PARALYSED
Blinkered, paralysed
Flat on my back
They say our world is built on endeavor
That every man is for himself
Wealth is for the one that wants it
Paradise, if you can earn it
History is the reason
I'm washed up
Blinkered, paralysed
Flat on my back
My ambitions come to nothing
What I wanted now just seems a waste of time
I can't make out what has gone wrong
I was good at what I did
And I'm the dupe
. . .

This wheel spins letting me off
It's not the lack of trying
Can't put my finger on it
You can't help being hard up
Can't trust the gods we trusted
Don't think that's any insurance
Could I be happy with something else
I need something to fill my time
Could I be happy with someone else
I need someone to fill my time
This wheel spins letting me off
These doubts and nagging worries
Nothing to work towards
This demon on my back
Preaches the razors cut
The hope that does not fade
Could I be happy with something else
I need something to fill my time
Could I be happy with someone else
I need someone to fill my time
This wheel spins letting me off
It's not the lack of trying
Can't put my finger on it
You can't help being hard up
Can't trust the gods we trusted
Don't think that's any insurance
Could I be happy with something else
I need something to fill my time
Could I be happy with someone else
I need someone to fill my time
Could I be happy with something else
I need something to fill my time
Could I be happy with someone else
I need someone to fill my time
What we want's not what we get

If I could keep it for myself
What did you say I am confused
I don't remember what did we do last week
Can you imagine in the dark
Everything has been cynically shot it's gone
Are there no surprises anymore?
It was hot then it was cold
The view imagined in the dark
My heart sticking to my ribs
Your back's clammy with the heat
If I could keep it for myself
Can you imagine in the dark
Everything has been cynically shot it's gone
Are there no surprises anymore?
It was hot and it was cold
The view imagined in the dark
My heart was sticking to my ribs
Your back clammy with the heat
If I could keep it for myself x4
What did you say I am confused
I don't remember what I didn't do last week
Everything has been cynically shot it's gone
Are there no surprises anymore?
If I could keep it for myself

Keeping up nostalgic
Want to own tomorrow
Discipline is his passion
Now is enough
Outside the trains don't run on time
He believes it's not coincidence
He thinks the blood will run them down
Hold it's no castle
It's once it's white to run and fetch
Order his obsession order order
Discipline is his passion
Now the stench is done
Order his obsession
Now the stench is done
Outside the trains don't run on time
He believes it's not coincidence
He thinks the blood will run them down
Hold it's no castle
It's once it's white to run and fetch
Order his obsession
The trains don't run on time
The scoundrel discipline is his passion
Now stench is done
Outside the trains don't run on time

We've all got opinions.
Where do they come from?
Each day seems like a natural fact,
and what we think changes how we act.
We've all got opinions.
Where do they come from?
Distant thunder from the east
won't disturb a morning car wash.
Each day seems like a natural fact,
and what we think changes how we act.
So to change ideas changes what we do.
Too much thinking makes me ill.
I think I'll have another gin.
A few more drinks and it'll be all right.
Each day seems like a natural fact,
and what we think changes how we act.
Each day seems like a natural fact.
Each day seems like a natural fact.
Each day seems like a natural fact.
Each day seems like a natural fact.

(I need a cheeseburger to go)
I move from one place to the next
I hope they keep down the price of gas
I shoot fast while you're talking dollars
see how I will run the table
I won't see my dollar go where they rig it
high numbers, low numbers, 8 ball break
the last cent is coming out of his head
to be honest or a son like his own
and all this changed, we're sure of the rides
the old country's in the back of his mind
I hope his home is somewhere you go to sleep
high numbers, low numbers, 8 ball break
no classes in the u s of a
improve yourself the choice is yours
work at your job, you can make it pay
make friends quick, buy them beer
you never know when you're gonna lose them
high numbers, low numbers, 8 ball break
I'm at the wheel of the company truck
on the road and all alone
sometimes I think "money is my only goal"
it makes me sad
work on up another four miles
coffee, fries and a cheeseburger
. . .

Heads down, down to the floor
Run past the windows and close the door
Whatever you do stay calm
Show me a ditch and I'll dive it
I'll feel safe beyond the cares of the world
Good news is prospect
Excluding the six feet under
Marshall music the beat goes on
Get down down to the floor
Marshall music the beat goes on
Get down down to the floor
Get down down to the floor
Under the table with the radio on
Whatever you do stay calm
The cupboard is stocked, the door is locked
I'll feel safe beyond the cares of the world
Good news is prospect
Excluding the six feet under
Marshall music the beat goes on
Get down down to the floor
Marshall music the beat goes on
Get down down to the floor
Show me a ditch and I'll dive in it
Show me a ditch and I'll dive in it
Show me a ditch and I'll dive in it
Show me a ditch and I'll dive in it
I'll dive in it
I'll dive in it
I'll dive in it
I'll dive in it
Heads down, down to the floor
Run past the windows and close the door
Whatever you do stay calm
Show me a ditch and I'll dive it
I'll feel safe beyond the cares of the world
Good news is prospect
Excluding the six feet under
Marshall music the beat goes on
Get down down to the floor
Marshall music the beat goes on
Get down down to the floor
I'll dive in it
I'll dive in it
I'll dive in it
I'll dive in it

Education is their business
Women to know that they are equal
Why work for love if it shows no profit
You'll only earn emotional losses
Wasting time a hole in the wallet
There is only one condition
Stay in bed or in the kitchen
Better not (you'll only earn emotional losses)
Disrupt their passions
Mirror reflect their teaching
Make up makes up for your nature
Make up makes up for your nature
You're for seeing and not for hearing
Their commands are in your interest
Why work for love if it shows no profit
You'll only earn emotional losses
Wasting times a hole in the wallet
Their commands are your interest
There is only one condition
You're for seeing and for the taking
Why work for love if it shows no profit
You'll only earn emotional losses
Wasting times a hole in the wallet
Better not (you'll only earn emotional losses)
Disrupt their passions
Education is their business
Women to know that they are equal
There is only one condition
Stay in bed or in the kitchen
