lyrics

Once there was a time you were mine, all mine
Now I'm acting on the absence of tingles down my spine
Baby it's not the weed, or this whisky I'm drinking
It just musta been my loins that were doing all the thinking.

I won't have this any more, this has happened twice before
Now the only banging going on is at a chained and bolted door,
Can't believe at one point I would've required a knee pad, so
Don't you dare question my respect for what we had.

How can I explain again,
When who what and where are in the way of when?
Timelines; fractured guidelines of what went wrong
Aren't the source of resolution that'll kepp you strong.

Maybe it's those eyes, fixed and grimmaced, always looming
Every time I'm handed change or served a fine ale from a woman
Or maybe it's your one ounce of effort to my 86
And maybe it didn't help that most of your friends are pricks.

We're fixing a broken mechanism with a broken mechanism.

The beans spilt when you took it to the hilt
Still I bit my lip for fear of your uncles losing their grip
What I wanted to say was traits of your mum's were coming my way
Well fuck that noise, I won't put that on my girls and boys.

So in retrospect, I've identified all your defects
But my hands are raised, this root had to take one big, long turn
That's three years away, pissed all over the dirty washing
Not much left to say about that fucking day that I met you.

about

Pump Action Glasgow, UK

'Listeners are offered the opportunity to have their comfort zones exploited with a fusion of grinding alt rock, hip hop, noise punk and furious libidos.

Their fan base (‘hos and souljas’) connect on a spiritual level not only with Pump Action’s raw music but their sexually infused lyrics and pop culture referencing, which is akin to a conversation with an aroused Quentin Tarantino.’
