Lying here beside you in someone else's bed
Knowing what were doing's wrong, but better left unsaid
Your breathing sounds like screaming, it's all that I can stand
His ring is on your finger, but my heart is in your hands
Damned if you love me
Damned if you don't
It's getting harder holding on, but I can't let you go
Damned if you don't need me
Damned if you do
Oh God, I wish it wasn't me standin' in these shoes
Damned, damned
A door slams like a shotgun, you jump up to your feet
But it's just the wind blowing through the secrets that we keep
Made me want to want you, God knows I need to need you
By the time the love is over, I'll be sleeping on the streets
Damned if you love me
Damned if you don't
It's getting harder holding on, but I can't let you go
Damned if you don't need me
Damned if you do
Oh God, I wish it wasn't me standin' in these shoes
Why don't you talk to me?
(Because I'm too blind to see)
Why won't you look at me?
(Because I'm afraid to breathe)
What do you want from me?
(All that I can stand)
The lies are on my tongue, and I can't turn back I know
My soul is damned
Don't worry
I ain't gonna call you or hear you say my name
And if you see me on the streets, don't wave just walk away
Our lives are getting twisted, let's keep our stories straight
The more that I resist it, my temptation turns to fate
Damned if you love me
Damned if you don't
It's getting harder holding on, but I can't let you go
Damned if you don't need me
Damned if you do
Oh God, I wish it wasn't me standin' in these shoes
Damned, yeah, damned, yeah
Damned if you love me
Damned if you don't
It's getting harder holding on, but I can't let you go
Damned if you don't need me
Damned if you do
God, I wish it wasn't me standin' in these shoes
Damned, ah, damned, yeah
Ah, damned, yeah
I'm lying here beside you in someone else's bed
Knowing what were doing's wrong
But better left unsaid
Your breathing sounds like screaming
It's all that I can stand
His ring is on your finger
But my heart is in your hands
Damned if you love me
Damned if you don't
It's getting harder holding on, but I can't let you go
Damned if you don't need me
Damned if you do
God, I wish it wasn't me standin' in these shoes
Damned, damned
A door slams like a shotgun, you jump up to your feet
But it's just the wind blowing through the secrets that we keep
Made me want to want you, God knows I need to need you
By the time the love is over, I'll be sleeping on the streets
Damned if you love me
Damned if you don't
It's getting harder holding on, but I can't let you go
Damned if you don't need me
Damned if you do
God, I wish it wasn't me standin' in these shoes
Damned, damned
Why don't you talk to me? (Because I'm too blind to see)
Why don't you look at me? (Because I'm afraid to breath)
What do you want from me? (All that I can stand)
The lies are on my tongue and I can't turn back I know

Damned if you don't need me
Damned if you do
God, I wish it wasn't me standin' in these shoes
Took a little time, before we're done to love me
Took a little more than I ever did before
Took your bad intentions
Took all your excite
If I didn't mention
Took my inhuman rights
It's a heavy-weight title 'bout
The more I live the more I find out
Damned for if I love me
Damned for if I care
Damned for all the make you feel betters
As the damned scream this ain't fair
Damned for if I love me
Damned for if I care
Damned for all the make you feel betters
As the damned scream this ain't fair
Had a little time before I went and fucked me
Had a little trouble, getting up off the floor
Had you're I'm not like that
Had a hand up in my face
Head bobbing like a wet rat
No love for the human race, yeah
The more fuel, the farther I go
The more I live the more I, no, no, no
Damned for if I love me
Damned for if I care
Damned for all the make you feel betters
As the damned scream this ain't fair
Damned for if I love me
Damned for if I care
Damned for all the make you feel betters
As the damned scream this ain't fair
Damned if I do and damned if I don't
Damned if I will and damned if I won't
Damned for your screamin' that this ain't fair
Goddamn your screamin' 'cause I don't care
Took a little time before you tried to do me
Made a little spot for you right there on the floor
So fuck your good intentions
Fuck your human rights
Fuck your finger in my face
This time I'm gonna bite
Damned for if I love me
Damned for if I care
Damned for all the make you feel betters
As the damned scream this ain't fair
Damned for if I love me
Damned for if I care
Damned for all the make you feel betters
Don't smoke don't fight don't light no cigarettes
Or else you'll wind up in the can
No jokes no rights sit tight don't fool around
You are a guest of Uncle Sam
Stand up look right don't slouch and stand at ease
Allow no sex above the knees
When I snap you jump into the master plan
I'll be damned
Well I'll be damned
I'll be damned if I drink or smoke
Damned if I steal your joke
I'll be damned if I go for broke
Damned if I do
Damned if I don't
Don't talk don't fool don't try to mess around
I'll make a monkey outta you
You sign your name right on that dotted line boy
I'll be damned
I'll be damned if I drink or smoke
Damned if I steal your joke
I'll be damned if I go for broke
Damned if I do
And damned if I don't
I'll be damned if I drink or smoke
Damned if I steal your joke
I'll be damned if I go for broke
I'm damned if I do
I'm damned if I don't
I'll be damned if I drink or smoke
Damned if I steal your joke
I'll be damned if I go for broke
I'm damned if I do
I'm damned if I don't
I'll be damned (6x)
Feeling crazy in a crowd
So alone, and I don't know why
Don't always seem so right inside
There's a change and it's
It's, always rising
Should I laugh, should I cry
Should I just let it go
No more time to change my mind
It's on with the show
And no more tears
Sure enough the clouds will cry
To wash away this, this mood
That I'm feeling
In the shadows cut from life
See the faces, as they roll on by
Should I laugh, should I cry
Should I just let it go
No more time to change my mind
It's just on with the show
well i've seen you hanging round and round
on the streets with something on your mind
don't you think that i'm being fresh?
only want to lay with you
i promise you won't smell no fish
i said fish
well i don't want you to think i'm being obscene
when i say say say i wanna hold your hand
feelin' kinda cold,need somethin hot to hold
only wanna lay with you
i promise you won't smell no fish
i said fish
(solo)
fish,fish
well i've seen you hangin round and round
on the streets with somethin thats on your mind
don't you think that i'm being fresh
only wanna lay with you
i promise you won't smell no fish
i said fish
i said fish
i'm gonna stay in bed all day
i'm not gonna hear a word you say
it's gonna be a life of style for me
electric blankets,pillows,fire,and tv
chorus :
take a look outside
those lively arts are on the slide
and culture's just a bore
when you're angry ,young and poor
but if i got my way
those idle rich would pay
when the discussion starts
on the lively arts
i'm gonna be a lazy slob
stuff the folks and sod the job
and tell the foreman that i'm ill
and in a week i'll be here still
yes i will
i gotta full mon
a small room that i need
a candy store,a sexy whore
yes i bleed
a sifting sand,and an electronic hand
yes i'm mine
a souped up truck,a gobbling suck
yes i'm blind
(chorus) :-
but i fall........well i fall
well i fall .......yes i fall
my mind's a raging blame
a crying shame ,and i'm sad
a city of sin,a bottle of gin
so dog-gone bad
a cool reaction for the big attraction
that's fine
a messed up gut or nacked cut
yeah that's fine
(repeat chorus)
i'm a falling angel
falling down
be a falling angel
won't you come on round?
don't be scared to follow
it's no crime
you're a falling angel
before your time
(solo bit)
Shadows fall in the places we used to play
My toys have all been packed away
The rocking horse rocks in its box
A spinning top and Corporal Clott
Are a dusty lot
Many times I said I'd drop you a line
I guess I'm just a rotten swine
Who takes his time
And walks for fun when she should run
The damaged one is you old chum
(chorus)
Who's the sucker now (x2)
Could someone shed some light on this love affair
Ans help to make me quite aware
Of what is meant by wicked thoughts
That have been sent
My memory is empty
(chorus)
Its too late now there's no time
the truth is locked in my mind
To wonder and look in my eyes
i was yours and you were mine
we were together all the time
we had sun and happy days
living together in our lazy ways
chorus :
drinking about my baby
drinking about her all the time
drinking about my baby
drinking about her all the time
i was so happy to see you
you're so clever to find
i don't want to leave you
you're my special someone
repeat chorus
(solo)
i can see just where i am
sitting in a lonely bar
one armed bandits,friends of yours
keep asking where you are
drinking and thinking and drinking woh oh
She walks like an angel walks
She talks like an angel talks
I first saw her down in market street
Wondered where'd she go
The girl went down down
To where I don't know
I just don't know
I just don't know
I just don't know
She stalks like a pussycat stalks
She stalks her predatory walk, yeh
I followed her down to another place
Stairs went down below
The girl went down, down
To a place I don't know
I just don't know
I just don't know
The girl girl
The girl goes down, down, down, down
She walks like an angel walks
And she talks like an angel talks, yeh
I first saw her down on market street
Wondered where she'd go
Yeh, I followed her down to another place
Stairs went down below
The girl girl
The girl goes down, down, down
She walks like an angel walks
She talks like an angel talks, yeh
Well she got eyes they are the hurting kind
They are black as coal
And they see down, down
Dead asleep the city dreams
Holding up its arms like limbs of steel
Mountains rise like mounds of sand
The boiling sea has swallowed up the land
(chorus)
On the eighth day, on the eighth day
Dancing devil knocking on my door
It has to grey that came to more
To raise the flag, to raise a tune
You know they'll be here soon
The eighth day, the eighth day
Hollow homes and gloomy streets
The people next door are looking for life's circus freaks
On the eighth day
Echoes of the midnight chime
The clock moves on but what a waste of time
(chorius)
The eighth day (x3)
Pure whie heat and blood of sands
Two clouds of crimson mists are swirling round and round
On the eighth day
Pools of fear and eyes that shine
The mirrors craked but I know they'll be mine oh mine
(chorus)

And you save the rest for Charlie's
mouth
Your head is north
Your feet is south
And you save the rest for
CHARLIE'S ENORMOUS MOUTH...
These are the hands of a demented circus clown
outside I'm laughing but inside I'm really wearing a frown
I see you laughing at me
but baby in my dreams
it's quite a different scene
Chasing you through the night with my hands around your neck
funny how everything seems in technicolour, yet
I find I'm laughing at you
and you are turning blue
Ha ha ha ha ha
Ha ha ha ha ha

