Taglines:

In 1984, Betty Mahmoody's husband took his wife and daughter to meet his family in Iran. He swore they would be safe. They would be happy. They would be free to leave. He lied.

Quotes:

Moody: I don't know how to say this to you. We're not going back. We're staying here.::Betty Mahmoody: [pauses] What do you mean? How long?::Moody: I want to get a job here in a hospital.::Betty Mahmoody: What?::Moody: I want us... to live in Iran.::Betty Mahmoody: [softly] No... No...::Moody: There's nothing for me in America.::Betty Mahmoody: No... What? Are you crazy? We're Americans. Your daughter's an American! Moody, honey, you're upset about your job. I understand that. We're going to go back today and we're going to fix it.::Moody: I want Mahtob to grow up here.::Betty Mahmoody: [increasingly angry] No!::Moody: I think she should become a Muslim!::Betty Mahmoody: [screams] No! No! [pauses] You lied to me. You lied to me! You held the Koran and you swore to me that nothing was going happen. You were planning this all the time. You lied to me!

Betty Mahmoody: Baba Hajji, you're a religious man. How can Moody swear on the Koran and do this to me?::[Mammal translates, Babba Hajji gives an assertive answer and the entire family starts yelling at Betty in Farsi]::Mammal: Allah will forgive him!::[yelling continues, Betty starts crying]::Betty Mahmoody: No, no! Ameh Bozorg! Ameh Bozorg, please help me, please!::[Ameh Bozorg yells at Betty]::Betty Mahmoody: No, you can't do this! God damn you! God damn you! You can't keep me here! You had this planned all along! Damn you!

Betty Mahmoody: [Betty escapes from Moody into town after a violent outburst] Nicole, he's going to kill me!

Houssein: [to Betty] Gardens have always had a special place in Persia throughout our history. In fact, the word "paradise" is a Persian word. It's hard to believe, isn't it, that the idea of paradise will always be intimately connected with Iran. Whenever I think of what's happening to my country, I try to remember its gardens.

[referring to Ellen's husband]::Betty Mahmoody: Was he violent?::Ellen: No, not in the States, never. They're not supposed to, you know. It's not Islamic.

Betty Mahmoody: Have you become Muslim?::Ellen: Mm-hmm.::Betty Mahmoody: Did you convert?::Ellen: Well, I wanted to, I guess. My husband was happy I did. It made things a lot better.::[Ellen sees her husband waiting for her]::Ellen: Uh, I... I got to go.::Betty Mahmoody: Ellen, it's been so...::Ellen: No, really.::[Ellen runs to her husband]

Nicole: If you marry an Iranian man, you automatically become an Iranian citizen. The laws regarding women are very strict. You cannot travel anywhere without written permission. You have no rights to the children. They go to the man in a divorce. I'm sorry, but you *will* have to go back to your husband.::Betty Mahmoody: But we'll never get out of Iran. We're being held hostage! It was almost impossible to come here!::Nicole: Mrs. Mahmoody, there are many American women here in similar circumstances. [pauses] May I ask you why you came to Iran?::Betty Mahmoody: [pauses] I don't know. I don't know.

[Moody laughs unexpectedly]::Betty Mahmoody: What's so funny?::Moody: You know, they think we make love all the time.::Betty Mahmoody: Who?::Moody: The family.::Betty Mahmoody: Why?::Moody: Well... because here, you know, after they make love, they have to take a shower because, you know, they can't pray unless they do, you know. It's considered unclean. And we're taking two, three showers a day!::[Moody continues laughing]::Betty Mahmoody: Oh God! What do they think? We're two rabbits or something!::[Betty is now laughing]::Betty Mahmoody: I'm not taking another shower the whole time I'm here. You *knew* that the whole time!::Moody: They didn't know you were such a swinger!::Betty Mahmoody: You knew that all the long! They were all giggling every time we took a shower.

