Jester said that we would all go to hell, so we all walked right it's way
It was the look on his face that did it, he uses it to get his way

He said 'I am the Jester and I hate myself,
'But not the mistakes that I've made,
'Please bring me a helpless maiden,
'One that's easy to persuade'

Jester told us all the tricks to being
Top criminal wherever we may be
He got the others to tag along with him
But he didn't quite get me

He said 'I am the Jester and I hate myself,
'But not the mistakes that I've made,
'Please bring me a helpless maiden,
'One that's easy to persuade'

Some wonder who suggests these things
And I will point you to the suggestor
Although he's cruel and treats us all like vermin
No-one ever doubts the Jester

He said 'I am the Jester and I am almighty
'And I've pretty well got it made
'I'd like to thank you all for your assistance
'You've all been so easy to persuade
'You have all been so easy to persuade'

Persuade

Lyrics by Carmen North, music by Ian Sattler

Away with what's making these terrible sounds!
I think it's the monster from the TV
If we must wait until morning I will
If you hear him coming, stay perfectly still...

Well, I guess I failed to correct you
And that's a shame
Cause I'm staying here forever

The door is open so he'll go away
Every light's on so I'll see if he moves
What in the world is he trying to kill?
If you hear him coming, stay perfectly still..

Now I know I failed all the ghosts, and that's a shame
But I'm still staying here forever

You won't find me where I can't find me
You are stronger but I'm quicker
You won't find me
You won't find me

Away with what's making these terrible sounds!
I think it's the monster from the TV
If we must wait until morning, I will
If you hear him coming, stay perfectly still

Lyrics by Carmen North, music by Ian Sattler

Why does the brain work this way? 
We are all in need of an operation
An operation
Let no man get in the way, in the way of
My operation, my operation

Open up the mind, get your hands inside
Crossing all the wires, causing all the
CAUSING ALL THE...!

Why does the brain work this way? 
We are all in need of an operation
An operation
Let no man get in the way, in the way of
My operation, my operation
Why does the brain work this way? 
We are all in need of an operation
An operation
Let no man get in the way, in the way of
My operation, my operation

Break the skull across, show that brain who's boss!
Who says that you fail when all pain is
WHEN ALL PAIN IS...!
They may take you out, strap you to a chair
Reverse what you've done, tell you life's not
TELL YOU LIFE'S NOT FAIR!

Operation

Lyrics by Carmen North, music and backup vox by Ian Sattler

I breathe, I'm breathing in you
And it's like suffocating
Poison in our oxygen from you alone

Evil, evil, evil, you're so evil

You make us sick and it's not fair, 'cause we've been good
And you're an atmospherical disturbance
The energy that you release is the worst kind of contagious

Evil, evil, evil, you're so evil

You make me sick and it's not fair, 'cause I've been good

Evil

Lyrics by Carmen North, music by Ian Sattler

That thing is dead, I kicked it right out
The disturbing things it said, it did not joke about
It begged to stay, I showed no mercy
You don't have to go home but you're not coming with me

Oh, the outrageous claims have gotten old
You told me you were shocking, you're just one volt

That thing is dead, this is my favor
To the rest of you, you can thank me later
Don't bring it up, I'm so close to forgetting
And laughing at the light that it thinks that it's been shedding

Oh, the outrageous claims have gotten old
You told me you were shocking, you're just one volt
I should have always known that you were slightly off
You gave me the wrong idea about love

It took me way to long to finally see
I made a monster and you made one of me

One Volt

Oh, it's the spaceman!
Let's all run away from the spaceman

Spaceman

Lyrics by Carmen North, music by Ian Sattler

The day is the night, the solar system's down
The stars are falling from the sky
The earth stops spinning around
Who will save the day? Or is it night?

The day is the night
The humans don't stand a chance
The sun is cold and dry
We all try to breathe but we can't
It's the end of our days and our nights
It's the end of our days and our nights,
It's the end of our day is the night

The day is the night, the solar system's down
The sun is cold and dry
The earth stops spinning around
It's the end of our days and our nights
It's the end of our days and our nights,
It's the end of our day is the night

Day Is The Night

Lyrics by Carmen North, music by Ian Satller

I know if I close my eyes my nightmares will begin right there
Visions of a homicide, fictional but I'm still scared

Insomnia

I'm sleepy but I've got to wait 'cause I know when the morning comes
Whatever is stalking me will vanish when it sees the sun
Once my eyes are closed I'm open to a certain painful death,
Sleeping will show I am weak

Insomnia

Once my eyes are closed I'm open to a certain painful death,
Once the sun goes down I'm vulnerable to what's under the bed
Once I kill the lights, they'll kill me in the dark and that's the end
Insomnia

Insomnia

Thanks for the Jon apology
Really meant a lot, cost a lot of money
Made up for when we fought
Back to normal now, so carry on

This is the best apology you'll ever get from Jon
(I'll buy your love)

It's not quite a sorry or a forgive me please
I can't ask for something that he'll never give to me

Thanks for the Jon apology
Really meant a lot, cost a lot of money
No questions asked regarding why
But maybe at some point I'll stop by

This is an album I made with my old pal Ian. It was lots of fun but we didn't end up finishing it. We had parts to add and take away and mixing to do. But here's what we have anyway. I was sixteen when I made this so my voice was pretty timid.
