Farewell
05:23
|
|||
tyre crunch on a gravel path
full beam on a blur of bats
reeling through the aftermath
of days and days gone by
gliding over moonless lawn
breaking through the great unknown…
they say pride comes before the fall
can't believe that it's all over
and we're leaving for good
we'll still wave across the water
but we're leaving
stairwell in a burning house
someone put the fire out
horses galloping about
the smoky oaky glade
farewell to the leaning tower
farewell to the church bell flowers
farewell to the fields of our friends
can't believe that it's all over
and we're leaving for good
we'll still wave across the water
but we're leaving, we're leaving
farewell to the thermal baths
farewell to the forest black
farewell to the winding paths
goodbye goodbye goodbye
farewell to the stony gate
farewell to the unmasked face
farewell to the state of grace
goodbye goodbye goodbye
farewell to the sinking tower
farewell to the church bell flowers
farewell to the fields of our friends...
(over and over until out)

Crimson Star
05:16
|

Those were the best days of my life
I was a singer in a band
aboard the first of the big cruise ships
Touring the seven planets and their moons
circling Trappist-1
I sampled all of life's rich delicacies
Hello crimson star
Nobody knows who we are
Nobody knows where we're going
Sunset never ends
I wish I could see you again
vanished with the aurora
I grew very lost exploring a forest
of towering translucent flowers
and inaudible music all around
I'd just about exhausted my oxygen supply
when I fell into a vision
We were naked...we were naked...
we were happy and young again
Over tarry seas
through meadows of verdant ruby
goes flapping the shape of a memory
Sunset never ends
I wish I could see you again
Vanished with the aurora
Open your heart and let sadness in
Open your heart and let sadness out
Hello crimson star
Nobody knows who we are
Nobody knows where we're going
Sunset never ends
I wish I could see you again
vanished with the aurora
Over tarry seas
through meadows of verdant ruby
goes flapping the shape of a memory
Sunset never ends
I wish I could see you again
Vanished with the aurora

Will you please make the Voder say for our Eastern listeners “Good evening, radio audience”
Good evening, radio audience
Analyse and synthesize the human voice
for audio data compression
multiplexing voice encryption
Good Evening, Radio Audience x 3
Demonstrate and oscillate impressions,
emotion and feelings
a cosmic language on the horizon
Good Evening, Radio Audience x 3
Utilize and realize vibrations
with electro-historical devices
the basis of all pain and pleasure
A spoken word is never lost x 3
It remains and vibrates x 10
And now, for our Western listeners, say “Good afternoon, radio audience”.
Good afternoon, radio audience

Space Golf

Take all your hate and all your fear with you and blast them into the blue
Building your walls to keep them out
Building your stash to wipe them out
You staked your claim on planets new
You built your ship and up you flew
Looking back on the world below
Safe from the damage and the woe
but you cannot play golf in space
Take all your hate and all your fear
Take all your hate and all your fear
Take all your hate and all your fear with you and blast them into the blue
Platinum club for psychopaths
Draining the tank with dirty maths
Plundering all to guild the few
You built your ships and up you flew
Infinity pool on Ganymede
You took so much more than you need
but you cannot play golf in space
Take all your hate and all your fear
Take all your hate and all your fear
Take all your hate and all your fear with you and blast them into the blue

Bomb the banks!
Shrink the economy
The economy is shrieking!
Leave your wallet
In your pocket
Intoxicated
On love steam!
I need you to help me through
Pan the views through the news
I feel you coming to
Get over here, no time to lose!
Party Time
Free your mind
It’s time to let off steam
Party Time
Free your mind
Time to remember your dreams
Its Party Time

Flickering Lights
04:53
|

I've continued our chats
with the newly sprouted tufts of grass
and a dandelion trembling
is the echo of your lovely laugh
It’s been quite a struggle coping
I suppose I am still hoping
that the rustling leaves I hear
is you whispering in my ear
After the end of the end of time
I will be yours
You will be mine
Lost little souls in a boundless night
flickering lights disappear out of sight
I've been crying in my bed
shaken by the things I think you've said
Was it my imagination
or your lips upon my neck
I like talking to your armchair
in the wee hours of the morning
as I gaze at your reflection
in the darkened TV screen
After the end of the end of time
I will be yours
You will be mine
Lost little souls in a boundless night
flickering lights disappear out of sight

Smoking Choking
Life out of this rotten planet
Holding onto my life
Cause there’s nothing left
Molten Lava
Radioactive
Nuclear Bullshit
Stunted little Parrot
White rabbit
Pig Shit!
Always jokey-woking
‘Til the shit hits the fan
Spray my face in fertiliser
Grow a mos-toosh
Hairy pits
Super fit
Built like a brick shit
Wearing leopard-print
Fishnet underpants
I’m on the run, Barely began
Gathering sun, but I’ll take my time
I’m overrun (ahhhoooooooohhhooooooooh)
The damage is done (ahhhoooooooohoooooooohoooooooooh)
Everyone’s gonna sink into the slime
Ohhhhhoooohhhhhh-ahhhhhhoooooooohhhooooooohh
Bwanganod!
Ohhhhhoooohhhhhh-ahhhhhhoooooooohhhooooooohh

Well done you’ve
Braved it through
Into the night
And into the news
Looking forward for the truth
Don’t look back
Shadows will swallow you
It’s not what it seems
Pre-Cambrian dream
A shepherd's crown
Fossils underground, underground
All that’s solid melts into air (Free humans)
All that’s solid melts into air, into air (Free humans)
Free yourself Free yourself (Free humans)

Inside inside
find your animals
honour your guides
your power power
stones stand
shadows circling
we dance upon the footsteps of ancestors
we wait for the light to come
rising towards the mirror mirror
we walk, a mass into the sea
pulling forever forward forward
You might see a very big ball of light
You might see an ever-expanding pale of sky
Roots touch under the ground and reach for truths waiting to be found in time
Inside inside
find your animals
honour your guides
your power power
stones stand
shadows circling
we dance upon the footsteps of ancestors
we wait for the light to come
rising towards the mirror mirror
we walk, a mass into the sea
pulling forever forward forward
You might see a very big ball of light
You might see an ever-expanding pale of sky
Roots touch under the ground and reach for truths waiting to be found in time
Spheres collide and bright our minds
We swim we glide in ever-increasing primes in primes
Tears denied come rolling on the tide
We feel the magic of being alive at the same time
Custodians of the sand
We watch it pass through our hands
and wait for the waves to claim it from us
Into the white we step
It takes our breath
we feel an all-encompassing ray of love.
