Heart of Darkness (04:51)
Pere Ubu • Terminal Tower
Maybe you see further than I can see,
or maybe things just look differently
Maybe I'm nothing but a shadow on the wall
Maybe love's a tomb where you dance at night
Maybe sanctuary is an electric light
I get so tired it's like I'm another man,
and everything I see seems so underhanded
I don't see anything that I want,
and I don't see anything that I want

Image, object and illusion
go down to the corner
where none of the faces fit a human form,
where nothing I see there isn't deformed,
where in a secret lab works a Doctor Moreau,
and no private eye's gotta tell me it's a long goodbye
I get so tired it's like I'm another man,
and everything I see seems so underhanded
I don't see anything that I want,
and I don't see anything that I want

Looking into the heart of darkness

30 Seconds Over Tokyo (06:28)
Pere Ubu • Terminal Tower
Flew off early in the haze of dawn
In a metal dragon locked in time,
Skimming waves of an underground sea
In some kind of a dream world fantasy

Sun a hot circle on a canopy,
'25 a racing blot on a bright green sea
Ahead the dim blur of an alien land,
Time to give ourselves to strange gods' hands

Dark flak spiders bursting in the sky,
Reaching twisted claws on every side
No place to run,
No place to hide,
No turning back on a suicide ride

Toy city streets crawling through my sights,
Sprouting clumps of mushrooms like a world surreal
This dream won't ever seem to end,
And time seems like it'll never begin
30 seconds,
And a one way ride
30 seconds,
And no place to hide
30 seconds over tokyo

Final Solution (05:05)
Pere Ubu • Terminal Tower
the girls won't touch me cuz I got a misdirection
living at night isn't helping my complexion
signs all said it's a social infection
ilttle bit a fun now I get an insurrection

my mom kicked me out till I get some pants that fit
she just won't approve of my strange kinda wit...
I get so excited I always gotta lose it
man they sent me off, man I'm takin cures

don't need a cure (x3)
need a final solution!
don't need a cure (x3)
need a final solution!

buy me a ticket to a sonic reduction
tires gonna sound like a nuclear destruction
seems I'm a victim of natural selection
meet me on the other side not a direction

don't need a cure (x3)
need a final solution
don't need a cure (x3)
need a final solution

solution...
solution...
solution...
solution!

My Dark Ages (04:02)
Pere Ubu • Terminal Tower
In the dark I get so confused
I fall in love like I fall from grace
I wander round,
wonder where I went
I wander round,
wonder where I went through the,
the blank spaces,
and the,
the empty places,
and
I don't get around & I don't fall in love

I need a car that can get me around
at night in the city where the air can shine
We'll drive around,
and oh!,
we'll fall in love
We'll drive around,
and oh!,
we'll fall in love
and
things will be alright
things'll be alright
things will be alright
things'll be alright
and
I don't get around & I don't fall in love much

Humor Me (02:57)
Pere Ubu • Terminal Tower
Oh

It was the first thing that I saw
You never see that kind of Classical Girl
Understand
It was the first thing that I saw
That was fate
It was the ballistics!
No
that was fate

It was a world
What a world!
What a world?
What a big world
But a world to be drowned in
It's just a joke man!

Another day?
Well
SUFFER
for that's the way of the west
SUFFER
Oh
Oh it's a joke!

It's a joke
Oh
It's a JOKE
That's a joke?
Hunh-unh
Well
humor me

Not Happy (03:28)
Pere Ubu • Terminal Tower
Can't we be happy?
Can't we be happy like the swimming turtles?
Can't we be happy like the bumble bees on the River Tees?
When they buzz they buzz in harmonies!
Can't we be happy like them?
I wanna know
I am happy when you are happy,
and you are happy when I am happy,
so let's be happy!

Can't we be happy?
Can't we be happy like the tiny mice?
Can't we be happy like the oddball birds of South America?
The oddball birds of South America are happy
Can't we be happy like them?
I wanna know
I am happy when you are happy,
and you are happy when I am happy,
so let's be happy
