@SONG: 5/4

I can feel it
My mind is going
I can feel it
I can feel it
My mind is going
I can feel it
There's no question about it
My mind is going
I can feel it
Oh no, my mind is going.....

@SONG: 25 YEARS
( - Brock - )
Went to school, I studied and I got my G.C.E.
My City and Guilds and my Sky Diary
But it didn't do me no good
Didn't like my looks
So I burnt my books

Spent 25 years doesn't matter anymore
Stand around the streets
And lie around the floor
Looking at the sky
I watch the world go by
25 years, 25 years

I started out one day and I worked in a factory
My mind went blank I needed a battery
Didn't do no good
I got the sack, my work was slack

They said there's life up there in the galaxy
The world in collision
There's people with an allergy
25 years of, 25 years of, 25 years
of social research

Spent 25 years doesn't matter anymore
Stand around the streets
And lie around the floor
Looking at the sky
I watch the world go by
25 years, 25 years

@SONG: Adjust Me


City black, encase the time
World full of men, who all are blind
Who walk and talk and say as one:
"Androids are we", their tune o sun
Adjust me
Adjust me
Adjust me.....

@SONG: The Aerospaceage Inferno


A flight of steel eagles tearing by
The ripped silk screaming of the rended sky
Flame on through sound and make time fly
What a good way to go....
What a good way to go
In the aerospaceage.......inferno

Fly through the ground like a circus hound
Through the burning hoop in just one bound
So not even your ashes will be found
What a good way to go....
What a good way to go
In the aerospaceage.......inferno

Set the controls for the heart of the Earth
The silver machine's worth more than you're worth
But the phoenix soul is bound for rebirth
What a good way to go....
What a good way to go
In the aerospaceage.......inferno

@SONG: ANGELS OF DEATH
( - Brock - )
We're angels of life, we're angels of death
We're born to blaze a nuclear way through space
A way out of the waste that held the human race
We're angels of life, we're angels of death
We are the dead who are never led
We are the warriors at the edge of time
We lurk inside your brain, hide inside your minds
We're angels of life, we're angels of death
We stalk the city streets to kill all we meet
Nostrils flare awhile, it makes you want to smile
We're born to erase, all of your days

@SONG: Arrival In Utopia


We dreamed of golden shining towers
Of lazy days and thrilling hours
Fields of wonder, streets so fair
Of amber ships which sailed, through the air

Dreamed of steel and glass and wire
Of days of wine and nights of fire
Dreamt of dogs that talked like boys
Of girls who flew, of unnamed joys

And now our dreams are true
We don't know what to do
For we don't like it here
There's nothing for us to fear
Bored mindless in Utopia

________________________________________________________________________

@SONG: ASSAULT AND BATTERY
( - Brock - )
Lives of great men all remind us we may make our
lives sublime
And departing leave behind us footprints in the
sands of time
Of hewn stones the sacred circle where the
wizened sages sat
Let us try to remember all the times where they
were at.
So your thoughts they were expecting assault and
battery on the human anatomy
Assault and battery on the human anatomy man.

@SONG: The Awakening


I would rather the fire storms of atmospheres
Than this cruel descent from a thousand years
of dreams, into the starkness of the capsule.

Where two of our crew still lay suspended cool
in their tombs of sleep.
Those nagging choirs of memory
the tubes and wires
worming from their flesh to machinery
I would have to cut

Such midwifery is but one function of the leader here
Floating in a sac of fluid dark
A clear century of space
Away from Earth
While one man stares from the trauma of his birth
Attending to the hypno-tapes
Assuring him
that this was reality
however grim
Our journey's end

Landing itself was nothing
We touched upon a shelf of rock
selected by the automind
And left a galaxy of dreams behind.....

______________________________________________________________________

@SONG: Back in the Box


Back in the box, shut in the dark
Falling apart

Digging the dirt
Hiding the hurt

Locked in a dream
What does it mean?

Shut in the box
Too many locks

Back in the box, back in the box
Back in the box, back in the box

Counting down
Twisting round
See behind your back
Counting down
Twisting round
See behind your back
....behind your back    [ x 7 ]

Locked in dreams
What does it mean?

Shut in a box
There's too many locks
Shut in a box
There's too many locks

Round and round
Round and round and round

I see you
Hanging there

Switch on the TV, look at the screen
Money for a Rolls or a washing machine
You pay your money and you pay your rent
Every day it's always spent
Maybe it starts to be the same
You look out your window and it starts to rain
Someone is saying it's time to die
Send us some money and I'll tell you why
I pay my stamps and I pay my tax
I daren't stop working and that's a fact
But all I see on the TV screen
Is starving kids and war machines
Is this what i've been taught in school?
Is education the golden rule?
             the golden rule
             the golden rule.......

Back in the box
Back in the box
Back in the box
Back in the box

@SONG: BE YOURSELF
( - Brock - )
Be yourself, see yourself
I can see others like me
Be yourself, see yourself
Try and find peace of mind
Be yourself, see yourself
Be yourself, see yourself
I can't find peace of mind
Be yourself, see yourself
I can see others like me

@SONG: BLACK CORRIDOR
( - Moorcock - )
Space is infinite, it is dark
Space is neutral, it is cold
Stars occupy minute areas of space
They are clustered a few billion here
And a few billion there
As if seeking consolation in numbers
Space does not care, space does not threaten
Space does not comfort
It does not speak, it does not wake
It does not dream
It does not know, it does not fear
It does not love, it does not hate
It does not encourage any of these qualities
Space cannot be measured, it cannot be
angered, it cannot be placated
It cannot be summed up, space is there
Space is not large and it is not small
It does not live and it does not die
It does not offer truth and neither does it lie
Space is a remorseless, senseless, impersonal fact
Space is the absence of time and of matter

@SONG: BLACK ELK SPEAKS

( - Brock/Black Elk - )

Grandfather, Great Mysterious One, you have been always, and before you nothing
has been.  There is nothing to pray to but you.   The star nations all over the
universe are yours.  And yours are the grasses of the earth.  Day in Day out,
you are the light of things.  You are older than all weeds.  Older than all
things on Earth.

Grandfather, all over the world the faces of living things are all alike.  In
tenderness they have  come above the ground.  Look upon your children with
children in their arms, that they may face the winds and walk the good road to
the day of quiet.

Teach me to walk the soft earth, a relative to all that is!  Sweeten my heart
and fill me with life.  Give me the strength to understand, and the eyes
to see.  Help me for without you I am nothing. Hetchetu aloh!

In your throat is a living song
A living spirit song
His name is long life maker
Yes, I'm here to heal
With the healing ways
Of the magic of the ground
And the magic of the earth

So go on my friend
And sing with the healing spirit
With the magic of the ground
With the magic of the earth
And you will spring to life
Through the power of the words
Through the magic of the ground
Through the magic of the earth

@SONG: BORN TO GO
( - Brock - Calvert - )
We were born to go, we're never turning back
We were born to go, and leave a burning track
We were born to go, and leave no star unturned
We were born to grow, we were born to learn
We're breaking out of the shell, we're breaking free
We're hatching our dreams into reality
We were born to blaze a new clear way through space
A way out of the maze, that held the human race
We were born to go, as far as we can find
We were born to go, to blow the human mind
_______________________________________________________________________

@SONG: BRAINBOX POLLUTION
( - Brock - )
Well my body's burning up
And I'm feeling so bad
And I think it must be something that I've just had
Screaming sounds are buzzing through my brain
Am I mad or am I sane?

I can't control my body anymore
It's reaching down into the very core
I've gotta find a way of solving the solution
Is this what they call brainbox pollution?

Take my hand, I'll lead you on
To learn so far, my dreams your own
Is this world that we all find
It's leaving us so far behind
________________________________________________________________________


@SONG: BRAINSTORM
( - Turner - )
Sanding on the runway waiting for takeoff, I wanna fly,
wanna watch me flake off,
I can't move 'cause the man has a rake off, you gotta help me,
help me to shake off,
This body of mine, I wanna get out of this void,
This body of mine, and I don't wanna be destroyed,
this body of mine, I don't wanna turn android,
This body of mine, you gotta help me avoid that,
Brainstorm, here I go, Brainstorm, flying low
Brianstorm, I wanna miss it, Brianstorm, you'd bet I'd kiss it,
this body goodbye.
I can't get no peace until I get into motion,
Sign my release from this planet's erosion,
Paranoia police have sussed out my potion,
You gotta help me or there'll be an explosion
in this body of mine,
I wanna get out of this void,
this body of mine, and I don't wanna be destroyed,
this body of mine, I don't wanna turn android,
this body of mine, you gotta help me avoid that,
Brainstorm, here I go, Brainstorm, flying low
Brianstorm, I wanna miss it, Brianstorm, you'd bet I'd kiss it,
this body goodbye.

@SONG: Bring It On Home


Well, I bought my ticket
And I got my load
And the conductor yelled
Now all aboard

Well, I take my seat
And I sit right back
And I watch
That train go down the tracks

Said Baby
I said Baby
Gonna Bring It on Home Now
Gonna Bring It on Home Now
Gonna Bring It on Home Now
_________________________________________________________________________

@SONG: The Changing


I will adjust this thing in here..

We're gonna change you
Rearrange you
We're gonna change you
Rearrange you
We're gonna change you
Rearrange you.............

Now you must be me
Our system's fine, we'll soon see
You'll have no cause to worry now
Just play your part in the show
_________________________________________________________________________

@SONG: CHILDREN OF THE SUN
( - Turner - Anderson - )
The golden age of the future comes
That which was dreamed of in the past
Where freedom reigns on minds of peace
Minds rich in wisdom to the last
We are the children of the sun and this is our inheritance
No longer chaos and confusion
But love and laughter
Song and dance
_________________________________________________________________________

@SONG: Choose Your Masks


They're handing out the weapons
And your armour's ready too
But the most important item
Has been left up to you
You must make a firm decision
And once it's made you'll find
That the form that you have chosen
Can entirely fill your mind

For the mask you have selected
Stands for Chaos or for Law
And you cannot take it off now
'til you're no longer in the War
And the Masks of War are grinning
And from under them you howl
Out the slogans of the part you play
for the Battle's starting now

Choose your Masks
The ranks are forming
Choose your Masks
The day is dawning
Choose your Masks
And choose the side that you'll be on
And learn the words of your new song
For the Battle will be long.....so long........

@SONG: Coded Languages  (Bainbridge, Moorcock)

Investigate the meaning of your sentence
What is it telling you ?
Where does it begin and where does it end ?
Question the nature of your orders
Question the nature of your orders
Question the nature of your orders
What do they want from you ?
A rendezvous upon the sound
The cars rev up the word goes round
The words are weapons of their will
Their words can hurt
Their words can kill
A burning phrase can burn a town
A syllable can bring you down
Their languages are coded
Your image is eroded
Listen to the sound you heard
Learn to fight against their word
Vocabularies of death
Destruction in their breath
They use the lie
They use the myth
Seek only to confuse
And liberty abuse
The lies they tell are pretty
And blow up another city
They steal away your freedom
And your love
Their sentimental calling signs
Are calculatingly designed
To rob you of your mind and time
And still you listen to
The lulling drone of reassuring voices
Tunes to take away your choices
Make you slaves to fancy words and phrases
Until you're pushing up the daisies
They steal away your freedom
and your love

@SONG: Confrontation


I AM NOT INTERESTED IN ANYTHING YOU HAVE TO SAY

During 1985 the activities of alternative groups such as the "Peace
Convoy" posed a number of serious public order problems for the Police.
In particular a voilent confrontation took place at Hardcastle,
Wiltshire on Sunday 1st June when a convoy of 170 vehicles was being
driven towards Stonehenge at the time of the summer solstice
celebrations, in clear defiance of injunctions which were in force.

