The Tumblers

Take from "Devil Between My Toes" 1987

"sleephouse - not a sound - the world outside large sky-
losing ground - no words inside
lost hope brings not the tired eyes
one mistake - two mistake
don't mistake your mistake for my mistake
house pet chasing birds across
the earth big ground fading now - scope, span, girth"

Scope, Span, Girth. The sign of things to come. An early GBV song with a very gentle vocal and a "tumbling" drumbeat. Very pleasant. The Sound of drifting off to sleep.
