Just Keep me moving
O'er grassy dale, and lowland scene
Come see, come hear, the English Scheme.
The lower-class, want brass, bad chests, scrounge fags.
The clever ones tend to emigrate
Like your psychotic big brother, who left home
For jobs in Holland, Munich, Rome
He's thick but he struck it rich, switch
The commune crap, camp bop, middle-class, flip-flop
Guess that's why they end up in bands
He's the green piece in us all
He's the creep-creep in us all
Condescends to black men
Very nice to them
They talk of Chile while driving through Haslingdon
You got sixty hour week

Recreation Myth
Hands up give in to modernism.
The re-enactment's closing in.
But we're past that now.
Dip your head in the water.
Hands up and over.
Heads down in shame.
Give in, give in.
Is this the cup that's worth more than me.
Complicity.
Ask what happened to believers.
They will never believe again.
Counted the times that it wasn't true.
They'll never wash your feet again.
When I was born no one counted the fingers and toes.
O'no. O'nothing.
