GREAT THINGS ON MY MIND
Everybody thinks it’s my memory
Everybody knows just the same things
Everybody thinks best a-chemically
Everybody has just the same dreams
C’mon C’mon C’mon don’t say that
Go on Go on Go on just think it
C’mon C’mon C’mon don’t say that
Go on Go on Go on just think it
I need it better I’ve got great things on my mind
It will get better, too much for anyone to bear
Suddenly you speak so uncleverly
Suddenly you have all the same words
Suddenly you landed one featherly
Eventually you’ll leave it’s the same thing
C’mon C’mon C’mon don’t say that
Go on Go on Go on just think it
C’mon C’mon C’mon don’t say that
Go on Go on Go on just do it
I need it better I’ve got great things on my mind
It will get better too much for anyone to bear

FOR OUR SISTERS FOR OUR BROTHERS
Jack & Johnny they got nowhere
So he flicked his knife and he held it there
A James Dean jacket and a troubled stare
He stepped on the rails as the guys appear
Teenage progression and he’s still so proud
A feeble fist and he’s on the ground
Cos Jack & Johnny they got nowhere
So he flicked his knife and he held it there
If you run it’d get them rattled
Pass the gum I can smell a battle
For our sisters for our brothers
For our sisters & our brothers
The race and the rubble and the railway track.. he's got his boots on
His turn in the middle is a fighting act..his will was too strong
His hair is too long
He's got it all wrong
Cos Jack & Johnny they got nowhere
So he flicked his knife and he held it there
If you run it’d get them rattled
Pass the gum I can smell a battle
For our sisters for our brothers
For our sisters & our brothers
Jack & Johnny they got nowhere
So he picked up his knife and he held it here
If you run it’d get them rattled
Pass the gum I can smell a battle
For our sisters for our brothers
For our sisters & our brothers
For our sisters for our brothers
For our sisters & our brothers
Pass the gum..yes I’m coming
And my jacket ..yes I'm coming
For our sisters & our brothers thank you

ANNA
Anna, an’ I see yah, it frightens me
Years merged, into memory
Living inside my dreams
Won der ing will I see you again?
Years, years, years, gone
Years, years, years, gone
Am I chasing ghosts, cos I’m losing spirit?
I really need to know, am I alone in this?
Am I haunted by a past I can’t let go?
Do you feel that fire deep inside your soul?
Years, years, years, gone
Years, years, years, gone
Ahhhh
Standing at the crossroads, human sacrifice
Giving all I got to, tried to put it right
Why don’t you cut me I bleed?
Why don’t you cut me I bleed?
Why don’t you cut me I bleed?
C’mon and cut me I bleed
Years, years, years, gone
Years, years, years, gone
(C’mon and cut me I bleed)
Years, years, years, gone
(C’mon and cut me I bleed)
Years, years, years, gone

Get Up-Get Off

GET UP-GET OFF
I got my red dress on and my high heels too
It’s all glitter and sin for me, huh! How about you?
And when I turn down the lights, fix me a drink or two?
And if I go to the club, say, in a minute or two
Hey would you come along? All glamour and perfume
Hey this night stinks of you
If you go then I’ll still stay
Won’t come visit any day
Get up-get off get up-get off get on your own
It isn’t all that it seems, now we turn down the lights
I keep a hand on your hands, and a muzzle for your bites
Well, ain’t this shit getting heavy?
If you go then I’ll still stay
Won’t come visit any day
Get up-get off get up-get off get on your own
Is this the part when you get sassy? All tequila morose
Spilt drinks, burnt toast, bad taste, no classy
You wink, one for the road?

LUNACY
Bright moonlight
Ripples reflect lunar sea
Washing the red away
Doesn’t take the stain from my hands
It cannot be washed away the only thing that you can do is pray
It cannot be swept away the only thing that you can do is
Pray
Pray
Pray
Pray
Sinful times
Shut behind sockets out of sight
Suppressing pain deep inside
Wishing immortal thoughts would slowly fade
They cannot be locked away the only thing that you can do is pray
They cannot be shut away the only thing that you can do is
Pray
Pray
Pray
Pray
Pray
Pray
Pray
pray
Forgive me

THE REVELATOR
How long to speed to Mars and back?
St John of Patmos he...he wrote the fact
That serpents, beasts and promised second comings
Will sort the race out its second running
Now Mr Lawrence he...he sussed it out
And found it damning so chose to doubt
That serpents, beasts and promised second comings
Will sort the race out its second running
It’s our lot...your best shot
I’m no dictator I’m the revelator
I’m all you’ve got
No prophet seer can ably prove
Ain’t supernatural ain’t that the truth
That serpents, beasts and promised second comings
Will sort the race out its second running
It’s our lot..your best shot
I’m no dictator I’m the revelator
I’m all you’ve got

FLY
I’ve got a fly in my eye there’s a fly in my eye, in my eye and its making me itch
I have a fly in my eye there’s a fly in my eye, in my eye and its making me twitch
Dirty little buzzer, dirty little thing
Dirty little buzzer dirty little thing
There was a fly in my eye, was a fly in my eye, in my eye and it made me itch
There was a fly in my eye, was a fly in my eye, in my eye and it made me itch
Don’t know where he come from
Don’t know where he’d bin
He flew in my eye ball and it made it sting
There was a fly in my eye, was a fly in my eye, in my eye and it made me itch
I had a fly in my eye, was a fly in my eye, in my eye and it made me twitch
Don’t know where he came from, I don’t know where he’d been
He flew in my eye ball and it made it sting
Fly, Fly buzz buzz buzz buzz buzz buzz buzz buzz
Fly, Fly buzz buzz buzz buzz buzz buzz

If It Bothers You?

IF IT BOTHERS YOU?
We don’t know if it’s a good idea to take us to your home
Spreading fear into our lives won’t make us feel at home
Cos it’s a lie
I don’t know why
But it’s a lie
I don’t know why
If you think it’s alright to lock us up scared in there
I will take you on and then I’ll make you scared instead
Cos it’s a lie
I don’t know why
But it’s a lie
I don’t know why
Is it something we said that bothers you?
If so, we’ll make amends
If it’s something we said then we’ll run away
Go away, run away if it really bothers you?
Is it something we said that bothers you?
If so, we’ll make amends
If it’s something we said then we’ll run away
Run away, go away if it really bothers you?
Go away if it really bothers you?
Go away if it really bothers you?

Say goodbye to Betty Ford
Want more want more want more x3
Oh ooh oh, oh ooh woe night long,
Oh ooh oh, oh ooh woe night long,
Kicking down the doors cos I gotta feel, gotta see
Kicking down doors
Kicking down doors cos I’ve gotta live , I’ve gotta breath

LOVE’N’LOATHE'N’PEACE’N’ANGER
Switch the light on
Choose your words and let them go
Paint a picture
Form a thought and state your view
I'm love’n’loathe’n’peace’n’anger now
And that's the way you make me feel
Don't despair now
Intelligence it can be raised
To misquote Nietzche
We need illusions to live our lives
I'm love’n’loathe’n’peace’n’anger now
And that's the way you make me feel
Add your face into the picture of a crowd
Work your mouth and make a sound
Clench your fists now
Watching TV shows you how
Cocked and loaded
Shows you’re ready for the row
