Lyrics
More Heat Than Light
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.
The Imperial disaster in it's furious decline
They been burning down the ghettoes, burning down the ghettos
Crossing all of the lines
And everyone gets so excited as it all starts to bite
Giving out, giving out, radiating
More heat than light
More heat than light
He been drooling on the mirror in the back of the van
If he can do it, if he can do it, if he can do it
I think anybody can
He been polishing the dolphin, you never seen a beast so bright
Radiating, radiating, giving out
More heat than light
More heat than light
More heat than light
More heat than light
I'm gonna use the best machines
I'm gonna use the best machines
I'm gonna use the best machines
I'm gonna use the best machines
They started shooting at the shadows
I think the shadow's shooting back
Rattling the cages, rattling the cages, got the devil in the sack
A convincing meditation
On the splendour of the night
Giving out, giving out, radiating
More heat than light
More heat than light
More heat than light
More heat than light
Dodgy little man
With a fever in his eyes
You say 'put them with the others, put them with the others -
You should never analyse'
He fucked the watermelon women like a thief in the night
All the time, all the time, radiating
More heat than light
More heat than light
More heat than light
More heat than light
More heat than light
More heat than light
More heat than light
More heat than light
More heat than light
More heat than light
More heat than light
More heat than light