Betty Mahmoody: My father's ill. He could be dying. I have to go and see him.::Houssein: I don't think your father would have wanted you to go back if it meant losing your daughter.::Betty Mahmoody: Why can't I go and see him, come back, and leave later with Mahtob?::Houssein: You can't leave Mahtob here, not with Moody's family. They're from the provinces, and this regime only encourages them. There are some people who consider a girl ready for marriage at nine years of age. Child brides are not unknown.

Mahtob: Mahtob: I'll be with you... I'll help you

Sing hell yeah!
Sing hell yeah!
Well hell yeah, yeah, yeah,

I've found a place to make a little noise,
I've found a place for all the good girls and boys to
sit and think, about their evolution.
I've found a place to put my head in my hands,
I've found a place to just sneer at the sands of time,
for the evolution.
So take your wheels out imagine there's a turning
around,
You gotta, watch yourself until the sun goes down,
You gotta take each chance of your perfect mind and
make it easier.
You shouldn't, walk around, saying 'duh-duh-dun-duh',
Start denying that acception, overcomes the rules,
We should be honing, holding onto reason.
Cause we can, head on down,
To feed the dying ones,
And don't, look down,
It's just another running,
You can't, slow down,
This world's still turning
While you're sleeping.
So come together round your Hollywood Shrine,
And take another easy chance to unwind,
You crave the soul of a, rich man.
And take another drink of Jesus blood wine,
And wait for heaven while you waste all your time,
You crave the soul of a, rich man.
I've found a place to make a little noise,
I've found a place for all the good girls and boys to
sit and think, about their evolution.
I've found the strength to pull my head from the sand,
I've found the strength to make a fist with this hand,
of mine, for the revolution.
So take your wheels out production and just, put 'em
down.
Spread the word, the earners will be running this town,
You gotta, take each chance of yours and this perfect
mind,
And make it easier.
So come together round your Hollywood Shrine,
And take another easy chance to unwind,
You crave the soul of a, rich man.
Well take a strap from the table, you're cold, yeah,
You're wondering when to go, but you don't have the
rope,
And just,
Crave the soul of a rich man!
Whatcha say?
Whatcha say?
Oh, whatcha say?
Whatcha say?
So come together round your Hollywood Shrine,
And take another easy chance to unwind,
You crave the soul of a, rich man!
And take another drink of Jesus blood wine,
And wait for heaven while you waste all your time,
You crave the soul of a, rich man.
So come together round your Hollywood Shrine,
And take another easy chance to unwind,
You crave the soul of a, rich man!

You've got a nation hiding its ears from the deafening
sound,
Yeah two hundred & twenty years buried deep
underground,
See the people walking on the icons proudly,
Yeah two hundred & twenty years buried deep
underground!
We will begin, living in sin,
We will begin, like a man who's living on dreaming,
We will begin, living in sin,
We will begin.
Listen hard to the cries of the babes snatched from the
breast,
Yeah every government's failed when put to the test,
Legislating & selling off bomb rock,
Listen hard to the cries of the babies snatched from
the breast!
We will begin, living in sin,
We will begin, like the man who's living on dreaming,
We will begin, living in sin,
We will begin, like a man who's living on dreaming.
Raising the ghosts, ending boasts,
Cutting the chains releasing futures,
Raising alarm, turning charms,
Cutting the chains releasing futures,
We will be born again, this rape defeated,
One day of hope when we start believing,
Black, red & yellow, roots have been seeded,
As backs turn on mindsets, with nothing left to defend!
How's it feel now you're defeated?
See the lies get buried deep.
How's it feel now you are defeated?
Not talking crosses,
Not talking books,
Not talking weeds,
Not sharing looks,
Not talking right,
Not talking wrong,
Not planting seeds,
I'm singing songs.
I'm talking cross,
I'm talking books,
I'm spraying weeds,
I'm sharing looks,
I'm taking sides,
We might collide,
It's my divine,
Finding what's right!
Finding what's right!
Raising the ghosts, ending boasts,
Cutting the chains releasing futures,
Raising alarm, turning charms,
Cutting the chains releasing futures!
We will be born again, this rape defeated,
One day of hope when we start believing,
Black, red & yellow, roots have been seeded,
As backs turn on mindsets, with nothing left to defend!
Nothing left to defend!
Nothing left to defend!
Nothing left to defend!
Nothing left to defend!
You've nothing left!
Another flash of huleflurol makes me smile.
I know you've come to take my pain so won't you please
wait a while.
I've all I wanted and the beat was all around me so I'm
fine.
Another flash of huleflurol makes me smile.
Oh no, it's time for you to go,
Oh no, it's time for you to go,
Oh no, it's time for you to go,