i do !!!
i dream of pavements
of pavements cold and grey
cheerful,laughter on a lovely day
i dream of pavements
they wont go away
Come a rain storm put your rubbers on your feet,
Comes a snow storm you can get a little heat;
Comes love nothing can be done.
Comes a fire then you know just what to do,
Blow a tire You can buy another shoe,
Comes love nothing can be done.
Don't try hidin' 'cause there isn't any use,
You'll start slidin' when your heart turns on the juice.
Comes a headache you can lose it in a day,
Comes a toothache see the dentist right away;
Comes love nothing can be done!
Comes a heat wave you can hurry to the shore,
Comes a summons you can hide behind the door;
Comes love Nothing can be done.
Comes the measles you can quarantine the room,
Comes a mousie you can chase it with a broom;
Comes love nothing can be done.
That's all brother, If you've ever been in love,
That's all brother, you know what I'm speaking of!
Comes a nightmare you can always stay awake,
Comes depression you may get another break;
Comes love nothing can be done!
i say youre messing me around
and you say its gettin outa hand
i'm sick of the country
sick of the town
im sick of the future
it;s gettin me down
i say the future's gonna last
you say there's nothin in the past
i'm sick of the government
sick of the police
sick of the boredom
i want release
i can recall a strange event
i gave you nothing with my compliments
a discontent that efferents an emptiness
and nothingness that's heaven sent
(solo)
i say ,and you say
i say, and you say
i say
i now describe my country
as if to strangers
this train is full of songs
of local winners
and the wind surrounds the towers
and the flags they are blowing
and the bunting and the distance
stretches over our sound
and when he teases the children
he calls them orphans
and he cries for all the flowers
of the forest
in his head there is no reason
to be sad about the garden
but his heart bleeds very often
for things forgotten like little orphans
one,two,three oh she's so
messed up,she won't even ball
well she's so messed up she has no fun at all
she's a sad case of hit and run
i think that i would rather fuck her mum
oh well her face is such a mess
the best thing she can do is die
oh well i'd save her the trouble
but i bet you'd still call it a crime
oh would you know
so messed up,well she's so messed up
yeah she's so messed up,so messed up
so messed up (9 times)
oh she's so messed up she don't feel the pain
oh she's so messed up she'll always feel the same
oh she's so messed up she don't feel the pain
Some resurrection is no conclusion
Some poor pretention but no invention
In the night they become, just what they want
One imitation just like Roger Moore
Please tell us what they say
They tell us what to do
They're only fooling me and you
You know what I ain't
You know what I ain't
I ain't no gigolo aunt
You know what I ain't
You know what I ain't
I ain't no gigolo aunt
Ten secret agents, codes and deadly tricks
The prince of darkness from the horror flicks
The spiders web of intrigue a silent scream of dread
Oh where have they gone, lost in pity and despair
Please tell us what they say
They tell us what to do
They're only fooling me and you
You know what I ain't
You know what I ain't
I ain't no gigolo aunt
You know what I ain't
You know what I ain't
I ain't no gigolo aunt
She stands there on the stair
Nobody cares we know he's there
She's making coffee for two
Who does he fool
It's me and you
Please tell us what they say
They tell us what to do
They're only fooling me and you
You know what I ain't
You know what I ain't
austin @ Blake Sheiton
She left without leaving a number
Said she needed to clear her mind
He figured she'd gone back
to Austin
'Cause she talked about it
all the time
It was almost a year
Before she called him up
Three rings and
an answering machine
Is what she got
If you're calling 'bout the car,
I sold it
If this is Tuesday night, I'm bowling
If you got something to sell
You're wasting your time
I'm not buying
If it's anybody else
Wait for the tone
You know what to do
And P.S if this is Austin
I still love you
The telephone fell to the counter
She heard but she couldn't believe
What kind of man
would hang on that long
What kind of love that must be
She waited three days
And then she tried again
She didn't know what she'd say
But she heard three rings and then
If its friday night,
Im at the ball game
And first thing Saturday
If it don't rain
Im headed up to the lake
And I'll be gone all weekend long
But I'll call you back
When I get home
On Sunday afternoon
And P.S. if this is Austin
I still love you
This time she left her number
But not another word
Then she waited by the phone
On Sunday evening
And this is what he heard
If you're calling about my heart
It's still yours
I shoulda listened to it a little more
Then it wouldn't have
Taken me so long
To know where i belong
And by the way boy this is no machine you've talking to
Can't you tell this is Austin
And I still love you
Ik ben een idioot geweest
Liep rond met een blinddoek
Iedereen wist het
Iedereen zag het behalve ik
Mijn geest was onder invloed
Van slangegif
Ik ben verdwaald geweest
Was de leugen op het spoor
Stootte mijn hoofd
Tegen de muur van het labyrinth
Bleef me gedragen
Als een in de steek gelaten kind
Open de poorten
Nu ik hier weer ben
En jou vraag om mee te gaan
Open de poorten
Nu ik hier weer sta
Daarbinnen wacht een vrij bestaan
Open de poorten
Keer op keer heb ik gezondigd
Tegen elk gebod of wet
En nu ik weet hoe de hel er uit kan zien
Aan het einde van die doodlopende weg
De boodschap is helder als glas
De gevangene wordt president
De eersten zullen ooit de laatsten zijn
Als je gelooft
Wordt droom uiteindelijk werkelijkheid
Open de poorten
Nu ik hier weer sta
En jou vraag om mee te gaan
Open de poorten
Nu ik hier weer ben
Daarbinnen wacht een vrij bestaan
Open de poorten
Open de poorten
Nu ik hier weer ben
En jou vraag om mee te gaan
Open de poorten
Nu ik hier weer sta
Daarbinnen wacht een vrij bestaan
Open de poorten
Nu ik hier weer ben
Nu ik hier weer sta
Nu ik hier weer ben
Open de poorten
Open de poorten
On a misbegotten, moonless night
I stumbled in my door
Disgusted with my circumstance
Soaked to every pore
When floating from my bedroom
Came a moaning and a sigh
We are young we can break
Watch us fall
We can take some train
Down to the sea
We are glass, we are glass
We are real you can touch
Just for now
And then say
'Hey you, which way is down'
We are glass, we are glass
We are strong we run though
We have time
And to you I'm just
One of those boys
We are glass, we are glass
We are cold
We're not supposed to cry
But it's all just a thought
So here am I
We are glass, we are glass
They run fast
Impressions of the floors inviting
Stay with me, stay with me
They run past
With telephones they scream
Well would you turn all this down
Turn all this down
You are replaced you are you
And our dreams are real
And dreams are all we need
We are glass, we are glass
We slip down
And old eyes don't cry for me
Cause I doubt I'm and I doubt you
And never never going to doubt
We are glass, we are glass
They run fast
Impressions of the floors inviting
Stay with me, stay with me
They run past
With telephones they scream
Well would you turn all this down
Turn all this down
Can you tell what's on my mind
She's with him it's driving me wild
I'd like to hit him on the head until he's dead
The sight of blood is such a high
Ooooohhhh
He gives me head
We made it on a Ballroom Blitz
I took his arms and kissed his lips
He looked at me with such a smile my face turned red
We booked a room into the Ritz
Ooooohhhh
He gives me head
Jet boy jet girl
I'm gonna take you 'round the world
Jet boy I'm gonna make you penetrate
I'm gonna make you be a girl
Ooooohhhh
Jet boy jet girl
I know I'm only just fifteen
I like to kick I like to scream
And even if I had a kick or two in bed with him
You know it's just a dream
Ooooohhhh
He gives me head
Jet boy jet girl
I'm gonna take you 'round the world
Jet boy I'm gonna make you penetrate
I'm gonna make you be a girl
Ooooohhhh
Jet boy jet girl
The other day what a suprise
I saw him with some other guys
Got leave his dress off with a girl around his neck
I could have cried with both my eyes
Ooooohhhh
He gives me head
And if and when I make it though
Or if my brains black and blue
And when the world trusts you to forget all that
You know I'll still remember you
Ooooohhhh
You gave me head
Jet boy jet girl
I'm gonna take you 'round the world
Jet boy I'm gonna make you penetrate
I'm gonna make you be a girl
Ooooohhhh
Dear mother how I will write this line
When I know I'm counting time
I'm tired and I'm scared
I'm waiting and death's my friend
To say in God we trust not for this
Oh the death and glory boys not for this
Dear beloved try to write to you
Through the senseless deaths of a million troops
I'm waiting my time is near
As my tears wash away my years
To say in God we trust not for this
Oh the death and glory boys not for this
Where I walk where I see
The haunting flares where my friends bleed
I see the face of the enemy
Of a man or boy who is just like me
Now you're not there
All the tears we bled
Cut through like winters rain
Can't you feel the pain
And if I could ever sleep again
I know till the end of time I'd hear
Their screams of pain
Dulce dulce decorum
Dulce dulce decorum
Dulce
Estoy hablando de una perra
una perra que conoc
Melody Lee, a broken mind and a broken dream
I bust the speed to change your heart
Your life was cruel they called it art
Melody Lee, you need a mirror to set you free
It won't be kinda cheap tomorrow
If you hide any sorrow
Melody Lee, you gotta find your secret enemy
You're on the road with nowhere to go
If you die someone to know
Forget your heart, you need not stay
When it happened
Something snapped inside
Made me want to hide
All alone on my own
All alone on my own
I stood up on the stand
With my eyes shut tight
Didn't want to see anybody
Feeling happy, having a good time
Now, hey, doing alright, doing alright
Doing alright, doing alright
Danced hard into the dancing crowd
Felt like screaming out loud
I saw you standing there
I saw your long, saw your long hair
Opened up my eyes, baby
You made me realize all I want to do now
All I want to do now, girl
Is look at you, looking at you, baby
Look at you, looking at you, baby
Yeah, hey
Danced hard into the dancing crowd
I felt like screaming out loud
All I wanna do, all I wanna do
All I want to do
Is look at you, looking at you, baby
Look at you, looking at you, baby
Looking at you, looking at you
Looking at you, baby
Theres not a word of truth in anything that I say
I don't really want to listen till they go away
I haven't finished and I never cry
If you ask me why, I just lie
(chorus)
I'm a liar, liar, I never tell the truth (x2)
I tell you how to feel and why it is
And when and or if you don't want to give
I love spending hours watching television
I saw a dance, lights, room and a fall and your bright red politician
(chorus)
I smoked your last cigarette I say that someone else did
I send your mum to the vet and find out your sisters brilliant
You ask me why, I just lie
I'm a liar, liar
I'm gonna be the biggest liar in the world
I'll be so good you'll believe every word
I could even make you believe Adolf Hitler
Send him to Azurre for the winter
i know you're cold but i've seen it before
i'd take a chance on the wine
your starched white lips introvenous she drips
in fear of turning blind
hair to grey and some guys say
shows you're ,shows you're growing old
do it again,i can't explain
the light sure seems cold
feel the pain it leaves no stain
feel the pain the name of the game
drop some blues,time to choose
why your heart is st- st - stabbing
bloody eyes can't describe
the nature of your ha ha hacking
back to front,the blade tastes blunt
in the safety of your bedroom
no desire to touch the fire
there's just a,just a sad obsession
feel the pain,it leaves no stain,leaves no stain
feel the pain,the name of the game
feel the pain,it leaves no stain ....stain
feel the pain,the name of the game
i just hit the ground ,boy have i arrived
tell the dinosaurs,they just wont survive
so i fell,and you just laughed
you think that i canr satnd
to see me trip this way
you think i'm second hand
i have seen it all,she's the only one
she belongs to me,i'm the lonely one
counting sheep and swatting flies
you think there's no more left
talk is cheap,how many lies
sustain a single breath ?
adam chance and zorro
take them with a pinch of salt
sad about tomorrow
sorry,but it's not my fault
while they were shoting at the moon
somebody croaked and no-one heard
whats a sin or two in the history of the world
some one said to me "why d'ya play so loud?"
what d' you want from me
you corrupt the crowd
miles of print you'd think we'd thought of
nothing else
there's more important things than ink and
decibels
leave it to tomorrow
corporal clott and stalingrad
they're the ones to follow
theyre the ones,that make me glad
no-one alive and no-one left
nobody cares or aint you heard
looks like i'll take my dying breath
in the history of the world
well i'm craving for a cigarette
hey gimme a light
feeling kinda thirsty
gimme somethin' that bites
sure been hangin' round here
for much too long
all you crazy people waitin' for my song
i said
(chorus)
well here i a-am
just another one night stand
anyway i don't know why i'm sad.........
for my fan club
waitin' for my autograph
well you must be mad
standing in the pissing rain
must be a drag
but if that's what you wanna do
i won't say no
and if you wanna see more of me
see me after the show
i said
(repeat chorus)
(solo bit)
you send me pretty flowers
while i'm slashin' my wrists
i'd read those little letters
through my smashed out mists
the dream i shock you
