From the cradle to the grave
You’re taking the piss mate
It’s generational poverty
Regulating liberty
Closed doors class wars
Trade whores biased laws
Closed doors class wars
Trade whores biased laws
Light up the battleground
I don’t want to win
Just to survive
Light up the battleground
I don’t want to win
Just to survive
Why social climb
Wade through all their slime
We’ll hunker down in here
With no death box fear
Closed doors class wars
Trade whores biased laws
Closed doors class wars
Trade whores biased laws
Light up the battleground
I don’t want to win
Just to survive
Light up the battleground
I don’t want to win
Just to survive
Even though my heart breaks
Seeing what you’re going through
We’ve something to tell them
Oui c’est sauvage
There are only 2 classes
10% own everything
They take without giving
And rigged the economy
It’s only the mega rich
By stolen wealth
That's made the rest of us
A nation of losers
The 90% of us
None should ever go hungry
We should fight this injustice
Let the battle begin
Light up the battleground
I don’t want to win just to survive
Light up the battleground
I don’t want to win just to survive

Mind Control

Dancing to the back beat
In a down beat bar
The world goes in to freefall
As its pushed too hard
Men in suits do cocaine in a city bar
Housewives on the tv filmed
In luxury spas
Their boot on your neck
And your face in the dirt
We don’t fight back
Though its starting to hurt
Money needs money
Just like power needs power
Wage slaves keep going
For their ten quid an hour
In my head in my head
The treadmill of life
Day after day turns to
Week after week
The treadmill keeps turning
And making us weak
Month after month
Becomes year after year
But me and you,
We're all going no where
Even more of this is coming our way
Stuck on this treadmill Aand making us stay
Don’t patronise us with your charity
Stick your carte blanch authority
In my head in my head
The treadmill of life
In my head in my head
The treadmill of life
All day and all night
It don't ring true
They ain't me or you
The party seeks power
Entirely for its own sake
They are not interested
In the good of others
They are interested
Solely in power, pure power
Mind control by the daily news
Mind control by watching tv
Mind control in education
Mind control by the government
Mind control by social media
Mind control by propaganda
Mind control in a brave new world
Mind control we will all be damned
Mind control switch off your tv
Mind control switch off your tv
Mind control in society
Mind control catastrophe

Negative Politics
03:23

How was it decided
When you cut up and divided
It’s hard to see any truth
When looking in your eyes
Vote for the red, blue,
Yellow or green
Fascists or commies
You can pick your own team
Infiltrating truth to
Spread lies out there
Disaffect the youth
So they no longer care
Esprit de corps it is done for here
Just out for themselves
And they reek of fear
Negative politics negative politics
Negative politics load of bollotics
They're all the fucking same
In their designer suits
Rolled off the production line
In schools for little snoots
Tv smiles and editing
But whos the puppet master
Hedge funds for financiers
Nowt left for disasters
Distort the truth
To spread fear out there
Disaffected youth
That no longer care
Solidarity it’s no longer here
Just live for themselves
It’s become so clear
Negative politics negative politics
Negative politics load of bollotics
Negative politics negative politics
Negative politics load of bollotics
Esprit de corps it’s done for here
Solidarity there’s no more here
Esprit de corps it’s done for here
Solidarity there’s no more here
Esprit de corps it’s done for here
Solidarity there’s no more here
Esprit de corps it’s done for here
Solidarity there’s no more here
15 minute city - I don't fuckin think so
Negative politics negative politics
Negative politics load of bollotics
Negative politics negative politics
Negative politics load of bollotics
Negative politics its all bollotics
Negative politics making us sick
Negative politics Two faced hypocrites
Negative politics load of bollotics

