Garbage

Welcome
We love you
We hate you
We love you
We want you
We need you
We wish we were like you
They say you're a saint
You're a whore
You're a sinner
That he had you
He made you
He can't live without you
Would you confess if we asked
That you nurture the urge
To declare that it's time
To settle down
With a man of your own
You want a baby
A family
A piece of security
Shut your mouth
Try not to panic
Just shut your mouth
If you can do it
Shut your mouth
Try not to panic
Just shut your mouth
If you can do it
Just shut your mouth
What's your opinion of the dire situation
In our land here
Our guest here
Of course you'll be nice here
How do you feel about God and religion
Are you good people
Bad people
Guess it doesn't matter people
Your place
My place
Make her bring that famous face
You got some
You want some
You wanna let me get you some
We know your music but of course we'd never buy it
It's too fake man
Right man!
(We don't give a fucking damn)
Shut your mouth
Try not to panic
Just shut your mouth
If you can do it
Shut your mouth
Try not to panic
Just shut your mouth
If you can do it
I hear you say it
Play it smart girl
Win the game love
Give뭙m what they want
What they want to see and you could be a big star
You could go far
Make a landmark
What have you been reading you smart girl?
Win the game love
Give뭙m what they want
What they want to see and you could be a big star
You could go far
Make a landmark
Make a shitload
And the world spins by
With everybody moaning
Pissing, bitching and everyone is shitting
On their friends
On their love
On their oaths
On their honor
On their graves
On their mouths
And their words say nothing
Shut your mouth
Try not to panic
Just shut your mouth
If you can do it
Shut your mouth
Try not to panic
Just shut your mouth
If you can do it
Just shut your mouth
I wanted to say something
Oh shut your mouth
I wanted to say something
Just shut your mouth
I wanted to say something
Oh shut your mouth
I wanted to be something
Just shut your mouth

When everything is going wrong
And you can't see the point of going on
Nothing in life is set in stone
There's nothing that can't be turned around

Nobody wants to be alone
Everybody wants to love someone
Out of the tree go pick a plum
Why can't we all just get along

You free your mind in your androgyny

Boys in the parlor

They're getting harder
I'll free your mind in your androgyny

No sweeter a taste that you could find
Than fruit hanging ripe upon the vine
There's never been an oyster so divine
A river deep that never runs dry

What you need
What you need
What you need
What you need
What you need
What you need
What you need

Like treasure they twinkle in the sun
Get on board and have some fun
Take what you need to turn you on

I just don't care anymore
I've reached the end of the rope
I just don't care anymore
Won't cry these tears anymore

Can't find it in the bible
Can't find it on t.v.
Can't find it in diamonds
There's something inside me that just went around it
Can't find it in music
Can't find it in my soul
Can't find it in chocolate
Oh babe I can't hide it
I can't even fight it

I just don't care anymore
I've reached the end of the rope
I just don't care anymore
Won't cry these tears anymore

There's no way she can kiss you the way that I do
I heard that you miss me
Oh you should be careful of whom you've been talking to
Ten long nights without you have taught me to be strong
I've cut all my losses
Think no more about it because I couldn't fight it

I just don't care anymore
I've reached the end of the rope
I just don't care anymore
Won't cry these tears anymore

There was a time I thought I'd die
If you should ever leave me high and dry
And you don't want me anymore
It's time to settle the score

I just don't care anymore
I've reached the end of my temper I'm tired of the letters
I just don't care anymore
Won't cry these tears anymore
I just don't care anymore
I've reached the end of my rope and it's time that I've taught you so
I just don't care anymore
Won't cry these tears anymore

It's time to settle the score

You walked into the room
The sun hit my eyes
The force you struck me down caught me by surprise
You sprung the mojo and it worked like a charm
I felt invincible with you in my arms

I must confess it can feel good to feel pain
Like breaking waves or getting caught in the rain
Playing those games cause we had nothing to do
I was oblivious I was losing to you

Oh I will love you to the day that I die

Holy Jesus
Holy rock 'n roll
The more I gave to you the more you grew bored
And making love became the waging of war
No peace
No tenderness
No fun anymore

I dream that I called out your name
You turned your face to me and started to say
Something so beautiful it hurt deep inside
So I will love you till the day that I die

You tell me you don't love me over a cup of coffee
And I just have to look away
A million miles between us
Planets crashing to dust
I just let it fade away