is my nightmare
i'm the freak that's on display
so stand and stare
i said
i get a calling time of day
beat a lot,a lot of crime away
there's nothing baby i can't take
with that crime,i'm gonna make your body ache
chorus :-
it's no kind of big deal
no carnegie steal
i feel like no heel
well i'm born,i said i'm born
yeah i'm born,i'm born to kill
said i'm born,yeah i'm born
no i'm born,i'm born to kill
jet along and jive my back
don't tread on my toes and don't skid on my back
chedden bone chops are real fine fine fine
well take a chance honey,you can be mine
(repeat chorus)
born to kill,born to kill
sittin' in the morning sun
I'll be sittin' when the evenin' come
watchin' the ships roll in
then I watch'em roll away again
I'm sittin' on the dock of the bay
watchin' the tide roll away
sittin' on the dock of the bay
wastin' time
I left my home in dalmatia
headed for the frisco bay
I have nothing to live for
look like nothing gonna came my way
so I'm just gonna sit on the dock of the bay
watchi' the tide roll away
sittin' on the dock of the bay
wastin' time
look like nothing gonna change
ev'rything still remains the same
I can't do what eight people tell me to do
so I guess I'll remain the same
sittin' here restin' my bones
and this loneliness won't leave me alone
ten thousand miles I roam
just to make this dock my home
now I'm just gonna sit at the dock of the boy
watchin' the thide roll away
sittin' on the dock of the boy
wastin' time
Yeah I said it's alright
I won't forget
All the times
I waited patiently for you
As you do just what you choose to do
And I will be alone again tonight my dear
Yeh I heard a funny thing
Somebody said to me
That you could be in love
With almost anyone
You think people are the greatest fun
And I will be alone again tonight for you
Hey I said its alright
You know I won't forget
All the times
I waited patiently for you
Now, you do just what
You choose to do
oh yeah you're all cracked up fury
all get no jury to defend you
you tried but you couldn't try
when they see you
you want me to hang around
with you always
but you lie and die
when all you ever give me is disgrace
that's the way down
that's the way down
that's sedation
that's sedation
or one of the two
or one of the two
with our saturation eyes
you think you can disguise all those meat things
but can you grovel in the dust
with masochistic lust and make the song sing
oh yeah you're all cravked up fury
all get no jury to defend you
you tried but you couldn't cry
when they see you
that's the way down
that's the way down
that's sedation
that's sedation
or one of the two
or one of the two
oh yeah you're all cracked up fury
all get no jury to defend you
you tried but you couldn't cry
when they see you
you want me to hang around
with you always
but you lie and die
when all you ever give me is disgrace
that's the way down
that's the way down
that's sedation
that's sedation
or one of the two
or one of the two
one of the two
or one of the two
can you taste the grit between your teeth
the heat of the lights
the crack of the whip
the snapping sound of someones nerves
if you pay you get
what you deserve
we're coming up from the deep
the lizard sheds it's skin
night obliterates the day
and all the fun begins
shadow boxing with yourself
just seems to get you nowhere
you dont want to cheat
when playing solitaire
the faces come alive
try and focus and be one
never let it be said that
the jester comes undone
a reckless gambling pace
with time enough to borrow
time enough to measure
all of our tomorrows
curtain call and lights grow dim
tragedy, love all lie within
each player takes his chance to play
lives to fight another day
we're coming up from the deep
the lizard sheds its skin
night obliterates the day
and all the fun begins
shadow boxing with yourself
just seems to get you nowhere
you dont want to cheat
when playing solitaire
curtain call and lights grow dim
tragedy ,love all lie within
each player takes his chance to play
and lives to fight another day
what boundaries to cross
what chances for the taking
stepping in the angels way
not to be forsaken
curtain call and lights go dim
tragedy,love all lie within
each player takes his chance to play
and lives to fight
lives to fight
another day
another day
another day
no more will i roam
my childish dreams i'll soon outgrow
but here we stand
in our own theatreland
curtain call
about to fall
we're coming up from the deep
the lizard sheds its skin
night obliterates the day
and all the fun begins
shadow boxing with yourself just
seems to get you nowhere
you dont want to cheat
when playing solitaire
curtain call and lights grow dim
tragedy , love all lie within
each player takes his chance
to play and lives to fight
another day
we're coming up from the deep
the lizard sheds its skin
the night obliterates the day
and all the fun begins
shadow boxing with yourself
just seems to get you nowhere
you dont want to cheat
when playing solitaire
curtain call and lights grow dim
tragedy,love all lie within
each player takes his chance to play
and lives to fight,lives to fight ,another day
another day
Band down, arms out, who goes there
We have journeyed far from here
I was a pigeon in Leicester Square
(chorus)
This is daddy, hope you both are well
Please come see me in the citadel
In the streets of many wars
Hear the panzers come and call
You can hear their numbers called
(chorus)
Screaming people fly so fast
You can drive in metal cars
In their words of steel and glass
From the moment I wake up
Before I put on my makeup
I say a little prayer for you..
While combing my hair now
And wond'ring what dress to wear now
I say a little prayer for you...
[Chorus:]
Forever, and ever, you'll stay in my heart, and I'll love you
Forever, and ever, we never will part, oh I love you
Together, forever, that's how it must be
Living without you
Would only mean heartbreak for me...
I run for the bus dear, while riding I think of us dear,
I say a little prayer for you
At work I just take time, and all through my coffee break time
I say a little prayer for you...
[Chorus]
Forever, and ever, you'll stay in my heart, and I'll love you
Forever, and ever, we never will part, oh I love you
Together, forever, that's how it must be
Living without you
Would only mean heartbreak for me...
My darling believe me
For me there is no one but you
Please love me too
(answer his prayer)
And Im in love with you
(answer his prayer)
Answer my prayer baby
(answer his prayer)
[Chorus]
Forever, and ever, you'll stay in my heart, and I'll love you
Forever, and ever, we never will part, oh I love you
Together, forever, that's how it must be
Living without you
Would only mean heartbreak for me...
Torture me
I'm just an animal you see
I'm the slap for your lap
Not upset
You know pets don't really feel
Torture me
Why don't you carve my body up
Throw me into a pot
Make it hot
And you'll have a lovely meal
Torture me
'Cause you're the beauty I'm the beast
For your feast
Weddings, barmisphahs and all
Torture me
Take my skin and eat my flesh
'Cause it's fresh
Boil or roast'll be a ball
And if I can suffer more
And if I can suffer more
I'll improve your life for sure
And if I can suffer more
And if I can suffer more
I had a dream oh was it true
I saw the sun set low on you
In a blood-red suns final rays
With after night solo shadow plays
Into the world we started to run
Like bullets from a gun
With passion and desire
Like two burning balls of fire
And there is surely nothing else
The gods have gotta keep on laughing
Laughing(x2)
If fools wanna dance let the music play
So much unsung so much so say
Like velvet claws the night unfolds
Its secret bare, its story told
I had a friend, heaven and hell
His life was short he lived it well
The limits here, the time is now
I'd like to lead youbetter how
And there is surely nothing else
The gods have gotta keep on laughing
Laughing(x8)
And I don't want no feeling blue
Cos I been loving too
(x2)
Gotta move, gotta get out
Gotta leave this place, gotta find some place
Some other place, some brand new place
Some place where each face that I see
Won't be staring back at me
Telling me what to be and how to be it
Some place where I can just be me
Gotta move, got to get out
Gotta leave this town, gotta find some town
Some big new town, some bright new town
Some new town with new places, new lives
And most of all some new faces
Gotta find a man, a new man
A man who won't worry 'bout where I go
A man who wont ask how I learned what I know
A man who will know that you've gotta be free
A man who will know when to just let me be
Gotta move, gotta get out
Gotta change my life, gotta find my life
I'll find me a place in some new town and baby
And when I find me that new place, then maybe ours,
Gotta leave this town
Gotta leave this place
Gotta find a new man...
Gotta move!
she wanders alone through the night
a child with eyes burning bright
she extends her arms for an embrace a tiny smile
her ruby lips on her doll- like face
the danger's a mystery here
as she invites you to hold her near
her mirrored image could not be linked to
a woman's mind,so sharp and so distinct
like a swimmer in a secret sea
undecayed for all eternity
claudia,better stay away from claudia
the silkiness of her lips
as she bends low to kiss
a tiny seductress in ringlets and pearls you reel
in madness as the whole world about you whirls
like the tinkle of a small silver bell
her voice will put you under her spell
a crushed crysanthemum in her hand a beautiful doll of death
she'll take your dying breath
won't you tell me the reason why
he goes out , almost every night?
he never goes too far,he's always
the one who's got it right
chorus
he's got charm
he's got style
he's got a dozen girls
tell me why,i don't know why
he's got a dozen girls
now he's always the one with all the hooks
when it comes to making it with you
now i would be there in his place if only
i knew what it is i had to do
repeat chorus twice
Being afraid can be okay, if you're willing to let things go
If you'd lay me to die and try to learn what you don't know
I don't know why I drive behind the wheel
Sun's the sky, and I was
On the road to salinas
Down the road I thought could free us
Ordinary dreams would go, and I would always get back home
Took the time inside to find the boy inside my brain
Someone waited out on him and was trying to get away
I don't know why I feel the way I feel
Sun's in the sky, and I was
On the road to salinas
Down the road I thought could free us
Ordinary dreams would go, and I would always get back home
See myself in someone else, and I just don't know why
When I lay my head to sleep I lay awake and cry
I don't know why I drive behind the wheel
Sun's in the sky, and I was
On the road to salinas
Down the road I thought could free us
Ordinary dreams would go, and I would always get back home
life goes on and on and on
if you think it's al gone wrong
go on and on and on
life's a con a con a con
if you think you can't go on
go on and on and on
chorus :
but always remember,
this is the happiest day of your life
( repeat first verse, then : )
and as the years they move along
i see it now, there's something wrong
'cos life is for always
take your time
who cares what fools say
i don't mind
'cos this is my day
i'll live it my way
today, there's just today
twilight comes and the mood's complete
gonna hit the street grab some of that night time beat
my heart is beat beat beating ,like a drum
the night is in my veins we're gonna,have some fun tonight
chorus :
light the fuse i must ignite
i'm gonna set the world alight
light the fuse i must ignite
ii'm gonna set the world alight
i wanna see you burn
i killed the cigarette, i killed the light
i'm killin' time the heat kills me on a hot summer night
i'm gonna dream a life,live a dream
hell for leather in my scheme of things tonight
you got your plastic cards but you can't create
you got your open bars but you can't relate
grinning at your mirror, ugly as your smile
you won't fool anybody not even for a while
(chorus)
You Know(x4)
can't stop thinking of you baby of all the ways you go on
don't try to tell me baby all your past it has gone
you know we need you honey like i need a law
your time is running out i guess we really oughtta go
don't you ask me to come out
when the sun does shine
beter stay here with curtains drawn
in darkness you'll be mine
(chorus)
let's wait for the blackout
the light is too bright
let's wait for the blackout
wait for the night
well welcome to my basement flat
no windows to see through
with darkness closing in my friend
we both know what to do
repeat chorus
come lay with me upon the earth
that keeps us both alive
no living thing has lasted here
yet we shall both survive
repeat chorus
in darkness there is no sin
light only brings the fear
nothing to corrupt the eyes
there is no vision here
at first you may find it strange
but do not go away
the darkness holds the power
that you won't find in the day
there is no vision here
i say hello don't think that i don't know you're listening to me
but please don't bother me,
don't bother me
you bought this thing so i would sing about that awful nuclear thing
i hope won't bother me
won't bother me
your rolling stones and pop star clones don't even want to hear their moans
i say don't bother me
don't bother me
those men of steel i really feel are quite extremely unreal
i wish they'd all just fade away
so here am i under the sky can i ask you
without a lie to please don't bother me
don't bother me
i'm in a hole just like a mole
don't give a toss,lady in her mink stole
don't bother me
don't bother me
the people change they rearrange but stay the same
it's awfully strange
but they don't bother me
don't bother me
until the day their troubles stray on to my patch
like tony hatch's 'crossroads' theme
please go away
go away
Spoken: Let's try this

