lyrics

MARWAR JUNCTION © Hamilton/Pope 2019

We met on the level
Passed on the square
We’re together but not together
We’re here but not all there
And there’s an invite
Tonight
To a fungus function
But both of us
Will miss the bus
We’ve got to meet a man at Marwar Junction

Blind drunk behind the shades
Cancel the morning after
’Cos if we stop we’ll disappear
And you can’t frame laughter.
Freedom’s an open-air dungeon
Marwar Junction.

What at first
Sounded prosaic
Became the worst
Obvious and formulaic
Are we cursed
To wander this mosaic
For infinity?

We’re not together now we’re together
We’re all there but not there
We’re spiralling in different circles
And both of them are square.
And the kids are dreaming
Screaming
Hair-pulling and air-punching
And I'm beside myself
At Marwar Junction
(Get your kettle on the go, grab your blow and get the Eno on)
And I'm beside myself
Marwar Junction
(Get your kettle on the go, grab your blow and get the Eno on)
And I'm beside myself

about

This Little Badge New Plymouth, New Zealand

Q: Are they hipsters?

A: When the occasion arises, we can be quipsters, tipsters, spicy dipsters, checkers-of-sundry-video-clipsters. But musically, we are definitely and always cut-the-crap-and-get-a-gripsters.
