Burn Baby Burn

Lyrics

You're all I have in this teenage twilight
Your golden hair and pale blue eyes
But through all the days and the sleepless nights
We have never been satisfied

Tumbling like leaves
We are spiralling on the breeze
Almost to the point of no return
Everything will Burn Baby Burn

Look into my tired eyes
See someone you don't recognise
Binds that can't be untied
This is slow suicide
Feelings that I can't disguise
Never will be reconciled
Something inside has died

You walk like you're in a daze
Unresponsive eyes in a distant gaze
Like all the good times have flown away
And the memory leaves a bitter taste

Tumbling like leaves
We are spiralling on the breeze
Destructive love is all we have
Destructive love is all I am

Look into my tired eyes
See someone you don't recognise
Binds that can't be untied
This is slow suicide
Feelings that I can't disguise
Never will be reconciled
Something inside has died

Vicious bitter words
Becoming more and more cruel
But you always take me back
And let me lick your wounds

Tumbling like leaves
We are spiralling on the breeze
Almost to the point of no return
Everything will Burn Baby Burn

Look into my tired eyes
See someone you don't recognise
Binds that can't be untied
This is slow suicide
Feelings that I can't disguise
We're living in a compromise
Something inside has died

 

A Life Less Ordinary

Lyrics

I smoke myself into a haze in the afternoon
Enveloped heart and the air is cool
Put on your dress, white goddess
And settle in as the weather folds
In the slow haze of the afternoon
Swaying hips made like a gun
Blackest sails, the most beautiful star
In the world, in the air, on my tongue
Before my eyes, beyond the stars, beneath the sun

So, take me in your arms again
Lead me in my dreams again
So what is it worth?
I'll sell my soul
What is it worth?
Only you know

You were conceived in my heart, came like a dream
To save me from my mortality
Put on your dress, white goddess
And settle in as the weather folds
Our lives will be entwined even when I die
You'll see me through 'till the end of time
No earthly bride, the most beautiful star
In the world, in the air, on my tongue
Before my eyes, beyond the stars, beneath the sun

So, take me in your arms again
Lead me in my dreams again
So what is it worth?
I'll sell my soul
What is it worth?
Only you know

Take me in your arms again
Lead me in my dreams again
So what is it worth?
I'll sell my soul
What is it worth?
I'll sell my soul
What is it worth?
I'll sell my soul
What is it worth?
I'll sell my soul
What is it worth?

 

Submission

Lyrics

Sink into warm flesh
I want to taste your skin
Want to see you undressed
And see you shake your thing
You're bound and helpless
And burning from within
There for the taking
I want to hear you sing

You turn me on,
You cut me with your tongue
You take it all on, submission
You turn me on,
You cut me with your tongue
You take it all on, submission

There's nothing I won't do
Even if it's wrong
To please you
That's where I'm coming from
You warp my senses
You're coming on so strong
I gotta go down
I gotta get it on

You turn me on,
You cut me with your tongue
You take it all on, submission
You turn me on,
You cut me with your tongue
You take it all on, submission

Sink into warm flesh
You got me in a daze
You give me fever
You hold me in your sway
You're my addiction
For you I'd take the pain
Feel the friction
And take it all the way

You turn me on,
You cut me with your tongue
You take it all on, submission
You turn me on,
You cut me with your tongue
You take it all on, submission

 

Shining Light

Lyrics

Roman candles that burn in the night, yeah, you are a shining light
You lit a torch in the infinite, yeah, you are a shining light
Yeah, you light up my life

You have always been a thorn in their side, but to me you’re a shining light
You arrive and the night is alive, yeah, you are a shining light
Yeah, you light up my life

We made a connection, a full on chemical reaction
Brought by dark divine intervention
Yeah, you are a shining light
A constellation once seen, over royal David’s city
An epiphany you burn so pretty
Yeah, you are a shining light

You are a force you are a constant source,yeah, you are a shining light
Incandescent in the darkest night, yeah, you are a shining light
My mortal blood i would sacrifice, for you are a shining light
Sovereign bride of the infinite, yeah, you are a shining light
Yeah, you light up my life

