[death tribble]

Caroline laughs and it's raining all day
She loves to be one of the girls
She lives in the place in the side of our lives
Where nothing is ever put straight
She turns her self round and she smiles and she says
"This is it that's the end of the joke"
And loses herself in her dreaming and sleep
And her lovers walk through in their coaches

 

Pretty in pink, isn't she ?
Pretty in pink, isn't she ?

[death tribble]

Stop, Hammer time !

[death tribble]

Though I live on the edge time is on my side
All the doors to my life are open wide
Just as long as the wheels keep on turning 'round
I will live for the groove 'til the sun goes down

Living it up, living it up
I can feel it
Living it up
Is it a crazy notion ?
Living it up, living it up
I can feel it
Living it up
I got forward motion

[death tribble]

It's happy hour again
I think I might be happy if I wasn't out with them
And they're happy it's a lovely place to be
Happy that the fire is real the barman is a she

Where the haircuts smile
And the meaning of style
Is a night out with the boss
Where you win or you lose
And its them who choose
And if you don't win then you've lost

What a good place to be
Don't believe it
'Cause they speak a different language
And it's never really happened to me
{It's happy hour again}
Don't believe it
'Cause they speak a different language
And it's never really happened to me
{It's happy hour again}

It's another night out with the boss
Following in footsteps overgrown with moss
And they tell me that women grow on trees
And if you catch them right they will land upon their knees

Where they open all their wallets
And they close all their minds
And they love to buy you all a drink
And then we ask all the questions
And you take all your clothes off
And go back to the kitchen sink

[death tribble]

I'm on my way I'm making it, huh!
I've got to make it show yeah, hey!
So much larger than life
I'm gonna watch it growing
Hey hey hey heyyyyyyy

The place where I come from is a small town
They think so small, they use small words
But not me, I'm smarter than that,
I worked it out
I'll be stretching my mouth to let those big words come right out
I've had enough, I'm getting out
to the city, the big big city
I'll be a big noise with all the big boys, so much stuff I will own
And I will pray to a big god, as I kneel in the big church

Big time, I'm on my way I'm making it, big time, oh yes
Big time, I've got to make it show yeah, big time
Big time, so much larger than life
Big time, I'm gonna watch it growing, big time
Ho ohh ohh, oh oh, ho ohh ohh, oh ohhh

[death tribble]

YEAAAH!

The world is my expense
The cost of my desire
Jesus blessed me with its future
And I protect it with fire
So raise your fists and march around
Don't dare take what you need
I'll jail and bury those committed
And smother the rest in greed
Crawl with me into tomorrow
Or I'll drag you to your grave
I'm deep inside your children
They'll betray you in my name

Hey !
Hey !
Sleep now in the fire

Hey !
Hey !
Sleep now in the fire

[death tribble]

Move his way, nice and slow
Paint it all black, let the humorous glow
He feels like sacher-masoch and the fire below
Is licking at his lips

 

Cracks the whip
Come on, crack
Crack the whip

 

Swallowing flames, sinking in the snow
He enjoys feeling pain, he enjoys peeling slow
Lagartija Nick, it's no dumb show
Your names on his whip

 

Crack the whip
Come on, crack

 

A code of play, a nocturn rite
In the cruel garden of dark delights
Sixteen cages crawl in line
Desire is a heady wine

 

Come on, crack
Crack

 

All in pain, it's no dumb show
Fire below
Is licking at his lips
Swallowing flame, crack

[death tribble]

Another suburban family morning.
Grandmother screaming at the wall.

We have to shout above the din of our Rice Crispies
We can't hear anything at all.
Mother chants her litany of boredom and frustration,
But we know all her suicides are fake.

Daddy only stares into the distance
There's only so much more that he can take.
Many miles away something crawls from the slime
At the bottom of a dark Scottish lake.

Another industrial ugly morning
The factory belches filth into the sky.
He walks unhindered through the picket lines today,
He doesn't think to wonder why.
The secretaries pout and preen like cheap tarts in a red light street,
But all he ever thinks to do is watch.
And every single meeting with his so-called superior
Is a humiliating kick in the crotch.
Many miles away something crawls to the surface
Of a dark Scottish loch.

