Anxiety Dream
03:05
|
|||
chased down the road
by an unpaid bill
wading through treacle
going down uphill
anxiety dream!
it's an anxiety dream
it's an anxiety dream
it's an anxiety dream
all your friends have died
in a nuclear war
the only people left
don't like you any more
sitting an exam for a subject you've not studied
everyone is laughing
but it's not very funny
getting on the tube
in the wrong direction
kicked out of the band
by your own rhythm section
another bad night's sleep
yet another nightmare
fight your brain
psychological warfare
in berlin verloren
umgeben von leuten
ich weiss nicht
und ich spreche nicht deutsch
angst traum!
es ist en angst traum
es ist en angst traum
es ist en angst traum
wake up! (in a cold sweat)
wake up! (in a cold sweat)
wake up! (in a cold sweat)
wake up!

this town is winding me up
and i can't help feeling stuck
this town is winding me up
this town is sucking me down
and everything makes me frown
this town is sucking me down
this town is twisting my head
with all the things that've been said
this town is twisting my head
this town is turning me round
and all my efforts rebound
this town is turning me round
twisting and turning and tightening
a double bind
i've seen another spiral
and i'm trying not to lose my mind
twist and turning
around, around, a spinning top
i've seen another spiral
make it, make it, make it stop
this town is grinding my skin
and bruising what lies within
this town is grinding my skin
this town is tightening the screws
i see no way not to lose
this town is mesmerising
like i just can't move a thing
this town is mesmerising
this town is dizzying me
and i just can't seem to see
this town is dizzying me
twisting and turning and tightening
a double bind
i've seen another spiral
and i'm trying not to lose my mind
twist and turning
around, around, a ticking clock
i've seen another spiral
make it, make it, make it stop
this town is winding me up
this town is sucking me down
this town is twisting my head
this town is turning me round
this town is grinding my skin
this town is-, this town is-,
this town is-

Competition
02:42
|

you said it’s karaoke
come on, it’s a bit of fun
but now i’m standing here
i guess i feel like i’ve been done
if it’s not a competition
why are you always trying to win?
if it’s not a competition
why am i always losing?
i didn’t realise your ambition
why are you always trying to win?
turns out this was my audition
why am i always losing?
i just wanted to get drunk
and dance while i was off my head
little did i know that you were
trying to get on instead
why do i get the feeling you’re gathering material?
perhaps you never really wanted to be here at all
if it’s not a competition
why are you always trying to win?
if it’s not a competition
why am i always losing?
i didn’t realise your ambition
why are you always trying to win?
turns out this was my audition
why am i always losing?
it’s just a cleansing ritual
go in dirty, come out clean
there’s really nothing to it
there’s no skill to showering
there’s no need to do the next thing
only if you are advanced
but you just can’t relax
for fear that you will miss you chance
if it’s not a competition
why are you always trying to win?
if it’s not a competition
why am i always losing?
i didn’t realise your ambition
why are you always trying to win?
turns out this was my audition
why am i always losing?
i’ve been going out with a girl
her name is julie
but last night she said to me
while we were watching telly
this is what she said
she said – “listen, ally,
“it’s not a competition!”
(two three four)
if it’s not a competition
why are you always trying to win?
if it’s not a competition
why am i always losing?
i didn’t realise your ambition
why are you always trying to win?
turns out this was my audition
why am i always losing?

and i'm sweating like a creep
feeling like a fucking wilted flower
five past four and i'm logging off
fuck seven hours when i feel this shit
five past four and i'm out the door
what's the point of working if you can't get pissed?
i feel sick and i feel tired
(he feels sick and he feels tired)
i feel sick and i feel tired
(he feels sick and he feels tired)
i feel sick and i feel tired
(he feels sick and he feels tired)
i feel sick and i feel tired
(he feels sick and he feels tired)

Rip Yr Fucking Cock Off
01:08
|
|||
this one is going out to
lads and their banter
those who stand too close
‘accidentally’ touching you at gigs
saying “smile, love, it might never happen
and why are you so fucking rude anyway?”
giving compliments like
“you look so much prettier without make-up”
thanks!
those male feminists whose primary concern
is how patriarchy hurts men
and the rest of you…
rip your fucking cock off!
suck it yourself!
rip your fucking cock off!
suck it yourself!
rip your fucking cock off!
suck it yourself!
rip your fucking cock off!
suck it yourself!
i hope you’re all enjoying
this nice weather we’ve been having
so many great opportunities
to meet creeps in the street
and hear their opinions
about your apparel
and your appearance
great!
rip your fucking cock off!
suck it yourself!
rip your fucking cock off!
suck it yourself!
rip your fucking cock off!
suck it yourself!
rip your fucking cock off!
suck it yourself!

indeterminate hours
awake and asleep
time travelling
let’s make this interesting
what’s in the bag?

the first twelve years of life
miniature cuts from miniature knives
ice crystal shards
stuck in his heart

Crossrail
03:54
|

sin, metro, cable, the george
north, south, east, west
turnmills, the coronet, the ghetto, the joiners
north, south, east, west
some might say it was bad luck
burrowing into plague pits
destroying our nighttime economy
destroying our communities
the graves they unearthed
the spirits disturbed
in stygian darkness
in threefold returned
there used to be arches and factory spaces
there used to be theatres and other places
now gated enclosures and empty flats
privatised spaces for rentier rats
the places we met
the places we’d dance
noise controlled and shorn of romance
a million ways to travel there
a million ways to travel there
a million ways to travel there
but nowhere much to go
a million ways to travel there
but nowhere much to go
another week, another notice of closure
now i curse you crossrail for defiling our city
in the north and in the south i curse you
in the west and in the east i curse you
by the clay of the soil and the smog of the air i curse you by the dark waters of our river
and the great fire that renews us i curse you
by the spirits of london past i curse you
with plague, and with flood and with riot i curse you
reverse crossrail, be undone
i curse you, i curse you, i curse you
north, south, east, west
earth, air, fire, water
