Verse 1 Set amidst the crumbling of the church of fact More upsetting now is the mandate set behind that All that matters is that blame stays fixed on the right track Passing through the circle of chaos, into havoc Chorus 1 It's gone, it's gone, it's gone, its gone, its gone, gone, gone too far It's gone, it's gone, it's gone, its gone, its gone, gone, gone too far It's gone, it's gone, it's gone, its gone, its gone, gone, gone too far It's gone, it's gone, it's gone, its gone, its gone, gone, gone Verse 2 It’s not so much in the death of it What hurts now is the irrelevance of it Now sadly it’s become a fool’s errand To find the actual truth before worlds end Verse 3 ‘gotta realise It's just in the nature of it It’s never been in it just for the thrill of it Don’t be fooled its more so for the spite of it In doing so, making it so hard to start to fight it Chorus 2 It's gone, it's gone, it's gone, its gone, its gone, gone, gone too far It's gone, it's gone, it's gone, its gone, its gone, gone, gone too far It's gone, it's gone, it's gone, its gone, its gone, gone, gone too far It's gone, it's gone, it's gone, its gone, its gone, gone, gone Instrumental break Verse 4 Excuse me sir there's a show going on Grotesque parade of self-congratulation See the punch line to a joke none wanted told As all boundaries quickly and completely devolve Chorus 3 It's gone, it's gone, it's gone, its gone, its gone, gone, gone too far It's gone, it's gone, it's gone, its gone, its gone, gone, gone too far It's gone, it's gone, it's gone, its gone, its gone, gone, gone too far It's gone, it's gone, it's gone, its gone, its gone, gone, gone

Verse 1 Don't mind, don't mind, don't mind, being here on the outside wouldn't mind, wouldn't mind, wouldn't mind, being asked to come inside Never mind, never mind, never mind, been 20 years on my mind It's a sign, it’s a sign, it's a sign........sigh Verse 2 It's a grind, it's a grind, it's a grind, of a sort of kind So kind, so kind, so kind, to give some extra time In a blind, binding bind, inclined to decline the lifeline It's a sign, its a sign, it's a sign........sigh Instrumental break Verse 3 What you find, most kinds, fine line, what is done as kind I find, benign kinds, change minds, what is much maligned Justice finds, no crime, just as blind, we'll be ok in time It's a sign, it’s a sign, it's a sign........sigh

Verse 1 It started out just like this It started out just for little kicks It started out so, so slow It started out wrapped in a warm afterglow Chorus 1 Then it came to me, none of this supposed to be Then the day came for me for the day to come for me Then that day came to be, threatened nothing will now be When the day comes for me...... Verse 2 And soon enough it was hard work And sure enough it often, often, often really hurt And soon enough space for nothing more And sure enough the price paid soared and soared Chorus 2 Then it came to me, none of this supposed to be Then the day came for me for the day to come for me Then that day came to be, threatened nothing will now be When the day comes for me...... Verse 3 It ended up in a huge mess It ended up could have been much, much worse Its ended up scars nearly all healed Its ended up surprisingly the heart still feels Chorus 3 Then it came to me, none of this supposed to be Then the day came for me for the day to come for me Then that day came to be, threatened nothing will now be When the day comes for me......

Verse 1 No, war is not likely The dangers are too great But war is not impossible The stakes are too high Chorus 2 Cease, Cease and desist.... Won't you Please cease and desist.... Won't you ...... cease and desist Verse 2 Where you are with what you have The dog whistle comments a call to arms Yes, no, thanks, please I'd do that, that's what I do, I do it well Chorus 3 Cease, Cease and desist.... Won't you Please cease and desist.... Won't you ...... cease and desist Verse 3 If it’s not reprehensible, least it's questionable Whatever he says is true, sort of true, at least ought to Doubles down, repeats himself, grows belligerent Rants just look, I wrote the book, big book of, sook, sook, sook, sook Chorus 4 Cease, Cease and desist.... Won't you Please cease and desist.... Won't you ...... cease and desist Verse 4 Dude, your brother, totally bugging out This truth brought, from my personal stash four great dichotomies, crystallising the crux With Loss of object, freak out with the TRuK Chorus 5 Cease, Cease and desist.... Won't you Please cease and desist.... Won't you ...... cease and desist ...... cease and desist ...... cease and desist ...... cease and desist ...... cease and desist

Verse 1 It's playing around with her, with her, with her head It's ratcheting up, his already up there sense of dread It wasn't nearly this bad, at the turn of the century now children crying at the TV, do those people really want us dead Chorus Big kill Big kill Big kill Verse 2 It could come by land, by sea, or like the first time by air Radicalising our views of the enemy, what's real and what's fair Knocking down the symbols of our might, our right and liberty Tearing inside out notions of pious first world segregated safety Chorus 2 Big kill Big kill Big kill Instrumental break Verse 3 Civilizing mission, atoning, immoral crusade At cross purposes with the cross bearing zeitgeist brigade Instruments of construction, instructed, assigned to destruction This unit has a bad motivator, deadman detonator Chorus 3 Big kill Big kill Big kill Verse 4 Where sickness thrives, bad things follow, home is now behind you Gotta keep the riff raff out, any cost, already here don't you know Causality is irrelevant, no atheists found in the trench We create our conditions, surprised when Met with prompt revenge Chorus 4 Big kill Big kill Big kill

