Good work if you can get it
Good work if you can get it
Good work if you can get it

Rock boy is genital sack juice mad
His delicious apparatus would flutter and tremble after pubic worship
He would freeze it in a jar and sell it to celebrity lesbians

Good work if you can get it
Good work if you can get it
Good work if you can get it
Good work if you can get it

They wanna buy it in kilos
They wanna buy it in grams
They wanna buy it in kilos
They wanna buy it in grams
You know they're down with the metric system
And they never fuck around

They wanna buy it in kilos
They wanna buy it in grams
You know they're down with the metric system
And they're payin' by the pound

Stuck between the do or die,
I feel emaciated.
Hard to breathe I try and try,
I'll get asphyxiated.
Swinging from the tallest height,
with nothing left to hold on to.
Every sky is blue,
but not for me and you.

Come home,
come home,
come home,
come home.

Glass and petrol vodka gin,
it feels like breathing methane.
Throw yourself from skin to skin,
and still it doesn't dull the pain.
Vanish like a lipstick trace,
it always blows me away.
Every cloud is grey,
with dreams of yesterday.

Come home,
come home,
come home,
come home,
come home,
come home,
come home,
come home.

Always goes against the grain,
and I can try and deny it Give a monkey half a brain,
and still he's bound to fry it.
Now the happening scene is dead,
I used to want to be there too.
Every sky is blue,
but not for me and you.

Come home,
come home,
come home,
come home,
come home,
come home,
come home,
come home

Sucker love is heaven sent
You pucker up
our passion's spent
My heart's a tart
your body's rent
My body's broken
yours is bent

Carve your name into my arm
Instead of stressed
I lie here charmed
Cuz there's nothing else to do
Every me and every you

Sucker love a box I choose
No other box I choose to use
Another love I would abuse
No circumstances could excuse

In the shape of things to come
Too much poison come undone
Cuz there's nothing else to do
Every me and every you
Every me and every you
Every me...

Sucker love is known to swing
Prone to cling
and waste these thing
Pucker up for heaven's sake
There's never been so much at stake

I serve my head up on a plate
It's only comfort, calling late
Cuz there's nothing else to do
Every me and every you
Every me and every you
Every me

Every me and every you
Every me...

Like the naked leads the blind
I know I'm selfish, I'm unkind
Sucker love I always find
Someone to bruise and leave behind

All alone in space and time
There's nothing here
but what here's mine
Something borrowed, something blue
Every me and every you
Every me and every you
Every me...

Any means in your horizon
Heaven in a tourniquet
The after life to keep your eyes on
bitter pill you take you take today
With expert levitation forward,
polished to the nth degree,
it takes it's smile from every children,
you take the beating.

Any means in your horizon
Every mink walks two by two,
we gamble to be born again
You know I never wanted to
With expert levitation forward,
polished to the nth degree,
it takes it's smile from every children,
you take the beating.

The light divining,
the light defining,
the light divining,
the light dividing.

Don't let me down,
let me-he,
let me down,
don't let me,
don't let me down,
let me-he,
let me down,
let me. [Repeat once]

The light divining,
the light defining,
the light divining,
the light deviding

come back to me a while
change your style again
come back to me a while
change your taste in men
it's been this way since Christmas day
dazzled, doused in gin
I'm killing time on Valentine's
waiting for the day to end
change your taste in men

Run away from all your boredom
Run away from all your whoredom and wave
Your worries, and cares, goodbye
All it takes is one decision
A lot of guts, a little vision to wave
Your worries, and cares goodbye

It's a maze for rats to try (x2)
It's a race, a race for rats
A race for rats to die
It's a race, a race for rats
A race for rats to die

Sick and tired of Maggie's farm
She's a bitch, with broken arms to wave
Your worries, and cares, goodbye

It's a maze for rats to try (x2)
It's a race, a race for rats
A race for rats to die
It's a race, a race for rats
A race for rats to die (x3)
Burn away
Run away (repeat)