When the hippies were stopped, by a roadblock, from proceeding further,
they entered a nearby village where a voilent confrontation with the
Police took place and 420 persons were arrested.

I AM NOT INTERESTED IN ANYTHING YOU HAVE TO SAY

"It is clear to me that the problem is not going to go away. Nor do I
believe it is going to be solved by the approach of `Shhot them, gas
them, and send them back to the cities where they came from.'"

ANYTHING YOU SAY WILL BE TAKEN DOWN AND USED IN EVIDENCE AGAINST YOU

@SONG: The Curse of Man


We have despoiled the Earth and our women are dishonoured
With our weapons we have melted every gateway to salvation
We thought ourselves safe in our armour and our masks
And so we saved ourselves, it's true, for our damnation

We're damned by the Curse of Man
      damned by the Curse of Man
      damned by the Curse of Man


We refused to hear the outrage of reason's daughters
The anger of unwarlike sons which crossed our waters
The pleadings of the innocents, the moral arguments
To moderation, generosity, kindness and consent

We're damned by the Curse of Man
      damned by the Curse of Man
      damned by the Curse of Man

We raised a genocidal flag, imperial and boastful flag
Raised a standard of contempt, and mounted on a boney nag,
Became the herald of apocalypse, the enemies of women;
The vicious harvesters of souls; Death's chuckling children

We're damned by the Curse of Man
      damned by the Curse of Man
      damned by the Curse of Man
      damned by the Curse of Man
      damned by the Curse of Man........

@SONG: Damage of Life


I wonder around the streets so lonely and empty
Lost in a crowd, but I can't hide
Is there a place where I can escape to?
A desert island where I can die

The Damage of Life is neverending
There is no escape and we can't hide
Maybe our time is up, but we don't want to
Face up to facts there is little that is life

I see the pain, but do not face it
Breathlessly peering on a broken plate
Mirror, Oh Mirror is there any answer?
But the mirror drops smashing our fate

@SONG: DAMNATION ALLEY
( - Brock - Calvert - House - )
I've got the serum and I'm going to take it
All the way to Boston, oh I've got to get through
The going won't be easy, but I'm going to make it
It's the only thing that I'm cut out to do

Ride the post-atomic radioactive trash
The sky's on fire from that nuclear flash
Diving through the burning hoop of doom in an
eight wheeled anti-radiation tomb
Thank you Dr. Strangelove for going do-lally and
leaving me the heritage of Damnation Alley, Damnation Alleyway

No more Arizona, now Phoenix is fried up
Oklahoma City what a pity it's gone
Louisiana delta where the Mississip's dried up
No more Chatanooga, Cherokee, Lexington

Radiation wasteland, radiation wasteland
Ashes coming at me now, craters coming at me now
Radiation wasteland, I've got my anti-radiation machine
Thank you Dr. Strangelove, I said thank you Dr.
Strangelove
For giving me the ashes and post-atomic dust
The sky is raining fishes it's a mutation zoo
Going down Damnation Alley, well good luck to you
Good luck to you now
Armor plated angel, motor-pony express
Armor plated angel, motor-pony express
Going down Damnation Alley it's one hell of a mess
___________________________________________________________________________

@SONG: Dangerous Visions

Night sky and city
Keeps us in
Life signs of pity weep within
Games of reality are hard to win
The child of the Third World looks so thin

Dangerous visions, taunt me
Ancient memories, haunt me
Future decisions, confuse me
The story so far just eludes me

The man on the pavement catches your eye
You look in amazement, he's decided to die
The crowd have engagements, they're just passing by
The child of the Third World, is wondering why
________________________________________________________________________

@SONG: The Dark Lords


I have turned Zarozinia into a giant slug Elric
You will no longer mate with women like her
We will have the Sword from you Elric
One way or the other, it makes no difference
Look at him scurry backwards and forwards
The poor little wretch does not know which way to turn
Ah, we've got him this time
That is unless we turn into a worm, a slithering worm
Give us Stormbringer
Your spells are no good now
Go on Elric, look into your baubles
You will find that we are right
You will find that you have to give it to us
_____________________________________________________________________________

@SONG: DAYS OF THE UNDERGROUND
( - Brock - Calvert - Shaw - )
In visions of acid we saw through delusion and
brainbox pollution,
we knew we were right.
The streets were our oyster, we smoked urban
poison and we turned all this noise on,
we knew how to fight.
We dropped out and tuned in, spoke secret
jargon and we would not bargain for what
we had found in the days of the underground.
We believed in Guevera, we saw that head held up
and our anger welled up,
but we kept it cool.
No need for machine guns 'cause the system was
crumbling, our leaders were fumbling,
while we broke every rule.
We saw them on T.V. they'd blown their cover and we
tried to smother their voices
with sound, in the days of the underground.
Whatever happened to those chromium heroes, are
there none of them still left around, since
the days of the underground?
Now we can look back at the heroes we were then,
we made quite a stir with our sonic attack,
street-fighting dancers, the assassins of
silence, with make-believe violence, on a hundred
watt stack.
They offered us contracts, we said "we don't
need 'em", we'll just take our freedom and will
not be bound in the days of the underground.
And some of us made it but not smiling Michael,
his black motorcycle got eaten by rust.
And John the Bog dreamt that he slept at the
wheel, but when he woke it was real, too late
to have sussed.
And Jeff was a poet who wrote with a spray
can on walls,
saying "Hey man, I believe that we've drowned"
in the days of the underground.

@SONG: Dealing with the Devil


Now, my baby got excited about a little ring
But our marriage didn't mean a thing
I've been dealing with the devil
I've been dealing with the devil
I've been dealing with the devil
My baby, she doesn't love me no more

I got the meanest woman man has ever seen
She sleeps with a knife in her hand Lord, she fights all in her dreams
I've been dealing with the devil
I've been dealing with the devil
I've been dealing with the devil
My baby, she doesn't want me no more

Now I ain't going down ain't by myself
If I can't take you girl, I'll take someone else
I've been dealing with the devil
I've been dealing with the devil
I've been dealing with the devil
My baby, she doesn't want me no more

________________________________________________________________________

@SONG: DEATH TRAP
( - Brock - Calvert - )
In the back of my neck I can feel a strange sensation
Feels like I'm heading for the crisis of all creation
Only those with death wish understand my situation
Feels like Jesus Christ heading for the stations

of the cross, in my death trap, death trap
Running in my death trap, death trap
Chicken running in my death trap, death trap

Heading for the crossroads of fiery crucifixion
Lighting up the night sky with bitterness distinction
While I hold the wheel of fate, smell of burning friction
I feel like a hero heading for extinction

It's the shell of steel or plastic
Monkey on elastic, going up and down
Crank shaft cracking up
Oil pressure going down
Brake drums blowing out
Tyres on fire now
Differential seize up, unbalanced cam shaft
Worn out pistons rings, brake fade, brake fade
hydraulic leak out, radiator overheat
Monkey on elastic, going up and down
Shell of steel or plastic, turning round
Shell of steel or plastic
Monkey on elastic, going up and down
__________________________________________________________________________
THE DEMISE
Arioch I summon thee
Lord of the Seven Darks
Arioch I summon thee
Put fire in my heart
Arioch I summon thee
Can you hear my plea
Arioch I summon thee
In my hour of need
_________________________________________________________________________

@SONG: Disintegration  (Brock)

Is this the time gone before
Is this the way ?  No I'm not sure
Can I stop is it too late
Is this the place where I disintegrate
_________________________________________________________________________

@SONG: DOWN THROUGH THE NIGHT
( - Brock - )
Down down and down, down down and down
As we spin through the night
With ever increasing might
Down down and down, down down and down
Returning volumes of sound
Into the blackness we drown
Round round and round, round round and round
As we lay in our sleep
The appointment we keep
Down down and down, down down and down
Only the rushing is heard
Onward flies the bird
Deep, deep, and deep, must we sink in our sleep
Down down and down, down down and down
Returning volumes of sound
_________________________________________________________________________

@SONG: Dragons and Fables


I am the child of wars never won
Take heed prisoner, I am the One
Your battle is over before it began
For a child on the run, I am free

Many tournaments fought in this land
Flying banners now dashed in the sand
The colours you wear will not keep me
For a child on the run, I am free

The courts and knights of the table
Bold stories of dragon and fable
Your sword is red-stained I can see
For a child on the run, I am free

Silk, satin, and riches in plenty
Acres of land, four and twenty
I am not you, I am me
For a child on the run, I am free
______________________________________________________________________

@SONG: Dreaming City


Gleaming towers that touch the sky
Ancient turrets catch the eye
You stand so proud
Coloured walls that shine so bright
A monument to truth and light
You carry on
Yet fate is working so to bring you down

Peopled by a master race
But living lives so cruel, so base
Unconquered souls
Their master knows not how to rule
Dark forces use him as their tool
He carries on
And fate is working fast to bring him down

Dreaming City your light is fading
Amidst the chaos that now is reigning
Uncaring beings come soon to raze
your tall, fair towers to set ablaze
So fate is working fast to bring you down
_____________________________________________________________________

@SONG: Dream Worker


I have come.
But I do not choose now,
to do what I came to do.

Navigation Computer report:

Orbital status now maintained.
Target zone vectors logged in.
The Tube is now ready.

Please swallow your blue Dreamer
and place the helmet on your head.

Can you hear the lights approaching?
There's a sudden rush of sound
You laugh but no-one's joking
The Dreamer's turned you round
And now there's no distraction
You've slipped the noose of fate
Your dreams are now in colour
You've reached your future state
You've reached your future state
You've reached your future state......

________________________________________________________________________

@SONG: D-RIDER

We're children playing in the sun
A sense of freedom on the run
We never knew what time it was
We just knew how sublime it was

Our course determined by our stars
My momma knows just where we are
The Earth was falling from below
A dragon showed which way to go

Spacing out, we're spacing in
Phasing out, we're phasing in
Burning up by burning out
Looking up and gazing

Our luck, it changes with the tide
Our constellations changing side
Macro mirror-image fades
Our over-conscience colour shades

We're astral-planing, floating free
On our continuum frequency
A ring was formed out of the stone
Metamorphose, tetraphone

Spacing out, we're spacing in
Phasing out, we're phasing in
Burning up by burning out
Looking up and gazing

@SONG: DUST OF TIME
( - Brock - Bainbridge - Lloyd-Langton - )
Waiting in the valley of all creation
Calling out a song for the state of the nation
I am son born of father never related
Frozen in a bank of ice essence liberated

Looking from the future into the past
Footprints of awareness approaching so fast
Queues of sterile mothers waiting for inspection
Populace diminished everywhere there is rejection

Dust of time caught in your eye
A fleeting glimpse gone in a sigh
________________________________________________________________________

@SONG: Earthed to the Ground


Delicate, slimline, sturdy wood
Got my hi-fi, as I should
Video cassette is what I need
Record my favourite programs on TV
Separate slider, tone control
Extra speaker with bass and roll
Audio spectrum, sonic swirl
Computer next with buttons to twirl
Super giant TV screen
Then a camera to take pictures of me
I get my girlfriend to come round
To freak her out with raucus sounds
My automatic camera then will spy
As on the bed now we would lie
Educational programmes flash on the screen
Where moments before, we had been
I'm wired up for sound
I'm earthed to the ground
I'm wired up for sound
I'm earthed to the ground....


