A man and a woman walking down the street
With a son and a daughter it was oh so sweet
When Mummy turned to Daddy and she said: 'My dear,
Write out your will the end is near!'
Then she pulled out the gun
I saw some sparks
Messed up the suit that she bought from Marks
Because she'd heard the voices from Outer Space
She'd heard the voices from Outer Space
She'd heard the voices from Outer Space saying,
'Never trust a man with egg on his face'
Three months later Mrs B stands
A smile on her face, blood on her hands
The kiddies got scared and have run home to bed
The headlines in the papers said that
She was the victim of an awful plan.
Announced through the mouthpiece of a little green man
she'd heard the voices from Outer Space saying:
'Never trust a man with egg on his face'
I've got a pizzaland complexion
And bright green sox
I am the happy little face
On the charity box
But you don't look in my direction
You always look away
You thank the Lord God above
That you were'nt modelled my way
Then I woke up
Right in the middle of a horrible dream
I woke up
I dreamt I was a spastic
But my boots were clean
You are a solid instigator
Of the human code
You held back the traffic
While I crossed the road
But please don't try to be a martyr
The good samaritan way
Because my silly cuban heels
Will give your games away
Then I woke up
Right in the middle of a horrible dream
I woke up
I dreamt I was a spastic
But my boots were clean
I woke up...
Pray for me (x4)
Then I woke up
Right in the middle of a...
I woke up, I woke up...
Back... Cartrouble
(The mix\ Part II)
Have you ever had a ride in a light blue car?
Have you ever stopped to think who's the slave
and who's the master?
Have you ever had trouble with your automobile?
Have you ever had to push push push push?
Cartrouble, oh yeah!
You might have seen them very busy at the weekends
Licking and polishing the beep - beeps into shape
And then its proudly up the M.1. M.2. M.3.
And keep your feet off the upholstery Ronnie
Cartrouble, oh yeah!
Car, carcar, trouble car carcar trouble...
Car, carcar, trouble car carcar trouble...
Car, carcar, trouble car carcar trouble...
And remember this:
You don't need anything after an icecream!
I used to sit at home silently and wonder
Why all the preference is polishing the chrome
While all the mothers and the sisters and the
babies
Sit and rot at home...?
Cartrouble, oh yeah!
And remember this:
You don't need anything after an icecream!
Car, carcar, trouble car carcar trouble...
Car, carcar, trouble car carcar trouble...
Car, carcar, trouble car carcar trouble...
Why does this feeling of togetherness always scare me away?
Why do the feelings that I have for you have to become a word?
Don't say you "love" me - oh no
Don't ask that from me - oh no no
That alphabet you call love
That alphabet you call love
That alphabet you call love
Is just a digital tenderness tenderness
Here is the start for so many broken people
All with a hard luck story and a sad sad tale
Don't say you love me - oh no
Don't ask that from me - oh no no
That alphabet you call love
That alphabet you call love
That alphabet you call love
Is just a digital tenderness tenderness
Sometimes
I need to be by myself
I need to be by your side
I need
Sometimes
I need the company of art
I need the company of friends
I need you
And my heart is stronger than a four-letter-long word
searching the eyes of so many lonely people
Whose cowardice proved much too strong for vice
Don't say you "love" me - oh no
Don't ask that from me - no no no
That alphabet you call love
That alphabet you call love
That alphabet you call love...
After nine years in the army
They took away his brain
They tattooed "defect" on his brow
And signed him up again
He killed ten thousand Germans
A hundred Japanese
A family of Hindus
And a lot of portugese,
Nine plan failed
I could never see the point of showing them you're boss
When they drag you through the city streets and naiI you to a cross
They took him to the office
They strapped him to the bed
They fastened lots of pretty wires
Securely to his head
They wheeled him down the corridor upon a metal trolley
Now he wears big spectacles and he sings like Buddy Holly,
Nine plan failed
I could never see the point of showing them you're boss
When they drag you through the city streets and nail you to a cross
The world declared its armistice and took away his guns
And now he satisfies himself on piss-weak tea and buns
On piss-weak tea and buns. oh oh... at the disco...
Rome is very pretty and Rome is very grand
But the Pope lost his four fingers when they gave this boy his hand
To kiss.
When they gave this boy his hand...
It wasn't funny no.
He wasn't very good at school
His highest grade was C
But he believed the managers when they said:
"you leave it all to me"
They gave him suits from Saville Row
The quality so fine
So now he sits in the desert wastes,
Just waiting for a sign...
Nine plan failed.
Alot of people in this great big-world say "love everybody"
A lot of people busy busy busy busy busy being very modern
But the family of noise is here and it's come to save everybody
The family of noise is here and it's come to save you and me.
It goes:
The family of noise is here and it's come to save everybody
The family of noise is here and it's come to save you and me...
Alot of people in the ancient world they loved only quiet
And then along came the machine and a new direction
The family of noise is here and it's come to save everybody
The family of noise is here and it's come to save you and me.
It goes: (Family of noise...)
She loves you yeah yeah yeah,
She loves you, and the family of noise! (x4)
In the morning
Last thing at night
In the darkness
Standing in the light
A lot of people in this great big world just searching for the "pure"
sound
They're just looking to the machine they don't listen to the noise
The family of noise is here and it's come to save everybody
The family of noise is here and it's come to save you and me.
It goes: in Croydon
Lock up your brain because I'm here again
I'm never bored, I steal your chords
Ooh-ooh Zerox Machine
Ooh-ooh Zerox Machine
Give me a line or a middle eight
I've got the best so I want the rest
Ooh-ooh Zerox Machine
Ooh-ooh Zerox Machine
Lets get together before its too late
Collect up the ideas, and duplicate
Filling up the forms, and send them off tonight
And you'll be the owner of the copyright
Of the copyright, of the copyright
Time of the essence get your ears to the ground
However else can the hits be found?
I may look happy, healthy and clean
A dark brown c voice and suit pristine
But behind the smile there is a Zerox Machine...
You may not like the things we do
Only idiots ignore the truth
It's easy to lay down and hide
But where's the warrior without his pride?
We're gonna move real good - yeah right!
We're gonna dress so fine - OK!
It's dog eat dog eat dog eat dog
Eat dog eat dog eat dog eat dog
Leapfrog the dog and brush me daddy-O!
It's easy to lay down and hide
But where's the warrior without his pride?
You may not like the things we say
What's the differance anyways?
We're gonna move real good - yeah right!
We're gonna dress so fine - OK!
It's dog eat dog eat dog eat dog
Eat dog eat dog eat dog eat dog
Leapfrog the dog and brush me daddy-O!
It makes me proud so proud of you
I see innocence shining through...
Well I'm standing here looking at you what do
I see?
I'm looking straight through!
It's so sad when you're young to be told
You're having fun
So unplug the jukebox and do us all a favour
That music's lost its taste
So try another flavour - "ANTMUSIC"
Well I'm standing here what do I see?
A big nothing threatening me!
It's so sad when you're young to be told
You're having fun
Don't tread on an ant, he's done nothing to you!
There might come a day when he's treading on
you!
Don't tread on an ant you'll end up black and
blue
You cut off his head legs come looking for you!
So unplug the jukebox and do us all a favour
That music's lost its taste
So try another flavour - "ANTMUSIC"

