And The Thief Came In

AND THE THIEF CAME IN
Formaldehyde and glutaraldehyde too
With the methanol swirling round
Laid out in your room
And the Parish loved the tunes
Then the rain came down
Everything came crashing down
As we laid you in the ground
Seems like nothing’s ever gonna come easy
Feel like I'm unravelling slowly
If I swallow myself will I grow or disappear
Is it ok if I just sit here?
Camouflage balloon
That the thief came in
And the thief came in the night
Stole everything in sight
Seems like nothing's ever gonna come easy
Feel like I'm unravelling slowly
If I swallow myself will I grow or disappear
Is it ok if I just sit here?
Ain't nothing ever gonna come easy
I feel like I'm unravelling slowly
If I swallow myself will I grow or disappear
Is it ok if I just sit here?

BURNS
Well here comes the bomb now
Here comes the windows
Just keep your head down
They’re coming in
If you feel your spirit waning
Don’t be shy now
Take my hand

TSUNDOKU
I don't read a lot of books
But I like to buy them
Piled beside my bed
Gently reminding
My mind to open
And my heart to slow
Let the good part overflow
Circling the sun
It's the great conundrum
Oh there goes another one
Straight into the doldrums
Now my body's aching
And my mind is slow
Let the good part overflow
If your whole world's shaking
Try to keep control
And let the good part
Let the good part
Let the good part overflow
Tsundoku is what I do
Maybe you do it too?
Tsundoku is what I do

Walking Away

WALKING AWAY
Got to feeling down and all alone
And there’s nowhere around that feels like home
All those empty mouths talking
All those vacant eyes gawking
Took too much and now I’ve figured out
What this holy show is all about
In a plastic sea I’m floating
A fantastic dream is loading for you
I’m walking away
Singing a love song
I’m walking away
A recycled heart is better than
A disciple’s part in a broken plan
All those sacred houses fallen
A forsaken voice is calling for you
I’m walking away
Singing a love song
I’m walking away

The Golden Age

GOLDEN AGE
Coolest thing I ever seen
Flashback from the 1970s
Pale blonde Fender
Southern hair
Faded in the retro furniture
Our evaporating dreams
Built in garages on dead end streets
Nearly noises
Burned and blue
Casualties before we even knew
It’s the golden age
It’s the golden age
Way back when the world was good
Way back then before we understood
It’s the golden age
It’s the golden age
No fixation on the screens
‘cept for pixelated Spectrum games
Loading noises
Tapes to share
Some things never work but we don’t care
It’s the golden age
It’s the golden age
Way back when the world was good
Way back then before we understood
It’s the golden age
It’s the golden age

Chinooks

CHINOOKS
Burrow alone in the dark
Building a fort for my heart
Before it gets broken
By the government and the palindromes
Forcing my face to the wall
Violence running the halls
A crucifix of confusion
To carry alone
Remember the night that we heard those old bin lids
Renting the video tapes
Rewinding I plan my escape
I've always felt different
Even now in my middle days
Society isn't for me
I'll take the periphery
Dream of Rathlin East
You and I in the lamplight
Searching the night for the sound of old bin lids
Chinooks are on their way…

SALT
You say that it’s not my fault
You gotta sweet tooth and I’m salt
I don’t believe you
I don’t believe you
I don’t believe you
I like real butter on my bread
You’re saying it’s too hard to spread
I don’t believe you
I don’t believe you
I don’t believe you
How come it feels so
How come it feels so good
Even if it is true
You know that it feels so good
Your eyes are glued to the screen
You think my mind is obscene
I don’t believe you
I don’t believe you
I don’t believe you
How come it feels so
How come it feels so good
Even if it is true
You know that it feels so good

SOMEONE K NEW
Searching the scene
Stuck on the in-between
Somebody new
Suffering cos they’re not you
I twist a lot but it is never in time
There’s bound to be a better way till I find
Someone K New
Showed up and it wasn’t you
Standing alone
Cutting me to the bone
And all of the while
Still with the sweetest smile
I twist a lot but it is never in time
There’s bound to be a better way till I find
I twist a lot but it is never in time
There’s bound to be a better way till I find
Someone K New
Showed up and it wasn’t you

TRAMPOLINING
They're trampolining all over the place
While the machines are controlling the race
Bombs and bullets are bouncing all the children into heaven
Do you think that's right?
Hello one and all
Hello hello hello hello hello
I heard the government's moving the sky
And everywhere that you look is an eye
I'd love to know what they're hoping to reveal and what they're stealing
Is it my mind?
Hello one and all
Hello hello hello hello hello
Well all I want to do is bounce with you
And if your love is true you’d be bouncing too
Well all my waking dreams are of the bouncing scene
And it’s always you and me on the trampoline
I heard the birds they were calling your name
I tried to join in with them to my shame
It seems I haven't got harmony and so I
Simply won't fly
Hello one and all
Hello hello hello hello hello
Goodbye it's time to go
