Do you feel alright?
Calling it a night?
Stand close to me
I'm a healer
Lock your eyes on mine
I can stop you from falling
Just gotta be a believer
Medicine man gonna touch you with a feather
Gonna help you forget all those nights
And those days when you were awake
Better get a plan
Better find out what you need
Gonna cut you with a knife
Make you bleed
For days
He's a healer
Lock me in your sights
Gonna keep you from feeling
Now you're a believer
Medicine man gonna touch you with a feather
Gonna cut you with a knife
Make you bleed
For days
He's a healer
Medicine man gonna touch you with a feather
Gonna help you forget all those nights
And those days when you were awake
Better get a plan
Better find out what you need
Gonna cut you with a knife
Make you bleed
For days
He's a healer
Medicine man gonna touch you with a feather
Gonna help you forget all those nights
And those days when you were awake
Better get a plan
Better find out what you need
Gonna cut you with a knife
Make you bleed
For days
He's a healer
For days
He's a healer
For days
He's a healer

Dead End
04:05
|
|||
|
Wheel out the sun
Where do all the pretty girls go when the rain comes?
They're all taken anyway
They're close enough to touch, but they can still get away
My world could have been your world
Could've been a done deal
Could've been
I could have been in
Your World, hangin' with your friends
Could have been a dead end
I saw your mother
She was steppin' off a train at the station
She was swept up and taken away
She was close enough to touch
But I had nothing to say
My world could have been your world
Could've been a done deal
Could've been
I could have been in
Your World, hangin' with your friends
Could have been a dead end
Now I'm swept away
I wept all day
Knowing that I was the one
Who got in your way
I got in your way
Now I'm swept away
Running with you and your friends … I
I think I know how this ends
My world could have been your world
Could've been a done deal
Could've been
I could have been in
Your World, hangin' with your friends
Could have been a dead end
My world could have been your world
Could've been a done deal
Could've been
I could have been in
Your World, hangin' with your friends
Could have been a dead end

Vinyl Mine
03:55
|

|
I was flying one day across the sky you see
When I saw a girl was looking up at me
She said where are you going at such rapid speed
I said why don't you come and find out with me
I'm a vinyl mine for you, baby
You don't need nobody else
The sharpest needle I can find for you, baby
I've never been no one else
And if the truth be told
I'm not really too old for you, sugar
The sharpest needle I can find for you, baby
I'll never be no one else
I was flying
I've never been no one else
I was flying
It looks like we're dancing, but we're running on the spot
We can keep the beat, but it takes everything we got
I'm a vinyl mine for you, baby
You don't need nobody else
The sharpest needle I can find for you, baby
I've never been no one else
And if the truth be told
I'm not really too old for you, sugar
The sharpest needle I can find for you, baby
I'll never be no one else
I was flying

Summer Junkie
02:59
|
|||
|
There was that one song they dropped
We're loaded
Hey, you can't get no cabs to come here
She was all arms and legs
I was all lines and pegs
I was calling cabs and signing off
Standing up straight and looking tough
When the lights came on we all looked rough
And there's a dog in the backseat biting the breeze
No fixed plans, just taking it easy
I don't wanna let this summer go
… no
And I still don't know how to get up for work
And I still don't own the nice things
I want everything in spades
And I never did do the right thing
And I never went back to school
I had too many things I needed to do
And there's a dog in the backseat biting the breeze
No fixed plans, just taking it easy
I don't wanna let this summer go
… no
Taking it easy ... taking it easy
I'm a summer junkie
Taking it easy ... taking it easy
I'm a summer junkie
I'm just taking it easy, so light and breezy
I'm a summer junkie
Just taking it easy, can't even see me
I'm a summer junkie
And there's a dog in the backseat biting the breeze
No fixed plans, just taking it easy
I don't wanna let this summer go
… no
And I still don't own the nice things!
And there's a dog in the backseat biting the breeze
(I was all lines and pegs)
No fixed plans, just taking it easy
(There was that one song they dropped, we're loaded)
I don't wanna let this summer go
… no

