Today is gonna be the day
That they're gonna throw it back to you By now you should've somehow Realised what you gotta do I don't believe that anybody Feels the way I do about you now *And all the roads we have to walk are winding And all the lights that lead us there are blinding There are many things that I would Like to say to you but I don't know how ...that saves me |

In my mind.
And nailed into my hands All the time Killing what I fed And everything I touch turns to stone. (all wrapped up in crinoline, all wrapped up in suger-coated) And everything I touch turns to stone. (all wrapped up in crinoline, all wrapped up in suger-coated) I am fused Just in case I blow out I am glued Just in case I crack out And everything I touch turns to stone. (all wrapped up in crinoline, all wrapped up in suger-coated) And everything I touch turns to stone. (all wrapped up in crinoline, all wrapped up in suger-coated) |

rows of houses all bearing down on me
i can feel their blue hands touching me all these things in all positions all these things will one day take control * and fade out again and fade out again this machine will will not communicate these thoughts and the strain i am under be a world child form a circle before we all go under * Repeat cracked eggs dead birds scream as they fight for life i can feel death can see it's beady eyes all these things into frution all these things we'll one day swallow whole * Repeat immerse your soul in love |

Two jumps in a week,
I bet you think that's pretty clever don't you boy? Flying on your motorcycle, watching all the ground beneath you drop You'd kill yourself for recognition, kill yourself to never, ever stop You broke another mirror, you're turning into something you are not * Don't leave me high, don't leave me dry Don't leave me high, don't leave me dry Drying up in conversation, you'll be the one who cannot talk All your insides fall to pieces, you just sit there wishing you could still make love They're the ones who'll hate you when you think you've got the world all sussed out They're the ones who'll spit on you, you'll be the one screaming out * Repeat Oh, it's the best thing that you ever had, the best thing that you ever, ever had. It's the best thing that you ever had, the best thing you have had has gone away. Don't leave me high, don't leave me dry Don't leave me high, don't leave me dry Don't leave me high, Don't leave me high, don't leave me dry |

Red wine and sleeping pills
Help me get back to your arms Cheap sex and sad films Help me get where I belong I think you're crazy, maybe I think you're crazy, maybe Stop sending letters Letters always get burned It's not like the movies They fed us on little white lies I think you're crazy, maybe I think you're crazy, maybe I will see you in the next life Early version has a second verse: Beautiful angel Pulled apart at birth Limbless and helpless I can't even recognize you I think you're crazy, maybe (x6) I will see you in the next life |

A green plastic watering can
For a fake chinese rubber plant In the fake plastic earth That she bought from a rubber man In a town full of rubber plans To get rid of itself It wears her out, it wears her out It wears her out, it wears her out She lives with a broken man A cracked polystyrene man Who just crumbles and burns He used to do surgery On girls in the eighties But gravity always wins And it wears him out, it wears him out It wears him out, it wears him out She looks like the real thing She tastes like the real thing My fake plastic love But I can't help the feeling I could blow through the ceiling If I just turn and run And it wears me out, it wears me out It wears me out, it wears me out And if I could be who you wanted If I could be who you wanted All the time, all the time |

I get home from work
and you're still standing in your dressing gown, Well what am I to do? I know all the things around your head and what they do to you. What are we coming to? What are we gonna do? Blame it on the black star, Blame in on the falling sky, Blame in on the satellite, that beams me home. The trouble words of a troubled mind, I try to understand what is eating you. I try to stay awake, but it's 58 hours since that I last slept with you. What are we coming to? I just don't know anymore Blame it on the black star, Blame in on the falling sky, Blame in on the satellite, that beams me home. I get on the train and I just stand about now that I don't think of you. I keep falling over, I keep passing out, when I see a face like you. What am I coming to? I'm gonna melt down. Blame it on the black star, Blame in on the falling sky, Blame in on the satellite, that beams me home |

