Winning 04:18
Moon like a silver medallion swinging Riding on a snow white stallion singing Of everything I’ve ever done or seen Everything I’ve ever done or seen Room like an old black 45 spinning Ain’t it good to know you’re alive and winning Even if you’re basically alone Even if you find yourself alone Just walking around with a white moustache In a friend of a friend’s house Hardly a hint of the aftermath Don’t ever wipe that smile off your mouth Fell in love with it in summer Feeling like the night was day Fools are staying for the winter Trying to keep the wolves at bay Suger-coated shell with the heartbreak filling Buying what we sell we can all make a killing Money never knows where it’s been Money never knows it’s history Room like a star-spangled galaxy spinning Ain’t it good to know you’re alive and willing Even if you’re basically a clone Even if you find that you’re a clone Just walking around with a white moustache In a friend of a friend’s house Hardly a hint of the aftermath Don’t ever wipe that smile off your mouth Fell in love with it in summer Feeling like the night was day Fools are staying for the winter Trying to keep the wolves at bay

Droids 04:52
Silicone clone Mrs Jones by the swimming pool Tanning in an energy field Watching as she turns and picks a pink pineapple And everything is perfectly unreal Something in my chest, it flutters like a humming bird Hanging in a baby blue sky Expecting the return of all I understood Is like waiting for fake flowers to die When our memories are 1’s and 0’s Still we swim in secret coves And the laboured hearts That they said were ours Are the ones we share With these friends of ours These friends of ours Staring through the dome at things we’ll never know They warned us we would never go far And this yearning to escape they say is just a phase So baby, que sera sera Spending another night alone polishing Mrs Jones And swallowing the baby blue pills Planets still revolve but none of us grow old They’re just giving us more time to kill When our memories are 1’s and 0’s Still we swim in secret coves And the laboured hearts That they said were ours Are the ones we share With these friends of ours These friends of ours

Inside 03:59
When I met you girl I could tell there was a lot Now I know there’s so many things That you wanted to keep I began to recognise a shadow deep And I know that it will always be When I met you girl I only wanted to get Now I know there’s so much love You would never let I’ve seen a light that burns With the blackest flame And I know that I will never be Endorfins won’t quell this pain But the writing on the wall Could make it easier to take Hotel, motel, bed and breakfast on the shore And you said you’d never seen An English summer so raw My girl now I’ve seen everything And I know the way a mood can swing These waves are turning into foam And the crying of seagulls will lead you home Endorfins won’t quell this pain But the writing on the wall Could make it easier to take Hotel, motel, bed and breakfast on the shore And you said you’d never seen An English summer so raw

Minefield 04:02
Let’s shave our heads And hide behind a beard Let’s make a bad decision Let’s get the wrong idea Let’s start a new religion For all the fallen idols Let’s get a terrible tattoo That’s barely recognisable We’ll lay our cards on the table For all the world to see What have we left to fear We are our own worst enemies Now let’s go to church In a stolen car Overdose on love With a swollen heart I know you find it so confusing I feel exactly the same way We plot a course across this minefield of dreams At least that’s how it seems to me Let’s join a movement That aims to have no aims We just cross our fingers And forget our names Let’s start a love affair With someone that we cannot stand Let’s mess with fates temptation Let’s bite the feeding hand We’ll leave the planet below Spinning like a catherine wheel In a rusty space shuttle With a thousand frozen meals Now let’s go to church In a burning vehicle ‘Cos even if it hurts Doesn’t mean it isn’t a miracle I know you find it so confusing I feel exactly the same way We plot a course across this minefield of dreams At least that’s how it seems to me
