"Path of Least Resistance" (live on BBC TV, 1979)
|
|
|
Faced with the choice What would you say? The path of least resistance It seems the only way But can we look a little further? The safe method, the only way Feel wanted, feel numb |
So sad, the early grave When all the fun's for free Start digging the early grave And keep it warm for me Faced with the choice But let's look a little further The safe method, the only way Feel wanted, feel numb |
"Empire State Human" (live on British TV show, Mainstream, October 1979) |
|
Since I was very young, I've realized Because of this longing in my heart Tall, tall, tall, I want to be tall, tall, tall Tall, tall, tall, I want to be tall, tall, tall With concentration Empire State Human Tall, tall, tall, I want to be tall, tall, tall |
Tall, tall, tall, I want to be tall, tall, tall Brick by brick, stone by stone Tall, tall, tall, I want to be tall, tall, tall Tall, tall, tall, I want to be tall, tall, tall Fetch more water, fetch more sand |
"Circus of Death" (live on BBC TV, 1978) |
|
Nine o'clock flight from Hawaii The Trident is just touching down We're waiting here on the tarmac McGarrett is wearing a frown He's here to help with a problem A blood-spattered curse on our land Please cast your eye over this map, sir This business is quite out of hand The circus of death is approaching The narcotic that forges their union is a substance known only to one |
Spare me and my family I've done you no wrong Go away, please let us be I've known you for too long Think we'll ever find any real intelligent life out there? |
"Blind Youth" (from Reproduction, 1979) |
|
No future they say Blind youth take hope, you're no Joe soap We've had it easy Blind youth take hope, you're no Joe soap Dehumanization Dehumanization |
No future they say Blind youth take hope, you're no Joe soap Blind youth take hope, you're no Joe soap Blind youth take hope, you're no Joe soap We've had it easy Blind youth take hope, you're no Joe soap Blind youth take hope, you're no Joe soap Blind youth take hope, you're no Joe soap |
"Almost Medieval" (from Reproduction, 1979) |
|
There's something in your soul that makes me feel so old Jump off the tarmac there's no stagecoach speed limit Soft lenses, grow to glasses |
Your program, newspaper There's something in your soul that makes me feel so old Jump off the tarmac there's no stagecoach speed limit |
"Being Boiled" (from Reproduction, 1979) |
|
Listen to the voice of Buddha Saying, stop your sericulture Little people like your offspring Boiled alive for some gods stocking Buddha's watching, Buddha's waiting Just because the kid's an orphan |
Once more with the voice of Buddha He'll say carry on your slaughter Who cares for the little children You may slice with no conviction Blind revenge on a blameless victim |
"Life Kills" (from Travelogue, 1980) |
|
When you fall into your seat You know you feel you might be dying As the breath rasps in and out Of your burning throat You can't control your lungs because you're so tired Well thank god that there is someone there to drive you Your life is like a schedule Your life is like a schedule |
For a while it seems exhaustion has subsided The day is over and the moon is high But your period of work is predecided Funny how the hours of freedom seem to fly Well thank god that there is someone there to drive you Your life is like a schedule Your life is like a schedule Repeat |
"Do or Die " (live on Central Television's "Over the Top," 2 January 1982) |
|
Those cocky little fires you started in the night The Independent claims that just meant "Hold me tight" The bruises on your body that you swore were from a fight I'll pass at your insistence Alsatians fall unconscious at the shadow of your call Run all day, run all night |
I'd like to leave so would you kindly look the other way You tell me to be honest but I've nothing left to say Just like your feet my goddess, my brain has turned to clay An end to all resistance Run all day, run all night Run all day, run all night Run all day, run all night |