Another working day has ended.
Only the rush hour hell to face.
Packed like lemmings into shiny metal boxes.
Contestants in a suicidal race.
Daddy grips the wheel and stares alone into the distance,
He knows that something somewhere has to break.
He sees the family home now looming in his headlights,
The pain upstairs that makes his eyeballs ache.
Many miles away there's a shadow on the door
Of a cottage on the shore
Of a dark Scottish lake
Many miles away

Many miles away

Many miles away

Many miles away

Many miles away

Many miles away

Many miles away

[Greywind]

Here we stand or here we fall
History won't care at all
Make the bed, light the light
Lady Mercy won't be home tonight.

You don't waste no time at all
Don't hear the bell but you answer the call
It comes to you as to us all
We're just waiting for the hammer to fall

Oh every night, and every day
A little piece of you is falling away
But lift your face the Western Way
Build your muscles as your body decays.

Tow the line and play their game
Let the anaesthetic cover it all
Till one day they call your name
You know it's time for the hammer to fall.

Rich or poor or famous for
Your truth it's all the same
(Oh no! Oh no!)
Lock your door but rain is pouring
Through your window pane
(Oh no!)
Baby, now your struggle's all vain.

For we who grew up tall and proud
In the shadow of the Mushroom Cloud
Convinced our voices can't be heard

[Greywind]

Here I am, I'm the master of your destiny,
I am the one the only one, I am the god of kingdom come,
Gimme the prize, just gimme the prize,
Give me your kings, let me squeenze them in my hands,
Your puny princes,
Your so-called leaders of your land,
I'll eat them whole before I'm done,
The battle's fought and the game is won,
I am the only one,
I am the god of kingdom come,
Gimme the prize, just gimme the prize,
Move over, I said move over,
Hey, hey, hey clear the way,
There's no escape from my authority - I tell you -
I am the one the only one, I am the god of kingdom come,
Gimme the prize, just gimme the prize,
I am the only one,
I am the god of kingdom come,
Gimme the prize.

Mississippi in the middle of a dry spell
Jimmy Rogers on the Victrola up high
Mama's dancin' with baby on her shoulder
The sun is settin' like molasses in the sky
The boy could sing, knew how to move, everything
Always wanting more, he'd leave you longing for

 

Black velvet and that little boy's smile
Black velvet with that slow southern style
A new religion that'll bring ya to your knees
Black velvet if you please

 

Up in Memphis the music's like a heatwave
White lightening, bound to drive you wild
Mama's baby's in the heart of every school girl
"Love me tender" leaves 'em cryin' in the aisle
The way he moved, it was a sin, so sweet and true
Always wanting more, he'd leave you longing for

 

Black velvet and that little boy's smile
Black velvet with that slow southern style
A new religion that'll bring ya to your knees
Black velvet if you please

[death tribble]

Mis-shapes, mistakes, misfits.
Raised on a diet of broken biscuits, oh we don't look the same as you
We don't do the things you do, but we live around here too.
Oh really.

 

Mis-shapes, mistakes, misfits, we'd like to go to town but we can't risk it
Oh 'cause they just want to keep us out.
You could end up with a smash in the mouth just for standing out.
Oh really. Brothers, sisters, can't you see ?

 

The future's owned by you and me.
There won't be fighting in the street.
They think they've got us beat, but revenge is going to be so sweet.
We're making a move, we're making it now, we're coming out of the side-lines.

 

Just put your hands up - it's a raid yeah:
We want your homes, we want your lives,
we want the things you won't allow us.
We won't use guns, we won't use bombs
We'll use the one thing we've got more of - that's our minds.

 

Check your lucky numbers, that much money could drag you under, oh.
What's the point of being rich if you can't think what to do with it ?
'Cause you're so very thick.
Oh we weren't supposed to be, we learnt too much at school now
we can't help but see.
That the future that you've got mapped out is nothing much to shout about.

We're making a move, we're making it now,
We're coming out of the side-lines.
Just put your hands up - it's a raid.
We want your homes, we want your lives,
we want the things you won't allow us.
We won't use guns, we won't use bombs
We'll use the one thing we've got more of - that's our minds.

 

Brothers, sisters, can't you see ?
The future's owned by you and me.
There won't be fighting in the street.
They think they've got us beat but revenge is going to be so sweet.
We're making a move. We're making it now.
We're coming out of the sidelines.
Just put your hands up - it's a raid.
We want your homes, we want your lives,
we want the things you won't allow us.
We won't use guns, we won't use bombs
We'll use the one thing we've got more of - that's our minds.
And that's our minds. Yeah.

