Song 4 human

A beautiful life

The computer ate my brain
Now I function in naughts and ones
The scientist said I'm doing "alright"
But he doesn't know how it's done, how it's done

There's funny funny "Ha ha" lines
But everybody feeling down
Living with global politics will always make u frown
We're spinning on this little rock
Should be making us all feel high
Too much information, will always make u cry
So let it go, let it go

Man o man don't be so down
Live your life, live your life
Man o man don't be so down
Live your life and stand for love

We walk gently, under purple skies
Then fall asleep, "look, distant flickering windows"
This is no high; this dream was made from dust
The World turned 'round and looked me in the eye

Take a piece and live it while u can
Make your peace and give it while u can
All I do is smile when u make me cry
Run into the sun when u look so dry
I came back down, I came back down
And what a beautiful life

And London town looks beautiful in grey
All private life-still on the underground
Through camera wires we built our barricades

I float down-street; the shop fronts are all closed
And darkness seems to rest your weary mind
To be in Life is to be in Love
The buildings' spires, reaching up

Underground		Nifty
Through the air I hear the sound Stories going underground Through the airwaves fractured sound Noises going underground Outside of the radar's eye Under stairs, no passers by If u want to hear us try All good things are underground All the dreams that we can dream And all the things we want to be Hide behind the blinding lights 'Round the back and out of site All the sounds we will achieve And images we will conceive So come 'round to the house tonight All good things are underground Take me to the sound of the underground		I was nifty; I did quick shifty Down a backstreet alley, I never dilly-dally I parked my strange vehicle at the AutoMotel I saw no "faces" I was doing quite well I glided down G Street it was 10:24 The camera looked me over as I stood at the door I talked into the intercom, a woman replied The door slid open, I was safely inside 'Cos when you're dead, no one can mess with your head But no one seems to learn from what you've said So u might as well travel You might as well travel She was nifty, she asked if I was ready She swiped my little card and assigned my name She took me to a room full of robot devices I changed my clothes; I stepped into a circle A quick "shift-click", sensations in my belly The room disappeared and my eyes went blue I was standing in the street, it was 1932

Paranoia on the 14th floor		Marshmallow song
Your baby's crying the president's lying Are u distracted enough? Celebrities vying 'cos they can't stop buying Are u distracted enough? Eat the media, watch the war All your enemies are at your door It's paranoia on the 14th floor Are u distracted enough Are u distracted enough Jesus is sighing but he can't stop trying Are u distracted enough? Celebrities crying 'cos they can't stop dying Are u distracted enough? You're trying to run a jungle in your crocodile shoes Learn to dance you've got nothing to lose This is the 21st Century blues Are u distracted enough Are u distracted enough When all your fears are constant in my brain I've got to free the monkey's from the train Paranoia on the 14th floor		"That's the thing about supermarket music" she said "It sounds so cheesy, no matter how you use it" we laughed "One day this is where your songs will be played to the utter admiration of these scintillated shoppers as they buy their margarine and genetically modified runner beans" I talk to people drawn in thin lines When standing sideways disappear The cutout life for u and me they cried I didn't blame them for denying the fear When it is clear That transparency is all the rage these days There is no safety net where I come from Where once u do, your do is done Most of my friends they come from Marshmallow land, with marshmallow hands And carpet that doesn't scratch With tables and chairs to match

Man vanishes in bizarre automobile incident		Revolution in me
Ten o'clock on a Saturday evening Lying on my bed staring at the ceiling The bump and grind of the traffic as it goes by Everybody's going' out on a good time Why can't I put my finger on this feeling? Flap like a fish when my mind is reeling Tv's depressing, news is distressing I feel so alone I've never felt so alon When you're trapped in an automobile travelling two hundred miles an hour into the sunset What are u gonna do It's midnight; I'm still on my back so I call my friend She say's "Hey. Give yourself a break" We have some wine, and we feel fine There are many times when you've got to let that automobile go…and enjoy the ride U make me feel so at home		Gonna be what I wanna be Gonna see what I wanna see Gonna do what I wanna do I fight the plastical ways I like fantastical days Take reservations for two Revolution in me Revolution in me Revolution in me Send the Cops up Send the dogs 'round You'll never find me I'm rolling in your fat I'm hiding in your hat Then I'll be comin' for u

Home		The only thing permanent is Change
Hello u Here I am Nothing spoke is true In my land Hide me in dark corners 'Til the monster comes Fight me with the monster 'Til there's only one Show me all the way to my home Show me all the way to my home		If everything u heard was something familiar How long before the boredom killed ya How long before we go insane How long before we take the next train If everything u saw was something familiar How long before monotony kills ya Maybe it's time to step outside You see the only thing permanent is change If everything we are is something familiar U might as well have a typhoon kill ya Your hand in mine The good love shines U see the only thing permanent is change

Peace 21		Don't leave
I saw a little warrior in the street I saw a little warrior of peace He's living in the 21st Century He's trying to stay free Is there any idea how much information we have to deal with in this generation Is there any idea how hard it is to take when everybody tells u it's already broken, when I know that's not true Give it just a little love Permanently spaced, no race no colour I know we are cynical But let the World inside put peace in your mind We all cry for love in harmony		If everybody looks after themselves Don't need nobody else What are you gonna do when you're all alone If everybody needs nobody else Just looks after themselves What are u gonna do when you're all alone Don't leave your love behind Coz it won't catch you up It won't catch u up You'll be all alone
