Jacqueline

Jacqueline was seventeen
working on a desk
when Iver
Peered above a spectacle
forgot that he had wrecked a girl
Sometimes these eyes
Forget the face they peer upon
Well, you know
That face as I do
And how in the return of the gaze
She can return you the face
That you are staring from

It’s always better on holiday
So much better on holiday
That’s why we only work when
We need the money

Gregor was down again
Said come on, kick me again
Said I’m so drunk
I don’t mind if you kill me
Come on you gutless
I’m alive
I’m alive
I’m alive
and how I know it
But for chips and for freedom
I could die

It’s always better on holiday…

Tell Her Tonight

I only watched her walk, but she saw it
I only heard her talk, but she saw it
I only touched her lips, but she saw it
I only kissed her lips, but she saw it

Gonna have to tell her tonight…

She only blinked her eyes, but I saw it
She only swung her hair, but I saw it
She only shook her hips, but I saw it
She only licked her lips, but I saw it

Gonna have to tell her tonight…

Have to tell her. Tell her tonight, yeah.

I only watched her walk, but she saw it
I only heard her talk, but she saw it
I only touched her hips, but she saw it
I only kissed her lips, but she saw it

Gonna have to tell her tonight…

Take Me Out

So if you’re lonely
You know I’m here
Waiting for you
I’m just a cross-hair
Just a shot away from you
If you leave here
You leave me broken
Shattered I lie
We’re just a cross-hair
Just a shot then we can die
I know I won’t be leaving here
With You

I say don’t you know
You say don’t you know
I say take me out

I stay you don’t show
Don’t move time is slow
I say take me out

I say don’t you know
You say you don’t know
I say take me out

If I move this could die
If eyes move this could die
I want you to take me out

I know I won’t be leaving here
With you

I say don’t you know
You say you don’t know
I say take me out

If I wait this could die
If I wane this could die
I want you to take me out

If I move this could die
If eyes move this could die
Come on
Take me out
I know I won’t be leaving here
With you

The Dark of the Matinée

You take your white finger
Slide the nail under
the top and bottom buttons
of my blazer
relax the fraying wool
slacken ties and I’m
not to look at you in the shoe
but the eyes find the eyes

find me and follow me
through corridors, refectories and files
you must follow, leave
this academic factory
you will find me in the Matinee
the dark of the Matinee
it’s better in the Matinee
the dark of the Matinee is mine
yes it’s mine

I time every journey
to bump into you
accidentally I
charm you and tell you
of the boys I hate
all the girls I hate
all the words I hate
all the clothes I hate
how I’ll never be anything I hate
you smile, mention something that you like
how you’d have a happy life
if you did the things you like

find me and follow me…

So I’m on BBC2 now
telling Terry Wogan how I made it.
What I made is unclear now
but his deference is
and his laughter is
my words and smile are so easy now
yes, it’s easy now
yes, it’s easy now

find me and follow me…

Auf Achse

You see her
You can’t touch her
You hear her
You can’t hold her
You want her
You can’t have her
You want to
But she won’t let you

She’s not so special
So look what you’ve done boy

Now you wish she’d never
Come back here again

You see her
You can’t touch her
You hear her
You can’t hold her
You want her
You can’t have her
You want to
But she won’t let you

She’s not so special
So look what you’ve done Bob

Now I’m nailed above you
Gushing from my side
It’s with your sins
that you have killed me
Thinking of your sins I die
Thinking how You’d let them touch you
How you’d never realise
That I’m ripped and hang forsaken
Knowing never will I rise
Again

Cheating on You

Goodbye girl
Because I’m lonely
Goodbye girl
It isn’t over
Goodbye girl
Because it’s only love
Goodbye girl
You know you own me
Goodbye girl
Yes I’m a loser
Goodbye girl
You know it’s only love

I’m cheating on you
I’m cheating on you
I’m cheating on you
You’re cheating on me

Goodbye girl
You are the only one
Goodbye girl
Although you own me
Goodbye girl
You only owe me love
Goodbye girl
Well, if you’re lonely
Goodbye girl
Why don’t you join me?
Goodbye girl
You know it’s only love

I’m cheating on you
I’m cheating on you
I’m cheating on you
I’m cheating on me

Goodbye girl.

This Fire

Eyes
Boring a way through me
Paralyse
Controlling completely
Now
There is a fire in me
Fire that burns
Fire that burns

This fire is out of control
I’m going to burn this city
Burn this city
If this fire is out of control
Then I
I’m out of control
and I burn

Eyes
Burning a way to me
Overwhelm
Destroying so sweetly
Now
There is a fire in me
Fire that burns
Fire that burns

This fire…

Darts of Pleasure

You are the latest contender
You are the one to remember
You are the villain who sends a
Line of dark fantastic passion
I know that you will surrender
I know that you will surrender
I want this fantastic passion
Will have fantastic passion

You can feel my lips undress your eyes
undress your eyes undress your eyes
Words of love and words so leisured
Words are poisoned darts of pleasure
Die and so you die

You are the latest contender
You’re an emotion avenger
You are the devil that sells a
line of dark fantastic passion
I know that you will surrender
I know that you will surrender
I want this fantastic passion
Will have fantastic passion

You can feel my lips undress your eyes
Undress your eyes undress your eyes
Skin can feel my lips they tingle
tense anticipation
This one is an easy one
Feel the word and melt upon it
Words of love and words so leisured
Words are poisoned darts of pleasure
Die. So I die.

Ich heisse super fantastische
Ich Trinke champers mit lachsfisch

Come On Home

Although my lover lives
In a place that I can’t live
I kind of find I like a life
This lonely
It rips and pierces me
In places I can’t see
I love the rip of nerves
The rip that wakes me

So come on home

I’m where I want to be
You’re where you want to be
Come on we’re chasing
everything we’ve ever wanted
I replace you easily
Replace pathetically
I flirt with every flighty thing
that falls my way
But how I needed you
When I needed you
Let’s not forget
We are so strong
So bloody strong

So come on home

Blue light falls
Upon your perfect skin
Falls and you draw back again
Falls and this is how I fell
I cannot forget
I cannot forget
Come on home
Come on home
But don’t forget to leave

40′

As I glance once upon the foam
40’ beneath my feet
The coldest calm falls
through the molten veins
Cooling all the blood to slush
that congeals around the brain

la la la

40’ REMAIN

Salt scales upon my drying arms
Burn my back beneath the sun
But I am cold beneath the burning rays
Looking down, looking down
Down, down again

la la la

40’ REMAIN

His fags were cheap, but with a filter

Shopping for Blood

I live in the Merchant City, drive 4×4
I eat MNS, it tastes of nothing
Oh I taste of nothing
I am the New Scottish Gentry

Words So Leisured

She’s an emotion avenger
She is the villain who sends a
Line of dark fantastic passion

She knows that you will surrender
Knows that you will surrender
You want this fantastic passion
We’ll have fantastic passion

You can feel her lips undress your eyes
Why should ugly skin that never feels
Never feel your fingers tingle tense anticipation on it
This was an easy one, feel the word and melt upon it

Words of love, words so leisured
Words are poisoned darts of pleasure
Die

Yes, she’s in her black mood tonight
Watch her dye your black hair right
Love you of you, all muscles slacken
All the skin that was so tight

So ask for a reason
Ask for any reason
Ask for the one reply
For the one reply

Try for reason
But passion never lives
It dies with reason
Try for reason
Then die?
