Dédié au guitariste-chanteur des Buzzcocks, avec moult clins d'œil à leurs textes.
(Le jour où Pete Shelley mourut, je rêvais dans ma cuisine d'un autre genre de musique avec un autre genre de tension... La vie n'est qu'une idylle sarcastique. L'amour n'est que lucre ou perte. Les rythmes scandent une peine contrariante. Les cœurs se brisent jusqu'à leur arrêt.)
The day Pete Shelley died, I was dreaming in my kitchen
Of another kind of music with a different kind of tension
The day Pete Shelley died, electricity was in the air
I saw no angels in the sky, they must have been crying somewhere
Life's just a sarcastic romance
Love is nothing but lust or loss
Beats pulse an annoying sentence
Hearts are broken until their stop
The day Pete Shelley died, was it fiction or affliction
I thought I was sixteen again, filled with anger and frustration
The day Pete Shelley died, the day he escaped from the real world
I needed love, I needed noise, I needed drink and I needed drug
Pete Shelley
Pete Shelley
