about

Holes is partly about holes. More importantly it imagines a Blakean world where everything is connected and holy if only we can look beyond the logical and rational and let ourselves see, feel, hear, sing and play what is in front of our eyes. It is a vision and expression of the eternal that we must embrace like a 21st century, prog-rock version of ‘There’s a Hole in My Bucket’.

lyrics

The sun burns a hole in my roof which I sell to the government It’s a no-brainer says the herring as I pocket the cash The cash burns a hole in my pocket Which I sell on the Internet Maybe storage or memorabilia The price of a cigarette The cigarette burns a hole in my lips Which I sell to a dating agency For use as a prophylactic Against harder times Time burns a hole in my memory Which I sell to the highest bidder For a tapered trail of vapour Fading across the sky The sky burns a hole in my coat Which I sell to the Holy Ghost Squatting on the kitchen cabinet Like Nostradamus Nostradamus burns a hole in the bible Which I sell to the Mormons Who put it in a rocket And send it to the sun. For every absence there is an equal and opposite absence For every reason there is an equal and opposite reason For everything possible to be believed in is an image of truth The sun burns a hole in my roof
