"Rockets"
(originally by Tomas Ford)



No, I agree, Sir!
My live show could be better
with my production values higher.
I should have lights and rockets!

Oh, Sir!
They’d shoot behind me trailed by glitter
I’d blind crowds with my spectacular!
So perfect!

Don’t reduce me to that
I just need connection
I don’t want your fireworks in my way.

LOOK UP IN THE SKY!
LOOK BEHIND ME!
IT’S A WATERFALL OF SPARKS AND ROCKETS!
FOCUS THE SPOTLIGHT!
CUE THE GLITTER CANNON!
FORGET CONNECTION
AND THROW SOME MONEY! OH!

No, I agree, Sir!
Be my recoupable investor!
I’ll be your slave and willing debtor
for lights and rockets!

Don’t reduce me to that
I just need connection
I don’t want your fireworks in my way.

SO BRING IN THE DANCERS!
THE LUDICROUS SET PIECES!
INTRODUCE MY GUITARIST
MY KEYBOARDS AND DRUMMER!
LOOK UNDER YOUR CHAIRS!
THERE’S FREE GIFTS FOR EVERYONE!
‘CAUSE I DON’T WANT YOUR FILTHY, FILTHY MONEY!

If Sir insists on throwing money,
put the drinks onto his tab!
This party will be epic!
We’ll down slab after slab!
So go talk to the bar staff!
Tell ‘em everything is free!
Oh, they don’t usually do this,
but they’ll do it for me!
Now, look out in the carpark,
he’s bought cars for all of you!
After all his corporate bullshit
it’s the least that he could do
and when you’re all rotten drunk
and driving your new cars home
at least you’ll take more from this than just
rockets going kaboom!
Rockets going kaboom!
Rockets going kaboom!
Rockets going kaboom!
Rockets going kaboom.

"Roulette!"

"Roulette!"



Every time I look into your eyes
It's roulette, it's roulette, it's roulette
Every time I cut into all your wires
Disconnect, disconnect, disconnect

In a game with terrible odds
And with no help from your terrible gods
I'm building my own casino
Gonna take it all away
I guess this ain't my day
I should have walked away
I should have walked away, yeah!

Every time I look into your eyes
It's roulette, it's roulette, it's roulette
Every time I cut into all your wires
Disconnect, disconnect, disconnect

Lady luck in a sequined dress
Where it lands is anyone's guess
All of those words I wish I could take back
All the time spent on red, when I should have bet on black
I'm a slot machine, let me tell you what I mean
I'm a slot machine, let me tell you what I mean
I'm a slot machine, gonna tell you what I mean
I take all your money, and I turn you green
Come on, I wanna lick the screen

Every time I look into your eyes
It's roulette, it's roulette, it's roulette
Every time I cut into all your wires
Disconnect, disconnect, disconnect

It's roulette, it's roulette, it's roulette
It's roulette, it's roulette, it's roulette

"Rubber Rocket"

"Rubber Rocket"



Remember when you walked into my life all dressed up in leather?
Remember when you whispered to me we should always be together?
But girls like you ruin the future
Girls like you ruin my life
Girls like you make guys like me make love to a computer

Every night's another nightmare
And I can't wake up
I go bananas
And every time I see your face
I self destruct

Remember when you told me that you wanna ride the rubber rocket?
Remember when you told me that you want to
Plug my plug into your socket?
But girls like you turn into witches
Girls like you turn into beasts
Girls like you find guys like me and eat our vital organs

Every night you're the monster
Living underneath my bed
I go bananas
And every time I see your face
I'm better off dead

This is what I turn into when I get really hungry
Man become machine and machine becometh monkey
This is what I turn into when I get close to you
When I get close to you

Every night's another nightmare
And I can't wake up
I go bananas
And every time I see your face
I self destruct

"Rubbin' Me The Wrong Way"

"Rubbin' Me The Wrong Way"



Take a picture of this moment with me.
Is it everything you want it to be?
Cause when they go to blow it up,
you always fill my cup
with figurines and dishonesty.

And you're rubbin' me the wrong way.
You're jerkin' me around when we hit the club.
Doin' me the hard way.
Always shootin' me down before I get back up.

Why you acting a fool now darling?
Step into to my hand, we'll see some light.
Cause Heaven rents a space in Harlem.
And baby we can go there tonight.
You just gotta come over and rub me right.
Oh I sing...

Save your drama for a rainy day
and just forget what all your girlfriends say.
Before the evening can explode,
you gotta kiss that toad
and activate his charming princely ways.

So quit rubbin' me the wrong way.
Quit jerkin' me around when we hit the club.
Quit doin' me the hard way.
Quit shootin' me down before I get back up.

Why you looking to slow this night down?
You're sucking all of the venom out of my bite.
Heaven is my place in Me-Town.
And baby we can go there tonight.
Ahh you gotta rub me right!

Oh I sing,
Come on and rub me right.
Come on and rub me right.
Come on and rub me right.

Na na na, na na na.
Na na na, na na na.
Na na na, na na na.
Na na na, na na na.

"Satanic Wheels"

"Satanic Wheels"


No wine for witches
And the finest stitches to write your name
She’s got a lockbox that she for more than show
But the combination was forgotten long ago

Run over me with satanic wheels
Do you know how the leather feels?
Do you know?

No time for martyrs this time around
As I get smarter, I’m gonna burn ya down

Run over me with satanic wheels
Do you know how the leather feels?
Do you know?

