Rocketing 03:39
Stars like cars Follow me home In the universe Supa silver curse Rocketing down Hitting on everyone that's just Hanging around We will be melting in the sun We are hypnotised By luminous skies Penetrate my hands No-one understands Rocketing down Hitting on everyone that's just Hanging around We will be melting in the sun There are things i've seen That turn my eyes lime green I want to lie all night in your arms tonight Rocketing down Hitting on everyone that's just Hanging around We will be melting in the sun

Delight 04:31
On my own holiday keeping you far away I never know where I am Honey fingers Strawberry jam I've got many things to do To keep my occupied until two I'm living on treacle Sticky sugar charged stew Got my sweet toffee delight Lick my fingers It's alright And with cat feet You're delicate and on the fence My vacation to the edge Doesn't make much sense n my mind's holiday I know all the words to say But I never know who I am Exactly two flights round the bend I've got many things to do To keep my occupied until two I'm living on treacle Sticky sugar charged stew Got my sweet toffee delight When It's over You can scrape me off the wall Supa nova Go through the back door down the hall And with cat feet Go creeping on the roof tonight Keeping distant You'll escape on the next flight On my own holiday On my own holiday I never know where I am Honey fingers strawberry jam I'm living on treacle Sticky sugar charged stew Got my sweet toffee delight Lick my fingers It's alright

Fall 04:17
You slip by wonder why Shaking and fall To be apart and never stop To see me at all Fall Fall You take me down your overground Lost in my lost gravity And when I've found my place to drown Lie down in sweet harmony I have flown far from home There's not anymore And If I fall will I take it all Standing up tall Or crawl Crawl You take me down your overground Lost in my lost gravity And when I've found my place to drown Lie down in sweet harmony Oh fall Oh fall Oh fall You could try wave goodbye With a small claw And in my face still hold your grace Don't look at the floor Whore Whore You take me down your overground Lost in my lost gravity And when I've found my place to drown Lie down in sweet harmony I Fall Fall

Squirm 03:57
Spin me round Push me over You pick me up Squash my finger I can see you through those glasses They look pathetic Take them off please Squirm You make me squirm (you make me squirm) I get shivers when I watch you mince (a-ha) How could someone make me feel so sick Squirm You make me squirm (you make my squirm) I fall over when I'm in the street (What'chu talkin' 'bout, Willis?) Always someone standing on my feet You're one of those who pretends to laugh Just so It looks like you're having fun Watch me put you back in your box I'll squash you down so you fit Squirm You make me squirm (you make me squirm) I get shivers when I watch you mince (a-ha) How could someone make me feel so sick Squirm You make me squirm (you make my squirm) I fall over when I'm in the street (What'chu talkin' 'bout, Willis?) Always someone standing on my feet What'chu talkin' 'bout, Willis? Squirm You make me squirm (you make me squirm) I get shivers when I watch you mince (a-ha) How could someone make me feel so sick Squirm You make me squirm (you make my squirm) I fall over when I'm in the street (What'chu talkin' 'bout, Willis?) Always someone standing on my feet

Submarine 04:23
How you could never remember That shining day in December Lightning sliced through the horizon Submarine collide on the big screen Siren in tidal wave big dream Time tunnel got me in strife it seems Can you remember? Can you remember? Can you remember? Watch the feathers fly I'm in a dream boat It's all underwater I'm in a dream boat It's all under water I'm in a dream boat It's all underwater Take my boat and turn It right over On It's belly Roll it like dough and Let the comet dust Sprinkle in your eyes Luna landscape up on the big screen Dunaway with Faye in a big scream Drop a rocket down on the building Can you remember? Can you remember? Can you remember? Watch the feathers fly I'm in a dream boat It's all underwater I'm in a dream boat It's all under water I'm in a dream boat It's all underwater And you know Without that scary thing I'd be mess I'd be just paper mache In a B-Grade love nest Submarine Submarine Submarine Submarine Submarine Submarine Can you remember?

Mirage 03:51
Ah ah You're lost Here today Away Mirage Sand your eyes are Metal grey Hey Ah ah Two moons To follow I say You are going The wrong way Sleep insane Hey Ah ah You saw Giant waves Of sand Melt burning mountains It's so real/surreal Playing handstand Ah ah You're lost Here today Away Mirage Sand your eyes are Metal grey Hey Ah ah
