 Beat Crazy » The lyrics [+ Bæta við +] |
1. _ Fit
Don't laugh - but there are people in this world
Born as boys - and fighting to be girls
People standing in their way
Some are straight and some are gay
Calling them the drag queens
Say you can't be one of us
You only have yourself to blame
You don't fit
Don't laugh - but there are people in this town
Be polite say a whiter shade of brown
People that they gotta fight
Some are black and some are white
Calling them the half-breeds
Say you can't be one of us
You only have yourself to blame
You don't fit
That's what you're there for - square pegs in square holes
Round pegs in round
You get too big then they can't make new holes
So they'll cut you down
All ugly sisters must wear glass slippers
Or get out of town
But don't cry - if the people in your street
Lead a life that's more or less complete
Little problems every day
Little problems go away
Kid yourself you're fighting for life
Kid yourself you fight for love
But maybe in some other lifetime
You won't fit
And if you don't fit
You're fit for nothing at all

2. _ Biology
Hello - i'm back again
Haven't seen you since i don't know why
It's been so long - but you seem so cold
Is it something you've been told
She said
So this is what you think of me
Going with some whore somewhere out in germany
I said baby
Baby can't you see
It's nothing to do with you and me
Nothing to do with my heart
Nothing to do with my head
Nothing to do with our home
Nothnig to do with our bed
It's just b-i-o-l-o-g-y
Can't you see
It's just biology
Biology - coming in between you and me
Your biology lesson starts here
And first of all i would make it clear
That the species known as males
Have these little white things with little white tails
Which
Multiply and start to shout
It's getting crowded down here - let us out
Once relieved - they start again
It's not a process controlled by the brain
Nothing to do with their hearts
Nothing to do with their heads
Nothing to do with their homes
Nothing to do with their beds
It's just b-i-o-l-o-g-y
Can't you see
It's just biology
Biology - coming in between you and me
She said thanks - i'm so relieved
What your saying i can well believe
Now i know, i feel no shame
About dave and tony and phil and james
I said
Baby baby this can't be true
She said well what's right for you
Has to be
Right for me
In any case i'm sure you'll see
It's nothing to do with our hearts
It's nothing to do with our heads
It's nothing to do with our homes
It's nothing to do with our beds
It's just b-i-o-l-o-g-y
Can't you see
It's just biology
Biology - coming in between you and me

3. _ The Evil Eye
People say there's no such thing as voodoo
I don't know why
People say there's no such thing as love
I got a job in s.e. 15
And after tax my wage is 16
July the 17th i'll be 18
I don't think i'll live till 19
People say i'm looking so much older than what i am
People laugh at me when i say why
I'm being watched
By the evil eye
Working for a man who wears a straw hat and never smiles
And an apron striped and splashed with blood
I stack a pig's head on the shelf
The boss comes along and says move yourself
I can't move i'm hypnotized
Staring into a dead pig's eyes
I turn around and all i see is ladies
With shopping bags
Staring at me trying to read my mind
And i'm being watched
By the evil eye
And i'm being watched
By the evil eye
(walking home - on my own
Standing on the bus stop- crossing the road
I'm being followed - 'cause i can feel
Someone's breath on my neck
Someone's toe on my heel . . .)
Gotta keep on walking
I can't stop now - i've come too far
Wait till i get home and lock the door
I got the candles burning low
I got the cramps on the stereo
I got the doll now i can start
With a pin right trough the heart
I got dolls with straw hats
I got ladies with shopping bags
They'll be sorry they crossed me tonight
Now they're being watched
By the evil eye
Being watched
By the evil eye

4. _ Mad At You
When you're fixing your make-up
You know you take too long
And when you mix me a drink up
You know you mix it too strong
And when you fix me a breakfast
You know you fix it too late
With the wrong kind of egg-cup
And the wrong kind of plate
But honey look at your eyes
You got the innocent eyes
And now you're asking me why
I'm mad at you
Mad at you
So come on what's your problem
You know we'll miss half the show
How come i'm walking so fast
How come your walking so slow
After fixing your make-up
For an hour and a half
You say your new shoes are hurting
And you expect me to laugh
But honey look at your eyes
You got the innocent eyes
And now you're asking me why
I'm mad at you
Mad at you

