So Young

She can, start, to walk on, when she wants
Because we're young, because we're gone,
We'll take the tide's electric mind, oh yeah? oh yeah,
So young, so gone, let's chase the dragon, ha,
Because we're young, because we're gone,
We'll scare the skies with tiger's eyes, oh yeah? oh yeah,
So young and so gone, let's chase the dragon, ha
Let's chase the dragon, ha, let's chase the dragon,
From our home high in the city where the skyline stained the snow,
I fell for a servant who kept me on the boil, oh
So young, so gone, let's chase the dragon, ha
From our home, home, oh, from our home, home, oh
From our home, home, oh, from our home, home, oh


Animal Nitrate

Well like his dad you know that he's had
Animal nitrate in mind,
Oh in your council home he jumped on your bones
Now you're taking it time after time
Oh, it turns you on, on, now he has gone
Oh, what turns you on, on, now your animal's gone?
Well he said he'd show you his bed
And the delights of the chemical smile,
So in your broken home he broke all your bones
Now you're taking it time after time
Oh, it turns you on, on, now he has gone
Oh, what turns you on, on, now your animal's gone?
What does it take to turn you on, on
Now he has gone?
Now you're over 21?
Now your animal's gone?
Animal, he was animal, an animal, oh
Animal, he was animal, an animal, oh, animal, oh, animal, oh
He's just an animal, an animal, oh
Animal, he was animal, he's just an animal, oh
Animal, he was animal, an animal, oh


She's Not Dead

She'll come to her end locked in a car somewhere with exhaust in her hair,
What's she called? I dunno, she's fucking with a slip of a man while the engine ran
He said "oh, she's not dead, she's gone away, gone away" he said
And he said "oh, she's not dead, just go away go away" he said
In the car he couldn't afford they found his made up name on her ankle chain,
So don't call, don't call her at home, she's fucking with a slip of a man while the engine ran
And he said "oh, she's not dead, she's gone away gone away" he said
He said "oh, she's not dead, just gone away gone away" he said "just gone away gone away" he said
She's gone away to someone else's bed. 


Moving

Shame on me well I had the beast you see
And if he can take it I can take it home with me,
Shame on her, she's a lovely little number
And when we go lassooing you get lassooed, all of you
If you can take it, I can take it
We're moving, so moving, so we are a boy, we are a girl
So moving, so moving,
Oh, shame on the girl, she's got a big black dog in her
And while tough kids sing about tough kids she just skins the world,
We'll never never play the harp, and we'll stick like sick on the stars
And if you can take it I can take these stones from my heart
If you can take it, I can take it
We're moving, so moving, so we are a boy we are a girl
So moving, so moving
If you can take it, I can take it, all of me
If you can take it, I can take it all
If you can take it, I can take it, all of me
If you can take it, I can take it all! 


Pantomime Horse

I was born as a pantomime horse
Ugly as the sun when he falls to the floor,
I was cut from the wreckage one day
This is what I get for being that way,
Well did you ever, did you ever go round with them?
Well did you ever, did you ever go round the bend?
I was conned by a circus hand
Tragic as the son of superman,
"I would die for the stars" she said
This is what I get for my beautiful head,
Well did you ever, did you ever go round with them?
Well did you ever, did you ever go round the bend?
Well did you ever, did you ever go round with them?
Well did you ever, did you ever go round the bend?
Hey, tried it that way, have you ever tried it that way, have you ever tried it that way?
Hey, tried it that way, have you ever tried it that way, have you ever tried it that way?
Hey, tried it that way, have you ever tried it that way, have you ever tried it that way?
Hey, tried it that way, have you ever tried it that way, have you ever tried it that way?
Hey, tried it that way, hey, tried it that way, hey, tried it that way? 
Have you ever tried it that way? 


