Moloko - "Fun for me"

I dreamt that I was dreaming, I was wired to a clock,
Tickled by the minute hand tick tock tick tock,
I dream Im on a train and it is making music,
I dont remember getting on clickity click clickity click,
I dreamt that I was very tall, I was bigger than king kong,
I heard the bells the bells aringing ading dong ding dong,
I dreamt that I was sitting in the devils company,
He gave a solemn promise fe fi fi fun for me,
I dreamt that I was chasing the monster out of me,
I caught him in the corner ha ha hee hee hee,
I dream Im in a tunnel between here and now,
Scooby do-be where would you be bow wow wow wow,
I dream Im at a crossroads no place left to go,
I look in each direction eenie meanie miny mo,
I dream I am an ostrich head deep in the sand,
There is a rhythm thats a playing fantastic elastic band,
I dreamt that the bogeyman went down on mr spock
Sugar was a flowing sock it to em sock
I dreamt I saw a moo cow jump across the moon
Just a flight of fantasy zoom zoom zoom
I dreamt I met a spaceman he took me to his ship,
You know he cut my hair off snip snip snip
I dreamt that I was sleeping asleep for heavens sake
The dream that I was dreaming caused me to awake
I dreamt that I was way up I was standing on the top
With the feeling I was falling bop beep bop
I dreamt that I was jumping in a circus through a hoop,
Someone saw the lights off shoo-be-doop
I dreamt that I was fast I was never shutting up,
I was going in a hurry I was giddy-up giddy-up
I dream Im in the park Im standing in the nudey,
I was getting what I wanted tootie fruity tootie fruity,
I dreamt that I was dreaming, I was wired to a clock,
Tickled by the minute hand tick tock tick tock,
I dream Im on a train and it is making music,
I dont remember getting on clickity click clickity click,
I dreamt that I was very tall, I was bigger than king kong,
I heard the bells the bells aringing ading dong ding dong,
I dream I am an astrich head deep in the sand,
There is a rhythm thats a playing fantastic elastic band,
Fe fi fi fun for me.

Moloko - "Day for night"

Into the night I go day for night ...
I know what you talk about in your sleep wrap yourself around me
Not just a passer by Im gonna stay awhile,
I like your peep show magnetized I saw you in the window,
Ive been watching you dont know what else to do,
Trust me Im sensitive intensitive Ill never let you go,
No need to be afraid release yourself to me I got that heart-ache,
Hubble bubble you know my trouble I saw you on your own no need to be alone,
Let me levitate relax resonate turn off the lights,
Day for night ....
I saw your eyes on fire the desire wont release you,
I go where you go to I have to follow you,
So put your honey where your mouth is look behind you,
Relax and let me hypnotize Id like to touch mmmm,
Standing in the shadows Ive had my fill of it,
Too close to the light just for the thrill of it,
Hubble buble you know my trouble turn out the lights,
Day for night...

Moloko - "I can't help myself"

I cant help myself ...
I am the doughnut that you hold up
And I never sold up in a pie,
The hoot boots so fly,
I always try to beat the rest to impress,
I put my tongue in my trouser press,
I got the toots baby you got the fruits,
Fruit got the loot lady you got the boots,
Dont be a mook dont get the spook,
Dont be a cry baby I only said maybe,
Shmoozin I was pressuing when like a catapult,
I did a summersault,
Going down the lazy river,
Three fingers deliver,
I cant help myself...,
The reverb you just heard is resounding in the surrounding area,
Its getting scarier Ive got the amp damp mangled,
Got my tingle in tangle let me see what I can wangle,
In the bermuda triangle,
Gravity will be the death of me,
Terminal velocity follow the follow the vaper,
One hundred purcent proof caper,
Burst the barricades but dont drink the lemonade,
Martinis by beeard man an artizan down at the can can,
And oh yes he can can fat,
Fredies cat in seven lead boots whiskey for the whiskers the shot sure shoots,
She sells sea shells sea shells on the sea shore,
Is it true what mummy said you cant come back no more,
Oh no no no no singing a song about nothing,
Talk through my belly button,
At the inn of seventh happiness more or less,
I found you on the floor saying more more more,
Peel back the skin sonar beats like quaver,
Small bananas selected for flavour,
I cant help myself....