Dusseldorf Hamburg
Berlin babies
Became democrats
The zhengden zone
The tourist trail
The migrant worker is
Changing all that
Ich kann nicht schlafen
Die appétit verloren
Ich kann nicht schlafen
Real eyes shall see
Ich kann nicht schlafen
Die appétit verloren
Realise and see
History has ended
Before it began
Stay in your own borders
Said the american man
I'll buy up all your cities
My european pretties
Keep you safe from harm
No need for alarm
Ich kann nicht schlafen
Die appétit verloren
Ich kann nicht schlafen
Real eyes shall see
Ich kann nicht schlafen
Die appétit verloren
Realise and see
I am the traveller
Of thoughts and minds
An invisible woman
Crossing borders and time
I sit unnoticed in a street café
But I fear the rise of
Pro right wing vibes
Ich kann nicht schlafen
Die appétit verloren
Ich kann nicht schlafen
Real eyes shall see
Ich kann nicht schlafen
Die appétit verloren
Realise and see

Lying Dormant
03:49

You have awakened my immortal spark
We shall control the never ending dark
But with me, it’s far better not to live
My heart yearns to see you softly bleed
In the day I sleep with open eyes
And In the night I’m the devil in disguise
Lying dormant ready for the kill
Lying dormant ready for the kill
Lying dormant ready for the kill
Lying dormant ready for the kill
We will roam throughout the centuries
Making love in the darkened cemeteries
With us as one we shall eagerly partake
Only be watchful for the man with the stake
In the day I sleep with open eyes
And In the night I’m the devil in disguise
Lying dormant ready for the kill
Lying dormant ready for the kill
Lying dormant ready for the kill
Lying dormant ready for the kill
Mankind shivers when my presence is near
When they see me its more than they can bear
Our time together shall be for eternity
My trap is waiting I’m keeping very still
In the day I sleep with open eyes
And In the night I’m the devil in disguise
Lying dormant ready for the kill
Lying dormant ready for the kill
Lying dormant ready for the kill
Lying dormant ready for the kill
In the day I sleep with open eyes
And In the night I’m the devil in disguise
In the day I sleep with open eyes
And In the night I’m the devil in disguise
At night I lurk with lust for blood
I’ll bleed you dry utopia
The dark is mine your blood dIvine
The afterlife for kingdom come
The way you linger
The way you seem to stare
The more you struggle
The more I’ll get my thrill
The way you linger
The way you seem to stare
The more you struggle
The more I’ll get my thrill
In the day I sleep with open eyes
In the night I’m a devil in disguise
In the day I sleep with open eyes
In the night I am kill kill kill kill kill

If I was Delilah
02:52

Turn off your mind medusa’s child
Painting of the scream
Through nightmare dreams
The room with no windows
Eyes watch from the walls
Voices shouting in my head
From the chains of the night
Mirror on the wall
It’s time for me to go
Fuck this for apathy
Tough luck if you didn’t see
Half of me trapped in a box
Half of me can pick the locks
I am the artful dodger
I won’t be your slave
Glazed eyes don’t reflect
The bitterness in your soul
I couldn’t breathe I need to breathe
I couldn’t breathe I need to breathe
I couldn’t breathe I need to breathe
I couldn’t breathe I need to breathe
No
Fuck you your staring eyes
Fuck you and your crusade
If I was Delilah
I'd cut off all of your heads
Mirror image is a tv screen
The open portal of what has been
Slept through it in a sweat
The robot ghost of the internet
Like a voodoo doll
She had kept me under a spell
She knows my name
But she’ll never know me
Fuck you your staring eyes
Fuck you your evil lies
If I was Delilah
I'd cut off all of your heads
Fuck you your burning eyes
Fuck you and your smear campaign
If I was Delilah
You’d never get to look in my eyes never ever never ever again

