ENGLISH SUMMER RAIN

Always stays the same
Nothing ever changes
English summer rain
Seems 2 last 4 ages
Always stays the same
Nothing ever changes
English summer rain
Seems 2 last 4 ages
I'm in the basement
You're in the sky
I'm in the basement baby
Drop on by
I'm in the basement
You're in the sky
I'm in the basement baby
Drop on by
Always stays the same
Nothing ever changes
English summer rain
Seems 2 last 4 ages
Always stays the same
Nothing ever changes
English summer rain
Seems 2 last 4 ages
I'm in the basement
You're in the sky
I'm in the basement baby
Drop on by
I'm in the basement
You're in the sky
I'm in the basement baby
Drop on by
Hold your breath and count to ten
And fall apart and start again
Hold your breath and count to ten
Start again start again
Hold your breath and count to ten
Then fall apart and start again
Start again (x13)
Always stays the same
Nothing ever changes
English summer rain
Seems 2 last 4 ages
Always stays the same
Nothing ever changes
English summer rain
Seems 2 last 4 ages
Hold your breath and count to ten
Then fall apart and start again
Hold your breath and count to ten
Start again start again
Hold your breath and count to ten
And fall apart and start again
Hold your breath and count to ten
Start again start again
Start again (x16)

THIS PICTURE

I hold an image of the ashtray girl
Of cigarette burns on my chest
I wrote a poem that described her world
And put our friendship to the test
And late at night whilst on all fours
She used to watch me kiss the floor
What's wrong with this picture?
What's wrong with this picture?
Farewell the ashtray girl
Forbidden snowflake
Beware this troubled world
And watch out for earthquakes
Goodbye to open sores
To broken semaphore
You know we miss her
We miss her picture
Sometimes it's faded
( We) disentigrate it
For fear of growing old
Some times it's faded
(We) assassinate it
For fear of growing old
Farewell the ashtray girl
Angelic fruitcake
Beware this troubled world
Control your intake
Goodbye to open sores
Goodbye and furthermore
You know we miss her
We fuckin miss her picture
Sometimes it's faded
( We) disentigrate it
For fear of growing old
Some times it's faded
(We) assassinate it
For fear of growing old
Hang on
Though we try
It's gone

Hang on
Though we try
It's gone

Sometimes it's faded
( We) disentigrate it
For fear of growin old
Some times it's faded
(We) assassinate it
For fear of growing old
I can't stop growin old (x5)

SLEEPING WITH GHOSTS

The sea's evaporating
Though it comes as no suprise
These clouds we're seeing
They're explosions in the sky
It seems it's written
But we can't read between the line
Hush, It's ok
Dry your eye

Dry your eye
Soulmate dry your eye
Dry your eye
Soulmate dry your eye
Cause soulmates never die

This one world vision
Turns us into compromise
What good's religion
When it's each other we despise
Damn the government
Damn their killing
Damn their lies
Hush, It's ok
Dry your eyes

Dry your eyes
Soulmate dry your eyes
Dry your eyes
Soulmate dry your eyes
Cause soulmates never die
Soulmates never die
Never die
Soulmates never die
Never die
Soulmates never die (x4)

THE BITTER END

Since we're feeling so anesthetised
In our comfort zone
Reminds me of the second time
That I followed you home
We're running out of alibis
On the second of May
Reminds me of the summer time
On this winters day

See you at the bitter end x2

Every step we take that's synchronised
Every broken bone
Reminds me of the second time
That I followed you home
You shower me with lullabies
As you're walking away
Reminds me that it's killing time
On this fateful day

See you at the bitter end x4
(From the time we intercepted)
(Feels more like suicide)
See you at the bitter end x3

SOMETHING ROTTEN (aucune certitude des paroles)

Get real
It seems
When you're here I miss you something rotten
The stinks
Are here
It's guaranteed all's forgotten
Tell me x2
It's clear
Perhaps you have forgotten
Don't fear x2
You're clean
All is forgotten
So you stand x3
I miss you something rotten
So you stand x2
This crown
Is broken rotten
Tell me x2
No it's not
It's all forgotten
Tell me x2
So you stand
I miss you something rotten
Tell me x2
It stinks
It stinks it's something rotten
Don't fear x2
You're clean
All is forgotten
There is something rotten in here (x8 )

PLASTICINE

Beauty lies inside the eye
Of another youthful dream
That doesn't sell its soul to self-esteem
That's not plasticine

