Plastic, plastic, take the modern way
Simulation, for my instant day Why should I care, if you say that it's no good It's for me, can't you see? Convenience, everything is clean and easy I can't read, but then I watch T.V. Stimulation, they can do it for me How can you say, what is right and what is wrong It's for you, for me, too Convenience, everything is clean and easy Just believe me, it runs like a big machine It's just for me, can't you see? Convenience, everything is clean and easy |

Everyday they clock me, everyday is just the same
And the people I see, wear the same face as me As I turn the handle, time goes slowly by Is that all that there is until the day that I die? All through the night Through the night All through the night I can't believe I'm free till morning If I wipe the dirt and sweat, Then I find that more's still there If the summer don't get you, Then the winter always will Try not to think, it never gets nowhere But at least everyday ends, and the night's always there All through the night Through the night All through the night I can't believe I'm free till morning |

Who would believe me now that my hands are free,
that my hands are free I never thought it would ever come to me, ever come to me Now that my life's my own, I leave you behind, leaving you behind What ever made you think that I'd change my mind, that I'd change my mind It wasn't hard to run, break away from you, break away from you, After all you'd done, what was I to do, what was I to do Who's gonna take my place in the games you play, in the games you play Nobody's listening now to the things you say, all the things you say Now my hands are free from the ties, from the ties Now I look forward to the future, where it lies And with you, feeling low, looking black Here, now my head is clear, why should I look back When it was over did you have regrets, did you have regrets Or did you really think it was over yet, it was over yet Now that my life's my own I leave you behind, leaving you behind What ever made you think that I'd change my mind, change my mind Change my mind Change my mind |

All in all each man in all men
All men in each man. He can see she can't, she can see she can see whatever, whatever. You may know what I don't know, but not that I don't know it and I can't tell you so you will. To tell me all man in all men All men in each man. He can see she can't, she can see she can see whatever, whatever. You may know what I don't know, but not that I don't know it and I can't tell you so you will have to tell me all. It hurts him to think that she is hurting her by him being hurt to think that she thinks he is hurt by making her feel guilty at hurting him by her thinking she wants him to want her. Her wants her to want him to get him to want him to get him to want her she pretends. He tries to make her afraid by not being afraid. (permutations) You may know what I don't know, but not that I don't know it and I can't tell you so you will have to tell me all. I get what I deserve. I deserve what I get. I have it so I deserve it. I deserve it for I have it. I get what I deserve. What I deserve - what I deserve what I get. I have it so I deserve. He tries to make her afraid by not being afraid. Note: R.D. Laing, an eminent psychologist, has stimulated us by his intriguing, logical, poetic riddles into composing this latter-day madrigal - and something of a musical jigsaw. |

As I hold the key to the back door
of the world I feel my Hand touching bounds never had before. I can view the power of my position and my eyes can see more than anyone in any place, I'll play the game and never ever lose. I'm the king in fighting competition and the other pieces are there for my art and my tactics now. All my games are won before they're played for I have planned that no opposition can stage a fight I'll play the game and never ever lose. My thoughts never spoken only the visions inside my head the truth never broken within my silent words left unsaid. I will steer the helm of all the nation as the captain take my rewards for all the good I'm doing now, and no words that I'm the knave will alter my philosophy for if any are heard, the games started again I'll never ever lose. |

Now the wings fell to ground as the miles they were crossed
All the years seemed like days as the time it was lost For without his solutions and reasons for why He should come up for air to the town once his by So soon on his way Shadows from the pathways Memories of old days That the journey was long many thoughts filled his mind As he neared the stop always a dream he would find But the road that he knew could no longer be seen And the city lights flickered where lake waters gleamed With sadness today Hopes of joy yesterday Memories of old days Sky and the trees of his youthful time spent Only smoke, only paper. No colour or scent With sadness today Hopes of joy yesterday Memories of old days |