I'm walking empty streets hoping we might meet
I see your car parked on the road
The light on at your window
I know for sure that you're home
But I just have to pass on by

So no of course we can't be friends
Not while I'm still this obsessed
I guess I always knew the score
This is how our story ends

I smoke your brand of cigarettes
And pray that you might give me a call
I lie around in bed all day just staring at the walls
Hanging round bars at night wishing I had never been born
And give myself to anyone who wants to take me home

So no of course we can't be friends
Not while I still feel like this
I guess I always knew the score
This is where our story ends

You left behind some clothes
My belly summersaults when I pick them off the floor
My friends all say they're worried
I'm looking far too skinny
I've stopped returning all their calls

And no of course we can't be friends
Not while I'm still so obsessed
I want to ask where I went wrong
But don't say anything at all

It took a cup of coffee
To prove that you don't love me

If I am silent
Then I am not real
If I speak up then
No one will hear
If I wear a mask there's
Somewhere to hide

Silence is golden
I have been broken
Safe in my own skin
So nobody wins

If I raise my voice
Will someone get hurt?
And if I can feel it
But I won't get touched
If no truth was spoken
Then no lies can hide

Silence is golden
I have been broken
Safe in my own skin
So nobody wins

Silence is golden
Nobody guessing
Safe in my own skin
So nobody wins

Did you hear me speak
Do you understand
Did you hear my voice
Will you hold my hand
Do you understand me

Won't someone listen?
Nobody guessing
My body's a temple
But nothing is simple

Silence is golden
I have been broken
Something was stolen
Safe in my own skin

Safe in my own skin
Won't someone listen?
My body's a temple
But nothing is simple

My body's a temple
But nothing is simple
Something was stolen
I have been broken

I have been broken
Silence is golden
I have been broken
Safe in my own skin

She gave you everything she had

But she was young and dumb

She just turned 21

She didn't care to hang around

So when the shit came down why she was nowhere to be found

This life can turn a good girl bad

She was the sweetest thing that you had ever seen



You're such a delicate boy

In the hysterical realm

Of an emotional landslide

In physical terms



With your cherry lips and golden curls

You could make grown men gasp when you go walking past

And in your hot pants and high heels

They could not believe that such a body was for real

It seemed like rainbows would appear

Whenever you came near the clouds would disappear

Because you look just like a girl

Your baby blues would flash and suddenly a spell was cast



You're such a delicate boy

In the hysterical realm

Of an emotional landslide

In physical terms



You hold a candle in your heart

To shine the light on hidden parts

You make the whole world wanna dance

You bought yourself a second chance



Go baby go go

We're right behind you

Go baby go go

Yeah, we're looking at you

Go baby go go

Oh ,we're right behind you

Go baby go baby

Yeah, we're right behind you

Go baby go baby

Oh, we're right behind you

Go baby go baby

Yeah, we're looking at you

Go baby go baby

Oh, we're right behind you

Go baby go baby

Yeah, we're looking at you



You hold a candle in your heart

Go baby go go

You shine the light on hidden parts

Go baby go go

You make the whole world wanna dance

Go baby go go

You bought yourself a second chance

Go baby go baby go

Delicate boy

Go baby go baby go

In the hysterical realm

Go baby go baby go

Of an emotional landslide

Go baby go baby go

In physical terms

Go baby go go

Go



Yeah, we're looking at you

Go baby go go

Oh, we're right behind you

In a modern culture
My friend you must be careful
They've a million ways to kill you

In this dangerous world
There?s an art to growing old
Taking chances
Magic happens

One mistake's all it takes
And your life has come undone
Walk away cause you're breaking up the girl
It's a drag
I know it's hard
But you're tearing her apart
Walk away cause you're breaking up the girl

I am afraid that there's much to be afraid of
Here today, gone tomorrow
Don't end up in the gutter
Just like the one before
You're just the same
You're such a loser

One mistake's all it takes
And your life has come undone
Walk away cause you're breaking up the girl
It's a drag
I know it's hard
But you're tearing her apart
Walk away cause you're breaking up the girl

You've got to let her go because you're breaking up the girl
The girl

One mistake's all it takes
And your life has come undone
Walk away cause you're breaking up the girl
It's a drag
I know it's hard
But you're tearing her apart
Walk away cause you're breaking up the girl

You're breaking up the girl
You're breaking up the girl
The girl

It's funny how
Even now
You still support me after all the things that I've done
You're so good to me
Waiting patiently
And isn't it sad that you still have to ask if I care

