Track Name: Richard Dawkins
the man he is not there
man he is not there
man he is not there
look, he is not there!

why he doesn't smile
why he doesn't smile
why he doesn't smile
why he doesn't smile?

everybody hit
everybody hit
everybody hit
everybody hit the ground

...maybe he has no god...

swinging like the sea
swinging like the sea
swinging like the sea
twisting like the sea

calling the police
calling the police
calling the police
calling 999

look he wears a hat
look he wears a hat
look he wears a hat
look he wears a hat

feeling overload feeling overload feeling overload feeling overload

and nothing does matter
and nothing does matter
and nothing does matter
and nothing does matter
Track Name: Once in a Lifetime
once in a lifetime
all that glittered was the dust on your face
i walked with my eyes closed
and tigers disappeared from the side of my gaze
the side of my gaze

and i thought that nothing could change
and i thought that nothing would change...

once in a lifetime
every single plate was just thrown on a floor
it might have opened up my eyes
but all there really was were plates on a floor
plates on a floor

and still i felt that nothing could change
and still i felt like nothing would change...

a bird flew by
and looked down at my house
and saw someone
who also just drifted through time

once in a lifetime
that was once in a lifetime
once in a lifetime
that was once in a lifetime
once in a lifetime
this is once in a lifetime
once in a lifetime
this is once in a lifetime
Track Name: Algebra
in a dream
by the book
silhouettes
always hoped that we could be
one

we talked of dancing
naturally
yours is faith
mine algebra
never thought that we would be
parts

these are the days of now

silhouettes...
always hoped that we could be

the snow calms down
by my shoes
november frost
creeps through our hug
never thought that we would be
parts

these are the days of now
the climbs and the falls and the whys and the hows
these are the days of now
the climbs and the falls and the whys and the hows
the climbs and the falls and the whys and the hows
the climbs and the falls and the whys and the hows

hows. hows. hows.
One. One. One.
parts. parts.
parts. parts.
Track Name: Forget the Human Race
oceans crawl out
from the puddles
sticks they sail away

mermaids slither
on the sidewalk
forget the human race

and every moment once...

whales are floating
silently on water drops
hey, i have lost my face!

i am holding on to your fins now
the sea is deep, the night moves in
forget the human race

and every moment once
and every moment once
and every moment once

no more land
no more dreams
no more land, no more dreams
no more land, no more dreams
no more land, no more dreams

there are only two colours in the world right now
divided by the horizon
forget the human race

and every moment once
and every moment once
and every moment once
once. once. once. once.
Track Name: A Magic Trick
there's a magic trick I know of
where all connections disappear
and my eyes fill up with water
and the silence ends up here
inside my living room, inside my living room

i am pretty sure i'll manage
to turn this moment into a dream
if i just keep on pushing sideways
no matter where it leads
into the wilderness, into the wilderness

the walls are growing flowers
and light is sifting through the air
and in my head there is a brain
that seems to take me, take me, take me
far away from here, so far away from here

away from here
Track Name: Tides and Lows
i wanted to be free
i wanted to be free
i wanted to be me

but i really
really liked your eyes
really liked your smiles
really liked you are versed in old books

but you were round me like the moon

i wanted only to be faithful
worship my desires
'cause that's what's human
ain't that so?
but it's human to be faulty
human to be failing
and to tide and low

but you were round me like the moon

why can't we be
why can't we be
the moon and the sea
the moon and the sea
