ZINC ALLOY & THE HIDDEN RIDERS OF TOMORROW
OR A CREAMED CAGE IN AUGUST

VENUS LOON

Goin' to see my baby in the afternoon,
Goin' to take my baby on a Venus loon

Slipshod gymslip in my neighbourhood,
Empty head, steel bed, Dipseys no good
All alone, no telephone, to hype up my baby,
Goin' to see my baby in the afternoon,
Goin' to take my baby on a Venus loon

Bent spent, psychedelic mailman's head,
Gorging up my spokes like the ghostly dead
Ally pally angel chewing up my blues,
Goin' to see my baby in the afternoon,
Goin' to take my baby on a Venus loon

Oh my Venus loon it'll make you swoon,
It'll make you feel good
It'll make you feel good
Oh my Venus loon it'll make you swoon,
It'll make you feel good
It'll make you feel good

First girl I ever met I don't recognise
Her nose is smashed her frame is bent
She's covered in flies
Everyone I ever loved, I'll love 'till I die
Goin' to see my baby in the afternoon,
Goin' to take my baby on a Venus loon

Oh my Venus loon it'll make you swoon,
It'll make you feel good
It'll make you feel good.
Oh my Venus loon it'll make you swoon,
It'll make you feel good
It'll make you feel good.

Repeat Verse 1

SOUND PIT

Basil Dazzle and her dissolving city
Stella Gazelle and the distraction I bought her
I wonder why, oh why

Debra Zebra and the disgusting gawk
Malice to Pallas at the all night palace, with Alice
I wonder why I wonder why

Metal Guru's in the loo with my glue, yeah,
Telegram Sam bought some land in Milan,
I wonder why

Thin faced Sally skinned a cat in my alley
Dawn sunstorm minister of doom, in your tomb
I wonder why
Lord I wonder why, I wonder why

EXPLOSIVE MOUTH

Now I'm poppin' a few in the morning dew
Do the monkey wrench,
on a persian bench it's a teenage night
and the vampires are right

And I want to lay my lips on your explosive mouth

Picked up Kenny at the art-deco deli,
And Zero is a cat with any automated hat
And I need to be rid of the fantasies I'm hiding

And I want to lay my lips on your explosive mouth

It's a shame for a man to hide all the things
that do survive from his past

When I jump on your horse I gallop the course,
And howl like a wolf and I drink up the sky
And I beat on my chest just to punk up the rest

And I want to lay my lips on your explosive mouth
And I want to lay my lips on your explosive mouth

It's a shame for a man to hide all the things
that do survive from his past

GALAXY

Which Galaxy are you from
Tell me how they bang a gong

Your world, I mean your world
Your world, I mean your world

Shadow in the alley at midnight
Metal clad rocker with bent teeth

My world, I mean my world
My world, I mean my world

My planets like an angel with clipped wings
A river bed dump shed sweetheart

Do they have sickness in society
Do they have glitter crap gaiety

Your world, I mean your world
Your world, I mean your world

CHANGE

Change change change see it all the time
Look look look
I could write a book about my life
Baby blue I love you
Look look look
I could write a book about my life

Change is coming just like the sun
Change is coming you better run

Baby blue I love you
Blue blue blue
I could write a book about your life

Change is coming just like the sun
Change is coming you better run

Change is coming just like the sun
Change is coming you better run

NAMELESS WILDNESS

I wouldn't lie

You're like a sanctuary,
a poet's memory
I wouldn't lie

A universe of happiness
beneath your be-bop dress
I wouldn't lie

And I love you, and I love you
'Cos you're my nameless wildness

You're like a precious book,
a stolen golden look
I wouldn't lie

So keep your consciousness
volcanoes in my breast
I wouldn't lie

And I love you, and I love you
'cos you're my nameless wildness

I wouldn't lie, I wouldn't lie
'Cos I love you, and I love you
'Cos you're my nameless wildness

I wouldn't lie * (Repeat to end)

TEENAGE DREAM

Whatever happened to the Teenage Dream

Surprise surprise, the boys are home
My guardian angel's rung down my telephone
The heat's on mister, can't you hear them scream
Whatever happened to the Teenage Dream

The curfew comes at the crack of light
The sad old wino aches to dissipate the fright
The jet junk jiver speeds past in his machine
Whatever happened to the Teenage Dream

A broken god from a musty world
Sweetly mouthed touched an onyx girl
His prison bars were very hard to clean
Whatever happened to the Teenage Dream -Yeah

The Wizard of Oz and the bronzen thief
Ruled my girl with teutonic teeth
But all was lost when her mouth turned green
Whatever happened to the Teenage Dream

Silver Surfer and the Ragged Kid
Are all sad and rusted boy, they don't have a gig
Believe me Pope Paul my toes are clean
Whatever happened to the Teenage Dream

Black is black and white is white
Some go to Heaven and some get it light
Nobody disapproves but his wicked screams
Whatever happened to the Teenage Dream -Yeah