I never said I was perfect
But I can take you away
Walk on shells tonight
Can't do right tonight
And you can't say a word cause I leap down your throat
So uptight am I
I never said I was perfect
But I can drive you home

I got down on myself
Working too hard
Driving myself to death
Trying to beat up the faults in my head
What a mess I've made
Sure we all make mistakes
But they see me so large
That they think I'm immune to the pain

Walk on shells tonight
Can't do right tonight
And you can't say a word cause I leap down your throat
So uptight am I
I'm praying for a miracle
But I won't hold my breath

I never said I was perfect
But can you take me home

KABOOM
Get it right
Get it right now
Get it right
Do it good
Get it right now



Oh let's bomb the facrory

That makes all the wannabes

Let's burst all the bublles

That brainwash the masses


As far as i can tell

It oesn't matter who you are

If you can believe there's something worth fighting for

The colour of an eye

The glory of a sudden view

The baby in your arms

The smile he always shoots at you


Believing in nothing

Makes life so boring

So let's pray for something

To feel good in the morning


As far as i can tell

It oesn't matter who you are

If you can believe there's something worth fighting for

The colour of an eye

The glory of a sudden view

The baby in your arms

The smile he always shoots at you


KABOOM
Get it right
Get it right now
Get it right
Do it good
Get it right now


Oh doctor

We're dying

There's no use in crying

So live for tommorrow

And do what you have to


As far as i can tell

It oesn't matter who you are

If you can believe there's something worth fighting for

The colour of an eye

The glory of a sudden view

The baby in your arms

The smile he always shoots at you


Oh let's pray

But something

Just fell good

In the moring

In the moring

In the moring

In the moring

In the moring

In the moring

Watching the days slip by so fast
Knowing our fate has long been cast
Working our fingers to the bone
Cause nobody loves you when you're gone, gone, gone, gone

Coughing up feeling just for you
To find something real to hold on to
But there is a hole inside my heart
Where all of my love comes pouring out

You know you'll always be my man
But grab yourself sweetness where you can
Cause sooner or later we're gonna die
Left to the dogs under the sky

I cracked a piece of broken glass
I cracked a piece of broken glass

Coughing up feeling just for you
To find something real to hold on to
But there is a hole inside my heart
Where waves of my love come tumbling out
You say that all the good is gone
That I have forgotten who I am
Free as a bird
Wild as the wind
But somehow I cannot let you in

This is nothing new to me
It takes more than what you've got
To frighten me
I'm not scared of you
There?s nothing you can do
Or take from me

CHORUS:
Untouchable
You think you're untouchable
You know
No one?s untouchable

You're bound to lose the game
There's no one else to blame
You play so safe
And you're not risking enough
You are doomed to be undone
I swear I'll be the one
To bring you down

It?s all your fault
Cause you got caught

CHORUS:

It must be nice
To be so sure
And never feel insecure
It must feel good to believe
You're always right
And you're never wrong

You've got something to say
You say it to my face
And be a man about it
You got a problem with me
Don't go behind my back
Just like a baby

Untouchable (pride comes before)
You think you're untouchable (you take a fall)
You know (you best beware)
No one?s untouchable (your woman's gone)
Untouchable (pride comes before)
You think you're untouchable (you take a fall)
You know (you best beware)
No one?s untouchable (your woman's gone)
No one's untouchable
You think you're untouchable
You know, no one's untouchable
No one's untouchable (4 X

Baby thinks he's dying
Lost inside his bedroom
Mommy won't stop crying
And daddy's always working

There's no going back
There's no going back
There's no going back
On this one

Baby wakes up with the sun
While everyone is sleeping
He thinks he's going crazy
But this could be the big one

There's no going back
There's no going back
There's no going back

Sleeping with ghosts
It's such a warming experience
The stars are out tonight
Only they can hear you breathing

You're so like a rose
You're so like a rose
You're so like a rose
I wish you could stay here

I would die for you
I would die for you
I've been dying just to feel you by my side
To know that you're mine

I will cry for you
I will cry for you
I will wash away your pain with all my tears
And drown your fear

I will pray for you
I will pray for you
I will sell my soul for something pure and true
Someone like you

See your face every place that I walk in
Hear your voice every time I am talking
You will believe in me
And I will never be ignored

I will burn for you
Feel pain for you
I will twist the knife and bleed my aching heart
And tear it apart

