What lyrics are you listening to now? (pt2)

[tufty79]

Oh
well I just don't know
how you could go
without permission

'Cause well,
if you're not there
well i just don't care
for this omission

Every moment brings me down
when you're not around
but all i'm asking for
is come back for just one day

So
where did you go?
and do you now know
how to be happy?

'Cause here
well it's pretty clear
when you're not near me
i am unhappy

Every moment brings me down
when you're not around
but all i'm asking for
is come back for just one day

I'll make it worth the while
just to see your smile
that's all i'm asking for

Oh
I've come to know
you had to go
without permission

'Cause it was how
how i wore you down
and how i dragged you 'round
my sore ambition

Every moment brings me down
when you're not around
but all i'm asking for
is come back for just one day

I'll make it worth the while
just to see your smile
that's all i'm asking for
my dear

She wakes up in the morning; the sun is shining in her face
She turns her head around; she shares the blanket on which the love embraced
She looks out of the window; it's a lovely day outside
She tells herself that things are fine, he pulls the sheets to cover his eyes
The essence of the fresh air, that garden held the love affair
Thinking back their minds are torn in muddle and confusion
So far away another sits, who tries to make the best of it
He don't know quite what's hit him, it's another love illusion
He gazes in his empty room eyes fixed upon her picture
The loneliness, dejectedness, God how the fuck he's missed her
His eyes turn turn to the window, the military roar by
He wonders how much hatred could evolve out of the sky
What God had done for peace on earth, what man destroyed from day of birth
They are concerned with feelings; they're just ashamed to cry
And one mans plan to push the button makes other sacrifice
The serenade is dead and now the only question's why?
Why when we are young, we're told it's right to love
Told it's human nature and that comes from God above
As time moves on we realise that we all look from the pit
While a plan hangs above us, to keep us in the shit
Because the minute we are born, we're told what's right and wrong
Raised with certain morals, never mentioned in their songs
As we grow up, we find out that the paths been neatly set
In a world of such destruction, we only can regret
Regret that is the word of it, as we look for our way out of it
Why can't they understand we don't want any part of it?
The pain they create everyday, that just ain't gonna go away
We've got to stick together, but still you're asking why?
The system stands strong, as our movement starts to crumble
The pressure we once held, has just turned into a rumble
They've got us where they want us, and you all just accept that
Well don't you think its time; we started to hit back
They are the enemy; they want a rope around your neck
And if they will go that far, then what the fuck is next?
Forget the revolution, we've heard it all before
Heard all of the promises of nineteen-eighty-four
Its an impossible task, "oh yes", it stands before us all
Well maybe you'll believe it when your back's against the wall

Jolene, jolene, jolene, jolene
Im begging of you please dont take my man
Jolene, jolene, jolene, jolene
Please dont take him just because you can
Your beauty is beyond compare
With flaming locks of auburn hair
With ivory skin and eyes of emerald green
Your smile is like a breath of spring
Your voice is soft like summer rain
And I cannot compete with you, jolene

He talks about you in his sleep
Theres nothing I can do to keep
From crying when he calls your name, jolene

And I can easily understand
How you could easily take my man
But you dont know what he means to me, jolene

Jolene, jolene, jolene, jolene
Im begging of you please dont take my man
Jolene, jolene, jolene, jolene
Please dont take him just because you can

You could have your choice of men
But I could never love again
Hes the only one for me, jolene

I had to have this talk with you
My happiness depends on you
And whatever you decide to do, jolene

Jolene, jolene, jolene, jolene
Im begging of you please dont take my man
Jolene, jolene, jolene, jolene
Please dont take him even though you can
Jolene, jolene

On my feet I stand tonight
Stand and step up to the light
An extraordinary man
Unbroken in a breaking light

Forever after days
Stand and make myself a crown
To the table I step alone
Hold my own above the ground

Take my shot under the light
Heroes come the common way
Pull myself into the sky
Wrap me in the banner I made

On my feet I stand tonight
Stand alone inside the air
An extraordinary man
Everything stops and holds me there

Forever after days
Stand and make myself a crown
To the table I step alone
And hold my own above the ground

Take my shot under the light
Heroes come the common way
Pull myself into the sky
Wrap me in the banner I made

Forever after days
Stand and make myself a crown
To the table I step alone
And hold my own above the ground

Take my shot under the light
Heroes come the common way
Pull myself into the sky
Wrap me in the banner I made

 

[tufty79]

Standing at the punch table, swallowing punch,
Can't pay attention to the sound of anyone,
A little more scared, a little more stupid, every minute more unprepared,
Made a mistake in my life today,
Everything I love gets lost in drawers,
I wanna start over, I wanna be winning, way out of sync from the beginning.