Just like a tainted horoscope
Just like a touchy-feely grope
Just like a bloody overcoat
Just like a sinking pleasure boat

I get my advice from gas boy
I get all of my gas from advice boy

Let’s get up, let’s get up and move
Let’s get into the Smorgasbord groove
And like my theory just proved
When mountains are moved, views are improved
And I, think it’s getting better all the time
Do you know?

"Sexy Trash"

"Sexy Trash"



Show me your sexy trash
But don't go making moves
That agitate my rash

I'm an American man
And I know where I stand
I stand with you
And your sexy trash

Columbian war lords
Are rushing to replace
All the products that they've moved
To the United States
With tradaxxian crystals from outerspace
And the filthy residue
Of your sexy trash
Your sexy trash

Geo political ramifications
Of lovers when they lie

Because of vegetarians
Animals no longer die

We can live as one inside the slaughterhouse
Of your sexy trash

I'm an American Man tonight

"She's White"

"She's White"


I was born a prisoner in your dungeon of flesh, oh yeah
(yeah, yeah, yeah)
Solitary confinement underneath your dress, oh yeah
(yeah, yeah, yeah)
But i broke those shackles, I bent those bars I got out the van and drove away in my car.

I got a new girl now, she dont understand me but she's getting hot now

And she's white (white)
She is so white, shes white like the light never like the night
Shes white (white) she is so white
I was born to excite her, she could never be whiter toniiii-iight.

I was born a hunter in your jungle of sin, oh yeah
(yeah, yeah, yeah)
And our love was a sport, but she'd let me win, oh yeah
(yeah, yeah, yeah)
And I shot those arrows, I flung those balls
But she returned my fire and shot me in the heart

I got a new girl now, she dont understand me but she's getting hot now

And she's white (white) she is so white, shes white like the light but never like the night
Shes white (white) she is so white
I was born to excite her, she could never be whiter toniiii-iight
(toniiii-iight)
GO!

[music break]

I was born a dancer in your disco of fire, oh yeah
(yeah, yeah, yeah)
And your love was the rythmn, and it was making me higher, oh yeah
(yeah, yeah, yeah)
But I scratched that record, i stopped that show
I got on the mic, and I let you know

I got a new girl now she's 6 feet tall, I got her number on the wall

And she's white (white) she is so white, shes white like the light but never like the night
Shes white (white) she is so white
I was born to excite her, she could never be whiter toniiii-iight
Toniiii-iight, toniiii-iight

"Shortlove"

"Shortlove"


Shortlove
All I’m looking for is shortlove
Not interested in dreaming of you
After you’re gone

And money
Can I silence you with money
Are you interested in my money?
Where my money goes?

[Non-sensical lyrics]
Yeah

Shortlove
All I’m looking for is shortlove
Not interested in dreaming of you
After you’re gone

"Show Me What Your Lights Mean"

"Show Me What Your Lights Mean"


I was on the sidelines taking one for the team
Suddenly she emerged from the steam
Picking all the pink ice cream
Put out the sound of the siren start to scream
I was blinded by a death ray beam
From the heavy metal sex ray machine

And I don't want to be the one still around
Looking lonely, staring at the ground
Twist her gaze in like a knife and you'll see how it feels
And I need to know are you imagined or real
Or somewhere in between

Oh
Dirty you up some
And then I want to lick you clean
Show me what your lights mean
Show me what your lights mean
I want to dirty you up some
And then I want to lick you clean
Show me what your lights mean
Show me what your lights mean

'Cause your lights don't tell the world my moves should be
But they sure might illuminate my fantasy
Asking everyone I know "What's wrong with his diction?"
How come it tastes so good when it's such a rotten mixture?
It's not a [?] but I'm willing to be flexible

I want to dirty you up some
And then lick you clean
Show me what your lights mean
Show me what your lights mean
I want to dirty you up some
And then I want to lick you clean
Show me what your lights mean
Show me what your lights mean

The lights fix me in place
The lights feel like outer space
The lights fix me in place
The lights seem like outer space
The lights fix

"Simulated Love"

"Simulated Love"



You are the bad girls
Have you done a little work in the movies?
You got a manager,
And he sends a couple copies of you to me.

But you don't come with instructions,
You're wearing too many clothes
I'd like to show you my suction, but I don't know where it goes.
Cuz we are human dust bunnies,
Waiting for the vacuum
To come and pick us up, honey
Whistling along to the hollow tune of

Simulated love
Simulated love
Simulated love
Simulated love

You are the parasites
Always biting the host that feeds you
You've got the sight, sight
But you don't recognize when they're trying to bleed you.

You don't come with instructions,
You're wearing too many clothes
I'd like to show you my suction, but I don't know where it goes
Cuz we are human dust bunnies,
Waiting for the vacuum
To come and pick us up, honey
Whistling along to the hollow tune of

Simulated love
Simulated love
Simulated love
Simulated love

Oh sweet love, what does it mean?
Cuz everything's never quite as it seems
Pretty, pretty pictures in a magazine
Selling me tickets for the fuck machine
No U-turn on the road of life
Today's girlfriend is tomorrow's wife
The meeting of the flesh and the knife
Taking color photographs in black and white
And when your piggies start to squeal
It's impossible to keep an even keel
I'd drive a thousand miles just to cop a feel

Love isn't real, unless it's not real
Love isn't real, unless it's not real
Love isn't real, unless it's not real
Love isn't real, unless it's not real
Love isn't real, unless it's not real

Oh sweet love, what does it mean?
Oh sweet love, what does it mean?
Oh sweet love, what does it mean?
Oh sweet love, what does it mean?
