Stereolab - The Man with 100 Cells lyrics

Refusing what you are given
You want things to be the old way
Resisting the revolutions
Changes are coming anyway

Unable to thrive to change
The mask doesn't veil anymore
Strip yourself of all your riddles
Do not reject all the lessons

You're not a child anymore
You're not your former self
And what's reality now?
The tools you've used to get by
Aren't the keys to your tomorrows
The wind is blowing the sea is shifting
The storm is rumbling darkness descending
The gales are sweeping the waves threatening
Horizon is grim tempest arriving

Hey skipper, look ahead, navigate
Hey skipper, look ahead, navigate
Hey skipper, use your head, manoeuvre
Hey skipper, look ahead, navigate

Oh the winds can blow but
Your sails can defeat it
The storms may rumble
We all know your hull is fit

That sea is rough now mind you do not slip
Could destroy your ship put a nail in it

When darkness descends
Your radar will be your sight
The waves may unleash
Your mast will stay standing high
You are the captain do you feel equipped?
You have now taken the helm of your ship
