from the ultra-violet to the infra-red i said
i've got to keep it on and that till all my fear's fled
all my tears shed - all the years sped by
they said try but strive as i might the light remains out of sight, I
fly in the sky up high with my dreams, then i wake, double-take
But it seems all that gleams isn't gold like they told us:
they stitched us up and sold us
They break us and fake us, remake and remould us

The hole in the ozone messes with my telephone:
Left on my own just a drone all alone,
but if i don't stay connected, how can i be protected?
directed? inspected? injected? infected?
corrected? reminded of the true world view-
all for me, none for you, i've got a low I.Q.
but i love mrs thatcher and she loves me too:-
No money for the many cause it's all for the few

from the infra-red to the ultra-violet,
my mind's set to standby, my soul to auto-pilot
and i'm silently violently screaming inside
it feels like the whole world lied and turned snide, the pride
was just before a fall, now there's nothing left at all
From the large to the small, from the short to the tall
Last chance, last call before you're up against the wall
Hell's around the corner so it's a hell of a long haul
Back to Eden: which way is the road leading?
cause it breaks my heart to sit and watch the little children bleeding
On my T.V. set, in the papers that i'm reading
The news in the morning with the warning no-one's reading
Realization's slowly dawning that their sycophantic fawning gets you
Nowhere; i swear they're sure to catch you yawning
You're informing on your friends for your own greedy ends
Will that get you where you're going to? My friend it all depends...

From the infra-red to the ultra-violet,
From the ultra-violet to the infra-red:
It's all just as wicked as it was all the while, yet
We were the leaders, sure as we were led

From the infra-red to the ultra-violet,
from the ultra-violet to the infra-red
We've got ourselves to thank for the mines and the tanks
For the terror and the horror the despair and the dread...