We made a connection, a full on chemical reaction
Brought by dark divine intervention
Yeah, you are a shining light
A constellation once seen, over royal David’s city
An epiphany you burn so pretty
Yeah, you are a shining light

These are the days you often say
There’s nothing that we cannot do
Beneath a canopy of stars
I’d shed blood for you
The north star in the firmament
You shine the most bright
I’ve seen you draped in a electric veil
Shrouded in celestial light

We made a connection, a full on chemical reaction
Brought by dark divine intervention
Yeah, you are a shining light
A constellation once seen, over royal David’s city
An epiphany you burn so pretty, yeah, you are a shining light
Yeah, you light up my life, yeah, you are a shining light
Yeah,you light up my life

 

Goldfinger

Lyrics

Move closer, set my mind on fire
Taking over, the world seems so alive
Uh uh oh
The world seems so alive

She slips into the night, and she is gone
Gone to settle the score, gone into the town
Rain shining in her eyes
Her brother started school
Again today, a thought to pass the time
To occupy my mind, while I'm waiting for her

Down in the basement, listening to the rain
Thinking things over. I think it over again
Uh uh oh
I think it over again

She slipped into the night, and she was gone
Gone to settle the score, gone into the town
Rain shining in her eyes
Her brother started school
Again today, a thought to pass the time
To occupy my mind, while I'm waiting for her

I'm riding it down, listen to the rain
She'll be here soon, I lie back and drift away
Uh uh oh
I lie back and drift away.

She slipped into the night, and she was gone
Gone to settle the score, gone into the town
Rain shining in her eyes
Her brother started school
Again today, a thought to pass the time
To occupy my mind, while I'm waiting for her

I'm feeling so alive, feeling so real
On this stormy night, the rain is coming down
Rain like never before
I've got some records on, and some bottles of wine
On this stormy night, the rain is lashing down
And I'm waiting for her

 

Cherry Bomb

Lyrics

Teenage queen, a sweet gamine
Immortal youth a libertine
Is she real or just a dream
My heart beats fast like benzedrine

Every time that she walks by
Sends shivers down my spine
Makes me want to die

She is out there on her own
Perfection in her chromosomes
She walks by I need to know
Her blood red lips as soft as snow

Every time that she walks by
Sends shivers down my spine
Makes me want to die

She's a cherry bomb
She's a bullet in my head
Pull the trigger and I'm dead
Oh, oh, oh, oh, yeah

When she walks across the floor
Electric shock and my heart is raw
Is she real or just a dream
My heart beats fast like benzedrine

Every time that she walks by
Sends shivers down my spine
Makes me want to die

She's a cherry bomb
She's a bullet in my head
Pull the trigger and I'm dead
Oh, oh, oh, oh, yeah

She's a cherry bomb
Dream about her in my bed
Pull the trigger and I'm dead
Oh, oh, oh, oh, yeah

 

Walking Barefoot

Lyrics

Your beauty took my breath away,
In awe all day
Your company was so relaxing
Easy going ways
We saw the first signs of summer
And springtime change
Walking barefoot along the sand,
I hadn't planned to stay

Yeah we've been walking barefoot all summer
It'll be sad my friend
To see it come to an end
Why can't we just quit

You are broke all summer
But you still sing
Don't need money when it's sunny
Don't need anything
Just need music and sun and laughter
And no currency
The sun on your bare shoulders
It comes for free

Yeah we've been walking barefoot all summer
It'll be sad my friend
To see it come to an end
Why can't we just quit
Yeah we've been walking barefoot all summer
Why can't we just design
To live like this all the time
Why can't we just quit

Sand ran through my fingers
And the land was hot
Anonited by Apollo and his chariot
Disarmed by your charm,
That night I felt it again
Addictive and consuming,
Love's sweet pain

Yeah we've been walking barefoot all summer
It'll be sad my friend
To see it come to an end
Why can't we just quit

Our days are as the wind blows us,
We are free
You've a quiet life out of town
Of coastal ease
The wind it has no pattern,
We take life slow
And when the night has fallen
Our cup overflows

When the summer's gone and the room is cold
When you're looking at the rain and it just won't go

Remember when the sun was high, up above
Remeber when the days were long
And we were in love

Yeah we've been walking barefoot all summer
It'll be sad my friend
To see it come to an end
Why can't we just quit
Yeah we've been walking barefoot all summer
Why can't we just design
To live like this all the time
Why can't we just quit

 

Oh Yeah

Lyrics

Oh Yeah, she was taking me over,
And Oh Yeah it was the start of the summer.
Ooh ah, ooh ah.

