The Orange Cardigan - Cassette Tape Recordings 1979-1982

The Electrocutioner's Assistant

I keep the cables clear, I fasten the straps
I dust down the machines, I carry out the collapsed man

I am the electrocutioner's assistant
I stand by the electric chair holding the wire
Keeping my eye on the voltage, holding the wire
I am the electrocutioner's assistant
I am the electrocutioner's assistant

I hand him his last cigarette, I dim the lights
I tie the blindfold, I have to watch –I mean it's my job

I am the electrocutioner's assistant
I stand by the electric chair holding the wire
Keeping my eye on the voltage, holding the wire
I am the electrocutioner's assistant
I am the electrocutioner's assistant

I can still hear the echoes, I can still hear the screams
I can still feel fear and the grip marks on the chair

I am the electrocutioner's assistant
I stand by the electric chair holding the wire
Keeping my eye on the voltage, holding the wire
I am the electrocutioner's assistant
I am the electrocutioner's assistant
I am the electrocutioner's assistant
I am the electrocutioner's assistant
