Wait for the Blackout Lyrics
6 ContributorsWait for the Blackout LyricsDon't you ask me to come out
When the sun does shine
Better stay here with curtains drawn
In darkness you'll be mine
(chorus)
Let's wait for the blackout
The light is too bright
Let's wait for the blackout
Wait for the night
Well welcome to my basement flat
No windows to see through
With darkness closing in my friend
We both know what to do
Repeat chorus
Come lay with me upon the earth
That keeps us both alive
No living thing has lasted here
Yet we shall both survive
Repeat chorus
In darkness there is no sin
Light only brings the fear
Nothing to corrupt the eyes
There is no vision here
At first you may find it strange
But do not go away
The darkness holds the power
That you won't find in the day
There is no vision here
There is no vision here
Silly Kids Games Lyrics
6 ContributorsSilly Kids Games LyricsI just want my fortune now
I don't care where or when or how
I don't want the dustbIn or a cuddly toy
I'm going for the jackpot
Boy oh boy oh boy
Chorus :
See me on the box
See me winning lots of loot oh yeah
Silly kids games grabbing cash
Off that old coot oh yeah
Now I've got the replies to all the questions
There's just on thing that I should mention
When I win all the loot don't you have no fear
I'm gonna take my hols in Kampuchea,yeah
(repeat chorus)
And it's been a pleasure
Thanks a million
I hope you liked the show
La la la la la la la
La la la la la la laaaaa laaaaa
Drinking About My Baby Lyrics
6 ContributorsDrinking About My Baby LyricsI was yours and you were mine
We were together all the time
We had sun and happy days
Living together in our lazy ways
Chorus :
Drinking about my baby
Drinking about her all the time
Drinking about my baby
Drinking about her all the time
I was so happy to see you
You're so clever to find
I don't want to leave you
You're my special someone
Repeat chorus
(solo)
I can see just where i am
Sitting in a lonely bar
One armed bandits,friends of yours
Keep asking where you are
Drinking and thinking and drinking woh oh
Repeat to fade
Twisted Nerve Lyrics
4 ContributorsTwisted Nerve LyricsI hear cries and whispers in the night
But I know that I was in the right
Hear footsteps echo behind me as I walk
People listening when I talk
No room for error, no room for mistakes
No time for friends it's for your own sake
It's for your own sake
Go to the window and what do I see?
Killer's face looking at me
Go to the window and what do I see?
No room for feelings
Careless talk costs lives
Cold as the cold war front
The red star life
I see faces when there's no-one there
Memories that I don't need to share
No room for error, no room for mistakes
No time for friends it's for your own sake
It's for your own sake
Go to the window and what do I see?
Killer's face looking at me
Go to the window and what do I see?
Go to the window
What do I see?
Go to the window
The killer is me
It's me
It's me
Twist and turn, twist and turn, twist and turn, twist and turn, twist and turn
History of the World, Part 1 Lyrics
9 ContributorsHistory Of The World Part 1 LyricsI just hit the ground, boy have I arrived
Tell the dinosaurs, they just won't survive
So I fell, and you just laughed
You think that I can't stand
To see me trip this way
You think I'm second hand
I have seen it all, she's the only one
She belongs to me, I'm the lonely one
Counting sheep and swatting flies
You think there's no more left
Talk is cheap, how many lies
Sustain a single breath?
Adam chance and zorro
Take them with a pinch of salt
Sad about tomorrow
Sorry, but it's not my fault
While they were shooting at the moon
Somebody croaked and no-one heard
What's a sin or two in the history of the world
Some one said to me "Why d'you play so loud?"
What do you want from me?
You corrupt the crowd
Miles of print you'd think we'd thought of
Nothing else
There's more important things than ink and
Decibels
Leave it to tomorrow
Corporal Clott and stalingrad
They're the ones to follow
They're the ones, that make me glad
No-one alive and no-one left
Nobody cares or ain't you heard
Looks like I'll take my dying breath
In the history of the world
Therapy Lyrics
6 ContributorsTherapy LyricsTherapy
Plug me in straight again
Who needs this voltage food
Who needs therapy
Who needs this filthy room at night
Who says give up without a fight
Who gets their answers out of books
Dirty men with their dirty looks
Therapy
For clones with their barclaycards
Pension books and mortgage minds
Pay for this therapy who needs this filthy room at night
Who says give up without a fight
Who gets their answers out of books
Dirty men with their dirty looks
What d'you need in your room at night ?
Therapy?
Thats right
What d' you get when you kill that light ?
Therapy
Thats right
What d'you get when it all goes wrong ?
Therapy?
Thats right
Who needs therapy all night long ?
I do !!!
I dream of pavements
Of pavements cold and grey
Cheerful,laughter on a lovely day
I dream of pavements
They won't go away
I dream of pavements
