Carnival Of Thieves : Den of Thieves

Lyrics
1. THIS IS WAR TOO
An eye for an eye now, a tooth for a tooth
I'm playing with voodoo, I've put a curse on you.
Like a dog of war, I howl at the moon
A soldier of fortune, I'm gunning for you.
Trapped in my headlights, lost in the dark
I'm seeking revenge, for this broken heart.
You're locked and loaded, I seek you from far
So be my enemy, cos this is war.
So Will You Fight (let's do it)
No compromise (rise to it)
Die with pride (let's do it)
So do it now, now, do it now
do it, do it, do it now hoo-ha.
From shore to shore, from coast to coast
You're in my sights, wherever you go.
You can run all day, you can run all night
But you can't hide, from this raging fire
You're blind to the light, you're blind to the dark
There's no place on earth, you can hide your black heart.
You're under my spell, be you near or far
So be my enemy, cos this is war.
So Will You Fight (let's do it)
No compromise (rise to it)
Die with pride (let's do it)
So do it now, now, do it now
do it, do it, do it now hoo-ha.
What you gonna do? (I'll fight, I'll fight with you)
What you gonna say? (I'll fight, I'll fight today)
This time, this time, this time oh oh
This time, this time, this time oh oh
What you gonna do? (I'll fight, I'll fight with you)
So will you fight (let's do it)
No compromise (rise to it)
Die with pride (let's do it)
So do it now, now, do it now
do it, do it, do it now
So will you fight(let's do it)
No compromise (rise to it)
Die with pride (let's do it)
So do it now, now, do it now
Do it, do it, do it now hoo-ha.
2. ACID RAIN
Here comes the News
The atmosphere has been abused
(Rain me down) let it carry on pouring
Storms break the skies
I raise my hands to shield my eyes
(Rain me down) let it carry on pouring.
Rain on me, rain on down
Acid rain burns the holy ground
Let it rain, let it pour
Oh like a cloudburst, like the thunderbreaks
You're raining down on me
Oh acid rain.
So cry the trees
Poison clouds upon the breeze
And the rains of fire, still carry on pouring
Rains of disease
Yet still we reap the killing fields
And the rains of fire, still carry on pouring.
Rain on me, Rain on down
Acid rain burns the holy ground
Let it rain, let it pour
Oh like a monsoon, like a hurricane
You're raging down on me
Oh acid rain.
Rain on me, rain on down
Acid rain burns the holy ground
Let it rain, let it pour
Oh like a landslide, like an avalanche
You're crashing down on me
Oh acid rain.
Rain on me, Rain on down
Acid rain burns the holy ground
Let it rain, let it pour
Oh like a typhoon from the fires of hell
You're pouring down on me
Oh acid rain.
3. ON THE RUN
In a dirty bed sit
In the dead end part of town
The wolves are at my door
And I'm begging a pound
I buy a gun and shoot a stranger
I'm not the man I used to be.
What have I done
What have I done
What have I done
I'm on the run.
In a railway station
Platform 2 is where I'm found
Held up in a luggage van
On a train that's nowhere bound
I'm heading for a cold asylum
The sound of sirens all around.
What have I done
What have I done
What have I done
I'm on the run.
Oh momma
It wasn't my gun
The trigger just slipped
All we were doing was having some fun
The law are on my back
I'm a wanted man
Oh momma, oh momma
Help me if you can
I'm not going down
I'm not going down
Can't you see, can't you hear, can't you feel
I'm out of control.
What have I done
What have I done
What have I done
I'm on the run
What have I done
What have I done
What have i done
I'm on the run yeah! yeah! yeah!
What have I done?
I'm on the run
What have I done?
I'm on the run.
4. RUNAWAY TRAIN
Black heart Cruel heart) inside your shell
Everything you touch, turns into hell
But I wonder how I'm ever gonna live, now I'm without you
You ripped the love right out of my heart
You took me in and you spat me out
Now I wonder how I'm ever gonna feel love, now I'm without you.
You're out of control
There's a 2 minute warning on the radio
Don't you know
You're a runaway train on a journey I don't wanna go.