Moloko - "Lotus eaters"

Spikey lady shiny queen dont you tell them what youve seen,
Plastic people silicon never let them in your home,
Dont become a middle man keep your mouth shut if you can,
Dont you tell them what you know they will go anyway the wind blows,
Be my best friend be my baby Ill be there for you maybe,
Dont get on the roller coaster ya burn your fingers on the toasters,
Just a fair weather friend gone when the summer end,
They will look into your eyes tell you pretty perfume lies,
Slinky slimy lotus eaters jeepers creepers get a load of those peepers,
Talking all that mumbo jumbo people pass in solo limbo,
See them slip see them slide but have you seen the nasty side,
With all the smiling and kissing listen to the hiss hiss hissing,
She slip she slide she dont know why she hide,
Dizzy little missy with a twinkle in her eye bye bye,
Finger lickin good kill you if she could dig it when youre down send in the clown,
Dont let them poke dont let them peek their friendly chat is cheap
You look so fine you look so hip youre styling makes me trip,
Take your place if they could these are the people in your neighbourhood,
She slips she slides she dont know why she hide,
Poking peeking sneaking cheating sniffing sliding,
A running and hiding,
Creeping crawling feeling and mauling,
Fickle little tickles brains like pickles,
She slip she slides she dont know why she hide,
Dizzy little missy with a twinkle in her eye bye bye,
Finger lickin good kill you if she could dig it when youre down send in the clown,
She slip she slid she dont know why she hide,
Dizzy little missy with a twinkle in her eye bye bye,
Finger lickin good kill you if she could dig it when youre down send in the clown.

Moloko - "Dominoid"

I cant control this urge so I risk what I wager,
I lost to a chicken shit never was panty sniffer,
Got my eye on a cool hand and I wonder about his dog of a day,
Wanted to be a big shot real hot down with the domino,
You know calling on instict calling the bluff,
Telling a tale ten stories high to the operative,
I figured the numbers underpressure I played by the seat of my pants,
Then fate took a twist quietly wiley faking it waiting for a fluke,
Waiting for a sign by now boggle eyed,
If I believe I will receive leaning on the ever lasting tree,
Hanging in the hands of fate down with the domino,
Im no, down with the domino, Im no casino casanova with the good luck eyes,
Its hard to tell whos friend or foe when you go down like the domino,
One track mind just digging till I find,
The gold at the end of the rainbow just keep on going,
Though twisted up inside her fool heart takes over and jumps on for the ride,
Down with the domino,
I need the roulette to make me forget,
Rotating random eyes roll in tandem,
Lady look illusive but I do what I can better be a day as a lion,
Than a life time as a lamb down with the domino, down, you know.

Moloko - "Party weirdo"

God am I the only sane one around here,
Doesnt anybody else find this queer,
Oh shit oh,
A wizard approaches,
A reward for the weirdo,
Party weirdo ...
Countless times you have fallen weird one,
Im gonna ask the judge for a party crack down,
A weirdo wack down hangin out on streets in cars in bars,
Outside my window in my pool in my bed in my head,
Party weirdo ... Im simply ask the judge ... hello hello ...
Oh but somehow someway somewhere you get back on your partied,
Out feet, hello hello, party weirdo ...
Its just so exotic you got no where left to go, party weirdo,
You will ask yourself who am I what am I where am i,
You will answer I am no-one probably nothing,
I know that Im nowhere you poor crass animal ok Im new around town,
Can anybody tell me what all these party weirdos are all about,
Someone says you must go there and check out the party weirdos,
Now all I see is a lot of young people all mixed up,
Its just not fair countless times you have fallen weird one partied out yet,
You might expect ones weirdness to subside,
But it does not subside it sort of grows and grows and grows man,
You can just go find somewhere else to go cos youre just not welcome here any more.

