Appetite
03:42
|

Cold was the city
Cold were the people
Skinny were the Indie girls
Drunk were the regulars
The night Gilly was stabbed in the pub
The songs on the jukebox
Were mainly about having fun
And I, I had a hunger for love
But you ruined my appetite
The punks in their camouflage trousers
The goths with their pale vacant faces
The broken pint glasses under our feet
The broken young souls on the street

Take a Seat

Take a seat on the Circle Line
You've made when you were still
Yearning for days in the light you were
The best in the business of fraud were there
Take a step further into the crowd that
You've been running from
When you still had dignity
Robbed your own faith of its virginity
After you will stop pretending that your wish for a life
Is a childish one, you owe him one
Then will come the understanding
That in fact, as I found, You've always been proud
Being lonesome and a coward
All them fuckers keep giving you numbers
Wish you could smash their heads down on the floor

The Junkie Violin Player
04:53
|

People tell me smile, Am I on candid camera?
The best sleep comes after sex, if I jack off will that still work?
I thought that people were out there for me
'Cause I decide what reality is
Alan liked his drink,
He drank so much he could barely stand
Then he fell down to the floor,
And lost his concienceness for a minute or more
You should see that girl, the junkie violin player, on the underground
Playing hits but it sounds like she's saying 'you want it? you'll get it!'
She looks like a guy

Some Help

Hey, are you having fun?
Wanna go outside? So we could talk?
Why not? I'm nice.
And I think I should be getting some help
From you.
Hey, are you having fun?

Man on The Floor
03:17
|
|||
Tired of playing the game
Do you think that I am,
Pushing the wrong the buttons?
I was fading again with the remains of a day
Was falling so very hard with the rain
And queue to the cash machine was blocking the street
We were keeping ourselves to ourselves
On the long 29
Living in harmony
Looking out through the window were two houses on fire
But we didn't want to be late for work so we trusted the rain
When I got off there was a man on the floor
The man
The man on the floor, just like before
Comes again to surprise me
Looks a bit dead
But I am glad
Nothing had happened
To me

Automatic Line
04:27
|

And there's no sign of rain
No sign of feeling
And our plates are all full
Our ash trays are full
In the land of not-giving
And the wide screens are on
And the colors are strong
And the senses are flooded
And people drive cars
And they like to move fast
And she's taking her clothes off
That's why I cannot think now
And the rat race is on
People harness themselves
To bigger houses
To beautiful wallets
And our bin bags are full
So we buy bigger ones
She's afraid to grow old now
Better not grow old now
And sex is what sells
Oh it's a wonderful world
And she's taking her clothes off, now she's naked
And that's why I cannot think now
Spent two hours on the phone
With the automatic line, automatic line
Press 1 to feel a thing, full satisfaction guaranteed
Or your money back
Choose one number between 1 and 10
1 is hell and 10 is bliss
one one one one one one one
I still can't feel anything
No signs of rain, no signs of rain
No no no

Lil' Robert
04:52
|

Men and gentle ladies please pay attention
It is with pride and good intentions
That I introduce you to my own invention
Can you believe in something you cannot see?
Can you not see he's standing next to me?
Put your hands together for the invisible boy!
Seventeen years of absolute transparency
Being ignored became his legacy
You're staring at me but he's there with you
In the crowd
Give them a good scare lil' Robert
Make your daddy proud
For all the kids in school he's just an empty chair
Impossible to miss, why would they care
But little did they know, my lil' Robert was sitting there
But Robert wants to be seen in all his glory
When telling your sweet daughters his late night story
Now come on little girls make love to the wind
This sensual breeze is your classmate honey
I doubt your parents will find this funny
See, he's my creation, invention, my victim, my child
Where have you gone lil' Robert?
Don't Leave your papa behind

Frozen Lake
03:16
|
|||
Somewhere frozen lake of true wonder
Somewhere there are we
Skate there you are floating in my arms
We never dared to be
Out of touch
The world do not exist anymore
The ice so fragile under our feet
Evening TV dinner for two
How we cannot speak
Upstairs hiding deep in the cupboard
Two pairs of dusty skates
Out of touch
The world is the only thing we know
I put my hand in your hand
