|:1 2 3 4 just another whore
Working hard to get her score:|
In the cold winter rain
Cramps in her stomach
Withdrawal pains
Addiction haunt
Night and day
For her cravings she must pay

I walk down my street at night
The city lights are cold and violent
I am comforted by the approaching sounds of trucks and sirens
Even though the world's so bad
These men rush out to help the dying
And though I am no use to them
I do my part by simply smiling

I tried to fall in it again
My friends took bets and disappeared
They mime their sighing violins
I think I'll wait another year

I want my chest pressed to your chest
My nervous systems interfere
Ten or eleven months at best

s it enough to have some love,
Small enough to slip inside a book,
Small enough to cover with your hand?
Because everyone around you wants to look.

Is it enough to have some love,
Small enough to slip inside the cracks?
The pieces don't fit together so good

I could do the dishes while talking on the phone
i could ask you for an answer but you want to be alone
I can never do the dishes a single dish at a time
It's too much of a commitment so I line them up and fire

I could calamine your insides
I could wind them all around me I could
tiptoe on a tightrope made of fear and looking down see

But they all look so ugly and mean when you're sober
You've auctioned away all your crimson and clover
And Ronny leaves lines out and lights up the curtain
You know what you're doing, you know it for certain
The last thing I saw, they were reading your rights
If you're gonna go down, then you're going down fighting
As long as you're bent
And as long as they're watching

You’d think I’d shot their children
From the way that they are talking
And there’s no point in responding
‘Cause it will not make them stop.

And I am tired of explaining
And of seeing so much hating
In the very same safe havens

Blake says no one ever really loved him
They just faked it to get money from the government
And Blake thinks angels grow when you plant angel dust
He shakes his pretty head
But darling, trust me, trust me
He's no valentine
Though he said he would be mine
His heart is in Alaska all the time

Когда ты был здесь раньше,
Я не могла посмотреть тебе в глаза.
Ты прямо как ангел,
Твоя кожа заставляет меня рыдать.
Ты паришь как перо
В прекрасном мире,
Ты такой особенный...
Хотела бы я быть особенной.

when i was six years old my sister alyson
asked for a stove for her birthday
a miniature one you could actually cook with
and my mom was nice and she bought one

alyson needed a reason to bake something
barged in my room and she grabbed me
she said:

Wake... from your sleep
The drying of your tears
Today.. we escape
We escape.

Pack and get dressed
Before your father hears us
Before.. all hell.. breaks loose.

I have to drive
I have my reasons, dear
It’s cold outside
I hate the seasons here

I suffer mornings most of all
I feel so powerless and small
By ten o’clock I’m back in bed

Two jumps in a week,
I bet you think that's pretty clever don't you boy?
Flying on your motorcycle,
watching all the ground beneath you drop
You'd kill yourself for recognition,
kill yourself to never, ever stop
You broke another mirror,
you're turning into something you are not

I Google you
Я гуглю тебя
Late at night when I don't know what to do
Поздно ночью, когда я не знаю чем заняться
I find photos you've forgotten you were in
Я нахожу фотографии, про которые ты уже забыл
Put up by your friends
Добавленные твоими друзьями

Who's in the bunker?
Who's in the bunker?
Women and children first
Women and children first
Women and children
I'll laugh until my head comes off
I'll swallow Until I burst
Until I burst

In a Manner of speaking
I just want to say
That I could never forget the way
You told me everything
By saying nothing

In a manner of speaking
I don't understand

We watch you, your expert double exes.
It's just like you to paint those whiter fences

It's so polite, it's so polite its offensive its offensive
It's so unright, it's so unright its a technical, accept it

But who needs love when there's law & order
And who needs love when there's southern comfort

they don t play the song on the radio
they don t show the tits in the video
they don t know that we are the media
they don t know that we start the mania
i don t want to see but i m making you
ass is off it s seat and i m shaking you
walking down the street i m the lady - ja
showing off my map of tasmania

My friend has problems with winter & autumn.
They give him prescriptions, they shine bright lights on him.
They say it's genetic, they say he can't help it, they say you can catch it - but sometimes you're born with it.
My friend has plight, he gets shakes in the night & they say that there's no way that they could have caught it in time takes its toll on him.
It is traditional.
It is inherited.
Predisposition-
All day I've been wondering what is inside of me, who can I blame for it?

And the last thing I'd recall
Her body standing on the stove
Sandy wiping her grey eyes
I was pleased and frightened
To see a grownup woman cry
She blamed her housemaid for her mind
But I think that they all knew it had to happen some time

A peculiar thing happened to me this morning,
Just as I reached into my pocket to find it empty of any sow,
I saw two broken twigs on the ground
Shaped like the Greek letters F and S.
F and S, Helium, F, and S
These are the chemical symbols for iron and sulphur
It was a sign, I am sure, for me to make gold out of these two elements
I have been working all day

I wouldn't kill to win a war
I don't get what they do it for
It's all so terribly vague
I see the pictures from a thousand years of battle
And I think it's such a bore

I walk New Orleans with a knife
Like Mackie hidden out of sight

Oh what a noble distiguished collection of fine little friends you have made
hitting the tables without you again no we'll wait no we promise we'll wait
june makes these excellent sewing machines out of common industrial waste
she spends a few months at a time on the couch
but she's safe she wears shades she wears shades
oh but no one can stare at the wall as good as you my baby doll
and you're racist for playing along
you're only human after all

I’ve loaned a lot of things to a lot of friends
Like records and dresses and books
And a lot of the time I never see them again
And in a weird way I think that that works

Because the thing about things is they start turn evil
When you start to forget what they’re for
And so if you’re not sure what you did with my sweater

they've been circling
they've been circling
since the day they were born

it's disturbing
how they're circling
fifty feet from the pond

Hitler and
Napoleon
Fought thirty years
To have her hand

Bitter ends
Thy will be damned
Disney magic