With cold eyes you'd stare at me
You've taken everything that you could see
But I wonder how I'm ever gonna do, now I'm without you
Now you're free you're running wild
Like a pyromaniac spitting out fire
Still I wonder how I'm ever gonna live, now I'm without you.
You're out of control
There's a 2 minute warning on the radio
Told you so
You're a runaway train on a journey I don't wanna go.
The train keeps rolling
It just keeps rolling
This train keeps rolling
It just keeps rolling along.
You're out of control
There's a 2 minute warning on the radio
Return my soul
You're a runaway train on a journey i don't wanna go.
5. SONG FOR SOMEONE
I've played the fool
So many times before
I've had it up to my neck
With all this crap I've had to endure
Now I'm not gonna take this lying down
Get outta my face you've lost the crown
You ain't my princess anymore.
This ain't a song for someone (no, no, no, no)
This is a song to you
This ain't a song for someone (no, no, no, no)
This is a song for you
Just for you.
There's no hard feelings
There's nothing left to say
If you wanna make a mess of these things
Then thats alright by me
I refuse to say it's ok
Gonna change things along the way
Keep your hassles away from me
Close aint good girl
Put some distance in our way
What am i supposed to say
I'm the loser either way
Heart of stone no where to go
It's all over anyway
Don't beg me darling just walk away.
This ain't a song for someone (no, no, no, no)
This is a song to you
This ain't a song for someone (no, no, no, no)
This is a song for you
Just for you.
This ain't a song for someone (no, no, no, no)
This is a song to you
This ain't a song for someone (no, no, no, no)
This is a song for you.
This ain't a song for someone (no, no, no, no)
This is a song to you
This ain't a song for someone (no, no, no, no)
This is a song for you
Just for you.
6. BOHEMIAN HIGHWAY
Everybody's hooked on something
Everyone has their habits to feed
You man get a buzz from stealing
And half the worlds a nicotine freak
And everyday the world gets madder
Joy riding the teenage craze
But me i don't need that shit man
I'd like to think I've got more brains.
You'd kill the oceans, kill the skies
Kill the ozone so we'd all die
You'd kill the crackheads and Speed freaks
And kill the stoner for his weed
You'd kill your mum for her gold ring
To get your fix of Heroin
You'd kill a pimp to rape his whore
And kill your god to steel his souls
But when you gonna learn that killing just don't pay
Bohemian
Highway
Bohemian highway.
Everybody's high on something
Everybody's building bombs
God damn the worlds a nightmare
Every maniacs wielding a gun
And everyday the world gets faster
Ram raiding a teenage craze
But me i don't follow that stuff man
You must have shit for brains.
You'd kill the oceans, kill the skies
Kill the ozone so we'd all die
You'd kill the crackheads and speed freaks
And kill the stoner for his weed
You'd kill your mum for her gold ring
To get your fix of Heroin
You'd kill a pimp to rape his whore
And kill your god to steel his souls
But when you gonna learn that killing just don't pay
Bohemian
Highway
Bohemian Highway.
Our cities aren't safe when you're around
Our streets aren't safe when you're around
Our homes aren't safe when you're around
No no, just go.
You'd kill the oceans, kill the skies
Kill the ozone so we'd all die
You'd kill the crackheads and Speed freaks
And kill the stoner for his weed
You'd kill your mum for her gold ring
To get your fix of Heroin
You'd kill a pimp to rape his whore
And kill your god to steel his souls
But when you gonna learn that killing just don't pay
Bohemian
Highway
Bohemian Highway.
Whatcha gonna say to the devils son?
Whatcha gonna do when the hoodoo comes?
Whatcha gonna do when you face his gun?
Whatcha gonna do when the voodoo comes?
When the voodoo comes?
When the voodoo comes?
7. A MAN DRESSED IN BLACK
I see him walking down the street one day
He turns and looks, looks my way
But as I turn to say
He fades away.
He's a stranger in this viscinity
He looks like an agent of mystery
And in the shadows
He walks the city streets.
He's a stranger, clad in black
And like the speed of light he moves through you
You're a man dressed in black
Through the wind and rain, I'll still keep searching for You.
