The full lyrics for this great Yazoo song are not to be found on the entire internet. I did some fun audio processing to extract all the different voices... some of the words are a bit tricky.

There would, stop because
there will always be, because
there will always be, for two
there will always

inside, you can feel the
outside, you can see the difference
inside, stop, inside, difference
outside, out stop, inside, you can feel the difference
feel the
you can difference, difference, difference
you can see the, feel the difference
you can stop, stop, and see the, you can stop, you can see the difference

Dragons, the policeman knew,
were supposed to breathe, to breath fire, fire, to breathe fire
and occasionally get themselves, get themselves
slaughtered, slaughtered, slaughtered
he decided.

That would definitely not he decided
stop, stop
definitely not
stop, stop
not
definitely
That would that would that would
stop
definitely decided
decided decided decided
not not
stop
he decided

(repeat)

[old woman 1]
the basis of the all important process
involved in the mixing, and regeneration, of a person's voice
incapable of any distinction, between frequency response
is such that the entire output, is revealed in the voice
is the actual voice itself, and the voice being used
is the voice being used, is the voice being used
used voice being used
being used voice
being voice

(repeat)


[young woman, with laughter]
this type of formation can only be explained
when two or more separate units are linked together
thus forming a string only detectable
through specially designed equipment
or at least that's what I thought
stop.

is that enough?

(repeat)


[old woman 2]

despite the pure outlook
which have been forced upon me
stop stop upon me
force the tools available
I decided to use the tools available
mainly because the function of the stop the stop
available being used
demanded an experience which I did not fully understand

(repeat)

Yes, I'm all right [laughter]

The only word I'm not 100% sure about is "pure" for old woman 2. Aside from that it's solid.

Is the man Vince Clarke? Is the young laughing woman Alison Moyet?

What I want to know is, where did they get the text these people are reading? Did they make it up? None of it seems to search in google.
