Vikings 03:58
Hey you! What are you doing here? Who sent you? Where you come from? So, what's your name? Do you have one? You better disappear Before we sacrifice you There's ringing in my ears Mountains of tears They put out the fire They found us the elixir You better disappear Before we sacrifice you If I lean on you I will fall

Just Landed 03:39
Hello businessman with the dodgy suitcase Have you any news to spare You know we've got some eyes that are going double Double vision here we come You know you look like You look like you could do with a mind You see some models playing out by the sun Naked as the day is long You know we've got some petrol We could have some fun Armageddon here we come You know you look like You look like you could do with a mind Oh yeah, all right Sell your TV, sell the car, Sell the office, sell the bar Sell your neck on the line When you're doing double-time With your neck on the line You look like, you look like... Okay, let's go Alright Come on boys Take it away

Dark Grey 05:36
On the road, 77¢ in his pocket, Fires blaze, Drown the Californian sun, He tried to stamp them out, His dreams up in orange, They're gasping in LA, The water runs dry, As his wife drives to the South, But now here it comes, The dark grey clouds are rising, Did you fail to realise, And look here it comes, The dark grey clouds are rising, You can run but you can't hide, Look there, there's no solution, Dark grey, dark grey confusion, He put away his gun, He turned it on himself...

Lost 05:59
You walk by me head in hands You tried to get yourself back I know that things will never be the same I can tell that you've lost track No one's lending you a hand And yet you can't understand Why everybody's not into you You think everybody else is mad You're lost You can't take it anymore, no I can't be there to pick up your pieces I have problems of my own A few smiles, words are exchanged But in the end, you're on your own The proximity of our engagement is: "Don't I know you from school?" But the atmosphere speaks differently Back to when I was your fool You're lost You can't take it anymore, no So here we are What are we doing? You go your way and I'll go mine I'm walking while you're still talking For you I just don't have the time You're lost You can't take it anymore Ave Maria Gratia plena

Shelley 02:24
I want to buy a house that I can't afford I want to drive the car that I can't afford I want to eat the food that I can't afford I want to live the life that I can't afford In the Anthropocene The Anthropocene The irony So give me a sofa Give me a TV Give me cigarettes and apathy We're drinking plastic water We're drinking plastic tea We're drinking plastic coffee from the plastic machine In the Anthropocene The Anthropocene I want to buy a house that I can't afford I want to drive the car that I can't afford I want to eat the food that I can't afford I want to live the life that I can't afford In the Anthropocene So give me a sofa Give me a TV Give me cigarettes and apathy We're drinking plastic water We're drinking plastic tea We're drinking plastic coffee from the plastic machine Do not adjust your set Welcome to the real world, my friends...
