"(Come On) Let's Go!"

"(Come On) Let's Go!"


C'mon let's go
I'll find you waiting there
Beyond their violence dared
A light around your soul

You could be my friend
Lovely and different
Crushing up the stars above us
A guarantee to spoil our rot

Tears were once my only way back home
Someone speaks and instantly I'm cold

C'mon let's go
C'mon let's go
Beyond the great unknown
Beyond their punched-up skulls
To die upon this road

C'mon let's go
C'mon let's go

Anesthetized I'm hollow
Playing to the dark back row

C'mon let's go
Go
C'mon let's go

Assimilate, it's all been staged
I've made mistakes, they penetrate
They're gonna take, it's all the same
They cannot wait, their love spells hate

I wanna love
I wanna love
I'm pushing back
I'm serpentine
I'm pushing back

Lord save me
With need
Lord walk me home

C'mon let's go
C'mon, c'mon let's go

Tears were once my only way back home
Someone weeps and instantly I'm thrown

C'mon let's go
C'mon let's go
Go
C'mon let's go

"1979"

"1979"


Shakedown 1979, cool kids never have the time
On a live wire right up off the street
You and I should meet
Junebug skipping like a stone
With the headlights pointed at the dawn
We were sure we'd never see an end to it all
And I don't even care to shake these zipper blues
And we don't know
Just where our bones will rest
To dust I guess
Forgotten and absorbed into the earth below
Double cross the vacant and the bored
They're not sure just what we have in store
Morphine city slipping dues down to see
That we don't even care as restless as we are
We feel the pull in the land of a thousand guilts
And poured cement, lamented and assured
To the lights and towns below
Faster than the speed of sound
Faster than we thought we'd go, beneath the sound of hope
Justine never knew the rules,
Hung down with the freaks and the ghouls
No apologies ever need be made, I know you better than you fake it
To see that we don't even care to shake these zipper blues
And we don't know just where our bones will rest
To dust I guess
Forgotten and absorbed into the earth below
The street heats the urgency of now
As you see there's no one around

"7 Shades Of Black"

"7 Shades Of Black"


I'm on the street yeah
I want you
I'm looking for myself
I'm gonna make it
I'll take it
Like everybody else
Belle of the fawning
I'm yawning
Sister can't you spell
Above suspicion
Hey listen !
I'm digging my own hell
'Cause I want you bad, ah
'Cause I want you bad

And without peer
And without fear
I'm without anyone at all
I'm torn apart, decrying
How unjust you are
For busting
My black heart

'Cause you don't want me no more
But just you worry
'Cause when they scratch-scratch my door
You'll hurry
Ah 1, 2, 3

This gun is loaded, devoted
You postulate the rest
Riding the seesaw
There's no law
That I have ever met
I'm just a flat punk
On dead junk
Riding a vanguard
Cut from the vaunted
I'm haunted, till death do us part
'Cause I want you bad, ah
'Cause I want you bad

Fall in hate with me with one trick
You will want it all

The yeah-yeah tears
The now and here
The without anyone at all
I'm torn without
I'm crying out for doom

'Cause you don't want me no more
But babe don't worry
'Cause when you scratch-scratch my door
I'll show you, either or?

We are the lurking
The panzers
The black as coal as night
Stealing the stealthy
And stellar
Until we get it right
Notice the yearlings
The dead things
The pretty as you please
I am the regent, the marquis
Sowing my bad seeds
'Cause I want you bad, ah
'Cause I want you bad

Fall in hate with me with one trick
You will want it all
As St. Patrick pipes on!

"A Song For A Son"

"A Song For A Son"


This is a song for a son
This is a song for a sailor
The best I ever had
This is a song for a kid
This is a song for a tailor
Who stitched up my old hearts
Who stitched up my old hearts

And I
I am one of many, many more to come
Many more to come
I am one of many, many more to come
Many more to come

This is a song for a dove
This is a song for a blown out bird
The kind that don't return to the nest
This is a song for a star
This is a song for a space invader
Who flew into the sun
Never to return
Never to return

I am one of many, many more to come
Many more to come
I am one of many more, many more to come
Many more to come

This is a song for a son
This is a song for a sailor
The son I never had
He sailed without a map
This is a song for that kid
This is a song for that tailor
Who stitched up my old hearts
Before I broke it all
All apart

I am one of many, many more to come
Many more to come
I am one of many more, many more to come
Many more to come

You daughters of the revolution
Carry back your sons
Carry them back home

You daughters of the revolution
Carry back your sons home

"A Stitch In Time"

"A Stitch In Time"


It's just a stitch in time
It's perfect, I don't mind
Sailing on your endless sea
You're perfect, I don't mind
I've got your stitch in mine
Everywhere I wanna be

Don't say you want too much
They'll say you've had enough
Don't let them lay their trips on you

There's somewhere I just gotta be...
You're everywhere at once, and you can't break free...
You're everywhere at once, and you can't catch me, watch out
There's somewhere I just gotta be

It's just a stitch in time
We fit together fine
A puzzle looking for its piece
You're perfect, I don't mind
Your travel makes you mine
Everywhere I look I see

Don't say you want too much
They'll say you've had enough
Don't let them lay their trips on you

There's somewhere I just gotta be...
You're everywhere at once, and you can't break free...
You're everywhere at once, and you can't catch me, watch out
There's somewhere I just gotta be...

