Martin's notes: The lyrics to Thinking Of Ways makes me realise that I haven't changed much over the last ten years. It's also very beautiful. I love the harmonies, I always miss those bits. The guitars at the end bother me, I think they always have but I should have at least got 'em in tune. I was trying to get the sound a firework would make if it were a guitar. I like the 'Go Giles' bit, that wasn't on the demo. We used to get the musicians in and show them what we had come up with and then leave the rest to them. Tim and I both had a crush on Lyndsay the cellist because she was older and posh. I had been to a party with Adam Franklin under some railway bridge in Kentish Town, I think he'd wanted to go on but I had to go home 'cos I was spannered. He dropped me at the bottom of Chetwynd Road 'cos I said I could find the house from there. I did the demo that night. My favourite one so far.
Lyrics: Just drop me here I can find my way clear back to my house. I'm finding it hard trying to stay on my feet on my own. I'm thinking of ways I can get out of things just like always. With a head full of beer I will try and tell someone tonight. I gotta get away, step on the gas go Giles! I'll just have one more then I'll have to be going, someone's waiting. I'll just have one more, it can't do any harm anymore. I'm thinking of ways I can get out of things just like always. With a head full of beer I will try and tell someone tonight.
