Gods and Unicorns - Nandi Bushell

I thought I'd have to do battle With gods and monsters I thought I had to seek prophets On distant horizons Questions I never have answers for Questions that never have answers See the lights on the other side And I'm burning up Oh and the river flows fast and wide As I cross over I thought the story had endings But the path proved hard to find I thought that love had a summit With a view of all humankind But the rocks of love come tumbling over me Questions that never have answers See the lights on the other side I'm burning up Oh and the river flows fast and wide As I cross over Journeying far from your orbit Sent past the end of the earth Just to feel the place that has called me summoned me Is right there in your arms, the birth, the death Heaven and hell have a fury unleashed Questions that never have answers See the lights on the other side I'm burning up Oh and the river flows fast and wide As I cross over The story without end I heard at the end of all time, the beginning Closing my eyes with our children in mind The beginning of love is sublime And the story without ending I can see all the way to the distant shore Oh the story without ending is I love you I love you I love you See the lights on the other side As I'm burning up Oh and the river flows fast and wide As I cross over

I'm such a party pooper Always looking for the downside But I think it's growing dark and It doesn't look like it's getting better And Unicorns are not so special They're just horses with a horn If anything they are more dangerous And probably self-important I know I'm such a wet blanket Yeah I was born in the day of the quarrel And maybe I'm getting old too But I swear that's how I've always been And Marmaids are not so charming either They probably smell of fish I mean, they have a fishtail! And sex would be disgusting too Oh what is the matter with me? What it is that makes me such a drag? Well I'm trying to understand Yeah to get to the crux of the matter Logic is dying By the hands of Feeling And truth is threatened by Bombastic speeches Oh Oh and they could go on and on They can go on and on Here is the church and Here is the steeple We sure are snob for Two clueless people The world as it is Is indeciphrable I can't help but try To get to the bottom of things

Firstly, we lived in a crater where our eyes glowed... We secrete leaders of secrecy... hello. What do you picture makes a frame, What you do everyday is the same. Turn off the lights and shake your hips, Let's make like a couplet, like two pairs of lips. Pop goes the ceiling of routine... Pop goes the feeling of sitting... Blow your head on the turn of the fan -- don't put another down payment on the oil of Iran. (?) Blow your head on the turn of the fan -- don't put another down payment on the oil of Iran. (?) Can't you see you've got honourable mention? Can't you see you've got no pension plan? It's time to decide -- we make it or we die. Hey, nuclear war and a hotbed of trouble! Make with the penance, repent on the double. We're going down in smoke and flames! We're going down and there's no one to blame! So keep it cold in a cool, dry place in a tucked away space... Save it with the face. Clean the egg, don't make me beg. Save us...

Radio has changed our lives and practically saved our lives Radio has changed our lives and practically saved our lives Radio has changed our lives and practically saved our lives Oh Yeah! I want to tell you about Dead City Radio man And the New Gods of Supertown. A world of Magic Lanterns and Chemical Blues. A world where X stands of the unknown and Y is the zero Sluggish drones assault my Radio 20 mortal lashes of Grotesque Audio Glittering fountains Misspent youth I'm a Rhinestone Tiger in a Leisure Suit Turn it up! Turn it up! Turn it up! Oh Yeah! We listen to the Radio Dead Radio We listen to the Radio Dead Radio I'll tell you one thing man Nothing ever happens until you medicate The Witch Queen of Mongo And Hail the passing of King George. Everybody is eating on behalf of the Gods With their Plastic Necks and Silver Teeth. Is there life beyond what you know? Hallucination thrives on my stereo Astonishing Skeptics Wasted Youth She's and Angel of Odd in her Birthday Suit Turn it up turn it up turn it up Oh Yeah We listen to the Radio Dead Radio We listen to the Radio Dead Radio It's right here now that we best serve the Beast of Trasmission And the cool passing wave of ignorance. They say the heart is a lonely hunter And the hardbox comes with a crime inside. Oh Yeah! We listen to the Radio Dead Radio We listen to the Radio Dead Radio

Yeah, there should be unicorns The ones with the purple eyes It should be loud as fuck Hope the swans don't die There should be burning sun And naked slaves And if the police show up We'll give them so much money it will make them cry And forgive us Yeah, there should be unicorns The ones with the purple eyes Not the green eyes Yeah, there should be unicorns The ones with the purple eyes Not the green eyes Yeah, there should be unicorns The ones with the purple eyes Not the green eyes Yeah, there should be day glow strippers Ones from the Amazon Some edible butterflies We put ketchup on Some motorcycle stunts That always crash And if the police show up We'll bribe them into helping us steal the light of love From the rainbow sluts that live next door Yeah, there should be unicorns The ones with the purple eyes Not the green eyes Yeah, there should be unicorns The ones with the purple eyes Not the green eyes At first there should be unicorns. The ones with the purple eyes, not the ones with green eyes. Whatever they give them, they shit everywhere. And it would be great if the moon was almost down. Like in a very red/orange state. Let's leave it like that for at least three hours, hovering just above the horizon. And if the police show up we will give them so much money that they can retire from their shitty, violent jobs and live the greatest life they've ever lived. And we will be high and the love generator will be turned up to its maximum. And we'll get higher when, at last, the sun comes up in the morning and we will collapse under the weight of the ancient earth. And it will be inside me and it will be inside you. And it will be the end of the world and the beginning of a new love

Baby if I have the power To dream about a new tomorrow Out of the hollow We can climb kilimanjaro Baby if we have the power In my dreams Try to live just for the thrills On imaginary hills I know unicorns exists In my dreams, in my dreams, in my dreams Maybe I need a superpower To find bliss in every hour After hour We could try killing the sorrow Baby I can change tomorrow In my dreams