5. _ Someone Up There
We walked out one autumn evening
Someone up there made a fair appear
Coloured light that caught our eyes
And reggae music caught our ears
We laughed as they played all the songs
We wanted least of all to hear
I guess that's when i knew
That we'd be more than just good friends
It happened just by chance
Someone up there - someone up there makes the sun and sea
Someone up there - someone up there brought my girl to me
Someone up there - someone up there makes the wind and rain
Someone up there - someone up there took her back again
And just for once
You can't fight back
No messing with the hand of fate
Oh no
The paper ran an ad
That had you running to the other side of town
Working for a man i never could make out
Who started hanging round
Someone up there got me drinking got me drunk
And made me put him down
The way you looked at me i knew
That we'd be coming to an end
It happened just by chance
Someone up there - someone up there makes the sun and sea
Someone up there - someone up there brought my girl to me
Someone up there - someone up there makes the wind and rain
Someone up there - someone up there took her back again
And just for once
You can't fight back
No messing with the hand of fate
Oh no

6. _ Battleground
Black nigger white nigger standing in the dark
Listen to the rhythm of the bass boom
Black nigger takes a hit sending up a spark
In the dark heat
Swaying a little to the bass beat
White nigger takes a hit takes money out
Says this is what it's all about
Rots your brain - who cares
Black nigger stares
White nigger sighs
I like your music
I like your style
I crack a joke so why don't you smile
White nigger dancing out on the floor tonight
The band's not good but the beat seems right
The band's all black and the floor's all white
Clenching fists unite and fight
Rock agianst racism rules tonight
But in the real world
No-one rules
But fists are clenched all right
Down in the underground
Out in the playground
The common ground
Is a battleground
Now you don't have to be black to be a nigger no more
The writing's on the wall
Say - black is power
White is flower
Diveded we fall
And behind the wall
Behind the door,
In the dark heat
In the rhythm of the bass beat
Something is wrong
And no-one is taking the blame

7. _ Crime Don't Pay
I got drunk with a real nice guy last night
In a mood to talk or fight
And he said, what's the matter
You don't look like you do so bad
I said i just been taking for everything i had
Someone took a fancy to my wallet
And my coat
So what you smiling at - ain't you been in that boat
It's something that there really should be
Something done about
He said don't knock it sonny
That's the way i started out
And now i got a nice suit
I got a nice car
It's been a nice day
Don't tell me that crime don't pay
Okay

8. _ One To One
Tried to call you yesterday
But you were at the monday club
Or a communist demonstration
Who cares
You're going somewere everyday
Vegetarians against the klan
Every woman against every man
Never
One to one
What's wrong
What's wrong with one to one
Just once
Just me and you
'cause one to one is real
And you can't hide, just feel
That three's a crowd
I agree with what you say
But i don't wanna wear a badge
I don't wanna wave a banner like you
Though i don't mind it if you do
You're beautiful when you get mad
Or is that a sexist observation
Or
One to one
What's wrong
What's wrong with one to one
Just once
Just me and you
'cause one to one is real
And you can't hide, just feel
That three's a crowd

9. _ Beat Crazy
Kids today - they're all the same
All call themselves - some crazy name
All those drugs - they can't be sane
All that noise - affects their brains
And it's such a crime
How they waste their time
They can't get nowwhere
They've all gone beat crazy
Beat crazy
They say the world - is in a mess
But they can talk - the way they dress
Can't get no jobs - can't get no careers
With safety pins - stuck through their ears
And it's such a crime
How they waste their time
They can't get nowwhere
They've all gone beat crazy
Beat crazy
And if the russians ever come
They'll all be beating bongo drums
So who'll defend - in world war iii
Where could we turn - where would they be
And it's such a crime
How they waste their time
They can't get nowwhere
They've all gone beat crazy
Beat crazy

10. _ In Every Dream Home (a Nightmare)
The guy who lives upstairs
Is an actor so they say, or maybe worse
They say he changed his name
'cause someone with the same name made it first
His girlfriend come to stay
We hear her screams and think that they rehearse
So maybe it's a play
Or maybe someone's really getting hurt
Look round every home town
Every nice house - every fair deal
Every good job - every square meal
In every dream home
A nightmare
The girl who lives next door
Is a model so they say though i'm not sure
She never seems to work
Though clothes she wears suggest that she's not poor
She seems to be well known
With man friends always coming to her door
But they don't look her type
And she don't look the type to be a whore
Look round every home town
Every nice house - every fair deal
Every good job - every square meal
In every dream home
A nightmare
