	作词 : Currie
	Come all ye rounders if you want to hear the tale
	Of a tape recorder man
	He travelled far and wide through the dusty countryside
	The tape recorder man
	Collecting songs of love, collecting songs of blood
	Sometimes songs of evil men and sometimes songs of good
	And sing irie aritty ardie and sing irie arrity anne
	He said the age of the machine would make us all the same
	The tape recorder man
	And we should tape record the songs the old men sing
	The tape recorder man
	Because when the old were gone, there'd be no more songs
	Just mechanical din
	And sing irie aritty ardie and sing irie arrity anne
	At a music festival he presented to the world some of the folk greats
	Then, with a condescending smile, he introduced us all to some electronic fakes
	Saying 'The old folks don't need gimmicks to make the music new
	But here's a group of college kids who apparently do'
	And sing irie aritty ardie and sing irie arrity anne
	And he left the stage to seek some nerdy boffin geeks who sounded like the Pogues
	Singing like the BeeGees, dancing like freaks, playing modular Moogs
	I met him in the dressing room at the end of the show
	I said you used to be my hero but tonight you've fallen low
	And sing irie aritty ardie and sing irie arrity anne
	I said tape recorder man damn your Memorex
	What about innovation, man, what about art and sex?
	He couldn't share my point of view, and he freely said so
	So me and the tape recorder man quickly came to blows
	I hit out at his shoulder where his tape recorder hung
	It slipped to the floor with a crash, the strap must've been undone
	And sing irie aritty ardie and sing irie arrity anne
	It exploded like a bomb from the first world war
	And seven spools of folk recordings rolled across the floor
	A random burst of yodelling rubbed up against the heads
	That woozy crazy spool was like John Cage or Varese
	I cried 'Tape recorder man, this I won't forget
	This is folk music... concrete!'
	And sing irie aritty ardie and sing irie arrity anne
