I'm not running away
I'm running to Corruption of the spirit isn't in it For a good looking man about town Are you afraid of someone alive? Are you feeling heartbroken Because you'll never be mistaken for a Good looking man about town? You got your degree Then you flew to Mars But you still feel wretched 'cause You'll never be naked with a Good looking man about town Are you afraid of someone alive? Are you scared to death Of even looking at the flesh of a Good looking man about town? Hear the gang say Marry me, marry me On the midnight street No moon and no stars No one around to calm you down And to soften the stings to my heart The dream is sand in my hands The dream becomes sand in my hands |

Reflecting from my deathbed
I'm balancing life's riches against the ditches and the flat gray years in-between all I can see are the never-laid that's the never played symphonies I can't see those who tried to love me or those who felt they understood me and I can't see those who very patiently put up with me All I can see are the never-laid or the never played symphonies You were one, you meant to be one and you jumped into my face and laughed and kissed me on the cheek and then were gone forever not quite Black sky in the daytime and I don't much mind dying when there is nothing left to care for anymore just the never layed the never played symphonies You were one, you knew you were one and you slid right through my fingers no not literally but metaphorically and now you're all I see as the light fades |

Sweetie pie
I've fallen in love. And the joke is on me. And the sun's given up. I'm depending on you, To see I get safely to The port where my heart Is too lost to find. And will be there to meet you when its your time. Sweetie pie I'm ending my life. Because I've fallen in love. And nothing is enough. To see I get safely to The port where my heart Is too lost to find. And will be there to meet you when its your time Sweetie pie. How I feel in my mind, And how I live in he world, They are oceans apart. To see I get safely to The port where my heart Is too lost to find. And will be there to meet you when its your time. |

Christian Dior
You wasted your life On aroma and clothes Fabric and dyes Christian Dior You wasted your life On grandeur and style Making the poor rich smile You could have run wild On the backstreets of Lyon or Marseille Reckless and legless and stoned Impregnating women Or kissing mad street boys from Napoli Who couldn't even write their own name Christian Dior You wasted your life Sensually stroking the weaves of a sleeve. You could have run wild On the backstreets of Lyon or Marseille Reckless and legless and stoned Impregnating women Or kissing mad street boys from Napoli Who couldn't even spell their own name Oh, Christian Dior Oh, Christian Dior When you look at me Failure is all that you see I discipline my days just like Christian Dior I could've run loudly and proudly Or forcible entry Morally bankrupt And never non-violent And drawn to what scares me And scared of what bores me Years alone will never be returned. Christian Dior Lyonise maverick, ah Design if you can, ah The way to just be a man, ah To just be a man, ah Christian Dior |

We love them
We mourn for them Unlucky boys of red I wish I'd gone down Gone down with them To where mother nature makes their bed We miss them Every night we kiss them Their faces fixed in our heads I wish I'd gone down Gone down with them To where mother nature makes their bed They can't hurt you Their style will never desert you Because they're all safely dead I wish I'd gone down Gone down with them |

And how precisely could you tell A decent skin is all I am? People think badly of me But one day maybe they'll praise Oh but meanwhile...

Children in pieces
In Irish industrial schools Nuns called mothers And their christian brothers Kick the shit out of very frightened children Judges and priests and police and cardinals They look the other way When the weekend comes they'll make you suffer Children in pieces In Irish industrial schools Nuns called mothers And their christian brothers Kick the shit out of very frightened children You say you wanna go home You say you wanna be left alone And so you turn to me But instead of sympathy I find My sentimental heart hardens My sentimental heart hardens Get your hands off me Kid, you must be bad luck My sentimental heart hardens |

Friday mourning, I'm dressed in black
Douse the houselights, I'm not coming back For years, I warned you Through tears, I told you Friday mourning, there comes a time Before that breaks this very smug mug of mine This dawn raid soon put paid to All the things I'd whispered to you At night time And I will never stand naked in front of you Or if I do, it won't be for a long time Look once to me, look once to me Then look away Look once to me, then look away And when they hold me down And when they kick me down the stairs I see the faces all lined up before me Of teachers and of parents and bosses Who all share a point of view You are a loser You are a loser Friday, Friday mourning Dressed in black I won't be coming back |

Let me put my arms around your head
It's hot, let's go to bed Don't forget to turn on the light Don't laugh, this will be alright Pour me out another phone I'll ring and see if your friends are home The strange ones in the dome Can lend us a book we can read up alone And try to get it on like once before When people stared in David's eyes and scored Like the video films we saw His name was always Buddy And he'd shrug and ask to stay She'd sigh like Twig the Wonder Kid And turn her face away. She's uncertain if she likes him But she knows she really loves him It's a crash course for the ravers It's a Drive-in Saturday Jung, the foreman, prayed at work That neither hands nor limbs would burst It's hard enough to keep formation With this fall-out saturation Cursing at the Internet That stands in steel by his cabinet (He's crashing out with Sylvain The Bureau supply for aging men) You don't really like this song, do you ? Do you ? Do you ? With snorting head he gazes to the shore Which once had raised a sea that raged no more Like the video films he saw His name was always Buddy And he'd shrug and ask to stay And she'd sigh like the Wonder Kid And turn her face away She's uncertain if she likes him But she know she really loves him It's a crash course for the ravers It's a Drive-In Saturday His name was always Buddy And he'd shrug and he'd ask to stay And she'd sigh like the Wonder Kid And turn her face away She's uncertain if she likes him She know she really loves him It's a crash course for the ravers It's a Drive-In Saturday It's a Drive-In Saturday It's a Drive-In Saturday It's a Drive-In Saturday It's a Drive-In Saturday |

Because of my poor education
I don't expect your invitation A ship lost inches away from the bay Because of my poor education I can't endure my situation This here is my bed and I must lie Because of this strange indentation I live my life without affection Kind-hearted, view me and say "Thank God that's not me" Once I was sure I had found my hero And I allowed myself to think so Reality is not real to me |
