Suckerpunch,
When it came to the crunch
He took to suckerpunch drunk
In the normal day in the normal life
Of Norman and his very normal wife
Who walks then takes the bus and takes the train
Then does it all back to front and in reverse again
Suckerpunch
When it came to the crunch
Suckerpunch
Try passing on lunch
He’s been there for almost 40 years
He bought the suit in a sale that he always wears
When he arrives at his own office to his own desk
Takes off his straightjacket
To try and ease a little distress
Suckerpunch
When it came to the crunch
Suckerpunch
Try passing on lunch
Motherfucking suckerpunch
And he hates to do that every day
While his life just ebbs away
He loosens his tie with his head in the clouds
And heads off to where he always stops
Normal
And Norma greets him when he arrives
And they try to discuss their private lives
About the state of affairs and aboput the weather
And whether there’ll be more time together
And the justified always end the means
About a minor part in major long terms schemes
To relieve the boredom and try to kill a little time
Talk of changing the bedding and think up a little crime
Suckerpunch
When it came to the crunch
Suckerpunch
Try passing on lunch

Hate To

Pollution pumped into the skies
McCartney lives and Lennon died
You know who gets off with a fine
Serious crime squad, serious lies
Architects and their high rise slums
Anyone who pretends to be dumb
Anytime that the phone bill comes
Traffic wardens, the ultimate scum
Big Jessie bands who look like Kiss
Ewan Roberts costly penalty miss
Surely something’s amiss
Cheesy lyrics just like this
Eurochannel and MTV
Advertising on the BBC
SWP and BNP
All sex offenders who still roam free
Don’t you know that you’ve left it far too late?
You surely know that you’ve left it far too late
When you hate to have to hate
That Mooney’s bald and he won’t admit
That HDQ and Snuff both split
All the bands who should have quit
And people who should give a shit about
Swan papers that never sticks
People who play Hendrix licks
Chris Ellis’ famous monitor mix
Dodgy right wing politics
Don’t you know that you’ve left it far too late?
You surely know that you’ve left it far too late
When you hate to have to hate

Envoy for Roget
03:18

He took a position in the high commission
With a residential presidential position
As a doyen of the diplomatic corpse
An attaché to an ambassador
He wanted to be the man on the spot
Until he got involved in a far more serious plot
Edgar Allan Poe in the 20th Century
Got plenty potential as plenipotentiary
He got a position in the delegation
As a Charge de Affairs at internuncio station
A licence to misrepresent
The commissioner of higher permanence
The plot thickened and sealed his fate
The first secretary couldn’t consulate
Forging many messages more or less
Buying lingerie and an ambassadress
Maximum attention that he must give
Working regimental party conservative
He wanted to be the man at the top
Until he got involved in a far more serious plot
Edgar Allan Poe in the 20th Century
Got plenty potential as plenipotentiary

Never in a Million

I never had to worry if what I do is right
Never had to cry myself to sleep at night
I never done heroin, crack or PCP
And I never felt the need to be a slave to be free
Never look, never hear, never speak, never sense and touch
Never near, never here, heverhasbeen, never non such
I know one thing and I don’t know much
Never had to worry, never a care
Never stopped to ponder why life’s not fair
Never been a fighter or nether either a lover
Never takes me to long to recover
Never hear, never speak, never sense and touch
Never near, heverhasbeen, never non such
I know one thing and I don’t know much
So how come that I never met Jesus
And he never taught me to drive
Never stopped to wonder why I’m alive
Never heard Beatles, Beethoven or Brahms
Never heard none of those 69 Psalms
Never ever ever ever ever make me vote Tory
Or perhaps that’s a completely different story
Never hear, never speak, never sense and touch
Never near, heverhasbeen, never non such
I know one thing and I don’t know much

Deliverence

What would you want
That we should be
What did we say
What did we see
Where did you think
That we’d get free
What would it be
What would we be
Just who am I
If I try to see
With signals that we’re
Not allowed to give
From the time we’re small
Small we know
You can’t allow us
All too grow
Explain
You decide
Too big a place
For you to hide
Inside outside
And side by side
There’s nothing
Allowed outside
Check the signs
And keep us there
Lead us to be
Unaware
Patronise and hypnotise
Take the time
To check the lies
Explain
You decide
Too big a place
For us both to hide
You want us here
And here we’ll stay
Look in the eye
On this winter’s day
Take the easy way express
Deliverance
Take us through to happiness
Deliverance
Let them have no more or less
Deliverance
Deliverance
Take me there

A Vision of Terror

Scorpio rising across the skies in the west
Changing from red to blue to green
Take the lithium test
Take it to the borders, always on the brink
Supercharged chopping on
Another powerchord binge
Inward out of bounds
Suburb of the sounds
Underdogging towns
Suburb of the sounds
Where they go powerpacking packaging
At the market stall ball
Ripping out the seating
At Conventional Hall
Inward out of bounds
Suburb of the sounds
Underdogging towns
Step on step on
No more interest in the radical
Manipulating potential
Giving way to the man
Misleading the press
Superfuzz bigmuff mess
It breeds and it breeds and it multiplies
Dripping O Zone through the skies
No more interest in the ride
No one left to drive
It breeds and it breeds and it multiplies
Dripping O Zone through the skies
Surprise Surprise
Drinking diesel fluid
Fuelled on hash
Advancing mass dancing
And revenue cash
Regulated riff-raffage
An industry parade
Crank up the heat
And get on your feet
‘Cos it’s white hot in the shade
Inward out of bounds
Suburb of the sounds
Underdogging towns
Suburb of the sounds
