SOMETIMES
Read it young and so it spun
A web of madness on my screen
Expressions led me to a place
It’s not the world I’d intended to be in
Sometimes I feel like everyone knows
People believe in your lies
People believe in all our our lies
And who we are the Fates did ask
Can’t believe the sentence passed
Sometimes I feel like everyone knows
Sometimes I feel like everyone knows
People believe in your lies
People believe in all our lies
Read it young and so it spun
A web of madness on my screen
Expressions led me to a place
It’s not the world I’d intended to be in
Sometimes I feel like everyone knows
People believe in all our our lies
People believe in my lies
Sometimes… I feel like everyone knows
Sometimes… I feel like everyone knows
Sometimes… I feel like everyone knows
Sometimes… I feel like everyone knows

Fun Facts:
* Sometimes was one of the earliest Bastard Sons of Dennis songs.
* It first came to light in their sand dune sessions on Exmouth beach in the summer of 1994.
* Sometimes was first performed live by the duo at The Cavern in Exeter that same summer.
* In their one-off spontaneous 1998 session, the Bastard Sons of Dennis played Sometimes again, with Scott on balalaika and Yuri on bass.
* The song originally appeared on the 1992 Levitation album Need For Not, released by Rough Trade.
* Sometimes is called Resist on Levitation’s Need For Not album.
* Terry Bickers of the band Levitation and Q. Wim were at university together and collaborated on a number of musical delights, including this, in a band called Plastic Snatch.
* Plastic Snatch famously used the audio from the “Look after your plastic!” public information campaign, which was very well known at the time, to begin their shows.
* Yuri was completely unaware of the band Levitation.
* He created his own lead guitar parts independently, having never heard the original recording, until this track was about to be released.
* Mr Lijkkes always tells a short ad lib tale at the start of this song that is different every time.
* Usually it is a rather dark-humoured and grizzly tale about Spiderlings.
* This track was recorded before Yuri’s battered old guitar was repaired.
* The slight distortion you hear on his guitar is actually the way the instrument sounded, with an assortment of rattles at the nut end, rather than a recording level that was too hot.
