Friends say it's fine, friends say it's good Everybody says it's just like Robin Hood I move like a rat, talk like a cat, sting like a bee Babe I'm gonna be your man And it's plain to see you were meant for me, yeah I'm your toy, your twentieth century boy
Friends says it's fine, friends says it's good Everybody says it's just like Robin Hood Fly like a plane, drive like a car, hold out your hand Babe I'm gonna be your man And it's plain to see you were meant for me, yeah I'm your boy, your twentieth century toy
Twentieth century boy I wanna be your toy Twentieth century boy I wanna be your toy Twentieth century boy I wanna be your toy Twentieth century boy I wanna be your toy
Friends say it's fine, friends say it's good Everybody says it's just like Rock 'n' Roll I move like a cat, talk like a rat, sting like a bee Babe I'm gonna be your man And it's plain to see you were meant for me, yeah I'm your toy, your twentieth century boy
Twentieth century boy I wanna be your toy Twentieth century boy I wanna be your toy Twentieth century boy I wanna be your toy Twentieth century boy I wanna be your toy

BEEN SMOKING TOO LONG
'Yeah, I really, um, I really I really wanted to kind of like To capture some kind of like moment, but maybe it's better if I'm sober...'
Wake up in the morning, I look at my clock It's way past noontime, I'm late for work Tell me what have I done wrong? Nothing can go right with me It must be that I've been smoking too long
Go to fix me some breakfast, I ain't got no food Take me a shower, the water don't feel no good Tell me what have I done wrong? And nothing can go right with me Must be that I've been smoking too long I got opium in my chimney, no other life to choose Nightmares made of hash dreams, the devil in my shoes What have I done wrong? Yeah nothing can go right with me It must be that I've been smoking too long
When I'm smoking, smoking, put my worries on a shelf Try not to think about nothing, don't wanna see myself What have I done wrong? And nothing can go right with me It must be that I've been smoking too long
In this blues I'm singing, there's a lesson to be learned You go round smoking, you're gonna get burned Fuck me what have I done wrong? Nothing can go right with me Must be that I've been smoking too long Too long
BIGMOUTH STRIKES AGAIN
Sweetness Sweetness I was only joking when I said I'd like to smash every tooth in your head Oh sweetness Sweetness I was only joking when I said By rights you should be bludgeoned in your bed
And now I know how Joan of Arc felt Now I know how Joan of Arc felt As the flames rose to her roman nose And her discman started to melt
Bigmouth la da dum da da Bigmouth la da da da Bigmouth strikes again And I've got no right to take my place In the human race
Oh Bigmouth la da dum da da Bigmouth la da da da Bigmouth strikes again And I've got no right to take my place In the human race
And now I know how Joan of Arc felt Now I know how Joan of Arc felt As the flames rose to her roman nose And her megadrive started to melt
Bigmouth la da dum da da Bigmouth la da da da Bigmouth strikes again And I've got no right to take my place In the human race
Oh Bigmouth la da dum da da Bigmouth la da da da bigmouth strikes again And I've got no right to take my place In the human race
(lyrics by Morrissey & Johnny Marr)

DARK GLOBE
Oh where are you now Pussy willow that smiled on this leaf? When I was alone You promised the stone from your heart My head kissed the ground I was half the way down Treading the sand Please Please lift a hand I'm only a person Whose armbands beat On his hands, hang tall Won't you miss me? Wouldn't you miss me at all? Oh Oh Oh
The poppy bird's way Swing twigs coffee brands around Brandish her wand with a feathery tongue My head kissed the ground I was half the way down Treading the sand Please Please Please lift a hand I'm only a person With Eskimo chain I tattooed my brain all the way Won't you miss me? Wouldn't you miss me at all? Oh Oh Oh
(lyrics by Syd Barrett)
DROWNING BY NUMBERS
Open up your heart, let me slip inside Such determination always tries to turn the tide Open up your arms, let me dive into The big, big blue
Try losing, this chromosome It's my choosing, down to the bone
Open up your heart, let me slip inside Such imagination always helps the feeling slide Open up your soul, falling back into The big, big blue
Try losing, this chromosome It's my choosing, down to the bone
Blood, dive in Blood, drowning Blood, dive in (repeat)
Open up your heart, let me slip inside Auto-flagellation always helps the ghost to hide Open up your arms, let me dive into The big, big blue
Try losing, this chromosome It's my choosing, down to the bone
Blood, dive in Blood, drowning Blood, dive in (repeat)
EYESIGHT TO THE BLIND
You don't know me And you never hold me Like your little piece on the side
My mother told me That you're never lonely When you're laughing all the time
Inside out and outside in You bring eyesight to the blind Crying is a crime
Slowing down the metronome Slowing down Slowing down the metronome Slowing down
You don't know me And you never hold me Like your little boy in blue
My father told me That you're always lonely When they're all laughing at you
Inside out and outside in You bring Jesus to the Jew
Slowing down the metronome Slowing down Slowing down the metronome Slowing down
You don't know me And you never hold me Like your little piece on the side
