Kill it! Kill it!
02:18
|

Things that were said, turned my mood black
thoughts that I had, keep coming back
I don't understand my vitriol
I can't look at the mirror, that you hold
kill it kill it stamp it down
before it grows and consumes all around
kill it kill it stamp it down
before my thoughts become unbound
the chaos that rests upon the bed
I look to the ceiling; hold my aching head
I want to get up and embrace my child
the effort that takes me, is driving me wild
developed in the red room
no colour in the picture (stu/derek)

Miss Asphyxia
02:53
|
|||
I knew a lady we called miss asphyxia
She was into all sorts of erotica
Snared me when I was worldly young
the things she did to make me come
oh the allure of miss asphyxia
yeah the things she did
yeah the things she slid
recently I saw her at the co-operative
nothing she said was remotely suggestive
as she weighs my pork and my ham
she looks down to her withered hands
oh the horror on the face of miss asphyxia
chorus
Yeah I hate to put it to ya
you end up under life

It's Who You Know
02:56
|
|||
Did I disappoint you
did I disappoint myself as well?
its time to stand up straight
opportunities are late
forget about what you know
it's all about who you know
this nation is nepotistic
I prefer to be sarcastic
and smile when I know
its doesn't matter if I vote
forgot about what they know
its all about who they know
from the top all the way down
big ideas from suited clowns
but its still worth getting educated
you can unravel what they just stated
Forget about what you know
I hope you know someone close
Forget about what you know
I hope you know someone close

I Hear the City
03:53
|
|||
Got my invitation; got it on my phone
the lady is downstairs, I'm naked on my own
I spray the lynx, it was two for one
I look at my face, how'd I get so old?
FGAm
Honey I'll be back by midnight
Honey I'll be back by one
I button the top button, is that too straight laced
Its hard to fasten, I guess I've saved face
I grab my phone, something stirs inside
I have a hunch, tonight is gonna be the night
oooo
I open the taxi door I hear the city
I open he taxi door I hate the city!
I dance like a demon I feel fit as ***
I see a woman, i'm gonna try my luck
she turns her head, I saw what's up
she says honey, you're out of touch
I hear the city!
Then I get chased by the cops I got not idea how to shake them off
then I get lifted by the cops I got no idea how to fob them off
I hear the city

Quoted not Voted
02:37
|
|||
I guess i'm wrong about everything
I guess i'm wrong about the state we're in
id say to my son you should use your vote
but when I cross that box it makes me choke
I guess i'm wrong about the house of lords
I guess I'm wrong about politics
just answer, just answer the question
and what's so bad about being honest with a person
lesson to learn
quoted not voted
quoted not voted.

Almost Beautiful
03:08
|
|||
Hair across your face, a tare between your eyes
its almost beautiful
I see you breathing fast, I see you clench your fists
its almost wonderful
Its almost beautiful
Its almost time to hurt
A stillness in our room, a distance in our lives
Its almost beautiful
you do that stupid laugh, I haven't heard it in a while
Its almost credible
Its almost beautiful
Its almost truthful
Its almost time to hurt
You say you smell her scent, you look through my lies
That were almost truthful
I go to embrace, I miss read your signs
Its almost comical

Once More With Feeling
02:19
|
|||
his failures with sex
her failures with men
a chance meeting makes; for an interesting evening
lies about his work
lies about her past
he buys her drinks
like a true gentlemen
a sudden pain that beats in her heart
her daddy left and never came back
a sudden thought that causes him shame
what if his doubts catch him out again?
once more with feeling
he starts to laugh
as she cracks a joke
for a brief moment; their defence drops
she feels the guilt
he feels he's weak
he buys her drinks; she says that they're leaving
she takes him to down to her house in her scheme
this is a place that he's never been
her darkened bed is a static scene
she feels the dirt and he feels the shame
the both want a different love
the both need a different love

Medicine
03:40
|
|||
She shuffled along to her church
On a busy and aggressive Sunday morning
The bells tolled right on eleven
she looked up to a plane scar the blue sky
the service had a moments silence
for simon who died in the half marathon
he had a knack of predicting market trends
but he didn't see this coming
So he just kept on running
music----------
Faith heals no one
you've got to trust your instincts as medicine

Little Thoughts Lost
02:57
|
|||
I'm from a small town
there is no scene or celebrity
so I moved out to the city
the lights they keep me company
something inside of me that said
its time to run don't stop or you're dead
cos if you stand still, yeah they'll knock you down
they'll knock you down
ooo ooo ooo
little thoughts lost
I'm from a small town
no industry or skills set
so I went out to the city
it was so fast, it made me dizzy
these girls they came on to me
they did something dirty; then they asked for money
so I queued for food
and people talk of television
little thoughts lost
this is not my time; this is not my place

Curtain Hits The Cast
03:23
|
|||
stage lights faces painted white
the actor looks out into the dark
they are seated they except to laugh
he's tired but he's well rehearsed
everyone's surprised as the curtain hits the cast
he collapses and lands upon his back
the audience gasps then they start to clap
he remembers when he played the Albert hall
he don't mind Blackpool he don't mind at all
everyone surprised as the curtain hits the cast
oh the actor he looks up lights
and he wonders if he's done all right
everyone's surprised as the curtain hits the cast
