CRACKS IN THE PAVEMENT


I shed my skin when the party was about to begin
I'm light years away but I'm walking back tonight of all nights
When I should be feeling just right
Don't wanna be in public my head is full of chopstick I don't like it
Something on my mind breaking open doors I've sealed up before
Something on my mind makes me run when I thought I'd run too far

Somebody's shaking my tree maybe that somebody is me
I'm standing in the light but I'm making a break for the shadows on the cinema wall
They should be mine but I'm not that tall
Now I'm saying this in private if I had a car I'd drive it insane

Something on my mind breaking open doors I've sealed up before
Something on my mind makes me run when I thought I've run too far
Something on my mind breaking open doors I've sealed up before
Something on my mind makes me run when I thought I've run too far
I'm looking for cracks in the pavement

Something on my mind breaking open doors I've sealed up before
Something on my mind makes me run when I thought I've run too far
Something on my mind breaking open doors I've sealed up before
Something on my mind makes me run when I thought I've run too far

CRYSTAL SHIP


Before you slip into unconsciousness I'd like to have another kiss
Another flashing chance at bliss another kiss another kiss
The days are bright and filled with pain enclose me in your gentle rain
The time you ran was still then saying we'll meet again we'll meet again
Oh tell me where your freedom lies the streets are fields that never dies
Deliver me from reasons why you'd rather cry I'd rather fly
The crystal ship is being filled a thousand girls a thousand thrills
A million ways to spend you time when we get back I'll drop a line

DIRTY GREAT MONSTER


There's a dirty great monster
In this house
We pretend it's not there
And there's no escape
From It's grip
But nobody seems to care
Do you ever wonder
About the days
When we were straight
But daddy got the hunger
So much to hide
We learn to lie

So watch yourself
In the hall
Where you're not supposed to know
Cuz we're all afraid of each other
We're the victim's in this show

Well Do you ever wonder
About the days
When we were straight
when daddy got the hunger
too much to hide
We learn to lie
Silently out numbered
We made mistakes
When we were straight
Now we're all going under

Oh oh

So with a sigh we say good bye

DO YOU BELIEVE IN SHAME


Do you believe in love?
Do you believe in shame?
And if love can conquer all
Then why do we only feel the pain?

I heard you speak my name
Heard you singing The Stones
Maybe heard you laughing in a line of static
On my telephone

So why your eyelids are closed,
Inside a case of rust
And did you have to change
All your poets fire into frozen dust

I've tried to justify it to learn from your mistake
But where's the stupid lie that has to make it's point
With such a pointless waste

Come out

Do you believe in shame?
Do you believe in love?
And if they taste the same
Would you love again or abandon both?

I don't think I ever can
Belive my friend has gone
Keep saying it's alright I'm going to bring you back
But I know I'm wrong

There's nothing I can say
There's nothing left to do
It's just that lately I feel so damn lonely
When I think of you

And it may seem selfish now
But I'll hold on to the memory
Until all this fear is washed away
Do you believe in love?
Do you believe in life?
'Cos I believe a little part of you inside of me
Will never die...

DOWNTOWN


Deliver us from evil
We go with the flow
But here's a little secret
I think you ought to know
Providers and abusers
They know where to go
With Sunday refugees from Sunday TV shows

Downtown all of the way down
Downtown all of the way downtown

Let's sink imagination
Past your wildest wild
(all of the way downtown)
Go way below below below
Is it such a crime?
The uptown can't teach you how to live
They don't have the time
Coz where i'm gonna take you
Is a state of mine

Downtown all of the way down
Downtown all of the way downtown
Downtown all of the way down
Downtown all of the way downtown

You better learn to use your heart
You got to loose your money
You better use it all up
Coz you can't take it with you
When you're going down...

You'll never come home babe
You'll never come home baby
And you'll never be alone
All of the way downtown
All of the way...
Down
Down
Down
Downtown...