(chorus)

REPEAT CHORUS
Its no good for you kids
being told what to do
theres a lot of kicks for you
if you find something new
you don't have to listen
to what your parents say
they don't understand us
their laws we don't obey
you can wear what you want
and there ain't no uniform
go where you want to go
don't stay at home
Yeah
Yeah
Sounds made of seeds
Of Earth's delight
Some freaked out things that
Screamed inside,
The first sound that to be heard
About the lip that wash
In your mouth
Things never change
Just wash it away
Spark grabs your soul
Gotta let it go
Let it go
Let it go
Let it go
That weird friend will say to me
Get out of my face
You lets of leave
Cook me breakfast, have a shave
As if it gets me through the day
Crap never stains
Just sit through that pain
I'll never know
Gotta let it go
Let it go
Let it go
Let it go
Yeah now
Shit music, Upon a record
Shit music, Yeah
Shit music, Upon a record
Shit music, Upon, upon a record
Yeah
Crash my head into a wall
I've seen you try I've seen you stall
Break my scars into your eyes
Blinded by the times that were mine
Oh well it seems
That I've fucked up your dreams
Just let me say
You gotta let it go
Let it go
Let it go
Let it go Yeah.
lying in a wiped out park
with silver screams from the dark
theres no direction
a steel erection to feel
can you swallow the mist from this space
suffer with the gun on your face
well you can't imagine
the things that could happen this way
(chorus)
theres no reason to cry
anyway you won't get no reply
cos you're alone but i love you
but not me
does your baby face look so sad
but its the biggest thrill you've ever had
well its funny to think of the fun
you lig with this game
so you wanna be out of your mind
having a real good time but don't bother to choose
between calling this good or bad
(chorus)
(1st verse)
(lyrics Scabies, music Captain)
I'll be the ticket if you're my collector
I've got the fare if you're my inspector
I'll be the luggage, if you'll be the porter
I'll be the parcel if you'll be my sorter
(chorus)
Just for you here's a love song
Just for you here's a love song
And it makes me glad to say
It's been a lovely day
And it's okay
I'll be the mail, you'll be the guard
I'll be the ink on your season ticket card
I'll be the rubbish, you'll be the bin
I'll be the paint on the sign if you'll be the tin
(chorus)
(chorus)
Its Okay
Grimly fiendish plays the game that never plays
Sing out loud but never prayed
Grimly fiendish wears a coat thats black and long
He doesn't know that it's all wrong
Simply fiendish, a child caught in a grown up world
No lies convince the court
Once a week I could be found on the faces all the frowns
Hide and seek, tried so hard to find that crime could pay
Just for today
(chorus)
Bad bad bad boy (x8)
Let me get the story straight
You never gave me a break
It's a case of give and take
You didn't make me good you just painted me green
You made me part of your forgotten dream
Grimly fiendish, we'll send you just where you belong
Where the children can't be found
(chorus) (x2)
Hide and seek, tried so hard and just to find that crime could pay
Just for today
Memories have only open space to give
And as I think to the past
There's nothing left to see
So future man open your arms to me
Let me have the words as the moon speaks to the sea
Yeah
If you can't sleep tonight
And if a fever grips you tight
Theres a place we can explore
Open wide the door...
(chorus)
We may be the haunted men
But we will hold our heads up high
When we're walking down the street of dreams
The dead beats and the dispossesed
The seekers of unlikeliness
The beauty walk on and on
With the beast tomight
(chorus)
Down the street of dreams
We walk down the street of dreams
A thousand doorways open there
A thousand voices sweet and clear
Emotions felt with a passion
Never felt before
(chorus)
When you walk down the street of dreams
Don't smoke, don't fight, don't light no cigarettes,
Or else you'll wind up in the can!
No jokes, no rights, sit tight, don't fool around,
You are a guest of Uncle Sam!
Stand up, look right, don't slouch, and stand at ease,
Allow no sex above the knees!
When I snap, you jump into the master plan,
I'll be damned!
Well, I'll be damned...
I'll be damned if I drink or smoke!
Damned if I steal your joke!
I'll be damned if I go for broke!
Damned if I do, damned if I don't!
Wuh!
Don't talk, don't fool, don't try to mess around,
I'll make a monkey outta you!
You sign your name right on the dotted line,
Boy, I'll be damned!
I'll be damned if I drink or smoke!
Damned if I steal your joke!
I'll be damned if I go for broke!
Damned if I do and damned if I don't!
Yuh!
SOLO
Come on!
I'll be damned if I drink or smoke!
Damned if I steal your joke!
I'll be damned if I go for broke!
I'm damned if I do and damned if I don't!
I'll be damned if I drink or smoke!
Damned if I steal your joke!
I'll be damned if I go for broke!
I'm damned if I do and damned if I don't!
I'll be damned!
I'll be damned!
I'll be damned!
I'll be damned! I'll be damned!
When I awoke this morning there was light all around the place
Get to the bathroom mirror can that sight really be my face
Go downstairs, the sunshine glares across the welcome mat
Slippers on must get along to where the action's at
And so the day breaks over motley cat and me
I read the Sunday paper and have a nice cup of tea
And so into the kitchen wondering, what I did last night
And open up the corn flakes that they says nutra sheds delight
Rummage in the sink to find a plate, it's almost clean
I think this is the worst state that the kitchen's ever been
And so the day breaks over motley cat and me
I read the Sunday paper and have a nice cup of tea
There's nothing wrong
And the kettle's on
I think I'll have a cup of tea
And it's OK
It's a lovely day
Is she really going out with him?
I got a feelin' inside of me
It's kinda strange like a stormy sea
I don't know why, I don't know why
I guess these things have gotta be
I gotta new rose, I got her good
Guess I knew that I always would
I can't stop to mess around
I got a brand new rose in town
See the sun, see the sun it shines
Don't get too close or it'll burn your eyes
Don't you run away that way
You can come back another day
(repeat chorus)
I never thought this could happen to me
I feel so strange, so why should it be
I don't deserve somebody this great
I'd better go or it'll be too late, yeah
I got a feelin' inside of me
It's kinda strange like a stormy sea
I don't know why, I don't know why
I guess these things have gotta be
I got a new rose, I got her good
Guess I knew that I always would
I can't stop to mess around
I got a brand new rose in town!
At 7am on a brand new day
I'm gonna start it in the perfect way
Put the greatest record on
I kick the dog, I kick the cat
Insult my mum insult my dad
Sing out loud and sing along
(chorus)
We say noise is for heroes (heroes)
Leave the music for zeroes (zeroes)
Noise Noise Noise is for heroes (heroes)
Oh yeah
I'm down the pub and the time is one
Hit the jukebox for my favourite song
Gonna turn it up too loud
Have a couple of games of pool
Argue with a drunken fool
Have a beer with the usual crowd
(chorus)
Its noise that makes the world go round
I can't survive without that sound
The sound torments me
Its 8 o'clock down the church hall
I've enough amplifiers 6 feet tall
Gonna turn them up full blast
The vicar waves his arms and looks absurd
The noise drowns out his godly words
And he can't get out too fast
(chorus)
Flickering, the shadows fall across my eyes
Across the walls
Time engulfs me once more
I'm in the place and I'm enthralled
This mists that creep, the hound that howls
The lightning illuminates the towers
Is it only I can see
The beauty of the beast?
(Your magic never ceased)
With quickening pulse what lies behind the door
A curious step retreats once more
The creature with a darkened soul
A story of the Damned unfolds
Bela, Boris, Basil, Lon, Lorre, Vincent, now all gone
Looming pallid on the screen
The beauty of the beast
Your magic never ceased
And now though a curtain has been drawn
It's been getting so hard living with the things you do
to me
My dreams are getting so strange I'd like to tell you
everything I see
I see a man at the back as a matter of fact his eyes
are as red as the sun
And a girl in the corner let no one ignore her 'cause
she thinks she's the passionate one
Oh yeah, it was like lightning, everybody was
frightening
And the music was soothing and they all started
grooving
Yeah, yeah Yeah, yeah, yeah
And the man at the back said: Everyone attack and it
turned into a ballroom blitz
And the girl in the corner said: Boy I wanna warn you;
and it turned into a ballroom blitz
Ballroom blitz
I'm reaching out for something touching nothing's all I
ever do
I softly call you over when you appear there's nothing
left of you
Now the man at the back is ready to crack as he raises
his hands to the sky
And the girl in the corner is everyone's moaner she
could kill you with a wink of her eye
Oh yeah, it was electric, so frightfully hectic
And the band started leaping, 'cause they all stopped
breathing
Yeah, yeah Yeah, yeah, yeah
Oh yeah it was like lightning,
Everybody was frightening and the music was soothing
And they all started grooving
Yeah, yeah Yeah, yeah, yeah
It's, it's a ballroom blitz
bad time

I tear into my clothes
Sacrifice my soul for anything, anything
I gotta clear this town
No sense in hanging around
Cause anything anything anything
Is better than this
Where can the action be
To fill this need in me
Cause anything anything anything
Is better than this
I am the wicked boy
Who takes your favourute toy
Or anything anything
You show me someone
Who doesn't want no fun
Or anything anything anything
Is better than
I could never be
What you need in me anything
I could never be
What you see in me anything
I can take alot
I'll just take a shot at anything
What you got
I'll make my girl scream
I'll be her love machine anywhere
Anyway
She only wants my tricks
But we do have our kicks
At anything anything
Is better than this
I'm out of control
Sacrifice my soul for
Anything anything anything
Is better than this
I could never be
What you see in me anything
I could never be
I'm going back to church tonight
Take me back when I was eight
But I don't mean to pray
I'm gonna nick the collection plate
I've got nothing against church
Or any people who go there and show there
Plain ignorant and don't understand
A congregation at weekends won't change their behaviour
So many people are weak enough
To have to seek answers from pedlars of hope
I should know I used to go there myself
That's the day I became antipope
There's gonna be some fun tonight
Spreading news around the town
That the vicars are transvestites
With a fetish for robes and gowns
[chorus]
Religion doesn't mean a thing
Its just another way of being right wing
I think sex films are okay
I don't dig that pope no way
I can take all of your dreams
Transform the way you feel
Make life a little easier
For you to face your fears
As the evening starts to crawl
Dark shadows on the walls
Are dancing and inviting you
To come and taste it all
If you want to take a chance
Seduction's in a glass
Taking you to another place
Come taste this lunacy
Be blinded by the green faerie
Creeping out of your glass
Into your mind
Then you can really see
I can take all of your fears
Transform the way you feel
Welcome to the spirit world
Where all your dreams are real
If you want to take a chance
Seduction's in a glass
Taking you to another place
As the evening starts to crawl
Dark shadows on the walls
Are dancing and inviting you
To come and taste it all
I can take all of your fears
Transform the way you feel
Welcome to the spirit world
Where all your dreams are real
If you want to take a chance
Seduction's in a glass
Taking you to another place
And now our trip to wonderland
Has finally come to an end
And if you're not completely mad...
Nice house and a wall around your land
Big mall and your pet designer brand
Chance to get your face on some real TV
Some petrol and a car so you can feel free, free, free
We'll make it, oh
A nation fit for heroes,
The evidence is all overdue
Ovation for the Neros
Who fiddle while the world's burning down
One view with a single blaring headline
One man, an agenda and a deadline - looming
But never mind the things that the papers say
The golden eagle sings and they go away, way, way
They call it, oh
A nation fit for heroes
The evidence is all overdue
This zombie land for zeros
From cradle to the grave, and beyond
Oh, a nation fit for heroes
The evidence is all overdue
Ovation for the Neros
Who fiddle while the world's burning
Oh, a nation fit for heroes
The evidence is all overdue
This zombie land for zeros
the organ plays til midnight on maldine square tonight
the dancers dance with a fever and delight
his brow is tense but ,his hands never shake
revenge has come sweetly
and death is his mate
the organ plays til midnight
note perfect like clockwork
perfect,precise and a slave
to the masters demands
two souls locked together for all eternity
soon to be one our work is nearly over
but who is the victim
and who is the innocent
the organ plays til midnight
note perfect like clockwork
perfect,precise and a slave

Well I'm just a poor guy
Been thrown out on the street
My hair's a mess and my clothes
Well they sure ain't neat
Yeah listen to my warning
Yeah listen to me now
Those short changed mean people
You're feeble and fat

