Lyrics

Straight as an arrow
Defect, defect
Not straight, not so straight
Reject, reject
Towards anti-social
Solo, solo

Standing on the stairs
Cold, cold morning
Ghostly image of fear
Mayday, mayday
Gonna leave this region
They'll take me with them

Dimension seven

Straight as an arrow
Defect, defect
Not straight, not so straight
Reject, reject
Towards anti-social
Solo, solo

Standing on the stairs
Cold, cold morning
Ghostly image of fear
Mayday, mayday
Gonna leave this region
They'll take me with them

Dimension seven

Straight as an arrow
Defect, defect
Not straight, not so straight
Reject, reject
Towards anti-social
Solo, solo

Dimension seven (x7)



Original version as performed by The Wipers
Music & Lyrics by Greg Sage

Straight as an arrow
Defect defect
Not straight not so straight
Reject reject
Towards anti-social
Dull dull so dull

Standing on the stairs
Cold cold morning
Ghostly image of fear
Mayday mayday
Gonna leave this region
They'll take me with them

Dimension 7 (x2)

Straight as an arrow
Defect defect
Not straight not so straight
Reject reject
Towards anti-social
Dull dull so dull

Past astro borders
Zeno lies waiting
Past gaseous remains
Intrigue such intrigue
Gonna leave this region
They're taking me with them

Straight as an arrow
Defect defect
Not straight not so straight
Reject reject
Towards anti-social
Dull dull so dull

Dimension 7 (x7)
