Them Crooked Vultures - Elephants
Painted as monsters,
Borracho, cansado
Do you know what the people say?
Plucked from the garden
Of wicked beliefs
I offer a rose
& smile with harmless teeth
Then slick back my hair,
You know the devil's in there
Alone in the garden
Like lumbering giants
In a shameful parade
We came to ruin all
& make a rotten trade
So roll over
We're unwanted strangers,
Exploited & dangerous
Unable to hide
Or even dream of it
Como estas, parting the seas,
Like lepers who stroll,
Why you afraid sweety?
I slick back my hair,
You know the devil's in there
So keep one eye open baby
We're so easy to spot,
Lepers riding atop
Pachyderms full of germs,
Elephants broken & screaming
Ian Gillan - Change My Ways
Ian Gillan - Change My Ways lyrics
The cold war's over
The hot one's just begun
From the shivers to the fever
Could be too much sun
If a thing's worth doing
It's worth doing well
But if we don't get moving
We'll be roasting in hell.
I've got to change my ways
In the house of dereliction
In the world of neglect
No-one gives a bit about
What happens next
Reaching terminal velocity
Going out with a bang
Time to fill my pockets
Gonna take what I can
I've got to change my ways
If the truth be told
But then on the other hand,
It's gonna get twisted
Any way you stand
Honesty's a virtue
Or so they say
That's a damn fool notion
Like a sense of fair play
I've got to change my ways
I bare my soul
Though I'm naturally shy
There's no point living
If I'm living a lie
I've had my share
Of disappointment and pain
But, I never felt the need
To point the finger of blame
I've got to change my ways
The cold war's over
The hot one's just begun
From the shivers to the fever
Could be too much sun
If a thing's worth doing
It's worth doing well
But if we don't get moving
We'll be roasting in hell.
I've got to change my ways
In the house of dereliction
In the world of neglect
No-one gives a bit about
What happens next
Reaching terminal velocity
Going out with a bang
Time to fill my pockets
Gonna take what I can
I've got to change my ways
If the truth be told
But then on the other hand,
It's gonna get twisted
Any way you stand
Honesty's a virtue
Or so they say
That's a damn fool notion
Like a sense of fair play
I've got to change my ways
I bare my soul
Though I'm naturally shy
There's no point living
If I'm living a lie
I've had my share
Of disappointment and pain
But, I never felt the need
To point the finger of blame
I've got to change my ways
Ian Gillan - Don't Stop
There's something about you
This I know
Part of it's real
But a lot is for show
I got some indication
That if we do it your way
When I park at the station
I'll have to pay and display
Your arms are open wide
They beckon me inside
The tragedy unfolds
We'll have to break the mould
Don't stop, don't stop
Don't stop, don't stop
Don't stop
We just got started
There's something about me
That you should know
You can take it or leave it
Before I go
You wanna a piece of the action
You wanna slip and slide
If we're going to town baby
You'd better park and ride
You're driving me insane
I love this kind of pain
I love this kind of love
I just can't get enough
Don't stop, don't stop
Don't stop, don't stop
Don't stop
We just got started
This I know
Part of it's real
But a lot is for show
I got some indication
That if we do it your way
When I park at the station
I'll have to pay and display
Your arms are open wide
They beckon me inside
The tragedy unfolds
We'll have to break the mould
Don't stop, don't stop
Don't stop, don't stop
Don't stop
We just got started
There's something about me
That you should know
You can take it or leave it
Before I go
You wanna a piece of the action
You wanna slip and slide
If we're going to town baby
You'd better park and ride
You're driving me insane
I love this kind of pain
I love this kind of love
I just can't get enough
Don't stop, don't stop
Don't stop, don't stop
Don't stop
We just got started
Ian Gillan - No Lotion For That
She was a rude girl baby
With a bye-bye notion of love
She gave no warning
Did a handbrake into my life
It's all too much for me
She said what's up
I said not much
We live, we die
You wanna stay in touch
She don't mean nothing to me
She set my spirit free
She's crawlin' up and down my back
And there ain't no lotion for that
We got no money
So what we gonna do tonight
I'm well passed caring
We'll be staring at the walls all night
It's all too much for a white boy
She said what's happenin'
I said what you got
She set me on fire - ha!
