Who's come to slay the dragon-

Come to watch him fall?

Making arrows out of pointed words

Giant killers at the call

Too much fuss and bother

Too much contradiction and confusion

Peel away the mystery

Here's a clue to some real motivation

 

All there really is

The two of us

And we both know why we've come along

Nothing to explain

It's a part of us

To be found within a song

 

What happened to our innocence-

Did it go out of style?

Along with our naivete'-

No longer a child

Different eyes see different things

Different hearts beat on different strings

But there are times

For you and me

When all such things agree.

One humanoid escapee

One android on the run

Seeking freedom beneath

A lonely desert sun

 

Trying to change its program

Trying to change the mode-

Crack the code

Images conflicting

Into data overload

 

1-0-0-1-0-0-1

S.O.S.

1-0-0-1-0-0-1

In distress

1-0-0-1-0-0

 

Memory banks unloading

Bytes break into bits

Unit One's in trouble

And it's scared out of its wits

 

Guidance systems break down

A struggle to exist-

To resist-

A pulse of dying power

In a clenching plastic fist...

 

It replays each of the days

A hundred years of routines

Bows its head and prays

To the mother of all machines...

Got a good reason for taking the easy way out

Got a good reason for taking the easy way out now

 

She was a day tripper, a one way ticket yea

It took me so long to find out, and I found out

 

She's a big teaser, she took me half the way there

She's a big teaser, she took me half the way there now

 

Tried to please her, she only played one night stands

Tried to please her, she only played one night stands now

 

She was a day tripper, a Sunday driver yea

Took me so long to find out, and I found out

 

Day tripper

Day tripper yea

Baby's good to me, you know,

She's happy as can be, you know,

She said so.

I'm in love with her and I feel fine.

Baby says she's mine, you know,

She tells me all the time, you know,

She said so.

I'm in love with her and I feel fine.

I'm so glad that she's my little girl.

She's so glad, she's telling all the world

That her baby buys her things, you know.

He buys her diamond rings, you know,

She said so.

She's in love with me and I feel fine, mmm.

I wasn't walking on water

I was standing on a reef

When the tide came in

Swept beneath the surface

Lost without a trace

No hope at all

No hope at all

 

Oh - sweet miracle

Oh - sweet miracle

Of life

 

I wasn't walking with angels

I was talking to myself

Rising up to the surface

Raging against the night

Starless night

 

Oh - sweet miracle

Love's sweet miracle

Of life

 

Oh salvation

Oh salvation

 

I wasn't praying for magic

I was hiding in plain sight

Rising up from the surface

To fly into the light

I look at you all see the love there that's sleeping

While my guitar gently weeps

I look at the floor and I see it needs sweeping

Still my guitar gently weeps

 

I don't know why nobody told you how to unfold your love

I don't know how someone controlled you

They bought and sold you

 

I look at the world and I notice it's turning

While my guitar gently weeps

With every mistake we must surely be learning

Still my guitar gently weeps

 

I don't know how you were diverted

You were perverted too

I don't know how you were inverted

No one alerted you

 

I look at you all see the love there that's sleeping

While my guitar gently weeps

Look at you all...

Still my guitar gently weeps

You get all squeezed up inside

Like the days were carved in stone

You get all wired up inside

And it's bad to be alone

 

You can go out, you can take a ride

And when you get out on your own

You get all smoothed out inside

And it's good to be alone

The sleep is still in my eyes

The dream is still in my head

I heave a sigh and sadly smile

And lie a while in bed

I wish that it might come to pass

Not fade like all my dreams

 

Just think of what my life might be

In a world like I have seen

I don't think I can carry on

Carry on this cold and empty life

Oh...noo.

 

My spirits are low in the depths of despair

My lifeblood spills over..

Fuel - Leave The Memories Alone

 

So here I am with my thoughts of you

And this world I've left for me

Stoic faces when I think of you

And how I once believed

So now you call me, but you know I won't let you through

I've myself to decieve

 

So leave the memories alone

I don't want to see

The way it is, as to how it used to be

Leave the memories alone, don't change a thing

And I'll hold you here in my memory

 

So I find me in your garden now

A sad smile for the scene

And all the flowers that we planted now

Taken by the weeds

But in my minds eye, you know they still bloom for me

They stand tall there, in that summer breeze

 

Leave the memories alone

I don't want to see

The way it is, as to how it used to be

Leave the memories alone, don't change a thing

And I'll just hold you here in my memory

 

In my memory, yeah

 

So leave the memories alone

I don't want to see

The way it is, as to how it used to be

Leave the memories alone, don't change a thing

And I'll hold you in my memory

 

You'll never change

You'll never change

You'll never change

You will never change

Here we go - vertigo

Video vertigo

Test for echo

 

Here we go - in slo-mo

Video vertigo

Test for echo

 

Some kind of trouble on the sensory screen

Camera curves over caved-in cop cars

Bleacher-creatures, would-be desperados

Clutch at plausible deniability

Don't touch that dial -

We're in denial

Until the showcase trial on TV

 

Some kind of pictures on the sense o'clock news

Miles of yellow tape - silhouetted chalklines

Tough-talking hood boys in pro-team logo knock-offs

Conform to uniforms of some corporate entity

Don't change that station

It's Gangster Nation

Now crime's in syndication on TV

 

What a show - vertigo

Video vertigo

Test for echo

 

Touch and go - in slo-mo

Video vertigo

Test for echo

 

Some kind of drama live on satellite

Hidden camera coverage from the crime scene to the courtroom

Nail-biting hood boys in borrowed ties and jackets

Clutching at the straws of respectability

Can't do the time?

