Cars
(Single from 'The Pleasure Principle' album, 1979.)
Here in my car
I feel safest of all
I can lock all my doors
I't's the only way to live
In cars
Here in my car
I can only receive
I can listen to you
It keeps me stable for days
In cars
Here in my car
Where the image breaks down
Will you visit me, please
If I open my door
In cars
Here in my car
I know I've started to think
About leaving tonight
Although nothing seems right
In cars

Films
('The Pleasure Principle' album, 1979)
I don't like the film
I don't like the film
Play it all back
Play it all back
And I don't like the scenery
And I don't like the set, so
Pull it all down
Pull it all down
But I like the actors
And I like the show
We're so exposed
We're so exposed
Anything can happen
Anything can happen
Don't let them see
Don't let them know
And you wonder why
And you wonder why
Turn off the lights
Turn off the sound
Conversation
('The Pleasure Principle' album, 1979)
Oh it's so easy
When parts take over
My conversation
Is nothing more than lies
You're just the viewer
So cold and distant
I've no intentions
Of saying 'I love you'
My conversation
We are not gods
We are not men
We are not making claims
We are only boys
You are not strong
You are not force
You are not regular
You are just wrong
There are no faces
This is my complex
You are my picture
I call you mirrors
These are not my tears
Not my reflection
Am I a photo?
I can't remember
My conversation
Me, I Disconnect From You
('Replicas' album, 1979)
The alarm rang for days
You could tell from conversations
I was waiting by the screen
I couldn't recognise my photograph
Me, I disconnect from you
I was walking up the stairs
Something moved in silence
I could feel his mind decaying
Only inches away from me
And I disconnect from you
Please don't turn me off
I don't know what I'm doing outside
Me and the telephone that never rings
If you were me what would you do?
Me, I disconnect from you
(Added regularly to live version) - I would be a falling star...
Down In The Park
(Single from 'Replicas' album, 1979)
Down in the park
Where the machmen
Meet the machines
And play 'Kill by numbers'
Down in the park
Wit a friend called 'Five'
I was in a car crash
Or was it the war
But I've never been
Quite the same
Little white lies
Like 'I was there'
Come to 'Zom Zoms'
A place to eat
Like it was built
In one day
You can watch the humans
Trying to run
Oh look
There's a rape machine
I'd go outside
If he'd look the other way
You wouldn't believe
The things they do
Down in the park
Where the chant is
'Death, death, death'
Until the sun cries morning
Down in the park
With friends of mine
We are not lovers
We are not romantics
'We are here to serve you'
A different face
But the words never change
I Nearly Married A Human (1 & 2)
('Replicas' album, 1979 - part 2 was bonus track on 12" version of 'Down In The Park')
*Instrumental*
