Remind Me to Smile Lyrics

We'll take a taxi to the show
We could report by phone
We could remind ourselves that
We must laugh

Reconsider: 'fame'
I need new reasons
This is detention it's not fun at all

[Chorus]
Remind Me to Smile
You know, 'the old friends' line
It gets so I feel like
I'm in this cold, glass, cage

I've got the horrors
Check, over my shoulder
I punch the air and fight but
No-one's there

You you oh no
Old scars don't show
We fall you see
Crawl crawl in love
I dive so clean
Young things don't scream
Toys toys so far
Boys boys you are

[Chorus]

Get off the car
Get off the phone
Move from my window, leave me alone

Keep your revivals
Keep your conventions
Keep all your fantasies that's all we are

Remind Me to Smile

This anthemic song finds Gary Numan reacting to his sudden celebrity and the apparently overwhelming adulation of his fans. He recalled to Mojo magazine December 2013: "I was really struggling with fame. It wasn't what I expected. My issues were connected with Asperger's. I was young, had this personality problem and suddenly I was famous. Not famous in a band, I was solo. I didn't have a manager; I was with a record company that had no success of their own, and I did everything – wrote, produced, did the album sleeves, played almost everything. So every bit of interest, pressure and hostility was directed right in my face. And I was just this little f---ed up mentalist trying to deal with it. I was totally unprepared."

The song was released as a promo single in the US, but Numan surprisingly declined to issue it as a 45 in his home country.

Little Invitro Lyrics

I can't believe
That you're gone and we're alone
I can't believe
That we'll never see your face

I can't believe
That you're at the gates of Heaven
I can't believe
That we'll never know you

If only, if only
Miracles happened every day
If only, if only
I could believe in something

Helpless we cried over you
Empty and lost over you

How in the world
Can they say that you're at peace?
How in the world
Can they say that time will heal us?

How in the world
Can we hope to be forgiven?
How in the world
Can we know how we feel?

If only, if only
We could all live forever
If only, if only
No memories to remember

Words were not spoken for you
No grave marks our love for you
Broken our hearts call for you
No-one can blame us but you

How in the world can we ever smile again
How in the world can we live without you
