IF I KNOW IF I KNOW
IF I KNOW IF I KNOW YOU

You think that everybody wants inside your skin
They wouldn't care if they knew what shape you were in
You gonna walk all over everything they own
I bet you'd laugh in the mirror if you could get back home

IF I KNOW IF I KNOW
IF I KNOW IF I KNOW
IF I KNOW YOU

There'll be hell to pay
If I know you there'll be hell to pay
If I know you there'll be hell to pay
If I know you there'll be hell

STRANGEDEATH

Give me your long black hair
Give me your cruel grey stare
Give me your bitter tongue
Give me your cold white skin

I LOVE YOUR
Strangedeath
I love your strangedeath

Give me your hollow nights
Give me killing guilt
I'll have your memories
I'll have your punishments

I LOVE YOUR
Strangedeath
I love your strangedeath
I love your Strange....

Give me your long black hair
Give me your cruel grey stare
I'll have your memories
I'll have your punishments

KING THONG

King thong's got a private party
going on in his room tonight
rainbow leather manicure
boots all done up bound and tight

but I can see you laughing rolling
like a heavy bottomed doll
put your suits away til monday
tell your girlfriend not to call
you better
you better

KING THONG ALL OVER BODY TAN
KING THONG GOLDEN TEETH
KING THONG FRIENDS IN THE GOVERNMENT
KING THONG WHAT'S UNDERNEATH ?

King thong works for queen and country
gets to wear a wig all day
got a silky thong for murder
got a hooded leather for rape
but I can see you laughing rolling
like a heavy bottomed doll
put your suits away til monday
tell your girlfriend not to call
you better
you better

KING THONG ALL OVER BODY TAN
KING THONG GOLDEN TEETH
KING THONG FRIENDS IN THE GOVERNMENT
KING THONG WHAT'S UNDERNEATH ?

JINXED

...I warned you
...I warned you

I walk beside you trying to guess your next step
There's more to your walk than i'll ever know
we run in radius circles are too big for our
own heads to handle
I'm running by myself

Oh cut my head off there's a single vulture here
it'd spinning 'round you
fixing you for dead
it waits it's tempted cruising for the love of those
ten good words that drop out of your mouth

And I
I wouldn't be surprised if all of this was a joke
I couldn't hold my head up high against the scene in this room
funny how a Venus ripped you free
pulling back the bondage
you're jinxed for me

you watch me carefully
I remember all those films you took
they're hidden now
And I don't care at all
Caught up in celluloid glittering like good jewels do
10,000 fractures
flicker back at me

Once
Once is good
good enough good for me
Hanging Saints silver eyed ache for free
Hidden sins arching 'round keep me on my toes
Dare me down with a sway
Watch me in your throws
Hold me in your throws
....hold me

I AM THE BOY FOR YOU

Cocaine and chocolate
wont keep you alive
But they might fill you up
when you feel deprived
Stella oh Stella you need
my umbrella
So Ill be your shield while
youre slaying the field

And I only wanted to
fill you up
Just to thrill you up,
Cause I notice the things
you like
And I only wanted to
give you back
All the things you lack
Youd be touched but
its innocent

Sit on this wall with me,
I have some tricks to see
Well find a voice for you
I am the boy for you

You have a dancers heart
I have a chancers art
We have a dancers chance
We do a chancers dance
I keep a chair for you
Empty and spare for you
I keep a day for you
Holy and pray for you

And I was describing the
sight of you
In Rococo blue to my friend
the protector
And he was designing a
room for you
With an urban view
He is a collector

Why wont you smile for me?
Once in a while for me
You shouldnt toy with me
I am your boy you see

EVERYONE'S WAITING

You never see the light
You keep your wonder
Lit up from within
Like disco dancing girls
who would begin
The silver screen romance
Of magazines that tell you
You are waiting

And everyones waiting for
Someone for something
For anything to make them
Fell better than before
The moments of glory
Drop into an ocean
Where everyone is waiting

Your rebel dreams were real
Youd kick the can youd wait
But football stars
and racing cars were late
Theres pleasure
and theres pain
But dont you see
The plans that you are making
Are illusions while
youre waiting


And everyones waiting for
Someone for something
For anything to make them
Fell better than before
The moments of truth
come like bolts from the blue
Where everyone is waiting

WHAT DO YOU

She flies south in the summer
To take the sun and a lover
And I wonder why
I never tried to stop her
or to ask her
What do you want from me
I dont know how you feel
I dont know what you need
What do you
What do you