And there's a bullet with my name on it!
Times-a-coming when a new breed say
Welcome tomorrow instead of yesterday
My times-a-coming when those despised
Take shelter in the power of my Kiowa eyes
10:35 and I hope I've made the right decision,
oh nononononono
My heart is beating I'm alive but I don't call
this living, nononononono
Rationalise till I'm blue in the face
You cannot lose if you throw the race
I'm still searching for the Ants Invasion
10:36 and I hope I've made the right decision,
oh nononononono
Ninety eight point four's the bore with twenty
twenty vision, oh nononononono
You want a thrill so you come and see me
A cheap line in fantasy
But I'm still searching for the Ants Invasion
If I'd the courage I would make my way home
Too many antics in the forbidden zone...
10:38 and I think I've made the wrong decision,
oh nononononono
Another lifeless man with a strange incision,
oh nononononono
I hope that insect doesn't see me
He's not renowned for his courtesy
I'm still searching for the ants invasion, oh
nonono The Ants Invasion...
Oh nonono, The Ants Invasion...
Music for a future age
Don't be square be there
All good clean fun (whatever that means)

Get off your knees and hear the insect prayer
The brain will suffer so ride hard ride clean

And love goes to war (whatever that means)

In days of old, when ships were bold Just like
the men who sailed them
And if they showed us disrespect we'd tie them
up and flail them
Often men of low degree and often men of steel
Who'd make you walk the plank alone or haul you
'round the keel
Hoist the Jolly Roger!
Hoist the Jolly Roger!
Hoist the Jolly Roger!
It's your money that we want and your money we
shall have!
Of all the pirates on the seas the worst of them
was Blackbeard
So damnable a fiend from hell he was the one
they most feared
Any man who sailed with him was taking quite
a chance
He'd hang them from the gallows just to see if
they could dance (ha! ha!)
Hoist the Jolly Roger!
Hoist the Jolly Roger!
Hoist the Jolly Roger!
It's your money that we want and your money we
shall have!
There's a gang in every town
I say that the rules be turned around
Listen here from one who knows
Be fearless just like the Scorpios
Pretty, look young be fearless
Like the Scorpion
Pretty, look young be fearless
Like the Scorpion
The Scorpion
The Scorpion
Black's the colour watch the claws
With nails as sharp as Diana Dors
Watching us is stopping you
From cruising Ugly Avenue
Pretty, look young be fearless
Like the Scorpion
Pretty, have fun, don't listen
When you're told there's none
The Scorpion
The Scorpion
And if by chance you cling to hate
Just rest assured it's your mistake
Hold up your head, you know I'm right
The street's the place, tonight's the night
The night
The night (look pretty, look young be fearless
like the Scorpion)
The night (look pretty have fun, don't listen
when
you're told there's none...)
See the Spaniard eating chocolates
See the Spaniard have a ball
See the Spaniard trust in no one
He's on quality street
He's on quality street
As the masters rot on walls
And the angels eat their grapes
I watched Picasso visit The Planet Of The Apes
As the masters rot on walls
And the angels eat their grapes
I watched Picasso
Pablo Picasso visit The Planet Of The Apes (yeah)
See the Spaniard seek companion
See the Spaniard take it all
See the Spaniard sell his friends out
He's on quality street
He's on quality street
And pretenders pretend
To their patronage lend
But it's the ones we don't see
That always fascinate me
As the masters rot on walls
And the angels eat their grapes
I watched Picasso visit The Planet Of The Apes
As the masters rot on walls
And the angels eat their grapes
I watched Picasso
Pablo Picasso visit The Planet Of The Apes (yeah)
And as the real heroes died
And their ideas supplied
To a fat little magpie
With money in his eyes
They bowed and they scraped
