In the Guardian newspaper February 24, 2006, Karl Hyde said: "We used to go
out drinking
in Soho and I ended up in the Ship on Wardour Street. All the lyrics were
written on that
night. A drunk sees the world in fragments and I wanted to recreate that. I
was inspired
by Lou Reed's New York album and Sam Shepard's Motel Chronicles. I was into
flash photography
as well, so I was walking around Soho with a notebook and camera, just
observing things.
In those days I'd open the book whenever a musical idea inspired me. Rick
[Smith] came up with
a rhythm and I started singing over it. The vocals were done in one take.
When I lost my
place, I'd repeat the same line; that's why it goes, 'lager, lager, lager,
lager.'
The first time we played it live, people raised their lager cans and I was
horrified because
I was still deep into alcoholism. It was never meant to be a drinking anthem;
it was a cry for
help. Now I don't mind. Why Born Slippy? It was a greyhound we won money
on."
