Pre-game buzz
Before the show
recorded public denouncement
Advice, There'll be a short delay
Short delay, short delay, short delay
Save the clubs
Raise your glass bar
Cheers, both sides of the curtain
Word is, there'll be a short delay
Short delay, short delay, short delay
Technically difficult experience
Diligence, straddling negligence
Blind industry vs. expectancy
A call for patience please
There'll be a short delay
Short delay, short delay, short delay

Blankness, blinkers
Kindness of strangers
While there's life, and the will
You better keep on
Run like hell
Run like hell
Run like hell
Start, stop, half listen
Feign interest, on condition
Stomp the boss, Big Muff as well
Be blown away, or
Run like hell
Run like hell
Run like hell
End it, with resolve
To stunned silence, scattered applause
House lights up, no one could tell
The gig was up, so
Run like hell
Run like hell
Run like hell

Hey, haven't we met somewhere
Yeah, I'm sure, I've seen you here before
Then you used a different name
You've changed a bit, something new
Settled in just the same
Oh, come right in, the drink's for me
Slow night at the Liberty Tavern
Dawn tired, hurts my eyes
Buzzing sleep, tease, stories please
Had said as much before, but not for quite a while
Karma coming round I guess, with a nervous laugh, a half smile
Oh, come right in, the drink's for me
Slow night at the Liberty Tavern
Hey, haven't we met somewhere

Uh, huh, must've been a doppelgänger
bonded, branded, double fisted head banger
Uh, huh, must've been a doppelgänger
Twice as bad, twice as hard, twice as long eh
You came, you saw
Sold pretty sores, you said you came, watching
Rage flickering
Reflected selves snickering
You are what you hate
Uh, huh, a case of missed identity
Prime mistimed object relativity
Uh, huh a case of mixed identity
Growling, prowling, anonymous satiety
You came, you saw
Sold pretty sores, you said you came, watching
Rage flickering
Reflected selves snickering
You are what you hate
You came, you saw
Sold pretty sores, you said you came, watching
Rage flickering
Reflected selves snickering
You are what you hate

From joy, we hope to arise
And grow, under watchful eyes
A bit of you, a bit of me too
What a wondrous thing we did do
Or so they say
On the rocks
On the rocks
On the rocks
On the rocks
They sail, from our harbour
Disregarding, our hard labour
Don't you worry, take it from here
Our eyes filled with tears
On the rocks
On the rocks
Oh no!, taking on water
Repairs, just left for later
Easy, blame in hindsight
No surprises tonight
Down here
On the rocks
On the rocks
On the rocks
On the rocks
Daylight breaks, as this is realised
No time left, to philosophise
What went wrong, who is to blame
Reviewing the story, frame by frame
On the rocks
On the rocks
We stop, tend to our wounds
With regret, we are bound
In the end, a "told you so"
Better than, being laid below
Or so they say
On the rocks
On the rocks
On the rocks
On the rocks
In our patchwork craft, we return
Peaceful waters, once more
With the truth, that saved us out there
It sure to helps to have a light, to guide by
Down here
On the rocks
On the rocks
On the rocks
On the rocks

It's not black and white
If its black and white
An image, an imitation
Of a life in grey and red
Monochrome
Monochrome
Monochrome
Monochrome
Pocked faces fixed
Time stands still
An expression, an experience
And these half truths outshine the dead
Monochrome
Monochrome

Monochrome
Monochrome

Secret filled,
Pun, pain laced new black journal
For years in a vault it was saved
Now it's reading like walking on somebody's grave
So excuse the skepticism
Of this blind corporate love tunnel vision
Rules of engagement, no competition
Now as then plus 100% commission
Let's hear it again
Let's do it again
Let's try it again
Let's buy it again
Let's buy it again
Let's buy it again
Let's buy it again, buy it
Again and again and again and again
Again and again and again and again
Again and again and again and again, again
Lest we forget
The lessons of the summer of '91
Down in the funkyard you couldn't
Complain too much, you couldn't take too much
So a perfect malcontent malaise
Needs commercial infantalising today
So the downturn can be caught on the upswing
By the self professed next big things
Let's hear it again
Let's do it again
Let's try it again
Let's buy it again
Let's buy it again
Let's buy it again
Let's buy it again, buy it
Again and again and again and again
Again and again and again and again
Again and again and again and again, again
Let's hear it again
Let's do it again
Let's try it again
Let's buy it again
Let's buy it again
Let's buy it again
Let's buy it again, buy it
Again and again and again and again
Again and again and again and again
Again and again and again and again, again

Captured, a raid of conquest
Bored, blonde Nubian prize
Existing, not exciting
Where's the sport, the suspense, the fun
Don't get to know her slowly
Well dressed, so cute with the schnauzer
If you listen carefully you can hear her smile
And sigh, just walk on by
This is the last
This is the last, last, last
This is the last
This is the last, last, last
Pussy cares, only for pussy
Come here, my little tiger
Esteemed do'er of nasty
A face, ugly with loathing
Take it all off she orders
Get off on it all
Push it so damn far and
Wait, wait, wait for the fall
This is the last
This is the last, last, last
This is the last
This is the last, last, last
This is the last
This is the last, last, last
This is the last

Make peace with the hammer-time, yeah?

Compassionate aggression
Dispassionate tension
Stale, stalemate situation
If you're uncomfortable, just say so, tell me what I need to know
Give me, give me some feedback
I don't care, just whatever
Give me, give me some feedback
but be warned, Be held by it for forever Never Forever Never Forever
An alienated saviour
With stolen valour
It's a mandated endeavour
With a sense of urgency, non-urgently, tell me what I need to know
Give me, give me some feedback
I don't care, just whatever
Give me, give me some feedback
but be warned, be held by it for forever Never Forever Never Forever
It is a whalens infraction
Oh wow, mobile hallucination
And don't , don't , don't you suck the poor brain
In the isolation of attention, tell me what I need to know
Give me, give me some feedback
I don't care, just whatever
Give me, give me some feedback
but be warned, be held by it for forever Never Forever Never Forever

Looking for a glimpse of the old world
Unavailable for comment, beyond the wall
He knows where it is, down two flights of stairs
If he could just get through the doors
But that was such a long time ago
That was such a long time ago
Uh, uh, such a long, long, long, longtime ago
Such an awfully long time ago
He remembers night, where he could not recall his name
A thousand of those hazy nights lay ahead
Even though, he has moved, far away from this
He is set to return as the prodigal son
But that was such a long time ago
That was such a long time ago
Uh, uh, such a long, long, long, longtime ago
Such an awfully long time ago
He finds himself missing the simple things
Walking nowhere with the truth
Security, insecurity
He finds no solace here no more, no more, no more
He's gotta realise that was a long time ago
And that it was worlds and worlds away
Uh, uh, worlds and worlds away
Worlds away, a long time ago
Worlds away, a long time ago
Worlds away, a long time ago
Worlds away, a long time ago
Worlds away, a long time ago
Worlds away, a long time ago

You're so- super reflective
You are so- quietly virtuous
You're so- gyroscopic
You are so- rationally superstitious
You're so, I'm so
Still in the blame evasion game
You're so, I'm so
Veinly taming enabled Kane
You're so, I'm so
Waning ying to the stained yang
You're so, I'm so
One and the freakin' same
One and the same
One and the same
One and the same
Yourso- imitative
You are so- meekly litigious
Yourso- omnidirectional
You are so- mysteriously superfluous
Did you ever think?, did you ever feel?, and will you ever?
One and the same
One and the same
One and the same
One and the same