As opinions he shaped
Now every little sketch a fortune will fetch
And the bleach killer kills
And the bleach killer kills yeah
And as the masters rot on walls (see the Spaniard
sell the whole world)...

That voodoo that you do
The shimmy lights through you
And no one can voodoo the voodoo
You do
Do to me yeah
I'm sorry if I'm not that tough
But not that tough is tough enough
Besides, the rough tough end up snuffed
Or in an alleyway anyway
I'm sorry if I'm not that smart
But not that smart is just a part
Of speaking firmly from the heart
Any day anyway

Athrill a day keeps the chill away (that)
Love like a dagger and a sound like a wymowhey

I'm the dandy highwayman who you're too scared
to mention
I spend my cash on looking flash and grabbing
your attention
The devil take your stereo and your record collection!
The way you look you'll qualify for next year's
old age pension!
Stand and deliver your money or your life!
Try and use a mirror no bullet or a knife!
I'm the dandy highwayman so sick of easy fashion
The clumsy boots, peek-a-boo roots that people
think so dashing
So what's the point of robbery when nothing is
worth taking?
It's kind of tough to tell a scruff the big mistake
he's making
Stand and deliver your money or your life!
Try and use a mirror no bullet or a knife!
And even though you fool your soul
Your conscience will be mine
All mine
We're the dandy highwaymen so tired of excuses
Of deep meaning philosophies where only showbiz
loses
We're the dandy highwaymen and here's our invitation
"Throw your safety overboard and join our
insect nation!"
Stand and deliver your money or your life!
Try and use a mirror no bullet or a knife!
And even though you fool your souls
Your conscience will be mine,
All mine
Da diddley qa qa da diddley qa qa
Da diddley qa qa da diddley qa qa
Stand and deliver your money or your life!
Stand and deliver your money or your life!...
Put some wax on the trax and slide on onta here!
Hane hane hane hane hane
Hatchets in the corner ears to the ground
Improve to the groove get down to the sound
Buttons and bows and bleu blanc rouge
All things lively must be used
Liberte, egalite, au jour d'hui c'est tres tres
tres
Voici l'opportunite nous Incroyables
I got the moves they got the grooves
Summoned the Gods and they all approved
Bad vibes akimbo on the shelf
Bit of a rap thing going for myself
This gold on the teeth's no sense at all
It only matters when it's on the wall
I'm standing here with my four men
Let's start that rapping thing again:
Marco, Merrick, Terry Lee, Gary Tibbs and yours
truly
In the naughty North and in the sexy South
We're all singing I have the mouth
In the naughty North and in the sexy South
We're all singing I have the mouth
I have the mouth
So tired of anarchists looking at me
Don't need their credibility
"destroy," they say, "defy! condemn!"
As long as you don't destroy them
With twenty years of drugs and drink
I thought the time had come to think
About standing up and saying that
It's tragedy and such old hat
I'm standing here with my four men
Let's start that rapping thing again:
(I got) Marco, Merrick, Terry Lee, Gary Tibbs
and yours truly
In the naughty North and in the sexy South
We're all singing I have the mouth
In the naughty North and in the sexy South
We're all singing I have the mouth
I have the mouth
These happy feet are all we need
Summoned the Gods and they all agreed
These feet won't stop they're in such a hurry
I knock it on the head and I go for a curry
Staying sober can be neat
Get drunk on these here happy feet
Keep on trying to pin me down
"Why a title for your sound?"
I'm standing here with my four men
Let's do this rapping thing again:
I got Marco, Merrick, Terry Lee, Gary Tibbs and
yours truly
In the naughty North and in the sexy South
We're all singing I have the mouth...
And I have the mouth
And you have the mouth
And they got the mouth!
