2. Teenage Angst

Shine the headlight, straight into my eyes
Like the roadkill, I'm paralyzed
You see through my disguise
At the drive-in, double feature
Pull the lever, break the fever
And say your last goodbyes

Since I was born I started to decay
Now nothing ever ever goes my way

One fluid gesture, like stepping back in time
Trapped in amber, petrified
And still not satisfied
Airs and social graces, elocution so divine
I'll stick to my needle, and my favorite waste of time
Both spineless and sublime

Since I was born I started to decay
Now nothing ever - ever goes my way

 

3. Nancy Boy

Alcoholic kind of mood
Lose my clothes, lose my lube
Cruising for a piece of fun
Looking out for number one
Different partner every night
So narcotic outta sight
What a gas
What a beautiful ass

And it all breaks down at the role reversal
Got the muse in my head - she's universal
Spinnin' me round she's coming over me
And it all breaks down at the first rehearsal
Got the muse in my head - she's universal
Spinnin' me round she's coming over me

Kind of buzz that lasts for days
Had some help from insect ways
Comes across all shy and coy
Just another Nancy boy
Woman, man or modern monkey
Just another happy junkie
Fifty pounds, press my button
Going down

And it all breaks down at the role reversal
Got the muse in my head - she's universal
Spinnin' me round she's coming over me
And it all breaks down at the first rehearsal
Got the muse in my head - she's universal
Spinnin' me round she's coming over me

Does his makeup in his room
Douse himself with cheap perfume
Eyeholes in a paper bag
Greatest lay I ever had
Kind of guy who mates for life
Gotta help him find a wife
We're a couple
When our bodies double

And it all breaks down at the role reversal
Got the muse in my head - she's universal
Spinnin' me round she's coming over me
And it all breaks down at the first rehearsal
Got the muse in my head - she's universal
Spinnin' me round she's coming over me

 

4. Bruise Pristine

Means are right for taking, fade to grey
Trying to be ruthless, in the face of beauty
In this matrix, it's plain to see
It's either you or me

Bruise
Pristine
Serene
We were born to lose

Cast a line with a velvet glove
Reading like an open book, in the hands of love
In this matrix, it's plain to see
It's either you or me

Bruise
Pristine
Serene
We were born to lose

Encore...

Means are right for taking, fade to grey
Trying to be ruthless, in the face of beauty
In this matrix, it's plain to see
It's either you or me

Bruise
Pristine
Serene
We were born to lose

 

5. Pure Morning

A friend in needs a friend indeed
A friend with weed is better
A friend with breasts and all the rest
A friend who s dressed in leather

A friend in needs a friend indeed
A friend who’ll tease is better
Our thoughts compressed, which makes us blessed
And makes for stormy weather

A friend in needs a friend indeed
My Japanese is better
And when she’s pressed she will undress
And then she s boxing clever

A friend in needs a friend indeed
A friend who bleeds is better
My friend confessed she passed the test
And we will never sever

Day s dawning, skins crawling
Day s dawning, skins crawling
Day s dawning, skins crawling
Day s dawning, skins crawling
Pure morning, pure morning
Pure morning, pure morning
Pure morning, pure morning
Pure morning, pure morning

A friend in needs a friend indeed
A friend who’ll tease is better
Our thoughts compressed, which makes us blessed
And makes for stormy weather

A friend in needs a friend indeed
A friend who bleeds is better
My friend confessed she passed the test
And we will never sever

Day s dawning, skins crawling
Day s dawning, skins crawling
Day s dawning, skins crawling
Day s dawning, skins crawling
Pure morning, pure morning
Pure morning, pure morning
Pure morning, pure morning
Pure morning, pure morning

A friend in needs a friend indeed
My Japanese is better
And when she’s pressed she will undress
And then she s boxing clever

A friend in needs a friend indeed
A friend with weed is better
A friend with breast and all the rest
A friend who s dressed in leather

 

6. You Don't Care About Us

If it's a bad day, you try to suffocate
Another memory - scarred
If it's a bad case, then you accelerate
You're in the getaway - car

You don't care about us, oh oh
You don't care about us, oh oh
You don't care about us, oh oh
You don't care about us

If it's a bad case, you're on the rampage
Another memory - scarred
You're at the wrong place; you're on the back page
You're in the getaway - car

You don't care about us, oh oh
You don't care about us, oh oh
You don't care about us, oh oh
You don't care about us

It's your age, it's my rage
It's your age, it's my rage

You're too complicated, we should separate it
You're just confiscating, you're exasperating
This degeneration, mental masturbation
Think I'll leave it all behind, save this bleeding heart of mine

It's a matter of trust
It's a matter of trust
It's a matter of trust
It's a matter of trust
Because
You don't care about us...
You don't care about us...
You don't care about us...
You don't care about us...

