All is Vanity

An instrumental that developed just as I was finishing 'Boobies'...

The title came from last February in India when, sitting on the roof of an old haveli, I'd watched a monkey steal a mirror from a neighbouring house and spend ages sitting admiring itself. The phrase came to mind then, and curiously I later flipped open a bible in a hotel room straight to Ecclesiastes 1 where the quote comes from... spooky, huh?
