Baby Blue

Here we go
With another happy sad song
Sing along
And together we’ll get it wrong
Ooh
I love my baby blue
Ooh
My baby blue turned
2, 3, 4, 5…
My grandad
Talks about his baby
His baby
Is my baby’s grandaddy
Ooh
I love my baby blue
Ooh
My baby blue turned
2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8
When we’re old
You won’t
Let me warm up your hands
With a kiss
And a blow
I shove them in my coat
I hope
You know
We’ll always know
What we won’t say
Or always show
I’m glad
To be
A coincidental gathering
Of carbon particles
Brought together
You and me
Ooh
I love my baby blue
Ooh my baby turned two
Ooh
Ooh

Sheena's Locket
03:02

Sheena has a silver plated locket
Around her mind and she wants me to unlock it
But she subscribed to the tale of Icarus’ wings and cried
Daedalus didn’t say do not fly
He just said you’ll need to built better wings
Stronger arms, stronger mind
Unlock it and you’ll find…
Ooh you can’t unlock her
She’s a punk-rocker
She’s a POW
She’s not in love with you
I’ve got a jimmy bar and I will crack it open
And I will capture all the wicked thoughts inside
With my foot on the throat
Of the runaways that try to
Hide
Ooh You can’t unlock her
She’s a punk-rocker
She’s a POW
She’s not in love with you
Ooh You can’t unlock her
She’s a punk-rocker
She’s a POW
She’s not in love with you
Sheena has a silver plated locket
Around her mind and she wants me to unlock it
Sheena has a silver plated locket
Around her mind and she wants me to unlock it

This Bin

This bin
This bin I’m living in
We either sink or swim
Took too many on the chin
Rigor Mortis Settles in
I start to slowly drown
Against the amber, black and brown
I try
I’m slipping and I slide
My fingers scratch the sides
But the weight within my mind
Meant that I became sublimed
To vapor and I raised
Like dirty, smelly Christ
And now I float
Like a hydrogen filled boat
In post-apocalyptic skies
Allons allons-y go go
Allons allons-y go go
Ça me brise le coeur coeur
It’s cold
It’s cold up at the top
I pull a needle out and pop
I quickly start to drop
Back within the rot
I remembered I forgot
Now it’s too far gone to stop
I settle in
The flower bed within
This smelly rotten bin
Allons allons-y go go
Allons allons-y go go
Ça me brise le coeur coeur
Allons allons-y go go
Allons allons-y go go
Allons allons-y go go
Ça me brise le coeur coeur
LA POUBELLE -la-la-la bas
Tu peux croire
Que tu veux voire
Tous les fois
N’importe quoi
Ça na-na-na-na va pas
Tu peux croire
Que tu veux voire
Tous les fois
N’importe quoi
LA POUBELLE-la-la-la bas
Tu peux croire
Que tu veux voire
Tous les fois
N’importe quoi
Ca na-na-na-na va pas
Tu peux croire
Que tu veux voire
Tous les fois
N’importe quoi
Allons allons-y go go
Allons allons-y go go
Allons allons-y go go
Allons allons-y go go
Ça me brise le coeur coeur
Ça me brise le coeur coeur
Ça me brise le coeur coeur
Ça me brise le coeur coeur

Merry-Go-Round

Who Pedals the Carousella?
The powers of the fortune teller
Misfortune comes back around
Up and down on our merry-go-round
Sweat from the workers brow
And tears from the sacred cow
History comes back around
Can i jump from this merry go round
We ride till we die to the after life
We all fell
To the burning
On this carousel
The passengers they look insane
Chewing on candy floss in the rain
Who gave the megaphone to the clown
Wreaking havoc on this merry-go-round
We ride
Till we die
To the afterlife
We all fell
To the burning hell
On this carousel
We ride
Till we die
To the afterlife
We all fell
To the burning hell
On this carousel
We ride
Till we die
We ride
Till we die
We ride
Till we die
We ride
Till we die

I'm Not There
03:15
|

There must
There must be a time
A time when
We must say good-bye
You will
You will close your eyes
All of a sudden
I’m not there
I’m not there
I’m not there
I’m not there
You’re so
You’re so busy now
So busy that
I faded out
Eternal sunshine
Springs to mind
And all you’ll find
Is I’m not there
I’m not there
I’m not there
I’m not there
(Take a little look back)
You look back but
(Take a little look back bone)
There’s your back bone
(Take a little look back)
It’s been abandoned
(Take a little look back bone)
On the floor
Do do do do you wanna do
Something like what we used to do?
A game of pool
Or play the fools
You’ll take a cue
And I’m not there
I’m not there
I’m not there
I’m not there
I’m not there
I’m not
I’m not
I’m not
I’m not
(Take a little)
You look back but
(Take a little look)
There’s your back bone
(Take a little look back)
It’s been abandoned
(Take a little look back bone)
On the floor
(Take a little)
You look back but
(Take a little look)
There’s your back bone
(Take a little look back)
It’s been abandoned
(Take a little look back bone)
On the floor

I met you in the old folks home
White lilies by the telephone
A bus drove by and it blew your hair
The best I could do was to
Just be there
Not kiss you
Or hug you
Argue with
Or love you
Or rope up the chasm
With woeful sarcasm?
Deep breath in a moment
That won't happen again
The curtains dancing
By the window pane
Ah-woo ah-woo
Just me and you
Ah-woo ah-woo
Just me and you
We don’t talk about the past
Cause we knew this wouldn’t last
Our glossy eyes said it all as
I poured the boiling water
Into the tea cup
I asked if she was comfortable
She said she’d had enough
So I neatened up the curtains
Ah-woo ah-woo
Just me and you
Ah-woo ah-woo
Just me and you
Ah-woo ah-woo
Just me and you
Ah-woo ah-woo
Just me and you
I Don’t belong, don’t belong, I feel wrong
Don’t feel right and my fight has far long gone
(Don’t belong to this world anymore)
I Don’t belong, don’t belong, I feel wrong
Don’t feel right and my fight has far long gone
(Don’t belong to this world anymore)
So close the door, and pull down the window
Cause I don’t want to breathe the fresh air anymore
Please close the curtains
(Don’t belong to this world anymore)
Please close the curtains
(Don’t belong to this world anymore)
Please close the curtains
(Don’t belong to this world anymore)
Please
Ah-woo ah-woo
Just me and you
Ah-woo ah-woo
Just me and you
Ah-woo ah-woo
Just me and you
Ah-woo ah-woo
Just me and you