Inside out and outside in You bring eyesight to the blind
FLESH MECHANIC
He tries to embrace her She wants him to race her He needs a laser To get it through her skull Means and lies and hatreds Tears that fall in sequence Cold caress imprints Conversation growing dull
Says he's a poet Lousy protozoan And he kisses ass for free
I took a vow of silence When he tries to talk to me I just turn on the tv
He tries to impress her Mentally undress her It takes more to possess her But in his pocket lies a hole
He's got a thousand talents Charisma by the bagfull Aristocratic parents A rebel with a heart of gold
Says he's a poet This time he's gonna blow it 'Cause he's dancing with his ego
I took a vow of silence When he reads his work to me I swallow words like a Placebo
He's strutting with your flesh mechanic Gets him in a panic He's wasting time 'Cause everybody is a star In his eyes
Careful not to give your favours To your lonesome fucked-up neighbours I had one who sent me her heart In a tupperware container All the movies in my head They flicker with my bleeding heart A careless slipping of the tongue On just another private part
Blatant search for Stoned affection Fights the rust that Breeds infection Meet me at the Intersection Don't forget your Fuel injection
He's strutting with your flesh mechanic Gets him in a panic He's wasting time 'Cause everybody is a star In his eyes
You think this love is bona fide You're being taken for a ride Wrap your lip around your head And slowly blow yourself away
HOLOCAUST
Your eyes are almost dead Can't get out of bed And you can't sleep
You're sitting down to dress And you're a mess You look in the mirror
You look in your eyes Then you realize
Everybody goes Leaving those Who fall behind
Everybody goes As far as they can They don't just care
They stood on the stairs Laughing at your airs
Your mother's dead She said "Don't be afraid"
Your mother's dead You're on your own She's in her bed
Everybody goes Leaving those Who fall behind
Everybody goes As far as they can They don't just care
You're a wasted face You're a sad-eyed lie You're a holocaust
(lyrics by Alex Chilton)
I FEEL YOU
I feel you Your sun it shines
I feel you Within my mind You take me there You take me where The kingdom comes You take me to And lead me through Babylon This is the morning of our love It's just the dawning of our love
I feel you Your heart it sings
I feel you The joy it brings Where heaven waits Those golden gates And back again You take me to And lead me through oblivion This is the morning of our love It's just the dawning of our love
I feel you Your precious soul And I am whole I feel you Your rising sun My kingdom comes
I feel you Each move you make
I feel you Each breath you take Where angels sing And spread their wings My love's on high You take me home To glory's throne By and by This is the morning of our love It's just the dawning of our love
(lyrics by Depeche Mode)
JOHNNY & MARY
Johnny's always running around, trying to find certainty He needs all the world to confirm, that he ain't lonely
Mary counts walls, knows he tires easily Johnny thinks the world would be right, if it would buy, truth from him
Mary says he changes his mind, more than a woman But she made her bed, even when the chance was slim
Johnny says he's willing to learn, when he decides, he's a fool Johnny say's he'll live any where, when he earns time to Mary combs her hair, says she should be use to it
Mary always edges her bets, she never knows, what to think She says that he still acts, like he's being discovered Scared that he'll get caught, without a second thought
Johnny feels he's wasting his breath, trying to talk, sense to her Mary says he's lacking a real, sense of proportion So she combs her hair, knows he tires easily
Johnny's always running around, trying to find certainty He needs all the world to confirm, that he ain't lonely Mary counts walls, says she should be use to it
(lyrics by Robert Palmer)
KITSCH OBJECT
Just like every lichen, how you stick to me If your luck is dying, go and plant a tree With artistic license, always comes for free Just like every lichen, how you stick to me
Snook your way backstage Paris sets the rage Coursing on your brain So now I slip away
Just like every lichen, how you stick to me If your luck is dying, go and plant a tree With artistic license, always comes for free Just like every lichen, how you stick to me Weightless.. Bare.. Faithless... Scared
Know that bitches face??? All seen better days So quick to blow your fuse But that's the life you choose
Just like every lichen, how you stick to me If your luck is dying, go and plant a tree With artistic license, always comes for free Just like every lichen, how you stick to me Weightless.. Bare.. Faithless... Scared
Snook yourself backstage Paris sets the rage Coursing on your brain So now I slip away
Just like every lichen, how you stick to me If your luck is dying now, go and plant a tree With poetic license, always comes for free Just like every lichen, how you stick to me Weightless.. Bare.. Faithless... Scared
LENI
I kneel before her, beneath this frozen sky Beneath her shoulder, beneath her evil eye She towers over this male who is a fly My sci-fi lullaby
I kneel before her, beneath this frozen sky I beg below her, my limbs are paralysed She beats me harder than any kind of guy My sci-fi lullaby
MARS LANDING PARTY
Embrasse moi, mets ton doigt dan mon cul Embrasse moi, mets ton doigt dan mon cul Une présence ambigüe Une présence inconnue Jusqu'a ce que j'en peux plus