I have good news
A Prince has been born and some say he will be King.
I told them it was a boy instead of telling them the truth that it was a girl.
Only a few people know
Let me propose a toast to Silverland and its new King (laughter).
___________________________________________________________________________

@SONG: Ejection


There's only one course of action
Left for me to take
I've tried every switch selection
That might control this state
I think for my protection
I better make it straight
Into Ejection
Better tell Base
Ejection
That I think it's a case
For Ejection
Explode into Space
Ejection
Protect my Face
Ejection

The radar screen's projection
Tells me I'm too late
To make a course correction
I'm about to meet my fate
No time for reflection
I'd better make it straight
Into Ejection
Bust through the sky
Ejection
The air rushing by
Ejection
It's a case of goodbye
Ejection
I'm too fast to die
Ejection

When a ship meets with destruction
The Captain stays to drown
But no tin contraption
Is going to drag me down
My reference intersection
Tells me that I'm bound
For Ejection
Eight times my weight
Ejection
I've got to escape
Ejection
Only one move to make
Ejection
Abandon this crate
Ejection
__________________________________________________________________________

@SONG: ELRIC THE ENCHANTER
The song he sang was surfaces
Nothing deeper than a child knows
He could sing sand into pearls
So the saying goes
Some said he was a sorcerer
Or a warrior chief
But he was the stealer of souls
The lord of Chaos reaps
And he's frozen in a time trap
Slowly losing power
And he's frightened if he makes a move
The dream will soon turn sour
Sprawling in a Ruby Throne
Head cupped in his hands
The lord of dragons, Elric's thoughts
Were of quests to far off lands
A black sword was at his side
Murmuring in its scabbard cold
Waiting for the moment to arrive
To drink the very essence of soul
He did not know that the sword he'd hold
Would turn his priceless empire into fool's gold
The truth, the shadow of the sword will hide
Til it's too late, a traitor at his side
And as he gazes from his ruby throne
He's growing restless of the life he's sown
To get away, embark on a quest
And put his powers of sorcery to the test
The drugs he takes to keep himself awake
lose their effect, he can no longer wait
To find the sword and gain more power
And make his move before the dream turns sour

@SONG: FABLE OF A FAILED RACE
( - Brock - Calvert - )
Our legends tell we came from a seed
That travelled at a whirlwind speed
Til' it came to rest upon this land
That once was green and is now all sand
That buried us up to our eyes
And made us watchers of the skies
Til' the shadow wings came for our sight
And left us to conspire with night.

@SONG: Fahrenheit 451


In Lexington they're going to burn
The Library of Congress for charity
Round it's funeral pyre the flames will churn
As night and winter's darkness spurn
And threaten with their clarity

See the flames they're burning up
Burning so bright, Fahrenheit

Fahrenheit 451 Fahrenheit 451
The fun has just begun, Fahrenheit 451

Oh see the pages all catching fire
See the building shimmering now
It was like this when witches reared
Against the stake, we stood and peered
At such Aladin's caves of air
Oh I wish you could have seen us there
Spreading all around that funeral pyre
Watching the flames burn higher and higher

Fahrenheit 451, Fahrenheit 451
The fun has just begun, Fahrenheit 451

Fahrenheit 451, Fahrenheit 451
The burning has just begun
It's like a mushroom cloud on a sun
Fahrenheit 451
The fire's fierce theatre draws herds of folk
All willing to be hypnotised
Anemones of flames and smoke
Enchant us so we gladly choke

Fahrenheit 451, Fahrenheit 451
The fun has just begun, Fahrenheit 451

@SONG: Fall of Earth City


News had drifted on the wind of many minds that this was to be an
occassion of great importance. For it was said by some that Earth City
had somehow uncovered a single time sleeper from the time before.

Although the cryptic writings upon his tomb were now faded beyond
decipherable reading, it was said, by the disembodied members of the
ruling kind, that the entombed was from that time on Earth before the
city stretched its metal web from pole to pole leaving green things only
in the wells of immortal minds.

Upon the third revolution after its arrival, the tomb that slept without
life was removed for inspection. The day was programmed for a clear dome
above, with a mild breeze wafting from the central weather post. Below,
throngs of class three occupants were gathering from various sectors to
observe the opening. As per standard procedure, their data input
stations were fed appropriate propaganda so that their reports would
coincide with what the rulers had predetermined.

And so it was upon that day of opening, his spirit did appear and confuse
once again. It was evident to all that what lay within was not of mortal
composure. Thoughts emanating from deep within its dimensionless cave
conveyed this belief to all within the medi-dome.

What is this apparition now amongst our kind?

Quickly thereafter, all pressure was released from within the stillness.
Earth City, unknowingly at that time, was about to enter a new phase of
its existence.

Violent quaking began to shake the towers of sector 63. Manifestations
of melting spead its wings over the structure until once again, ancient
soil kissed the sky.

And the beginning of the end swept all that was into its eternal grasp.

@SONG: FIFTH SECOND OF FOREVER
( - Brock - )
There's a circle on a paper
High a planet in the sky
>>From the dust which will not settle
Hours is the time you lie

Trace your finger in the cluster, you've found the cause
which is called must
Remember always you are nothing, though others say that
you must suss, you must trust the new messiah

________________________________________________________________________


@SONG: First Landing on Medusa


Full Waking took us days to realise
Adjusting to the newness of our eyes
We stayed inside, performing simple tasks
Hardly speaking, faces set like masks
Until the time came round for us to set
The first feet on this world, to get
our samples, and erect the instruments
A barren planet, but to all intents
Another Eden opening its gates
For this chosen few who'd outslept their fates
Anonymous, identical in our suits
We entered the airlock. My weighted boots
would be the first to touch this unknown stone
I led some distance, then, I felt alone
So I turned and saw, that the others were
standing still, I radio'd to make them stir
but got no answer. So I waved my arm
But they still stood as though a stoning charm
had taken hold. I made my slow way back
And found each man had frozen in his track
I hammered my gloved fist on visor-plate
And pulled at pressure-padded arms. A state
of utter trance had overtaken all my men
My mouth felt dry, my fingers stiff, and then.....

@SONG: FLYING DOCTOR
( - Calvert - Brock - )
He sneaks through the door of the surgery
He's got the drug cabinet key, he did something funny
and tied up his arm
It's just the flying doctor, no cause for alarm
He sprinkled out a powder, and spread out a line
He sniffed it up his nostrils, and he's feeling so fine
Feeling so fine, it feels like he's flying
Feeling so fine, it feels like he's flying
His receptionist saw him, it certainly shocked her
She said "Look out, you'd better duck, here
comes the Flying Doctor"
Out in the outback there's been an outbreak
And the Flying Doctor's got nothing to take
He went to the cabinet and the cabinet was bare
He's so outraged and you can see by his stare
Called up his mates on the radio, he said "My supplies
are running low"  They're running low you can see
where they go.  They're running low I see where they go
Out in the outback with my merciful claptrap
Look out you'd better duck, here comes the Flying Doctor
He's got the cabinet key, the cabinet key, the cabinet key
"This is the Flying Doctor calling Wallarolla back.  Will
the base come in please?  I want to talk to you about
my drugs situation...  He's as drunk as a Kangaroo's Carbeurator"
Cabinet key
Wake up one, two, three, four
A Sheilah in the bush by a Koolah bar tree needing an
urgent appendectomy
The Flying Doctor like a true Australian, performed the
operation with a saltine can, he made a rough incision
and tried to chew it out, he had no anaesthetic
So she started to shout, she started to shout.  When
he was chewing it out.  She started to shout and
tried to chew him right out, balled up his fist and
scientifically socked her
Look out you'd better duck.  Here comes the Flying Doctor.
Cabinet key, cabinet key, cabinet key...

@SONG: FREE FALL
( - Calvert - Bainbridge - )
Before you jump you wear the frown
of someone who is stalling
There's no up there's only down
The other fear of falling

All you need to do is take
One step into the sky
Give yourself to gravity
Give death another try
In free fall, free fall

The wind'll take your frightened face
And force your mouth to smile
While destiny is on your case
The gods look up your file

The clouds are coming at you
Like a host of angels wings
For thirty seconds of freedom squared
You've cut the puppet strings
In free fall, free fall
__________________________________________________________________________

@SONG: THE GOLDEN VOID
( - Brock - )
The golden void speaks to me denying my reality
I lose my body, lose my mind, I blow like wind,
flow like wine
Down a corridor of flame, will I fly so high again
Is there something wrong with me, I cannot hear,
I cannot see
Down a corridor of flame
So you think the time is past, the life you lead will
always last
Chaotic fusions of your soul, down below
that rocky knowle
Through the clouds an open sky, the wind flows
through your watering eyes
The sounds are pitched to draw you on your never
ending journey on
The edge of time, the edge of time, the edge of time

@SONG: Green Finned Demon:


He Draws the moon towards him
With a wand of whales' bone
The submarine magician is returning to his home
His slow hair floats around him
And his cloack spreads like a flower
The submariner has the oceans in his power

Green finned demon take me down
Green finned demon take me down

He speaks the bubbing language
Of everything that swims
He knows the eightfold secret
Of the Octopus's limbs
His skin is silver scales
And his hair is green as weed
His eyes are phosporescent
A sea-horse for his steed

Green finned demon take me down
Green finned demon take me down

Captain Nemo knew him
In his underwater deep
He understands the meaning
Of the dolphins' joyful leap
Green finned demon take me down

And in the fullness of time, The Prophecy must be fullfilled. The

Silver wings for you to go

Take me back to the Ritual time

The Angels of Light take you back

So you can be in paradise

@SONG: HEADS


Limits of the infinite
Have never been defined
A spirit lies in atrophy
In a state to late to unwind
Trophies on the back shelves
Procreating all our race

Ideals of our fantasies
On which all things are based
Collecting every prospect
Running through your tests
With manikin expressions
They end up like the rest
In glass booths they're wired
With needles in their flesh

They're pickled for posterity
And eternally refreshed
So link yourself to others
Talk yourself to sleep
It's all so superficial

No use for you to weep (seven times)

So place your trust in science
For it has come so far

Well, Necromancy lives forever
Preserved within a jar
(repeat six more times)

@SONG: High Rise


Flat block
Of two dimensions
Neon totem pole to the sky
Keeping scores of people stacked up so high
Above the ground
But all they can hear is the sound
Of the wind in the antennae
It's a human zoo
A suicide machine

Childhood
Of concrete cube shaped
A flypaper stuck with human life
Caged up rage
Swarming all the time
Tear out the telephones
Rip up the pages of directories
And wreck all these
High speed lifts and elevators
Be a sabotage rebel without a cause

High rise
Living in a high rise
High rise
Living in a high rise
High rise
Living in a high rise
High rise
All stacked up in a high rise block

High rise
Living in a high rise
High rise
Living in a high rise
High rise
Living in a high rise
High rise
All stacked up in a high rise block

Starfish
Of human blood shape
Tentacles of human gore
Spread out on the pavement from the 99th floor
Well somebody said that he jumped
But we know he was pushed
He was just like you might have been
On the 99th floor of a suicide machine


High rise
Living in a high rise
High rise
Living in a high rise
High rise
Living in a high rise
High rise
All stacked up in a high rise block

@SONG: HORN OF DESTINY
Yet year on year the greedy tide
Swelled from the west unsatisfied
And ever with impatient fret
Gnawed at the human banquet
And many with madness in their eyes
Stared gibbering at the white hot skies
Where foul birds circled overhead
Shadowing the living and the dead
Southward to where the blood red sun
Sickens at noon in vapours dun
He stumbles with the fear-tamed herds
Of savage beasts
While homeless birds fly overhead

There's hundreds of people like you and me.