Man Of Your Dreams
03:29
|
|||
|
If I was your boyfriend
I'd treat you badly
When you dumped me
I'd react badly
I wouldn't know what had
Just hit me
I'll just go inside
You pretend you never met me
I'm the man of your dreams (repeated)
I'll speak quietly
So you don't hear me
Do things my way
Or you'll have good reason to fear me
I'll hear them all
All your good and bad screams
I'm the man of your dreams
I'm the man of your dreams (repeated)
You'll get used to having me around
When I'm not, you'll get down
You'll get used to having me around
When I'm not, you'll get down
At first I'll treat you right
Pick you up after work
But I'm really Mr Not Quite Right
And if you ever change your mind
I'll cut up all your clothes
I'm the man of your dreams (repeated)
… I'm dreamy

Way Out
03:42
|

|
We're open for business
Let me show you around this mess
Come on now, you want this
You know now you can't resist
I spent a little time today
Putting things back into place
I found myself in a place there was no fear
Give me a love bite
A new motorbike
Another late night
Way out
In the warm night
I might pass by
I'm just on my
Way out
Come over
Don't miss this
Let me show you I mean business
Your love's right
You top my list
Stay the night tonight … tonight
Stay with me … ohh tonight!
I spent a little time today
Putting things back into place
I found myself in a place there was no fear
Give me a love bite
A new motorbike
Another late night
Way out
In the warm night
I might pass by
I'm just on my
Way out
Stay with me … ooh tonight … tonight!
I spent a little time today
Putting things back into place
I found myself in a place there was no fear
Give me a love bite
(I spent a little time today)
A new motorbike
(Putting things back into place)
Another late night
Way out
In the warm night
(I spent a little time today)
I might pass by
(Putting things back into place)
I'm just on my
Way out
Way Out
Way Out
Ooh tonight … tonight

Safe Word Is Highrise
03:56
|
|||
|
Let's take a drive
You know there's fucking millions of cars
High-five me now that I'm gone
I got high tonight
I'm not supposed to
But I can still drive alright
I guess
She likes his jeans and his nice side
She wants it all contained in a safe word
The view up here from the highrise
… it's the best
I got bootloads
And it's a bargain at ten times the price
My demon's got a bright red greedy streak
And a mean look in it's eyes
I don't write (so good)
But I can read what's in your pretty eyes
Hey … Huh!
I don't need no shirt (to dance)
I got your name across my chest
She likes his jeans and his nice side
She wants it all contained in a safe word
The view up here from the highrise
… it's insane
She likes his jeans and his nice side
She wants it all contained in a safe word
The view up here from the highrise
… it's the best

Teeth & Hair
04:17

|
You can go anywhere you want
You can do anyone you wanna do
But ya gotta have nice teeth and hair (oh yeah)
Be a popular resident
Or maybe one day the president
If you got nice teeth and hair (oh yeah)
Hey, Ladies …
You can have all the clothes you want
You can act like a total cunt (in a restaurant)
As long as you got great tits and ass (oh yes)
Anything you want
The world will hand it over
Such a pretty picture
It can't resist ya tonight
Anything you want
The world will hand it over
Such a pretty picture
It's getting at ya tonight
And your life is written in your eyes
And your life is there in your eyes
… your eyes!
Don't forget …
Next time someone's pushing you around
Or trying to be some sort of big shot
They came into this world with no teeth … no hair
Anything you want
The world will hand it over
Such a pretty picture
It can't resist ya tonight
Anything you want
The world will hand it over
Such a pretty picture
It's getting at ya tonight
And your life is written in your eyes And your life is there in your eyes
And your life is written in your eyes And your life is there in your eyes
And your life is written in your eyes And your life is there in your eyes