It's easier than this, it's easier than this,
Everything you say has water under it,
Somebody bring me the head of a love song
Somebody bring me the head of a lie,
Wanna be a blank slate, wanna wear a white cape,
Wanna tackle young girls off their beautiful boyfriends.

Looking for somewhere to stand and stare,
I leaned on the wall and the wall leaned away,
Can I get a minute of not being nervous and not thinking of my dick?
My leg turns to sparkles, my leg turns to pins,
I better get my shit together, I better gather my shit in,
You can drive a car through my head in five minutes from one side of it to the other.

So c'mon now, don't make me cry,
Everything you say has water under it,
It's easier than this, it's easier than this,
Everything you say has water under it,
Wanna bring me the head of a love song
Wanna bring me the head of a love song
Wanna be a blank slate, wanna wear a white cape,
Wanna tackle young girls off their beautiful boyfriends.
No i couldnt get ahead in a love song?
Gonna be a blank slate, gonna wear a white cape,
Don't over-do it.

What do I do now?
Don't over-do it.

What do I do now?
Don't over-do it.

What do I do now?
Don't over-do it.

What do I do now?
Don't over-do it.

Tonight down here in the valley
Im lonesome and o how I feel
As I sit here alone in my cabin
I can see your mansion on the hill

Do you recall when we parted
The story to me you revealed
You said you could live without loving
In your loveless mansion on the hill

Ive waited all through the years love
To give you a heart true and real
Cause I know youre living in sorrow
In your loveless mansion on the hill

The light shine bright from yer window
The trees stand so silent and still
I know youre alone with your pride dear
In your loveless mansion on the hill

 

[tufty79]

Stay out super late tonight
picking apples, making pies
put a little something in our lemonade and take it with us
we’re half-awake in a fake empire
we’re half-awake in a fake empire

Tiptoe through our shiny city
with our diamond slippers on
do our gay ballet on ice
bluebirds on our shoulders
we’re half-awake in a fake empire
we’re half-awake in a fake empire

Turn the light out say goodnight
no thinking for a little while
lets not try to figure out everything at once
It’s hard to keep track of you falling through the sky
we’re half-awake in a fake empire
we’re half-awake in a fake empire

the kiss of two lovers, broken only by dawn

 

[DaRealSpoon]

if you want to come on down
down with your bones so white
and watch the freight trains pound
into the wild, wild night

how i would love to gnaw
gnaw on your bones so white
and watch while the freight trains paw
paw at the wild, wild night

all these ghost towns, wreathed in old loam
assateague knee-deep in seafoam
ho swansea! buttonwillow!
lagunitas! ho calico!

and all these beastly bungalows
stare, distend, like endless toads
endlessly hop down the road
borne by wind, we southward blow

and yonder, wild and blue
the wild blue yonder looms
till we are wracked with rheum
by roads, by songs entombed

and all we want to do
is chew, and chew, and chew!
dear one, drive on
when all we want to do
is chew, and chew, and chew

and if you want to come on down
down with your bones so white
watch while the freight trains pound
into the wild, wild night

how i would love to gnaw
to gnaw on your bones so white
and watch while the freight trains paw
paw at the wild, wild night

 

[tufty79]

I found her on a night of fire and noise
Wild bells rang in a wild sky
I knew from that moment on
I'll love her till the day that I died
And I kissed away a thousand tears
My lady of the Various Sorrows
Some begged, some borowed, some stolen
Some kept safe for tomorrow
On and endless night, silver star spangled
The bells from the chapel went jingle-jangle


Do you love me? Do you love me?
Do you love me? Do you love me?
Do you love me? Do you love me?
Do you love me? Like I love you?


She was given to me to put things right
And I stacked all my accomplishments beside her
Still I seemed so obselete and small
I found God and all His devils inside her
In my bed she cast the blizzard out
A mock sun blazed upon her head
So completely filled with light she was
Her shadow fanged and hairy and mad
Our love-lines grew hopelessly tangled
And the bells from the chapel went jingle-jangle


Do you love me? Do you love me?
Do you love me? Do you love me?
Do you love me? Do you love me?
Do you love me? Like I love you?


