V1: see what you're not / whatever it takes you know you haven't got
B1: I can see that / you believe that / maybe it will / all work out someday / can't you see that / it's already too late?

V2: So sad, the things you do / part of you still thinks your dream is coming true (don't you?)
B2: I can see that / you believe that / maybe you've still / got something to say / can't you feel all those / years gone to waste?

B3: I can see that / you believe that / maybe it will / all work out someday / and you / can't kill the / hope that there's / got to be a way / and deep / down you know / what you still can't / bring yourself to say / that you / know that / it's already too... [cooing etc.]... too late

Interesting feeling to this--enervated and yet still nervy and alert. I think Wire, The Raincoats and Gang of Four (sans white funk). Love the purposeful guitar work and endlessly quotable lyrics. Swim Lanes
Future generations will revere this as a genuine Aussie punk/post-punk classic. Suburban Lawns, slight Devo & heavy Plastics vibes. Don't act like you don't lose it when Carbon Copy comes on too. Swim Lanes
When I first heard this I thought: 'Why hasn't this been brought to my attention already?'. Shame on me for not having known about this sooner. Perfect, so perfect--the pinnacle of synth punk. Swim Lanes
