about

Conspiracy theories offer comfort in a chaotic world, but the real unsettling truth is that nobody truly holds the reins - the world navigates without a rudder. Let's face it, the universe is ambivalent, but we're alive - so let's celebrate that!

lyrics

UTTERLY RUDDERLESS

We put the lizards into power
Gave them our children to deflower
Didn’t we? Didn’t we?

We put the moon inside a box
Pay-per-view paper moon – yes I watch
Television, television

Jesus was an astronaut
He’s gonna save us all from hurt
Isn’t he? Isn’t he?

I read the books by dead white men
Read ‘em up, read ‘em up, read ‘em again
Didn’t I? Didn’t I?

Chaos, chaos, chaos, woah
You need to know we are alone
The universe is not your friend
At most it is ambivalent

Rudderless, utterly rudderless
Rudderless, utterly rudderless
Rudderless, utterly rudderless
I think we are!

Love yourself, love yourself
Learn to love yourself, learn to love yourself
Love yourself, love yourself
‘cos no one else is gonna love you

Read the books by dead white men
Read ‘em up, read ‘em up, read ‘em again
Didn’t you? Didn't you?

Jesus was an astronaut
He’s gonna save all those who bought a
Television, television
Isn’t he? Isn’t he?

Chaos, chaos, chaos, woah
You need to know we are alone
The universe is not your friend
At most it is ambivalent

Rudderless, utterly rudderless
Rudderless, utterly rudderless
Rudderless, utterly rudderless
Absolument!

Oh, I've got to get myself a colour television
Utterly rudderless, utterly rudderless
