Guest-starring Mark E. Smith of the Fall, the music approximates Brix-era the Fall, and the title itself echoes Smith’s own song “How I Wrote Elastic Man” (itself about a creator’s desperate search for inspiration and problems dealing with success)
L
E, the possibilities
L, keep going on
Spell, no way out
L, not here, y'all
A, come a little closer
S, not there, dear
T, I, C and A
Break through those class barriers
And a glass barrier
Spell
Magazine
E, extra special
L, last chance
A, pre and post
S, check out of this life
T, take that
I, impossible
C and A, spell, L, magazine
New volcanic, volcanica
Break through those class barriers
And a glass barrier
