“Blue Jean Youth”

Face to face
Arms embrace
Everything in place
Show me your blue jeans

Tell me I’m the one
Sew your patches on
My heart on your sleeve
Remember your blue jeans
Your blue jeans

Show me what you love
Love love
Oh oh oh
Is it things you love?
Is it things you love?

Show me what you love
Love love
Oh oh oh
Is it things you love?
Is it things you love?

A favorite record spun
For an iron lung
Such a rough trade
Show me your blue jeans

The words you say
A cold wave
What difference does it make
Remember your blue jeans
Your blue jeans

Show me what you love
Love love
Oh oh oh
Is it things you love?
Is it things you love?

Show me what you love
Love love
Oh oh oh
Is it things you love?
Is it things you love?

I got one more song
But the tape has run
On a teenage love
Show me your blue jeans
Your blue jeans

Show me what you love
Love love
Oh oh oh
Is it things you love
Is it things you love

 

 

“Bombs Away”

Bombs, bombs away
Dance all night, let’s die today
Bring em out, throw your grenades
Bombs on the way

Lay low lay lo lo lo lo
Lay low lay low low low
Stay low stay lo lo lo lo
Lay low lay low low low

Check your head down high
Put your guns to the sky
Lick the dragon fire
Gonna get Shanghai’d

Hai, High, Hi…

Bombs bombs on the way
Shut the door before it’s too late
Under ground, that’s where we stay
Pull up to my bunker, baby

Lay low lay lo lo lo lo
Lay low lay low low low
Stay low stay lo lo lo lo
Lay low lay low low low

Check your head down high
Put your guns to the sky
Lick the dragon fire
Gonna get Shanghai’d

Hai, High, Hi…

Lay Low…

Check your head down high
Put your guns to the sky
Lick the dragon fire
Gonna get Shanghai’d

You can close your eyes
Leave your mind behind
Let the dragon fly
Sky’s on fire!

“Feed Me Diamonds” 

Lie with me, lie to me
C’mon dismantle me
Do it slowly, oh

My hands, my feet
My voice – take everything
Reduce it all to crystal blackness

‘Cause blind discipline is useless
What’s the good in being good?

So go ahead feed me diamonds
Feed me diamonds
Feed me diamonds
Diamonds
Feed me diamonds

A look, a glance
A gesture can mean everything and nothing
A sentiment adrift in crystal blackness

Oh (no)

I won’t pursue, I won’t.
But I can’t stop it either (I-THA)
I’ll let the world make it’s decision
No matter the consequences

What’s the good in being good?

So go ahead feed me diamonds
Do what you want to
Feed me diamonds
Bleed me slowly
Feed me diamonds

Feel my heart beating
Indulge completely
Feed me diamonds

Bleed me
Keep me believing
Why wont you save me
Feed me diamonds

Oh oh oh o-oh

Blind discipline is useless
What’s the good in being good?

So go ahead feed me diamonds
Do what you want to
Feed me diamonds
Bleed me slowly
Feed me diamonds
Diamonds
Feed me diamonds
Feed me diamonds

“Sooner or Later”

Separated,
Suffocated
A dissolution, gone

Frozen heartbreak,
Dead in the water
We tell ourselves we’re fine

Standing waves
Interference
Make us change our view

Sooner or later
We all drink the poison,
But i’ll never let you

It’s the salt that makes us lonely
And it’s the sting that sends us homeward
Sooner or later, we’re all pretenders
But i’ll never let you

Oh, oh, oh, sooner or later, sooner or later
Oh, oh, oh, sooner or later, we’re all pretenders
Oh, oh, oh, sooner or later, sooner or later
Oh, oh, oh, sooner or later, we’re all pretenders

Simple moments
Vanish quickly
When they’re oversold

All the birds caught out
In the sea change
Will be downed for gold

Feathers floating
On the surface
Evaporating oh oh oh

Sooner or later
We slip into vapor
But I’ll never let you,

Its the salt that makes us lonely
And it’s the wind that sails us homeward
Sooner or later, we all surrender
But I’ll never let you go

I’ll never let you go
I’ll never let you go
I’ll never let you, i’ll never let you go

Oh, oh, oh, sooner or later, sooner or later
Oh, oh, oh, sooner or later, we all surrender
Oh, oh, oh, sooner or later, sooner or later
Oh, oh, oh, sooner or later, we all surrender

“Bang Bang Bang”

Un deux trois
Bang bang bang

MNDR:
Feathers
I’m plucking feathers
One by one by one
No more skylarking
Around my head
You’re in formation
But there’s no hiding
By moulting feathers

Q-Tip:
On the plane, on my brain, ’bout to do the sho’
40k contract, take it out the do’
Dice, symbolize my life, roll ’em on the flo’
From your grubby hands, as you hand the grand stand
You live a shitty life, we live a bon, bon vie
Hotter than the book, while we watch the tv
Think you got us fooled, who? never again
First time, shame on me, second time, your time will end

No way
Bang your de-ead
Paint your silhouette
Je te plumerai la tete
Je te plumerai la tete

On no, oh no, oh no

Bang your de-ead
Alouette
Paint your silhouette
Je te plumerai la tete
Je te plumerai la tete

On no, oh no, oh no

No way, no
The clock is ticking forward
No way
It’s just a cruel, cruel world

Q-tip:
Cruel world is fittin’, they got us all hittin’
With late night divisions, and lab app decisions
But based with decisions, to fight a fricassée
And you’ve clearly decided, on how to handle me
Difficile, immbocile, is it fake, is it real
Are we dying on our feet, are we trying in our sleep
There’s a rumour goin’ ’round, ’bout the suits runnin’ town
If you look into the sky, them birds fly high, high, high

MNDR:
Numbers, you fly by numbers
You’re logging hours hours, and don’t see the big picture
Over your shoulder, you’ll get no last words
Because it’s too late, you’ve clipped your own wings (your own wings)

No way
Bang your de-ead
Paint your silhouette
Je te plumerai la tete
Je te plumerai la tete

On no, oh no, oh no

Bang your de-ead
Alouette
Paint your silhouette
Je te plumerai la tete
Je te plumerai la tete

On no, oh no, oh no

We’re never gonna, believe in, the stories, that you’re weavin’
We’re never gonna, believe in, the stories, that you’re weavin’
We’re never gonna, believe in, the stories, that you’re weavin’
We’re believin’ in the proof, we’re believin’ in the truth
We’re believin’ in each other, not you, you, you

Stories (you with the tall tales), how many stories (so many tall tales)
We climb the structure (you scale the ladder)
You build it higher (you make us madder)
We take our aim (so now we’re bearin’ off)
You perch above your nest ( gotcha in your charms)
The stories in your head (it’s a crazy _______)
That’s what got you dead

No way, no
The clock is ticking forward (as the time just ticks away)
No way
It’s just a cruel, cruel world (cruel, cruel world)

No way
Bang your de-ead
Paint your silhouette
Je te plumerai la tete
Je te plumerai la tete

On no, oh no, oh no

Bang your de-ead
Alouette
Paint your silhouette
Je te plumerai la tete
Je te plumerai la tete

On no, oh no, oh no

Un, deux, trois
No one ever does it like that anymore
Bang, bang, bang
When feathers fly you deny everything (alouette)

Un, deux, trois
No one ever does it like that anymore
Bang, bang, bang (alouette)
When feathers fly you deny everything, yeah

Oh no, oh no, oh no
