	Mad Eyed Screamer So Unreal But Not Them Wild Thing Thumb



	Mad Eyes Screamer Lyrics

	Platform ranting in the trees Disturbed voices on the breeze Huddled 'round the mad eyed screamer A pointed finger, the tin can schemer Mad eyed screamer, mad eyed screamer Mad eyed screamer, mad eyed screamer A pointed finger, the tin can schemer Mad eyed screamer, the corner speaker Could be a preacher, could be a teacher You want the world to meet you maker Now the lecher transforms the traitor With a petrol flaring eye Come and see the corner speaker Come and hear his suit drip dry The passers-by have one obsession To hear his raving to the sky Mad eyed screamer on your knees Mad eyed screamer you are not pleased With the chatter in the trees Your balls are freezing in the breeze Mad eyed screamer, mad eyed screamer Mad eyed screamer, mad eyed screamer Your balls are freezing in the breeze Mad eyed screamer you are not pleased

	Based on a local character found at Speakers Corner in Hyde Park, London . "'Mad Eyed Screamer is about a guy who was at Speaker's Corner on Sundays when I used to go down there, one man in particular that I remember who was just crazed, obsessive and quite frightening."

	So Unreal Lyrics

	What can I do, I know they've gotten to you When you say that your whites have an Ariel blue What's happened to you since I last saw you I thought I knew your name, but it's not you But it's not you You're talking in a balloon, in this tidy room Sounding like a commercial for a serial I wish you could feel the way that I feel I wish you could feel but you're so unreal You're so unreal What can I say, what can I say All the traits you had have all gone away Get up and wash at the right time of day And greet the world with the right things to say What can I say, what can I say You're so ideal, you're never down at heel You're so ideal, but you're so unreal I wish you could feel the way that I feel I wish could feel but you're so unreal You're so unreal

	But Not Them Lyrics

	She hates the man and he hates the man Because something strong inside has been denied them But not him, oh not him He hates the girl and she hates the girl Because something weak implied They fought to push aside them But not her, oh not her The girls isn't alive but the man is dead Because it's all been said before The girl isn't alive but the man is dead Because you only have you mentor to draw, you whore Dead lumps of meat melt in this heat Dead lumps of meat melt in this heat She hates the man and he hates the man Because something strong inside has been denied them But not him, oh not him He hates the girl and she hates the girl Because something weak implied They fought to push aside them But not her, oh not her The girls isn't alive but the man is dead Because it's all been said before The girl isn't alive but the man is dead Because you only have you mentor to draw from Dead lumps of meat melt in this heat Dead lumps of meat melt in this heat But not them

	Thumb Lyrics

	Wandering through the narrow thoroughfare The motorway is standing on its own I see me walking there One for the road My thumbs have dropped me on the road The headlights find my load Following signs and always taking my time Following signs these thumbs have lights of their own One more for the road Just one more for the road Digital fun in the sun Follow my thumb, follow my thumb These thumbs are my gun See them dance when I'm blue This beacon is my fare, anytime, anywhere Take a ride by my side in the day or the night Traveling through, some old, some new Just one more for the road Just another one for the road Jump inside little girl, take a ride by my side There's no end to this ride with this stranger tonight Just one more for the road Just another one for the road Digital fun in the sun Follow my thumb, follow my thumb Digital fun in the sun Follow my thumb, Follow my thumb, follow my thumb, follow my thumb
