DO WHAT YOU WILL
Ladies and Gentlemen, boys and girls
All you citizens of the world
Come on - Do what you will
Come on - Do what you will
Welcome to reality we hope you stay
This is your choice and you're all okay
Mired in a binary of good and bad
Give it up for everything you ever had
Ladies and Gentlemen, boys and girls
Welcome to reality, the natural world
There's a war in Heaven, there's a war in Rome
There's a war much closer than you even know
There's a war in Heaven, there's a war in Rome
Doesn't matter whose side you're on
When you come home
Welcome to reality it's here to stay
No matter how you feel, won't go away
Come on - Do what you will
Ladies and Gentlemen, open up your arms
Creatures of the Night set your alarms
Ladies and Gentlemen, do what you will
The Whole of the Law, the Thrall of the Thrill
Welcome to reality it's all we know
Keep your grip onto this rock and don't let go

HEY HUMANITY
Hey Humanity
Let's take a ride upon the world and feel the dream
Hey Reality
The odds that we are even here defy belief
From the ashes of our fathers
And the children of our brothers - I lay down
From the numbers we discovered
And the bones that we uncovered - I lay down
I lay down
Hey there Gravity
Don't bring me down I wanna fly so much to see
Hey - hey empathy
Is that a tear up in your eye?
Stay dry for me
From the monkey to the teacher
To silent monks and preachers - lay me down
From the mitochondrial mother
To Aliens undercover - lay me down
Lay me down
'Cos nothing should be hidden
And everything forgiven
Get it out
We're just learning to envision
Still not cracked atomic fission
And we're all here on a mission
It's the damnedest of conditions
Let it out
Hey Great Mystery
The time has come for us to try and find the key
Hey Humanity
You know the choice is really here
What will we be?

DRIVING TO DESTRUCTION
You pull so close to the cliff
You move so close to the brink
The first gear's stuck in the last
The exit coming too quick
Automoto Animus - Enigmatic Terminus
Terminal Tempestuous
The wind blows dust in your eyes
The danger only increases
You hear the wails and the cries
The car it falls into pieces
The car goes by
It's way too late for advice
And no one seems to be steering
I'd like to think we'll survive
But we all know what we're nearing
So we just wait for the crash
To bridge the gap to existence
Who will have the last laugh
Long live the resistance
And who is coming to rescue me
The jaws of life refuse to speak
When are we going to be set free
A hamster running can hardly be
The Road is tough, but so are we
Driving to destruction
This is something far more furious
Driving to destruction
This is much much much more serious
Automoto Animus - Enigmatic Terminus
Terminal Tempestuous
We race out of sight, we move out of time
The lanes change their sides when there's no disguise
Will you torment my life, will you forget the fight
Will you give me the ride - and drive drive drive
We're driving, driving to atone
We're driving into the unknown

STAY WITH ME
Hey-oh we're falling out to sea - It's reaching out taking everything
Hey-oh don't give in and please don't leave me for the tide
Stay with me 'til the end of time, don't go away, don't break the line
Stay with me 'til the end of time, you know I want you by my side
Stay with me til the end of time, don't go away inside
I know the end is near - But somehow you're still here
And I know some are lost out there
But we don't have to play their game
So please just stay with me 'til the end of time
Together cross the final line
Be with me 'til the end of time, please don't leave me behind
Just stay with me - Just stay - Stay with me
You I want to make you mine, if only I could reach your mind
I don't ever want to make a mistake with your heart
I don't ever want to take it for granted that
We won't start to come apart
Hey-oh, I see you wandering - I pull you back again
Stay the course now, stay close to me, stay the course now
Say you'll always come home
And stay with me 'til the end of time, don't go away, don't break the line
Stay with me 'til the end of time, please just stay by my side
Just Stay with me - Stay with me
Don't blow away like the dust declines
Don't go away, leave it all behind
Don't blow away - Leave it all behind

CHARLIE KNEW
Charlie knew a thing or two, all he had belonged to you
What about the world outside - Charlie said we shouldn't hide
And we said Charlie, Charlie, what do you know?
Where did all the innocence go?
Charlie knew a thing or two, told The Family what was true
Gotta learn to ride the slide 'cos all is fair when worlds collide
All is fair when worlds collide
But Charlie knew doesn't matter what you do
Charlie knew, Charlie knew
Yes Charlie knew always someone over you
Charlie knew, Charlie knew
In his hand he held a stone
Rocks will break and so will bones
But Charlie knew something always points at you
Charlie knew, Charlie knew
Yes Charlie knew always someone over you
Charlie knew - Squeaky too
And when he says “Rise”
We rise, we rise
Charlie knew – Let's all do what Charlie do
Charlie knew

