Pariah

Recommended Posts

When the room is quiet, the daylight almost gone
It seems there's something I should know
Well, I ought to leave but the rain it never stops
And I've no particular place to go

 

Just when I think I'm winning
When I've broken every door
The ghosts of my life
Blow wilder than before

 

Just when I thought I could not be stopped
When my chance came to be king
The ghosts of my life
Blew wilder than the wind

 

Well, I'm feeling nervous, now I find myself alone
The simple life's no longer there
Once I was so sure, now the doubt inside my mind
Comes and goes, but leads nowhere

 

Just when I think I'm winning
When I've broken every door
The ghosts of my life
Blow wilder than before

 

Just when I thought I could not be stopped
When my chance came to be king
The ghosts of my life
Blew wilder than the wind

 

Just when I think I'm winning
When I've broken every door
The ghosts of my life
Blow wilder than before

 

Just when I thought I could not be stopped
When my chance came to be king
The ghosts of my life
Blew wilder than the wind

And the women tug their hair
Like they're trying to prove it won't fall out
And all the men are gargoyles
Dipped long in Irish stout

The whole place is pickled
The people are pickles for sure
And no-one knows if they've done more here
Than they ever would do in a jar

This could be Rotterdam or anywhere
Liverpool or Rome
'Cause Rotterdam is anywhere
Anywhere alone
Anywhere alone

And everyone is blonde
And everyone is beautiful
And when blondes and beautiful are multiple
They become so dull and dutiful

And when faced with dull and dutiful
They fire red warning flares
Battle-Khaki personality
With red underwear

This could be Rotterdam or anywhere
Liverpool or Rome
'Cause Rotterdam is anywhere
Anywhere alone
Anywhere alone

The whole place is pickled
The people are pickles for sure
And no-one knows if they've done more here
Than they ever would do in a jar

This could be Rotterdam or anywhere
Liverpool or Rome
'Cause Rotterdam is anywhere
Anywhere alone

This could be Rotterdam or anywhere
Liverpool or Rome
'Cause Rotterdam is anywhere
Anywhere alone

All I want to do is see you again
Is that too much to ask for
I just want to see your sweet smile
Smiled the way it was before
Well I'll try not to hold you
And I'll try not to kiss you
And I won't even touch you

All I want to do is see you
Don't you know that it's true
I remember the days when we walked through the woods
We'd sit on a bench for a while
I treasure the way we used to laugh and play
And look in each others eyes
You can keep me at a distance if you don't trust my resistance
But I swear I won't touch you

Well I know five years is a long time and that times change
But I think that you'll find people are basically the same

If the water's still flowing we can go for a swim
And do the things we used to do
And if I'm reluctant you can pull me in
We can relive our youth

But we'll just stay friendly like sister and brother
Though I think I still love you

Summertime,
If I was getting paid
For getting drunk and getting laid.
I'd grab a phone
Just to cal you up and say
Quit your job
Cause I got it made.

Anytime, baby let's go
Everyday should be a holiday.

Super cool,
The Dandys rule okay !
Got the dough and
I got the raves.
Anytime call me up if you got the sun,
Cause I got the waves.

Anytime, baby let's go
Everyday should be a holiday.

Outside
Gets inside
Through her skin.
I've been out before
But this time it's much safer in.

Last night in the sky,
Such a bright light.
My radar send me danger
But my instincts tell me to keep

Breathing,
("Out, in, out, in, out, in...")
Breathing,
Breathing my mother in,
Breathing my beloved in,
Breathing,
Breathing her nicotine,
Breathing,
Breathing the fall-out in,
Out in, out in, out in, out in.

We've lost our chance.
We're the first and the last, ooh,
After the blast.
Chips of Plutonium
Are twinkling in every lung.

I love my
Beloved, ooh,
All and everywhere,
Only the fools blew it.
You and me
Knew life itself is

Breathing,
("Out, in, out, in, out...")
Breathing,
Breathing my mother in,
Breathing my beloved in,
Breathing,
Breathing her nicotine,
Breathing,
Breathing the fall-out in,
Out in, out in, out in, out in,
Out in, out in, out in, out...
("Out !")

