There's no earthly way of knowing
What was in your heart
When it stopped going
The whole world shook
A storm was blowing through you
Waiting for God to stop this
And up to your neck in darkness
Everyone around you was corrupted
Saying somethin'
There's no dignity in death
To sell the world your last breath
They're still fighting over
Everything you left over
I saw you standing at the gates
When Marlon Brando passed away
You had that look upon your face
Advertising space
And
No one learned from your mistakes
We let our profit s go to waste
All that's left in any case
Is Advertising space
Through your eyes
The world was burning
Please be gentle
I'm still learning
You seemed to say
As you kept turning up
They poisoned you with compromise
At what point did you realise
Everybody loves your lies
But you ahahh
Special agent for the man
Through watergate and vietnam
No one really gave a damn
Did you think the CIA did
I saw you standing at the gates
When Marlon Brando passed away
You had that look upon your face
Advertising space
And
No one learned from your mistake
We let our profits go to waste
All that's left in any case
Is Advertising space ooooohh
I saw you standing at the gates
When Marlon Brando passed away
You had that look upon your face
Advertising space
No one learned from your mistakes
We let our profits go to waste
All that's left in any case
Is Advertising space
I've seen your daughter
Man shes cute
I was scared but I wanted to
Boy she looks a lot like you
Angels
I sit and wait
Does an angel contemplate my fate
And do they know
The places where we go
When we're grey and old
'cos I have been told
That salvation lets their wings unfold
So when I'm lying in my bed
Thoughts running through my head
And I feel the love is dead
I'm loving angels instead
And through it all she offers me protection
A lot of love and affection
Whether I'm right or wrong
And down the waterfall
Wherever it may take me
I know that life won't break me
When I come to call she won't forsake me
I'm loving angels instead
When I'm feeling weak
And my pain walks down a one way street
I look above
And I know I'll always be blessed with love
And as the feeling grows
She breathes flesh to my bones
And when love is dead
I'm loving angels instead
And through it all she offers me protection
A lot of love and affection
Whether I'm right or wrong
And down the waterfall
Wherever it may take me
I know that life won't break me
When I come to call she won't forsake me
I'm loving angels instead
And through it all she offers me protection
A lot of love and affection
Whether I'm right or wrong
And down the waterfall
Wherever it may take me
I know that life won't break me
When I come to call she won't forsake me
I'm loving angels instead
Come undone
So unimpressed but so in awe
Such a saint but such a whore
So self aware so full of shit
So indecisive so adamant
I'm contemplating I'm thinking about thinking
It's overrated just get another drink and
Watch me come undone
(come undone)
They're selling razor blades and mirrors in the street
(come undone)
I pray that when I'm coming down you'll be asleep
(come undone)
If I ever hurt you your revenge will be so sweet
Because I'm scum, and I'm your son,
I come undone
I come undone
So rock and roll, so corporate suit
So damn ugly, so damn cute
So well-trained, so animal
So need your love, so fuck you all
I'm not scared of dying
I just don't want to
If I'd stop lying I'd just disappoint you
I come undone
(come undone)
They're selling razor blades and mirrors in the street
(come undone)
I pray that when I'm coming down you'll be asleep
(come undone)
If I ever hurt you your revenge will be so sweet
Because I'm scum, and I'm your son,
I come undone
So write another ballad
Mix it on a Wednesday
Sell it on a Thursday
Buy a yacht by Sunday
It's a love song
A love song
Do another interview
Sing a bunch of lies
Tell about celebrities that I despise
And sing love songs
We sing love songs
So sincere
So sincere
(come undone)
They're selling razor blades and mirrors in the street
(come undone)
I pray that when I'm coming down you'll be asleep
(come undone)
A young pretender and my crowds above can see
I come undone
I am scum
Love your son
You gotta love your son
You gotta love your son
Yeah, yeah, yeah
Love your son
I am scum
I am scum
I am scum
Feel
Come and hold my hand
I wanna contact the living
Not sure I understand
This role I've been given
I sit and talk to God
And he just laughs at my plans
My head speaks a language
I don't understand
I just want to feel real love
Feel the home that I live in