The woman is hot
She don't mean nothing to me
She set my body free
She's crawlin' up and down my back
And there ain't no lotion for that
When it's time to leave
She has to have another dance
It's fair to assume she got
Termites loose in her pants
It's all too much pour moi
She said what's up
I said not much
We live, we die
You wanna stay in touch
She don't mean nothing to me
She set my spirit free
She's crawlin' up and down my back
And there ain't no lotion for that
With a bye-bye notion of love
She gave no warning
Did a handbrake into my life
It's all too much for me
She said what's up
I said not much
We live, we die
You wanna stay in touch
She don't mean nothing to me
She set my spirit free
She's crawlin' up and down my back
And there ain't no lotion for that
We got no money
So what we gonna do tonight
I'm well passed caring
We'll be staring at the walls all night
It's all too much for a white boy
She said what's happenin'
I said what you got
She set me on fire - ha!
The woman is hot
She don't mean nothing to me
She set my body free
She's crawlin' up and down my back
And there ain't no lotion for that
When it's time to leave
She has to have another dance
It's fair to assume she got
Termites loose in her pants
It's all too much pour moi
She said what's up
I said not much
We live, we die
You wanna stay in touch
She don't mean nothing to me
She set my spirit free
She's crawlin' up and down my back
And there ain't no lotion for that
Maximo Park - Calm lyrics
Maximo Park - Calm - song lyrics
How many words did you come up with today
How many words do you want to hear tonight
You flare up but beneath lies defeat
I see your eyes now and they are calm.
I've answered enough phones for one life
I've worn too many ties around my neck
I wake up and I find a trace of you there.
So sullen
Your words haunt the air
I wake up and I find a trace of you there.
So sullen
Taking long walks in perfect silence
Joined together in useless harmony
Your hard breath means that you are upset
An overheated Northwest bliss.
But I've answered enough phones for one life
I've worn too many ties around my neck
Just wait and see.
I don't know much about bravery
But I'll raise you up with my bad jokes and loose promises.
She said to think of her when I'm alone
But I'm never alone
When I want to be.
I wake up and I find a trace of you there
So sullen
Your words haunt the air
I wake up and I find a trace of you there.
So sullen
Your words haunt the air
How many words did you come up with today
How many words do you want to hear tonight
You flare up but beneath lies defeat
I see your eyes now and they are calm.
I've answered enough phones for one life
I've worn too many ties around my neck
I wake up and I find a trace of you there.
So sullen
Your words haunt the air
I wake up and I find a trace of you there.
So sullen
Taking long walks in perfect silence
Joined together in useless harmony
Your hard breath means that you are upset
An overheated Northwest bliss.
But I've answered enough phones for one life
I've worn too many ties around my neck
Just wait and see.
I don't know much about bravery
But I'll raise you up with my bad jokes and loose promises.
She said to think of her when I'm alone
But I'm never alone
When I want to be.
I wake up and I find a trace of you there
So sullen
Your words haunt the air
I wake up and I find a trace of you there.
So sullen
Your words haunt the air
Maximo Park - A Cloud Of Mystery lyrics
Maximo Park - A Cloud Of Mystery - song lyrics
Calm those vowels down
No one's thinking of you right now.
She's dressed up
It's her duty to the town.
It's empty. It's vast.
But it imposes it's will.
In a crowded room
Her painted features smothered in the groom
Already resigned
At night she strips away the face
That she creates
The mirror sighs
Why can't we always meet
Under a cloud of mystery
The noise from a hundred miles
Working through memories
Big budget, Showbiz exit
She will go far.
Acting coy was her favourite ploy
It quickly loses its charm.