@SONG: IMAGES

( - Brock/Davey/Wishart - )

Memories surround them
Walking through the door
Smells of dust and summer heat
Embroidering his thoughts

The seeing hand
The face of fate
The shifting scenes I can't explain
The crazy fool who screams his pain
As he tries to cheat life's final game

Whispering from the balcony
Fingers in the hall
The well worn path of alternity
Appearing here once more

It's gone now
It's gone now
Twist the soul
Turn Flesh to stone
The fear and the anger
Of the lost and alone

Endless dreams of wasted days
Slowly fade away
Laughter echoes bitterly
There's no need to stay
__________________________________________________________________________

@SONG: INFINITY
( - Calvert - Brock - )
I used to be of human kind,
I had a life to lead
But now I'm frozen in a dream
My life is lost it seems
She turned the key
Of endlessness and locked me
In a dream, Infinity

Infinity so beautiful
Has turned my soul to ice
And crystallized eternity
For all my future time
She turned the key
Of endlessness and locked me
In a dream, Infinity

I met her in a forest glade
Where starbeams grew like trees
I did not take her for a witch
She wasn't what she seemed
She turned the key
Of endlessness and locked me
In a dream, Infinity

@SONG: In the Egg


We live in the Egg
We live in the Egg
We have covered the inside wall of the shell with dirty drawings
and the christian names of our enemies
We are being hatched
Whoever is hatching us is hatching our pencils as well
Set free from the Egg one day, at once we shall draw a picture
of whoever is hatching us
We assume that we're being hatched
We imagine some good natured fowl and write school essays about the colour
and creed of the hen that is hatching us
When shall we break the shell?
Our prophets inside the Egg, for a middling salary, argue about
the period of incubation
The posit a day called "X"
Out of boredom and genuine need, we have invented incubators
We are much concerned about our offspring inside the Egg
We should be glad to recommend our patent to whom looks after us
But we have a room full of hardheads, senile chimps, polyglot embryos
chatter all day and even discuss their dreams
But what if we're not being hatched?
What if the shell will never break, if the horizon is only that of
our scribbles, and always will be?
We hope that we're being hatched
Even if we only talk of hatching there remains the fear
that someone outside the shellwill feel hungry
and crack us into the frying pan with a pinch of salt
What then my brethren inside the Egg?

@SONG: In the Office

I am so distant
And so cold
I've lived too long
And I'm so old
I've tried so many distant ways
I've watched each one of them delayed
I can't expound for the ages
While we are leafing through the pages
The office blocks from which we march
Mirrored shades of the Patriarch

Lounge lizards in penthouse flats
May soon find out where it's at
They gnaw away our hard earned pay
We walk the treadmill every day

Caught by streams of constant motion
Most of the workers have no notion
Sitting glued to the computer screens
Fingers raised - "must finish the scene"
Techno-droppings don't exist
Within these walls we can't resist

_____________________________________________________________________

@SONG: Into the Realms

Long ago these un-neutered skies
Told our race a tortured lie
The winds had borne them across the land
Their existence still dust in our hands

Our voices cackled in their ears
Could not abate all of their fears
The seas had frothed and flashed to steam
Their flesh was scalded for one human's dream
A human's dream
A human's dream

@SONG: IT'S SO EASY
( - Brock - )
Try to understand it, though it's very hard to to see
The reason that we are living, no longer seems to be
Revolution's coming the chaos will soon end
We've reached the age of learning
You'll see it in the end.

It's so easy, it's so easy, it's so easy, it's so easy

To say what you say, do what you want
It happened today no matter what
They say this world's so mixed up everywhere you go
Everywhere you go, everywhere you go, everywhere you go

@SONG: Jack of Shadows


Jack of Shadows, nocturnal outlaw
Daemon of darkness, brother to the night
Jack of Shadows, what's he hanging out for?
King of the dimensions, the other side of light

And when he passes
He casts shades of mystery black
Flowing like molasses
It's only Jack of Shadows on his way back
To the kindom of thieves
Before the skies crack

Jack of Shadows, cloak of constellations
Draped around his body, blanking out his face
Jack of Shadows, don't believe in God, he
steals from the future, fades without a trace

And when the flames flare
Flickering forms of velvet dark
He plays his games there
It's only Jack of Shadows, he's lit up by a spark
To run into the umbra , as fast as a shark

Jack of Shadows, ultravoilet eyesight
Giving him the vision that cats-eye infrared
Jack of Shadows, watch him as he flies right
Through all of the umbras, quicker than the dead

And when he passes
He casts shades of mystery black
Flowing like molasses
It's only Jack of Shadows on his way back
To the kindom of thieves
Before the skies crack

Jack of Shadows, Jack of Shadows
Jack of Shadows, Jack of Shadows
Jack of Shadows, Jack of Shadows.......

Faceless possessor of all life's schemes
Through me you can laugh in the face of fate
I am the Joker at your gate

Although I sit upon this chair, I rise and float up in the air

Everytime I go out, I think I'm bring checked out,

Do you begin to sense it, just beneath the surface
Reflections of a window whilst walking down the street
Computers are abused, school records are fed
Police are checking on what you said
The number of your car's fed into a box
Your journey's being checked, it's a paradox

I'm living in the future
I'm looking in the future
I'm living in the future

Not a sound was heard
No call came from the bird
Only the carpet of green
>>From towering trees was seen
Where have they all gone?
Why was there no song?

I'm living in the future
Looking at the past

Crystal evenings, long ago, twisted winds and weeping snow
We missed a turning in the past, is there anything that can last
The race is run, the time is right, get out your gun
it's time to fight
And all our dreams just turn to dust, look to the future
forget the past
Mistakes you've made can't be redeemed, they are made
because you dreamed a dream
Honest sunsets turn to paint, the lie you tell
becomes a taint
The house you built reverts to dust, the sword
you held it turns to rust
The lies you tell destroy your will, the price
you paid you're paying still
And the rocks in the river grow higher and higher
As the water gets lower and lower
There are ghosts in our lives that will not fade
There are ghosts in our lives that will not fade,
until we've paid

@SONG: Lost Johnny   [incomplete]


You only get a single chance
The rules are very plain
The truth is well concealed inside
The details of the game
You can see it coming
You can hear it from afar
It's pale and it flickers
Like a faded movie star

And up there in the castle
They're trying to make us scream
By sticking thumb tacks in her flesh
And cancelling the dream

Can you find the valium?
Can you bring it soon?
Lost Johnny's out there
Baying at the Moon

The time has come for you to choose
You'd better get it right
Berlin girls with sharp white teeth
Are waiting in the night
But you oughta really get some
It surely can't be hard
There's always trouble waiting
When you leave your own back yard

And underneath the city
The alligators sing
About how the puppets cannot dance
Since someone cut the strings

Run and get the morphine
For God's sake make it brief
Lost Johnny's out there
Looking for relief

Now Simon looks so evil
And you know he really tries
But every time he makes a play
That vital number dies
And Sally buys her underwear
>>From a store where no-one goes
She makes it big in photographs
On the strength of what she shows

And here inside the waiting room
The radio still screams
And we're all taking Tuenol
To murder our young dreams

Run and fetch your credit card
Try to make it quick
Lost Johnny's out there
Trying to turn a trick

Magnu, horse with golden mane, I want your help yet once

Walk not the earth but fly through space as lightning flash
or thunders race
Swift as the arrow from the bow, come to me so that no one
can know.
Sunbeams are my shafts to kill all men who dare
imagine ill,
Deceit that fears the light of day fly from the glory
of my ray,
Good minds open and take new light until we diminish
by the reign of night
A burning brand was seen to fall, it lit the
darkness of the hall,
The flying hoofbeats circling in, come to me and
let us spin.

And rest to heal their wounds
But time has taught, without a thought
Their guns will call the tune

They say it is tha mark of Cain
It's imprinted on our hearts

The shame it is that I should go
Seems we've grown apart

Mostly blind, can't see the signs
They stumble in the dark
My eyes confused, our lives abused
Just trying to make a mark

They say it is tha mark of Cain
It's imprinted on our hearts
The shame it is that I should go
Seems we've grown apart

( - Brock - Turner - )
I am the centre of this universe
The wind of time is blowing through me
And it's all moving relative to me,
It's all a figment of my mind
In a world that I've designed
I'm charged with cosmic energy
Has the world gone mad or is it me?

I am the creator of this universe
And all that it was meant to be
So that we might learn to see
This foolishness that lives in us
And stupidity that we must suss
How to banish from our minds
If you call this living I must be blind.

@SONG: MICRO MAN
( - Calvert - Brock - )
It's the age of the Micro Man, who sees the detail but never
the plan
It's the time of the tiny creep, who pulls the levers
while he falls asleep
Twenty five years of social research

It's the age of the insect man who pushes buttons
and takes back the can
It's the age of the Micro Man who sees the detail but never
the plan
Twenty five years of social research
Twenty five years of social research

@SONG: MIRROR OF ILLUSION
( - Brock - )
In the cold grey-mask of morning I cry out,
But no-one feels the sound that I shout,
And you don't hear me through the tears you've shed,
and the dream-world that you've found will one
day drag you down,
The mirror of illusion reflects the smile,
The world from your back door seems so wide,
The house, so tiny it is from inside,
A box that you're still living in,
I cannot see for why
You think you've found perception's doors, they
open to a lie.

@SONG: Moonglum


Moonglum, friend without a reason
Moonglum, friend without a cause
Embarrassed by a show of love
But would stand by the man of the feeble blood

This bond meant much more to him
Than a kingdom offered by a queen
No words for this silent trust
As the Sword goes on to sate its lust

Moonglum and Elric hunting Theleb K'aarna
Myshella now replacing Queen Yishana
See them travel through open skies
See how the amazing steel bird flies

Armies stand, soon to fall
Sorcery is the tune they call
Pitting wit against flesh and gall
Timeless searching in timeless halls

Walking out to meet his death
To find this was no release
Searching for some sort of ease
Denying feelings that made him weak

Moonglum and Elric hunting Theleb K'aarna
Myshella now replacing Queen Yishana
See them travel through open skies
See how the amazing steel bird flies

@SONG: Motherless Children


Motherless children have a very hard time when their mother is gone
Motherless children have a very hard time when their mother is gone
Motherless children have a very hard time,
all that weeping and all that crying
Motherless children have a very hard time when their mother is gone

Some people say that a sister will do when their mother is gone
Some people say that a sister will do when their mother is gone
Some people say that a sister will do,
soon as she's happy turn her back on you
Motherless children have a hard time when their mother is gone

Father will do the best he can when their mother is gone
Father will do the best he can when their mother is gone
Father will do the best he can,
so many things that father don't understand
Motherless children have a hard time when their mother is gone

@SONG: MOTORHEAD
( - Kilminster - )
Sunrise wrong side of another day
Sky-high and six thousand miles away
Don't know how long I've been awake
Wound up in an amazing state
Can't get enough and you know it's the righteous stuff
Goes up like prices at Christmas, Motorhead
You can call me Motorhead alright
Brained out total amnesia
Get some mental anaesthesia
Don't move, I'll shut the door and kill the lights
If I can be wrong, I must be right
All good clean fun, have another stick of gum
Man you're looking better already, Motorhead
Remember me now, Motorhead, alright
Fourth day, five day marathon
We're moving like a parallelogram
Don't move, the morning's not a pretty sight
I guess I'll see you on the ice outside
I should be tired, and all I am is wired
I Ain't felt this good for an hour
Motorhead, remember me now Motorhead

@SONG: MOTORWAY CITY
( - Brock - )
Turning star projections, voices from the deep
Throbbing of the engines, you exit from the heat
Paper on the pavement, cars crawling in the road
Emotions of the city, you ease your heavy load
A Motorway City, well it ain't the same
Lighting up the night sky, with an orange flame
A Motorway City, well you exit on the right
Cruising on the highway, when you're driving through the night
A Motorway City, well it ain't the same
Lighting up the night sky, with an orange flame

