Echo & the Bunnymen - Villiers Terrace download song

I've been up to villiers terrace To see what's a-happening There's people rolling 'round on the carpet Mixing up the medicine I've been up to villiers terrace I saw what's a-happening People rolling 'round on the carpet Biting wool and pulling string You said people rolled on carpet But i never thought they'd do those things I've been up to villiers terrace I've been in a daze for days I drank some of the medici-i-i-ine And i didn't like the taste I've been up to villiers terrace I've been in a daze for days People rolling 'round on your carpet Biting wool and pulling string You said people rolled on carpet But i never thought they'd do those things Been up to villiers terrace To see what's a-happening People rolling 'round on the carpet Passing 'round the medicine Been up to villiers terrace I saw what's a-happening There's people rolling 'round on my carpet Biting wool and pulling string You said people rolled on carpet, boys But i never thought they'd do those things Bopsie waddy waddy Shake your money (been down to villiers terrace. Bopsie waddy waddy Shake your money (been down to villiers terrace)... Bopsie waddy waddy Shake your money (been down to villiers terrace)... Bopsie waddy waddy Save your money (been down to villiers terrace)...

Live version from ALBERT HALL cd is pretty damn great!!!

Crocodiles is one of the finest albums released in 1980.

" I've been up to Bilious Terry's, to see what's a happenin'....there's people rolling round on the carpet, mixin' up the medicine..." Still prefer my version of the lyrics ;p

will never get a band like this again brilliant band

absolute masterpiece!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Haunting and thrilling

Saw these boys, in Liverpool, autumn 1980. Fantastic.

Nah, none of the radio stations in Southern California play this band on the radio. None that I know of at least. This song just reminds me of how plastic and fake life can be in Los Angeles. Hence the lyrics "you said people roll on carpet but I never thought they'd do those things." All in all I think this is a great song.

I have listened to this song no less than 30 times in the last two days. The entire Crocodiles album is a gem!

Heard this on John Peel. I wish the music scene was as exciting now as it was then. I don't mean they should still be playing punk (that's my generation's music and not for sharing!) but they could try being a bit more iconoclastic.

it says so much in a short space of time

can roll on my carpet, anytime.!

Do you all know Villiers Terrace was a pub in Liverpool city centre!!!!!!

When I'd hear this listening to the album I used to think he was singing 'Minas Tirith' and it was a song about Lord of th Rings hahaha

The first track they ever played on tv - Fun Factory - ITV - Saturday morning kids show