I hold an image of the ashtray girl
As the cigarette burns on my chest
I wrote a poem
that described her world
That put my friendship to the test
And late at night
Whilst on all fours
She used to watch me kiss the floor
What's wrong with this picture
What's wrong with this picture
Farewell the ashtray girl
Forbidden snowflake
Beware this troubled world
Watch out for earthquakes
Goodbye to open sores
To broken centre floor
We know we miss her
We miss her picture
Sometimes it's faded
Disintegrated
For fear of growing old
Sometimes it's faded
Assassinated
For fear of growing old
Farewell the ashtray girl
Angelic fruitcake
Beware this troubled world
Control your intake
Goodbye to open sores
Goodbye and furthermore
We know we miss her
We miss her picture
Sometimes it's faded
Disintegrated
For fear of growing old
Sometimes it's faded
Assassinated
For fear of growing old
Hang on
Though we try
It's gone
Hang on
Though we try
It's gone
Sometimes it's faded
Disintegrated
For fear of growing old
Sometimes it's faded
Assassinated
For fear of growing old
Can't stop growing old
Can't stop growing old
Can't stop growing old
Can't stop growing old
Can't stop growing old

The sea's evaporated
Though it comes as no surprise
These clouds we're seeing
Their explosions in the sky
It seems it's written
But we can't read between the line

Hush
It's okay
Dry your eye
Dry your eye
Soulmate dry your eye
Dry your eye
Soulmate dry your eye
Cause soulmates never die

This one world vision
Turns us in to compromise
What good's religion
When it's each other we despise
Damn the government
Damn the killing
Damn the lies

Hush
It's okay
Dry your eyes
Dry your eyes
Soulmate dry your eyes
Dry your eyes
Soulmate dry your eyes
Cause soulmates never die

Soulmates never die
Never die
Soulmates never die
Never die...
Soulmates never die
Soulmates never die
Soulmates never die
Soulmates never die

Since we're feeling so anesthetised
In our comfort zone
Reminds me of the second time
That I followed you home
We're running out of alibis
From the second of May
Reminds me of the summer time
On this winter's day

See you at the bitter end

See you at the bitter end
Every step we
take that's synchronized
Every broken bone
Reminds me of the second time
That I followed you home
You shower me with lullabies
As you're walking away
Reminds me that it's killing time
On this fateful day

See you at the bitter end

See you at the bitter end

See you at the bitter end

See you at the bitter end
From the time we intercepted
Feels more like suicide
See you at the bitter end

See you at the bitter end

See you at the bitter end

It seems we're here I
Miss you something rotten
The stinks are here
It's guaranteed all's forgotten
Down here
Down here it's clear that your uncut
Don't fear
Don't fear, keep all this forgotten
Face down
Face down
Face down, I miss you something rotten
Face down
Face down, this crown is broken rotten

Down here, down here, I know its not, it's all forgotten
Down here, down here, face down, I miss you something rotten
Down here, down here, it stinks, it stinks of something rotten
Don't fear, don't fear, keep all this forgotten
There's something rotten down here
There's something rotten down here
There's something rotten down here
There's something rotten down here...

Beauty lies inside the eye
of another youthful dream
That doesn't sell it's
soul for self esteem
That's not plasticine
Beauty lies inside desire
and every way ward heart redeemed
That doesn't sell
it's soul for self esteem
That's not plasticine
Don't forget to be the way you are
Don't forget to be the way you are
Don't forget to be the way you are
Don't forget to be the way you are
The only thing you can rely on
is that you can't rely on anything
Don't go and sell your
soul for self esteem
Don't be plasticine
Don't forget to be the way you are
Don't forget to be the way you are
Don't forget to be the way you are
Don't forget to be the way you are

Don't forget to be the way you are
Don't forget to be the way you are
Don't forget to be the way you are
Don't forget to be the way you are
The way you are The way you are
The way you are The way you are

Remember me when you're the
one who's silver screen
Remember me when you're the
one you always dreamed
Remember me when everyone's
noses start to bleed
Remember me special needs
Just 19 and sucker's dream
I guess I thought you had the
flavour Just 19 and dream obscene
with six months off for bad
behaviour Remember me when you
clinch your movie deal
And think of me stuck in my
chair that has four wheels
Remember me through flash
photography and screams
Remember me special dreams
Just 19 this sucker's dream
I guess I thought you had the
flavour Just 19 and dream obscene
with six months off for bad
behaviour Just 19 and sucker's dream
I guess I thought you had the
flavour Just 19 and dream obscene
with six months off for bad
behaviour Remember me Remember me

Just 19 this sucker's dream
I guess I thought you had the
flavour Just 19 and dream obscene
with six months off for bad
behaviour Just 19 and sucker's dream
I guess I thought you had the
flavour Just 19 and dream obscene
with six months off for bad
behaviour Remember me Remember me