@SONG: Narration II [from Live Chronicles]

Some said he was a sorcerer
Or a warrior chief
But he was the stealer of souls

And he's frozen in a time trap
Slowly losing power

The Dream will soon turn sour

I'm gonna bring you down with my needle gun
Feel my pin prick tattoo your spine

In your head
It's a pity it's a shame
Nothing's been said
It's a vaccination joy
With the ultimate death toy
It's gonna make you run
Needle, needle gun

@SONG: Neon Skyline


Before my eyes, a neon skyline
Colours drip, dimensions entwine
Twisting matter, time and space
Got to leave reality's waste

Colours blind us
Lights and liquids
Darkness hides us
>>From the conscience

I changed my course, I had no choice
I always listen to my inner voice
Projecting auras used to create
Escape into the next stargate

Colours blind us
Lights and liquids
Darkness hides us
>>From the conscience

Before my eyes, a neon skyline
Another trip, beyond the mind
Senses swirling in my head
As darkness falls upon the ledge

Colours blind us
Lights and liquids
Darkness hides us
>>From the conscience

@SONG: New Jerusalem


"Nor shall my sword rest in my hand
'til we have founded Jerusalem
Here in Englands green and Pleasant Land"

                                            William Blake (1778)

And here's this crystal city
That is mapped out like the stars
She's been waiting there for ages
For us to give her force
Some call her Ynnis Glytrr
Crystal Isle to you or me
So full of glowing emanations
That you don't need eyes to see

So here inside these valleys
That are so full of energy
We'll build a New Jerusalem
With Love from You to Me

Pyramids and Stonehenge
Are Ley lines to this place
City of Revelations
That governs inner space
So now tune in your auras
Let Solstice music sound
And build New Age vibrations
And feed them to the ground

So here inside these valleys
That are so full of energy
We'll build a New Jerusalem
With Love from You to Me

Light that shines through darkness
For us, it's plain to see
Our Cosmic generation
Has power enough to be
So find this inner vision
And grasp it at the start
And build a New Jerusalem
Inside your loving heart

And here inside these valleys
That are so full of energy
We'll build a New Jerusalem
With Love from You to Me

                                    Tim Blake (1978)

@SONG: Night of The Hawk


In all official circles
Across this big wide world
Between the radio stations
A coded message heard
No one knew the meaning
All our efforts seem to fail
But if they catch you listening
Then they'll lock you up in jail
So we found ourselves a place we did not know
Tension in the air and a strange earthly glow
Then amidst the noise of a thousand people's talk
There came a cry "It's The Night of The Hawk!"

The wind was raging, and the stars were black
We all knew there was no turning back
The gates of Hell stared in our face
Nowhere to hide in this wasted space

The curious folk who chanced to stray across this downland way
Heard the music blast apart
The games that politicians start
On English land the people dance
Like moths caught in a lamp
Where tribes of wanton peacocks strut
All waiting to encamp
So we found ourselves a place we did not know
Tension in the air and a strange earthly glow
Then amidst the noise of a thousand people's talk
There came a cry "It's The Night of The Hawk!

@SONG: Note From a Cold Planet


There is ice everywhere now, from pole to pole
And we live in a kind of miserable twilight
Mining what we can of the food we left behind
Mining for Campbell's Soup and Birds-Eye peas
For Heinz baked Beans and sliced Kraft cheese

Yes all the food is frozen now
    all the food is frozen now

Last year we struck a forest two hundred feet below
It was perfectly preserved. It was as though
Some cryogenic process petrified it in time
It seemed a shame to drag it up and burn it
But we've no choice if we wish to stay alive

Yes, all the trees are frozen now
     all the trees are frozen now

There are fourteen of us left in our group today
Three of these are women: warriors from Mandalay
The others are from Africa, America, Japan
The English cannibal is, of course, a man
He claims it is the price he has to pay

Yes, all our hearts are frozen now
     all our hearts are frozen now

I know for certain there is earth below the snow
The land we lost only a few short years ago
When in our euphoric ferocity we loosed the fires
No water could extinguish. A hundred billion funeral pyres
Their fumes became our shroud. There's nowhere left to go

Yes, all our hopes are frozen now
     all our hopes are frozen now

We denied ourselves the right to walk upon the Earth
To walk upon the surface of our Earth
We denied our rites, the lore of ancient wisdom
We can no longer walk upon the surface of our Earth
Denied the facts of death and the facts of birth

Yes, all our Future's frozen now
     all our Future's frozen now

@SONG: Now is the Winter of Our Discontent


Now is the winter of our discontent
Made glorious summer by this sun of York
And all the clouds that lower'd upon our house
In the deep bosom of the ocean buried
Now are our brows bound with victorious wreaths
Our bruised arms hung up for monuments
Our stern alarums changed to merry meetings
Our dreadful marches to delightful measures
Grim-visag'd war hath smoothed his wrinkled front
And now, instead of mounting barbed steeds
To fright the souls of fearful adversaries
He capers nimbly in a lady's chamber
To the lascivious pleasing of a lute
But I, that am not shap'd for sportive tricks
Nor made to court an amourous looking-glass
I, that am rudely stamp'd, and want love's majesty
To strut before a wanton, ambling nymph
I, that am curtailed of this fair proportion
Cheated of feature by dissembling nature
Deform'd, unfinished, sent before my time
Into this breathing world, scarce half made up
And that so lamely and unfashionable
That dogs bark at me as I halt by them
Why I in this weak piping time of peace
Have no delight to pass away the time
Unless to see my shadow in the sun
And descant on mine own deformity
And therefore since I cannot prove a lover
To entertain these fair well-spoken days
I am determined to prove a villain
And hate the idle pleasures of these days
Plots have I laid, inductions dangerous
By drunken prophecies, libels and dreams
                                         [opening speech in Richard III]
Can I do this, and cannot get a crown?
Tut! were it further off, I'll pluck it down
                                         [Gloster (later Richard III) in

@SONG: Nuclear Drive


Before I had time to think about it
And right before my eyes
The machine had landed and the doors were open wide
I stepped inside the spaceship, a voice said
"Take a seat man, do you want to cruise the Universe
 to where no one else has ever been?"

With our nuclear drive
With our nuclear drive
With our nuclear drive
With our nuclear drive

Bur before I could answer
The ship began to rise
I looked out of the porthole
And felt most peculiar inside
Take me up the skyways
Show me what you've seen
I want to cruise the universe in your superspace machine

With our nuclear drive
With our nuclear drive
With our nuclear drive
With our nuclear drive

@SONG: NUCLEAR TOY
( - Brock - )
Nuclear facts are hard to take
Harrisburg, Windscale, it's no use to fake
Potassium iodide radiation drug
Won't save yourself from being a mug

It's a nuclear toy
A generator pumping out active gas
Polluting the atmosphere and killing en-masse
Strontium-90 cancer in the blood
Who's gonna pay for the radiation flood?

M4 missile cruising in the sky
Setting off catastrophe in a flickering of an eye
Radiation fallout it's a setting sun
Looking down the barrel and firing the gun

Nuclear death is sweeping the Earth
Babies being born deformed from birth
Mutations are working in the factories
The landscape's full of artificial trees

@SONG: On the Case


On the case
I'm not tired
I'll be wired
A bit strung out
Never sleep
Gotta keep her
Hung out
Check a lead
Check a read..
Check a..
Check a....
Check a readout
Find a clue
And follow through
Then eat out
And now I'm clearing some confusion
It's disappearing without a trace
I'm on the case
I'm on the case

What's your name?
What's your game?
The details like a cop
Can't stop
Empty trails
I suspect
And detect
A windup
Making sense
Evidence
Is lined up

Rainy night
Neon light
Reflection
In a store window
Saw a connection
In the dark
Shadow stark
Don't crack up
Work alone
On your own
No backup

Ovaltine
Nicotine
Stained fingers
Follow up
Collar up
Hat pulled down
On the beat
In an empty street
Let's cool down
Truth and Justice
Voice of freedom
All that must
Disguise it's face
When I'm on the case
I'm on the case........

@SONG: THE ONLY ONES
( - Calvert - Brock - )
Icarus flew too near the sun
Into the blue his red wax did run
He fell to the earth and sealed the scroll
The daredevil angels our luck would unfold

They are the only ones
The chosen only ones
They are the only ones who are free

Half-human half-bird acsending so high
No whisper is heard from deep in the sky
On wings they climb, they beat and they soar
Through space and time toward heaven's door

In chariots of fury and flame
We head for above to stake out our claim
With radioscopes, electronic eyes
We scan for our hopes in different skies

@SONG: (ONLY) THE DEAD DREAMS OF THE COLD WAR KID
( - Calvert - )
If he blows his cover he might blow the lid
So he stays in the shadows like he always did
Deep in his trenchcoat secret papers are hid
It's only the dead dreams of the cold war kid

In a town by the wall the machine gunners wait
To type out the orders that seal his fate
Deep in the shadows where he always hid
It's only the dead dreams of the cold war kid
Only the dead dreams of the cold war kid

Secret career in counter espionage
Covering his fear with clever camouflage
Only the dead dreams of the cold war kid
Only the dead dreams of the cold war kid

Railway hotel with gun oil on the sheets
The man at the harbour waited in the streets
It's only the dead dreams of the cold war kid
Only the dead dreams of the cold war kid

@SONG: ORGONE ACCUMULATOR
( - Brock - Calvert - )
I've got an orgone accumulator
It makes me feel greater
I'll see you sometime later
When I'm through with my accumulator

It's no social integrator
It's a one man isolator
It's a back brain stimulator
It's a cerebral vibrator

Those energy stimulators
Just turn your eyeballs into craters
But an orgone accumulator
Is a superman creator

It's no social integrator
It's a one man isolator
It's a back brain stimulator
It's a cerebral vibrator

I've got an orgone accumulator
And it makes me feel grater
I'll see you sometime later
When I'm through with my accumulator.

@SONG: OUT OF THE SHADOWS

( - Brock/Davey/Buckley - )

Out of the shadows
And into the light
Out of the background
And into the fight
Out of the junkyard
And back on the streets
Out of the blizzard
And into the heat

Out of the rat race
Into the lagoon
Out of the stone age
And onto the moon
Out of the nightlies
Onto the front page
Out of the basement
Onto the Stage

Out of the rainbow
Into the black
Out of the fox hole
And into the flak
Out of the shelters
Under the Bomb  bomb  bomb.....

( - Brock - )
The story that I'm telling you
Something that you can do
Ask yourself and try to find the answer
See the signs they're always there
But you know you never care
You're always looking for another reason
Try to reach it's not too far
See it as you really are
Ask yourself to try and find the answer

Always, always it's the same thing
Try it, try it, you just can't win
Circles, circles spinning round
People, people always bring you down and down
Round and round you go

@SONG: The Phenomenon of Luminosity


Friendship Seven:

I'll try to describe what I'm in here. I'm in a big mass of some very small
particles that are brilliantly lit up, like they're luminescent. I never
saw anything like it. They're coming by the capsule, and they look like
little stars. A whole shower of them coming by.

