Du Du 03:05
Ladies and gentlemen, We have you surrounded. Drop all your devices. Drop all your disguises. Palpable lonliness, Distracted ignorance Episodic And robotic Automatic Isolated Human beings. Ladies and gentlemen Now that you're surrounded Put down your empty guns, Emerge from hiding there Behind your devices Menacing disguises Complicated vices Alternate life-capsules Give birth to new dances

Odessa 04:27
Coded message in the weather again, Inside, broken, a new amusement. Downtown - birds and a broken light. You have spoken and I am in love. Odessa Seven years now you've been my man, One hundred more not enough to be had. Take my body into your arms, Never let go, never lose sight Of this, my love, of this Perfect life. Odessa

Four wheels turning, faster, burning Credits for your buy Hetero life, deduct your wife and your children We don’t want to pay for your war or your company Watching, waiting, contemplating what lies will be told What would it take to break these brackets? We pattern our future on flawed history What would it take to break these brackets? Stop and account for our humanity Bloody Diamonds, sinking islands Time slips on by Powerless gods Ancient sightlines Who really decides? Outdated rites, forgotten fights, mistakes on repeat Take two passes round the masses, do you see yourself? What would it take to break these brackets? We pattern our future on flawed history What would it take to break these brackets? Stop and account for our humanity Disposable income troubles - where to spend your cash? One, two, three, four houses or more Lose count while we spend Socialism won’t survive here Spread out the wealth Four wheels turning, faster, burning What a way to live

Virtual comprehensive complicity Uncritical mass produced reality No hope for transformation or revolution Supernatural superstores supervision. Transconurbation sameness, monotony Ears to the ground eyes open perceive this shock. My lord, my tailor My lord, my tailor Blindingly, violently dark shades of green Metainfection blanketing humanity Acquiring bargains of everything bland At the expense of workers in faraway lands. Excessive penetration of vanity Mind's eye introspectively Reveals this shock. Reveal this shock Reveal this shock Reveal this shock

I found myself across the ocean from you I’m tring my best, baby To try to breakthrough. I mystify you, I know I’m no good Believe me my heart is there Beating for you. Please don’t you leave me then. Please don’t you go. Walk down the street, baby. But please don’t go.

Living somewhere between real life And fantasy An amalgam of the two is All that he needs Straying too far subconsciousness Lost in his dreams Don’t forget to put out the light Then come to me I don’t know what you’re thinking Leaving your tracks on me even when you’re not around Surrounded by white noise alright Hold onto me Distractions everywhere alright Don’t set me free Beautiful boys and girls around But one for me Idealized and hypnotized The one for me I don’t know what you’re thinking Leaving your tracks on me even when you’re not around Living somewhere between real life And fantasy An amalgam of the two is All that he needs Beautiful boys and girls around But one for me Idealized and hypnotized The one for me I don’t know what you’re thinking

Pentatonic 02:30
We have pills for everybody. We can make you very happy. You don’t have to be so angry, lonely mournful; just swallow then Dream away Dream away Away up high Away up high Away up high Away up (high) Float away feel oh so airy, Let your troubles disappear and All the sudden life’s quite cheery. Lightness suits you well, my deary. Dream away Dream away

Speak To Me 05:02
Drifting around on the warm summer air I take your hand in mine, we disappear If our creation is only a dream Then I’m content with the fantasy. Stars hanging high Cosmic glitter Floating on by Sky like water Turning the pages of our shared history A previous existence is hard to believe Eyes connecting far away in darkness Lean on me I’ll be here; there’s no “unless” My heart belongs to you, Take it with care Troubling times, but to you my soul I swear Stars falling out of orbit Celestial ships Dazzling existences Ephemeral trips Reflections on the ceiling - gold and silver This life’s fleeting but my love’s forever

Drive 03:01
We drive ourselves crazy looking for action (there’s no reaction) We don’t care about the Taliban (we drive ourselves to drink) We don’t have any future (but we go on) We drive to the ocean (just to say that we were there) Drive to the ocean We planted a garden on top of the old one (when the old one went bare) We stand and stare and search for signs of something new (something to lean on) Drive to the ocean
