1. _ Where Did Our Love Go?
Baby, baby
Where did our love go
Ah, don't you leave me
Don't you leave me no more
I've got this burning, yearning, yearning
Feeling inside me
Ooh, deep inside me
And it hurts so bad
You came into my life
So tenderly
With a burning love
That stings like a bee
And now that i'm surrounded
So helplessly
You know i believe
You wanna leave me
Baby, baby
Where did our love go
Oh, don't you leave me
Don't you leave me no more
Oh, baby, baby
Where did our love go
Oh, don't you leave me
Don't you leave me no more
You came into my life
So tenderly
With a burning love
That stings like a bee
And now that i'm surrounded
So helplessly
You know i believe
That you wanna leave me
Oh, baby, baby
Where did our love go
Oh, baby, baby
Don't you leave me know more
I've got this burning, burning, yearning
Feeling inside me
Ooh, deep inside me
And it hurts so bad
Baby, baby, baby
Where did our love go
Don't you leave me
Don't you leave me no more
And now that i'm surrounded
So helplessly
You know i believe
You wanna leave me
Oh, baby, baby
Where did our love go
Where did our love go
Where, where, where
Now that i'm surrounded
Oh, so helplessly
You know i believe
That you wanna leave me
Baby
Where did our love go
Where did our love go
Where, where, where
Baby, baby
Where did our love go
Oh, don't you leave me
Don't you wanna leave me
I've got this burning, burning, yearning
Feeling inside me
Ooh, deep inside me
And it hurts so bad
Baby, baby

2. _ Burning Boats
You trip and i fall
With my feet grounded i fall
Every time i take a step
And when i stand still
I fall
Chorus (x 2)
You stutter - i'm dumb
Blink, blink, blink - i'm blind
Strain your ears - i'm deaf
Bleed, bleed, bleed - i'm dead
Not even sunshine can show you (x 2)
My fragments of brilliance (x 4)
Graft them onto the muscle of your heart
Chorus (x2)
You stutter - i'm dumb
Blink, blink, blink - i'm blind
Strain your ears - i'm deaf
Bleed, bleed, bleed - i'm dead
Hair-tearing/gut-dashing/ cut cutting/hit-hitting flecks of
Soul-stuff/hit-hitting/hit-hitting
Powerless horrified (x 2)
Little lords of molten want
I rest, stare spared your powerless horrified in-trance
If it was nothing more we'd be on fire
Risking nothing you (x 6)
I'll risk everything (x 6)
You risk nothing (x 2)
I'll risk everything (x 2)
You risk nothing
Bruise every time you breathe, bruise every time you breathe (x 6)
I'll risk everything (x 3)
You risking nothing (x 3)
I'll risk everything (x 3)
You risking nothing - to fade.....

3. _ Persuasion
My supermarket trolley
Glides around the shelves
Of frozen foods
My supermarket trolley
Glides around the shelves
Of pre-packed goods
It rattles an accompaniment
To the droning from the speakers
When i knock a jar (checkout 5)
I stand and stare oblivious as it shatters
(will the manager please go to checkout 5)
Someone passes by
We near collide
She's silent but she's frantic
Can't figure out why she's bought so many useless items
(checkout 5, will the manager please go to checkout 5)
I can't figure out why i've bought so many useless items
(there is a problem at checkout 5)
I only wanted cigarettes
(will you investigate please)
I push my trolley further
(will you investigate please)
I glide around the frozen goods
Lost in here forever
Lost in here forever
Lost in here forever
Lost in here forever
Ever (ever)
My arms do things oblivious of my wishes and my orders
(there is a problem at checkout 5
Will the manager investigate please)
The frantic woman has turned white
A hand upon her shoulder
Buy (buy) buy (buy)
Buy more now
Buy (buy) buy (buy)

By the cheap impersonators
And i out run my limitations

4. _ Blond Boy
The boy with the young heart left the boy with the sad eyes
And went to the boy with the grin
Heart on his biceps, suffering another love
Could be the end of him
The blond boy
Blond boy
The blond boy
Blond boy
'82 in the president hotel
Just the blond boy with me
Bad blood, jacking off jism and blues
Cliff richard on the black and white tv
The blond boy
The blond boy
The blond boy
The blond boy
If the world don't get much better
We'll go and get a gun, hide it in our cellar
T'was then i knew that i'd rather be
With a .22 calibre next to me
Than the blond boy
Than the blond boy
Blond boy
Than the blond boy
The blond boy
Blond boy
Blond boy
Blond boy
I can sin all my life for god will forgive me
Can't seem to suppress cruel feelings within me
God will forgive me they taught me when young
So i do what i like and say sorry when done
Blond boy
The blond boy
Blond boy
The blond boy
We're always cruel to the ones we love
Always cruel to the ones we love
We're always cruel to the ones we love
Always cruel to the ones we love
Blond boy
The blond boy
Blond boy
The blond boy
Riverside drives, years before
Flattened up against the bathroom door
Said you were the one, well to hell i lied
Too many problems boiling up inside
Blond boy
The blond boy
Blond boy
The blond boy
It's an endless search, how you know that hell
When i saw you last year and you were looking well
No bad blood, fake love, no feelings for me
Sad, but that's the way it was meant to be
Blond boy
The blond boy
Blond boy
The blond boy
Boyhood in illness, adolescence on the rack
Didn't come this far to fall flat on my back
Boyhood in illness, adolescence on the rack
Didn't come this far to fall flat on my back
Blond boy
The blond boy
No no no no no no no no no no no no no!
Arghhhhhhh! hit me where it hurts!
Blond boy
The blond boy
Blond boy
The blond boy
Ha ha ha ha ha ha!

5. _ Christmas In Vegas
Well i just can't explain
The despair that i feel
As the wheel goes round
And round, round
Now i must return
To the city of steel
Put my feet on the ground
The ground, ground
In las vegas there are no clocks
The time goes slow, so slow
My futures mapped out in the cards
And i feel so low, so low
Now we're in the season
Of love and goodwill
But the wheel still goes round
And round, round
But there's love in my heart
Goodwill in my soul
I'm here on my own
There's nothing so lonely
As christmas in vegas
The lights of las vegas
Hold no magic for me
No real substitute
For the lights on a tree
One day i'll return
The city of steel
>from roulette and blackjack
And the spin of the wheel
At the table i see men's fortunes
Come and go and go
I've seen my future in the cards
And i feel so low, so low
Now we're in the season
Of love and goodwill
But the wheel still goes round
And round, round
But there's love in my heart
Goodwill in my soul
I'm here on my own
There's nothing so lonely
As christmas in vegas
I'm here on my own
So please won't you phone me
It's christmas in vegas
I'm so lonely
This christmas in vegas
Please won't you phone me
This christmas in vegas
I feel lonely
Won't you phone me
Now i need you
This christmas in vegas
Why won't you phone me
Wouldn't it be nice
If we'd both thrown different dice

6. _ Fun City
Fun city
I left my home
With a pain in my heart
Not a word of goodbye
To the ones that i loved
I'm taking a train
Away from the rain
To the lights and the smoke
I've got to find my own way now
Fun city
To the london experience
Fun city
To the london experience
Backward
Forwards
Wearing out the corners
Fun city
Here's my experience
Have no feelings
Have no sex
I wonder who to pick up next
Playland scandal
Pocket weighs you down
Machine handle
Goes down
I lose all my money
Trying to make a killing
Can't even make my fare back home
So this is fun city
Have no feelings
Have no sex
Wonder who
To pick up next
I tried to make friends
Tried to make amends
I sunk so low
That it's hard to climb out
I've nowhere to live
But i've so much to give
I found the hard way
What's life all about
Have no feelings
Have no sex
I wonder who to pick up next
I'm all alone
And i'm lost in this city
Being paraded
Feeling degraded
I wanted love
And i thought this was the way
But i'm only young
And i'm often this wrong
Have no feelings
Have no sex
Wonder who to pick up next
I have no morals
Have no innocence
I'm quite straight
Just playing for rent.