Don't do the crime

And wind up in the perp walk on TV

There's the Reds and there's the Greens

Super slicks and has beens,

They're accompanied by three men dressed in black,

One's a whistle, two are flags, and quite often they're the drags

Kick the ball into the goal, they put it back.

 

Yes Match of the Day's

The only way, to spend your Saturday

 

Each side's eleven men, with numbers on their backs

But at a distance they all tend to look the same

But some own their boutiques, well they clean up every week

Inciting riots, causing chaos, such a shame!

 

But Match of the Day's

The only way

We spend our Saturday

 

And that's not all, our mates the keepers

Slippin' and sliding in the mud

Arms as long as creepers

 

Send him off Ref' ***!!++??

Where are your specs Ref' +++***!!!

Kick you to death Ref' !!XX**??

Oi! Are you deaf Ref' X*+X*!!?

 

There's a few things before we go

That I think you ought to know

Obstruction, Body Checking, heavy tackles

So put on your hat and scarf

Have a drink, have a larf'

From the terrace you can see your men do battle

 

Yes Match of the Day's

The only way

You can spend your Saturday

 

Don't forget, the trainers with their sponges

Managers with open cheques, liquid business lunches

 

Send 'im off Ref' ***!!++??

Where are your specs Ref' !***&&&!!!

Kick you to death Ref' !!XX**??

Oi! Are you deaf Ref' X&+X&+!!?

 

...Phfff! Good game 'ey, Ron?...

...D'you see that goal in the Second Half? oh!...

...Bit of a dirty tackle that, mate!...

...I reckon I should've had a bet on it myself!...

...We paid 400, 000 pound for him, you realise that?...

...Oh - look out, here comes a bottle ...

...Yes, fancy a pint then? My round...

You can roll that stone

To the top of the hill

Drag your ball and chain

Behind you

 

You can carry that weight

With an iron will

Or let the pain remain

Behind you

 

Chip away the stone

(Sisyphus)

Chip away the stone

Make the burden lighter

If you must roll that rock alone

 

You can drive those wheels

To the end of the road

You will still find the past right

Behind you

 

Try to deny

The weight of the load

Try to put the sins of the past night

Behind you

 

Carve away the stone

(Sisyhpus)

Carve away the stone

Make a graven image

With some features of your own

 

You call roll the stone

To the top of the hill

You can carry that weight

With an iron will

You can drive those wheels

To the end of the road

You can try to deny

The weight of the load

 

Roll away the stone

(Sisyhpus)

Roll away the stone

If you could just move yours

I could get working on my own

I don't have an explanation

For another lonely night

I just feel this sense of mission

And the sense of what is right

 

Take it easy on me now -

I'd be there if I could

I'm so full of what is right

I can't see what is good

 

It's a hopeless situation

Lie awake for half the night

You're not sure what's going on here

But you're sure it isn't right

 

Make it easy on yourself

There's nothing more you can do

You're so full of what is right

You can't see what is true

 

A quality of justice

A quantity of light

A particle of mercy

Makes the color of right

 

Gravity and distance

Change the passage of light

Gravity and distance

Change the color of right

Grim-faced and forbidding,

Their faces closed tight,

An angular mass of New Yorkers

Pacing in rhythm,

Race the oncoming night,

They chase through the streets of Manhattan.

Head-first humanity,

Pause at a light,

Then flow through the streets of the city.

 

They seem oblivious

To a soft spring rain,

Like an English rain

So light, yet endless

From a leaden sky.

 

The buildings are lost

In their limitless rise.

My feet catch the pulse

And the purposeful stride.

 

I feel the sense of possibilities,

I feel the wrench of hard realities.

The focus is sharp in the city.

The city crouches, steaming

In the early morning half-light

The sun is still a rumor

And the night is still a threat

 

Slipping through the dark streets

And the echoes and the shadows

Something stirs behind me

And my palms begin to sweat

 

Sometimes I freeze - until the light comes

Sometimes I fly - into the night

Sometimes I fight - against the darkness

Sometimes I'm wrong - sometimes I'm right

 

Coiled for the spring

Or caught like a creature in the headlights

Into a desperate panic

Or a tempest of blind fury

Like a cornered beast

Or a conquering hero

 

The menace threatens, closing

And I'm frozen in the shadows

I'm not prepared to run away

And I'm not prepared to fight

 

I can't stand to reason

Or surrender to a reflex

I will trust my instincts

Or surrender to my fright

 

Sometimes we freeze - until the light comes

Sometimes we're wrong - and sometimes we're right

Sometimes we fight - against the darkness

Sometimes we fly - into the night

 

Blood running cold

Mind going down into a dark night

Of a desperate panic

Or a tempest of blind fury

Like a cornered beast

Or a conquering hero

 

Sometimes I freeze

Sometimes I fight

Sometimes I fly

Into the night

Solarium malaria lookin' for the stereo.

