LOW LOW LOW

First released 1993

This track started life as a five minutes plus improvisation with trumpets on the 1992 European tour, but was shortened to about two and a half minutes. It includes the kitchen staff from the Real World Studios doing backing vocals. It was slated as a potential single in early 1994 but lost out to Say Something.

It was rerecorded with different lyrics as Goal Goal Goal for submission for the England 1994 World Cup song – England failed to qualify.

LYRICS

I'm a member of an ape-like race

At the arsehole end of the twentieth century

This film's a thriller of the mind

Will we destroy our homes, release ourselves from the

Weights of gravity

I'll be amazed if we survive

 

Low low low, low low low, low low low, low low low

This race to space we're on

To release ourselves from the weights of gravity

Our highs are higher than our lows

This world's a state of mind

I can hear your thoughts much too clearly

From slime to ape, we'll learn to fly

 

Low low low, Low low low, Low low low, Low low low

 

Oh, we're so powerful

Watch these giants collide

So individual, will we ever find peace of mind

 

Low low low
