Bored

Well you get up in the morning and there's nothin' to do
I'm bored, I'm bored
You find no fun in the night time too
I'm bored, I'm bored

Bored bored, bored bored
I'm bored
Bored bored, bored bored
I'm bored

Got no cash so I can't get smashed
I'm bored, I'm bored
There's nothin' in my head so I stay in bed
I'm bored, I'm bored

Bored bored, bored bored
I'm bored
Bored bored, bored bored
I'm bored
Ho hum ho hum
I'm bored

Cool Bodies

Cool bodies
Float around inside my head
Cool bodies
Stare at me when I'm in bed
So tired, on and on the voices go
Tight-wired, chosen and I can't say no.

Oh I hear ya, yeah I hear ya, though I don't understand
Why you tell me what you tell me, I do as you command

Sinners in the market place
Sick boy overloading
I baptised them with lead
- I tried to save the world

Face At The Window

I wake when the women are sleepin'
I make, I make love to the moon
The playground and the shadows are lonely
But I'm fucked if I ever feel real when I'm out of the gloom

Under the cover of a cloak of night
Another pretty baby's gonna wake in fright, she say
'Hey daddy, ho daddy - face at the window
Hey daddy, ho daddy - head on my pillow'
'Pretty little baby' I say, as I drag her down
Down
You can blame it all on the modern world, oh yeah
You can blame it all on the modern world, oh yeah

Fire

Baby let me play my night song
Don't tell me it's a long way to go
Baby let me play my night song
Don't stop me cos I don't wanna know

Feel it comin' like a punk beat
Pretty baby, can you feel the heat
Hotter hotter, it's a heavy load
Light the fuse and let my head explode

Fire! Flames are gonna take you higher
High as a cathedral spire
Give in to your sweet desire
Light me now!

Heard It On The Radio

You - you said you'd stay
But we fell out along the way
Time, it went so slow
I couldn't think
What made you go

Heard it on the radio
Heard it on the radio
Heard it on the radio
Heard it on the radio

You - you said you'd stay
But we fell out along the way
Time, it went so slow
I couldn't think
What made you go

Heard it on the radio
Heard it on the radio
Heard it on the radio
Heard it on the radio

Natalie sleeps well tonight
Bed of stone and gown of white
Sleepin' through a million years
While my life
Dissolves in tears
Oh babe.

Bye, goodbye my love
Out of reach, up above
Sleep, come to me
Together we
We share the night
We share the night
We share the night
We share the night
Shotgun!

Heard it on the radio
Heard it on the radio
Heard it on the radio
Heard it on the radio

We share the night.

It's Over

The skies are grey
And the sun don't shine, my love
It's time to say
The last goodbye
Our promises are lost forever now
I'll never drown in your dark eyes again

It's over
It's over
Night is comin' on
It's over
It's over baby
Night is comin' on

Your spirit died
While your image lived, my love
I tried to run
There was no way out
I took the plunge
And I freed us both, my love
I'll never drown in your dark eyes again

It's over
It's over
Night is comin' on
It's over
It's over baby
Night is comin' on

The scattered trails I walk alone
The sea of blood and land of stone
And all those things we could have done
Too late, too late, my little one

It's over
It's over
Night is comin' on
It's over
It's over baby
Night is comin' on

Down ancient streets I knew in dreams
Where nothin's ever as it seems
I saw you standin' dressed in black
You spoke my name and pushed me back
But you'll never keep me out now

Here we go the the rocks below, and I
Fall so fast, yet I
Fall so slow, and I
Think I know that the end is soon, baby
Hear me please
Wait for me
For me

It's over
It's over
No time to think, no time to wonder why
It's over
Too late for turnin' back, to late to try
It's over
No time for talk, all words are doomed to lie
It's over
A time to live and now a time to
Fly.

Love Your Neighbour

Got no job and I'm 24
When I get bored I go next door
I don't need to look around
I love my neighbour - she gets down

Makin' love to the woman next door
My oh my, such a pretty whore
I go round and she gets down
Now her old man's leavin' town -
Bye bye

She says you're a randy cat
But you sure know where a good time's at
Baby do you wanna drink?
Yeah, I said - at your cunt I think

Makin' love to the woman next door
My oh my, such a pretty whore
I go round and she gets down
Now her old man's leavin' town -
Bye bye
Bye bye!

Beautiful doll
Oh you beautiful doll
Beautiful doll
Oh you beautiful doll
Oh I love ya pretty whore
Oh you beautiful doll
Oh I love ya pretty whore

Nothin' To Say

You took my food and you drank my wine
I done ya good, I made you mine
But somewhere babe I was a failure
And now I got nothin' so I'll see ya

Nothin'
I got nothin'
Nothin' left to say
Nothin'
I got nothin'
Nothin' left to say

Oh Baby

Oh baby I like your lips
Oh baby I like your hips
Oh baby I like your tits
But oh babe you're givin' me the shits!

