Bunker Soldiers
Trained bodies in coordination Is that a better way for bunker soldiers But it's a nicer way to spend a war On lava beaches and sandy seaside The rusting bodies are surplus now then We never taught them how to fight like that The object's exercise is so compulsive It's not a better way but it still suits us I'd give up rice fields to fight like you [left] kbnurstrsoliedrnursieolikstnurestisolidkenurest [right] 214158952498921415895249589214158952495892141589 It's not a better way Though we are here to stay Well that might seem OK Waves of people In strange directions It's no use talking There's no decisions They gave up houses to be refugees the mud in ditches is over their knees The sand bagged trenches are over our heads This kind of warfare's become hide and seek Though khaki uniforms are universal Your propaganda is losing appeal I'd give up rice fields to fight like you I'd give up rice fields to fight like you [left] kbnurstrsoliedrnursieolikstnurestisolidkenurest [right] 214158952498921415895249589214158952495892141589 It's not a better way Though we are here to stay Well that might seem OK
Almost
I'd travel oh so far To be where you are I'd travel there by car To be where you are But if I get there I'd find That I'd change my mind It happens all the time To a friend of mine Always making statements And moving step by step Always acting theories I will regret My only consolation In the things that I've done Are the people who know me And the objects I own Happens all the time To a friend of mine Happens all the time To a friend of mine Happens all the time To a friend of mine Happens all the time To a friend of mine Happens all the time
Mystereality
Mystereality It's not the same game anymore A-nor the time or the places before You don't know, you don't know, you don't know If you see me you'll be asking It's always take take take take take take take take Oh reality don't fool me No mistakes this time Mystereality Well really it's all just promises You know how much I hate the unforeseen Oh don't you know A-never never a regard for the truth What's the meaning of that Mister R Oh reality don't fool me No mistakes this time My my reality So where did we go wrong Have you seen just a-recently The lengths to which we've been Now you could say that it's time Escapes they seldom work Oh reality don't fool me I count on you to know
Electricity
Our one source of energy The ultimate discovery Electric blue for me Never more to be free Electricity Nuclear and HEP Carbon fuels from the sea Wasted electricity Our one source of energy Electricity All we need to live today A gift for man to throw away The chance to change has nearly gone The alternative is only one The final source of energy Solar electricity Electricity Electricity Electricity Electricity Electricity E . . .
The Messerschmitt Twins
My mind is made up, I'm changing faster Your mind is made up, avoiding worries My old image is set to fade away Forget the talking Forget the actions And quiet voices and all that happened In just one of hour You could knock me down The twos are one now And ones are fuller No longer giving No longer taking These ways are tried They never seem to fail And when you're asking You sound like telling Despite the questions You're not receiving I can't explain Why you disappear Your mind is made up The time is taken You reach decisions We can't avoid them There's no success No matter what we do The twos are one now And ones are fuller No longer giving No longer taking These ways are tried They never seem to fail These ways are tried They never seem to fail These ways are tried They never seem to fail These ways are tried
Messages
It worries me this kind of thing How you hope to live alone And occupy your waking hours We're taking sides again I just wept I couldn't understand Why you started this again And every day you send me more It makes it worse is this a plan of yours To ensure I don't forget I'd write and tell you that I've burnt them all But you never send me your address And I've, I've kept them anyway So don't ask me if I think it's true That communication can bring hope to those Who have gone their separate ways It hardly touched me when it should have then But memories are uncertain friends When recalled by messages Coded messages Poison letters
Julia's Song
The means to an end The sinful distress Writing down meaningless words Vaguely off hand So the rest of the band Can learn from the bees and the birds Concentrate business man you, You haven't got long Planets are ruling your hearts Stilletos and thighs may be burning your eyes But it keeps you from falling apart Heavy but generalised Sordid and wet Someone advised me to die Blowing your mind 'Cause you know what you'll find When you're looking for things in the sky Under the influence Rotting our nerves Cutting us off at the mains Nearing the end with your grandmother's friend It's something to do when it rains It's something to do when it rains It's something to do when it rains

Red frame white light Telephone box Red on grey Six three two three double 'O' three Red frame white light You have a gray book On a metal shelf Red frame white light Numbered calls Selected places Red frame white light Telephone calls Black and white Red frame white light You have a yellow book With averts Red frame white light There is a black lead to a dial and phone Red frame white light Six three two three double 'O' three

Pretending To See The Future
Avoiding this is like avoiding a plague We can't understand the advances we made We've tried to resist but it's so hard to say no We're pretending to see what the future will hold We appear to be in control of our fate Just like soldiers believe they're in control of a war But its moving so fast we cannot see what we've done we're losing our eyes just to say that we've won My mind's made up, my heart is broke My fortune's is made me and I feel so choked I can't understand how we could ever believe The things we asked for but never received We never understood the times we asked The way we wasted all that passed This neglect is final it's a stage we must Endure to ever hope to see the first My mind's made up about the things we did We never saw we believed we couldn't say what we missed My mind's made up, my heart is broke My fortune's is made me and I feel so choked I can't understand how we could ever believe The things we asked for but never received By making noises which we cannot control The things we hoped that we'd never forgo We appear to be in control of our fate Just like soldiers believe they're in control of a war But it's moving so fast we cannot see what we've done We're losing our eyes just to say that we've won My mind's made up, my heart is broke My fortune's is made me and I feel so choked I can't understand how we could ever believe The things we asked for but never received