@SONG: Processed


Every time I go out, I think I'm being checked out
Faceless people watching on a TV screen
Do you begin to sense it, just beneath the surface
Reflections off a window whilst walking down the street

Spying, lying, there's no denying
You can't escape, just be discreet
Computers are abused, school records are fed
Police are checking on what you've said
The number of your car's fed into a box
Your journey's being checked, it's a paradox
Duplicate forms and ID cards, are next in line to disregard

Future generations are relying on us
It's a world we've made - incubus
We're processed, we're processed, we're processed

@SONG: Psi Power


When I was a kid in school
They showed me symbols on a card
Then they sent them from a locked and bolted room
I had to fake that it was hard
Circle, square, triangle, waves
I got them crystal clear by the hour
And all I said was "may I please take a rest?"
I didn't want them to know I was possessed
with Psi Power

Psi Power
Psi Power
I can read your mind like a magazine
I see where you're at
I know what you mean
I get all the secrets that you'd rather keep

When I was a teenage kid and I hung around the streets
I could see inside the mind of any girl that I wanted to meet
Wave, triangle, circle, square
They opened to me like a flower
Would you like to have your mind carressed?
Can't you feel that I'm possessed
with Psi Power

Psi Power
Psi Power
I can read your mind like a magazine
I see where you're at
I know what you mean
I get all the secrets that you'd rather keep

Psi Power
Psi Power
Psi Power
I can read your mind like a magazine
I see where you're at
I know what you mean
I get all the secrets that you'd rather keep

It's like a radio you can't switch off
There's no way to get peace of mind
I'd like to live inside a lead-lined room
And leave all this Psi Power behind
Circle, square, triangle, waves
It's a gift that soon turns sour
Why don't they let me get some rest?
It's too much to understand and to digest
Psi Power

Psi Power
Psi Power
I can read your mind like a magazine
I see where you're at
I know what you mean
I get all the secrets that you'd rather keep

We're sick of politicians harassment and laws
All we do is get screwed up by other people's flaws

But live in concrete jungles that just block

And that ain't no joke, you can disappear in smoke
And that ain't no joke, you can disappear in smoke
I'm telling you, that ain't no lie

( - Brock - )
Two years ago our nova-drive failed and we drifted in space
But now repaired our motors run to continue the race
Three of our crew who were with us then did not survive
Their life supports could not take the strain and so they died

And so we search until we find the answers that we left
behind, and we go from star to star to find the dream
And we will pursue the race that made us journey into space
and led us to become a seed of life, PXR5, PXR5

Robots call, but we don't answer to their wail
Computers hum and bright lights flash to no avail
The course has been set for us to go in light years past
Outlaws of time, visions of an ancient cast

And so we search until we find the answers that we left
behind, and we go from star to star to find the dream
And we will pursue the race that made us outlaws of this space
and led us to become a seed of life, PXR5, PXR5

@SONG: QUARK, STRANGENESS AND CHARM
( - Brock - Calvert - )
Einstein was not a handsome fellow
Nobody ever called him Al
He had a long moustache to pull on
It was yellow
I don't believe he ever had a girl
One thing he missed out in his theory
of time, space and relativity
Is something that makes it very clear
He was never gonna score like you'n'me
He didn't know about Quark, Strangeness and Charm

I had a dangerous liason
To have been found out would've been a disgrace
We had to rendezvous some mesons
On the corner of an undiscovered place
We got sick of  chat chat chatter and the
look upon everybody's face
But all that does not anti-matter now
We've found ourselves a black hole in space
And we're talking about Quark, Strangeness and Charm

Copernicus had those Renaissance ladies
Crazy about his telescope
And Galileo had a name that made his
reputation higher than his hopes
Did none of those astronomers discover
While they were staring out into the dark
That what a lady looks for in her lover
is Charm, Strangeness and Quark.

@SONG: REEFER MADNESS
( - Brock - Calvert - )
Open your eyes, you'll get a surprise, evil is sweeping
the nation,
It's killing your sons and what merely stuns is
Your daughters are out for sensation
When they turn on their morals are gone
They don't really know what they're doing
It's a teenage malaise, a dangerous craze
Leading their bodies to ruin
Reefer madness has stolen all their souls
Reefer madness is right out of control
Evil reefer madness is a mind eating troll

Marijuana monster is stalking the streets
He knows what he's up to, he knows what he eats
He gobbles your body and spits out your mind
If you don't believe it then you must be blind
Reefer madness has stolen all their souls
Reefer madness is right out of control
Evil reefer madness is a mind eating troll

Marijuana's real enough
Marijuana's real enough
Marijuana's real enough

One night I was smoking dope, when I looked at
my hand, and I saw that I had eleven fingers,
one of these fingers fell from my hand,
onto the carpet, crawled across the floor,
Up on my shelf, inside my piggy bank and stole
my stash, stole my stash.
Reefer madness has stolen their souls
Reefer madness is right out of control
Evil reefer madness is a mind eating troll.

@SONG: The Right Stuff


I don't feel fear or panic
And nothing brings me down
I'm an aerospaceage warrior
I can fly sideways through sound
My reflexes and reactions
Are as fast as a machine
I'm the right stuff baby
The right stuff
I'm the right stuff baby
The right stuff
Just watch my trail

When the dial needle flickers
Around mach one or two
And something happens suddenly
I know exactly what to do
My hands move without thinking
And my feet like lightning too
I'm the right stuff baby
The right stuff
The right stuff baby
The right stuff
I never fail

My nerves are made of steel
And my eyes are eagle sharp
And what would freak the average man
Does not affect my heart
Not even if this jinxy jet
Should shake itself apart
'cause I'm the right stuff baby
The right stuff
The right stuff baby
The right stuff
As hard as nails
I never fail
Just watch my trail

Nine to five or ten to six, up to the city and back to the sticks
You've got to unwind your mind, you've got to unwind your mind
Sit back, switch on, your face has got a twitch on
Your fuses are blown out in a double bind
Air-conditioned, psycho-analysed, you're very nearly human,
you're so well disguised
Robot, Robot, you're a Robot, Robot
You're warm when it's cold, you're cool when it's hot
Your life is recorded on a micro-dot, Robot, Robot
You'd hold the whole world in your metal claws
if it wasn't for the three laws of robotics

Automated homunculus, you queue for the paper
You queue for the bus, you're a "good morning" machine
You're a "how are you?" device
Sit back, light up, never put a fight up
Sit there fuming until your face goes green
Air conditioned, and desensitised, you're very nearly human
You're so well disguised
Robot, Robot

I am a robot
I am your slave
I can not harm you
I can only obey

@SONG: Running Through the Backbrain


Running through my backbrain in the morning
I think that what I'm getting is a warning
Messages are scrambled but they're urgent
Something in the cortex 'bout detergent

I think it's coming clearer
I can see it in the mirror
Heading for a relapse
Clogging up the synapse
Or is it just Cassandra yawning?

Killers in the streets are wearing striped pants
They are interfering with my larynx
My brother and my sister joined the army
They promise that they do not mean to harm me

Messages messages Persecution Persecution messages messages.....

Now it's growing dimmer
I can see the mirror shimmer
Sounds are getting stranger
warning me of danger
Or can it be that I am merely tired?

There's a roaring in my ears that will not die
And signals in the sky I can't identify
My eyes are melting and my lips are moving
And the words that I am hearing are not soothing

Breathing's getting harder
There's nothing in the larder
The building's falling over
Or the Sun is going nova
Or is it my old-fashioned paranioa?

I think that it's important information
giving me my future destination
Fragments of mysterious conversation
Lend the game a frightening complication

I know they're trying to tell me
What can they want to sell me?
The floor is undulating
My bones are soft and aching
Or have I temporarily lost my bearing?

Every little sound is charged with meaning
Percentage bandits riding out of ealing
Stuttering, shouting, crying, and declaiming
Sentences are waxing, now they're waning
I'm nearly out of letters
>>From my elders and my betters
The Killer's moving faster
He tells me that he's my master
Or was he just asking me "the time please?"

@SONG: THE SEA KING
Sinking deeper beneath the waves
Mind now resigned, accepts his fate
Ancient alliance creeps into his thoughts
Unbid to him comes a rune once taught
Sea King comes to him - Sea King, to save him
Unsure whether he's dreaming or dead
Seeing the face that his youth has bred
Slowly realizing that to him has come
His ancestors' ally, friend only to some
Sea King comes to him - Sea King, to save him
He sees that his life is safe
His foe Yrkoon has failed
The deed that was to finish him
Has come to no avail
Sea King comes to him - Sea King, to save him
To his kingdom he is now bound
The sea around him is his shroud
Age old wisdom has set him free
So to realize his destiny
Sea King comes to him - Sea King, to save him

@SONG: SEVEN BY SEVEN
( - Brock - )
Lost am I in this world of timelessness and woe
Can I find the doorways through which I must go
Is the key to this plane too much for me to
try to gain
Is the passport to this world my astral soul
7 signs rode on 7 stars, 7 ways to find the
long lost bards
7 days became 7 years, while Pocus laughed
and called foul jeers
7 times he cursed the 7 tears, each one
became their 7 fears
What is lost is never gained again, I've cast the
spell that eternity chained
No more to cry o' mortal soul, the astral
path is now your fortuitous role.

@SONG: Shot down in the Night


Numbers called as they're waiting in a line
Camouflaged like a jungle snake
Acting tough, just enough
'til they start to break
Then they're off with a rush of adrenalin
Holding on to a world unseen
the only sound is the pumping of the great machine

[chorus:]
The secret's only for a few
Superpower looks down on you
Someone's watching every move
You can break the lock and turn on the light ?
You know your danger feelings are right
Try to run or put up a fight
You'll be shot down in the night
Shot down like an animal


See them run like rats from the factory
Push them out to the twilight zone
Let them feed on their needs
'til they're overthrown
Take them up to a place in the gallery
Show them God with an angel face
Curtain call for the fall
Of the Human race

<chorus>

Play it straight and it seems like a mystery
Tell the truth and it sounds like lies
Looking down at the ground
With your angry eyes
Play the game and you'll see there's a difference
Join the ranks and you'll get your kicks
See the world, and the girls, and the dirty tricks

@SONG: SILVER MACHINE
( - Brock - Calvert - )
I just took a ride
in a silver machine
and I'm still feeling mean
I got a silver machine

Do you want to ride
see yourself going by
other side of the sky
Well I got a silver machine

It flies sideways through time
It's an electric line
To your Zodiac sign

It flies out of a dream
It's anti-septically clean
You're gonna know where I've been
In my silver machine
_______________________________________________________________________


@SONG: SLEEP OF A THOUSAND TEARS
With your white arms wrapped about me
And locked in embrace so cold
We slept a 1000 years or more
To awake in a land of gold

Where, the king of the world was a creature
Both man and woman and beast
Under a landscape boiled with a million strange flowers
And the sun set in the east

And we were heroes you and I
By virtue of age and skill
And we rode to the land
At the edge of the skies
To an emerald tower on a hill
_______________________________________________________________________

@SONG: Social Alliance


A social alliance, are you in distress?
Just contact me and I'll do my best
She said "I'm a person, so don't abuse me"
You know I am a doctor of the third degree

We're part of a structure
That needs no consent
You think you're the same
Now we're all different
Jeanie lives for fashion
And I live to fight
Before life was easy
Now we're creatures of the night

We're creatures of the night
We're creatures of the night
We're creatures of the night
Creatures of the night

Don't miss the sensation
It's never too late
If you think you're ready
There's no need to wait
Can your mind take it?
Do you really care?

@SONG: Solitary Mind Games


Unbelieving
Non-receiving
Mind is in a Void
Unforgiven
Bodydriven
Striving to avoid
Anger glowing
Can't help knowing
Hiding from the pain
Everlasting
Grains of Truth are
Gnawing at his brain

Now he wonders
Fears but wonders
Where it all will end

Never certain
Far from certain
Can the future mend?

