NOBODY ELSE WILL KNOW
- ANIMALS
- WE DON’T BELIEVE IN LOVE NO MORE
COME IN FROM THE COLD
We saw the devil run,
To the hills and hide,
Now he lives in the mountains,
And only comes out at night
To take us to water, to drink deep and hold tight
We rode this river wild, when our hearts were both on fire
Now its houses of red and white through stinging salt in tired eyes
Stinging our tired eyes
So with a barbaric yalwp I cryCome in !
Come in from the cold !
My body is broken, the devil, he knows
He smells blood cos love ain’t easy no more
So batten the hatches and bolt all the doors
And I’ll hold you in my arms, so there won’t be no false alarms
When you come in, come in out of the cold.
WE DON”T BELIEVE IN LOVE NO MORE
We were just taking our last dance and chasing our demons
across the sky – Praying for the night to come, show mercy and cover us in its sweet, sweet lies
- In it sweet, sweet lies -We’ll dance, lets take our last dance here.Why are we racing to make a heart beat faster ?
When I look into their eyes then I get my answer -
We don’t believe in love no morePlease wake me up when this dance is over because I don’t
want to see your face – Just show me your scars and your broken heart – So I can keep believing that we’re all the same – We hear the static scream out, from neon billboards it shouts“You need much more than you’ve got, you can’t believe in
love, you need some other drug, because nothing,
no nothing you already have is enough”So tell me – Why are we racing to make a heart beat faster ?
When I look into their eyes then I get my answer -
We don’t believe in love no more.Why do we race to make hearts beat faster ?
I look in their eyes and I get my answer -
Its we don’t believe in love
No we don’t believe in love
We don’t believe in love no more.
ANIMALS
All I want to do tonight is dance – But baby, not like that – No not like that – Soon Animals and Robots will fade to black So lets watch the Robots dance – Lets watch the robots dance
Cos we’re all Animals – Sure as the stars shine down on us – Yeah we’re all Animals – So baby check your pulse.
Take a thumb and two fingers and wrap them round your wrist, Yeah baby check your pulse – I’ll check you off my list
We’re all Animals so check-check your pulse – We’re all Animals
Take a thumb and four fingers, and baby make a fist – I need the sweetest shot, straight from your lips
I don’t wanna dance like a Robot – Just wanna feel it when my heart stops – Don’t wanna dance like a Robot – Just wanna dance, dance, dance with you. Cos we’re all Animals – Sure as the stars shine down on us – Yeah we’re all Animals – So baby check your pulse.
MAGINOT LINE
take the red out my face make my eyes both the same loosen my tongue just enough so I can sing in these chains sing in these chains again
and we’ll sweep the ticker tape thats left from the parade into the gutter like glitter – it won’t leave a trace and we can sing in these chains again
cos theres still a little bit, still a little bitter taste left in your mouth yeah, theres still a little bit, still a little bitter taste left in your mouth
so you hold your breath, and i’ll hold mine
and hand in hand we’ll waltz the maginot linetake down your defences, move close to the flame we’ll suck out the air until darkness is all that remains and we’ll sing in these chains again
still a little bit, still a little bitter taste left in your mouth still a little bit, still a little bitter taste left in your mouth
so you hold your breath, and i’ll hold mine
and hand in hand we’ll waltz the maginot line
SUNFLOWER
I think I’m coming round, I think I’m coming back
Since I hit the ground when I felt you pack
That sucker punch, that I love so much
Always gets me drunk on youPull me out pretty Sunflower Hold me down, pull me round Help me out of this rainshower Hold me down, pull me round Hold me down, pull me round My Sunflower
Since the summers gone and the bottom fell out All of these winter flowers, they left such little doubt I’ve got to scrape myself out from the roof of your mouth
Bring it on, bring it on now baby Bring it on, bring it on now baby Come and have a go if you think your good enough.
