We passed upon the stair We spoke of was and when Although i wasn’t there He said i was his friend Which came as some surprise I spoke into his eyes, “i thought you died alone A long long time ago” Oh no, not me I never lost control You’re face to face With the…

A small jean genie snuck off to the city Strung out on lasers and slash-back blazers And ate all your razors while pulling the waiters Talking ’bout monroe and walking on snow white New york’s a go-go and everything tastes nice Poor little greenie Jean genie, lives on his back The jean genie, loves chimney…

There’s a brand new dance but i don’t know its name That people from bad homes do again and again It’s big and it’s bland full of tension and fear They do it over there but we don’t do it here Fashion! turn to the left Fashion! turn to the right Oooh, fashion! We are…

Bow bells strike another night Your eyes are heavy and your limbs all ache You’ve bought some coffee, butter and bread You can’t make a thing cause the meter’s dead You moved away Told your folks you’re gonna stay away Bright lights, soho, wardour street You hope you make friends with the guys that you…

Golden years, gold, whop, whop, whop Golden years, gold, whop, whop, whop Golden years, gold, whop, whop, whop Don’t let me hear you say Life’s taking you nowhere, angel (come get up, my baby) Look at that sky, life’s begun Nights are warm and the days are young (come get up, my baby) There’s my…

Living in lies by the railway line Pushing the hair from my eyes Elvis is english and climbs the hills Can’t tell the bullshit from the lies Screaming along in south london Vicious but ready to learn Sometimes i fear that the whole world is queer Sometimes but always in vain So i’ll wait until…

Baby, baby, brush the dust of youth from your shoulder Because the years of threading daisies lie behind you now Don’t return to fields of green where rainbow secrets were told Place your ragged doll with all the toys and paints and deeds I will show you a game where the winner never wins Let…

Well, annie’s pretty neat, she always eats her meat Joe is awful strong, bet your life he’s putting us on Oh lordy, oh lordy, you know i need some loving Oh move me, touch me John, i’m only dancing She turns me on, but i’m only dancing She turns me on, don’t get me wrong…

Valentine told me who’s to go Feelings he’s treasured most of all The teachers and the football star It’s in his tiny face It’s in his scrawny hand Valentine told him so He’s got something to say, it’s valentine’s day The rhythm of the crowd, Tether your judy down Valentine sees it all He’s got…

When i believed in nothing i called her name Trapped in a high-dollar joint in some place i called her name And though my days were slipping by And nights so cruel i thought i’d die She danced her little dance ’till it made me cry She was shakin’ like this honey doing that When…

Do you remember a guy that’s been In such an early song? I heard a rumour from ground control Oh no, don’t say it’s true They got a message from the action man I’m happy, hope you’re happy too I’ve loved all i’ve needed, love Sordid details following The shrieking of nothing is killing Just…

And so the story goes they wore the clothes They said the things to make it seem improbable The whale of a lie like they hope it was And the goodmen tomorrow Had their feet in the wallow And their heads of brawn were nicer shorn And how they bought their positions with saccharin and…

I’m closer to the golden dawn Immersed in crowley’s uniform Of imagery I’m living in a silent film Portraying himmler’s sacred realm Of dream reality I’m frightened by the total goal Drawing to the ragged hole And i ain’t got the power, anymore No i ain’t got the power anymore I’m the twisted name on…
