Remember Me

Hey! don’t you walk on by…
I won’t let your indiscretion take control
(ba ba ba ba ba ba ba ba ba)
Stay gazing through the looking glass
It’ll hypnotise you: turn you right around
(ba ba ba ba ba ba ba ba do wa!)
Take my hand and hit the floor
show me desire and beg for more
The passion that you want to hold for me…
Remember….Remember Me
This sunshine will show you the way
But one gentle touch will burn you up inside
(ba ba ba ba ba ba do wa!)
Take my hand and hit the floor
show me desire and beg for more
The passion that you want to hold for me…
Take my hand and hit the floor
show me desire and beg for more
The passion that you want to hold for me…
Take my hand and hit the floor
show me desire and beg for more
The passion that you want to hold for me…

Saturn In Her Eyes
05:57
|

|
It doesn’t matter what I do I can’t feel you
No matter what you feel, I won’t be grieved too
No! No! No moon will wax,
No! No! No stars will fall tonight…
She’s got Saturn In Her Eyes
Saturn In Her Eyes
She’s got Saturn In Her Eyes
Saturn In Her Eyes
It blows my heart apart, it’s no secret:
Clowns clouding my mind: it’s not beneath me…
No! No! No moon will wax,
No! No! No stars will fall tonight…
CHORUS:
She’s got Saturn In Her Eyes
Saturn In Her Eyes
She’s got Saturn In Her Eyes
Saturn In Her Eyes
She’s got Saturn In Her Eyes
Saturn In Her Eyes
She’s got Saturn In Her Eyes
Saturn In Her Eyes

Switchblade Love
04:07
|
|||
|
Many times I’ve sat on my head
And many tears I’ve felt me cry.
It’s not important to jump on over,
It’s not at all insurrection lies
How could I even try to defend you
when there’s no love for me to defend?
You’ve blistered all my dreams now
I can’t even be your friend
Your Switchblade Love is making me bleed
Ripping wounds inside my heart
Its killing me
Drive your nails into my flesh
And insult my name and then
Contemplate your own lies
On a scale from one to ten
Your Switchblade Love is making me bleed
Ripping wounds inside my heart
It's killing me
Your Switchblade Love is making me bleed
Ripping wounds inside my heart
It's killing me
Yeah, it's killing me
Oh, it's killing me
Well it's killing me
Ooooh

You Strip Me Bare
04:17
|
|||
|
Burnin’ through the colour of my heart
Driftin’ on a soft-bottomed cotton love
Rise high through the fire
What do you think you are doing to me when you leave me on the floor?
You Strip Me Bare!
You Strip Me Bare!
You say that love’s a fool’s reaction
You Strip Me Bare
It’s bittersweet as I drift in the wind
Wheel-barrowing around and round ten times
Everywhere people stare
They’re eatin’ my hand-rinsed dreams like they are custard creams as I fall to the floor
You Strip Me Bare!
You Strip Me Bare!
You say that love’s a fool’s reaction
You Strip Me Bare!
I can see your eyes are telling me not to worry
I wouldn’t worry as long as you stay here in my arms
You Strip Me Bare!
You Strip Me Bare!
You say that love’s a fool’s reaction to a girl’s self-satisfaction
You Strip Me Bare!

Satisfied (Part 2)
07:29
|

It’s a day in the life of living free
But money is the root of all evil
It’s gonna load up your mind, see the Holy Trinity
So don’t take your time thinking it over…
It’s another day in the life of enemies
And money is still the source of envy
I’m living this life when it seems so empty
So baby hold back all of your tears, can’t you see I’m trying?
I got my hand on the seam, it’s as good as a woman
It’s giving me chills, can’t get to my feet
It’s been a long time a-comin’, this plan of mine
This life keeps rolling, I am wasting time
Today is the day I am gonna start livin’ (ooooh!)
Blue sky hangin’ above and the sun is beating (ooooh!)
I’m gonna take all that good stuff ‘cause you know I need it (oooh!)
Well I’m leaving: I’m gonna shake off all of these blues…
You can’t carry on living with your hands held high
Drop your gun baby and reach for the sky
It’s been a long time woman, you’ve been serving time
I got you some rum, gonna make you mine!
I can’t stop ‘til I’m Satisfied I can’t stop ‘til I’m Satisfied
I can’t stop ‘til I’m Satisfied I can’t stop ‘til I’m Satisfied…. Oh No!
I’m on fire! (I’m on fire!)
I’m on fire! (I’m on fire!)
I’m on fire (I’m on fire!)
I’m on fire!

Winona Ryder

|
I don’t wan to hear any of your pieces of news
Don’t wanna hear any “I Love Yous”
All I wanna do is be with you just say “I approve!
I have missed the bus from this two-horse town
But I will make the next train out of “Hitsville”
Just give me a ride and I will take more of your time than I really need to
Why do I always run from you?
Winona Ryder came to town
with her Jesus sandals and frowns
Winona Ryder came to stay
I thought she’d never go but then
Winona always had some good advices to give away like
Why pour water on a drowning man?
Why pour water on a drowning man?
Why pour water on a drowning man?
Send me a letter, an apology
Can’t you see this means nothing to me?
I've got no time for tea or sympathy
I just want your body next to me
I’ve been on this sleeper now for far too long
I’m getting weary and restless
I wanna close my eyes and sleep;
see all the signs that pass me by
An old petrol station
And too many lights…
Winona Ryder came to town
with her Jesus sandals and frowns
Winona Ryder came to stay
I thought she’d never go but then
Winona always had some good advices to give away like
Why pour water on a drowning man?
Why pour water on a drowning man?
Why pour water on a drowning man
when you know that he can’t swim?

You know you’ve got me licking my lips

You’re winding me up!

You're goin’ up north when I'm heading down south
Your rising steam is making me sweat
And now you're crawling into my net
‘Cause you're winding!
yeah, you're winding!
You know you're winding!
You’re winding me up!

Poor Boy
05:01
|

|
Poor Boy fell in love,
saw a lady drop her glove
Poor Boy gave it back,
her lips were red and her eyes were black
Poor Boy, all alone,
took her hand and he walked her home
Walked her home the longest way,
made a date by the very next day
Poor Boy yook her out!
He took her out then he walked about
Walked about and he’s on his knee
he said to her will you marry me?
Poor Boy didn’t know one thing
on her finger was a golden ring
Poor Boy couldn’t sleep
He couldn’t drink & he couldn’t eat
He couldn’t drink one little drop
waiting for the pain to stop
Poor Boy, what a shame
he never fell in love again
That’s the way it has to be
I should know, the Poor Boy is me!
Poor Boy didn’t know one thing
on her finger was a golden ring
Poor Boy couldn’t sleep
He couldn’t drink & he couldn’t eat
He couldn’t drink one little drop
waiting for the pain to stop
Poor Boy what a shame
he never fell in love again
That’s the way it has to be
I should know, the Poor Boy was me!
