60 Ft. Dolls--The Big 3

HAPPY SHOPPER

the high street scene caught in between
the perfect broken plan
with the carpet burns we take our turns
Julie is a man

Inside the shop we take our stock
the curtain starts to move
she drags her feet along the street
and the neighbours disapprove

she's a happy shopper
the happy shopper
we are happy shoppers
the happy shopper

the husband's pissed
the kids are kissed
the place is a mess
the queue is still up to the till
she's trying on a dress

Julie, Julie, Julie, can't you fight
the working class can kiss my ass
if the price is right

CHORUS

come on, come on, come on down

CHORUS


STAY

well, I don't know what to do 
cos I'm stone in love with you
so do you think it'd be alright
if I could stay the night

I got a bust up forty five
playing sounds on soul live
well do you think it'd be alright
if I could stay the night

well I won't keep hanging on
and I hate to live alone
so do you think it would be OK
if I could stay

CHORUS

if I could stay

crashing out and killing time
feeling like a stupid child
build it up and paint it blue
send it to you

I got a bust up forty five
it's playing sounds on soul live
well do you think it would be OK
if I could stay

CHORUS

Now I won't keep hanging on
and I hate to live alone
so do you think it would be OK
if I could stay

I'll be around today
so you could stick with me or turn away
I'll be around today so you can stick
with me or go

well I don't know what to do
cos I'm stone in love with you
so do you think it would be alright
if I could stay the night

I got a bust up forty five
playing sounds on soul live
well, do you think it'd be alright
if I could stay the night


PIG VALENTINE

it's better now the thorn is out
so climb inside somewhere to hide
I thought I knew you
and I know it's going wrong
the devil on my shoulder
buys me drinks

so, I don't care
the angel slipped
he lost his grip
I am headed straight 
for you know where

pig valentine make it happen
all the time
and she does it when she does
and I love the way she loves

down in the basement flat
the girl she waits, anticipates
Athena postcards that are
blue-tacked to the wall
the hand that shakes the coffee cup
it brings the morning down
she's headed for the kitchen door
the hardest part of all 
is coming round

CHORUS


THE ONE

well I think you should cos
my heart is gone
and the secret's out
it's all over town
said, of course, the one that
you're looking for is me

when the day drags on cos
the boys are gone
and your tiny room is suffocating you
said, of course, the one that
you're looking for is me

you got to be so much
better than the rest
that's what it takes to carry on
you should see her come
you should see her go
you should see my face
when she says no
said, of coursee, the one that
you're looking for is me

you've got to be so much 
better than the rest
that's what it takes to carry on
when the day drags on cos
the boys have gone
and your tiny room
is suffocating you
said, of course, the one that 
you're looking for is me

you got to be so much
better than the rest
that's what it takes to carry on
you should see her come
you should see her go
you should see my face
when she says no
said, of course, the one that
you're looking for is me

I'm the one

said, of course, the one that
you are looking for


HAIR

love your hair
it makes me smile
my stupid smile
what you wear gives a twist
oh, what is this

love your hair and
everything below it
I don't care if you cut it
or grow it
was a time you went around
with what you found
you never shine
it doesn't mean
you've never seen

was a time you came here
looking for it
and everytime just trying
to ignore it

coming down
shake off the world
it takes the piss
they should have
killed the monkey
that evolved to this

think about it
when you know
you're halfway there
come around and feel
there's something in the air

love your hair
it makes me smile
my stupid smile
what you wear gives a twist
oh, what is this

love your hair it
makes me smile
my stupid smile
what you wear gives a twist
oh, what is this


TALK TO ME

flying in the shadow of 
a changing world
waiting for the sun to arrive
thirty thousand feet and
I'm rising fast
I'm driving full fathom five

You're the only person that
I care about
I want to hitch a ride
on your plane
I don't know the reason
that you're
holding out
It's cos I want
to fly you again

You can talk
you can talk
you can talk to me
I believe in you
do you believe in me?
you can talk to me

lying to your face is such
an easy game
the violet in your eye
is a dream
the acid sky is nearly 
close enough to touch
the gold you smell
is nicotine

CHORUS

I'm the only person
I care about
I want to hitch a ride
on your plane
I don't know the reason that
you're holding out
I wanna fly you again

CHORUS


STREAMLINED

Streamlined
again thinking of
taking it higher
finding out then that you
were a liar
I see the city sights
I see the pretty lights
I want to be wild
and free again

