1. Stars Die (5:07)
2. The Sound of No-one Listening (8:14)
3. Colourflow in Mind (3:55)

I cross the city backwards There's a lot of soul to find A million ways to loose control I've got colourflow in mind

I find a safer haven And get myself a line Feel the urge to climb the walls I've got colourflow in mind

Turn on, tune in, shut down It's a way to pass the time Check out of my braincell again I've got colourflow in mind

SIDE B

1. Wake as Gun I (3:29)

Man wakes up as animal Hallucinates a fire Man wakes up as a ghost Bloodless but inspired

Man wakes up as music And liberates the calm Man wakes up as a child And builds a bridge of charm

Oh the silence you keep But I just wanna sleep

Man wakes up as a gun And doesn't get the joke

2. Hallogallo/Signify (7:05)
3. Smiling Not Smiling (3:42)

Out of the city the heaven's reflect A stinging vista of flaming insects Darkness engulfing islands of light Scarring the sky and staining the night

Under this mess and idiot prayer A ticking bomb of bone and thin air A candle wasting and waxing to nil Waiting to trigger and blow the big chill

Now I'm inclined only to sleep Ask me a question the meaning runs deep Moments are drowning in mantras of rain Smiling unsmiling there's no need to explain

4. Wake as Gun II (3:46)

Man wakes up as animal Hallucinates a fire Man wakes up as a ghost Bloodless but inspired Man wakes up as a gun And doesn't get the joke

5. Door to the River (4:18)
6. Insignificance (5:04)
7. Nine Cats - acoustic version (4:06)

The butterfly sailed on the breeze Past a field of barbed wire trees Where golden dragons chased around Pampered poppies on the ground Two silver trout sat way on high And watched a royal samurai Plant two black orchids in a box And strap it to a laughing fox A minstrel bought a crooked spoon He gave it to a blue baboon Who filled it full of virgin snow And watched it in the afterglow

Fat toad stood in his ballet shoes Teaching sixteen kangaroos How to skip across a lake They found it hard to stay awake A pharaoh played a merry tune And watched nine cats dance on the moon I didn't know what all this meant I didn't know why I'd been sent.

The Insignificance version of Nine Cats has the following additional verse at the end:

I threw 5 clocks down on my bed The chimes danced out on golden threads And turned to footprints on my wall Sequined tears began to fall

Polish cassette anthology featuring one side of tracks taken from singles and a side of tracks taken from the "Insignificance" cassette.