7. _ Two Sailors On The Beach
He wears in his heart
A fish from the china sea
At times one sees it crossing
Diminished in his eyes
Being sea man he forgets
Bars and oranges
He looks at the water
He had a soapy tongue
He washed his hands and was still
Level world hilly sea
A hundred stars and his ship
He saw the balconies of the pope
And the golden breasts of the cuban girls
He looks at the water

8. _ Cara A Cara (face To Face)
(english translation)
Full moon
The herd is in calm
No sun nor sand
Only night and beast
Sleeping in the fields
Begging to live
Passing so much pains
To carry on living
Black prairies
And a knife of light
Dare to earth
Of an andaluz boy
Bullrings of villages in fiesta
Looks for the opportunity
Under the sun of the siesta
Bullfights for what they give him
The poison
Of the fear and the courage
Blood, steel
He doesn't think in the worst
Face to face
The little bull and the boy
The dew will lick their bodies

9. _ Surabaya Johnny
I was only a child when i met you.
You came from the burma lagoon.
You said, "would you like a bit of travel?"
You promised me all but the moon.
I asked you what you did for a living.
And you swore, god's my witness, to me.
That you worked for the railroad people,
And would never ever follow the sea.
You said a lot, johnny.
Not a word was true, johnny.
You betrayed me, johnny
The moment we met.
I hate your guts johnny.
Don't stand there grinning
Take that cigarette out of your mouth, you pig.
Surabaya johnny,
Why did you treat me so wrong?
Surabaya, johnny,
My god, and i do love you so.
Surabaya, johnny,
Why am i feeling so low?
You have no heart, johnny.
And i do love you so.
At first, it was always sunday,
As long as i pleased you at night.
But only a few weeks later,
Not a thing i did was right.
Up and down we tramped through the punjab,
The river along to the sea.
But now when i look in the mirror,
There's a broken face that i see.
You wanted no love, johnny.
You wanted the loot, johnny.
But your lips, johnny,
I could never forget.
You asked for everything, johnny,
I gave you more, johnny.
Take that cigarette out of your mouth, you shit
Surabaya, johnny.
Why did treat me so bad?
Surabaya, johnny,
My god, and i love you so.
Surabaya, johnny.
Why am i feeling so low?
You have no heart, johnny,
And i do love you so.
I wish i had paid more attention
To that nickname of yours and the rest.
All along that bloody awful coastline,
You have been a notorious guest.
In a sixpence-a-night bed one morning,
I will wake to the thunder of the sea.
And your ship will be leaving the harbour,
And you won't even wave to me.
You have no heart, johnny!
You're a bastard, johnny!
Why did you leave me?
Can you tell me that?
I love you more, johnny,
Than the first night, johnny.
Take that fucking cigarette out of your mouth, you shit.
Surabaya, johnny.
Why did you treat me so wrong?
Surabaya, johnny,
My god, and i do love you so.
Surabaya, johnny.
Why am i feeling so low?
'cos you have no heart, johnny.
And i do love you so.

10. _ Black Mountain Blues
Down in black mountain
A child will smack your face
Down in black mountain
A child will smack your face
Babies crying for liquor and all the birds sing bass
Black mountain people
Are as bad as they could be
Black mountain people
Are as bad as they could be
They uses gunpowder just to sweeten their tea
Black mountain
Can't keep a man in jail
Can't keep a man in jail
If the jury find him guilty the judge will grant him bail
Got the devil in my soul
And i'm full of bad booze
Got the devil in my soul
And i'm full of bad booze
I'm bound for trouble
I've got those black mountain blues
There's a man in black mountain
Sweetest talker in the town
There's a man in black mountain
Sweetest talker in the town
He met up with my girl and he threw her down
I'm bound for black mountain
Me my razor and my gun
I'm bound for black mountain
Me my razor and my gun
I'm gonna cut him if he stands still and shoot him if he runs
Down in black mountain
They all shoot quick and straight
Down in black mountain
They all shoot quick and straight
And the bullet will get you if you don't dodge it too late
Got the devil in my soul
And i'm full of bad booze
Got the devil in my soul
And i'm full of bad booze
I'm bound for trouble
I've got those black mountain blues

11. _ Money For Love
As the noise of the city dies
The evening has arrived
With so many strange desires
So many lonely lives
Cards are placed
And ads are taken
Masks are dropped
And guilt forsaken
Names are changed
And other games begun
Eyes read into other eyes
At busy clubs and bars
And on the street as darkness falls
The cars they follow cars
All over telephones are ringing
Another evenings work beginning
Meetings are arranged
And deals are done
Get money for love
Money for love
Money for love
Money for love
Searching eyes and lonely faces
Looking for those soft embraces
Needing just a moment
Understanding
When you came to the city
You had dreams and you had plans
But life is just a vicious circle
Of bills and demands
You sit upon your single bed
You clear those problems from your head
You get yourself all ready
For another night
Money for love
Money for love
You know you need some of that
Money for love
Money for love
Money
Love
Money
Love
Money
Love
Money
Love
Money
Love
Money
Love
Money, money, money, money
Money for love
Money for love
Money for love
Money for love
Money for love
Money for love
Money for love
Money for love
You gotta get some
Money for love
You know you need that
Money for love
You gotta get some of
Money for love
You need some
Money for love
You need some
Money for love
You need some
Money for love
You gotta get some of that
Money for love
Money for love
Get money for love
I want some money for love
You know i need some of that
Money for love
You know i want to have some
Money for love
You gotta give me some
Money for love
Money for love
Give me some
Money for love

12. _ A Love Outgrown
When i was seventeen
I was chasing after dreams
In southport
I had to get away
Or end up in a nursing home alone
When i was seventeen
I had a special love
And southport
Didn't seem a bad place after all
On the promenade
The carnival facade is peeling
And the floral clock
Has stopped a moment caught in time
Such a sad decay
Well, it's something like the way i'm feeling
For such a dream so big
Southport seemed a little bit too small
And i was still naive
I really did believe in magic
Thought i had found a love
And treasured it above all else
But then i looked beyond
I saw another life was waiting
I was chasing after dreams
I had to find them by myself
I hope you understand
Such a love could never be
The sea has turned my soul
And it aches to be free
I will always think
Of southport at the fair
Summer on the beach
The fun that we had there
With southport in my mind
But las vegas in my heart
I set out to search for the stars
But every dream i dream
Follows where you've been
And it's tearing my heart apart
When i was seventeen
I left to find my dream
From southport
January came
I blame myself for out goodbyes
Nothing is so sad
As the sea side out of season
And nothing is so sad
As you and i
When i was seventeen
I was chasing after dreams
In southport
I had to get away
Or end up in a nursing home alone
And now it seems i'd never been
A boy of seventeen
In southport
It didn't last
A lifetime passed
A love outgrown
Was it all a dream
Or was it all for real
I'm standing on the pier
I'm trying not to feel
The tears are in my eyes
Your face is in the sand
I'm trying to look down
I'm reaching out my hand
I'm falling to the wind
I'm waiting for the sea
But the sea is never in
It's never in for me
In southport
(it's never in for me)
(repeat and fade)

13. _ Pirate Jenny
Ahh you people can watch while i'm scrubbing these floors
And i'm scrubbing these floors while you're gawking
Maybe once you tip me and it makes you feel swell
In this crummy southern town
In this pit of hotel
But you'll never guess to who you're talking
No
You'll never guess to who you're talking
Then one night there's a scream in the night
And you wonder: "who could that have been ?"
And you see me kind of grinning while i'm scrubbing
And you say "what she got to grin ?"
I'll tell ya
There's a ship
The black freighter
With a skull on it's mast-head
Will be coming in
You gentlemen say: "hey gal, finish them floors
What's wrong with you ? earn your keep here"
You toss me your tips and look to the ships
But i'm counting your heads as i'm making the beds
'cause there's nobody gonna sleep here tonight
No
Nobody
No-one
No-one
Then one night there's a scream in the night
And you say: "who's that kicking up a row?"
And you see me kinda staring out the window
And you say: "what she got to stare at now ?"
I'll tell ya
There's a ship
The black freighter
Turns around in the harbour
Shooting guns from her bow
Well you gentlemen can wipe those smiles off your face
'cause every building in town is a flat one
This whole frigging place will be down to the ground
Only this cheap hotel standing up, safe and sound
And you yell: "why do they spare that one ?
"why?
"why the hell do they spare that one ?"
All the night through with the noise and to do
And you wonder: "who is that person that lives up there ?"
And you see me stepping out in the morning
Looking fine with a ribbon in my hair
Well just look at me now
And a ship
The black freighter
Runs a flag up it's mast-head
And a cheer rings the air. hey!
My ??? on the dock is a swarming with men
Coming out from the ghostly freighter
They're moving in the shadows where no-one can see
And they're chaining up people
And delivering 'em to me
Asking me: "kill them now or later ?"
Asking me: "kill them now or later ?"
Noon by the clock and so still at the dock
You can hear a fog horn miles away
And in that quiet of death i'll say:
"right now !"
"right now !"
And they pile up the bodies
And i'll say: "that'll learn you.
That'll learn you."
And the ship
The black freighter
Disappears out to sea
And
On
It
Is
Me !

