1983 (A Merman I Should Turn To Be)

 

"Hurray i awake from yesterday

alive but the war is here to stay

so my love catherina and me

decide to take our last walk

through the noise to the sea

not to die but to be re-born

away from a life so battered and torn....

 

forever...

oh say can you see its really such a mess

every inch of earth is a fighting nest

giant pencil and lip-stick tube shaped things

continue to rain and cause screaming pain

and the arctic stains

from silver blue to bloody red

as our feet find the sand

and the sea is strait ahead..

strait ahead.....

well its too bad

that our friends

cant be with us today

well thats too bad

"the machine

that we built

would never save us"

thats what they say

(thats why they aint coming with us today)

and they also said

"its impossible for man

to live and breath underwater..

forever" was their main complaint

(yeah)

and they also threw this in my face:

they said

anyway

you know good well

it would be beyond the will of God

and the grace of the King

(grace of the King yeah yeah)

 

so my darling and I

make love in the sand

to salute the last moment

ever on dry land

our machine has done its work

played its part well

without a scratch on our bodies

and we bid it farewell

 

starfish and giant foams

greet us with a smile

before our heads go under

we take a last look

at the killing noise

of the out of style...

the out of style, out of style"

you can have washington i'll take new jersey

you can have london but i want new york city

 

i should get providence i've got a job now

los angeles - obvious - that's where you belong now

 

you can have africa asia australia

as long as you keep your hands off cafe pamplona

 

we can split germany right down the middle

you'd hate it there anyway

take berlin and well call it even

 

you can take all of the carry-on baggage

i'll trade the saskia jokes for the alphabet language

 

and if we find out that we have any children

we'll trade them off summers and alternating weekends

 

you call it over and i call you psycho

significant other?

just say we were lovers and we'll call it even

we'll call it even

 

i am the ground zero ex-friend you ordered

disgused as a hero to get past your borders

i know when i'm wanted i'll leave when you ask me to

mind my own business and speak when i'm spoken to

 

i am the tower around which you orbited

i am not proud i am just taking orders

i fall to the groud within moments of impact

i hit back if hit

and attack if attacked

 

you get route 2 between concord and lexington

i want mass ave from the sqaure to my apartment

 

and if we should meet through some misunderstanding

ill be very sweet very patient and forgiving

(now get off my side of the state)

 

and if we should meet one another in passing

despite these techniques there is sometimes no avoiding

(there must be some kind of mistake)

 

we'll raise high our white flags and say hi and shake hands

declaring the land we're on unamerican

we'll call it even

 

i am the tower around which you orbited

i am not proud i am just taking orders

i fall to the groud within moments of impact

i hit back if hit

and attack if attacked

 

i am an accident waiting to happen

i'm laughing like mad while you strangle the captain

my place may be taken, but make no mistake

from a little black black box i can say without shame

that you've lost

do you know what you've lost?

 

so take whatever you'd like

i'll strike like the States on fire

you won't sleep very tight

no hiding

no safe covers

make your bed and now liejust like you always do

you can fake it for the papers but i'm on to you....

All fall down

 

You can comment all day til dark. You can call me any name you want. You can look me up and down. I won't stop, no, I won't fall apart.

 

You can put me down. You can make me mad. You can call me mean but I think it's really sad that somet days I just wanna stay inside. I guess it makes you happy that I live my life

 

ON GUARD

 

Stop thief, you can't steal the way I fuckin felt when I got up today. Well I guess you're the judge. I guess you're the king of the forever beauty pageant I'm always in.

 

My heart beats blue, beats red, beats mad. Is this the only power that you really wanna have? Count from one to nine, how high do I rate? I guess feeling good was my first mistake.

 

EN GARDE

 

Let me see you shake it baby shake it some more.

 

ON GUARD

Are you a girl or a boy? Are you a boy or a girl?

ON GUARD

I was feelin the song back when i lived in Texas.

 

"Stabbing Westward - Television"

 

I sit alone....contemplating

What is missing inside me

I desperately try to remember

A life that's not meant to be

I meditate

And try to recapture

Some sense of reality

In my life

When I look around,

I see numb, empty faces

The world is waiting to die

And this apathy

Is so suffocating

The slow decay of my mind

I've searched the world

For someone with answers

To questions that are plaguing me

I scream in vain

To anyone who'll listen

But everbody's watchin' TV

Is anyone alive?

Am I lost in a world

Where nothing matters?

Am I lost in a world

Where no one cares?

Is anyone alive?

Are we lost in a world

Where nothing matters?

Are we lost in a world

Where no one cares?

Is anyone alive?

After all the jack are in their boxes,

And the clowns have all gone to bed

You can hear happiness staggering on down the street

Footprints dressed in red

 

And the wind whispers, "Mary"

 

A broom is drearily sweeping

up the broken pieces of yesterday's life

Somewhere a queen is weeping

Somewhere a king has no wife

 

And the wind, it cries, "Mary"

 

The traffic lights turn blue tomorrow

And shine an emptiness down on our bed

The tiny island sags downstream

Cause the life that lived is dead

 

And the wind screams, "Mary"

 

Will the wind ever remember

the names it has blown in the past?

With its crutch, its old age, and its wisdom

It whispers, "No this will be the last"

 

And the wind cries, "Mary"

Wish that I could lie in the sun

Same things as anyone

Wish I could lie down there

With my feet high in the air

 

I'd have a drink in my hand

Read words from a newspaper stand

Wish I could lie in the sun

Wish I could fly like everyone

Same things as anyone

Same things as anyone

 

But you burn me up, you paint my skin

In bad designs that ain't even in

 

My skin's crawling up the wall

Into the the ocean I'd love to fall

I hear the sounds but they ain't the same

As feeling them with you two feet away

 

There's always more worse of than me

Suppose I'm lucky I can even see

All the people that I'd like to be

Passing me by everyday in the street

Same things as anyone

Same things as anyone

 

But you burn me up, you paint my skin

In bad designs that ain't even in

I got good lungs, I got a good heart

My mind is fit and my feet can walk

 

And here I am in the shade on the street

Asking people for money to eat

What did I ever do to deserve this?

