lyrics

I’m trying to be more like you
That’s what you want me to
I don’t want to be me
Don’t want people to see
Trying to wear me down
See how depraved I can be
I consider myself
To be unreasonably free

Bloody typical people are cynical
Bloody cynical people are typical
So predictable people are miserable
Typical they’d rather I’m invisible


Feel like a man on a fire
Turning round on a spit
First they fattened me up
Stuffed me up full of figs
Beat me down with a stone
Dragged me back to their home
Then danced round the fire
Trying to eat my desire

I’ve met so many cannibals
That wanted to eat us all
I’ve met so many cannibals
Longing to eat us all up


I’m the miracle child
I’m so fuck’n inspired
I’ve been lying awake
Thinking how to escape
Let’s get a little wild
But let’s do it with style
Take a gun to our head
Let them feast on our brains

about

Belter UK

With lyrics sharper than razor-wire and tunes that stick the boot in, Belter is punk for grown-ups who like a dance.

Their first single "TV Junkie" was released in 2012, gaining worldwide airplay and acclaim.

It was followed in January 2013 by a 3-track EP, ‘Invisible Cat’, which sees the band’s trademark sound expanded with a little help from their friends on strings, brass and slide guitar.