DRIVE BY


It was the hottest day in July and all along Santa Monica boulevard
Cars were stood still and a gleaming metal tube
Would stretch all the way from Highland back to La Brea
And she met under the Los Angeles sunshine
A young man was sitting at the wheel on his way to make a pickup
Turned off the air-con, rolled down the window and began to sweat
Out over the hollywood hills he saw the clouds building like great dark towers of rain
Ready to come tumbling down any day now not a day too soon any day now
And as the music drifted in from other cars his eyes started to slip
This is the story of his dream (sing blue silver)
Sing, sing blue silver this is the story of his dream
This is the story of his dream

DROWNING MAN


He's sinking faster than a drowning man
He grab a hold of anyone he can gun in is pocket and a heart of ham Uncle Sam
He's dying faster than a rabid dog infect us all now he's losing blood
Nose for trouble and a soul of rock Smokey's man
Don't drag me down, I don't wanna drown you're going down yeah

There's not much flesh just skull and bone cheeks sunk deep
Eyes poppin wide don't put out a hand to help him
This drowning man will bite it right off, right off, right off, right off, right off
Don't drag me down I don't wanna drown you're going down going down

He's selling faster than a magazine infect us all with his TV screen
He's selling faster than a magazine infect us all with his TV screen
He's selling faster than a magazine infect us all with his TV screen
He's selling faster than a magazine infect us all with his TV screen
You're going down
Going down going

EVERY MORNING


Take me every morning
Take me every night
Take me when you're feeling low
Take me when you want to stay
Up all night

Before you slip into the white
There's something i want you to know
In all your stretch of consciousness
You've still got a long way to go
Some make you spin,
Some make you sweat,
It's only here for you to choose
Some like it hot,
But I like it wet, so tell me...
What have we got to lose now?

Take me every morning
Take me every night
Take me when you're feeling low
Take me when you want to stay
Up all night

(a hit, a hit)
A hit to fit reality
It's just a state of mind
And you, and it, it's more than just
And that's what you've got to find
We'll make you spin,
We'll make you sweat
All you have to do is choose me
And if you would try
And alternative high
Then tell me, what have we got to lose now?

Take me every morning
Take me every night
Take me when you're feeling low
Take me when you want to stay
Up all night

Take me every morning
Take me every night
Take me when you're feeling low
Take me when you want to stay
Up all night

ELECTRIC BARBARELLA


I knew when I first saw you on the showroom floor you were made for me
I took you home and dressed you up in polyester princess of my dreams
Emotionless and cold as ice all of the things I like
The way you look the way you move the sound you're making
In ultra-chrome, latex and steel

I plug you in dim the lights electric Barbarella
You're perfect skin plastic kiss electric Barbarella
Try to resist then we touch hallucinate and tranquillize

She's so fine, she's all mine
Our private life is subject to investigation no time to waste
People say they heard about a deviation but you never looked so good
Wear the fake perfect balls for me and put on your mystery
The way I feel you know I'd never keep you waiting
In ultra-chrome, latex and steel

I plug you in dim the lights electric Barbarella
You're perfect skin plastic kiss electric Barbarella
Try to resist then we touch hallucinate and tranquilize

I plug you in dim the lights electric Barbarella
Your perfect skin plastic kiss electric Barbarella
Try to resist then we touch hallucinate and tranquilize
Princess of my dreams, princess of my dreams
Majordomo plastic como Barbarella she's so fine
Progenectic que electric Barbarella she's all mine
My pretty, pretty, pretty, pretty Barbarella

FALLEN ANGEL


From this cloud where I hang dangle in the blue
I spy you all tiny creatures on the ground below
For my being reckless got me strung up in the sky
But love is flawed now see the lowlies cry
Cut my cord now better then better off to die

Here am I your falling angel dangle in the blue
I'm your angel and I wish that I could be like you

It's my time all I have for my crime is such
Knowing that the thing I love is that which I can't touch
So I watch your fragile beauty changing in the sun
Love is flawed now see the lowlies cry
Cut my cord now better then better off to die

Well here am I your falling angel dangle in the blue
I'm your angel how I wish that I could be with you
Falling angel dangle in the blue
I'm your angel and I wish that I could be like you

I believe in you I don't believe it all but I believe in you
I don't believe it all but I belive in you
I don't believe it all but I believe in you
I don't believe it all
