big audio dynamite - e=mc2 (lp) lyrics
[intro, spoken]
“why don’t you play us a tune, pal?”
“i don’t like music. comical little geezer. you’ll look funny when you’re fifty.”
[verse 1]
somebody i never met but in a way i know
didn’t think that you could get so much from a picture show
man dies first reel
people ask what’s the deal?
this ain’t how it’s supposed to be
don’t like no aborigine
[verse 2]
took a trip in powis square
pop star dyed his hair
no fans to scream and shout
when mobsters came to flush him out
gangland slaying underground
new ident-ty must be found
on the left bank for a while
insanity bohemian style
[chorus]
ritual, ideas, relativity
only buildings, no people, prophecy
timeslide, place to hide, nudge reality
foresight, minds wide, magic imagery, oh-ho
[verse 3]
met a dwarf that was no good
dressed like little red riding hood
bad habit taking life
calling card a six-inch knife
ran off really fast
mumbled something ’bout the past
best s-x i’ve ever seen
as if each moment was the last
drops of blood, colour slide
funeral for his bride
but it’s him who’s really dead
gets to take the funeral ride
[chorus]
ritual ideas relativity
only buildings, no people prophecy
time slide, place to hide, nudge reality
foresight, minds wide, magic imagery, oh-oh, oh-ho, oh-ho
[interlude 1]
“you know, i don’t think i’m gonna let you stay in the film business.”
“time for a change!”
“i like a bit of a cavort, i don’t send ’em solicitor’s letters. i’ll try a bit of…. pressure.”
[verse 4]
sp-ce guy fell from the sky
scratched my head and wondered why
time slides into time
across international dateline
scientist eats bubblegum
hall of fame, baseball
senator’s a hoodlum
big chiefs in the hall
[chorus]
ritual ideas relativity
only buildings, no people prophecy
time slide, place to hide, nudge reality
foresight, minds wide, magic imagery, oh-ho
[verse 5]
stray thoughts fear to tread
placed upon the screen instead
she’s my flame too hot to hold
had to settle for her cold
bloodl-st, greek god, gold discovery
gone bust, tight wad, slow recovery
axe job, flame thrower, iron bar and gun
betting shop, new owner, a walk in the sun
[chorus]
ritual, ideas, relativity
only buildings, no people, prophecy
time slide, place to hide, nudge reality
foresight, minds wide, magic imagery, oh-ho
[verse 6]
spread the news: the maestro’s back
with a beat-box soundtrack
the king of brains – queen of the sack
executives have heart attack
it’s -ssault course celluloid
the money makers would avoid
sometimes notions get reversed
centre of the universe
[chorus]
ritual, ideas, relativity
only buildings, no people, prophecy
time slide, place to hide, nudge reality
foresight, minds wide, magic imagery, oh-ho, oh-ho, oh-ho, oh-ho
[interlude]
“who do you think you are, the lone ranger?
you’re jack the lad!”
“”putting a little stick about. putting the frighteners on flash, little twerps.”
“he’s an ignorant boy. an out of date boy.”
“united we stand, divided we’re lumbered.”
“at the death, who is left holding the sodding baby?”
“i know a thing or two about the clientele. they’re a bunch of liars and wrigglers
give ’em a bit of stick.”
[chorus]
ritual, ideas, relativity
only buildings, no people, prophecy
time slide, place to hide, nudge reality
foresight, minds wide, magic imagery, oh-ho, oh-ho
ritual, ideas, relativity
only buildings, no people, prophecy
time slide, place to hide, nudge reality
foresight, minds wide, magic imagery, oh-ho, oh-ho
