Tiny bombs
Fall like nickel rain
Coming down
Everytime we're playing sending shivers out
Like a cable car
Cable snap!
Scarier than falling on a six tonne sonic
And I'm running on atomic
I've tried to be so quiet
But cable cars convince me I fly
I just deliver the facts
I've been a fool
But you know
I wouldn't kill for you
Calm yourself
Everybody settle down
I'm first up on the microphone
I'm guiltier than OJ with a taste for sound
Bigger than the bomber
I'm the hurricane spinning across a mexican village
If the first wave don't get ya
The chorus it will take you apart
Why don't we lay down the tracks?
I've been a fool
But you know
I wouldn't kill for you
Let’s go
Let’s go
Let’s go
Let’s go
Die die
If I could turn the tables
I like turntables
If I could turn the tables
I like turntables
If I could turn the tables
I like turntables
If I could turn the tables
I like turntables
Seems kid you’ve got soul
I just deliver the facts
I've been a fool but you know
Why don’t we lay down some tracks?
I've been a fool
But you know
I wouldn't kill for you
Kill for you
Go, go, go, go
Kill for you
No, no, no, no

I put it to you
How exploited do you feel?
I put it to you
You are not as determined as you once were
Silence the critics I may have found the answer
Cancel your subscription to love's young dream
Your duty starts here, end this guilt ridden sleep
Cos like it or not I'm a map of the consequence
Silence the critics I may have found the answer
This race is never won
Just listen for once
You must stop
You must stop
This is not
Revolution rock you hear
Revolution rock
This is not
Revolution rock you hear
It's something much less complex
Wake up - take hold
You should admit the problems we have
Focus, on the truth at hand
But never expect this to save you, to save you
Just break the news
Cut the explanations in half
I put it to you
This change could be instrumental
I put this to you
All in all I can sense you've been blanked from the outset
I want you to know that you are perfect
Perfect
But do you remember how cold it was?
I pulled you tight - yet you still kept your distance
Silence the critics I may have found the answer
This is a mission call
Send it out
Send it out
Stop the rot
Stop the rot
This is not
Revolution rock you hear
Revolution rock
This is not
Revolution rock you hear
It's something much less complex
Wake up wake up - take hold
You should admit the problems we have
Focus, on the truth at hand
But never expect this to save you, to save you
Wake up wake up - we must take hold
You should admit the problems we have
Focus, on the truth at hand
But never expect this to save you, to save you
Just break the news
Silence the critics I may have found the answer
I put it you
How much longer can we continue?
I put it to you
How much does it hurt to ask this question?
I put it to you
We must not go quietly
We must not go quietly
We must not go quietly
This is not
Revolution rock you hear
Revolution rock
This is not
Revolution rock you hear
It's something much less complex
Wake up wake up - take hold
You should admit the problems we have
Focus, on the truth at hand
But never expect this to save you, to save you
Wake up wake up - we must take hold
You should admit the problems we have
Focus, on the truth at hand
But never expect me to save you, to save you
Go
No
Just break the news

Underground Queen
03:30
|
|||
|
I never wanted to go
I only wanted to stay
And in the morning come alive
And I wanna be holding you
It's everywhere that you go
And every word that you say
That brings it home to me
Oh no, oh no, oh no, oh no
And now it's only you and me
I've done enough to make you stay
You'll always be my regret
In every sense of that word
And when I try to recollect
I see snapshots, books of dreams
You were my underground queen
Could you plucked from your scene?
Of trust in circumstance?
Oh no, oh no, oh no, oh no
And now it's only you and me
I've done enough to make you stay
Although I feel it just the same
That's not enough to make me stay
And still I can't explain,
Going home a week early
Broke those gifts you made me
One by one, they seemed to come apart
Fragment, divide
And the truth is with time
Promises - can break so easily
Oh no, oh no, oh no, oh no
Oh no, oh no, oh no, oh no
And now it's only you and me
I've done enough to make you stay
And though I feel it just the same
That's not enough to make me stay