She had a heartful of love and devotion
She had a mindful of tyranny and terror
Well, I try, I do, I really try
But I just err, baby, I do, I error
So come find me, my darling one
I'm down to the grounds, the very dregs
Ah, here she comes, blocking the sun
Blood running down the inside of her legs
The moon in the sky is battered and mangled
bAnd the bells from the chapel go jingle-jangle


Do you love me? Do you love me?
Do you love me? Do you love me?
Do you love me? Do you love me?
Do you love me? Like I love you?


All things move toward their end
I knew before I met her that I would lose her
I swear I made every effort to be good to her
I made every effort not to abuse her
Crazy bracelets on her wrists and her ankles
And the bells from the chapel go jingle-jangle


Do you love me? Do you love me?
Do you love me? Do you love me?
Do you love me? Do you love me?
Do you love me? Like I love you?

 

[tufty79]

I'll search the holy books
I'll try to unravel the mystery of Jesus Christ the Saviour
I read the poets and the analysts
Searched through the books on human behaviour

I've traveled this world round
For an answer that refused to be found
I don't know why, and i don't know how
But she's nobody's baby now..

I loved her then, and i guess i love her still
Hers is the face i see when a certain mood moves me
She lives in my blood and skin

Her wild feral stare, her dark hair
Her little lips, as cold as stone
Yeah, i was her man

But there are some things love won't allow
I held her hand, but i don't hold it now
I don't know why, and i don't know how
But she's nobody's baby now..

This is her dress, i loved best
With the blue quilted violets across the breast
And these are my many letters
Torn to pieces by long-fingered hands
I was her cruel-hearted man

And though I try to lay her ghost down
But she's moving through me even now
I don't know why, and i don't know how
But she's nobody's baby now..
She's nobody's baby now
Nobody's baby now

There's a devil waiting outside your door
(How much longer?)
There's a devil waiting outside your door
It is bucking and braying and pawing at the floor
And he's howling with pain and crawling up the walls
There's a devil waiting outside your door
He's weak with evil and broken by the world
He's shouting your name and he's asking for more
There's a devil waiting outside your door


Loverman! Since the world began
Forever, Amen Till end of time Take off that
dress I'm coming down I'm your loverman
Cause I am what I am what I am what I am


L is for LOVE, baby
O is for ONLY you that I do
V is for loving VIRTUALLY all that you are
E is for loving almost EVERYTHING that you do
R is for RAPE me
M is for MURDER me
A is for ANSWERING all of my prayers
N is for KNOWING your loverman's going to
be the answer to all of yours


Loverman! Till the bitter end
While empires burn down Forever and ever
and ever and ever Amen I'm your loverman
So help me, baby So help me
Cause I am what I am what I am what I am
I'll be your loverman!


There's a devil crawling along your floor
There's a devil crawling along your floor
With a trembling heart, he's coming through your door
With his straining sex in his jumping paw
There's a devil crawling along your floor
And he's old and he's stupid and
he's hungry and he's sore
And he's lame and he's blind
and he's dirty and he's poor
Give him more
There's a devil crawling along your floor


Loverman! Here I stand Forever, Amen
Cause I am what I am what I am what I am
Forgive me, baby My hands are tied
And I got no choice No, I got no choice at all


I'll say it again
L is for LOVE, baby
O is for O yes I do
V is for VIRTUE, so I ain't gonna hurt you
E is for EVEN if you want me to
R is for RENDER unto me, baby
M is for that which is MINE
A is for ANY old how, darling
N is for ANY old time


I'll be your loverman! I got a masterplan
To take off your dress And be your man
Seize the throne Seize the mantle
Seize the crown Cause I am what I am
What I am what I am I'm your loverman!


There's a devil lying by your side
You might think he's asleep
but look at his eyes
He wants you, baby, to be his bride
There's a devil lying by your side


Loverman! Loverman!

cheers for the reminder, upsidedownwalrus..

If I walk down this hallway, tonight,
It's too quiet,
So I Pad through the dark
and call you on the phone
Push your old numbers
and let your house ring
til I wake you ghost.
Let him walk down your hallway
it's not this quiet
slide down your receiver
sprint across the wire
follow my number
slide into my hand.

