Name: Your Majesty (original version)
Duration: P00H03M01S
Description: Though there was a later version released on the cassette "the fish who could swallow the sea", this is an earlier version that was previously unreleased. It is a good example that I would sometimes re record a song entirely to make a better version of it, rather than just remix or rework it

lyrics

The snake that I had captured got away went to play
didn't say the things that I would like it to
and so I felt like shouting cause I couldn't get the snake to speak
it just would keep on hissing - hissing - bitching
my thoughts go out entirely for snake bites never heal
and that poor unknowing boy who is dead
tried to warn him - tried to keep him from the things of danger
keep him from the things of harm
but he didn't listen - cause they never do (little boys)
and now I sit here wondering why I didn't fry the snake in grease and eat it
I could use the food
and little boys would still be living laughing shouting screaming
when they do not get their way
so maybe it is better to keep the snakes alive
keep them free
let them do just what they want to
and maybe I am glad to see the killing streak continue
it's survival of the fittest of the bravest of the wisest of the law
should have stayed at home, my little boy
and watched your rose and kept your planet clean

Great artifacts revived for musical history. This release has all the going on's of a creative mind during Post-punk experimental atmosphere. Thomas Leer informing us that he was there too in the genius pool along the likes of early Human League/ Cabaret Voltaire and TG. My fave song was a Tossup athough I was entranced by the minimal and seductive beauty of Back of My Mind I choose Urbaine for its stark beauty futurism + brilliant signature Leer stream of conscious main keyboard riff.
