 Drowning By Numbers

Open up your heart, let me slip inside.
Such determination always tries to turn the tide
Open up your arms, let me dive into
the big, big blue.
Try losing, this chromosome.
It's my choosing, down to the bone.
Open up your heart, let me slip inside.
Such imagination always helps the feeling slide.
Open up your soul, falling back into
the big, big blue.
Try losing, this chromosome.
It's my choosing, down to the bone.
Blood, dive in, blood, drowning (repeat)
Open up your heart, let me slip inside.
Auto-flagellation always helps the ghost to hide.
Open up your arms, let me dive into
the big, big blue.
Try losing, this chromosome.
It's my choosing, down to the bone.
Blood, dive in, blood, drowning (repeat)

Dark Globe
(words by Syd Barrett)

Oh where are you now
Pussy willow that smiled on this leaf?
When I was alone
You promised the stone from your heart.
My head kissed the ground
I was half the way down
Treading the sand
Please.
Please lift a hand
I'm only a person
Whose armbands beat
On his hands, hang tall
Won't you miss me?
Wouldn't you miss me at all?
Oh, Oh, Oh
The poppy bird's way
Swing twigs coffee brands around
Brandish her wand with a feathery tongue
My head kissed the ground.
I was half the way down
Treading the sand
Please
Please
Please lift a hand
I'm only a person
Whose Eskimo changed
I tattooed my brain all the way
Won't you miss me?
Wouldn't you miss me at all?
Oh, oh, oh

Been Smoking Too Long
(words by Nick Drake)

Yeah, I really, umm, I really, I really wanted to
kind of like, to capture some kind of like moment,
but maybe it's better if I'm sober.[/spoken]
Wake up in the morning, I look at my clock
It's way past noontime, I'm late for work.
Tell me what have I done wrong?
Nothing can go right with me it must be that I've been smoking
Too long
Go to fix me some breakfast, I ain't got no food
Take me a shower, the water don't feel no good.
Tell me what have I done wrong?
And nothing can go right with me must be that I've been smoking
Too long
I got opium in my chimney, no other life to choose
Nightmares made of hash dreams, the devil in my shoes.
What have I done wrong?
And nothing can go right with me it must be that I've been smoking
Too long
When I'm smoking, smoking, put my worries on a shelf
Try not to think about nothing, don't wanna see myself
What have I done wrong?
And nothing can go right with me it must be that I've been smoking
Too long
In this blues I'm singing, there's a lesson to be learned
You go round smoking, you're gonna get burned
Fuck me what have I done wrong?
Nothing can go right with me must be that I've been smoking
Too long
Too long.

Flesh Mechanic

He tries to embrace her
she wants him to race her
he needs a laser
to get it through her skull
means and lies and hatreds
tears that fall in sequence
cold caress
imprints
conversation growing dull
Says he's a poet
lousy protozoan
and he kisses ass for free
I took a vow of silence
when he tries to talk to me
I just turn on the tv
He tries to impress her, mentally undress her
it takes more to possess her
but in his pocket lies a hole
he's got a thousand talents
charisma by the bagful
aristocratic parents
a rebel with a heart of gold
Says he's a poet
this time he's gonna blow it
'cause he's dancing with his ego
I took a vow of silence
when he reads his work to me
I swallow words like a
placebo
He's strutting with your flesh mechanic
gets him in a panic
he's wasting time
'cause everybody is a star
in his eyes
Careful not to give your favours
to your lonesome fucked-up neighbours
I had one who sent me her heart
in a tupperware container
all the movies in my head
they flicker with my bleeding heart
a careless slipping of the tongue
on just another private part
Blatant search for
stoned affection
fights the rust that
breeds infection
meet me at the
intersection
don't forget your
fuel injection
He's strutting with your flesh mechanic
gets him in a panic
he's wasting time
'cause everybody is a star
in his eyes
You think this love is bona fide
you're being taken for a ride
wrap your lip around your head
and slowly blow yourself away.

Slacker Bitch

It echoes in my brain
I didn't mean it
Pulses through my veins
I didn't mean it
I'm the one to blame
I didn't mean it
Did too much cocaine
I didn't mean it.
Slackerbitch, faghag, whore
Looks real cute, her lips are sore
Slackerbitch, faghag, whore
Always comes back for more
Your memory will fade
I didn't mean it
You've always had it made
I didn't mean it
I know you feel betrayed
I didn't mean it
I just wanted to get laid
I didn't mean it
Slackerbitch, faghag, whore
Looks real cute, her lips are sore
Slackerbitch, faghag, whore
Always knocking on my door
You come across impure
I didn't mean it
You're goddamn immature
I didn't mean it
You act so insecure
I didn't mean it
You hate me now I'm sure
I didn't mean it
Slackerbitch, faghag, whore
Looks real cute, her lips are sore
Slackerbitch, faghag, whore
Dripping sex from every pore
Slackerbitch, faghag, whore
Looks real cute, her lips are sore
Slackerbitch, faghag, whore
Such a motherfucking bore.

