I'm so happy with my feet on the ground
So happy, my head spins around
Quite content to sit on this fence
Quite content now a little bit older
The mirror people one day shall be free
The mirror people laugh at you and laugh at me
The mirror people, know not how to cry
So they scream, the mirror people scream inside
Because I could be nothing at all
Because I should be nothing at all
I wish I could be nothing at all
I wish I could be nothing at all
Time goes by so slow
When your stuck to me
Time goes by so slow
When your stuck to me
Yes it's true we're all in a gutter
And yes it's true please set me free
The christian says
I love love everybody
And you and you and you can be free
But I'm so happy with my feet on the ground
So happy my head spins around
Quite content to sit on this fence
Quite content
Now a little bit older
Because I could be nothing at all
Because I should be nothing at all
I wish I could be nothing at all
I wish I could be nothing at all
Time goes by so slow
When your stuck to me
Time goes by so slow
When your stuck to me

The Light
(HEAVEN)
(HEAVEN)
And do you remember
The blackest moment
Those blackest thoughts that rush
And do you remember
When too much time
When too much time was mine
OHH - these days
OHH - they're all mine
And do you recall
When you walk
Talk to yourself
In the street
In your autumn, In your winter
In your wintertime - TIME
And do you recall
When you fall
I can't help notice
No light in our eyes
In our eyes
I give you my armour
I give you my glory
I give what's truly mine
And if you want
"Give me" (oooh) heaven
Because heaven should be mine
(HEAVEN)
And do you remember
The blackest moment
Those blackest thoughts that rush
And do you remember
When too much time
When too much time was mine
OHH - these days
OHH - they're all mine
And do you recall
When you walk
Talk to yourself
In the street
In your autumn, In your winter
In your wintertime - TIME
And do you recall
When you fall
I can't help notice
No light in our eyes
In our eyes
I give you my armour
I give you my glory
I give what's truly mine
And if you want
"Give me" (oooh) heaven
Because heaven should be mine

Welcome Tomorrow
I am rich - he is on the T.V.
I am cool - he lives in every room
I'm a jerk - you can find him in the phone book
I am today - his name's on every tomb
I'm gone - welcome tomorrow
I'm not a book - glistening in splendour
I'm not a tree - a high rise deity
I'm sad - he saves you from the devil
And I am free - he's the son of liberty
I'm gone - welcome tomorrow
Hoo Hoo Hoo
Fall asleep - militia men will murmur
Feel close to me - his name before they die
In love - holy saints will call him
Don't feel so free - then kiss the world goodbye
I'm gone
Singing
Singing
Singing
Not necessarily sorted!
These thoughts
Pin me to the wall
I am cool - he lives in every room
I'm a jerk - you can find him in the phone book
I am today - his name's on every tomb
I'm gone - welcome tomorrow
I'm not a book - glistening in splendour
I'm not a tree - a high rise deity
I'm sad - he saves you from the devil
And I am free - he's the son of liberty
I'm gone - welcome tomorrow

No New Tale to Tell
You cannot go against nature
Because when you do
Go against nature
It's part of nature too
Our little lives get complicated
It's a simple thing
Simple as a flower
And that's a complicated thing
No new tale to tell
No new tale to tell
No new tale to tell
AHHHH
My world is your world
People like to hear their names
I'm no exception
Please call my name
Call my name
No new tale to tell
No new tale to tell
No new tale to tell
AHHHH
When you're down
It's a long way up
When you're up
It's a long way down
It's all the same thing
No new tale to tell
No new tale to tell
Because when you do
Go against nature
It's part of nature too
Our little lives get complicated
It's a simple thing
Simple as a flower
And that's a complicated thing
No new tale to tell
No new tale to tell
No new tale to tell
AHHHH
My world is your world
People like to hear their names
I'm no exception
Please call my name
Call my name
No new tale to tell
No new tale to tell
No new tale to tell
AHHHH
When you're down
It's a long way up
When you're up
It's a long way down
It's all the same thing
No new tale to tell
No new tale to tell

