Run Away - Super Furry Animals

Show Your Hand - Super Furry Animals

Let me tell you something, creature
Wherever you go, there's someone waiting to show you the ropes
Letting you glide along the sky like a moonbeam baby
To the city outside
Don't criticise those faces you see
They only want to empathize with thee

That's when you show your hand
And reach for the stars
Reaching back for that moment
When we wrecked our cars
Show your hand, baby
Let's be free,
Show your hand

They flock in droves,
They hide in coves
No one wants to be seen in the bee-line, zee-line outta the way
It's okay, honey, we're in it to win it
And that's why we're throwing ourselves minute by minute
Let them know that there's no holding back

That's when you show your hand
And reach for the stars
Reaching back for that moment
When we wrecked our cars
Show your hand, baby
Let's be free,
Show your hand

If You Don't Want Me To Destroy You - Super Furry Animals

If you don't want me to destroy you
Take a leaf out of my book
Turn it round and have a look
Because I don't want you to destroy me
I'll commit myself to be
In and out of every tree

Gravity
You just hold me down so quietly
You just pull me back

When the insects fly all around you
Do you reach and aim a hit
Or do you lie around a bit?
And when the animals gather round you
Do you ask them for the time
Or do you run away and whine?

Gravity
You just hold me down so quietly
You just pull me back...

Gravity
You just hold me down so quietly
You just pull me down to earth
Let me grow into the depths of your infinity
I can sense your presence in the vicinity...

Something 4 The Weekend - Super Furry Animals

First time, I did it for the hell of it
Stuck it on the back of my tongue and then swallowed it
Second time, things are getting easier
Blow me down, this wind's getting breezier
Third time lucky, maybe feeling fuzzy
Oh my god, we're getting hippy dippy
Five, six, seven, man I'm in heaven
And I'm growing my beard before it gets sheared

You're on my mind every day and every night
And you'll never go away cos I know you're here to stay
For the rest of my mind
On my mind every day and every night
And you'll never go away cos I know you're here to stay
For the rest of my mind

First time, I did it for the hell of it
Stuck it right up and that was the end of it
Second time, things are getting easier
Hairs on the back of my neck are getting stickier
Third time lucky, perversely body
Doctor I'm ill, please pass me the brandy
Five, six seven, I heard George Foreman say:
"Stone horses loose, fast women frighten"

You're on my mind every day and every night
And you'll never go away cos I know you're here to stay
For the rest of my mind
On my mind every day and every night
And you'll never go away cos I know you're here to stay
For the rest of my mind

I just keep repeating myself
I just keep repeating myself
I just keep repeating myself
I just keep repeating myself
I just keep repeating myself
I just keep repeating myself

(Oh yeah, cos)
You're on my mind every day and every night
And you'll never go away cos I know you're here to stay
For the rest of my mind
On my mind every day and every night
And you'll never go away cos I know you're here to stay
For the rest of my mind...

Hermann Loves Pauline - Super Furry Animals

Hermann loves Pauline and Pauline loves Hermann
They made love and gave birth to a little German
They called him MC squared cos he raps like no other
An asthma sufferer like Ernesto Guevara
Too much Monte Cristo No. 4
Pass the ventolin, I need some more
We have ways of making you think
We have ways of making you think
We have ways of making you think
We have ways of making you think
We have ways of making you think
They told me over a drink

They never noticed him at school, they tell me
He kept himself to himself
He used to sit and stare up at the ceiling
Hermann loves Pauline
They never noticed him at school, they tell me
He suffered poor health
He used to vacantly stare out the window feeling under
Why do you do what they tell you?

Marie Curie was Polish born but French bred (French bread!)
Of course she ended up dead, from radiation
Slow, invisible suffocation
Down the 24 hour garage or any service station
I lead my life in a quest for information
Sensurrounded by pies and books
Middle-aged drivers and deranged cooks

They never noticed her at school, they tell me
She kept herself to herself
She used to sit and stare up at the ceiling
Hermann loves Pauline
They never noticed her at school, they tell me
She suffered poor health
She used to vacantly stare out the window feeling under
Why do you do what they tell you?

Demons - Super Furry Animals

Clarity just confuses me
The lines drawn on a map, a strange assembly
When there's northeners in southeners
And westenders in eastenders
And sunny days in January
Left spaces in my diary

But the demons never need to know
What the demons never got to see
As we fall in and out of line
Stay in touch now for a while

Cos I know that apathy only ruined me
Hanging around waiting for calamity
And by the year four million
Our skins will be vermilion
I own a dartboard memory
So I'll forget any felony

But the demons never need to know
What the demons never got to see
As we fall in and out of line
Stay in touch now for a while

Cos I know that you know
That we know they don't know what's going on

But the demons never need to know
What the demons never got to see
As we fall in and out of line
Stay in touch now for a while

But the demons never need to read
What we never got around to write
A flirt with mediocrity comes with a heavy penalty

Cos I know that you know
That we know they don't know what's going on...

