If u were there, beware
The serpent soul pinchers
Three hundred and fifty no thank yous and nobody flinches
Go on girl go on, give us something gruesome
We require your grief, the thugs help the thieves
As they're trying to rob the words from her gob and
Take the bron of the innocents

If u were there, beware
The serpent soul pinchers
Can't u sense she was never meant
To fill column inches
And you've had enough, what you're trying to dig up
Isn't there to be dug, the thieves help the thugs
As they're trying beat the good grace of a sweetheart

Out to the point she'll comply

Why leave her on her own
If I'd have known then I wouldn't have zei it
I wouldn't have zei it if I would have known
Why leave her on her own
If I predicted tears then I wouldn't have zei it
I wouldn't have zei it if I would have known

There's a cirkel of witches, ambitiously vicious they are
Our attempts to remind them of reason won't get us that far
I don't know what it is that they want
I don't know what it is that they want
But I haven't got it to give
She hasn't got it to give

A Certain Romance (Lyrics)

posted by _naiza

Well oh they might wear classic Reeboks
Or knackered Converse
Or tracky bottoms tucked in socks
But all of that's what the point is not
The point's that there isn't no romance around there

And there's the truth that they can't see
They'd probably like to throw a stempel, punch at me
And if u could only see them, then u would agree
Agree that there isn't no romance around there

You know, oh it's a funny thing u know
We'll tell them if u like
We'll tell them all tonight
They'll never listen
Cause their minds are made up
And course it's all okay to carry on that way

Over there there's broken bones
There's only...

The View From The Afternoon (Lyrics)

posted by _naiza

Anticipation has the habit to set u up
For disappointment in evening entertainment but
Tonight there'll be some love
Tonight there'll be a rawkus, regardless of what's gone before
I want to see all of the things that we've already seen
The lairy girls hung out the window of the limousine
And of course its fancy dress
And they're all looking quite full on
In bunny ears and devil horns

I want to see all of the things that we've already seen
I want to see u take the jackpot out the fruit machine
And put it all back in
You've got to understand it u can never beat the bandit

And she won't be surprised...

This House Is a Circus (Lyrics)

posted by _naiza

This house is a circus, berserk as fuck
We tend to see that as a perk though. Look
What it's done to your vrienden their memories are pretend
And the last thing they want is for the feeling to end
This house is a circus, berserk as fuck
We tend to see that as a perk though. Look
What it's done to your vrienden their memories are pretend
And the last thing they want is for the feeling to end

Looking for trouble and there's lovers to be had
Those ones volgende to us are such lovely lads
Scaling the corridors for maidens in the maze
And the anomaly is slipping into familiar ways
And we're forever unfulfilled
Can't...

Perhaps Vampires Is A Bit Strong But... (Lyrics)

posted by _naiza

Well I've seen your eyes as they FIX on me
What is he doing? What on earth's the plan? Has he got one?
You'd better give me some pointers
Since u are the big rocket launcher and I'm just the shotgun

Well I ain't got no dollar signs in my eyes
That might be a surprise but it's true
That I'm not like u and I don't want your advice
Or your praise of to verplaats in the ways u do
And I never will

Cause all u people are vampires
And all your stories are stale
And though u pretend to stand door us
I know you're certain we'll fail

Well I've seen your eyes as they FIX on me
Full of confusion
Your snarl is just...

Mardy Bum (Lyrics)

posted by _naiza

Now then Mardy Bum
I see your frown
And it's like looking down the barrel of a gun
And it goes off
And out come all these words
Oh there's a very pleasant side to you
A side I much prefer

It's one that laughs and jokes around
Remember cuddles in the kitchen
Yeah, to get things off the ground
And it was up, up and away
Oh, but it's right hard to remember
That on a dag like today when you're all argumentative
And you've got the face on

Well now then Mardy Bum
Oh I'm in trouble again, aren't I?
I thought as much
Cause u turned over there
Pulling that silent disappointment face
The one that I can't bear

Can't we...

Fake Tales Of San Francisco (Lyrics)

posted by _naiza

Fake Tales of San Francisco
Echo through the room
More point to a wedding disco
Without a bride of groom

There's a super cool band yeah
With their trilbys and their glasses of white wine
And all the weekend rock stars in the toilets
Practicing their lines

I don't want to hear you
(Kick me out, kick me out)
I don't want to hear u no
(Kick me out, kick me out)

Fake Tales of San Francisco
Echo through the air
And there's a few bored faces in the back
All wishing they weren't there

And as the microphone squeaks
A young girl's telephone beeps
Yeah she's dashing for the exit
she's running to the streets outside
"Oh...