14. _ The Libertine's Dream
On a bed of silken sheets he lay his head
The pillow edged in gold and red
A palace in his prison walls
A feast for all, there's really only bread
Those walls shut out the world
Leaving him to conjure up his own instead
He dreams, he dreams, he dreams, he dreams
And dreams
A fantasy of sumptuous sensuality
His reality
Where only straw the more his mind hallucinates
Creates desire and fire
His thoughts pour out upon the page
His thirst is never quenched, never tired
He dreams, he dreams, he dreams, he dreams
And dreams
He dreams, he dreams, he dreams, he dreams
And dreams
He dreams, he dreams, he dreams, he dreams
And dreams
And dreams
He builds himself a fortress
Fills it with the lusty, beautiful and wise
Fantasy to fantasy
His kingdom is a playground for desire
And he the king within his walls
Deliberately locks the world outside
He dreams, he dreams, he dreams, he dreams
And dreams
He dreams, he dreams, he dreams, he dreams
And dreams
He dreams, he dreams, he dreams, he dreams
And dreams
And dreams
All the mind divine
A cornucopia of pleasure in his mind
But just a little sad for all these things he had
He waits and serves his time
With a wicked gleam he tastes his freedom
And sets out to realise
His dreams, his dreams, his dreams, his dreams
His dreams

16. _ Broken Hearted And Beautiful
Waves break over the shore, her heart breaks over him
Fickle love, faded fantasies, sweet dreams turning sour within
She touching 44 and he not so sweet 16
And though she loved him more it seemed this love had never, ever been
Oh, you know your still beautiful
<repeat 3 times>
Empty bottles on the shelf as time came to pass
(on the shelf your lonely heart)
She thought she'd find his angel face in the bottom of a whiskey glass
(thinking of him, fall apart)
Could've been his mother but she hoped she'd be his lover just for a little while
Freshened up he make-up, sighed, and tried to welcome middle age with a friendly smile
She leans to tattoo him with one long last kiss
Gee i never knew love could be like this
The smell of cheap gin laced with midnight cologne
The man on the t.v. calls kathy, kathy come home
Yeah, kathy come home
Waves break over the shore her heart broke over him
(the waves take your breaking heart)
She threw her memories to the sea and now it's just as if he'd never, ever been
(tides bring a brand new start)
Never, ever been
Letters and photographs, the tide has taken them far away, far away
She still looking beautiful and who needs him anyway? anyway.
Oh, you know your still beautiful
<repeat to fade >
Let the waves take your breaking heart
<repeat 3 times>
Your breaking heart
Your breaking heart

17. _ Deep Night
Lately i've been having dreams
Strange kind of dreams
Beautiful dreams
In the deep night
Sleep, an uneasy sleep
The real and the unreal
Hallucinations creep upon me
Deep night
In the deep night
Take a walk on the street
And the heat is making the neon swim
In the deep night
Police cars and sirens
Explosions and light
Sounds of passion
Guns and love
In the deep night
Deep night
In the deep night
I'll follow the moon
Over the hill where
Tomorrow still sleeps
The sky full of pearls
The streets full of girls
Who will understand
In the deep night
Lately i've been having dreams
Strange kind of dreams
Beautiful dreams
In the deep night
This night will never be through
Until someone can fill my time
And make me forget
The dreams i dream of you
I'm wishing each kiss was mine
And desire
Deep night
In the deep night
There's love in the motion
Love in the sound
Of the deep night
If love was an ocean
I would be drowned
In the deep night
I'm dreaming of being in love
Hold me in your arms
Hold me tight
I'm afraid of the dark
And the deep night

I don't mean to be bitter
But i'll hurt if you call
Telling me you landed on your feet, after all
Now your bedroom eyes are looking tired
My baby has your sparkle died
You smile
But all the while your heart
Hardens up
With a cry
You're good at living out a lie
You know you're giving out a lie
You're always living out a lie
You know you're giving out a lie
I kissed your mind
While on the run
Once more i've been too near the sun
You filled the role
And love was hot
I watch the tv
Weeping now
It numbs my passions
Sleeping now
Some opera shallow drama
Fills up my life
And i ask myself why
I'm good at living out a lie
You know i'm giving out a lie
I'm always living out a lie
You know i'm giving out a lie
The poison barely passed our lips
The words are threads
The truth that never should be said
Friends can go between
Each pouring fuel upon the fire
The spider weaves her web
Of honesty and lies
But i need the pain
To feel alive
A twisted reason
To survive
I'll say i hate you
And with all of my heart
I will try
Oh god
Its just another lie
Its just another lie
Its just another lie
Its just another lie
It wasn't always cruel like this
Our dreams were chiffon and cerise
But promises made off our heads
Were just like pissing in the wind

19. _ Love For Sale
When the only sound in the empty street
Is the heavy tread of the heavy feet
That belong to a lonesome cop
I open shop
When the moon so long has been gazing down
On the wayward ways of this wayward town
A smile becomes a smirk
I go to work
Love for sale
Apetizing young love for sale
Love that's fresh and still unspoiled
Love that's fresh and slightly soiled
Love for sale
Who will buy
Who would like to sample my supply
Whose prepared to pay the price
For a trip to paradise
Love for sale
Let the poets write of love
In their childish ways
I know every type of type of love
Better far than they
If you want the thrill of love
I've been through the mill of love
Old love, new love
Everyone a true love
Love for sale
Apetizing young love for sale
If you want to buy my wears
Follow me and climb the stairs
Love for sale
Love for sale
Hey hey hey love for sale

20. _ City Of Nights
In the city of nights
In the city of nights
As the lights go on there's a magic glow to the sea
But as we move through the streets we can feel the fear
As night goes on there's a tragic show in the city
Those songs are on the ebb and mixed with tears
And down the alleyway the drunks are fighting
Over who will have the last drink from the can
It all seems so romantic in the lying
But what a sad existence for a man
There's speeders, dealers, girls of easy virtue
Laughter, lies and lovers sparkling eyes
Glitter boys and girls out for the dancing
Good time girls and boys out for the highs
And there's a hotel on hope street
Where the concierge will understand your needs
She doesn't care your colour or religion
And she always has a room for you and me
In the city of nights
In the city of nights
There's an oriental flavour in the city
Marta haries, saris and sarongs
Incense candles, prayer and incantations
Golden girls arabia in their song
It seems the doors are closed on the asylums
And in the street they're putting on a show
Talking to themselves they get no answer
Or suggestions for a better place to go
In the city of nights
In the city of nights
A young man dreams of the open sea
In the year from no god knows where he'll be
No open door to set him free
No open door to set him free
Girls sell kisses to the lonely men
Boys turn tricks with the sleight of hand
Women fear to walk where men desire
Inspiration, hope and fire
Hey don't be a stranger
Make a friend don't let it end you
Hey don't be a stranger
There's a light burning in the city
In the city
In the city of nights
As the sun goes down there's a wind blowing through the city
A darker day as summer says goodbye
Another world is waking in the city
All live fears, important knowing eyes
And there amongst the litter and the debris
The sally army busking out a song
Drowning out the sound of breaking windows
Sing along, sing along, sing along
Come on sinners, yeah, yeah
Come on sinners
Come on sinners, yeah, yeah
Come on sinners
Come on sinners, yeah, yeah
Come on sinners
Discos, bringers
Discos, bars
Women, winners
Stiffs and stars
Kings and queens
And cabs and cars
Famous, you know
Who they are
Drugs and punks and
Tarts with heart
Corpses, candle
Works of art
Losers, loomers
Never hads
Groups and dreams
Of hope and fads
Passing fences
Phase and fads
Happy hookers
Lookers, fags
In the city
In the city
In the city

