Alarm Call Lyrics

[00:21.23] I have walked this earth
[00:24.32] And watched people
[00:27.04] (It doesn't scare me at all)
[00:31.00] I can be sincere
[00:34.20] And say I like them
[00:36.91] (It doesn't scare me at all)
[00:41.42] An-bithelafter-mer, an- yeah-hoh-oh
[00:45.23] An-be-ja-a-a-ha-ha
[00:48.69] Oh-oh oh-oh-oh
[00:48.78] You can't say no to hope
[00:53.77] Can't say no to happiness
[00:56.85] (It doesn't scare me at all)
[01:01.00] I want to go on a mountain top
[01:05.73] With a radio and good batteries
[01:10.75] And play a joyous tune
[01:15.46] And free the human race
[01:23.09] From suffering
[01:23.98] (It doesn't scare me at all)
[01:25.60] I'm no fucking Buddhist
[01:28.59] But this is enlightenment
[01:31.16] (Oh-oh oh-oh-oh)
[01:35.54] The less room you give me
[01:38.49] The more space I've got
[01:41.29] (It doesn't scare me at all)

[02:05.29] I want to be on a mountain top
[02:09.94] With a radio and good batteries
[02:15.00] And play a joyous tune
[02:18.42] And free the human race
[02:27.29] From suffering
[02:28.12] (It doesn't scare me at all)
[02:29.82] This is an alarm-call
[02:32.61] So wake up, wake up now
[02:38.73] (Oh-oh, oh-oh-oh)
[02:40.25] Today has never happened
[02:42.80] And it doesn't frighten me
[02:45.52] (It doesn't scare me at all)
[02:50.52] An-bithel-after, an-yeah-hoh-oh
[02:52.55] An-che-ja-a-a-ha-ha
[02:59.62] You can't say no to hope
[03:02.36] You can't say no to happiness
