lyrics
Well he stands so tall in the hardware store, with a faraway look on his face
Looks around, like Doctor Emmett Brown, but you never know what he’s gonna buy
An old workbench, a monkey wrench, a torch and a bicycle chain
Word gets around, in this little town, that Roger’s inventing again
Yeah yeah. Uh-huh.
His shoes on the ground make a flip-flop sound, like the Chinaman in Cannery Row
And his shirt is spoiled, with dirt and oil, he’s forgotten more than we’ll ever know
Hornby railway set, an old football net, a vacuum hose he imported from Spain
You can see through the cracks, in his shed out back, that Roger’s inventing again
Yeah yeah. Uh-huh
But Roger’s never said a word, since his time machine failed
And he wanted to travel the world, but the ship he made out of pub ashtrays never sailed, so Roger’s inventing again.
He fixed my car so sweet, just the other week, so it doesn’t need any fuel
And look at Sue and Jim, going for a swim, in their waterproof swimming pool
There’s a man next door who’s never smiled before, now he’s laughing just like a drain
It’s been a ten year wait, but it sure feels great, to see Roger inventing again
Yeah-yeah. Uh-huh.
Everyone here’s got theory, but nobody here’s got a clue
And the only thing that we know for sure, is that we don’t know what he’s gonna do
Out in the street, all the people meet, all the men they wait in the rain
As do all the girls when they hear those words, Roger’s inventing again
Yeah yeah. Uh-huh.
We only discovered this great band from Boise, Idaho this year and have spent the last few months gleefully catching up on all their releases. You would be well advised to do the same. My Little Owl Records
Kirsty headlined our very first My Little Owl Presents... gig in Sheffield. She is breathtakingly talented and featured on the soundtrack of Danny Boyle's film Trance. My Little Owl Records
Helen is headlining our next My Little Owl presents... gig in Sheffield on November 16th 2013. She plays lovely, quirky, slightly jazzy, sometimes a bit folky pop songs. My Little Owl Records

This might be my favorite thing Daniel has ever recorded. I shared the story part with my children, who also absolutely loved it. The songs are great too. alex79uk
Melvins fans will flip for this lost ’90s indie classic, with its sludgy guitars, hypnotic rhythms and irresistible hooks. Essential. Bandcamp New & Notable Jun 13, 2020
