Along with some other bands who made it big in the 80s, Tears For Fears made some cracking experimental B sides. This one was from the breif period when Roland & Curt split.
One of two fine tracks on the flip side of "Break It Down Again", & written by Roland Orzabal (who had claimed the TFF name for his own) this track has more than a few echos of the Beatles


(Last Train to Norwich)
Yea summer days that blind your face
Will soon be dead and gone.
Better get it on,
Tuned to a day the babe against the world, yeah.

You took the best seat will you risk it,
When the chips were down.
Better make it long...
Schrödingers' cat is dead to the world.

You say your cat sees in the dark,
You criticize the play and isolate the box,
I always knew you were a scientist at heart.

Just as the breeze with speed and build,
You sat upon the fence.
Clucking like a chicken making perfect sense.

Pass that gun, hand me that knife,
Man's little monster has been brought back to life.

You say your cat sees in the dark,
You criticize the flow and isolate the box.
I always knew you were a scientist at heart,
I always knew you were...
