Lyrics:
Who's on the seventh floor
Brewing alternatives
What's in the bottom drawer
Waiting for things to give

Spare us the cutter
Spare us the cutter
Couldn't cut the mustard

Conquering myself
Until I see another hurdle approaching
Say we can, say we will
Not just another drop in the ocean

Come to the free for all
With seven tapered knives
Some of them six feet tall
We will escape our lives

Spare us the cutter
Spare us the cutter
Couldn't cut the mustard

Conquering myself
Until I see another hurdle approaching
Say we can, say we will
Not just another drop in the ocean

Am I the happy loss
Will I still recoil
When the skin is lost
Am I the worthy cross
Will I still be soiled
When the dirt is off

Conquering myself
Until I see another hurdle approaching
Say we can, say we will
Not just another drop in the ocean
Ocean

Watch the fingers close
When the hands are cold

Am I the happy loss
Will I still recoil
When the skin is lost
Am I the worthy cross
Will I still be soiled
When the dirt is off

Am I the happy loss
Will I still be soiled
When the dirt is off

A lot of negativity in these comments. I think it sounds good. Time goes on and people age, get over it. Still an incredibly cool band.

Best song ever, the crowd are sleeping . If that was the Barrowlands in Glasgow the roof would be shaking . We love them 💛💛💛

It's one of the greatest songs of the 80s and indie classic. Saw him the other night at kelvingrove stonking performance by Big Mac

Great song, great performance. This song is 40 years old and their songs still sound great. Will Sergeant is a brilliant guitarist.

some of the best 80's lyrics written . and to be able to belt them out like this without missing a beat 30 years later is awesome.

I'd like to see anyone else 'conquer' this song other than Ian!! Can't be done. It's a serious demanding vocal to start!

HOLY CRAP....that band....THAT a super performance to an almost DEAD crowd (if i could only smell that place...maybe ALL WERE SO STONED(?) !

Some Echo And The Bunnymen totally blurred, without strength, without life...without anything...What a shame....

Sometimes I just want to unhear things and this is one of those occasions a shadow of their former selves..

one of the most stunning songs of the last 30 years killed by its own fathers...time to give it a rest lads..

To be fair to the band: The mix on this is terrible, it seems the sound was taken direct from the desk and the voice is far too loud compared to the instruments. Also, keyboard is missing (which they could've used for atmosphere and to play the middle eastern influenced lead instead of the guitar). Compare this performance with "Lips like sugar" on Later with Jools or their recent concert in Manchester (mid last yr) and you'll be able to tell they still have it.
