| This is just a space I wanted to have where the genius that is Richey and Nicky's songwriting could be appreciated, what follows are some of my favourite songs. (I change these periodically) |
| Donkeys Put some lipstick on At least your lies will be pretty A shadow on my face And us donkeys wake up weary Sweating and sickly Donkeys don't allow their tears No emotion never feel And drown themselves in whatever Find some meaning Donkeys weight cracking a spine Sweetness bent double Whole days making polite Never moving out of turn Or even trying to be natural Those with silence inside Eyes bare piss holes in the snow Drained and burnt yellow And sunk in self-pity Jerusalem sawn off Donkeys are only left with lies Are only left with lies |
| Roses in the hospital Roses in the hospital Try to pull my fingernails out Roses in the hospital I want to cling to something soft Roses in the hospital Progressing like a constant war Roses in the hospital There's no one to feel ashamed for All we wanted was a home Now we are so strung out we wanna own Like a leaf in the autumn breeze Like a flood in January We don't want your fucking love Roses in the hospital Stub cigarettes out on my arm Roses in the hospital Want to feel something of value Roses in the hospital Nothing really makes me happy Roses in the hospital Heroin is just too trendy All we wanted was a home Now we're so strung out we wanna own Like a leaf in the autumn breeze Like a flood in January We don't want your fucking love Roses in the hospital This century achieved so much Roses in the hospital To make a voice no voice at all Roses in the hospital Flowers cannot express the loss Roses in the hospital Torn reflections of burnt out trash Burnt out trash Forever ever delayed Forever ever delayed Forever Forever Forever ever delayed [Independence is a game] Forever ever delayed [Credibility, I'm yawning] Forever Forever Rudi Rudi Rudi Rudi Rudi Rudi Rudi can't fail Forever ever delayed Forever delayed Forever Forever Forever delayed [The West scratches onto my skin] Forever delayed [Contagious like a suntan] [We never felt any sun] [Oh ooh-oh Rudi Rudi Rudi gonna fail] |
| Black Dog on my Shoulder There's a black dog on my shoulder again Licking my neck and saying she's my friend Solitude the one thing that I really miss Guess my life is a compromise There's a black dog on my shoulder again I'm playing with it but it's gone to my head Like "Carlito's Way" there are no exit signs Freeze me there until I am numb My mouth is so dry My eyes are shut tight There's a black dog a coming tonight Black dog's a coming tonight My dilemma but not my choice Winston Churchill can you hear my voice Melodrama there in my kitchen sink Double vision the way it is Am I coming home to you again Or am I stupid just by design Does it matter if you really ever know This black dog is out of control My mouth is so dry My eyes are shut tight There's a black dog a coming tonight Black dog's a coming tonight Am I coming home to you again Or am I stupid just by design Does it matter if you really ever know (Repeat Chorus) |
