A Fall Down
Look I did hope a token goal
Sort of fell for a fairy tale
Felt soft in my coat
Was a lord of the go now
And vanity’s shadows of regress
Like a perfume sprayed on to impress
Fills me up with its scent
Of a go now
Oh leave it alone
Hang out for a count now
Bye bye soldier
I bought you out
Here's loads now
'Cause cheers I get is now it's true
Played real hard in uniform
Running up to join the queue
Of a fall down
Had love up my sleeve
Would have thrived in a Gulag
Reasons all but gone
Seemed to dance for the chance then
And vanity’s shadows of regress
Like a perfume sprayed on to impress
Fills me up with its scent
Of a go now
Oh leave it alone
Hang out for a count now
Bye bye soldier
I bought you out
Here's loads now
'Cause cheers I get is now it's true
Played real hard in uniform
Running up to join the queue
Of a fall down

The Glory Of The State
Wait stay people
Door Jamming people
Who wait around
In hopefulness like the way they dress
Got their tickets
A numbered fate
Wait
And Poster people
upon the wall
Who look like us
With smiling faces
That motivate
To get a job
It's about their number
More than their face
We went up in the world today
Helped by sleight of hand
But did the world
Just go up on us
Behind our backs
We'll never know
The call of the nation has exploitation
In hit and run
There was never a contract
Just a clever mind shame
Hidden in the act
With tiny steps
You can dance around
In the crowd
But keep your coat
'Cause the music just
Played out
And there's no space
Please move on
To raise a glass to the giving ones
Who work all hours
For a petty sum
For charity
Is to miss the point
It's just for the glory of the state
It's for the glory of the state
The call of the nation has exploitation
In hit and run
There was never a contract
Just a clever mind shame
Hidden in the act

The Feelings Just The Same
I've got my touch
You’ve got your fame
The feelings just the same
Never a word we gotta say
We just turn and walk away
Oh why
When we're all
Gonna die
Oh Christ
Come let's sit down
By our sides
We're here at this time
It's some sort of fate
Let's reconcile
Before it's too late
Look at the gap
And feel the pain
It's mental and insane
Oh why
When we're all
Gonna die
Oh Christ
Come let's sit down
By our sides

Golden Dark
Looking out as the snow that falls upon the cold winter frozen ground
The sky turns grey and the trees are bare,
A view I know where you cant be found
Cause I know that you belong here sweet girl eccentric golden dark
And I believe that you possess things I forgot things I like to find
Christmas time and the rush is on we had our day for all to be seen
I need to you to grow a little concentrate and find your thing
Cause I know that you belong here sweet girl eccentric golden dark
And I believe that you possess things I forgot things I like to find
It's conditional is all I can offer it's a way, after all its a modern World
Cause I know that you belong here sweet girl eccentric golden dark
And I believe that you possess things I forgot things I like to find
Cause I know that you belong here sweet girl eccentric golden dark
And I believe that you possess things I forgot things I like to find

Parasite
Parasite
Parasite a-calling
A brave new dawning
Parasite a-calling as the savage takes the fold
Bearing gifts as you promise to go home
You cold brute you took her to the shore
You spun her yarns
Then you took her
To work condemned
you scorch some piece of mind
In starch white suits
You beat them into line
Your sword a-sharpened by
God’s only hand
Entitled sons you lay
Barren their land
Happy now with your flag
Parasite a-calling a glinting in the sun
Take your seat
While daggers are cooked up
Civilise with coldness in your eyes
Go build your empire
It may take a few to die
Your sword a-sharpened by
God’s only hand
Entitled sons you lay
Barren their lands
Happy now with your flag

More Than A Wreck
More than a wreck
More than a stage
To base a life on
It could be said
It is more
Than the sum
Of the parts
I want to be free
To discover me
And chance upon a whole load of odyssey’s
Wanna make it up
As I go along
Right or wrong
Now I can breathe
Now I can dream
And leave through the open door
I wanna have the greatest time of my life
I can possible have
More Than a wreck
More than a stage to base a life on
It could be said
It is more than the sum of the parts

Typical
All of your yesterdays blew in your face
A time of love and a time of hate
A time of falling onto your knees
Begging forgiveness with a small please
What should I do what should I say? (he says)
How should I feel when walk away?
But she's hoping you whisper sweet things in her ears
Hoping for love through all of the tearsI
It makes you feel good it makes you feel tall
It makes her feel good makes her feel small
But you took her over new exactly what to say
You let it all blow over in a tangling way
It's a typical me and a usual you
It's a typical me and a usual you
A typical me and a usual you
A typical me and a usual you

Martha Ray
I know you went be the name of Martha Ray
Hidden pretty so as no bomb would explode
In the barking night
There's a howl on the lull
As the light fades fast
On all that you know
You have that look and the world get on its knees
A Cleopatra look
A not out to please look
But a crazed stare is always coming downstairs
Has no mercy
Comes from nowhere
His sudden cry came upon your pretty eyes
With pistols primed for the show
He couldn't say why
Except you'll never leave his side
Taking the ride
There she goes
There she goes
And all the stories read ready on the sofa
Of how we drive knives through her
killing her culture
Are tragic turn-arounds of something well kept
Those feeling forces are put out to rest
You met in shadows hidden from view
Sung and danced in big empty rooms
Queued behind him like he told you to
Your patience a wonder they can't take that from you
His sudden cry came upon your pretty eyes
With pistols primed for the show
He couldn't say why
Except you'll never leave his side
Taking the ride
There she goes
There she goes

Feel The Effects of it From Afar
Coach/poach me if you can
'Cause I like it from the can
Trust in me
I'll trust in you
Believing all the things you say
That are not true anyway
Greedy yes you
I feel the effects of it from afar
Feel the effects of it
Feel the effects of it
From afar