"In point of fact it is possible to tell the
("Out !")
difference between a small nuclear explosion and
a large one by a very simple method. The calling
card of a nuclear bomb is the blinding flash that
is far more dazzling than any light on earth--brighter
even than the sun itself--and it is by the duration
of this flash that we are able to determine the size
("What are we going to do without ?")
of the weapon. After the flash a fireball can be
seen to rise, sucking up under it the debris, dust
and living things around the area of the explosion,
and as this ascends, it soon becomes recognisable
as the familiar "mushroom cloud". As a demonstration
of the flash duration test let's try and count the
number of seconds for the flash emitted by a very
small bomb; then a more substantial, medium-sized
bomb; and finally, one of our very powerful,
"high-yield" bombs

"What are we going to do without ?"
Ooh please !
"What are we going to do without ?"
Let me breathe !
"What are we going to do without ?"
Ooh, Quick !
"We are all going to die without !"
Breathe in deep !
"What are we going to die without ?"
Leave me something to breathe !
"We are all going to die without !"
Oh, leave me something to breathe !
"What are we going to do without ?"
Oh, God, please leave us something to breathe !"
"We are all going to die without
Oh, life is--Breathing

Dancing with tears in my eyes
Weeping for the memory of a life gone by
Dancing with tears in my eyes
Living out a memory of a love that died

 

It's five and I'm driving home again
It's hard to believe that it's my last time
The man on the wireless cries again
"It's over, it's over"

 

Dancing with tears in my eyes
Weeping for the memory of a life gone by
Dancing with tears in my eyes
Living out a memory of a love that died

 

It's late and I'm with my love alone
We drink to forget the coming storm
We love to the sound of our favorite song
Over and over

 

Dancing with tears in my eyes
Living out a memory of a love that died

It's time and we're in each others arms
It's time but I don't think we really care

 

Dancing with tears in my eyes
Weeping for the memory of a life gone by
Dancing with tears in my eyes
Weeping for the memory of a life gone by

 

Dancing with tears in my eyes

The look of love
Is in your eyes
A look your smile can't
disguise

The look of love
Is saying so much more than
Just words could every say
And what my heart has heard
Well it takes my breath away

I can hardly wait to hold you
Feel my arms around you
How long I have waited
Waited just to love you
Now that I have found you

You've got the look of love
It's on your face
A look that time can't erase
Baby be mine, tonight

Let this be just the start of
So many nights like this
Let's take a lovers vow
And seal it with a kiss

I can hardly wait to hold you
Feel my arms around you
How long I have waited
Waited just to love you
Now that I have found you

Don't ever go
Don't ever go
I love you so
The look of love

Let this be just the start of
So many nights like this
Let's take a lover's vow
And baby we'll seal it with a kiss

I can hardly wait to hold you
Feel my arms around you
How long I have waited
Waited just to love you
Now that I have found you

Hell is gone and heaven's here
There's nothing left for you to fear
Shake your arse come over here
Now scream
I'm a burning effigy
Of everything I used to be
You're my rock of empathy, my dear

So come on let me entertain you
Let me entertain you

Life's too short for you to die
So grab yourself an alibi
Heaven knows your mother lied
Mon cher
Separate your right from wrongs
Come and sing a different song
The kettle's on so don't be long
Mon cher

So come on let me entertain you
Let me entertain you

Look me up in the yellow pages
I will be your rock of ages
Your see through fads and your crazy phrases yeah
Little Bo Peep has lost his sheep
He popped a pill and fell asleep
The dew is wet but the grass is sweet, my dear
Your mind gets burned with the habits you've learned
But we're the generation that's got to be heard
You're tired of your teachers and your school's a drag
You're not going to end up like your mum and dad

So come on let me entertain you
Let me entertain you
Let me entertain you
He may be good he may be outta sight
But he can't be here so come around tonight
Here is the place where the feeling grows
You gotta get high before you taste the lows
So come on
Let me entertain you
Let me entertain you
So come on let me entertain me
Let me entertain you
Come on come on come on come on

We'll be together again
I've been waiting for a long time
We're gonna be we're gonna be
Together again
I've been connected to the right line
We'll be together and nobody ain't never
Gonna disconnect us or ever separate us
Or say to us you've got to

Stop !
Stand there where you are
Before you go too far
Before you make a fool out of love
Stop !
Don't jump before you look
Get hung upon a hook
Before you make a fool out of love

We'll be together again
I've been waiting for a long time
We're gonna be we're gonna be
Together again
I've been connected to the right line
We'll be together and nobody ain't never
Gonna disconnect us or ever separate us
Or say to us you've got to

Stop !
Stand there where you are
Before you go too far
Before you make a fool out of love
Stop !
Don't jump before you look
Get hung upon a hook
Before you make a fool out of love

Gonna disconnect us or ever separate us

Stop !
Stand there where you are
Before you go too far
Before you make a fool out of love

Get hung upon a hook

Before you go too far
Before you make a fool out of love
Stop !

Get hung upon a hook
Before you make a fool out of love

Before you go too far
Before you make a fool out of love
Stop !
Don't jump before you look
Get hung upon a hook
Before you make a fool out of love

Stop !

Once upon a time when
we were friends
I gave you my heart, the story ends -
No happy ever after now we're friends.