Oh babe you're givin' me the shits
Oh babe you're givin' me the shits
Oh babe you're givin' me the shits
Well you better get down or don't come round
Yeah, don't come round if you won't get down.

Sister Claire

It's all around the convent
I'm ballin' Sister Claire
I got into the habit
And she let down her hair
Cmon little sinner
You'll never be missed
Cmon little Godchild
Come out and be kissed

She's fine, she's fine, she's as fine as fine can be
She's mine, she's mine, she's as mine as mine can be

I felled an angel
Angel you be mine
I felled an angel
Angel you be mine

Soul Sister Mary

Soul sister Mary
Soul sister Mary
Soul sister Mary in a rock n roll bar
Soul sister Mary
Soul sister Mary
Soul sister Mary
And she went too far

Can't stop - red light ahead
Can't stop - red light ahead

Strange Place of Love

Oh little darlin'
You gave me livin' in the dyin' hour
Oh little darlin'
You gave me shelter from the last shower
Oh little darlin'
You gave me truth when all I knew was doubt
Oh little darlin'
You gave me lovin' when I freaked out

And now I'm breakin' loose inside
The fears that I tried to hide
New yearning fillin' up the void
Kiss of life to a trust destroyed
The planets strike, the sun explodes
We stood alone at the dark crossroads
You took my hand and you led me back
Outta hell to a
Place of love, a strange
Place of love, a strange
Place of love, a strange
Dimension of the few.

Waves crashin'
Crashin' violent on the grey shore
Rain lashin'
Sky flashin' and the wild winds roar
Shoot the stars out
Sound the trumpets
Let the horsemen ride
It don't matter
Nothin' matters while you're by my side

Oh baby where did you come from?
You blow me like a nuclear bomb
We're soaring like a jet in flight
Sweet rapture in the panting night
The planets strike, the sun explodes
I stood alone at the dark crossroads
You took my hand and you led me back
Back in time to a
Place of love, a strange
Place of love, a strange
Place of love, a strange
Dimension of the few.

Sweet Suicide

Tonight I lay awake in my room
Hear you callin', wait I'm comin'
See a light through the gloom
Hear you callin', wait I'm comin'
Gonna stop the long climb
Hear you callin', wait I'm comin'
Suicide sublime

Gonna stop the pain
Wash it away in crimson rain
Tonight I'll be at your side
Tonight I face sweet suicide
Well all right

Tonight, I'll be with you tonight
Tonight, tonight tonight tonight

Sound of bells 'cross an endless sea
Hear you callin', wait I'm comin'
For whom they toll?
They toll for me
Hear you callin', wait I'm comin'
Gonna run with the ocean tide
Hear you callin', wait I'm comin'
Let the sunset be my guide
Hear you callin', wait I'm comin'

Gonna stop the pain
Wash it away in crimson rain
Tonight I'll be at your side
Tonight I face sweet suicide
Well all right

Tonight, I'll be with you tonight
Tonight, tonight tonight tonight

Take What's Owin'

Well they try to tell you what to do
But they wouldn't know what it's like to
Have it all but never get to use it
Ya serve a 3 course meal but ya have to eat shit
Watch out!
Watch out!

Tonight little baby in the corner
Gonna be a nice boy
Tell ya what you wanna hear before I destroy
You!
I'm gonna take you home
And when I shut the door...

I'm gonna take what's owin'
Sorry baby, can't stand no more so
When I shut the door
I'm gonna take what's owin'
I'm gonna take what's owin'
Sorry sorry sorry sorry

Teenage Lust

When you're up this high baby, don't look down
You're goin' too fast and you can't slow down
Don't say no and don't say maybe
You know you wanna be my baby

Flowin' like a river deep and wide
Hot as lava deep inside
Pounding hard like jungle drums
Hold on fast, baby here it comes, it's like
Teenage lust
It's like teenage lust
Like teenage lust
Like teenage lust

Baby, baby I'll do anything you want me to
Be your master, be your slave, I'll do it all for you
On your feet or on your knees
Any way you want, I'm beggin' please
And when you think we're through
I got some more for you.

Tiger tiger burning bright
In the darkness of the night
Feel his breath upon your back
Brace yourself for his attack
Banshees howlin' at the moon
They want you bad and they want you soon
Vampire forces breakin' loose
Don't resist it, it's no use, it's like
Teenage lust
It's like teenage lust
Like teenage lust
Like teenage lust

Baby, baby I'll do anything you want me to
Be your master, be your slave, I'll do it all for you
On your feet or on your knees
Any way you want, I'm beggin' please
And when you think we're through
I got some more for you.
