LYRICS
from the album:
SATAN KIDNEY PIE
DARK FORCES
Longer are the hours
Of darkness than of light
Feeble is the fortress
Inside of which you hide
Forces are approaching
From which you can't escape
Pure is the evil
That you see taking shape.
Sleep cannot protect you
And God not comfort you
Nearer is the hour
When darkness calls for you
Forces are approaching
From which you can't escape
Pure is the evil
That you see taking shape.
TITS
Was it the money
Was it the booze
Was it all the pairs of fancy shoes
Was it his own show
Was it the Ritz
Was it too much sucking on
Teenage tits
Was it the ladies
Was it the boys
Was it all the executive toys
Was it the surgery
Was it the praise
Was it too many Bangkok holidays
Was it the limo
Was it the dope
Was it too much perfumed soap
Was it the candy
Was it the head
Lying flat out on his feather bed
THE LOOZIN' LINE
It doesn't matter
Just how hard you try
It doesn't matter
You'll come down and find
Uuuh ohhh - the loozin' line
It doesn't matter
Just how fast you run
You gotta stop
Once that bell has rung
And drink from the bitter cup
Where rivers all run dry
Uuuhh ohhh - the loozin' line
Uuuhh ohhh - the loozin' line
It doesn't matter
Just how hard you try
So many questions
But only one reply
Welcome to the place
Where grown men cry¨
Uuuhh ohhh - the loozin' line
Uuuhh ohhh - the loozin' line
COME HOME TO ME
I'll be your friend
Help out with things
I'll fix your car
How 'bout today
Just being near you
Helps ease the pain
I've stood outside your house
All night in pouring rain
Come home to me
I'd like to help
Help you forget
I know about your friend
And all the things he said
You need a change
I understand
I can help to pull you
From this sinking sand
Come home to me
If you're unhappy
I'll make you glad
I'll give you all the things
You never had
You'll grow to like me
It won't be long
Before I am the one
You wanted all along
Come home to me
You can trust me
Come home to me
Love guaranteed
Come home to me |

ONE WAY TICKET
There are stops along the way
But no places I wanna stay
I've paid the full fare
More than enough to get me there
I bought a one-way ticket
I see the burning sky
I know I'm on the right track
And I know there's no turning back
No refund, no return
And all eternity to burn
I'm headed for the sunset
I see the burning sky
I bought a one-way ticket
Kiss this bad ass goodbye
The road is wide and straight
And that bus ain't never late
Take a seat there's time to kill
This is the place where
Time stands still
I bought a one-way ticket
I see the burning sky
I'm headed for the sunset
Kiss this bad ass goodbye
NOBODY'S WIFE
I might not be very tall
I might not be good at football
But at least I'm nobodys wife
No
I might be a weedy little shit
I might not be super fit
I might not have a pot
In which to piss
But at least I'm nobodys wife
I might be a figure of fun
I might not be well hung
I might be on the bottom rung
But at least I'm nobodys wife
OUT OF TIME
I know its true
You know its true
The love we once had
Well now its through
We had some good times
We had some rough
I know its sad
You know its sad
That something so good
Could turn so bad
Maybe it was you're fault
Maybe it was mine
But there's no point blaming
We're out of time
I've had my say
You've had you're say
I've played my last card
I'll be on my way
I won't be calling
You won't reply
And if you ever see me someplace
Just pass on by
OH GENERAL
Oh General
Speak to me
Tell me of conflict
Across the sea
Of casualty figures
And civilians lost
I'll write the story
And Bob here'll take the shots
Oh General
Speak to me
War may be messy
But it looks great on TV
Ratings are soaring
And you are the star
Your public are waiting
So lets kick arse¨ |
