HEAD RUSH
The clamour and the glamour
Meets itself coming back
Elastic plastic waif child
A curve ball of attack
The reaching and the preaching
You know it is all lies
Cruel jewelled God’s eye
From Lord of the Flies

Look me up, look me up, wherever you are
Look me up, look me up, I haven’t gone far
Look me up, look me up wherever you are
Look me up, look me up, I haven’t gone far

The pushing and the shoving
All trying to get in front
Frantic antics crawl along
Life is just a stunt
The sulking and the skulking
Politics of hate
Jammed in the slammer
Prisoners of fate

Look me up, look me up, wherever you are
Look me up, look me up, I haven’t gone far
Look me up, look me up wherever you are
Look me up, look me up, I haven’t gone far

The calling and the stalling
Sees itself in the glass
Coming from the left field
All life is a farce
The leaving and the grieving
Of love’s labours lost
Wide tides the full Moon
The land bears the cost

Look me up, look me up, wherever you are
Look me up, look me up, I haven’t gone far
Look me up, look me up wherever you are
Look me up, look me up, I haven’t gone far

Fun Facts:
* The lyrics for this song were written 9th April 2011.
* There was always something a bit Hawkwind about this track, right from the creation and the first demo.
* The addition of the second guitar gave the track a slight Ultravox or maybe The Fall feel.
* Although the synths aren’t quite right, they are in the right general area.