It's the blaze across my nightgown
it's the phone's ring.

I think last night
you were driving circles around me.

I can't drink this coffee
til I put you in my closet
let him shoot me down
let him call me off
I take it from his whisper
you're not that tough.

 

[Rollem]

Do you remember a guy thats been
In such an early song
Ive heard a rumour from ground control
Oh no, dont say its true

They got a message from the action man
Im happy, hope youre happy too
Ive loved all Ive needed love
Sordid details following

The shrieking of nothing is killing
Just pictures of jap girls in synthesis and i
Aint got no money and I aint got no hair
But Im hoping to kick but the planet its glowing

Ashes to ashes, funk to funky
We know major toms a junkie
Strung out in heavens high
Hitting an all-time low

Time and again I tell myself
Ill stay clean tonight
But the little green wheels are following me
Oh no, not again
Im stuck with a valuable friend
Im happy, hope youre happy too
One flash of light but no smoking pistol

I never done good things
I never done bad things
I never did anything out of the blue, woh-o-oh
Want an axe to break the ice
Wanna come down right now

Ashes to ashes, funk to funky
We know major toms a junkie
Strung out in heavens high
Hitting an all-time low

My mother said to get things done
Youd better not mess with major tom
My mother said to get things done
Youd better not mess with major tom
My mother said to get things done
Youd better not mess with major tom
My mother said to get things done
Youd better not mess with major tom

Travelling north, travelling north to find you
Train wheels beating, the wind in my eyes
Don't even know what I'll find when I get to you
Call out your name love, don't be surprised


It's so many miles and so long since I've left you
Don't even know what I'll find when I get to you
But suddenly now, I know where I belong
It's many hundred miles and it won't be long


Nothing at all, in my head, to say to you
Only the beat of the train I'm on
Nothing I've learned all my life on the way to you
One day our love was over and gone


It's so many miles and so long since I've met you
Don't even know what I'll say when I get to you
But suddenly now, I know where I belong
It's many hundred miles and it won't be long


What will I do if there's someone there with you
Maybe someone you've always known
How do I know I can come and give to you
Love with no warning and find you alone

It's so many miles and so long since I've met you
Don't even know what I'll find when I get to you
But suddenly now, I know where I belong
It's many hundred miles and it won't be long

It won't be long
It won't be long
It won't be long

deep blue sea darlin

and it was mamma that got
drowned in out in that deep blue sea

dig his grave darlin with a

dig his grave darlin with a

and it was brother that got
drowned in out in that deep blue sea

drop him down darlin
with a golden chain
drop him down darlin

and it was daddy that got

found the tab for this earlier : beware brixton, the guitar's coming out this afternoon

I know you're a serious lady
Living off a teacup full of cherries
Nobody knows where you are living
Nobody knows where you are

Take a bath and get high through an apple
Wanted to cry but you can't when your laughing
Nobody knows where you are living
Nobody knows where you are

You're so far around the bend
You're so far around the bend

I'll run through a thousand parties
I'll run through a million bars
Nobody knows where you are living
Nobody knows where you are

You've been humming and I think it's forever
Praying for pavement to get back together
Nobody knows where you are living
Nobody knows where you are

You're so far around the bend
You're so far around the bend

There is no leaving New York
There is no leaving New York

There is no leaving New York
There is no leaving New York

There is no leaving New York
There is no leaving New York

 

[tufty79]

So, you're wishing that you never did all the embarrassing things you done?
And you wishing you could set it right, and you wishing you could stay the night.
But there I go again. Wishing never solved a problem.

If you wanna get big time, go ahead and get, get big time
Ah, ah...
Oh, give and give and give it, until you just can't give no more.
Ah, ah...