[death tribble]

People are people so why should it be
You and I should get along so awfully

 

So we're different colours
And we're different creeds
And different people have different needs
It's obvious you hate me
Though I've done nothing wrong
I never even met you
So what could I have done

 

I can't understand
What makes a man
Hate another man
Help me understand

 

People are people so why should it be
You and I should get along so awfully
Help me understand

 

Now you're punching and you're kicking
And you're shouting at me
I'm relying on your common decency
So far it hasn't surfaced
But I'm sure it exists
It just takes a while to travel
From your head to your fist

 

I can't understand
What makes a man
Hate another man
Help me understand

[death tribble]

Riding on any wave
There is the luck you crave
They don't believe it now
They just think it's stupid

 

So got anything ?
Anyone could have done
Who would've cared at all
Not you

 

Another heart has made the trade
Forget it, forget it, forget it
I don't understand how a heart is a spade
But somehow the vital connection is made

[death tribble]

And her name is G. (G) L. (L) O. (O) R, ® I. (I). yi-yi-yi-yi
G.L.O.R.I.A. (Gloria)
G.L.O.R.I.A. (Gloria)
I'm wanna shout it ev'ry night (Gloria)
I'm wanna shout it ev'ry day (Gloria)
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, all right

[death tribble]

Beat surrender
Come on boy, come on girl
Succumb to the beat surrender
All the things that I care about (are packed into one punch)
All the things that I'm not sure about (are sorted out at once)

And as it was in the beginning, so shall it be in the end
That bulls**t is bulls**t, it just goes by different names

All the things that I shout about (but never act upon)
All the courage and the dreams that I have
(but seem to wait so long)
My doubt is cast aside, watch phonies run to hide
The dignified don't even enter in the game

And if you feel there's no passion
No quality sensation
Seize the young determination
Show the fakers you ain't foolin'
You'll see me come runnin'
To the sound of your strummin'
Fill my heart with joy and gladness
I've lived too long in shadows of sadness

[death tribble]

Got brass in pocket
Got bottle I'm gonna use it
Intention I feel inventive
Gonna make you, make you, make you notice

Got motion restrained emotion
Been driving Detroit leaning
No reason just seems so pleasing
Gonna make you, make you, make you notice

Gonna use my arms
Gonna use my legs
Gonna use my style
Gonna use my sidestep
Gonna use my fingers
Gonna use my, my, my imagination

'Cause I gonna make you see
There's nobody else here
No one like me
I'm special so special
I gotta have some of your attention give it to me

[death tribble]

I hurt myself today
To see if I still feel
I focus on the pain
The only thing that's real
The needle tears a hole
The old familiar sting
Try to kill it all away
But I remember everything

What have I become
My sweetest friend
Everyone I know goes away
In the end
And you could have it all
My empire of dirt
I will let you down
I will make you hurt

I wear this crown of thorns
Upon my liar's chair
Full of broken thoughts
I cannot repair
Beneath the stains of time
The feelings disappear
You are someone else
I am still right here

What have I become
My sweetest friend
Everyone I know goes away
In the end
And you could have it all
My empire of dirt
I will let you down
I will make you hurt

If I could start again
A million miles away
I would keep myself
I would find a way

[death tribble]

Like his dad you know that he's had
Animal nitrate in mind
Oh in your council home he jumped on your bones
now you're taking it time after time

oh it turns you on, on, on, now he has gone
oh what turns you on, on, on, now your animal's gone ?

Well he said he'd show you his bed
and the delights of his chemical smile
so in your broken home he broke all of your bones
now you're taking it time after time

oh it turns you on, on, on, now he has gone
oh what turns you on, on, on, now your animal's gone ?

what does it take to turn you on, on
now he has gone ?
now you're over 21 ?
now your animal's gone ?
animal, he was animal, an animal

[death tribble]

Under blue moon I saw you
So soon you'll take me
Up in your arms
Too late to beg you or cancel it
Though I know it must be the killing time
Unwillingly mine

Fate
Up against your will
Through the thick and thin
He will wait until
You give yourself to him

In starlit nights I saw you
So cruelly you kissed me
Your lips a magic world
Your sky all hung with jewels
The killing moon
Will come too soon

Fate
Up against your will
Through the thick and thin
He will wait until
You give yourself to him

[Pariah]

Nibbling on sponge cake

Watching the sun bake

All of those tourists covered with oil

Strumming my six-string

On my front porch swing

Smell those shrimp, hey, they're beginning to boil

 

Wasting away again in Margaritaville

Looking for my lost shaker of salt

Some people claim that there’s a woman to blame

But I know it’s nobody’s fault

 

Don’t know the reason

To stay here all season

Nothing to show but this brand new tattoo

But it’s a real beauty

A Mexican cutie

How it got here, I haven’t a clue

 

Wasting away again in Margaritaville

Looking for my lost shaker of salt

Some people claim that there’s a woman to blame

Now I think, Hell, this could be my fault

 

I blew out my flip flop

Stepped on a pop top

Would my heel have this bruise on back home?