In the bleeding rain
Waiting for the 68

It's been long time since I stepped outside
Party's only just begun
Takes more than a dream to make me want to scream well
Gonna have me some fun
No way out of this city full of doubt it makes
Living seem like a sin
I'd better kick some ass
Get out real fast
I might as well give in
Sick of being sick
Sick of being sick
Sick of being sick
Sick of being sick
Been a long time since I stepped outside
Party's only just begun
Takes more than a dream to make me want to scream well
Gonna have me some fun
No way out of this city full of doubt it makes
Living seem like a sin
I'd better kick some ass
Get out real fast
I might as well give in
Sick of being sick
Sick of being sick
Sick of being sick
Sick of being sick
Sick of being sick
Sick of being sick
Sick of being sick (you wanna see me ill?)
Every time I talk to you
It's plain to see it's always indecision
Plain as all the faces that you know
Always turn their back on you
And every time you open
Up your mouth - shut it
You're playing around with my heart
Leaving me opened up and bleeding
You laugh at me but it's plain to see
I'm not going to take this thing
You're laying down on me
Why don't you open your mind
Or, shut it - shut it, shut it
Why don't you just shut it!
Every time I talk to you
It's plain to see it's always indecision
Plain as all the faces that you know
Always turn their back on you
And every time you open
Up your mouth - shut it, shut it, shut it
Shut it!
Why don't you just shut it!
Every time you open
When the storm is raging you're beginning to lose your mind
Your head's exploding and you never can look behind
And it's your very last wish to never lose control
Dogs on your heels and they just won't let you go
You're a running man
You just can't stand
You're a running man
You just can't plan
Yeah, you're a running man
Such a running man
Running man
When you're caught on a hook and killing doesn't seem such a crime
Just answer this question if you ever do have the time
In this grand illusion you know life can be so cruel
It eats you up just to leave you like a mindless fool
You're a running man
You just can't stand
Running man
You know you just can't plan
Running man
You're such a running man
Running man
You're a running man
You just can't stand
Yeah, you're a running man
You just can't plan
When you're a running man
Such a running man
Running man
Running man
Running man
Yeah, running man
Running man
You're a running man
Running, running, running man
The autumn leaves burning red
With the last light of the sun
The day is almost over
The day is almost done
Perhaps tonight I'll sit and watch
The stars come out
Their liquid hazy light
Holding time still
Bringing old memories to life
i hear cries and whispers in the night
but i know that i was in the right
hear footsteps echo behind me as i walk
people listening when i talk
chorus :
no room for error no room for mistakes
no time for friends it's for your own sake
it's for your own sake
go to the window and what do i see ?
killers face looking at me
go to the window and what do i see ?
no room for feelings
careless talk costs lives
cold as the cold war front
the red star life
i see faces when there's no-one there
memories that,i don't need to share
repeat chorus
go to the window,what do i see
go to the window
the killer is me
it's meeeeeeeee
it's meeeeeeeee
(whispers :)
Well there's a place not on this earth
Where you can sell your soul for what it's worth
Laughing so loud fit to burst
'Cause you're a bargain hunter in the twilight zone
You don't look no fool to me
You'd live in hell for free
You're not of this earth
You're an evil-heart
You're a liar, you're a cheat, you're a snake in the grass
Cast in gold and top of the class
You wear the truth like a disease
There's no hole deep enough for you to please
You don't look no fool to me
You'd live in hell for free
You're not of this earth
You're an evil-heart
You're no good it's understood
Or you'd never leave the ones you love to bleed
You were born in fire, been a liar
You've lived a life of charm with such ease
You don't look no fool to me
You'd live in hell for free
You're not of this earth
You're an evil-heart
Evil, evil, evil, evil
Fear grips your heart and you fight with all your might
Into the distant light you keep your vision bright
And the torch of love is a burning flame
It burns so bright it consumes all pain
And while your hand, your head to prey
Fate deals a hand that we all must play
(chorus)
And when the stars go out
The skies have turned to grey
I'm gonna walk on out
Into a brand new day
Schemes and dreams and just a little more
To keep the wolf howling outside your door
And every night, every day
I think I'll go go go and say
That I have to win, I have to try
I have to hold my head up high
(chorus)
(repeat last 4 lines verse 1)
There's a turkey in your house get him out
Get the turkey out
Get him out of the house
Get him out
There's a turkey in the house get him out
Get the turkey out
Get him out of the house
Get him out
Get turkey out of the house
Get turkey out of the house get him out
Get the turkey out get him out
There's a rhino in the room get him out
Get him out of the room
Get the rhino out
Get him out
There's a rhino in the room get him out
Get him out of the room
Get the rhino out
Get him out
Get rhino out of the room
Get rhino out of the room get him out
Get the rhino out get him out Get turkey out of the house
Get turkey out of the house get him out
Get the turkey out get him out
Happy Talkin Captains' tutu's too tight
Means there'll be no more snookering you tonight
P just looks bemused to be on foreign Shores -
AH HA There ain't no Sanity Clause [x4]
[Chorus]
Vanians got a visit from a guy named Drac
Says he's from the bloodbank wants his 10 pints back
Singers rather sickly when it rains it pours -
Oh no, there ain't no Sanity Clause [x4]
[Chorus]
Did you expect that I would believe
the tale you told last Xmas eve
About the man that man is fat and round
Delivers gifts without a sound
[Solo]
[Chorus]
Monty Oxy Moron's Mozart on natural gas
Always playing symphonies out of his ass
Pinch's about to get tied up with Las Vegas laws,
Oh No, there ain't no Sanity Clause
High above as in the clouds
They swing so slowly
To the wire showing no fear
They step so boldly
Gently faster
Building in momentum
Until success or disaster
Befalls the master
O the tightrope walk
The dizzyingheights
The sound of your hearts
Like thunder
Measure your step
Or all your plans
May fall asunder
Now gently faster
Building in momentum
Until success or disaster
Befalls the master
Of the tightrope walk
The safety net is your psyche
The wire though imaginary
Yes its very real
So tread with care
On the tightrope walk
The tightrope walk
The tightrope walk
Black night
All still
Stealth calls
Cold kill
Night gloves
Black gown
Job done
Quit town
We're just having some fun
Messing round with a gun
Don't get excited
I'm just killing some time
It's a fantasy crime
And I'm living it again
Cops swarm
The scene
Detective
Is keen
Autopsy
The clue
Strobe flashing
Straight from the middle right up to the top
Eat or be eaten by the cream of the crop
A smell of burning way down in your soul
When you taught to steal you're never alone
And you fall to the ground
Upon your knees - testify
Bruised and beaten, broken bones
Running so hard you can never go home
You live your life on a torture wheel
Gripped by a breeze of cold blue steel
When you fall to the ground
Upon your knees - testify
Sail into a sea of hell
Oh, you do it so very well
This life you lead will never leave you alone
Testify - testify
Down on your knees and testify
Straight from the middle right up to the top
Eat or be eaten by the cream of the crop
A smell of burning way down in your soul
When you taught to steal you're never alone
When you fall to the ground
Upon your knees - testify
Fall to the ground
Upon your knees - testify
Fall to the ground
Belligerent ghouls run Manchester schools
Spineless swines, cemented minds
Sir leads the troops, jealous of youth
Same old suit since 1962
He does the military two-step
Down the nape of my neck
I wanna go home, I don't want to stay
Give up education as a bad mistake
Mid-week on the playing fields
Sir thwacks you on the knees
Knees you in the groin, elbow in the face
Bruises bigger than dinner plates
I wanna go home, I don't wanna stay
Belligerent ghouls run Manchester schools
Spineless bastards all
Sir leads the troops, jealous of youth
Same old jokes since 1902
He does the military two-step
Down the nape of my neck
I want to go home, I don't want to stay
Give up life as a bad mistake
Please excuse me from gym
I've got this terrible cold comin' on
He grabs and devours
He kicks me in the showers
Kicks me in the showers
And he grabs and devours
Suddenly, you are twice the man you used to be
Excessive fame in quick death
Would it be different
If he had gone instead
Would you be so hot if you wern't dead?
Famously, you spoke of love philosophy
You're a hypocrite, your
Cruel lack of empathy is long forgot
Would you be so hot if you wern't dead?
Tragically,
There's others better than you, don't you see
Damn the groveling writers
Who disregard your flaws
I have to ask
One pill makes you larger,
And one pill makes you small,
And the ones that mother gives you,
Don't do anything at all.
Go ask Alice,
When she's ten feet tall.
And if you go chasing rabbits,
And you know you're going to fall,
Tell'em a hookah smoking caterpillar,
Has given you the call.
Recall Alice,
When she was just small.
When the men on the chessboard,
Get up and tell you where to go,
And you've just had some kind of mushroom,
And your mind is moving low.
Go ask Alice,
I think she'll know.
When logic and proportion,
Have fallen slowly dead,
And the White Knight is talking backwards,
And the Red Queen's off her head!
Remember what the Dormouse said.
Standing around trying to get her somewhere
Whatcha gonna do?
Tried and I can't speak
Gets you nowhere
Looking for a scheme
Ah, teenage dream
Ah, teenage dream
Lookin' for another teenage dream
Lookin' for another teenage dream
Well, I'm lookin' for another teenage dream
Well, I'm lookin' for another teenage dream
Stranger things have happened
Stranger things than this
What makes you feel so bad?
Stuck in the city
Hiding in the trash well feels like
I've been had
Ah, teenage dream
Ah, teenage dream
Lookin' for another teenage dream
Lookin' for another teenage dream
Well, I'm lookin' for another teenage dream
Well, I'm lookin' for another teenage dream
Lookin' for another teenage dream
Lookin' for another teenage dream
Well, I'm lookin' for another teenage dream
Well, I'm lookin' for another teenage dream
I said teenage, teenage, teenage dream
Teenage, teenage, teenage dream
Teenage, teenage, teenage dream
Teenage, teenage, teenage dream
Teenage, teenage dream
Teenage, teenage dream
Teenage, teenage dream
You could spend your time
In a darkened room
Just to gather folks opinions
Can you stand the heat?
Can you wrong the rights
And I love you, thanks a million
And if there's a god
Let him strike you down
Knowing that you can't deliver
But you held me up
And you hung me out
And we're waiting still for you to bring
Light to a darkened room
But I know you will
It'll make my day
When I see your face
On a dollar bill
And they counted you out
Then they counted you in
And they're counting still
And for all the lies you're about to tell
May the lord make us
Truely thankfull
In a two horse race
If you bet each way
Could you maybe stay the distance
And if I should hide
From your puppeteers
Will they make me look ridiculous
Did you like the game
Can you take the blame
After all the dust has settled
Did you ever hope
For a hopeless world
Hungry for the time that you'd bring a
Light to a darkened room
But I know you will
It'll make my day
When I see your face
On a dollar bill
And they counted you out
Then they counted you in
And they're counting still
And for all the lies you're about to tell
May the lord make us
Truely thankfull
We could talk all night
Never touch the side
But I don't mean to demean you
Ever felt the cold
When you saw the light
Did the mirror show that dream of you
All the endless miles
And the babies smiles
While the mothers pledge allegiance
To uphold the wrong
To opress the right
Ready to sign up when you bring the
Light to a darkened room
But I know you will
It'll make my day
When I see your face
On a dollar bill
They counted you out
Then they counted you in
And they're counting still
And for all the lies you're about to tell
May the lord make us
Torn, reckless I'm born
Sent here to fall
Under another spell, blindly
Green, sacrifice me
Float down the stream
Over the waterfall, send me
Smiling faces through the ages, animated, innocently
Ever waiting, turning the pages slow
Desperation ups the stakes onto the table, holding aces
Never pays while ever romancing gold
Under the skin I crawl
But under the wheels I fall
Bleed colours of green
Misguided needs
Down with the dogs I feed
Craving sleep
Hypnotise me
Poison my dreams
You rape my memories, gently
Smiling faces through the ages, animated, innocently
Ever waiting, turning the pages slow
Desperation ups the stakes onto the table, holding aces
Never pays while ever romancing gold
Under the skin I crawl
But under the wheels I fall
Under the wheels I fall
Under the skin I'm crawling
Smiling faces through the ages, animated, innocently
Ever waiting, turning the pages slow
Desperation ups the stakes onto the table, holding aces
Never pays while ever romancing gold
Under the skin I crawl
But under the wheels I fall
Under the skin I'm crawling
Under the wheels I...
under the floor again
once i was up and in the air but now i'm down
goodbye to all my friends
forget i ever was,the mole goes underground
under the floor again
eight years of hide and seek no peek of me is seen
i skip the law again
the to and fro the come and go and miss the scene
but who was the girl we saw last night
wearing a frock and gown she's kinda paralysed
a door in the flor a head materialised
i'm sure that i saw a face i recogni-i-i-ised
don't say a word
just stay here at my leisure
no sound is heard
can't take my simple pleasures
like walking in the park
and taking in the air
just lock me in the dark
it's no fun
under the floor again
my baccy,bets,and beer are here and all i need
i'm feeling sore again
three feet of life is all i have and rats to feed
won't say a word
just stay here at my leisure
no sound is heard
can't take my simple pleasures
like breathing in the air
it's cleaner than the stuff i've had
in recent months
it's no fun
under the floor again
I'm in a tailspin
But I feel I'm going to win
My mind leaves my body
When you brush against my skin
I shake and I shiver
There's a fever all the time
Digging up emotions
That lie inside my mind
I'm in a tailspin
And my head keeps burning
I'm in a tailspin
And my head keeps burning
Oh! this strange thing
I know I let it in
I can only blame myself
Walking on ice so thin
I want to change now
Right before your eyes
I can only pray, I have
Let it go this time
I'm in a tailspin
And my head keeps burning
I'm in a tailspin
And my head keeps burning
What's locked up inside
What are the creatures in your mind
I'm in a tailspin
But I feel I'm going to win
My mind leaves my body
When you brush against my skin
I shake and I shiver
There's a fever all the time
Digging up emotions
That lie inside my mind
I'm in a tailspin
And my head keeps burning
I'm in a tailspin
And my head keeps burning
Now it's unfolding
It's all been a dream
It's been my place to hide
I'm in a tailspin
And my head keeps burning
I'm in a tailspin
And my head keeps burning
Tailspin
I'm in a tailspin

(Vanian/Scabies/Sensible/Ward)
There's too much confusion for a young man to take
Look at my eyes that ain't easy to fake
I've got no spirit left to break
I'll slash my wrists ain't no mistake
Help me
Oh help me
Help me
Oh help me
Suicide suicide it's happening again
Suicide suicide I'm losing my brain
Suicide suicide what can I do
I'm gonna kill myself because of you
I've lost track of logical thinking
I'm sitting in a room not even blinking
Into the darkness I am sinking
About to hear the angels singing
Help me
Oh help me
Help me
Oh help me
Suicide suicide it's happening again
Suicide suicide I'm losing my brain
Suicide suicide what can I do
I'm gonna kill myself because of you
My mind's going round faster and faster
The scripts been read and there's no disaster
I was in with a chance but I'm a bastard
I'm lying awake in a hospital plaster
Help me
Oh help me
Help me
Oh help me
Suicide suicide it's happening again
Suicide suicide I'm losing my brain
Suicide suicide what can I do
(chorus)
13 with a problem(x3)
you're a stretcher acse baby
say you could kiss like a dream
said your flesh was like peaches and cream
but while you're here, that don't mean a thing
cause you're a stretcher case baby
(chorus)
it may be the floor
for the third year whore
but soon you'll be laid out
not in ecstasy but
its your autopsy
(chorus)
so i wouldn't pay
so whjy did you say i'll scream
you caught a brick in your face
and thats why you're a stretcher case baby
did you ever see a man turned inside out
he can come and go without a sound
they say ok when they turn you down
'cos someones always smiling when they really frown
chorus
you turf me out can't keep me down
'cos i'm a stranger on the town
don't put me down
and i only want a place to rest my head
but if looks could kill i might as well be dead
get me on my feet, take me to the door
i'll face the law might even get a bed
repeat chorus twice
don't need me, won't feed me now
just say the word, just smile as i'm thrown out
repeat chorus
and the city's new, so the faces change
i know they're different yet they act the same
i've read the script, and i know the score
i know it's only time before i'm shown the door
repeat chorus twice
i've got some money, so do you love me now ?
now will you run me out, and they wonder why i shout
even in a crowd when you're all alone

they stare mean and proud,you've gotta get away
you gotta get away
so i'm a stranger,and though you put me down you know i
aint no clown,and you're a stranger
'cause I'll see you around when the chips are down
and i'm a stranger on the town....
ooh ooh the city's new,the faces change
i know they're different yet they act the same
'cos i'm a stranger on the town
and i only wanna place to rest my head
if looks could kill i might as well be dead
'cos i'm a stranger on the town, yes i am
and everyone tries to put you down
nobody wants to have you around