Bigmouth Strikes Again
(words by Morrisey & Johnny Marr)

Sweetness
Sweetness I was only joking when I said
I'd like to smash every tooth in your head.
Oh sweetness
Sweetness I was only joking when I said
By rights you should be bludgeoned in your bed.
And now I know how joan of arc felt
Now I know how joan of arc felt
As the flames rose to her roman nose
And her discman started to melt
Bigmouth la da dum da da
Bigmouth la da da da
Bigmouth strikes again
And I've got no right to take my place
In the human race
Oh ooh
Bigmouth la da dum da da
Bigmouth la da da da
Bigmouth strikes again
And I've got no right to take my place
In the human race
And now I know how joan of arc felt
Now I know how joan of arc felt
As the flames rose to her roman nose
And her megadrive started to melt
Bigmouth la da dum da da
Bigmouth la da da da
Bigmouth strikes again
And I've got no right to take my place
In the human race
Oh ooh
Bigmouth la da dum da da
Bigmouth la da da da
Bigmouth strikes again
And I've got no right to take my place
In the human race.

Eyesight To The Blind

You don't know me, and you never hold me
Like your little piece on the side.
My mother told me, that you're never lonely
When you're laughing all the time.
Inside out and outside in
You bring eyesight to the blind.
Crying is a crime.
Slowing down the metronome
Slowing down.
Slowing down the metronome
Slowing down.
You don't know me, and you never hold me
Like your little boy in blue.
My father told me, that you're always lonely
When they're all laughing at you.
Inside out and outside in
You bring jesus to the jew.
Slowing down the metronome
Slowing down.
Slowing down the metronome
Slowing down.
You don't know me, and you never hold me
Like your little piece on the side.
Inside out and outside in
You bring eyesight to the blind.

Miss Moneypenny

Penance for his sin, he locked it in for just a little while
Lubricating creams, sanitaries would only cramp his style
It's a dirty job but shooting guns just makes you horny
Wants to spill his seed on guaranteed, service with a smile.
Miss Moneypenny
Miss Moneypenny
Oh
Miss Moneypenny
Miss Moneypenny
Oh
Pitter patter of the eyelid on the first roll of the dice
Feel the atmosphere, it's gently laced with nicotine and spice
It's a long walk home, the entrance of the night is scary
Only trouble is, he never learned to shoot the same gun twice
Miss Moneypenny
Miss Moneypenny
Oh
Miss Moneypenny
Miss Moneypenny
Oh
Every job he saves the girl
Martini, mobile phone
Bastards getting in his way
They're all pushing daisies
All you need to make a movie is a gun and a girl

Then The Clouds Will Open For Me

My guy has a tan transcontinental
But it keeps me enchained
Watch an old black and white movie
Fred and Ginger are too sentimental, crying in shame
I don't want to be forgotten
I can't be alone
So don't you dare leave me
It's like coming home
To a skin that has died
Human voices like a drum
And they're looking right through me
Scatter the ashes
One more time for me, one more time for me
My guy has a tattoo ornamental
When he's frozen in space
Cut your eye far to me
A covered carcass is too elemental, caught underneath a subway
I don't want to be forgotten
I can't be alone
So don't you dare leave me
It's like coming home
It's a skin that has died
Human voices like a drum
And they're looking right through me
Scatter the ashes
One more time for me (x8)
Trans-likened, twisting my ankle
Doing the grave dance
Narcotic? yes please, I'll have a sample
Riding on my very last chance
Then the clouds will open for me
Gonna meet my jesus christ
I see history playing before me
For pleasure and passion you play the price
Sadness the name of the spike that took me
I'll make that's all
Like some raging, hard, horny Mephistopheles
Who came for my soul

Waiting For The Son Of Man

Patience comes to the ugly, not me
Laughter comes to the lucky, not me
People in my head that won't stop talking
Nothing in my dream that isn't creepy crawling

Walking in the park and I think that I'm falling
Swimming in the sea and I think I'll
You guessed it
Only lifeguards
Only lifeguards
Packing all the time ??
Can save me

Waiting
Waiting
Waiting
For the son of man
For the son of man

Patience comes to the ugly, not me
Concentration comes to the ugly, not me
Nothing on the box that hasn't been born
No-one in the street that isn't old

Driving in the car And I think that I'm crashing
Swimming in the sea and I think that I'll
You guessed it
Only lifeguards
Only lifeguards
Packing all the time
Can save me

Waiting
Waiting
Waiting
For the son of man
For the son of man

Mars Landing Party

Embrasse moi, mets ton doigt dan mon cul,
Embrasse moi, mets ton doigt dan mon cul,
Une présence ambigüe,
Une présence inconnue,
Jusqu'a ce que j'en peux plus.

