Well we're a mile under the ground And I'm thinking that it's Christmas And I'm kissing you hard Like I've got very important business And no one knows and no one sees us Because they're drinking their selves senseless
And I'm writhing And I'm writhing And I'm writhing in the snakepit
Well I'm out in a car And it's just full of stupid girls And I've forgotten how to speak And I just can't remember a word And my eyes feel like they're bursting And they're splitting like plums
And I'm writhing And I'm writhing And I'm writhing in the snake pit
You're such a strange girl I think you come from another world You're such a strange girl I really don't understand a word You're such a strange girl I'd like to shake you around and around You're such a strange girl
I'd like To turn you All upside down You're such a Strange girl The way you look like you do You're such a strange girl I want To be with you
I think I'm falling I think I'm falling in I think I'm falling in love with you With you
She walked out of her house And looked around at all the gardens That looked back at her house Like all the faces that quiz when you smile
And he was standing at the corner Where the road turned dark A part of shiny wet Like blood the rain fell black down on the street
And kissed his feet she fell Her head an inch away from heaven And her face pressed tight And all around the night sang out like cockatoos
"There are a thousand things" he said "I'll never say those things to you again" And turning on his heel He left a trace of bubbles bleeding in his stead
And in her head A picture of a boy Who left her lonely in the rain And all around the night sang out like cockatoos
Tonight I'm feeling like an animal Tonight I'm howling inside Tonight I'm feeling like an animal Tonight I'm going wild
And all I want Is to be with you again And all I want Is to hold you like a doll And all I want Is to be with you again With you again Just to hold you like a doll
Tonight I'm screaming like an animal Tonight I'm losing control Tonight I'm screaming like an animal Tonight I'm getting so low
And all I want Is to be with you again And all I want Is to hold you like a doll And all I want Is to be with you again With you again Just to hold you like a doll
the first time i saw lightning strike i saw it underground six deep feet below the street the sky came crashing down for a second that place was lost in space then everything went black i left that basement burning and i never went back
the second time i saw it strike i saw it at sea it lit up all the fish like rain and rained them down on me for a second that boat was still afloat then everything went black i left it underwater and i never went back
hey hey hey!!! but i like it when that lightning comes hey hey hey!!! yes ilike it a lot hey hey hey!!! yes i'm jumping like a jumping jack dancing screaming itching squealing fevered feeling hot hot hot!!!
the third time i saw lightning strike it hit me in bed it threw me around and left me for dead for a second that room was on the moon then everything went black i left that house on fire and i never went back
hey hey hey!!! but i like it when that lightning comes hey hey hey!!! yes ilike it a lot hey hey hey!!! yes i'm jumping like a jumping jack dancing screaming itching squealing fevered feeling hot hot hot!!!
You're just a waste of time You're just a babbling face You're just three sick holes that run like sores You're a fucking waste
You're like a slug on the floor Oh you're useless and ugly and useless and ugly And I shiver and shake When I think of how you make me hate
I want to smash you to pieces I want to smash you up and screaming I want to smash you helpless down on the floor Smash you until you're not here anymore
If only tonight we could sleep In a bed made of flowers If only tonight we could fall In a deathless spell If only tonight we could slide Into deep black water And breathe And breathe
Then an angel would come With burning eyes like stars And bury us deep In his velvet arms
And the rain would cry As our faces slipped away And the rain would cry Don't let it end
show me show me how you do that trick the one that makes me scream she said the one that makes me laugh she said and threw her arms around my neck
show me how you do it and i promise you i promise that i'll run away with you i'll run away with you
spinning on that dizzy edge i kissed her face and kissed her head and dreamed of all the different ways i had to make her glow why are you so far away? she said why won't you ever know that i'm in love with you? that i'm in love with you?
you soft and only you lost and lonely you strange as angels dancing in the deepest oceans twisting in the water you're just like a dream... you're just like a dream...
