Athlete : Vehicles And Animals
Less-than-athletic Britpop revival (more manners, less fighting)
Sometimes a Brit band come along in a torrent of hyperbole that you just can't fathom when the record emerges unadorned by the word-of-mouth platitudes lathered upon it by industry insiders and suckerfish sycophants. As is the case with South London's Athlete , a band who single-handedly revive twenty-something bland-lad from his nineties slumber, zip up his Duffer and send him out...

Athlete - Vehicles & Animals Lyrics
Athlete - You Got The Style Lyrics
Oh no, gone and put my foot in it again
Think back I can't believe that it was me who said that
Last time I promised I'd bite my tongue until I counted to ten
(Five six and seven and eight and nine and ten)
Athlete - Le Casio Lyrics
Give it up another time, never meant to overstep the line
Skip across to Mexico to get away from all you know
Give it up another time, never meant to overstep the line
Athlete - You Know Lyrics
You are loved and you know you are
Yeah, you know you know you know you are
And you know you know you know you are
Athlete - Dungeness Lyrics
I found a rope and a rubber glove
You found some pretty stones and they had holes
So you could tie them together
Tie them together, tie them together
Athlete - Out Of Nowhere Lyrics
Seven out a twenty one knocked down now only fourteen left to go
I didn't know that I was next in line but it is not as if I had much time
Jet black all around me voices calling saying, "Please don't go away"
Last thing I remember drifting down this tunnel was bright light ahead
Athlete - Vehicles & Animals Lyrics
It's the simple things like the robots Stevie G draws
And the ease with which we seem to pull those tricks
There are moments of escape for every one of us
And the beauty in the times that we create
Athlete - New Project Lyrics
There's a house at the end of the road
It's got no windows
And it's hard to see what is going on in there
Athlete - Beautiful Lyrics
Bringing in the new sound
Make it in, oh, please make it in
Oh, I have been missin'
Fill me in, please fill me in
Athlete - Shake Those Windows Lyrics
Lives in Edinburgh an' just across the road
Sometimes my stereo and in my aching bones
It's on the sugar hill and in your ring tone
Athlete - One Million Lyrics
There was just one at the top of a pile of one million
And she hasn't got a clue that she's become a good Samaritan
I missed her name, before I blink from the scene she'd run away
If I got the chance to meet her once again
Athlete - Westside Lyrics
All the energetic people they all sparkle
As they're walking down the street
Can't see their faces but I've noticed
They seem to have big hands
Athlete - El Salvador Lyrics
It's time to tear this place down
I've got the last gig on my mind
Not seen my friends in ages
Have I been left behind?
Athlete - A Few Differences Lyrics
Youâre not the only one
I donât want to give myself away
(Youâre not the only one)
