Playground 03:55
She turns and all I see is smoke from a fire. Her aims they are disjointed and underground But follow the shape of her face cast down To the gum mashed into the ground. The practice of holding a big red balloon Tempting it with needles would terrify A tap on the shoulder of a younger or older Would strain all nerves gently arranged. There are cracks in the pavement which threaten my wheels I’ve got to hold on tight to keep from knocking down The high-heeled shortie who’s clenching her fists in pain And trying not to fall down the drain. There’s disco in the polo that’s pounding the street Alarm sends me spinning my head around To look at the faces of people with open smiles Exhaling smoke to the sky. Don’t go out to the places where they tell you to play x2 If you wanna’ feel like a summer’s day then watch out for the rain The lights from casinos send beams through the sky Sometimes she thinks that someone is after her She jumps onto the tram which follows the rusted rails And wonders where the tracks lead her to. The smells they all mingle and seem to collide She turns from the mirror which scans her eye For fortune or beauty, fortune or vanity or something else that she tries to hide. Don’t go out to the places where they tell you to play x2 If you wanna’ feel like a summer’s day then watch out for the rain

Sky Blue 03:22
The air is heavy and has been this way for days. It casts a shadow from a height to conjure up and early grave But now is not the time. Now is not the time to look at patterns I can’t change Because I’m building towers once again, once again Because I’m building towers once again. There’s a lot of shit we have to face up to now and then. My footsteps lead me on, I find my way into big black boots. Of course I love the sky blue. I look back and now I can look into the future. I look back and now I can look into the future.

The Maid 04:12
When I wake up in the morn’ The smell of coffee’s all I’ve got When I get myself to work No one’s there to say farewell Hmmm you fell through When I come home late at night Someone’s turned out all the lights When I put myself to bed No one’s there to tuck me in Hmmm you fell through When I wake at 3 or 4 There’s no one there to keep me calm There’s no there to keep me sane And tell me it’s all in my head Hmmm you fell through Aaaarrrrrgggggggggggggggg!!!

If I had a nickel For every time that I fucked up I'd buy you a sailboat Lord knows that I'd have enough And if the tide carries us away Would the wind blow us back in? Let's not be strangers tonight And let the oceans win Got holes in my pockets The coins fall right through. Mend the holes in the sails That separate me from you. And if the tide carries us away Would the wind blow us back in? Let's not be strangers tonight And let the oceans win ‘Have you ever wondered’ Is a bad question to ask. It's like cursing the wind Or burning down the mast. And if the tide carries us away Would the wind blow us back in? Let's not be strangers tonight And let the oceans win.

I almost felt that I lost my mind When he chose the other side To the place where nothing is safe From the chef who’s just biding his time. Now I feel my IQ rise I can’t get enough of science. He always put education first And I can see the value of this. But when I opened the box That he left behind. Sitting at home, I’m never alone I’m not a one man acting show Supporting roles are hard to find but I believe I’ve found my own. My days are never long enough My nights are far too short Socialising is a thing of the past I can gladly live without. But when I opened the box That he left behind I didn’t feel so alone With the world of wealth So long, farewell. .

Preoccupied 02:59
Got a conscience, got my own beliefs Put it to the test or take it as it is I work hard on my own way. I turn off lights when there’s no one in the room Use as little as there’s any need to do Wear more layers when I’m cold. There’s talk on the street of taking back what’s been given away but I’m occupied. It’s cold outside, I’m glad to be here safe and warm with my favourite TV show I think about most everything I do Got some sense and a decent attitude Watch the steps where I walk. I see a dog as the same as me or you See my diet as a self-made set of rules See no need for meat. There’s talk on the street of taking back what’s been given away but I’m occupied. It’s cold outside, I’m glad to be here safe and warm with my favourite TV show.

Driver 05:22
I get a kick of always pushing schedules To their limits as close as they can go. The other day I almost lost my senses. The other day I almost lost my nerve. Two wheels good, four wheels bad You’re the greatest set of wheels I’ve ever had. You carry me round. You take my feet off the ground. I get a kick of always pushing schedules To their limits as close as they can go. The other day I almost lost my senses. The other day I almost lost my nerve. You tried to knock me down, you driver! You tried to knock me down, you driver! Were you too busy on your telephone? Were you too busy with your lady friend. You tried to knock me down, you driver! Did you not see the black and white stripes? Driver! Did you not see the traffic lights? Driver! Were you too busy on your telephone? Were you too busy with your lady friend. You tried to knock me down, you driver! No four wheels etc.
