Market Day Lyrics


The twisted trees in the station yard
Sing the prices out when the wind blows hard
On market day, market daaay
You read it there in the trader's eyes
That there is something going wrong weatherwise
On market day, market daaayHello hello
Too high too high
I told you so
Goodbye goodbye
So they sell their novels and wedding rings
where the creaking sign of king eddie swings
On market day, market daaay, market daaayAnd even Hilda the grocer's girl
Shifts uneasily as the dollars curl
On market day, market daaayShe's all venusian flytrap
But no flies on her on this or any other day
On market day, market daaayHello hello
Too high too high
I told you so

Goodbye goodbyeSo they man the phones in their stripey shirts
While their bimbo girlfriends dish the dirt
On market day, market daaay
Hello hello
Too high too high
I told you so
Goodbye goodbye

The Brotherhood of Lizards were the product of Martin Newell, former leader of The Cleaners from Venus, and Nel, former bassist for the Cleaners. The duo released one home-made cassette album, which lead to them being signed by Captain Sensible's Deltic records.

The Duo promoted the album via a cycle tour, appearing and playing in record shops, and busking to promote their shows. The group officially dissolved due to Nel getting the job of bass player for New Model Army. However, Martin and Nel still work together on Martin's solo albums. Read more on Last.fm.
