Lyrics Walking down what seemed like, Sesame St. A little Bert and Ernie came up to me. He said “Hello there young man. Have you got-a-minute for me?" I'd like to talk to you, about the B M P (British Muppet Party) So I just laughed, “HA-HA-HAH!” in his face. Heheee. No BMP. Just BFC. In DNA. They said. “Alright then….WHAT COLOUR ARE YOU!!?” So I grabbed my scarf and shouted back “NOT ONE, BUT TWO!” Chorus I’m whi-te and Tangerine! I’m whi-te and Tangerine! I’m whi-te and Tangerine! With my Silver tongue in my cheek! Lets take the “anger” from T(anger)ine. And hope these Pearls of Wisdom set the "Oysters" free? Cos they are blind, no, they can’t see. The Gold on the Mile’s turned Tangerine. Chorus I’m alive and Tangerine! I’m alive and Tangerine! I’m alive and Tangerine! Bloomfield Tangerine! Sea-sea-sea-siders. Sing with me. For “Holloway’s Army” your lungs will bleed. If you doubt it and don’t believe I’m climbing Blackpool tower, so you hear me scream. Chorus I’m alive and Tangerine! I’m alive and Tangerine! I’m alive and Tangerine! A Phoenix of Tangerine! I’m alive and Tangerine! I’m alive and Tangerine! I’m alive and Tangerine! Like 1953.

about

The Sound of Superstring's Escape from the Future is the epitome of
"A Labour of Love" written and recorded 10 years ago, it has been in hard-drive Hell for almost as long, only rescued by sheer will, drive and a lot of heart. The recording of the B.F.C track "Alive and Tangerine" in mid 2015 was the fuel to allow the phoenix to fly...... Jesus man who's writing this shite? Anyhow, the point is, the band split years ago but remained firm and loyal friends, which is testament to the music on the album and the musicians that created it. So please, please, now that the album is free give it a life beyond the ledge, so that the time and effort, blood, sweat, tears and love, can live on in the ears of others. Thank you and enjoy. It now belongs to you. The most important members of the band....the audience.