Moloko - "Ho humm"

Humm, humm humm ...
Flash light in the dark of night,
Laissez faire devil may care quick silver,
The feline breed your ego feed,
Im a tease if you please an infuser,
Oh but you know bout the juju,
I coluded with the lucid a creator,
Come to my place for some good taste,
Rise the amorous to the rapturous alligator,
Hum humm humm ...
If you please,
Call for me by humming this tune,
I only come when theres a full moon,
Ruby red lips painted finger tips,
Make your sweet heart cry and your best friends try,
Facinate like a temptress the caress,
Leaves you languishing exhilarate,
A tornado if you say so,
And I shake like a quake captivate,
Humm humm humm ...
Call for me by humming this tune,
I only come when theres a full moon.

Moloko - "Butterfly 747"

Do not fear me,
I bring no harm,
No one knows where I came from,
I walk on water all day long,
No one knows how far I came,
No one even knows my name,
I sometimes sing as I float,
No one ever hears a note,
I sometimes move from place to place,
No one ever sees my face,
I can't touch I can't weep I can't taste I can't sleep,
I appear I disappear I reappear I'm getting near,
I'm tired of living in my brain,
I feel no joy I feel no pain,
I don't live I just exist,
I need to know the life I missed,
I'm the only one host I'm this town,
I'm the only ghost in the lost and found,
I'm the only one if you look around,
Reappear I'm getting near.

Moloko - "Killa bunnies"

Sniverling little bunny bouncing up and down,
Scummy little creatures,
Run them out of town,
In the tiny tunnels scuffling under ground,
Toxic little bunny can always be found,
Danger evil rodent,
Multiplying every day,
Bunny taking over,
Get on your knees and pray,
Filthy fluffy creatures,
Teeth as sharp as knives,
The longeared ones are coming,
Run run run for your lives,
Killa bunny is a coming,
Killa bunny on his way,
Killa bunny is a coming,
Are you hearing what I say.

Moloko - "Boo"

Do not fear me,
I bring no harm,
No one knows where I came from,
I walk on water all day long,
No one knows how far I came,
No one even knows my name,
I sometimes sing as I float,
No one ever hears a note,
I sometimes move from place to place,
No one ever sees my face,
I cant touch I cant weep I cant taste I cant sleep,
I appear I disappear I reappear Im getting near,
Im tired of living in my brain,
I feel no joy I feel no pain,
I dont live I just exist,
I need to know the life I missed,
Im the only one host Im this town,
Im the only ghost in the lost and found,
Im the only one if you look around,
Reappear Im getting near.

Moloko - "Where is the what if the what is in why?"

What is a God of phoney creation,
Where am I going with no destination,
What if the fish came from the sea,
What if my lover made me feel free,
What if my intake caused revelation,
What if the point was reincarnation,
What if my shoes dont match my jacket,
If its not working why dont you smack it,
What if your mamma said you were fat,
If you are lost find where your at,
What is a number without any time,
You cant get higher with nothing to climb,
Why have a body if you aint got a mind,
What is a searcher with nothing to find,
Why is the traffic refusing to stop,
Why climb the ladder if you cant reach the top,
Where is the what if the what is in why,
Where is the what if the what is in why
Where is the what if the what is in why,
What do you dream of when you sleep at night,
Wee how the blind man fills up with light,
What is a bird with nowhere to fly,
How can you leave and not say goodbye,
What is a hunter with nothing to find,
What is the goodness without the unkind,
When did the outfit fall out of fashion,
When did the lover run out of passion,
My reincarnation time a phoney creation rhyme,
With no destination mine my informations fine,
Why did the voice say dont step on the floor,
Why did the sign say so float through the door,
What is a God of phoney creation,
Where am I going with no destination,
What if the fish came from the sea,
What if my lover made me feel free,
What if my intake caused revelation,
What if the point was reincarnation,
What if my shoes dont match my jacket,
If its not working why dont you smack it,
What if your mamma said you were fat,
If you are lost find where youre at,
Where is the what if the what is in why,
Where is the what if the what is in why,
Where is the what if the what is in why,
How did the loser get to be rich,
What is a saleman with nothing to pitch,
When did the fool het to be king,
Why did you leave when they asked you to sing,
Why loose belief if you got a dream,
What is a train that ran out of steam,
What is a spy with no-one to spy,
On who do you sleep with nothing to lie on,
What if the fruit dont fall from the tree,
What if these questions just wont let you be,
Why waste your time looking for proof,
What if the answer is never the truth.