Summer Ends
02:25
|

This is the way I think the summer should end
This is the wave before the kick in the chest
I'm pouring over the pages of that boring book
You left by my window
So I took a look
Who told you that
I'm so confused?
And oh my god
That's not good news
This season's girl
With the dirty nails
Has passed the test
Now her sheets seem so, so stale
Have you seen her car kids?
It's so cool
You should see her haircut
It breaks all the rules
Do you think that we could try
Maybe we could try again?
I'm sending a message to the rest of the world
The world is empty or haven't you heard
I've opened the closet on the dying breed
Bred too fast from atomic seed
Who told you that?
I'm so confused
I know that angle doesn't wash with you
The tension's tight
Too tight to fail
I sold your books and clothes and read your mail
Have you seen her car kids?
It's so cool
You should see her haircut
It breaks all the rules
Do you think that we could try
Maybe we could try again?
This is a recipe for disaster
Two parts anger
One part lust
I hope against hope
My cheque’s in the mail
I’ll pop another vitamin
And hope that’s done enough
This is the way I think the summer should end
This is the wave before the kick in the chest
I'm pouring over the pages of that boring book
You left by my window
So I took a look
Who told you that
I'm so confused?
And oh my god
That's not good news
This season's girl
With the dirty nails
Has passed the test
Now her sheets seem so, so stale
Way I think the summer should end
This is the way I think the summer should end
This is the way I think the summer should end
This is the way I think the summer should end

End Of The Night
04:25
|
|||
|
They're throwing people on the backs of trucks
Then they drive them to the edge of town
Where they make them dye their hair jet black
And they push them in a club of sound
Where they play the un-american charts
There's no chance of going home alone
You're as likely as a headache
And everybody knows
You've taken off your clothes once before
Still you think that you're a nightingale
Cos you wanna sing the songs of night
But the strings that you're connected to
Have got you trapped in this car crash tight
When you're cruising home an hour from now
All the DJs have all gone to bed
You're as smashed up as a heartache
It's obvious to me
You've taken off your clothes once before
Got another bad connection
Growing in my mind
Got a nervous feeling
That I might be right this time
It's just a touch of light
That's at the end of the night
Splitting into fractions
Take solace from the heavens
We are smaller than the night
Details, captured in a photograph
Looked upon by NASA
Trying to find a brand new moon
And everybody feels
Anticipation grows
As week ends
Got another bad connection
Growing in my mind
Got a nervous feeling
That I might be right this time
It's just a touch of light
It's just a touch of light
That's at the end of the night

Return, return, return to me
My life, my dreams
How will I learn to love again?
I've got to try to resuscitate what has been lost
Yeah I sowed the seed but I've counted the cost!
And who will convince my unborn son
Of all the damage you have done?
And if I could make a list of all my regrets
You would be at the top of every page
Highlighted in red
And if any affirmation were needed
That I was doing the right thing
Read 'missed opportunity through the fear of failure'
And it strikes me now so very very clearly
That the world has always centered on your demands
And can't stand your company a single second longer,
A single second longer
So fuck you and your opposite sex
Fuck you and your opposite
Fuck you and your opposite sex
Cos after all, what has this argument changed?
List for me the ultimate transparencies if you will
The things that make us tick
That cheapest of thrills
One!
I love you too much
Two!
I can change
Third - and most contemptible of all
It's only ever been you
There’s never been anyone but you
Honey - it's only ever been you
So fuck you and your opposite sex
Fuck you and your opposite sex
Fuck you and your opposite sex
Cos after all, what has this argument changed?
Changed
Huh!
Huh!
Go!
Go!
Go!
Go!
Two, three, huh!
So fuck you and your opposite sex
So fuck you and your opposite sex
So fuck you and your opposite sex - huh!
Cos after all, what has this argument changed?
Changed
Changed
Changed
Huh!

The Boy You Love To Hate
02:39
|
|||
|
I'm the boy you love to hate
Pulled out of magazines and kicked around the bedroom floor
Take apart and dislocate
One shot of honesty can wake you up if you feel dying
Today, we have all these chances
Of which, we should take advantage
Once you took this boy to heart
But you can't stand me around you anymore
I fell down
But do we have to fall apart completely
I hit the ground
And everybody turned around discreetly
I couldn't sleep last night again
It's a room that's made for two
I'm the boy you love to hate
You put it on, but if you only were that brittle yeah!
A solution came too late
It comes to everyone and even if you don't expect it
Today - you should take these chances
Turn them to your own advantage
Once you took this boy to heart
But you can't stand me around you anymore
I fell down
But do we have to fall apart completely
I hit the ground
And everybody turned around discreetly
I couldn't sleep last night again
It's a room that's made for two
I fell down
But do we have to fall apart completely
I hit the ground
And everybody turned around discreetly
Today - we have all these chances
Of which we should take advantage
Today

