Track Lyrics
Discothèque Lyrics
[Verse 1]
You can reach, but you can't grab it
You can't hold it, control it
You can't bag it (Uh)
You can push, but you can't direct it
Circulate, regulate, oh no
You cannot connect it
[Refrain]
You know you're chewing bubble gum
You know what that is, but you still want some
You just can't get enough of that lovey-dovey stuff
[Verse 2]
You get confused, but you know it
Yeah, you hurt for it, work for it, love
You don't always show it, love
[Chorus]
Let go, let's go, discothèque
Go, go, let go, discothèque
[Post-Chorus]
Looking for the one
But you know you're somewhere else instead
You wanna be the song
The song that you hear in your head
Love, love, love, love
[Verse 3]
It's not a trick, 'cause you can't learn it
It's the way you don't pay that's okay
'Cause you can't earn it, love
[Pre-Chorus]
You know you're chewing bubble gum
You know what that is, but you still want some
You just can't get enough of that lovey-dovey stuff
[Chorus]
Let go, let's go, discothèque
Go, go, let go, discothèque
[Post-Chorus]
Looking for the one
But you know you're somewhere else instead
You wanna be the song
The song that you hear in your head
Love, love, love
[Outro]
But you take what you can get
'Cause it's all that you can find
Oh, you know there's something more
But tonight, tonight, tonight
Boom-cha, boom-cha, discothèque
Boom-cha, boom-cha, discothèque
Boom-cha, boom-cha, discothèque
Boom-cha, boom-cha, discothèque
Boom-cha, boom-cha, discothèque
Boom-cha, boom-cha, discothèque
Staring at the Sun Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Summer stretching on the grass
Summer dresses pass
In the shade of a willow tree
Creeps a-crawling over me
Over me and over you
Stuck together with God's glue
It's gonna get stickier too
It's been a long hot summer
Let's get undercover
Don't try too hard to think
Don't think at all
[Chorus]
I'm not the only one
Staring at the sun
Afraid of what you'd find
If you took a look inside
Not just deaf and dumb
Staring at the sun
Not the only one
Who's happy to go blind
[Verse 2]
There's an insect in your ear
If you scratch it won't disappear
It's gonna itch and burn and sting
Do you wanna see what the scratching brings?
Waves that leave me out of reach
Breaking on your back like a beach
Will we ever live in peace?
'Cause those that can't do often have to
And those that can't do often have to preach
[Chorus]
To the ones
Staring at the sun
Afraid of what you'll find
If you took a look inside
Not just deaf and dumb
Staring at the sun
I'm not the only one
Who'd rather go blind
[Verse 3]
Intransigence is all around
Military's still in town
Armour-plated suits and ties
Daddy just won't say goodbye
Referee won't blow the whistle
God is good but will he listen?
I'm nearly great but there's something missing
I left it in the duty free
Oh, but you never really belonged to me
[Chorus]
You're not the only one
Staring at the sun
Afraid of what you'd find
If you stepped back inside
I'm not sucking on my thumb
I'm staring at the sun
Not the only one
Who's happy to go blind
The Playboy Mansion Lyrics
[Verse 1]
If Coke is a mystery
Michael Jackson, history
If beauty is truth
And surgery the fountain of youth
What am I to do?
Have I got the gifts to get me through
The gates of that mansion?
[Verse 2]
If O.J. is more than a drink
And a Big Mac bigger than you think
And perfume is an obsession
And talk shows confession
What have we got to lose?
Another push and we'll be through
The gates of that mansion
[Verse 3]
I never bought a lotto ticket
I never parked in anyone's space
The banks they're like cathedrals
I guess casinos took their place
Love, come on down
Don't wake her, she'll come around
[Verse 4]
Chance is a kind of religion
Where you're damned for plain hard luck
I never did see that movie
I never did read that book
Love, come on down
Let my numbers come around
[Bridge]
Don't know if I can hold on
Don't know if I'm that strong
Don't know if I can wait that long
Till the colours come flashing
And the lights go on
[Verse 5]
Then will there be no time for sorrow
Then will there be no time for shame
And though I can't say why
I know I've got to believe
We'll go driving in that pool
It's who you know that gets you through
The gates of the Playboy Mansion
But they don't mention the pain
[Outro]
Then will there be no time for sorrow
Then will there be no time for shame
Then will there be no time for sorrow
Then will there be no time for shame
If You Wear That Velvet Dress Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Tonight, the moon is playing tricks again
I'm feeling seasick again
The whole world could just dissolve into a glass of water
[Verse 2]
I've been good 'cause I know you don't want me to
Do you really want me to be blue as you?
It's her daylight that gets me through
[Verse 3]
We've been here before last time you scratched at my door
The moon was naked and cold, I was like a two-year-old
Who just wanted more
[Chorus]
If you wear that velvet dress (If you wear that velvet dress)
If you wear that velvet dress (If you wear that velvet dress)
[Verse 4]
Tonight, the moon's drawn its curtains
It's a private show, no one else gonna know
I'm wanting
[Instrumental Break]
[Verse 5]
Sunlight, sunlight fills my room
It's sharp and it's clear
But nothing at all like the moon
[Verse 6]
It's okay, the struggle for things not to say
I never listened to you anyway
And I got my own hands to pray
[Chorus]
If you wear that velvet dress (If you wear that velvet dress)
If you wear that velvet dress (If you wear that velvet dress)
[Verse 7]
Tonight the moon is a mirrorball
Light flickers from across the hall
Who'll catch the star when it falls?
[Outro]
(If you wear that velvet dress)
