Les paroles

1. FACE DOWN

It's true we walk in disbelief
Clutching to our faded glory
Trusted me but I'm a thief
Get down on your knees before me

Worlds collide hate fills my mind
Tension rising no surrender
The street's a place where love is dying
All hail to thee thy legal tender

Now you're gonna end up face down...

At night the vipers rip my flesh
The bitch from hell is feeding
Scratch my wounds to keep them fresh
She likes 'em young 'n' bloody

Now you gonna end up face down...

Good and hate fear and shame
Wasted our disaster
Cuts like cancer in my brain
Man now he's your master

Now you're gonna end up face down
Now you're gonna end up face down
Now you're gonna end up face down
Now you're gonna end up face down


2. NO CRIME

You want your cake and eat it
Better eat it on your own
'Cos I won't be there listening
While you glitter on your throne

I've pleaded with you a thousand times
Still it's not enough
I've spilled my blood there's too much pain
I'm fed up of hanging tough
It brings me down

You can call me crazy girl
That's no crime
I'll admit I'm flaky and a drag sometimes
Always hated stupid rules
That's no crime
Not immaculate conception
That's no crime

You're an expert on integrity
You always want it right
Impeccable divine pedigree
You glow with neon light
I'm drowning in your swamp of love
Fighting just to breathe
Like to love you baby but you know
I've got to leave
It brings me down

You can call me crazy girl
That's no crime
I'll admit I'm lazy and a drag sometimes
Always hated stupid rules
Not immaculate conception
That's no crime
That's no crime
It brings me down

You can call me crazy girl
That's no crime
I'll admit I'm flaky and a drag sometimes
Always hated stupid rules
That's no crime
Not immaculate conception
That's no crime
Just love me for my attitude
You could change your mind
Yeah I'm a low life scum and sometimes rude
That's no crime
As a matter of fact your blazing temper
Twists my mind
You gotta learn humility and draw the line
That's no crime


3. LONG TIME DEAD

When I came down to your riverside
And saw you standing there
Pocketful of Moonbeams
You had henna in your hair
And I never felt so lonely
Got the feeling I can't shed
It might seem like a premonition
But you're a long time dead

Gonna be a long time dead
Misery the devil's in my head

The seasons had already turned
The wind began to howl
A change of fortune is what I need
And there was little doubt
That they had never heard my testimony
Not a single word I said
Well the judge he whispered in my ear
Gonna be a long time dead

Gonna be a long time dead
Misery the devil's in my head

When I came down to your riverside
And saw you standing there
Pocketful of Moonbeams
You had henna in your hair
And I never felt so lonely
Got the feeling I can't shed
It might seem like a premonition
But you're a long time dead

Gonna be a long time dead
Misery the devil's in my head


4. KILLING MACHINE

Make your move make it fast
Do it right could be your last
Iron black cold steel heart
Tear your fucking world apart

On my killing machine my my killing machine
Take you to the brink of madness
It's a killing machine
Like you've never seen
It's a killing machine
Leaves a wake of hate and sadness

Moves stealth like through
The night
Leaves nothing else in sight
Psycatronic suicide
In search of genocide
Knows nothing else but hate
Was made to decimate
Shall roam the world in anger
Till nothing else is standing

I shall give death my kiss
I rule supreme in anger I dream

Make your move make it fast
Do it right could be your last
Iron black cold steel heart
Tear your fucking world apart

On my killing machine my my killing machine
Take you to the brink of madness
It's a killing machine
Like you've never seen
It's a killing machine
Leaves a wake of hate and sadness


5. FADE AWAY

Come to a place that's many miles and years away
A place of such enchantment
Words could never say
A world of mystery pleasures undenied
Come to this place of mine
And walk close by my side

Close your eyes
Close your eyes
Sail away
Wishing well cast a spell
And let's away

Come to a place that's hidden
Just beyond the skies
No need to ask me if this
Love will ever die
No past regret no future near
Shall make you slave
I will be true to you
From far beyond the grave

Close your eyes
Close your eyes
And fade away
Shed the coil
No need to toil
Come far away

Pale crimson lips abound
With eyes of coral blue
A bed of rose and sage these things
I give to you
And woe betide the one who doubts
And loses heart
Come let's away and we shall never part
Never part
Close your eyes
Close your eyes
And fade away
Wishing well cast a spell
And let's away