21. _ Sleaze
(sleaze)
(sleaze)
Lipstick marks on pint beer mugs
And love bites on the neck
Take me in your back room
And you pay for what you get
Diana dors all washed up
Dolores del rio
Hanging round the lowlife dives
And other zombie go-go's
Sleaze - can be very tragic
Sleaze - but i only see the magic
Sleaze - can be very flashy
Sleaze - it's at its best when trashy
Take it, shake it, fly with it
Do it, screw it till you're sick
Pull a trick, get a hit,
Love it till you're sick and tired of it
Sleaze
Sleaze (shake it)
Hanging round these back streets
Inner soho after hours
Feeling very used and i'm feeling very tired
Someone threw a party (shake it)
Someone threw a fit (take it)
Baby let me mambo with you a little bit
Mambo (mambo)
Mambo (and all those little spanish hustles) hey!
Did i tell you all my secrets (no)
About the things i did (i did?)
About people i went with
How they treated me like shit (that's right)
How you fell out of bed
And i had to drag you back in
Back into my life
Into my sleazy life
(sleazy life)
Hey
Hey
(shake it, take it)
Did i ever tell you i loved you (never)
That we could be so good together
Hanging out on the street together
Selling our meat together
Sleaze hey!
I love you
Sleaze
(the tinkle of the piano)
(it drags me under the table)
(in a slow sweet fuck)
Shake it, take it
Sleaze - can be very tragic
Sleaze - but i only see the magic
Sleaze - can be very trashy (trashy)
Sleaze - but it's at its best when flashy
Take it, shake it, fly with it
Do it, screw it till you're sick
Pull a trick, get a hit,
Love it till you're sick and tired of it
Sleaze
I've worn these rags for days
And now i feel just sleepy
All these looks and hooded crooks
Are making me feel creepy
A greasy greek is eyeing me
And making me an offer (ha!)
I take his bribes and cigarettes
Move on to find another (haha haha)
Sleaze - can be very trashy
Sleaze - but i like it best when it's flashy
Sleaze - hey
Sleaze - hey
Shake it (strange when [?] is a way of earning money)
Take it, hey (some are cruel, some are kind)
(all are necessary)
Take it, shake it, fly with it
Do it, screw it till you're sick
Make a hit, pull a trick
Love it till you're sick and tired of it
Sleaze

I'm 21 and i think i love you
Hey

22. _ You'll Never See Me On A Sunday
Don't worry about me as ever i'm fine
Promise you not to get too hurt this time
As you say, there's forever as time goes anyway
And that's ok, that's ok
But you'll never see me on a sunday
You'll never see me on a sunday
Beware that lifes leeches will drain you right out
As they're blind to the soul and they're always about
Look at me an example of the soul cut away
Well nearly, well nearly
And you'll never see me on a sunday
You'll never see me on a sunday
Oh you'll never see me on a sunday
And you'll never see me on a sunday
Your ablaze with your dreams and don't cry if you fail
Coz like me you'll keep searching for some kind of holy grail
As you say there's forever as time goes anyway
But you'll never see me on a sunday

23. _ Law Of The Night
The law of the night
Give yourself to the heat
Sacrifice yourself to the beat
The rhythm of love
The beat of your heart
Don't follow the rules
This love can be cruel
Come on now
Oh yeah!
The law of the night...
It's the danger you love
The danger you feel
The fear is your fuel
Excitement is real
The joy of the ride
Your heart at the wheel
Is your mind in enough confusion?
Feeling so free
Is all that you know
Your hand on the gun
With no-one to know
And all your desires
Have nowhere to go
You're in need of a love transfusion
Give yourself to the heat
Sacrifice yourself to the beat
The rhythm of love
The beat of your heart
Don't follow the rules
This love can be cruel
And you're lost in a passion of fire
As you climb between shadow and light
Just a slave to the rules of desire
You surrender to the law of the night
The law of the night
The law of the night
Is fueling you on
The flick of the knife
The draw of the gun
The thrill of the ride
While still on the run
No time to think of tomorrow
The glamour of violence
Deep in your soul
Your hand at the wheel
With nowhere to go
You're taking a trip
You're out of control
It's time for a transformation
Give yourself to the heat
Sacrifice yourself to the beat
The rhythm of love
The beat of your heart
Don't follow the rules
This love can be cruel
And you're lost in a passion of fire
As you climb between shadow and light
Just a slave to the rules of desire
You surrender to the law of the night
Oh yeah!
Alright!
Give myself to the law of the night
Oh yeah!
Alright!
It's the law of the night!
Give yourself to the heat
Sacrifice yourself to the beat
The rhythm of love
The beat of your heart
Don't follow the rules
This love can be cruel
And you're lost in a passion of fire
As you climb between shadow and light
Just a slave to the rules of desire
You surrender to the law of the night
Give myself to the law of the night
I'm gonna give myself to the law of the night
I'm gonna give myself to the law of the night
I'm gonna give myself to the law of the night
I need a love transfusion
I need a love transfusion....

24. _ Anarcoma
A stiletto scrapes the pavement
Leaving a red streak of paint
Breaks a sweat upon the sailors
To them she is a saint
Tattoo on the muscle
That says
'in love forever i'
She'll take them and she'll break them
Oh come hold me till i die.
Anarcoma, anarcoma, anarcoma
There's a ladder in her nylons
Where we can climb up to the stars
Join a queue of borsalinos
As you bend over the bar
Tattoo on her muscle says
'beware, behave, be mine'
She'll eat them up for breakfast
One at a time
Anarcoma, anarcoma, anarcoma
Well come on if you need loving
Pirondelllo don't be shy
It just takes a little money
And we'll get there by and by
For i've got a little more
Than any other girl
You pay a little extra
For a trip around the world
And if the world is not enough
Then i'll take you to the sky
Put you in an armhold
Blacken both your eyes
For you'll find no other woman
That will love you like i do
I'll just open up the oven door
And leave the cooking up to you
Anarcoma, anarcoma, anarcoma
And she took me to her room
That had never seen the light
Those sheets had seen a legion
And she beat me up all night
And over morning coffee
She shook her black hair from its mess
Her lips a gash of lipstick
And she sucks a cigarette
Anarcoma, anarcoma, anarcoma
I could be yours
You could be mine
You could be mine

25. _ Medley
Unchain my heart
Baby set me free
Unchain my heart
'cause you don't care about me
Everyday i call you on the phone
Somebody tell me that you're not at home
So unchain my heart
Baby set me free
Unchain my heart
Baby let me go
Unchain my heart
'cause you don't love me no more no-no
When i think i got you on my line
You tell me
Baby i don't have a time
So unchain my heart
Baby set me free
I'm under your spell
Like a man in a trance
And i know darn well
That i don't stand a chance
2
Playing
With little pictures that my mind sends
Counting the moments as my world ends
All i remembered are the bad times
And its chewing away at my insides
When you looked that way
Oh i knew you wanted to hurt
You killed all of my dreams
With your black, black heart
Breathing
All i remembered was your breathing
Heavy and low
As you told me to go
You became the figure in my bad dreams
I became the figure in your dark schemes
When you looked that way
Oh i knew you wanted to hurt
You killed all of my dreams
With your black, black heart
When you looked that way
Oh i knew you wanted to hurt
You killed all of my dreams
With your black, black heart
3
First you love me
And then you leave me
You get angry then reprieve me
I'll be happy
When you finally
Take my heart
I could let you
Come to get you
You would own me if i let you
But the worst is to forget you
Take my heart
But my crying
Is steaming all the windows
Flooding all the floors
You could hear me from here to who knows where
I'm gonna board up those windows
I'm gonna barricade those doors
'til you come and take my heart
Come and take me now
But my crying
Is steaming all the windows
Flooding all the floors
You could hear me from here to who knows where
I'm gonna board up those windows
I'm gonna barricade those doors
'til you come and take my heart
Come and take me now
Unchain my heart
Baby set me free
Unchain my heart
'cause you don't care about me
Everyday i call you on the phone
Somebody told me that you're not at home
So unchain my heart
Baby set me free
Oh baby set me free
Oh baby set me free
Oh baby set me free
Yeah

