The Only Ones?

(Hey boy) you wear lonely and hurting
(Hey boy) like the tears of a clown
(Hey boy) you’ve been diverting
(Hey boy) cause it’s a long way down / up
Ohh,
What if we’re not the only ones
To spin around a sun?
Would it change?
To know that everything you feel,
Could be only as real as it seems...
(THIS IS NOT HERE)
(Hey boy) stuck in the middle
(Hey boy) between the world and a dream
(Hey boy) chasing the circle
(Hey boy) do you know now what it means?
We are ALL naked machine
Ohh,
What if we’re not the only ones
To spin around a sun?
Would it change?
Would you go back to the start,
Would you follow your heart,
To the end?
If we were not the only ones
To walk up on a moon,
Could it be?
That everything you feel,
Is only as real as it seems
Oh,
What if we’re not the only ones
To spin around a sun?
Would it change?
Would you go back to the start,
This time follow your heart,
To the end?
If we were not the only ones
To land up on a moon,
Could it be?
That all these things you feel,
Are only as real as they seem?
(Hey boy) what if we’re not the only ones?

Lunar Theme
03:12
|

|
Under the stars we dream
Tiny, fragile, naked machine
(in?)Significant as it seems
Swaying to a lunar theme
Ahh ahh ahh ahh
Swaying to a lunar theme
Under the stars we dream
Tiny, fragile, naked machine
(in?)Significant as we seem
We’re only swaying to a lunar theme

Big Fish

Big fish, little pond,
Longs to be free
Like a minnow in the sea
Little minnow in the world beyond:
“Why does big fish envy me?”
(you’ll see!)
Big fish, little pond, go
Big fish, little pond, go
Big fish, little pond, know
You can’t forget the place
Where you come from
The blue-green algae,
Won’t sustain you
This eco-system will implode
These muddy walls,
They can’t contain you
They’ll suffocate you
Like a guppy in a jar
(Oh no!)
Big fish, little pond, go
Big fish, little pond, go
Big fish, little pond, know
You can’t forget the place
Where you come from
(go!)
Under the bridge, follow the stream,
Down the river, into the lake,
Through the canal, into the sea!
Big fish, in the sea, home
Big fish, in the sea, know
(chant under last chorus)
Swim, swim, tread, tread,
Waves are coming in overhead
Swim, swim, tread, tread,
Waves are coming in overhead
Swim, swim, tread, tread,
Waves are coming in overhead
Swim, swim, tread, tread,
Sharks all around
And they want your head!

Rainbow Road

Meet me at 20 to five,
Where dreams come to survive,
The world beyond Rainbow Road
Meet me at 20 to five,
On the other side,
Around the bend on Rainbow Road
On Rainbow Road
Half-life colors are a crime
On Rainbow Road
Happiness is doing time
Kings in leather crowns,
Queens in glitter gowns,
Mime in time to lip-synced lines
While standing at the bar,
Where loneliness is far,
Behind a glass of whisky rye
On Rainbow Road,
Half-life colors are a crime
On Rainbow Road,
Happiness is doing time
(Rainbow Road)
It’s on the other side,
If you dare to cross the line,
Where half-life colors are a crime
(Rainbow Road)
It’s on the other side,
An oasis so divine!
And everyone is happy…
'Cause happiness is doing time
(Meet us at 20 to five)
On Rainbow Road

The Science Of Dust
01:19
|

|
Hello,
Perhaps my reputation precedes me
So may I introduce to you
The Science of Dust
Un-buried.
I know,
Sometimes my trepidation defeats me
But I will carry on before eventually
The Science Of Dust
Buries me.
Entropy,
Entropy,
Entropy,
Entropy, always wins.

