DIE IN THE WEST
Don’t tell me that you are not impressed
With the miracle we’ve got right here in the West
All you do is scream about the mess we make
Whenever we are happy you have to assume it’s fake
Yeah we always dream of a bigger slice
And we don’t need any of your backwards advice
Whoever eats the dog eats what the dog has eat
Maybe it’s rabies but maybe baby that’s all you can get
Die in the west and you’re halfway
Die in the west and you’re halfway
Die in the west and you’re halfway
To heaven

RED GREEN & GOLD
Why must I rock against a profit
And so bite the hand that feeds me
I only do this because I hungry
For someone to reach out and touch me
Why must I rock against me brother
And so lock meself in me lonely self
I only do his because I have to
Get me through this living hell
Rock we against the fat man
And so get us out of this mess
Have to do it pretty quick though
And so and so destroy his fortress
Rock we against the hatemonger
It’s easy, easy just to vanish him
With this great power of our loving
He knows, he knows that we will banish him
Red, green and gold
Let this be the color for all
No more black and white game
Together let us overcome all

BURNING DOWN
Can I borrow your lighter
‘Cos my forehead’s getting tighter
And I gotta go burn something down
Right down
How I do it is no mystery,
It’s easy, easy
Spontaneous combustion
Oh you please me, please me
Now I feel the heat begin to rise
And I know that there’s nothing
There’s nothing, there’s nothing
There’s nothing that feels quite the same
It’s no game
Spontaneous combustion
Oh you please me, please me
A burning building is like ecstasy
It please me, please me
Now I feel the heat begin to rise
And I know that there’s nothing
There’s nothing, there’s nothing
There’s nothing that feels quite the same
It’s no game
Cry fire and destruction
It’s easy, easy
Spontaneous combustion
Oh you please me, please me
Now I feel the heat begin to rise
And I know that there’s nothing
There’s nothing, there’s nothing
There’s nothing that feels quite the same
It’s no game
A burning building is like ecstasy
It please me, please me
Now I feel the heat begin to rise
And I know that there’s nothing
There’s nothing, there’s nothing
There’s nothing that feels quite the same
It’s no game

BIG JOHN
Big John’s living in the Big Apple
Raising cows
Keith’s at the clinic
He’s gotta keep clean, oh so clean
Sidney couldn’t cope
He always had too much rope
Now we all know
We all know now
Self-destruction’s not very easy
Self-destruction’s not very easy
HANOI ANNOYS ME
Hanoi annoys me
I’m not keen on Rome
New York burns me
I’d rather be at home
What about Palestine,
And what about Israel
Hanoi annoys me
What about the Catholics,
The Commies and the Jews
What about the fascists
The Muslins and Hindus
What about the Irish,
The Poles and the blacks
What about the Russians
The Aussies and the Japs
Listen to this
Tell it to the army ‘cos I just don’t want to know
Tell it to the navy ‘cos I just don’t want to know
Tell it to the fly boys ‘cos I just don’t want to know
Tell it to the junta ‘cos I just don’t want to know
Tell it to the generals ‘cos I just don’t want to know
Tell it to the army ‘cos I just don’t want to know
Oh no
Tell it to the people ‘cos I just don’t want to know
And tell it to the army ‘cos I just don’t want to know
No, no.
THE INNOCENT
We are innocent, it is not our fault
If we don’t stop moving we won’t ever come to a halt
We are innocent, we are not to blame
If things don’t change they’ll stay the same
We are innocent puppets of the state
If we don’t change it soon it’s going to be too late
Too late to be innocent, often we will find
The things we do with our dirty bodies
Are the things we do with our dirty minds
A different sameness
Is your only defence
Why do you look for
Why do you look for
Why do you look for
A similar difference
Be yourself.

CITINITE
He’s a small man
Inside a tall one
Girl of the street
Bought at twilight
Flat on the windscreen
Faces reflecting
Flat on the windscreen
Faces reflecting
Tongue through her lip gloss
Turns me inside out
Leaves me in no doubt
Turns me inside out
She’s got concrete looks
Windows are closed eyes
See her shimmer
In her dress of a thousand lights
Bought in shop windows
If the price is right
Bought in shop windows
If the price is right
Smile so enticing
Turns me inside out
Leaves me in no doubt
Turns me inside out
Laser lover, video friend
Monotone romance
Hologram
Data readout, digital display
Data readout, digital display
She’s a sheet of glass
But she’s real to me
Oh so real to me
Turns me inside out
Citinite – hologram
Citinite – rear light
Citinite – calculate
Citinite – terminate

Don't Touch Me

DON’T TOUCH ME
Don’t brush me with your limosine
Don’t touch me with your leg
For God’s sake, how much can I take
Before I have to beg
Please don’t touch me, touch me
With your lie
Don’t breathe your dinner in my face
I don’t have to stand for that
If you take a chance on clean romance
You’re gonna find my battery’s flat
And you can’t touch me, touch me
With your lie
Don’t bury me ‘neath neon flowers
Don’t want your lobotomy
If I hang real loose and tell the truth
You really haven’t gotten at me
And you can’t touch me, touch me
With your lie

BIKE BOYS
Bike boys, bike boys they know no fear
Highway gangsters in leather top gear
Two up ton up, Two up ton up
Bike boys, bike boys they don’t give a sod
Police left standing, a road riot squad
Bike boys, bike boys the road is their home
White line space boys with hearts of chrome
Bike boys, bike boys want jukebox bliss
Vinyl suicide and it goes like this
He slide the coin in, it go in real smooth
He start to feel better now, now push button white boy
If you wanna make it move
It go 1, 2, 1, 2, 3, 4
They all say, they all say
She didn’t look like much
But she was someone, someone I could always punch
They all say, they all say
She didn’t look good bruised
But only I and I would buy her food and give her shoes
They all say, they all say
She ought to leave me flat
I lock her in the bathroom
I soon put a stop to all that
Bike boys, bike bike boys

TECHNOFASCIST
Technofascist you must show us the way
An electric stick that knows no sway
Sleep tight, the technocrat loves us
Sleep tight, no bureaucrat shoves us
Sleep tight, tomorrow dogma will be chanted
Sleep tight, all our desires are implanted
Your mother was the past, now she’s obsolete
She landed on her head, you landed on your feet
You’ve got us all covered, there’s no room for error
Your final programme is the ultimate terror
