    Lyrics:
    Exhibit F, the reporters said
    Loved you to death after the watershed
    Between the Open University and closedown
    You were dead
    He's warmed your cockles with his magic tricks
    Glasses, bottles, bottles, filter tips
    John Player Special
    Number 666
    Exhibit G from the family firm
    His bride to be taking twisted turns
    To give you French kisses
    And Chinese burns
    You see, she'd had a skinful and she couldn't stop
    Like a pitbull in a china shop
    And all the King's social workers, the ghurkas and the cops
    Somehow
    Couldn't love you back to life again now
    A black eye for a black eye
    A chipped tooth for a chipped tooth
    A fraction of a half life
    Some housework and some home truths
    And nothing but the home truth
    Nothing but the home truth
    Nothing but the home truth
    And it's goodbye Ruby Tuesday
    Come home you silly cow
    We've baked a cake and your friends are waiting
    And David Icke says he'd like to show us how
    To love you back to life again now
    Goodbye Ruby Tuesday
    Come home you silly cow
    We've baked a cake and your friends are waiting... waiting... waiting...
    AND DAVID ICKE SAYS!
    Goodbye Ruby Tuesday
    Come home you silly cow
    We've baked a cake and your friends are waiting
    And David Icke says
    Goodbye, you silly cow
    Come home
    Come home
    Come home
    Come home
    A black eye for a black eye
    A chipped tooth for a chipped tooth
    A fraction of a half life
    Some housework and some home truths
    And nothing but the home truth
    Nothing but the home truth
    Nothing but the home truth

    My introduction to Carter was when my friend bought some CD of some band but the wrong CD was in the case. He got the Sheriff Fatman CD single by mistake and the rest is history. Got to see them live through the 90s and flew from Ireland to the final show in Brixton. Amazing

    I was born in 72 & there was so much going on from about 88 to 96 it was truly magical. The early 90's were really an exceptionally special time in musical history and I feel absolutely blessed to have been part of it all, and I partied like there was no tomorrow :-)

      Yeah, had the same intentions, however nothing was going to stop me from losing the plot, my sanity and most of my long and short term memories of the next 25 years out of my head! The 90s was a proper sketchy time! The kids nowadays have no idea how different it is compared to back then. And the music now, compared to then, is terrible!! Obviously, that's why we're here listening to Carter! 30 years on and Carter are still Numbah One!! Haha. Did you hear any of Jimbobs solo stuff? Dudes got some serious talent man. As a writer, he second to none.

    • @readysetsleep
      @readysetsleep Před 3 lety +1

      Here you go...
      The band’s single “After The Watershed (Early Learning The Hard Way),” a song about child abuse, was pulled off the airwaves after the Rolling Stones slapped an injunction on the tune for using lyrics from the Stone’s song, “Goodbye Ruby Tuesday.” Later, Carter USM reached a settlement with the Stones and now credit the song to Morrison, Carter, Jagger, Richards, and Bet Lynch.
