Micro-chips and fish
Micro-chips and fish
Micro-chips and fish
Micro-chips and fish
The hungry numbers all cry out
The hungry numbers all cry out.
The speech on a mountain
A speech on a mountain,
Or downhill on the valleyside
Or downhill on the valley-side.
Hot air rots the vegetables
Hot air rots the vegetables.
Welcome what's been spoiled
Work on what's been spoilt.
All together, all aboard
All together, all apart,
All bound up in disarray
All bound up in disarray.


Chaos and order
Chaos 'n' order 'n' salt 'n' vinegar
And salt and vinegar
Micro-chips & fish:
Micro-chips and fish
The mirror of the times.
The mirror or the times
Hope crashes out.
Hope crushes out  
Show them some power.
Show them some power
The fervent prayers of all mankind
The further ? of all mankind
Can confound a simple aim
Can't confound a simple aim
Can confound a simple aim
Can't confound a simple aim
Can confound a simple aim
Can't confound a simple aim

Break it up, go on, break it up
Break it up, break it up
Break it up, break it up
Break it up, break it up
Break it up, break it up

Lyrics

Micro-chips and fish Micro-chips and fish The hungry numbers all cry out. A speech on a mountain, Or downhill on the valley-side. Hot air rots the vegetables. Work on what's been spoilt. All together, all apart, All bound up in disarray.

Chaos 'n' order 'n' salt 'n' vinegar Micro-chips & fish: The mirror of the times. Hope crashes out. Show them some power. The fervent prayers of all mankind Can confound a simple aim Can confound a simple aim Can confound a simple aim
