Well the church bells are calling
Police cars on fire And as they call you to the eye of the storm All the people say "Stay at home tonight" I say we are the pigs, we are the swine We are the stars of the firing line And as the smack cracks at your window You wake up with a gun in your mouth Oh let the nuclear wind blow away my sins And I'll stay at home in my house I say, we are the pigs we are the swine we are the stars of the firing line But deceit can't save you so We will watch them burn |

There`s a song playing on the radio
Sky high in the airwaves on the morning show And there`s a lifeline slipping as the record plays As I open the blinds in my mind I`m believing that you could stay And oh, if you stay I`ll chase the rain blown fields away We`ll shine like the morning and sin in the sun Oh if you stay We`ll be the wild ones running with the dogs today There`s a song playing through another wall All we see and believe is the D.J. and debts dissolve And it`s a shame the plane is leaving On this sunny day Cause on you my tattoo will be bleeding And the name will stain But oh, if you stay We`ll ride from disguised suburban graves We`ll go from the bungalows Where the debts still grow each day And oh if you stay I`ll chase the rain blown fields away We`ll shine like the morning and sin in the sun Oh if you stay We`ll be the wild ones Running with the dogs today We`ll be the wild ones Running with the dogs today Oh if you stay... .... |

Whiplash caught the silver son
Took the film to No. I Crashed the car and left us here Broken glass for teenage boys trapped in steel and celluloid Crashed the car and left us here. And daddy burned a million eyes Dared the dogs to criticize He crashed the car and I was born And daddy turned a million heads Took the teenage dream to bed He crashed the car and left us here With dreams of gasoline drying our eyes Green fields of destiny high in the sky But oh can you see him? Oh Daddy's speeding Whiplash caught the silver son Killed the sad American Crashed the car and left us here And sorrow turns his eyes to mine Come with me now it's your time Let's crash the car and I'll be born And sorrow breaks the silent day Takes the teenage boys away They crash the cars and leave us here With dreams of gasoline drying our eyes Green fields and death machines high in the sky But oh can you see him? Oh, when Daddy's speeding |

Through endless Asia, through the fields of Cathay
or enslaved in pebble-dash grave with a kid on the way If you're far over Africa on the wings of youth or if you're down in some satellite town and there's nothing you can do Just give me, give me, give me the power And I'll make them bleed Give me, give me the power (Although I'm just the common breed) You might live in a screen kiss, it's a glamorous dream Or belong to a world that's gone, it's the English disease But give me, give me the power And I'll make them bleed Give me, give me, give me the power (Although I'm just the common breed) |

I wake up every day
to find her back again Screaming my name through the astral plain And in this catalogue fown she takes me down Down through the platinum spires Down through the telephone wires And we shake it around in the underground And like a new generation rise And like all the boys in all the cities I take the poison, take the pity But she and I, we soon discovered we`d take the pills to find each other Oh but when she is calling here in my head Can you hear her calling And what she has said Oh but when she is calling here in my head It`s like a new generation calling Can you hear it call And I`m losing myself, I`m losing myself to you losing myself and l`m losing myself I wake up every day, to find her back again Breeding disease on her hands and knees While the styles turn and the books still burn Yes it`s there in the platinum spires It`s there in the telephone wires And we spread it around to a techno sound But like a new generation rise Cos like all the boys in all the cities I take the poison, take the pity But she and I we soon discover We take the pills to find each other Oh but when she is calling here in my head Can you hear her calling and what she has said And what she is calling here in my head It`s like a new generation calling Can you hear her call And I`m losing myself, losing myself to you losing myself and I`m losing myself to you to you to youto you |

"She-rocker you're wasting your time,
Cos you're only a girl" She'rocker sacked the factory line for a chance of a dance in a surreal world She said, "come rescue, rescue me from this Hollywood life come rescue, rescue me from this Hollywood life" She'rocker hear the audience scream for the death of the king But a hand-job is all the butchery brings Cos fame ain't as easy as him (how sad) Oh, come rescue, rescue me from this Hollywood life come rescue, rescue me from this Hollywood life Come take this Hollywood life |

Lying in my bed, I think of you
That song goes through my head, the one we both knew In each line lies another line full of sacred sound But you're outside where the companies dream and the money goes round Lying in my bed Watching my mistakes, I listen to the band they said that it could be the 2 of us The snow might fall and write the lines on the silent page But you're outside making permanent love to the nuclear age Two silhouettes by the cash machine make a lovers dance It's a tango for the lonely wives of the business class Lying in my bed Watching my mistakes I listen to the band Lying in my bed With nothing much to say so I listen to the man He said that it could be the 2 of us I heard you call from across the city through the stereo sound And so I crawled there sickeningly pretty as the money went round Lying in my head watching my mistakes I listen to the band And the drums beat in my head Pianos chime the sound in this prison of the house And as the illness comes again can you hear me through the rain As I listen to the band As I sing the silent song Mime each lonely word Please listen to the man he said that it could be the 2 of us Alone but not lonely you and me Alone but loaded you and me Alone but loaded but loaded but loaded |