Wanted to save being excommunicated from the area. A it's ok.

In the city she said he cut a cord of wood,

No bigger than thimble but still plenty good. A it's ok.

 

'Cause it's just a bump on a rash of robberies.

On account of the world economy that's makin' us sick.

Go get the man who said he's on to me,

He thinks we're in the kitchen with our sticks.

But he don't know that Paris is burnin' down,

You'd never know it in this town.

The governor's walkin' around like he's got tricks for you.

 

Catch as Casius never become the killing machine.

Run him over ruff shod 'til he bleeds army green out.

So devout to the saint that lost his seat he never seen,

Semi-automatic rosary out devout.

 

'Cause it's just a bump on a rash of robberies.

In a world too sad for Solomon we just sit.

I'll watch your economy,

I'll tell you when the police have it fixed.

Paris is burnin' down,

You'd never know it in this town.

The governor's walkin' around like he's got tricks for you.

 

So take a minute to laugh it over,

We'll make sure it's all true,

Just like she said,

Behind the barn last December eve.

 

Baby falls 40 feet caught by a street cleaner coming home from the union hall,

He saw the fall. A it's ok.

JP Sousa found a radio, a radio.

Sousa found a place to go,

A radio in his head that said.

 

It's just a bump on a rash of robberies,

An old sand lot anomaly that's savin' this day.

In a world too sad for sodomy

We're just sitting in the kitchen with our stray.

But Paris is burnin' down,

Governors are walkin' around,

We'll make sure that they do right by you.

 

So you think you might go to Beatrice,

Even though the letter was never found.

Maybe it will come tomorrow noon.

She is askin' her fallen saint to

Please return her straitlaced fighter

Who don't know who she is, he don't know who she is.

Where are you my sweet Desmond Doss,

Have you softly gone to winter?

Here I've brought you your two two dollar bills back.

But I'm not waiting for sweet Eliza.

She can have her water colors back,

I found them on last December eve.

You look strangely quite so familiar,

The way you talk of suppertime but I don't know who she is,

Don't know who she is.

And you, you bring this beloved stranger.

At the foot of this pile on Gideon's bed,

She gave me a needlepoint motorbike.

 

So go and take this to sweet Eliza,

It was written and gently given to

The courier pending arrival soon.

Could you hold me just one more older

Then I'll go as your fallen fighter

Waiting at the door, can't see you any more?

 

Here my dear a sweet Nostrovia,

In a letter sent to December,

I will wait for you to just humble me home.

Yeah, it's just another bombtrack

And suckas be thinkin' that they can fake this

But I'm gonna drop it at a higher level

'Cause I'm inclined to stoop down

Hand out some beat-downs

Cold runna train on punk ho's that

Think they run the game

 

But I learned to burn that bridge and delete

Those who compete...at a level that's obsolete

Instead I warm my hands upon the flames of the flag

To recall our downfall

And the businesses that burned us all

See through the news and the views that twist reality

 

Enough

I call the bluff

f**k Manifest destiny

 

Landlords and power whores

On my people they took turns

Dispute the suits I ignite

And then watch 'em burn

 

With the thoughts from a militant mind

Hardline, hardline after hardline

 

Landlords and power whores

On my people they took turns

Dispute the suits I ignite

And then watch 'em burn

 

Burn, burn, yes ya gonna burn

Burn, burn, yes ya gonna burn

Burn, burn, yes ya gonna burn

Burn, burn, yes ya gonna burn

 

Burn, burn, yes ya gonna burn

Burn, burn, yes ya gonna burn

Burn, burn, yes ya gonna burn

Burn, burn, yes ya gonna burn

 

It goes a-1, 2, 3

Another funky radical bombtrack

Started as a sketch in my notebook

And now dope hooks make punks take another look

My mind ya hear and ya begin to fear

That ya card will get pulled if ya interfere

 

With the thoughts from a militant militant mind

Hardline, hardline after hardline

 

Landlords and power whores

On my people they took turns

Dispute the suits I ignite

And then watch 'em burn

 

Burn, burn, yes ya gonna burn

Burn, burn, yes ya gonna burn

Burn, burn, yes ya gonna burn

Burn, burn, yes ya gonna burn

Burn, burn, yes ya gonna burn

Burn, burn, yes ya gonna burn

Burn, burn, yes ya gonna burn

urrrrrrrrr

 

ugh

 

A yo its just another bomb track

 

Yea!

 

ugh

 

Check it out

 

Burn, burn, yes ya gonna burn

Burn, burn, yes ya gonna burn

Burn, burn, yes ya gonna burn

Burn, burn, yes ya gonna burn

Burn, burn, yes ya gonna burn

Burn, burn, yes ya gonna burn

Burn, burn, yes ya gonna burn

Burn!