As I sit, as the world goes 'round,
In the room I've known before Is it me? Am I inside out? In a dream, as I watch the floor Everywhere, see, they are closing in, - Do I need lifting, do I need lifting But you say, no, there's nobody there, - Do I need lifting, do I need, do I need, do I, do I need? How the colors seemed so bright, Now it feels they've lost their glow And the dreams, only nightmares now, Images, from down below Everything is spinning 'round, 'Round and 'round I go - Do I need lifting, do I need lifting Where's the door, now I don't know - Do I need lifting, (do I need, do I need, do I?) x3 Do I need lifting, do I need lifting Do I need lifting, do I need? Funny how I lose control Funny how, I don't feel me But I do feel I'm inside out But I hear, I feel, I see Everything is getting dark No, please don't lock me in Do I need lifting, do I need lifting Am I here, the light is growing dim - Do I need lifting, (do I need, do I need, do I?) x3 - Do I need lifting, do I need lifting Inside out - Do I need lifting, do I need lifting Inside out - Do I need lifting, do I need lifting - Do I need lifting, do I need lifting |

Looked in the papers, looked in the magazines
Wanted to find out, to know Was there an answer, was there really something Hidden beneath them below Searched in the light and underneath the pictures Something was written there And through the smiles and under all the color A message on everything there But it's not imagination It's not imagination It's not imagination It's not me, look and see for yourself Didn't believe it, although I saw myself Wanted to look there again, But it was real and everybody saw it When it was shown, pointed out to them S.e.xisting, s.e.x.exciting Written where it doesn't show What do we see, the product or the message So hard to tell I don't know But it's not imagination It's not imagination It's not imagination It's not me, can't you see for yourself (Solo) But it's not imagination It's not imagination It's not imagination It's not me, can't you see for yourself That's... All... There... Is.... |

Wheels go 'round, from end to end,
A passage run, go down, descend And underground the air is stale With blurring light and endless rail On the wheels in motion, underground Silent noise, relentless sound Through shuttered aisle, the wheels go 'round The day is night, yet never still, From port to port, with miles to kill On wheels in motion, underground Just the locomotion, underground Windows dark, no view obscured With moving eyes, no sight assured Yet moving on, from place to place, Through corridors, without a face On the wheels in motion, underground Just the locomotion, underground |

Running away, I'll leave you my address,
don't want you to reply to anybody Forward my mail to the next place I'll be responsible for nobody Given my best to the people I knew I'll always maintain my situation And through it all, no one told me that I was doing it for nobody Tried to forget everything that we did And thinking we did it all together How it went wrong, can't remember It doesn't matter much for nobody Nobody tells, everyone understands It's anybody for nobody Anyone for everybody I'll be responsible for nobody Taking my leave leaving many regrets I'll go without meeting understanding Maybe one day realizing That everybody is for nobody |

There coming over Charaton Bridge
Look do you see the man who is poor but rich. What do you wish, and where do you go, Who are you, where are you from, Will you tell me your name? Rest awhile, call me your friend. Please stay with me I'd like to help. Then he said, How can I speak when I'm dry and my Throat is burning. So bring me aid And I'll answer your doubts. Friend in need I'd like your help Please take me home I'll stay with you. Then said he fair Pantagruel My name is Panurge and I have come from Hell. Look at my friend Look all around you Look at my friend Take all round you. Hey, Friend ? So brotherhood was made as their bond Carried him home and provide for his needs And his shelter, this day was done As no other the like. Faithfully their vow was made and from That day they were as one. |

You walk in here, and it seems you think
You own the place You ruin the sinks and you write on the wall After all the consideration given you, I thought you would be grateful, But no, you're not at all What can I do, what can I do, I've tried What can I say, do it my way Don't you forget, never forget, I'm Number One, yes, I'm Number One Number One, and you're still no one You say you're angry, It doesn't make much sense to me You're paying your rent, And at least you've got a job I've explained all the sacrifices offered you You take them without thanks, I forget that you're still slobs What can I do, what can I do, I've tried What can I say, do it my way Don't you forget, never forget, I'm Number One, yes, I'm Number One Number One, and you're still no one |
