Schitzophonic

(albüm: Fishing For Luckies - 1994)

And once upon a time, so pure and crystalline
The sounds would change to what the mood defined
It didn't play a role, it just said bare the soul
And then we left it up to crowd control
Without a code of dress within the fold

Then I heard somebody shout: "here is in, and now it's out
There is no exception to the rule!"
Showbiz personalities have become authorities
So take a trip, shake it home
Make a slip and the time it gets atoned
Get it in, get it out
Do it right, then there ain't no doubt
Well there ain't no doubt; being

Schizophonic, schizophonic
Schizophonic, schizophonic
Schizo...

If there's a sound you play that doesn't fit today
Why not just play the bastard anyway?
Ignore those journalists, with just one mind you miss
The only voice in what you say is yours
So don't get lost in corporate corridors

Those that wait to push the knife from the other side of life
Trying to gain some access into yours
Oh, but would you be in theirs, shouting orders from your chair?
Well, SOS, Hindenburg
Get a life from the things you've seen, not heard
Mix the colours, and watch the smoke
If they don't get it then it ain't no joke, no it ain't no joke; it's

Schizophonic, schizophonic
Schizophonic, schizophonic
Schizophonic, schizophonic
Well you're never alone with a schizophone
Well you're never alone with a schizophone

Take your time, speak your mind
Believe their politics they'll push you on under
Feel it all, with open eyes
You know it's hard to fit, you're something unusual
Be inspired, a freak with pride, it's what they'll never be
And they will come running, look at them running

Plug it in, let it out
Look around and there's a lot to shout about
Speak nothing and you are nothing
Don't be a dead man sucking on teats
While the world competes; be

Schizophonic, schizophonic
Schizophonic, schizophonic
Schizophonic, schizophonic
Well you're never alone with a schizophone
Well you're never alone with a schizophone
Well you're never alone with a schizophone
Well you're never alone with a schizophone

Take a risk from your lone time
Use it all like a mainline
Feeling restless? Supersonic?
Got a ticket, getting on it

Schizophonic, schizophonic...
