Supernatural
Built a king on compliments
Charisma and advertisements
Still they see him shimmer ephemeral
It ain't supernatural
No, it ain't supernatural
Supernatural maybe

It was an out of body experience
Yes I flew around the hospital walls
Intravenous demerol
And it weren't supernatural
No, it weren't supernatural
Supernatural maybe

A sudden smell of hay
A certain view
Sparked off a case of the deja vu
Is it inexplicable?
No, no, it ain't supernatural
No, it ain't supernatural
Supernatural maybe.

Get Bizzy With The Fizzy
Well...I might just consider this
If you don't let me down
If you can keep me happy
Well you can sit around
Now I don't care for sycofants
They drive me round the bend
Then if you can't control yourself
Then let's just keep being friends


Let's make out in the back of your car
Let's going driving and toodlin' around
We can always get lost in a crowd
Are you ready to get deep down
Woohoo
Woohoo

Now there's something you should know about
I'm cronically depressed
Internalise my hatred
And sacrifice my self
Now I am busy Saturday
But I am free tonight
And I might have to sort you out
If you don't do it right



Get bizzy with the fizzy baby [4x]



Get bizzy with the fizzy baby (Uhuhuh..uhh!) [4x]

Driving Lesson
Car, car, car
Car, car, car

Let's get behind the wheel
We'll go driving
To the mountains
To the rooftops

We can take it nice and slow
I'll be driving
To the icebergs
To the edges

Car, get in the car
Car, get in the car

Heading to the clouds
Past the buildings
By the harbor
Through the storm

Tear across the page
By the marker
Leave the light on
By the boy's side

Car, get in the car
Car, get in the car

I can make an honest man of you
I can make you clean if you want me to
I can make you go very far
Just take the car

Get in the car
Car, get in the car

Take the car (gotta feel to make it real).

Deadwood
Handcuffed in the present tense
Variations on your violence
Mind games and pretty girls
A cracked song in the universe
I think it's time that I showed you what I'm made of
I'm afraid there is so much to be afraid of
I kill the fire so I don't get burned
Kill the fire and you won't get burned

Deadwood, if you care to listen
It's the same but there's something missing
It wears me out
Stripped bare I'm the same old savage
How in His name did we ever manage?
It's not enough

Look me in the eye
I'm about to dive
Can you live your life without me?

I don't need you anymore
I can't use you anymore
Killing the fire and you kill my desire
I don't need you anymore

Loud and clear but you still don't get it
I call you up and then I'll regret it
It gets me down
You want the truth but you look right through it
Deadwood but you hold on to it
It's such a shame

Look me in the eye
I'm about to dive
Can you live your life without me?

I don't need you anymore
I can't use you anymore
Killing the fire and you kill my desire
I don't need you anymore

First comes love
Then comes marriage
Then comes baby in a golden carriage
First comes love
Then comes marriage
Then comes baby in a golden carriage

I don't need you anymore
I can't use you anymore
Killing the fire and you kill my desire
Killing the fire and you kill my desire
Killing the fire and you kill my desire
Killing the fire and you kill my desire...

Symptomatic of what we've become
I used to think you were the only one

First comes love
Then comes marriage
Then comes loneliness.

Can't Seem To Make You Mine
Can't you see what you do to me
You fill my life with misery
With every breath every step I take
I'm more in love with you

I can't go on like this
A little bit of love, not a kiss
I gotta have your love everyday
One that'll never fade

Can't you see what you're doin' to me
You fill my heart with misery
With every breath, every step I take
I'm more in love with you

I can't seem to make you mine [x2]

Kissing all around all the time
I can't seem to make you mine
Flying around like a bee
Hurting everything you see

I can't seem to make you mine [4x]

Butterfly Collector
So you finally got what you wanted
You've achieved your aim by making me walk in line

When you just can't get any higher
You've used your senses to suss out this week's climber

And the small fame that you've acquired
Has brought you into cult status but to me you're still a collector

There's tarts and whores but you're much more
You're a different kind 'cause you want their minds
And you just don't care 'cause you've got no pride
It's just a face on your pillowcase
That thrills you

And you started looking much older
And your fashion sense is second rate like your perfume

But to you in your little dream world
You're still the queen of the butterfly collectors

As you carry on 'cause it's all you know
You can't light a fire, you can't cook or sew
You go from day to day by filling your head
But you surely must know the appeal between your legs
Has worn off

And I don't care about morals
'Cause the word's insane and we're all to blame anyway

And I don't feel any sorrow
Towards the Queens and Kings of the butterfly collectors

There's tarts and whores but you're much more
You're a different kind 'cause you want their minds
And you just don't care 'cause you've got no pride
He's just a face on your pillowcase
That thrills you

You carry on 'cause it's all you know
You can't light a fire, you can't cook or sew
You go from day to day filling your head
But you surely must know the appeal between your legs
Has worn off

And I don't feel any sorrow
Towards the Kings and Queens of the butterfly collectors.

