FEEDING FRENZY
W - Garrett/Moginie
Well I'm as old as the hills
And young as the day
Nobody see things in quite the same way
computers and shovels churches and brothels
Mannequins and skeletons cities and dustbowls
Here we go here we go agian
Near the clamour of the feeding pen
New day new way all my friends can say
Cyclone fences in the cybernetic orchard
Miracle drugs discount bulk purchase
Sacred in the forest fast food in the kiosk
Cardboard dinners and the saints and the sinners
I don't want to run and hide
I've seen it all from either side
Truth and fiction must collide some day
God knows, God knows, God knows it's been fun
Ah sweet sensation the oldest temptation
Now throughout the ages we been a'turning all those pages
Now each generation you've got to choose a new location,
Got to reach out, got to sync up, build up, get up, to a stronger
foundation
God knows, God knows, God knows it's been fun
FORGOTTEN YEARS
W - Hirst/Moginie
Few of the sings of the father
Are visited upon the son
Hearts have been hard
Hands have been clenched into fists too long
Our sons need never be soldiers
Our daughters will never need guns
These are the years between
These are the years that were hard fought and won
Contracts torn at the edges
Old signatures stained with tears
Seasons of war and grace
These should not be forgotten eyras
Still it aches like tetanus
It reeks of politics
How many dreams remain?
This is a feeling too strong to contain
The hardest years, the darkest years
The roarin' years, the fallen years
These should not be forgotten years
The hardest years the wildest years
The desperate and divided years
Our shoreline was never invaded
Our country was never in flames
This is the calm we breathe
This is a feeling too strong to contain
Still it aches like tetanus
It reeks of politics
Signatures stained with tears
Who can remember, we've got to remember
The hardest years, the darkest years...
Forsaking aching breaking years
The time 'n' tested heartbreak years
These should not be forgotten years
The blinded years, the binded years
The desperate and divided years
These should not be forgotten years
Remember
