1.A Song From Under The Floorboards

I am angry i am ill and i'm as ugly as sin
My irritability keeps me alive and kicking
I know the meaning of life, it doesn't help me a bit
I know beauty and i know a good thing when i see it

This is a song from under the floorboards
This is a song from where the wall is cracked
My force of habit, i am an insect
I have to confess i'm proud as hell of that fact

I know the highest and the best
I accord them all due respect
But the brightest jewel inside of me
Glows with pleasure at my own stupidity

This is a song ....

I used to make phantoms i could later chase
Images of all that could be desired
Then i got tired of counting all of these blessings
And then i just got tired

This is a song ...


2.Because Your Frightened

You love me because you're frightened
And i'm falling in love with you
Because i'm getting frightened
Of the things you somehow make me do
You love me because you're frightened
I can easily believe my eyes
Your fear is my finest hour
My fear is your disguise

Look what fear's done to my body

A frightening world
Is an interesting world to be in
In the forbidden city
Or on the roof of the world
Or at the receiving end
Of the nine o'clock news
However you put your mind to it
You can find fear where you choose

Look what fear's done to my body

You want to hurt
You want to crave
You want to praise and curse and blame
You want to believe just what you like
Then you want to hurt and crave again

They took you to the top of the mountain
They showed you the valley
You bought it
You couldn't wait, could you!

Look what fear's done to my body

You want to hurt ...


3.Definitive Gaze

I've got this bird's eye view
And it's in my brain
Clarity has reared
Its ugly head again
So this is real life
You're telling me
And everything
Is where it ought to be

I like your nerve
I like watching you
But i don't watch what i'm doing
Got better things to do
So this is real life
You're telling me
Now i'm lost in shock
Your face fits perfectly


4.Give Me Everything

You're gonna give me immunity
You're gonna receive punishment
I'm gonna lose myself in you
Because you're not quite of this world

There will be rooms
Where we shouldn't meet
Times i want to screw you up
And leave you in the street
You know everybody
You don't know a thing
You watch me in you
But i know what you're really seeing

With the eyes of the world upon you
You leave nothing to my imagination
And i leave nothing to be desired
Cos you're gonna feel like i feel

Now you give me everything
Now you give me everything
Now you give me everything
Now give me everything

And i'll open up like a sliding door
Oh so oblique and easy
Oh you're so bleak and easy
Cos you're gonna feel like i feel

Now you give me everything
Now you give me everything
Now you give me everything
Now give me everything

I beg of you
I beg of you
I beg of you


5.Model Worker

I'm sick of working on the land
I wanna work with machines and look handsome

I have been indulging
In ostentatious display
Doing little more than eat
Three square meals a day

And i've been shirking my duty
So i've been sending gifts to curry favour

But because i love you
And because you love me
A model worker
I'ii willingly be

I need a holiday, i've not been well
Take me to the brocade river hotel

And i just want to know
While the revolution lasts
Will it enable me
To swallow broken glass!

I'm not too worried by hegemony
I know the cadre will look after me

And i just want to know while the revolution lasts
Will it enable me to swallow broken glass!

I have been indulging in ostentatious display
Doing little more than eat three square meals a day

But because i love you ..


6.Parade

They will show me what i want to see
We will watch without grief
We stay one step ahead of relief
You tell me we've been praying
For a bright and clever hell
I think we've been forced to our knees but i can't tell

Sometimes i forget that we're supposed to be in love
Sometimes i forget my position

It's so hot in here
What are they trying to hatch ?
We must not be frail, we must watch
Now that i'm out of touch with anger
Now i have nothing to live up to
And i don't know when to stop joking
When i stop i hope i am with you

Sometimes ...

What on earth is the size of my life ?


7.Permafrost

Thunder shook loose hail
On the outhouse again
Today i bumped into you again
I have no idea what you want
But there was something i meant to say

As the day stops dead
At the place where we're lost
I will drug you and f*** you
On the permafrost

There's not much that i miss
I'm far too forgetful for that
Sugar's sweet some of the time
It's hard to keep some things in mind

As the day stops dead ...


8.Thank You(Falettinme Be Mice Elf Agin)

Looking at the devil
Grinning at his gun
Fingers start shaking
I begin to run

Thank you for letting me be myself again

Bullets start chasing
I begin to stop
We begin to wrestle and
I was on the top

I want to thank you ...

Thank you for the party
I could never stay
Many things is on my mind
Words in the way

Thank you ..


9.The Light Pours Out Of Me

Time flies
Time crawls
Like on insect
Up and down the walls

The light pours out of me
The light pours out of me

The conspiracy
Of silence ought
To revolutionise
My thought

The light pours out of me ...

The cold light of day
Pours out of me
Leaving me black
And so healthy

The light pours out of me ...

It jerks out of me
Like blood
In this still life
Heart beats up love

The light pours out of me ...


10.Twenty Years Ago

You turn pandemonium
Into pantomime for one
Twenty years ago i used your soap
So what!
You've got a name for it
Yesterday goes on and on
Inbetween the devil and the deep blue sea

You thrash about in your room
No space for thought
Look no strings, look no strings
No visible means of support

Twenty years ago i used your soap
How did you ever come to move a muscle in this space!
The dollar's adrift
Twenty years ago i used your soap