Did I kill a child or something worse?

Same things as anyone

What's the reason, maybe make you feel

How much more fortunate you are than me

in my platforms

i hit the floor

fell face down

didn't help my brain out

then the baby came

before i found

the magic how

to keep her happy

i never was the fantasy

of what you want

wanted me to be

don't judge me so harsh little girl

so you got a playboy mommy

but when you tell them my name

from here to birmingham

i got a few friends

oh, we turn and we turn our little blue world upside down

i said, don't we love to turn our little blue world baby upside down

inside my head a voice

chatter, chatter, chatter, chatter, chatter

and it says girl you're all the same

still coming out of your mothers

still coming out of your mothers upside down

I look at you all see the love there that's sleeping

While my guitar gently weeps

I look at the floor and I see it needs sweeping

Still my guitar gently weeps

I don't know why nobody told you

How to unfold your love

I don't know how someone controlled you

They bought and sold you.

 

I look at the world and I notice it's turning

While my guitar gently weeps

With every mistake we must surely be learning

Still my guitar gently weeps

I don't know how you were diverted

You were perverted too

I don't know how you were inverted

No one alerted you.

 

I look from the wings at the play you are staging

While my guitar gently weeps

Look at you all…

Still my guitar gently weeps.

Out of bed, it's 8:00am

Out my head, at half past 10

Out with mates and dates and friends

That's what I do at weekends

I can't talk and I can't walk

But I know where I'm going to dance

I'm going to watch my money go

And the look I know, know

As my feet go through the door

I know what my right time is for

Buy a drink and pull a chair

Up to the edge if the dance floor

Dance and prances through the night

Trying to start or stop a fight

I sit and watch the flashing lights

Moving left and footless tides

 

I go out on Friday nights and I come home on Saturday mornings (x2)

 

I like to venture in to to town

I like to get a few drinks down

The floor gets packed the bar gets full

I don't like life when things get dull

The hen party to save the night

Free themselves from drunken stacks

Having fun and dancing in

Circle 'round the leather bags

 

I go out on Friday nights and I come home on Saturday mornings (x2)

 

But 2 O Clock has come again

It's time to leave this paradise

But the chip shop isn't closed

'Cause their pies are really nice

I get in the taxi cue

Sitting in someone else's spew

Wish I had lipstick on my shirt

Instead of piss stains on my shoes

Is this the in place to be

What am I doing here

Watching the girls go by

Spending money on...

 

Sleep all day, it's the only way

I'm a parasite, I creep out at night

 

Nite club, is this the in place to be

Nite club, what am I doing here

Nite club, watching the girls go by

Spending money on...

 

Hey, hey, I don't work 'cause I don't have to

I don't have to work there's no work to do

Nite club, I'm a member of the nite club

 

I won't dance in a club like this

'Cause all the girls are sluts

And the beer tastes just like piss

I sold my soul for the second time

Cos the man dont pay me

I begged my landlord for some more time

He said son the bills are waiting

My best friend called me the other night

He say Man - you crazy

My girlfriend told me to get a life

She said boy - you lazy

But I dont mind

As long as theres a bed beneath the stars that shine

I'll be fine, if you give me a minute

A mans got a limit

I cant get a life if my hearts not in it

 

I lost my faith in the summer time

Cos it don't stop raining

The sky all day is as black as night

But Im not complaining

I begged my doctor for one more line

He say Son - words fail me

It aint your place to be killing time

I guess Im just lazy

Cementary gates, by pantera!

 

Reverend, reverend,

Is this a conspiracy?

Crucified for no sins

No revenge... beneath me.

Lost within my plans for life,

It all seems so unreal.

I’m a man cut in half in this world,

Left in my misery.

 

(instrumental)

 

The reverend he turned to me

Without a tear in his eyes.

It’s nothing new for him to see,

I didn’t ask him why.

I will remember...

The love our souls had sworn to make.

Now I watch the falling rain

All my mind can see now is your (face).

 

Well I guess

You took my youth

And gave it all away.

Like the birth of a new found joy,

This love would end in rage...

And when she died

I couldn’t cry,

The pride within my soul.

You left me incomplete

All alone as the memories now unfold.

 

Believe the word.

I will unlock my door...

And pass the cemetery gates.

 

 

But the lyrics aren't what's stuck in my head, it's the riff!

 

BUM chum chum chum chum ba duh da doo daa daa DWEEEE dum!!!

BUM chum chum chum chum ba duh da doo daa daa DWEEEE dum!!!

Nine Inch Nails - Physical

 

I wanna take you baby

I wanna take you out

I wanna wine and dine you

Oh I wanna twist and twist and shout

I want you hot in my arms

So soft on my bed

You get the key to my heart

Oh when you wear that sweet dress

 

But you're too physical physical to me

You're just too physical physical no to me

 

I want your rough house baby

I want this right in your ear

You let me feel your danger

I let you make this feeling clear here

I want the touch of your charms

The heat of your breath

I wanna say all those things

That would be better unsaid

No

 

But you're too physical physical to me

You're just too physical oh

You're too physical for me

You're too physical to me

You're really jus- just too- just

Too really fuck no

 

You're just too physical

Too fucking physical

No

Oh you're too physical

Just too physical

Just too