Conscience torn out
Doesn't know how
He will ever find

Peace of mind
Warlike visions
Torment all his kind

@SONG: SONG OF THE SWORDS
A clash of steel
A blinding light
Is this the start of Chaos' fight?
We were born to be free
Not to live in terror under tyrrany
My eyes were blind I could not see
What was this kind of sorcery?
I heard a murmuring in the night
Black swords hanging cold as ice
Will they lead me to Paradise?
Take up the sword
And take up me
The Chaos lord's answer is to be
Your path is chosen, you have no choice
Come join us now, thus spoke the voice
Paradise, is this my Paradise?
The cool brain tortured by neurotic fears
The man of ice melts in shameless tears
The journey onward, it never ends
How you're alone with so few friends...

@SONG: Sonic Attack


In case of Sonic Attack on your district, follow these rules.....

If you are making love it is imperative to bring all bodies to orgasm
simultaeneously
Do not waste time blocking your ears.
Do not waste time seeking a soundproof shelter.
Try to get as far away from the sonic source as possible,
but do not panic.....

Use your wheels. It is what they are for.
Small babies may be placed inside the special cocoons,
which should be left if possible, in a shelter.
Do not attempt to use your own limbs.
If no wheels are available, metal, not organic, limbs
should be employed whenever practical.....

Remember, in the case of Sonic Attack, Survival does mean every man for himself.
Statistically more people survive if they think only of themselves.
Do not attempt to rescue friends, relatives, or loved ones.
You have only a few seconds to escape.
Use those seconds sensibly or you will inevitably die.
Do not panic.
Think only of yourselves....

These are the first signs of Sonic Attack:
You will notice small objects, such as ornaments, oscillating.
You will notice a vibration in your vertebrae.
You will hear a distand hissing in your ears.
You will feel dizzy.
You will feel the need to vomit.
There will be bleeding from orifices.
There will be an ache in the pelvic region.
You may be subject to fits of hysterical shouting, or even laughter.

These are all sign of imminent Sonic destruction.
Your only real protection is flight.
If you are less than ten years old, then remain in your shelter and use
your cocoon.
But remember:
You can help no-one else, No-one lese, No-one else......

@SONG: SPACE IS DEEP
( - Brock - )
Space is dark, it is so endless, when you're lost it's so relentless
It is so big, it is so small, why does man try to act so tall,
Is this the reason deep in our minds.
It does not feel, it does not die, space is neither truth nor lie
Into the void we have to travel, to find the clue which will unravel
Is this the reason deep in our minds
The secret lies with our tomorrow, in each of us is a hidden sorrow
The path goes onward through the night beyond the realms of
ancient light.
Is this the reason deep in our minds

@SONG: SPIRIT OF THE AGE
( - Brock - Calvert - )
I would've liked you to have been deep frozen too
And waiting still as fresh in your flesh for my
return to earth
But your father refused to sign the forms to freeze you
Let's see you'd be about 60 now, and long dead
by the time I return to earth
My time held dreams were full of you as you were
when I left, still underage
Your android replica is playing up again
it's no joke
When she comes she moans another's name
But that's the spirit of the age, that's the
spirit of tha age
I am a clone, I am not alone
Every fibre of my flesh and bone is identical to
the others
Everything I say is in the same tone as my test
tube brother's voice
And there's no choice between us, if you had ever
seen us you'd rejoice in your uniqueness
And consider every weakness something special of
your own
Being a clone I have no flaws to identify
Even this doggerel that pours from my pen
Has just been written by another twenty
telepathic men
Word for word it says
"Oh, for the wings of any bird other than a
battery hen".

@SONG: STANDING AT THE EDGE
( - Moorcock - House - King - Powell - )
We're standing on the edge
The edge of time
And it is dark, so dark on the edge of time
And we're tired of making love
We are the lost, we are the ravaged
We are the unkind
We are the soldiers at the edge of time
And we're tired of making love
Where are our children
Where are our fathers
Where is our desire
And it's cold, so cold on the edge of time
Where is our joy
Where is our hope
Where is our fire
And it's cold, so cold on the edge of time
We are the the lost, we are the forgotten
We are the undying
We are the soldiers at the edge of time
The veterans of a thousand psychic wars
We are ths soldiers at the edge of time
The victims of the savage truth
We are the soldiers at the edge of time
And we're tired of making love

@SONG: Star Cannibal


Jaws of blue open wide the sky
Silence split with thunder men who fly
Descend the jaws of cosmic brood
For their appetite we the fleshly food

Rising souls and carcassed bone
Fleshless remains in every home
Onwards crunching munching men
Star Cannibal has come again

Flesh fondue - main course stew
Of his unearthly human crew

He partakes of us at will
Enigmatic one we cannot kill
Flesh fondue - main course stew
Of his unearthly human crew

@SONG: STEPPENWOLF
( - Brock - Calvert - )
You can see my eyes are lupine
The liquid golden fires glare
My loping walk, my slinking spine
Are signs that there is something there
The way my nostrils flare for odours
The way my ears prick up for sound
My hair's electrically aware
Tells me things for miles around
I am a man-wolf, I am a wolf man
I have half a canine mind
I have half the mind of man
I am neither of one kind
Maybe it was only an hallucination
I'm no stranger to such things
I made a thorough investigation
The image had a power that clings
To my jaded imagination
My brain has found the bells it rings

Like a wolf my wilful loafing
My languishing alone in my lair
Where you will never hear me laughing
I'm half in love with dark and despair
The Moon's a howling, mouth of mercury
Quicksilver quivering in the sky
It echoes like a cave of chromium
That'll vacuum up my soul when I die
I am a wolf man, I am a man-wolf

A freak, a fiend, a figment of mind
A species of the steppes and city

I am neither of one kind
Dissolving in the slendour of this desolation
The forest has been filled by a fog
Exactly a description of my isolation
I made a note of it in my log
To the secret of all creation
I follow my own trail like a dog

I am a wolf man who walks alone in the gas lamp
Shadows of the streets at night
I am a  man-wolf upright on two feet in the
city dressed somberly as a man
I am a wolf man under skies heavy with snow
My eyes are convex lenses of ebony embedded
in amber
I am a man-wolf
The fat bourgeois and his dopple ganger
are buried in their solid glare
Twin specimens of insect set for display
I am a  man-wolf, the man in me would kill the wolf
I am a wolf man, the wolf in me would eat the man
I am a wolf man, who despises the striving of common men
Who sees them at work, at their daily tasks
at factories and office desk
Who watches them at evening, elbows lift at tavern tables,
heads lolling in song
Isch weis nischt weis ischa (Zargonzoi)

I saw a neon sign reflected in a pool of liquid sky
It was not what I expected I was only walking by
The sign said "to the magic theatre"
It is not for everyone
It is but for madmen only, the first performance has begun
I looked up to see that notice where the lights were
shining from
Nothing but blank wall was there
and their reflection too was gone
Maybe it was only an hallucination
I'm no stranger to such things
I made a thorough investigation
The image had a power that clings
To my jaded imagination
My brain has found the bell it rings

@SONG: Streets of fear  (Brock)

What is this that I see here
You're walking through the streets of fear
What is this did I consent
Armed guard of punishment

What is life and what is death
You may laugh or gasp for breath
I ride the streets now filled with hate
Carve pathways through the lines of fate

With my energising ray
Power is the game I play
I can murder steal or rape
Panic is the rule I make
Panic is the rule I make
Panic is the rule I make

@SONG: SWEET MISTRESS OF PAIN
( - Brock - )
Feel the pain burning, reaching up your spine
How your body shudders higher as you climb
You're reaching for the sky as the lash descends
Tingling stars of fire, burning in your head
Lightning in you opening eyes, bursting thoughts
of power
Feel the velvet whip turning sweet thoughts to sour

Down and down you slowly slide
Your burning body under mine
Together a world with legs entwined
Silky skin with hardened lines
The scent of leather in the air
The colours change not really there
You taste the sweetness of the pain
Will you ever climb so high again

@SONG: Sweet Obsession


I'm standing at the station waiting just to see your face
I'm looking in shop windows whilst trying to retrace
I received your letter, though the information's clear
I want to keep the feeling going, not let it disappear
All the time we've spent together, memories of the past
The future holds the key forever, let's make the future last

Your confession
My sweet obsession
Your confession
My sweet obsession
Your confession
My sweet obsession

I received your letter, though the information's clear
I want to keep the feeling going, not let it disappear

I received your letter, though the information's clear
I want to keep the feeling going, not let it disappear

@SONG: Sword of the East


A starless night
Older than death
The sand dunes of life
Hold their breath
My eyes are closed
Dreaming for you
The holy wars
Time will subdue

Hot desert winds
Never cease
Forgive their sins
Sword of the East

Your swords of steel
Have turned to guns
Your desert steed
Has been outrun
And now you hide
Under the night
To wait for dawn
To continue the fight

Hot desert winds
Never cease
Forgive their sins
Sword of the East

Hot desert winds
Never cease
Forgive their sins
Sword of the East

Gather up the fallen!

The children you bear
Are born into war
Their eyes of despair
Your generals ignore
So now you dream
Of mysterious lands
Warm blood of the past
Still flows in the sand

Hot desert winds
Never cease
Forgive their sins
Sword of the East

@SONG: TEN SECONDS OF FOREVER
( - Calvert - )
In the tenth second of forever, I thought of the
sea and a white yacht drifting...
In the ninth second of forever, I thought of a
leaf, a stone, the plastic fragment of the child's
toy...
In the eighth second of forver, I remembered a
warm room where voices played...
In the seventh second of forever, I thought of
the life I would not lead...
In the sixth second of forever, I saw your mouth
whispering something I could hear...
In the fifth second of forever, I thought of
the vermillion deserts of Mars, the jewelled
forests of Venus...
In the fourth second of forever, I could
remember nothing that I did not love...
In the third second of forever, I thought
of rain against a window and I thought of
the wind...
In the second second of forever, I thought
of the pair of broken shades lying on the
tarmac...
In the first and final second of forever, I
thought of the long past that had led to
now and never... never... never... never...

@SONG: They've Got Your Number


They got your number, they got your name
You are the one they will blame
Accused of being the leader of the pack
You are the one who wouldn't turn his back

They try everything, but it's all turned out the same
"They lied" you said, but you know that you will still be framed

They got your number, they got your name
They got your number, they got your name

Do you not now see what their problem is
They can't accept your solution
Though we all see that you pay the price
The rest of your days will be spent in seclusion

They try everything, but it's all turned out the same
"They lied" you said, but you know that you will still be framed

They got your number, they got your name
They got your number, they got your name

Time we left this world today
Time we left this world today
Time we left this world today
So many people seem to say
"Time we left this world today"
They watch you as you seem to say
"Time we left this world today"
They watch you as you walk the street
Cast sly glances at who you meet
Brain police are not far behind
Trying to make you lose your minds
Time we left this world today
Watch you as you walk the streets
Make you sit in your house and say
"Time we left this world today"
So many people seem to say
"Time we left this world today"

@SONG: TRANSDIMENSIONAL MAN
( - Brock - )
Where the speed of light breaks thro'
Changing shapes distort the view
Red rimmed stars, teardrops of light
I can vanish into the night

Chorus:
With laser eyes I will awake
Panic is the rule I make
Trace my background identikit
A source of light which shall emit

I see what no one fortells
I can travel down to hell
I know what is often said
Written in the book of the dead

I can travel anyway
With my energising ray
And I'll visit in your room
Appearing from within the gloom
Watch me take you in your dreams
Cascading irridescent light beams
Fingers curling in the sun
Reaching for what has begun

Suddenly I hear all your lies
See all the secrets of 1000 eyes
But you may laugh or gasp for breath
What is life and what is death

@SONG: Treadmill


I'm so distant and so cold
I've lived too long and I'm so old
I've tried so many different ways
I've watched each one of them decay

I can't expound before the ages
While we are leafing through the pages
The office blocks from which we march
The mirrored shades of the patriarch

Caught by streams of constant motion
Most of the workers have no notion
Sitting glued to computer screens
Fingers raised - " must finish the scene"
Lounge lizards in penthouse flats
May soon find out where it's at
They gnaw away our hard earned pay
We walk the treadmill every day

I'm so distant and so cold
I've lived too long and I'm so old
I've tried so many different ways
I've watched each one of them decay

I can't expound before the ages
While we are leafing through the pages
The office block from which we march
The mirrored shades of the Patriarch

Your finger is on the button
But whose got your soul?

