The ground is getting frosty
Then small drops of mint on my scarf
My lifespan is an unknown
I've never strayed far from the path

I'll wrap myself in bandages
And leopard skin and bandages
And nobody will bother me
I'll wrap myself in bandages
Till it gets ridiculous
And nobody will bother me

Drink the Elixir

With Saturn on the stopwatch
There's hope for me yet on this Earth
But Venus had an off day
A century's gone by since my birth
I'll wrap myself in bandages

  • thank you so much for posting this! i championed salad as my favourite band for many many a year.... not many jumped on the band wagon with me.... i'm hoping to find some footage of the cover of raindrops keep falling on my head that they did with terry hall on here.... that would make my day :) x x

  • De rien.

    Yes,they did a cover with Terry Hall of Dream a Little Dream and not Raindrops keep falling on my head.

    Unfortunately, I don't have it.

  • Been looking everywhere just to hear this again. What a fantastic song, better than I remember! Lost my cassette version of the album years ago and haven't been able to replace it at all. In the meantime, THANKS for posting a true Indie classic! My search for a copy goes on....

  • @Sonicyouthism Marijne van der Vlugt has always been such a good looking woman. And a real rock-chick to boot!

  • MARIJNE! LEKKER!!!

  • One of those songs, once heard never forgotten. Love the dirty guitar lick. Is it just me or has anybody else noticed the dancer in white isn't wearing any knickers?

  • this does bring back some memories....love this song!

  • This song is amazing. Salad were a great little band but for some reason they missed the bus. A terrible shame really.

    Fantastic guitar sound though, not to mention guitarist

  • OUi

    

  • THIS IS THE GREATEST VIDEO OF ALL TIME - that potent mix of contemporary dancing with a great indie song! i can certainly dance like that to this song!

  • I HATE THIS VIDEO-BUT LOVE THIS SONG-Got some Salad stuff on my channel-On The Beat..!
