Well you know I`ve been dloating here for hours
Just like this
Suspended gently swaying like a pendulum
Look, no strings attached
There`s the odd insect
It don`t worry traffic control
But I just don`t seem to wake up
I`ve been all the way to Budapest
Seen riots, yes riots in Tibet
Seen the burning monks
Crackling in pain
Saw bombs in Gibraltar
Fear in Christ`s eyes
Frozen in concrete
As all of Europe fries
Wake up a mother`s son
Lynched in a graveyard
Bullets in MacDonald`s
Mottos born to kill
Tattoed on children`s skin
And when I saw the hole in the sky
At the north pole
I really wanted to wake up
I heard the last breath of the dolphin
Behind the doors on the fourth floor
Of a Manchester morgue
Little fingers on the durex machine
God bless them,
yes God bless them
And God bless Milton Keynes
Now I`ve been floating here
For thirty years
>From the mid west to the North Sea
Seen nothing but soot covered misery
Witnessed crossbreeding giving birth to
Bad dreams now I want to wake up
Now I`m floating here on the outer atmosphere
And I`ve brushed aside the waste paper
There`s a sign,
It says
Self destruct in 99
Evacuate.