Down avenues and boulevards
He flits through cafe's and city bars
I thought I saw him
By a market stall.
He's like ghost who floats from place to place
One day I'm gonna meet him face to face
But like a rainbow
He leaves no trace.
He's a stranger, clad in Black
And like the speed of light he moves through you
You're a man dressed in black
Through the wind and rain, I'll still keep searching for You.
No face, no trace, a silhouette through mist and haze
This stranger, he's dressed in black
No name, alwaystThe same, he flickers through cinematic Frames
This stranger, he's Dressed in Black.
He's a stranger, clad in black
And like the speed of light he moves through you
You're a man dressed in black
Through the wind and rain, I'll still keep searching for you
For you, for you, for you, for you.
Stranger, stranger
Stranger, stranger.
8. LAST TRAIN TO HELL
Well I'll be leaving
You'll be as free as a bird
Don't you cry now sweet child
'Cos you can take on this world
Didn't mean to hurt you
Didn't mean to make you so sad
I'm as cold as the winter babe
And girl I'm hurting so bad.
Got a gun full of lead
Gonna put it to my head
And then you'll know
I'm on the last train to hell.
I'm out on the freeway
Been a driving for miles and miles
The shadows grow long now
From the ever lasting skies
You know someone once told me
You had the loneliest eyes in the world
But I was blind, i was so blind
And now I want to burn.
Got a gun full of lead
Gonna put it to my head
And then I'll know
I'm on the last train to hell.
Got a gun full of lead
Gonna put it to my head
And blow it off
I'm on the last train to hell.
No more pain
Last train to hell
No more pain sweet child
Last train to hell.
9. MIDNIGHT BLUES
11:59
On a blue sunday evening
Another lazy weekend's gone by
Without your loving baby.
The night air is cold
You know the north wind she blows how she blows
If there was a light in your window girl
That's where I'd be coming home.
But time is on my side.
12:15
Can't get you out of my head, out of my head
You know you hurt me sweet child
With all those bad, sad things that you said.
Monday morning
I feel a blue day is dawning
Do you remember those sweet september skies?
Oh girl, oh girl.
But time she's on my side.
Long lonely days of pain
Can't take heartache again
You got me drowning in my whiskey baby
You got me, you got me
The midnight blues.
Long lonely days of pain
Can't take heartache again
You got me drowning in my whiskey baby
You got me, you got me
The midnight blues.
Long lonely days of pain
Can't take heartache again
You got me drowning in my whiskey baby
You got me, you got me
The midnight blues.
10. THE RAIN POURED DOWN ON ME
I met you under berlin lilac trees
English spy falls for spandau queen
1944 and this war it never yields
Autumn leaves fall down gold and green.
There's danger on the german radio
As the rain it poured down on me
It's crazy our dark hidden secret
But my love for you goes on and on.
I kissed you but you seemed so uncertain
We talked by lanterns for hours in the twilight
I held your hand as we closed the curtains
As the bombs rained down all through the night.
There's danger on the german radio
As the rain it poured down on me
It's crazy our souls in isolation
But your love for me goes on and on.
I saw the rain as it bathed on your pretty face
I caught your eyes as they lit up the sky
Souls scream as the city burns to ash again
Sit in darkness as the sirens wail by.
There's danger on the german radio
As the rain it poured down on me
It's crazy and it's so uncertain
But this war it goes on and on.
Red rains brought blood and flames
Red rains, red rains
This Rain poured down again
Red rains, red rains.
11. FACE THE WORLD
You are my everything
My sea of pearls
I'd swim every ocean
To make you my world.
You're there in the sunshine
I'm here in the rain.
We've gotta face the world, face the world oh oh
We've gotta face the world, face the world oh.
You're there in the twilight
Im here in the haze.
We've gotta face the world, face the world oh oh
We've gotta face the world, face the world oh.
You're there in the bright lights
Im here in the shade.
We've gotta face the world, face the world oh oh
We've gotta Face the world, face the world oh.
We've gotta face the world, face the world oh oh
We've Gotta face the world, face the world oh.
