Track Lyrics

Blogging Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Three king researchers, use Google star maps
Bethlehem manger, a high-rated app
Book rooms at the inn, flags first born male traps
Amazon wish-list, delivery elapse
[Chorus]
Blogging like Jesus, tweet like a Pope
Site traffic heavy, I'm YouTubing hope
[Verse 2]
Shepherds are wanted, to mesmerise sheep
Taste-makers prosper, profits are reaped
Market moves fast in, a blink of an eye
The needle is broken, the camel has died
[Chorus]
[Instrumental]
[Bridge]
Voting by proxy, buying online
Selling on eBay, all that is mine
BlackBerry hedge fund, new Apple's divine
Dream time destruction, outback becomes mine
[Chorus] x2
[Outro]
Hope!
Hope!
Hope!
I'm YouTubing hope

In Manchester Lyrics

[Verse 1]
One of the men that spawned fibre optic prawns
Barely concealed a grand canyonic yawn
Passed a Nationalist getting buried in Manchester
In Manchester
[Verse 2]
Tricolour flying, the sun shining, large crowd around
A freshly dug grave, priest arm blesses, the flag is waving
Stern Indian serves original flavourings, in Manchester
In Manchester
In Manchester
Ah huh
[Instrumental]
[Bridge]
I don't yet know how my story will end
Dead or in prison or completely around the bend
A strong punch was essential, dust heads exploded
[Outro]
In Manchester
In Manchester
In Manchester
In Manchester
Ah huh
[Outro] x2

Sleep-Walking Lyrics

[Verse 1]
We're at a tipping point
The arguments may lead
To less cohesion
A mere collection of parts
[Verse 2]
Sleepwalking to separation
Who'd give the perpetrators
A second chance
If reason could prevail
[Chorus]
The narrowest vision
Often has the widest appeal
A lack of decision
Leaves us open for a steal
Left out, abandoned
We're less than ideal
[Instrumental]
[Chorus]
[Verse 3]
Whose rights to shout the loudest?
Should bully tactics triumph
When no one cares
And all stand idly by
[Chorus] x2
[Instrumental]

Swallow Lyrics

[Verse1]
The windy city swallows corn
Volcanic princess brings a storm
Count me out, I love the spring
Curdled creams another thing
Heaven's open, there's no space
For a future Afghan ace
Testosterone plus, and gym built strong
The meat is off, gravity blonde
[Instrumental]
[Verse 2]
A heavy elder mans the door
Working girls, man, man the floor
They scope the room, enhance the groove
Teaching aliens shamanic moves
It's in your face that dumb arse smile
Not worth a piss, ain't got no style
The white kids are a crying shame
They've got it all but parked their brains
[Instrumental]

Octopus Lyrics

[Verse 1]
She opens her mouth and seems to swallow us all
She shakes off taboos and unwanted organisms
There's a man outside who says he's come to read, the ether
Picking up bonus points when it's time for dinner
[Chorus]
There's always someone who thinks they've got a plan
Someone with a whip in hand, who thinks they are a man
A rescue package that will barely save the day
Even when implemented with no further delay
Delay
[Verse 2]
Predictive octopods, enchanting and seductive
Even the most mundane thoughts seem quite sensuous
This installation seem to bathe us all in sound
Picking up clues from penitential saviours
[Chorus]
[Instrumental]
[Chorus]

Harpooned Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Day delayed messages, arrive and repeat, ah, ah
Ernest T. died, so we'll now never meet
I set fire to the kitchen, the damage was bad, ah, sad
I sat down by the fountain, went quietly mad
[Chorus]
I'm worried, I'm worried, there's cause for concern
I lit the touch paper and it started to burn
I'm worried, I'm worried there's cause for concern
Ignited and cornered, there's nowhere to turn
[Verse 2]
Better 'fess up, you're right off the scale, ah, but
Lately the second, swallowed a whale
Reality bends, and the hospital curves, ah, ah
Was it the weather, which got into your nerves?
[Chorus]
I'm worried, I'm worried, I'm frightened as hell
I heard voices echo way down in my shell
I'm worried, I'm worried, I'm frightened as hell
Walls closing in, I'm feeling unwell
[Instrumental]
[Bridge]
Oh, was it the weather, which got into your nerves?
Oh, was it the weather, that got into your nerves?
Oh, was it the weather, that got into your nerves?
Oh, was it the weather, that got into your nerves?
[Instrumental]
