Lyrics

Through the cables and the Underground now
The faceless, breathless calls
This is Babel, Sensurround now
This place is death with walls
This place is death with walls
This place is death with walls
This place is death with walls
Too much contact, no more feeling
The sound around them all
Acid on the floor
So she walk on the ceiling
And the body electric
Flashes on the bathroom wall
And the body electric
Flashes on the bathroom wall
Crawling to the corners
Where the idiot children call
See the body flashing
On the bathroom wall
Through the cables and the Underground now
The faceless, breathless calls
This is Babel, Sensurround now
This place is death with walls
This place is death with walls
This place is death with walls
This place is death with walls
Too much contact, no more feeling
The sound around them all
Acid on the floor
So she walk on the ceiling
And the body electric
Flashes on the bathroom wall
And the body electric
Flashes on the bathroom wall
And the body electric
Flashes on the bathroom wall
Wall, wall, wall, wall, wall
See the body flashing
On the bathroom wall
