Angry Neighbour

I've got an Angry Neighbour
He sucks himself off like you could never imagine
I've got a lonely neighbour
His only friends are the bums that buy his drugs
Too drunk to reason, too dumb to listen, too old to even care
He's a Jekyll and Hyde
He comes a-knocking when he's out of his head
I've got an Angry Neighbour
He swings his mood like he would a cat around his head
I know an ardent complainer
I'd like to make him taste his helicopter treatment
Loving complaining, bringing me paining, my patience straining
Even when its raining!
Well he's a Jekyll and Hyde
He comes a-knocking when he's out of his head

I've got this Fabulous Friend, and I'm lucky cause I know he'll be there till the end. He's my brother from another, and at times he's been my mother. He's my Fabulous Friend. Well he's my brother brother brother, from another mother, working undercover tonight. He's got the gift of the gab, tell you jokes while hailing a cab, talk the barman into a free tab, recite him quotes from Mercutio's Queen Mab. He's on a mission everyday. He's not easy to persuade, unless you're female and play scrabble, perform him poetry while giving him a straddle. He's an educated thinker, can still impress you as a drinker. Not your regular clinkety-clinker. He's my Fabulous Friend. Well he's my brother brother brother, from another mother, working undercover tonight.

Technicolour Torment
07:54

We've all been raised in this modern generation
Endured and suffered endless media saturation
Vehement visual violation
Total Technicolour Tormentation
The writings now on every wall
Extreme words have lost their meaning
Promiscuous products they are preaching
Preying on passive people unaware
Bright colours fade to grey as they dictate their prayers
Megalomaniacs sucking up the cash jack
Grab the fattest cat and hook him to the stash pack
Ego-sheening enjoying overweening, employing alter-meaning
Polish him up until he's gleaming
Pacifist unobjectionable cuddly toys
Forceful feeding from when we're little girls and boys
Infinite channels of scheming advertising ploys
Bright sounds fade to grey as they excrete their noise
The writings now on EVERY wall

Sick of being Sick

Well I'm sick of being sick
sick of being sick
sick of being sick on holidays
Want to be free, want to be free now
Hope to see the light and feel the warmth come up my feet
Hope to feel the warmth and see the light come through the trees
