Extremities, Dirt and Various Repressed Emotions

Money is not our God, ready? Nine tenths of the law that is sick Is possession Life expressed in matter is a blasphemy Success defined by acquisition stinks! So busy trying to make a living I forget about living Yes, I do So busy trying to make a living I forget about life Come on, let's live! The best things I found in life were my birthright The green fields mean more to me than a brand new car Will you swap your hi-fi for a clear blue sky? Will you cash in all your shares for God's clean air? Is your answer yes or no to these painful truths? Hmm? Is your answer yes or no to these painful truths? Do you grovel to your master? Do you beg like a dog? First things first, repeat to yourself: Argh, money! Money is not our God! Push it in, do it like this Mine! Mine! Mine! Mine! Mine! The best things in life are free Mine! I own the beach and the blazing sunset Mine! I own the waves and the fresh air Mine! I drink the milk of the stars in this beautiful moment Say to yourself: All these things are mine! Repeat after me! Money (money, money) Money's not our God! Money (money, money) Money's not our God! Money (money, money) Money's not our God! Money (money, money) Money's not our God! Money (money, money) Money's not our God! Money (money, money) Money's not our God! Money (money, money) Money's not our God! Money (money, money) Money's not our God! Do you grovel to your master? Do you beg like a dog? First things first, repeat to yourself: Ahh, money!

When was the last time you had a tender, juicy steak? Right now you can buy 300 pounds of USDA choice beef size for $1.35 per pound for 26 weeks at only $15.57 per week At no extra charge, you receive a 60 pound free bonus Ten pounds of pork chops Ten pounds of lean bacon Ten pounds of pork steaks Ten pounds of ham Also, 20 pounds of frying chickens A total of 360 pounds for only $15.57 per week for 26 weeks Ten percent of the land Is the hand that pulls the strings Be the privileged few to have to own to hold Power over people, yes, yes Power over people To be the privileged few to have to own to hold Money, property, assets before lives Green gestures of a dying planet An endless debate only too late An appetite for gluttony The only way is up, the only way is up But when you are up you have to try and stay there So you stamp and cheat on people Stamp and cheat on people Champagne breakfasts, rewards for the killings And a fat waist bulging Indulging, in what you call good living But most of all there is too much fat on your heart - pig A lifestyle of cholesterol Cross collateralized cholesterol Saving what's left from profit margin For what? I'll tell you what for For some irrelevant conscience easing charity - Why? Just to justify! Just to justify! Look at this utopia A society based on solid foundations Educate our children - educate them well To feather the nest and fuck the rest Yes! Yes! Feather the nest and fuck the rest! The waste expands Your waist expands While others stand at the back of the queue I mean you Still the same old security For your creature comforts Exchanging the hours of your life For the cash you've already spent Eating rubbish so you can pay the rent Table wine once a week if you're lucky In comparison Privatise the people's lives Be part of the company or fade! Appliance of science to privatise their lives Water is our business Electricity is our business Gas is our business Lives are our business Business is our business Your money - my time Your stinking industrial bathwater - my wine Imbalance induces hate How will you bridge the gap Between the endless buffet And the empty plate I have? I feel hate, I feel hate I feel hate (hate), I feel hate Don't be afraid to show your hate, hate! You just treat me like a commodity You didn't know I couldn't even afford to feed my family I just want to kill I just want to take a gun And put it to your head And pull the trigger

You are an inspiration to me You are my inspiration of how not to be You are an inspiration to achieve a better way of life The crowd was one, oblivion ran deep A consciousness of cannon-fodder walking in its sleep Vacant expressions and don't look ahead Everybody dance with the beautiful dead I said! All queue up and grovel for a hit Someone pulls the reins then you chew at the bit Encouraged by commercials to spend beyond my means I laughed as it all fell apart at the seams Hey! Take a look at tomorrow But will I inherit the good green earth? Such a lovely world All mod-cons there was dust on the drums My electronic beat-box got the job done Everybody emulate the pulse of the soul And change your clothes to make you feel whole Effort and sweat was a thing of the past, they said! Welcome to the world of the beautiful dead But will I inherit the good green earth? Such a lovely world

Extremities confusing me Affect me night and day Fascinated, devastated Critical decade Vanishing greenery Changing scenery Yet somehow I accept Extremities confusing me Yet somehow I accept White heat, I watch a meltdown Cut the wood against the grain Pleasure - pain, one word Extremities I'm frightened I'm excited And I cannot differentiate between the two Can you? White heat, I watch a meltdown Cut the wood against the grain Pleasure - pain, one word Extremities Each and every one of us is watching for the signs The days go by, we count the moments The moments of our lives All the time, all the time The earthquakes came and the buildings all fell down And the waves I saw, I saw the people slowly drown Yes the sun grew hot and the children dehydrate I saw the soldiers burn I saw their skin just blister and break Each and everyone of us is counting out the Moments of our lives all the time

