XTC - Drums And Wires Lyrics
XTC - Chain Of Command Lyrics
How bright are the fires of thought
In a chain of command?
(Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh)
How bright is the medical torch
XTC - Scissor Man Lyrics
Snipping, snipping, snipping goes the scissor man
Putting end to evil doers games
Snipping, snipping, snipping goes the scissor man
Maybe you are in his book of names
XTC - Outside World Lyrics
She has six swans singing in her sauna
So she can't hear what's going on
No she can't hear what's going on
In the outside world
XTC - Making Plans for Nigel Lyrics
We're only making plans for Nigel
We only want what's best for him
We're only making plans for Nigel
Nigel just needs that helping hand
XTC - Limelight Lyrics
I'm in the limelight, no time for sun ray
We are the happening, this day is our day
I'm in the limelight, big on my block now
XTC - Helicopter Lyrics
Oh heli, oh heli
I'm crouching you with a telescope in hand
Looking out across our Lego land
XTC - When You're Near Me I Have Difficulty Lyrics
When you're near me, I have difficulty respirating
When you're near me, I have difficulty concentrating
When you're near me, I have difficulty standing upright
When you're near me, I have difficulty sleeping at night
XTC - That Is The Way Lyrics
Do this, do that, do this, do that
Go and speak
(Do this)
XTC - Ten Feet Tall Lyrics
Happy I'm floating
Around on my feet now
You make me go dizzy
I'm weak at the knees
XTC - Roads Girdle The Globe Lyrics
Am I asleep or am I fast
Your every race
You first, you last
XTC - Millions Lyrics
We smelled your soup on the fire cooking
We saw your toys and your pencils looking bright
So bright and yet they come from, oh, so far away
XTC - Life Begins At The Hop Lyrics
I have learnt there's a magical spot at the hop
Come with me to the church on the corner, the hop
There's nuts and crisps and there's c-c-cola on tap
A good time had by those boys and those girls at the hop
XTC - Day In Day Out Lyrics
Clock in my head
Clock on the wall
And the two of them
Don't agree at all
XTC - Complicated Game Lyrics
I ask myself should I put my finger to the left, no
I ask myself should I put my finger to the right, no
It doesn't really matter where I put my finger
XTC - Real By Reel Lyrics
In this secret time, invading on our privacy
Unknowing we mime, we play for the ministry
They can film you in bed or when you take a bath
They can tape every cry, they can tape every laugh
