Good thieves of burning cars Encircle poisoned rivers, minds and hearts Horses want to dance But find their wings are damaged, water damaged Gold is selling out So hurry, mighty ocean's rising fast A big man with a plan Has got a storm a coming, monster coming From Atlantis to Interzone You start on the edge and you end on your own From Atlantis to Interzone You start on the edge and you end on your own We're fragments of fiction Your dead man, half alive Who hangs from helping numbers, one to five His ears, pricked with the knife Hears that the east are coming, west are coming From gravity's rainbow The axis here is still unknown The children's faces glow The wasteland guides them, wasteland guides them From Atlantis to Interzone You start on the edge and you end on your own From Atlantis to Interzone You start on the edge and you end on your own From Atlantis to Interzone You start on the edge and you end on your own We're fragments of fiction

    General Comment:"A big man with a plan" = god.
    obviously.
    The big man and his plan is referring to another flood, a la Noah's ark.

    General Comment:Crystal Castles Remix is one of the best remixes that I have ever heard. If you haven't heard it yet, go and find yourself a copy of it.

    Better than the original Klaxons song too, sorry2say.

    General Comment:My mind was on the same track as dotdotdot's about this song. I guess I'm always naturally inclined to find an environmental/political message in a song with phrases like "hurry mighty ocean rising fast" and "storm a-coming, monster coming" but I'd have to say that before reading everyone else's comments about science fiction I would whole-heartedly agree. Now I'm not so sure but songs can mean whatever you want them to anyway...

    General Comment:anyone that's read naked lunch could tell you it's a tribute to it.


    the writing style is a perfectly emulated example of burrough's work.

    i didn't like this band until i heard this song, i gained a lot of respect
