01. Touch Sensitive (Smith/Nagle/Hitchcock) 3:17  Lyrics

Hey Hey Hey

Hey Hey Hey
I know, I know, I know

In the cars or on the street
If you smile you are a creep
If you don’t say it’s very cold
You are drunk or too old

They say what about the meek?
I say they’ve got a bloody cheek
Vanity and presumption [?]

Living in the pawn shop lately
I say Hey hey hey
Touch Sensitive

I know, I know, I know

And you’re dying for a pee
So you go behind a tree
And a Star Wars police vehicle pulls up
I say gimme a taxi

Touch Sensitive
Touch Sensitive

If you don’t say it’s very cold
You are drunk or too old
It's Touch Sensitive

In the cars or on the street
If you smile you are a creep
It’s Touch Sensitive

If you don’t say it’s very cold
You are Touch Sensitive

Touch Sensitive
Say Hey Hey Hey

I know, I know, I know

02. Touch Sensitive Dance Mix (Smith/Nagle/Hitchcock) 7:11
03. Antidote (Smith/Nagle) 3:03  Lyrics

Antidotes
And those who vote
Antidotes
Antidotes

Antidotes
And those who vote
Where chewing-gum is chewed
The chewer is pursued
Seventies
Every time
So second-rate about it

Antidotes and those who vote
Antidotes and those who vote
Antidotes and those who vote

Antidotes

No more inner-city for you
Antidotes and those who vote

Country

Carry on sir
Carry on sir

If liberty is
The sports-teaching kook

At liberty’s

The sports teacher’s
Antidotes

Antidotes and those who vote
Miss you, miss you, miss you...
Antidotes and those who vote
Antidotes
Antidotes and those who vote
Antidotes
Antidotes and those who vote

Antidotes
Miss you, miss you, miss you
