Hi Paul,
thanks for the transcript - I used it to post lyrics on web including the
links contained in the album cover.
It can be found here: http://www.killingjoke.cz/?display=lyrics.mmxii
If someone would be able to deliver lyrics for New Uprising and/or Penny
Drops, it would be great.
Cheers
Lennonka

> Pole Shift
>
> It doesn't really matter if the south turns north
> Or the stars above stop in their course
> If ten thousand coastal cities are taken by the wave, or not
> The outcomes are still the same (for all of us now!)
> Riddles in stone – great cycles of time
> Forgotten, ignored – the ancient paradigm
> A polarisation of values happening
> Opposing camps define themselves and pull apart
>
> Night turns to day, darkness to light
> A doorway opens to quantum sight
> A world age shift, a converging sun
> A field energy reversal has begun
> Suddenly it hit! - Pole shift
>
> Now the pendulum has swung the other way
> Pulling us out of our ingrained habits
> The death of the old world
> Slashing open the womb that held us all
> So comfortably for so long
> Calling on all of us to restore the biosphere
> Towards a partnership of co-creation
> In a relationship of resonance
> Hand in had we march into the unknown
>
> Where the taboos of today are tomorrow's delights
> Our values – inverted (so wrong it's right!)
> Sex morality imposition – all swept away
> In one great orgasm – by the light of day
> Communion with the stars – decode our DNA
> Marvel at the mysteries of quantum immortality
> Children in Elias – come!
> Into a fifth world and a sixth sun
> Yes, into a fifth world and a sixth sun
> Suddenly it hit – Pole shift
>
>
> FEMA Camp
>
> It's a time of unrest and your rights are suspended
> There's a list going 'round (and it's likely you're on it)
> The names on the blue list are picked up later
> And the red list goes to the incinerator
> We're never going to end up in the furnace of the FEMA camp
> There's an Amtrak raid leading to the siding
> Where a turnstile waits for all those disembarking
> Red zone, blue zone – humanity fades
> So I'm going to join up with the renegades
>
>
> Rapture
>
> Nothing is real – all is illusion
> Escape from the flesh – transcend the earthly
> With fire and chant – purification
> Between the worlds is this state of grace – called Rapture
>
> Revitalise – to the ecstatic!
> Re-energise – recharge batteries
> Liberations of incarnations
> Liberate with spasms, convulsions
> Let every breath and act have meaning!
> Leap Icarus! (O great grain of sand) with certainty – into the abyss
> - Rapture
>
>
> Colony Collapse
>
> Rapid inhuman advance of nano computer technology
> Changing our emotional development
> For the lure of immortality
> And a virus counts as life in the post-human dream
> The future doesn't need us
> Beloved Mother intervene
>
> Colony Collapse
>
> A rupture in the fabric of human history,
> self-assembling nanobots and human fallibility
> Misprogrammed to replicate us
> A grey goo of nano sea
>
>
> Corporate Elect
>
> Grand Masters pulling strings
> Wet dream of a new world order
> Neo-feudal blueprints rise
> We all got fooled again
>
> It's an ADD Generation
> Everybody accepts the re-introduction of slavery
> - By the corporate elect
>
> Tyrant of me and mine, dominion over our lives
> Condemned to Solomon's mine
> We all got fooled again
>
> This is the fight back now
> Free speech put to the test by immoral psychopaths
> We all got fooled again
>
>
> In Cythera
>
> For all those things I should have said while I had the time
> You who stood by me when I lost the plot
> You were always kind
>
> Through the spoils and joys
> Through my anger and the endless blame
> Enduring my addictions
> Yet the love you showed still remained the same
>
> I'm grateful for all the times we shared
> Through struggles and madness you're there
>
> I've seen you in a dream on a sunny day
> Where the skies are clear, I'll see you in Cythera
> On an island far away from here
>
> If I don't return before your time is up
> I'll set your place upon the table
> With wine I'll fill your cup and to ourselves we lie
> As we break down inside
> Because we never said enough how much we really loved
>
>
> Primobile
>
> Songs of joy and sorrow echo expressions of unity
> Rejoice in precious moments – chants and sounds of purity
> Separated from each other yet bounded by time as one
> Past hurts forgiven now we recognise what's done is done
>
> Beyond the veil in dreams we fly, to soar again and then to die
> Weeping at disaster – choirs of endless tears
> Holy is the laughter that overcomes all your fears
>
> Will all our deeds be sung of – remembered with loving praise?
> And did we overcome the shadow – confront the inner rage?
> And did we fight with courage and make the world a better place?
> And have we planted forests and tilled the soil for the human race?
>
>
> Glitch
>
> Cities on blackout
> Satellites are knocked out
> I-phone, laptops, one big belly flop
> Servers, TV, alarms and security
> - everything's gone in seconds
>
> Cars are all crashing, planes are all grounded
> Everyone knows it's over
> Borders on lock down
> Everything on shut down, this way of life is over
>
> The solar storms have come and chaos rules outside
> The freezer's broke, the food is off, the GPS has died
>
> Communications have all gone down and the world is flying blind
> Everyone's at boiling point (and no-one's got the ice)
> Glitch, get ready for the glitch
>
> Where's my light, my water, my flight across the pond?
> Where's my summer holiday – what the hell's gone wrong?
> The economy is doomed
> - infrastructure ruined (everyone knows it's over)
> It's an aberration, they're working on the back-up
> It's an aberration, it's just a minor hiccup
> But everyone knows it's over
>
>
> Trance (In The Fields Of Light)
>
> Recognition, anamnesis, deja vu, oblique psychosis
> Familiar faces, signs and signals – crossing points, magnetic fields
> Music based on cyclic collapse – calendars that mark the moon
> Nocturnal emissions wax – transmission from the Vortex room
>
> A trance (in the fields of light)
>
> Wonder and amazement at the synchronised coincidence
> Binding us through all the decades – predetermined providence
> Souls fed by cosmic fire
> Early delights – all things of sense gather at this crossing point
> (I'm overcome with reverence)
>
> Implanted upon this planet (starseed was our genesis)
> Pyramids and obelisks unconsciously reminding us
> Sky beings and balls of light
> Myth and legend learned anew
> Geometrical creation hidden from the common view
>
>
> On All Hallow's Eve
>
> At last, the dark years of grieving come to an end
> Old haunts and habits invoking loved ones and friends
>
> The graveyards forgotten, the churches are empty now
> I recall the times past and how much I miss you all
>
> Wake up! Reborn! Join in and celebrate
> Make noise! Wake up the great dead with reverence
>
> On all hallow's eve …
>
> Endless drumming
> Rituals to wake the dead
> Bring gifts and spirits, good wine – just cheese and some bread
> Incense of cigars and spices – pleasures we shared
> Light up the graveyards to show how much we all care
