From the recording Here in Skin
Lyrics
Got satellite sitcom
And tabloid dot com
All the right modcons
In a suburban condom
Channelled brand news
Saying you can’t lose
Tripping the short fuse
With circuses and bread queues
But when the penny drops
All the spinning stops
And then it’s up to you
Yes, it’s up to you
There’s no mystery in control
History‘s bought and sold
Whatever the prophets say
It’s profits that speak today
But when the penny drops
All the spinning stops
And then it’s up to you
Yes, it’s up to you
Then you’re on the edge
centre of love and knowledge
Then you’re on your own
And the sword slips from the stone
But when the penny drops
All the spinning stops