Johnny And Mary
(words by Robert Palmer)

Johnny's always running around, trying to find certainty.
He needs all the world to confirm, that he ain't lonely

Mary counts walls, knows he tires easily

Johnny thinks the world would be right, if it would buy, truth from him.
Mary says he changes his mind, more than a woman.

But she made her bed, even when the chance was slim.

Johnny says he's willing to learn, when he decides, he's a fool.
Johnny say's he'll live any where, when he earns time to.

Mary combs her hair, says she should be use to it.

Mary always edges her bets, she never knows, what to think.
She says that he still acts, like he's being discovered.

Scared that he'll get caught, without a second thought

Johnny feels he's wasting his breath, trying to talk, sense to her
Mary says he's lacking a real, sense of proportion
So she combs her hair, knows he tires easily

Johnny's always running around, trying to find certainty.
He needs all the world to confirm, that he ain't lonely

Mary counts walls, says she should be use to it.

Leni

I kneel before her, beneath this frozen sky
Beneath her shoulder, beneath her evil eye
She towers over this male who is a fly
My sci-fi lullaby

I kneel before her, beneath this frozen sky
I beg below her, my limbs are paralyzed
She beats me harder than any kind of guy
My sci-fi lullaby

Bubblegun

Take this migraine everywhere I go
Take the fast lane everywhere I go
Take this migraine everywhere I go
Someday, gonna take it slow

Take this migraine everywhere I go
Take the fast lane everywhere I go
Take this migraine everywhere I go
Someday, gonna take it slow

I wanna turn you on
Feels like a loaded gun
Spit out your Bubblegum
I wanna...Wanna... [x2]

I wanna turn you on
Feels like a loaded gun
Spit out your Bubblegum
I wanna... I Wanna... [x4]

I wanna, I wanna
I wanna, I wanna cum

Holocaust
(words by Alex Chilton)

Your eyes are almost dead
Can't get out of bed
And you can't sleep

You're sitting down to dress
And you're a mess
You look in the mirror

You look in your eyes
Then you realize

Everybody goes
Leaving those
Who fall behind

Everybody goes
As far as they can
They don't just care

They stood on the stairs
Laughing at your airs

Your mother's dead
She said
"Don't be afraid"

Your mother's dead
You're on your own
She's in her bed

Everybody goes
Leaving those
Who fall behind

Everybody goes
As far as they can
They don't just care

You're a wasted face
You're a sad-eyed lie
You're a holocaust

Little Mo

In our pain and sinning fall
Accept peace and whine
Going bad and taking all this
It's of each and tide
Calling bean and sinning call
Now I'm neat and tight
Gonna crap with naked elders
Sits there cheating high

Tonight, Jesus loves you
Jesus loves you, tonight
Jesus loves you, tonight
Jesus loves you, tonight

We are dead and cynical
Gun of peace in my eye
See the back with naked elders
It's a cheating high
But she will back on mainframe
She got crack on cocain
She got crack on seeing
Cheater, cheater

Tonight, Jesus loves you
Jesus loves you, tonight
Jesus loves you, tonight
Jesus loves you, tonight
Jesus loves you, tonight
Jesus loves you, tonight
Jesus loves you, tonight
Jesus loves you, tonight
Jesus love you

Till our death and sinning call
Except she can hide
All those fat and sacred elders
Sister off and bad-eyed
She got back on mainframe
She got crack on cocain
She got crack on seeing
Cheater, cheater

Tonight, Jesus loves you
Jesus love you, tonight (x5)
Jesus love you

Drink You Pretty

Sick of drugs and dancing feet
Sick of bars where people meet
Smell of crotch and sheets not clean
Hairy men in magazines
Every city looks the same
Running from the threat of rain
Pillow talk that's just for one
Saturday get nothing done

Lie to me
It takes less time
To drink you pretty

Lie to me
It takes less time
To drink you pretty

Human seethes of apathy
Nuclear catastrophe
Jumbos crash into the ground
Governments sleep safe and sound
Mornings glisten cold and bright
Organs stolen every night
Can of beans and fast bouquet
Double jackpot give away

