Hawkwind

Hawkwind - High Rise lyrics

Of two dimensions

Neon totem pole to the sky

Keeping scores of people stacked up so high

Above the ground

But all they can hear is the sound

Of the wind in the antennae

It's a human zoo

A suicide machine

Childhood

Of concrete cube shaped

A flypaper stuck with human life

Caged up rage

Swarming all the time

Tear out the telephones

Rip up the pages of directories

And wreck all these

High speed lifts and elevators

Be a sabotage rebel without a cause

High rise

Living in a high rise

High rise

Living in a high rise

High rise

Living in a high rise

High rise

All stacked up in a high rise block

High rise

Living in a high rise

High rise

Living in a high rise

High rise

Living in a high rise

High rise

All stacked up in a high rise block

Starfish

Of human blood shape

Tentacles of human gore

Spread out on the pavement from the 99th floor

Well somebody said that he jumped

But we know he was pushed

He was just like you might have been

On the 99th floor of a suicide machine

High rise

Living in a high rise

High rise

Living in a high rise

High rise

Living in a high rise

High rise

All stacked up in a high rise block
