A cicada ( /sɪˈkeɪdə/ or /sɪˈkɑːdə/) is an insect of the order Hemiptera, suborder Auchenorrhyncha (which was formerly included in the now invalid order Homoptera), in the superfamily Cicadoidea, with large eyes wide apart on the head and usually transparent, well-veined wings. There are about 2,500 species of cicada around the world, and many of them remain unclassified. Cicadas live in temperate to tropical climates where they are among the most widely recognized of all insects, mainly due to their large size and unique sound. Cicadas are often colloquially called locusts, although they are unrelated to true locusts, which are a kind of grasshopper. Cicadas are related to leafhoppers and spittlebugs.
Cicadas are benign to humans under normal circumstances and do not bite or sting in a true sense, but may mistake a person's arm or other part of their body for a tree or plant limb and attempt to feed. Cicadas have a long proboscis under their head which they insert into plant stems in order to feed on sap. It can be painful if they attempt to pierce a person's skin with it, but it is unlikely to cause other harm. It is unlikely to be a defensive reaction and is a rare occurrence. It usually only happens when they are allowed to rest on a person's body for an extended amount of time.
Sir David Frederick Attenborough ( /ˈætənbərə/) OM, CH, CVO, CBE, FRS, FZS, FSA (born 8 May 1926) is a British broadcaster and naturalist.
His career as the face and voice of natural history programmes has endured for more than 50 years. He is best known for writing and presenting the nine Life series, in conjunction with the BBC Natural History Unit, which collectively form a comprehensive survey of all life on the planet. He is also a former senior manager at the BBC, having served as controller of BBC Two and director of programming for BBC Television in the 1960s and 1970s.
Attenborough is widely considered a national treasure in Britain, although he himself does not care for the term. He is a younger brother of director, producer and actor Richard Attenborough.
Attenborough was born in Isleworth, west London, but grew up in College House on the campus of the University College, Leicester, where his father, Frederick, was principal. He is the middle of three sons (his elder brother, Richard, became an actor and his younger brother, John, an executive at Italian car manufacturer Alfa Romeo). During World War II his parents also adopted two Jewish refugee girls from Europe.
When he was just a little boy,
He only had one favourite toy.
And he had nothing on his mind,
He never left anything behind.
As he got older, things got worse,
Like he'd been born under a curse.
Things started to fall apart,
They weren't like they were at the start.
No, it's like a civil war.
Growing up,
It's like a civil war.
Don't turn away,
It's something you can't ignore.
Growing up,
It's like a civil war.
And now that he was in his teens,
He'd started to learn what life means.
Problems were still appearing,
They didn't look like disappearing.

Nothing lasts forever
Of that I'm sure
Now you've made an offer
I'll take some more
Young loving may be
Oh so mean
Will I still survive
The same old scene?
In our lighter moments
precious few
It's all that heavy weather
We're going through
When I turn the corner
I can't believe
It's still the same old movie
That's haunting me
Young loving may be
Oh so mean
Trying to revive
The same old scene
Young loving may be
So extreme
Maybe we should try
The same old scene
(repeat 3x to fade)
Nothing lasts forever
Of that I'm sure
Now you've made an offer
Ah Ah Ah Ah
Ah Ah Ah Ah
I think I'm lost
Don't you know
You look so good
I want you so
And I-ah-ah-ah-I
You make me feel
Good Inside
But all I do is run and hide
Oh why-ah-ah-ah-why
I think about your private life
When I'm alone
Late at night
Oh I-ah-ah-ah-I
So won't you take me
To the light
And show me how your star shines bright
All night-ah-ah-ah-night
You make me feel
So surreal
Physcho thrills
Ah ah ah ah
You make me feel
So surreal
Physcho thrills
Right here, right now
You make me feel

Don't you know
You look so good

And I-ah-ah-ah-I
I need to know
Not understand
My silver tears are running dry
This ti-ah-ah-ah-ime
Pictures of your daily life
Sent to me via Satellite
At nigh-ah-ah-ah-ight
So can you tell me
What its like
To live alone in paradise
And why-ah-ah-ah-why
You make me feel
So surreal
Physcho thrills
Ah ah ah ah

So surreal
Physcho thrills
Right here, right now

Lots of faces around us here,
i just love to see the way,
you're wild at heart.
Your airs and graces don't bother me,
i just wanna see the world,
my own way.
One beat away,
one beat away,
one beat away.
One beat away,
one beat away,
From my heart.
Ho ho ho ho, ho, ho, ho.
Ho ho ho ho, ho, ho, ho.
You're only one beat away,
From my heart.
A thousand miles of your life ahead,
Tell me what you dream at night,
where the wild things are.
Do you ever blow the clouds away,
i just wanna be with you,
He spoke up now for a little while.
Couldn't let his life slip away.
He spoke up now just for a little while
but couldn't find words to say.
He spoke up now with an open file
to put his plan in place.
He spoke up now and all the while,
the colour drained from his face.
Too tired to sleep at night,
working the day,
can't find an appetite, no time to play.
He spoke up now, threw his pencil down,
wiped a tear from his cheek.
He spoke up now,
all his colleagues frowned.
He wasn't made for the working week.
Too tired to sleep at night,
working the day,
can't find an appetite, no time to play.
He spoke up now
as the walls came in
and stared defeat in the eye.
He spoke up now
with an evil grin
and bid his job goodbye.
Too tired to sleep at night,
working the day,
can't find an appetite, no time to play.
(He spoke up now)
Too tired to sleep at night,
working the day.
(He spoke up now)
Can't find the appetite, no time to play.
He spoke up now
as the walls came in
and stared defeat in the eye.
He spoke up now
with an evil grin
I was, not the only one, afraid to fall,
Those things, seem so far away, after all,
So scared of what I think I might, do I believe or do I
give it up?
You see the bubble bursting, and now it's gone.
Don't know what you did, don't know what you said, could
it be the last time?
Don't know what you did, don't know what you said.
Don't you know that you cut right through my feelings,
Don't you know it's the end of the joke and ime steaming.
(2X)
I won't try to make it up, ive done it before,
You have to learn to speak ure mind, and give a bit more,
So bored with standing on the line, do i decide or am i
wasting time,
You see the bubble bursting, and now its gone.
Dont know what you did, dont know what you said, could it
be the last time,
Dont know what you did, dont know what you said.
Don't you know that you cut right through my feelings,
Don't you know it's the end of the joke and ime steaming.

Don´t stare at the sun too long
You and me we´ll collide
We are strangers and you´re almost done
now the stars are all on fire
and I feel what you feel
and I do what you do
and I feel like I´m falling into you
and I feel what you feel
and I do what you do
and I feel like I´m falling, falling, falling
Don´t stare at the sun too long
You and me we´ll collide
You are in focus around, my senses now
I don´t want to say goodbye
and I feel what you feel
and I do what you do
and I feel like I´m falling into you
and I feel what you feel
and I do what you do
and I feel like I´m falling, falling, falling
Don´t stare at the sun too long
Don´t stare at the sun...
Don´t stare at the sun too long
I know we should stay best friends
Maybe we could be lovers
And take a chance
'Cause when we touch
I feel electricity flow
Taking my body over
I'm on your remote control
As long as you stay - Beautiful
I just want you to stay - Beautiful
I just want you to stay - Beautiful
Beautiful
Time is offly a sense
And I don't want to waste
A single second
'Cause love is so high
Made of physical overload
Over my body flow
I'm on your remote control
As long as you stay - Beautiful
I just want you to stay - Beautiful
I just want you to stay - Beautiful
I just want you to stay - Beautiful
