1. MOLOTOV
She brought the gasoline into our place of sin
Where no sheets on beds are clean and walls seem so thin
I'm holding back my fire
I wait for her to begin
She stains her hands for me
How much pleasure can she bring?
We try everything that can't be done
And we're running to explore
Through the fire 'till we catch the mouse
And we can't go wrong all the time
She smiled and turned the key and locked us in our room
Doing time in the times of freedom
Waiting for the doom
As we hear the fire crackle our love begins to bloom
Waiting for the flames to come
This is our pleasuredome
We are everything that can't be done
And we're running to explore
Through the fire 'till we catch the mouse
And we can't go wrong all the time
She ran out of razor blades and got tired of being hired
She bound me to her bed that she purifies with fire
It's now it happens and it happens as a crime
There's time for everything and it happens all the time
We are everything that can't be done
And we're running to explore
Through the fire 'till we catch the mouse
And we can't go wrong all the time
2. WISHING WELL
You can't feed me
I'm been waiting for those who can
You bring me a carriage of wine
And I'm yearning for a beer
You can't see me
Maybe 'cause of the shades I wear
I'm hiding behind the dark brown lenses
Wishing well
Let's say we're by the wishing well
Wishing well
Throw a coin in the fountain
We play with peanuts
Grand Canyon between us
We've borrowed this time
Don't have a minute to spare
Do you wanna feed me?
Do you wanna need me?
No matter what we do you are not unchained
Wishing well
Let's say we're by the wishing well
Wishing well
Throw a coin in the fountain
3. THIN BLOOD
Put down your rifle, you can't shoot them all
There's too many of them now
Don't loose you your grip, man
Wait a brief second and you fall to second place
Look out for the elbows
If you don't wanna feel the taste in a mouth of thin blood
I walk on wires and you make me tremble
You wanna see me crack
You make me be like you - a volunteered kamikaze flyer
My plane's on fire and I say that I'm not afraid
Cause I'm a liar
I don't wanna - do you wanna hate?
I don't wanna - do you wanna hate?
I don't wanna - do you wanna hate?
I don't wanna - do you wanna hate?
The air is full of steel and you're chasing clouds in the rain
The air is full of steel - Do you even know them by name?
The air is full of steel, is full of steel
Burning
My war is over and you still go on
You do someone else's time
You won't be seeing me 'cause all your body fluids will go to waste
I can see it on tv and it doesn't make me weak
Cause it ain't my blood
I don't wanna - do you wanna hate?
I don't wanna - do you wanna hate?
I don't wanna - do you wanna hate?
I don't wanna - do you wanna hate?
The air is full of steel and you're chasing clouds in the rain
Not made out of tears
More precious than your pearls and diamonds
Burning
4. OCEAN BREEZE
Take a bite of my cranium and I won't disappear
Don't need any told-you-so's
Feel the blood taste in my beer
Play with fire, let your fingers fry
I don't need no romance tonight
I've got mine and I hold on tight to my bite
I don't wanna dance, I don't take the change
'though you're cool like an ocean breeze
I don't wanna dance, I don't take the change
'though you're cool like an ocean breeze
I don't wanna dance, I don't take the change
As cool as cool can be
I don't wanna dance, I don't take the change
'though you're cool like an ocean breeze
Come to see how Johnny flies, he jumps down off the roof
Do it now, do it good, do it twice
All the best things comes in two's
I need this like a hole in the head
See, I can't fall of the floor
Here I sit in the clouds of dust and the dust can never rust
I don't wanna dance, I don't take the change
'though you're cool like an ocean breeze
I don't wanna dance, I don't take the change
'though you're cool like an ocean breeze
I don't wanna dance, I don't take the change
As cool as cool can be
I don't wanna dance, I don't take the change
'though you're cool like an ocean breeze
5. RAINCOAT
Brand new like a green tomato
I never used your raincoat
Sometimes I think of you when I soak in the rain
A rainy day some time ago
You said you had to go
Ran out into the rain
Left behind your raincoat
If you ever get wet you know you can fetch your raincoat
If you ever get wet you know you can fetch your raincoat
If you ever get wet... I'll be here with my towel
I don't know where you are
I've looked for you in every bar
No-one remembers you but I do
You're not so easy to find
You make me out of my mind
I don't want to throw your things away
If you ever get wet you know you can fetch your raincoat
If you ever get wet you know you can fetch your raincoat
If you ever get wet... I'll be here with my towel
Brand new like a green tomato
I never used your raincoat
Sometimes I think of you when I soak in the rain
A rainy day some time ago
You said you'd have to go
Ran out into the rain
Left behind your raincoat
If you ever get wet you know you can fetch your raincoat
If you ever get wet you know you can fetch your raincoat
If you ever get wet...
If you ever get wet, I just want you to show
If you ever get wet, in case you don't know
I'd be glad to take you back, I'll be waiting for you
And I also want the money that you borrowed
6. BORNEO
Way low what a place to go
Couldn't live with an eskimo
Raw fish with a cup of snow
Worst of all, no telephone
Below zero in the tent
Not exactly what I meant
You can't sow if you don't reap
You can't sow if you don't reap
Hot love or not, hell I am freezing
There must be some place else to go
My feet don't cope with all the snow
I miss my car and my stereo
God knows we're ready to go
Into jungles of Borneo
Black girl with no decent clothes
Who's first to save her soul?