Coming in waves from the furthest corners,
Flooding this space disregarding orders,
Sensing the flow as it builds around you,
Staring in wonder as vibrations pound you,
See the freaks and the feathers and I sense the danger,
But it's not my scene to be scared of strangers.
Now the opening was good and it's only getting better,
As the clock kills time pushing all the trend setters,
To check their hats dripping all the fat funk,
And the wasted ideas that we print off every paper.
See the street's with the glue and the push,
But we can't avoid the pull cause it's all around us,
And the rush from the little round pills isn't getting
stronger.
Right now we experience a circle,
Throw away the rage into something more fertile,
The next progression will be ours in time,
Circle can break if you're reading the signs.
Through, this struggle we are changing,
New, ideas will be raging,
You, don't want yourself fading, not this time.
Through, this struggle we are changing,
New, ideas will be raging,
You, don't want yourself fading, no, no, not this time.
It's another stage,
You're going through,
Another wage that's been earning you,
It's another stage,
You're going through.
Now our path's ahead it is only getting easier,
Life stands scattered by unions in a seizure,
The pleasure rings true and it's time to stop and feel,
Lucid and dreaming come together in an instant,
Five earth prada wear my chilling for the innocent,
I've never understood how it comes to be this way.
Right now we experience a circle,
Through, this struggle we are changing,
Throw away our rage into something more fertile,
New, ideas will be raging,
The next progression will be ours in time,
Circle can break if you're reading the signs.
It's another stage,
You're going through,
Another wage that's been earning you,
It's another stage,
You're going through.
Put your hands in the circle.
Put your hands in the circle.
[I, count that, as, attack.]
Let's go!
Aaaaaaah.
Soaking up the rythms, I live what hits me,
Making my decisions with a beat behind me,
A groove junkie first and a leader next,
Looking for the answers with my scribbled text, said
yeah.
Yeah I'm a groove junkie first and a leader next,
Looking for the answers in my scribbled text, so stay!
Won't you stay?
These new vibrations mixing with the old control this
land,
He's got six strings in his hands,
These new vibrations mixing with the old control this
land,
He's got four strings in his hands,
These new vibrations mixing with the old control this
land,
He's got two sticks in his hands,
These new vibrations mixing with the old control this
land,
I got this mic in my hand!
Standing in the middle of a field with fever,
Working on the beat as we try to please ya,
Making 'em singles to improve reception,
Bouncing our fears with a bold deflection!
It's another stage,
You been going through,
Another wage that's been earning you,
Another stage,
You've been going through,
Just another stage,
You've been going through,
Just a stage,
You've been going through,
Just a stage,
You've been going through!
Standing in the field feeling this a-fever,
Locking on the beat tryin to please ya,
Standing in the field feeling this a-fever,
Locking on the beat tryin to please ya,
Hell, hell!
Right now we experience a circle,
(Groove junkie,)
Throw away our rage into something more fertile,
(Groove junkie,)
Soaking up the rythms, as I live what hits me,
(Groove junkie,)
Making my decisions with a beat behind me,
Gota beat behind me!

