Lyrics
(
Words Willcox/
Music Lee,
Glockler)walktalkbend and break
Stumble
Crumble
The worldcar
Lost city of fire
Pyramids shake
Apartment blocks
Awakeam alone
On this lost city of Marshave grown alone
Among glass and stolen cars
The pylons hum
Geckos run
Conveyor belts hum
Stars tumble
To the foot
Of the templeam alone
On this lost city of Marshave grown alone
Among glass and stolen cars
The doors
The icemillion
Glass eyes
On a trillion
Wheeling cogs
The dust
The rustmillion mouths sigh
In the lost city of the Gods
The strangers applaud
The sect of lost horizons
And distant shores
Applause
Childhood delusions of grandeur and fame
You open door
In I cameam the child
You need to feedreceive your intentions
With instinctive greed
I'm the pet of the multitudes
I'm the pet of your metal and tubesfluid and goo
Corridors and pavements
Conveyor belts
And streams
Cosmetic operations
For all buildings in need
Pods and peas, metal fatigue
Pedestrians with soda syphons
Clockwork mice and twelve foot pythons
Hitchhikers Guide and Monty Pythons
