ZANG TUUMB TUM DISCOGRAPHY “…or the imagination”

Childish dreaming


Chalkboards weigh heavy
Board rubbers leave scars
The exam board inspection
To the drawing board my son

You need curriculum
And strong discipline
So pull up your socks
Stand tall and breathe in

Why am I rich
Why is my back sore
What made us linear
What did granddad die for

Why are there armies
And who’s on our side
Where does the sun rise
And where does it hide

Back to bed
You’re dreaming again
Safety in numbers
My friend

Picked from a shelf
Sent on parade
40 hours weekly
To slave for a wage

To pick from shelf
Send on parade
Children of fortune
Seek children of fame

Why is this yours
Why wasn’t it mine
Why do the clocks
Keep on ticking off time

Why are there nightmares
And who made my shoes
Why are there children
Shedding blood on the news

Back to bed
You’re dreaming again
Safety in numbers
My friend
