the world will end with not a whimper, but a boom
a supersonic quantum vacuum red balloon
but I will live forever because I am so clever
I have been living my life inside a box
I never questioned any physics, orthodox
but I will suffer never, feel no pain whatsoever
but I cannot abide the secrets that you keep
the lack of empathy has never been so deep
but I keep coming back for more and you keep asking why
this is the last time
the H in LHC stands for harbinger
of revelations of a more modern nature
but I will live forever feel no shame whatsoever
I have been living my life inside a box
I never questioned any physics, orthodox
but I will suffer never, because I am so clever
but I cannot abide the secrets that you keep
the lack of empathy has never been so deep
but you keep coming back for more and i keep asking why
but I cannot abide the secrets that you keep (hey)
the lack of empathy has never been so deep
but I keep coming back for more and you keep asking why
this is the last time
this is the last time
and I cannot abide the secrets that you keep
the lack of empathy has never been so deep
but I keep coming back for more and you keep asking why
this is the last time
this is the last time
this is the last time
this is the last time

Horseback

whenever we look at old timers on horseback in love
i can't stop myself wanting to turn back the clock
whenever the power is cut at the station
i pray that it never will come back
where did we go wrong?
but we don't want to be smashing the machinery just yet
i want to live, don't want to die
more cash into the art of pretending that we can't stop death
i want to live, don't want to die
so nobody gets what I didn't when I was your age
i don't care to be young, I just don't want to die
but we don't want to be smashing the machinery just yet
i want to live, don't want to die
more cash into the art of pretending that we can't stop death
i want to live, don't want to die

Beheadin' Season

I've got an axe in my garage, you've got 'The Queen is Dead on vinyl'
and I know you're not the type to work alone
so how about we get together as we don't need no reason
cut through the red-shirted queen's guard
and keep an eye out for the damned double-O seven, he's sly,
shoot him on sight
the head, her head, restin' on a pillow
we don't need no reason to be the ones you charge with treason
we never tried to hide it from you
the royal hunt is on, beheadin' season
we will live our days out rotting in a dungeon, tied down with chains
and I know there will be a protest singer calling for our release
but he should know
we don't need no reason to be the ones you charge with treason
we never tried to hide it from you
the royal hunt is on, beheadin' season
we don't need no reason to be the ones you charge with treason
we never tried to hide it from you
the royal hunt is on, beheadin' season

A Small Part of My Life
02:58

I've got to work Saturdays again, there goes my weekend
I've got to work Saturdays again, my social life is sickening
it's just a small part of my life
it's just a small part of my life
I've got to work all day in the rain, I wonder how I manage to keep staying sane
working with all those stupid twats tying my knickers in a knot
it's just a small part of my life
and welcome to a small part of my life
it's just a small part of my life
welcome to a small part of my life
I don't know why I care at all
and I don't know how I'll carry on, how do I carry on?
'cause it's just a small part of my life
it's just a small part of my life
it's just a small part of my life
it's just a small part of my life

Dark Flow
03:47

get on the bus, we're moving into this empty space
fill up the tank and bust out, let's find another place
we can flee the wreckage of our past
ever the optimist I can see a better space
edge of the universe and old neighbours are replaced
there will be no questions, so don't ask
never mind what we're doing
everyone disappears, everyone flies from here
I'm flying, give in to the dark flow
nobody sits around, nobody hears a sound
I'm flying, give in to the dark flow
get on the bus, we're moving into this empty space
fill up the tank and bust out, let's find another place
we can flee the wreckage of our past
ever the optimist I can see a better space
edge of the universe and old neighbours are replaced
there will be no questions, so don't ask
never mind what we're doing
never mind what you hear, listen to someone near
I'm flying, give in to the dark flow
superstructures appear, dragging us over there
I'm dying, give in to the dark flow

Black Alert
03:30
|

|
hit black alert, it's an emergency
another level of disharmony
it's not a false alarm, reality
absurdity's the norm, don't tell anyone
we need to roll back to the day you died
this isn't rock and roll, it's genocide
division on the rise and now worldwide
absurdity's the norm, don't tell anyone
if we're all fucked, well then it's time to go
so punch it chewie, now let's hit the road
and we go with the flow or better, don't
just take me anywhere, i don't want to know
just take me anywhere, we just have to go away from here
just take me anywhere, i don't want to know
just take me anywhere, we just have to go away from here
go with the flow or better, don't
absurdity's the norm, don't tell anyone
and all we're asking for is five more years
a five-year mission on the holodeck
no more golden years, black star alert
just take me anywhere, i don't want to know
just take me anywhere, we just have to go away from here
just take me anywhere, i don't want to know
just take me anywhere, we just have to go away from here
don't blacken my heart, blacken my thumb
i don't want to know
don't blacken my heart, blacken my thumb
i don't want to know
don't blacken my heart, blacken my thumb
i don't want to know
don't blacken my heart, blacken my thumb
i don't want to know

Better Way
02:58

do it another way, I'm asking you
do it another way, now, there has to be
one more, a better way, I'm begging you
one more, a better way now, there's got to be a
better way forward, better way for us
a better way for us to be alive
so get out the car and push
cap off another year
invisible to the majority now, incredible
I'll have another go, repeatable in this company now I
there's got to be a
better way now, better way for us
a better way for us to be alive
so get out the car and push
do it another way, do it another way
do it another way, do it another way
I can't break
