Moving away from the funk of Venemous Eye, this is a far more experimental track, influenced by Coldcut's "Noah's Toilet" and the Special's "Ghost Town".

Lyrics
Welcome to the valley of death population 2 That's you and me, so take a cup of coffee And sit back down, and Let me tell you all about the ghost town. This town, is turning to a ghost town. This town, is turning to a ghost town. Parched indignation of an empty land, The tumbleweeds a-twisting through the desert sand. Through blasted penetrations rooted in the ground The whistling of the wind provides the only sound. The people are the shadows in the shut-up shops Scorching sun shines through the windows blazing hot. Water, food, and citizens are nowhere to be found Absent in the abscess of the ghost town. This town, is turning to a ghost town. This town, is turning to a ghost town. And the rich get richer, the poor get taken away And the vultures go hungry, for another day. Stand in the silence, where the old town once stood The coloured blinds of a tortured mind that can't now but could. The new town is a landscape of a fevered bad dream What was then is now, what is now has been. So put aside the coffee cup, and stand in the shade. The complex combinations of your game have been played. Dig up the dust where the bad seeds were sown, And stagger from the stupor of the old ghost town. This town, is turning to a ghost town. This town, is turning to a ghost town.
