The Icicle Works

The Icicle Works are an English alternative rock band and were named after the 1960 short story "The Day the Icicle Works Closed" by science fiction author Frederik Pohl. They had a top 20 UK hit with "Love Is a Wonderful Colour" (1983). In the US and Canada, they had only one top 40 hit, the 1984 single "Birds Fly (Whisper to a Scream)". Led by singer/songwriter Ian McNabb, the band released five albums from 1984 to 1990 before breaking up in 1991. McNabb later convened a revised line-up of the band in 2006 to play live shows; this revised Icicle Works line-up still plays sporadic live dates. more »

 Become A Better Singer In Only 30 Days, With Easy Video Lessons!

Armadillo skin and the leafy green
Our minds are where we keep her
The ideals born of the western world
Were always buried deeper

When at the end of the working day
We imitate the mountains
Riding high on a wanderlust
To question what we came for

You know, we're living for your love
You know, we're living for you
Come out of the dark elusive one
Hear your subjects who call you

You know, we're living for your love
You know, we're living for you
Come out of the dark, be sure of this
Nirvana we adore you

Burned and dry our sights are high
Forever young with wonder
With our bare hands, built an empire there
To sacrifice and plunder

You know, we're living for your love
You know, we're living for you
Come out of the dark elusive one
Hear your subjects who call you

You know, we're living for your love
You know, we're living for you
Come out of the dark, be sure of this
Nirvana we adore you
