Shriekback - Fish Below the Ice lyrics

Well the mouth is open And the noise comes out Ain't no reason for it Just a need to shout It's malnutrition We could fall apart It's never delicate Just something from the iron age We shake it up And we break it down The sound of a satellite Saying get me down Yeah we shake it up And we break it down Hear the voice of America In your home town Well the film is forming 'Til the film runs out There's no point of focus It zooms in and out It's information And it leaves no mark It's just as permanent As painting in the iron age I'm plugged in and loaded Don't forget to phone in The self destruct is holding I'm counting, I'm counting, but only to three We get it right sometimes We shine a light sometimes We see the fish below the ice sometimes Stand up and fight sometimes We get the fright sometimes How will we ever pay the price this time We shake it up And we break it down The sound of a satellite Saying get me down Yeah we shake it up And we break it down It's east European, west European It's moving so fast It goes all the way round We shake it up And we break it down Yeah we shake it up And we break it down Yeah we shake it up / Yeah he's on a mission from god And we break it down / But he don't know whose and he don't know why Yeah we shake it up And we break it down Yeah we shake it up / Says I'm not a light in the darkness And we break it down / More like a shadow on the lungs Yeah we shake it up And we break it down Yeah we shake it up / I'm balanced here on the edge of anger And we break it down / I'm standing here on an empty page Yeah we shake it up / Sooner or later I'll start receiving And we break it down / I've been standing here for days Yeah we shake it up And we break it down Hear the voice of America In your home town Yeah we shake it up And we break it down It's east European, west European It's moving so fast It goes all the way round We get it right sometimes We shine a light sometimes We see the fish below the ice sometimes Stand up and fight sometimes We get the fright sometimes How will we ever pay the price this time We shake it up And we break it down The sound of a satellite Saying get me down Yeah we shake it up And we break it down It's east European, west European It's moving so fast It goes all the way round We get it right sometimes We shine a light sometimes We see the fish below the ice sometimes Stand up and fight sometimes We get the fright sometimes How will we ever pay the price this time We get it right sometimes We shine a light sometimes We see the fish below the ice sometimes Stand up and fight sometimes We get the fright sometimes How will we ever pay the price this time We get it right sometimes We shine a light sometimes We see the fish below the ice sometimes Stand up and fight sometimes We get the fright sometimes How will we ever pay the price this time We get it right sometimes We shine a light sometimes...
