Inside my time machine Where we can dream, hm hm Away from the world And all its cares Time machine
Alone, a sun and moon Escaping doom, hm hm From wars and destiny We will flee Time machine
We will find a star to guide us To a time when all our men were free Free
Away across to Mars Like shooting stars, hm hm We’ll stay and see It’s mystery Time machine
Maybe we can find a place where our minds will run Together like the water in a stream Life would be sublime if only words would rhyme To a melody within a fantasy
Beyond this universe Infinite space, hm hm We’ll take our love And arts Time machine
Inside my time machine Where we can dream, hm hm Away from the world And all its cares Time machine
Well, you’re my friend, and can you see? Many times, we’ve been out drinking; Many times we shared our thoughts. But did you ever, ever notice, the kind of thoughts I got? Well, you know I have a love; a love for everyone I know. And you know I have a drive, to live I won’t let go. But can you see its opposition, comes rising up sometimes? That its dreadful imposition, comes blacking in my mind?
And then I see a darkness, And then I see a darkness, And then I see a darkness, And then I see a darkness. Did you know how much I love you? Its a hope that somehow you, Can save me from this darkness.
Well, I hope that someday buddy We have peace in our lives; Together or apart, Alone or with our wives, And we can stop our whoring, And pull the smiles inside, And light it up forever, And never go to sleep. My best unbeaten brother, This isn’t all I see.
Oh no, I see a darkness. Oh no, I see a darkness. (Oh) no, I see a darkness. Oh no, I see a darkness. Did you know how much I love you? Its a hope that somehow you, Can save me from this darkness.

You say it was this morning when you last saw your good friend Lyin’ on the pavement with a misery on his brain Stoned on some new potion he found upon the wall Of some unholy bathroom in some ungodly hall He only had a dollar to live on ’til next Monday But he spent it on some comfort for his mind Did you say you think he’s blind?
Someone should call his parents, a sister or a brother And they’ll come to take him back home on a bus But he’ll always be a problem to his poor and puzzled mother Yeah he’ll always be another one of us He said he wanted Heaven but prayin’ was too slow So he bought a one way ticket on an airline made of snow Did you say you saw your good friend flyin’ low? Flyin’ low Dyin’ slow

Well, it ain’t too good, The way you treat your man, It’s less than good, It sure ain’t kind, It’s your mistake, You’ll see in time, When I’m gone, when I’m gone.
Well, it’s been so long, Since I felt that glow, The flame was bright, But it’s burning low, I should be gone, But I’m slow to go, Serves me right, serves me…..
It doesn’t seem clear, What happens from here and now, You’ve called the tune, but maybe soon, Someone must pay for the piper.
Well, it ain’t too late, To change your mind, For it’s time you knew, Just where I stand, Well, let me know, ‘Cause I got plans, From now on, from now on, from now on.
I am he as you are he as you are me and we are all together. See how they run like pigs from a gun, see how they fly. I’m crying.
Sitting on a cornflake, waiting for the van to come. Corporation tee-shirt, stupid bloody Tuesday. Man, you been a naughty boy, you let your face grow long. I am the eggman, they are the eggmen. I am the walrus, goo goo g’joob.
Mister City Policeman sitting Pretty little policemen in a row. See how they fly like Lucy in the Sky, see how they run. I’m crying, I’m crying. I’m crying, I’m crying.
Yellow matter custard, dripping from a dead dog’s eye. Crabalocker fishwife, pornographic priestess, Boy, you been a naughty girl you let your knickers down. I am the eggman, they are the eggmen. I am the walrus, goo goo g’joob.
Sitting in an English garden waiting for the sun. If the sun don’t come, you get a tan From standing in the English rain. I am the eggman, they are the eggmen. I am the walrus, goo goo g’joob g’goo goo g’joob.
Expert textpert choking smokers, Don’t you thing the joker laughs at you? See how they smile like pigs in a sty, See how they snied. I’m crying.
Semolina pilchard, climbing up the Eiffel Tower. Elementary penguin singing Hari Krishna. Man, you should have seen them kicking Edgar Allan Poe. I am the eggman, they are the eggmen. I am the walrus, goo goo g’joob g’goo goo g’joob. Goo goo g’joob g’goo goo g’joob g’goo…
Old man lying by the side of the road With the lorries rolling by, Blue moon sinking from the weight of the load And the building scrape the sky, Cold wind ripping down the allay at dawn And the morning paper flies, Dead man lying by the side of the road With the daylight in his eyes.
Don’t let it bring you down It’s only castles burning, Find someone who’s turning And you will come around.
Blind man running through the light of the night With an answer in his hand, Come on down to the river of sight And you can really understand, Red lights flashing through the window in the rain, Can you hear the sirens moan? White cane lying in a gutter in the lane, If you’re walking home alone.
Don’t let it bring you down It’s only castles burning, Just find someone who’s turning And you will come around.
Don’t let it bring you down It’s only castles burning, Just find someone who’s turning And you will come around.
Call me down, the time is here reminding you to slow the wheel now, nearing the end of the day, look, never a moment too soon, or late.