The frosted cheek
You turned will add
To your mystique
He burns for you
I threw myself into your world
Only to come up short.
Why can't we always meet
Under a cloud of mystery
The noise travelled a hundred miles
Working through memories
Kept for a Thursday afternoon
Before the time when you withdrew
Why can't we always meet
Under a cloud of mystery
Bathroom lights start the evening
Where the buildings skim the air
Hairspray curls push the cheek
As they swoon on a wooden dance floor
There's nothing worse than taking a chance
On an outdated dance.
Why can't we always meet
Under a cloud of mystery
The noise travelled a hundred miles
Cursing through memories
Kept for a Thursday afternoon
Before the time when you withdrew
Why can't we always meet
Under a cloud of mystery?
Calm those vowels down
No one's thinking of you right now.
She's dressed up
It's her duty to the town.
It's empty. It's vast.
But it imposes it's will.
In a crowded room
Her painted features smothered in the groom
Already resigned
At night she strips away the face
That she creates
The mirror sighs
Why can't we always meet
Under a cloud of mystery
The noise from a hundred miles
Working through memories
Big budget, Showbiz exit
She will go far.
Acting coy was her favourite ploy
It quickly loses its charm.
The frosted cheek
You turned will add
To your mystique
He burns for you
I threw myself into your world
Only to come up short.
Why can't we always meet
Under a cloud of mystery
The noise travelled a hundred miles
Working through memories
Kept for a Thursday afternoon
Before the time when you withdrew
Why can't we always meet
Under a cloud of mystery
Bathroom lights start the evening
Where the buildings skim the air
Hairspray curls push the cheek
As they swoon on a wooden dance floor
There's nothing worse than taking a chance
On an outdated dance.
Why can't we always meet
Under a cloud of mystery
The noise travelled a hundred miles
Cursing through memories
Kept for a Thursday afternoon
Before the time when you withdrew
Why can't we always meet
Under a cloud of mystery?
Maximo Park - The penultimate clinch lyrics
Maximo Park - The penultimate clinch lyrics
Bury me
Like dangerous waste.
I'll lay dormant
For a thousand years.
But it's like dismantling
A decommissioned spacecraft.
Some parts you can't destroy.
She fidgets too much.
I've got a bee in my bonnet.
She stayed aspirant
To avoid accidents.
On my return I will smother you.
In everything that I've learnt
Until you turn blue.
Now is never a good time
When you're ready to engage.
My newsprint fingers are turning a page.
Oh, she fidgets too much.
I've got a bee in my bonnet.
Soon enough our lips will linger
And you start to pull away
Before this chance is torn asunder
Your hips begin to sway.
The penultimate clinch
Lasted the longest
It's the penultimate clinch
It was the warmest
That delivered a pinch
Sounded the warning
Of a foolish flinch
I found it appalling
Oh, the penultimate clinch
Lasted the longest
It's the penultimate clinch
It was the warmest
That delivered a pinch
Sounded the warning
Of a foolish flinch
I found it appalling
Bury me
Like dangerous waste.
I'll lay dormant
For a thousand years.
But it's like dismantling
A decommissioned spacecraft.
Some parts you can't destroy.
She fidgets too much.
I've got a bee in my bonnet.
She stayed aspirant
To avoid accidents.
On my return I will smother you.
In everything that I've learnt
Until you turn blue.
Now is never a good time
When you're ready to engage.
My newsprint fingers are turning a page.
Oh, she fidgets too much.
I've got a bee in my bonnet.
Soon enough our lips will linger
And you start to pull away
Before this chance is torn asunder
Your hips begin to sway.
The penultimate clinch
Lasted the longest
It's the penultimate clinch
It was the warmest
That delivered a pinch
Sounded the warning
Of a foolish flinch
I found it appalling
Oh, the penultimate clinch
Lasted the longest
It's the penultimate clinch
It was the warmest
That delivered a pinch
Sounded the warning
Of a foolish flinch
I found it appalling