I get up and save the world
And though it may be a game
I know it may sound absurd
But I dig the challenge
Gotta hit the sites
Because I'm always surfin', always surfin'
Surfin' for my life
Chatting with a new made chum
Doesn't know I look a bum
She thinks that I'm 6 foot 3
Look like Jason Priestly
Gotta hit the sites
Because I'm always surfin', always surfin'
Surfin' for my life
Surfin' - Looking for a new dimention
Surfin' - Something for my attention
Surfin' - Fire my imagination, Russian porn or new playstation
I get up and save the world
And though it may be a game
I know it may sound absurd
But I dig the challenge
Gotta hit the sites
Because I'm always surfin', always surfin'
We've been crying now for much too long
And now we're gonna dance to a different song
Gonna sream and shout til my dying breath
Gonna smash it up til theres nothing left
(chorus)
Oooh ooh smash it up, smash it up, smash it up
Oooh ooh smash it up, smash it up, smash it up
People call me villain oh its such a shame
Maybe its my clothes must be to blame
I don't even care if I look a mess
Don't wanna be a sucker like all the rest
(chorus)
Smash it up (x5)
Smash it up, you can keep your krishna burgers
Smash it up, and your Glastonbury hippies
Smash it up, you can stick your frothy lager
Smash it up, and your blow wave hairstyles
(repeat verse 1)
(chorus)
And everybodys smashing things now
She knows - about all the evil in this world
She knows - what blackness lurks in our souls
She parts her lips and gives me a literary quip
Sharper and sweeter than any cat-o-nine tails whip
She makes me feel like a king
She is the reasoning that makes life swing
She says - come on and swing away from blue
She says - don't yeild to it's atmospheric hue
She's got the power to make things turn out right
Even in the darkest hour of the very blackest night
She makes me feel like a king
She is the reasoning that makes life swing
Eyes limped and pools of passion
Lips of deepest darkest damson
Fingers probing show white skin
Like a leather disciplinary
Looking rather predatory
Like an emissary of sin
She knows - we've got nothing more to prove
She knows - we're dancing in a dead mans shoes
She says let's check out of this haunted hotel
Where all the corridors and doorways are leading straight to hell
She makes me feel like a king
She is the reasoning that makes life swing
She makes me feel like a king
She is the reasoning that makes life swing
When you move in right up close to me
That's when I get the shakes all over me
Quivers down my back bone
I've got the shakes down the kneebone. Yeah!
The tremors in the thighbone
Shakin' all over
Just the way you say goodnight to me
Brings that feeling on inside of me
Quivers down my back bone
I've got the shakes down the kneebone. Yeah!
The tremors in the thighbone
Shakin' all over
Well, you make me shake and I like it, baby
Well, you make me shake and I like it, baby
Well, you make me shake and I like it, baby
Well, you make me shake and I like it, baby
Well, you make me shake and I like it, baby
Shadowed by life well you never can tell
Fall down a hole and you burn in hell
Striptease yourself against the wall
And watch the shadows begin to fall
Shadows, shadows
Shadows begin to fall
Crazy, crazy dancing fire
Think of those days that took you higher
Look at yourself through a telescope
Drowned by life well there's always hope
And shadows, shadows
Shadows begin to fall
I don't need those shadows
I don't need those shadows
To fall
I don't need those shadows
I don't need those shadows
To fall
I don't need those shadows
Shadowed by life well you never can tell
Fall down a hole and you burn in hell
Striptease yourself against the wall
And watch the shadows begin to fall
Shadows, shadows
Shadows begin to fall
Crazy, crazy dancing fire
Think of those days that took you higher
Look at yourself through a telescope
Drowned by life well there's always hope
And shadows, shadows
Shadows begin to fall
I don't need those shadows
I don't need those shadows
To fall
I don't need those shadows
I don't need those shadows
Don't be afraid to stand in the shadow of love
The hour is late and you know that time waits for no-one
See the glow of the soul in her face
Then you know that you're caught in the shadow of love
A brief embrace and fear and restraint have all gone
Innocence burns, -yes a fire that burned all along
See the doors about to swing both ways
See the answer mirrored in her gaze
Then you know that you're caught in the shadow of love
Every night, every day
I experience the most exquisite pain
A thousand whispers seem to say
I light a candle to you and I pray
I kneel to pray
Now don't be afraid to get caught in the shadow of love
Play the game take a chance or you haven't the power of love
See the glow of a soul in her face
See the glow of her saving veil of grace
Then you know that you're caught in the shadow of love
1 2 3 4

I remember what you said, second time around
Don't you wish that we were dead, second time around
Now its time for you to see, second time around
What your love so did for me, second time around
Really famous stinking rich, second time around
Straight up there without a hitch, second time around
I remember what you said, second time around
Don't you wish that we were dead, second time around
No more getting pushed around, second time around
I know its late and I should go to bed
But I can't tear away from the night
It holds the seed of a memory
It's true of you
When I first saw you I realised
The fire burned deep behind your eyes
I knew a kiss would paralyse
It's true from you
Awake in the night to whisper your name
Only silence replies, its answer a sleeping refrain
The moments die but memory stays
Love like a god above us, run our way by
We spin and we climb
To where once sirens cried
And then sometimes angels can be devils too
It's true of you, it's true of you
When shadows no longer fall
And footsteps can't be heard at all
I hear the ghost of a call
It's true from you
Awake in the night to whisper your name
Only silence replies its answer a sleeping refrain
The moments die but memory stays
Reaching for something thats just out of reach
Lost to your lips and drowned in your kiss
The tide of your passion is now but a dream
I read about a bug eyed mad dog
Taking London in a storm
I heard about a blue eyed heroine
Screaming out for help
I held my breath as ten claws
Came through the cabin door
And timeing forces slipped a cross
The trator'sticky core
I was just a hero of the human race
But monsters keep on trying
To take control of space
I heard about a great new movie
That took the world by storm
People said the effects were groovy
The plot was personal
The garbage was whiter than white
The villain mostly dark
The hero was enlightened by light
Dogs began to bark
I was just a hero of the human race
But monsters keep on trying
To take control of space
You treat me like a dog
Give me a bone to chew
Frothing at the mouth
Frothing all over you
Yeah I get rabid over you
I'm kind of rabid over you
I'm kind of rabid over you
Your daddy's got a gun
He's gonna put me down
Compliments of public health
Horror teenage town
Yeah I've been bitten over you
I'm kind of rabid over you
I'm kind of rabid over you
rabid rabid rabid
I can't stand the rain (rabid)
Water on the brain (rabid)
I'm kind of rabid over you
I just gotta hide (rabid)
I want to bite (rabid)
I'm kind of rabid over you
I can't stand the rain (rabid)
Water on the brain (rabid)
I'm kind of rabid over you
We just gotta hide (rabid)
I want to bite (rabid)
Psychomania, Psychomania
She is the substance of my dreams
A spectre in the wind
Take my dare, take me there
On the trail of the jewel trail
If you've got a notion
Like a bullet set in motion
Shining chrome shiny leather
Penetrate the night forever
Psychomania, Psychomania
The pleasure of the beast
Cursing through our veins
Burn the night burn the day
A burning light on our a mounlight flight
Everything blurs in the shadow
Straight and true shot like an arrow
Tales of love tales of terror
Ghost-riders go hell for leather
Psychomania, drives me crazier
Psychomania
Psychomania
Everything blurs in the shadow
Straight and true shot like an arrow
Tales of love tales of terror
Ghost-riders go hell for leather
Streak the night with our burning flight
Crimson eyes that blur in the twilight
Psychomania, drives me crazier
Psychomania, drives me crazier
Everything blurs in the shadow
Straight and true shot like an arrow
Like a spectre in the wind
She is the substance of my dreams
stealing cars, lost in bars
treating hired T.V's like superstars
i wanna come home at 3AM
i love my records alright and I'm gonna play em
(chorus)
problem child, problem child,
we think you live much too wild
problem child, problem child
when you get home your daddys gonna
tan your hide
gonna pose to my sister
only need to be a teen dream hipster
don't care about my dreams at school
or my teacher, probabtion lady says
you ain't so cool
(chorus)
(2nd verse)
(chorus)
problem child, problem child
when you get home
i used to get real bored in class
i don't need no politics to make me dance
no rules, no laws, no regulations
no fashion strips, no race relations
(chorus)
i just wanna run around
i don't wanna settle down
politically fashionable scenes
fascist managers dreams
my politics don't sell clothes
and rights don't sell my songs
if i vote for something its something
its something i can see
give me fun not anarchy
these feelings locked inside my head
i try to reason out of bed
these feelings locked inside of me
will never see the light of day
slowly upwards faster down
reach the top and hit the ground
so many things we left unsaid
so many feelings left for dead
a love affair like this could last
i take a trip back through the past
it tears my heart out deep inside
to think of times i spent inside
chorus :
the pleasure and the pain
it tells me that i'm in love again
the pleasure and the pain
take a look deep in my eyes
see the emptiness inside
see where forest fires rage
in vain i try to turn the page
but nothing that i say or do
will ever make me forget you
She plays her mouth into a smile
And offers that he stay a while
Two hearts that beat as one
And eyes that hardly ever saw the sun
Hollywood babbles on
She lays a wreath of lilies on his grave
His flame gone along with the love he never gave
Not to be seduced by those red lips
Two dimensional comic clips
Hollywood babbles on,
on and on and on and on.
(chorus)
Channel 7, eyeshades of grey
Too close but two worlds away
Plan 9, her domain
Too close but two worlds away... they say
(repeat)
she don't care about your miseries
there ain't nothing you can do
shes just preying on your injuries
just makes you look a fool
(chorus)
i guess you better fall for another girl
before you fall from above
i guess you better find yourself another girl
cos all you got is a one way
a one way, a one way, a one way, one way love
a one way, a one way, a one way, one way love
one way, a one way, one way, one way love
one way, one way, one way, one way love
she ain't the cutie that you used to know
sh'e the fastest girl in town
she ain't worried whos been shooting her
but thats sure to come around
(chorus)
(repeat verse 1)
(chorus)
hey you take a trip from me
you gotta take a one way love
Obscene
The scene
The dream
Obscene
Demi-gods on golden thrones
Spend most of their time all alone
We're living through them until a decent to hell
Becomes our breakfast thrill
Flesh and blood to dust return
But fantasy we learn goes on and on
The dream
Shining with an inner light
Indefinable and bright
We begin to smell the kill
Sharing every precarious thrill
Flesh and blood may now decay
But forever young - always you will stay
Obscene
The scene
The dream
But look - coming on the scene
Another cat to die for teenage dream
Obscene
The scene
The dream
Michael used to tell us he was bad, bad, bad
And all his funky records made us glad, glad, glad
But when I saw his face, yeah, I was sad, sad, sad
Wuith his only friend a chimp you know it's mad, mad, mad
Neverland, Neverland
Even when he's telling you that black is white
Just some fancy dancing you can stop a fight
Grooving in the forest makes it al alright
What a man, a big hand
Nevcerland, Neverland
The cola king could sit and count the cost, cost, cost
Thinking about the childhood that he lost, lost, lost
You know he couldn't even give a toss, toss, toss
At least he marginally better than the boss, boss, boss
Neverland, Neverland
Even when he's telling you that black is white
Just some fancy dancing you can stop a fight
Grooving in the forest makes it al alright
What a man, give him a hand
Did you love his kingships daughter?
Did you cherish her and take her by the hand?
The papers say that it was all a put up show,
But I don't know, I don't know
Neverland, Neverland
Even when he's telling you that black is white
Just some fancy dancing you can stop a fight
Grooving in the forest makes it al alright
What a man, give him a hand
And when you're walking in your sleep
Think about the people you might meet
You will find that this time around
It's just another dream
Search your mind, and you might find
It's way out of reach
And when you think it's not so far
I know you believe it
You wipe away just what you are
It's you you're deceiving
I never could believe your eyes
And when the dream turns into day
You're lost, you're gone, you're far away
You will find that this time around
It's just another dream
Search your mind and you might find
It's way out of reach
And when you think it's not so far
I know you believe it
You wipe away just what you are
It's you you're deceiving
I never could believe your eyes
When you wake up in a nightmare
All the pictures that you see
Are all coming from inside you
Never believe, never believe
And when you're walking in your sleep
Think about the people you might meet
You will that this time around
It's just another dream
Search your mind, and you might find
It's way out of reach
And when you think it's not so far
You wipe away just what you are
It's you you're deceiving
On, and on, and on
I never could believe your eyes
I never could believe your eyes
be a man ,can a mystery man, be a doll,be a baby doll, it can't be fun not any way,
there can be found no way at all
a distant man can't sympathise,
can't uphold his distant laws,
due to form on that today,
i got a feeling then i hear that call,i said
(chorus)
neat neat neat,she can't afford a cannon,
neat neat neat,she can't afford a gun at all,
neat neat neat,she can't afford a cannon,
neat neat neat,she can't afford a gun at all,
neat neat neat
no crime if there aint no law,
no more cops left to mess you around,
no more dreams of mystery chords,
no more sight to bring you down,
i got a crazy,got a thought in my mind,
my mind's on when she falls asleep,
feelin' fine in her restless time,
then these words upon me creep,i said
(repeat chorus)
(solo bit)
(repeat 1st verse)
Catch the tide at the blood
My TV screen is sick and blood
My walls and floors are it too
The night is comin' after you
Cram the innocent with screams of pain
It coming for you again and again
There's no escape
There's no way out
Catch, catch a horror taxi
I fell in love with my video nasty
Catch, catch a horror train
A freeze frame goin' to drive you insane
The axe is sharp
And the blade is keen
Creatures spillin' from the screen
Shadows fall and all is gloom
You're not so safe
In the safety of your room
All I want is to make a killing
To thrill and kill might be really thrilling
Why are my victims so unwilling
You can be sure that you won't see me
With that action meany
Catch, catch a horror taxi
I fell in love with my video nasty
Catch, catch a horror train
A freeze frame goin' to drive you insane
Catch, catch a horror taxi
I fell in love with my video nasty
Catch, catch a horror train
A freeze frame goin' to drive you insane
Catch, catch a horror taxi
I fell in love with my video nasty
Catch, catch a horror train
My desire is your frustration
It's hard for you to take
The way I've changed
Your strange ways
Have left me cold and hollow
I know you never cared
But it scared the hell out of me
Now it's coming clear to me
This fear is in my mind
It's opened up a can of worms
Open up my mind
Well! curse this town
It's just no good for me
I'm gonna leave it all behind in pieces
I'm gonna walk a line
Yeah, get right out of here
If it's the last thing
I do I am leaving
Now it's coming clear to me
The fear is in my mind
It's opened up a can of worms
Open up my eyes
Now it's coming clear to me
The fear is in my mind
It's opened up a can of worms
Now it's coming clear to me
The fear is in my mind
It's opened up a can of worms
Open up my eyes
Now it's coming clear to me
The fear is in my mind
It's opened up a can of worms
My desire
My desire
I remember what you said (second time around)
Don't you wish that we were dead (second time around)
No more getting pushed around (second time around)
Not that we've gone underground (second time around)
Now its time for you to see (second time around)
What the Love Song did for me (second time around)
Really famous stinking rich (second time around)
Straight up there without a hitch (second time around)
I remember what you said (second time around)
Don't you wish that we were dead (second time around)
No more getting pushed around (second time around)
This is my house please come on in
It's time to cleanse yourself of sin
Get thee down upon your knees
'Cos non-belief is a disease, Amen
Come all ye faithful, heed the bells
This trip could save you all from hell
Burning crosses through the night
Come and join the holly fight, Amen
So you hear your shephard calling
My wraith won't be denied
Don't stand there looking sheepish
Come and join the flock inside
Who says these people are insane
It's only brainwash, quite humane
A thousand channels take your pick
Another mystic lunatic, Amen
Think you can challenge me come on
I've seen 'em all off one by one
Old Gallileo's long forgot
Though he was right and we were not, Amen
Deliver you from evil
That never was the plan
To those who fall for this one
Deserve the lousy hand
This twisted truth, this slight of hand
Has kept the devil in command
Beyond those gates up in the sky
Here comes Johnny Yen again
With the liquor and drugs
And the flesh machine
He's gonna do another striptease
Hey man where'd you get
That lotion? I been hurting
Since I bought the gimmick
About something called love
Yeah something called love
That's like hypnotizing chickens
Well I am just a modern guy
Of course I've had it in the ear before
'Cause of a lust for life
'Cause of a lust for life
I'm worth a million in prizes
With my torture film
Drive a G.T.O.
Wear a uniform
All on a government loan
I'm worth a million in prizes
Yeah I'm through with sleeping on the
Sidewalk - no more beating my brains
With the liquor and drugs
With the liquor and drugs
Well I am just a modern guy
Of course I've had it in the ear before
'Cause of a lust for life
'Cause of a lust for life
I got a lust for life
Got a lust for life
Oh a lust for life