MISS MONEYPENNY
Penance for his sin, he locked it in for just a little while Lubricating creams, sanitaries would only cramp his style It's a dirty job but shooting guns just makes you horny Wants to spill his seed on guaranteed, service with a smile
Miss Moneypenny Miss Moneypenny Oh Miss Moneypenny Miss Moneypenny Oh
Pitter patter of the eyelid on the first roll of the dice Feel the atmosphere, it's gently laced with nicotine and spice It's a long walk home, the entrance of the night is scary Only trouble is, he never learned to shoot the same gun twice
Miss Moneypenny Miss Moneypenny Oh Miss Moneypenny Miss Moneypenny Oh
Every job he saves the girl Martini, mobile phone Bastards getting in his way They're all pushing daisies All you need to make a movie is a gun and a girl
0898 007 (repeat)
PAYCHECK
Consumed by the one's who made her She's a faker, always let's me down Dressed up like a capital shaker Full of ganja Drugs are not put down All night was just a performance G-string skirt Don't you make me frown She could've been a nutter So I had to cut the mother down
Slacker, wasting half his life on sniffing glue Now he's a foreman working for the red the white and blue Plain sailing, safe surfing Public peeling, back stab
Confused by the one's who break her She's a faker, never makes a sound Undressed like a soul in prayer Buying shares, pay her by the pound I'll have your face for breakfast I'm in excess, need of a stroke down She could've been a nutter So I had to cut the mother down
Slacker, wasted half his life on speed??? Now he's reformed and working for the red the white and blue Plain sailing, shoulder rubbing Dental flossing, back stab
Paycheck, Paycheck
Save the best for later Be careful not to stain the sheets now You god damn liar Take me higher
I never wanted the real thing I never wanted the real thing I never wanted the real thing I never wanted the real thing I never wanted the real thing I never wanted the real thing I never wanted the real thing
Slacker, wasted half his life on sniffing glue Now he's reformed, working for the red the white and blue Plain sailing, wife swapping Stool pigeon, back stab
Paycheck, Paycheck
Save the best for later Be careful not to stain the sheets now You god damn liar Pants on fire Cold ??? But this one really takes the piss It's likely to proquandry I deserve so much more than this
SLACKERBITCH
It echoes in my brain I didn't mean it Pulses through my veins I didn't mean it I'm the one to blame I didn't mean it Did too much cocaine I didn't mean it
Slackerbitch, faghag, whore Looks real cute, her lips are sore Slackerbitch, faghag, whore Always comes back for more
Your memory will fade I didn't mean it You've always had it made I didn't mean it I know you feel betrayed I didn't mean it I just wanted to get laid I didn't mean it
Slackerbitch, faghag, whore Looks real cute, her lips are sore Slackerbitch, faghag, whore Always knocking on my door
You come across impure I didn't mean it You're goddamn immature I didn't mean it You act so insecure I didn't mean it You hate me now I'm sure I didn't mean it
Slackerbitch, faghag, whore Looks real cute, her lips are sore Slackerbitch, faghag, whore Dripping sex from every pore
Slackerbitch, faghag, whore Looks real cute, her lips are sore Slackerbitch, faghag, whore Such a motherfucking bore
THEN THE CLOUDS WILL OPEN FOR ME
My guy has a tan transcontinental But it keeps me enchained Watch an old black and white movie Fred and Ginger are too sentimental, crying in shame
I don't want to be forgotten I can't be alone So don't you dare leave me It's like coming home To a skin that has died Human voices like a drum And they're looking right through me Scatter the ashes one more time for me One more time for me
My guy has a tattoo ornamental When he's frozen in space Cut your eye far to me A covered carcass is too elemental, caught underneath a subway
I don't want to be forgotten I can't be alone So don't you dare leave me It's like coming home It's a skin that has died Human voices like a drum And they're looking right through me Scatter the ashes one more time for me One more time for me
One more time for me, one more time for me One more time for me, one more time for me One more time for me, one more time for me
Trans-likened, twisting my ankle Doing the grave dance Narcotic??? yes please, I'll have a sample Riding on my very last chance
Then the clouds will open for me Gonna meet my Jesus Christ I see history playing before me For pleasure and passion you pay the price Sadness the name of the spike that took me I'll make that's all Like some raging, hard, horny Mephistopheles Who came for my soul
WAITING FOR THE SON OF MAN
Patience comes to the ugly, not me Laughter comes to the lucky, not me People in my head that won't stop talking Nothing in my dream that isn't creepy crawling Walking in the park and I think that I'm falling Swimming in the sea and I think I'll You guessed it Only lifeguards Only lifeguards Packing all the time Can save me
Waiting Waiting Waiting
For the son of man For the son of man
Patience comes to the ugly, not me Concentration comes to the ugly, not me Nothing on the box that hasn't been born No-one in the street that isn't old Driving in the car and I think that I'm crashing Swimming in the Sea and I think that I'll You guessed it Only lifeguards Only lifeguards Packing all the time Can save me