Lead singer in a made up band
Don't you know that without them you'll manage
Road's easy if you've got no friends
There's no-one to blame when your hair won't untangle
Only said what you wanted to hear
To easy to mould you and melt you my dear,
I picked up my language from you
But falling for you is the last thing I should do
Falling for you is the last thing I should
Keep away from you as much as I can
Don't you know know you should fight for a better man
Couldn't move when I heard you sing
You whispered my name - and I bought you that ring
So alone, so careless, so locked in your stare
Got a blister and sand in my hair
I gave in, I lied, I ran out that's true
But falling for you is the last thing I should do
Falling for you is the last thing I should do
I once had future rehearsed
Then you came
And showed the faults within myself
I'm so bedazzled by design
And your detailed plans
So say you're meant for me?
So say I'm meant for you
Lead singer in a made up band
Don't you know that without you I'll manage
Still running when I hit the ground
Don't think I'll ever paint you out
Do you think we'll ever meet again?
So sad when I opened your letter
I'm sorry I hurt you
So mindless to do
But falling for you was all that I could do
But falling for you is the last thing I should do
But falling for you is the last thing I should do
But falling for you is the last thing I should do
Falling for you is the last thing I should do
Falling for you is the last thing I should

Interstate Five
01:17
|
|||
|
Nature fits and they don't have a function
Alone on interstate five
Broken lips
Nothing in appearance
Both arresting smiles
I'll wait for you
Consider our plans
In a long line distance
I'll be there to meet you
Wish I could break you in two
Discard what I've done to you
|
||||
10. |

We all know the rules by now
We’ve all heard enough about the suffering!
We all know how to live by these plans
And how to -
Break them
Go!
Read seven, seven
When I was born
Whom to trust, no-one!
And all this happens without consent
Much to my surprise
Read zero, zero
And an age misspent
I kept your bracelet
And all those letters that you sent
In the distance I see
An alchemist reaching for his gun
Go!
So you like hip hop?
Well I’ve got soul
Yet society dictates that I remain in control
As a quantum sits
In its rightful place
For one moment in time
And I cannot bear to watch this monument
Crack under capital strain
And I cannot believe that Pythagoras
Hid the truth and felt no shame
And to my mind there is a consequence
For every action, equal blame
For every god there is a censor - and a corporation gain
Go!
These are our numbers now
And this is our code
The threat is real
We have become
What we’ve been sold
This is a document
Of the equation
That brought us all down
Are you listening?
Read zero, zero and counting down
I see Oppenheimer - he is counting down
We’re built of fractions, chance, decisions
A multitude of concepts
Found in books no longer with us - thrown away
And now fusion is upon us
Even atoms must relent
I have memorised the contents
Of all those letters that you sent
These are our demands
Placed in sequence
Clear and sound
For every action
There is a future
Written down, written down
These are our numbers now
This is our code
The threat is real
We have become
What we’ve been sold
This is a document
Of the equation
That brought us all down
But are you listening?
We can, we cannot lie
We can, we cannot lie
We can, we cannot lie
We can, we cannot lie
We can
We can, we cannot lie
We can, we cannot lie
We can, we cannot lie
We can
We all know the rules by now
We’ve all heard enough about the
The suffering!
We all know how to live by these plans
And how to break them
Go!
These are our numbers now
This is our code
The threat is real
We have become
What we’ve been sold
This is a document
Of the equation
That brought us all down
That brought us all down

A Miracle Of Science
03:51

There's a light beaming gold around the world
What turns on boys should turn on girls
And I'm good at running up stairs at a very steep angle
Injury, injury, been falling on my head all fucking season
Still I try to break the code
Of a lifetime's selections and memories
Causing problems off the coast of England
Skinny boys, singing songs about their past
Never sold like this, so fast
Shot, shot, shot, shoot me down
From Radio City they’re sending out warnings of
War of the worlds, these war of the worlds
I'd never have fallen for something so obvious
Still I try to make the most
Of a lifetime's selections and memories
Just a big name
Who's top of the billing
I am not afraid - of what I’ll discover
I am not afraid
I’ve tried to break the code
Of a lifetime's selections and memories
I am not afraid - of repeating the last line
I am not afraid - of military magic
Because I am not afraid
I've gotta get a message
Getting messages so complicated
Complicated plans are always mine
It's a miracle of science
That we're here at all, we're here at all
With mathematic chance upon our side
So wash your mouth out honey
There's a light beaming gold around the world
What turns on boys should turn on girls
Girls
Girls
Girls