Im just a winter guest here
Tho she makes me stay
this calender
Another year slips by
and I and I
Forget shes a leaving migrant
I dont know
what do you want from me
I dont know how you feel
I dont know what you need
What do you
What do you

WORLD AT YOUR FEET

Say you wanna just be happy
you say you wanna just
be happy
Set it all up be happy well
I dont know, I dont know
Give a little bit be happy
You say live a little bit
be happy
Well I can tell when
youre happy
And I dont know
all I know is theres
So much love in you
I wish you would
Make up your mind
Youve got so much
Love to give
So why  dyou have to give
yourself each time?

To the man of your dreams
that you always meet
Tho it never lasts
It keeps you sweet
All the things that you want
Do they make you complete
Can you name your price?
Is the world at your feet?

And if I had a wish
I would give it to you
And my only wish
Would be yours came true
And I call it love
Tho I know its need
Cause if I was your world
Id live at your feet
And right from the start
Youd the world at your feet
But did it ever make
you happy?

SING FOR ME

Sing for me I cannot wait
I cannot wait for you
Sing for me I cannot wait
I cannot wait for you

And nothing fills my
head tonight
Nothing could more unkind
And nothing wakes me in
the night
Nothing is a piece of mind
So sing for me I cannot wait
Cannot wait for you
Sing for me I cannot wait
I cannot wait for you

Sing sing make them love you
Its enough to sing sing
Make them turn around

And my heart beats
inside of you
Nothing left of me to find
And nothing makes you
fall in love
Nothing makes you
change you mind
So sing for me I cannot wait
I Cannot wait for you
Sing for me I cannot wait
I cannot wait for you
Sing sing make them love you
Its enough to sing sing
Make them turn around

And thinking I could
Stay with you
Lying in your arms til dawn
Nothing is to dream of you
Waking up to find you gone
Waking up to find you gone

SOMEONE

You look like a person who
lives on the road
You make me uncertain
Youre hot then youre cold
Your tinpot philosophies
hang on my wall
You say theyre your
temporary measure for all
You look like someone I
should love

You say that the reason I want
you to stay
Is that we are opposites in
every way
And ten million reasons
wont keep me afloat
If everything I love
jumped out the boat
You look like somone
I should love

You look like a person who
lives on the road
You make me uncertain youre
hot then youre cold
but taking the trouble you
count up my cares
And send them to angels with
candles and prayers
You look like someone
I should love

HOZANNA

He keeps his healing hands
where the close-up
camera pans
He keeps his love high above
a holy love
He says
My heart cries out to you
Cause sweet redemption
makes you new
Oh Hallelujah
Oh Hozanna
Hallelujah

He takes his saviour home
Inside a mobile phone
To be sold calling cold
saving souls
And he believes there is a light
Though he gets lonelier
each night
Lord it cuts right through ya
Hallelujah
Hallelujah

So he just drinks down
his despair
By the light of his bedside
angels glare
She was made in Havana
Inscribed Hozanna
Oh Hozanna


But still those broken
bodies come
Though pilgrim hearts just
leave him numb
Hes a TV messiah his ratings
got higher but he gets tired
And so his heart breaks into
two no sweet redemption
makes him new
No Hallelujah, no Hozanna
Hallelujah
Hallelujah
Hallelujah

IF I LOVED YOU

If I loved you
Would you like that
Would you have me
on my front or on my back
Would you like that
If I trust you would it matter
Would you care more
If I showed you what I hide
Showed you inside

Please dont ask me
Cause its not you
The careless things I say or do
that cause distress
But this is someone
elses mess

Can I kiss you
Can I try to make you laugh
Can I have you
on my floor or in my bath
I used to like that
I want to like that
I want to know just what to do
I want to hold you, like I used
I used to do

Please dont ask me
Cause its not you
The careless things I say or do
that cause distress
But this is someone
elses mess

If I loved you
Would you like that
Would you have me
on my front or on my back ?
I used to like that

OUTSIDE

My love have you seen her?
My love will you keep her
These things you said
I know you remember
Those things you said
I know you remember

Give love

SAY WHAT YOU MEAN

Do you ever think about me
when Im gone?
Do you take me home
and do we sleep together
Search the middle distance
for a remedy
To stop the memories that
make us live forever

More and more
I cherish what it seems
The things you say
and what you mean
I fill the gap inside the truth
Theres no way back unless you
Unless you