12. THE JOEY POET
Europe is dying 1993
The old man harbours his memories
Violins swimming, swirling through his ears
As the earth is swallowed up by the sea.
Vienna is drowning now!
Oh! vienna is drowning now!
Amber clouds burst and split the blackened skies
The old man wakes and he writes
His ink well has spanned ten thousand summer nights
Now all the river's are running wild.
Oh! the earths a raging fireball and the devils gonna stoke It.
Burning down, down, down, down
No~one's seen, no~one's told the joy poet he's drowning
Going down, down, down, down.
Beaches and wastegrounds washed by poisoned seas
The old man lives without machines
He has no wireless, he has no tv
He cannot hear the frightened trees.
Oh! the earths a raging fireball and the devils gonna stoke It.
Burning down, down, down, down
No~one's seen, no~one's told the joy poet he's drowning
Going down, down, down, down
Oh! the earths a raging fireball and the devils gonna stoke It.
Burning down, down, down, down
No~one's seen, no~one's told the joy poet he's drowning
Going down, down, down, down
Burning down, down, down, down
Going down, down, down, down
Burning down, down, down, down.
13. ECHOES
Sun kissed ripples on the sea
Beyond my reach
Your memory it means so much to me
That I can't breathe.
You're an echo, an echo.
Voices blurring, I run like a Gun
And all the echoes of our summer, glimmer in the sun
The weightless waves wash over me
They never seem to fade away.
Cast a pebble to the sea
And stand by me
We're singing songs that echo me
You're all a dream, all a dream, all an
Echo, echo.
The sunset brings evening, and night stock perfumes
And the coldness of the moonlight, crimson is the moon
The weightless waves wash over me
They never seem to fade away.
I sit on a quiet beach
And gaze into the sea
And i think you're everything
To me.
Naked and bleeding, the ocean glistens gold
Waking in the mist and light, dawn is moments old
And the weightless waves wash over me
They're never gonna fade away.
I sit on a quiet beach
And gaze into the sea
And i think of everything
That's happened to me.
La la la la la la la la
I'll dream forever, forever.
14. PLAYGROUND OF LOST SOULS
The winds of change come blowing through my life
The fortune wheel is spinning round the dice
And I travel through the emerald frost
To where the ice watchman sits around the clock.
And it's cold (and it's cold)
So very cold (so very cold)
In the playground (in the playground)
Of the lost souls.
And I'm told (and I'm told)
You never grow old (you never grow old)
In the playground (in the playground)
Of the lost souls.
Cherry oyster's scattered on the beach
Of the crystal ocean that's so far out of reach
So I board the ship of fools
Where the thieves of romance pillage every room.
And it's cold (and it's cold)
So very cold (so very cold)
In the Playground (in the playground)
Of the lost souls.
And I'm told (and I'm told)
You never grow old (you never grow old)
In the Playground (in the playground)
Of the lost souls.
And it's cold (and it's cold)
So very cold (so very cold)
In the Playground (in the playground)
Of the lost souls.
And I'm told (and I'm told)
You never grow old (you never grow old)
In the Playground (in the playground)
Of the lost souls.
What you gonna do when you're lonely?
What you gonna do when it all falls down?
What you gonna do when you're broken?
What you gonna do when the rains come down?
What you gonna say when you can't choose?
What you gonna say when the world goes by?
What you gonna say when it's too late?
What you gonna say when it's time to die?

But when you gonna learn that killing just don't pay
Bohemian
Highway
Bohemian Highway.
Whatcha gonna say to the devils son?
Whatcha gonna do when the hoodoo comes?
Whatcha gonna do when you face his gun?
Whatcha gonna do when the voodoo comes?
When the voodoo comes?
When the voodoo comes?
7. A MAN DRESSED IN BLACK
I see him walking down the street one day
He turns and looks, looks my way
But as I turn to say
He fades away.
He's a stranger in this viscinity
He looks like an agent of mystery
And in the shadows
He walks the city streets.
He's a stranger, clad in black
And like the speed of light he moves through you
You're a man dressed in black
Through the wind and rain, I'll still keep searching for You.
Down avenues and boulevards
He flits through cafe's and city bars
I thought I saw him
By a market stall.
