Business Part 1

from Business by Perhaps Contraption

/
  • Limited Edition CDR in Bespoke Latex Case/Instant Download
    Compact Disc (CD) + Digital Album

    Business is available as a numbered, hand stamped CDR, housed in bizarre, bespoke latex packaging.

    Each copy is lovingly crafted & designed by members of the band & Am Statik Latex. The innovative 3 panel yellow rubber design has a transparent window and is secured by a metal popper.

    It comes complete with a signed and numbered twelve panel poster print of the original Business artwork.

    To view the construction of this wobbling musical oddity please see our blog post:

    The high price is due to the very long process and expensive materials it takes to create such a thing. Perhaps Contraption receive a minimal revenue from each sale.

    To be frank, it's an absurd business model (pardon the pun) but we made it because, we just had to, and thought it would be an interesting thing to do. We hope you like it.

    The package also includes an immediate download of 12-track album in your choice of 320k mp3, FLAC, or just about any other format you could possibly desire.

lyrics

Please come in it's quite safe.
I'm sorry about the mess.
(It's very messy in here)
Your semi-quavers slither just like your skull.
But as long as we're making weapons and ordnance
we're all having fun.

I'm not, I'm not, cut out for this business.
I'm not, I'm not, cut out for this.

Join our Club
(We'll boil your hands)
Join our Club
(We'll burst your blister)
Join our Club
(We'll break your legs)

And you signed on the dotted line.
We'll provide the pen of course.
And then your bum is mine.
And give back the pen of course.

Honesty is the best policy.

I love the way, you colour coded your dress.
It matches those shiny landmines inside your head.
Please make yourself and help yourself at home,
And, be, careful not to break your skull.

THIS IS THE SOUND OF YOU BREAKING YOUR SKULL

JOIN OUR CLUB
(we'll boil your hands)
JOIN OUR CLUB
(burst your blister)
JOIN OUR CLUB
(we'll break your legs)

And you signed on the dotted line.
We'll provide the money of course.
and then your art is mine.
And give back the money of course.

(Im not cut out for this business)