26. _ My Guardian Angel
Thank you, my guardian angel
Thank you, my friend
You've been there through my darkness
You'll be there to the end
You've dried my tears
You've given me hope
You've helped my heart to mend
Thank you, my guardian angel
Thank you, my friend
In times of deep despair
You helped me to pull through
If i am feeling strong
It's all due to you
You saved me once
You saved me twice
You saved me once again
Thank you, my guardian angel
Thank you, my friend
Sometimes we are fallen
And even angels fall too
We have to summon the strength
To help us pull on through
Sometimes we don't make it
Sometimes we lose heart
We need our redemption
We need a new start |
27. _ Jackal Jackal
I dived into the pool
The cool, the blue from heat
The sun breathes fire
On marrakesh
To burn the busy street
My brow the wet of fever
My throat the dry of sand
Through passageways to dead ends
A gauntlet of the hands
Jackal jackal
Rise of hackle
Row of tombstone teeth
Take me to the labyrinth
The palace of the thief
The shaking of the bus
The ragged boys a chanting
My temple pounds with sights and sounds
The stamping and the dancing
My body feels so dizzy
As cobra snakes unwind
Dark hands dart to my pockets
For anything they'll find
Oh let me lead you, take you feed you
To the hungry souk
Monkey grins and caiman skins
Eyes so wise
And smile so young
Jackal jackal
Rise of hackle
Row of tombstone teeth
Take me to the labyrinth
The palace of the thief
My face on the pavement
The grit deep in my skin
Arms around my shoulders
The grazing of my skin
And he watches the sun go up
He watches the sun go down
I dived into the pool
I dived in deep to drown
Jackal jackal
Rise of hackle
Row of tombstone teeth
Take me to the labyrinth
The palace of the thief

28. _ Exotica Rose
Exotica rose
Works the shows in the evening
Exotica rose
Works for dollars and dimes
Exotica rose
Nobody knows her secret
Wherever she goes men shout
"hey rose got the time?"
Exotica rose
Dances in beads and in satin
Tall and bejeweled
Don't be fooled by her mystery and spice
Her tangos fandangos
Her grace unmistakingly latin
You can buy her a drink
But don't think she's a girl with a price
Exotica rose
Exotica rose
Nobody knows
Nobody knows
When she powders her nose
Nobody knows
She's not exotica rose
And after her dance
In a dressing room dusty and dirty
She squints in the mirror
And tells herself never again
She's pushing an age that hits on the wrong side of thirty
She pulls off her wig
But the stain of the make-up remains
Exotica rose
Lives in a rented apartment
She's working all hours
To meet all the bills and demands
She's a girl with a difference
Or two in every department
Life isn't easy
With a wife and two kids on her hands
Exotica rose
Exotica rose
Nobody knows
Nobody knows
When she powders her nose
Nobody knows
It's not exotica rose

29. _ The Frost Comes Tomorrow
Weary of life you retired from the world
The voice in your soul that cried follow (follow)
Told you of treasures of silver and gold
Locked up in an heart that seemed hollow (hollow)
Secretly yearning to open the gate
To escape from your hurt and your sorrow (sorrow)
Painfully learning the cost of experience
Comes with the frost of tomorrow
You were always in a world of your own
At night leaving out food for the angels (angels)
You tried hard to capture them like little birds
You would keep them in cages forever and ever
Frightened by all that seemed golden and pure causing
All around you hurt and sorrow (sorrow)
Painfully learning the cost of experience
Comes with the frost of tomorrow
Resisting temptaion to unlock your heart
Living all of the time you could borrow (borrow)
Afraid to be free in a world without freedom
A life spent from to shadow to shadow (to shadow)
Once back in time in a white house of dreams
You hid all of your hurt and your sorrow (sorrow)
Painfully learning the cost of experience
Comes with the frost of tomorrow
Though you search all your life for what
Lay in your heart
And the treasure
The pleasure you follow
Painfully learning the cost of experience
Comes with the frost of tomorrow
Tomorrow, tomorrow
The cost comes tomorrow
Tomorrow, tomorrow
You're learning tomorrow
Painfully learning the cost of experience
Comes with the frost of tomorrow

30. _ One Big Soul
I'll be there in the summer sky
In the tears that you cry
I'll be there when the darkness falls at night
I'll be there in the snow and rain
Softly easing all your pain
I'll be there when you wake in the early morning light
We're the heart of one big soul
A very little part of one big whole
We're like a passing thought in one big dream
We're just a moment caught in one big scheme
Look around
I'll be everywhere
Look around
I'll be everywhere
I'll be there in your lonely hours
In the bird song, in the flowers
I'll be on your pillow in your bed
I'll be there in the words you say
When you work and when you play
I'll be in your heart and in your head
Because we're the heart of one big soul
A very little part of one big whole
We're like a passing thought in one big dream
We're just a moment caught in one big scheme
Look around
I'll be everywhere
Look around
I'll be everywhere
Look out at the dark now
Come on look out at the dark now
Yeah look out at the dark now
Look around
I'm in the fire that keeps you warm
In the pen that fills the form
I'm in the little habits that you do
In the very thought of you
Because we're the heart of one big soul
A very little part of one big whole
We're like a passing thought in one big dream
We're just a moment caught in one big scheme
Look around
Yeah i'll be everywhere
Look around
I'll be everywhere
We're all part of one big soul
We're all part of one big soul
You are me and i am you
Heart and body through and through
So look out at the dark now
Come on look out at the dark now
Look out at the dark now

31. _ A World Full Of People
Why can't i be on my own
Just me and the world alone
Oh why can't i be on my own
Just me and the world alone
Oh why is the world filled with people
It makes for a painful life
You'll disappoint me if you don't disappoint me
Come and dance with the tip of my knife
Why is the night filled with laughter
At expense of the sickest of jokes
While the world is a blot and it's cistern's fill up
On the dross and the shit we call folks
Why can't i be on my own
Just me and the world alone
Why can't i be on my own
Just me and the world alone
Oh why is the world filled with the people
They snear and they snide and they moan
And the way i am now it seems i am one of them
Having grudges of my own
And why is this street a-crawling with cockroaches
Insects with two arms, two legs
Leaving their stink and their filth and their debris
I'll break all their faces like eggs
Why can't i be on my own
Just me and the world alone
Why can't i be on my own
Just me and the world alone
Why can't i be on my own
Just me and the world alone
Why can't i be on my own
Just me and the world alone
Oh why is the world filled with people
A-choking the air with their breath
Grunting like hogs in the sludge and the sewerage
Cringing from wonderful death
Oh why do my ears have to ring with their bantering
Bitching and ignorant words
Giving me aches with pathetic opinion
People, it's fact, are insufferable turds
Why can't i be on my own
Just me and the world alone
Why can't i be on my own
Just me and the world alone
Oh why can't i be on my own
Just me and the world alone
Oh why can't i be on my own
Just me and the world alone
And i can't bear the little creeps
That tell me they hate my hair
They're always incredibly ugly
If they dropped dead tomorrow i wouldn't care
They feel that they have to comment
Have to put up with their penneth-worth
They're sick, hypocritical, mincing, unwitty
Not worth a spit in the dirt
They're not worth a spit in the dirt
They're not worth a spit in the dirt
Oh why can't i be on my own
Just me and the world alone
Oh why can't i be on my own
Just me and the world alone

You only live twice
Or so it seems
One life for yourself
And one for your dreams
You drift through the years
And life seems tame
'til one dream appears
And love is it's name
And love is a stranger
Who'll beckon you on
Don't think of the danger
Or the stranger is gone
This dream is for you
So pay the price
Make one dream come true (x2)
You only live twice (x4)
This dream is for you
So pay the price
Make one dream come true

33. _ Disease And Desire
Today i awoke
With a scream in my throat
The reminders of you
On the sheets
The print of a torso
Is this far as i know
That feverish hello
Another night of too much sleep
Disease and desire
Disease and desire
Disease and desire
Desire
Some wasting complaint
That was passed on by love
Gods little avenger
Smiles down from above
And i'd rather eat bugs
Than succumb to your love
And a kiss on the mouth
Is a mouth in the mud
Disease and desire
Disease and desire
Disease and desire

Watch this lowlife
Just look at you
Pouring out of your body
Like sweat they say
Reality breeds contempt
Contempt
Contempt
Contempt
Disease and desire

Disease and desire
Desire
No heaven up there
Oh nothing so nice
Just the puff in my mouth
Paralysed, paradise
And i'd rather draw blood
Than succumb to your love
And i'd rather give it all up
Than fall for your love

Attend the head of horns
The darkest of the angels
The thief among the thorns
Drinker of sweet absinthe

Keeper of the secret keys
To help me find my way
Gods beautiful love angels
Come to me in my sleep
To be my secret lover
To make me wilt and weep

