Hypermarket: The Neuromancer Songs

1. introduction (the hypermarket)

the very last night of the millenium

i saw mighty starships

crashed down on burning metropoles

i saw casuals

and gothicks

deformations of the flesh

i saw the plague and the saints returning

and dying scared

i was told: This is future

a Hypermarket

buy or sell

2.postwar time (the watchmens despair)

follow the highway where beetles sleepy crawl

i know youve seen all the shadows run

the worlds turned to rubbish

and now your love has gone to Mars

the stars are so peaceful

the suns covered with blood and pus

snow fills the roadholes

biohazard along your trail

i know youve seen all the soldiers march

airplanes like dead cranes

decomposing on coalblack sand

the moon is so peaceful

brightens up the shame of your land

once you caught some violence

to keep it deep inside

i know youd like to set it free

set it free again

3. visitors (straylight door)

shining reflections through the trees and branches

bodies are dancing a madmens twist

is this the light? is this the vision?

ancient commands are alive in their heads

dancing the slavery walk against heartsound

perceive the liquid blackened eyes

the insect skins

never been buried

forgotten no more

they want to dance with everything

this could be the light

this aint a fiction

4.burning chrome (lovers in utter agony)

she was a fragrant girl with skin steel-sleeky

a face of a child

with eyes belonging to a deep sea trench

bringing death to me i felt her blackrust hair

she told me that the stars are made of diamond ice

shes burning now

changing