 

Wish upon a star if that might help,
The stars collide if you decide,
Wish upon a star if that might help.

 

What's it like to have loved and to lose her touch ?
What's it like to have loved and to lose that much ?

 

Well, I hope and I pray that maybe someday
You'll walk in the room with my heart.
Add and subtract but as a matter of fact
Now that you're gone I still want you back.
Remembering surrendering,
Remembering that part - all of my heart.

Spilling up in silk and coffee lace,
You hook me up a rendezvous at your place,
Your lipstick and your lipgloss seals my fate.

 

Sentimental powers might help you now
But skip the hearts and flowers, skip the ivory towers,
You'll be disappointed and I'll lose a friend.

No, I won't be told there's a crock of gold at the end of the
rainbow,
Or that pleasure and pain,
Sunshine and rain might make this love grow.

 

But I hope and I pray that maybe someday
You'll walk in the room with my heart.
Add and subtract but as a matter of fact
Now that you're gone I still want you back.
Remembering - surrendering,
The kindest struck the coolest heart - all of my heart.

 

Yes, I hope and I pray that maybe someday
You'll walk in the room with my heart.
And I shrug and I say that maybe today you'll come home soon.
Surrendering - remembering,
Surrendering that heart, all of my heart - all of my heart

This whole town
Was built to bleed you dry
Will laugh to see you cry
Be strong, Love, our day will come

 

This whole town
Will scold you as they spill
Their wine you're told to fill
Be strong, Love, our day will come

 

Out numbered, outranked, out muscled, outflanked and outgunned
Take another long trip on a short plank at a dead run
But baby, we got 'em
We got 'em right where we want 'em now!

 

This whole town
Allows no moving parts
No room for human hearts
Be strong, Love, our day will come

This whole town
Would hollow out the sky
Forbid your wings to fly
Be strong, Love, our day will come
 

Out numbered, outranked, out muscled, outflanked and outgunned
Take another long trip on a short plank at a dead run
Cause baby, we got 'em
got 'em right where we want 'em now!

We got e'm Baby we got 'em

got 'em right where we want 'em now!

Be strong love, Got 'em right where we want 'em now

Be strong love, Got 'em right where we want 'em now

 

Yes, we'll pity those
Whol'll never know
Blue jeans, radio, rebel soul
And rock and roll
'Cause baby, we got 'em

 

Out numbered, outranked, out muscled, outflanked and outgunned

Take another long trip on a short plank at a dead run
Cause baby, we got 'em
got 'em right where we want 'em now!

We got e'm Baby we got 'em

got 'em right where we want 'em now!

Be strong love, Got 'em right where we want 'em now

Be strong love, Got 'em right where we want 'em now

Be strong love, Got 'em right where we want 'em now

I'm for standin' up, I'm for breakin' free
I don't want fate handed down onto me
Yeah, I'm for movin' on, try another town
Time ain't changin' nothin', take a look around

Oh, I'm lost in a one story town
Where everything's close to the ground
Yeah, the same shit goes down
Nothing turns around, it's a one story town

She was only seventeen but I held her to her word
Had to push her luck and thought she couldn't burn
No, it didn't hurt me when she had to leave
She had a far away feeling wasn't part of me

Oh, I'm lost in a one story town
Where everything's close to the ground
Yeah, the same shit goes down
Nothing turns around, it's a one story town

If I fall along the way
Pick me up and dust me off
And if I get too tired to make it
Be my breath so I can walk

If I need some other love, then
Give me more than I can stand
And when my smile gets old and faded
Wait around I'll smile again

Shouldn't be so complicated
Just hold me and then
Oh, just hold me again

Can you help me I'm bent
I'm so scared that I'll never
Get put back together
Keep breaking me in
And this is how we will end
With you and me bent

Cover me with shades of disbelief
Can happiness be someone's else's grief
Numbers, colours to spell my name
Move about as values change

Catch me if you can but don't delay
 

Today Today
It's a dream away
Today Today

Governed by the title on the wall
Commit me to a life within a fool
Happiness can often bleed
Beggars lay among the sheep
Let me take the choice the sermon pleads

Today Today
It's a dream away
Today Today
A dream away

 

Visions in my cell begin to breed
Was everything a fact of what I'd read
Excuse me while I spell my name
Boat and ship could sound the same
Catch me if you can but don't delay

 

Today Today
It's a dream away
Today Today
A dream away

 

Belle Malissima
Today Today
It's a dream away
Today Today
A dream away

She wanted to test her husband
She knew exactly what to do
A pseudonym to fool him
She couldn't have made a worse move

She sent him scented letters,
And he received them with a strange delight.
Just like his wife
But how she was before the tears,
And how she was before the years flew by,
And how she was when she was beautiful.
She signed the letter

"All yours,
Babooshka, Babooshka, Babooshka-ya-ya!
All yours,
Babooshka, Babooshka, Babooshka-ya-ya!"