SIREN IN THE STORM
I got lost in a storm on a boat with no oar
On a sea where I never had been
Found my way to the shore not the same as before
Now I'm here in the in-between
And when the clouds broke
Alive, I awoke to a misty world like a dream
But I'm fighting the smoke, I could swear that she spoke
Who's that spirit guiding me?
The Siren waits for me, I think I hear her calling
She whispers so silently
The Siren I can't see - I know she's out there beckoning me
And I wonder who could she be?
Now, the storm may be done but the battle's half won
And I know I can never be free
If I can't find her – there's no hope, no return
I just have to dive in and believe
The Siren of the sea - I'll swim until she rescues me
I feel her presence dawning like a light that rises brilliantly
And she smiles so beautifully

ENIGMATIC TERMINUS
Driving to destruction down the river moving wildly
Driving to destruction and the World turning blindly
Driving - I'm driving into destruction
Driving to destruction down the river flowing wildly
Driving to destruction and the World turning blindly
Driving - floating into destruction
Driving - driving to destruction
Floating into destruction
Driving - Terminal Technopolis
Driving into destruction – Enigmatic Terminus
There is no divide
Floating into destruction
Watch the car go by – into destruction
Driving to destruction – Automoto Terminus
Floating to destruction

LEGEND OF MARY JO
My name is Mary Jo Buttafuocco
And I prophesy the end of everything we know
My name is Mary Jo Buttafuocco
And the time is closing in, let us now begin
In the year 2062 Amy will come for you
She will ride a white stallion and lead a battalion
And seven score trumpets will sound
In the year 2062 Amy's made up for you
If she finds you are willing, she will come for the killing
'Cos Amy stands her ground - she won't be put down
My name is Mary Jo Buttafuocco
And I'll tell you how this ends - my last lament
In the year 2062 Amy will come for you
She will ride a white stallion and lead a battalion
And seven score trumpets will sound
'Cos Amy wants her pound
From her souped-up body shop all her Commando's drop
And Amy's Army storms through this weary world of form
And lions will roar and stalk the corridor
She will lead a battalion and ride a white stallion
And seven score trumpets will sound 'cos Amy's got her pound
Driving down the silver streets, Amy's on the go
And fear's a funny thing, just like vertigo
And Amy just wants to show the only thing that she knows
That she'll survive
“I can get you weaponry,” said Amy geared for the show
“How 'bout a mass casualty, 'cos life is just too slow
Let's make like life is a joke, the Holy Ghost is just smoke...”
And Amy dreams of the lights
And all the scraps and the fights – but she survives
In the year '62 - All this will come for you
In the year '62 - Amy will comfort you
In the year '62 - All this comes true for you
In the year '62 - Amy will come
And she will be coming to comfort you
In the year '62 - Amy will come for you
Driving down the city streets, Amy's on the go
And fear's a funny thing, but Amy's ready to roll
'Cos sometimes life is too slow
And Amy dreams of the lights, the only thing that she knows
Exposed!
My name is Mary Jo Buttafuocco
And I told you where I stand - and where it all began
Just imagine if you will Amy behind the wheel
And the world her battlefield
And I'll tell you everything I know
When Amy gets on the road you must never walk alone
My name is Mary Jo Buttafuocco
And I prophesy the end of everything we know

Excellent album, especially the title track. Very complex arrangements with definite hints of Renaissance. I'd love to see Annie Haslam wander on stage to join Christina Booth on the title track. My best ever Live concert was watching them at Trading Boundaries, with Pete Jones as well....Magic!

What can I say about Big Big Train that I haven’t said before? This album took a little while to grow on me but by the time I saw it live I was in love with its humongous, over-egged pomposity! They do it all with such passion, excitement and amazing musicianship. Essential.

Groovy and eclectic art-pop from the Glaswegian outfit, as influenced by the Beatles and Scott Walker as King Crimson and the KLF.

I love the overall theme of this work. It’s a universal truth that we need to adapt and change as a human race if we expect to survive.

It's a grower, this album. There are sublime moments throughout and Atlantic Cable alone is one of BBT's finest works.
