Artist/Band: The Fall
Lyrics for Song: The Reckoning
Lyrics for Album: Other Songs - The Fall



I phoned you up from Dallas

But your heart was still in marble

And your head

Was reckoning



Your friends are dis-compos-mentis

And like most in leather jackets are

Coveting

Reckoning, reckoning



And you're sleeping with some hippie half-wit

Who thinks, he's Mr. Mark Smith

Reckoning

Beckoning, reckoning, reckoning



I'm left alone in Europe

Consulting an atlas

Wandering

Wandering



And it's evil that you spark off

In disguise as basic truth

Listening

Listening, listening



Reckoning

Reckoning

Reckoning

Beckoning



Reckoning

Beckoning

Reckoning


The Reckoning

The Reckoning stands as a compelling song in The Fall's extensive and idiosyncratic catalogue. Marked by the band's signature post-punk intensity, the track captures the raw energy and experimental spirit that defined their approach to recording. Throughout their long career, The Fall consistently challenged conventional song structures, blending gritty instrumentation with unconventional lyrical delivery. This song reflects that enduring commitment to artistic exploration, offering listeners a snapshot of the group's distinctive sound. While specific album placements may vary across different releases, the track remains a testament to the band's prolific output and their ability to maintain a unique voice within the English rock landscape. The Reckoning invites fans to engage with the complex textures and rhythmic drive that characterize the group's broader body of work.
