Artist picture
Low-fi acoustic indie psychedelic folk motown music for your fragile mind.
The Wheelies are in trouble. They cant play their instruments properly. They are so wasted they are incapable of operating even the most basic recording equipment. They are too paranoid to play live. They cant find a Ringo that fits. Their singer keeps jumping out of trees in his pants and quitting the band. Their lead guitarist has developed a phobia of guitars. Their bassist is incapacitated with a serious case of sand in his eye. Moppy is possessed and lost in transit. They have a band member who doesnt even know he is a band member. Bob Dylan wont return their phone calls. In a nutshell, they are totally fucked. All thats left for you to do is sook the bools, find a comfortable position far enough away from the fall-out zone, and listen while the whole thing falls spectacularly to pieces.

Story behind the song
Originally written for "Simple Songs For Complicated People" (1997), locked away in a sunny room for 20 days, this is a respun version of the Wheelies' finest LSD-driven track.
Lyrics
You don't need The Beatles you don't need The Stones You don't need to see a thing you're shown You don't need sense to drag you down Laugh it off when you're left hanging around What you do it must be done You can stumble through the sun With a mind that's made of fire You don't need to go any higher Oh in the morning you are a star You don't need to know who you are You don't need death to feel alive You can hold up the moon but who will hold up the sky? You don't need love to bring you down You don't need to be lost to be found And you don't need you like you don't need me When all of this is like a dream Well it's better out than in You don't have to end if you never begin In the morning you are a sun You can close your eyes let the colours run When the world just breaks your heart You don't need to fall apart You don't need hands to hold the wheel You don't need to know what you should feel You are a star
