I'd call it a drastic measure but I'll open up one eye
I'm all evolved and fully grown, with three dimensions of my own
But hey Mr. Dog - Well I'm just an animal just like you
In a laser beam and a human being
With more fire than the belly of the sun


And inside this business of the gun, well I heard the aero-engines whine
Of a lucky soul and an afterlife and another chance for a darker life
And I pray, cause it don't take god long
to bless those feet that you're standing on
on a one way ride, a heaven vibe, upon wishes or demands
It's time to fly


And I'm suffering the absolute of black-handed days
Been serving with the boys and girls, all the secret rulers of the world
And dark day alive, well once again evil on the throne
Much blacker than the setting sun
I'm hung upon dark feathers
It's time to fly
But I'm hanging in there with intentions so high
That they're purer than air and what I've got on my mind
Is to be cruising on you -
to be full-on on you
to be swooping on you
to be airborne on you
To be carried along
On a current so strong
I'd be glowing from you


So go on and prove me wrong

slip coma deep inside an industrialists mind
pour yourself into the creased appeal of a financeman's suit
you keep on exchanging handshakes and smiles
with chatshow hosts like butterflies
fly down and hide in the zeros and the ones
and let's all sing:
Hallelujiah! Hallelujiah!
the missile can fly -
decode the cypher
the cryptic message within a government health warning
and it's the same song everytime
oh no! -
your big mushroom cloud
it's gone and it's fucked up my view
well we could gleem a world of jackpots
and corportate value
learn to leave our uglyselves behind
you've got to feel the power as it flows
from businessmen and motherloads
become a soul of pure caffeine
live life like a coke machine
Hallelujiah! Hallelujiah!
praise god for hollywood teeth
crash your karma into little bits of happiness
it's okay - i know a quick and easy way
we ain't devine we've all got our faults
seismic minds
think seismic sized thoughts

don't matter which way we're facing
so long as we're rolling forwards
you'd better look out below
relentlessly and without tiring
we're gonna keep rolling forwards
here we go

mister executive man
pick your way through the debris
lubricate your gun
between the devil and the sea
sleeping solvent and sound
and ethically free
right upon my back
a panzer running over me
when i had my hands in the air
invoice me
and then your mother

My spider sense is tingling
From the boys and the girls and the vortex singing
Just a second to hang upon my ears
Just a second to taste the salty tears
Judge not
Least you may be judged by me
Judge not
Least you may be destroyed by me

Trouble come down on shoulders quick
And put a hymn of neon upon my lips
Now that I'm spiralling into the void
My atoms split as loves reward
For the ten percent I can't afford
Well maybe I'd fly free as a bird

And without sleep
Without remorse
We're stuck on head-on collision course
But my plate's already full
Of selfish people with selfish desires
And don't climb so high
That you can't come down
To tumble now
Is to surely die

Drained again by you and the summer
I'm shadows of monsters
I'm showrooms of glistening glass
With amphetamine comedowns
I'm spinning and turning
Alone on saint valentines
But i think that i hear celestial angels
They riccochet
Sounds of moments of glory that passed
Now my pipe dreams are calling
They sing to me sweetly of soul and sincerity
Let's reset our instrument dials
Somewhere the moment will come
When we crash through the heart of the sun
- we are unstoppable now -
Somewhere the night will explode
On the back of this wave that we rode
- we are unbreakable now -
Just how well do you know me?
I'm countless calamities
A maleable creature who speaks with a laudanum toungue
And i promise you deeply
The righteous will triumph over all adversity
Because sometimes the melodies come
Leaving trails like stars as they fall
And sometimes i have to hold on
Or be overwhelmed by this all
So reset your instrument dials
Because somewhere our spirits will soar
As the audience started to roar
- we are unswayable now -
Can you feel the air under your wings
As a thousand throats started to sing
- we are unbeatable now -
Well my head is a box whose secrets are open
We're candyfloss children who live in a city of clouds
With the ghosts of dead robots
Where fiction and fantasy roll like a cannonball
On moments when planets collide
Emerald city doors swing open wide
Hold your breath and the music will play
And we'll puff and just blow em away
Somewhere the moment will finally land
As i pick the crowd up in my hand
To hear their roar echo away
