Power Failure

Brooker / Reid

Album: Broken Barricades 1971	Picture sleeve:
Taking Notes and Stealing Quotes on this song	Cover-versions: yes

Words by
Keith Reid

Climbing out of open windows
Crashing down from broken stairs
Keeping watch on smoking cinders
Falling over burning chairs

Tossed and crossed and screwed in transit
broken , splintered, bruised and thrown
Badly shattered, gale force frighty
Rushed across and shown alone

Speech reduced by poor relations
Strung from weeks of self abuse
Chopped up, churned out weeks of greazy
Spark plugs burned up, power's fused