On warm June evenings she would come to my house,
Still in her school skirt and her summer blouse,
Talking too long, as the night came on,
It was the best time of my life.
Her bee stung lips, kisses sweeter than wine,
The things she whispered with breathless sighs,
The summer air was soft and warm,
Her eyes were making silent demands
And as her hair came undone in my hands.

Oh Yeah, she was taking me over,
And Oh Yeah, it was the start of the summer.
Oh Yeah, she was taking me over,
And Oh Yeah, it was the start of the summer.
Ooh ah, ooh ah.

Driving her home after midnight
I felt so good, everything was alright,
Her thoughts seemed so lost in the night sky,
I remember everything.
I don't know why these things ever end,
I sometimes wish it was that summer again,
I still see her in my sleep,
And hear the sighing of the summer wind.
Still I don't regret one thing.

Oh Yeah, she was taking me over,
And Oh Yeah, it was the start of the summer.
Oh Yeah, she was taking me over,
And Oh Yeah, it was the start of the summer.
Ooh ah, ooh ah.

Oh Yeah, she was taking me over,
And Oh Yeah, it was the start of the summer.
Oh Yeah, she was taking me over,
And Oh Yeah, it was the start of the summer,
It felt just like it was the start of forever.
And Oh Yeah it was the start of the summer
Ooh ah, ooh ah.

 

Candy

Lyrics

Candy, such a joy to me
Inner city nights, I cannot sleep
Oh candy, sweetest remedy
Only you can ease my troubled dreams

Angel, all people are the same
Caught up in bitterness and blame
Oh candy, on dark and lonely days
I hear your voice whispering my name

Don't you know it's alright to be alone
You can make it on your own
Don't you know it's alright to be alone
You can make it on your own

Angel of the summer stars
I will always see you safe from harm
Candy, we'll never be apart
Night and day you're constant in my heart

Don't you know it's alright to be alone
You can make it on your own
Don't you know it's alright to be alone
You can make it on your own

Oh candy, my dreams
Oh candy, my dreams
Oh candy, my dreams
Oh candy

Candy, pure as driven snow
Come to me, you are not alone
Oh candy, you're everything to me
You and I will always be free

Don't you know it's alright to be alone
You can make it on your own...

 

Kung Fu

Lyrics

Kung Fu do what you do to me
I haven't been the same since my teenage lobotomy
Full on, I moved to Hong Kong
With Bruce Lee's brother and Johnny Wong

I think it's strange, he's friends with Fu Manchu
And he thinks he knows you, uh uh uh uh uh oh
Oh Daniel San made in Taiwan
Come on Jackie Chan, uh uh uh uh uh oh

Last night Jackie Chan came around
I played pool with him and we hung out
Mr. Miagi and the X-men
Called in for a while as well

I think it's strange, he's friends with Fu Manchu
And he thinks he knows you, uh uh uh uh uh oh
Oh Daniel San made in Taiwan
Come on Jackie Chan, uh uh uh uh uh oh

Kung Fu do what you do to me
I can't live without my Kung Fu movies
Shanghai Killers and Deadly Road
My life was ruined when the Green Dragon closed

Oh I think it's strange, he's friends with Fu Manchu
And he thinks he knows you, uh uh uh uh uh oh
Oh Daniel San made in Taiwan
Come on Jackie Chan, uh uh uh uh uh oh
I think it's strange, he's friends with Fu Manchu
And he's in love with you, uh uh uh uh uh oh
Oh Daniel San made in Taiwan
Come on Jackie Chan, uh uh uh uh uh oh

 

Girl From Mars

Lyrics

Do you remember the time I knew a Girl From Mars?
I don't know if you knew that.
Oh we'd stay up late playing cards, Henry Winterman Cigars.
And she never told me her name,
I still love you, the Girl From Mars.

