    Hum  | 
  
Slowly, slowly all fall down
    A blindfold dance and a 1,2,3
    No mistake where they always emphasize security
    Draw the curtains, shut the door, the heater's on
    I couldn't ask for more
    I pull the sheets right overhead
    Snuggle, snuggle safe in bed
Take the wight right off my shoulder
    Misery claims much too late
    Bow the head or grip the sabre
    Vermichten regenerate
    Bright eyed young inherit all
    treading down upon the fallen
    They was drawn towards the Hum
    Plenty more where they come from.
Slowly, slowly all fall down
    A blindfold dance and a 1,2,3
    Swarm upset the gentle lamb
    A hive don't hold no humble bee!
    Slowly, slowly, out it came,
    Tendencies that weren't the same
    And they were drawn towards the Hum
    Plenty more where We come from.
  
Back to square one, and the old school backfire
    It's just begun, let's watch the blind eyes turning
    Stains on the wall, been waiting far too long now
    Nice day, blue sky, I watch them shrug their shoulders
    Tighten the grip (getting tighter)
    Now see the ball is rolling
    We take delight, it's been a long wait for this moment.
Back to square one, another empire backfire
    Back to square one, another empire backfire
SIgn of the time, blood pressure running high now
    Nowhere to dance, which channel can you turn to?
    We take delight, we watch them shrug their shoulders
    Let's take delight, it's been a long wait for this moment.
Back to square one (now it's my turn)
    Another Empire backfire
    Back to square one (now it's your turn)
    And the old school backfire...
  
Idle toying, worship the whore,
    Forbidden was bidden,
    kiss turned to gnaw
    Indolent minds, broken rules
    The grey land is falling,
    Laugh at the fools
    We have Joy - We have Joy!
We was drunk, intoxicate
    No time for doubt, no time, no late
    I saw the laughing one - this was the West
    he said "take your spear and puncture the flesh"
    We have Joy! - We have Joy!
We was drunk, intoxicate
    No time for doubt, no time, no late
    Brandish the weapon, Sound out the din
    We feeling red now - time to move in
    We have Joy - We have Joy!
  
Take a walk to the new town, take a look around
    Pretty road names pass us by, a foundation sound
    They paint their walls and ceilings white to feel clean inside
    Ten square miles so synchronized I could have cried
And the bodies go by barely half awake
    Awaiting things to come again, nice things to come
    It's such a nice environment I'm in
    I wonder why I'm here and the bodies go by barely half awake.
All but the few ever notice anything at all, Oh dear
    All but the few ever notice anything at all.
I've got a nice new wristwatch with a bright red strap
    The second hand really moves quite fast - I'd never thought of that
    And then I pick my picture book to compensate outside
    It's back to fiction once again, I could have cried.
And the bodies go by barely half awake
    Awaiting things to come again, nice things to come
    It's such a nice environment I'm in
    I wonder why I'm here and the bodies go by barely half awake.
All but the few ever notice anything at all, Oh dear
    All but the few ever notice anything at all
  
There was a rhyme that wasn't a rhyme
    In a time that wasn't a time
    There was a place that wasn't a place
    There was a race that wasn't a race
But I lived in a city no-one knew
    Thousands of people, indecisions
    Chained in by sorrow everyone
    Started to wonder how it all begun
    Waiting for leaders to lead them to pens
    Queues went for miles and millions to come
    Fall of because write us a few
    Friend kept complaining and joined the queue!
Still was a place that wasn't a place
    Still a race that wasn't a race
    Had to find it, it wasn't 'round here
    Such a thought - a simple idea
    Long hall and benches, flesh on the spit
    Music was playing, wine to drink
    Women of scarlet, faces of flame
    Laughter and argue, ever the same
  
Attack behind attack
    A war behind a war
    Wise thoughts to broad horizons
    A nation, the very least
    Such simplicity, advance to find myself
    He didn't see such simplicity
Hope is for the loser
    Certainty to be
    Pleasure of the winner
    Certainty to be
    Take now or stay the same!

Extreme nature panic plays anothertune
    Drastic measures taken round by all
    Four years - four minutes still turns my insides out
    I can't help thinking of the cowering families
    Inside the hatred builds
    Spit out the contents later
    So we can - Have a nice day now
I had a word with the old man at the gate
    Recollections, anticipated days
    The poor old cloth capped man had problems
    Fitting in pitch fork victories in the next campaign
    And down his garden path he stopped dead in his tracks
    I saw the old man's face so sad
Extreme nature panic plays anothertune
    Drastic measures taken round by all
    Four years - four minutes still turns my insides out
    I can't help thinking of the cowering families
    Inside the hatred builds
    Spit out the contents later
    So we can - Have a nice day now
  
Land of - better change your tune now
    Milk and - oh so negative
    Honey - and we're so content now
    Land of - Land of Milk and Honey
And you never even know when it's standing right before you
    'Cos always watching the detective film about
    How it's not on 93rd Street always misses golden opportunities
Land of - better change your tune now
    Milk and - oh so negative
    Honey - and we're so content now
    Land of - Land of Milk and Honey
One up three to go, all the hidden motives
    Like daytime airplay - hah- cocktail Saturday
    And the silver disc upon the wall means success
    So they tell me
Land of - better change your tune now
    Milk and - oh so negative
    Honey - and we're so content now
    Land of - Land of Milk and Honey
Change the tune now, sales go dwindle
    Change the subject next new single
    Change the tune now, sales go dwindle
    Change the subject next new single
Land of Milk and Honey
    Land of - Milk and Honey
    Land of.
Bright clothes and smiles and we'll talk sunshine
    Although the light bulb's dim
    And my beach ball is getting dusty
    And the fun wears thin - thin.
    It's much the same everywhere
    Diversions right and we're ready to dance
Complacency seemed to kill the cat
    Curiosity led me on
    On what foundation is your pedestal built
    The great architect to a tower block
    And Uncle Sam says it's not long now
    And we can play our way
    My Marvel comic says a hawkheaded man
    Led to a brighter day
    It's much the same everywhere
    We're getting ready and we're ready to dance
Happy, so happy, I just accept the way things are
    I'll stick to songs - that's real
    So happy
    La la la la aah
