Teeth moved like insects,
searching for food,
weasels were par-boiled, beetles were stewed.
Porcine confectionary, Battenberg hog,
a preacher was dressed up in the guise of a dog
Don't you talk to me like that
Stained black dentures, chitin-encased,
Tapes of Roy Harper, slightly erased.
Bedlam was burning, like Newton Heath.
Life was a building without any teeth.
Don’t you talk to me like that.

There was silence...

We were sitting, we were talking
We were thinking of the day to come
We were eating, we were sleeping
We were drinking Wray & Nephew rum
We were laughing, we were joking
We were smoking, we were writing
We were washing, we were reading
We were drowning, we were dreaming
Dreaming, we were dreaming
Reminiscing
There was silence…
Oh, by the way…

Laryngitis, lancinating, Lassar’s Paste, inoculating,
Locomotor ataxia, litmus paper, panacea,
Pancarditis, panchromatic, panic state of a fanatic,
In the panleucopenia of a fatal photalgia
Ho Ho Ho Ho !
The Big Analgesic
Plague of boils and boiling plastic, putrefying and elastic,
Pyorrhoea, pyosalpinx, rhinoscope and Twenty Small Drinks,
Twenty pairs of bones in thorax, all united by some Borax,
From the spine and from the sternum, let us slice them up and burn ‘em.
Artificial crown on tooth root, artificial form of breadfruit,
Fructose / lactose / lactoflavin, take your filling out and cave in,
Lactic acid / lactiferous, your secreted milk will scare us,
Nasal duct and lacrimation, shed your tears for animation.
Ho Ho Ho Ho !

Big Block 454 Hebden Bridge, UK
Since the late 80s, Big Block 454 has been making exploratory, highly individual music that encompasses rock, funk,
electronica, folk music, Dadaist collage and much more besides.
Each band member is a multi-instrumentalist, but Big Block 454’s approach also encompasses the creation of sound on instruments they don’t know how to play, and those that hadn’t been invented before the band made them.
