Everyone in the universe Has gone to somewhere else Where have they gone? Where have they gone? Where have they gone? Where have they gone? Where have they gone? Where have they gone? Where have they gone? Where have they gone now? Everyone in the universe Has gone to somewhere else Everyone in the universe Well they just up and left Where have they gone? Where have they gone? Where have they gone? Where have they gone? Where have they gone? Where have they gone? Where have they gone? Where have they gone? I'm so alone So, so alone now Yeah I just wanna go home I just wanna go home, baby I just wanna go home I just wanna go home, baby To the universe They've gone to somewhere else Everyone in the universe Has gone to somewhere else now

Idle Hands 04:17
Idle hands, come on and work your magic All my plans are hereby cancelled today I don’t understand the real source of the panic But here I am, on my own and stranded Looking at the waves Breaking on the shore Always coming back Coming back for more And now my work is done I can just sit back and observe the mess Idle hands, go on and do your damage I’m not scared, I crawl under the blankets And I’m nowhere, no longer on this planet I’m up in the air Looking at the waves Breaking on the shore Always coming back Coming back for more And now my work here’s done I’m gonna just sit back and observe the mess And was it worth the suffering Well maybe not, I guess - but then Then again Idle hands

Night Watch 01:57
Out on night watch tonight Out on night watch tonight Got to keep us safe from all the danger It's so lonely tonight (Night watch) Out on night watch tonight Looking out my window Darkness hovers round me like death It's so lonely tonight All alone tonight All alone tonight All alone tonight All alone tonight

What happens now, now that I’ve done what I wanted to do What happens now, tell me what’s happening with you It’s good to revisit who you used to be What happens now, is it all the way back to square one Figuring out who it is you’re supposed to become But it’s good to realise that some things never change Although it’s bound to leave you feeling strange For weeks at a time It’s all wrong - it’s alright Waking up in paradise Waking up in paradise Another day in paradise Waking up in paradise Early morning But it’s good to revisit who you used to be It’s good to revisit who you used to be

In the morning Early in the morning With almost no warning There’s a strange bird calls my name again When I wake up, ringing through my head Back to you - finding a way to manoeuvre on through Back to you, and to me too Bad move - trying to make it look foolproof Back to you, and what can you do Who knows what you’ll do Movers and shakers They’re all at the party All moving their bodies For the karaoke It’s a corporate do With all kinds of finger food (for you) And then the clock’s striking ten That’s when I hear my name again There it goes again Back to you - finding a way to manoeuvre on through Back to you, and to me too Bad move - acting out like it’s all on you Back to you, it’s all I do I come back to you (Manoeuvring on through to the other side)
