Hello? Hello
Hello, hello, hello, hello, what do you know?
Islands, islands
One by one in an archipelago
If you’re asking me what’s my home team
I tell you it’s the same as yours
And I tell you twice this is paradise
But I don’t wanna leave the shore
I’m a people person first
And I know people are the worst
A people person so
Some things I don’t wanna know
Whatever you do, do more
Do more, do more, do more than you did before
Wherever you are, beware
Beware, beware, beware, beware, be where you are
You were on your way to work today
But there’s nothing they can pay you for
They will tell you twice this is paradise
But we’re gonna have to leave the shore
I’m a people person though
And I’m not so prepared to go
A people person first
Some people are the worst
I’m a people person first
And I know people are the worst
A people person so
Some things I don’t wanna know

Cardboard Man

Slow down, slow disco that’s what you wanted
Come down, life is short, as we know it
And while we’re waiting for the cosmic call
We’re still debating how we learned to crawl
We sing as if we know the one and only song
Here comes the man-made man
To wave a man-made hand
Here comes that cardboard hero
And there’s no empty space
Where you won’t find his face
Here comes the cardboard hero
And while we’re waiting for a change of scene
We put some money in the change machine
Here comes somebody who will always stay the same
Here comes the cardboard man
To wave a cardboard hand
Here comes that man-made hero
And there’s no empty space
Where you won’t find his face
Here comes that cardboard hero
Who needs a man-made hero?
Who needs a man-made man?
Don’t want no cardboard heroes
Don’t want no cardboard man
Slow down, slow disco that’s what you wanted
Slow down, roads on fire, no escape
And zooming out we see the world is too
But hey no worries – we know what to do
Here comes somebody who could really catch a flame
Here comes the cardboard man
To wave a cardboard hand
Here come the man-made hero
Check out that suit he wears
The fabric never tears
Here comes that cardboard hero
Who needs a man-made hero?
Who needs a man-made man?
Don’t want no cardboard heroes
Don’t want no cardboard man