Mary goes round,
drugs made Mary vague
shee how she cries my little
methadone maid
up in heaven tonight
yeah, the firmaments bright
I want to be wild
and free again

caught between the shadows
and the light
the white moon unpicks you
and shows all your scars
to the night
streamlined again out of sight

blue movies and boxes piled
up in a heap
by the door
electric and blue like
the ghosts of
your lovers before
I see the city lights
shine pretty lights
I want to be wild and
free again

I want to be so wild
I want to be so wild
I want to be wild
and free again


LOSER

how do you look so good
you're so clever, clever
bet you know the names
of the stars
perfect little thing
you're a mirror mover

see yourself in passing cars
give me what I want
just to stop me thinking
I get you everything you need
you may be mad at me
but at least it's easy
the kissing makes
the bruises bleed

don't you know that everyone
loves a loser
standing up and falling apart
it's getting good cos everyone 
loves a loser
big, sick city heart

you get a little sick when you
spend your plastic
acting out your sticky scene
there's no one looking now
so you suck your fingers

got to keep them nice and clean
how do you get away without
being noticed
looking like you've seen it all
put you in my pocket and
take you home now
put you to the wall

CHORUS

and when you're 
crawling around
down on the ground
with the people you know
in the places you go
crawling around down
on the ground
thinking it's getting good
'cause everyone
loves a loser
big, sick city heart

CHORUS

don't you know?


NEW LOAFERS

sitting on my sofa waiting
for my chauffeur
along came a copper
told me it was over
PC Amanda pretty as a panda
would you like some
ice and lemon with your Fanta

it's nothing at all
we've having a ball

didn't get warning before they
kicked the door in
stupid little stars burn up
in the morning
got a can of cider,
had a chicken tikka
then I won a trip for two 
in sunny Costa Rica

CHORUS

sitting on my sofa
waiting for my chauffeur
along came a copper
told me it was over

CHORUS


GOOD TIMES

hey, don't you know what's going on
take a look round the streets
where you were born
you could spend some time picking
hearts and flowers
you can live your life in
an ivory tower

or you could try to shout
you could work it out
you could fake it or just
let it all hang out
sell your soul, let the 
good times roll
let the good times roll

ride on the light until the fade
from the wild and the blue and the
slightly dazed
you could have a message 
on the telephone
you could tell me about it on the 
last bus home

now that you got seen with
a new machine
it's amazing how the powder gets
your whites so clean
sell your soul, let the
good times roll
let the good times roll

gold is the colour of the sun
have you got what it 
takes to carry on
cos when the bubble bursts
with the latest trend
and the drinks run out
and the party ends

you could try to shout
you could work it out
you could take it or
just let it all hang out
sell your soul
let the good times roll
let the good times roll


NO. 1 PURE ALCOHOL

you know that feeling
there upon the ceiling
soon you're gonna be a man
you've gotta
twist that throttle
drink that bottle
boy, you'll be a superman

the world is waiting
your heart is shaking
you're drowning but 
at least you're clean
but living's easy
dying's easy
something in between
to thrill me

no. 1 pure alcohol
I fuel you up
you fool yourself
you pick me up
can't put me down
I'm gone

kicking down the morning
getting up and crawling
feed the monster 
in my mouth
I want to free my body
shackled up behind me
bring it up 
and let it out

the more you take 
the more you want
the more you get it wrong
but living's easy
dying's easy
something in between 
to thrill me

CHORUS

living's easy
dying's easy
something in between

CHORUS


TERMINAL CRASH FEAR

a kissagram man, he's about
25 years of age, yeah
he hits it around
he went for a peach
but it's just out of reach
because it fell to the ground
wake up, head on the wheel
stitched up, tell me,
how does it feel?

didn't anybody try to tell ya
didn't anybody try to see
didn't anybody try to warn you
what are you doing to me

she can't get enough of
that serious stuff
so she hits him around
I'm driving too fast
I'm on a terminal crash
and my foot's to the ground
I hit, hit, hit, hit
hit it around

I'm going to feed till
I get my fill
I'm taking my girl
up to doghill
hit it around
turn it up, turn it up
turn up your radio

didn't anybody try to tell ya
didn't anybody try to see
didn't anybody try to warn you
what are you doing to me


BUZZ

going out
on a different buzz
running down
but I know someone
who'll get plenty more
going out on a different
kind of buzz

I could rise
I could almost fly
close my eyes
and I'll wake up
one day tied to the sky
I could rise
I could almost fly

try to find a reason
climb inside the feeling
we could rise on a 
different kind of buzz

this is it
this is what you get
forget the rest
take some time off
and make it the best
this is it
this is what you get

try to find a reason

climb inside the feeling

going out
on a different buzz
running down
but I know someone
who'll get plenty more
going out on a 
different kind of buzz