It's your age, it's my rage
It's your age, it's my rage

 

7. Every You Every Me

Sucker love is heaven sent
You pucker up, our passion's spent
My hearts a tart, your body's rent
My body's broken, yours is spent
Carve your name into my arm
Instead of stressed, I lie here charmed
Cause there's nothing else to do

Every me and every you
Every me and every you
Every me...

Sucker love, a box I choose
No other box I choose to use
Another love I would abuse
No circumstances could excuse
In the shape of things to come
Too much poison comes undone
Cause there's nothing else to do

Every me and every you
Every me and every you
Every me...

Sucker love is known to swing
Prone to cling and waste these things
Pucker up for heavens sake
There's never been so much at stake
I serve my head up on a plate
It's only comfort, calling late
Cause there's nothing else to do

Every me and every you
Every me and every you
Every me...
Every me and every you
Every me...

Like the naked leads the blind
I know I'm selfish, I'm unkind
Sucker love I always find
Someone to bruise and leave behind
All alone in space and time
There's nothing here but what here's here's mine
Something borrowed, something blue

Every me and every you
Every me and every you
Every me...
Every me and every you
Every me...

 

8. Without You I'm Nothing

Strange infatuation seems to grace the evening tide
I'll take it by your side
Such imagination seems to help the feeling slide
I'll take it by your side
Instant correlation sucks and breeds a pack of lies
I'll take it by your side
Over saturation curls the skin and tans the hide
I'll take it by your side
Tick - tock
Tick - tock
Tick - tock
Tick - tick - tick - tick - tick - tock
I'm unclean, a libertine
And every time you vent your spleen
I seem to lose the power of speech
Your slipping slowly from my reach
You grow me like an evergreen
You never see the lonely me at all
I...
Take the plan, spin it sideways
I...
Fall
Without you I'm nothing
Without you I'm nothing
Without you I'm nothing
Take the plan, spin it sideways
Without you I'm nothing at all

 

9. Taste In Men

Come back to me awhile
Change your style again
Come back to me awhile
Change your taste in men
It's been this way since Christmas Day
Dazzled, doused in gin
Change your taste in men

Come back to me awhile
Change your style again
Come back to me awhile
Change your taste in men
I'm killing time on Valentine's
Waiting for the day to end
Change your taste in men
Come back to me awhile
Change your style again
Come back to me awhile
Change your taste in men
It's been this way since Christmas Day
Dazzled, doused in gin
Change your taste in men (repeat)

 

10. Slave To The Wage

Run away from all your boredom
Run away from all your whoredom
And wave your worries
And cares, goodbye
All it takes is one decision
A lot of guts
A little vision
To wave your worries
And cares goodbye
It's a maze for rats to try
It's a maze for rats to try
It's a race, a race for rats
A race for rats to die
It's a race, a race for rats
A race for rats to die
Sick and tired of Maggie's farm
She's a bitch, with broken arms to wave
Your worries and cares goodbye
It's a maze for rats to try
It's a maze for rats to try
It's a race, a race for rats
A race for rats to die
It's a race, a race for rats
A race for rats to die
Run away
(repeat)

 

11. Special K

Coming up beyond belief
On this coronary thief
More than just a leitmotif
More chaotic, no relief
I'll describe the way I feel
Weeping wounds that never heal
Can this savior be for real
Or are you just my seventh seal?