Strengthen all my sighs
Make me sweat from frozen fears
To make me terrified

Kathiela (?), sinful angel
Kazalf (?), angel of death

Come to me in my sleep
To be my secret lover
To make me wilt and weep
Encircle all my tears
Strengthen all my sighs
Make me sweat from frozen fears
To make me terrified
Prince of the power of the air
Prince of the world
Tempt me through the serpent
A six winged seraphim
Arc-angel ruined
Thief of paradise
The schemer, belial
The first angel who sinned
Gods beautiful love angels
Come to me in my sleep
To be my secret lover
To make me wilt and weep
Encircle all my tears
Strengthen all my sighs
Make me sweat from frozen fears
To make me terrified
By the breaking of my thumbs
Something wicked this way comes
Then rang the bells both loud and deep
God is not dead nor doth he weep
Oh, how art thou falling
Angel of the morning
Oh, how art thou falling

35. _ Mamba
And tonight the look that branded me
Was like a pool of burnt out gasoline
Shiny brown skin like the melting tar
On a sticky summer road
Finger on the trigger
Words like bullets blast the brain
Nails a brittle edge of a breaking glass in a bar room brawl
Lay myself like a big jack rat
Limp and lazy on the sallow soaked floor
And now you're feeling sorry
Now i'm shattered sad and worn out
Ragged raped of mind and soul
Empty like an ashtray
Damp and dirty grime and grease
A broken hearted effigy
A bone cracked cranium face frozen about you
The cheap wine that you drown the million little devils in your brain
Stained your mouth and leaves a purple trail down heartache lane
To slash my sickly senses leaving me in my own hell
The silent sob of shaking shoulders as the candle drips and dies
Driving out the tear smeared figure that i used to know as you (you)
Your heel grinds out the cigarette stub you used to know as me
Take a sip out of the dirty glass that helps to glitter up your dirty little life
Loneliness may eat me up
Keep determined to survive this time
And skin like cocaine numb and yellow cut with poisoned pain
Feel so shot and shocked and shattered and shamed
But the hero and the heroine
That scars and helps me mellow out again
And close my eyes in ecstasy of cleaning out the decaying crimes
That are sinking me in self pity
Meet my eyes in fired goodbye
Like a flick knife in the chest
And just a tiny touch of you
So dark and damned and easy
Hope fallen the prey
To a thousand use and abuse 'ems
For i know that in the end the poison darts of hate
Will eat you up and will rise up
From the oily sea of my waxy lazy gloom
And stick the final pin that sends you in humiliation from the room
And i know you though you play marlene dietrich in the bar
Sinking slurring out of key like some jarred and jaded star
But the colour seems so faded fake fur that you surely are
Your much more blue than angel say goodbye to style and pride
As you show your heart with a naughty little organ
That beats out the number on the knees
The sensuality of the glorious diamonte dress
That hangs from your shoulders baring your bruised and battered chest
As you beat out the rhythm of the song
The rhythm on the flesh singing 'einen mann' qualluded deluded
Never never you and though you play at
Cat and mouse by giving me your whisky mouth
Remember that this little snake kisses you to kill
And i'll buy them all drink to toast
And charge the bill to you
You'll never see a faster mover dart in for attack
Slither shining
Danger a winding belt of black
Treacle runs from all your pores
The venom from the bite
Revenge is sweet and strikes just like a mamba every night

36. _ Insecure Me
It was the morning after the month before
And i'm looking like a nose with eyes
Take a trip or letter to make me feel better
Cos i know my mirror never lies
Have you ever had the feeling that your life's down the can
And the hand that holds the whip is not your own
Your breakfast's going cold and your routine's getting old
Is it me that's feeling insecure?
Hiding in the darkness where they can't see your eyes
In a naked city cinema
Watch the bodies rolling around on the screen
And nobody gives a damn who you are
You're surrounded by the bitter and the boring
And you wonder if you're on the turn
And again you get hurt when they're dishing the dirt
Is it me that's feeling insecure?
I haven't got time to worry about the future
When i'm busy covering up my past
Start to consider a tuck behind the ears
When i wonder if my looks will last
I could hit the bottle and the depths of despair
But come up fighting like the best
And i can tell myself that i'm winning the war
But then again i'm different than the rest
I'm not the hardest person in the world
But like the song says 'i will survive'
And i may be a wreck and a pain in the neck
But at least i feel that i'm alive
So i'll spit in your face and push you over the place
If i'm ever feeling so unsure
And you can really go to hell if you give me the soft sell
It's not me that's feeling insecure

37. _ The Gambler
On a dark night in a lost hour
In a town built from neon and chrome
Where las vegas seeks the desert
In an old broken down casino
There the gambler slapped his money down
Dirty dollars one hundred or more
Placed his last bet on a poker game
Crossed his heart for the winning score
But the players at the table
Two men of the phantom creed
Seemed to play with sombre purpose
Than a reason and pure greed
And the gambler felt his back freeze
And fear brushed his ageing brow
For he'd seen those men before in his dreams
Here they sat before him now
And the one smoothed back his black hair
With a comb slicked by brylcream and grease
Flipped the cards with a flippancy
Of a wily and slippery ease
With his sharp suit shade of lilac
On a shuffle he made the cards sing
Gold studs and menthol cigarettes
Rubies set in a skull ring
And the other of the clergy
With a colour and robe of pale ivory
Silver grey at the temples
And a smile that was stern and was kindly
Jack of hearts lead, wait for aces
Became faces of family and friends
Until the deck showed him a picture
Of his life from beginning to end
Reverend life he flipped an ace
And the gambler felt blood in his heart
For he knew this was the game of games
He would need all the reverend's heart
Anger, lust and gluttony
The gambler seems hit hard
Each failure and each feature
Mapped out in the slippery cards
Greasy mr.d. flashed a winning grin
And stood facing reverend life
The reverend paled as he saw the score
The gambler felt pain as a knife
His troubles, tribulations
Revelations and regrets
A wife, a child, a fight to trial
Turned by the hand of death
And the gambler saw his hand stained
With the blood of his family ties
And with the yellow smile of mr.d.
In his mind he crumples and dies
And these two great men from different worlds
Faced each other and shook of hands
The reverend shrugged "ah well next time"
And departed for heaven's land
And the flames leapt and the soul screamed
And the cards scattered round the room
And life is always a gamble
A game from the cradle to tomb
And the flames leapt and the soul screamed
And the cards scattered round the room
And life is always a gamble
A game from the cradle to tomb
And the flames leapt and the soul screamed
And the cards scattered round the room
And life is always a gamble
A game from the cradle to tomb

I feel real evil
You're gonna fight hard to get out alive
Real evil- beware people
All you hold dear brutalized

Bring me your troubles, lay down your head
Just leave all of your fears at the door

Gonna rain upon your little life

Just leave all of your fears at the door

When all of the while it divides

A thousand alternatives denied

She's a secretary in the daytime
A model beauty
At the typewriter
She's a secretary in the daytime
A smile at the boss

41. _ Dancing In A Golden Cage
I'm dancing in a golden cage
In the palace of a thousand joys
I'm standing on the street of love
In the city of a million dreams
Each sensation is a drug
Like a tiger running through my mind
Don't leave me blind
Take me higher, and...
Kiss me with fire
Kiss me with fire
I'm like a moth
Drawn to the flame
Of desire...
Give me hedonism
Give me hedonism
I'm swinging on a silver swing
And i feel i'm gonna reach the sky
I'm flying on an angel's wing
I'm sure in time i'm gonna hear them sing
I'm bathing in a candle light
Touching in the temple of the night
A reflection in a golden eye
Take me higher...
Kiss me with fire
Kiss me with fire
I'm like a moth
Drawn to the flame
Of desire...
You cannot touch
You cannot reach
You cannot hold
You cannot see
You cannot love
You cannot kiss
You cannot have
You cannot be
All that you want to be
Without the golden key, so...
Kiss me with fire
Kiss me with fire
I'm like a moth
Drawn to the flame
Of desire...
Kiss me with fire (kiss me with fire) (x4)
Fire
Kiss me with fire
Kiss me with fire
I'm like a moth
Drawn to the flame
Of desire...
Don't give me up (x4)
In your mind there's a flame burning
I am that fire
I am that fire
Kiss me with fire (x4)
I'm dancing in a golden cage
I'm swinging on a silver swing
I wanna hear those angels sing
Hear those angels sing
So come on, give me
Give me your fire
Give me your fire
'cause i'm, 'cause i'm like a moth
Drawn to the flame of desire
Give me hedonism

