I'm a BPMF Refugee,
I'm from Lebanon,
I work in Debenhams,
They keep me in the back so I don't see none of them,
And i contribute to the economy...

They call him the Flea of Tripoli,
He's trying to start a new band, right here in Aberdeen,
Working full time in the back, as a store room guy,
Keeping out the public eye, he's not a social butterfly,
Flamejaw pays his taxes, he's a law abiding citizen,
Got type 2 diabetes and needs prescriptions for his insulin,
It's all because his baselines are so god damn sweet,
You'll see him busking at the end of Union Street,
He's a BPMF Refugee,
from Lebanon,
He works in Debenhams,
They keep him in the back so he don't see non of them,
And he contributes to the economy...

Covid, Brexit, we'll never make an exit,
Machine gun bass guitar,
Flamejaw wrecks it,
He wanders through his neighborhood,
How did it come to this?
His wife is back in Lebanon, raising all his kids,
But he still supports his family, he's doing pretty great,
Gets credit from his manager for never being late,
Spends his days off laying low, listening to "Regulate",
And smoking the black hash with the kids on the estate.
He's a BPMF Refugee,
from Lebanon,
He works in Debenhams,
They keep him in the back so he don't see non of them,
And he contributes to the economy...

This Glasgow band is less straightforward or formulaic than many others currently treading the '80s post-punk path. These songs are winged. Bandcamp New & Notable Mar 22, 2017
