Stitch That!

Note on Stitch That!: the lyrics are partly nicked from a traditional song reinterpreted by martin carthy on an album i forget the name of - it's a lovely song. the reason it's on shhh in particular is because we were adamant that we use the 'stolen' drumbeat and intro from the beatles 'sgt pepper'; seemed appropriate at the time because ringo starr was infamous for a short time as a drunken wife-hitter. we recreated paul mccartney's stamping footsteps as well. sad as we are. the imitated loop was the 'theft' issue for having it on the album as an adendum. the words were hurriedly sung in two takes and it was only later we turned it into a real song to play live. lou was probably fixing a car the day we originally recorded it, or something... it was also martin carthy who mainly inspired the version of 'new york mining disaster'.

So this husband came home drunk each night
And he thrashed her black and he thrashed her white
He thrashed her to within an inch of her life
Then he slept like a log, did her husband
But as he lay and snored in bed
A strange idea came into her head
So she went for the needle and she went for the thread
And straight to her sleeping husband
She started to stitch with a girlish thrill
With a woman's art and a seamstress' skill
She pinned and tucked with an iron will
All around her sleeping husband
When her husband awoke with a pain in his head
He found he could not move in bed
'Sweet Christ I've lost the use of me legs!'
But the wife just smiled at her husband
Then she thrashed him black, she thrashed him blue
With a frying pan and a colander, too
With a rolling pin just a stroke or two
A battered and bleeding husband
Isn't it true what small can do
With a thread and a stitch and a thought or two
He's wiped his slate, his boozing's through
Goodbye to a drunken husband
Kick out the jams, motherfucker!
Shhh