42. _ I'm Sick Of You Tasting Of Somebody Else
Tales
Talk about a bleeding piano
Right, this is a lovely little song now about the ups and downs of life
Come on
Come on
Go
I'm sick of you tasting of somebody else
I might do the same to you myself
It's so hard
It's so god damn hard
Living on a diet of liquor and pills
When the summer's long and the winter kills
It's so hard
It's so god damn hard
You come home drunk and you come home dead
Spreading somebody else all over the bed
It's so hard
It's so god damn hard
Tenement strung and your guy's well hung
A big gold chain and a silver tongue
It's so hard
It's so god damn hard
Jesus grin and a satan's skin
Make too much trouble to leave me in
You come home mad and you come home tired
Suicide and you're sick inside
It's so hard
It's so god damn hard
I'm sick of you tasting of somebody else
I might do the same to you myself
It's so hard
It's so god damn hard
But baby you ain't seen nothing yet
You cracked the mould before the jelly had set
It's so hard
It's so god damn hard
You've been out tramping the night before
Act sweet as an apple but you're rotten to the core
It's so hard
It's so god damn hard
With your sentiments stolen from a greeting card
You want me soft, you're gonna get me hard
It's so hard
It's so god damn hard
A jesus smile and a satan's skin
Make too much trouble to drop me in
You come home mad and you come home tired
Suicide and you're sick inside
It's so hard
It's so god damn hard
It's so hard
It's so god damn hard.....

43. _ Broken Bracelets
Libby's in the car
Choking on the fumes
Sprawled across a black piano
Hollerin' the blues
Morally low and dying slow
What a way to go go go
It's the little surprises i like in life
You know, like the way when you treat me nice
Love that's as rough as morning mouth
Open up the stitches let it all fall out
Home is side by side we lie
Love the lie we're living
Glamour and the tragedy
For playing and forgiving
Broken bracelets, broken dates
And half a bottle of heartache
( last two lines x4)
Frills and thrills the worlds evils
Knocking me off of the windowsill
Twenty million stories to not get to you
God i'm coming, hallelujah
Home is side by side we lie
Love the lie we're living
Glamour and the tragedy
For playing and forgiving
Broken bracelets, broken dates
And half a bottle of heartache
( last two lines x4)
Bee stung lips and beefsteak eyes
Kick mark hips and a blue back tie
(2 lines x2)
Repeat chorus
Broken bracelets, broken dates
And half a bottle of heartache
(2 lines x12)
Whoa.....yeah
You gave me broken bracelets, broken dates
And half a bottle of heartache

44. _ Gyp The Blood
And here i sit
A cowardly boy
Adventure only dreams
A captain of
A pirate ship
A million crimson themes
I wish to be
Content you see
To take the softer seat
To summon gut
To play the slut
My bass drum for to beat
Hey!
Gyp the blood
Gyp the blood
Anchor in my heart
Skull and crossbones to the breeze
A heave ho to depart
But it happened that
There came a ghost
To visit on my soul
I coloured him
From picture books
With eyes as rich as gold
A ghost who would
Embody
All my sickly frame would be
A hero
And a challenger
Of heart and spirit free
Hey!
Gyp the blood
Gyp the blood
Anchor of my heart
Skull and crossbones to the breeze
A heave ho to depart
And gyp the blood
And i retook
The world upon our backs
And we drank from dawn
To dusk
How the warm breeze took our drags
For we had the reins
On europe we
Had our anger like a flame
The balls to fight
The system
And the nerve to win the game
Gyp the blood
Gyp the blood
Anchor of my heart
Skull and crossbones to the breeze
A heave ho to depart
So purity
I would spit upon
All saintly sights be damned
For it seems correct
To kill and steal
To be a proper man
I find myself
Full up with hate
To lose it on the world
An eye for deeds
Of darker shade
And a lip so wickedly curled
A skull encrusted
Captains hat
Fell down upon my brow
I gathered all
My hopes and schemes
All wisdom for to know
And rip the shirts
I wore around
My shoulders like a robe
Dark ermine trim
And tainted grin
Grim warnings to forbode
And all the love within me
Would be churned for something sour
My angels tongue ripped from my throat
And tortured by the hour
For i have no time to learn
For love wounds me with its touch
May the gods take me a screaming
May the gods take me a screaming...
Gyp the blood
Gyp the blood
Anchor of my heart
Skull and crossbones to the breeze
A heave ho to depart
May the gods take me a screaming
May the gods take me a screaming...

45. _ King Of The Fools
Oh there he goes
The king with the wooden crown
A throne alone
He's looking so sad and alone
King of his world
He roams through his kingdom at night
It looks so good
Until it all fades into the morning light
Tonight's looking beautiful
Sad but so beautiful
Dark yet so wonderful
Hold your head high because
Sorrow becomes you, you wear it so well
Sorrow becomes you it's easy to tell
Though my heart always rules
I'll be king of the fools
Wearing sorrow with my crown of tears
Look at the world
Ruled by kings with wooden crowns
They are the fools
These princes with nothing to say - hey hey!
Sometimes i feel
Like a king with a wooden crown
It's a lonely world
When your dreams keep fading away
Tonight's looking beautiful
Sad but so beautiful
Dark yet so wonderful
Hold your head high because
Sorrow becomes you, you wear it so well
Sorrow becomes you it's easy to tell
Though my heart always rules
I'll be king of the fools
Wearing sorrow with my crown of tears
King of the fools
I'll be king of the fools
With my crown of sorrow
I'm king of the fools
Sorrow becomes you, you wear it so well
Sorrow becomes you it's easy to tell
Though my heart always rules
I'll be king of the fools
Wearing sorrow with my crown of tears
I dressed you in sorrows
I dressed you in blues
So my heart felt so hollow
My whole life was you
I'll be king of the fools
I'll be king of the fools
With my crown of sorrow
I'm king of the fools

I wake up blind each day by morning sun
I got nowhere to hide nowhere to run
You have the heart its chained shackled down
My crime is loving and now i'm bound to you
I got bruises on my soul
I got bruises on my heart
I got bruises on my soul
I got bruises
I wake up damaged each day no song to sing
Nothing to call my own you've taken everything
You say you love me but you seek someone else
It's time i started thinking of myself
I got bruises on my soul
I got bruises on my heart
I got bruises on my soul
I got bruises
I got bruises
I got bruises
I got bruises
I got bruises
I wake up deaf each day to help me through
Your lying teeth when you're saying i love you
The way you'll tie those chains'll break your heart
But now i'll take the pain and play the part
I got bruises on my soul
I got bruises on my heart
I got bruises on my soul
I got bruises
I wake up numb each day and i don't feel
The way you shook me when the love is real
One day you'll try to find a love that's true
I'm sure i'll end up loving someone who's got

47. _ Old Jack's Charms
It was in the tattoo parlour
Where he engraved their names
Words a winding round his shoulders
Reminders now he's older
In the magic of the parlour
Down his arm unwinds a story
Love and hate and mum and dad
In flames of hope and glory
A mermaid and a schooner
Tells us he was once at sea
A heart pierced by an arrow
Tells us once more in love was he
And a dragon spitting fire
He's forgotten what that's for
But tattooed on his mind
Is a reminder of the war
He gave up tattooing lovers
Where no room for any others
A line through every sweetheart
With another etched below
In every port a stormy girl
They loved him and they loved him so
Each one for all to see adorned
With cupids and with bows
A mermaid and a schooner
Tells us he was once at sea
A heart pierced by an arrow
Tells us once more in love was he
And a dragon spitting fire
He's forgotten what that's for
But tattooed on his mind is a reminder of war
In the magic of the parlour
Swapping laughter swapping stories
Where the words are often hard
And the air is always blue
He remembers all his mates from then
He lost a couple maybe ten
Their headstone on his forearm as a crucifix tattoo
Now he leans upon the bar
With a mysterious air
And the ladies gather round
To view his decorated arms
He'll tell them of each scroll and line
And other scars not so fine
And they always want to see
A little more of old jacks charms
A mermaid and a schooner ...