She wanted to take it further,
So she arranged a place to go,
To see if he
Would fall for her incognito.
And when he laid eyes on her,
He got the feeling they had met before.
Uncanny how she
Reminds him of his little lady,
Capacity to give him all he needs,
Just like his wife before she freezed on him,
Just like his wife when she was beautiful.
He shouted out, "I'm

All yours,
Babooshka, Babooshka, Babooshka-ya-ya!
All yours,
Babooshka, Babooshka, Babooshka-ya-ya!
All yours,
Babooshka, Babooshka, Babooshka-ya-ya!"

Baby, although I chose this lonely life
It seems it's strangling me now
All the wild men, big cigars, gigantic cars
They're all laughing at me now
Oh I've been used
I've been taken for a fool, oh what a fool
I broke all the rules
But I won't let the show go on
Baby look there's an enormous crowd of people
And they're all after my blood
I wish maybe they'd tear down the walls
Of this theatre and let me out, let me out
Oh I've been so blind
I've wasted time
Wasted, wasted, oh so much time
Walking on the wire, high wire
But I won't let the show go on

Oh I've been so blind
I've wasted time
Wasted, wasted, oh so much time
Walking on the wire, high wire
But I won't let the show go on
Baby I wish you'd help me escape
And help me get away
Leave me outside my address
Far away from this masquerade
I've been so used I've been so abused
I've been a fool I broke all the rules
I've been so used oh and abused
But I won't let the show go
I said I won't let the show oh
Won't let the show go on

I was bruised and battered, I couldn't tell what I felt.
I was unrecognizable to myself.
Saw my reflection in a window and didn't know my own face.
Oh brother are you gonna leave me wastin' away
On the streets of Philadelphia.

I walked the avenue, 'til my legs felt like stone,
I heard the voices of friends, vanished and gone,
At night I could hear the blood in my veins,
It was just as black and whispering as the rain,
On the streets of Philadelphia.

Ain't no angel gonna greet me.
It's just you and I my friend.
And my clothes don't fit me no more,
I walked a thousand miles
Just to slip this skin.

Night has fallen, I'm lyin' awake,
I can feel myself fading away,
So receive me brother with your faithless kiss,
Or will we leave each other alone like this
On the streets of Philadelphia

Sometimes I think that I know
What love's all about
And when I see the light
I know I'll be all right.

I've got my friends in the world,
I had my friends
When we were boys and girls
And the secrets came unfurled.

City of brotherly love
Place I call home
Don't turn your back on me
I don't want to be alone
Love lasts forever.

Someone is talking to me,
Calling my name
Tell me I'm not to blame
I won't be ashamed of love.

Philadelphia,
City of brotherly love.
Brotherly love.

Sometimes I think that I know
What love's all about
And when I see the light
I know I'll be all right.
Philadelphia.

Well I've been waiting, waiting here so long
But thinking nothing, nothing could go wrong, ooh now I know
She has a built in ability
To take everything she sees
And now it seems I'm falling, falling for her.

She seems to have an invisible touch yeah
She reaches in, and grabs right hold of your heart
She seems to have an invisible touch yeah
It takes control and slowly tears you apart.

Well I don't really know her, I only know her name
But she crawls under your skin, you're never quite the same, and now I know
She's got something you just can't trust
It's something mysterious
And now it seems I'm falling, falling for her.

She seems to have an invisible touch yeah
She reaches in, and grabs right hold of your heart
She seems to have an invisible touch yeah
It takes control and slowly tears you apart.

She don't like losing, to her it's still a game
And though she will mess up your life,
You'll want her just the same, and now I know
She has a built in ability
To take everything she sees
And now it seems I've fallen, fallen for her.

She seems to have an invisible touch yeah
She reaches in, and grabs right hold of your heart
She seems to have an invisible touch yeah
It takes control and slowly tears you apart.

She seems to have an invisible touch...

Your loyeliness, 

I can hear you coming up the stair

I can smell you flipping back your hair

Your care is in the air

Of this endless night

We may not get another

Putting on my boots

One after the other

 

Think of your embrace

I'll return when the war is won

You know justice must be done

 

In the darkness

They come out 

When I have the advantage

They will be surprised

If and when they try

To look me in the eye

When I broke his arm

To reach into scars

Will he be replaced

Like all of the others

 

Think of your embrace

I'll return when the war is won

You know justice must be done

 

If I ever saw

If I ever saw

I never saw the light

Until it took my sight
