Biography:
XTC were a rock band from Swindon, England led by Andy Partridge (guitars, vocals) and Colin Moulding (bass, vocals). Active between the late 1970s and the mid 2000s, XTC's music ranged from jerky new wave/punk riffs to lushly-arranged progressive pop. They also drew heavily from vintage pop rock and psychedelia from the 1960s, genres which they began to explore more deeply after creating The Dukes of Stratosphear side-project. While XTC failed to maintain significant commercial success after the 1980s

hey, hey the clouds are whey
there's straw for the tinkers and
the innocents can all sleep safely
all sleep safely
my, my,sun is pie
there's fodder for the cannons and
the guilty one's can all sleep safely
all sleep safely
and all the world is football-shaped
it's just for me to kick in space
and I can see, hear, smell, touch, taste
and I've got one, two, three, four, five
senses working overtime
trying to take this all in
I've got one, two, three, four, five
senses working overtime
trying to taste the difference
between a lemon and a lime
pain and the pleasure and
the church bells softly chime
hey, hey, night fights day
there's food for the tinkers and
the innocents can all live slowly
all live slowly
my, my, the sky will cry
jewels for the thirsty and
the guilty one's can all die slowly
all die slowly
and all the world is biscuit-shaped
it's just for me to feed my face
and I can see, hear, smell, touch, taste
and I've got one, two, three, four, five
senses working overtime
and birds might fall from black skies
and bullies might give you black eyes
but to me they're very very beautiful (englands glory)
beautiful (A striking beauty)
and all the world is football shaped
it's just for me to kick in space
and I can see, hear, smell, touch, taste
and I've got one, two, three, four, five
senses working overtime
trying to take all this in
I've got one, two, three, four five
senses working overtime
try to tell the difference
between the goods and crimes
dirt and treasure and there's
one, two, three, four, five
senses working overtime.......