Cutting through ya,
It'll sue ya,
Never do ya,
Lying awake in bed,
Live the nightmare,
Think they'll play fair?
As they pump you so full of their filth,
Hate your brother,
Fuck your mother,
Learn to lie,
With a smile that's concreted on,
They fly flags,
The poor die,
As the borders expand all around you,
Now you're sweating,
As your betting,
With the odds at impossible numbers,
Secret blow job,
STD knob,
Are you clean or defiled by injections they give?
Finger fuck.
Try your luck,
With the sluts and the slots that you're getting on
screen,
New computer,
Sprays the cum juice,
Feeling loose with one hand left to beat her,
Limbs are flying,
And the spying,
Is the drug that they use to send you away,
Watch the student,
Kill the teacher,
With the counterfeit psalms in his hand,
Never good enough,
Never found love,
Left at home with you dick in your hand,
Working night shift,
Botching face lifts,
As you look at the perfection that you'll never have!
As you look at the perfection that you'll never have!
Take a good look at perfection that you'll never have!
Have I painted a portrait or picture that's clear
enough?
Breast feeding,
Left needing,
As the income is stripped from your womb,
Glossy sex tips,
Over-sized tits,
And the lack of feeling that comes with it,
Daytime drama,
Rots your karma,
And the chains to the sink start cutting your flesh,
Called a bitch whore,
When he wants more,
And the goddess denies with a flick of the wrist,
On fields fights,
Pack rape night,
As the boys and their balls they roll into town,
Painted faces,
Tooth braces,
Take a look cause the mirror's outdated,
Leaning forward,
Can't ignore ya,
I just caught a glimpse of your cellulite,
Sell your fat bits,
Then you cop shit,
For the body that culture delivered you,
This comes the way that it is,
This comes in waves,
As you look at the perfection that you'll never have!
This comes in waves,
As you look at the perfection that you'll never have!
This comes in waves,
Have I painted a portrait or picture that's clear
enough?
Have I painted a portrait or picture that's clear
enough?
Have I painted a portrait or picture that's clear
enough?
Have I painted a portrait or picture that's clear?
[Solo]
This comes the way that it is,
This comes in waves sedative,
This comes the way that it is,
This comes in waves sedative,
This comes the way that it is,
Breast feeding,
Left needing,
As you look at the perfection that you'll never have,
Glossy sex tips,
Over-sized tits,
This comes in waves,
Daytime drama,
Rots your karma,
As you look at the perfection that you'll never have,
Called a bitch whore,
When he wants more,
This comes in waves,
On fields fights,
Pack rape night,
As you look at the perfection that you'll never have,
Painted faces,
Tooth braces,
This comes in waves,
Leaning forward,
Can't ignore ya,
As you look at the perfection that you'll never have,
Take a good look at perfection that you'll never have!
Have I painted a portrait or picture that's clear
enough?
Have I painted a portrait or picture that's clear

It's all gonna run out, it's all gonna burn out,
It's all gonna run out, it's all gonna burn out,
It's all gonna run out, it's all gonna burn out, yeah.)
It's taken as a sin if you don't know what you want,
You're out there sipping lattes, while the rest getting
bombs,
I figure you're a whinger if you don't want more,
Then the next piece of fashion that they whore in every
store so,
Tick out the box, your brain'll be pleased,
They're forming product based alliances as sex becomes
sleaze,
As you ponder on your warmth, you neglect all your
needs,
I don't need to criticise I'm just here to plant seeds,
yeah.
(It's all gonna run out, yeah, it's all gonna burn out,
It's all gonna run out, it's all gonna burn out, yeah.)
As our world is turning,
Signs emerge with learning,
As the world is turning,
Signs emerge with learning,
And as the world is turning,

As the world is turning,
Signs emerge with learning.
(It's all gonna run out, heh, it's all gonna burn out,
huh,
It's all gonna run out, heh, it's all gonna burn out,)
Well now the human race is smarter than just nations
and flags,
And we can still philosophize when we are dressed up in
rags,
I'll be drinking my own sewerage before I give up this
chance,
Forget about your mortgage we just came here to dance.
(It's all gonna work out,)
It's all gonna work out,