Itching once you buy the gimmick
About something called love
Oh love love love
That's like hypnotizing chickens
Well I am just a modern guy

'Cause of a lust for life

Yeah a lust for life

They come to see the dungeons here
The tourists flock from far and near
They do the tower and try the beer
The picking pockets cost your life
And every jury has a price
They bring the kids and show the wife
It makes them proud to be around
And take their summer piccies
To drink at night in Soho bars
And end up feeling sickie
And we're all making money
Lovely money
Rubber necks with cash to burn
Export criminals return
They keep on coming, never learn
They fill their diaries page by page
And make it sound so thrilling
They're searching for the real thing
They're flushed and they are willing
And we're all making money
Lovely money
The victors of the opium wars
Now take their trips and open doors
They stand upon the actual floors
Actual floors, actual floors
It makes them proud to be around
And take their summer piccies
To drink at night in Soho bars
And end up feeling sickie
More money, more money
More money, more money
Now off you go, away you fly
We've had your money now goodbye
We fleeced you good we bled you dry
Goodbye goodbye
I know it
You know it
They know it
But I don't care
Communication breakdown
Is everywhere
Faster, faster
Thrill me baby, yeah
I'm fueled up and ready
(but hey)
Don't mess up my hair
You want some action baby, yeah?
Lookin' for action baby, yeah?
You want some action baby, yeah?
You want some action baby, yeah, yeah, yeah
Passed over
Kicked over
I'll take it all
I don't care
Gimme your heart
Gimme art
But daddio it just
Get's me nowhere
They think I make deals
With the devil
But you gotta know
Gotta find me some new kicks
See that girl, watch her fall
Another drunken barroom brawl
Oh no, get the sticking plaster
Loves to love, gets abused
Goes for rogues and ends up bruised
Get out, have no lord or master
Oh, Little Miss Disaster
Oh, living so much faster
Oh, Little Miss Disaster
The pressure's on, it's getting tough
Self esteem's not enough
Oh don't, you end up as a martyr
She knows she has the right to choose
Some to win and some to lose
But hey, she is so much smarter
Oh, Little Miss Disaster
Oh, living so much faster
Oh, Little Miss Disaster
Miss just like her hair
Well its all chaos and spikes
Just one thing is certain
She does just what she likes
And she don't care
Just stand clear and you will see
A tantrum speciality
She can, fill the room with laughter
Party-time, social whirl
Could it be this special girl lives on
happy ever after?
Oh, Little Miss Disaster
Oh, living so much faster
Oh, Little Miss Disaster
Oh, Little Miss Disaster
Oh, living so much faster
Stand in a line like a parking meter
Am I all alone
A vision of mine is becoming clear
Its all so new it can't be true
Sometimes the words appear in my head
Sometimes I'm falling out of my bed
(chorus)
Oh, is it a dream , what does it mean ?
Oh is it a dream, what have I seen ?
I know a man, he's really awful nice
He isn't here
We whiled away an evening , maybe two
But what did that man really do
Sometimes I feel like walking away
Sometimes there's something I've got to say
(chorus)
Then suddenly
Like a fly in a cup of tea
I'm stirred and no longer free
To fly away
I think back to the other life
That was borrowed the other night
Could It be that it just might
Drive me wild
Help, I need somebody,
Help, not just anybody,
Help, you know I need someone,
Help!
When I was younger, so much younger than today,
I never needed anybody's help in anyway.
But now these days are gone, I'm not so self assured,
Now I find I've changed my mind, I've opened up the
doors.
Help me if you can, I'm feeling down
And I do appreciate you being 'round.
Help me get my feet back on the ground,
Won't you please, please help me?
And now my life has changed in oh so many ways,
My independence seems to vanish in the haze.
But every now and then I feel so insecure,
I know that I just need you like, I've never done
before.
Help me if you can, I'm feeling down
And I do appreciate you being 'round.
Help me get my feet back on the ground,
Won't you please, please help me?
When I was younger, so much younger than today,
I never needed anybody's help in anyway.
But now these days are gone, I'm not so self assured,
Now I find I've changed my mind, I've opened up the
doors.
Help me if you can, I'm feeling down
And i do appreciate you being 'round.
Help me get my feet back on the ground,
Won't you please, please help me?
Help me,

Maybe It's cos' of the way that I dress
They say I look out of place
And my taste is a mess
And there ain't
No point in trying
Cos' I know what they're dying to do
Some stupid opinions
on the way that I am
They can look at me
and I don't give a damn, damn, damn
They got no sense of humour
They only spread the rumour
They say I'm just misguided
I don't agree
I think I'm wonderful
I think I'm wonderful
Sometimes I have a couple, over the eight
When I go over the top
Get in a hell of a state
And there ain't
No point in trying
Cos' I know what they're dying to do
Stick them, their feelings, what a way to behave
You say I'm crazy but you can't look away
It's just a noise they're making
Whose got the time to take it?
They think I'm nothing special
I don't agree
I think I'm wonderful
I think I'm wonderful
I think I'm wonderful
I think I'm wonderful
The one mistreated
I won't be beaten
I can't be beaten now
And I'm mistrusted
I won't be busted
They call me bastard yeah
I think I'm wonderful
I think I'm wonderful
I think I'm wonderful
I think I'm wonderful
Hey! hey! hey!........
I know I'm wonderful
I know I'm wonderful
I get up in the morning, kiss the mirror
Hello gorgeous
Hey baby, you wanna have a good time?
I need your time, I need your soul
I need this temperature to go down low
Got to realize my word's the truth
I never thought that I could lose
But when I get you on the phone
My heart is so alone
I need a life, I need a life
I've watched you stumble
I've seen you fall
I've picked you up
When you could only crawl
Got to realize my word's the truth
I never thought
That I could lose
But when I get you on the phone
My heart is so alone
I need a life, I need a life
I need your time, I need your soul
I need this temperature to go down low
Got to realize my word's the truth
I never thought that I could lose
But when I get you on the phone
My heart is so alone
I need a life, I need a life
I've watched you stumble
I've seen you fall
I've picked you up
When you could only crawl
Got to realize my word's the truth
And I never thought that I could lose
But when I get you on the phone
My heart is so alone
I need a life, I need a life
But when I get you on the phone
My heart is so alone
I need a life, I need a life
And when I get you on the phone
I Just Can't Be Happy Today
I Just Can't Be Happy Today
A lot of you know
theres not a smile
thers no feeling bad
without feeling fine
thers a price on your head
nobody sighed when justice is read
I Just Can't Be Happy Today
I Just Can't Be Happy Today
They're closing the schools
They're burning the books
The church is in ruins
The priests hang on hooks
The radios
been banned
The army's in power
The devil command
Illegal to dance
Forbidden to cry
You do what you're toldYou never ask why
Ignore all those fools
They don't understand
We make our own rules
I Just Can't Be Happy Today
I Just Can't Be Happy Today
I Just Can't Be Happy
Just Can't Be Happy
Just Can't Be Happy Today
I Just Can't Be Happy
Just Can't Be Happy
Hey, Keith

Outta my mind on a Saturday night
Nineteen seventy seven babies rollin' in sight
Radio's burning up above
Beautiful baby, be my love

Feel alright, feel alright
[Incomprehensible]

i never thought it would turn out like this
another case of hit or miss
i gave you everything that money could buy
things for your wardrobe things to get you high
i never wanted you to bring it back
i didn't see you stab me in the back
another hit or miss another hit or miss
another chance of hit or miss
another hit or miss another hit or miss

and i was looking for a kiss
Did you notice that just recently in London town
The flags all waved
The people smiled a lot, the world was right
But now it seems that nothing's changed
My ears are ringing with the promise
The promise that they'll right the wrongs
And that they're ever gonna give you
Democracy, Democracy (you wanna bet?)
We've been down this path a million times
And yet there seems no hope for us
These times are hard and yet the few do well
The rest can wallow in the dust
And if you're looking for the answers
You won't need a chrystal ball
'Cause they're not taking any chances on
Democracy, Democracy (not on you life)
Don't tell me revolution changed a thing in France
'Cept for a king or two
'Cause when it's Bastile Day a toxic time bomb ticks
In the Pacific blue
'Cause revolution changes nothing
And voting changes even less
'Cause it's only time you are wasting on
When you're hit by hunger
You just don't feel right
It's pulling you under
Your head's in a vice
You light a blue paper
From the power of one
Look in the mirror
See what you have done
Heaven can take your lies
No need to mystify
No! no! no!
You've called on the spirits
And taken their names
You've paid the price
For it's going down the drain
Told all your troubles
Bored all your friends
The cards in your pack
All wild with contempt
Heaven can take your lies
No need to mystify
No! no! no!
You just keep guessing
This life's undressing
And your hands keep slipping
From around all your lies
And heaven can take your lies
No need to mystify
No! no! no!
When you're hit by hunger
You just don't feel right
It's pulling you under
Your head's in a vice
You light a blue paper
From the power of one
Look in the mirror
See what have you done
Heaven can take your lies
No need to mystify
No! no! no!
You just keep guessing
This life's undressing
And your hands keep slipping
From around all your lies
All of your lies
You just keep guessing
This life's undressing
But your hands keep slipping
From around all your lies
All of your lies
Heaven can take your lies
No need to mystify
i do expect you might have heard
through state research,an old jailbird
about the guys, the gun fury riot forces
a warning sounds, they're dressed to kill
they're out of bounds, we've had our fill
who dares resist the gun fury riot forces
chorus :
they're glad to be your friend
they hate the public they defend
they call the shots from start to end
shots from start to end
a handbag man, he makes a snatch
in riot cops, he's met his match
he lies dead before, the gun fury riot forces
a warning sounds, they're dressed to kill
they're out of bounds, we've had our fill
who dares resist the gun fury riot forces ?
they're glad to be your friend
they hate the public they defend
big city all scratched out,revenge is not so sweet
once proud once so devout they're tired and they are weak
they came from east to west,counting up the cost
red star soon to arrive,they know that all is lost
(chorus :)
and only the wounded remain
the generals have all left the game
with no will to fight
they'll fade with the light
there's nobody left they can blame
what once was decadence,now's nothing but raized land
the end so imminent,big city's not so grand
they came they saw they conquered ,people hid in fear
they looted, raped and plundered angry russians bare
(repeat chorus)
reichstag,flies red flag, signalling the end
party now bad bad, suicide the end
there's some who think that golden years might lie ahead
no leaders anymore, in the bunker ,dead
(repeat chorus , then :)
and only the wounded remain
the generals have all left the game
with no will to fight
they'll fade with the light

