Magic Moments At Twilight Time Meanwhile, tis time to also end the MMATT story as far as "Flashbax Ω Ultimate" is concerned. The very last track we did for cassette release was "Freedom Overflow" in 1992, specially recorded as a theme tune for our favourite pirate radio station, Captain Garry Lee's set up of the same name, nowadays "Starship Overflow"! You know you've gone up in the world when you jump from a gutter to a Starship, eh? This is the final track from the bonus selection on the album, "Flashbax Alpha II", enjoy muchly...

Some memories of my visit to the Overflow in May 1992

Magic Moments At Twilight Time And that brings us to here! Thank you, goodnight!

"MAGIC MOMENTS AT TWILIGHT TIME"

The story started years ago when came down from the skies

A craft of gleaming silver white, not seen by Earthmen's eyes

Aboard, an ageing scientist from some far distant world

From spacial peace he came amid this human madness hurled

For many years he sheltered from the storm that followed near

Asylum from the 'Taker's gun, to bring the darkest fear

You hide away...

Friends are shadows, eyes gaze high

Searching for lights in night skies

The answer is The Sacred Scroll, pretence in searching for

In altered states experiment, for Darkness evermore

Said "Step from your acidic dream and welcome to The Ta'inge

Stick with me, you'll never die, we're both a little strange."

A nightmare world of light and sound, some psychotronic trance

Captivity that brought me down, yet still I sang and danced

Can't run away...

Please release me from the stage

From this electronic rage

Then the revolution came, the freakshow came sublime

And Magic Moments filled my mind with sound At Twilight Time

Removed his mask, I saw his face, his flesh near crystallised

But something sparkled in his eyes, my time to realise

Hypnotically he held us all, like mannequins we played

Soon we knew our time had come to step out from the shade

Our time to run...

Out of darkness, blinding light

Give me freedom from the night

He understood his need for us, still cloaked in mystery

As back through time we travelled to distort our history

Before our eyes went time again, the scientist vaporised

He seemed to vanish into space and then before our eyes

The Biodroid stood in his place, in leather clad he smiled

He put his arms around me, said;

"Hey, kid, this ain't your style,

You'll find your way..."

Time is short now, take my hand

Spend it wisely, understand

He played guitar...

Into The Crypt we fade away, the dream had all but gone

But from The Crypt we rose again, the flesh, The Psychotron

In Zoen Nostalgia, meditate, the time had come to part

But memories can never die, the new state of the art

And ever on...

Electronic fantasy, synthesis in mystery

Psychotronic entity, strange emotion, entropy
