Roll Up And Shine (top)

Why don`t you take a look in my mouth
Why don`t you take a look at yourself
So why don`t you take a look around
So why don`t we take a look inside

Roll out the shock parade
Free falling from a stage
Performance and cocktails
Roll up and shine

I hang the devil from a circus wire
Face up seats four in love spittin fire
So why don`t you take a look around
So why don`t we take a look inside

Roll out the shock parade
Free falling from a stage
Performance and cocktails
Roll up and shine

So why don`t you take a look around
So why don`t we take a look inside

Roll out the shock parade
Free falling from a stage
Performance and cocktails
Roll up and shine

Bring out the shock parade
Freaks falling from a stage
Performance and cocktails
Roll up and shine

The Bartender And The Thief (top)

When you think about it
He`s watching every word you say hey dazed
And when he`s sussed you out
He calls her up and out she comes and hustles us
Long digging gone fishing love drinkin`

The bartender and the thief are lovers
Steal what they need like sisters and brothers
Met in a church, a night to remember
Robbin` the graves of bodies dismembered

He watched the lesbian talk
She kissed and groped but mostly talked in lust crushed
He couldn`t make the call
His eyes were gripped on licking tongues enough`s enough failed for once
Long digging gone fishing love drinkin`

The bartender and the thief are lovers
Steal what they need like sisters and brothers
Met in a church, a night to remember
Robbin` the graves of bodies dismembered

Long digging gone fishing love drinkin`

The bartender and the thief are lovers
Steal what they need like sisters and brothers
Met in a church, a night to remember
Robbin` the graves of bodies dismembered

Saved what they stole to meet at the altar
Place where they first set eyes on each other
Flew to the sun to start life all over
Set up a bar and robbed all the locals

Hurry Up And Wait (top)

We wait to wake to wait to get a ride in the rain
Buy a ticket they can check we can claim
So we don`t spend what`s our own
For a seat a place to stop a green light a red cross
They run around naked doing old things
Like the ones before
Wait for a break so you can take a little something
That`ll make your next break
Come along a little quicker than the one before
Wait for an answer spy a sweet dancer
As she walks from the door of the hall
Wish you waited for your wedding vows

So hurry up and wait
But what`s worth waiting for?
So hurry up and wait
But what`s worth waiting for?

We wait to get warm the car starts from cold stall
To make a first move
Magazines made the rules to make us lose
Wait for your dream man the house you could both plan
The car in the sales ad the wet dream
With the man you wish that you had

So hurry up and wait
But what`s worth waiting for?
So hurry up and wait
But what`s worth waiting for?

Awatched pot never boils sugars seconds to dissolve
See your appetite lost foods relevance is
Lost in mind

So hurry up and wait
But what`s worth waiting for?
So hurry up and wait
But what`s worth waiting for?
But what`s worth waiting for?
But what`s worth waiting for?
But what`s worth waiting for?
But what`s worth waiting for?

So join the queue me and you wait in line
It takes our time to be satisfied

Pick A Part That's New (top)

I`ve never been here before
Didn`t know where to go
Never met you before
I`ve never been to your home
That smells not unknown
Foot steps made of stone
Walking feels familiar

You can do all the things that you like to do
All around underground pick a part that`s new
You can do all the things that you like to do
All around upside down pick a part that`s new

People drinking on their own
Push buttons on the phone
Was I here once before
Is that my voice on the phone
That last drink on my own
Did I ever leave at all
Confusions familiar

You can do all the things that you like to do
All around underground pick a part that`s new
You can do all the things that you like to do
All around upside down pick a part that`s new

You can do all the things that you like to do
All around underground pick a part that`s new
You can do all the things that you like to do
All around upside down pick a part that`s new
What`s new to you?
What`s new to you?
What`s new to you?

Just Looking (top)

There`s things I want
There`s things I think I want
There`s things I`ve had
There`s I wanna have
Do I want the dreams
The ones we`re forced to see
Do I want the perfect wife
The word perfect ain`t quite right
Shopping every day
Take it back the next break
They say the more you fly the more you risk your life

I`m just looking
I`m not buying
I`m just looking
Keeps me smiling

A house I seen
Another coulda been
You drenched my head
And said what I said
You said that life is what you make of it
Yet most of us just fake

I`m just looking
I`m not buying
I`m just looking
Keeps me smiling

There`s things I want
There`s things I think I want
There`s things I`ve had
There`s I wanna have
They say the more you fly
The more you risk your life

I`m just looking
I`m not buying
I`m just looking
Keeps me smiling

Half The Lies You Tell Ain't True (top)

You could lick or chew
Tongue in style tonight
Champagne drag queen suit
Pinstripe outta line
It`s time to try how
Blisters on your feet
Blisters up your spine
If I could choose from two
I`d mime to be a smile

But when you rely on a lie that`s true
And no one believes in the things you do
`Cause half of the lies you tell ain`t true
I`m gonna find out, I`m gonna find a piece of you

You could pick and lose
Diesel dreams for crime
I should win and choose
Colours undersize
A naked fake that`s
A face that fits for two
Sex brings out the spies
Hanging from your feet
Hollywood star style

But when you rely on a lie that`s true
And no one believes in the things you do
`Cause half of the lies you tell ain`t true
I`m gonna find out, I`m gonna find a piece of you

I Wouldn't Believe Your Radio (top)

Travelling through a tunnel under sea
You never know if it cracks in half
You`re never ever gonna see me
But you can have it all if you like
You can have it all if you like
And you can pay for it the rest of your
Life life

