Down, down, you can see them all
Rising gaily to the top Keep on rising babe, you know you got a long drop You better cling 'cause it's the done thing. Down, down, at the Policemans Ball They're all dancing in a line Keep on gruntin' boys, you know you're doin fine Come quickly I've been strangled. Down, down, at the Military They're all marching round and round Keep them boots shined and that still upper lip down Ablution Revolution. Down, down, at the launching pad Giant phallus stands erect Ten thousand tons of waste throb then eject Look out space, we're gonna change our place. Down, down, in old England Town There was air and now there's smoke Let's build more cars and drive away before we choke Suddenly it's always night-time. Down, down, at that nice Trade Fair All the money gone astray Let's inflate this price and float away Just you and me and everyone... |

She came up from the country with a smile for everyone
She left her blue horizon just to find another home A lonely girl who'd traveled many days A lonely heart that could not find the way And she said, "Momma, it's a hard life now you're gone" Momma, it's so hard to carry on And I feel I'm a fool who lost it all You used to make it all so very clear That life must go on though the end is near Momma, it's a sad and lonely life A misty morning rider, she came wanderin' through the hills A wanderin' soul appearin' over rainy window sills A loser in her heart but in her face A smile for everyone under God's grace And she said, "Momma, it's a hard life now you're gone" Momma, it's so hard to carry on And I feel I'm a fool who lost it all You used to make it all so very clear That life must go on though the end is near Momma, it's a sad and lonely life And she said, "Momma, it's a hard life now you're gone" Momma, it's so hard to carry on And I feel I'm a fool who lost it all You used to make it all so very clear Midnight maiden madness, what to search for in this place' Gateway to the city, night sky shadows on her face A lady lost in nowhere but her stare Leaves the world, her life to start somewhere And she said, "Momma, it's a hard life now you're gone" Momma, it's so hard to carry on And I feel I'm a fool who lost it all You used to make it all so very clear That life must go on though the end is near Momma, it's a hard life now you're gone Momma, it's so hard to carry on And I feel I'm a fool who lost it all You used to make it all so very clear That life must go on though the end is near |

Listen to me sister, I got news from the governor,
and he's heard people shouting from the towers in the city while their babies grow in test tubes over night Run and fetch the priest cos there's a light on in the building and there's sounds blowin out in the music of the night and we should try to get the people out alive Movin 'cross the ocean with the flag of death a'flyin the demon butcher pointin out the message on the tide and the demon light a'sailin at his side Stormin down the airwaves comes the protest and the prayin and the love that shone down from the sun to world no longer could support the life it gave |

My my Kuiama, she came in the morning
She smiled but the tears on her little face Showed the pain that had been in that far-off place So sad, treated so bad. My my Kuiama, don't break your heart tryin' To say how your ma and your pa passed away And they left you to wander the ruin and decay Real mean, that bullet machine. See here Kuiama, now ten thousand miles Is a long, long way and you're here today And you won't go back so you might say Hello, how do you do? Kuia, stop your cryin', there's no bombs a-fallin' No horsemen in the night a-ridin' through your dreams And tearing at your life Baby goodnight. No more silver rain will hit your ground And no more guns will sound And no more life be drowned No more trenches where the soldiers lie And no more people die Beneath that big black sky. Wake up Kuiama, I got somethin' to tell you It's just that I mean, well, that is to say, That I'm trying to explain but I'll start again, For you, I must be true. Kuia, in this country, they got rules with no reason They teach you to kill and they send you away With your gun in your hand, you pick up your pay So cool, that no mercy tool. Kuia, please believe me? I just couldn't help myself. I wanted to run but they gave me a gun And they told me the duty I owed to my Fatherland. I made my stand. Kuia, I just shot them, I just blew their heads open, And I heard them scream in their agony Kuiama, she waits there for me True blue, you saw it through. |
