shakedown 1979, cool kids never have the time/ on a live wire right
up off the street/ you and i should meet/ junebug skipping like a stone/
with the headlights pointed at the dawn/ we were sure we'd never see an
end to it all/ and i don't even care to shake these zipper blues/ and we
don't know/ just where our bones will rest/ to dust i guess/ forgotten
and absorbed into the earth below/ double cross the vacant and the bored/
they're not sure just what we have in the store/ morphine city slippin
dues down to see/ that we don't even care as restless as we are/ we feel
the pull in the land of a thousand guilts/ and poured cement, lamented
and assured/ to the lights and towns below/ faster than the speed of sound/
faster than we thought we'd go, beneath the sound of hope/ justine never
knew the rules,/ hung down with the freaks and the ghouls/ no apologies
ever need be made, i know you better than you fake it/ to see that we don't
care to shake these zipper blues/ and we don't know just where our bones
will rest/ to dust i guess/ forgotten and absorbed into the earth below/
the street heats the urgency of sound/ as you can see there's no one around
A Night Like This (The Cure)
Say goodbye on a night like this/ If it's the last thing we ever do/
You never looked as lost as this/ Sometimes it doesn't even look like you/
It goes dark/ It goes darker still/ Please stay/ But I watch you like I'm
made of stone/ As you walk away/ I'm coming to find you if it takes me
all night/ A witch hunt for another girl/ For always and ever is always
for you/ Your trust/ The most gorgeously stupid thing I ever cut in the
world/ Say hello on a day like today/ Say it every time you move/ The way
that you look at me now/ Makes me wish I was you/ It goes deep / It goes
deeper still/ This touch/ And the smile and the shake of your head/ I'm
coming to find you if it takes me all night/ Can't stand here like this
anymore/ For always and ever is always for you/ I want it to be perfect/
Like before/ I want to change it all/ I want to change
Annie-Dog
amphetamine annie-dog/ has her leash and a face/ her velvet spleen her shackle spine/ her dimond curse/ it comes with mine/ a vessel she/ for violent I/ confession arms a wake/ mine, mine you were always mine/ possessed by my taste/
and below the angel dog/ combs her hair and sings her psalms/ the bombs go off/ she doesn't notice/ it all goes wrong/ she sets things tragic/ she is venus/ she is mars/ she's electric/ and the struggle of
upon my face we leave no trace/ but in her stomach mercury aged
she holds the blood/ she carves the knives/ she digs the wives in our babies
amphetamine annie-dog/ pulls her trash/ and her stories/ from place to place/ and bed to bed/ gives of herself and the magnet head
another floor another ceiling/ counting stairs with double meanings
is it wrong to be swallowed whole/ to disappear in her/ to give her the priceless peace/ of giving up control
we tumble out into the streets/ and annie-dog she drags her leash/ pretty
face/ ugly mouth/ bitter bred and so released
and by the no/ and by the yes/ annie goes if you couldn't guess
a simple man/ a sycophant/ her elephant with the laughing call/ she wants clean sheets/ and fresh flowers/ and dental shots/ and the hong kong glue
amphetamine annie-dog/ has her leash and a face
Apathy's Last Kiss
What's the matter/ What's the difference/ You'll feel better if you lie/ With the stars in your eyes
Honey, Honey/ Where's my baby/ She know better than to cry/ With the stars in her eyes
There is/ No safe place to go/ I should know/ The lame/ And the droll have needs/ To let their feelings show
What's the matter/ What's the difference/ What's the question/ You'll feel better/ If you lie/ With the stars in your eyes
There is/ No safe place to go/ I should know/ The lame/ And the droll have needs/ To let their feelings show
Bury your heart in a hole/ Bury your heart in a/ Bury your heart in
a/ Bury your heart in a hole
Apples + Oranjes
what if the sun refused to shine?/ what if the clouds refused to rain?/ what if the wind refused to blow?/ what if the seas refused to wave?/ what if the world refused to turn?/ what if the stars would hesitate?
what if, what is isn't true?/ what are you going to do?/ what if, what is isn't you?/ does that mean you've got to lose?/ digging for the feel of something new
what if the silence let you dream?/ what if the air could let you breathe?/ what if the words would bring you here?/ what if this sound could bring you peace?
what if, what is isn't true?/ what are you going to do?/ digging for the feel of something new/ what if, what is isn't you?/ does that mean you've got to lose?
it came from your thoughts, your dreams and visions/ ripped up from your weeks and indecisions
what if the sun refused to shine?/ what if the clouds refused to rain?/ what if the world refused to turn?/ what if the clocks would hesitate?
what if, what is isn't true?/ what are you going to do?/ what if, what is isn't you?/ does that mean you've got to lose?/ digging for the feel of something new
does that mean you've got to choose?/ the feel of something new/ does
that mean you've got to lose?/ the thoughts you cannot lose/ what are you
gonna do?
Ava Adore
it's you that I adore/ you'll always be my whore/ you'll be the mother to my child/ and a child to my heart/ we must never be apart/ we must never be apart
lovely girl you're the beauty in my wrold/ without you there aren't reasons left to find
and I'll pull your crooked teeth/ you'll be perfect just like me/ you'll be a lover in my bed/ and a gun to my head/ we must never be apart/ we must never be apart

