Fall · Other Songs - Fall

A serious man

In need of a definitive job

He had drunk too much

Mandrake anthrax

[Pro-rae, pro-rae]

[Laurent/A law on]

Tormented tots

With Burton weeping

His idiot contacts

Hooray, hooray

Hooray, hooray

Put your claim into Tempo House

Go round there to Tempo House

Go round and have a grouse

Put your claim into Tempo House

Roll the chubby round jowls

Roll the chubby round jowls

And Burton's weeping

His chairs are weeping

God damn the pedantic Welsh

Hooray, hooray

Put your claim into Tempo House

Go round there to Tempo House

Go there and have a grouse

Put your claim into Tempo House

I'd sing solitaire for the B.E.F.

But who wants to be with them, anyway?

Snow on Easter Sunday

Jesus Christ in reverse

I tell ya, the Dutch are weeping

In four languages at least

Hooray, hooray

Hooray, hooray

And Burton is weeping

Put your claim into Tempo House

Put your claim into Tempo House

Go round and have a grouse

Put your claim into Tempo House

Illness, pollution, should be encouraged and let loose

Then maybe some would have a genuine grouse

Spring right out of the fetters

Right away from tempo market place

Tempo House address

Hooray, hooray

Aurora

Winston Churchill had a speech imp-p-p-pediment

And look what he did

He razed half of London

And the Dutch are weeping

Lusted after French paintings

Hooray, hooray

Put your claim into Tempo House

Go round there and have a grouse

Go round, have a grouse

Put your claim into Tempo House

Hooray, hooray

Hooray, hooray

Tempo House

Tempo House is a track by the English electronic duo Fall, released in 1991. The song exemplifies the band's signature blend of industrial noise and melodic pop sensibilities, characteristic of their work during the early 1990s. Produced by the group, the recording features the distinctive vocal style of vocalist John Cale, who provided lead vocals on several of Fall's tracks. The composition reflects the post-punk and electronic influences that defined the band's catalogue, creating a sound that was both abrasive and strangely melodic. As part of their broader discography, Tempo House stands as a key example of Fall's contribution to the alternative music scene of the era, showcasing their ability to merge complex textures with accessible hooks.
