You’re a big mouth You just can’t stop yourself Can you can you Spouting like a fountain/big mouth You’re a big mouth Words come flying out Don’t they don’t they Missiles fissile You’re a big mouth Zipper up that fly Stitch it stitch it Salt that slug put a plug/in it You’re a big mouth Words in jagged font Scratching scratching Brambles and barbed wire/big mouth You’re a big mouth You just can’t stop yourself Can you can you Spouting like a fountain/big mouth

I dreamed that we went shopping for guitars Gold Top Tele Mustang Jaguars All the misty boys were there / Northern Lights were in their hair Come the day we thought we would be stars Your frowning mansion sits up on the hill Compensate with drugs and booze and pills Yellow eyed with Seven Stones / a crowded room and you’re alone Close my eyes and I can hear you still Oh, where do friends go? Vaporised and out of sight Disintegrate in shards of light Oh, where do friends go? Traveller lies like Jesus on a bed Chronicler of war inside his head Barricades are broken down/ Another place another town A flash that turns from blind to white to red See you in a phone box lost in thought Time we took a sleigh ride to the North Know who you were dialling now/ The future then the present now To contradict the lies that we were taught Oh, where do friends go? Vaporised and out of sight Disintegrate in shards of light Oh, where do friends go? Oh, where do friends go? Atomised and turned to air Poisoned by a Russian bear Oh, where do friends go?

Well... 06:33
Well… What a year, what a year that was Well… What a year, what a year that was The rain came down, sky grew dark and lightning struck us all around And then the sun, warm winds, storm winds blew away the world turned, a brand new day Well … what a year, what a year that was what a year, what a year that was that was that was

Shut the windows, seal all the doors Nail the carpets to the floor Block the chimneys, turn on the lights Draw the curtains, shut out the night Don’t let the darkness in Don’t let the darkness in Blind black ogre, dig a hole Fire iron rattle, bulging wall Sky bursts open like a plumb Need the grace of a thousand suns Don’t let the darkness in Don’t let the darkness in Shut the windows, seal all the doors Nail the carpets to the floor Block the chimneys, turn on the lights Draw the curtains, shut out the night Don’t let the darkness in Don’t let the darkness in

All the little atoms in the air are dancing round Ballerinas in formation float above the ground Now they’re robot insects/Lego cities round the bed Crippled dreams in my head Angels bearing ice cream land and then they disappear Ardizzone, Alice, Brothers Grimm and Edward Lear Telescopic bookshelf/man or beast, alive or dead? Crippled dreams in my head Hutu-chanting locusts big as ravens on the walls Wooden boy was tiny and then suddenly he’s tall Monkey puzzle, poor Rapunzel/The masque was red Kill them all Vincent said

Nation Of Us 05:50
Our border is here/a different frontier Hand us the papers, help fuel the fire Saddled our horses/what’s your desire Nation of us, nation of us Our island is here/a speck on a blue sphere The monkeys are chattering far far away Fighting for nuts in their own special way Nation of us, nation of us Turn those things to silent Kill the little tyrants Our border is here/a different frontier We’ll make a better world here in our heads If that doesn’t work then we’ll just stay in bed Nation of us, nation of us The flag that we fly is a shirt on the line And our anthem is Life On Mars You be the president, I’ll be the pope In the nation of us Nation of us, nation of us

This sun is coming out/This smile is in your eyes Beautiful Tuesday Beautiful Tuesday We live within the now/This day is every day Beautiful Tuesday Beautiful Tuesday I want you I do I want you I do This sun is coming out/This smile is in your eyes Beautiful Tuesday Beautiful Tuesday

Oh, where do friends go? Liquefied and lost to us Synthesised in solar dust Oh, where do friends go?