He's like ghost who floats from place to place
One day I'm gonna meet him face to face
But like a rainbow
He leaves no trace.
He's a stranger, clad in Black
And like the speed of light he moves through you
You're a man dressed in black
Through the wind and rain, I'll still keep searching for You.
No face, no trace, a silhouette through mist and haze
This stranger, he's dressed in black
No name, alwaystThe same, he flickers through cinematic Frames
This stranger, he's Dressed in Black.
He's a stranger, clad in black
And like the speed of light he moves through you
You're a man dressed in black
Through the wind and rain, I'll still keep searching for you
For you, for you, for you, for you.
Stranger, stranger
Stranger, stranger.
8. LAST TRAIN TO HELL
Well I'll be leaving
You'll be as free as a bird
Don't you cry now sweet child
'Cos you can take on this world
Didn't mean to hurt you
Didn't mean to make you so sad
I'm as cold as the winter babe
And girl I'm hurting so bad.
Got a gun full of lead
Gonna put it to my head
And then you'll know
I'm on the last train to hell.
I'm out on the freeway
Been a driving for miles and miles
The shadows grow long now
From the ever lasting skies
You know someone once told me
You had the loneliest eyes in the world
But I was blind, i was so blind
And now I want to burn.
Got a gun full of lead
Gonna put it to my head
And then I'll know
I'm on the last train to hell.
Got a gun full of lead
Gonna put it to my head
And blow it off
I'm on the last train to hell.
No more pain
Last train to hell
No more pain sweet child
Last train to hell.
9. MIDNIGHT BLUES
11:59
On a blue sunday evening
Another lazy weekend's gone by
Without your loving baby.
The night air is cold
You know the north wind she blows how she blows
If there was a light in your window girl
That's where I'd be coming home.
But time is on my side.
12:15
Can't get you out of my head, out of my head
You know you hurt me sweet child
With all those bad, sad things that you said.
Monday morning
I feel a blue day is dawning
Do you remember those sweet september skies?
Oh girl, oh girl.
But time she's on my side.
Long lonely days of pain
Can't take heartache again
You got me drowning in my whiskey baby
You got me, you got me
The midnight blues.
Long lonely days of pain
Can't take heartache again
You got me drowning in my whiskey baby
You got me, you got me
The midnight blues.
Long lonely days of pain
Can't take heartache again
You got me drowning in my whiskey baby
You got me, you got me
The midnight blues.
10. THE RAIN POURED DOWN ON ME
I met you under berlin lilac trees
English spy falls for spandau queen
1944 and this war it never yields
Autumn leaves fall down gold and green.
There's danger on the german radio
As the rain it poured down on me
It's crazy our dark hidden secret
But my love for you goes on and on.
I kissed you but you seemed so uncertain
We talked by lanterns for hours in the twilight
I held your hand as we closed the curtains
As the bombs rained down all through the night.
There's danger on the german radio
As the rain it poured down on me
It's crazy our souls in isolation
But your love for me goes on and on.
I saw the rain as it bathed on your pretty face
I caught your eyes as they lit up the sky
Souls scream as the city burns to ash again
Sit in darkness as the sirens wail by.
There's danger on the german radio
As the rain it poured down on me
It's crazy and it's so uncertain
But this war it goes on and on.
Red rains brought blood and flames
Red rains, red rains
This Rain poured down again
Red rains, red rains.
11. FACE THE WORLD
You are my everything
My sea of pearls
I'd swim every ocean
To make you my world.
You're there in the sunshine
I'm here in the rain.
We've gotta face the world, face the world oh oh
We've gotta face the world, face the world oh.
You're there in the twilight
Im here in the haze.
We've gotta face the world, face the world oh oh
We've gotta face the world, face the world oh.
You're there in the bright lights
Im here in the shade.
We've gotta face the world, face the world oh oh
We've gotta Face the world, face the world oh.
We've gotta face the world, face the world oh oh
We've Gotta face the world, face the world oh.
12. THE JOEY POET
Europe is dying 1993
The old man harbours his memories
Violins swimming, swirling through his ears
As the earth is swallowed up by the sea.
