Lyrics

Wire

Turns and Strokes

Lorries

I'm mourning the passing of a moment
A blackout silence uneasily [asled?]
I cannot forgive your tears as an answer
Or is this an excuse for your selfishness?

I came, it was so
I want two to go

Irrational in the extreme
It makes such perfect sense
I'm just at that lost moment
I'm cold without regret

The Spare One

[I never felt that?]
Reveals much to a mind that's closed
It holds a fragile head
In tender care
Don't be so worried
You're one who should be spared
You're one who should be spared

Don't be so worried
You're one who should be spared
The embarrassment
[The pain needed to uncover?]
Because I say I love you
And then you're silent
[How I adore your islands?]
[How I adore your islands?]
You're one who should be spared

Over my Head

[I had to come down my way?]
[In hot water sticking around the bush?]
That's because [?]
Out of my head, over my head
[It was my mistake?]
[I thought before I took into the air?]
[?]
Out of my head, over my head
[I've got all my priorities strange?]
[They're coming home to roost anytime?]
[We made our afflicted?]
[When we dropped our arms?]
[I wouldn't be here tonight?]
Out of my head, over my head
[There's nothing missing?]
I thought before I took to the air
[?]
Out of my head, over my head

Part of our History

Green jungle, the uneventual
In which the specimen grows
We sing and we dance as we go
Sing and dance as we go up the saga so
Adorning your bodies with ornaments
Protecting your borders with armaments
We sing and we dance as we go
We sing and we dance in the [?]
Adorning your bodies with ornaments
They loosen your love of armaments
You sing and dance as we go
You sing and dance as we go
They downed the quotations
We move the trees
It all becomes part of our history
We sing and dance as we go
We sing and dance in the [?]
We sing and dance as we go
We sing and dance as we are
