about

A re-interpretation of the Screamers' I Am A Mensch. originally released at greater length on the Necessary Effect compilation.

I think we used seven different synthesizers on this between the two sessions. Basically we were leaning on them with elbows each time by the end.

lyrics

Stop the beat!
Stop!

I am a mensch!
I am a mensch!

I only dance when I wanna dance,
to the sound of a distant drum.

I am a mensch.
I am a mensch.

I step out of line.
I step out of line.
You follow the beat,
I dance against it.

Cause I am a mensch.

I am a mensch.
I am a mensch.

I will call you later lover
a smack you on the lips kisser
I'm a difficult customer

You follow the beat,
I dance against it.

Living a dreaming,
dying a screaming.

The mensch is me!'
The mensch is me!

I am a mensch!
