about

One of the demos we recorded at Matinee Studios, Reading in March 1982, while working on songs for the Fact And Fiction album. Although neither the words nor the music featured on the final album, the title was!

lyrics

time is here place is now
pace becoming faster
in several ways
the passing days
probes beneath the plaster

constant fact and fiction
carries the mind away
constant fact and fiction
seem to be here

pull the switch dream deep rich
monument to the system
pouring in
the choice must win
whoever has time to listen

constant fact and fiction
carries the mind away
constant fact and fiction
seem to be here to stay

gasping in the flood
I need some air
is there any high ground?

so it goes
the body blows
stylistic perfection
the despot's fate
to contemplate
a nuclear erection

constant fact and fiction
carries the mind away
constant fact and fiction
seem to be here
constant fact and fiction
carries the mind away
constant fact and fiction
seem to be here to stay