was young when i left home
and i've been all around and 'round
and i've never wrote a letter to my home
to my home, lord, lord, lord,
i never wrote a letter to my home

and just the other day i was bringing home my pain
when i met an old friend i used to know
said your mother's dead and gone
and your baby sister's all gone wrong
and your daddy needs you home right away
not a shirt on my back, not a penny to my name
but i can't go home this way
this way, lord, lord, this way
but i can't go home this way

if you miss the train i'm on, count the days and i'm gone
you will hear the whistle blow a hundred miles
a hundred miles, lord, lord, lord
and you'll hear that whistle blow a hundred miles
...
when i pay the debt i owe
to the promise i restored
i'll put on my watch and chain and go home
go home, lord, lord, lord
i'll put on my watch and chain and go home

i used to tell my ma sometimes
when i see them riding blind
gonna make me a home right in the wind
in the wind, lord, lord, in the wind
gonne make me a home out in the wind
i don't like it in the wind
i'd go back home again
but i can't go home this way
this way, lord, oh this way
no, i can't go home this way

i was young when i left home
and i've been all around and 'round
and i've never wrote a letter to my home
to my home, lord, lord, lord
i never wrote a letter to my home

Oh, father why are you so sad
On this bright Easter morn’
When Irish men are proud and glad
Of the land that they were born?
Oh, son, I see in mem’ries few
Of far off distant days
When being just a lad like you
I joined the IRA.

Where are the lads that stood with me
When history was made?
A Ghra Mo Chroi, I long to see
The boys of the old brigade.

From hills and farms a call to arms
Was heard by one and all.
And from the glen came brave young men
To answer Ireland’s call.
‘T wasn’t long ago we faced a foe,
The old brigade and me,
And by my side they fought and died
That Ireland might be free.

Where are the lads that stood with me
When history was made?
A Ghra Mo Chroi, I long to see
The boys of the old brigade.

And now, my boy, I’ve told you why
On Easter morn’ I sigh,
For I recall my comrades all
And dark old days gone by.
I think of men who fought in glen
With rifle and grenade.
May heaven keep the men who sleep
From the ranks of the old brigade.

Where are the lads that stood with me
When history was made?
A Ghra Mo Chroi, I long to see
The boys of the old brigade.

 

[tufty79]

I thought I'd take a walk today
It's a mistake I sometimes make
My children lay asleep in bed
My wife lay wide-awake
I kissed her softly on the brow
I tried not to make a sound
But with stony eyes she looked at me
And gently squeezed my hand
Call it a premonition, call it a crazy vision
Call it intuition, something learned from mother
But when she looked up at me, I could clearly see
The Sword of Damocles hanging directly above her
Oh Lord Oh my Lord
Oh Lord
How have I offended thee?
Wrap your tender arms around me
Oh Lord Oh Lord
Oh My Lord

They called at me through the fence
They were not making any sense
They claimed that I had lost the plot
Kept saying that I was not
The man I used to be
They held their babes aloft
Threw marsh mellows at the Security
And said that I'd grown soft

Call it intuition, call it a creeping suspicion,
But their words of derision meant they hardly knew me
For even I could see in the way they looked at me
The Spear of Destiny sticking right through me
Oh Lord Oh my lord
Oh Lord
How have I offended thee?
Wrap your tender arms round me
Oh Lord Oh lord
Oh My Lord

Now l'm at the hairdressers
People watch me as they move past
A guy wearing plastic antlers
Presses his bum against the glass
Now l'm down on my hands and knees
And it's so fucking hot!
Someone cries, "What are you looking for?"
I scream, "The plot, the plot!"
I grab my telephone, I call my wife at home*
She screams, "Leave us alone!" I say, "Hey, it's only me"
The hairdresser with his scissors, he holds up the mirror
I look back and shiver; I can't even believe what I can see
Be mindful of the prayers you send
Pray hard but pray with care
For the tears that you are crying now
Are just your answered prayers
The ladders of life that we scale merrily
Move mysteriously around
So that when you think you're climbing up, man
In fact you're climbing down
Into the hollows of glamour, where with spikes and hammer
With telescopic camera, they chose to turn the screw
Oh I hate them, Ma! Oh I hate them, Pa!
Oh I hate them all for what they went and done to you
Oh Lord Oh my Lord
Oh Lord
How have I offended thee?
Wrap your tender arms round me
Oh Lord Oh Lord
Oh My Lord

*almost as good as the 'brown cow' rhyming couplet in 'hallelujah'..

Here is the sound that photographs make
When I see them
When I hear them
I see regions of sharp precision
Over abundance
Over indulgence
Tied together with rope and twine
Stuck together with paste and glue
Two old planks of knotty pine
A couple of nails that poke right through.

