about

In memory of midnight drives to Lavender Bay, to see if Brett could be spied in his turret with candle burning low.
A nod to Ed K's Laughing Clowns and his Ghost Of An Ideal Wife...

lyrics

Brett was gazing out upon the pouring rain
sitting in his turret down in Lavender Bay, well
thinks about the death of the American Dream
all those burnt out junkies in the Chelsea scene, well
who can hear the Alchemy sound?
ooh, can it be found?
Dire Straits were looking for a cover that day
Brett, he's drinking coffee, Tropicana Cafe, well
it could be a Redhead in the afterglow
the gallery, the vultures at the opening show, oh no!
who can hear the Alchemy sound?
ooh, can it be found?
Brett, he's sending postcards from the afterlife
written to the Ghost Of An Ideal Wife
it could be the lonely sound, a falling tree
but I can tell you nothing is the way that it seems
I can tell you nothing is the way that it seems
nothing nothing nothing nothing
who can hear the Alchemy sound?
ooh, can it be found?
