lyrics
Well who stretched the elephant's legs
I’ll bet it was you, Solve It All Daily
Taught them to walk through the streets
on stilted gray limbs like Barnum and Bailey
Yeah you pulled a trick with the tigers too
Now no one can keep them in the zoo
Why do you do what you do when you do what you do
Solve It All Daily
Well who turned Narcissus to stone
Fishes to phones that always call me
Who melted all the town clocks, and hung them on rocks and limbs by the blue sea
Who put those drawers in your sister’s chest
Had to re-tailor her favorite dress
Why do you make normal such a mess
What are you up to
Solve It All Daily
Solve It All Daily
Well maybe behind that mustachioed mask a black hole
Sucking everything in, making rules, lose control
Deconstructing dogmatic distractions that rule our reason
Back to molecular dances and music of spheres
That our ears used to hear before fig leaves and fear
Made us deaf dumb and blind to the beauty that really matters
Oh
Ohhhhhhhhh
Well who turned Mae West to a living room
Who elongated Mom's favorite spoon
Why are your paintings so out of tune or is that the Wang Chung?
Geopolitical child out by the wild globe on the prairie
Watching the birth of new man in the new land, oh it's pretty scary
He’s in a world trapped by its points of view
And you always said true may not be true
Yeah we read it all in the Dali News monarch of dailies
Solve it all
Solve it all..daily
Yeah what great adventures will future hold
Once we have all learned to break the mold
Teach us your passionate whiskery whimsical ways
To solve it all daily
Solve It All Daily
Solve It All Daily
Solve it all....
I’ll bet it was you, Solve It All Daily
Taught them to walk through the streets
on stilted gray limbs like Barnum and Bailey
Yeah you pulled a trick with the tigers too
Now no one can keep them in the zoo
Why do you do what you do when you do what you do
Solve It All Daily
Well who turned Narcissus to stone
Fishes to phones that always call me
Who melted all the town clocks, and hung them on rocks and limbs by the blue sea
Who put those drawers in your sister’s chest
Had to re-tailor her favorite dress
Why do you make normal such a mess
What are you up to
Solve It All Daily
Solve It All Daily
Well maybe behind that mustachioed mask a black hole
Sucking everything in, making rules, lose control
Deconstructing dogmatic distractions that rule our reason
Back to molecular dances and music of spheres
That our ears used to hear before fig leaves and fear
Made us deaf dumb and blind to the beauty that really matters
Oh
Ohhhhhhhhh
Well who turned Mae West to a living room
Who elongated Mom's favorite spoon
Why are your paintings so out of tune or is that the Wang Chung?
Geopolitical child out by the wild globe on the prairie
Watching the birth of new man in the new land, oh it's pretty scary
He’s in a world trapped by its points of view
And you always said true may not be true

Serpent's Tears
by Richard Thompsonsupported by 11 fans who also own “Solve It All Dālí”
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.

Bloody Noses EP
by Richard Thompsonsupported by 11 fans who also own “Solve It All Dālí”
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.
