Absent Without Leave – Technique Lyrics

Colour-TV and stereo
Hi-fi sound from nowhere
Super Channel and video
Trying to treat us pretty fair

Synthetic sounds to feel free
Bright lights in every room
It's slowly paralysing me
I'll be their victim very soon

Technique, all you require
Technique, your only desire
Technique, all is electric
Technique, it's ecclectic

Remote control
Without a soul
First frame
Like a video game
Bright lights
With neon lights
Satellite channels
By control panels

Technique, all you require
Technique, your only desire
Technique, to kill us all
Technique, malefunction in the shopping mall

Hear them scream
See them run
There's nothing for us to be done