Zero One Two Honey
04:55
|

|
There's a voice in my head
Nagging me what to do
Is it an illness or a super
Power breaking through?
Even in the darkness
It comes with scars
Haunting flash backs
From that net of tiny stars
Puncture the darkness
Like a sigh of relief
Take it in because of that air
As it brings belief
I feel the axis shift
And the drift of sleep
It makes me unsteady
Up on my tired feet
Zero one two honey
Zero one two honey
Zero one two honey
Zero one two honey
This nation is ill
With that virus hate
So called friends poking friends
Hook them up like bait
Egos out of control
Fills a universe
Spinning yarns weaving
Blankets so subverse
So here we go
So here we go
So here we go
Zero one two honey
Zero one two honey
Zero one two honey
Zero one two honey
Zero one two honey
Zero one two honey
Zero one two honey
Zero one two honey
I take refuge in the dark
It's loneliness a sigh of relief
It makes me feel safe
From a world that’s falling apart
Take refuge in not knowing
What to say or do
Hear the story in your mind
Where there is only you
Find a new place in your mind
In a house with old pictures
Of your family that is gone
You’ll find refuge in the dark

Exorcism
03:09

Work is a grind
I'm losing my mind
Chains clamp around
They're pulling me way down
Answer the phone
Set the colours and tone
I wanna keep the control
I won't sacrifice my soul
Life gets so demanding
The gremlins ever expanding
The chains are getting tighter
Pulling me way way down
Gotta switch off that damn phone
Change the colours and the tone
Gotta take a better control
To rescue my ailing soul
More demands
Just tear up the plans
And you can tell me what you want
Or tell me what you don't want
No?
I'm gonna stop
Gonna dance away the week
Stomp it under my feet
My final decision
There's gotta be an exorcism
Gonna dance away the week
Stomp it under my feet
My final decision
There's gotta be an exorcism
Gonna dance away the week
Stomp it under my feet
My final decision
There's gotta be an exorcism
Gotta be an exorcism
Gotta be an exorcism
Gotta be an exorcism
Gotta be an exorcism
Gotta be an exorcism
Gotta be an exorcism
Gotta be an exorcism
Gotta be an exorcism

Number 10
02:31

You ain’t fit to govern
You’re a bunch of prats
Go back to your lodges
And your swanky flats
Sign the fracking license
When we look the other way
Every day inflation
Still outstrips our pay
When peaceful revolution is impossible
It makes violent revolution inevitable
When peaceful revolution is impossible
It makes violent revolution inevitable
The prats at number 10
Have gone and done it again
And the press are just
Rattling our cages
To sell poverty voyeurism to us now
Put the thickest bimbos
On our tv screens
Demonise people
Forced to live beyond their means
When peaceful revolution is impossible
It makes violent revolution inevitable
When peaceful revolution is impossible
It makes violent revolution inevitable
Our reach is still far
Further than our grasp
This is something that you need to know
In your world you think you’re worth 10 k a day
Not to us mate… no way…. You’re nothing
The prats at number 10
Have gone and done it again
The prats at number 10
Have gone and done it again
Opened up the coal mines so nobody goes cold
But it’s all being exported so the country doesn’t fold
Investing our taxes in nuclear energy
For nuclear warheads
To scare the yank’s enemy
When peaceful revolution is impossible
It makes violent revolution inevitable
When peaceful revolution is impossible
It makes violent revolution inevitable
When peaceful revolution is impossible
It makes violent revolution inevitable
When peaceful revolution is impossible
It makes violent revolution inevitable
The prats at number 10
Have gone and done it again
All of them the prats at number 10
Have gone and done it again

Water Dance

I hear your heart beat
Next to the river
Caught in a trance
Caught in a dance
Steal your breath
You can’t control
All life must bow
To the rise and fall
I’ve been dreaming
I could become
The western grebe
To rise and run
The sultry slither
Of the river
Streaks the land
With ebb and flow
Show show me how to dance
The water dance the water dance
Show show me how to dance
The water dance the water dance
Bolingo
Sala makasi
In the ripple of the water
The rattle call for synchrony
Shake their heads from side to side
While they display their love parade
On the river they shall surrender
Walk on water two by two
The gentle sway of the waves
In a trance they are entranced
Show show me how to dance
The water dance the water dance
Show show me how to dance
The water dance the water dance
Show show me how to dance
The water dance the water dance
Show show me how to dance
