Lyrical Epik High

In the next world war
in a jack knifed juggernaut,
I am born again.

In the neon sign,
scrolling up and down,
I am born again.

In an interstellar burst,
I am back to save the universe.

In a deep deep sleep,
of the innocent,
I am born again.

In a fast German car,
I'm amazed that I survived,
an airbag saved my life.

In an interstellar burst,
I am back to save the universe.

In an interstellar burst,
I am back to save the universe.

In an interstellar burst,
I am back to save the universe.

Please could you
stop the noises

I'm trying to
get some rest

From all the unborn
chicken voices

in my head

What's that

(My name is Paranoid)
(I am your android)

What's that

(My name is Paranoid)
(I am your android)

When I am king

you will be
first against the wall

With your opinion which

is of no
consequence at all

What's that

(My name is Paranoid)
(I am your android)

What's that

(My name is Paranoid)

Ambition makes you
look pretty ugly

Kicking squealing
gucci little piggy@

You don't remember
You don't remember

Why don't you
remember my name

Off with his head man
Off with his head man

Why won't he remember
my name I guess he does@

Come on rain down on me

From a great height

that's it sir,
you're leaving

the crackle of pig skin

the dust and
the screaming

the yuppies ne

The breath of the morning
I keep forgetting.
The smell of the warm summer air.

I live in a town
where you can't smell a thing,
you watch your feet
for cracks in the pavement.

Up above
aliens hover
making home movies
for the folks back home,

of all these weird creatures
who lock up their spirits,
drill holes in themselves
and live for their secrets.

They're all uptight, uptight,
uptight, uptight,
uptight, uptight.

I wish that they'd sweep down in a country lane,
late at night when I'm driving.
Take me on board their beautiful ship,
show me the world as I'd love to see it.

I'd tell all my friends but they'd never believe me,
They'd think that I'd finally lost it completely.
I'd show them the stars and the meaning of life.
They'd shut me away.
But I'd be alright, alright,
I'd be alright,
I'm alright.

I'm just uptight, uptight,
uptight, uptight,
uptight, uptight,
uptight, uptight,
uptight.

Wake from your sleep

The drying of
your tears

Today we escape
We escape

Pack and get dressed

Before your father
hears us

Before all hell
breaks loose

Breathe keep breathing
Don't loose your nerve

Breathe keep breathing
I can't do this alone

Sing us a song
A song to keep us warm

there's such a chill
such a chill

You can laugh
A spineless laugh

We hope your rules
and wisdom choke you

Now we are one
In everlasting peace

We hope
that you choke

that you choke

We hope
that you choke

that you choke

We hope
that you choke

that you choke@

Let down

Song by
Radiohead

Transport motorways
and tramlines
Starting and
then stopping
Taking off and landing
The emptiest of
feelings
Disappointed people
clinging on to bottles
And when it comes
it's so
so disappointing
Let down and
hanging around
Crushed like a bug
in the ground
Let down and
hanging around@

Shell smashed
juices flowing
Wings twitch
legs are going
Don't get sentimental
It always ends up
drivel
One day
I am gonna grow wings
A chemical reaction
Hysterical and useless
Hysterical and
Let down and
hanging around
Crushed like a bug
in the ground
Let down and
hanging around@

Let down
Let down
Let down
You know you know
where you are with
You know
where you are with
Floor collapsing
falling bouncing back
And one day
I am gonna grow wings
A chemical reaction
Hysterical and useless
Hysterical and
Let down and
hanging around
Crushed like a bug
in the ground
Let down and
hanging around@

Karma police
Arrest this man

He talks in maths
He buzzes like a fridge

He's like a
detuned radio

Karma police
Arrest this girl

Her hitler hairdo
is makin me feel ill

And we have
crashed her party

This is what you get
This is what you get

This is what you get
when you mess with us

Karma police
I've given all I can

It's not enough
I've given all I can

But we're still
on the payroll

This is what you get
This is what you get

This is what you get
when you mess with us

For a minute there
I lost myself

I will stop, I will stop at nothing.
Say the right things when electioneering
I trust I can rely on your vote.

When I go forwards you go backwards
and somewhere we will meet.
When I go forwards you go backwards
and somewhere we will meet.
Ha ha ha

Riot shields, voodoo economics,
it's just business, cattle prods and the I.M.F.
I trust I can rely on your vote.

When I go forwards you go backwards
and somewhere we will meet.

I am the key to the lock in your house
That keeps your toys in the basement
And if you get too far inside
You'll only see my reflection

It's always best when the light is off
I am the pick in the ice
Do not cry out or hit the alarm
You know we're friends till we die

And either way you turn
I'll be there
Open up your skull
I'll be there
Climbing up the walls

It's always best when the light is off
It's always better on the outside
Fifteen blows to the back of your head
Fifteen blows to your mind

So lock the kids up safe tonight
Put the eyes in the cupboard
I've got the smell of a local man
Who's got the loneliest feeling

That either way he turns
I'll be there

Open up your skull
I'll be there

Climbing up the walls
Climbing up the walls
Climbing up the walls

A heart that's full up like a landfill,
a job that slowly kills you,
bruises that won't heal.
You look so tired-unhappy,
bring down the government,
they don't, they don't speak for us.
I'll take a quiet life,
a handshake of carbon monoxide,

with no alarms and no surprises,
no alarms and no surprises,
no alarms and no surprises,
Silent silence.

This is my final fate,
my final bellyache,

with no alarms and no surprises,
no alarms and no surprises,
no alarms and no surprises please.

Such a pretty house
and such a pretty garden.

No alarms and no surprises,
no alarms and no surprises,
no alarms and no surprises please

I'm on a roll,
I'm on a roll this time
I feel my luck could change.

Kill me Sarah,
kill me again with love,
it's gonna be a glorious day.

Pull me out of the aircrash,
Pull me out of the lake,
I'm your superhero,
we are standing on the edge.

The head of state has called for me by name
but I don't have time for him.
It's gonna be a glorious day!
I feel my luck could change.

Pull me out of the aircrash,
Pull me out of the lake,
I'm your superhero,
we are standing on the edge.
We are standing on the edge.

It barks at no-one else but me,
like it's seen a ghost.
I guess it's seen the sparks a-flowin,
no-one else would know.

Hey man, slow down, slow down,
idiot, slow down, slow down.

Sometimes I get overcharged,
that's when you see sparks.
They ask me where the hell I'm going?
At a 1000 feet per second,

hey man, slow down, slow down,
idiot, slow down, slow down.

Hey man, slow down, slow down,
idiot, slow down, slow down.
