1981 Look! Hear! (BBC TV, UK)

Planet Earth

Only came outside to watch the nightfall with the rain
I heard you making patterns rhyme
Like some new romantic looking for the TV sound
you’ll see I’m right some other time

look now, look all around, there’s no sign of life
voices, another sound, can you hear me now?
This is Planet Earth, you’re looking at Planet Earth
Bop bop bop bop bop bop bop bop this is Planet Earth

My head is stuck on something precious
Let me know if you’re coming down to land
Is there anybody out there trying to get through?
My eyes are so cloudy I can’t see you

Look now, look all around, there’s no sign of life
Voices, another sound, can you hear me now?
This is Planet Earth, you’re looking at Planet Earth
Bop bop bop bop bop bop bop bop this is Planet Earth

Look now, look all around, there’s no sign of life
Voices, another sound, can you hear me now?
This is Planet Earth, you’re looking at Planet Earth

Bop bop bop bop bop bop bop bop this is Planet Earth
Bop bop bop bop bop bop bop bop calling Planet Earth
Bop bop bop bop bop bop bop bop this looking at Planet Earth
Bop bop bop bop bop bop bop bop this is Planet Earth

Careless Memories

So soon, just after you’ve gone
my senses sharpen
But it always takes
so damned long
before I feel how much
my eyes have darkened

Fear hangs a plane of gun smoke
drifting in our room
so easy to disturb
with a thought
with a whisper
with a careless memory

On the table
signs of love lie scattered
and the walls break
with a crashing within
It’s not as though
as though you really mattered
But being close
how could I let you go
without some feeling
some precious sympathy following

Fear hangs a plane of gun smoke
drifting in our room
so easy to disturb
with a thought
with a whisper
with a careless memory

I walk out into the sun
I try to find a new day
but the whole place
it just screams in my eyes
where are you now?
cuz I don’t want to meet you
I think I’d die
I think I’d laugh at you
I think I’d cry
What am I supposed to do
follow you?

Outside the thoughts
come flooding back now
I just try to forget you
So easy to disturb
with a thought
with a whisper
with a careless memory

Planet Earth

Careless Memories