Vienna is drowning now!
Oh! vienna is drowning now!
Amber clouds burst and split the blackened skies
The old man wakes and he writes
His ink well has spanned ten thousand summer nights
Now all the river's are running wild.
Oh! the earths a raging fireball and the devils gonna stoke It.
Burning down, down, down, down
No~one's seen, no~one's told the joy poet he's drowning
Going down, down, down, down.
Beaches and wastegrounds washed by poisoned seas
The old man lives without machines
He has no wireless, he has no tv
He cannot hear the frightened trees.
Oh! the earths a raging fireball and the devils gonna stoke It.
Burning down, down, down, down
No~one's seen, no~one's told the joy poet he's drowning
Going down, down, down, down
Oh! the earths a raging fireball and the devils gonna stoke It.
Burning down, down, down, down
No~one's seen, no~one's told the joy poet he's drowning
Going down, down, down, down
Burning down, down, down, down
Going down, down, down, down
Burning down, down, down, down.
13. ECHOES
Sun kissed ripples on the sea
Beyond my reach
Your memory it means so much to me
That I can't breathe.
You're an echo, an echo.
Voices blurring, I run like a Gun
And all the echoes of our summer, glimmer in the sun
The weightless waves wash over me
They never seem to fade away.
Cast a pebble to the sea
And stand by me
We're singing songs that echo me
You're all a dream, all a dream, all an
Echo, echo.
The sunset brings evening, and night stock perfumes
And the coldness of the moonlight, crimson is the moon
The weightless waves wash over me
They never seem to fade away.
I sit on a quiet beach
And gaze into the sea
And i think you're everything
To me.
Naked and bleeding, the ocean glistens gold
Waking in the mist and light, dawn is moments old
And the weightless waves wash over me
They're never gonna fade away.
I sit on a quiet beach
And gaze into the sea
And i think of everything
That's happened to me.
La la la la la la la la
I'll dream forever, forever.
14. PLAYGROUND OF LOST SOULS
The winds of change come blowing through my life
The fortune wheel is spinning round the dice
And I travel through the emerald frost
To where the ice watchman sits around the clock.
And it's cold (and it's cold)
So very cold (so very cold)
In the playground (in the playground)
Of the lost souls.
And I'm told (and I'm told)
You never grow old (you never grow old)
In the playground (in the playground)
Of the lost souls.
Cherry oyster's scattered on the beach
Of the crystal ocean that's so far out of reach
So I board the ship of fools
Where the thieves of romance pillage every room.
And it's cold (and it's cold)
So very cold (so very cold)
In the Playground (in the playground)
Of the lost souls.
And I'm told (and I'm told)
You never grow old (you never grow old)
In the Playground (in the playground)
Of the lost souls.
And it's cold (and it's cold)
So very cold (so very cold)
In the Playground (in the playground)
Of the lost souls.
And I'm told (and I'm told)
You never grow old (you never grow old)
In the Playground (in the playground)
Of the lost souls.
What you gonna do when you're lonely?
What you gonna do when it all falls down?
What you gonna do when you're broken?
What you gonna do when the rains come down?
What you gonna say when you can't choose?
What you gonna say when the world goes by?
What you gonna say when it's too late?
What you gonna say when it's time to die?
15. THE RAIN POURED DOWN ON ME
(See lyrics on track 10)
16. THIS IS WAR
This is my country
This is my world
These are my people
My brothers in arms
This is my england
These are my shores
If you're my enemy
Then this is war.
So will you fight (we'll do it)

So do it now, now, do it now

These are our churches
So wear your poppy grand
This is my england
The flag of saint george
If you're my enemy
Then this is war.
So will you fight (we'll do it)
No compromise (rise to it)
Die with pride (we'll do it)
So do it now, now, do it now
Do it, do it, do it now.
What you gonna do? (we'll fight, we'll fight for you)
What you gonna say? (we'll fight, we'll fight today)
This time, this time, this time oh oh
This time, this time, this time oh oh
What you gonna do? ((we'll fight, we'll fight for you)
So Will you fight (we'll do it)

Do it, do it, do it now oh oh
Hoo-ha.
