B Child 02:43
Once I was alive I was petrified Once I was alive I was yearning, yearning Once I was alive, I was sent to die Once I was alive I was earning, earning Stand in line, give a smile How come your child, he’s too wild? Forgive them all and rip them tiles off of the wall. Once when I was five I was sent to thrive Once when I was five, I was learning, learning. By the age of nine made my mother cry By the age of nine I was gurning, gurning Stand in line, feeling fine To use your mind, it’s a crime 'Cos thou shalt not be sublime. When all that you read is red and all you conceive is lead. When all that you read is red; all that you need is... When all that you read... And all you conceive... When all that you read...

Cancer Knee 03:25
I swear you’ll find it all, (That’s where you’ll find it all) I swear you’ll find it all a-tapping on the cancer knee That’s where you’ll find it all I swear you’ll find it all. (That’s where you’ll find it all) I swear I found it all, Went up and down the hall and all the trippings and the trappings on the trampolenes It’s where you find it all; I swear you’ll find it all (That’s where you’ll find it all) I swear I found it odd; became a demigod. Up in the Pleiades a-staring down at this disease I swear you’ll find it all, that’s where you’ll find it all. (I swear you’ll find it all)

You Are 04:28
Just say you are Just say you are Laying in on a long haul Learning on a rose Waiting for your cold call for you to come home. Laying in, just a lucid dream. Just a lucid dream. Just a lucid dream. Just say you are. Just say you are. Hiking on the busy streets and leafing through the fallen leaves Just say you are. Just say you are. Cotching in the boatyard; Catch another cold. All in all it’s quite hard for you to unfold. Laying in, just a lucid dream. Just a lucid dream. Just a ludic dream. Let it all, all let go. Paid in full. Pay your boss and go. Laying in just a lucid dream. Just a lucid dream. Just a lucid dream. Just say you are. Just say you are. I can see you follow me and I can see that you can see. Just say you are. Just say you are.

Platipi 02:32
And so it all began on saturday. You met a poor small boy, he just wanted to say “Hey” But wanted more than that, just didn’t say. So I say “Oh, that’s just - now ain’t that just the way?” You scream and you cry You read and you write You bleed and you fuss and you fight and you gripe ...till the morning daylight And on your bicycle you run the wheel. Above a great big man sat on that frame of steel And in your hamster run, you’re looking straight - Not now, there’s no direction for you to dictate. You scream and you cry. You read and you write. You bleed and you fuss and you fight and you gripe ...till the morning daylight. On your rope you creep until you croak. You fight and you fuss and you mope. What you aught to be; forcing your anatomy; wash all you platipi home. Oh, and you say you cried until today when fortune has fed you the way. Oh, look at me now mum, I’m cleaning up this click gone wrong Muddy mess, gone shiny-strong!

But when you’re walking on your rickety road You walk in sprickets and you splicket-explode You say it’s told - you say “it’s all been told.” So when you’re walking on your road and you splickety-explode, you say “It’s told.” You take your wash and then you watch it corrode You’re watching all of them colours then flow You say “it’s cold, this wash is awful cold.” So when you’re washing up your rose and you see them colours flow, you say it’s cold. You’re walking awful girl, you’re walking on your knees. You’re praying often, you’re praying “Oh Lord, please!” You say “Oh please, come and cure me of this disease.” So when you’re walking on your knees and you’re praying “Oh Lord, please cure this disease.” Sat me down, She sat me down on the street. Sat me down, She sat me down on the street. Sat me down; Down, down in simple town. Down, down in simple. Sat me down on the street, I could get a disease with these cats-eyes like opals tanning our feet (repeat)
