STANDING THERE
Hey creepo's I'm talking to you
I've got a message to give to you
You've got a problem we know
but there's something you ought to know
Standing there across the thoroughfare
They stand and stare with that gormless air
so funny to see how dumb some grown men can be
An unwanted weed a dying reed
left to consider life as it passes by
Ignoring your calling ignoring your taunting
Ignoring your feeling of self hate and loathing
how empty and pointless your life must seem
See them standing
See them staring
See them wearing that same stupid face
Sticks and stones may break bones
but these taunting crones
only cause inner groans
we ignore all your calling
ignore all your taunting
ignore all your problems
of self hate and loathing
somebody should show them
where to go
See them standing
See them staring
See them wearing that same creepy face
Standing there in the thoroughfare
They stand and stare with that gormless air
Does what you won't understand
scare and make you mad?
resentful and envious
don't you disgust yourself?
so funny to see
how pathetic some men can be
See them standing
See them staring
See them wearing that same stupid face
Ignore all their calling
Ignore all their taunting
Ignore all their faking
their self hate and loathing
somebody should show them
where to go
WEATHERCADE
The weathercade is calling...
The weatherman's informing of a bright new day
There's no more gloomy weather
Forget that umbrella
No more diseases sneezing at this century
The dalek drones are drowning
We're flying we're climbing
Cars sit corroding as we soar away
Waltzers on the rooftops
aspinning with side hops
Ugly concrete towers are now bright arcades
Weathercade...
These shows have done some walking
Hear them talking
These shoes will last forever
They're made that way
The weatherman is calling...
The weatherman's informing of a bright new day...
Weathercade...
Calling - Weathercade....
SO UNREAL
What can I do - I know they've gotten to you
When you say that your whites
have an aerial blue
What's happened to you - since I last saw you
I thought I knew your name - but it's not you
but it's not you
You're talking in a balloon
in this tidy room
sounding like a commercial
for a serial
I wish you could feel the way that I feel
I wish you could feel but you're so unreal
so unreal
What can I say - what can I say
all the traits you had have all gone away
get up and wash at the right time of day
and greet the world with the right things to say
what can I say - what can I say
You're so ideal - you're never down at heel
you're so ideal - but you're so unreal
I wish you could feel - the way that I feel
I wish you could feel - but you're so unreal
you're so unreal |
FURY EYES
Punch me judy make me cry
you'll disappear and then I'll die
A love that's lost always returns
to feed the fire a heart that burns
There's no sleep for fury eyes
so deep are the the eyes of fury
Watching faces changing places
running rings around the moon
exchanging glances taking chances
did we laugh and sing too soon
Our stomachs turn on a fever stream
but with no mosquito bite
rabid kisses in a dream
still we can't escape the sight
There's no sleep for fury eyes
so deep are the eyes of fury
Tonight they exorcise the ghost
of love from it's unyielding host
if that don't suit you scream and shout
if thine offend thee pluck it out
Alone in love with the other one
the one who doesn't know
and when we dance with the other one
the eyes of fury glow
Tonight they exorcise the ghost
of love from its unyielding host
if that don't suit you scream and shout
if thine offend thee pluck it out
Who'll weep for the fury eyes
beholding love a thing of beauty
there's no sleep for fury eyes
so deep are the eyes of fury
MISS THE
GIRL
Kiss the girl - Kiss the girl
Hands across the steering wheel
caress the shiny vinyl feel
Don't you miss the girl?
Miss the girl?
Seduced reflection in the chrome
there's petrol stains outside your home
Kiss the girl - Kiss the girl
Your loving strokes are fatal charms
revenge bites back into her arms
You didn't miss the girl - You hit the girl
You hit her with a force of steel
She's wrapped around your burning wheels
Kiss the girl - Miss the girl
Kiss the girl - Miss the girl
Kiss the girl - Miss the girl
Kiss the girl - Miss the girl
BUT NOT THEM
She hates the man and he hates the man
because something strong inside
has been denied them
but not him - Oh not him
He hates the girl and she hates the girl
because something weak implied
they fought to push aside them
but not her - Oh not her
The girl isn't alive - but the man is dead
because it's all been said before
The girl isn't alive - but the man is dead
because you only have your mentor
to draw - you whore
dead lumps of meat melt in this heat
dead lumps of meat melt in this heat
She hates the man and he hates the man
because something strong inside
has been denied them
but not him - Oh not him
He hates the girl and he hates the girl
because something weak implied
they fought to push aside them
but not her - Oh not her
The girl isn't alive - but the man is dead
because it's all been said befor
The girl isn't alive - but the man is dead
because you only have your mentor
to draw from
dead lumps of meat melt in this heat
dead lumps of meat melt in this heat |
RIGHT NOW
Let me take you by the hand
Right now
Put your lips at my command
Right now
Fly me off to lover's land
Baby don't you leave me at the post
Kiss me you can feel it coast to coast
Right now
Baby need your love the most
You have set my soul on fire
Only you can satisfy this great desire
Right now
Let the fool world break in two
Right now
Stars can tumble from the blue
Right now
Just as long as I'm with you
Right now
It's the time and it's the place
Right now
For a ride to outer space
Right now
Let me have that wild embrace
You have set my soul on fire
Only you can satisfy this great desire
One time
Let the wine of love flow free
One time
Be the lover you can be
Right now
Come and give yourself to me.....
MAD EYED SCREAMER
Platform ranting in the trees
disturbed voices on the breeze
huddled 'round the mad eyed screamer
Mad eyed screamer - Mad eyed screamer
a pointed finger - the tin can schemer
Mad eyed screamer -the corner speaker
Could be a preacher - could be a teacher
you want the world to meet your maker
now the lecher transforms the traitor
with a petrol flaring eye...
Come and see the corner speaker
come and hear his suit dripdry
the passers-by - have one obsession
to hear his raving to the sky
Mad eyed screamer on your knees
Mad eyed screamer you are not pleased
with the chatter in the trees
your balls are freezing in the breeze
Mad eyed screamer - Mad eyed screamer
Mad eyed screamer - Mad eyed screamer
your balls are freezing in the breeze
Mad eyed screamer you are not pleased
THUMB
Wandering through the narrow thorough-fare,
the motorway is standing on its own,
I see me walking there...
One for the road-one for the road,
my thumbs have dropped me on the road,
the headlights find my load, following signs
and always taking my time, following signs
these thumbs have lights of their own,
one more for the road, just one more for the road,
digital fun in the sun follow my thumb,
follow my thumb,
these thumbs are my guns
see them dance when I'm blue,
this beacon is my fare,
anytime, anywhere,
take a ride by a side in the day or the night,
travelling through - some old, some new -
just one more for the road,
just another one for the road,
jump inside little girl take a ride by my side,
there's no end to this ride with this stranger tonight,
there was just one more for the road,
just another one for the road,
digital fun in the sun,
follow my thumb, follow my thumb,
digital fun in the sun
follow my thumb... follow my thumb...
follow my thumb...
WILD THING
I think I hate you...
...so come on hit me hard...
...I love you... |
