| Penny for your thoughts
|
| Pound for your flesh
|
| Either a penny for your thoughts or a pound for your flesh
|
| It’s that precise point of impact deep within the think tank
|
| Syntax error in my memory banks
|
| So sincerely thanked but my once oiled machinery
|
| Like british weather drearily seems to keep deceiving me
|
| Bleeding me of reason and ability to hold feeling
|
| Emotion on the run commiting treason, like it’s killing season
|
| Out patrolling these cold streets for no reason damn it’s so freezing
|
| But still I’ll keep reaching
|
| In the hope that one day I’ll eradicate these character flaws, pause
|
| Thinking that life needs to bring a little more before it stops cools and falls
|
| Like Niagara, in need of Viagra to jumpstart this celibaate soul
|
| Well I tried to see the future but tomorrow’d been sold
|
| I might be digging tunnels but I’m never the mole
|
| Perhaps I see but some of these people they refuse to lift their blindfolds
|
| This plunge pool is just too cold, too strong and I’m just too old
|
| For some of these excuses that I’ve been sold or since spent
|
| Venting my frustrations on my own sentiment relentless rent
|
| Books of blank cheques my mind can’t cash
|
| Catch a thought well I thought that I caught at least something
|
| Then I wake up in a bed of nothing, endless er sets nothing but the star
|
| Penny for your thoughts

| Pound for your flesh
|
| Do you really have enought time to invest
|
| First words the hardest
|
| My minds like a tardis with banks for the memories thanks for the memories

|
| See my head is so fucked up I need to get counselling
|
| My house is so fucked up i need to get the council in
|
| Bricks in all the walls but none in the gaps
|
| I’ve got water in my lungs but none in the taps
|
| I’ve got a seven pound walkman with iPod headphones
|
| Walking by the dead sea in the dead zone
|
| Thoughts let roam as I’m led home along a lonely shore
|
| By the clone of my long dead dog hopping on his only paws
|
| Guy looks like a soda scream, listen to this machine tryna decode a scream
|
| Tell me are androids really supposed to dream of electric sheep in electric
|
| fields
|
| I dream of an ocean green teeming with a commotion of electric eels,
|
| moving in concentric wheels
|
| This is emergent behaviour, forming complex shapes in the tetris maze but
|
| Had a Stepford Wife and the sex was great
|
| We cried real tears they dried up like Texas lakes
|
| Is this the end, let’s just wait and see
|
| Or wait for the next bus — there’s three!

|
| It’s the crowd that moves that puts the groove in us
|
| As long as we keep on moving they keep on forming a queue for us
|
| I spit enough clues the truth won’t be eluding us
|
| People see my pupils marvel at the Dr Doom in us
|
| I know that human’s lust, undo my trust
|
| Raise this tomb to the ground, break the room with us
|
| My father’s in the room with us, hearing the tune with us
|
| Feeling the groove with us I can’t see him now but I will soon enough
|
| These retorts form the store bought the angles of this legacy
|
| THe more I learn the less I wanna earn for the theiving heresy
|
| At least to the ears and eyes has got me wishing I was deaf blind
|
| Declined so many times I almost died in a damn dining chair
|
| We’re in a house of disrepair, fractions of these nightmares
|
| Led through cracks and crevices and boarded doors through weakened walls
|
| Running from room to room to keep evading
|
| Corridors are narrow where my mind’s close to a cave-in
