[00:00.00][Lovers' Leap]
[00:00.66] Walking across the sitting-room, I turn the television off.
[00:07.92] Sitting beside you, I look into your eyes.
[00:15.25] As the sound of motor cars fades in the night time,
[00:22.19] I swear I saw your face change, it didn't seem quite right.
[00:28.81] ...And it's hello babe with your guardian eyes so blue
[00:37.16] Hey my baby don't you know our love is true.
[00:52.47] Coming closer with our eyes, a distance falls around our bodies.
[01:00.68] Out in the garden, the moon seems very bright,
[01:06.76] Six saintly shrouded men move across the lawn slowly.
[01:13.89] The seventh walks in front with a cross held high in hand.
[01:20.49] ...And it's hey babe your supper's waiting for you.
[01:29.24] Hey my baby, don't you know our love is true.
[01:37.14] I've been so far from here,
[01:40.58] Far from your warm arms.
[01:44.80] It's good to feel you again,
[01:50.43] It's been a long long time. Hasn't it?
[03:48.41][The Guaranteed Eternal Sanctuary Man]
[03:53.84] I know a farmer who looks after the farm.
[04:00.74] With water clear, he cares for all his harvest.
[04:11.31] I know a fireman who looks after the fire.
[04:23.91] You, can't you see he's fooled you all.
[04:35.73] Yes, he's here again, can't you see he's fooled you all.
[04:45.59] Share his peace,
[04:47.00] Sign the lease.
[04:48.72] He's a supersonic scientist,
[04:52.57] He's the guaranteed eternal sanctuary man.
[04:57.99] Look, look into my mouth he cries,
[05:08.37] And all the children lost down many paths,
[05:14.05] I bet my life you'll walk inside
[05:18.41] Hand in hand,
[05:19.83] gland in gland
[05:21.41] With a spoonful of miracle,
[05:25.16] He's the guaranteed eternal sanctuary.
[05:32.08] We will rock you, rock you little snake,
[05:36.44] We will keep you snug and warm.
[05:43.03][Ikhnaton And Itsacon And Their Band Of Merry Men]
[06:08.85] Wearing feelings on our faces while our faces took a rest,
[06:14.80] We walked across the fields to see the children of the West,
[06:20.07] But we saw a host of dark skinned warriors
[06:22.09] standing still below the ground,
[06:32.96] Waiting for battle.
[06:48.40] The fight's begun, they've been released.
[06:51.70] Killing foe for peace...bang, bang, bang. Bang, bang, bang...
[07:02.24] And they're giving me a wonderful potion,
[07:05.89] 'Cos I cannot contain my emotion.
[07:14.26] And even though I'm feeling good,
[07:17.37] Something tells me I'd better activate my prayer capsule.
[08:31.67] Today's a day to celebrate, the foe have met their fate.
[08:45.84] The order for rejoicing and dancing has come from our warlord.
[09:38.95][How Dare I Be So Beautiful?]
[09:50.61] Wandering through the chaos the battle has left,
[09:56.89] We climb up a mountain of human flesh,
[10:03.76] To a plateau of green grass, and green trees full of life.
[10:17.33] A young figure sits still by a pool,
[10:23.30] He's been stamped "Human Bacon" by some butchery tool.
[10:30.62] (He is you)
[10:43.67] Social Security took care of this lad.
[10:50.29] We watch in reverence, as Narcissus is turned to a flower.
[11:01.52] A flower?
[11:02.48][Willow Farm]
[11:05.32] If you go down to Willow Farm,
[11:07.66] to look for butterflies, flutterbyes, gutterflies
[11:14.24] Open your eyes, it's full of surprise, everyone lies,
[11:18.76] like the fox on the rocks,
[11:23.15] and the musical box.
[11:27.19] Oh, there's Mum & Dad, and good and bad,
[11:30.12] and everyone's happy to be here.
[11:35.64] There's Winston Churchill dressed in drag,
[11:37.77] he used to be a British flag, plastic bag, what a drag.
[11:44.33] The frog was a prince, the prince was a brick, the brick was an egg,
[11:49.17] the egg was a bird.
[11:50.69] (Fly away you sweet little thing, they're hard on your tail)
[11:53.73] Hadn't you heard?
[11:55.20] (They're going to change you into a human being!)
[11:58.10] Yes, we're happy as fish and gorgeous as geese,
[12:00.72] and wonderfully clean in the morning.
[12:05.12] We've got everything, we're growing everything,
[12:09.72] We've got some in
[12:10.90] We've got some out
[12:11.97] We've got some wild things floating about
[12:16.41] Everyone, we're changing everyone,
[12:19.95] you name them all,
[12:21.01] We've had them here,
[12:22.19] And the real stars are still to appear.
[12:28.15] ALL CHANGE!
[12:29.57] Feel your body melt;
[12:31.54] Mum to mud to mad to dad
[12:34.02] Dad diddley office, Dad diddley office,
[12:37.07] You're all full of ball.
[12:38.48] Dad to dam to dum to mum
[12:40.76] Mum diddley washing, Mum diddley washing,
[12:43.61] You're all full of ball.
[12:45.56] Let me hear you lies, we're living this up to the eyes.
[12:48.12] Ooee-ooee-ooee-oowaa
[12:59.48] Momma I want you now.
[13:04.93] And as you listen to my voice
[13:07.63] To look for hidden doors, tidy floors, more applause.
[13:13.54] You've been here all the time,
[13:16.48] Like it or not, like what you got,
[13:18.39] You're under the soil (the soil, the soil),
[13:22.69] Yes, deep in the soil (the soil, the soil, the soil, the soil!).
[13:27.10] So we'll end with a whistle and end with a bang
[13:29.83] and all of us fit in our places.
[14:18.76][Apocalypse In 9/8 (Co-Starring the delicious talents of Gabble Ratchet)]
[15:35.50] With the guards of Magog, swarming around,
[15:42.47] The Pied Piper takes his children underground.
[15:48.14] Dragons coming out of the sea,
[15:54.16] Shimmering silver head of wisdom looking at me.
[16:00.33] He brings down the fire from the skies,
[16:06.29] You can tell he's doing well by the look in human eyes.
[16:10.08] Better not compromise.
[16:11.40] It won't be easy.
[18:50.33] 666 is no longer alone,
[18:56.70] He's getting out the marrow in your back bone,
[19:01.47] And the seven trumpets blowing sweet rock and roll,
[19:08.79] Gonna blow right down inside your soul.
[19:13.95] Pythagoras with the looking glass reflects the full moon,
[19:20.28] In blood, he's writing the lyrics of a brand new tune.
[20:09.09] And it's hey babe, with your guardian eyes so blue,
[20:19.87] Hey my baby, don't you know our love is true,
[20:27.60] I've been so far from here,
[20:31.69] Far from your loving arms,
[20:36.34] Now I'm back again, and babe it's gonna work out fine.
[20:47.69][As Sure As Eggs Is Eggs (Aching Men's Feet)]
[20:49.82] Can't you feel our souls ignite
[20:58.57] Shedding ever changing colours, in the darkness of the fading night,
[21:10.90] Like the river joins the ocean, as the germ in a seed grows
[21:19.42] We have finally been freed to get back home.
[21:29.27] There's an angel standing in the sun, and he's crying with a loud voice,
[21:43.98] "This is the supper of the mighty one",
[21:49.96] Lord of Lords,
[21:51.78] King of Kings,
[21:53.71] Has returned to lead his children home,
[21:58.68] To take them to the new Jerusalem.
