Song lyrics

Don't talk of dust and roses
Or should we powder our noses?
Don't talk of last years capers,
Give me steel, give me steel,
Give me pulsars unreal.

He'll build a glass asylum
With just a hint of mayhem,
He'll build a better whirlpool,
We'll be living from sin
Then we can really begin.

Please, saviour, saviour, show us,
Hear me, I'm graphically yours.

Someone to claim us – someone to follow,
Someone to shame us – some brave apollo,
Someone to fool us – someone like you,
We want you Big Brother – Big Brother,
I know you think you're awful square,
But you made everyone and you've been everywhere,
Lord, I think you'd overdose if you knew what's going down.

Someone to claim us – someone to follow,
Someone to shame us – some brave apollo,
Someone to fool us – someone like you,
We want you Big Brother – Big Brother.
