BISCUIT
From the album 'Dummy'
[5:04]
LYRICS:
I'm lost, exposed
Stranger things will come your way
Its just I'm scared
Got hurt along time ago
I can't make myself heard
No matter how hard I scream
Ohh sensation
Sin, slave of sensation
Full fed yet I still hunger
Torn inside
Haunted I tell myself, yet I still wander
Down, inside, its tearing me apart
Ohh sensation
Sin, slave of sensation
Ohh sensation
Sin, slave of sensation
At last, relief
A mothers son has left me sheer
The shores I seek
Are crimson tastes devine
I can't make myself heard
No matter how hard I scream
Ohh sensation
Sin slave of sensation

COMMENTS:
I've got my own little
set-up at home, so I jam my part out and then
take it back to Geoff who sometimes helps
with the arrangements and drops in whatever
samples he's got up his sleeve. That's how,
for instance, we added the 'I'll Never Fall
In Love Again' bit to 'Biscuit'. The sample
makes the song but it was actually an
afterthought. Beth
I put "Biscuit" on the album
because I tried to make some that's a mess,
but tuneful, but emotional as well. But then
I get off on things like scratches. Geoff