Come in crawling and I can,
Raise you up.
Today we're walking,
Today we learn about what it is I've been doing.
Tomorrow's all man,
Tomorrow we use our tongues to get through it.
Come in crawling and I can,
Raise you up.
So turn your mind to the ideas and watch as all your idols fall.
We watch you learn as all the bother and the hassle just makes a stall.
We seperate the black and white to make it certain where we stand.
We grope around, deaf and blind, looking for a single helping, helping, helping hand.
Come in crawling and I can,
Raise you up.
We're never balking, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah!
You're bending rules like there's never even been a reason,
Fooling fools, and I, I see you coming undone,
We'll down our tools and then rally to control position,
We'll break what you're bending!
Break what you're bending!
Well just a touch of realisation, has come in to play,
Yeah you're reading from the list that that's your war torn today,
You want to feel it in your body that your people are free,
You wanna, find a cure for the cold disease that you got.
Come in crawling and I can,
Raise you up.
We're never balking, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah!
You're bending rules like there's never even been a reason,
Fooling fools, and I, I see you coming undone,
We'll down our tools and then rally to control position,
We'll break what you're bending!
Break what you're bending!
Huh!
You're bending rules.
You're bending rules like there's never even been a reason,

We'll break what you're bending!
Yeah!
Yeah!
Yeah!
Well up, down...
You're bending rules like there's never even been a reason,
Fooling fools, and I, I see you coming undone,
We'll down our tools and then rally to control position,
We'll break what you're bending!
Break what you're bending!

This calm spring makes me ashamed of myself
I should've said, could've done, I could've been a
pretender is what I am.
Yeah I've read the books
Studied the looks
But it's left me without action
My point
Is that I have one.
I said I have one -
You got one?
A description of this world and it's failing's isn't
gonna be enough
I've gotta find the point
Ditch the joint and have a glass of water
Yeah I'm a loser she said
And I bought in
So I guess there must be truth to the rumour
My strength
Is that I have some.
I said I have some.
So come down
And lower your eyes
Burn the flag
And learn to be what you despise
I'll only feel it for a moment
I'll only feel it like a slow drip
I'll only feel it for a moment
Why don't you come down
Come on down
Come on down
Find that we have got it all
'Cause I see
All this beauty
And I just wanna help a little
And we know
That the answers
They lie somewhere
Out in the middle of the aether
Why don't you come down
And lower your eyes
And find out
That we've got it all.
I see the beauty and I just wanna help myself
I see the beauty raining down from the top shelf I said
I see the beauty and I just wanna help a little
Help a little.
Hallelujah!
All my brothers and sisters
Hallelujah!
You don't wanna miss this
Hallelujah!
For a sacred moment
Hallelujah!
'Cause you know we own it all
We want the guns
We want the bombs
We want the glory
We want the story
We want it all
We want it all
We want it all
Step back!
'Cause you've got what we want right now
Divvy up the goodies and then share them around
I said come down!

Looks like a target to me,
Looks like a target to me,
Yeah!
What did you expect?
I'm not delighted that we've falling behind.
I'm not delighted that we're stalling this time.
I'm not delighted that we're foreign this time.
I'm not delighted.
And I'm inciting,
And I'm inviting,
I'm inciting.
Looks like a target to me.
In keeping breathing running down,
Go back to sleep and wear your frown,
In keeping breathing run you down,
Go back to sleep and wear your frown,
What did you expect?
What did you expect?
Contracts,
Fall back,
Make that,
One thing that you just might stand for,
Contracts,
Fall back,
Make that,
One thing that you just might stand for,
I'm not excited that you made up your mind.
I'm not excited that you shifted the line.
I'm not excited that there's nothing that's mine.
I'm not excited, so I'm inciting.
And I'm inciting,
And I'm inviting,
I'm inciting.
I'm inciting.
What did you expect from thinking that men and women
are natural?
Did you expect us to all go down under?
And wash our hands our chance to tell you we got no
respect,
Up with your hands it's just a riot,
(So riot away!)
In keeping weeding burning down,
Go back to sleep and wear your frown,
In keeping breathing burn that whole street down,
Go back to sleep and wear your wear your wear your
frown,
What did you expect?
What did you expect?