Moloko - "Who shot the go-go dancer?"

It was a long night and a tall story
I nearly died of fright
Who shot the go go dancer?
Will we ever know?
I don't know

Moloko - "The flipside"

Cant leave you alone
We cant leave you alone no

You cant hide from the flipside
Your foolish pride
Cant sustain the strain
Trouble bubbles inside
You can try but you cannot resist
If we insist
Persistent, every instant, every moment in time
We are on your mind

Cant leave you alone
We cant leave you alone no

We have ways to make you understand
We demand you let us in
Under your skin
You tuned in to the frequency
We cant let you be
We live happily
Beneath
On the underneath
On the inside
The flipside

Cant leave you alone
We cant leave you alone no

In your search for contentment
Tormented, unrelenting
Turbulent intent
And all the money spent
You will listen precisely to each word
As it reoccurs
We insinuate, irritate, we cant dissipate
Deflate your ego
Give up self control

Cant leave you alone
We cant leave you alone no
We cant leave you alone
Cant leave you alone no

When will it end?
Delerium is back again
We will suspend
Numbskulls are back around again
Trouble bubbles inside
You cannot hide from the flipside
We are in your mind
Every instant, every moment in time

Were alive and we will survive
As a part of you
Listen if we want you to
Cant you see?
Just a part of you are we
Surround sound you cant turn it down
A little frequency dependency
You are we, all on your own
We cant leave you alone no

We cant leave you alone
We cant leave you alone no
We cant leave you alone
We just cant leave you alone
(give up self control)

Moloko - "Knee deepen"

Knee deepen
We deepen the game
In deeper
Dont walk away

Just foolish dreamers
We aspire
Do we deserve all that we desire?
If you decide that we cant set your heart alight
Well walk on into the night

We know that theres no need to fear
We are there we are here
We move, we move, we move, we move on
So long
Were long gone

Knee deepen (knee deepen)
We deepen the game (the game)
In deeper (deepen)
Dont walk away (walk away)
Knee deepen (knee deepen)
We deepen the game (the game)
In deeper (in deeper)

We will remember you
No, we wont forget
No, no fear of regret
And though we are the ones who walk into the night (we go on)
We wont vanish out of sight
We get over it, we go beyond
We find a way to get along
We move, we move, we move, we move on (we move we move)
So come on (come on), if you want to come along (come along, come along)

Knee deepen (knee deepen)
We deepen the game (the game)
In deeper (deepen)
Dont walk away (walk away)
Knee deepen (knee deepen)

Dont walk away

(we deepen)
Dont walk away

Moloko - "Blink"

If you hear me, baby, blink!
Do you even have the capability left to think?
There seems to be a missing link
Everybodys had a chance to see how far I can sink

As I try to call you back
As I try to call you back from the brink
If you hear me, baby, blink!

Youre just so uptight
I dont suppose you have the energy to put up a fight
You just might implode before I get a chance at cracking the code
Take a good look around
Milk and honeys getting thin on the ground
If you hear me then make a sound

If you hear me, baby, blink!
As I try to call you back
As I try to call you back from the brink

If you hear me, baby, blink!
As I try to call you back
As I try to call you back from the brink

There will be no recompense when Im screaming in the face of your silence
Still I draw a blank
Cant go down any further than Ive already sank
If youre not there at all
Someone tell me why Im talking to the wall
Do you hear me call?

If you continue to ignore these resonable demands
Ill be drawing up a new plan
The future is in your hands
Isnt it a crying shame your little game of hide and seek
Became so tiresome to me sometime last week?
The future is bleak

If you hear me, baby, blink!
As I try to call you back
As I try to call you back from the brink
If you hear me, baby, blink!
As I try to call you back

The lights are off
I know youre home
I burn your letters begging me to leave you alone
Keep your privacy
Your inner thoughts mean nothing to me
If you are waiting for me to take on my fair share of the blame
Honey your efforts are in vain
If you hear me call my name

If you hear me, baby, blink!
(if you hear me call your name)
As I try to call you back
As I try to call you back from the brink [repeat]

If you hear me, baby, blink!
As I try to call you back
As I try to call you back from the brink

Anybody, is there anybody in there?
Is there anybody, anybody in there?
Anybody, is there anybody in there?
Is there anybody?

