    Once again I've worked with Gavin Day on the artwork for the hard copy of this record. It ls very beautiful. I also think this album is probably the first one of mine that would really do well be played in a car. In fact, in many ways the chief inspiration for the whole record was the 1995 compilation "Drive Time", which featured Steve Winwood, Warren Zevon, Cher, and The Beautiful South, and soundtracked most of my car journeys aged 6-10.

lyrics

All the machines are whirring in the warehouse
All the uniforms are using their degrees
I don’t know where you study to learn this kind of information
It all seems pretty dubious to me

They’ve made models of the structures of your body
They are looking for your weakness and strengths
But there’s people in your corner sure you’ve got a fighting chance
Even though they know just what you’re up against

Maybe if you had a sword, a military sword
Maybe if you had a gun, a double-barrelled gun
Maybe if you had a shield, an iron-plated shield
We coulda levelled up the playing field
Before the battle had begun

Spartan vs. Ninja was a whitewash
Ninja wasn’t even getting close
Spartan’s spears were thrusting through his torso
And the Ninja didn’t land a single blow

And in the match Jesse James vs. Al Capone
You know it’s Jesse James all day long
That’s why Cher wrote the song about Jesse James
And why Cher didn’t write shit about Al Capone

Maybe if you had a vest, a standard-issue Kevlar vest
Maybe if you had a knife, a Nepalese Khukuri knife
Maybe if you had attacked without one hand behind your back
You’d pin that fucker to the mat, have him fighting for his life

Well ain’t that just like life, you’re the knife in a gun fight
With blades in your shoes, you’re set up to lose, and now I’m just tongue-tied
You were always gonna go down in flames,
You were always gonna go down in flames

But maybe if you’d had a whip, like Indiana’s whip
Or maybe if you’d had a bomb, a sophisticated bomb
Or maybe if you’d had the will, we’d be in the trenches still
And you could go in for the kill
With everyone cheering you on