It is a familiar place that the road leads toward.
Forever dying and stripped of all but nothing and fed to
nothing.
Wide eye cannot see the beyond, they will not look upon
it's face.
The ride to that which has no soul, the ride to
nothingness.
Words fall empty, words filled with heart
The wide distance pulls us apart.
Horses are rapid and ready. White light chases light.

Hey Mr. Devil, got some questions thought I'd ask you
today.
You're sniffing round and taking pund for pound my
flesh and decay.
And with flashes round, burning down, bet you're proud.
And I know that you, been feeding the fire,
And I watch as, you, you're driving it higher,
Hey Mr. Devil.
Switchblade out for the counter-attack.
Hey Mr. Devil do you really think you're empire won't
fall?
With every blow you strike you;re making angels out of
us all.
And why are you scorching round, that you found, carry
sounds.
And I know that you, been feeding the fire,
And I watch as, you, you're driving it higher,
Creeping up behind me Mr. Devil.
With your switchblade out and your counter-attack.
Oh, creeping up behind me Mr. Devil.
Oh, With your switchblade out and the counter-attack, I
said.
Oh, with your switchblade out and your counter-attack,
You're soul's in peril lying flat on it's back, again!
Oh, with your switchblade out and your counter-attack,
You're soul's in peril lying flat on it's back, again!
I'm, trying to put you away.
You've got us on fire,
And yeah, you, been driving it higher,
I said, you, you've got us on fire,
And yeah, you, always a liar, liar, liar, liar!
Can you hear me Mr. Devil?
Are you listening Mr. Devil?
Here we come now Mr. Devil,
Oh, we're coming for you.
Can you hear me Mr. Devil?
Are you listening Mr. Devil?
Here we come now Mr. Devil,

Take these flames as discovery,
Put yourself where the air is breathed,
In the space, that's not planted poison seeds,
Find your name like a slave who's freed,
Animal, curb all your killing,
Mineral, use what you're willing,
Cannibal, conserve your own kind,
Cause your perch is settltled and soft like the arms of
an angel,
Wrap me tight, to fly and I'm sick and tired,
But I will to fight for the end of the class,
That is bourgeoisie!
So feel your instincts open wide,
(You got it,)
And feel your motion sickness die,
(You know it,)
And feel your instincts open wide,
So show your friends and don't delay,
(You got it,)
that every goddess born can bleed,
(You know it,)
So feel your instincts open wide,
Animal, curb all your killing,
Mineral, use what you're willing,
Cannibal, conserve your own kind as you suck the poison
down,
Sick of this, I'll take what you give me,
so Humour it, the losers forgive me, and,
Understand, this isn't emotion,
It's learning aggression: my kind of potion!
So feel your instincts open wide,
(You got it,)
And feel your motion sickness die,
(You know it,)
And feel your instincts open wide,
So show your friends and don't delay,
(You got it,)
that every goddess born can bleed,
(You know it,)
So feel your instincts open wide,
Feel your instincts,
Feel your in-stincts,
Tap my shell,
I said, tap my shell,
Tap my shell,
Tap my shell,
Tap my shell,
Tap my shell,
Tap my shell,
Tap my shell,
Tap my shell,
Tap my shell,
Tap my shell,
Up and down and all around this porno is,
Making me hate my sisters, brothers we,
All know now, we're doing, we shouldn't take,
Nagasaki in flames as discovery,
Take these flames as discovery,
Take these flames as discovery,
Cause my perch is settltled and soft like the arms of
an angel,
Wrap me tight, to fly and I'm sick and tired,
But I will to fight for the start of the class,
That is discovery!
So feel your instincts open wide,
(You got it,)
And feel your motion sickness die,
(You know it,)

