Olympia
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
What you want, you say you,
You gonna get it easy
What you need, say really,
Electronic digit!
Scientific sell me
So terrific to do
Counting fifty-two, plus micro-chip
Plus you're so serious
Eventide delay
Digital delay
Anytime you meet superstition
Just add thoughts to advision
Then cross collateralise and
Subsidised by television
Media media, push to ninety-five
Set to stabilise,
Mark One plus two eighty five
Olympia
Just listen watch
And watch more closely now
Such new machines self-loading
Acquire a taste for you
Spells the name remains the same
Shouts of prophet laughter
Set to spellbind you the viewer
To view the voyager.
Eventide delay
Eventide delay
Monitor special moments
That turn to history
The sound can bring you
Whatever you need
Attention Attention
Within the groove
Sharp sophistication
Computer Casio overdrive
Olympia
Through these hallowed halls
Sing into these ears
Songs of infinite
My child Media
What you want, Electronic Music
What you have, such Symphonic Music
Sanyo, Sony, power multiply by hour
Computer redesign?
Riding out in scale of nine
Eventide Delay
Digital Delay
Anytime you need the Truth
Tune in and turn the key
True Media Media Media
You know you've got to me!!