Sitting in a dreamy daze by the water's edge, on a cool summer's night.
Fireflies and the stars in the sky, gentle glowing light, from your cigarette.
The breeze blowing softly on my face, reminds me of something else.
Something that in my memory has been misplaced, suddenly it all comes back.
And as I look to the stars.

I remember the time I knew a Girl From Mars,
I don't know if you knew that.
Oh we'd stay up late playing cards, Henry Winterman Cigars.
Though she never told me her name,
I still love you, Girl From Mars.

Surging through the darkness over the moonlight strand, electricity in the air.
Twisting all through the night on the terrace, now that summer's here.
I know that you are almost in love with me, I can see it in your eyes.
Strange lights shimmering over the sea tonight, and it almost blows my mind
And as I look to the stars

I remember the time I knew a Girl From Mars,
I don't know if you knew that.
Oh we'd stay up late playing cards, Henry Winterman Cigars.
Though she never told me her name,
I still love you, Girl From Mars.

Today I sleep in the chair by the window, it felt as if you'd returned.
I thought that you were standing over me, when I woke there was no-one there.
I still love you, the Girl From....

MARS!

Do you remember the time I knew a Girl From Mars?
I don't know if you knew that.
Oh we'd stay up late playing cards, Henry Winterman Cigars.
Though she never told me her name.

Do you remember the time I knew a Girl From Mars?
I don't know if you knew that.
Oh we'd stay up late playing cards, Henry Winterman Cigars.
And I still dream of you,
I still love you, Girl From Mars.

 

Only In Dreams
By Weezer

Lyrics

You can't resist her
She's in your bones
She is your marrow
And your ride home

You can't avoid her
She's in the air (in the air)
In between molecules of
Oxygen and carbon dioxide

Only in dreams
See what it means
Reach out our hands
Hold on to hers
But when we wake
It's all been erased
And so it seems
Only in dreams

You walk up to her
Ask her to dance
She says, "Hey baby,
I just might take that chance"

You say it's a good thing
That you float in the air (in the air)
That there's no way you will
Crush your pretty toenails into a thousand pieces

Only in dreams
See what it means
Reach out our hands
Hold on to hers
But when we wake
It's all been erased
And so it seems
Only in dreams

Only in dreams
Only in dreams
Only in dreams
Only in dreams
Only in dreams
Only in dreams
Only in dreams

 

Wild Surf

Lyrics

Come on
Yeah come on while we still can
Yeah come on while it still stands
Burning in my head

Tonight
Beneath the moon rays, we stand in the doorway
Looking towards other skies, they are yours and mine for now
Yeah ride, ride the wild surf
Until the dawn, is ushered in at your word
Your heart must always burn
Burn like a star
In the cold night
Yeah, burn until the dawn light
And make it to a new time, burning in my head
Yeah so come on
Yeah come on while we still can
Yeah come on while it still stands
Burning in my head

Tonight
The sky above us, Dark and wondrous
How could you be unsure?
It's all mine and yours, for now
Yeah ride, ride the wild surf
Until the dawn, iIs ushered in at your word
Your heart must always burn
Burn like a star
In the cold night
Yeah, burn until the dawn light
And make it to a new time
Burning in my head

Yeah, we're gonna make it to the new times
We're gonna make it from the old times
We're gonna make it to the good times that's for sure
Ain't gonna let it slip away
Ain't gonna let this chance fade
Ain't gonna let it go in vain
Ain't gonna let it slip away

Yeah so come on
Yeah come on while we still can
Yeah come on while it still stands
Burning in my head

In the cold night
Yeah, burn until the dawn light
And make it to a new time
Burning in my head

 

Jack Names The Planets

Lyrics

We were walking, walking in two worlds
In the gardens of sunlight home
Bad children on the phone
Withheld me to withhold you

I said I'd kiss you, if you want
You've got things back to front
I got a letter, I sent it back
I didn't like it honey, what you had

Jack Names The Planets after you
Jack Names The Planets after you
Jack Names The Planets after you hoo
You hoo

When I turned, you had gone away
So I didn't skip upon that day
Morose feelings, small mind
Don't touch his face, you might like his kind

I said I'd kiss you, if you want
You've got things back to front
Don't mind your spelling, it ain't so bad
Things like that they never made me quite so mad as you