Say say say what you mean
You cracked in the scene
where we were the
soul survivors
Fortune tied to the wheel
we made a deal
But somehow I feel
you still want a lot from
Me and you are siamese were
one we cant escape to any

One and one and one and
one and one is five
Five senses why we cant
escape the other
Here and there and there and
here and everywhere
The scent the taste the touch
The sight the sounds
you make
When I see you
when it keeps me satisfied
To be near you I can feel you
Cause I live behind your eyes
We are tied
In a siamese dream though
were torn at the seam
Wont you

Say say say what you mean

IF YOU SEE THE MAN

If you see the man
tell him I heard all the things he had to say
I know all those regrets must be hard to bare
But kindness pours it's ache out on the garland sand
love just drags your insides out across a grand canyon you're inside out
if you see the man give him back
all the things he laid down at my feet
tell him it was only his heart I wanted to keep
and how can you be eloquent and wise and good
when love just leave my shell a mute an echo that i loved once I loved this one
And kindness led you by the hand around you room
Where love just drags you insides out you're inside out
And there are no words to comfort you
No words that you can use
No words to make it easier to bare

NEVER ENOUGH

Why did you tell me did you promise
it would be a beautiful day,
so Id walk out without knowing
I'd get soaked and blown away
in a tempest in a fury
and it rages thru' the night
like your temper like your fury
like the way we always fight

And it's never enough for me
and it's never enough for you
if it's never enough for one then
how's it enough for two
if it's never enough for us
what are we going to do

Why did you take me back to your room
where you said it's safe it's warm
where I'd trust you without knowing
this was only the eye of the storm
and the tempest and the fury
they're still raging on outside
were like prisoners without conscience
who will never see the light

And it's never enough for me
and it's never enough for you
if it's never enough for one then
how's it enough for two
if it's never enough for us
what are we going to do
and it's never enough for me for me

LOVE

Speak I will hear you
Ive got confidence
I will hear you
if you speak Ill be listening
Ive got confidence
Ive got confidence in

Love,want a little bit...
love

poor is the rich man
with his arms so full
he's got no free hands
when his eyes were fixed
on that distant sun
missed the moon and the stars
in the road he was on and

and love,want a little bit
love......yeah love

how many times
did you hold in your hand
the key to another promised land
just to find the prize
that you wanted so bad
was the very thing that
would make you sad not

love,want a little bit
.....love

give me your hey days,
and your play days
all your sundays
i will take your part
when you're tired and weak
i will hold on to you
when you cannot speak

how many times
did you hold in your hand
the key to another promised land
just to find the prize
that you wanted so bad
that you wanted so bad
 
so badly
love,want a little bit
love,want a little bit
love,want a little bit
...ooh...ooh...ooh...

TO LOVE YOU

I had no strength to walk away
a deeper fate would have me stay
i know it now
i know it now
and if my weakness is my wound
i feel it now
i feel it now
but if you were a sword
would i still let myself
fall on to you?
and

you don't know what it's like to love you
you don't know what it's like to love you

But in your arms I found my home
I know it now
I know it now
and in your eyes my mirrored soul
I cannot hide
where could I go
and I know you still count the cost
to fall so far
to fall so fast
but to fall from grace into love
innocence is better lost and

you don't know what it's like to love you
you don't know what it's like to love you

you don't know
how could you know?
how could you possibly know...

I know it now
I know it now

you don't know what it's like to love you
you don't know what it's like to love you........

BYE AND BYE

You look so much like an angel
you look so much like an angel
I'll never understand
all the things that bring you joy
you take then you destroy
just because you can

bye and bye
bye and bye
bye and bye
all things go bye

And you sit so close to the devil
you sit so close to the devil
but your arms reach out for God
and though knowledge entertains you
oh yeah knowledge entertains you
it's mystery you applaude

bye and bye
bye and bye
bye and bye
all things go bye

and you are like a surfer
yeah you're just like a surfer
you are like a surfer
soaked beyond your skin
and you say you know water
but you,you don't know water
cause if you knew the water
you'd let yourself
dive in

bye and bye
all things go bye
bye and bye
bye and bye
bye and bye
all things go bye

BLOOD HORIZON

I have seen a blood horizon
the northern lights
swept down into the sea
and I knew in that perfect stillness
for a moment what it feels like to be free
well it seems there's just
no more charm in sunsets
baby now you are
no longer here with me

but I will run
I will run
til my feet will not carry me
I'd sleep
I would sleep
til the end of time
if it meant
i would wake with no lingering
empty trace
well it seems it may take a lifetime
to forget that I ever saw your face

