Airbag
Paranoid android
Subterranean homesick alien
Exit music (for a film)
Let down
Karma police
Electioneering
Climbing up the walls
No surprises
Lucky
The tourist
The stars behind a song show my appreciation for that song
very weak song
average song
very good song
brilliant song
( no stars means i havn't decided yet)


Airbag top
in the next world war
in a jackknifed juggernaut
    i am born again
in the neon sign scrolling up and down
    i am born again

    in an intastella burst i am back to save the universe

in a deep deep sssleep of the inno$ent/completely terrified
            am born again
in a fast german CAR
 im amazed that i survived
            an airbag saved my life

Subterranean homesick alien top
            The breath of the morning i keep forgetting.  The smell of the warm summer air. I live
in a town where you can't smell a thing, you watch your feet for crakcs in the pavement.
                Up above aliens hover making home movies for the folks back home, of all these weird
creatures who lock up their spirits, drill holes in themselves and live for their secrets.
                They're all up-tight.
                I wish that they'd swoop down in a country lane, late at night when im driving. Take me
on board their beautiful ship, show me the world as id love to see it. I'd tell all my friends but
they never believe, they'd think that i'd finally lost it completly.I'd show them the stars and
the meaning of life. Theyd shut me away.
                But i'd be alright. i'm just up-tight.



EXIT MUSIC (FOR A FILM) top
wake, from your dreams,
the drying of your tears,
today we escape, we escape
pack, and get dressed,
before your father hears us,
before, all hell breaks loose.
breathe, keep breathing,
don't lose, your nerve,
breathe, keep breathing
i can't do this, alone
sing, us a song,
a song to keep us warm,
there's, such a chill,
such a chill
you can laugh
a spineless laugh
we hope your rules and wisdom choke you
now we're one in everlasting peace,
we hope that you choke, that you choke,
we hope that you choke, that you choke,
we hope that you choke, that you choke,


LET DOWN top
transport motorways and tramlines
starting and then stopping
taking off and landing
the emptiest of feelings
disappointed people clinging onto bottles
and when it comes its so so disappointing
let down and hanging around
crushed like a bug in the ground
let down and hanging around
shell smashed juices flowing
wings twitch legs are going
don't get sentimental
it always ends up drivel
one day
i'm going to grow wings
hysterical and useless
hysterical and
let down and hanging around
crushed like a bug in the ground
let down and hanging around
let down again
let down again
let down again
you know
you know where you are with
you know where you are with
floor collapses floating
bouncing back
and one day (you'll know where you are)
i am gonna grow wings
a chemical reaction
hysterical and useless
hysterical an
let down and hanging around
crushed like a bug in the ground
let down and hanging around


KARMA POLICE top
karma police arrest this man
he talks in maths
he buzzes like a fridge
he's like a detuned radio
karma police arrest this girl
her hitler hairdo is making me feel ill
and we have crashed her party
this is what you get
this is what you get
this is what you get when you mess with us
karma police i've given all i can
its not enough i've given all i can
but we're still on the payroll
this is what you get
this is what you get
this is what you get when you mess with us
phew, for a minute there i lost myself i lost myself


ELECTIONEERING top
I will stop,
I will stop at nothing.
Say the right things,
When electioneering.
I trust I can rely on your vote.
when i go forwards,
you go backwards,
somewhere we will meet.
riot your shields
voodoo economics....
it's just business
cattle prods and the IMF
i trust i can rely on your vote


CLIMBING UP THE WALLS top
I am the key to the lock in your house,
that keeps your toys in the basement,
and if you get too far,
you'll only see my reflection,
I am her face when she sleeps tonight
I am the pick in the ice,
do not cry or hit the alarm
we are friends till the day we die.
And either way you turn, I'll be there,
open up your sckull, I'll be there,
climbing up the walls.
it's always best when the light is off
it's always better on the outside
15 blows to the back of my head
15 blows to your mind
so lock the kids up safe tonight
shut the eyes in the cupboard
do not cry out of hit the alarm
you'll get the loneliest feeling
that either way you turn i'll be there
open up your skull i'll be there
climbing up the walls
climbing up the walls
climbing up the walls.


NO SURPRISES top
a heart that's full up like a landfill
a job that slowly kills you
bruises that won't heal.
you were so tired, happy,
bring down the government, they don't speak for us.
i'll take the quiet life, a handshake, some carbon monoxide.
no alarms and no surprises,
no alarms and no surprises,
no alarms and no surprises,
silent,
silent,
this is my final fit, my final bellyache with
no alarms and no surprises,
no alarms and no surprises,
no alarms and no surprises, please.
such a pretty house, such a pretty garden.
no alarms and no surprises,
no alarms and no surprises,
no alarms and no surprises, please.


LUCKY top
i'm on a roll
i'm on a roll this time
i feel my luck could change
kill me sarah
kill me again with love
it's gonna be a glorious day
pull me out of the aircrash
pull me out of the lake
cause i'm your superhero
we are standing on the edge
the head of state has called for me by name
but i don't have time for him
it's gonna be a glorious day
i feel my luck could change
pull me out of the aircrash
pull me out of the lake
cause i'm your superhero
we are standing on the edge.
we are standing on the edge


THE TOURIST top
it barks at no one else but me
like it's seen a ghost
i guess it seen the sparks a flowing
no one else would know
hey man slow down, slow down
idiot slow down, slow down
sometimes i get overcharged
that's when you see sparks
they ask me where the hell i'm going?
at thousand feet per second
hey man slow down, slow down
idiot slow down, slow down
hey man slow down, slow down
idiot slow down, slow down
