What do you call a thing
That likes to eat strings
Bites the head off a tiger
He also eats spiders
Hates to hear the Eagles
He prefers synthesizers
Boy
We call it Boy
Though it might be a girl
We call it Boy
When he comes in from the rain
He wears the stars
He comes from Mars
Staring at me with his nixie-tube eyes
Calculating, counting down till he flies
We won't be surprised
His purr rolls like thunder across the sky
He flies his disco-box through time
Boy
We call it Boy
Though it might be a girl
We call it Boy
When he comes in from the rain
He wears the stars
He comes from Mars
Boy
We call it Boy
Though it might be a girl
We call it Boy
When he comes in from the rain
He wears the stars
He comes from Mars
He hates guitars
He likes Lars
He wants to go far
In your cars
Boy
Come here boy
Boy
B-b-b-b-b-boy
We call it Boy
Though it might be a girl
We call it Boy
When he comes in from the rain
He wears the stars
He comes from Mars...

While you were sleeping
You have been moving
Though you can't see it
Everything's passing
Lost in this snowstorm
The things you are hearing
The things you are seeing
Are seeping right through you
You've made a cage for yourself and swallowed the key
If I cut you open would you
Come with me?
Let the things we built fall down
Burn everything before now
We'll go silent 'cross the sea
You could have slipped right through this light
I've still got scratchmarks on my hand
Where you made your final stand
While you were sleeping
You have been moving
Though you can't see it
Everything's passing
Lost in this snowstorm
The things you are hearing
The things you are seeing
Are seeping right through you
You've made a cage for yourself and swallowed the key
If I cut you open would you
Come with me?
Let the things we built fall down
Burn everything before now

You're better off inside
You don't have to be mine
Better say goodbye
Can't keep killing the time
Feels like you're so close
In next door's dimension
In the same room
And worlds apart
You're never too far
Never too far
Never too far
Never too far
Never too far
Since you first played under my stairs
I knew I'd find you everywhere
You gave me a lock of your hair
You stole my underwear
Can't go on without you
So I pretend
That you're still there
Watching me through
A window pane
It's still the same
Can't go on without you
So I pretend
That you're still there
Watching me through
A window pane
It's still the same
Can't go on without you
So I pretend
That you're still there
Watching me through
A window pane
It's still the same

It Hertz! Deluxe Edition
by Katsen
supported by 21 fans who also own “The Black Cat EP”
Found KATSEN when looking into electronica\lowfi while working on my own. I quite loved what I'd heard, but unfortunately not in time to catch any physical material. Tried on Bandcamp, and lo! there's Katsen! Love this kind of music, slightly reminiscent of Men WIthout Hats and Simple Minds' REEL TO REEL CACOPHONY/EMPIRES AND DANCE era to me. This is a great collection, and glad to find Play For Today and others as bonus tracks! This is great.

Another brilliant E.P, such great music. 'Everybody Knows' is a fantastic song but each track is awesome in it's own different way.
