When you see me on the street, Don’t stop to shake and greet, Sometimes I explode. I’ve lost loved ones in the past, My relationships won’t last, When I explode. All day long I stay away from gas, Submerge myself in water, Hope its just a phase that will pass. I’ll blow up, so stay away from me, The last time that it happened, I took the whole city with me. (When I explode) I’ve got burns across my arm, Never thought I’d do you harm, Until I explode. I’m not angry or upset, No emotions to forget, When I explode.

The air up here is crisp and white Its cold enough but I’m not uptight It certainly seems like a good day to die Think I’ll get hunted and my insides Ripped wide Open Cause I’m a yeti It’s what you want to rip my Myth-sides wide open I pick my berries by the edge of the cliff I pull my daises where the stems are stiff I store the carcass where the coast is clear I have seen danger But I do not fear Cause I’m a yeti I look like an australopithecine But I’ve got Man fear Behind those eyes I can’t remember The last time I mated I can’t revisit The last time I dated I can’t imagine The last time I made it Oh I really want to But there is no Craigslist For a yeti We give birth once in awhile To fully formed offspring Who don’t need a family

Down at the bottom of your brain Lives a lizard and his fear-centre’s triggered By the puncture in the neck of a goat A cadaver on the ground And not a drop of blood to be found there Just a shadow skulking in the trees Puh-lease! Tell me what you saw that night in the park Of those red eyes shining out from the dark And other lies Imagination has taken hold Too terrified to sleep at night You leave on all the lights The situation’s out of control If you tell them what you saw that night They’ll think your head ain’t right So maybe you won’t Or maybe you will Be the centre of attention When the photographers and reporters come around Taking pictures writing down all the details Of the creature you imagined that you saw Poor boy, at the precipice of reason Puh-lease! Won’t you tell me what you saw that night in the park Of those red eyes shining out from the dark And other lies Imagination has taken hold Too terrified to sleep at night You leave on all the lights The situation’s out of control If you tell them what you saw that night They’ll think your head ain’t right So maybe you will Or maybe you won’t Find El Chupacabra

I’ve been dreaming about you, I’ve got to find you Gonna find me a crystal skull Open my mind to hear your song They say they’re from another dimension They’ve got unearthly intention Hear your message from the ages Take me back to the founding mothers I’ll find you Aaaa ahhh You waited aeons hiding ‘neath temple rocks Storing memories deep inside quartz There will soon be a meeting of the thirteen Finally I’ve got you in my hands Wow, you’re so smooth Are you the thirteenth? The way you get into my head It’s so intense I’m seeing more clearly now Crystal clear Piezoelectric messaging baby Transmit the world of Mesoamericans Reverse through eras, I see the world changing Oceans parting, Atlantis rising Crystal tech brought by aliens Making new life, a race of hybrids They made us? Aaaa ahhhh Thirteen skulls gathered; a message for all Interstella communication It has long been prophecised that we are entering a new epoch, a new time. The Ancients foresaw this would be a time of change, a time for the world to heal. A time of enlightenment and spiritual growth. Harmony, healing, peace, love and hope to reign true. You should have been ready for this time but a different path has been chosen The path to your DOOM. You have failed in your obligations to this planet And frankly you’ve made a mess. Thirteen skulls collected together Cosmic crystals with awesome power Elimination is the final answer Aaaa ahhhh It’s the end of the line for all humankind Commencing annihilation Goodbye