6. TARANTULA (TRACII INSTRUMENTAL)

(Instrumental)


7. CRYSTAL EYES

With crystal eyes she gazes
Like a desert flower
In the morning rain
She's well aware of every promise made
She's a child of light in a world of pain
Oh let her be free, Holy Zion
Give us eyes to see
Something to rely on
Crystal eyes, I still love you
You're my one desire
Crystal eyes, I can't live without your touch
You are my crystal eyes
Crystal eyes, she don't say much
But she sees right through
Your thin disguise
You'll never know she comes and goes
Slips through the veil of the dead of night
Oh let her be free, Holy Zion
Give us eyes to see
Something to rely on
Crystal eyes, I still love you
You're my one desire
Crystal eyes, I can't live without your touch
You are my crystal eyes
Crystal eyes, she's an angel
That fell to earth like a gift from God
Sweet, serene, skin like cream
My love protects your every thought
Oh let her be free, Holy Zion
Give us eyes to see
Something to rely on
Crystal eyes, I still love you
You're my one desire
Crystal eyes, I can't live without your touch
You are my crystal eyes


8. NOTHING BETTER TO DO

Well it was raining that December
I was turning 23
On my way to Hollywood via Tennessee
I was looking for adventure
I was hooked on L.S.D.
I was dreamin' bout the girls
That were goin' down on me

I'll just stay and spend the night
With you 'cause I know you ain't
Got nothing better to do

Well I was feeling pretty thin
It was lookin' pretty grim
Got a herd of hurdy gurdies
At the Rainbow Bar & Grill
Well she ain't too fuckin' pretty
But she ain't my fuckin' wife
As long as I don't end up
On the back side of her knife

I'll just stay and spend the night
With you 'cause I know you ain't
Got nothing better to do

So I hooked up with a band
Second baddest in the land
Eating sushi in Oklahoma
Smokin' green bud in Japan
But the wheels they keep on turnin'
20 people in the crowd
But I love to hear 'em scream
When we're bringin' down the house

I'll just stay and spend the night
With you 'cause I know you ain't
Got nothing better to do


9. CHAASING THE DRAGON

Chasing the dragon
Chasing the dragon

Standing on the edge of reason
Sailing through my dream
Colors of a hundred seasons
Nothing as it seems
Sand is sweet and love is blue
Rainbows and the moon
Destiny unfolds her arms
And laughter fills my tomb

And I felt the sun's heat upon my wings
But could no stop myself
From flying higher
Chasing, winding, sliding chase the dragon
Morphia desire

Chasing the dragon
Chasing the dragon

And I found myself in a better time
A rose and a velvet glove
Seven seas of mystery
Gifts of gold 'n' love
Silence screams within my head
The dragon calls my name
Gives me comfort gives me peace
Takes away my pain

And I looked into the eye of the needle
Felt the amber flowing through my veins
I ride the white horse

Chasing the dragon
Chasing the dragon

And I felt the sun's heat
Upon my wings
But I could not stop myself
Flying higher
Chasing, winding, sliding chase the dragon
Morhia desire

Chasing the dragon
Chasing the dragon
Chasing the dragon
Chasing the dragon


10. KILL THAT GIRL

Lies only lies lies dirty lies

That's all I hear from you
That's all I hear from you
Mine all the time
That's all I get from you
That's all I get from you
I wanna kill that girl

I gonna take her down to the underworld

Love your love love sour love
Now that's no good for me
Now that's no good for me
Anyone can see that's no good for me
Take only take
Yeah that's your last mistake
Yeah that's your last mistake

I wanna kill that girl
I wanna kill that girl
I gonna take her down to the underworld

Walkie round the garden
Like a teddy bear
Take a piece of misha
While she's lying bare
Lies only lies lies dirty lies

Anyone can see that's no good for me
Take only take
Yeah that's your last mistake
Yeah that's your last mistake

I'll just stay and spend the night
With you cause I know you ain't
Got nothing better to do


11. I'D LOVE TO CHANGE THE WORLD

Everywhere is freaks and hairies
Dykes and fairies
Tell me where is sanity

Tax the rich feed the poor
Till there are no
Rich no more

I'd love to change the world
But I don't know what to do
So I'll leave it up to you

Population keeps on breeding
Nation bleeding
Still more feeding economy

Life is funny
Skies are sunny
Bees make honey
Who need money monopoly

I'd love to change the world
But I don't know what to do
So I'll leave it up to you

