Текст песни: Reaching the Age of Reason + перевод

The line I chalk is moving beyond my fingertips

The observations and the thoughts in my mind are ripe

Genetic engineering myself — No I just don’t need anyone else

I’m wide awake and finally breaking through to the age of,

Through to the age of reason

The numbers count up and down in the calculations

I watch the words rearranging themselves on the page

Working it out myself — No I just don’t need anyone else

I’m wide awake and finally breaking through to the age of,

Through to the age of reason

and from a black and white world where it was much much duller

everybody comes to life in these unfamiliar colours

Genetic engineering myself — No I just don’t need anyone else

I’m wide awake and finally breaking through to the age of,

Through to the age of reason

Reasons to live

Reasons to stare into the gun

Reasons to give

Reasons to grab the cash and run

Reasons to run and reasons to stay

Reasons to go back to bed

Reasons to be cheerful

As Ian Dury said 'Get back into bed'

and from a black and white world where it was much much duller

everybody comes to life in these unfamiliar colours