But there’s booze in the blender

And soon it will render

That frozen concoction that helps me hang on

 

Wasting away again in Margaritaville

Looking for my lost shaker of salt

Some people claim that there’s a woman to blame

But I know it’s my own damn fault

 

Yes and, some people claim that there’s a woman to blame

(There always is!)

And I know it’s my own damn fault

[Greywind]

Stranger are you waiting
For someone to come down and love you in time
Stranger you're debating
Can you get the words in your head
And you're heart to rhyme

Feel like a perfect stranger
You been gone so long
It's come down to feeling
And you're feeling wrong

I know how you want to, you're a hero
Under the stars you are wild
Well, come on, I want you I'm telling you
You're only a stranger a little while

Feel like a perfect stranger, you been gone so long
But you still know how to make it baby
You got to make it strong

It just got too heavy to carry
It all came down
But you're still alive, you're still seething
Just in time, you found your time
And your timimg is perfect stranger
What it gets down to, you, you, it's you baby
Only you
Only you
Your timing is perfect stranger
You been gone too long
But it's your time to make baby
Come on and make it strong now

[Greywind]

No wind when I took the watch
My ship was still and waitin'
I lay on that mirrored sky
A restless sail or waitin'
I closed my eyes said the
Words of will for the gentle
Breathin' that moves the seas
Make my sails fill

Whisper waves cloud the glass
Awake at last like a lover
It rushed around the talkin' sweet
Roll over, roll over, roll over
And in my ear he blew his name
It sound so strange but I heard it plain
Mistral Mistral wind

I have always held the wheel but
I let the wind steal my power
Spin me 'round lose my course
Nights run be like hours
Well, it would show me the way
To the deepest mountains
Too high and beautiful to be
Mistral, mistral wind

All the hours on the watch
I wait for that breeze to move me
And blow me back to that place
Magic space all through me
And I sigh your name
Across the empty water
You made a crazy dreamer out of me
Mistral, mistral, mistral, mistral,
Mistral, mistral

[Greywind]

Oooh
Looking at you tonight
Breathless at what I see
In your eyes there's someone
Come to carry me

Some never have a chance
Some throw their chance away
Now it's in my hands
I face it unafraid

If we ever did one thing that was right...

We gave it ALL FOR LOVE
Saved it ALL FOR LOVE
Didn't we touch the fire above
And make music out of madness?
We gave it ALL FOR LOVE

(Whoa-oa-oa)

Everything still to come
One thing will stay the same
We will heal each other
And never turn away

To my lonely heart you are my home...

We gave it ALL FOR LOVE
Saved it ALL FOR LOVE
Didn't we touch the fire above
And make music out of madness?
We gave it ALL FOR LOVE

To my lonely heart you are my home...

(Oooh, to love someone)
(Oooh, to love someone)
Did we touch the fire above (To love someone)
It will carry us forever

Didn't we feel the fire for love (To love someone)
Tear down the walls for love (To love someone)
Didn't we do it ALL FOR LOVE (To love someone)
And make music out of madness?
We gave it all, we gave it ALL FOR LOVE

Show me the way to your heart (Whoa-oa-oa)
Show me the way to your heart
Show me the way, yeah
(Whoa-oa-oa)

[Greywind]

dreamy lips set in motion flashing
breathless hush pounding soft lasting
glossy mouth taste untamed moving
carousel up and down
just like you

oh baby
just one more time to touch you
just one more time to tell you
you're on my mind
baby, why can't i have you
you're breaking my heart in two
you know what i'm going through
oh baby, why can't i have you

candy smile all the while glinting
your eyes like mica lethal pout hinting
felt the pressure tight and warm softly striking
i tripped and stumbled
i cling forever
i go all night

oh baby, just one more time to touch you
just one more time to tell you
i'm not so blind
baby, why can't i have you
it's breaking my heart in two
you know what i'm going through
oh baby, why can't i have you