Verse 1 Little known dual underground Life in a place of gold strut around be-jeweled Like some kind of war god Heartless heart, mirror eyes, little else to wear Until the price for the price Came, too much to bear to bare Chorus 1 I didn't know Didn't care I didn't know No, no, no, no, no I didn't know No, no, no No, no, no, no, no didn't care no, no, no I didn't know Didn't care I didn't know Verse 2 Couldn't you tell It was all falling aside Couldn't you tell There was little good left inside Wouldn't you say That was some coincidence That there was a switch Of such consequence Chorus 2 I didn't know Didn't care I didn't know No, no, no, no, no I didn't know No, no, no No, no, no, no, no didn't care no, no, no I didn't know Didn't care I didn't know Verse 3 Absence of pain Sure stung for a while But time alone with the phone ringing Actualised the lie They say, all knowledge costs Even cost the whole lot And that, that's why it sure feels better When all the banging stops Chorus 3 Now I know I know Now I know Now, now, now, now, now that I know No, no no Now, now, now, now, now that I know no, no, no

Verse 1 In Breaking news, today, ay, ay She’s, back from the frontline, swears, not here to stay It was, the kiss of death, oh no, from the baby, to the man That, was what it was, she, willed it to be Verse 2 Alarms should sound, purrs the, curse lady You'll, rue the day, you first, pursued me Your past, security, through partial obscurity Its gone too late her scope now set, to stun, then gang bang bang away Instrumental break Verse 3 With please see do the needful, trying, keep doubt at bay The hardest thing, was to not feel, guilty I'd say It was, just a matter of facts, it was, blah blah blah and all that When, all was said and done, like that, her power, slipping away Verse 4 It was all experimental, in the, midst of the fray Perversely bloody, at some points, along the way But it, was necessary, cause cure, same actually You are what you choose, now choose as I, don’t care away

Chorus 1 I'm going around and around You're going around and around We're going around, around, around..... I'm going around and around You're going around and around We're going around, around, around...... Verse 1 And I want it to stop And I need it to stop not a negotiation This is a notification Isn't it sufficient The transgression was legitimate Underwent the procedure, panic button interfaced With the feigned helpless ignorance That threatens, insults our magnificence Chorus 2 I'm going around and around You're going around and around We're going around, around, around..... I'm going around and around You're going around and around We're going around, around, around...... Verse 2 And You want it to stop And You need it to stop Are you the freaky girl Who can be satisfied with ease After tactical withdrawal The mess my dear, inevitable Premature intimacy Affected fabulosity But despite all of the probing The code is not yet broken Chorus 3 I'm going around and around You're going around and around We're going around, around, around..... I'm going around and around You're going around and around We're going around, around, around...... Verse 3 And We want it to stop And We need it to stop What is secure Is the question and the fear The threat of a meaning In these decommissioned dealings Escaping the tyranny Of predetermined equilibrium Whores will have their trinkets Mutually assured extinction

Chorus 1 Right now Right now Right now Right now Verse 1 you explain your vision, of modern hate love Of giddy anger, improvised on a gilted stage You'll say anything, to make the sale today Orchestrating us, like a maestro they say Chorus 2 Right now, for now Right now, for now Right now, for now Right now Verse 2 It was sudden, no warning, pirate dog whistled to "go" Papers flew, tempers flared, physics kept getting in the way Soon the pilots launched, bid to recast his spell Trying in vain, stem the calamity that's his way Chorus 3 Right now Right now Right now Right now Verse 3 Buzzed from his midday jolt, slack-jawed admiration 6 ft 2 wild haired goon roars, get 'em outta here' Where will this get us, the pundits are appalled Polls now read insiders strategy has failed Chorus 4 Right now, for now Right now, for now Right now, for now Right now Instrumental break Chorus 5 Right now Right now Right now Right now Verse 4 Smiling in his flying penthouse, as the world babbles heatedly Will we see him for what he is in real time, in front of tv Not what greatness looks like, uniting to destroy For tomorrow, we must reject your hate mongering, bigotry Chorus 6 Right now, for now Right now, for now Right now, for now Right now

Verse 1- Not fabulously good Not outstandingly bad No off the scale happiness Starting out at best ambivalent Chorus 2- I used to love you I used to care I used to love you I used to care..... But now..... Verse 2- After The so-called honeymoon That charisma sure got old With your perverse incentive schemes Funding all of those mixed metaphors Chorus 3- I used to love you I used to care I used to love you I used to care..... But now..... Verse 3- True Nature is with no answer a need to lie to tell the truth Pretty enough is pretty close But Not close enough to close this deal Chorus 4- I used to love you I used to care I used to love you I used to care..... But now... Verse 4- When it comes to be the one Who's come to know you the best Decides you are a bit of a loser You kind of have to start to believe Chorus 5- I used to love you I used to care I used to love you I used to care.....

Verse 3 Hipsters in fancy unfancy costume cosplay display Beards, glasses, trophy friends As far as we can barely see What we are doing here Is just for weekends for now What are we doing here is this good for our wellbeing, well how? Chorus 3 And we go and we go, Woo woo woo And we go and we go, Woo woo woo And the crowd goes, they go, Woo woo woo And the crowd goes, they go.......