Black Or Blue
There was a girl who flew the world from a lonely shore Through southern snow to Heathrow to understand the law There was a boy who loved the noise of the underground He left the coast and overdosed on that London sound He said, "I don't care if you're black or blue, me and the stars stay up for you I don't care who's wrong or right and I don't care for the U.K. tonight so stay, stay" And then one day she moved away from those garden walls She left some flowers, he smoked for hours She understood the law I don't care if you're black or blue Me and the stars stay up for you I don't care who's wrong or right And I don't care for the U.K. tonight So stay, stay, stay, stay.......... ........there was a girl who flew the world |

I know a girl she walks the asphalt world
She comes to me and I supply her with Ecstasy Sometimes we ride in a taxi to the ends of the city Like big stars in the back seat like skeletons ever so pretty But where does she go? And what does she do? And how does she feel when she's next to you? And who does she love in time-honoured fur? Is it me or her? I know a girl she walks the asphalt world She's got a friend, they share mascara I pretend Sometimes they fly from the covers to the winter of the river For these silent stars of the cinema It's in the blood stream, it's in the liver I know a girl, she walks the arse felt world But where does she go? And what does she do? And how does she feel when she's next to you? And who does she love in time-honoured fur? Is it me or is it her? With ice in her blood And a Dove in her head Well how does she feel when she's in your bed? When you're there in her arms And there in her legs Well I'll be in her head Cos that's where I go And that's what I do And that's how it feels when the sex turns cruel Yes both of us need her, this is the asphalt world |

This still life is all I ever do
There by the window quietly killed for you In the glass house my insect life Crawling the walls under electric lights I'll go into the night into the night She and I into the night Is this still life all I'm good for too There by the window quietly killed for you And they drive by like insects do They think they don't know me They hired a car for you To go into the night into the night She and I into the night And this still life is all I ever do There by the window quietly killed for you And this still life is all I ever do But it's still still life But it's still still life But it's still still life |

In a hired car she will come to England from the sea,
And as the tide flows the London snows will come. And from the skyline shines the lies of the government's singular history So in a hired world she will buy a gun And she will come from India with a love in her eyes That say, oh how my dark star will rise In rented gear 2000 years we waited for a man But with a tattoed tit she'd die for us all tonight. And she will come from India with a gun at her side, Or she will come from Argentina With her cemetery eyes that say Oh, how my dark star will rise, ...and she will rise. |

Where's all the money gone?--
I'm talking to you, All up the hole in your arm, Is the needle a much better screw? But oh, what will you do alone? 'Cos I have to go. Where is this life of fun that you promised me? Nothing here works but your works and I mean it I have to leave But oh, what will you do alone? 'Cos I have to go. If I was the wife of an acrobat would I look like the living dead, boy? You're on the wire and can't get back, let's talk about the living dead Could have had a car, could have had it all, Could have walked in the sky but we stare at the wall. I know where the money's gone-- I know what you do 'Cos I've seen the hole in your arm and The needle's a much better screw But oh, what will you do alone? 'Cos I have to go. |

Come to my house tonight
We can be together in the nuclear sky And we will dance in the poison rain And we can stay a while in Heaven today Let's stay together Let's stay, these days are ours Let's die together? Two hearts under the skyscrapers There's a time bomb in the high rise There's a blue suburban dream Will I see you up in paradise Or have you come to catch me? Come to my arms tonight Just you and me together under electric light And she will dance in the poisoned den Just you and me forever by the motorway there Let's stay together Let's stay, these days are ours And we can stay together Two hearts under the skyscrapers There's a time bomb in the high rise There's a blue suburban dream Will I see you up in Paradise Or have you come to catch me? Come to my arms I'm lost Just you and me together in the year of the horse Single file in the nuclear night And we could feel a little closer As we tumble through the sky Let's stay together, let's stay these days are ours Let's stay together Two hearts under a skyscraper Let's stay together, let's stay in this broken down love Let's stay together, two hearts under the skyscrapers |

Whipsnade
We are only young, But we style our future with a cattle gun And we aren't idle rich, So we smile for tomorrow with a bitch of an itch Cause when the firelight shocks like a cop shop pyre We'll sack the politics for premonition and fire And we'll move like nureyev that night Coast to coast, side to side Shines the lies of fine enlightened minds Coast to coast We are only young But we style our future in the shadow of guns And we are not idle rich So we smile for tomorrow with a bitch of an itch Cause when the stylised kick of the filmstar whip Cracks down on the millions, Cracks the kids on their hips Then we'll move like nuryev that night 'Cos coast to coast, side to side Shines the lies of fine enlightened minds Coast to coast, side to side Feel the steel that shines outside the blinds Coast to coast, side to side Blades engraved with babies' names While pylons hide the suicide Coast to coast, side to side Shines the light of fine enlightened minds Coast to coast, side to side Feel the steel that shines outside the blinds Coast to coast, side to side Blades engraved with babies' names While pylons hide the suicides |

Come unto me my winter son
We could lie on the rails And when the morning comes We'll be miles away Miles away Slipping away while the city sleeps Running away from this cruel disease Miles away, miles away Modern boys, modern boys Hand in hand, sick of the fear Chasing away all the hungry years We're the modern boys Come onto me my sickly thing We could lie on the rails But to really win we'll just drive away, drive away Yes, the world calls my international So let the decades die, let the parties fall And we'll be miles away, miles away Because we'll be living like Modern boys, modern boys Hand in hand, sick of the fear Chasing away all the hungry years Into the night, under the stars Jumping the lights in the silent cars He's on your left, I'm on your right It's so easy in the concrete night |
