	Story Behind the Song like I said I wrote this after a stinking day at the job I was holding at the time - just one more day of soul destroying s*** in a long, long line. I had this little guitar riff together and George put this chilled out beat to it, and the Rat played this beautiful slide guitar with his Zippo lighter (so we called it Zippo). It used to be a bitch to get it right live, but when we did it was gorgeous. An' when we finally recorded it and Helen came in to sing over it, plus some cool desk work by Chris (check out that false ending!) it was just like !WOW!.... Even 2 years on this is still a great track... I left that job, and worked at Broken Brow full time.... you can read the story of our Tour at http://www.idris.freewire.co.uk Preacher John Lyrics V1: A piece of me died today A piece of me everyday, A piece of me died today, Just burned up anyway, CHORUS: Not quite over the edge yet, Not quite over the edge yet, Not quite over the edge yet, Short, short trip to paranoia, V2: Can't fight everyone, though i might wish to Can't fight everyone, even with goood reason CHORUS
