This is the title Track from our Album "EDGEWISE", from 1997. J.P. was the instigator on this one! There are references to O.J.'s trial, etc.., etc. & lots of dark imagery. The Video is by Sherine Cisco who creates a marginally dystopian environment that threatens the central character. My favourite "J.P." line in it is; "The T.V.'s on, I'm not alone!"
Dave Bingham - Vocals
J.P.Hovercraft - bass & Bkg vocals, sound effects & programming
George Bertok - keyboards, electric & acoustic guitars & percussion
Written & Produced by: Bingham, Bertok & Hovercraft.
Engineered by: J.P.Hovercraft
.LYRICS :-)
Should be able to sleep at night, take a pill, unplug the phone.
I call, machines answer, (the t.v.'s on I'm not alone).
No idea how I got here, feel so disconnected. I said and did what was expected, and still:
I couldn't get a word in, I couldn't get a word in edgewise.
Couldn't get a word in, couldn't get a word in edgewise.

Walking wounded fill the sidewalks, man-made monsters roam the streets.
I act I'm implicated, stand unmoving scared to speak.
Frozen lips my tongue is twisted, it's pissing rain and cold outside!
One wrong move and I could shatter, but it doesn't seem to matter.
I couldn't get a word in, I couldn' t get a word in edgewise
I couldn't get a word in, edgewise!

Bloodshed in my living room, tally up the body count.
Commentator speaks too soon, he drowns me out!
I couldn't get a word in, I couldn't get a word in edgewise.
I couldn't get a word in, I couldn't get a word in, edgewise!
