lyrics

My poor brain won’t eat this time
With a little bit of smile and an uncommittal try
To wake up, stay present and speak
But the melodies playing won’t let me think
Straight to the main course, ‘cause they won’t shut up
And I pour my sorry from the bottle to the cup
So we drink and we talk but I’m deaf to the source
I’m a ghost in this house and it’s part of the curse

Scream my name, I won’t hear it
Reset and start again
I’ll scream the words, I can’t listen
To the message contained
Scream my fucking name, I won’t hear it
Reset, just start again
I’ll scream the words, I can’t listen
I don’t think that I’m OK

My poor feet won’t move in time
With a little way left, and a brain not right
You tell me, I don’t seem OK
And you see inside I’m only afraid
Count three to the floor, you were right when I swore
In the middle of a break, and a little bit raw
I promise I’ll listen sometimes
If the melodies playing will let me try

Scream my name, I won’t hear it
Reset and start again
I’ll scream the words, I can’t listen
To the message contained
Scream my fucking name, I won’t hear it
Reset, just start again
I’ll scream the words, I can’t listen
I don’t think that I’m OK

Listen. Sometimes I wish I’d never started discussing
All the things that left me far from being fixed
I spend my waking hours hoping anything
And me could coexist

Scream my name, I won’t hear it
Reset and start again
I’ll scream the words, I can’t listen
To the message contained
Scream my fucking name, I won’t hear it
Reset, just start again
I’ll scream the words, I can’t listen
I don’t think that I’m OK

about

Call Me Malcolm England, UK

Razor-toothed, harmony infused, delicately ferocious ska. British 5-piece Call Me Malcolm exploded onto the Ska Punk scene in 2018 with a record described by ska legends Less Than Jake as "a saving grace of the genre." Malcolm's genre blending mastery and intricate songwriting has since crafted “some of the most special, unique, ambitious music in the punk underground.” (BrooklynVegan) ... more
