The Fall - How I Wrote Elastic Man

[joetotale1]

Apart from 'Jawbone and the air rifle' could this be one of the best Fall songs ever? He's singing plastic man, because he thought no-one listened!

Sounds like he's saying "Spastic man"

[tapper1477]

Feck it let the beard grow. Best lyric ever

@coptersoisoi plus double your AGN irritation in trying to work out the message you're trying to give them in the words of the tune... :-)

Thanks for posting

Maybe not the worst song by the second least best band in all of Manchester.

....There's still a recording of Roche Rumble that turns my coin.

Alternatively, may not be the second least worst song by the best band in all of Manchester.

Well it is a hard picking, yet I guess this is one of my The Fall's favourites.Then again of course it is just the lay of the land...

Thank you Fallfanuk for all of these great posts a.

The boring, shitty globe we live on is a better place for The Fall.

Life should be full of strangeness like a rich painting.

[catbirdtree]

I'll be eternally grateful! Ta pal. I'll eulogise you tomorrow in the shoppies.

[fallfan1]

Love Mark and the boys/girls. I'd love to see Mark reading the BBC News after his wonderful football results effort ;o)
