Lyrics

1. BURNT GAS

Slow Down In A Big City-Street
Revel In A Ravishing Crash
Everyone Is Now Watchin' Spellbound
A Pause In Our Daily Rush
Keep Back ! A Traffic Cop Yells In Vain
Fascination All Around !
The Staring Crowd Seems To Be Paralysed
They're Gassed Right Out Of Their Minds ?

There's No Chance To Expect A Relief
‘Cause We Need Automobiles
And In The End We Are Cancer-Meals
Never Escape The Deal
Turn Down ! Yells Our Mind, But In Vain
Fascination All Around !
All Mankind Seems To Be Paralysed
We're Gassed Right Out Of Our Minds !

(Burnt Gas)
Stiffens Your Loungs And Your Knees
(Burnt Gas)
Let You Forget You've Gotta Breathe
(Burnt Gas)
Fills Up Your Head With A Peal
(Burnt Gas)
Don't Get Excited, You're Saving A Meal


2. HE'S IN THE RIGHT

I Had A Chum, Alister Mason
Features Like A Bubble-Gum
We Got To Be, We Got To Be Friends
'Cause He Had Never Had No-One
Without A Help He'd Never Resist
The Fear Of Being A Whipping-Boy
He Tried To Be A Fool That He Was
To Be Another Someon
Live Another Someone's Life

Right After School We Lost Sight Of Each Other
The Way Things Often Go
He Must Have Looked For A New Lord And Master
Being At The End Of His Rope
We Met Again On An Unannounced Demo
I Couldn't Believe My Eyes
He Sneered At Me, Gave A Sign To The Fuzz
And They Showed Me A Cell From Inside

(He's In The Right) He's In The Right, Babe
As A Well-Fed Busy Nark
(He's In The Right) He's In The Right, Babe
Snoop Around With All His Heart
(He's In The Right) He's In The Right, Babe
As A Well-Fed Busy Nark
(He's In The Right) He's In The Right, Babe
For The Pension Fund Give Blessing To His Deal

This Demonstration Has Not Been Registered !
It's Time To Call It A Day !
We Have Everything Under Control ! Get Back ! Make Way !
O. K. Boys ! Let 'Em Have It ! Keep Back There !
Watch Out ! Catch That One !
Don't Let Him Get Away !
Break It Up ! Make Way !


3. TALK TO YOU

Talk To You, Lord Gimme A Sign
Cos' A Pious Groupie's What I Call Mine
Oh, Late In The Night, Spirits Were High
She Got Into Ecstasy Over You, Lord

Oh, Lord I'm Enraged, Take It From Me
Cos' That Pretty Little Girl Told That She Loves Me
Oh, Lord She Strikes Me Dumb, But I Know In Real
Know In Real That She Knows What She's About

She Want A Parthenogenesis
But I Can't Help 'Cause I'm Not Jesus
She Want A Parthenogenesis
She Keeps Me Waitin', Yes, I'm Caught In A Quag
No, I Can't Get It Off My Mind
She Keeps Me Waitin' And I Feel It's A Drag
'Cause I Can't Find The Way To Her Fool's Paradise

Parthenogenesis Like 2000 Years Ago
Born To A Maiden Untouched
Mary Didn't Know What Happened To Her
But This Girl Is Askin' Too Much
I'm Talkin' About Virgin Birth
A Virgin Birth Cannot Be Wished
If It Can Be Done At All, A Chosen Girl
But That Ain't You
So Love Me And Forget It All


4. DEAL DONE AT NIGHT

A Deal Done At Night
A Question-Mark On You And Your Life
Deal Done At Night
Will Get You Nowhere 'Cause It's Just A Lie

I Had A Girl Who Was Dreamin' Of Fame
Like So Many Young Girls Do
With Those Chicks It Is Always The Same
Think They're Right But Don't Have A Clue
She's Always Lookin' Out For A Chance
Wearing Patent Leather Boots
She Feels So Naked Without Long Eye Lashes
Falls For Every Show-Biz Mood

