The Pigs Are Coming

The pigs are coming, the pigs are coming
the pigs are coming, the pigs are coming, coming
the pigs are coming, the pigs are coming
give me the money, cos I'm still running

Recorded February 82. I like this a lot and think it could have been considered for inclusion on Obscenity. A siren-like drum/synth pulse and sonorous Bristow Organ combine with a slurred, world-weary voice, both disgusted and complicit, that sings about the everyday luridness and venality of life in the neon-lit city, with a sardonic eye out for any objections. Teenage tragic pessimism. GG
