Somebody You Know

Standing with the rich, waiting to get in
One step, two step waiting to get in
Is this just the same, as any other day?
Do my eyes look any other way?
Am I making sense? Flicker flicker flash
Start stop flicker, TV set
A buzzing in my ear, far too loud to hear
Start stop buzzing, high pitched squeal
Chorus: (Somebody, you know, I dunno, I dunno, I dunno)x2
Going to the shop, waiting to get off
Waiting, waiting, waiting to get off
Baby won’t you breath, a sigh of relief
Shut your eyes and breath with me.
Shadows in the street, chasing me
Stop my heart does chase a beat
Lay me down to bed, you are in my head
A soundtrack to a memory
Repeat chorus
Standing with the rich, waiting to get in
One step, two step waiting to get in
Is this just the same, as any other day?
Do my eyes look any other way?
Somebody you know, Your my touch and go
Repeat chorus

Dawn

Take your pills and go to sleep
Don’t wake up till the morning’s gone
The water got a little deep
The road became a little long
I’ll take your painted dreams
I’ll take your memories
I’ll take the moving parts of your, soul, soul, soul, soul
Chorus:
What’s this fiction of control?
I swear the only song you wrote
Ooh, at least you got your soul, forgetting all your health
But you’ve got to let this go
The morning dawned a little grey
And your worlds they came apart
My love I never heard you say
Those little words of the heart
I’ll take your clutching hands
I’ll take your burning hair
I’ll take your breaking heart and I’ll, go, go, go, go
Repeat chorus
Half chorus: (What’s this fiction of control?) x2
(Just like you’ve always said) x2
(Just like you’ve always said now) x2
(Just like you’ve always said) x2
Just like you’ve always said now, no, no, no, no
Repeat chorus.

End Of World Parade
04:18
|

Late night, the natives are swarming
Those heels, will bruise in the morning
Taxi queue, at late night hero’s missing shoes
Rain dance, summon the goddess
Move fast, she favours the hardest
Liquor please, a necklace made of human teeth.
Last chance, to get to the party
Head down, climb over the bodies
Ticker tape, end of world parade
Crash automatic don’t let go
Whatever’s left can be the door
Rain dance, summon the goddess
Move fast, she favours the hardest
Taxi queue, at late night hero’s missing shoes
Last chance, to get to the party
Head down, crawl over the bodies
Ticker tape, end of world parade
Crash automatic don’t let go
Whatever’s left can be the door
There’s one more poison left to take
To mark the end of world parade
(Around and around we go) x 7
Around and around
Crash automatic don’t let go
Whatever’s left can be the door
There’s one more poison left to take
To mark the end of world parade

The Unspeakable
04:30
|

You, Your sad eyes, your dolls house placed around you
Chained, chained to the floor, where your born to grow old
Time, aint healing the deamons in your mind
Help, I’m trying to find, the pretty face behind, the clouds, So….
(Chorus 1)
Breath, breath and believe
Believe in me
I don’t want to hurt you
Set, set yourself free
The life you want
Only comes half way to you
Your, dolls house closes in, each memory begins to slowly fool you
The lies, spat in your face, the heartbreak it aches, people take things from you
I can’t remember what it is, I miss my man and kids, I cannot go back
The things, things that I’ve seen, the places I’ve been, they’ll never understand, So….
(Chorus 2)
Run, run for the sun
It’s there for everyone
I need this like you do
Hold, onto my hand
The promised land
Is just a shell to break through
Breath, breath and believe
Believe in me
I don’t want to hurt you
Set, set yourself free
The life you want
Only comes half way to you
(Instrumental)
Repeat chorus 2

Keep It Low
04:29
|
|||
Your last chance to come out clean, I swear
Your last chance to tell on me, I swear
I was laughing out an open stream of prayers,
I am living out a life long dream, who cares?
Hope, fell on you
Each day’s, broken shoes
Chorus:
My baby wants me to keep it low now
Oh baby won’t you keep it low now
Oh baby how my heart does sing loud
So baby won’t you keep it low now
Love will come take you anywhere, I swear
My last chance I’ll take you anywhere, I swear
You can bail on me anytime, I swear
Set up shop in another life, I swear
Hope, fell on you
A new day’s, broken shoes

Foam Party
03:29
|

I want you to know, I want you to know
I tell you so
I feel just like you, I feel just like you
You say you do
You stand at my place, you stand at my face
You really do
You stand in my place, you fall from my grace
Just like you do
Your cold money face, is so hard to place
And all the rest
Your cold angry face, is so hard to trace
I say it best
You foam at the mouth, you lie through your teeth
Of what’s beneath
You foam at the mouth, you lie through your teeth
Just out of reach
Bridge:
((It aint so, I don’t know x 3) So sick and dirty that I wanna collect you boy) x 2
Guitar solo
You foam at the mouth, you lie through your teeth
Of what’s beneath
You foam at the mouth, you lie through your teeth
Just out of reach

You
03:05
|

You, you the one who’s always on my mind
For a very long time, I know, you’re the only thing that got me through
It was never me, but you, you’re the one who shut me on outside
And now it’s you, oh you, you’re the one who can’t tell me what to do
Now I’m living alone
Chorus:
What’s that inside your head? X
What’s that you tried to say? X 2
Outro:
I wish that you would come back smiling
I wish you had new hope for me cause you didn’t have anything else
I hoped that you would come back smiling
I wish you had new hope for me cause you didn’t have anything else
You, you’re the only one who’s always on my mind, for a long, long time

Brand New Plan
03:42
|
|||
Baby’s gotta brand new plan
He drinks, he drinks, to keep him awake now
Coming out again
Running out on me again
The things, he takes, to keep him awake now
Running out again
Don’t be so surprised, the love lost in their eyes
My baby still, gets his thrills, pink and yellow pretty pills
Johnny’s gotta back up plan
He drinks, he drinks, to take him away now
Going outta my head
He’s coming round over again
The things, we say, to keep us awake now
Going outta my head
Our love runs out again
No feeling for our friends
Don’t forget to smile, we’re going to be here for a while
Evening news, sing the blues, greasy hair and frumpy shoes
Take me back to bed, hearing voices in my head
Baby says, it’s OK, loving eyes and a sunken face
My baby’s gotta a brand new plan! X 4

Tell Me
03:26
|

Life was better yesterday, we’re all slaves who pay, pay, pay
I hate school and I hate work, I hate law and I hate church
You tried to think but thought too deep, put your intellect to sleep
Now all you do is scream and shout, wash the bullshit out your mouth
Chorus:
Oh, won’t you tell me
Oh, won’t you whisper in my ear
There’s a brand new working class, working from the centre out
Marx and Mau and Trotsky too, are bourgeoisie compared to you
Smoke your weed and talk your shit, cut off all your benefits
But you will never smash the state, the revolution’s come too late
Repeat chorus
So tip your hat when we walk by, spread your legs for the weeping sky
Carve your name into the void, Satan entertains our noise
Repeat chorus
