They give our homes more life
They make our work more easy
They serve both man and wife

You don’t turn them off
You just turn them on
You don’t turn them off
You just turn them on
Cataclysm near averted
Time to calm the fuck back down
Exoticism is back in style
Luxuriate, indulge and smile

Topsy Turvy World (demo)
03:46

When you get to the edge of reality
You have to keep going
Until you find the topsy-turvy world
About which we’ve been conferring
Where the top of your head
Meets the base of your neck
Where you remember nothing
That you can’t forget
When you get to the edge of reality
You have to keep going
The Topsy-Turvy Man
Is in a Gingerbread Town
And all the broken tin men
Wear their smiles like frowns
Where the sun comes up
At the end of the day
And chases all the abstract
Demons away
When you come to the end of circumstance
You have to move forward
Always a situation to circumvent
Pushing us onward
Toward a direction that you might lament
You won’t regret your choices
Once you cross the edge of reality
And begin to hear the voices
Where the Topsy-Turvy Man
Is in a Gingerbread Town
And all the broken tin men
Wear their smiles like frowns
Where the sun comes up
At the end of the day
And chases all the abstract
Demons away
Where the Topsy-Turvy Man
Is in a Gingerbread Town
And all the broken tin men
Wear their smiles like frowns
Where the sun comes up
At the end of the day
And chases all the abstract
Demons away
One, two, three!
Where the Topsy-Turvy Man
Is in a Gingerbread Town
And all the broken tin men
Wear their smiles like frowns
Where the sun comes up
At the end of the day
And chases all the abstract
Demons away
Where the Topsy-Turvy Man
Is in a Gingerbread Town
And all the broken tin men
Wear their smiles like frowns
Where the sun comes up
At the end of the day
And chases all the abstract
Demons away
On the base of your neck sits the top of your head
On the base of your neck sits the top of your head

Crunching down on fallen broken parts
Bolts and nuts are lying everywhere
Zombie robots callously attacking us
How to find a place that's safe - not anywhere
Inhuman and undead
Subhuman thought analysis
Fervent and imperious
Uncertain trajectory
No recalls back to the factory
Will persuade them to change course
My friends are still out there somewhere
Lost and trying to survive
Inhuman and undead
Subhuman thought analysis
Fervent and imperious
Uncertain trajectory
Claustrophobic
Unsafe to go out
Teeming with trouble
Seeming unbearable
Beaming messages from a light house
Streaming out from lobbies and hallways
Burning forests on the perimeter
Lurking menace on roads and highways
Somewhere out there
Zombie robots
Somewhere out there
Zombie robots
Somewhere out there
Zombie robots
Somewhere out there
Zombie robots

Oh, the drugs have stopped working
Oh, the darkness is lurking
Oh, and the crystal ball's murky
All my duties I'm shirking
Oh, I can no longer feel them
Oh, I can no longer breathe them
Oh, and the crystal ball's murky
Oh, because the drugs have stopped working
So turn the light on!
So flick your flame on!
Let the incense burn in your eyes
Let life bring you a surprise
Let it be as it is…
And let it come as it will
Oh, tolerance and relapse
All disconnects and synapse
Too many taxes and contracts
Don't trust any of those "true facts"
Just turn the light on!
And flick your flame on!
Let the incense burn in your eyes
Let life bring you its surprise
Let it be as it is…
And let it come as it will
Because the drugs have stopped working
And the darkness is lurking
And the crystal ball's murky
Because the drugs have stopped working

Oh, don’t want to lose it now
Oh oh, don’t want to lose it now
Ah, worked so hard to get here now
Ah, so hard to get here now
Oh oh, don’t want to lose you now
Oh oh, don’t want to lose you now
Ah, took some time to make it now
Oh, took some time to work it out
And my body starts to break down
And my mind it stars to break down
Better hold up and take it straight down
That road you do not want to go down
Oh, don’t want to lose it now
Oh oh, don’t want to lose it now
Oh, worked so hard to get here now
Ah, worked so hard to get here now
All the while, some illusion was pushin’ on me
All the while, some intrusion was infecting me
And my body starts to break down
And my mind it starts to break down
Oh, don’t want to lose you now
Oh oh, don’t want to lose you now
Ah, took some time to make it now
Oh, took some time to work it out
Oh, don’t want to lose it now
Oh oh, don’t want to lose it now
