Trams
I will design a town in the image of your face.
Round the wrinkles of your eyes my footsteps you can trace.
We could promenade down infra-nasel depression.
The streets of your hands will never feel a recession.
It's a secular day and it will be even better tomorrow.
It's the first day of the intergrated transport hub,
Let us celebrate this monumental progress.
We have reduced emmisions by 75%

Song description from an interview on dosomething.org:
These alternative rockers prefer eco-friendly transport to gas guzzling limos. The Super Furry Animals’ new hit single is called “Inaugural Trams” and paints a picture of an emission free future. Gotta love these Welsh rockers who play with a purpose!
They sing about an undisclosed Utopian European city of the future where a new transportation system has just been unveiled. They have reduced emissions by 75% with their “integrated transport hub.” Oh, and did we mention that the song features Nick McCarthyFranz Ferdinand who performs an impromptu German rap?
Das ist akustische Umweltverschmutzung und gehört verboten! Superf***** Animals!
I don't particularly think it's bad, I rated it a 6. But it is an odd one. Not bad noise if you don't put too much into the lyrics.
Get Down! 
This is off-the-scales bad...
Is this seriously a song about the ecological benefits of mass transit?
"It's a secular day (trams) and it will be even better tomorrow (trams),
It's the first day (trams) of the integrated transport hub (trams).
Let us celebrate (trams) this monumental progress (trams),
We have reduced (trams) emissions by seventy-five per cent (trams)."

Weirdorama! (insert weirdorama emoticon here)
...and the disc jockey says, "Here is a song that is different!" 
Very interesting, to say the least.
Another good song from this album!
This song just gave me a migraine.
Someone just chimed in with a "1"
Nothing below 3 and nothing above 8...I don't think I have ever seen that before.
no... just no
Reminds me a bit of extremely upbeat Blue October. Not bad for an off-the-wall summertime tune. Gets a 6 for starts.
Somebody has been smoking pot and listening to their old Kraftwerk albums.
Trans Europe Express for the 00's!
Pretty hard to take, although my foot does tap.

...wow - i was really reminded of peter-gabriel-era genesis at first...
Did someone slip LSD in my coffee?

Excellent research! Europeans are far ahead of North Americas when it comes to reducing greenhouse gas emissions. Kudos to the SFAs for their eco-friendly attitude!