Alien Sex Fiend
You're an alien sex fiend
You're an alien sex fiend
You're an alien sex fiend
You're an alien sex fiend

You're an alien sex fiend
You're an alien sex fiend
You're an alien sex fiend
You're an alien sex fiend

You're an alien sex fiend
You're an alien sex fiend
You're an alien sex fiend
You're an alien sex fiend

And you go la la lala la la la la lala la la...

Afterglow
Centre on the wide horizon
Focus on the galaxy
Sweep away your expectations
and recognise your enemies

I hear you talking to yourself
You're stripping off for someone else
You've got to learn to love yourself
It's all that counts, there's little else

You're always looking for affections
and all its possibilities
Your senses searching for attention
in urgent need of gravity

I think you think you're someone else
You've got to learn to save yourself
Before you find there's nothing left
But bitterness
And hollowness
And afterglow
And afterglow.

13X Forever
Thirteen times you fucked with my karma
And thirteen times I sucked on your dogma
You taught me to hate
You taught me to crawl

You raised your hand as you raised the bottle
You knock me down but it made me stronger
The harder you hit
The harder you fall

And this one's for my mother
What will I do without her
Don't look back
Don't even bother

And this one's for the father
Who loves his little daughter Well here I am
Don't even bother

You can freak out about me
But you'd lose your mind without me
You thought you could see right through me
But it made no difference to me
Anyway [x2]

A free reign gave you ammunition
To play the game and
Fuck other women
And something just snapped
And cracked in my brain

Thirteen times I sucked up inside me
The different ways that you tried to harm me
You did it once
You'll do it again

And this one's for my sister
You dare to denigrate her
Don't look back
Don't even bother

And this one's for my lover
The one who had to suffer
Here I am
Don't even bother

You can freak out about me
But you'd lose your mind without me
You thought you could see right through me
But it made no difference to me
Anyway [x4]

Thirteen times (one)
Thirteen times (two)
Thirteen times (three)
Thirteen times (four)
Thirteen times (five)
Thirteen times (six
Thirteen times (seven)
Thirteen times (eight)

#1 Crush
I would die for you
I would die for you
I've been dying just to feel you by my side
To know that you're mine

I will cry for you
I will cry for you
I will wash away your pain with all my tears
And drown your fear

I will pray for you
I will pray for you
I will sell my soul for something pure and true
Someone like you

See your face every place that I walk in
Hear your voice every time I am talking
You will believe in me
And I will never be ignored

I will burn for you
Feel pain for you
I will twist the knife and bleed my aching heart
I'll tear it apart

I will lie for you
I can steal for you
I will crawl on hands and knees until you see
You're just like me

Violate all my love that I'm missing
Throw away all the pain that I'm living
You will believe in me
And I can never be ignored

I would die for you
I would kill for you
I will steal for you
I'd do time for you
I would wait for you
I'd make room for you
I'd sail ships for you
To be close to you
To be a part of you
'Cause I believe in you
I believe in you
I would die for you.

Lick The Pavement
1 2 3 4
You got my number you know what I need
And I go crazy when ever I bleed
Won't you come over I swear I'll be nice
My girlfriend told me that you got a wife


I learn to bribe I learn to say please
Oh wont you lick the pavement for me
I learn to bribe I learn to say please
I like you best when your on your knees

I know your lonely cause your just like me
Why don't you call me you'll know where I'll be



Do do do do do do do do do do do [x2]



Do do do do do do do when your on your knees do do do do [x6]
Oh won't you lick the pavement for me [till fade].

Sleep
In the middle of the night
Head on my pillow
Looking like a little ghost

Seems like all of the things
That you gave your mother
Have all gone up in smoke

In the middle of the night
You don't know what I'm thinking
But still the stars still sparkle and shine

Seems like all of the time
Our boat was slowly sinking
You didn't even seem to mind

Now all I want to do is sleep
Now all I want to do is sleep
Now all I want to do is sleep.

