1. _ Lucky
I'm on a roll,
I'm on a roll this time
I feel my luck could change.
Kill me sarah,
Kill me again with love,
It's gonna be a glorious day.
Pull me out of the aircrash,
Pull me out of the lake,
I'm your superhero,
We are standing on the edge.
The head of state has called for me by name
But i don't have time for him.
It's gonna be a glorious day!
I feel my luck could change.
Pull me out of the aircrash,
Pull me out of the lake,
I'm your superhero,
We are standing on the edge.
We are standing on the edge.

2. _ Subterranian Homesick Alien
The breath of the morning,
I keep forgetting
The smell of the warm summer air.
I live in a town
Where you can't smell a thing,
You watch your feet
For cracks in the pavement.
Up above, aliens hover
Making home movies for the folk back home.
Of all these weird creatures who lock up their spirits,
Drill holes in themselves and live for their secrets.
They're all...
Uptight.
I wish that they'd swoop down, in a country lane,
Late at night when i'm driving.
Take me onboard their beautiful ship, show me the world as i'd love to see it.
I'd tell all my friends but they'd never believe me
They'd think that i'd finally lost it completely.
I'd show them the stars, and the meaning of life.
They'd shut me away, but i'd be alright.
Alright.
I'm just...
Uptight!

3. _ Fitter Happier
Fitter, happier, more productive,
Comfortable,
Not drinking too much,
Regular exercise at the gym
(3 days a week),
Getting on better with your associate employee contemporaries ,
At ease,
Eating well
(no more microwave dinners and saturated fats),
A patient better driver,
A safer car
(baby smiling in back seat),
Sleeping well
(no bad dreams),
No paranoia,
Careful to all animals
(never washing spiders down the plughole),
Keep in contact with old friends
(enjoy a drink now and then),
Will frequently check credit at
(moral) bank (hole in the wall),
Favors for favors,
Fond but not in love,
Charity standing orders,
On sundays ring road supermarket
(no killing moths or putting boiling water on the ants),
Car wash
(also on sundays),
No longer afraid of the dark or midday shadows
Nothing so ridiculously teenage and desperate,
Nothing so childish - at a better pace,
Slower and more calculated,
No chance of escape,
Now self-employed,
Concerned (but powerless),
An empowered and informed member of society
(pragmatism not idealism),
Will not cry in public,
Less chance of illness,
Tires that grip in the wet
(shot of baby strapped in back seat),
A good memory,
Still cries at a good film,
Still kisses with saliva,
No longer empty and frantic
Like a cat
Tied to a stick,
That's driven into
Frozen winter shit
(the ability to laugh at weakness),
Calm,
Fitter,
Healthier and more productive
A pig
In a cage
On antibiotics.

4. _ Let Down
Transport, motorways and tramlines,
Starting and then stopping,
Taking off and landing,
The emptiest of feelings,
Disappointed people, clinging on to bottles,
And when it comes it's so, so, disappointing.
Let down and hanging around,
Crushed like a bug in the ground.
Let down and hanging around.
Shell smashed, juices flowing
Wings twitch, legs are going,
Don't get sentimental,
It always ends up drivel.
One day, i'm gonna grow wings,
A chemical reaction,
Hysterical and useless
Hysterical and
Let down and hanging around,
Crushed like a bug in the ground.
Let down and hanging around.
Let down,
Let down,
Let down.
You know, you know where you are with,
You know where you are with,
Floor collapsing, falling, bouncing back
And one day, i'm gonna grow wings,
A chemical reaction, [you know where you are,]
Hysterical and useless [you know where you are,]
Hysterical and [you know where you are,]
Let down and hanging around,
Crushed like a bug in the ground.
Let down and hanging around.

5. _ Airbag
In the next world war
In a jackknifed juggernaut, i am born again.
In the neon sign, scrolling up and down
I am born again.
In an interstella burst.... i am back to save the uuuuuniverse.
In a deep deep sleep, of the innocent
I am born again.
In a fast german car, i'm amazed that i survived
An airbag saved my life.
In an interstella blast.... i am back to save the uuuuuniverse.
In an interstella blast.... i am back to save the uuuuuniverse.

