SKYCLAD
"Tunnel Visionaries"
(Music: Dave Pugh/ Lyrics: Martin Walkyier)

"Nobody could have conceived in the final decade of the 20th century
That our humble affairs were being manipulated by computer interface
Not a soul could have surmised that the lives of billions
Were of less consequence than a decimal point in the stock exchanges of the world

And yet across the polished boardroom tables
Beings immensely more devious than ourselves surveyed this defiled planet with jaundiced eyes
And swiftly and ruthlessly, they hatched foul plots against us"
