1. THE PADDINGTON FRISK

To be strung up on a leafless tree,
Where everything dies and nothing grows
Hanging like moulding fruit
One last dance whilst you decompose

On come the paddington spectacles
A black plague over all I admired
A vegetable breakfast, a hearty choke
Seems like the whole world conspired

But there stood a man
He was cut up, distraught and cold
But amongst the wreckage of his ribcage
His heart still thudded as he said

I regard myself as a soldier
Though a soldier of peace
I know the value of discipline and truth
I must ask you to believe me when I say…

No matter if it all backfires kid
No matter if it all goes wrong
We just gotta get ourselves together
We've sat still for far too long
Now this ain't over yet
As far as I can see…
We've only just begun


2. RADIATE

To take away our expression
Is to impoverish our existence

Oi!
Yeah, kick it.
Yeah.

It's insatiable;
What we're waiting for

So to keep us from falling apart
We'll write songs in the dark
And to keep us from fading away
We'll write for a better day

So to keep us from falling apart
We'll write songs in the dark
And to keep us from fading away
We'll write...

It Will Flourish, It Will Thrive
It Will Nourish;
A Spring Cleaning Of The Mind
It Will Flourish, It Will Thrive

To take away our expression
Is to impoverise our existence

They silence and censor
Our right to create
In cells we choke,
Without what is innate

So to keep us from falling apart
We'll write songs in the dark
And to stop us from fading away
We'll write for a better day

This vomiting of anguish and eruption of the soul
To radiate energy to comfort and console
To scatter our thoughts, to splatter our spirit
A blizzard of fire with all we transmit

So to keep us from falling apart
We'll write songs in the dark
And to stop us from fading away
We'll write for a better day

So to keep us from falling apart
We'll write songs in the dark
And to stop us from fading away
We'll write for a better...

So to keep us from falling apart
We'll write songs in the dark
And to keep us from fading away
We'll write for a better day

So to keep us from falling apart
We'll write songs in the dark
And to keep us from fading away
We'll write...

It's insatiable;
What we're waiting for
(x4)

It Will Flourish, It Will Thrive
It Will Nourish;
A Spring Cleaning Of The Mind
It Will Flourish, It Will Thrive
Yeah!

It's insatiable;
What we're waiting for
(Woah-oh)
(x2)

So to keep us from falling apart
We'll write songs in the dark
And to keep us from fading away
We'll write for a better day

So to keep us from falling apart
We'll write songs in the dark
And to stop us from fading away
We'll write for a better day


3. RAT RACE

My heart beats in my head and it's thunderous
Those caught in the rat race plunder us
They know what's best for us
They know what's best for us

Gotta keep up, gotta get ahead
Gotta go and get a job and work 'til I'm dead
They know what's best for us
They know what's best for us

And I'm thinking that they must have missed the point
Hold on, we just hold on for an exit
And I'm thinking that they must have missed the point
Hold on, we just hold on for an exit

Out to defeat, out to defeat everyone
Out to deceive, out to deceive anyone
They know what's best for us
They know what's best for us

Who holds the master key givin' to authority (WHAT?)
I don't know, it's a foul monstrosity
They know what's best for us
They know what's best for us

And I'm thinking that they must have missed the point
Hold on, we just hold on for an exit
And I'm thinking that they must have missed the point
Hold on, we just hold on for an exit

You see the purpose of the rat race defeats me
When we're gone what's left behind?
But there seems to be no end or reason
Yet we still carry on

You see the purpose of the rat race defeats me
When we're gone what's left behind?
But there seems to be no END

When you finally reach the front of the pack
There's nothing there, just and endless barren track
It goes on and on
It goes on and on

You know what?
Let's get disqualified!
Let's get disqualified!
And I'm thinking that they must have missed the point
Hold on, we just hold on for an exit
And I'm thinking that they must have missed the point
Hold on, we just hold on for an exit
