From Their 1979 Album Drums and Wires.
Lyrics:
Am I asleep
Or am I fast
You every race
You first, you last
Roads girdle the globe
We all safe in your concrete robe
Hail mother motor
Hail piston rotor
Hail wheel
Roads girdle the globe
Am I tied in
Or do I turn
Your sacred incense
You tyre burn
Steer me Anna
Am I get there
When is A, B
Oil, iron, steel
You holy three

@djanord Drums and Wires is a truly great album. Black Sea as well. Ah, those were the days. Wish I was back there sometimes.

'Drums and Wires' has more unexpected and original musical ideas than 99% of all other cats.

Great, great! Andy and Colin made my teenage days beautiful!

Crash. Boom. Bang! Man these cats were primal & great musicians. They could do the dissonance vs. melody better than any punk or new wave band around.

@kurtsteele7 no new wave is nonsense cause this is proper post punk. gotta draw a line there....

this is why i never call XTC a new wave band, a new wave band would never write something this badass.

It's brilliant. Real highpoint of the English new-wave period.