Messenger of fear in sight
Dark deception kills the light

Hybrid children watch the sea
Pray for father, roaming free

Fearless wretch
Insanity
He watches
Lurking beneath the sea
Great old one
Forbidden site
He searches
Hunter of the shadows is rising
Immortal
In madness you dwell

Crawling chaos, underground
Cult has summoned, twisted sound

Out from ruins once possessed
Fallen city, living death

Fearless wretch
Insanity
He watches
Lurking beneath the sea
Timeless sleep
Has been upset
He awakens
Hunter of the shadows is rising
Immortal
In madness you dwell

Not dead which eternal lie
Stranger eons death may die

Drain you of your sanity
Face the thing that should not be

Fearless wretch
Insanity
He watches
Lurking beneath the sea
Great old one
Forbidden site
He searches
Hunter of the shadows is rising
Immortal
In madness you dwell.

World a reggae music on yah-eh
Keep me rocking with me daughter-eh-a
World a reggae music on yah-eh
Never lef' ya, never no sah-eh-a

Now just be nice and hold your space
I won't entertain no more disgrace
Out in the street the call it merther
when rhythm spacing out your head

World a reggae music on yah-eh
Keep me rocking with me daughter-eh-a
World a reggae music on yah-eh
Never lef' ya, never no sah-eh-a

Man showing how man feeling
Man singing goodness gracious I
Then thousand rydims peeling
It makes the spider kiss the fly

World a reggae music on yah-eh
Keep me rocking with me daughter-eh-a
World a reggae music on yah-eh
Lord I thirsty, give me water-eh-a

I've got a secret, I cannot say
Blame all the movement to give it away
You've got somethin, I understand
Holding it tightly, caught on command
Leap of faith, do you doubt?
Cut you in, I just cut you out

[chorus:]
Whatever you do
Don't tell anyone
Whatever you do
Don't tell anyone

Look for reflections, in your face
Canine devotion, time can't erase
Out on the corner, locked in your room
I never believe them and I never assume
Still can't believe there is a lie
Promise is promise, an eye for an eye
We've got something to reveal
No one can know how we feel

[repeat chorus 2x]

I think you already know
How far I'd go not to say
You know the art isn't gone
And I'm taking my song to the grave

[repeat chorus]

In comes the captain's daughter, the captain of the Yeos,
Saying, "Brave United man, we'll ne'er again be foes.
A thousand pounds I'll give you, and fly from home with thee
And dress myself in man's attire, and fight for liberty!"
We are the boys of Wexford, who fought with heart and hand
To burst in twain the galling chain, and free our native land!

"I want no gold, my maiden fair, to fly from home with thee;
Your shining eyes will be my prize - more dear then gold to me.
I want no gold to nerve my arm to do a true man's part
To free my land I'd gladly give the red drops from my heart."
We are the boys of Wexford, who fought with heart and hand
To burst in twain the galling chain, and free our native land!

And when we left our cabins, boys, we left with right good will,
To see our friends and neighbours that were at Vinegar Hill!
A young man from our ranks, a cannon he let go;
He slapt it into Lord Mountjoy - a tyrant he laid low!
We are the boys of Wexford, who fought with heart and hand
To burst in twain the galling chain, and free our native land!

We bravely fought and conquered at Ross, and Wexford town;
And, if we failed to keep them, 'twas drink that brought us down.
We had no drink beside us on Tubberneering's day,
Depending on the long bright pike, and well it worked its way!
We are the boys of Wexford, who fought with heart and hand
To burst in twain the galling chain, and free our native land!

They came into the country our blood to waste and spill;
But let them weep for Wexford, and think of Oulart Hill!
'Twas drink that still betrayed us - of them we had no fear;
For every man could do his part like Forth and Shelmalier!
We are the boys of Wexford, who fought with heart and hand
To burst the twain the galling chain, and free our native land!

My curse upon all drinking! It made our hearts full sore:
For bravery won each battle, but drink lost ever more.
And if, for want of leaders, we lost at Vinegar Hill,
We're ready for another fight, and love our country still!
We are the boys of Wexford, who fought with heart and hand
To burst in twain the galling chain, and free our native land!

