Hamid Arshee was a headcase in Afghanistan
And he was eager to move wherever he can
For a new young broken dream.
Well he thought that fireworks bursting into kids balloons
Meant that it would all come to pass so soon-
All his new young broken dreams
Why can't we just tear ourselves away?
Theres a jam in god's machine, singing
Uh-oh, it's a goon sack and its stuck in tray three
Mass producing weapons for you and Hamid Arshee
Oh, well it sounded like such a bright fucking idea
As the night sticks fall all around our ears
And our new young broken dreams
Come on! You can come and help spread the seed my friend
You can t-t-t-t-take and rape what you need, again
In the name of a new young broken dream!
Why can't we just all get along?
Pack our shit for outer space, singing
Uh-oh, how it's not far enough, no, far enough away…
Build the walls higher baby, fuck it! Cos here we'll stay!
So leave the lights on, leave the lights on, leave the lights on
We're staying home
Turn the gas on, leave the gas on, leave the gas on
And light the flame!
But you say they got guns and aeroplanes and now
All we got is sacks of cheap champagne (and we fail)
How we don't, stand a chance...
But we'll do it again!
Turn the gas on, leave the gas on, leave the gas on
And light the flame
But you say they got guns and aeroplanes and now
All we got is sacks of cheap champagne (and we fail)
How we don't, stand a chance...
But we'll do it again!

We're all so many guns with puppets stuck to our heads
They don't like what we do
And the trains blow through the station, we can never slow them down
No they don't like, no they don't like what we do
And there's a woman who's always screaming
But she's yelled back at by a man
There's a kid lying face first head in his hands
Shit, he ain't ever gonna wanna understand
So he runs to the far side of town
Where he thinks he can find something to blame
And now the malls are all aflame
Now the malls are all aflame
Cause they don't like no, well they don't like what we do!
And we're all tripping over each other in a hurry to see the light
Hope the party doesn't end before we arrive
Now the malls are all on fire
Now the malls are all on fire
Cause they don't like, they don't like what we do
No but we don't like, no we don't like what they do!

Carseldine Hero steals my thunder but I don't mind
Cause I never really had a purpose for you, other than to just be there waiting
And I guess now I realise you made me feel a little bit less stranger than the..
Carseldine Hero steals my thunder but I don't mind
Cause I know, it wasn't fair for me to go and think of you.
But I know I just needed it - I need to feel a bit more
I guess now I'm feeling a little sub-bulletproof the scars will certainly show
And I'm laughing as my hand built fortresses are slowly crashing to the ground
And I never had enough time to see myself in the right kind of light
And I guess now I'm feeling a little sub-bulletproof the scars will certainly show
Cause I know it was dumb for me to go and think of you
But I know I just needed it - I need to feel a bit more