I looked across the North Sea And the sea looked so dead I wondered what this place would look like In the next twenty years But where I'm living All the shop shelves are full Goods to help me shut out Scenes of this dying world And every time I tried to hide The churning of my guts inside Everybody failed to heed the warning Mother, mother I just stand by They push the needle deep inside Pump poison in your veins Intravenous Holidays were different All the things that I learnt All the boys were sunning While the skin cancer burnt Just for one split second I saw the great work of man As he turned the forests Into deserts of sand Every time I tried to hide The churning of my guts inside Everybody failed to heed the warning Mother, mother I just stand by They push the needle deep inside Pump poison in your veins Intravenous We watch the world change before our very eyes Every time I tried to hide The churning of my guts inside Everybody failed to heed the warning Mother, mother I just stand by They push the needle deep inside Pump poison in your veins Intravenous Every time I tried to hide The churning of my guts inside Everybody failed to heed the warning

By day we're dormant Because it's too hot outside now Nocturnal notions As we leave our cocoons Antennae tuned to Inhuman vibrations Shaping the cities Of the world that's to come I listen to the sound The endless construction Inside the termite mound I walked past the nursery All the children have gone now The rules we've taught them Are what they've become Move past the people They make me feel so indifferent Serving their purpose It's their purpose to serve A thousand lights From this honeycombed labyrinth These winding tunnels Lead to my place of desire Bars and bazaars Of self-gratification Live to consume Live for momentary pleasures I listen to the sound The endless construction Inside the termite mound

Solitude Solitude We come into this world alone And to this place we return again Far away in a quiet place Try to think of an open space I watch my life flash before me Remembered friends that I love so dearly And while a veil obscures my vision I surrender to the will of God I found peace, yes I found peace at last All I see has been meant to be Down, down in the forest clearing With a breeze blowing through the branches And I breathe in and out so very slowly It sends a shiver right down my spine In the quiet I can come to terms with All I've done and who I am I turn and face the sun Then all my troubles fall behind me like a shadow In solitude In solitude In solitude In solitude

Scrape my nails across a brick Scrape my nails across a brick I'll describe my mornings in the early hours And my pulses are racing, my heart beats out loud I am north of the border, yes I'm cold and I sweat And I worry, I worry what tomorrow will bring Scrape my nails across a brick Scrape my nails across a brick I walk north of the border and step over the line To a place of frustration, going out of my mind I've tried wearing bright colours to brighten my life But the truth cuts through fashion, yes it cuts like a knife Just look at our faces, yes they say more than words We're so lost in our problems We're so lost in our world Yesterday - nothing But today is o.k I've enough to survive on Tomorrow's another day Scrape my nails across a brick Scrape my nails across a brick Scrape my nails across a brick Scrape my nails

Time means nothing Time means nothing to me anymore Time means nothing Time means nothing to me anymore Twenty years ago Twenty years ago and yesterday Twenty years ago Twenty years ago and yesterday All the same to me, they're all the same to me Yes, all the same All the same to me Twenty years ago and yesterday I shut my eyes a second ago And I was only eight years old Lying on my back in the sun Listening to the sounds of children playing And I remember all my thoughts Thinking how beautiful life was So wonderful to be young So beautiful to be young Remembering how, how to be young One by one, all my friends died And my body decayed One by one, all my friends died And my body decayed Time means nothing Time means nothing to me anymore I close my eyes, I was learning A lesson somewhere else I shut my eyes, I was learning A lesson somewhere else Time means nothing Time means nothing to me anymore Slipstream Slipstream Slipstream Slipstream Time means nothing Time means nothing to me anymore Time means nothing Time means nothing to me anymore Time means nothing Time means nothing to me anymore Time means nothing Time means nothing to me anymore Time means nothing Time means nothing to me anymore Time means nothing Time means nothing to me anymore

Understanding the meaning of struggle Giving your whole life to a single passion Which others may, may or may not Consider obsolete Like a rare flower Seen by a few before it withers and dies Before it withers and dies Seeing it all All the way through to the very end Regardless A full stop followed by an exclamation mark Written in your own flesh and blood Getting knocked down every time Getting knocked down every moment You get up - until you love getting up I know what you've been going through I've been there too God knows I've been pushing hard Pushing so damn hard - I've forgotten what the hell I'm even - Pushing for Recognize it when it happens to you Learn to recognize it and know what to do Stop clinging on, let go, own nothing Do it out of love Do it out of love Words cannot substitute Losing everything Losing your home Losing your money Your dignity Losing your mind - your beliefs, ideals Then and only then When everything is gone You no longer care Your soul standing naked and bare Stripped down to the truth Then you'll find everything On heaven and earth On heaven and earth On heaven and earth The struggle is long The struggle is hard The struggle is beautiful The struggle is long The struggle is hard The struggle is beautiful The struggle is long The struggle is hard The struggle is beautiful The struggle is long The struggle is hard The struggle is beautiful The struggle is long The struggle is hard The struggle is beautiful