Here on Earth
All the little life forms
Upon this little earth
Multiplying dying and
Returning through rebirth
All the little children
Growing up in space
Adding their small stories
To the history of this race
Here on Earth, Here on Earth
Here on Earth, Here on Earth
Out-of-towners searching
For the way the world was made
Money spinners reaping
All the gifts from the arcade
All the winos drinking
To a methylated god
All the sleeping policemen
Who go by the book of plod
Here on Earth, Here on Earth
Here on Earth, Here on Earth
Here on Earth
Another mother's giving birth
To another mother
Who will then give birth
To a son of a gun
Who will cause the birth
Of another,
Of the family of Earth
All the searchers asking
Who on Earth is heaven bent
All the gurus telling
That to be is heaven sent
The men in see through mirrors
Who observe the masquerade
And we the masqueraders
Who believe we have it made
Who believe we have it made
Here on Earth, Here on Earth (x2)
Upon this little earth
Multiplying dying and
Returning through rebirth
All the little children
Growing up in space
Adding their small stories
To the history of this race

Lazy
Oh Oh Oh Lazy
you drive me crazy
love is hazy
so I will love
A kid like you
Had to send me away
Left me on my back
I had a heart attack
Oh Oh So lazy
You make me lazy
This love is hazy
So let me go
What do I do
When you turn blue
I didn't even know
You loved me so
Oh Oh Oh Lazy (lazy)
You drive me crazy
This love is crazy (crazy)
So let me go
you drive me crazy
love is hazy
so I will love
A kid like you
Had to send me away
Left me on my back
I had a heart attack
Oh Oh So lazy

Waiting for the Flood
Look at me, look at you
Searching for the purest blue
It's a thirst so hard to quench
And we're waiting
And we're waiting
And we're wating
Occasional showers never drench
We're waiting for the flood
Take a glimpse behind the veil
Set you sights upon the grail
Then have it taken from hands
And you're waiting
And you're waiting
And you're waiting
All your colours turn to pale
Seems all that we get here are showers
Take a look at all the flowers
Relying on the showers
For their life's blood
For their life's blood
For their life's blood
Bet that water sure tastes good
We're waiting for the flood
Searching for the purest blue
It's a thirst so hard to quench
And we're waiting
And we're waiting
And we're wating
Occasional showers never drench
We're waiting for the flood
Take a glimpse behind the veil
Set you sights upon the grail
Then have it taken from hands
And you're waiting
And you're waiting
And you're waiting
All your colours turn to pale
Seems all that we get here are showers
Take a look at all the flowers
Relying on the showers
For their life's blood
For their life's blood
For their life's blood
Bet that water sure tastes good
We're waiting for the flood

Rain Bird
Rain bird dives throught the hole
In a broken guitar
Rain bird sings a song so sad in blue
Like a stranded insect
Stuck in a bowl of glue
He tries to fly
But he will die
If he ever leaves the zoo
Rain Bird / Rain Bird
Rain bird swoops through the
Chimney pots and rain
Rain bird flies to the edge of a gilded cage
Hiding in the spotlights
Of a famous stage
He tries to become invisible
Whilst stealing the front page
Rain Bird / Rain Bird / Rain Bird / Rain Bird
When you were a boy
You used to wish for this
But like the cat who turns his nose
Up at the dish
Now that you have it
You want to give it away
When you had to work so hard
Slogging for a pittance
In a boot and shoe yard
That's when you wanted
What you now give away
Rain Bird
You're all the rage, bird
Rain Bird
You're all the rage, bird
In a broken guitar
Rain bird sings a song so sad in blue
Like a stranded insect
Stuck in a bowl of glue
He tries to fly
But he will die
If he ever leaves the zoo
Rain Bird / Rain Bird
Rain bird swoops through the