Ernest, help me with this damn crossword will you? 5 down. 8 letters. Another word for undying. I wish you would put away that crossword Alfred and come and look at this jellyfish. That damn hydrozoan. Yeah well you say that but this little Medusa can seemingly revert back to the polypoid stage after becoming sexually mature. How does it do that? It does it through transdifferentiation. Are you talking about cell regeneration? That’s exactly what I’m talking about. But wait… Hang on…2 problems…1 day…solved? Look at your crossword. Its immortal. Well I’m a jellyfish. Smooth to the touch but I don’t look much. Hey you scientists. Heard you speaking bout my secrets you been seeking can’t come soon enough. Well baby there’s no rush. Here’s some education. Yeah I’m a jellyfish. Technically tiny but sexually mature. Now I’m a kid again. So on and on and back and forth and on and on and back and forth. (It’s a fact) And forth and back. Transdifferentiation. Hey Alfred I’m starting to think that these things could be dangerous. Yes theoretically if they are immortal they could just keep spreading around the world. Absolutely nothing to stop them…it’s a kind of… Silent invasion? Exactly. Eurgh that one’s doing it. They are at it right now. He is looking at me funny. That one just winked at me. Now we’re the jellyfish. Monogamy is not meant for the immortal. So study this. Making waves with the dames, making ripples in the water ohhhhh Splash Ohh Splash Now you’re talking. Woah Splash Uh Splash Uh splash all over my body. You’ll get chills coz we’re multiplying. Stick your equations here’s a silent invasion. Hang on a minute. What? You know they are supposed to be immortal? Yeah well they are supposed to be. Well what happens if you stamp on them? Brilliant let’s stamp on one. Toss me that one there. Here you are. Hoho immortal my arse. Look how dead that is! Hang on I am going to go and get my tennis racket. Oh get me one too. Ok lets play jelly tennis. Your serve. It’s dead! Let’s throw them at the fan. Brilliant look at that. I dare you to snort one. Ok. Ernie look at me, I’ve got one on my head. Hahaha. What’s going on? We were wrong all along. We’re dying. I am going to piss on one. If you let us go home. We’ll leave you alone. No multiplying. I’ll tell you what. What Ernie? Do you think we got maybe eat one? I will if you will. I’m up for it. Let’s eat them. Let’s eat them and see what happens. Its science isn’t it? Look what we’ve done We’ve eaten you And now we are immortal too No dying. Now we got chills that are multiplying Because of the power that you’re supplying It’s electrifying.

Eyes looking up and to the left. Widening, widening. See how the hands move. Frequent touching of the hair. Sudden flare of the left nostril upon and unexpected question. The smell of roses, ketchup, eggs. Shakes hand extremely firmly. Asks few questions. Wears white socks. Eats the meat before the vegetables. Puts hand in left pocket when meeting new people Crosses legs at the knees Uses exclamation marks in emails. Under “Religion”, states “Atheist”. Never gonna be a way Away from me to you.Widening, widening. See how the hands move. Frequent touching of the hair. Sudden flare of the left nostril upon and unexpected question.

Where are you? Please don’t run away I just want to know you Bloop, bloop, bloop. What does this mean? What are you trying to tell me? Do not fear me, mysterious creature. I will not put you up in a feature. Do not worry. You will not be sorry Help me understand So I may bring your legacy to my land Bloop… Bloop… Bloop I understand, you’re scared. Bloop… Bloop… Bloop Do not fear me, I will not hurt you Bloop… Bloop… Bloop Bloop I understand, you’re scared. Bloop… Bloop… Bloop Do not fear me, they will not hurt you Why must you run, [N3] when I spend all day in the sun, looking for you, in this dark blue sea Bloop… Bloop… Bloop I understand, you’re scared. Bloop… Bloop… Bloop Do not fear them, they will not see you Bloop… Bloop… Bloop I understand, you’re scared. Bloop.. Bloop.. Bloop Do not fear them, they will not find you Finally I see, you trusted me I will not let you down. You’re beautiful, so please stay free. Everything I thought you could be, Finally revealed to me. You’re beautiful Farewell.

In his right hand a prayer-book – strange words from his mouth Take him in or hang him in your chimney, liebe herr Taught to write and learned to love – enigma of the town Now you have both thoughts and wishes – say them in your prayers I want to be a rider I want to be a rider As my father was – (whoever he may be) [spoken] Here lies Kaspar Hauser – riddle of his time His birth was an enigma – his death a wilful crime In the care of a jailer – twelve years in the gloom Dispossessed of intelect, rocking in the dark Bitter poison in his water – strangers in his room They cut his nails and guide his hands, and never touch his heart I want to be a rider I want to be a rider As my father was – (whoever he may be) Here lies Kaspar Hauser – riddle of his time His birth was an enigma – his death a wilful crime Break him down, take him down To the limits of one man’s desperation All you gave – suddenly taken away From birth to the grave You denied and betrayed his rightful name

I found you in the longleaf pines Stood still with a staring mouth Wide eyes, unmoved by my advance I couldn’t leave you there How did I find A form so fair So far removed from me Too far to dare Under pretext of measurements And samples to catalogue I marvel, I crave, I despair Bound by a beauty immeasurable How did I find A form so fair An unexpected love That can’t be shared I couldn’t show You’ll never know I had to set you back down Worlds can’t collide I left you behind The feeling inside’s alien to me

about

For this album we explored the worlds frequented by the wondrous Arthur C Clarke in many popular hardback books of the 70s and 80s alongside popular unsolved tricksy tales of ethereal happenings.

The theme for our latest album is Spielberg. Enjoy! ... more