You stand behind your curtain like a bold faced liar,
We know every word you say is an untruth,
Yeah your eyes believe your belittling status,
And I think to myself, man there's just got to be
something better,
For this and every new breed Judas, if we'd only face
ourselves and simplify!
You! (You!)
Only made me this way!
And I! (I!)
Got a method for disposing of your petty little system!
You! (You!)
You're the poster boy for shame!
And I! (I!)
Gotta state and make it clear so you can understand!
Can you understand?
Take my expense, this time I've come to,
Tell it all, in front of you.
Take my expense, this time I've come to,
Tell it all, tell it all.
Tell it all.
Tell it all.
Tell it all!
So use every force arm you can,
And bite at my clean helping hand,
I'll say this real clear so you all understand!
You! (You!)
Only made me this way!
And I! (I!)
Got a method for disposing of your petty little system!
You! (You!)
You're the poster boy for shame!
And I! (I!)
Gotta state and make it clear so you all can
understand!
So now I stand alone behind my iron curtain,
And I breathe every breath through my iron lung,
You're just a chemical reaction within a perfection,

Well I got a problem now,
You made it mine,
Showing me your weakness,
I assumed that you were stronger.
And it's not the greed that holds us back,
Just the lie, we're inferior
I assumed that we were family,
So I just though I'd mention,
Try to ease a little tension.
The bed I lie in was made by you,
This band of brothers will make it through,
And if loving you means hating you, then I refuse.
And if loving you means hating you, then I refuse.
I won't imagine pain cause it walks beside me.
And we're turning the screw right now,
We're not there yet but at least we're trying.
I'm not phased by their opinion,
So, just tear the fall back plan,
And scatter it to winds cause we're preparing,
For the Rubicon in the path of Gower.
And if loving you means hating you, then I refuse.
And if loving you means hating you, then I refuse.
I can feel what's coming.
To know you makes me proud to do this loud, it's over-
rained it,
We'll be whole when the fear has left us,
So just take a path or shout,
Every word we can just completely,
And remember,
This is my religion.
[Solo.]
We open up, open up,
Face the glare from the future,
We open up, open up,
Face the glare from the future,
We open up, open up,
Face the glare from the future,
We open up, open up,
Face the glare from the future.
To know you makes me proud to do this loud, it's over-
rained it,
We'll be whole when the fear has left us,
So just take a path or shout,
Every word we can just completely,
And remember,
This is my religion.
This is my religion!
This is my religion!

I got the fuel flowing up inside me and it's growing,
Got some fiction issues watch them as they're
parasoling,
Domination, suffocation, relaxation, celebration,
As they ponder what it is, to be,
Ponder what it is, to be.
Oo-ooh,
You've won the first race how exciting that a heartless
one is left to run,
Oo-ooh,
I'm feeling powerless I'm just a speck of dust circling
round the sun,
Oo-ooh,
Oh but the killing and the fighting over dead and make
you think it's sane,
Oo-ooh,
They both apologise the turning tide is black and all
the bullets are game.
Shall we be slaves?

power they crave,
Oo-ooh,
Another phonecall cause the pace and all the shouting
couldn't be maintained,
Oo-ooh,
You pray forgiveness but you know there is no Jesus you
will never be saved.
Shall we be slaves?

Shall we pay price?
The eight hour day!
I got the fuel flowing up inside me and it's growing,
Got some friction issues watch them as they're

Domination, suffocation, relaxation, celebration,
As we ponder what it is, to be,