Spinning Jenny Forever

Those who are seen
To be dancing
Were thought to be insane
By those who couldn’t hear the music
Na na na na na na music
There was a girl
I never knew her
She never knew me
But I could hear her feet
Tapping to the music
The familiar music
Na na na na na na na na na na music
I see your hair
It’s so tight and bound
Spinning around and around
and around
and around
and around
and around
The world starts spinning when there’s music
Spinning on the needle and we
Na na na na na na na na na na lose it
Na na na na na na na na na na lose it
La la la la la la la la to the music
La la la la la la la la to the music
Woo spinning jenny forever
Woo it's in your eyes spinning jenny forever
Woo it's no surprise spinning jenny forever
Woo

Mother of Jeanne
03:15

Je te présente la femme enchantée
Je te présente la sorcière des mots brisée
Une coupe frappant, les mains glacées
Elle a fait du mal, elle est désolée
Une fleure bleu au bord de l’eau
Sous le Voie lactée, le chœur de l’aube
Elle se réveille, se lève tôt
Elle est désolée, ce n’est pas dangereux
Ce n’étais pas censé être ainsi
Ce n’étais pas censé être ainsi
Jeanne est dans la lune, au bord de l’eau
Avec une goût magique, une coupe de foudre
Petit à petit, l’oiseau fait son nid
Elle pète un plomb, elle frappe et puis…
Ce n’étais pas censé être ainsi
Ce n’étais pas censé être ainsi
Ce n’étais pas censé être ainsi
Ce n’étais pas censé être ainsi
Un long baiser
Tu veux danser?
Es tu tombé (amoureux)?

Oh oh you really won’t dance
Oh oh you really won’t dance
But you don’t really want me to dance with somebody
Else
Either
Oh no
Were you born under saturn’s gloom?
(Leave me alone, leave me, please do)
Tomb stone face like a storm cloud plume
(Move my feet is what I want to do)
This isn’t your thing why did you come?
(Tonight all I want to do is move)
You ruin my dance looking so glum
Oh no it’s not your pay day
It was mine but you don’t want me to pay
Now you’re sat there grumbling about the money
No!
I want!
To dance!
Tonight!
Were you born under Saturn's gloom?
(Leave me alone, leave me, please do)
Tomb stone face like a storm cloud plume
(Move my feet is what I want to do)
On true love you want to hear the truth?
(Tonight all I want to do is move)
I love dancing more than I like you
(I love dancing more than I like you)
It’s not that I don’t like dancing
But that Romeo prancing
And that creepy romancing makes me
Want to rip off my clothes
From my head to my toes
And pogo to punk music
It’s not that I don’t like you
Or the things that you do
But we step on each other’s feet
Do whatever you fancy
We will keep on dancing
Dancing to different beats

Reaction Time
02:46

Busy life
Busy mind
Uninvited
Took me by surprise
Chance encounter
Stopped just to say
It’s unrequited
Too little too late
You tested my reaction time
Did I pass the test?
Devil’s dancing
She took me by the hand
No rhyme or reason
Just an evil plan
Steady hand
And not too many words
Going backwards
As we twist and twirl
Dark night
Subdued
Dancing with her
Not you
Forgotten steps
Cute song
Chance encounter
Gone wrong
You tested my reaction time
Did I pass the test?
I missed the bus and I hate the train
Missed the bus it was my getaway
Wished away
Wished away
Turned the devil grey
You tested my reaction time
Did I pass the test?
I wished away till I got to you
I wished away turned the devil blue
I wished away
Wish you wished away for me too

Price I Pay

You kick through
The door into
My pretty sturdy world
Ignore the doorbell
Without warning
It’s black tactics unfurled
He crawled in
Clawed the curtains
Of uncertainty wide open
With his potion
Changed the clockwork
For a faster moving motion
There is a price to pay
To the ferryman of shadow play
Price to pay
Put the penny in his palm on Judgement day
You kick through
The door into
My pretty sturdy world
Ignore the doorbell
Without warning
It’s black tactics unfurled
He crawled in
Clawed the curtains
Of uncertainty wide open
With his potion
Changed the clockwork
For a faster moving motion
There is a price to pay
To the ferryman of shadow play
Price to pay
Put the penny in his palm on Judgement day
I ignored it
Because accepting it seemed a little boringt
If you ignore it
It will wake up with you every single morning
I contemplate it
One day coming to takes it’s payment
But it’s ok man
I’ll get it to you
As soon as I get paid man
There is a price to pay
To the ferryman of shadow play
Price to pay
Put the penny in his palm on Judgement day
Now I know what it means
To be beside oneself
Now I know what it means
To be beside oneself
I can see me
from the corner
Riesco vedermi
Dell’angolo
Wish I wish upon
Wish I wish upon
Wish upon myself
Wish I wish upon
Wish I wish upon
Wish upon myself
Ho provato
Provato
Provato
Provato
Dire
Che sto bene
Wish I wish upon
Wish I wish upon
Wish upon myself
Wish I wish upon
Wish I wish upon
Wish upon myself
