    Speak To Me

    [AUDIENCE: Hahahahaha.]
    [GUY1: Here they come.]
    [GUY2: Stinking up.]
    [GUY1: Christ [...] brave. Look at that!]
    [GUY2: Fuckin' jesus!]

    Breathe

    DAVE:
    Run...

    Breathe, breathe in the air
    Don't be afraid to care
    Leave, but don't leave me
    Look around, dig your own ground

    For long you fly and high you fly
    But only if you ride the tide
    But all you fear and all you see
    Is all your life will ever be

    Run, run rabbit run
    Dig that hole, forget the sun
    When at last the work is done
    Don't sit down, it's time to dig another one

    For long you fly and high you fly
    But only if you ride the tide
    Falling on the biggest wave
    You [...] towards an early grave

    Travel Sequence > Time

    DAVE/RICK:
    Ticking away the moments that make up a dull day
    [...] and waste the hours in an offhand way
    Kicking around on a piece of ground in your home town
    Waiting for someone or something to show you the way

    RICK:
    Laying supine in the sunshine, staying home to watch the rain
    You are young and life is long and there is time to kill today
    RICK/DAVE:
    And then one day you find ten years have got behind you
    No one told you when to run, you missed the starting gun

    DAVE/RICK:
    To run to catch up with the sun, but it's sinking
    Racing around to come up behind you again
    Sun is the seam in a relative way but you're older
    ...ter of breath and one day closer to death

    RICK:
    Every year is getting shorter, never seem to find the time
    Plans that either come to naught or half a page of scribbled lines
    RICK/ROGER:
    Hanging on in quiet desperation is the English way
    The time is gone. The song is over
    Thought I'd something more to say

    Home Again

    DAVE:
    Du... dududu
    Du... dududud...dudu
    Du... dududududdu
    Da... dadadada... etc

    Mortality Sequence

    [PREACHER: [...]]

    Money

    DAVE:
    Money, get away
    Get a job with more pay and you're okay
