Go 2

I spoke to your boss this morning
He asked why you weren't home?
I said sir they left without warning
You won't even get them on the telephone

They're in beatown, it's a capital city and all roads lead to
Beatown, beatown

I spoke to your owner this lunchtime
He asked why you weren't home?
I said they thought it was hunchtime
You won't even see them standing on their own

Beatown, it's a capital city and all roads lead to
Beatown, beatown

He says he wants his money back sir
He says you're all communists sir
I said they beat you fair and square sir
They use the head, and not the fist

Beatown, beatown

Woolworth beauty
Factory beau
Arm in arm
They must go
To the church of dance with the light on low

Meccanic dancing oh we go
Can't wait until the weekend comes
I want to be with all my chums

Alcohol is an easy key
Helps you unwind
And dance with me
To a disco trot from germany

I'm standing in front of this girl
I'm under a flourescent light
I've had a few beers inside me
I feel like a giant tonight

I dunno wot she got
I dunno wot she got
I dunno what she got but it seems to have a grip upon me
No telling where she learn the things she do to me
And i don't know what she done wrong but i want to hurt her

(wanna) take it out on her
Take it out on her
Take it out on her
With my weapon

She's so exacting that she tells me when i go wrong
She doesn't value the attention she receives
She says i'm taking all the time but i'm not returning
(that's right)

'do this' but she won't do that
Lying beside me like a parcel of fat
Hot love - cold sweat - feel her beneath me wanna crush her to death
She tries to justify the people who despise me
She puts her finger on things she knows will hurt
And i can't defend myself till we turn the lights off then

I dunno wot she got - my weapon
My stinking weapon

Battery brides, ha ha have you ever tried
To break out of your waiting room
And find yourself a waiting groom
Ba ba ba ba battery brides
Ba ba ba ba battery brides

She left school with a million others
And worked in a store part time
She dreams of a husband and a lover
Doesn't realise she's on the production line of ...

Across a crowded room
I first set eyes on you
My vision was impaired
Obstructed out of view

By those - faces in a crowded room
Them - bodies in a crowded room
Their - breathing in a crowded room
And their - pushing me out
Down the fire escape

In the crowded room i won't touch too much
I felt the punch of a punch
The language was enough
To send me running etc.

He makes a beeline for the place
Where he gets his only ace
Sometimes he's standing in the rain
Oh gene kelly's hat and cane

He has the rhythm in his head
He has the rhythm, sing!

It's chaotic at the bar
B & o those sweaty drops
We are all mesmorized
To the thing we have inside

Inside, outside, eastside, west
We kill the beast
Yourside, myside, worlds collide, yes
We kill the beast