Count the hours, the weeks the days, forcing natures’ slow decay here, as we look down on you there you, fall on into your web of despair.
Man! You had it all your own way, Now, salvaging blocks of decay. Clean the scene; Change machines!
2. Cybernetic consumption
3. Recycle Countdown
Talk away, the die is cast all the day, the reasons last. Just look what is happening here see, never a day without fear…It’s here!
Calm me down, I have to share before the world I stand declared. Hear these words at the end of the day come never a moment too soon. or late.
Man! You had it all your own way, Now, salvaging blocks of decay. Clean the scene; Change machines!
4.Automation Horrorscope
Webs of concrete giving off waste dust that marks the search of an age of a thousand vast empires, Sweeping away legends untold to human ears. While shafts of steel clutch the stars, natural supplies…once numerous..now lapse into eerie silence. Recycled energy becomes the only form of life as it was… now new forms are molded from patterns already used in a struggle to survive!
You had me thinking that I lost my mind but no, it was you. Thought you’d make it to a better time ’til now, but it’s through.
Your castles made of sand hold out your helpless hands going down down down down down down down They take it all then take much more…today, no man could ever realize his mistakes,
They will help you one step down… sit back… and watch you drown going down down down Going down down down down down down
5. Recycling
Here, there, new wonders gently steal, disguised distorted like moonlit seas …and I see you’ve taken all you need, queue up, don’t fear there’s mans new fortune here…you hear.
Song-birds, recycling, the same old tune, Still you slave onwards, ’till all is used. …tho’ I’ll see you’ll get the life you need, queue up don’t fear, it’s the man who brought you here…you hear.
6. Flight To Reality
You live in stainless forts, with glass walls around, Fight against recourses with your head in the ground,
A nation’s urgent need fulfils anothers greed going down down down down down down down Fly across the concrete jungle high in the clouds Looking up to crystal mountains so proud.
No need to wonder why nature slowly dies going down down down Going down down down down down down down.
7. Unendless Imagination?
Do you see? Do you see? Do you do you see? Do you see? Do you see the ruins of a life gone by? Built upon by burning towers lighting the sky, Imagine you’re the prince of eagles tears in your eyes, Do you see there’s not much time before we go down down… down down down down
Side two
1. Sao Paulo Sunrise
Dream, away on the waves, using the money you’ve saved, Our work is done, we’ll bathe in the sun gonna take a trip let’s fly down to Rio. Some solitude is all that we need, deserted beach were the air is do free-o.
2. Costa Del Sol
Cares cast aside see the seas calm and wide. Small isle, virgin paradise, Warm smiles floating in the tides.
Find some desolate place now it’s out of the way Soon, through words passed by mouth, Friends are crowding you out,
Same place natures changed its face, Warm smiles stretching out for miles. Searching in haste Finding refuse and waste
3. Marvellous Moses
Never thought had ever get his metal boat to fly in the air, Moses did it… With a string at each end, We nearly all died when he tugged and he sighed saying you are the fools, Moses did it… With his hair tied to his shoes.
Come around here they say youve got something to hide. Ive never met a man like Moses with so much time. Come around here they say youve got something to hide. Ive never met a man like Moses with so much time. Moses had a thought to put another hill on a mountain, Moses did it… With a spoon in each hand. To our surprise Moses closed up his eyes saying show me no rules, Moses did it… With his arms tied to his side.
Come around here they say youve got something to hide. Ive never met a man like Moses with so much time.
Come around here they say youve got something to hide. Ive never met a man like Moses with so much time.
Came the great day Moses tried to drink a lake for a penny Moses did it… O man, he looked heavy He walked around all day saying Ive got so much pain, give me a shove, Moses did it… Tourist attraction!
4. Its all over
Come tomorrow Im going to be the one that you will follow. Your world is so upside down cos its all over now.
Take the high road and youll take the low one, see it all through those passing hours, These moments seem so inside out its all over now… Its all over!
See the daytime youve seen the darkness Im torn apart through those many changes. A feeling that youll understand, Its all over now.
See me walking and hear me talking. Ill guide you all through those endless ages. Your world was so upside down but its all over now. Its all over. A feeling that youll understand its all over
Then, as it was, then again it will be
And though the course may change sometimes
Rivers always reach the sea
Behind skies of fortune, each has gentle rain
On the wings of maybe, downy birds of prey
Kind of makes me feel sometimes, didnt have to go
But as the eagle leaves the nest, it’s got so far to go
Changes fill my time, baby, thats alright with me
In the midst I think of you, and how it used to be
Did you ever really need somebody, and really need em bad
Did you ever really want somebody, the best something you ever had
Do you ever remember me, baby, did it feel so good
Cause it was just the first time, and you knew you would
Dewy eyes now sparkle, senses grown keen
Taste your love along the way, see your feathers preen
Kind of makes me feel sometimes, didnt have to go
We are eagles of a nest, the nest is in our soul
Vixen in my dreams, with great surprise to me
Never thought Id see your face the way it used to be
Oh darlin, oh darlin
Im never gonna leave you. I never gonna leave
Holdin on, ten years gone
Ten years gone, holdin on, ten years gone…
