The Reichenbach Falls Wilkommen, Bienvenue Watch the picture comin through Share your breakfast with the world as we call at the Reichenbach falls Download your destiny plugged into the machine that lies between us all as you call at the Reichenbach falls crazy cyber-terrorist come face your nemises in the online mind entwined, the Napoleon of crime Transmit through the ether, broadcast to the edge of the stars take me to your leader - the mastermind behind it all They let you think that you're a god while their bots consume your thought to sell you your own soul as we fall at the Reichenbach falls crazy cyber-terrorist come face your nemises The destroyer of time, the Napoleon of crime Transmit through the ether, broadcast to the edge of the stars take me to your leader - the mastermind behind it all They gave you a calculator - now you cant add up Step into the simulator - now you can't stand up Welcome the machine - the thinking machine They gave you machine. Become the machine

Viva Revolution 04:07
lyrics

watch the sun in the sky, watch the man in the moon feel the autumn in your mind - this moment passing through the hour is drawing near - listen, you can hear the revolution calling you Oh it will creep like a flood in the night rise through the tears and the hurt and the lies then up through your heart Viva revolution, Viva revolution, Viva revolution watch the moonlight on the coast, watch the sunlight on the trees feel the wild October ghost in his hallowed mystery The time approaches fast - sown in the past the revolution calls to thee Oh it will grow like the moss on a stone Rise in the swell of the ocean's foam and up through your heart Viva revolution, Viva revolution, Viva revolution Spreads like a light that illuminates the hall Cuts like a vine that slips in through the wall Flows like the ice that crumbles mountains tall then up through your heart Viva revolution

This Is Not Utopia 03:32
lyrics

This is not Utopia Take a tube train, strike yourself dumb wandering on the plain on the blazing sun cry the lizards tears lying on the sand, feel the breeze from Algiers Sing to the sea, from you balcony the souls down on the street crawl on their knees hear the lizard speak Don't let the writing on the roof spoil your view tell yourself each day - nothing can be changed and nothing can be changed or undone hard wired to fear destitution near this is not Utopia - move on! The goats milk sours in the hot sunshine we ponder hear, for hours, the illusion of time Poor man living in a rich man's home the same rich man - renting out a house he doesn't own it's dog eat dog - it's gonna eat itself for sure at such a cost in this cathedral of the poor and they say that it's supposed to trickle down trickle down down, down, down Tell yourself each day - nothing can be changed just so nothing can be changed or undone no-one to steer a free-marketeer this is not Utopia - move on! An invisible hand makes it all for good it isn't true, but it will do to delude us fools and we gladly play our part but in Guel I stopped to dwell on the lie of fine art

Productivity 03:16
lyrics

...and now you have come of age it's time for you to pay your way Welcome to the world of working, welcome to lackyism welcome to global warfare, all out pointless competition Thinking outside the box, now we can't get back in all these shifting paradigms are clouding our blue skies we are restructuring - you must be flexible we'd like to take all the good things away from your post we must please our shareholders -they're hungry for some growth they'll gorge their lazy, bloated, greedy, coke-encrusted faces Productivity we'll introduce a framework - a pro-active action plan a corporate, strategic window of opportunity and then we'll all jump through it -down to our certain death cos nobody knows what this company actually does Productivity we're growing ever forward - reducing our cost base drill down, drill down we need to lose ten people -obviously we can't lose me My hundred K's needed to stand right here and point the way you're looking tired and stressed - you'll let the whole team down you should embrace the change - EMBRACE THE CHANGE!!! You could be TUPE'd out - we'll cut your T's and C's We need our friends in government to help make you redundant! Productivity

