I had a soul transplant operation
Coz my bypass didn't function
So now I'm keeping on my toes
'Til I see your one man show
Show me magic
Show me magic
Show me magic
Show me mad
Wouldn't it be nice to know
What the paper doesn't show
What the TV doesn't say
And what my hamster's ate today?
Show me magic
Show me magic
Show me magic
Show me mad
God! Show me magic
God! Show me magic
God! Show me magic
God! Show me mad
Show me magic
Show me magic
Show me magic

[Bunf:]
Hamster, turnin' round in your wheel
I've got something to tell you:
I can harness your feel
Dynamo for electricity
You empower my feelings
Give me light for me to see
[Stavros:]
So won't you give me some food?
I really need to get some energy in me
Give me some
I really need to get some energy in me
Give me some
The world is turning, kicking, screaming 'round my little head
To spread it on my bread
Don't you know that I spread it on my bread?
[Bunf:]
Rest yourself you've been long on your feet
If I buy you a matchbox
Will you keep it all neat?
Radiate, you're no flash in the pan
You're the battery incarnate
I'm an innocent man
[Stavros:]
So won't you give me some food?
I really need to get some energy in me
Give me some
I really need to get some energy in me
Give me some
The world is turning, kicking, screaming 'round my little head
To spread it on my bread

First time, I did it for the hell of it
Stuck it on the back of my tongue
And then swallowed it
Second time, things are getting easier
Blow me down this wind is getting breezier
Third time lucky, made me feel fuzzy
Oh my God, we're getting hippy-dippy
Five, six, seven, man I'm in heaven
And I'm growing my beard
Before it gets sheared
You're on my mind
Every day and every night
And you'll never go away
Coz I know you're here to stay
For the rest of my mind (X2)
First time, I did it for the hell of it
Stuck it right up
And that was the end of it
Second time, things are getting easier
Hairs on the back of my neck are getting stickier
Third time unlucky, perversely bloody
Doctor I'm ill please pass me the brandy
Five, six, seven I heard George Foreman say:
Slow horses loose
Fast women frighten
You're on my mind
Every day and every night
And you'll never go away
Coz I know you're here to stay
For the rest of my mind (X2)
I just keep repeating myself (X6)
Aaaah yeah, coz you're on my mind
Every day and every night
And you'll never go away
Coz I know you're here to stay
For the rest of my mind
On my mind
Every day and every night
And you'll never go away
Coz I know you're here to stay
For the rest of my mind
On my mind
Every day and every night
And you'll never go away
Coz I know you're here to stay

Locked in a sorry dream
You know we're drowning in designer ice cream
I scream: This is the present but it's no surprise
Then I realise
(To see you, to see you, to see you)
What I see I spies
(Nice to see you, to see you, to see you)
The past was eagle eyed
(To see you, nice to see you, to see you, to see you)
The future's pixelised
(To see you, nice to see you, to see you, to see you, to see you)
I had my frisbee sharpened and honed
I had it galvanised and chromed
Decapitate and bury your toys
My frisbee brings the noise
(To see you, to see you, to see you)
What I see I spies
(Nice to see you, to see you, to see you)
The past was eagle eyed
(To see you, nice to see you, to see you, to see you)
The future's pixelised
(To see you, nice to see you, to see you, to see you, to see you)
To see you, to see you, to see you, nice to see you
(Wipe your windscreen with a chocolate cake)
To see you, to see you, to see you, nice to see you
(Count your pizzas before they bake)
To see you, to see you, to see you, nice to see you
(Wipe your windscreen with a chocolate cake)
To see you, to see you, to see you
(Count your pizzas before they bake)
To see you, to see you, to see you, nice to see you
(Wipe your windscreen with a chocolate cake)
To see you, to see you, to see you, nice to see you
(Count your pizzas before they bake)
To see you, to see you, to see you
(Wipe your windscreen with a chocolate cake)
To see you, to see you, to see you, nice to see you

I was lost
Lost on the bypass road
Could be worse
I could be turned to toad
Won't you take me back to my hometown?
Take me back before I break down
I say you please return me
Will you ever return me?
Will you ever return me?
Just like Frankie Fontaine (X2)
I wonder what can I do?
I was found
Riding a unicorn
Could be worse
I could be backwards born
Won't you take me back to my hometown?
Take me back before I break down
Will you ever return me?
Will you ever return me?
Will you ever return me?
Just like Frankie Fontaine
I say you please return me
Will you ever return me?
Will you ever return me?
Just like Frankie Fontaine
I wonder what can I do?
Calm down and then leave me alone (X4)
I say you please return me
Will you ever return me?
Will you ever return me?
Just like Frankie Fontaine (X2)

