Random thoughts Stray memories

Sunday, July 21, 2002

But before I sleep, here's the song the singer didn't sing cos it didn't seem like she knew Portishead, and we couldn't be sure if the title's Summer Time, Strange Times or Sour Times though I bet at least 3 of us own the album. Maybe someday we'll request this song again and someone will know how to sing it.

To pretend no one can find
The fallacies of morning rose
Forbidden fruit, hidden eyes
Curtsies that I despise in me
Take a ride, take a shot now

Cos nobody loves me
It's true
Not like you do

Covered by the blind belief
That fantasies of sinful screens
Bear the facts, assume the dye
End the vows no need to lie, enjoy
Take a ride, take a shot now

Cos nobody loves me
It's true
Not like you do

Who am I, what and why
Cos all I have left is my memories of yesterday
Ohh these sour times

Cos nobody loves me
It's true
Not like you do

After time the bitter taste
Of innocence decent or race
Scattered seeds, buried lives
Mysteries of our disguise revolve
Circumstance will decide ....

Cos nobody loves me
It's true
Not like you do

- Portishead, Sour Times
