Oh heli Oh heli
I'm crouching here with a telescope in hand Looking across our lego land I really think it's about time that she came down She a laughing giggly whirlybird She got to be obscene to be obheard I really think its about time that she came down And I object to all the air male that she pick up the air male that she pick up the air male that she pick up When she's up there twirling round Just like a helicopter - copter She's landing on the town It's about time that I stopped her - stopped her When she's up there twirling round Just like a helicopter - copter Oh heli - Oh heli Now she's away from convent she's gone wild Grown from a nice young lady to a child I really think its about time that she came down She a laughing giggly whirlybird She got to be obscene to be obheard I really think it's about time that she came down |

Clock in my head
Clock on the wall And the two of them Don't agree at all Friday is heaven, Friday is heaven Day in day out Day in day out Wish you were here On the shop floor And together we could Count the dots on the wall Friday is heaven, Friday is heaven Day in day out Day in day out Friday is heaven (x2) Day in day out Day in day out |

When you're near me I have difficulty respirating
When you're near me I have difficulty concentrating When you're near me I have difficulty standing upright When you're near me I have difficulty sleeping at night I used to stand proud like a sphinx In a noble immovable state Then your heart nailed me under a jinx Now I'm feeling like a jellyfish Just a spineless wobbly jellyfish And it's great, great, so great I used to stand high like a pine Just a piece of emotionless wood When you put your body near mine Now I'm feeling like a jellyfish And it's good, good, so good I used to be an iceman Living in iceman town So I'm warning all you cool cool icemen You'd better be prepared to be melted right down down When you're near me I have difficulty |

Happy I'm floating
Around on my feet now You make me go dizzy I'm weak at the knees I feel like I'm walking Round ten feet tall Well you say I'm faking And I say don't worry The way that I bubble There's something in the make I feel like I'm walking Round ten feet tall Right, the chemistry is right This boy has reached his height The feeling just goes on and on... From strength to strength I'm ten feet long... I feel like I'm walking Round ten feet tall |

I have learnt there's a magical spot at the hop
Come with me to the church on the corner the hop There's nuts and crisps and ccc cola on tap A good time had by the boys and girls at the hop Tell me what do you say Tell me what do you say Life begins at the hop, boys and girls Prepare yourself for the boys in the band at the hop The cheap guitars, too young for the bars at the hop We'll jive around, make fools of ourselves then stop Back next week with another ridiculous tie knot Tell me what do you say Tell me what do you say Life begins at the hop, boys and girls |

How bright are the fires of thought
In a chain of command How bright is the medical torch When it's put in our hand My microbes and I Can't wait to lay down and die We realise that we must be spent Like the cells that dissolve when a brainwave is sent How bright are the fires of thought In a chain of command My bloodgroup and me A body of soldiers are we To the wound we quickly flowed And we fought with the weapons in our Chemical code How bright are the fires of thought In a chain of command |

We smelled your soup on the fire cooking
We saw your toys and your pencils looking bright So bright and yet they come from oh so far away We heard your flags and your banners flapping We felt the air from from your hands all clapping time In time, I'm sure your time is not so far away Millions, all moving forward Millions, all babbling crossword Millions, all flow at water Millions, all bright with laughter He make you glowing He bake you golden like a yangtse mud I saw your writing on paper landing Your stamps showed bridges and temples standing still So still, and yet they're standing oh so far away I saw you asking for western thinking I say it's poison that you'll be drinking Stay as East, as far away as dreams will let you be |

Go and speak to your niece (do this do that)
Kiss your aunt on the cheek Don't talk back, now run along It's gone eight, say goodnight That's the way that it's done Boy and girl, girl and boy This is how you do it and Who am I to reason why Wear a shirt, wear a tie You look smart in a suit Use your fork in the left Straighten up shoulders back This is the way that it's done |

She has six swans singing in her sauna
So she can't hear what's going on No she can't hear what's going on In the outside world In the outside world In the outside Bad black and white men Standing in their pigpen Selling guns to simpletons To shoot 'em in the abdomen And she's not interested in that And she's not interested in that She has six swans singing in her sauna Outside - world - outside She has eleven lions laughing at her lakeside So she can't hear what's going on No she can't hear what's going on In the outside world In the outside world In the outside Bad brown and yellow men Splitting on their fellow men Drape her in a newspaper And stab her with a poison pen She's not interested in that She's not interested in that She has eleven lions laughing at her lakeside Outside - world - outside You can keep your animals All the noise and the din Just make a little space for me I'm coming in |

Snipping, snipping, snipping goes the scissor man
Putting end to evil doers games Snipping, snipping, snipping goes the scissor man Maybe you are in his book of names Maybe you are in his book of names So be kind and helpful to your mother Just think twice before you try and steal When he cuts with sticky silver snippers You may find the wounds will never heal All self made bad boys If you refuse to believe he exist You won't be frightened when you find out You're on his list You're on his list You're on his list So be good and never poison people Just think twice before the deed is done When you wake up guilty in the morning You may find important pieces gone |

I ask myself should I put my finger to the left, no
I ask myself should I put my finger to the right, no I say it really doesn't matter where I put my finger Someone else will come along and move it And it's always been the same It's just a complicated game A little girl asked me should she part her hair upon the left, no A little girl asked me should she part her hair upon the right, no I said it doesn't really matter where you part your hair Someone else will come along and move it and it's Always been the same It's just a complicated game A little boy asked me should he put his vote upon the left, no A little boy asked me should he put his vote upon the right, no I say it really doesn't matter where you put your vote Someone else will come along and move it And it's always been the same It's just a complicated game They wanted Tom They wanted Joe To dress 'em up and stick 'em out on show They were arrows in a very bad aim It's just a complicated game God asked me should he ought to put his world on the left, no God asked me should he ought to put his world on the right, no I said God, it really doesn't matter where you put your world Someone will come along and move it And it's always been the same It's just a complicated Game |