We remember back in time in the year of '69
You unleashed your dogs of war onto our streets
We could not stand idly by and let our families die
We fought you back and joined the IRA

So stuff your fucking crown we Irish won't lie down
and give away our guns to foreign lands
No semtex not our guns will you ever get from us
You can stick your decommissioning up your arse

Well you murdered free young men and you'll do the same again
Decommissioning you will never ever see
As long as we have men like those famous fighting men
Yes those famous fighting men from Crossmaglen

So stuff your fucking crown we Irish won't lie down
and give away our guns to foreign lands
No semtex not our guns will you ever get from us
You can stick your decommissioning up your arse

In memory of the ten they were Ireland's bravest men
We will not forget the ones who fought and died
Decommissioning you can see will never ever be
'Cause the IRA will always be around

So stuff your fucking crown we Irish won't lie down
and give away our guns to foreign lands
No semtex not our guns will you ever get from us
You can stick your decommissioning up your arse

You can tell the RUC those black bastards from Drumcree
You'll never march down Garvaghy road
If you want to make a fight we will stand up for our rights
You can take your fucking march and give us peace

So stuff your fucking crown we Irish won't lie down
and give away our guns to foreign lands
No semtex not our guns will you ever get from us
You can stick your decommissioning up your arse

Now Trimble you're an ass if you think that it will last
Six counties are under tyranny
You can tell wee Tony Blair and Mo Mowlam if you dare
They can stick their decommissioning up their ass

So stuff your fucking crown we Irish won't lie down
and give away our guns to foreign lands
No semtex not our guns will you ever get from us
You can stick your decommissioning up your arse

You'd put me in the ground.
Your crime is always against me
Do you fear what I could be
I'm bigger than you'll ever be

You'd put me in the ground
Can't throw me away
You'd put me in the ground
Can't throw me away
You'd put me in the ground

I am what I must,
Would you bite me i'll I'm dust.
You're terrified
You're terrified of me

Question - Why would you kill me?
Answer - 'Cos I'd cut down your king tree
Question - Why do I frighten you ? Why do I frighten you ?
'Cos I'd cut down your king tree

You'd put me in the ground
Can't throw me away
You'd put me in the ground
Can't throw me away
You'd put me in the ground

I can speak so softly because I have so much power
Question
I can speak so softly because I have so much power
Question
I can speak so softly
Answer
Because I have so much power
I can speak so softly because I have so much power

A malady has taken him over
Coughing tar in his japanese motor
The lights are magic
And he feels lucky
And he's got money
Shoots like an arrow - oh

London loves
The mystery of a speeding car
London loves
The misery of a speeding heart

Its love u like, and everyone's at it
And words are cheap when the mind is elastic
He loves the violence
Keeps ticking over
So sleep together
Before today is sold forever

London loves
The way people just fall apart
London loves
The way you just don't stand a chance
London loves
The mystery of a speeding car

O-oh o-oh o-oh o-oh

London loves
The mystery of a speeding car
London loves
The misery of a speeding heart

London loves
The mystery

London loves
The way people just fall apart
London loves
The way we just don't stand a chance
London loves
A speeding heart

You know how to skweeze me Oh Oh you know how to pleeze me Oh Oh
you're learnin' it easy Oh Oh
And I thought you might like to know
when a girl's meaning yes, she says no.
You got rude talk you got one walk, all your jokes are blue
You've got long nails you tell tall tales, some you think are true

Chorus
And there's nowhere to go you won't go
If there's nowhere to run you go slow
If you move up to me then I'll show you the way
Then you'll know how to skweeze me Oh Oh
you know how to pleeze me Oh Oh
you're learnin' it easy Oh Oh
And I thought you'd might like to know
how to skweeze me Oh Oh
You know how to pleeze me Oh Oh
you're learnin' it easy Oh Oh
And I thought you might like to know
when a girl's meaning yes, she says no.

You got a sweet tongue you sing love songs,
Can't you learn to spell
take me back 'ome you got it all wrong
'Cos we sing that as well

Chorus

You know how to skweeze me Oh Oh You know how to pleeze me Oh Oh
you're learnin' it easy Oh Oh
And I thought you might like to know
How to skweeze me Oh Oh You know how to pleeze me Oh Oh
you're learnin' it easy Oh Oh
And I thought you might like to know
when a girl's meaning yes, she says no.

You know how to skweeze me Oh Oh You know how to pleeze me Oh Oh
you're learnin' it easy Oh Oh
And I thought you might like to know

How to skweeze me Oh Oh You know how to pleeze me Oh Oh
you're learnin' it easy Oh Oh
And I thought you might like to know
