Don’t get any big ideas
they’re not gonna happen
You paint yourself white
and feel up with noise
but there’ll be something missing

Now that you’ve found it, it’s gone
Now that you feel it, you don’t
You’ve gone off the rails

So don’t get any big ideas
they’re not going to happen
You’ll go to hell for what your dirty mind is thinking

This is just a nightmare
But soon I’m going to wake up
Someone’s gonna bring me around

Hiding from the bombers
Wading through the fields
Running in the half light

Running to ????
Just like everybody
Could ????

Running through the underground
And this is your warning
4 minute warning

I don’t wanna hear it
I don’t wanna grow old
I just wanna run and hide

Now I’m in a nightmare
But soon I’m gonna wake up
Someone’s gonna bring me ’round

This is your warning
4 minute warning

Bit me, bit me, bit me, oh
I’ve got the poison, poison, poison now
I’m standing in the hall
kicking out the wall
It’s all been said to comfort you

bangers in the mash
people lose for cash
????

whatever turns you on
whatever gets you off
chief of police, the vice-chancellor
???
you’re dancing to my little red book

Bit me, bit me, bit me, oh
I’ve got the poison, poison
and I want more
get you an armoured car
they’re gonna throw a rock
stare into the light
the pyramid is power
if you are on the top
?????
if you stare into the dark,
the dark will stare back
back into your soul

I want to thank you, thank you, thank you all
I’m having such a good time, a good time, had enough?

I’m taking you down
I’m taking you down
I’m taking you down when I go down
I’m taking you down
I’m taking you down
I’m standing in the hall
kicking out the wall
Bit me, bit me, bit me, oh
Bit me, bit me, bit me, oh
I’ve got the poison

I’m stuck in the tardis
trapped in hyperspace
one minute snake charming
the next in another place

all the right moves and
earn the right percent
watch me dance like a puppet
you can almost see the strings

give me an answer
give me a sign
i’ve been climbing up this ladder
i’ve been wasting my time

so long, so long
so long, so long

up on the ladder
no time to escape
up on the ladder
away for fucking sake

up on the ladder
try to call out your name
up on the ladder
you’re all the fucking same

oh, you let the people down
you let the people down
you let the people down

Appliances have gone berserk
I can’t look you up
Treading on people’s toes
Snot-nosed little punks

And I can’t face the evening straight
And you can’t offer me escape
Houses live and houses speak
If you take me there you’ll get relief
Believe, believe, believe, believe…

And if I don’t know ??
I just wanna talk
Please don’t interrupt
Just sit back and listen

Cause I can’t face the evening straight
And you can’t offer me escape
Houses live and houses speak
If you take me there you’ll get relief
Believe, believe, believe, believe…

It’s too much
Too bright
Too powerful

Too much
Too bright
Too powerful

Too much
Too bright
Too powerful

Too much

Over here
Come slowly
Come slowly to me
I’ve been waiting
Patient
Patiently
I didn’t
But now I can see

That there’s a way out
That there’s a way out

That there’s a way out
That there’s a way out
That there’s a way out

Get yourself together
Let the light pour in
Pour yourself a hot bath, pour yourself a drink
Nothing’s gonna happen without a warning
Down is the new up
What is up, buttercup
Down is the new up, is the new up

Your services are not required
Your future’s bleak, you’re so last week

Ladies and gentlemen, without a safety net
I shall now perform a 180 flip-flop
I shall now amputate, I shall now contort
Because down is the new up
What if I just flip-flopped?
Down is the new up
Down is the new up
Down is the new up, is the new up

You’re on Candid Camera
The chink in your armor
Topsy turvy town, topsy turvy town
Shake your pockets out
Pass it on, pass it down
Topsy turvy town, topsy turvy town

When I’m at the pearly gates
This will be on my videotape, my videotape
Mephistopheles is just beneath
and he’s reaching up to grab me

This is one for the good days
and i have it all here
In red, blue, green
Red, blue, green

You are my center
When i spin away
Out of control on videotape
On videotape
On videotape
On videotape

This is my way of saying goodbye
Because I can’t do it face to face
I’m talking to you after it’s too late
From my videotape

No matter what happens now
You shouldn’t be afraid
Because I know today has been the most perfect day I’ve ever seen

Just as you take my hand
Just as you write my number down
Just as the drinks arrive
Just as they play your favourite song
As the magic disappears
No longer wound up like a spring
Before you’ve had too much
Come back and focus again

The walls abandon shape
You’ve got a cheshire cat grin
All blurring into one
This place is on a mission
Before the night owl
Before the animal noises
Closed circuit cameras
Before you’re comatose

Before you run away from me
Before you’re lost between the noise
The beat goes round and round
The beat goes round and round
I never really got there
I just pretended that I had
What’s the point of instruments
Words are a sawed off shotgun

Come on and let it out
Come on and let it out
Come on and let it out
Come on and let it out

Before you run away from me
Before you start unravelling
Before you take my mic
Just as you dance, dance, dance

Jigsaws falling into place
There is nothing to explain
Regard each other as you pass
She looks back, you look back
Not just once
Not just twice
Wish away the nightmare
Wish away the nightmare
You’ve got a light you can feel it on your back
You’ve got a light you can feel it on your back
Jigsaws falling into place

I don’t want to be your friend
I just want to be your lover
No matter how it ends
No matter how it starts

Forget about your house of cards
And I’ll do mine
Forget about your house of cards
And I’ll do mine

Fall off the table,
Get swept under
Denial, denial

The infrastructure will collapse
Voltage spikes
Throw your keys in the bowl
Kiss your husband goodnight

Forget about your house of cards
And I’ll do mine
Forget about your house of cards
And I’ll do mine

Fall off the table,
And get swept under

Denial, denial
Denial, denial
Your ears should be burning
Denial, denial
Your ears should be burning
Denial, denial
