No thanks for the memory[00:00:15]

No thanks at all[00:00:19]

No way we can wipe the slate or contrive escape[00:00:22]

From the names we're called[00:00:27]

No thanks for the memory[00:00:33]

Here it comes again[00:00:37]

This life running on the spot[00:00:41]

Though we hide a lot[00:00:43]

With our cover names[00:00:45]

We can no more change the past than shed our skins[00:00:55]

But we keep on thinking that we might go someplace[00:01:09]

Where not a soul knows what has gone before[00:01:13]

With such headfuls of selfaccusation[00:01:17]

That we don't even know our own names anymore[00:01:20]

No thanks for the memory[00:01:28]

No thanks[00:01:35]

Call them by a different name and turn about[00:01:42]

We can no more change our spots than wash them out[00:01:57]

No thanks for the memory[00:02:12]

Locked in the frame[00:02:16]

No way we can change the pattern of things that happened[00:02:19]

Under cover names[00:02:24]

And we keep on skirting round the true confession[00:02:30]

With fresh identities and bestlaid plans[00:02:33]

And we keep on working to outreach the shadow[00:02:37]

But the shadow will outrun the man[00:02:41]

With such headfuls of selfaccusation[00:02:44]

That no pseudonyms can hide our shame[00:02:48]

Lost in a jungle of our own creation[00:02:51]

Lost in a labyrinth of cover names[00:02:55]

We can no more change the past than live again[00:03:02]

We can no more shed our skins than know our real names[00:03:17]

Nobody knows our real name[00:03:27]

Nobody knows their real name[00:03:37]

We hide under cover names[00:03:44]

No thanks for the memory[00:03:48]