48. _ Night And No Morning
Night and no morning
Day and no dawning
And the tears that keep falling
Over me
Dream with no ending
Darkness descending
And the years that keep calling
Out to me
And soon comes the morning sun
Exposing my desires
And then my heart will die
My eyes will burn as i start to cry
Eyes that seem only to weep
Eyes that reveal a fear
Where should be only sleep
A fear tomorrow may find me here
I push my tired body on
In keeping the dawn at bay
Afraid of what i've become
Afraid of another day
And soft is the rain on my face
Lady night weaves her magic spell
Hiding that which i fear
The face i knew only so well
Night and no morning
Day and no dawning
And the tears that keep falling
Over me
Endlessly searching
My hunger returning
Loneliness burning
Into me
If i believed in god
I'd pray for the dawn to stay away
For as the dawn awakes
This light will flicker, flicker and die
Eyes that are hungry as mine
Eyes that are desperate as mine
We look and we recognise
Both seeing something we despise
My eyes have seen tomorrow
My eyes have seen the truth
The all revealing eyes
Eyes that once burned, burned with youth
Eyes will reveal what is true
Eyes that look deep, deep in mine
Eyes that belonged to someone i love
Those eyes belong to someone like you

Stalking your prey
In your eyes a hunger
Never fades
You strike at my heart
And your song of love
Is a deadly serenade
You're like the spider
Waiting in the shade
Your wicked charms
Will all display
I'm caught in your web
And your song of love
Is a deadly serenade
And your song of love
Is a deadly serenade
So beat your wings baby
(come on) don't delay
'cause you're the debt collector
And you're waiting to be paid
You're like a bird of prey
And your song of love
Is a deadly serenade
I love that song
Is a deadly serenade
And your song of love
Is a deadly serenade
I love that song

(sing me that song)
I love that song

Searching through the memory books
Of photographs your lovers took
Why play the game of place the pain
When you end up feeling just the same
Anyway...
Sleep comes so slowly now
So hard to keep the eyelids down
And you're hoping soon to drown the sound
Of a voice you know that whispers in
Your mind...
Oh, it was a sad, sad day
The day you turned away
And there was nothing in your eye
You had told me once you found it impossible
To cry...
I know you've been there and back
I've been there too
But it was never really deep in you
To do those things you had to do...
And in your sleepy bedroom eyes
I saw the signs
And i lay awake all night
In the cold
Until the light burned my side
And there was nothing
There was nothing anymore...
And there was nothing
Not a feeling
As you glanced back from the door...
Move away to find another place
That illustrates your point of view
Surrounded by the little things
That re-assure
That reflect you...
Ooooo and there was nothing
And there was nothing in my heart
And there was nothing in my head
The light in your eyes is changing all the time
And i still have your smile
Burned into my mind...

With your face staring at the wall
Playing with reminders of yesteryear
Persona that hasn't got a place at all
Your were in love with the caress of a camara
And i was in love with you
Now the mirrors' dimmed and cracked
Like your aura and your glammer
Make the legend
Easier to live through
And i once loved a smile
And i once dreamed a look
I collected your memories too
Now the eyes hold the flame
And the face holds the pain
As you try to live your legend through
And i once loved a smile
And i once dreamed a look
I collected your memories too
Now the eyes hold the flame
And the face holds the pain
As you try to live your legend through
It's so sad you never gave in smiling
Aging to an art
Wishing we could grow together
When we only grow apart
It's so sad you never gave in smiling
Aging to an art
Wishing we could grow together
When we only grow apart
Life behind the shades is a life all in the mind
With no place in the living at all
You die with the dreams and so it seems
With imagination's down fall
Keep up the whispers
Incite the adoration
That glows around the image of you
With a kiss to the screen
As you play out the scene
As you try to live your legend through
And i once loved a smile
And i once dreamed a look
I collected your memories too
Now the eyes hold the flame
And the face holds the pain
As you try to live your legend through
And i once loved a smile
And i once dreamed a look
I collected your memories too
Now the eyes hold the flame
And the face holds the pain
As you try to live your legend through
It's so sad you never gave in smiling
Aging to an art
Wishing we could grow together

It's so sad you never gave in smiling
Aging to an art

53. _ It's A Mugs Game
Oh god its another night
And your head is feeling
Like a lump of lead
You should never have drunk
Those party-fours
You should of been home being good instead
Ever been in a deja vue
And the end is the same again
You ran out of your silver thins
And you're trying to be so high class
Though you need a bath and your hair's looking like string
And though you're nearly broke you end up paying for all the drinks
And you tell them 'oh its nothing
There's a million where those come from'
And then you whisper to your longest-suffering friend
'please lend me a few quid'
Oh god it's another day
And your stomach's feeling
Like a blown-up balloon
You should never have eaten that greasy food
The doctor told you that chile was bad for your blood
And you're standing at the chemist in boots
Coughing up your guts like you're at deaths door
All this for a packet of do-do's
And the assistant gives you a wink and you turn bright red
It's at time like this that you wish you were dead
And you take the whole packet and you feel like you've drunk
A bottle of bleach
And you tell yourself 'never, never again
Well, not until next week anyway'
And you were never one for holding drink
And you stagger off to the toilet
And you throw up like it was christmas
And you miss the bowl and you hit your shoes
And there's no paper towels
Now what else can go wrong for you
It's a choice between a cab fare home
And a packet of cigarettes
So you choose and the money sticks
In the machine and the manager says
'tough shit - drink up and leave'
Oh god it's another disease
And you just got rid of the last
You were beginning to feel ok
And the friends you gave it to
Were speaking to you again.
And you find yourself having sex
In the back of a car
And the girl underneath
Doesn't care who you are
And you're nearly there
And she still doesn't care
And her chewing gum
Is getting stuck in your hair
And there's something wrong
Something that you forgot
Oh shit, you've forgotten the rubber
And you don't want a kid
Well, deny it was you
If your dad finds out
Then he'll make you stay in
And do your homework
And cut your hair
And wear your school uniform
Out in the street
Oh what a fate worse than death
Oh well he can't hit you
You can hit him back
And play your records so loud
All the ones that he especially hates
Deep purple in rock, led zeppelin ii
Well even you hate those
Well on second thoughts
I think i'll leave home
And go and live in america
Because they earn more money there
And they can get away with murder - yeah!
Oh this is a mugs game
I can't wait until i'm twenty one
And i can tell them all to sod off.

54. _ Her Imagination
She slips in and out of her dull imagination
That floats around the twilight of her tomb
Clutching her little treasures
That represent a happy moment
Displayed with sad affection in her room
But this life is a prison
And it hurts to hear the children laughing
While they live their pretty little dreams
And frozen all the while
Is a tearful bitter smile
Nothing's really what it seems
Nothing's really what it seems
Nothing's really what it seems
Like a silver little fool
You were standing at the alter
In the tides by the candles
As they burn
Pressed against the mirror
Playing all your favourite film stars
Ready for the camera
That would never, never turn
Push aside the curtain
Of your tiny garret window
And glare out on the narrow little world
You were in your wedding dress
Great expectations more or less
Playing with your dolls like any ordinary
Little girl
Candle light
Candle bright
Won't you light my way tonight
Candle light
Candle bright
Won't you light my way tonight
Now it's the futile bitter feelings
That clutch you in the middle
You were never really given a chance
And the spite that jabs your mind
Hides a heart that's really warm and kind
And the pulse that races with
Each other inquisitive glance
You were always the outsider
And they set you up a childhood
To be just another cuddly toy
And the whisper in the street
When the street corner gossips meet
The woman on the fourth floor
He was such a happy boy
The woman on the fourth floor
He was such a happy boy
The woman on the fourth floor
He was such a happy boy
The woman on the fourth floor
He was such a happy boy
Candle light
Candle bright
Won't you light my way tonight

55. _ Loveless World
Hello lover
Come in from the cold
Safe and sound from the loveless world
(at) times like these it can get too much
Selfish hearts
And kisses that barely touch
Cruel life
Just green and grief
To help a lover what's your belief
Is it all as you've been told?
There's no joy in a loveless world
No joy in a loveless world
Girl kills boy
And boy kills girl
Someone stole all the love today
Locked it up
Threw the key away
Tears are here to stay
Hello baby
You look so young
Uncorrupted smile
And your eyes shine wide
Vampire comes and he wants your blood
Young blood and your tender love
Cruel life
Just trick and take
Surely as your heart will break
Is it all as you've been told?
There's no joy in a loveless world
No joy in a loveless world
Girl kills boy
And boy kills girl
Someone stole all the love today
Locked it up
Threw the key away
No joy |
