Like An Animal
one mile in the air that's where she
lives : her body looks so thin
and pink and small : dropping eggs from
nervous shaking hands : and swallowing
her fingers as they fall : two
people dance on the edge : three of
us push them away : there's
nowhere to go we're all in this :
but nothing can hurt us at
all : fight her all you want
you'll never win :couldn't we
just once leave her in bed : let
the dry air cut her happy throat :
hide her heart and lose her
happy head : first I was a
murderer then I was a saint : now I
live on stolen time twist and
run like paint : like an animal :
tuesday in the sun nothing
could be worse : not now not
ever not anymore....
like a looking glass girl
run around the chairs in
here comes the book
in a minature world
saw you dance like dice
and tumble to the floor
like a looking glass girl
in a minature world
whirl your disney arms
and jump the merry-go-round
The Umbrella man is shouting
we shake his paper hands
there's mirrors down beneath
our feet so:-"Lets skate down
the street" the Casino man is
laughing he wears a shivering hat
we peel away like tinsel
stick like splinters to the wall
like a looking glass girl
in a minature world
she saw you dressed in rags
in-and-out of a jack-in-the-box
because she's a looking glass girl
in a minature world
whirl your see-saw arms
and ride the catherine wheel
(foot,foot)
Sex-eye-Make-up
your sunday dress : it's the best
thing money can buy : or leave me
on the stairs with my feet in the
air : I think that I'm Jazzy
like Christ : one more cigarette and
the car burns slow : burning like
the body waiting at home : throw
out your teeth and call all your
friends : someone coughing took
away my breath : inches of glass
all shiny and new screaming
laughing-fucks me to death
one more boy full of writhing
white mice : rolls over again in
a london disguise : the blood
bath woman in room number
one : sex-eye make up tonight
she just woke up today to do as she's told : do you
want to touch her?

the book of rules
if you play this game
you won't stay the same
you could win your golden teeth
be a spinning top
use a riding crop
Mr Alphabet says
"smile like a weasel
as I cover you...
cover you in treacle"
we all know impatience
is a sin.. so do as you're
told to do, it's SO rewarding to...
and you could win the tin man's heart
be a chiming clock
lie on the chopping block
Mr Alphabet says
"give me all your money
just to cover you
cover you in honey"
Don't be afraid
There's no marmalade
Don't be afraid
I wouldn't even dream of it!

Punish Me With Kisses
Read Steve Severin's comments!
your morning smile of torture
Someone's evil laugh shoots down my back
Stairs fall like jewels
this green city rains down on me
A disease is under my fingernails
move inside my daydream : like
Your body grows more beautiful
I laid with you for hours
Mouth to Mouth-I asked you to stay
Down seven stairs and first on the left
holds me in its grip : you trace
the taste of yesterday the
bruise upon my lip : you touch
my eyes and hypnotize and
slip inside my heart : I wait for
this forever but we always fall
apart : you want to hold me
closer : and secretly entice : you
take the size of shadowed
men : and punish me w/kisses
every night : this espionage is
sweeter now : now that we're alone
but I meet your eyes and then
despise : all we call our
own : I write my name in
lipstick on the mirror as I
leave : to stay would be too
dangerous : to break the
make believe...
This Green City
shapeless and ageing we start to run
through the tangle of our broken words
this cheap impulse falls so dry
In the maze. I burn down
turn... you turn my skin around
wishing my eyes could look down
down on me...
as we near the door
you fold through my neck
& arms like chrystal
so black, so black with charm & breath
we turn to face the dying sun...
this green city rains down
Orgy
Read Steve Severin's comments!
it stains me like a tattoo
Back on the Rack
aching w/time
your face is familiar
from another crime
and we could swim, we could swim
my little fishes and me
Overgrown senses prickle & spark
the flesh is in the palm of my hand
Back on the Rack
love under will
your face is familiar
from another kill
A tongue explodes into my mouth
a taste of coma & tears
Back on the Rack
my shape of rage
your face is familiar
from another cage
and we could swim....
Perfect Murder
fingers in a glove : twisting round
and round and round : round and round
and round with love! : the meeker
sleeker circle girls dressed in docile
white : spinning on a hill they follow
the dracula kite : the first idea
flew thin and uninvited from
the sky : I reached out my
hands and held the knife of
ice : very thin red water
flowed underneath my skin : I
turned their eyes blue children :
the perfect murder : wait until
the darkest coldest summer
nights that's when it starts
but if you blink you'll miss
the fun you'll lose their
pretty hearts
Relax (instrumental)
Mouth To Mouth*
with evry move you make
Your body grows more beautiful
with every bite I take
You won't believe I love you
it's too stupid for words
So I lick your trembling lips
and use your hands to feed the birds
staring at your face
I laid with you for hours
remembering your taste
And when the morning came
it splattered us in light
I think I left you sleeping there
I think I left you sleeping
Mouth to Mouth-but you're slipping away
Arch your back and hold your breath
A million fat girls and a million fat man
Couldn't put me back together again.