Here's a place where I feel fine
I can lay down here and die
You can't sow if you don't reap
You can't sow if you don't reap
Hot love or not, hell I am freezing
There must be some place else to go
My feet don't cope with all the snow
I miss my car and my stereo
7. I COULD DIE FOR YOU TONIGHT
Heaven did send me but you did me a wrong
I thought I had already opened your door
When you leave me on a lake with early winter ice
Got no lions feet and there ain't no waves to ride
I could die for you tonight
I could die for you tonight
I could die for you tonight
I could die for you tonight
Please don't want me to, no no
Please don't want me to, no
When I wake up in the cold I need to see you there
I don't wanna be your lover, I wanna be your
When I'm riding through the town, not expected to come home
You have sent me away to fill the graveyards all alone
I could die for you tonight
I could die for you tonight
I could die for you tonight
I could die for you tonight
Please don't want me to, no no
Please don't want me to, no
I am fighting for your cause, I'm paying off the debt
Take the chances I get, win less than I bet
I hold my head up high while I'm burning from inside
Light a light for me and see me through the night
I could die for you tonight
I could die for you tonight
I could die for you tonight
I could die for you tonight
Please don't want me to, no no
Please don't want me to, no
8. JUNKFOOD
Sunday bloody morning
I'm feeling rather old
Yesterday was too much fun
My memories turn cold
Empty whisky bottles sang me my lullaby
Now I'm less alive
Wish I had an alibi
Give me some junkfood
I will survive
Give me some junkfood
I will survive
Wake up in the basement
Concrete as my bed
Life is rougher than I like
Stone mason in my head
If I had a cigarette and
If I had some food
I'd take the gun down from my face
and unload
Give me some junkfood
I will survive
Give me some junkfood
I will survive
9. HOLLYWOOD
She's leaving town with tears in her eyes
I'm not there to comfort
I'm the nicest guy but now in disguise
Won't take long
She'll reach for the stars in her little sky
I'm not there to climb on
And the weatherman says clear skies
Today and tomorrow
She was the prettiest thing I'd laid my eyes on
She was the prettiest thing I'd laid my eyes on
She was the prettiest thing I'd laid my eyes on
oh-oh-oh-oh
oh-oh-oh-oh
She was in pain, I just saw the rain
Making pearls on window
She closed her eyes and I ran away
It rained outdoor
She found the vein, she found the way out
I found it a moment ago
And the weatherman says clear skies
Today and tomorrow
She was the prettiest thing I'd laid my eyes on
She was the prettiest thing I'd laid my eyes on
She was the prettiest thing I'd laid my eyes on
oh-oh-oh-oh
oh-oh-oh-oh
10. SPANKY
I love you when you're mean to me
I love you when you're mean to me
I love you when you're mean to me
I love you when you're having fun
Pointing me with all your guns on my shoulder
Pull on the trigger
I explode
I love you when you serve me bad
Only then you make me glad
I love you when you love to hurt me
I love you when you're mean to me
I love you when you're mean to me
I love you when you're mean to me
I do what I can for you
I cry, I scream
I dry when you're not giving me anything to drink
You send me to work (urgh)
Maybe you love me?
I love you when you're mean to me
I love you when you're mean to me
I love you when you're mean to me
I love you when you're mean to me
I love you when you're mean to me
I love you when you're mean to me
I love you when you're mean to me
I love you when you're mean to me
11. NO SOUL
No souls for sale today
Ship came in and sailed away
No souls for sale for me and you
The ones we've got, they must do
Don't shoot the preacherman for his thoughts
You may skin him alive but only for his gold
There's plenty where that came from
I don't know where, see I don't care
The curious ones don't get old
You may be an angel
But don't spread you wings here, you get shot
You may be an angel
The knife in hands of blind is ready to cut
You may be an angel
But don't spread you wings here, you get shot
You may be an angel
A living dead in foreign land
Though he'd offer them his helping hand
He closed his eyes and never opened them again
Don't steal his hair, he ain't got no soul
You may be an angel
But don't spread you wings here, you get shot
You may be an angel
The knife in hands of blind is ready to cut
You may be an angel
But don't spread you wings here, you get shot
You may be an angel
No parking here anytime
12. FACE LIKE YOURS
His life began in a pile of puke
First a wanted son, but the mother changed her mind
God it's a crime to be born with a face like that
I don't want that brat
He's as ugly as he's fat
Kill that rat
I don't want a face like yours
I don't want a face like yours
I don't want a face like yours
I don't want a face like your horse
Smell of puke goes where he goes
Where he shows his face he makes people puke
He looks like a mjuk kuk
No-one could ever call him a name
The whole crew felt sick when they brought him to a priest
He puked too
I don't want a face like yours
I don't want a face like yours
I don't want a face like yours
I don't want a face like your horse
13. DON'T LOOK BACK
You don't look back when you see me coming through
You don't drive me away 'though it would be okay
You red some of those letters I wrote to you
You read me better than you read your little black book
Whenever you want me baby, I want you
If you didn't want me then so why would you now?
You lick me up, they all say how well you can
You show me the works of your hand for a man
I can do for you tonight, right?
It can take you a while when you find a better bite
When we came in this town
We had our baggage full of gold
When we're leaving it now
They are filled with nothing, typical us
Whenever you want me baby, I want you
If you didn't want me then so why would you now?
What you're doing in this town, we don't need you here
This town is for kicks, you just burn your lips
Well c'mon...
The car is on, is it someone you're waiting for?
Whenever you want me baby, I want you
If you didn't want me then so why would you now?