Moloko - "Downsized"

Tell me dearest enemy what you make of me
I didnt last, so fast you blast kinetic energy
I cant erase the memory

If I put a foot wrong
You could laugh out loud, like youve been laughing to yourself all along
Such lies, sweet hush of lullabies
In a small town loose talk it kind of gets around

I must reject all that I once believed
Ive been deceived
Behind my back
I am quietly and suredly under attack

Downsized I guess I shouldnt be surprised
Two faced the time has come to be replaced
Betrayal, tiny minds
Something sinisters going on behind

You were my downfall
See me crawl, one and all
If I could only be a fly on the wall
Nothing is clear
So sincere in my ear
You look so pretty when you sneer
Behind the smile, sweet child
You were grinding your teeth all the while
Betrayed, low grade
Always delayed
Did you ever have the slightest intention to stay?

(doo duh dee-dum doo duh doo)

Moloko - "Sorry"

Please accept my humble apology
S should've never happened
O oh my God how could i?
R rotten thing to do
R really didn't mean it
Y why'd I have to go and do a thing like that?
I'm sorry, so sorry,
I'm so sorry darling
Sorry
Well?

Moloko - "Sing it back"

Bring it back,
sing it back,
bring it back,
sing it back to me

When you are ready, I will surrender
Take me and do as you will
Have what you want, your way's always the best way
I have succumbed to this passive sensation
Peacefully falling away
I am the zombie your wish will command me
Laugh as I fall to my knees

Bring it back,
sing it back,
bring it back,
sing it back to me

Can I control this empty delusion?
Lost in the fire below
And you come running your eyes will be open
And when you come back, I'll be as you want me
Only so eager to please
My little song will keep you beside me
Thinking your name as I sing

Bring it back,
sing it back,
bring it back,
sing it back to me

Bring it back,
sing it back,
bring it back,
sing it back to me

Come to my sweet melody (repeat)
No, you can't help it if you feel have been tempted
By fruit hanging ripe on the tree
And I feel useless
Don't care what the truth is
You will be here come the day
Truth do you hear me?
Don't try to come near me
So tired I sleep through the lie
If you desire to lay here beside me
Come to my sweet melody

Sing it back to me (sing it)
Bring it back (sing it)
Sing it back (sing it)
Bring it back
Sing it back to me

(Sing it, sing it, sing it)
(Sing it back to me)

Bring it back
Sing it back
Bring it back
Sing it back to me

Moloko - "Pretty bridges"

(burn... burn... burn...)

So if I blaze a trail
Hammer the final nail
So if I shake you off my tail
How can I fail?

Down, pretty bridges burn, all my bridges burnt
Burnt down pretty bridges burn all my bridges burnt

Nausea the vertical climb
A fatal flaw in the design
I cant be sure that youll open the door to me
The double indemnity

(burn... burn... burn...)

A mouthful of pleasurable sensation
Shaken by sheer anticipation
Glad you asked me, I had to dash, you see
Its been a blast

(burn)

All my bridges burn
All my pretty bridges burn
Each one in their turn
All my pretty bridges burn
Burn, pretty bridges burn
All my bridges burn
Will I ever learn?
Watch all my pretty bridges burn

Hysterical look at this chaos
All that I had and all that I lost
You are feeling sleepy
Very very sleepy

Down, pretty bridges burn, all my bridges burnt
Burnt down pretty bridges burn all my bridges burnt
Burnt down pretty bridges burn all my bridges burnt

As for the bitter taste
Let it vanish into the flames
Dont let it go to waste
All the places and the names
This is the master stroke
Raised to the ground
And it all goes up in smoke
All my bridges burn

All my bridges burn
All my pretty bridges burn
Each one in their turn
All my pretty bridges burn
Burn, pretty bridges burn
All my bridges burn
Will I ever learn?
Watch all my pretty bridges burn

Down, pretty bridges burn, all my bridges burnt
Burnt down pretty bridges burn all my bridges burnt [x3]

(burn...)

