    Lyrics
    Taken by surprise by the size of my brain
    Knowing all the time all the lies all the games
    Thinking up a storm when it storms it's going to rain
    Taking what's mine all the time, all the time
    Take some for yourself
    It's all good for something
    And when there's no more to give
    The window will shine in the light
    On what's left for me
    Knowin' your mind, knowin' your mind
    That you've got to remember
    You've got to remember, your name
    Knowin' your mind, knowin' your mind
    That you've got to remember
    That you've got to remember, your name
    Staggering around, can't find a place to sit down
    Nothing suits my ass
    Toast to some champagne of pain
    I know you can bring us all a bottle
    Remember the time when time was a friend
    And you could make him lend you a hand
    Now there's a place where taking takes place
    And time just gets in your way
    Take some for yourself
    It's all good for something
    And when there's no more to give
    The window will shine in the light
    On what's left for me
    Knowin' your mind, knowin' your mind
    That you've got to remember
    That you've got to remember, your name
    Knowin' your mind, knowin' your mind
    That you've got to remember
    You've got to remember, your name
    Knowin' your mind, knowin' your mind
    That you've got to remember
    You've got to remember, your name
    Knowin' your mind, knowin' your mind
    That you've got to remember
    You've got to remember, your name
    Yeah, take some for yourself
    It's all good for something
    And when there's no more to give
    The window will shine in the light
    Take some for yourself
    It's all good for something
    And when there's no more to give
    The window will shine in the light
    On what's left for me
    What's left for me

      We had to nag the DJ at a club to play this back in 1999. He didn't think people would like it, boy was he wrong. That floor filled up so fast I'm sure there were at least 250 people in a tight club all tripping balls and the whole club was shaking. Even outside you could feel that something special was going on here

    This song featured Neil Cole (as Djum Djum) on vocals, and it was rumoured that the lyrics were in an unspecified African language; it was later revealed that they were simply gibberish, or "Djum Djum talk" - from Wikipedia.

    I took this album on a dive trip to Egypt in about 98 - the Egyptian guys working on the boat went absolutely nuts for this track - always asking to borrow my MiniDisc player and played this on continuous loop.
    I'd assumed that they could understand what the guy was saying or something .... derp!

    It's not a language. It's actually a common thing in this particular African dialect to simply speak gibberish. Leftfield and the vocalist on this song have both admitted to this in interviews.