Lie to me
It takes less time
To drink you pretty

Lie to me
It takes less time
To drink you pretty

Hello pretty
Hello
Hello pretty
Hello
Hello pretty
Hello
Hello pretty

Lie to me
It takes less time
To drink you pretty

Lie to me
It takes less time
To drink you pretty

Where Is My Mind?
(words by The Pixies)

With your feet in the air and your head on the ground
Try this trick and spin it, yeah
Your head will collapse
But there's nothing in it
And you'll ask yourself

Where is my mind (4x)

Way out in the water
See it swimmin'

I was swimmin' in the Carribean
Animals were hiding behind the rocks, yeah
Except the little fish
But they told me, he swears
Tryin' to talk to me to me to me

Where is my mind (3x)

Way out in the water
See it swimmin'

With your feet in the air and your head on the ground
Try this trick and spin it, yeah
Your head will collapse
If there's nothing in it
And you'll ask yourself

Where is my mind (4x)

Way out in the water
See it swimmin'

Eeeeeh

Ooooh
Ooooh
Ooooh

Jackie
(words by Sinead O'Connor)

Jackie left on a cold, dark night
Telling me he'd be home
Sailed the seas for a hundred years
Leaving me all alone
And I've been dead for twenty years
I've been washing the sand
With my ghostly tears
Searching the shores for my Jackie-oh
I remember the day the young man came
He said, "your Jackie's gone
We got lost in the rain"
And I ran to the beach
And laid me down "You're all wrong", I said
And they stared at the sand
"That man knows that sea
Like the back of his hand
He'll be back some time
laughing at you"
And I've been waiting all this time
For my man to come
Take his hand in mine
And lead me away
To unseen shores
I've been washing the sand
With my salty tears
Searching the shore
For these long years
And I'll walk the seas forever more
Till I find my Jackie oh
Till I find my Jackie oh
Till I find my Jackie oh Jackie oh
Jackie oh
Jackie oh

Running Up That Hill
(lyrics by Kate Bush)

It doesn't hurt me
You wanna feel how it feels
You wanna know, know that it doesn't hurt me
You wanna hear 'bout the deal that I'm making
You, you and me

And if I only could
I'd make a deal with God
And get him to swap our places
Be running up that road
Be running up that hill
Be running up that building
If I only could oooh...

You don't want to hurt me
But see how deep the bullet lies
Unaware I'm tearing you asunder
There is thunder in our hearts, baby
Is there so much hate for the ones we love
'Tell me we both matter, don't we
You
You and me
You and me won't be unhappy

And if I only could
I'd make a deal with god
And get him to swap our places
Be running up that road
Be running up that hill
Be running up that building
If I only could oooh...

C'mon baby, c'mon darlin'
Let me steal this moment from you now
Come on angel, c'mon, c'mon darling
Let's exchange the experience oh,

And if I only could
I'd make a deal with God
And get him to swap our places
Be running up that road
Be running up that hill
With no problems.
And if I only could
I'd make a deal with God
And get him to swap our places
Be running up that road
Be running up that hill
With no problems.
And if I only could
Be running up that hill
And if I only could
Be running up that hill
And if I only could
Be running up that hill

The Ballad Of Melody Nelson
(by Serge Gainsbourg)

This is the story of
Of Melody Nelson
Apart from me
No one ever took her in his arms
Under her thumb
Ice in the sun
Oh, my Melody
Oh, my Melody
She was nothing but love
Poor Melody Nelson
A life was more said then done
But her days were numbered nil
Count 14 falls
15 on call

A baby tiger would
Forever purring in the sun
Just as dangerous as a child with a gun
Shooting me down
Oh, my Melody
My, Melody Nelson
Still playing hurting games for fun
As adorable as dumb
Deaf to the sound
To what's going down

Protège-moi Des Mes Désirs

C'est le malaise du moment
L'epidemie qui s'étend
La fête est finie on descend
Des pensées qui glacent la raison
Paupières baissées, visages gris
Occupés au profond de leur lit
On le loge chez soi à vivre
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
Protège-moi, protège-moi
Protège-moi, protège-moi
Protège-moi des mes désirs
Protège-moi, protège-moi

Sommes-nous les jouets du destin?
Souviens-toi des moments ignobles
Qu'on a tant éclatés au matin
Et maintenant nous sommes tout seuls
Perdus ler rêves, les edens
Le temps où on avait la clé
Il nous reste toute une vie pour pleurer
Dans l'attande 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
Protège-moi, protège-moi des mes désirs
Protège-moi des mes désirs
Protège-moi des mes désirs
