Is the end something like:
If/as your skin begins to turn green
And your feet are half asleep
Call me bitter, call me a creep
I'm ashamed to hear you speak
Sale of the Century always been an odd one, no idea about the first verse but think the second is something like:
Paid a man
Who's never short of things to say
Squandered hours watching paint dry everyday
Paper thin
Got an ear of shedding skin
Saw you leave, didn't see you coming in

I think that is almost there, I hear it as 'Call me bitter, call me me weak'
The start maybe goes something like
I'm a god, I'm god, all the simple things are yours
I'm a god, I'm a god
Concrete in your veins x loads
You've got concrete in your veins
No idea on the chorus bit
Who where and when
Don't believe your friends
No idea

Vertigo line:
In banks, with no plans at all, cos you can't rob banks with your pockets so small.
Yes? No?

This is what I've always heard!
Does anyone have a clue what the Hydra lyrics are? I'm working on it but I'm really terrible at hearing lyrics properly.
Really loving this thread - listening to Sub-Lingual in the car at work and I keep saying to myself "OH! *That's* what it is!"

Hydra ... no idea at all, Matt was too good at writing/singing impenetrable lyrics. Hydra and new set of bruises are two of my favourite Cable songs and to this day (after endless plays) i have no idea what he's actually saying. Also, rather weirdly i can play Hydra on guitar but have never been able to work NSOB out. Don't know if its some weird tuning or my own poor musicianship but i simply cannot fathom whats happening guitar wise in that song
