So Young
|
Because we're young because we're gone
We'll take the tide's electric mind oh yeah? oh yeah
We're so young and so gone let's chase the dragon oh
Because we're young because we're gone
We'll scare the skies with tigers eyes oh yeah? oh yeah
We're so young and so gone let's chase the dragon oh
Let's chase the dragon
From our home high in the city where the skyline
Stained the snow I fell for a servant who kept me on the boil
We're so young and so gone, let's chase the dragon from our home! |

Animal Nitrate
|
Like his dad you know that he's had
Animal nitrate in mind
Oh in your council home he jumped on your bones
Now you're taking it time after time
Oh it turns you on on now he has gone
Oh what turns you on now your animal's gone?
Well he said he'd show you his bed
And the delights of the chemical smile
So in your broken home he broke all your bones
Now you're taking it time after time
Oh it turns you on on, now he has gone
Oh what turns you on now your animal's gone?
What does it take to turn you on, on,
Now he has gone?
Now you're over 21?
Now your animal's gone?
Animal, he was animal, an animal. |

She's Not Dead
|
She'll come to her end locked in a car somewhere with exhaust in her hair
What's she called? I dunno she's fucking with a slip of a man
While the engine ran
And he said "She's not dead she's gone away gone away" he said
He said "She's not dead just go away go away" he said
In the car he couldn't afford they found his made up name on her ankle chain
So don't call don't call her at home she's fucking with a slip of a man
While the engine ran
And he said "She's not dead, she's gone away gone away" he said
He said "She's not dead, she's gone away gone away" he said "Just gone away
Gone away" he said
She's gone away to someone else's bed. |

Moving
|
Shame on me well I had the beast you see
And if he can take it I can take him home with me
Shame on her she's a lovely little number
And when we go lassoing you get lassoed all of you
If you can take it I can take it
And we're moving so moving so we are a boy we are a girl
So moving so moving
Shame on the girl she's got a big black dog in her
And while tough kids sing about tough kids she just skins the world
We'll never never play the harp, and we'll stick like sick on the stars
And if you can take it I can take these stones from my heart
If you can take it, I can take it
And we're moving, so moving, so we are a boy we are a girl
So moving, so moving
If you can take it, I can take it, all of me
If you can take it, I can take it all
If you can take it, I can take it, all of me
If you can take it, I can take it all! |

Pantomime Horse
|
I was born as a pantomime horse
Ugly as the sun when he falls to the floor
I was cut from the wreckage one day
This is what I get for being that way
Well did you ever did you ever go round with them?
Well did you ever did you ever go round the bend?
I was conned by a circus hand
Tragic as the son of superman
"I would die for the stars" she said
This is what I get for my beautiful head
Well did you ever, did you ever go round with them?
Well did you ever, did you ever go round the bend?
...ever tried it that way, have you ever tried it that way? |
6.
The Drowners
|
Won't someone give me a gun?
Oh well it's for my brother
Well he writes the line wrote down my spine
It says "Oh do you believe in love there?"
So slow down slow down you're taking me over
And so we drown Sir we drown stop taking me over
Won't someone give me some fun?
(And the skin flies all around us)
We kiss in his room to a popular tune
Oh real drowners
Slow down slow down you're taking me over
And so we drown, Sir we drown,
Stop taking me over! |
7.
Sleeping Pills
|
Angel don't take those sleeping pills you don't need them
Though it's just time they kill
Angel give me your sleeping pills you don't need them
Give me the time they kill
You're a water sign I'm an air sign
Gone gone to Valium can you get me some?
You're a water sign and I'm an air sign
Too Siamese to catch the leaves from those trees
Angel don't take those sleeping pills you don't need them
Though it's just time they kill,
You're a water sign, I'm an air sign
Pumped up with Valium, could you get me some?
You're a water sign, I'm an air sign
With sweet F.A. to do today, with sweet F.A. to do today
Angel, don't take those sleeping pills. |

Breakdown
|
Back where the dogs bark where still life bleeds the concrete white
Try not to go too far inside your mind.
Back where the cars decide where the lame star limps an endless mile
Have I gone too far inside my mind?
Oh if you were the one would I even notice now my mind has gone?
Oh if you were the one would I even notice?
Back where the car was parked where the canine in the A line stole your time
You can only go so far for womankind,
Oh, if you were the one, would I even notice now that he has gone?
Oh, if you were the one, would I even notice?
Does your love only come, does your love only come,
Does he only come in a Volvo? |

Metal Mickey
|
Well she's show showing it off then
The glitter in her lovely eyes
Show show showing it off then
And all the people shake their money in time
She sells heart she sells meat
Oh dad she's driving me mad come see
We shake shake shake to the trumpet
And through the slippery city we ride
Skyline swine on the circuit
Where all the people shake their money in time
She sells heart she sells meat
Oh dad she's driving me mad, come see |

Animal Lover
|
I see you're moving see you're moving moving in with her
You'll pierce your right ear pierce your heart here
The skinny boy is one of the girls
'Cause around my neck and around her neck hangs everything you are
I know you've been inside but what were you in for?
Animal lover animal lover animal lover?
I see you're moving see you're moving like wildlife from the waist
But when your name's scratched in on a shiny ring
Your waist is my resting place
And around my neck and around her neck hangs everything you are
I know you've been inside but what were you in for?
Animal lover, animal lover, animal lover? |

The Next Life
|
See you in your next life when we'll fly away for good
Stars in our own car we can drive away from here
Far away so far away down to Worthing and work there
Far away we'll go far away and flog ice creams
'til the company's on its knees
See you in your next life when we'll fly away for good. |
