The percussion in this track is the sound of a cushion and chopping board being hit. The song also features harmonics played on the bass (which is quite a rare thing if you're geeky enough to understand it!), courtesy of Lucy Smith.
lyrics
Mr Revolutionary
What are you doing now?
Are you confusing me again? Good try.
Think you’re so fantastic? All those words you say.
I don’t care anyway.
So now I must flee while the light remains
There’s time – I can gather myself
Must get clear. Get me out of here.
(pretending you care)
It’s frightening to say but I like all this:
Annoyance on your side alone
One last time I realise now
You’re noting but I have grown.
You’re denying now.
All those band habits that you had can be changed?
“Mr. Revolutionary!” But I don’t agree.
You’re the same now. Can’t you see?
So now I must flee while the light remains
There’s time – I can gather myself
Pull myself clear while there’s still time to breathe
There’s time – I can gather myself
