music full of plot twists; explosive, colorful rhythms can turn into shadowy introspection on a dime. Bandcamp New & Notable Dec 22, 2020
