    CD Copies of A Brick Over Troubled Mortar have been sold out for over a decade... UNTIL NOW. Own the album that started it all on CD (if you want to, for some reason)! Almost indistinguishable from the original (if you ignore the obvious differences)! Featuring absolutely no new bonus tracks! Lovingly hand-crafted! Limited edition because we only bought one box of CD-Rs! Would really annoy our record label if we had one!

lyrics

I suppose you can't help it really, you're just no good heathen scum,
And all your beliefs are just a load of superstition
That you learned from your barmy old mum.
You think you see it all so clearly, you think you've got it all worked out,
But all of your religion's just a load of mumbo-jumbo. cos Asgard's what it's about!

CHORUS
We got Law Gods, we got War Gods,
We got knock you down to the floor Gods.
And all you got is a bunch of nancy boys!

My God's better than Your God,
and My God's bigger than Yours.
My God's coming round Your God's heaven,
To show Your Gods what for.
My God does better rituals,
and My God give better spells.
and My God doesn't like hanging out with Your God,
'cos Your God smells.....

Some of you worship the sunrise, and get your kicks hugging trees,
But you're just a bunch of hippy soap-dodgers, with tie-died curtains and fleas,
Some people's Gods have got feathers, and some people's Gods have got fur,
But the Norscan Gods are all proper-shaped people, not food that you have to call "Sir".

What's the use of worshipping a spider, except to keep your temples clear of flies,
And who wants to pray to a gang of three women, or a bald bloke who ate all the pies?
We've got a bloke with a bloody great hammer, we've got a bloke with a bloody great spear,
And when we've died, we get a free ride from a hot chick in combat gear!
