LET'S GO TO BED
Let me take your hand
I'm shaking like milk
Turning
Turning blue
All over the windows and the floors
Fires outside in the sky
Look as perfect as cats
The two of us together again
But it's just the same
A stupid game
But I don't care if you don't
And I don't feel if you don't
And I don't want it if you don't
And I won't say it
If you don't say it first
You think you're tired now
But wait until three...
Laughing at the Christmas lights
You remember
From December
All of this then back again
Another girl
Another name
Stay alive but stay the same
It's just the same
A stupid game
But I don't care if you don't
And I don't feel if you don't
And I don't want it if you don't
And I won't play it
If you don't play it first
You can't even see now
So you ask me the way
You wonder if it's real
Because it couldn't be rain...
Through the right doorway
And into the white room
It used to be the dust that would lay here
When I came here alone
But I don't care if you don't
And I don't feel if you don't
And I don't want it if you don't
And I won't say it
If you don't say it first
Doo doo doo doo
Let's go to bed!
Doo doo doo doo
Let's go to bed!
THE DREAM
You're too far away Too far away to touch And this mother's love inside me Hurts too much Prettily waving Playing on the sand Dreaming of everything Dancing Dancing in our hands Dancing Dancing Dizzy dizzy dizzy As I speak Like a tumbling cat I watch in fascination Like a vampire bat Don't do it don't do it Don't do it don't do it Don't give it away We'll use it up tomorrow If we don't use it today Rest your head Oh! just put it outside All wrapped up in ribbons The night The dream The time love died We pushed it in our mouths Pushed it deep inside All wrapped up in ribbons The night The dream The time Love died
JUST ONE KISS
Remember the time that you rained all night The queen of Siam in my arms Remember the time that the islands sank But nobody opened their eyes Remember that time that the trees fell down The wood crashing through the wall Remember the sound that could wake the dead But nobody woke up at all Somebody died for this Somebody died for just one kiss Remember the time that the sky went black We waited alone on the sands Remember the taste of the raging sea But nobody held out their hands Somebody died for this Somebody died For just one kiss Just one kiss Just one kiss
THE UPSTAIRS ROOM
I love it all These games we play I close my eyes You run away I'm sure I asked you to stay But now you're gone And so I feel the grey Pulse in my head I turn off the lights and crawl into bed I try to think of sunshine But my body goes wet With the first crash of thunder... I don't think I can know Anyone but you dear That's for sure! When it gets to four It's my turn to go Oh the kiss! So alcoholic and slow Arranging me for Saturday I thought you would know That I always sleep alone... I don't think I can know Anyone but you Dear That's for sure! The upstairs room is cool and bright We can go up there in summer And dance all night... Your sister started talking at a minute after ten So everyone jumped up And then fell over again In April you can join them And stare at me At the ghost from your past...
THE WALK
I called you after midnight Then ran until I burst I passed the howling woman And stood outside your door We walked around a lake And woke up in the rain And everyone turned over Troubled in their dreams again Visiting time is over And so we walk away And both play dead then cry out loud Why we always cry this way? I kissed you in the water And made your dry lips sing I saw you look Like a Japanese baby In an instant I remembered everything... I called you after midnight Then ran until my heart burst I passed the howling woman And stood outside your door I kissed you in the water And made your dry lips sing I saw you look Like a Japanese baby In an instant I remembered everything...
SPEAK MY LANGUAGE
It was only yesterday Waving arms across the street Your white face left me blue... How can I say all the things I have to say to you? Oh! all the people here All look the same... The little time I spend with you We drink each other dry Mammnnarghaassstmmetc! Speak my language! It was only yesterday My eyes touched yours across the street We cut the words And waved goodbye And dropped off the edge of the world Mammnnarghaassstmmetc! Speak my language!
LAMENT
Today there was a tragedy Underneath the bridge A man walked Cold and blue Into La Ment The sky coloured perfect As the man slipped away Waving with a last vanilla smile... Somewhere at a table Two drowned fools Smoking Drinking water as they talked Of how they loved our lady And oh! the smell as candles die... One more ice cream river body Flowed underneath the bridge Underneath the bridge
THE LOVECATS
We move like cagey tigers
We couldn't get closer than this
The way we walk
The way we talk
The way we stalk
The way we kiss
We slip through the streets
While everyone sleeps
Getting bigger and sleeker
And wider and brighter
We bite and scratch and scream all night
Let's go and throw
All the songs we know...
Into the sea
You and me
All these years and no one heard
I'll show you in spring
It's a treacherous thing
We missed you hissed the lovecats
We're so wonderfully wonderfully wonderfully
Wonderfully pretty!
Oh you know that I'd do anything for you...
We should have each other to tea huh?
We should have each other with cream
Then curl up by the fire
And sleep for a while
It's the grooviest thing
It's the perfect dream
Into the sea
You and me
All these years and no one heard
I'll show you in spring
It's a treacherous thing
We missed you hissed the lovecats
We're so wonderfully wonderfully wonderfully
Wonderfully pretty!
Oh you know that I'd do anything for you...
We should have each other to dinner huh?
We should have each other with cream
Then curl up in the fire
Get up for awhile
It's the grooviest thing
It's the perfect dream
Hand in hand
Is the only way to land
And always the right way round
Not broken in pieces
Like hated little meeces...
How could we miss
Someone as dumb as this?
I love you… let's go...
Oh… solid gone...
How could we miss
Someone as dumb as this?