All my bridges burn
All my pretty bridges burn
Each one in their turn
All my pretty bridges burn
Burn, pretty bridges burn
All my bridges burn
Will I ever learn?
Watch all my pretty bridges burn

(burn... burn... burn...)

Moloko - "Be like you"

I'm the sidekick
The mimic
Ventriloquistic
(my lips moved) and you missed it
I need to know the mystery
Of your misery
(give me some of that) magic
(I wanna be) I wanna be tragic

I wish I could just xerox
(this is the paradox)
(you're waves) you're waves (in my brain) in my brain
(we could be) we could be one and the same
(deep) deep and meaningful artistic endeavor
(its plain) its plain (disdain) disdain
Makes you look clever

Everybody wants to be like you
Ah, show me what to do
Everybody wants to feel the way you do
Me too

I must fulfill my destiny
(feel the force) feel the force of your fury
Cock sure, you're a genius
Give me some (give me some), reflect your glory
(all knowing) all knowing, (all bleeding) all bleeding
(I can dig it) I can dig it, daddio
Tell me, show me, which way to go
(I really want to know)

Everybody wants to be like you
Ah, show me what to do
Everybody wants to feel the way you do
Me too

Everybody wants to be like you
Ah, show me what to do
Everybody wants to feel the way you do

Me too, take me with you (ah), take me with you (ah)...

Moloko - "Caught in a whisper"

Listen for the calling, use your pleasure
Perchance a wish and it just might come true
Beautiful is beautiful forever
You'll see yourself in me
Caught in a whisper
This is the meaning
Caught in a whisper
This is the meaning

Moloko - "Dr. Zee"

(get back into society)
(back into the community)

Dimensions are parallel
But theres this funny smell
All functions are shutting down
Everythings brown
Laxadasical haze
Not phased by the maze
Im so sick
I forgot all about my outfit

(back into society)
(go back into the community)

My skin is turning green
Feels like neoprene
This radioactivity
Has gotten inside of me
Oh, the shame!
Just being the same
As that tom, dick and harry
I wanna be larry

Come see dr zee
(go/get back into society)
New identity
(back into the community)

This so called lunachic
Its just so last week
Get it right in rehearsal
Try to think universal
Through the looking glass
Now tell me what do you see?
With a little hard work
We could be pretty

Come see dr zee
(go/get back into society)
New identity
(back into the community)

Come see dr zee
(go/get back into society)
New identity
(back into the community)

Oh, so frivolous!
I look ridiculous
A walking absurdity
Afraid of obscurity
Mm, this elegance
Has lost its relevance
Nasty rumours are doing the rounds
And its all over town

Come see dr zee
(go/get back into society)
New identity
(back into the community)

Come see dr zee
(go/get back into society)
New identity
(back into the community)

This monstrosity
Impending irony
Is playing on my mind
Still Im one of a kind

Come see dr zee
(go/get back into society)
New identity

Moloko - "The id"

(you see, it goes like this)

Momma, dont you turn away
Just because Ive gone astray
Out of the fire, into the frying pan, this is the story of a sorry man
I have been known to deviate myself from the path that is set
But let us not forget about the man who decided to dedicate his life to the jetset
He is now just a shadow of his former self
And dark clouds hover overhead
The living dead, move over, you see it goes like this

I could be a mover, I could be a shaker, dont you try to get in my way
Im the heart breaker, the money maker, this will all be mine one day
Well

I myself do not think that such a raw ambition, his disposition
To be a sin in itself, though
Should we not forget about the mess that he got himself in

Where now stands this meek and empty man, there once was a typhoon
Earthquaking, a phenomena, higher than the rest of us
cause he was steppin on us, steppin over people
And this is how the story goes, folks

I will go undefeated, Ill be protected
You think youre big time, Ill show you big time
Hollerin and swallowin air, crawling in the pit of dispair

