Hawkwind - High Rise lyrics

Flat block Of two dimensions Neon tote board to the sky Keeping scores of people stacked up so high Above the ground That all they can hear is the sound Of the wind in the antennae It's a human zoo A suicide machine Childhood Of concrete cube-shaped A flypaper stuck with human life Caged up rage Swarming hornet hive Tear out the telephones Rip out the pages of directories And wreck all these High speed lifts and elevators Be a sabotage rebel without applause High rise Living in a high rise High rise Living in a high rise High rise Living in a high rise High rise You're all stacked up in a high rise block High rise Living in a high rise High rise Living in a high rise High rise Living in a high rise High rise All stacked up in a high rise block Starfish Of human blood shape The tentacles of human gore Spread out on the pavement from the 99th floor Well, somebody said he jumped But we know he was pushed And he was just like you might have been On the 99th floor of a suicide machine High rise Living in a high rise High rise Living in a high rise High rise Living in a high rise High rise All stacked up in a high rise block High rise Living in a high rise High rise Living in a high rise High rise All stacked up in a high rise block High rise Living in a high rise High rise Living in a high rise High rise All stacked up in a high rise block