Rows of houses all bearing down on me
I can feel their blue hands touching me All these things into position All these things we'll one day swallow whole And fade out again and fade out This machine will not communicate These thoughts and the strain I am under Be a world child, form a circle Before we all go under And fade out again and fade out again Cracked eggs, dead birds Scream as they fight for life I can feel death, can see it's beady eyes All these things into position All these things we'll one day swallow whole And fade out again and fade out again Immerse your soul in love Immerse your soul in love. |

The breath of the morning,
I keep forgetting The smell of the warm summer air. I live in a town Where you can't smell a thing, You watch your feet For cracks in the pavement. Up above, aliens hover Making home movies for the folk back home. Of all these weird creatures who lock up their spirits, Drill holes in themselves and live for their secrets. They're all... Uptight. I wish that they'd swoop down, in a country lane, Late at night when I'm driving. Take me onboard their beautiful ship, show me the world as I'd love to see it. I'd tell all my friends but they'd never believe me They'd think that I'd finally lost it completely. I'd show them the stars, and the meaning of life. They'd shut me away, but I'd be alright. Alright. I'm just... Uptight! |

Been thinking about you
Your records are here Your eyes are on my wall Your teeth are over there But I'm still no one And you're a star What do you care? Been thinking about you And there's no rest Should I still love you Still see you in bed But I'm playing with myself What do you care? When the other men are far far better All the thing's you've got All the things you need Who bought you cigarettes You bribed the company to come and see you honey Been thinking about you So how can you sleep These people aren't your friends They're paid to kiss your feet They don't know what I know And why should you care When I'm not there Been thinking about you And there's no rest Should I still love you Still see you in bed But I'm playing with myself What do you care? When I'm not there All the things you've got You'll never need All the things you've got I pain and I bleed to please you Been thinking about you |

can't get the stink off,
he's been hanging around for days. comes like a comet, suckered you but not your friends. one day he'll get to you, teach you how to be a holy cow. don't get my sympathy hanging out the 15th floor. you've changed the locks 3 times, he still comes reeling through the door. and soon he'll get to you, teach you how to get to purest hell. you do it to yourself you do and that's what really hurts is you do it to yourself just you, you and no-one else you do it to yourself. |

Limb by limb, tooth by tooth
Tearing up inside of me Every day, every hour I wish that I was bullet proof Wax me, mould me Heat the pins and stab them in You have turned me into this Just wish that it was bullet proof, was bullet proof So pay the money and take a shot Lead-fill the hole in me I could burst a million bubbles All surrogate and bullet proof And bullet proof And bullet proof And bullet proof |

To hard on the brakes again,
What if these brakes just give in? What if they don't get outta the way? What if there's someone overtaking? I'm going out on a little drive, and it could be the last time I see you alive There could be an idiot on the road, The only kick in life is pumping that steel. Lock me up in the back of the trunk, packed with foam and blind drunk. They won't ever catch me alive, cause they all drive.. Don't die on the motorway, The moon would freeze, the plants would die, I couldn't cope if you crashed today, All the things I forgot to say, I'm going out on the little drive, and it could be the last time I see you alive, There could be an idiot on the road, the only kick in life if pumping that steel, Lock me up in the back of the trunk, packed with foam and blind drunk. They won't ever catch me alive, cause they all drive... Killer Cars.. yeah.. Hey hey, hey hey, hey hey, hey.. hey.. Wrap me up in the back of a trunk, packed with foam and blind drunk. They won't ever catch me alive, cause they all drive... Killer Cars... They all drive... Killer Cars They all driiiive....... Killer Cars |

In the next world war
In a jackknifed juggernaut, I am born again. In the neon sign, scrolling up and down I am born again. In an interstella burst.... I am back to save the uuuuuniverse. In a deep deep sleep, of the innocent I am born again. I a fast german car, I'm amazed that I survived An airbag saved my life. In an interstella burst.... I am back to save the uuuuuniverse. In an interstella burst.... I am back to save the uuuuuniverse. |
