Richard III
02:52

|
why did it take so long
to dig me up and rob me blind of my fame?
i was never gonna be your king too long
i was living dead ahead
to be fair forever
my kingdom for a horse
who messes with a king
who left a string of family dead, rotting corpses?
are you not surprised to see me back alive?
supergrass'' man of war
in the bones, sans flesh
my kingdom for a horse
where did you think i went?
across the channel to france or germany?
i've been stuck here since before world war got foxed
oliver cromwell
none of them compared to me, richard III
old crouchback
my kingdom for a horse

You Decide
02:31
|

|
there's far too much riding on this
far too much relying on this
whose idea was it to ask me 'cause
i'm paralysed just thinking about it
i don't know
so you decide
so you decide what's right
'cause if i can't decide on nothing
nothing's what we'll be
so you decide what's right
and you decide who's wrong
and you decide what's right
and you decide what's wrong
the paradox of modern life
is too much choice, none of it matters
whose idea was it to ask me 'cause
i'm paralysed just thinking about it
i don't know
so you decide
so you decide what's right
'cause if i can't decide on nothing
nothing's what we'll be

Tokyo Regret
03:10
|
|||
|
would you believe i've never seen tokyo?
or any capital of the world
of course i have been to wellington
but wellington is hardly tokyo
this is my
one regret
i haven't got many regrets
yet
can you believe i haven't been over
seas, unless you count islands
and i don't, so why should you
care a bit about my plans?
this is my
one regret
i haven't got many regrets
yet
do you think i should start with this urge to go
across the sea

Ephemeral

serendipity, ideas
i don't know what to do or what to say
curiosity, i fear
has been my perennial ephemeral
electricity in here
i don't know just what to do or what to say
instability endears
every one one to the critical parasitical
commonality, we fear
in thrall to the criminal, hypocritical
electricity in here
i don't know just what to do or what to say
negativity and fear
they rule, incompatible
ephemeral
you recommend instead
i get out and make some friends
to the bitter ends
an ephemeral, a mutineer
i can't stand the smaller talk
around the clock

Hardly Angels
02:33
|

we should not be afraid of foreigners
locals i know are just as bad as us
whenever i've been mugged out on the street
i know what they're not
they're from the north island
they're from the south island
they're from the north island
they're from stewart island
in case it wasn't clear from what i said before
new zealanders are hardly angels eh
the land of the 'long white cloud'
at least we're not australians
we're not as bad as them
we're not as bad as them
there are no rules when you get on the road
the only law's stay out of my way
it doesn't matter what passport you're on
or if you can drive
we've all got a death wish
we've all got a death wish
they're from the north island
they're from the south island
they're from the north island
they're from stewart island

You're Not Alone
03:13

so you thought you might be home alone tonight
i've got news for you it's not so black and white
and did you notice that i have time for you?
or does it mean nothing to be one of two?
aaah aaah aaah aaah
you're not alone

Phantom Time
02:30
|
|||
|
If you've got a story to tell
of history you might as well
reconsider times and dates
they're nothing but lies
correlations of our past
nothing good can ever last
why on earth are we so vain?
they're nothing but lies
i recognise you in me
i live inside you
i never noticed you there……
there's never been a master plan
no tricks for the age of man
what happened to the sceptical patterns of our minds?
i recognise you in me
i live inside you
i never noticed you there
a phantom time of the year……
