Music for Chameleons
Harmony Unveiled: Gary Numan's Musical Reflection on Human Nature
Lyrics
At 4 o'clock we land
Arrival at 4 o'clock
And I'll wave my flag for you
Expressing loyalty and support
Interest in heart
Curiosity or enthusiasm
We are not savage
Rejecting savagery, emphasizing humanity
Like children
Emphasizing innocence or simplicity
We're people
Asserting human identity
What difference I say
Questioning the significance of differences
Music for chameleons
Highlighting adaptability and change
Music for chameleons
Reiteration of adaptability
A dream of siam
Reference to a dream of Siam, a place of serenity
We could leave in the morning
Possibility of departure in the morning
Old friends and shy
Referring to old friends and shyness
We need to win
Emphasizing the need for victory
Like you need to breathe
Comparing necessity to breathe with winning
I've an interest in games
Expressing interest in games or challenges
Music for chameleons
Reiteration of adaptability through music
Music for chameleons
Reiteration of music's adaptability
Gowns for another show
Reference to gowns for a performance
Maybe no-one will come
Suggesting uncertainty about attendance
Here take my arm
Offering companionship or support
I like the pictures
Expressing enjoyment of visual experiences
And you like ghost stories
Highlighting differing interests in stories
Tomorrow I'll sigh
Anticipating a sigh or expression of weariness
Music for chameleons
Reiteration of music's adaptability
Music for chameleons
