"Why don't you play us a tune pal?"
"I don't like music"
"Comical little geezer, you'll look funny when you're fifty"

Somebody I never met, but in a way I know
Didn't think that you could get so much from a picture show
Man dies, first reel, people ask, "what's the deal?"
This ain't how it's supposed to be, don't like no aborigine

Took a trip in Powis Square, pop star dyed his hair
No fans to scream and shout when mobsters came to flush him out
Gangland slaying underground, new identity must be found
On the left bank for a while, insanity bohemian style

Ritual ideas, relativety
Only buildings, no people prophecy
Timeslide, place to hide nudge reality
Foresight minds, wide magic imagery

Met a dwarf that was no good, dressed like little Red Riding Hood
Bad habit taking life, calling card a six inch knife
Ran off really fast, mumbled something 'bout the past
Best sex I've ever seen as if each moment was the last

Drops of blood colour slide, funeral for his bride
But it's him who's really dead, gets to take the funeral ride

Ritual ideas, relativety
Only buildings, no people prophecy
Timeslide, place to hide nudge reality
Foresight minds, wide magic imagery

"You know I don't think I'm going to let you stay in the film business"
"We're not gonna take it, we're not gonna take it"
"Things have changed!"
"I like a bit of a cavort, I don't listen to solicitor's letters, I apply a bit of pressure"

Space guy fell from the sky, scratched my head and wondered why
Time slide into time across international dateline
Scientist eats bubblegum, hall of fame baseball
Senators a Hoodlum, big chiefs in the hall

Ritual ideas, relativety
Only buildings, no people prophecy
Timeslide, place to hide nudge reality
Foresight minds, wide magic imagery

Stray thoughts fear to tread, placed upon the screen instead
She's my flame too hot to hold, had to settle for her cold

Bloodlust, greek god, gold discovery
Gone bust, tight wad, slow recovery
Axe job, flame thrower, ironbar and gun
Betting shop, new owner, a walk in the sun

Ritual ideas, relativety
Only buildings, no people prophecy
Timeslide, place to hide nudge reality
Foresight minds, wide magic imagery

Spread the news - the Maestro's back with a beat-box soundtrack
The King of Brains - Queen of the Sack, executives have heart attack
It's assault course celluloid the money makers would avoid
Sometimes notions get reversed, centre of the universe

Ritual ideas, relativety

"What you think you are, the Lone Ranger?"
"We're not gonna take it, we're not gonna take it"
"You're Jack the Lad"
"Putting a little stick about, putting the fire into those flash little twerps"
"He's an ignorant boy, an out of date boy"
"United we stand, divided we're lumbered"
"The man's dead, and who's left holding the sodding baby?"
"They're a bunch of liars and wrigglers, give 'em a bit of stick"
