WIRE
"A Flat Tent"

Reset your circuit breakers
Carry out undertakers
Blow away the slightest traces
Deal yourself a hand of aces
New techniques for self-transmission
GPS, pin-point position
Product recourse making hay days
Target locked on head-up display

Return to favourite places
Commissioned art in public spaces
Regurgitate in a panic
Regenerate, post-Hispanic
Blackouts cover, blind attraction
Magnetic souls give mental traction
Run-away days, weekend saviours
Harbours with a hundred flavours

Be a man down
Be a psycho relic
Face a lock-down
Become vitriolic
Relate closely
Mother money
Melancholic
Apostolic

Roll out your measured phrases
Find yourself in yellow pages
Degenerate into static
Empire building democratic
Nude review provides salvation
Chance encounters, assignations
Planting weeds in deep incisions
Scourge yourself with Holy visions

Be a man down
Be a psycho relic
Face a lock down
Become vitriolic
Relate closely
Mother money
Melancholic
Apostolic

In a clamp down
Get pre-historic
Lock a face down
Key is electronic
Deflate slowly
Mother honey
Melancholic
Embryonic