I wouldn`t believe your wireless radio
If I had myself a flying giraffe
You`d have one in a box with a window
But you can have it all if you like
You can have it all if you like
And you can pay for it the rest of your
Life life

Life in the summer`s on it`s back
You`d have to agree that that`s the crack
So take what you want I`m not comin` back

You can have it all if you like
You can have it all if you like
You can have it all if you like
You can have it all if you like
You can have it all if you like
You can have it all if you like
And you can pay for it the rest of your
Life life
Life life

T-Shirt Sun Tan (top)

He was walking round to you
One said french afternoon
So he called into a shop for two
He bought himself an ice drink
A totally tropical nice drink
Then he saw what he thought was you in a room
He thought about going over
But you were always much older
And your sex dressed breasts impressed too
He`d really like to get it together
Before the twelth of never
So he`s coming over

It`s when all the phases come around the clothes you wear
The sex and love it`s enough
For the time outta touch out of luck

He always liked them older
So that his top lip touched on her shoulder
Lionized undisguised kill for you
Like to show you hie teeshirt suntan
Like to show you his minute head stand
Then a gun spun open

It`s when all the phases come around the clothes you wear
The sex and love it`s enough
For the time outta touch out of luck
From you to me to me to you
From you to me to me to you

It`s when all the phases come around the clothes you wear
The sex and love it`s enough
For the time outta touch out of luck
It`s when all the phases come around the clothes you wear
The sex and love it`s enough
For the time outta touch out of luck

Is Yesterday, Tomorrow, Today? (top)

It`s another way to get through the day
Picking up ripped cigarette boxes hoping that one remains
Yellow lucky day suck deep and bathe
For the next ten minutes spent coughing all the pleasures craved

Write down all the things that you`d like to say
Write down all the things that you`d like to change
Write down all the places you`d like to stay
Write down anything that you want
Is yesterday tomorrow today?
Is nothin gonna change the way?

Cracked rock top wall let the ash to fall
Left alone to wait i`ve never looked at things i`ve liked only things i hate
You`re not the first today not the softest face
Was there any that you liked was there any that you didn`t fake?

Write down all the things that you`d like to be
Write down all the things that you don`t believe
Write down all the places you`d like to see
Write down anything that you want
Is yesterday tomorrow today?
Is nothin gonna change the way?

Because everything that`s you
And the things that you like to do
And all of the things that are
Come back again
Come back again
Come back again
Is yesterday tomorrow today?

A Minute Longer (top)

They`re calling out come on lets go
But I`m miles away to a yeat before
Laughs from the glass drank to the past
On the old green seat like velvet to the hand

Think I`d like to stay a minute longer
Would you like to stay a minute longer?

Last one for some sick from the rum
I played golf on the carpet with someone
Crash back to date few things I hate
But I`d rather us live in the present day

Think I`d like to stay a minute longer
Would you like to stay a minute longer?
Think I`d like to stay a minute longer
Would you like to stay a minute longer?

She Takes Her Clothes Off (top)

She`s got another fantasy
She live in flat number twenty three
Picked first prize for carnival queen
And now she takes her clothes off
Collects the covers off her magazines
She longs to be another teenage dream
The problem is she`s turning forty three
She still takes her clothes off

She got the nick name porta bubble joan
They found her dead dead as nails at home
And she said i`m gonna be another marilyn
Bleach my hair and get real thin
And everybody`s gonna wanna dance with me

She loved to have her little fantasies
She longed to be the wife of jimmy dean
But jimmys head sits in jimmys knees
She loves to take her clothes off
Police are looking round at twenty three
They found her hanging from her swollen feet
They saw her dance last in woolworth street
She loved to take her clothes off

She got the nick name porta bubble joan
They found her dead dead as nails at home
And she said i`m gonna be another marilyn
Bleach my hair and get real thin
And everybody`s gonna wanna dance with me
And everybody`s gonna wanna dance with me

Everybody wants to be the carnival queen
And everybody`s gonna wanna dance with me
Everybody wants to be the carnival king or queen
We all read the books
She takes her clothes off
One by one again

Plastic California (top)

Plastic california looks like blackpool outta date
Some love some hate
It`s all your competition it`s not my occupation true
but it`s what you do

Some love some hate
Some love some hate

I like pink architecture flip back my red strip deck chair prove
We got nothing to prove
Gin stroke amnesia problems overhearing talk of hollywood
We wish we could ya should

Some love some hate
Some love some hate

It`s all a beautiful place for nature
And all the beautiful people make it true
But you look good as you

Some love some hate
Some love some hate

Makes me feel great
I feel new d`ya feel new
Ha, ha
Well I`m pleased to meet you

I Stopped To Fill My Car Up (top)

I stopped to fill my car up
The car felt good that day
I didn`t know where I was going
But it felt good for a change
A five and a pocket full of silver
I paid the lady no change
And then it started to piss down
I started driving again

And then I looked up and looked in the mirror behind me
And then I looked up and looked in the mirror behind me

A man round forty in the back seat
Must have stepped in when I was empty
So why`s he sat there just waiting
Likely to smash my face in
He had a bag full of money
He said just drive me away
I didn`t know I was going
Yet it felt good to be strange

And still I look up and look in the mirror behind me
And still I look up and look in the mirror behind me

Curiosity is over
He stepped down from the car
He pulled a gun from his jacket
Said I was going to die
It gives me so much satisfaction
To watch you beg and cry
Well I just made up this story
To get your attention makes me smile

I never looked up or looked in the mirror behind me
I never looked up or looked in the mirror behind me