LIQUID GANG

It's gonna be grand when you take
the hand of the liquid gang, oh yeah
Peter with the heater, he's such a messy eater
He's got frogs in his eyes from telling those lies
Sunday's almost Monday and you gotta understand
It's gonna be grand when you take
the hand of the liquid gang, oh yeah

Shelly 's silver belly, she's got me on the telly
Down with the dog he's a rockabilly yob
The kids are young, but that’s how we begun
You gotta understand when you take
the hand of the liquid gang, oh yeah

You're gonna be grand (x4)

Paladin heat with the dancing feet
Rides a two tone bike he does what he likes
But my head is alright but you're out of sight
But you gotta understand when you take
the hand of the liquid gang, oh yeah

You're gonna be grand (Repeat to end)

CARSMILE SMITH & THE OLD ONE

Carsmile Smith he's the old one
Don't you know he's the good one

Don'tcha, don'tcha

Bessy stood by the side of the grave
Like a woman of love would do
She hung her hands into a knot of grief
For a man she never knew
Carsmile Smith he's the old one
Don't you know that he's the good one

Don'tcha, don'tcha

Carsmile Smith he's the old one Don't you know he's the good one

Don'tcha, don'tcha

Like a woman of love would do
She hung her hands into a knot of grief
For a man she never knew

YOU'VE GOT TO JIVE TO STAY ALIVE

You gotta jive jive to stay alive
You gotta jive jive to stay alive

I'm a silver stud, I ain't no stick in the mud
And everything I do I do for you (Repeat)

You gotta jive jive to stay alive
You gotta jive jive to stay alive (Repeat verse and chorus)

SPANISH MIDNIGHT

Spanish Midnight
all I want to do is love you tonight (Repeat four times)

INTERSTELLAR SOUL

Running around in the dawn with that hat
I can see, I am no match for you
Doing the foxtrot on your knees-Garbo Girl,
It's so hard to contemplate you
'Cos you're so full of interstellar soul
'Cos you're so full of interstellar soul

That rich ditch won't catch me girl but it sculpted you
Silk and Diamond gilded gauntlet can be weird
But I'm scared to look like you
'Cos you're so full of interstellar soul
'Cos you're so full of interstellar soul

Lean on my head kiss my knee, breathe again
Bumble bee in my ear see a tear but it's solid and gold
I don't want to get like you
'Cos you're so full of interstellar soul
'Cos you're so full of interstellar soul
So full of interstellar soul (Repeat to end)

PAINLESS PERSUASION VS THE MEATHAWK IMMACULATE

It's gonna go, it's gonna go
It's gonna go, it's gonna go

I can see wild flame in front of me
I can see streets built on ebony
I can see men as big as cedar trees
What's goin' on

I can feel earthquakes inside of me
I can sense landslides of devilry
I can be everything that's been bad to me
What's goin' on

I say look to your soul, you better look to your soul
You better look to your soul, you better look to your soul

Or else it's gonna go It's gonna go (Repeat Verses 1 & 2)

It's gonna go (Repeat to end)

THE AVENGERS (SUPERBAD)

Superbad tiger running with your brain
Tucked beneath your arms like a devil train
When the angels from the heavens
Meet the angels from the earth
You'll hide inside your cave, that's right of course

And we know, we ain't slow, we're the avengers!

I have known lots of ladies and the ladies know me,
I've been foxy roxy punctured and I'm funky born free
You can needle treacle kiss me
With the honey from your mouth
But believe me I'm a bad moon bopster
And I'll never come in your house

And we know, we ain't slow, we're the avengers!

Dig this...

And we know, we ain't slow, we're the avengers!
And we know, we ain't slow, we're the avengers!

Dig this...

THE LEOPARDS FEATURING GARDENIA AND THE MIGHTY SLUG

We're the leopards (x3)

The leader of the pack lives down in the local drain,
We're the leopards
King Kong built a car inside his brain,
We're the leopards
You tell me who's the sexiest,
But why it's Gardenia & the Mighty Slug

We're the leopards

Old Doug Henry lost an ear when he crossed my path
We're the leopards
Called himself Jesus, well that's what he said to me
We're the leopards

I have never seen a freak look as weird as you
Except for Gardenia and the Mighty Slug
We're the leopards

Cycle Michael grotesque school desk in my brain
We're the leopards
Mincing Quincy dropping bop drops down the drain
We're the leopards

I'll just tell you boy we're mean and we're tough
Just like Gardenia and the Mighty Slug
We're the leopards

I know that we know that he know it's wrong
We're the leopards
To spend your life inside a song

Greasy Gert tried it and she licked it too
Just like Gardenia and the Mighty Slug
We're the leopards

Uncle Bimbo drunk up the sea of Galilee
And like a fool he promised it all to me
But I'm young and built of steel
Just like Gardenia and the Mighty Slug

Just like Gardenia and the Mighty Slug
Just like Gardenia and the Mighty Slug

We're the leopards (Repeat to end)
