We are shapeshifter, resistor, transmitter, Coming through to you via waves of sound Inviting you to higher ground Look! See goblins in the mist and who can resist The goblin queen, her smile serene, Her touch as no other, she wants you to be her lover Hark! Who is that that descends to see? 'Tis the elfin king, green of skin, lithe of limb Does your spirit not sing in harmony with the elfin king? Who is that that takes your hand? Now I know it may feel cold and scary But there is no need to fear, fear a fairy Who only wants to dance, entrance, Blue fairy feet dancing in your soul, What a feeling, such healing, making you whole Compute, transmute, dilute Dilute one part with three parts water... It grows, it flows And the stream flows through the wood And we all feel good When we find we are back on Albion's blessed shore Where less is more See trees grow feet where roots once held them down And dress themselves in leaves of green and brown And dance and make romance Under stars and chocolate bars on Mars We are Shapeshifter, resistor, transmitter, Coming through to you via waves of sound Inviting you to higher ground Compute, transmute, dilute, transmute, Resist! Shapeshift! Resist! Transmit! Shapeshift! Shapeshift! Resist! Transmit... resist... Shapeshift... transmit... resist... Shapeshift... transmit... transmit... Resist... shapeshift... shapeshift... Resist... transmit... transmit... transmit... We are getting through... to... you...

Transverse the highway of the stars I walk among the angels' sweet serenades For I and you are both made of the same stuff as the stars The sun is our heart, the moon our desire Mercury the quicksilver of our minds Our copper, or Venus, we carry in our throat, we carry in our throat Oh, sing sweetly, sing your own songs, None can tell you they are wrong Jupiter expands fully in our solar plexus Jupiter expands And below Jupiter, Mars, fiery red, burning, Burning, burning, unbridled passion And below Mars, at the base, The base of the spine, Saturn sits, She compresses, compresses, compresses The greatest into the smallest Release the lead of Saturn, Release the lead of Saturn, let it rise, Let it rise along the pathways of the sun and the moon Let it rise up, let the kundalini rise Awaken, awaken! Awaken into enlightenment! We are one! We are one! Children of the sun We are one, we are one, Children of the sun, interconnected, We are love, our name is love, our name is love, We are you, you are I, you are us, we are one, The circle of love eternal, The fire of life eternal, Physics proves nothing, nothing ever dies All things endure forever as one, One light, one love, one hope, We are one, we are one! We are one! Children of the sun, children of the sun We are the children of the sun And we come to you from across the great divide, We come to warn you the four horsemen of the apocalypse ride, now... We come to you from across the universe To tell you it is time to stop those who destroy your earth We come to tell you the only way Is to open your hearts to peace, truth and love today See he who rides a steed that's rather vague For he rides 'neath the guise of Plague He crosses continents even as I speak His death and destruction to wreak And there are too many in the guise of woman and man Who are willing to give him a helping hand See he who rides a blood red steed And provides guns and bombs to those who believe That they need more His name is War, He has many followers who him adore And there are too many in the guise of woman and man Who shoot your brothers and sisters and steal their lands We are the children of the sun We carry no weapons, no guns nor spears We come to tell you you can only be defeated by greed, hatred or fear Hark! He who doth approach, His steed a giant cockroach! His voice is an advertising tune As he bades his followers consume, consume, consume The earth he lays to waste by his very presence, His name is Pestilence, And there are too many in the guise of woman and man Willing to give him a helping hand See - the steed he sits upon - it is a skeleton! He is the one that provides a child upon your telly With spindly legs and bloated belly His name is Famine And there are too many in the guise of woman and man Who rape your oceans and erode your lands We are the children of the sun And we come to you from across the great divide, We come to warn you the four horsemen of the apocalypse ride, now... We come to tell you this is a time To stop vegetation in front of TV screens, This is a time for meditation, this is a time to build new dreams So open up to the universal mind, Set yourselves free Just believe in truth and love and liberty, Liberty, liberty, liberty We are one, we are one, We are the children of the sun We are one, we are one, We are the children of the sun Peace and love Peace and love May all beings be happy...

I want you! I want you! Feed me! Feed me with your soul! Your soul! Your soul! You cried, you cried, you cried my name You thought, you thought you cried in vain I came, I came, I came, I came And here I come again And here I come again And here I come again And here I come again And here I come again And here I come again And here I come again again again again again... Succubus is coming for you... Succubus is... Succubus... Succubus...
