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 (x4)
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 (x7)
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 (x7)
KITSCH OBJECT
Just like every lichen,
how you stick to me
If your luck is dying, go and plant a tree
With artistic license, always comes for free
Just like every lichen, how you stick to me
Snook your way backstage
Paris sets the rage
Cursing on your brain
So now i slipped away
Just like every lichen,
how you stick to me
If your luck is dying, go and plant a tree
With artistic license, always comes for free
Just like every lichen, how you stick to me
Weightless.. Bare.. Faithless... Scared
Know that bitches face
All seen better days
Too quick to blow your fuse
But that's the life you choose
Just like every lichen,
how you stick to me
If your luck is dying, go and plant a tree
With artistic license, always comes for free
Just like every lichen, how you stick to me
Weightless.. Bare.. Faithless... Scare
Snook yourself backstage
Paris sets the rage
Cursing on your brain
So now i slipped away
Just like every lichen,
how you stick to me
If your luck is dying, go and plant a tree
With poetic license, always come for free
Just like every lichen, how you stick to me
Weightless.. Bare.. Faithless...
Scared
LENI (listen)
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
[lyrics 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
JOHNNY & MARY
(listen)
[lyrics by R.Palmer]
Johnny's always running
around, trying to find certainty.
He needs all the world to confirm, that he aint 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 aint lonely
Mary counts walls, says she should be use to it.

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, one more time for me
one more time for me, one more time for me
one more time for me, one more time for me
one more time for me, one more time for me
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

SLACKERBITCH (listen)
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
[lyrics by Morrissey & 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
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
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 (listen)
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

BEEN SMOKING TOO LONG
[lyrics by Robin Frederick]
'yeah, I really, um, 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...'
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?
yeah 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.
DARK GLOBE (listen)
[lyrics by S.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
with eskimo chain
I tattooed my brain all the way
Won't you miss me?
wouldn't you miss me at all?
Oh
Oh
Oh
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
blood, dive in
[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
blood, dive in

KANGAROO DIED
Well the doctor keeps me waitin'
The blood in my brain
The pain in my chest
Oh Oh Oh
Only happens when it's rainin'
The smoke in my lung
The beer in my gut
Oh Oh Oh
Feelin' like a motherfuck
The only way is down from here
Oh Oh Oh
Feelin' like a motherfuck
The only way is down from here
Oh Oh Oh
It's a nightmare in the alley
The undertaker's there
With his bowler hat
Oh Oh Oh
And his coffin eyes are empty
The ex-wife she's there too
Grinnin' like a Cheshire cat
Oh Oh Oh
And I'm feelin' like a motherfuck
The only way is down from here
Oh Oh Oh
Feelin' like a motherfuck
The only way is down from here
Oh Oh Oh
I'm tryin' to buy a drink
But the barmaid's cross-eyed
Why'd they let her work here?
Hell I just don't know
I find it hard to think
Since my kangaroo died
Why'd she have to leave me?
Hell I just don't know
I don't know
Well the priest is at the pulpit
Tellin me I'm wrong
Tellin me I'm sickening
Oh Oh Oh
To believe him is to forfeit
Everything I am
And everything I'll never be
Oh Oh
So I'm feelin' like a motherfuck
The only way is down from here
Oh Oh Oh
Feelin' like a motherfuck
The only way is down from here
Oh Oh Oh
I'm tryin' to buy a drink
But the barmaid's cross-eyed
Why'd they let her work here?
Hell I just don't know
I find it hard to think
Since my kangaroo died
Why'd she have to leave me?
Hell I just don't know
I don't know
Always were departed
Deep inside your heart
Always wanted to return
To your body
But I'm not sure again

Let me this story about this ambidextrous talk show host
that I used to live with who once told me that the sky was green.
I didn't believe him so I hit back with a short sharp shot
Disco me to oblivion baby.
He uh, couldn't appreciate my sense of humour
and that's when we started to grow apart.

Ohhh

No pain
No gain
Well things didn't improve for our relationship when I was seduced by his
wife
and then I fell in love with his daughter.
And I can't help who I fall in love with, ok?
Then one day I accidently castrated his prized poodle
with an electric can opener. OUCHA!
He kicked me out of the house and he burnt all my pictures
of his sweet Jimmy Dean.
