lyrics

So you’ve fallen in love:
Though you’ve never met her in your life.
Chatrooms are just boss:
Getting jiggy via broadband
is just the latest way to wreck your life.
And you think you know them well:
though you’ve never seen a picture,
or heard a spoken word...

You need to turn on your sincerity machine
Add a reality check to everything you’ve seen
She says she’s got blonde hair
and movie starlet looks
But really she’s a he, a cross dressing,
aged east end ....

And do your parents know
of your plans to run away and elope
with an unseen chatroom beau?
You’ve been talking for a while,
but who’s playing who
in this minefield of online desire

You need to turn on your sincerity machine
Add a reality check to everything you’ve seen
She says she’s got blonde hair
and movie starlet looks
But really she’s a he, a cross dressing,
aged east end ....

You’ve got to - start again
Plugged in. Switched on. Firewired.
Networked. Jacked in. Turned on.

You need to turn on your sincerity machine
Add a reality check to everything you’ve seen
She says she’s got blonde hair
and movie starlet looks
But really she’s a he, a cross dressing,
aged east end ....

Kamakura Wales, UK

Nick Calvert started Kamakura as a one man project band.

It organically grew to a three piece with the addition of Mick Dorey (keys), Mark Wright (Guitar), and 'Dealing With Liquids' was recorded,

Kamakura's final iteration as a band was a five piece, with the addition of Nick Ward (Drums) and and Martin Haslam (Bass). They toured England, then split.

Now Nick continues the journey.
