lyrics

SIPHONERS
(Neill/Lyster/Mengis)

We are siphoners of the gasoline
Anonymous inside your plasma screen
Scavenging the rubbish heap of society
Headfirst into the 21st century

LED lamps cut the dark
plastic sheets and old TVs,
mountains of metal scrap
kids sucking fumes on skinned up knees,
Payatas dump in monsoon season
streaks of light, stars climbing high
sparks split, rearrange
constellations fall from the sky

rest your head against me now
quiet my racing mind
lay your hand in mine

We are the siphoners of the gasoline
Anonymous inside your plasma screen
Scavenging the rubbish heap of society
Headfirst into the 21st century
Headfirst into the 21st century

In pachinko parlors and game arcades
we rule Taiko No Tatsujin
streaming video, endless noise
the fire yearns for oxygen
the virus spreads, malware infects
the feedback loop goes round and round
time bends back, surges ahead
can you hear that foreign sound

rest your head against me now
quiet my racing mind
lay your hand in mine

We are the siphoners of the last of the gasoline
Anonymous inside your plasma screen
Scavenging the rubbish heap of society
Headfirst into the 21st century
Headfirst into the 21st century