I've woken from darkness with passion
You're surely to blame for it
This torture so wicked
You hurt me just for the hell of it
'Til the end of time
The end of time
You will be mine
You want me, I need you
Don't ever say that it cannot be
You're wondering, I'm dreaming
I hope and pray that you'll stay with me
'Til the end of time
The end of time
You will be mine
Love don't play be rules so
Ignore the world when it cannot see
Feels strange now, I'm chained now
It's only you that can set me free

You will be mine

Wonder what might have been

What Emma knows
And what I know is that whenever we're apart
She will be missing me
And I'll be missing her dreadfully
And very special to me
She's gone to university
Maybe she's sleeping now
Or wide awake with a friend
It doesn't bother me
'Cause pretty soon she will be next to me
Because she loves me you see
And then she'll smile as she opens her eyes
And kiss me when the morning comes
What Emma doesn't know
I treasure everything about her so
And every second that she spends with me
I get the feeling that she doesn't believe
It is essential to me
To have her smile as she opens her eyes
And kiss me when the morning comes
I will dive off the edge of the world
I will fly to wherever you are
think you're pretty mean, acting sixteen
looking real tough, ain't anger enough
with your harlem clothes, try and act with your pose
well if i look in your eyes just run and hide
(chorus)
you can't, you can't fool me(x2)
now the actions begun you ain't scaring no-one
just back in a quick, you only make me feel sick
just go on home, leave us alone
go and beat up your cat, i bet, i bet you're good at that
(chorus)
(2nd verse)
Every night I'm there
I'm always there
She knows I'm there and heaven knows
I hope she goes
I find it hard to realize
That love was in her eyes
It's dying now
She knows I'm crying now
And every night I'm there
I break my heart to please
Eloise
Eloise
You know, I'm on my knees, yeah
I said, please
You're all I want, so hear my prayer
My prayer
My Eloise
Is like the stars that please the night
The sun that makes the day
That lights the way
And when that star goes by
I'll hold it in my hands and cry
Her love was mine
You know my sun will shine
And every night I'm there
I break my heart to please
Eloise
Eloise
You're all I want
You've got to hear my prayer
My prayer
My Eloise
I'd love to please her
I'd like to care
But she's not there
And when I find you
I'd be so kind
Want to stay
I know you'd stay
And as the days grow old
The nights grow cold
I wanna hold her near to me
You know, she's dear to me
And only time will tell
And take away this lonely hell
I'm on my knees
But to my Eloise
And every night I'm there
I break my heart to please
Eloise
My Eloise
You are my life so hear my prayer
You are the prize, I know you're there
I know you're there
You're all I want, you've got to hear my prayer
Yeah, yeah, yeah
You're all I need but you're not there
Oh no, you're not there, no, no, no, no
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
My Eloise
Oh, got to please her
Oh, Eloise
My Eloise, oh, my Eloise
Don't lie to me
I said, no, no, no, no
My Eloise, my Eloise
You've got to
Wake up, this is not a dream...

Dr. Woofenstein dreams of incredible things in the
window
Hatching shadowy schemes, overthrowing us beings, as he
can do
Down in his hole he waits
and plans with patience
nobody knows what he sees
or devises in silence
it's not a ploy he enjoys
to retreat to the shadows
his satellites have gone blind
but his demons breathe
Dr. Woofenstein dreams of incredible things in the
window
Hatching shadowy schemes, overthrowing us beings, as he
can do
His promises are empty
but full is his mind
and as the end burneth nigh
back home he made plenty
warmed by the fires of his hate
and the ice in his veins
and when the earth stops to breathe
will he rest in peace?
Dr. Woofenstein dreams of incredible things in the

Hatching shadowy schemes, overthrowing us beings, as he

And will nobody take him for real?
pull the curtains away to reveal?

In the darkened alleys left behind
Is it real or footsteps in your mind
Are those voices in your head
Are you living or are you dead
Don't trouble trouble 'till trouble troubles you
Don't trouble trouble 'till trouble troubles you
Needs society so desperately
Are you you or are you me
And it doesn't matter anymore
I can bleed your life right to the floor
Don't trouble trouble 'till trouble troubles you
Don't trouble trouble 'till trouble troubles you
Keep yourself to yourself be carefull what you do
Don't trouble trouble 'till trouble troubles you
There's a sign upon the door says
No permission anymore

Who is the person that everyone knows?
She seems to live her life so naturally
An angel in the guise of something else
What lies behind those eyes in mystery?
A wealth of secrets
A light in a dream
I'd like to know what they mean
A haunted voice from a ghost like face
I hope and pray that it won't end
The light is fading you're not the one in your eyes
The others follow in your disguise
Chorus
Who is the person that everyone knows?
She seems to live her life so naturally
An angel in the guise of something else
What lies behind those eyes in mystery?
A wealth of secrets
A light in a dream
Take my hand, discoman
Are you just a one night stand?
Have some fun, jump the gun
But what's left when it's all done
But who are you taking for a ride, discoman
Better to run or else to hide discoman, discoman
Tall and neat, watch his feet
Got the jist he's all complete
Understand discomans
Heading for the garbage can
Have you just crossed a bridge too far, discoman
Jump in a cab and steal a car, the worse in the land
Discoman, one night stand, discoman
I can't understand, discoman
What are you doing
Your life's in a ruin
You're out of our head
You oughta be dead
Down the stairs, no-one cares
He who wuins is he who dares
Rock n Roll, lose control
Just forget you're on the dole
But who are you taking for a ride, discoman
Better to run or else to hide, worst in the land
Discoman, one night stand, discoman
I can't understand, discoman
Are you ready(x2)

Here we go now!
I'm a villan I'm a rogue
I'll nick your wallet or garden gnome
I'm a burglar I'm a cad
An open window I'm in your home
I'll have your tools or kiddies toys
And I'm not safe - a joy of joys
I'll be the gasman or a toad
I'll have your telly or garden hose
While I'm scoping in the dark
I'll strap your dog so he won't bark
I won't disturb your only dreams
But if you wake up there's no screams
I'll nick anything removable
From the QE2 to the toilet paper in the houses of parliment
I'll even have the milk off your doorstep
Or the skin off a baby seals back
'cause I'm a real villan (played backwards)
I'll steal the paper or the milk
Or warn your neighbours or the bill
I'm a stealer I'm a crook
Read about me in Mich's book
Burglary is a life for me
Burglary is a life for me
People say that crime don't pay
I drink champagne every day
And the good lord said 'thou shall not steal'
There is only one path and that is the straight and narrow
It's a bit too bleeding straight and a bit too narrow for my liking
Ok gov It's a fair cop
Throw on the bracelets
Chink chink oh god I'm nicked
I sentence you to six months...
Little by little, I've begun to see
Just why love don't come easily
One step forward and two behind
Waiting for the best chance just takes time
(chorus)
And they call you
Billy Billy bad bad bad bad breaks
All you ever do is make mistakes
Billy billy bad bad bad bad breaks
All you ever do is make mistakes
Beyond the realms of fantasy
We can see that it's not to be
We can not be like Howard Hughs
We don't have the choice to choose
(chorus)
(chorus)
What does the future hold in store
More bad luck at your front door
You take the silver and I'll take the gold
But whos the winner when all is told
Damned for the things I say
Damned for the views I take
Damned whether I'm wrong or right
Damned for the way I live my life
Chorus:
No matter what I do, no matter what I say
I'm always damned
It doesn't seem to matter how honest I am
I'm always damned
Damned by the church, damned by the state
Damned by the world so full of hate
Damned by the left, damned by the right
Damned if I stand or walk from a fight
Damned for the songs I sing
Damned my pride is a sinfull thing
Damned whether I'm mean or nice
Damned for all of my sacrifice
(Repeat Chorus)
Damned for the knowledge I know
Damned for having a mind of my own
Damned for what my eyes see
Damned for my honor and dignity
Who are you to judge, who are you to condemn?
When you don't even know me
If my honesty and virtue makes me bad
Then damned I'll always be
To hell with your church, to hell with your state
To hell with the lies of this land
To hell with you that paint me bad
Because I don't give a damn
Damned!
Damned!
Damned!
Damned!
at times i sit and wonder what's it all mean violence and suffering ??? everyday ??? but progress has destroyed us ??? i ponder more, i better of buy myself think about the dusty bible sitting on my shelf used to believe their was a father so bright but he's not there it's just a lie we're not going to heaven we're already in hell we're all damaged here and i wish you well i wonder where you are now and why you had to leave but my bloods so cold and my heart is cold and i have not time to breath i ponder more, i'm better off by myself think about the dusty bible sitting on my shelf used to believe their was a father so bright but he's not there it's just a lie i've ??? too many times to even bother to write don't tell me what's wrong don't tell me what's right take your hopes and dreams and walk ahead of me cause in the end ???
Another night turns into day
I haven't slept yet, but I'm okay
See if you dabble with fire, there'll be hell to pay
I might as well have a drink to wash away the pain
More cocaine, the devil's in my system, he won't go away
My mind wanders further but I'm not insane
This is just my life, my reality
I've got my pistol on the side of my waist
Don't start, no shit and I won't shoot up the place
My aims kinda bad and my eyes are glazed
But I brought extra clips just in case
Here I am again on the lower east side
Doing my thing, I'm damned
Damned, yes I am
Another night full of crime and sin, so damned
Damned
Here I am night after night
Breaking night again, I'm damned
Damned
And I can't get myself
Out of this rut I'm living in
Another day turns into night
I'm running on fumes, but I'm alright
At least that's what I tell myself every day
I might as well have another drink to wash away the pain
More cocaine, the devil's got a grip and he won't get away
My mind is an altered state
But I'm still the same person
I used to be, right?
Here I am again on the lower east side
Doing my thing, I'm damned
Damned, yes I am
Another night full of crime and sin, so damned
Damned
Here I am night after night
Breaking night again, I'm damned
Damned
And I can't get myself
As bars go these are not the worst ones
I can see my hand reach in and through
Sometimes it makes a shadow
It's like a bird flying across the room at noon
There's too many people not laughing
Their smiles just don't any-things grab your attention
They're gonna take all your attention
Your damned if you do and damned if you don't
With all of your dos and all of your don'ts
Damned if you will and damned if you wont
With all of your dos and all of your don'ts
Now it's not clear what the bricks in this room mean
And the lines between do they mean what I think
It's a map it's a plan for a city
And everywhere you go it's ninety degrees ninety degrees
There's too much organization and not enough participation
And I think you know what I mean when I say participation
There's too many people making ripples sneaky silent swimmers
... I hear{ed}
whispering of hate
grant me the power
{See/seal} your fate
[Chorus:]
my soul is lost in a deepest {hole}
{Bethrow} for me my desire
Battle against the only god
None will stand before me
They gaze into the pits of Hell
Where unlocked we unite
... be the one
All the lords of evil
Nothing remains for embarassed
{the/for} bastard son of emptyness
my soul is lost in a {faithless hole}
{Bethrow} with me my desire
Sacrifice, bleed for him
Sacrifice, lands of god
Sacrifice, {turn on him}
Well, I followed you home tonight
In shadows, hidin' in silence
Watching you walk inside
Radiance swallowed in light
But I know, it ain't right
But for now ... it's all I've got
No reason for alarm
Not here to haunt or harm
There's no love left anymore
But how can I be sure
Well, I know that you need more
But for now ... it's all I'm not
Damned if you do, damned if you don't
Well, I wish you would, but I think you won't
The comedown is no surprise
Delivered in blood and brine
Make-believe wears a thin disguise
This love's just a lonesome lie
Well, it's broken, bottled and blind
But for now ... it's all I've got
Damned if you do, damned if you don't
Well, I wish you would, but I think you won't
Come around, come around
Come around, come around
Damned if you do, damned if you don't
Well, I wish you would, but I think you won't
Damned if you do, damned if you don't
Well, I wish you could, but I think you won't
... I hear{ed}
whispering of hate
grant me the power
{See/seal} your fate
[Chorus:]
my soul is lost in a deepest {hole}
{Bethrow} for me my desire
Battle against the only god
None will stand before me

Sacrifice, my soul is lost
It's easier to hate you,
than to carry you in my heart.
I will take every of your moves,
every step you take.
I would have claimed every day,but

And I would feel better

god tell me should I stay,
should I stay, Babe, should I stay,