Well I know that
the world is full of grieving
and I feel ashamed
by the things that make me cry
but to say you've got nothing left to believe in
that's like letting all
all the hope slip from your eyes
well I guess I just didn't know how to love you
baby at least my arms reached out to try

but I will run
I will run
til my feet will not carry me
I'd sleep
I would sleep til the end of time
if it meant I would wake
with no lingering
empty trace
I will run
I will run
til my feet will not carry me
I'd sleep
I will sleep
til the end of time
if it meant
I would wake with no lingering
empty trace

man it seems
it may take a lifetime
to forget that I ever saw you face

CALLING

I am calling because you know
sometimes we all need someone to talk to
someone who loves you
and its our season so once again
the city seems wrapped in the arms of winter
memories of you everywhere
 
But every time I think of you
I lose myself in thoughts of you
in conversations never had
things I wish, wish Id said
and everytime I speak your name
it only brings you here again
and even if I dream of you
I am calling out to you
 
Can you hear me I am calling, calling
I am trying to get it thru to you
foolish things the foolish do
can you hear me I am calling, calling
Ive been trying to make you understand
Sometimes love is easy
 
And I am happy
And tho youre far away
Somehow you stay always inside me
And if you were beside me
Then I could tell you but its absurd
I am lost for words I stumble then I am silent
No wonder I make no sense
 
Can you hear me I am calling, calling
I am trying to get it thru to you
Foolish things the foolish do
Can you hear me I am calling, calling
Im trying to make you understand
Sometimes love is easy
And I am calling I am calling
 
But everytime I think of you
Baby its evertime I think of you
Everytime I think of you
Baby its evertime I think of you
 
Can you hear me I am calling, calling
Can you hear me can you hear me
Can you hear me I am calling, calling
I am trying to get it thru to you
Foolish things the foolish do
Can you hear me I am calling, calling
Im trying to make you understand
Sometimes love is easy
And I am calling I am calling I am calling

GIRLFRIEND
 
And if you think you love me
Then maybe you do
And if youll wait forever
Thats up to you
But dont say that we should wait and see
You just dont mean that much to me
 
Cause Im not your girlfriend for a start
Dont make me go and break your heart
Im not your girlfriend
Im not your girlfriend
For a start
 
and if you think you need me
Then maybe you do
And if you dream about me
Its still not true
 
But dont say that we should wait and see
You just dont mean that much to me
 
Cause Im not your girlfriend for a start
Dont make me go and break your heart
Im not your girlfriend
Im not your girlfriend
for a start
 
No dont say that you will wait for me
You see Im not your girlfriend for a start
Dont make me go and break your heart
Im not your girlfriend
Im not your
Im not your girlfriend for a start
Dont make me go and break your heart
Im not your girlfriend
Im not your girlfriend
For a start

TUMBLING INTO BLUE
 
I want to take you to the sea
And show you memories from the deep
A thousand wishes in those waves
Put there by people who stand and stare
 
But every oceans filled with song
From drowning hearts that got it wrong
And does the siren sing to you
Or is she just tumbling into blue
 
A broken bottle and a stone
Makes fools of those who are alone
I watch the sky break down in tears
I feel baptised
I feel relieved
 
But now the ocean breaks my fall
Cant help but wonder at it all
I cast my love out there to you
I watch it tumbling in the blue
 
But every oceans filled with song
From drowning hearts that got it wrong
And does the siren sing to you
Or is she just tumbling into blue
I watch it tumble
Tumbling into blue
I watch it tumble
Tumbling into blue

LUCKY
 
I lit up a church for you
with candles for happiness
cause everybodys gotta find some
sometimes dont they say
you fell in love today
and you look like a disciple
cause she has said that
she will let you marry her so
 
all power to you
if youre happy in your eyes
are you lucky
or just good at it
 
are you are you are you lucky
 
So why live by a stream so wild
that nothing could ever cross it
but phantoms and furies
and all the selfish things I do try
try not to let them win
but they rush round to the back
and laugh and say
you didnt really think wed
let you keep him did you, no
 
all power to you
if youre happy in your eyes
are you lucky or just good at it
all power to you
I was happy in my eyes
I was lucky
To be lucky
To be good at it
 
are you are you are you lucky
