lyrics

Wake at sunrise
black are my thoughts
Evil, my friend
wants to rend what you wrought
Not a day goes by
when i don't wish you would die

Vengeful feelins
comin on strong
You traded true love
for somethin so wrong
Not a day goes by
when i don't wish you would die

Round about midnight
black are my thoughts
i would do it myself
if i couldn't get caught
Cause not a day goes by
When i don't wish you would die
Not a day goes by
when i don't wish you would die

If demons are real
they be right over there
if wishes were poison
ah you better beware
cause not a day goes by
when i don't wish you would die
Not a day goes by
when i don't wish you would die

Scream bloody
Call on the cops
and think of me
while your temperature drops
Cause not a day goes by
when i don't wish you would die
Not a day goes by
when i don't wish you would die
Did you hear what i said?
I'll never rest til you're dead.

Bloody Noses EP
by Richard Thompson

supported by 7 fans who also own “Wish You Would Die”

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

Serpent's Tears
by Richard Thompson

supported by 6 fans who also own “Wish You Would Die”

There's a similarity in song writing between Richard Thompson and Hugh Cornwell which maybe isn't surprising as they went to the same school at the same time, although Thompson is older. Due to Thompson's association with John French of Captain Beefheart & The Magic Band I searched for his work on the Bandcamp app. French, Thompson and Cornwell all have albums on the app which I'm very pleased about. Only Thompson has released contemporary albums, much to his credit. yellowcakeuf6