Siren Call
04:38
|

|
A siren call echoes in the night
And comes to you underneath electric light
Like an animal crawling through your veins
Baby chemical gonna take away the pain
Higher, falling higher
Through the lonely days
Into the never ending nights
Higher, baby higher
Where suburban dreams bleed
Into the neon light
Shadows play and dance upon the wall
Frequency, hypnotic-pulse-electric-ball
Now chemical is rushing to your brain
As the animal takes you over again
Higher, falling higher
Through the lonely days
Into the never ending nights
Higher, baby higher
Where suburban dreams
Bleed into the neon light
And when the morning comes,
Before you ever do,
Can you heed the siren calling?
You baby,
You zombie.

True Blue (lovesong)
04:34

|
Baby, I love you
I know baby, you love me too
Stardust connects us
Body and soul
And If I fly away
Like a rocket man spinning around
You’ll show me planet home
And bring me back safe and sound
True as blue, are me and you
True as blue, as we are two!
Baby you love me,
Oh, you know baby, I love you too
A strange dust connects us,
Cosmic motes entwined
As two parts whole
Ascending high above
This planet home terrain
Like a Phoenix rising up
From the ashes of the flame
True as blue, are me and you
True as blue, as we are two!
And If I fly away
Like a rocket man spinning around
You’ll show me planet home
And bring me back safe and sound
True as blue, are me and you
True as blue, as we are two!
(Stardust connects us, body and soul)
True as blue, are me and you
True as blue, baby I love you!

Bitter Pill
03:29
|
|||
|
Tonight I sit alone
With a pen in my hand
Wanting to write you a letter
About where we stand
Cause it's hard to understand
The vitriol you've spilled
Hey man, you know,
It sounds like you've taken a bitter pill
Now if this is the end
I'd rather we just say goodbye
If this is the end
I'd rather let sleeping dogs lie,
Alone
And you go your way,
I'll go mine,
(I’ll hope that we both
can find some common line)
Lay down your arms,
I will lay down mine
(Maybe some peace
will come to us in time)
Now you
Now you
Well it looks as though the happy days
Are over now,
Best we leave them behind
And look ahead to the future now
Oh I know we both had thought
The good times might last,
But the ghosts of the past,
They were chasing us fast,
And they've brought to us our knees
If this is the end
I'd rather just say goodbye,
Now this is the end,
So can we let sleeping dogs lie?
And you go your way,
I'll go mine
(I’ll hope that we both
can find some common line)
Lay down your arms,
I will lay down mine
(Maybe some peace
will come to us in time)

HOME
The day I sat down at the piano
And realized
I can go most anywhere
What a sense of liberation
An overwhelming resignation
To abandon all the rules
I pulled the notes out of the sky
And played them with my hands
The words fell out of space
Without a rhyme or reason
Just a yearning to exist
And then I looked my face in the mirror
Everything seemed a little clearer
For the first time
Oh what a feeling of elation
This introspect evaluation
BEAUTY
IN
THE
BREAKDOWN
That night I had a dream about the Future
And there was no fear
Now I lay my head upon your chest,
And look around our little nest,
And realize...
I am home
I’ve come home
Now, I’m home

He wears black eye-liner and skin tight patent leather,
Silver nail polish and a tattoo of a peacock feather,
A button on his jacket with a picture of Siouxsie Sioux,
And on the other side are The Cure, The Smiths, and DM too
(Rough trade) kill fashion, style is free
(Rough trade) pure passion, baby can't you see?
He's not so strange, (he's just eccentric)
He’s not deranged, (he’s just eccentric)
Although estranged, (just too eccentric)
He has no shame…
Fashion comes from magazine,
But style’s born from self esteem
(Do you know now what it means?)
And he could be,
Your uncle too.

Cause & Effect - Deluxe Edition
by Cause and Effect
supported by 10 fans who also own “NAKED MACHINE - (LP)”
I remember the first time I heard "You Think You Know Her" on the radio, and thinking it was a new song by Depeche Mode! Then in 1993, I found the CD in the discount bin at Camelot Music, only because it was re-released on a different label with the title "Another Minute" so I kind of lucked out. Still one of my favorites to this day, there isn't a track that I skip, which says a lot. The extra tracks on this deluxe edition are equally good but missing "You Think You Know Her (Unfaithful Mix)".
