The Half Man Half Biscuit Lyrics Project

Eno Collaboration

Number one in Britain and successful in the States
So round the table me and label bosses contemplate
You’ve got to get a second home
And hang with Chrissie Hynde
And get yourself some Ray-Bans ‘cos boy you know it’s time
For your Eno – Eno collaboration
All across the nation
As sure as night follows day

I travelled South America recording different sounds
I danced within an elven ring of quicksilver delight
Highly influential documentary guaranteed
Who put the ‘con’ in concept?
It was me with my Eno – Eno collaboration
All across the nation
As sure as night follows day

I know Bono and he knows Ono and she knows Eno’s phone goes thus:
“Brian’s not at home, he’s at the North Pole
but if you’d like to leave a weird noise”

So roll up for the Eno – Eno collaboration
All across the nation
As sure as night follows day

I went from the Andes to the Indies in my undies
A light aircraft was on standby just in case I got bored
In Montego where my ego fair blocks out the sun
Sing Aurora Borealis, über alles, on toast