Beautiful
beautiful, you're beautiful, as beautiful as the sun/ wonderful, you're
wonderful, as wonderful as they come/ and i can't help but feel attached/
to the feelings i can't even match/ with my face pressed up to the glass,
wanting you/ beautiful, you're beautiful, as beautiful as the sky/ wonderful,
it's wonderful, to know that you're just like I/ and i'm sure you know
me well, as i'm sure you don't/ but you just can't tell/ who'll you love
and who you won't/ and i love you, as you love me/ so let the clouds roll
by your face/ we'll let the world spin on to another place/ we'll climb
the tallest tree above it all/ to look down on you and me and them/ and
i'm sure you know me well, as i'm sure you don't/ but you just can't tell,
who you'll love and who you won't/ don't let your life wrap up around you/
don't forget to call, whenever/ i'll be here just waiting for you/ i'll
be under your stars forever/ neither here nor there just right beside you/
i'll be under the stairs forever/ neither here nor there just right beside
you
Behold! The Night Mare
I've faced the fathoms in your deep/ withstood the suitors quiet siege/
pulled down the heavens just to please you/
appease you/ the wind blows and I know
I can't go on, digging roses from you grave/ to linger on, beyond the beyond/ where the willows weep/ and whirlpools sleep, you'll find me/ the coarse tide reflects sky
and the night mare rides on, and the night mare rides on/ with a december black psalm/ and the night mare rides on/ what i fear is lost here/ the wind blows and I know
all you have to do is run away/ and steal yourself from me/ become a mystery to gaze into/ you're so cruel in all you do/ but still I believe, I believe in you
so may you come with your own knives/ you'll never take me alive/ with all the force of what is true/ is there nothing I can do?
I can't go on, digging roses from you grave/ to linger on, beyond the beyond/ where the willows weep/ and whirlpools sleep, you'll find me
and the night mare rides on, and the night mare rides on/ with a december black psalm/ and the night mare rides on
I've faced the fathoms in your deep/ withstood the suitors quiet siege/
pulled down the heavens just to please you/ to hold the flower I can't
keep
Believe

I wish I was blank/ I wish I was blank/ I wish I could thank/ I wish I was blank
I'd write a letter to you/ And there'd be nothing to it/ I wouldn't hem and haw/ On just how to start it
I wish I was blank/ I wish I was blank/ I wish I could thank/ I wish I was blank

I'd said nothing/ Things would be so perfect/ I wish myself to keep/ I
pray my soul to sleep/ I wish myself away/ I wish I was blank

blank page was all the rage/ never meant to say anything/ in bed I was

Hey Blue, all your love is strange/ Come out, with all those crazy names/ So true/ When you lie
For you, Blue
Right or wrong/ I belong/ Right or wrong
Hey Blue, where'd you run to now/ Hey Blue, miss you since they found
you out/ I've been waiting such a long time/ For your smile
For you, Blue
I lay with you, this velvet morning/ Stay with me, for a while/ Where
we run to, is up to you/ Just stay with me, for a while
Bodies
cast the pearls aside, of a simple life of need/ come into my life forever/
the crumbled cities stand as known/ of the sights you have been shown/
of the hurt you call your own/ love is suicide/ the empty bodies stand
at rest/ casualties of their own flesh/ afflicted by their dispossession/
but no bodies ever knew/ nobodys/ no bodies felt like you/ nobodys/ love
is suicide/ now we drive the night, to the ironies of peace/ you can't
help deny forever/ the tragedies reside in you/ the secret sights hide
in you/ the lonely nights divide you in two/ all my blisters now revealed/
in the darkness of my dreams in the spaces in between us/ but no bodies
ever knew/ nobodys/ no bodies felt like you/ nobodys/ love is suicide
The Boy
i can't stop, i can't breathe, i can't think/ i'm in love again/ i don't need, i don't eat, i don't sleep/ i'm in love again
ooh, and every time i heard you breathe/ i sighed/ ooh, and every time i saw you bleed/ i cried/ love is like a song/ and if you sing/ if you ever need me/ i'll be there, and i-
i can't stop, can't breathe, can't think/ i'm in love again/ i don't need, i don't eat, i don't sleep/ i'm in love again
ooh, and every time that i'm with you/ i'm alive/ ooh, and every time i think of you/ there's a light/ and i felt it, too
and my heart is a spring/ is a well, if you need/ if you drink it for you/ then i'm leavin'/ every little part of me is a part of you
i can't stop, i can't breathe, i can't think/ i'm in love again/ i don't
need, i don't eat, i don't sleep/ i'm in love again/ i can't stop, i can't
breathe, i can't think/ i'm in love again/ i don't need, i don't eat, i
don't sleep/ i'm in love again/ the boy, the boy's in love/ the boy, the
boy's in love/ the boy, the boy's in love/ the boy, the boy's in love

