So that's where this popvideo comes from. Fantastic. Brilliant band. When will they tour again ... in their wheelchairs? Who would care? With ideas like this.. and dance the night away. What fun!

Funk pop a roll consumes you whole

Gulping in your opium so copiously

From a disco, everything you eat is waste

But swallowing is easy when it has no taste

Everything you eat is waste

But swallowing is easy when it has no taste

Brilliant lyrics!! And so true!!

Considerablymore1 I agree with every depression of your keyboard. I have never met anyone with a goatee beard who shouldn't be napalmed whilst fully conscious. Bring out the Branson.

Funk-Pop-A-Roll beats up my soul. Not my favorite song of XTC's, but one of the most memorable "bites" of all time.

Great '97 memory of "Upsy Daisy Collection", which also has this song on it. I got selected to go to Japan on the JET Programme and I bought that CD as a congratulations gift to myself. This was the song I played the most.

I Deserted XTC after 'Mummer'. What a fool i was. I am now re-discovering this most precious of bands. Sheer brilliance. Funk pop a roll indeed Mr.Partridge.

@23Daves XTC 'Play At Home' Features a bunch of videos from Mummer album tracks. This is one that AP was actually reasonably happy with.

I've forgotten how many long summer evenings I spent playing this out of the window of my Croydon family home window, hoping the listening youth would convert. I was wrong. Bye Bye
