We got in some trouble. The trouble was good.
Pissed off the children the best that we could.
But life is a killing machine and life always wins.
I’m the last standing witness to the sin we got in.
Let’s get specific ‘bout what life should be.
Exactly what hath God rendered opposite me?
‘Cause once you get rollin’ who’s got time for amends?
We could argue like enemies or get fucked up like friends.
I am not complaining…
But like Napoleon asked the Marquis De Sade, “Will it ever stop raining?”
And the goddam Buddha sits silently, she’s heard it before.
Another song, another poem, another friend who is not afraid anymore.
Napoleon didn’t said anything like that! Who is not afraid anymore?
There’s no such thing as a bad friend who is not afraid anymore.
Who is not afraid? Who is not afraid anymore?.
Who is not afraid? Who is not afraid anymore?
The trouble was good. Who? Who is not afraid anymore?
The trouble was good. Who is not afraid? Who is not afraid anymore?
The trouble was good. The trouble was good. Who is not afraid?
The trouble was good.

Another stellar release from this long-lived ensemble. Though the King Crimson influence is obvious & that comparison unavoidable, these guys have made many great recordings that can't be categorized as 'mere copies'. The perfect balance of aggressive riffing and serene soundscapes. Stephen Roberts

John Drumbo French from Captain Beefheart and The Magic Band worked with Thompson on two albums along with Fred Frith and Henry Kaiser.
Those two French, Frith, Kaiser and Thompson albums led me to this.
Also, Richard Thompson taught Hugh Cornwell (of The Stranglers) how to play the bass guitar in a band when they were both at the same school (Emil and The Detectives?).
With a career spanning 50 years and playing with two of my heroes (French and Cornwell) Thompson has produced a fascinating EP. yellowcakeuf6
