My Shangri-Laaa
03:55
|
|||
You said that I'm a waste of life my cocktails ever boring
Conversation more dismal yet
I'd break a coconut with telepathic fury
Mix it with anything I get
Don't laugh at me when I come out in a dress
Both halves of me have a willing to forget
Oh, silly sod you'll never see me when I come around
They with their old ways can come take a lessonTake a train that's eastward bound into my worldMy simple small world, my little cold world, my Shangri-Laaa
When the time is right you'll see me fly into the mountains
With a feather in my cap
If what I read is right I'll land with all my buttons
Victorious, I'll do a lap

Clink and cluster
02:47
|
|||
Hack these casinos pinkos plead
Good weathers on the run
I've got an inkling twinkling stars
Are just like our own poor sun
Neolithic farming structure
So terrific that we muster
Some good feelings clink and cluster
Three times a year
Stacked up and linked O's on the phone
Bask in the darkened sea
Sky's in a slumber watch it fall
And crumble on you and me
Jacket weather cold and rainy
Big black feather down the drainy
Holding back I dream of maybes
Four times a year
When the morning's on it's head
Don't you fluster, don't you fret
Think of what's been said to you
Now do what you've got to do
Coax the weak and turn them round
Bigger them into the ground
Think of what's ahead for you
Now do what you said you'd do

Voilà now you're old
06:01
|
|||
Come back you'll never believe
Relax and put up your feet
In only a moment everything gone
You'd better pack up and charge up your phone
We're almost alone
Wise up, another could hear
In luck, a summer of tears
It's only a moment then it's all gone
A delicate pasture, a pallet of bone
Voilà now you're old
Washed down, a memory trapped up in my heart, everyone knows the place
Forgot and kicked out the bed like in my heart, everyone knows a place
Five million silhouettes run
We need another set of autumns done come
Your mind's fallen back to where you're nothing at all
A preferable place to being left all alone
Let's call it a home
Washed down, a memory trapped up in my heart, everyone knows the place
Forgot and kicked out the bed like in my heart, everyone knows a place
More now I listen to love on the turnstile, a beautiful way to move
Chucked out and thrust in the wind like a pan pile, the sound of a stormy groove

The pretty one
03:54
|
|||
Faithful dogs and faceless rumours running wild
To stomach anymore could turn love into bile
Alaska sings, Alaska knows we're coming through
Ask me the question and I'll answer 42
I'm the pretty one, the one that charms your family
They'll never know that in the bag
A wishing well that'll raise down my enemies
Late at night the bed bugs bite
The smallest gest can turn and take all the sign posts and wine mosts
But a melody today can save us from their praise
The middle ages made us fall into a hole
Where doting agents crave the soup from neighbours bowl
Static roads and static moans we're coming through
Ask me the question and I'll tell you 42
I'm the pretty one, the one that charms your family
They'll never know that in the bag
A wishing well that'll raise down my enemies
Late at night the bed bugs bite
The smallest gest can turn and take all the sign posts and wine mosts
But a melody today can save us from their praise
Oh and a melody to stay can break us from this maze

If I had a moment of your time
Could I be free to help your world unwind
Assemble the seas that make us blind
A tomorrow that's true with every peace of mind
I know what you want, a taste a promise of some truth
It's easier it seems to laugh alone than it is with you
Make it in the morning, shake it in the night
Bounce a weary sorrow alright
Take it up to market, watch them as they bite
Never miss a bottle in sight
Serves the devils right!
If I had to wander all my life
I'd see it all through until the morning light
As soon as it's done no need to fight
The later it be the later we're due to find

Satellite
04:32
|
|||
In a statement or redaction, I could feel my spirit die
So I climbed up to the basement where the buildings seem less high
In a failing there's a lesson where emotions used to breath
But the old's been taken over, give it space and harmony
Step to, the theories out, my world is filled with passion
I've loved, I've had my doubts and I've abused my rations
Sowing oats is a mystery to me
I live what I love and I love what comes to me
I stood on a satellite
I stood on a satellite, baby
I stood on a satellite with you
Should you fall into a river, in a coma or a creek
You'll be led towards the ocean where it's vast and indiscrete
Have you risked your life for romance, have you had your eaten cake
Will you wring my neck in public, will you ring me by mistake?

Bricks
02:56
|
|||
Lifeless you do seem, a tiger in the night now a lamb
Contented in your dreams, where everything will sit as it stands
Bricks come falling (up they're calling)
Out for honoured space
Tactful peasants (open presents)
Bound to smash your face
Lactating from the eyes you're coming to
Singing hit me with another one
Backed into a corner screaming truths
We're better when we're never wrong
Séparable et têtu, la branche se tient idem pour les baies
C'est pas grave s'ils te tuent
C'est là où tu te baignes en béret

Pockets lined with someone's self esteem, a few old business cards aswell
Sixteen cigarettes all wet from tears, a piccolo and two front teeth
A light-up globe with nine volt batteries missing Taiwan, Ireland and Japan
A set of cutlery from somewhere near Seville polished by a thousand souls now dead
In the pockets you'll find crevices and in the crevices some holes
And in the holes you'll find an opening and in the opening a light

A line through your eyes, the elements dine in surprise with benefits few, and so we start up anew
In the back of your mind it's understood, there's nothing in life like a flower in bloom lazing under the moon
Without pity, they play with your heart and move around like poets dance with the stars
A thing to sit and bath in the dark, beauty on replay
Hold fast and fly me away (it's missing down in Stockholm)
Oysters and lukewarm champagne (the golden shine of envy)
Refresh and disown the past (it's better than the other ones)
Beneath a motor sparks (like love we need little oil)
I've read all the signs - indicative - how can it be wise to pickle it here, we're stationed it's clear
But in the back of your head you're wondering that if I was dead, who's watering my, my tulips and thyme
Without pity, they play with your heart and move around like poets dance with the stars
A thing to sit and bath in the dark, beauty on replay
Hold fast and fly me away (the dogs are out in Saint-Brieuc)
Oysters and lukewarm champagne (the locks so fine and empty)
Refresh and disown the past (much longer than the faster ones)
Beneath a motor sparks (like love we need little oil)

Burning desire
02:39
|
|||
Walk back in my direction
I found a new kind of invention
The best thing since I cut the flowers
Smooth like gold and soft like ivory
And a smell, that of burning
Of burning desire
Think back to a world that opened
Everything to the old and broken
A sapphire bold and seldom chosen
An incarnate of the good and golden
And a smell, that of burning
Of burning desire
We need nothing, we need it all
Believe me honey we are bound to fall
You can take my money
You can take my soul
Believe me honey they can take us all
Think back to a world that opened
Everything to the old and broken
The best thing since I cut the flowers
Smooth like gold and soft like ivory
And a smell, that of burning
Of burning desire

Everybody wants one now
05:12
|
|||
Strolling through the city in the darkness
Eyeing everybody with a fondness
How can anything be built on falseness
Everybody wants one now
If every other minute there's a star born
Could happiness be made into a lifeform
And if we ate it could we have our minds torn
Everybody wants one now
Now let's about our merry business
While tempers cool, a story checks it's fitness
Now we have a darling called a witness
Everybody wants one now