daylight licked me into shape i must have been asleep for days and moving lips to breathe her name i opened up my eyes and found myself alone alone alone above a raging sea that stole the only girl i loved and drowned her deep inside of me
you soft and only you lost and lonely you just like heaven
You're delicious Dreaming Slack jawed Green eyed Rub my nose in icing sugar Smooth as When this cold and deadly blade Kisses the fruit So soft and gently breathing Under your skin
Oh I'll empty you I'll empty you As empty as a boy can be
And I'd love to touch the sky tonight I'd love to touch the sky So take me in your arms And lift me like a child And hold me up so high And never let me go Take me take me in your arms tonight
Hold me hold me up so high And never let me down Hold me hold me up so high To touch the sky just one more time
Take me in your arms tonight Take me in your arms just one more time
You want to know why I hate you Well I'll try and explain Remember that day in paris When we wandered through the rain And promised to each other That we'll always think the same And dreamed that dream to be two souls as one
And stopped just as the sun set And waited for the night Aside a gliterring building Of glittering glass and burning light
And in the road before us Stood a weary grayish man He held a child upon his back A small boy by the hand The three of them were dressed in rags And thinner than air And all six eyes stared fixedly on you
The father's eyes said "Beautiful! How beautiful you are!" The boy's eyes said "How beautiful! She shimmers like a star!" The child's eyes eyes said nothing But a mute and utter joy And filled my heart with shame for us At the way we are
I turned to look at you To read my thoughts upon your face And gazed so deeply into your eyes So beautiful and strange Till you spoke and showed me understanding is a dream "I hate these people staring Make them go away from here"
The father's eyes said "Beautiful! How beautiful you are!" The boy's eyes said "How beautiful! She glitters like a star!" The child's eyes eyes said nothing But a quiet and utter joy And filled my heart with sadness For the way we are
And this is why I hate you And how I understand That no one ever knows or loves another Or loves another
Well we're a mile under the ground And I'm thinking that it's Christmas And I'm kissing you hard Like I've got very important business And no one knows and no one sees us Because they're drinking their selves senseless
And I'm writhing And I'm writhing And I'm writhing in the snakepit
Well I'm out in a car And it's just full of stupid girls And I've forgotten how to speak And I just can't remember a word And my eyes feel like they're bursting And they're splitting like plums
And I'm writhing And I'm writhing And I'm writhing in the snake pit

yeah i know who you remind me of a girl i think i used to know yeah i'd see her when the days got colder on those days when it felt like snow
you know i even think that she stared like you she used to just stand there and stare and roll her eyes right up to heaven and make like i just wasn't there
and she used to fall down a lot that girl was always falling again and again and i used to sometimes try to catch her but never even caught her name
and sometimes we would spend the night just rolling about on the floor and i remember even though it felt soft at the time i always used to wake up sore...
you know i even think that she smiled like you she used to just stand there and smile and her eyes would go all sort of far away and stay like that for quite a while
and i remember she used to fall down a lot that girl was always falling again and again and i used to sometimes try to catch her but never even caught her name
yes i sometimes even tried to catch her but never even caught her name
Sometimes there's nothing to feel Sometimes there's nothing to hold Sometimes there's no time to run away Sometimes you just feel so old
The times it hurts when you cry The times it hurts just to breathe And then it seems like there's no one left And all you want is to sleep
Fight fight fight Just push it away Fight fight fight Just push it until it breaks Fight fight fight Don't cry at the pain Fight fight fight Or watch yourself burn again Fight fight fight Don't howl like a dog Fight fight fight Just fill up the sky Fight fight fight Fight 'til you drop Fight fight fight And never never never never never never stop
Fight fight fight
So when the hurting starts And when the nightmares begin Remember You can fill up the sky You don't have to give in You don't have to give in
You're so gorgeous I'll do anything I'll kiss you from your feet To where your head begins You're so perfect You're so right as rain You make me make me make me Make me hungry again
Everything you do is irresistible Everything you do is simply kissable Why can't I be you?
I'll run around in circles 'Til I run out of breath I'll eat you all up Or I'll just hug you to death You're so wonderful Too good to be true You make me make me make me Make me hungry for you
Everything you do is simply delicate Everything you do is quite angelicate Why can't I be you?
You turn my head when you turn around You turn the whole world upside down I'm smitten I'm bitten I'm hooked I'm cooked I'm stuck like glue You make me make me make me Make me hungry for you
Everything you do is simply dreamy Everything you do is quite delicious So why can't I be you?