Lost capacity
For infinity
You and me are idly
Gathering moss
Fields of industry
Death by misery
You and I are idly
You and me are idly
Gathering moss
False security
Faked insanity
You and I united by
Itemized bills
Kills my sympathy
Builds my agony
You and me are idly
You and I are idly
Gathering moss
But when you see me
I'll be idly sweeping
The dust away
(Dust away)
Look here comes the shore again
And we'll aim there to be merry
You and I are idly
You and I are idly
You and me
Gathering moss
You and me
Gathering moss

If you don't want me to destroy you
Take a leaf out of my book:
Turn it 'round and have a look
Because I don't want you to destroy me
I'll commit myself to be
In and out of every tree
Gravity
You just hold me down so quietly
You just hold me back
When the insects fly all around you
Do you reach and aim a hit?
Or do you lie around a bit?
And when the animals gather 'round you
Do you ask them for the time?
Or do you run away and whine?
Gravity
You just hold me down so quietly
You just hold me back
Gravity
You just hold me down so quietly
You just pull me down to Earth
Let me go into the depths of your infinity
I can sense your presence in the vicinity

Bad! Bad! Bad! Bad! Behaviour (X4)
Bad behaviour
Was my saviour
Makin' mischief
Used to make my day
Subsequently
Accidentally
I put my fist
Through a windowpane!
Bad! Bad! Bad! Bad! Behaviour (X4)
I remember
Once I had a brain
Amnesia
Never crossed my mind
Tonsillitis
Was my alibi
Truancy was
My vocation!
Bad! Bad! Bad! Bad! Behaviour (X4)

The blim holes in my shell suit
Joined into an absolute
And fell apart one day
They stitched me up in Everton
Then they took me to a surgeon:
Lost on penalties
Do do do do do do do do do do do do
Mario man (X4)
I married at the altar
The village idiots daughter
Oh! Lucky me
We honeymooned in Cyprus
That's where she caught the virus
I flew home alone
So I bought myself a chip pan
And I sailed it to the Isle of Man
For a holiday
Struggling in a vortex
With my jacket made of Gore-tex
It fits wonderfully
Do do do do do do do do do do do do
Mario man (X4)
Zap! Zap!
Wham! Wham!
Says the Mario man today
(He's played so hard he's got blisters on his fingers)
Do do do do do do do do do do do do

You and me
And the guy from the Sparks
Hanging out with Howard Marks
We're the three musketeers yeah
Gather round with your beers yeah
There's no need for the fears
Throw a penny into my plastic satellite dish
And make a wish
I wish you farewell
Buy buy! Sell sell!
I bid you goodbye
Sell sell! Sky-high! Sell sell!
Oooh oooh oooh oooh
A big fax
And a portion of lies
Washed down with a dire choke
Pass the mic to your lover
Turn around and find another
Pass the buck to your brother
Throw a penny into my plastic satellite dish
And make a wish
I bid you farewell
Buy buy! Sell sell!
I bid you goodbye
Sell sell! Sky-high! Sell sell!

Long gone
Ooo ooo ooo ooo ooo
Long gone
Ooo ooo ooo ooo ooo
Long gone
There's no shadow where you stood
So long
I would find you if I could
Long gone
Long gone
Long gone
Long gone
Long gone, long gone
Long gone
Ooo ooo ooo ooo ooo
Long gone
Ooo ooo ooo ooo ooo
Long gone
There's a distance far away
Long gone
If I believed I would pray
(La la la la la la la la la)
Long gone
Long gone
(La la la la la la la la la)
Long gone
Long gone
(La la la la la la la la la)
Long gone, long gone
Long gone
Ooo ooo ooo ooo ooo
Long gone
Ooo ooo ooo ooo ooo
(La la la la la la la la la)
Long gone
Long gone
(La la la la la la la la la)
Long gone
Long gone
(La la la la la la la la la)
Long gone, long gone
Long gone
Ooo ooo ooo ooo

It's been a funny kind of day
Sîan Lloyd says the sun will come and play
Emotive in transit, we'll be together 'til the end
We'll be together
Oh! Ho! Oh! Ho! Ho!
For now and ever
