Notorious

I can't read about it burns the skin from your eyes I'll do fine without it here's one you don't compromise Lies come hard to disguise Let me to fight it out--not wild about it Lay your seedy judgements who says they're part of our lives? you own the money you control the witness I hear you're lonely don't monkey with my business You pay the profits to justify the reasons I heard your promise but I don't believe it that's why I'll do it again no no notorious Girls will keep the secrets so long as boys make the noise Fools run rings to break up something they'll never destroy Grand notorious slam--BAM! and who really gives a damn for a flaky bandit? don't ask me to bleed about it I need this blood to survive (chorus) no no notorious

American Science 

It's a little bit late now, but there's times you will Get a little bit out of hand, making all of a spill. And if we can lay this down, you're going all the way. Take a look and I'll check it out, 'cause I can always find it. Such a alonely place, Ooh. This room with out your fac, Ooh. Chorus Ooh, American Science, All night long she can two-step and sway.

Oh, it's such awfuly manners, Don't keep me waiting, Come and lie beside me. A little meglomania becomes you, evidently. Ther ain't a thing you can acquire with your cling-wrap plaything. Just look at this state. I crawl around in a daze, like a symptomatic Case of your soul persuasion. SUch a lonely place, Ooh. This room without your face, Ooh. Chorus Ooh, it's a little bit later now. And there's times you will let it allget Out of hand when you feel you feel. I just switched on the operation. Such a lovely fac, Ooh. It pulls me into place, Ooh. Chorus

A MATTER OF FEELING

How does it feel when everyone surrounds you how do you feel do crowds just make you feel lonely what do you say people going to try to pin you down waiting to smile but there's no understanding how after awhile you keep falling off the same mountain try to explain it nothing really gets them that high. Steal away in the morning love's already history to you it's a habit you're forming this body's desperate for something new just a matter of feeling this moment's madness shot too fast and tears will dry as you're leaving who knows you might find something to last Emotions again saved up for a rainy Monday but you laugh just the same cuz it's been pouring on Sunday; dial up your numbers and never let the zeros bring you down how does it feel is time to heavy to hold whatever you desire for the moment is holy whenever you slow down to see life is passing by Steal away in the morning love's already history to you it's a habit you're forming this body's desperate for something new just a matter of feeling this moment's madness shot too fast and tears will dry as you're leaving who knows you might find something to last.

Hold Me

Shall we walk?shall we run?through my head you understand does the body you conceal need the touch of someone's hand? Ashes, violations--who would they burn for?In your isolation..why can't you see? wonder if the lights out I wonder if they're listening Hold me lay your shame away Show me where your lovers stay Hold me lay your ghosts away Show me for yourself You are lost and alone but a prisoner of your pride when the passions you ignore you can never hide One of these days you're Going to find out 'Cuz one of these days you're going to try And what did I say to make you wind up with this spear of guilt inside I wonder if the lights out I wonder if they're listening Hold me lay your shame away Show me where your lovers stay Hold me lay your ghosts away Show me for yourself

Vertigo (Do the Demolition)

Hey guys, turn it up to get sleazy--twist it in a vise Nobody said it was easy just use your naked eyes...How to see and how to hide it How to save it well...Maybe, maybe, maybe You could take it and eat it Chew your life supply Where's the real life In your illusion On the dark side Of power and confusion Do the dance, Do the demolition And lose the chance to hear when you don't listen Don't you feel edgy? Bite your lips and bleed Conversation is empty Abandoned in the freeze How to see and how to hide it How to save it well...Maybe, maybe, maybe you could take it or leave it...just need a little hit tonight Where's the real life In your illusion On the dark side Of power and confusion Do the dance, Do the demolition And lose the chance to hear when you don't listen Where's the real life In your illusion On the dark side Your power's in confusion Do the dance, Do the demolition Don't lose the chance to hear when you don't listen

Winter Marches On

The trade's on She drains emotion To drink from The breast of fortune Dreams have frozen Crystal in the morning Birthtime rose A thorn for coronation All arise from your rest We'll find enough there to feed you Soon you'll belong to the blessed Spare us your lives while we need you Loud is the music the crowd is ringing Out of my head as the winter marches on...Loud is the chorus your voice is bringing Out of my head as the winter marches on...Loud is the music the crowd is ringing Out of my head as the winter marches on...Loud is the chorus your voice is bringing Out of my head as the winter marches on...And on...Winter marches on...
