Lyrics

Mike's Love Xexagon

The studio was a hexagon

Old men were sat on one side

Opposite three bald triplets

I stood in the middle

Fumbling with two tin packets

Listen while I tell this tale of woe

The worm in the bacon of BB

His name was Love

But how were they to know

Mike's gift was only poison

When I died - love was all around

When I died - love was in the air

When I died - love was everywhere

When I died

So whilst the cat's away

And the mouse he did play

Plots came thick and fast

Satanic meditations, shadow emissions

So hoist his music on the mast

So look at the worm in the bacon

Good vibrations, man

When I died - love was all around

When I died - love was in the air

When I died - love was everywhere

When I died

Well then I died

Turned the beat to the brink

To post his name high

Thick and fast on the mast

Sail is all broken

The story of love

The story of love

The story of love

When I died - love was all around

When I died - love was in the air

When I died - love was everywhere

When I died

When I died - love was all around

When I died - love was in the air

When I died - love was everywhere

When I died