Bullet
Train to Osaka (Instrumental)
Bullet With Butterfly Wings
the world is a vampire, sent to drain/ secret destroyers, hold you up
to the flames/ and what do i get, for my pain/ betrayed desires, and a
piece of the game/ even though i know-i suppose i'll show/ all my cool
and cold-like old job/ despite all my rage i am still just a rat in a cage/
then someone will say what is lost can never be saved/ despite all my rage
i am still just a rat in a cage/ now i'm naked, nothing but an animal/
but can you fake it, for just one more show/ and what do you want, i want
to change/ and what have you got/ when you feel the same/ even though i
know-i suppose i'll show/ all my cool and cold-like old job/ despite all
my rage i am still just a rat in a cage/ then someone will say what is
lost can never be saved/ despite all my rage i am still just a rat in a
cage/ tell me i'm the only one/ tell me there's no other one/ jesus was
an only son/ tell me i'm the chosen one/ jesus was an only son for you/
despite all my rage i am still just a rat in a cage/ and i still believe
that i cannot be saved
Bury Me
(boys, let's do it)
Bury me in love/ Bury me in love
Shared your kisses, take your heart/ Buried me and it hurts
I love my sister so/ She don't smother me/ I played the spades I know/ I'm a Jack of all trades/ Would you bury me?
Once you see her/ One inside (hide, hide)/ Some things you just can't hide/ If you see her/ Tell me why (why, why)/ Why won't she come outside?
Once you see her/ One inside (hide, hide)/ Some things you just can't hide/ If you see her/ Tell me why (why, why)/ Why won't she come outside?
She will bury me/ She will bury me
By Starlight
by starlight i'll kiss you/ and promise to be your one and only/ i'll
make you feel happy/ and leave you to be lost in mine/ and where will we
go, what will we do?/ soon said i, will know/ dead eyes, are you just like
me?/ cause her eyes were as vacant as the seas/ dead eyes, are you just
like me?/ and all along, we knew we'd carry on/ just to belong/ by starlight
i know you/ as lovely as a wish granted true/ my life has been empty, my
life has been untrue/ and does she really know, who i really am?/ does
she really know me at last/ dead eyes, are you just like me?
Bye June
Bye June/ I'm going to the moon/ It better be by June/ 'Cause I'm going
to the moon/ So June/ You'd better make it soon/ I hope you make it June/
'Cause I'm going to the moon/ Bye June/ Bye June/ I'm going to the moon/
I hope you make it soon/ 'Cause I'm waiting on this moon/ Bye June/ I hope
you make it too/ I'm wishing you're there too/ I hope you make it June/
Bye bye June/ Hope you make it to the moon
Cherry
(listen-wanna just start it?...ready, flood? yeah...1, 2, 3, 4)
stay with me, i'll set you free/ 'cause i can tell you once were pretty/ rose so sad you've lost your petals/ and lost the luster of your tattle tales
i need a love to help me find my way/ i need a strength that i cannot betray/ i need a word to say what i can't say/ i need a lover, lover/ i need a lover, lover
what are we waiting for?/ what are we waiting for?/ time has lost its hold on me
hatred sleeps inside my bones/ in the stillness of cool air/ all the boys have been left for dead/ 'cause we know where they fear to tread/ the beautiful ones, the ones we'll remember/ the precious ones, our greatest pretenders
i need a love to help me find my way/ i need a strength that i cannot betray/ i need a word to say what i can't say/ i need a lover, lover/ i need a lover, lover
and if you lose yourself/ could you take me, too?/ could you rest inside the sleep?
stay with me, i'll set you free from you
Cherub Rock
Freak out/ And give in/ Doesn't matter what you believe in/ Stay cool/ And be somebody's fool this year/ 'cause they know/ Who is righteous, What is bold/ So I'm told
Who wants honey/ As long as there's some money/ Who wants that honey?
Hipsters unite/ Come align for the big fight to rock for you/ But beware/ All those angels with there wings glued on/ 'cause deep down/ We are frightened and we're scared/ If you don't stare
Who wants honey/ As long as there's some money/ Who wants that honey?
Let me out/ Let me out/ Let me out/ Let me out
Tell me all of your secrets/ Cannot help but believe this is true/ Tell me all of your secrets/ I know, I know, I know,/ Should have listened when I was told
Who wants honey/ As long as there is some money/ Who wants that honey?
Let me out/ Let me out/ Let me out/ Let me out
Christmastime
We watch the children playing/ Beside the Christmas tree/ Presents are wrapped up/ It's beautiful and secretly/ The gifts you'll have/ The fun awaits/ For you inside
Christmastime has come/ There'll be toys for everyone/ 'Cause Christmastime has come for you
I remeber dreaming/ Wishing, hoping, praying for this day/ Now I sit and watch them/ The little ones I love/ So excited by the way
Christmastime has come/ There'll be toys for everyone/ 'Cause Christmastime has come for you
And now the word is given/ It's time to peek inside/ It's time to let the toys out/ So anxious for/ Your look of joy and delight/ They've waited for/ Just a surprise (?)
Christmastime has come/ There'll be toys for everyone/ 'Cause Christmastime has come for you
Christmastime has come/ There'll be toys for everyone/ 'Cause Christmastime
has come for you
Clones (We’re all)
I'm a clone/ I know it and I'm fine/ I'm one and more are on the way/
I'm two, doctor/ Three's on the line/ He'll take incubation another day/
I'm all alone, so are we all/ We're all clones/ All are one and one are

