Vehicles and Animals lyrics

It's time to tear this place down
I've got the last gig on my mind
Not seen my friends in ages
Have I been left behind?
It's time to figure out why
I find myself in custody
With each and every question
Words come so easily

Fly to El Salvador
I don't know why and I don't know what for
I've seen the picture for myself
Where did that label go?
I tried it out but it didn't work so

All the energetic people they all sparkle as they're walking down the street
Can't see their faces but I've noticed that they seem to have big hands
The stage is set, is there glamour, who's got my Etnies?

Now you know that I can see you and you know that it is easy
To see me something has been on my mind, something has struck me
Kind of odd, look out for quicksand, there is high ground

There was just one at the top of a pile of one million
and she hasn't got a clue that she's become
a good samaritan
i'm just her [????] before i blink from the scene she'd run away
if i got the chance to meet her once again
what would i hear her say?
it was just one of those things i needed to deal with
it was just one of those things
it was just one of those things i needed to deal with

Lives in Edinburgh
Just across the road
Sometimes my stereo
And in my aching bones
Its on the sugar hill
And in your ring tone

Shake those windows
Sums and songs and
Beats and rhymes
And I like this blackout
It just helps to
Love those clear night skies

Just let the record play
And bring it back again
You can’t appreciate
What we were into then

In two seconds

Bring in in the new sound
make it in, oh please make it in
all i have been missing
fill me in, please fill me in

oh this is beautiful
i've got to soak it up
i've got to soak it up
oh this is beautiful
i've got to soak it up
i've got to soak it up

give me teeth that are golden
and grown up food to eat
shine, shine that light
make it in, bring it in

oh this is beautiful

There's a house at the end of the road
it's got no windows and
it's hard to see what's going on in there
there's a man and he asks you what you want
he's got no reason
but you feel like you can't just ignore what he says

imagine he's all you've got
imagine he's all you've got

there's a house at the end of the road
it's got no windows and

Oh no, gone and put my foot in it again
Think back, can't believe that it was me who said that
Last time, I promised I'd bite my tongue until I counted to ten

I said, oh it's getting hot in here,
Must be something in the atmosphere
Oh, oh, oh, oh
Oh, it's getting hot in here,
Must be something in the atmosphere
Oh, we could be laughing about it,

It's the simple things like the robots stevie g draws

and the ease with which we seem to pull those tricks

there are moments of escape for every one of us

and the beauty in the times that we create

i saw you smiling....

and i need my vehicles and animals

and i will be alright

take me back to nineteen seventy nine

so i can find my open eyes

//Mmmmmmm
mmmmmmm//
seven out a twenty one knocked down now only fourteen left to go
i didn't know that i was next in line but it is not as if i had much time
jet black all around me voices calling saying please don't go away
last thing i remember drifting down this tunnel was bright light ahead

out of nowhere it came and hit me on the head
out of nowhere

I found a rope and a rubber glove
you found some pretty stones and they had holes so you could tie them together
tie them together
tie them together

and when we spoke there was silence
cos there's no need to make a sound when you've got
smiles instead
smiles instead
smiles instead

go to dungeness
let's go to dungeness
let's go to dungeness
let's go to dungeness

You are loved and you know you are
yeah you know you know you know you are
and you know you know you know you are
you'll endure and you know you will
yeah you know you know you know you will
and you know you know you know you will

but you can't count it on your fingers
cos there's more than you think
you can't use your head to figure
cos there's much too much
for our little minds to deal with

Give it up another time never meant to overstep the line
skip across to mexico to get away from all you know
give it up another time never meant to overstep the line
skip across to mexico to get away from all you know

give it up another time never meant to overstep the line
skip across to mexico to get away from all you know

You're not the only one

I don't want to give myself away
(You're not the only one)
Just wanna go solo
(You're not the only one)

I want to give myself away
(You're not the only one)
Don't wanna go solo
(You're not the only one)