Rain bird flies to the edge of a gilded cage
Hiding in the spotlights

The Telephone is Empty
The telephone is empty
And now I realize the time
Good music, it's a pure form
A pure form of sympathy
And if you break my system
I'll burn you down
This music, it's a pure form
A pure form for sympathy
But I'm so scared of driving
Down same old lonely roads
Drinking to see for a moment
Drinking to forget things
Drinking to forget and remember nothing
Drinking and driving let's catch another
Plane
Flame
The telephone, it's empty
And now I realize the time
And now I realize the time
Good music, it's a pure form
A pure form of sympathy
And if you break my system
I'll burn you down
This music, it's a pure form
A pure form for sympathy
But I'm so scared of driving
Down same old lonely roads
Drinking to see for a moment
Drinking to forget things
Drinking to forget and remember nothing
Drinking and driving let's catch another
Plane

The telephone, it's empty
And now I realize the time

Everybody Wants to Go to Heaven

Everybody wants to go to heaven
Do you wonder if heaven is true?
Do you want to see an angel?
Do you want to see an angel?
Do you want to hear an angel?
Do you wonder if angels are true?
The picket and the policeman
The astronaut in space
The skinhead and the student
The one who wears your face
Do you want to see the kindom
Without a king?
Do you ever really wonder
If there is such a thing?
Everybody wants to go to heaven

Earth Sun Moon
I can be the sun
And I can be much fun
I could shine all over you
I'm crying to
We are the kings
Of nothing at all
We, the rich beggars
That's our role
But we can shine all over you
And we will shine
To get through to you
YOU
Earth, Sun, Moon
And I can be much fun
I could shine all over you
I'm crying to
We are the kings
Of nothing at all
We, the rich beggars
That's our role
But we can shine all over you
And we will shine
To get through to you
YOU

Youth
Youth, so self possessed
Then sometimes no self respect
Youth wants to give you all
Youth could be your downfall
Here comes another revelation
A revolution for us all
I never believed what you said
I only believe what we've done
"We are the Energy"
God bless, God bless, God bless us all
"We are the Energy"
God blessed, God blessed, God blessed
Our soul
Do do do do dooo
Do do do do dooo
Inhibitions - the exhibitions
Don't want to believe in this no more
"We are the Energy"
Don't want to believe in ghosts no more
"We are the Energy"
God bless, God bless, God bless us all
Then sometimes no self respect
Youth wants to give you all
Youth could be your downfall
Here comes another revelation
A revolution for us all
I never believed what you said
I only believe what we've done
"We are the Energy"
God bless, God bless, God bless us all
"We are the Energy"
God blessed, God blessed, God blessed

Do do do do dooo
Do do do do dooo

Mirror People (Slow Version)
I'm so happy with my feet on the ground
So happy, my head spins around
Quite content to sit on this fence
Quite content now a little bit older
The mirror people one day shall be free
The mirror people laugh at you and laugh at me
The mirror people, know not how to cry
So they scream, the mirror people scream inside
Because I could be nothing at all
Because I should be nothing at all
I wish I could be nothing at all
I wish I could be nothing at all
Time goes by so slow
When your stuck to me
Time goes by so slow
When your stuck to me
Yes it's true we're all in a gutter
And yes it's true please set me free
The christian says
I love love everybody
And you and you and you can be free
But I'm so happy with my feet on the ground
So happy my head spins around
Quite content to sit on this fence
Quite content
Now a little bit older
Because I could be nothing at all
Because I should be nothing at all
I wish I could be nothing at all
I wish I could be nothing at all
Time goes by so slow
When your stuck to me
Time goes by so slow
When your stuck to me
So happy, my head spins around
Quite content to sit on this fence
Quite content now a little bit older
The mirror people one day shall be free
The mirror people laugh at you and laugh at me
The mirror people, know not how to cry
So they scream, the mirror people scream inside
Because I could be nothing at all
Because I should be nothing at all
I wish I could be nothing at all
I wish I could be nothing at all
Time goes by so slow

Yes it's true we're all in a gutter
And yes it's true please set me free

But I'm so happy with my feet on the ground
So happy my head spins around
Quite content to sit on this fence
Quite content
Now a little bit older

I wish I could be nothing at all
