The Fall And Rise Of...
Ultrasonicmetaglide
Bum, bum, bum, bum, bum
Bum, bum, bum, bum, bum
Bum, bum, bum, bum, bum
Bum
Bum, bum, bum, bum, bum
Bum, bum, bum, bum, bum
Bum, bum, bum, bum, bum
Bum
Goldfish Song
My goldfish died of boredom
Never seemed to like the swim
And though her memory was short-term
She remembered everything
And no one saw her soul rise up and fly
Oh
A friend’s dog jumped from an upstairs bedroom window
Felt like one unhappy home
And all he wanted was someone to play with
But poor, sweet, loving dog felt so alone
And no one saw his soul rise up and fly
Oh, oh
Dear parents show how much you love your children
And if you can just try to be around
When things seem quite tough be glad you’re with them
They look to you to keep them safe and sound
But if you can’t be with them as you’d like
Don’t get too sad, just call them
Be glad they are alive
I Forgot My Big Idea
I just forgot my big idea
It was great
I’d hesitate
To say the best one I’ve had for years
I just forgot my big idea
Now it’s dust
And I must
Try to make it reappear
I just forgot the meaning of life
It was there in my hands
Slow Down
Slow down
You move too fast
Running all around just like
You’ve got a rocket up your arse
And you’re not going to be the star of my show
Oh no
Slow Down
You drive too fast
You can’t see the little children
Behind parked cars that you pass
And you’re not going to be the king of the road
Oh no
Cos dreams they explode
When you’re living with a heavy load
Slow down, slow down
I see your career has taken off
And the quality’s not what it was
Slow down some time
Slow down
You move too fast
Running all around just like
You’ve got a rocket up your arse
And you’re not going to be the star of my show
Cos stars they explode
I guess this comes as quite a blow
Wholetoner
(Instrumental)
I Will Never Hurt
I will never hurt
Will never hurt
I will never hurt
Anaesthetic for a heart
Though metal wings they take you so far away
I can feel you…
I will never hurt
Anaesthetic for a heart
I will never hurt
What remains of a good heart
Though metal wings they take me under
Combobulatory Explorations
Great discoveries
From combobulatory explorations!
Trip In D
(Instrumental)
Old Magick
This old magic’s gone
Systematic devastation
Oh but you’ll come back
To haunt me
Mother Nature’s son
Hell-bent on oblivion
Oh but you’ll come back
To haunt me
Mother Nature comfort me
Mother Nature comfort me
Rise And Fall
(Instrumental)
Billennia
Strong enough to survive
Modern life
Strong enough to withstand
Hands of man
Heaven came and passed away
Apple strawberry afternoon
Planetary revolution
Strong enough to endure
Billennia
Billennia
Billennia
A Cortical Affair
When dreams pass by and faces drift away
And memories of loved ones start to fade
When daylight burns out all but every trace
Of all but that lifelong familiar face
I love you, oh so dear
But now you’re not so clear
A ghost by day invisible just air
Lies dormant in this cortical affair
What consciousness extracts the daily ground
Fills up with empty tantalizing sound
And when we meet again
On slumb’rous old terrain
I’ll hold you, oh so dear
And love you whilst you’re here
Awesomne View
Deceitful Conservative bastards
Insult my intellect
Suck the place dry
Blind to beauty
Quite unaware of
Magnificent views