Do You know What You Want? 03:46
lyrics

Do you know what you want? Everything is connected so they say they might be right, they might be wrong it's a done deal anyway Everything is infected with a doubt the certainties that once we knew are beyond our view for now don't know where we're going can't see 'round the bend but then the journey is the end and how we've come so far but do you know what you want? you only know what you don't do we know where we go from here? we can't agree on this at all and when Jerico comes tumbling down do you know even who you are? and what will you do when you hold the crown? Everyone is dejected with the lies the sweetest dreams that turned so sour that we'd long believed were ours Think you know what the score is following the trend but then the journey is the end and how we come so far but do you know what you want? you only know what you don't do we know where we go from here? we can't agree on this at all When the crowd has brought the statue down do they know even who they are and what will they do when they take the town? Blow the trumpet - crash the moon into the the sun Smash the tyrant, now the spell has been undone watch the power flow across the land Push the button, push right through the storm Pull the trigger, you're just getting warm feel the power flow into your hands When the last man falls and the flag's torn down do you know even who you are and what will you do when you hold the crown? but do you know what you want? you only know what you don't do we know where we go from here? we can't agree on this at all and when Jerico comes tumbling down do we know even who we are and what will we do when we hold the crown? Everything is connected so they say they might be right, they might be wrong it's a done deal anyway

They Can Get You In Your Dreams 04:29
lyrics
buy track
It's a crazy sort of world we've got oh so much to say Open your mouth - someone else's words are coming through Watch the sunrise, but you are not awake Reading your mind in a newspaper each day You cannot decide - you are deceived You cannot rely on all you believe 'cos you're not free They can get you in your dreams They can move you like the waves upon the sea Though you don't understand the flow They know all they need to know - make you think your life's your own And you thought you could debate But they taught you who to hate - the unemployed, unions and the state Just to defend the precious way of life they hold so dear Just when you thought you were safe there in your bed A gargantuan gun is pointing at your head You cannot deny this reality You have to comply - you cannot leave 'cos you're not free They can get you in your dreams They can bounce you like a child upon the knee Though they don't live down here with you - they make their crust from all you do Make you think their lies are true Didn't you watch it on the news - we'd kill each other just to buy a pair of shoes The human race is falling down So easily manipulated we can be and don't think they don't know how You cannot hid - you are the Hare Trapped inside - you are ensnared by some idiot Billionaire They can get you in your dreams They can turn you like a cog in a machine though you don't think they'll touch your soul - they have given you your goals Make you think you're in control They can get you in your dreams They can stir you like the sugar in your tea and though you know you are aware - they made you think that you don't care They can get you in your dreams they can move you like the waves upon the sea Fade

Don't Be Sad 04:43
lyrics

Dont be sad feel the love within you Emerge from the dark let the sunshine on your heart You're not lost - you are here right now you'll get through somehow and make a new start Don't be sad be happy Don't feel blue find the strength to carry on when you're down - fly above the clouds for you must allow the show to go on Don't feel cold feel empathy Don't be tired Be energy you never know - you might make it right at least you must try to live for the day Don't cry tears cry out for joy don't be cruel be love's envoy don't get depressed - it's just a state of mind you can decide to feel what you want Don't be sad You are wonderful I am wonderful we are wonderful

Test Card F 05:30
lyrics
buy track
Test Card F A magical time, the dawn of the age, the awakening of minds You - you were the face that swept away grey, brought colour to life Around the world, the mystery girl spellbound us all with that neverending tic tac toe From an amazing year when a simple idea became something of it's own In every home, in every school and tv shop window you could not escape the smile on your face, waiting for the show and who could frown at Bubbles the clown even although he was actually quite strange just like the potentates who would commentate on the strangeness of the change and oh - what's the meaning of it all? is it Autumn, is it fall? Or a cypher in the soul To the past we belong, that lost which we have carried down through our songs They melodies sway, the words fade away, yet the meaning rolls on Napoleon, in Portmerion, pondered upon the grandest of dreams within a dream but his cross came to naught on a lighthouse caught on a penny for your thoughts So hard to define the stars in our minds Dissolution begun A dawn or a cusp - the age of Aquarius has come When the programme comes undone and oh - what's the meaning of it all? is it Autumn, is it fall? is it autumn is it fall autumn is it fall autumnisitfall
