Artist/Band: The Fall
Lyrics for Song: Deer Park
Lyrics for Album: The Complete Peel Sessions 1978-2004 [2005]



I took a walk down West 11

I had to wade through 500 European punks

At an off-license I rubbed up with some oiks*

Who threw some change on the Asian counter

And asked polite if they could have two lagers

A hospital discharge asked me where he could crash

Have you been to the English Deer Park?

It's a large type artist ranch

This is where C Wilson wrote Ritual in the Dark

Have you been to the English Deer Park?

Spare a thought for the sleeping promo dept.

They haven't had an idea in two years

Dollars and deutchmarks keep the company on its feet

Say have you ever have a chance to meet

Fat Captain Beefheart imitators with zits?

Who is the King Shag Corpse?

Have you been to the English Deer Park?

It's a large type minstrel ranch

This is where C Wilson wrote Ritual in the Dark

Have you been to the English Deer Park?

The young blackies get screwed up the worst

They've gone over to the Hampstead house suss

An English system they implicitly trust

See the A&R civil servants

They get a sex thrill out of a sixteenth of Moroccan

They get a sex thrill out of a sixteenth of Moroccan

Have you been to the English Deer Park?

It's a large type artist ranch

This is where C Wilson wrote Ritual in the Dark

Have you been to the English Deer Park?

Yes the traffic hasn't changed that much

There's still a subculture I feel adrift of



Yes the traffic hasn't changed that much

There's still a subculture I feel adrift of

Have you been to the English Deer Park?

It's a large type minstrel ranch

This is where C Wilson wrote Ritual in the Dark

Have you been to the English Deer Park?

Have you been to the English Deer Park?

It's a large type minstrel ranch

This is where loads of punks congregate in the dark

Have you been to the English Deer Park?

Have you been to the English Deer Park?

It's a large type minstrel ranch

This is where C Wilson wrote Ritual in the Dark

Have you been to the English Deer Park?

Hey tourist it wasn't quite like what you thought

Hey Manchester group what wasn't what you thought

Hey Scottish group that wasn't quite like what you thought

Hey Manchester group that wasn't what you thought

Hey Scottish group that wasn't quite like what you thought

Quite like what you thought

Hey Midlands, scooped yer, how d'you ever get the job?

Hey Manchester group from it wasn't quite like what you thought

Quite like what you thought

Guess what

Guess guess guess...

Guess what