Can you tell the difference?

Ha Ha You can't get better
     Talk, Talk, Hard Sell, Come on down the price is hell
Hit pain where it hurts

Don't hold back

( - House - Brock - Calvert - King - )
Shoals of dead fish float on the lakes,
but Uncle Sam's on Mars
And science is making the same mistakes,
but Uncle Sam's on Mars
No one down here knows how to work the brakes,
but Uncle Sam's on Mars

Uncle Sam's on Mars, Uncle Sam's on Mars, Uncle Sam's on
Mars, he's on Mars

Layers of smoke in the atmosphere have made the earth
too hot to bear
The Earth might be a desert soon, America has left
the Moon

Uncle Sam's on Mars, Uncle Sam's on Mars, Uncle Sam's on
Mars, he's on Mars

He's digging for dreams in the red sand
He's got his bucket and spade in his left hand
He's digging for dreams
He's looking for life

What's he doing out there?
He's looking for life
Looking for life
There may be life out there

(Nixon to Armstrong - July 21st 1969:)
I'm talking to you by telephone from the Oval Room in the White House.
And this certainly must be the most exciting telephone
call ever made here on Earth.  I just can't tell
you how proud we all are.  For every American this
has to be the proudest day of their lives.  And
for people all over the world, I'm sure they too
join with us in recognising what a tremendous
achievement this is. For one priceless moment
in the whole history of Man......

MacDonalds Hamburger

And he's looking for life
Looking for life to wind up
He's looking for life to stamp out
He's looking for life to grind out
He's looking for life, so mind out

I hope you brought your credit card with you, and I hope you know how to
drive on these long, lonely freeways and intersections we've got up
here.  We've got two cars in the garage, two cars in the garage, and
drum-majorettes in white ankle socks and baton twirling on Sundays.
We've got stripes and the stars and Uncle Sam's on, Uncle Sam's on, Uncle
Sam's on, Mars....

I'm society's cancer
I'm a two-tone panther
So let's not talk of love and flowers
And things that don't explode
We've used up all of our magic powers
Trying to do it in the road

I'm a political bandit
And you don't understand it
You took my dream and canned it
It is not the way I planned it
I'm society's destructor
I'm a petrol bomb constructor
I'm a cosmic light conductor
I'm the people's debt collector
So watch out Mr. Business Man
Your empire's about to blow
I think you'd better listen, man
In case you did not know

I wonder what this means
Clouds forming into swords
Shining like I've never seen

Words written in the sky
Tell me, could this be a dream?
Silently, pilots are circling
Waiting for the unforseen
Red alert goes through the world
The heavens are opening
Run to the shelter nearest you
Our planet's running out of steam

Waiting for tomorrow
Hiding from tomorrow
Waiting for tomorrow
Hide from all our sorrows

Moon turning red, trees are dead
I wonder what this means
Clouds have changed to sheets of mist
Like I've never seen

Waiting for tomorrow
Hiding from tomorrow
Waiting for tomorrow
Hide from all our sorrows

Stars are fading from the sky
Tell me, could this be a dream?
Silently, pilots land
Waiting for the unforseen
Waiting for the unforseen
Waiting for the unforseen......

We are standing on the edge
On the edge of time
We are standing on the edge
On the edge of time
We are the warriors at the edge of time
We walk hand in hand with horror
We ride side by side with death
We are the warriors at the end of time
Over poisoned crystal deserts
Where the ruined towers shout
We march towards our dying scarlet sun.
Death
Death to life!
Death!
Death to time!
We bring sweet destruction now to everything.
In our mirrored flashing armor
In our secret, hideous helms
We are the Angels of our ruin
And we climb obsidian mountains
On our final, dreadful quest
Crossing lakes which cry with pain as we pass by
Death to all things living!
Holy death will cleanse the world!
Death, our standard!
Death, our only joy
We are the Warriors at the edge of time
Death to air and fire and water
Death to light and earth and sound
Death to anger, love and sadness
Death to death... and time... and space.
And dead horses and dead riders
Seek the last retreats of life
Life betrayed us and we slay it
Corpses locked in battle
Dancing at the Edge of Time
It's cold at the edge of time
So cold on the edge of time

We are Humanity's fire to burn the waste to the finest ash
We are the wind which will blow the ash away
As if it had never existed
We will destroy those Enemies
But we must first know the Enemies
And the Enemies are the devils that hide in our minds
And make us less than happy
They make us less than happy
We are the warriors at the edge of time
We are the veterans of a savage truth
We are the lost
We are the last
We are the betrayed
We are the betrayed
We are the betrayed................

Drifting through the wastelands of sleep

Escape in sleep from all of your sorrows
And then I can reach out for your touch
Am I asking for too much?

@SONG: THE WATCHER
( - Kilminster - )
We are looking in on you now
What do you think you can do now
You're very small from way out here
The last thing you will feel is fear
I gave you the chance to do the right thing
I gave you the chance to do the bright thing
Now our sense is all disgusted
Re-affirm you can't be trusted
A world imprisoned screams with pain
There are no leaders you can blame
Your avarice has destroyed your sphere
And there's no room for you out here
This is the end now.

@SONG: WE TOOK THE WRONG STEP
( - Brock - )
Think about the things that we should have done before
The way things are going the end is about to fall.
We took the wrong step years ago
We took the wrong step years ago
We took the wrong step years ago
Take a look around and see the warnings close at hand
Already weeds are writing their scriptures in the sand
We took the wrong step years ago
We took the wrong step years ago
The morning sun is rising, casting rays across the land,
Already nature's calling, take heed of the warning,
We took the wrong step years ago
We took the wrong step years ago
We took the wrong step years ago

@SONG: WEB WEAVER
( - Brock - )
Larynx cries no longer heard
A chord was struck that chilled the nerve
It froze the time that we all lived
The roles reversed to downward spin
Is life finished or hung within
The voices pleading went unheard
And shattered membranes of our lives
Hung suspended from the hives
Where the harmony the sad voices waned

@SONG: WELCOME TO THE FUTURE
( - Calvert - )
Welcome to the oceans in a labeled can,
Welcome to the dehydrated lands,
Welcome to the south police parade,
Welcome to the neo-golden age,
Welcome to the days you've made
You are welcome
You are welcome
Welcome
Welcome
You are welcome
You are welcome.

@SONG: When the Going Gets Tough


Way out in the jungle things aren't bright
Looks like the natives are preparing to fight
Sharpen their spears and rapping their shields
It's time for the white man to take to the fields

You know the saying folks

But just a minute what's caused all the fuss?
Police have blown in and made a big bust
All that coca chewing and all that weed
They've scooped the lot, a dastardly deed

When the going gets tough, the tough get going
When the going gets tough, the tough get going
When the going gets tough, the tough get going........

So what's the score? Now it's lost
An empty plane, who'll cover the cost?
Fake a deal with the FBI
Flying guns, they'll turn a blind eye

You know the saying folks:

When the going gets tough, the tough get going
When the going gets tough, the tough get going
When the going gets tough, the tough get going........

Who's gonna pay for all this?
No more coca chewing
No more smoking that weed
What are we gonna do?
We're all gonna turn into seeds
Blown off into space
And what can we do?
No one will save the Human Race

When the going gets tough, the tough get going
When the going gets tough, the tough get going
When the going gets tough, the tough get going........

@SONG: WHO'S GONNA WIN THE WAR
( - Brock - )
Lonely figures waiting, shadows on the hill
Looking into valleys where everything is still
Only death is lurking, the creeping sickness waits
So who's gonna win the war, now
Who's gonna win the war, now
Who's gonna win the, who's gonna win the
Who's gonna win the war
Radiation wastelands in the setting sun
Dust clouds they are gathering to obliterate the guns
Already weeds are writing their scriptures in the sand
So who's gonna win the war, now
Who's gonna win the war, now
Who's gonna win the, who's gonna win the
Who's gonna win the war

@SONG: WINGS

( - Davey -)

I could see their dying note
In the sky that is so old
I remember where they once flew
Where they sang to the morning dew
Now their wings are soaked in oil
Caged wings that can't unfurl
No longer do we hear them sing
No longer do we hear the fluttering
Of wings

Underneath the iron bird
Their song cannot be heard
Above the human sound
Above the poisoned ground

@SONG: THE WIZARD BLEW HIS HORN

The Great Hound Barked
And the world turned white
The Great Hound Sighed
And the forest died
The Wizard Blew His Horn
The Wizard Blew His Horn

The snow snake hissed
And the world turned round
The snow snake grinned
In his fine cold sin
When The Wizard Blew His Horn
The Wizard Blew His Horn

The horse wept blood
And the earth did groan
The tall horse reared
>>From a lake of tears
To seek a Champion
To seek a Champion

The world was bleak
And the Earth did fear
The Wizard's Horn
The magic Horn
So it screamed for a champion
It screamed for a champion

The eagle laughed
And the world grew black
It stretched giant claws
And it snatched the Law
And the Champion stirred in his sleep
The Champion stirred in his sleep

@SONG: Words of a Song


Switch on the TV, look at the screen
Money for a Rolls or a washing machine
I pay my money and I pay my rent
But everyday it's always spent
Maybe it starts to be the same
Look out the window and it starts to rain
Someone is saying "it's time to die"
Send us some money and I'll tell you why
I'll tell you why

Broken cars in the street
Do you really want to eat?
Do you need all these things that you see on the screen?
I drive my car when i go home
It's hidden somewhere in the words of a song

I pay my stamps and I pay my tax
But it's not working and that's a fact

@SONG: YOU KNOW YOU'RE ONLY DREAMING
( - Brock - )
One more touch and then you'll see a world of
hidden mystery,
Visions of you know you're only dreaming
Colours change, I stand upright
Screaming souls in the night
Visions of you know you're only dreaming
Chaos all within my mind
Try to reach anI wanna be with my own kind
Visions of you know you're only dreaming.

@SONG: YOU SHOULDN'T DO THAT
( - Brock - Turner - )
You shouldn't do that, should do that
You try so hard to get somewhere,
They put you down, and cut your hair,
They're saying you're no good, they just don't care,
You're trying to fly, you get nowhere,
You get no air, you're getting aware.
You shouldn't do that, should do that.
You want so hard to get somewhere,
With trees and flowers growing there,
If you can't make it you're going spare,
You're trying to fly, you get nowhere,
You get no air, you're getting aware.

@SONG: YOU'D BETTER BELIEVE IT
( - Brock - )
I wandered far in lands unknown until I came to
my earthly home
Far away I found life's dream drifting on a silver
beam,
You'd better believe it, It's so easy to say.
Travelling at twice the speed of light, Orion's stars
are high tonight
The gentle madness has touched my hand, now
I'm just a cosmic man.

@SONG: ZAROZINIA
Fire of destiny
Fire of reality
Zarozinia
The burning of flesh
Flames loving caress
Zarozinia
Water from a thousand tears
Feeling of a thousand years
Flow over me
But the dream it is too real
Cold reality of steel
Zarozinia
Hurt and wounded you return
But deep down feel the anger burn
Zarozinia