"Age Of Innocence"

"Age Of Innocence"


We dismiss the back roads
To ride these streets unafraid
Resigned to scraping paint
From our bones unashamed
No more the eye upon you
No more the simple man
Desolation yes hesitation no
Desolation yes hesitation no
As you might have guessed all is never shown
Desolation yes hesitation no
And in my prayers I dream alone
A silent speech to deaf ear
If you want love you must be love
But if you bleed love you will die loved
No more the lie upon you
Cast into stone and autumn shade
Desolation yes hesitation no
Desolation yes hesitation no
As you might have sensed we won't make it home
Desolation yes hesitation no
Before the rites of spring - Come to mean all things
A little taste of what may come - A mere glimpse of what has gone
Cause for the moment we are free - We seek to bind our release
Too young to die too rich to care too fucked to swear that I was there
Desolation yes hesitation no
Desolation yes hesitation no
As you might have guessed we won't make it home
Desolation yes hesitation no

"Anaise"

"Anaise"


Anaise! Anaise!
Need a captive's code
In a word, a word
I can't let go

I need you so, you haunt me
Anaise

In the fines a sign of lonely ones
And you're here to mash
What's done is done
It's simply known despite of all
Anaise

Ooh, what must count as fools for lovers?
Ooh, send this on the way

Lovers let me hear from you
As you all go under
Anaise
Love you, Anaise

Anaise! Anaise!
What's thread is thrown
All your times lack hearts and lace still on
And [?] and now don't you
Anaise

Ooh, what should count as tools for lovers?
Ooh, send this by the way

Lovers let me hear from you
As you go asunder
Ooh, send this by the way

If I could erase her, suppose I did
Lost to brace against her wind
Imagine will twilight [?]
Oh, just stand with me in place

Ooh, what becomes of us as lovers?
Ooh, send this by the wind

Lovers let us hear from you
As you all go under
Anaise
Love you, Anaise (ooh)
Love you, Anaise (ooh)
Love you, Anaise (ooh)
Love you, Anaise (ooh)
Love you, Anaise

"Annie-Dog"

"Annie-Dog"


Amphetamine annie-dog
Has her leash and a face
Her velvet spleen her shackle spine
Her dimond curse
It comes with mine

A vessel she
For violent I
Confession arms a wake
Mine, mine you were always mine
Possessed by my taste

And below the angel dog
Combs her hair and sings her psalms
The bombs go off
She doesn't notice
It all goes wrong
She sets things tragic
She is venus
She is mars
She's electric
And the struggle of

Upon my face we leave no trace
But in her stomach mercury aged

She holds the blood
She carves the knives
She digs the wives in our babies

Amphetamine annie-dog
Pulls her trash
And her stories
From place to place
And bed to bed
Gives of herself and the magnet head

Another floor another ceiling
Counting stairs with double meanings

Is it wrong to be swallowed whole
To disappear in her
To give her the priceless peace
Of giving up control

We tumble out into the streets
And annie-dog she drags her leash
Pretty face
Ugly mouth
Bitter bred and so released

And by the no
And by the yes
Annie goes if you couldn't guess

A simple man
A sycophant
Her elephant with the laughing call
She wants clean sheets
And fresh flowers
And dental shots
And the hong kong glue

Amphetamine annie-dog
Has her leash and a face

"Anti-Hero"

"Anti-Hero"


Never been kissed by a girl like you
All I wanna, I wanna do
Love me baby, love me true, ooh
Everything I want, I had to have
And with madness, it's love that's sad
Trust little baby, oh can't you see?
Ooh, it's me

Ode to the alien weekend
Wednesday's ring starts to turn slow
You said show them one weakness
Then fill that happy heart

With a girl like you
All I wanna, I wanna do
Love me baby, oh can't you please?
Ooh, with a girl like you
Thrown with a girl like you
Ooh, with a girl like you

Times that preach how it's been
As the straw lives on without
You're so alone, they'll let you in
Ooh, if they let you in

Ode to the alien weekend
Stoned where it starts to burn slow
You said show them one weakness
Then give my hand a hold

With a girl like you
All I wanna, I wanna do
To love me baby, oh can't you please?
Ooh, with a girl like you
Thrown with a girl like you
Ooh, with a girl like you
Thrown with a girl like you

You can say, I will listen
You can swear, don't mind
You can blot out tradition
Till I'm bored
With a girl like you
With a girl like you, ooh
With a girl like you, ooh, ooh

I'm so alive with a girl like you
I'm so alive with a girl like you
Trust little baby, can't you please?
Thrown a girl like you