6. _ Exit Music (for A Film)
Wake... from your sleep
The drying of your tears
Today.. we escape
We escape.
Pack and get dressed
Before your father hears us
Before.. all hell.. breaks loose.
Breathe... keep breathing
Don't lose.. your nerve.
Breathe... keep breathing
I can't do this.. alone.
Sing us a song
A song to keep us warm
There's such a chill
Such a chill.
You can laugh
A spineless laugh
We hope that your rules and wisdom choke you
Now we are one
In everlasting peace
We hope that you choke.. that you choke
We hope that you choke.. that you choke
We hope that you choke.. that you choke

7. _ No Surprises
A heart that's full up like a landfill,
A job that slowly kills you,
Bruises that won't heal.
You look so tired-unhappy,
Bring down the government,
They don't, they don't speak for us.
I'll take a quiet life,
A handshake of carbon monoxide,
With no alarms and no surprises,
No alarms and no surprises,
No alarms and no surprises,
Silent silence.
This is my final fit,
My final bellyache,
With no alarms and no surprises,
No alarms and no surprises,
No alarms and no surprises please.
Such a pretty house
And such a pretty garden.
No alarms and no surprises,
No alarms and no surprises,
No alarms and no surprises please.

8. _ Karma Police
Karma police
Karma police
Arrest this man
He talks in maths
He buzzeslikeafridge
He's like a detuned radio.
Karma police, arrest this girl
Her hitler hairdo
Is making me feel ill
And we have crashed her party
This is what you get
This is what you get
This is what you get..
When you mess with us.
Karma police
I've given all that i can
It's not enough
I've given all that i can
But we're still on the payroll.
This is what you get
This is what you get
This is what you get..
When you mess with us.
For a minute there...
I lost myself.. i lost myself
Phew for a minute there,
I lost myself.. i lost myself

9. _ Paranoid Android
Please could you stop the noise i'm trying to get some rest
From all the unborn chicken voices in my head.
What's that.........?
When i am king you will be first against the wall
With your opinion which is of no consequence at all
What's that.........?
Ambition makes you look pretty ugly
Kicking squealing gucci little piggy
You don't remember, you don't remember
Why don't you remember my name?
Off with is head man, off with his head man!
Why don't you remember my name?
I guess he does
Rain down
Rain down
Come on rain down.. on me
From a great height
From a great heeeeeeiiiiiiiiii. haaaaeeeeeeiiiiiii
Rain down
Rain down
Come on rain down.. on me
From a great height
From a great heeeeeeiiiiiiiiii. haaaaeeeeeeiiiiiii
Rain down
Rain down
Come on rain down.. on me
From a great height
From a great heeeeeeiiiiiiiiii. haaaaeeeeeeiiiiiii
(that's it sir,
You're leaving
The crackle of pig skin
The dust and the screaming
The yuppies networking
The panic, the vomit
The panic, the vomit
God loves his children,
God loves his children, yeah!)

10. _ The Tourist
It barks at no-one else but me,
Like it's seen a ghost.
I guess it's seen the sparks a-flowin,
No-one else would know.
Hey man, slow down, slow down,
Idiot, slow down, slow down.
Sometimes i get overcharged,
That's when you see sparks.
They ask me where the hell i'm going?
At a 1000 feet per second,
Hey man, slow down, slow down,
Idiot, slow down, slow down.
Hey man, slow down, slow down,
Idiot, slow down, slow down.

11. _ Electioneering
I will stop, i will stop at nothing.
Say the right things when electioneering
I trust i can rely on your vote.
When i go forwards you go backwards
And somewhere we will meet.
When i go forwards you go backwards
And somewhere we will meet.
Ha ha ha
Riot shields, voodoo economics,
It's just business, cattle prods and the i.m.f.
I trust i can rely on your vote.
When i go forwards you go backwards
And somewhere we will meet.
When i go forwards you go backwards
And somewhere we will meet.

12. _ Climbing Up The Walls
I am the key to the lock in your house
That keeps your toys in the basement,
And if you get too far inside
You'll only see my reflection.
See her face when she sleeps tonight,
I am the pick in the ice,
Do not cry out or hit the alarm,
We are we're friends till we die.
And either way you turn i'll be there,
Open up your skull, i'll be there
Climbing up the walls.
It's always best when the light is off,
It's always better on the outside,
In the crack of your wanting smile,
Fifteen blows to the skull.
So tuck the kids in safe tonight,
And shut the eyes in the cupboard.
Do not cry out or hit the alarm,
You'll get the loneliest feeling
That either way you turn i'll be there,
Open up your skull, i'll be there
Climbing up the walls.
Climbing up the walls.
Climbing up the walls.