Soldier Through This
You work to hard
So when you come home
You tell me you are tired
And you don't want to talk about it
You envy my drive
And how I am motivated

You go down to the park
Check out the carnival for a while
And try to forget all about it
I'm out of control
And you don't appreciate it


Believe it, I need it
I feel intoxicated
I love it, I want it
Don't make me leave you for it

You say I have changed
Self-centred and vain
And you don't respect me for it
The world is the same
So I play the game
And you've grown to hate me for it

So waery and raged
There's no-one to blame
But still you resent me for it
I call all the shots
I hold all the cards
And you feel imasculinated




Believe it, I need this
I feel intoxicated
I love it, I want it
Don't make me leave you for it


How do we reconcile this [4x]
I'm able to soldier through this [4x]

Subhuman
Burn down all your idols
Destroy your idols
Create a scene
There goes all your reason
It's helter skelter
It's not a dream

Come down from the altar
Remove your blindfold
What do you see
Nothing left to do here
There's nothing new here
It's all the same

You're going down, down, down
How low can you go?
You're going down, down, down
How low can you go?
You're going down, down, down
How low can you go?

Hare Hare Krishna
Was that your sister
Or a cover girl
A wasted prima donna
She lost her way here
She disappeared

Come back to your altar
And build a fire
It's getting cold
Nothing stops you in here
There's not a stone here
You're all alone

You're going down, down, down
How low can you go?
You're going down, down, down
How low can you go?
You're going down, down, down
How low can you go?

Kill the new religion
No inhibition
No alibi
Televised confession
A true obsession
It's all new lies

Miscommunication
Misinformation
A perfect waste
Bite the sacred apple
And suck the poison
Enjoy the taste

You're going down, down, down
How low can you go?
You're going down, down, down
How low can you go?
You're going down, down, down
You're going down, down, down
You're going down, down, down
How low can you go?

How low can you go?
How low can you go?
How low can you go?
How low can you go?
How low can you go?

Girl Don't Come
Girl don't come
If it's all been said and done
Don't hang around
Let them kick back off the ground
Let them kick back off the ground

Girl don't come
He's got nothing left to lose
But that's all right
That could well change overnight
He'll want to take that pretty head
Lay down in someone else's bed

Girl don't come
Girl don't come
Girl don't come
Girl don't come

If you want my sympathy my dear
You better not come near my dear
I think it's fair to say my dear
You better see my way
You better see my way

Girl don't come
Girl don't come
Girl don't come
Girl don't come
Girl don't come
Girl don't come (If you want my sympathy my dear)
Girl don't come (You better not come near my dear)
Girl don't come (I think it's fair to say my dear)
Girl don't come (You better see my way my dear)
Girl don't come (If you want my sympathy my dear)
Girl don't come (You better not come near my dear)
Girl don't come (I think it's fair to say my dear)
Girl don't come (You better see my way my dear).

Thirteen
Won't you let me walk you home from school
Won't you let me meet you at the pool
Maybe Friday I can
Get tickets for the dance
And I'll take you

Won't you tell your dad, Get off my back
Tell him what we said about Paint It, Black
Rock 'n Roll is here to stay
Come inside where it's okay
And I'll shake you.

Won't you tell me what you're thinking of.
Would you be an outlaw for my love
If it's so, well, let me know
If it's no, well, I can go.
I won't make you.

Tornado
Come on Shirl... [x7]
Come on...

Come on Shirl...
Come on...

Come on Shirl... [x2]
You got a thing that thing gets me on fire [x4]

Come on Shirl... [x6]
You got a thing that thing gets me on fire

Come on...
Come on Shirl...
(You got a thing that thing gets me on fire) [x3]

Trip My Wire
Be easy on me
I'm fragile
I'm easily broken

Be careful with me
I'm a fighter
And you're cheating
You're a liar

I don't need this anymore
This is not what I came for
I won't stand for this at all
I won't see you anymore

Be easy on me
Don't trip my wire
I'm freaking
I'm on fire

Be easy on me
Trip my wire
I'm freaking
I'm on fire

I don't need this any more
This is not what I came for
I won't stand for this at all
I won't see you any more

Be careful with me
I'm fragile
I'm a bitch, babe
And I'm on fire

Be careful with me
I'm fragile
I'm a bitch, babe
And I'm on fire

Be careful with me
Be careful with me
Be careful with me
I'm...

I'll stab you 'til tripping my wire
I'm free, free, free but baby I'm on fire
I don't need this any more
This is what I came here for.
