"Dream Time" lyrics
"Dream Time"
Streets I ran - this whole town -
Backstreets and all - I wanted to leave there
But no matter how fast I ran, my feet were glued, I just couldn't move there
I saw the hate and lots of people
I heard my name called above the noise
I tried to speak but my tongue was tied
Bumped into emptiness and started to cry - oh no
I saw the lights and the pretty girls
And I thought to myself what a pretty world
But there's something else here that puts me off
And I'm so scared dear, my love comes in frozen packs
Bought in a supermarket
Streets I ran, through wind and rain
Around this place amongst streaming sunshine
Scared I was, sweating now
Feeling of doom, my bowels turned to water
I felt hot breath whisper in my ear
I looked for somewhere to hide but everywhere's closed
I shut my eyes pretend not to be here
This feeling's much to real to ever disappear - oh no
I saw the lights and the pretty girls
And I thought to myself what a pretty world
But there's something else here that puts me off
And I'm so scared dear, their hate comes in frozen packs
Bought in a supermarket
Boy, it's a tough tough world
But you've got to be tough with it
And I'm so scared dear -
My love comes in frozen packs

The Beautiful South - "We Are Each Other" There's no more little secrets we haven't yet disclosed
We bore the living daylights of anyone too close
And all our cards at Christmas are written to us both
Count them up who's got the most?...
Cast - "Promised Land" You say you caught a glimpse
Of a man with reverence
And If you could ever meet
Would you please report to me
Tell me what did he say to change your day
And keep the fear at bay
If you did you...
Ian Brown - "My Star" Space exploration for nuclear stations
NASA corrupters, jeweled abductors
Space exploration, excursion to stars
On a military mission, on a military journey to Mars
I'll see you in my star, I'll see...
James - "Withdrawn" Withdrawn, muscles all tense
Nothing flows for the self-obsessed
Feel all washed up
Restless, can't sit still
A mental state, or a physical ill
Toxic, bones all cracked
Step on a bus, get a panic...
