Sign here with Blood

about

My favourite Pink Floyd album is 'Wish you were here'. The opening of the B-side is called Have a Cigar, a reflection on the record industry. Though I do not like that song in particular, I do like its lyrics. When it dawned on me, that the theme for this album should be deception, I felt that I should do my own version of Have a Cigar. The music owes more to early Peter Gabriel than Pink Floyd. I've always loved the way Peter Gabriel used marimbas, a kind of Robert Fripp on marimbas.

lyrics

You better get your act together
If you want to break through
So just sign this legal paper
And I'll do what I do

Don't you want to be successfull
Is that a part of your plan
I'll help you avoid the pitfalls
And not fall for a scam

This business is blissfull
And so full of your dreams
I understand completely
Please let me set your scene

It's pretty easy if you
Just do as I say
But don't you ever question my judgement
'Cause there's only my way

I've got a shop to run here
But I have to confess
I've made a solid firm that's
Build on your success

So sign here with blood

And I'll exploit the fact
That you're a naïve blue eyed brat
My bankaccount will swell
That's where I excel
