There’s a couple at the bottom bar
And they’re keeping it together
for that great social following
He slicks back his hair he wears all black now and
He’s the Man you wanna be
The Cape Town strangler has gotten us all
Just look at the way you talk to me
I could be some great messiah but my ego just won’t let me
Or will it? Get down
Can someone summon up a demon
And he can explain to me
Why i can’t feel love anymore
I dial 666 but that man
He don’t answer my fucking calls
And on the dustry street with the windows down
Baby I’ll make you feel electric
There’s no stopping us now cause
I’m feeling animalistic
So tell me who do you love?
Am I the one you’re thinking of outside
45 De Villiers Street
I heard you got somebody new to smudge that lipstick
And you got a better place to hide
He makes you late for social events
He kisses your cheek in the car outside
But you will still wait for me at the bar while he moves his car
And I don’t really give a fuck
You said, ‘Vampire King you ain’t nothing like him but I want you more and more than ever now’

Self Preservation

So tell me what you want me to be
I’ll do anything girl
Just to see
You
And whatever happened to Self Preservation
Here I sit at some lonely station
Waiting for you
There must be Valhalla behind those eyes
Angel Michael can you sympathise
With the conclusion
Offered to me
A thousand love songs aimed at you
Like crashing planes at low altitude
Wishful thinking baby say, ‘I do’
I do
You got your eyes on the prize tonight
Just tell me you’re ok
Shakespearean esque declarations of love
I’ll say them slowly
And I can feel it when you move
Slither around me
Constrict my vision you’re all I see

Concord
04:58
|
|||
Oh where do we go?
Radio Moscow, Radio Europe
I don’t think you know
But answer me when you’re on the bridge
Can you see the concord
Flying
Overhead?
Walk me to my car
And I’ll walk you to the stars
I can see your eyes are red
We can’t be very far
Can you see the concord
Flying
Overhead?

I Only Want You

I only want you when I want you
I only need you when I’m lonely
I only want you when I want you
I only need you when I’m lonely
Now I’m everyone’s baby
Tell me girl
Do you miss me
I know that I can be better
I know that I can forget her
Oh my Serpent Queen
You mean too much to me
I must destroy all the evidence
Yes
Oh no!
Not another silique
I need that pale pale skin
To Destroy me
I know that I can be better
I know that I can forget her
I know I can be better
I know she is forever

Automatic Expectation
Systematic Communication
I want
Automatic Infatuation
Automatic Expectation
Situations feeling good
Nurmberg in the summertime
You got the key to the lovers suite
In my mind

Lover Boy

I can see the sweat dripping down your spine
(It’s sinking in)
Tell me were you ever really mine?
All dressed in black and now you’re under attack
And those neon lights and black angels won’t send you back to me
Lover Boy
What happens now?
In that dark room say something special now
Youre alone with her say something special now
Cause you’re the one in black and you’re ready to attack
And those neon lights and black angels won’t send you back to her

Sunday
06:24
|
|||
Sunday morning forever now
And without warning you’re coming down
And as the light kisses your pale skin
I know I can begin again
So lets get married in Venice
Wear black for me baby
It’s so easy
To be your slave
And as the light kisses your golden hair
I wonder what am I doing here
