The Mad Stone Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Are you coming outside?
I can make it a business, I can sell you it
Do you live in a mine?
A notorious black spot up-and-coming, I hear
Let the Wizardtalk come
At the peak of Choice Mountain, you've been saving up
Are you really this old?
I can make it a business

[Chorus]
Come with me to the Mad Stone (Run all night, all night, never get free)
Above you (Run all night, all night, never get free)
Mad Stone (Run all night, all night, never get free)
Let it control you (Run all night, all night, never get free)

[Post-Chorus]
At the very top there was a screen that showed a picture of a man who stood there looking at a picture of a man who stood there looking at a picture of a picture of a man on a screen
And he was looking at another picture of a man who stood there looking at a picture of a man who stood there looking at a picture of a picture of a man who was the double of me

[Verse 2]
So you scrimp and you save
I got wild in the aisles, son, let me tell you that!
Did you set me aflame?
I can sell you a firehose, put out all of it now
Do you think it's all true?
Nothing quite so romantic, there's no oxygen
I'm a Mountainhead too
What is that, a religion?

[Chorus]
Come with me to the Mad Stone (Run all night, all night, never get free)
Above you (Run all night, all night, never get free)
The Mad Stone (Run all night, all night, never get free)
Let it control you (Run all night, all night, never get free)

[Post-Chorus]
At the very top there was a screen that showed a picture of a man who stood there looking at a picture of a man who stood there looking at a picture of a picture of a man on a screen
And he was looking at another picture of a man who stood there looking at a picture of a man who stood there looking at a picture of a picture of a man who was the double of me

[Bridge]
Strange winds are blowing
On this mortal plane
You get no pleasure from your pleasure centre
In your reptile brain
The Mad Stone is singing
Can you say the same?
You get no pleasure from your pleasure centre
In your reptile brain

[Chorus]
This is the Mad Stone (Run all night, all night, never get free)
Above you (Run all night, all night, never get free)
The Mad Stone (Run all night, all night, never get free)
Let it control you (Run all night, all night, never get free)

[Post-Chorus]
At the very top there was a screen that showed a picture of a man who stood there looking at a picture of a man who stood there looking at a picture of a picture of a man on a screen
And he was looking at another picture of a man who stood there looking at a picture of a man who stood there looking at a picture of a picture of a man who was the double of me

[Outro]
Run all night, all night, never get free

What did Everything Everything say about "The Mad Stone"?

Jonathan Higgs:

This is more about the religious element to the idea [of the album]. It’s more like a spiritual song in its presentation and its content. It sounds like an argument between two or three people who really believe in this idea of the mountain and people who are very doubtful about it....