It Made Me Sick When She Said To Me Proudly
She Was Posing In The Nude
She Calls It Temporary Temporize
Temporary Uneasy Truth
She Really Got To Be A Peep-Show Star
A Butterfly In A Jar
Gotta Know If The Solution Is Right
Life Is What You Are

A Deal Done At Night
A Question-Mark On You And Your Life
Deal Done At Night
Will Get You Nowhere 'Cause It's Just A Lie
A Deal Done At Night
A Question-Mark On You And Your Life
Deal Done At Night
Will Get You Nowhere 'Cause It's Just A Lie


5. DON'T CALL ME UP

You've Got A Whole Lot, Whole Lotta Stories
Whole Lot Of Things To Say
And Everytime Somehow In Some Way
We Play The Same Old Game
You're Keepin' A Watchful Eyes On A Ring
Pasin' At A Jewellers Shop
You Glance At Me And I Glance At You
Guess, You Don't Have Clue
Ain't Gonna Waste No Time

You Only Laugh When I've Been Hurt
Dead Beat All Down The Line
And Everytime Somehow In Some Way
Yeah, We Play The Same Old Game
You Make A Fool Of, Fool Of Me
A Means To An End
You're Gonna Say You
Love Me So True But Babe I See Through

You Don't Call Me Up, Don't Call Me Up Tonight, Babe
Don't Call Me Up, Just Harping On The Same String
Don't Call Me Up, Don't Call Me Up Tonight, Babe
Don't Call Me Up, 'Cause I Just Won't Be There
You Really Knock Me Out, Babe

Don't Call Me Up, I Just Won't Be There
(Babe, He Just Won't Be There)
Can't You See, I Can't Stand The Pain
(Babe, He Just Won't Be There)
You're Gonna Say That You Love Me, Babe
(Babe, He Just Won't Be There)
Can't You See, I Can't Stand The Pain, Yeah !


6. ABSOLUTION

You've Got To Run Up, You're In A Torment
Try To Win The Golden Calf
You Try To Do Your Best An Acolyte Of Wealth You Are
You Get Ahead, Elbow Your Way Through
Tramp Down Your Former Chums
Watchin' The Late Night News
You Glance At Hunger, Bombs And War

Stung By Remorse, Askin' Your Conscience
Why Nothin' Makes No Sense
While On The Screen A Lad In Disguise
Blesses You And The Whole World, The Show Of Shows

He's Shakin' Hands, Public Relations Like Every Singer Do
A Dummy Of The Mighty And The Rich Just Workin' To The Rule
He's Workin' Through Every Country
Meets Tyrants And Democrats
It Is No End Of Trouble, Exegesis Fit Them All

Stung By Remorse, Askin' Your Conscience
Why Nothin' Makes No Sense
While On The Screen A Lad In Disguise
Blesses You And The Whole World
(Absolution) Who Gives Absolution To That Bloke In Rome
(Absolution) Who Is Willin' To Play God ? You Win A Silver Pot

Stung By Remorse, Askin' Your Conscience
Why Nothin' Makes No Sense
While On The Screen A Lad In Disguise
Blesses You And The Whole World, The Show Of Shows

(Absolution) Who Gives Absolution To That Bloke In Rome
(Absolution) To A Fool Who Bans BIRTH CONTROL
(Absolution) An Alibi To Snub A Thing He'd Never Done
(Absolution) Who Is Willin' To Play God ? You Win A Silver Pot !


7. ANOTHER DEATH

A Fisherman Is Out At Sea
But There's No Fish In The Water
His Net Is Black As He Pulls It Free
A Shock's Awaiting Him
He Always Tried To Find A Good Place
He Knew The Fish Would Be There
Last Fish He Saw Had Death On Ist Face
A Fate He Soon Would Share

Another Man Was Spending His Life
Transporting Oil In Tankers
Then One Day, They Said To His Wife
We Must Give You Our Thanks
Your Husband Tried, He Tried The Best
To Save Our Precious Cargo
Our Ship Was Caught By A Gale From The West
It Sank Dragged Him Below

Another Death, Another Life Is Gone
The Ocean Now Is Turnin' Into An Oilpit
Another Ship, Another Load Is Gone
We Only Live As Long As It Takes Us To Spoil It
