Robin Proper-Sheppard’s musical response to the sudden death of fellow God Machine founder and bass-player Jimmy Fernandez. The title reference the fact that Robin and Jimmy both used to work at London’s Camden Market.
I walk across the road
And the duke opens his door
I've got to get away from what I know
I take a seat by an open window
I turn when I hear someone say
"it can go both ways"
I finish my drink and reach for my coat
I say goodbye to some people
That I think I know
I step into the street
The rain feels nice in this heat
I say I'm sorry as I reach for the lights
There's nothing like a long walk on a rainy night
There's nothing like a long walk on a rainy night
I take some advice from a man in death intercepted
He said "take some time
Don't let the small things pass by"
But still I cover myself in the presence
Of a body that's lifeless
I say I'm sorry as I reach for the lights
No I'll never let you see me undress
Oh the death of a salesman