Sooky Face
02:36
|
|||
|
Enthroned in his corner with a sooky face
He follows all the action as it happens
But he dare not say a thing
He sights seven sycophants
He'd never take advantage … honest
There ain't no happy ending waiting for the king
When you can't make sound, and there's darkness all around
Then the sky's a ship, and you'll never swim to it
When you can't make sound, and there's darkness all around
Then the sky's a ship, and you'll never swim to it
REPEAT
Returned to his owner, he knew the pack would soon forget the time he ran the action, threw them scraps and kept them thin
These sly slaves and sycophants, he never could have managed without
So now he wonders if he ever was the king
Sometimes he wonders if he truly was the king
Everybody wants to know if this shit means anything
... means anything
When you can't make sound, and there's darkness all around
Then the sky's a ship, and you'll never swim to it
When you can't make sound, and there's darkness all around
Then the sky's a ship, and you'll never swim to it
REPEAT
Reunited with his son, he threw his guns back in the ocean
Then took his time to tell the things that he had seen
He had sideswiped the sycophants, learnt a new dance
But he would never be king

Love Yourself
02:47
|

|
Your'e all class
But you can stick this here groove up your ass
Ask me why
Coz I can see way back in the past
You don't call back
I left those messages, but I can't say why
You don't respond
So I'm just saying so-long to you
Nobody loves you like you love yourself (POW!)
Nobody loves you like you love yourself (POW!)
If I could speak my mind
I just might
If I could see deep inside you
It's empty as the night in there
When you come kissy facing
I'm asking you why (why?)
And when you're updating
I never reply
Coz I don't care
Nobody loves you like you love yourself (POW!)
Nobody loves you like you love yourself (POW!)
Nobody loves you like you love yourself (POW!)
Nobody loves you like you love yourself (POW!)
Nobody loves you like you love yourself (POW!)

Bobby Don't Dance
03:00
|
|||
|
Faces, wine stains, pretty feathers
Writing all over the floor
She wrote your name in your colour
Everyone saw
The night drew back … coughed you up
Then wished you luck
Wearing those jeans you lost in the fire
You were way too high
Way too high to ever give a fuck
And way too wasted to see it and duck
You got great hair
But Bobby don't dance
When you move like you do
He talks with his hands
No Bobby don't dance
I never wanted this
I never wanted this
How could it come to this?
How could it come to this?
Oww!
Now get me out of this
Get me out of this
Please!
Get me out of here
You got great hair
But Bobby don't dance
When you move like you do
He talks with his hands
No Bobby don't dance
Way too wasted to ever give a fuck!
Way too wasted to ever give a fuck!
Way too wasted to ever give a fuck!
Way too wasted …
No Bobby don't dance
No Bobby don't dance
Way too wasted to ever give a fuck!
Way too wasted to ever give a fuck!
Way too wasted to ever give a fuck!
Way too wasted …
No Bobby don't dance
… to ever give a fuck!

Seaford Beach
03:43
|
|||
|
I used to climb a tree out back
To learn the language of the sky
I lived alone inside my mind
I can see all the way to Seaford Beach
There's a sky down there that nobody here can see
High up in the tea-tree
Nobody look for me
Don't no-one bother me
I can see all the way to Seaford Beach
There's a sky down there that nobody here can see
High up in the tea-tree
Nobody look for me
Don't no-one bother me
One day I drove the old Beach Road
Wanted to feel the feel of home
I sat alone in my old car
And wondered how far I could really go
I can see all the way to Seaford Beach
There's a sky down there that nobody here can see
On the edge of the city
Nobody look for me
Don't no-one bother me
Sometimes it's boring when the weather's just fine
The sky's so cloudy, yet it's blue in my mind
And some days I wonder if I'll ever go home
Go home …
I can see all the way to Seaford Beach
But there's a sky down there only astronoughts could reach
The dead centre of reality
It's not enough for me
Never enough for me
It's not enough for me
It's not enough for me
It's not enough for me
It's not enough for me ...
