Mayhew Speaks Out
. . .


When I look into your eyes, opache to all illusion
Magnified and opened wide, to voluminous confusion
Touch me, touch me, feel me, feel me
Know me, know me, show me, show me

Mdmazing, mdmazing
Mdmazing, mdmmazing

We got the power, you and me, you and me
We are together in ecstasy
We got the power, you and me, you and me
We are together in ecstasy

Energise, synchronise, in the strobe light radiation
Resonate and scintillate, such a beautiful mutation
Touch me, touch me, feel me, feel me
Know me, know me, show me, show me

Mdmazing, mdmazing
Mdmazing, mdmazing

We got the power, you and me, you and me
We are together in ecstasy
We got the power, you and me, you and me
We are together in ecstasy

Mdmazing, mdmazing
Mdmazing, mdmazing

We got the power, you and me, you and me
We are together in ecstasy
We got the power, you and me, you and me
We are together in ecstasy

I know that something very strange is happening to my brain
I'm either feeling very good, or else I am insane
The seed s of doubt you planted have started to grow wild
And I feel that I must yield to the wisdom of a child

And it's love you bring, of that I can't deny
With your wings, I can learn to fly
Sweet young thing, sweet young thing

People try to talk to me, they're words are ugly sounds
But I resist all their attempts to try and bring me down
I'm turned on to the sunset like I've never been before
And I listened for your footsteps and your knock upon my door

And it's love you bring, of that I can't deny
With your wings, I can learn to fly
Sweet young thing, sweet young thing

And it's love you bring, with dreams of bluer sky
The morning sings and I see it in your eyes
Sweet young thing, sweet young thing
Sweet young thing, sweet young thing
Sweet young thing, sweet young thing

. . .


Growing large in a small room, with a sickly air
I was blind to principle, in the neon glare
A gutter goddess with a practice smile
Is the bringer of rough temptation
To another unworthy worshipper, for a small consideration

Here I come, for her raspberry infundibulum
Here I come, for her raspberry infundibulum

Artificial ecstasy, covered every trace
Of the bleak antipathy, underneath her face
So I rushed to the finish of a twisted tale
That I knew was less than holy
Did it sin, dear father? Shall I burn in hell?
For I quite enjoyed the story

Here I come, for her raspberry infundibulum
Here I come, for her raspberry infundibulum

Here I come, for her raspberry infundibulum
Here I come, for her raspberry infundibulum
Here I come, for her raspberry infundibulum
Here I come, for her raspberry infundibulum
Here I come, for her raspberry infundibulum
Here I come, for her raspberry infundibulum

Oh lord our God
Help us to tear their soldiers to bloody shreds with our shells
Help us to cover their smiling fields with the pale forms of the dead
Help us to drown the thunder of the guns with the shrieks of the wounded
Writhing in pain

A prayer for war, a prayer for war
A prayer for war, a prayer for war

Oh lord our God
Help us to waste their humble homes in a hurricane of fire
Help us to wring the unoffending hearts of their widows with grief
Help us to turn them out with their children to wander the waste
Of their desolated land

A prayer for war, a prayer for war
A prayer for war, a prayer for war

We beseech thee o worthy lord
Blast their hopes and black the lines on their bitter pilgrimage
Make heavy their steps and water their way with tears my Lord
Stain the white snow with the blood of the woundeds' feet my Lord
And we ask it in the spirit of war

By radio wave, and satellite
And computer print-out page
There's a brand new breed of pharacee
For the electronic age
From the land so free, home of the brave
So white they're squeaky clean
So prosperous and odious
With malignant piety
Yeah these are the men who break the right in righteous
Such hypocrisy, stupidity is truly out of sight, yes

Jesus loves Amerika, but I don't love neither
Jesus loves Amerika, but I don't love neither

So infiltrate, indoctrinate
Inflict their lunacy
Intolerance and ignorance
Upon humanity
May the hand of God, please cut me down
Should I sing I'm true to thee
For couragenous lies and dollar signs
Are just fascist fallacies
They offer to you salvation by the nation
Keep that money coming forth
Make heaven your destination

Jesus loves Amerika, but I don't love neither
Jesus loves Amerika, but I don't love neither

Jesus loves Amerika, but I don't love neither
Jesus loves Amerika, but I don't love neither

One line is smiling, the other telling lies
We take their expressions, maintain their disguise
Fact or fiction, we will never know
Paint us a picture where truth never shows

And we can't find the truth in the word
No we can't find the truth in the word

Lead us a dance round the woe, now here we go
Spin us till we're dizzy with the horror you show
And it's only good news when you know that it's too late
Show us all the misery and tell us it straight

And we can't find the truth in the word

. . .


The texture of your skin is wonderful
And you're covered in it, how very fine
The fragrance of your hair, so sensual
And it grows right out of you, now that's sublime

We touch and there is fusion
And I move to the conclusion this is love
Oh, leave your body behind,
Move with me my darling
Leave your body behind
Come with me my darling, with me my darling

The colour of our love, invisible
We've seen through everything, now that's no crime
And radiant the look upon your countenance
Oh rapt you are indeed you shine tonight

We touch and there is fusion
And I move to the conclusion this is love
Oh, leave your body behind,
Move with me my darling
Leave your body behind
Come with me my darling, with me my darling

We touch and there is fusion
And I move to the conclusion this is love
Oh, leave your body behind,
Move with me my darling
Leave your body behind
Come with me my darling, with me my darling

. . .


Put your fantasies in someone
Say a prayer and hope to stay young
We'll have chemicals and freedom
In Gorbachev we trust

Put your fantasies in someone
Say a prayer and hope to stay young
We'll have chemicals and freedom
In Gorbachev we trust

In Gorbachev we trust, in Gorbachev we trust
In Gorbachev we trust, in Gorbachev we trust
In Gorbachev we trust, in Gorbachev we trust
In Gorbachev we trust, in Gorbachev we trust
In Gorbachev we trust, in Gorbachev we trust
In Gorbachev we trust, in Gorbachev we trust
