Brave New World(Todd Terry)

[00:00:00] Artilleryman:Halt Who goes there

[00:00:02] Journalist:Er friend

[00:00:04] Artilleryman:Be on your way

[00:00:06] This is my territory

[00:00:08] Journalist:Your territory What do you mean

[00:00:09] Artilleryman:Wait a minute it's you The man from Maybury Hill

[00:00:13] Journalist:Good heavens The Artilleryman I thought you surely burned

[00:00:17] Artilleryman:I thought you surely drowned

[00:00:17] Journalist:Have you seen any Martians

[00:00:20] Artilleryman:Everywhere

[00:00:20] We're done for all right

[00:00:27] Journalist:We can't just give up

[00:00:27] Artilleryman:Course we can't

[00:00:27] It's now we've got to start fighting but not against them 'cos we can't win

[00:00:29] Now we've got to fight for survival and I reckon we can make it

[00:00:34] I've got a plan

[00:00:34] Artilleryman:We're gonna build a whole new world for ourselves

[00:00:38] Look they clap eyes on us and we're dead right So we gotta make a new life where they'll never find us

[00:00:42] You know where Underground

[00:00:42] You should see it down there hundreds of miles of drains sweet and clean now after the rain dark quiet safe

[00:00:44] We can build houses and everything start again from scratch

[00:00:46] And what's so bad about living underground eh It's not been so great living up here if you want my opinion

[00:00:48] Take a look around you at the world we've come to know

[00:00:49] Does it seem to be much more than a crazy circus show

[00:00:51] But maybe from the madness something beautiful will grow

[00:00:52] In a brave new world

[00:00:52] With just a handful of men

[00:00:53] We'll start we'll start all over again all over again all over again all over again

[00:00:55] We'll build shops and hospitals and barracks right under their noses right under their feet Everything we need banks prisons and schools We'll send scouting parties to collect books and stuff and men like you'll teach the kids

[00:01:03] Not poems and rubbish science so we can get everything working

[00:01:05] We'll build villages and towns and and we'll play each other at cricket Listen maybe one day we'll capture a fighting machine eh Learn how to make 'em ourselves and then wallop Our turn to do some wiping out Whoosh with our Heat Ray Whoosh And them running and dying beaten at their own game

[00:01:19] Man on top again

[00:01:19] Now our domination of the Earth is fading fast

[00:01:33] And out of the confusion the chance has come at last

[00:01:34] To build a better future from the ashes of the past

[00:01:37] In a brave new world

[00:01:37] With just a handful of men

[00:01:39] We'll start all over again

[00:01:40] Look Man is born in freedom but he soon becomes a slave

[00:01:42] In cages of convention from the cradle to the grave

[00:01:44] The weak fall by the wayside but the strong will be saved

[00:01:45] In a brave new world

[00:01:46] With just a handful of men

[00:01:46] We'll start all over again

[00:01:48] I'm not trying to tell you what to be

[00:01:50] Oh no oh no not me

[00:01:51] But if mankind is to survive

[00:01:52] The people left alive

[00:01:52] They're gonna have to build this world anew

[00:01:53] And it's going to have to start with me and you

[00:01:55] Yes

[00:01:55] I'm not trying to tell you what to be

[00:01:57] Oh no oh no not me

[00:01:58] But if mankind is to survive

[00:01:58] The people left alive

[00:01:59] They're gonna have to build this world anew

[00:02:01] Yes and we will have to be the chosen few

[00:02:02] Just think of all the poverty the hatred and the lies

[00:02:03] And imagine the destruction of all that you despise

[00:02:05] Slowly from the ashes the phoenix will arise

[00:02:07] In a brave new world

[00:02:08] With just a handful of men

[00:02:10] We'll start all over again

[00:02:11] Take a look around you at the world you've loved so well

[00:02:12] And bid the ageing empire of man a last farewell

[00:02:14] It may not sound like Heaven but at least it isn't Hell

[00:02:15] It's a brave new world

[00:02:16] With just a handful of men

[00:02:16] We'll start we'll start all over again all over again all over again all over again

[00:02:19] I've got a plan

[00:02:20] Can't you just see it Civilization starting all over again a second chance

[00:02:23] We'll even build a railway and tunnel to the coast go there for our holidays

[00:02:24] Nothing can stop men like us

[00:02:26] I've made a start already

[00:02:26] Come on down here and have a look

[00:02:27] Journalist:In the cellar was a tunnel scarcely ten yards long that had taken him a week to dig

[00:02:30] I could have dug that much in a day and I suddenly had my first inkling of the gulf between his dreams and his powers

[00:02:32] Artilleryman:It's doing the workin' and the thinkin' that wears a feller out

[00:02:35] I'm ready for a bit of a rest

[00:02:37] How about a drink eh Nothing but champagne now I'm the boss

[00:02:38] Journalist:We drank and then he insisted upon playing cards

[00:02:39] With our species on the edge of extermination with no prospect but a horrible death we actually played games

[00:02:41] Later he talked more of his plan but I saw flames flashing in the deep blue night

[00:02:43] Red W**d glowing tripod figures moving distantly and I put down my champagne glass

[00:02:45] I felt a traitor to my kind and I knew I must leave this strange dreamer

[00:02:47] Artilleryman:Take a look around you at the world we've come to know

[00:02:49] Does it seem to be much more than a crazy circus show

[00:03:08] Maybe from the madness something beautiful will grow
