I prayed to god from hell
Run like a midnight bell
Dancing naked in these streets
Thought I was Jesus Christ
As I dug out my eyes
And threw them past the prison gates
So I still can't explain
What I had to do
To try and make it
Since your red lips turned blue
Now I'm a hunted man
Singing the song you sung
Wearing the noose from which you hung
I guess we lost the war
The air I breathed before
Only fill the dead man's lungs
So I still can't explain
What I had to do
To try and make it
Since your red lips turned blue
The devil is the lord
Of this confusing world
Where all the wrong dreams come true
I never needed light
I never felt like I was right
Did not deserve the love I knew
So I still can't explain
What I had to do
To try and make it

He stumbled into faith and thought, God this is all there is
The pictures in his mind arose and began to breathe
And all the Gods and all the worlds
Began colliding on a backdrop of blue
Blue lips, blue veins
He took a step but then felt tired, he said I'll rest a little while
But when he tried to walk again he wasn't a child
And all the people hurried fast, real fast
And no one ever smiled
Blue lips, blue veins
Blue, the color of our planet from far, far away
Blue lips, blue veins
Blue, the color of our planet from far, far away
He stumbled into faith and thought, God this is all there is
The pictures in his mind arose and began to breathe
And no one saw and no one heard, they just followed lead
The pictures in his mind awoke and began to breed
They started out, beneath the knowledge tree
And they chopped it down to make white picket fences
And marching along the railroad tracks
They smile real wide for the camera lenses
They made it past the enemy lines
Just to become enslaved in the assembly lines
Blue lips, blue veins
Blue, the color of our planet from far, far away
Blue lips, blue veins
Blue, the color of our planet from far, far away
Blue, the most human color
Blue, the most human color
Blue, the most human color
Blue lips, blue veins

I have to ask you
Do you want this to be true?
Is there method in all my madness
Or as we flower will we die in full bloom
You're the only thing that keeps me going
With your pillow lips, pillow lips
As we move through cruel waters
Give me strength to be by your side
It's so difficult sometimes to be human
The years they leave us your side
You're the only thing that keeps me going
With your pillow lips, pillow lips
You know I won't give in
You know I won't give in
Pillow lips, pillow lips

MAN #1
(spoken)
Donal, you were born to marry a queen! Too bad she's a ... Pirate!
DONAL
Clan O'Flaherty men,
It's touching to see you
Friends should share
A great occasion like this
With the dawn I wed my O'Malley beauty
I'll need help to face
The challenge
Of wedded
Bliss
I can see you're laughing at me already
My bride's been a captain running a crew
But there is a war, and war brings a duty
This calls for a man to do
What a man
Must
Boys'll be boys,
Lads'll be lads,
Living the way God planned
Showing women how the world ought to be
MATES
Boys'll be boys,
Lads'll be lads,
How to get her in hand?
DONAL
Honest, friends, the answer's right there
Have you never broken a mare?
DONAL AND MATES
Boys are boys, and boys, that's how it should be
BARMAIDS
Boys'll be boys
That is no girl
How will a lad survive
She's a sort of lady shark, as it were
After the drums
Wedding night comes
Who will come out alive?
She's been a captain running a crew
She's killed people, ran 'em right through
Sorry, Donal, lad, I'm betting on her
(DONAL trumps the laughter at his expense.)
DONAL
(holds up a gold coin; spoken)
A gold sovereign says that I, Donal O'Flaherty, will have her eating oats out of my hand within a week!
(sung)
I'll be rough when she needs it,
Rough as seas ever were
Up to know she's been steering
Now it's time to steer her
She's confused about gender
She been too long "at sea"
I may well have to beach her
Take her inland and teach her
What a woman should be
DONAL AND MEN
Boys'll be boys
BARMAIDS
Girls'll be girls
Gotta have one last fling
Gotta cram a lifetime in before dawn
DONAL
Tragic it's not
Want to know what?
Marriage won't change a thing:
Listen, friends, a conjugal vow
Doesn't change a bull to a cow
DONAL AND ALL

Visti da fuori siamo pizza e mandolino
Calcio a catenaccio attori porno e cappuccino
Sguardi sanguinari di mafiosi in borsalino
Capelli impomatati ed abiti griffati alla tony soprano
Viviamo strano
Fieri di come stiamo
Senza troppi pensieri ci adattiamo alla vita che facciamo
Pure se non ? fatta su misura
Troviamo il modo per riuscire a rendercela meno dura
Ossessionati da polemica e politica
Col resto dell’ europa che ci osserva e che ci giudica
Al momento terzo mondo di cinema e musica
Trent’anni fa si spopolava anche in america
Ognuno ha la sua logica
La sua versione ironica
La sua visione della vita simile a una satira
E rielabora le tradizioni tipiche di un epoca
Mischiando la saggezza alla pi? attuale scienza empirica
Siamo un paese di artisti brindiamo nei giorni tristi
Divisi tra arrivisti e altruisti
Ci calcoliamo i rischi e i possibili profitti
Che qui tanto una mano lava l’altra
E a chi vien dopo vanno i resti
Forgiati dai compromessi
Ci adattiamo ai pochi spazi concessi
Tra i vorrei e i se avessi
Vivendo spesso di riflessi
Seguendo meccanismi complessi
Per cui vorremmo esser diversi
Ossessionati dai mass media
Guardiamo con invidia il teleschermo senza un attimo di tregua
Dilaga la piaga della follia per la fama
E per un quarto d’ora in televisione la gente si sbrana
Tutti infottati con il cash e col business
Tanti stressati in cerca di nuove conferme
Troppo spaesati dalle logiche odierne
Prospettive moderne in cui ti ci trovi a fasi alterne
Viviamo una democrazia che definisco atipica
Il potere del denaro si ? comprato la politica
Ho la mia visione esplicita
Su chi governa e si giustifica
Rendendo ogni situazione ridicola
Siamo in balia della loro ipocrisia
Lasciamo che sia con l’occhio di chi pensa non sia cosa sua
Ce la viviamo con distacco e difatto
Lasciamo sia il tempo a decidere quello che ? giusto
Gir? cos? nel belpaese tiriamo la fine del mese
Tra contributi a fondo perso e spese extra
Conti sballati che danno in testa
E tu conti di riuscire col tempo a farti le ossa
Ogni proposta ? un testa a testa
E ogni trama gi? complessa
? ingarbugliata da una logica sconnessa
Noi qui a guardare senza illuderci
Facciam la nostra parte da comparse

Dance with me, pretty boy tonight
Dance with me, and we'll be alright
There's a whole floor before us, just for you and me,

I wanna Pool Pass To get in and look at you
I wanna Pool Pass 'Cause that's what I wanna do
I wanna see the flesh underneath your shirt
I'm goin' outta my head like Cobain comma Kurt
I wanna Pool Pass to get in and look at you
I wanna Pool Pass So our meeting can commence
But I guess for now I'll just wait outside this fence
Cause you're the girl that I wanna make
And I wonder if fries come with that shake
I wanna Pool Pass to get in and look at you