The Drowners

Won't someone give me a gun?
Oh, well it's for my brother,
Well he writes the line wrote right down my spine
It says "Oh do you believe in love there?"
So slow down, slow down, you're taking me over
And so we drown, Sir we drown, stop taking me over
Won't someone give me some fun?
(As the skin flies all around us)
We kiss in his room to a popular tune
Oh, real drowners
So slow down, slow down, you're taking me over
And so we drown, Sir we drown, stop taking me over
Slow down, slow down, you're taking me over
And so we drown, Sir we drown, stop taking me over, oh, oh, oh, oh
You're taking me over, oh, oh, oh, oh, you're taking me over, oh, oh, oh, oh
You're taking me over, oh, oh, oh, oh, you're taking me over, oh, oh, oh, oh
Stop taking me over, oh, you're taking me over, oh
You're taking me over, oh, you're taking me over, oh


Sleeping Pills

Oh, angel, don't take those sleeping pills, you don't need them
Though it's just time they kill
Oh, angel, give me your sleeping pills, you don't need them
Give me the time they kill
You're a water sign, I'm an air sign
Gone gone to Valium, could you get me some?
You're a water sign, and I'm an air sign
Too Siamese to catch the leaves from those trees
Oh, angel, don't take those sleeping pills, you don't need them
Though it's just time they kill, oh
You're a water sign, I'm an air sign
Pumped up with Valium, could you get me some?
You're a water sign, I'm an air sign
With sweet F.A. to do today, with sweet F.A. to do today, hey, hey, hey, hey
Sweet F.A. hey, hey, hey, hey sweet F.A. hey, hey, hey, sweet F.A. hey, hey, hey, hey
Oh, angel, don't take those sleeping pills. 


Breakdown

Back where the dogs bark, where still life bleeds the concrete white, try not to go too far inside your mind.
Back where the cars decide, where the lame star limps an endless mile, have I gone too far inside my mind?
Oh, if you were the one, would I even notice now my mind is gone?
Oh, if you were the one, would I even notice?
Back where the car was parked, where the canine in the A-line stole your time,
You can only go so far for womankind,
Oh, if you were the one, would I even notice now my mind is gone?
Oh, if you were the one, would I even notice?
You can only go so far,
You can only go so far,
You can only go so far in your mind
Does your love only come, does your love only come, does he only come in a Volvo?
Does he only come, does your love only come, does he only come in a Volvo? 


Metal Mickey

Well she's show showing it off then
The glitter in her lovely eyes
Show show showing it off then
And all the people shake their money in time
She sells heart, she sells meat
Oh dad, she's driving me mad, come see
We shake shake shake to the trumpet
And through the slippery city we ride
Skyline swine on the circuit
Where all the people shake their money in time
She sells heart, she sells meat
Oh dad, she's driving me mad, come see
She sells heart, she sells meat
Oh dad, she's driving me mad, come see
She sells heart, she sells meat
She sells heart, she sells meat
She sells heart, (driving me mad)
she sells meat, (driving me mad)
She sells heart, (driving me mad)
she sells meat, (driving me mad)
She sells heart, (driving me mad) 
she sells meat, (driving me mad)
She sells heart, (driving me mad)
she sells meat, (driving me mad)


Animal Lover

I see you're moving, see you're moving, moving in with her
You'll pierce your right ear, pierce your heart here, this skinny boy is one of the girls
Cos around my neck and around her neck hangs everything you are
I know you've been inside but what were you in for?
Animal lover, animal lover, animal lover, la, la, la, la, la
I see you're moving, see you're moving like wildlife from the waist
But when your name's scratched in on a shiny ring your waist is my resting place
And around my neck and around her neck hangs everything you are
I know you've been inside but what were you in for?
Animal lover, animal lover, animal lover, la, la, la, la, la
Animal lover, animal lover, animal lover, animal lover
Animal lover, animal lover, animal lover, animal lover, oh
Animal lover, animal lover, animal lover, animal lover
Animal lover, animal lover, animal lover, animal lover 
Animal lover, animal lover, animal lover, animal lover, uh


The Next Life

See you in your next life when we'll fly away for good,
Stars in our own car we can drive away from here
Far away, so far away, down to Worthing and work there
Far away, we'll go far away, and flog ice creams 'til the company's on its knees...
...See you in your next life when we'll fly away for good.
