1. _ Sweden
I would like to live in sweden
When my work is done
Where the snow lies crisp and even
'neath the midnight sun
Safe and clean and green and modern
Bright and breezy

2. _ Generation Sex
Generation sex
Respects
The rights
Of girls
Who want to take their clothes off
As long as we can all watch that's okay
And generation sex
Elects
The type
Of guys
You wouldn't leave your kids with
And shouts "off with their heads" if they get laid
Lovers watch their backs
As hacks
In macs
Take snaps
Through telephoto lenses
Chase mercedes benzes through the night
A mourning nation weeps
And wails
But keeps
The sales
Of evil tabloids healthy
The poor protect the wealthy in this world
Generation sex
Injects
The sperm
Of worms
Into the eggs of field mice
So you can look real nice for the boys
And generation sex
Is me
And you
And we
Should really all know better

3. _ Thrillseeker
When you hang by a thread
Strange things go through your head
What was in that woodshed?
Will death be gentle?
"better to live one day like a lion
Than a thousand sheepishly",
Say dead oriental...
I'm a thrillseeker honey

4. _ Sunrise
I was born in londonderry
I was born in derry city too
Oh what a special child
To see such things and still to smile
I know that there was something wrong
But i kept my head down and carried on
I grew up in enniskillen
I grew up in inis ceathlain too
Oh what a clever boy
To watch your hometown be destroyed
I know that would not stay long
So i kept my head down and carried on
Who cares where national borders lie
Who cares whose laws you're governed by
Who cares what name you call a town
Who'll care when you're six feet beneath the ground
From the corner of my eye
A hint of blue in the black sky
A ray of hope, a beam of light
An end to thirty years of night
The church-bells ring, the children sing
What is this strange and beautiful thing
It's the sunrise
Can you see the sunrise?
I can see the sunrise

5. _ Life On Earth
Build your coffin of balsa wood
Spend all that you earn
When you go you are gone for good
Never to return
Always to thine own self be true
Not to fools like me
Who'll change their minds
For the sake of rhyming schemes
Au revoir joi, bonjour tristesse
Only pain and sorrow
So don't rely on the stars above
Screw the universe
You'd better try to live your life on earth
So au revoir joi, bonjour tristesse
Good times come and they go
This life owes nobody happiness
Only pain and sorrow
So don't rely on the stars above
Screw the universe
You'd better try to live your life on earth
I'm gonna try to live my life on earth

6. _ Commuter Love
Freezing monday morning
She is waiting for her train to come
I brush past her, smell her perfume
Watch her hair move as she turns to go
She doesn't know i exist
I'm gonna keep it like this
I'm not gonna take any risks this time
She's not like the others
With their papers and their headphones on
She reads novels by french authors with loose morals
She can do no wrong
I wouldn't say i'm obsessed
I don't wanna see her undressed
We can be prince and princess in my dream
And we're dancing
Through the evening
'til the morning

7. _ National Express
Take the national express when your life's in a mess
It'll make you smile
All human life is here
From the feeble old dear to the screaming child
From the student who knows that to have one of those
Would be suicide
To the family man
Manhandling the pram with paternal pride
And everybody sings "ba ba ba da..."
We're going where the air is free
On the national express there's a jolly hostess
Selling crisps and tea
She'll provide you with drinks and theatrical winks
For a sky-high fee
Mini-skirts were in style when she danced down the aisle
Back in '63 (yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah)
But it's hard to get by when your arse is the size
Of a small country
And everybody sings "ba ba ba da..."
We're going where the air is free
Tomorrow belongs to me
When you're sad and feeling blue
With nothing better to do
Don't just sit there feeling stressed
Take a trip on the national express

8. _ Here Comes The Flood
Here comes the flood
Rivers of mud, baby
Here comes the quake
Evacuate while you still can
Here comes the fire
Our funeral pyre, baby
Here comes the flood
Here comes the blood bath
Here comes the fly
Fifty foot high, baby
Here comes the war
More blood and gore
Than you can stand
Here comes the race
From outer space, baby
It's all over
We're all gonna die
If the good lord intended me to live in l.a., he'd have given me a machine gun. still, here i am, just another little worried citizen of this modern-day pompeii waiting for the melt-down, the sh
Wn, the great american close-down. when that fault-line that runs right through society's fabric finally snaps and the whole damn thing starts unravelling. why watch the sports channel, when you
Watch cnn? ladies and gentlemen, the greatest race in history, the race to end all races, in fact the race to end history. in lane one

9. _ Eric The Gardener
Eric the gardener
Julius cæsar came, saw, conquered, went away
'cause it rained here all the time
Too many sniffs and colds
Got up his roman nose
So he left it all behind for eric the gardener to find
Eric the gardener will find eric the gardener
Julius cæsar knew that when his life was through
Something of him would stay behind
Not in a roman tomb or in an italian womb
But buried deep in english slime
For eric the gardener to find
Eric the gardener will find eric the gardener
Julius cæsar sleeps soundly beneath your feet
With the rest of human-kind
Dig deep and dig some more
Dig to the planet's core
Dig 'til you've gone out of your mind
But all you will ever really find is eric the gardener
All you can ever hope to find is eric the gardener

10. _ The Certainty Of Chance
A butterfly flies through the forest rain
And turns the wind into a hurricane
I know that it will happen
'cause i believe in the certainty of chance
A schoolboy yawns, sits back and hits return
While round the world computers crash and burn
I know that it will happen
'cause i believe in the certainty of chance
And i believe
I can see it all so clearly now
You must go and i must set you free
'cause only that will bring you back to me
I know that it will happen
Because i believe in the certainty of chance
Sometimes at night the darkness and silence weighs on me. peace frightens me. perhaps i fear it most of all. i feel it's only a facade, hiding the face of hell. i think of what's in store for my
Dren tomorrow; "the world will be wonderful", they say; but from whose viewpoint? we need to live in a state of suspended animation, like a work of art; in a state of enchantment... de