Beauty lies inside desire
And every wayward heart redeemed
That doesn't sell its soul to self-esteem
That's not plasticine

Don't forget to be the way you are x4

The only thing you can rely on
Is that you can't rely on anything
Don't go and sell your soul to self-esteem
Don't be plasticine

Don't forget to be the way you are x4

Don't forget to be the way you are x4

Way you are x4

SPECIAL NEEDS

Remember me when you're the one who's silver screened
Remember me when you're the one you'd always dreamed
Remember me whenever noses start to bleed
Remember me special needs

Just nineteen a sucker's dream
I guess I thought you had the flavor
Just nineteen a dream obscene
Six months off for bad behavior

Remember me when you clench your movie deal
And think of me stuck in my chair that has four wheels
Remember me through flash photography and screams
Remember me special dreams

Just nineteen a sucker's dream
I guess I thought you had the flavor
Just nineteen a dream obscene
Six months off for bad behavior
Just nineteen a sucker's dream
I guess I thought you had the flaviour
Just nineteen a dream obscene
Six months off for bad behaviour

Remember me x2

Just nineteen a sucker's dream
I guess I thought you had the flavour
Just nineteen a dream obscene
Six months off for bad behaviour
Just nineteen a sucker's dream
I guess I thought you had the flavour
Just nineteen a dream it seemed
Six months off for bad behaviour

Remember me x2

I'LL BE YOURS

I'll be your water
Bathing you clean
With liquid peace
I'll be your ether
You'll breathe me in
It won't release
Well I've seen you suffer
I've seen you cry
The whole night through
I'll be your water
Bathing you clean
Your liquid blue

(I'll be your father
I'll be your mother
I'll be your lover
I'll be yours ) x2

I'll be your liquor
Bathing your soul
In juice that's pure
I'll be your anchor
You'll never leave
These shores that cure
Well I've seen you suffer
I've seen you cry
For days and days
So I'll be your liquior
Demons will drown
And float away

(I'll be your father
I'll be your mother
I'll be your lover
I'll be yours ) x4
Yours (x8 )

SECOND SIGHT

Walk away to save your face
You never were a genius
Walk away to save your face
You let it come between us
Walk away to save your face
You never were a genius
Walk away to save your face
You never were you never were

Yes it's just the second night
That I would break backside for you
Yes I know you're the jealous type
Cause I'm cursed with second sight so

Walk away to save your face
You never were an actor
Walk away to save your face
Here comes the morning after
Walk away to save your face
You never were an actor
Walk away to save your face
You never were you never were

Yes it's just the second night
That I would break backside for you
Yes I know you're the jealous type
Cause I'm cursed with second sight so x3

Third verse Same as first

Walk away to save your face
You never were a genius
Walk away to save your face
You let it come between us
Walk away to save your face
You never were a genius
Walk away to save your face
You never were you never were

Yes it's just the second night
That I would break backside for you
Yes I know you're the jealous type
Cause I'm cursed with second sight so

Walk away x5
You never were Walk away x3
You never

PROTECT ME FROM WHAT I WANT

It's the disease of the age
It's the disease that we crave
Alone at the end of the rave
We catch the last bus home
Corporate America wakes
Coffee republic and cakes
We open the latch on the gate
Of the hole that we call our home

Protect me from what I want x3
Protect me protect me

Maybe we're victims to fate
Remember when we'd celebrate
We'd drink and get high until late
And now we're all alone
Wedding bells ain't gonna chime
With both of us guilty of crime
And both of us sentenced to time
And now we're all alone

Protect me from what I want x3
Protect me protect me
Protect me from what I want x3
Protect me protect me
Protect me from what I wantx3
Protect me protect me
Protect me from what I want x3
Protect me protect me
Protect me from what I want x3
Protect me protect me

CENTREFOLDS

Come on Balthazar
I refuse to let you die
Come on fallen star
I refuse to let you die
Cause it's wrong
And I've been waiting far too long
And it's wrong
I've been waiting far too long
For you to be
Be
Be
Be
Be mine
For you to be mine
Be mine
For you to be mine
And it's wrong
I've been waiting far too long
It's wrong
I've been waiting far too long
For you to be
Be
Be
Be
All the centrefolds
That you can't afford
Have long since waved their last goodbyes
All the centrefolds
That you can't afford
You've long since faded from their eyes
So be
Be mine
So be
Be mine
