Dr. Martha Newson heads up new on-site research lab studying festival behaviour.
Lyrics
Petulant elbows, tiny kicking feet
I've been waiting for this moment
I'm on a roll
I've spent infinity, counting silent sheep
I don't need no more sleep, no
I'm all ready to go
I think today is gonna be my birthday
So I'm taking in the air
As if it were my last
I've got nothing to lose
I've got nothing to gain
So just like where I'm coming from
There's only one place to go
There's only one place to aim
I'm sliding down rainbows
Out into the wild
Uncultivated child
I'm taking in the sideshow
Where angels heaven sent
Prepare us for the main event
Now I'm gatecrashing into your scene
Like it or lump it I'm with the team
No invitation, pupil dilation
A little bit pissed but hey
It's only a dream
About this track

Madness →I ain't got nothing to lose
I ain't got nothing to gain
So just like where I'm coming from
There's only one place to go
There's only one place to aim
I'm sliding down rainbows
Out into the wild
Uncultivated child
I'm taking in the sideshow
Where angels heaven sent
Prepare us for the main event
I'm sliding down rainbows
Out into the wild
Uncultivated child
I'm taking in the sideshow
Where angels heaven sent
Prepare us for the main event
I feel today it could be my birthday
So I'm taking in the air
As if it was my last
I ain't got nothing to lose
I ain't got nothing to gain
So just like where I'm coming from
There's only one place to go
There's only one place to aim
Oh!
I'm sliding down rainbows
Out into the wild
Uncultivated child
I'm taking in the sideshow
Where angels heaven sent
Prepare us for the main event
I'm sliding down rainbows
Out into the wild
Uncultivated child
I'm taking in the sideshow
Where angels heaven sent
Prepare us for the main event
I'm sliding down rainbows
Out into the wild
Uncultivated child
