Internationlist lyrics

.....Hindley Street

A gentle winter haze creeps in at three forty-four
The Hindley street parade shuffles to my door
The hotel decor shades are always poorly sewn
Twenty-five in thirty days makes this room feel like home

Na na na
Na na na na
Na na na
Na na na na...

The western ocean breeze kickstarts another day
And under brewed bag tea no matter where you get it always seems
To leave that taste
The Todd Street mall café is here to save the day
Why should I complain when everybody else is overworked and
underpaid

Na na na
Na na na na
Na na na
Na na na na...

Days keep rolling over
Escape to the undercover
Soon it will all be over
And we can start again, again

Na na na
Na na na na
Na na na
Na na na na... (etc...)

Days keep rolling over
Escape to the undercover
Soon it will all be over
And we can start again, again

[Can you start it for me again?]
[Ah baby I can do that]

.....Belter

You go
I feel like dropping bombs between your eyes
But not today
Too slow
I feel like sinking arrows in your mind
You're all the same

You don’t have to reveal it
You get trouble concede
You don’t have to reveal it

Are you feeling right
Are you feeling right
A defeated sight
Are you feeling right

You go
Soaking up your public appetite
The war you wage
Too slow
I tell you once again you’re not my type
You’re all the same

Something come along gonna make a change
You don’t have to reveal it
You get trouble concede
You don’t have to reveal it

Are you feeling right
Are you feeling right
Are you feeling right
Are you feeling right

Such a defeated sight
Are you feeling right

.....The Day You Come

Memories are fading
A single voice complaining
While days are stacking up
It’s hardly worth debating
The people are frustrated
Drink from poison cup
The system is collapsing
Conscience is relapsing
The damage has been done

On the day you come rising up
On the day you come rising up

Vision is rejected
The people’s choice is tested
So ignorance has won
Children are infected
Remedy suggested
Don’t drink from tainted cup
Overpopulation, media sensations
The damage has been done

On the day you come rising up
On the day you come rising up

(On the day you come)

On the day you come rising up
On the day you come rising up
On the day you come rising up
On the day you come rising up
On the day you come rising up
On the day you come rising up (fade out...)

.....Already Gone

You've been working all your life
All weekends and overtime
While you're trying to unwind
You can't relate to the leisured life
Another day meanders by
Keeping natures tabled time
All these things just pass you by
And you can't relax in a scheduled life

(1, 2, 3, 4)

Promises already gone
There's no escape it's said and done
So keep your love forever young

You've been trying to decide
Multiply or just divide
All these things are on your mind
And you can't relax in a scheduled life

Promises already gone
There's no escape it's said and done
So keep your love forever young

Doo do do do do...
Doo do do do do...
Doo do do do do...

Promises already gone
There's no escape it's said and done
So keep your love forever young

.....Passenger

Caged
You hold so tight until your knuckles show
Escape
As far away as you could ever know
You sink them all down
And watch them float up
Until the wheel has spun around
You will be bound by what you are

You stand in the corner
With your face stripped of colour
For what?

If you want to be a passenger
Climb aboard with me we’re leaving now
Step outside and see another world
Only if you want to be a passenger

Chained
So many places you’d prefer to be
Than framed
By a pickt fence and salary
You sink them all down
Then watch them float up
Until the wheel has spun around
You will be bound by who you are

You’re tied to the corner
With your hope twisted under
In knots

If you want to be a passenger
Climb aboard with me we’re leaving now
Step outside and see another world
Only if you want to be a passenger

Ooohhh
La la la la la la la
La la la la la la la
Ooohhh
La la la la la la la
La la la la la la la
Ooohhh
La la la la la la la
La la la la la la la

If you want to be
Ooohhh
La la la la la la la
La la la la la la la
etc...

