Well I am going down to nowhere
Its not too far from here
The Rain’ll be running rings
Around this tinpot cavalier
and there are skeletons and wastrels
As far as the eye can see
So if you want me baby
The Nowheres where I’ll be

Yeah I am going down to nowhere
Oh its childsplay
We are turning up our collars
We are hijacking the day
And you can tell me about your journeys
You can tell me all your dreams
But nothing comes close
To the nowhere that I’ve seen

And all you people heading somewhere
Well you don’t know what you’re missing
Cos theres nothing like the freedom
Of a place where noone listens

so I am going down to nowhere
It is steeped in history
This is high-rise living for a
Joke Like me
We are such pretty little failures
on streets paved with fools gold
and no-one will think twice about
The nothing that they’ve sold

And all you people heading somewhere
Well you don’t know what you’re missing
Cos theres nothing like the freedom
Of a place where noone listens

So I am going down to nowhere
With the drop-outs and the bums
I’m a soldier of the vacuum
When the darkness comes
I’m a vaudeville comedian
In a theatre of bones
And Its a laugh a minute
When nowhere is your home

When Did You Get So Safe?

God you must have some balls
To open your mouth at all
Theres nothing happening
Around this scene you’re in
And when did you get so safe?
Must be the last resort
To crash before you’re caught
You pretty mid-town boys
Pumping designer noise
Tell me when did you get so safe?

Oh those veiled love songs that you play
Have you really got nothing better to say?

This is the reckoning This is the mess we’re in
Your half smoked cigarette’s as risque as you can get
And when did you get so safe?
Yeah you’re all outlaws then
Mavericks in mercedes benz
A smile before you go
Revolution in a fashion show
Tell me when did you get so safe?