Heh - Yeah, I know what you're thinking.
You're thinking two more years of this,
I’m gonna chuck it in and move to an easier place,
You're thinking two dollars a litre doesn't really look
that far away,
And you're thinking as you look at your ring finger,
Hmm, was that really the right decision?
Hell yeah, yeah, I know what you're thinking.
You're thinking if I'd been given the chance to express
myself,
Develop my inner guru,
Then I could be that gorgeous, tanned, blonde 19 year
old,
Pouring sickly black holy water down my throat,
Right now, in digital widescreen perfection!
I know what you're thinking!
They don't want you thinking!
And I know what you're thinking!
I know what you're thinking!
They don't want you thinking!
But I know what you're thinking!
(So think!)
Yeah, I know what you're thinking.
I know what you're thinking, you're thinking,
Blah blah another newspaper headline,
I know what you're thinking, you're thinking,
Oh if I’d had a little more time,
I know what you're thinking, you're thinking,
If I could read I’d make sense of that sign.
Oh yeah, oh yeah, i know what you're thinkin',
You're thinking if he said yes and we said no,
And they went and did it anyway,
We must have no choice at all right?
Well you're wrong,
You gotta soup it up and walk tall, yeah,
You wanna get there?
It's just not working is it?
Well, we know what you're thinking!
You try to hide your eyes,
Make light of all the lies,
But I know,
Just what you're thinking,
You come and tie your ties,
And run away from surprise,
I know what you're thinking!
Yeah I know what you're thinking!
I know what you're thinking,
You're thinking this looks just as bad here in the shop
as it did in the catalogue,
As you look in your wallet and realise you've been
ripped off and you like it,
I know what you're thinking; you're thinking oh no, not
me, not ever,
Oh yeah? I know what you're thinking!
You try to hide your eyes,
Make light of all the lies,
But I know,
Just what you're thinking,
You come to tie your ties,
And run away from surprise,
I know what you're thinking!
Yeah I know what you're thinking!
You're thinking one more day of this,
And I'm gonna break,
Bust out and make a mistake I could regret for the rest
of my life!
Aaaaaaagh!
I don't know what I'm thinking!
I don't know what I'm thinking!
You try to hide your eyes,
Make light of all the lies,
But I know,
Just what you're thinking,
You come to tie your ties,
And run away from surprise,
I know what you're thinking!
Yeah I know what you're thinking!
I know what you're thinking,
(Fight back, think that, fight back)
I know what you're thinking,
(Fight back, think that, fight back)
Yeah I know what you're thinking,
You're thinking you're a mouse click,
A drag and a piece of autotune away from being a pop

Glass of milk
Standing in between extinction in the cold
and explosive radiating growth.
So the warm blood flows
Through the large four-chambered heart,
Maintaining the very high metabolism rate they have.
Mammal, mammal
Their names are called
They raise a paw
The bat, the cat
Dolphin and dog
Koala bear and hog
One of us might lose his hair
But you're reminded that it once was there
From the embryonic whale to the monkey with no tail.
So the warm blood flows
with the red blood cells, lacking nuclei
Through the large four-chambered heart
Maintaining the very high metabolism rate they have
Mammal, mammal
Their names are called
They raise a paw
The bat, the cat
Dolphin and dog
Koala bear and hog
Placental the sister of her brother Marsupial
Their cousin called Monotreme
Dead uncle Allotheria

(Ow!)
We never had a million dollars,
Never had the big fat coffers,
All we had was a need to do our thing now.
We hit the road with the motor running,
Foot to the floor and the bassline humming,
The drum beat never lacked the status -
You want the truth?
Well just ask us.
We're not asking,

We ain't no hit machine -
We're just here to please your soul.
What we had was a crowd of mammals,
Brought to the floor by the aural channel,
And we're asking you to raise your voice now.
It started small but it's getting bigger,
Funk gun cocked and we'll pull the trigger,
Fist in the face blending the old and new -
You want the proof?
Well let me tell ya,
We've been hung up on computers,
Chat rooms, bills and china dolls,
We've been numb; full of duty,
What's it feel like to be bold?

I've found a place for all the good girls and boys to
sit and think, about their evolution.

I've found a place to just sneer at the sands of time,
for the evolution.
So take your wheels out imagine there's a turning
around,
You gotta, watch yourself until the sun goes down,
You gotta take each chance of your perfect mind and
make it easier.

Start denying that acception, overcomes the rules,
We should be honing, holding onto reason.
Cause we can, head on down,
To feed the dying ones,
And don't, look down,
It's just another running,
You can't, slow down,
This world's still turning
While you're sleeping.
So come together round your Hollywood Shrine,
And take another easy chance to unwind,
You crave the soul of a, rich man.
And take another drink of Jesus blood wine,
And wait for heaven while you waste all your time,
You crave the soul of a, rich man.
I've found a place to make a little noise,
I've found a place for all the good girls and boys to
sit and think, about their evolution.
I've found the strength to pull my head from the sand,

of mine, for the revolution.