Jack Names The Planets after you
Jack Names The Planets after you
Jack Names The Planets after you hoo
Yer hoo

Jack Names The Planets after you
Jack Names The Planets after you
Jack Names The Planets after you hoo
Yer hoo

I wish you'd come back, everything's ready for you
You are welcome, if you plan to
You can come walking, and you know where
You've got to understand, that you got to care

I said I'd kiss you, if you want
You've got things back to front
My mother's dying, I've got to go home
But there's more you won't be solely on your own now

Jack Names The Planets after you
Jack Names The Planets after you
Jack Names The Planets after you hoo
Yer hoo
Yer hoo
Yer hoo
Yer hoo
Yer hoo
Yer hoo
Yer hoo

Lose Control

Lyrics

I can't, I can't stop thinking,
'Bout you at all, I called you up,
To come on round tonight.
You wouldn't give a straight answer,
But you wouldn't say no, even though
You're going with him.

Here comes the night, Lead me on
In your veins, Warm inside,
Heart beats fast, Lights are low,
I want you, Let it go.

You arrive with cool in your eyes
And explain to me how he makes you feel inside,
So safe, secure.
Later on as night is falling,
You bring me on with violent words,
Desire and being young.

Here comes the night, Lead me on
In your veins, Warm inside,
Heart beats fast, Lights are low,
I want you, Let it go.

Here comes the night - it is coming on
The lights are low and our record's on
Inside your veins and you lead me on
Here comes the night - it is coming on

 

Jesus Says

Lyrics

One million light years from home,
Throwing up and feeling small.
Where have I gone and landed tonight?
I've been shot right to the core.
Of NYC and hostility yeah,
But you gotta laugh.
'Cos there's something that I cannot do without,
And it's in your hand.

Where have I gone and landed tonight?
A million light years from home.
Throwing up and feeling small,
And now I know that my mind is blown.
'Cos there's something that I cannot live without,
Something that I understand.
Yeah there's something that I cannot do without,
And it's in your hand.

Cut down, shot down, any way you please,
Don't get nothing for free.
Big time, small time, any way you choose yeah,
Don't mean nothing to me.

Where have I gone and landed tonight?
God give me strength,
In a land of fakes and small time petty thieves,
Must be the wrong place.
'Cos all my honesty is true yeah,
But it's gone to waste,
On a soulless superficial void,
Called the human race.

Cut down, shot down, any way you please,
Don't get nothing for free.
Big time, small time, any way you choose yeah,
But you gotta compete.

Where have I gone and landed tonight?
I'm throwing up and feeling small.
One million light years from home,
I've been shot right to the core.
Of NYC and hostility yeah,
But you gotta laugh,
'Cos there's something that I cannot do without,
And it's in your hand.

Cut down, shot down, any way you please
Don't get nothing for free.
Big time, small time, any way you please yeah
Don't mean f*** all to me.
Yeah I've been cut down, shot down, any way you please, yeah.
Sisters and brothers please, yeah.
Big time, small time, any way you please, yeah.
Don't mean nothing to me.

 

Numbskull

Lyrics

Shooting from the hip,
Slipping from an iron grip,
Going further than I've ever been,
Into the realms of the unseen.
Fate is your enemy,
Rebel against your destiny,
Going further than I've ever been,
Yeah further than I've ever been.

Got a beautiful face, got a f***ed up inside.
Need a shot of your faith, come along for the ride
Yeah, love is your faith, yeah, death is your fate.

Never going to reach my goal,
I know 'cos I have been told.
Never finding happiness,
Eternally in unrest.
This is where the love lies,
I've seen to the other side,
It's always just out of reach,
Yeah, but always just within my sight.

Got a beautiful face, got a f***ed up inside.
Need a shot of your faith, come along for the ride
Yeah, love is your faith, yeah, death is your fate
Yeah, death is your fate come along for the ride

Going further than I've ever been.

Got a beautiful face, got a f***ed up inside
Need a shot of your faith, come along for the ride
Yeah, love is your faith, yeah, death is your fate
Yeah, death is your fate, come along for the ride
Got a beautiful face got a f***ed up inside
Need a shot of your faith, come along for the ride
Yeah, love is your faith, yeah, death is your fate
Need a shot of your faith, come along for the ride
