Well you know I've been dloating here for hours Just like this Suspended gently swaying like a pendulum Look, no strings attached There's the odd insect It don't worry traffic control But I just don't seem to wake up I've been all the way to Budapest Seen riots, yes riots in Tibet Seen the burning monks Crackling in pain Saw bombs in Gibraltar Fear in Christ's eyes Frozen in concrete As all of Europe fries Wake up a mother's son Lynched in a graveyard Bullets in MacDonald's Mottos born to kill Tattoed on children's skin And when I saw the hole in the sky At the north pole I really wanted to wake up I heard the last breath of the dolphin Behind the doors on the fourth floor Of a Manchester morgue Little fingers on the durex machine God bless them, yes God bless them And God bless Milton Keynes Now I've been floating here For thirty years >From the mid west to the North Sea Seen nothing but soot covered misery Witnessed crossbreeding giving birth to Bad dreams now I want to wake up Now I'm floating here on the outer atmosphere And I've brushed aside the waste paper There's a sign, It says "Self destruct in 99" Evacuate.