World pollution no solution
Institution execution
Black an' white
Rich or poor
Them and us
Stop the war


12. WHO'S IN CONTROL (LET'EM ROLL)

There's an anger on these streets
I see the frustration
Our lives are withered
Like an old man's face
Only one sun from which to seek shelter
If we could stand being stuck in this place

I don't wanna hear about
Everybody's tellin' me
Can we just stop this screamin'

Let 'em roll, now I wonder
Let 'em roll, who's in control

One hungry mouth to feed
It could be your brother
Too many politicians out on the take
Three times as many houses
Losin' their holy
Forgive us Lord there's too much
Money to make

I don't wanna hear about
Everybody's tellin' me
Can we just stop this screamin'

Let 'em roll, now I wonder
Let 'em roll, who's in control

I don't know what to do
I don't know where to turn
I see my lost horizon
Face in a setting sun
I wonder wonder wonder wonder wonder why
A cloud of diesel smoke
Consumes my sky

I don't wanna hear about
Everybody's tellin' me
Can we just stop this screamin'


13. I'M THE ONE

Some people think he's crazy
There's something not quite right about this child
The way he wears his hair the way he walks around

You know there is something wild
Guess I'm not the setting kind
My wheels have gotta turn
Silent night is quite all right
But I prefer to burn

I'm the one you want
I'm the one you want
I'm the one you want
I'm the one you want

Then reputation of my deeds began to spread
Around from town to town men bequeathed
Me gifts of gold women laid their
Naked bodies down they called me son
Of Lucifer they called me special one
I don't care 'bout none of that I drown
Them as they come

I'm the one you want
I'm the one you want
I'm the one you want
I'm the one you want

They tied me to the ship of fools
And cast me out upon a raging sea
For forty nights I sailed alone solitude
It was my destiny
On my return the elders knew
That nothing could be done
So if it's something strange you
Seek then baby I'm the one
I'm the one you want
I'm the one you want
I'm the one you want
I'm the one you want
I'm the one you want
I'm the one you want
I'm the one you want
I'm the one you want


14. WHY AIN'T BLEEDING

Sometimes I think it's all been
A dream people I've met places I've
Seen lover who've sailed through my
Arms and my bed footprints of angels
Where devil's won't tread

And it really makes me smile
When I turn back the years
Cherish the laughter remember the tears
The man I am now is not the man
I was then as time goes by I'll
Tell you my friend

That I'm drunk right now and I need
A cigarette I wish I know some
Way to forget
If I'm bound for hell 'cos of the
Shape I'm in I don't have regrets
I won't change a thing

Why ain't I bleeding 'cos I feel so much pain
Why ain't I bleeding some things never change

Hard times and many a tear I needed
Some shelter rats in the cellar screams
In my head I look in the mirror
I look like I'm dead
I was a king of the road rhythm and blues
Starry-eyed losers drawn
In tattoo's and the man I am now
Is not the man I was then as time
Goes by I tell you my friend

That I'm drunk right now and I need
A cigarette I wish I know some
Way to forget
If I'm bound for hell 'cos of the
Shape I'm in I don't have regrets
I won't change a thing

Why ain't I bleeding 'cos I feel so much pain
Why ain't I bleeding some things never changes


15. KISS OF DEATH

I watched you burn your hand in my flame
Tempting fate again and again
Faith is not enough something's gotta change
Where is the love without pain
Riding on a homebound train
Ticket to a place in the sun
Like a villain on the run train ain't got going home
Don't turn your back on a loaded gun

Well I'm sorry darling I must confess
And as much as I need your caress
You'll keep taking till your very last breath
So put your arms around me
Leave me with your kiss of death

Crying out your heart in the rain
Pouring it all down the drain
When the pain takes control
Touch leaves you cold
It's better sometimes not to prey

Well I guess that's just the way that it goes
Why love dies nobody knows
But I love you till my very last breath
Don't say a word
Just leave me with your kiss of death

Well they told me that you left yesterday
Death is just a heartbeat away
And they both reached the end
Together ascend
Never to be parted again

Well I'm sorry darling I must confess
And as much as I need your caress
You'll keep taking till your very last breath
So put your arms around me
Leave me with your kiss of death
Well I guess that's just the way that it goes
Why love dies no one knows
But I love you till my very last breath
Don't say a word
Just leave me with your kiss of death