No hesitation, no delay
You come on just like special K
Just like I swallowed half my stash
I never ever want to crash
No hesitation, no delay
You come on just like special K
Now you're back with dope demand
I'm on sinking sand

Gravity
No escaping gravity
Gravity
No escaping, not for free
I fall down
Hit the ground
Make a heavy sound
Every time you seem to come around

I'll describe the way I feel
You're my new Achilles’ heel
Can this savior be for real?
Or are you just my seventh seal?
No hesitation, no delay
You come on just like special K
Just like I swallowed half my stash
I never ever want to crash
No hesitation, no delay
You come on just like special K
Now you're back with dope demand
I'm on sinking sand

Gravity
No escaping gravity
Gravity
No escaping, not for free
I fall down
Hit the ground
Make a heavy sound
Every time you seem to come around
No escaping gravity
No escaping gravity
No escaping gravity
No escaping gravity
Gravity, gravity, gravity, gravity

 

12. Black-Eyed

I was never faithful
And I was never one to trust
Borderlining schizo
And guaranteed to cause a fuss

I was never loyal
Except to my own pleasure zone
I'm forever black-eyed
A product of a broken home

I was never faithful
And I was never one to trust
Borderline bipolar
Forever biting on your nuts

I was never grateful
That's why I spend my days alone
I'm forever black-eyed
A product of a broken home
Broken home

Black-eyed
Black-eyed
Black-eyed
Black-eyed
Black-eyed
Black-eyed
Black-eyed
Black-eyed

I was never faithful
And I was never one to trust
Borderlining schizo
And guaranteed to cause a fuss

I was never loyal
Except to my own pleasure zone
I'm forever black-eyed
A product of a broken home
Broken home

Black-eyed
Black-eyed
Black-eyed
Black-eyed
Black-eyed
Black-eyed
Black-eyed
Black-eyed

Black-eyed, broken home
Black-eyed, broken home
Black-eyed, broken home
Black-eyed, broken home

 

13. The Bitter End

Since we're feeling so anesthetized
In our comfort zone
Reminds me of the second time
That I followed you home
We're running out of allibies
From the second of May
Reminds me of the summer time
On this winter's day

See you at the bitter end
See you at the bitter end

Every step we take that's synchronized
Every broken bone
Reminds me of the second time
That I followed you home
You shower me with lullabies
As you're walking away
Reminds me that it's killing time
On this fateful day

See you at the bitter end
See you at the bitter end
See you at the bitter end
See you at the bitter end

From the time we intercepted
Feels alot like suicide
Slow and sad, going sadder
Arise a sitting mine

(See you at the bitter end)

I love to see you run around
And I can see you now
Running to me
Arms wide out

(See you at the bitter end)

Reach inside
Come on just gotta reach inside
Heard your cry
Six months time
Six months time
Prepare the end

See you at the bitter end

 

14. This Picture

I hold an image of the ashtray girl
Left cigarette burns on my chest
I wrote a poem that described our world
And put our friendship to the test
And late at night while I was on all fours
She used to watch me kiss the floor
What's wrong with this picture?
What's wrong with this picture?

Farewell the ashtray girl
Forbidden snowflake
Beware this troubled world
And watch out for earthquakes
Goodbye to open sores
To broken semaphore
You know we miss her
We miss her picture

Sometimes it's faded
Disintegrated
The fear of growin’ old
Sometimes it's faded
Assassinated
The fear of growin’ old

Farewell the ashtray girl
Angelic fruitcake
Beware this troubled world
Control your intake
Goodbye to open sores
Goodbye and furthermore
You know we miss her
We fuckin’ miss her picture

Sometimes it's faded
Disintegrated
The fear of growin old
Sometimes it's faded
Assassinated
The fear of growin old

We hang on
Though we try
It's gone

Sometimes it's faded
Disintegrated
The fear of growin’ old
Sometimes it's faded
Assassinated
The fear of growin’ old

You can't stop growin’ old
You can't stop growin’ old
You can't stop growin’ old
You can't stop growin’ old

 

15. Special Needs

Remember me when you're the one whose silver screened
Remember me when you're the one you'd always dreamed
Remember me whenever noses start to bleed
Remember me special needs

Just nineteen a sucker's dream
I guess I thought you had the flavor
Just 19 and dream obscene
With Six months off for bad behavior

Remember me when you clinch your movie deal
And think of me stuck in my chair that has four wheels
Remember me through flash photography and screens
Remember me special dreams

Just nineteen a sucker's dream
I guess I thought you had the flavor
Just 19 and dream obscene
With Six months off for bad behavior

Just nineteen a sucker's dream
I guess I thought you had the flavor
Just nineteen a dream it seemed
Six months off for bad behavior