.....Don't Wanna Be Left Out

(Watch out)
I creep around slowly
And receive from the tv
Signals about my life
I've no dedication
To my medication
I'm otherwise occupied
An ambitious plan
To bring attention to myself
A cerebral hitman
Permeates my mental health

But, but I don’t want to be left out
So will you take me too
When the supper is handed out
There will be room for two
Now I'm flying away
Stupefy and sedate

At my own invitation
A new celebration
Of how I became a man
This whole evoloution
And manic confusion
To unlock and understand
In a past life
I'm sure I was a princess then
A princess wife
My hypnotist he took me there

But, but I don’t want to be left out
So will you take me too
When the supper is handed out
There will be room for two
Now I'm flying away
Stupefy and sedate

And now you show up bright and clear eyed
Now you show up bright and clear eyed

But, but I don’t want to be left out
So will you take me too
When the supper is handed out
There will be room for two
Now I'm flying away
Stupefy and sedate

.....Good-Day Ray

He’s at you again ray
Testing out your headspace
No matter what you do
The money still loves you

And you have fallen down the stairs again
You might have to take it easy
You've fallen down the stairs again
You might have to take it easy

Because we love you
And we respect you
Because we love you
And we respect you

And you have fallen down the stairs again
You might have to take it easy
You've fallen down the stairs again
You might have to take it easy

(alright - alright - ready Johnny - ready - GO)

He’s at you again ray
He’s at you again ray
He’s at you again ray
Testing out your headspace

.....Trading Places

I could not face
I could not face you
Lost my place
Couldn’t I fade away

Cannot wait
To trade my place again
You save face
When I hang my head in shame

Feelings hide
Feelings die

I cannot wait
To trade my place again
You save face
When I hang my head in shame

Feelings hide
Feelings die

They could not wait to open you up
They could not wait to open you up

I could not face
I could not face you
Lost my place
Couldn’t I fade away

Couldn’t I fade away

.....Private Man

I tell you he’s a private man
In a public circumstance
He’s eyeing off an old doorframe
Looking for a drastic change

It’s such a shame this has to end
But things are out of his command

He has no further truth to tell
Now he has absolved himself
He’s eyeing off an old doorframe
History secures his name

It’s such a shame this has to end
But things are out of his command
There’s no more problems to defend
Now he falls so far

I tell you he’s a private man
In a public circumstance
He’s eyeing off an old doorframe
Looking for a drastic change

It’s such a shame this has to end
But things are out of his command
There’s no more problems to defend
Now he falls so far
Now he falls so far
And he falls so far
And he falls so far

.....Celebrity Head

At quarter to nine
My plus one decides to make her arrival
I’ll say what I like
At the end of the night for social survival
I’ll cut you to size
Then apologise and make an impassioned plea
There were no docken parks
I had to walk in the dark I wasn’t myself you see

Here I am again you know me
Here I am again in for free
Missed the backing band you know me
Here I am again in for free

I know I sound trite
But I get off on things like
It’s their sophomore album
I don’t know what I mean
But I’m a part of the scene I know a guy from The Melvins
I came to do a review
I had to wait in the queue I just can’t believe it
Don’t you know who I am
I work the street paper scam I can’t believe you don’t read me

Here I am again you know me
Here I am again in for free
Missed the backing band you know me
Here I am again in for free
Here I am again
Here I am again

.....Over My Head

A combination of the two worst ideas that you might have
Well don't complain when you just concede
There's nothing left for you

It's sad to think that it all went over my head
I like to think it was easy not to have said
It's sad to think that it all went over my head
I liked to think it was easy not to have said

Look up, there's another place where you might just have come from
Hold me down there is nothing to say i've been spent around here

It's sad to think that it all went over my head
I like to think it was easy not to have said
It's sad to think that it all went over my head
I liked to think it was easy not to have said

.....Capoicity

Honesty is out of style
So hammer in the coffin nails
A message sent across to land
With kisses for you

We’ll tell them nothing
Our little secret
They’ll never make us
Ever open up

Tradition in and out the door
Family our fatal flaw
A future frameless in design
A seamless concept

We’ll tell them nothing
Our little secret
They’ll never make us
Ever open up
Never break our trust
Until we’re coffin dust

Ooohh Ah
Ooohh Ah
Ooohh Ah
Ooohh...

When this feeling fades
It’ll all seem like a waste

The fragile bond has shaken loose
This secret love a shrinking noose
You suffocated on the truth
You left with nothing

The fragile bond has shaken loose
This secret love a shrinking noose
You suffocated on the truth
You left with nothing
You left with nothing
You left with nothing
