DESTINY CALLING

First released 1998

Destiny Calling is a lighthearted dig at the music business with references in the lyrics to both the Spice Girls and the Monkees.  The video features the debut appearance of Graham, the voiceover man off Blind Date.

Saul described the writing process for Destiny as "whacking on a capo and playing She's A Star at twice the speed."

LYRICS

So we may be gorgeous

So we may be famous

Come back when we're getting old 

Cover us in chocolate

Sell us to the neighbours

Frame us in a video 

Clone us in a test tube

Sell us to the multitude

Guess that's the price of fame 

She likes the black one

He likes the the posh one

Cute ones are usually gay 

Here we come this is our destiny calling

We're freaks

This is our destiny calling

Unique

This is our destiny calling now 

Don't believe the adverts

Don't believe the expert

Everyone will sell our souls 

Get a little wiser

Get a little humble

Now we know that we don't know 

Tell us when our time's up

Show us how to die well

Show us how to let it all go 

Here we come, this is our destiny calling

We're freaks

This is our destiny calling

Unique

This is our destiny calling now 

Some fat cats playing roulette with lives

This game is fixed it's all a lie

Some fat cats playing roulette with lives

This time is curved, there's no straight lines

Some fat cats playing roulette with lives

Forget myself we're all entwined

There's no straight lines 

Here we come, this our destiny calling

We're freaks

This is our destiny calling

Unique

This is our destiny calling now 

Here we come, this our destiny calling

We're freaks

This is our destiny calling

Unique

This is our destiny calling now 

This is our destiny calling

This is our destiny calling

This is our destiny calling

Now

Now

Now