Remember me
Remember me

 

16. English Summer Rain

Always stays the same
Nothing ever changes
English summer rain
Seems to last for ages

Always stays the same
Nothing ever changes
English summer rain
Seems to last for ages

I'm in the basement
You're in the sky
I'm in the basement baby
Drop on by
I'm in the basement
You're in the sky
I'm in the basement baby
Drop on by

Hold your breath and count to ten
And fall apart and start again
Hold your breath and count to ten
Start again start again
Hold your breath and count to ten
And fall apart and start again
Start again
(repeat)

 

17. Protege Moi

C'est le malaise du moment,
L'epidemie qui s'etend,
La fete est finie, on descend,
Les pensees qui glacent la raison.

Paupieres baissees, visages gris,
Surgissent les fantomes de notre lit;
On ouvre le loquet de la grille
Du taudis qu'on appelle maison.

Protect me from what I want
Protect me from what I want
Protect me from what I want
Protect me, protect me

Protege-moi, protege-moi
Protege-moi, protege-moi
Protege-moi, protege-moi
Protege-moi, protege-moi

Sommes-nous les jouets du destin
Souviens-toi des moments divins
Planant, eclates au matin,
Et maintenant nous sommes tout seuls.

Perdus les reves de s'aimer,
Le temps ou on avait rien fait,
Il nous reste toute une vie pour pleurer
Et maintenant nous sommes tout seuls.

Protect me from what I want
Protect me from what I want
Protect me from what I want
Protect me, protect me

Protect me from what I want
(Protege-moi, protege-moi)
Protect me from what I want
(Protege-moi, protege-moi)
Protect me from what I want
(Protege-moi, protege-moi)
Protect me, protect me

Protege-moi, protege-moi
Protege-moi de mes desirs

Protege-moi, protege-moi
Protege-moi, protege-moi

Protect me from what I want
Protect me from what I want
Protect me from what I want
Protect me, protect me

(Protect me) Protect me from what I want
(Protect me) Protect me from what I want
(Protect me) Protect me from what I want

Protect me, protect me

(Protect me) Protect me from what I want
(Protect me) Protect me from what I want
(Protect me) Protect me from what I want

Protect me, protect me

Protege-moi, protege-moi

 

18. I Do

I wanna be much more like you
Your effortlessly graceful scene
That drips from every pore of you
Where logic cannot intervene
I wanna take a bath with you
And wash the chaos from my skin
I wanna fall in love with you
So how do we begin?

I wanna be a girl like you
The way you swing your hips in jeans
I wanna wear my face like you
Shiseido, MAC and Maybeline
I wanna paint the town with you
And tickle you until you scream
I wanna fall in love with you
I wanna say I do
I wanna say I do
I wanna say I do
I wanna say I do
I wanna say I do

I wanna be much more like you
The way your smile lights up the room
I'll kick back as men flirt with you
Till Jealously I'll stay in you
This confidence in me and you
This hope that you and I will bloom
I wanna fall in love with you
I wanna say I do
I wanna say I do
I wanna say I do
I wanna say I do
I wanna say I do

The question is do you?

 

19. Twenty Years

There are twenty years to go
And twenty ways to know
Who will wear
Who will wear the hat

There are twenty years to go
The best of all i hope
Enjoy the ride
The medicine show

And thems the breaks
For we designer fakes
We need to concentrate on more than meets the eye

There are twenty years to go
The faithful and the low
The best of starts
The broken heart, the stone

There are twenty years to go
The punch drunk and the blow
The worst of starts
The mercy part, the phone

And themes the breaks
For we designer fakes
We need to concentrate on more than meets the eye

Themes the breaks
For we designer fakes
But it’s you I take it's you’re the
Truth, not I

There are twenty years to go
A golden age I know
But all will pass
Will end too fast, you know

There are twenty years to go
And many friends I hope
Though some may hold the rose
Some hold the rope

And that’s the end and that’s the start of it
That’s the whole and that’s the part of it
That’s the high and that’s the heart of it
That’s the long and that’s the short of it
That’s the best and that’s the test in it
That’s the doubt, the doubt, the trust in it
That’s the sight and that’s the sound of it
That’s the gift and that’s the trick in it

You’re the truth, not I (x8)
