Powerman 5000 - 《The Noble Rot》專輯歌詞與曲目

2 ContributorsPlay God or Play Dead LyricsYou can be replaced

With a prettier face

And somethings aren't allowed

Without the roar of the crowd

But what's the difference anyway

As we delay our own decay

Stay asleep or decide to wake

The only choice that you have to make is

 

Play god or play dead

 

Here today gone later today

Ready to take your place is an empty space

We're disposable the noble rot

Believing everything that we're taught

Don't be mistaken

If they come

And promise all but leave you crumbs to...

 

Play god or play dead

1 ContributorSpecial Effects LyricsI've got a camera

Let's make a movie

Let's pretend life is not like this but as it should be

You've got a story that could be true

And if we lie enough they'll all believe it's you

You look so life like

Up on the screen

Somehow that geriatric girl looks like a teen

Real life is boring because it's real

What has more value what you own or what you steal

Special effects

Special effects

 

In a delicate series of prototype sketches, just a few of many dozens

The final result is a three foot model which included shock absorbers for the legs

And compressed air jets hidden in the rocket nozzles

Notice the thick steel mounting tubes to the right of the picture

1 ContributorStrange People Doing Strange Things LyricsWe walk on wires

While breathing fire

Dig up holes

To bury the souls

We paint our faces

To find our places

In an atmosphere

That's made it clear

That we are-

 

Strange people

Doing strange things

Strange people doing strange things

Live like slaves but act like kings

Strange people doing strange things

 

Endless complications

Confused by new creations

How much lower can we go

Cripples and critics

Can crawl to the finish

And wait for a voice

But there's no choice

Cause we are

 

Strange people

Doing strange things

Strange people doing strange things

Live like slaves but act like kings

Strange people doing strange things

1 ContributorVHS LyricsLet's rewind like a VHS

Turn back the time

Feel the beat in our chest

Make sure that we never forget

Let's rewind like a VHS

 

VHS, VHS Let's rewind like a VHS

 

Let's concede

That we want to believe

That the past

Was only a dream

Just a place

That we never could leave

Follows us on the way to retrieve

 

VHS, VHS Let's rewind like a VHS
