Carter USM - Sheriff Fatman Live at the Brixton Academy 1991 video free download

Two things about Sheriff Fatman. First. They DON'T sing the words "more anuses than Klaus Barbie".

Secondly, at the end of the song on this clip, Mssrs Morrison and Carter go off on a riffola spree. But it is NOT the riff to Down Down by Status Quo as much as it sounds like it. The fact you can sing "down down deeper and down" to it don't enter into it. It's a dead argument. It has ceased to be. It was improv. Okay?

This is Les Fruitbat Carter and Jim Bob Morrison.... otherwise known as Carter The Unstoppable Sex Machine playing for many their signature song, Sheriff Fatman at their Brixton Academy 1991 gig.

All the fans worth anything have the actions down to this one.

This is official (non mobile phone their weren't any then, or if they were they were too big and incapable of taking footage) footage of the gruesome twosome in their heyday.

Starting off as Jamie Wednesday... they made their name with a distinctive style of power pop, fusing samples, sequenced basses and drum machines with rock 'n' roll guitars and off-beat wordplay-loaded lyrics. They reached the height of their fame in 1991 and 92. Over the following years the band took on new members, topping out as a six-piece, but struggled to regain their earlier popularity. They initially split up in 1998 after releasing seven albums.

They have come together for one off gigs, the last being sell out gigs in London in November 2009, titled "The Drum Machine Years". Over the course of two nights the band played their first four albums in their entirety, plus encores.

Now the USMs are back for two concerts in November, 2011 at Brixton and Manchester, known as Norf and Sarf 2011. It'll be RUBBISH!

Now, Sheriff Fatman started out

In business, a granny farmer

He was infamous for fifteen minutes

And he appeared on Panorama

But then he somehow got himself on board

The Starship Enterprise Allowance Scheme

With a Prince of Wales award

For pushing Valium and amphetamines

Moving up on second base

Behind Nicholas Van Wotsisface

Six foot six and a hundred tons

The undisputed king of the slum

More aliases than Klaus Barbie

The master butcher of Leigh-on-Sea

Just about to take the stage

The one and only, hold the front page

Fatman's got something to sell

To the capital's homeless

At the Crossroads Hotel

For the no-fixed-aboders

Where you can live life in style

You can sleep in a closet

And if you flash him a smile

He'll take your teeth as deposit

There's bats in the belfry

The windows are jammed

The toilets ain't healthy

He don't give a damn

He chuckles and smiles

Laughs like a madman

Born again Rachman

Here comes Sheriff Fatman

With his Valium, amphetamines

His sick notes and his phony prescriptions

And just when you thought it was safe

To go back into the kitchen

Dead legs and cracked heads

Bunk-beds and breakfasts

Wake up you sleepy heads

Check this

Moving up on second base

Behind Nicholas Van Wotsisface

Six foot six and a hundred tons

The undisputed king of slum

More aliases than Klaus Barbie

The master butcher of Leigh-on-Sea

Just about to take the stage

The one and only, hold the front page

Moving up now to take the place

Of Nicholas Van Wotsisface

Six foot six and a hundred tons

The undisputed king of the slums

More aliases than Klaus Barbie

The master butcher of Leigh-on-Sea

In a hatchback from Notre Dame

The one and only Sheriff Fatman

There goes another left hook and now I'm losing my patience

Someone call up Roger Cook and the United Nations

He's buying up houses for the has beens and helpless

From Lands End to South end to Chelsea

There's bats in the belfry

The windows are jammed

The toilets ain't healthy

He don't give a damn

He just chuckles and smiles

Laughs like a madman

Ladies and gentlemen, I give you Sheriff Fatman

Sheriff Fatman, Sheriff Fatman, Sheriff Fatman, brainchumps