Crestfallen
who am I to need you when I'm down/ where are you when I need you around/ your life is not your own
and all I ask you/ is for another chance/ another way around you/ to live by circumstance, once again
who am I to need you now/ to ask you why to tell you no/ to deserve your love and sympathy/ you were never meant to belong to me
and you may go, but I know you won't leave/ too many years built into memories/ your life is not your own
who am I to need you now/ to ask you why to tell you no/ to deserve your love and sympathy/ you were never meant to belong to me
who am I to you?/ along the way/ I lost my faith
and as you were, you'll be again/ to mold like clay, to break like dirt/ to tear me uo in your sympathy/ you were never meant to belong to me/ you were never meant to belong to me/ you were never meant to belong to me
who am I?
Crush
You wrap your arms around/ A feeling that surrounds/ Like liquid peppermint/ Just taste the drinks that she served
And this feeling shivers down your spine/ Love comes in colors I can't deny/ All that matters is love, love, your love
You're sleeping in your bed/ Just rest your weary head/ Maybe you shouldn't care/ Throw away those dreams and dare
And I wonder if it matters to me/ Love comes in colors I can't deny/
All that shimmers is love, love, your love/ Your love/ Your love
Cupid De Locke
cupid hath pulled back hi sweetheart's bow/ to cast divine arrows into
her soul/ to grab her attention swift and quick/ or morrow the marrow of
her bones be thick/ with turpentine kisses and mistaken blows/ see the
devil may do as the devil may care/ he loves none sweeter as sweeter the
dare/ her mouth the mischief he doth seek/ her heart the captive of which
he speaks/ so note all ye lovers in love with the sound/ your world be
shattered with nary a note/ of one cupids arrow under your coat/ and in
the land of star crossed lovers/ and barren hearted wanderers/ forever
lost in forsaken missives and satan's pull/ we seek the unseekable and
we speak the unspeakable/ our hopes dead gathering dust to dust/ in faith,
in compassion, and in love
Czarina
Sippin' tea/ let the rivers pass me by/ these dusty tears/ need no place to cry
I need no reason for the first time in my life/ I just need to be on my way
I don't want for anything that I don't have/ all I want is waiting for me there/ for me there/ with my czarina queen of all that I believe/ Still born seasons cradle our affairs
I light a candle/ my lover to protect/ in sack cloth and ashes/ my lover will descend
I need no reason for the first time in my life/ I just need to be on my way
I don't want for anything that I don't have/ all I want is waiting for me there/ I don't want for anything that I don't have/ all I want is waiting for me there/ for me there
hide behind your walls/ I waste a day/ if I want/ all this and more are under me
I need no reason for the first time in my life/ I just need to be on my way
I don't want for anything that I don't have/ all I want is waiting for me there/ I don't want for anything that I don't have/ all I want is waiting for me there/ for me there/ for me there