Once he got his foot in the door,
Well you know he was a fast stepper, a bad taste in the mouth kind of guy,
Funny fella though, always had a joke or two,
But be careful, the joke could be on you
Did you ever hear the one about the id, the ego, the super ego,
The monumental man sat back to watch his automobile grow
He was a lamborghini kind of guy, got so high
He would swear he could touch the sky
But the sky was the limit

He was calling, he was crawling, riddled by the immensities of life,
Ladies of the night would call all hours of the day, every day, all day,
Calling for his mommy when the day was done
Yes, he was moving, he was shaking, so lonesome tonight,
And his eyes belied his smile awhile,
Calling for his mummy but his mummy didnt come

Once he got his foot in the door,
Well you know he was a fast stepper, a bad taste in the mouth kind of guy,
Funny fella though, always had a joke or two,
But be careful, the joke could be on you
Did you ever hear the one about the id, the ego, the super ego,
The monumental man sat back to watch his automobile grow
He was a lamborghini kind of guy, got so high
He would swear he could touch the sky
But the sky was the limit

I could be a mover, I could be a shaker, dont you try to get in my way
Im the heart breaker, the money maker, this will all be mine one day
I will go undefeated, Ill be protected
You think youre big time, Ill show you big time
Hollerin and swallowin air, crawling in the pit of dispair

Moloko - "Over my head"

Am I out of my depth?
Uninterrupted multiplicity, this is where you lose me
Come again, if you please?
Aluminium lunar luminous is taking over us
Am I missing the point?
This reeling speel, forgive me if Im wrong
But are you making this up as you go along?
And it bores me to tears
Get a handle on the dialogue
Its a one man show
Its a monologue

I could be slow I dont know
You just went over my head
I dont understand a word you just said

I could be slow I dont know
You just went over my head
I dont understand a word you just said

I cant figure it out
This cascading fountain of nothingness, youre a mess
I simply cannot believe
You met a mighty metamorphous, thats ridiculous
I am somewhat confused
Selected, collected from the gene pool
They can keep you youthful?
Well, excusez-moi, monsieur cosmique, je suis protoplasmique, quest-ce que cest?

How can I spell it out for you
I am no ordinary fool
And even though theres nothing left to say
You go ahead and say it anyway

I could be slow I dont know
You just went over my head
I dont understand a word you just said

I could be slow I dont know
You just went over my head
I dont understand a word you just said

I could be slow I dont know
You just went over my head
I dont understand a word you just said

I could be slow I dont know
You just went over my head
I dont understand a word you just said

I could be slow I dont know
You just went over my head
I dont understand a word you just said

I could be slow I dont know
You just went over my head
I dont understand a word you just said

I could be slow I dont know
You just went over my head
I dont understand a word you just said

Moloko - "Should've been,could've been"

Some of you will already know there's no place to go
This is the modern man, as good as I am
Here in the heart of the sun my memory melts
Swellegant, elephant pain, he never forgets
Should've been a beautiful thing
Couldv'e been a beautiful thing

Pull over to the side of the road, let the bold be bold
Luxury at a low introductory price, now wouldnt that be nice?
A happy little family puts you in a trance meanwhile back at the ranch
Insatiable hand-held flexible friend, why not give him a chance?
Could've been a beautiful thing
Should've been, could've been a beautiful thing

Promises of pleasure mesmerised, but how far can we get?
At least here in the eye of the storm I wont get my hairdo wet
Some of you have already foreseen yourself undone
Some of you seem to believe you've only just begun
Try a little perjury, get rich quick
My eyes are bigger than my belly is, and it makes me sick
Attitude, so much to prove, should've been a beautiful thing
Some of you will already know, and I'm still wondering
Shouldve been a beautiful thing
Couldve been a beautiful thing
I could've been, should've been, could've been a beautiful thing
Could've been a beautiful thing
Should've been, would've been a beautiful thing

(how we love to disguise)

Moloko - "Pure pleasure seeker"

Yeah
Gotta get me some
Gotta get me instant gratification
Gimme new kicks
Won't you show me new tricks
Without the ramifications
Give it a try, don't be shy
Well, you know you might like it
Never been too keen a timekeeper
But I'm a pure new pleasure seeker