Fire In My Heart - Super Furry Animals

i've got a fire in my heart for you,
i've got a fire in my heart for you,
i've got a fire in my heart, though I'm falling apart,
still I've got a fire in my heart for you.

i've got pins and needles for you,
i've got pins and needles for you,
you've got needles and pins, and the seven deadly sins,
still i've got a fire in my heart for you.

i've a butterfly stomach for you,
i've a butterfly stomach for you,
and as the cars fly by, I just break down and cry,
still I've got a fire in my heart for you.

well the Monkey Puzzle tree,
has some questions,
for the watchdogs of the profane,
and I ask is it sad,
that I'm driving myself mad,
douse this fire in my heart turns blue

i've got a fire in my heart for you,
i've got a fire in my heart for you,
i've got a fire in my heart for you,
i've got a fire in my heart for you.

It's Not The End of the World? - Super Furry Animals

Why?

When you fall asleep
Before the end of the day
You start to worry

Like when the taxi comes
To take you away
When you're in no hurry

Yet as our hair turns white
All the stars still shine so bright, above
At least

It's not the end of the world

Why?

We could live it large
Because we're only old once
Let's make a difference

Turn all the hate in the world
Into a mockingbird
Make it fly away

Yet as our hair turns grey
Everything is far from A ok

At least it's not the end of the world
No, at least it's not the end of the world

Why?

Play It Cool - Super Furry Animals

Dormant vices turned on their devices
Now she's raising money for the sex appeal
And when she grazed her knee upon the astroturf
All her blood turned green as the tv screamed:

"Whatever you want to do, do it now and pay later
Whatever you want to say, say it now and pay later
Whatever you want to clean, wash it now and go later
Whatever you want to do, do it now and pay later"

Cos it's no problem if you play it cool
Things are different if you act a fool

The electric mistress always sounds so bold
She says I'm free to do anything I'm told
I try the latest newsflash, it's sensational
I feel so seduced, tell me to reproduce

"Whatever you want to do, do it now and pay later
Whatever you want to say, say it now and pay later
Whatever you want to pray, pray it now and pay later
Whatever you want to do, do it now and pay later"

Cos it's no problem if you play it cool
Things are different if you act a fool...

Juxtaposed With U - Super Furry Animals

It's easy when you know how
To get along without Biff! Bang! Pow!
And if I see that you're fed up
I'll stop and give you a leg up
Over-priced unreal estate, surreal estate
The highest price they've hit to date
Creating new divides and tension
You've got to tolerate
All those people that you hate
I'm not in love with you
But I won't hold that against you

You've got to tolerate
Some of those people that you hate
I'm not in love with you
But I won't hold that against you

This is a tale of two situations
Mutual appreciation
Away from narrow preconception
Avoiding conflict hypertension
Non-phobic word aerobic
This was my domain
'Til someone stole my name

You've got to tolerate
All those people that you hate
I'm not in love with you
But I won't hold that against you

You've got to tolerate
Some of those people that you hate
I'm not in love with you
But I won't hold that against you

Let's get juxtaposed, juxtaposed
Just suppose I juxtapose with you
(I wanna get juxtaposed with you) (X4)

You've got to tolerate
All those people that you hate
I'm not in love with you
But I won't hold that against you

You've got to tolerate
Some of those people that you hate
I'm not in love with you
But I won't hold that against you

Let's get juxtaposed

Lazer Beam - Super Furry Animals

The resistance
In the distance
Creeping closer
Have no fear
Land in anguish
We escape it
In our rocket
Propelled spaceship

Take a shine of our lazer beam
And we'll cleanse all the evil within you
(x4)

Human being
Human doing
Human error
Human terror
Human nature
Human hate you
Human crying
Human leaving

Take a shine of our lazer beam
And we'll cleanse all the evil within you
(x4)

We will conquer utopia in space chariots

Take a shine of our lazer beam
And we'll cleanse all the evil within you
(x8)

Point your random finger
Point it to the sky
Point your random finger
Come on and testify
Human kind loves money
We just love to fly
(Fly, fly, fly)
So point your random finger

Hello Sunshine - Super Furry Animals

Hello sunshine
Come into my life

In honesty
It's been a while
Since we had reason left to smile
Hello sunshine
Come into my life

I'm a minger
You're a minger too
So come on minger
I want to ming with you

In honesty it's been a while
Since we had reason left to smile
Hello sunshine
Come into my life

You're not so innocent
You're a disgrace to your country
If you fled a million miles
I'd chase you for a day
(If I could be bothered)

Hello sunshine
Come into my life

So hard to say goodbye
Meaning it today
I've said goodbye before
Leaving you alone
By the sea
So hard to say goodbye