LUCKY BOY
My father said to me boy you don’t know your luck
Or what it means things get tough -
So come up take your medicine, just suck it up -
When too much is just not enoughSo listen up listen hard boy
You don’t know how lucky you are, boy
You don’t know how lucky you are, boyMy father said to me boy tell me all you know -
Of love and life when they get cold -
How flying sling and arrows and dumb sticks and stones
Can bloody tired hearts and bonesHe said look in my eyes, look at my face -
Look in the mirror boy – you’re a disgrace
A disgrace – You’re a disgraceYou say that they’re all so beautiful and vain -
But you are no different boy, you’re just the same -
You should hang your head in shameYou should hang your head in shame
You should hang your head in shameSo listen up listen hard boy
You don’t know how lucky you are, boy
You don’t know how lucky you are, boy
DANCE UNTIL THE MORNING COMES
I’ve got a secret and I’m gonna keep it alive till I know that its true
It fizzes and darts and it spits and it sparks
Through my head makes it so hard to moveSo what your gonna do when it all comes crashing down ?
You take a quick one-two, and then you hit the ground -
And from the place in which you fell, no nothing seems the
same – so kiss the dirty ground on this road you made
Won’t you lie to me – sing me a song
We’ll dance until the morning comes -
And when the morning comes it won’t be long -
Till we dance to the beat of the shots of a gunWe’ll dance until the morning comes
We’ll dance until the morning comesSo take everyone you know, and everyone you ever knew
Round them all up and stick them in the same room
And tell them everything you know and everything you ever
knew is standing my your side staring back at youSinging – lay down beside me and tell me a story so good I can’t believe that its true
It fizzes and darts and it spits and it sparks through my head makes it so hard to moveWon’t you lie to me – sing me a song
We’ll dance until the morning comes -
And when the morning comes it won’t be long -
And when the morning comes I lay down my gun
And when the morning comes I throw down my gun
Cos its broken and useless and dumb.So take everyone you know, and everyone you ever knew
Round them all up and stick them in the same room
And tell them everything you know and everything you ever
knew is standing my your side staring back at youCut off my head and turn me upside down -
Shake me till all of my secrets fall out -
Shake me and shake me and shake me – its true
Don’t wanna grow up and never wanted to.
POPPY FIELDS
Oh we haven’t come so very far at all my baby
I’ve sunk this gorgeous bomb into my tiny, dirty skull before
But this time baby i’m gonna spit it out,
Just like the words are poison in my mouthSo let me catch my breath
Just let me catch my breathOh you are so beautiful my love
Oh you are just so beautiful my loveI’ve got to tell you just how lovely you are
Cos If I don’t I’ll fall and maybe the cuts will scarOh you are so beautiful my love
Oh you are just so beautiful my love
v That I wanna run, run, run through poppy fields chewed up
by bombs just to be with you
CHERRY BLOSSOM TREE

RATTLESNAKE
The night was cool and clear as glass and I walked out into the grass
With feathers and blood in my teeth
I swear to God, the Ghost and Father that Sometimes its just so much harder to hold your breath than to breathe
So shake my hand, and I’ll spit on the ground
You should cover your glass when you turn around
Cos son you know you’re in rattlesnake country now
‘Drink the good water down’ ‘Drink that good water down’
Then wipe the blood from your mouth – cos I told you“I’m a Rattlesnake, in the grass, pick me up
Take me high up the mountain, we’ll take off the gloves
I’ll rattle your bones if you rattle my cage
So shake, shake your rattle to keep me away”Shake, shake your rattle
Shake it, shake it for goodness sake
Cos if I’ve got the tongue and the teeth
Then I must be a RattlesnakeShoot to kill or shoot to mame
Baby life moves so fast its all the same
I lick my trigger finger and check the wind
Don’t know why cos my heads point blank as I take aim
And fall down to my knees and pray
To god knows who, from god knows where
And as I’m spinning I remember this
Your heart is a weapon the size of your fist
So be gentle, be gentle with meSo shake, shake your rattle
Shake it, shake it for goodness sake !
Cos if I’ve got the tongue and the teeth
Then I must be a Rattlesnake