All the way from Venus
Invading from Mars
Don't let that come between us
It's written in the stars
Save me from fading afraid
The tears of a fool on parade
Quietly turn into stone
Make me flesh and bone

Well come on
Oh, you know that you want it now
Well come on, yeah
You know that you want it and how

Stimulation in body and cell
For the good and misguided
Desperation, I'm under your spell
Misunderstood and derided
Speculation, they kiss and they tell
Misjudged and misquoted
Fell into the abyss
I must have wanted this
Another myth exploded

Take a weight off your mind
Trust the voice of experience
I tell you little white lies
Viva indifference
Stoke up the fire
I'm all you require
They won't set you alight
Come and live your desire

Come make me whole
Body and soul

Well come on
Oh, you know that you want it now
Well come on, yeah
You know that you want it and how

Gimme new kicks
I wanna go deeper
Never been too keen a timekeeper
Show me new tricks
You can get me on the beeper
I'm a pure new pleasure seeker

Would be a crime against passion
Not to itch that itch
Oh, don't ask how it happened
This is it
All we have ever wanted
All we will ever need
Nothing can take his place
It's written all over your face

Yeah
You know that you want it now
Come on
Oh, you know that you want it and how
Come on
Yeah you know that you want it now
Come on
Oh, you know that you want it and how

Gimme new kicks
I wanna go deeper
Never been to keen a timekeeper
Show me new tricks
You get me on the beeper
I'm a pure new pleasure seeker
Never been too keen a timekeeper...

Come make me whole
Body and soul

Come on!

Moloko - "Absent minded friends"

Well it's a silly thing
That I've been wondering

Shall we drink a toast to absent minded friends
To all who turn to corner
To those who went round the bend
Everybody raise your glasses
Drinking and drown
Melancholy for the masses
Love come down

Well it's a silly thing
That I've been wondering

Maybe you'll never bridge the gulf
Baby you're just too sensitive
Are you numb enough
Can we ever feel this impending void
Have we become what we intended to avoid

Have you ever smiled for too long
Till you're aching
Have you ever laughed till you cried
Till your heart is breaking
Have you ever smiled for too long
Till your aching
Have you ever laughed until your heart was breaking

(well it's a silly thing that I've been wondering)

Love is always riddled with selfishness
Few will find joy in their big success
From the sublime to the ridiculous in the blink of an eye
Funny all too funny, you're funny guy

If it's too much to feel
Come this way my friend
Try to keep it unreal
Feels good to let yourself descend
No pretend we can transcend our everyday existences
No distances
How did we come undone
Became what we've become

Have you ever smiled for too long till you're aching
Have you ever laughed till you cried till your heart is breaking
Have you ever smiled for too long till you're aching
Have you ever laughed until your heart is breaking

(how did we dome undone become what we've become)

Have you ever smiled for too long till your aching
Have you ever laughed till you cried till your heart was breaking

(how did we come undone became what we've become)

Have you ever smiled for too long
Have you ever laughed until your heart was breaking

(how did we come undone become what we've become) (x2)

Do you know that hue of my new blue jeans?
Can you judge the mood of the preteens?
Shrink my dreams to fit me with those laser beams.
To roll with rollerina is never quite as it seems.

You only wanna be in a garage band.
You know you wanna give the gong a bang.
But nothing ever works out as you planned.
You only ever seem to can the canned.

Moloko - "Being is bewildering"

Human being being human
Hands free nothing touches me
Trance me being cold unseen unknown
She's got to be so very happy
Be a praise to call into a cuing system listen
To the pretty music playing on your fragile system

She had a friend to call her own
But now she spends her time alone
What are the costs of growing rough
For me unfold to shut me off

Just being is bewildering

Disconnect me the line of mine
I'm calling waiting waiting on the other line

I'm at your leisure dear come get your pleasure here
I'm so glad to be so very happy
And if you need something
Anybody anything

Just being is bewildering
Call me dial L O V E
Just being is bewildering

I'll do as I'm pleased
I won't get down on bended knees

Kiss up make up don't you hang out
Stay in lay out don't see
Try to stay calm
How long do you hold on do you get to be

Just being is bewildering (x4)