I will lie for you
I can steal for you
I will crawl on hands and knees until you see
You're just like me

Violate all my love that I'm missing
Throw away all the pain that I'm living
You will believe in me
And I can never be ignored

I would die for you
I would kill for you
I will steal for you
I'd do time for you
I would wait for you
I'd make room for you
I'd sail ships for you
To be close to you
To be a part of you
'Cause I believe in you
I believe in you
I would die for you

Girl don't come
If it's all been said and done
Don't hang around
Let them kick back off the ground
Let them kick back off the ground

Girl don't come
He's got nothing left to lose
But that's all right
That could well change overnight
He'll want to take that pretty head
Lay down in someone else's bed

Girl don't come
Girl don't come
Girl don't come
Girl don't come

If you want my sympathy my dear
You better not come near my dear
I think it's fair to say my dear
You better see my way
You better see my way

Girl don't come
Girl don't come
Girl don't come
Girl don't come
Girl don't come
Girl don't come (If you want my sympathy my dear)
Girl don't come (You better not come near my dear)
Girl don't come (I think it's fair to say my dear)
Girl don't come (You better see my way my dear)
Girl don't come (If you want my sympathy my dear)
Girl don't come (You better not come near my dear)
Girl don't come (I think it's fair to say my dear)
Girl don't come (You better see my way my dear

Burn down all your idols
Destroy your idols
Create a scene
There goes all your reason
It's helter skelter
It's not a dream

Come down from the altar
Remove your blindfold
What do you see
Nothing left to do here
There's nothing new here
It's all the same

You're going down, down, down
How low can you go?
You're going down, down, down
How low can you go?
You're going down, down, down
How low can you go?

Hare Hare Krishna
Was that your sister
Or a cover girl
A wasted prima donna
She lost her way here
She disappeared

Come back to your altar
And build a fire
It's getting cold
Nothing stops you in here
There's not a stone here
You're all alone

You're going down, down, down
How low can you go?
You're going down, down, down
How low can you go?
You're going down, down, down
How low can you go?

Kill the new religion
No inhibition
No alibi
Televised confession
A true obsession
It's all new lies

Miscommunication
Misinformation
A perfect waste
Bite the sacred apple
And suck the poison
Enjoy the taste

You're going down, down, down
How low can you go?
You're going down, down, down
How low can you go?
You're going down, down, down
You're going down, down, down
You're going down, down, down
How low can you go?

How low can you go?
How low can you go?
How low can you go?
How low can you go?
How low can you go?

In the middle of the night
Head on my pillow
Looking like a little ghost

Seems like all of the things
That you gave your mother
Have all gone up in smoke

In the middle of the night
You don't know what I'm thinking
But still the stars still sparkle and shine

Seems like all of the time
Our boat was slowly sinking
You didn't even seem to mind

Now all I want to do is sleep
Now all I want to do is sleep
Now all I want to do is sleep

i bit my tongue and stood in line
with not much to believe in
i bought into what i was sold
and ended up with nothing

this is not my idea of a good time
this is not my idea of a good time
this is not my idea of a good time
this is not my idea

you thought that i would never see
what was meant for you was meant for me
i was distracted at the time
forget about yours now what about mine?

this is not my idea of a good time
this is not my idea of a good time
this is not my idea of a good time
this is not my idea

you thought i was a little girl
you thought i was a little mouse
you thought you'd take me by surprise
now I'm here burning down your house

this is not my idea of a good time
this is not my idea of a good time
this is not my idea of a good time
this is not my idea

hanging by threads of pale silver
i could have stayed that way forever
bad blood and ghosts wrapped tight around me
nothing could ever seem to touch me
i lose what i love most
did you know i was lost until you found me?

a stroke of luck or a gift from God?
the hand of fate of devil's claws?
from below or saints above
you came to me
here comes the cold again
i feel it closing in
it's falling down and all around me
falling

you say that you'll be there to catch me
or will you only try to trap me
these are the rules i make
our chains were meant to break
you'll never change me

here comes the cold again
i feel it closing in
you're falling down and all around me
falling
a stroke of luck or a gift from god?
the hand of fate or devil's claws?
from below or saints above
you come to me now

don't ask me why
don't even try

a stroke of luck or a gift from God?
the hand of fate of devil's claws?
from below or saints above
you came to me
here comes the cold again
i feel it closing in
it's falling down and all around me
falling
falling
falling
falling
falling
falling
falling
falling
falling
falling