'Cause I got too much life
Running through my veins
Going to waste
I don't want to die
But I ain't keen on living either
Before I fall in love
I'm preparing to leave her
I scare myself to death
That's why I keep on running
Before I've arrived
I can see myself coming
I just want to feel real love
Feel the home that I live in
'Cause I got too much life
Running through my veins
Going to waste
And I need to feel real love
And a life ever after
I cannot give it up
I just want to feel real love
Feel the home that I live in
I got too much love
Running through my veins
To go to waste
I just wanna feel real love
In a life ever after
There's a hole in my soul
You can see it in my face
It's a real big place
Come and hold my hand
I want to contact the living
Not sure I understand
This role I've been given
Not sure I understand
Not sure I understand
Not sure I understand
Not sure I understand

So come on let me entertain me
Let me entertain you
Come on come on come on come on
Millenium
We've got stars directing our fate
And we're praying it's not too late
Millennium
Some say that we are players
Some say that we are pawns
But we've been making money
Since the day that we were born
Got to slow down
'Coz we're low down
Run around in circles
Live a life of solitude
'Till we find ourselves a partner
Someone to relate to
Then we'll slow down
Before we fall down
We've got stars directing our fate
And we're praying it's not too late
'Coz we know we're falling from grace
Millennium
Live for liposuction
Detox for your rent
Overdose of christmas
Give it up for lent
My friends are all so cynical
Refuse to keep the faith
We all enjoy the madness
'Coz we know we're going to fade away
We've got stars directing our fate
And we're praying it's not too late
'Coz we know we're falling from grace
Millennium
Come and have a go if you think you are hard enough
Come and have a go if you think you are hard enough
Millennium
Millennium
We've got stars directing our fate
And we're praying it's not too late
'Coz we know we're falling from grace
Millennium
And when we come we always come too late
I have to think that we were born to hate
Get up and see the sarcasm in my eyes
And when we come we always come too late
I have to think that we were born to hate
Get up and see the sarcasm in my eyes
We've got stars directing our fate
Millennium
And we're praying it's not too late
Millennium
Coz we know we're falling from grace
Millennium
And we won't stop
We've got stars directing our fate
And we're praying it's not too late
Coz we know we're falling from grace
Misunderstood
Trying to be misunderstood
But it doesn't do me any good
Love the way they smiled at me
Held their face for eternity
Now let them all fly off
When it comes down
It all comes down
And you will not be found
When it's over
It's all over
Even if I make a sound
I'll be misunderstood
By the beautiful and good
In this city
None of it was planned
Take me by the hand
Just don't try and understand
Trying to be misunderstood
Just a product of my childhood
And still I find myself outside
You can't say I haven't tried
Perhaps I tried too hard
No excuses
I won't apologise
Or justify your lies
Come and find me
Tell them to me
Look me in the eyes
I'll be misunderstood
By the beautiful and good
In this city
None of this was planned
Take me by the hand
Just don't try and understand
Can't forgive, sorry to say
You don't know you're guilty anyway
Isn't it funny how we don't speak
The language of love
Radio
He's chosen my attic
I feel it in the static
He lives in my basement
And I can hardly face it
My performance is easy
I am the god of romance
And in my confusion
I have the right to reign
He's stolen my Oscars
He trades on my jokes
He makes all my engines go oh oh oh
He put an "e" in the arsenal
A comb in my 'fro
Devine retribution
And away we will go
Hey hey hey hey
Something's happening I can feel it
Moving out of time you'll hear it
Falling in the way you fear it
Jumping thumping shout out something
Jumping thumping shout out something
Listen to the radio
And you will hear the songs you know
Make it effervescent here
And you might have a job my dear
I'm searching for something
Beyond my understanding
Looking for meaning
Where nothing is demanding
There are no surprises
Where nothing is expected
If you offer nothing
Then everyone accepts
He's stolen my Oscars
He trades on my jokes
He makes all my engines go oh oh oh
He put an "e" in the arsenal
A comb in my 'fro
Devine retribution
And away we will go
Hey hey hey hey
Something's happening I can feel it
Moving out of time you'll hear it
Falling in the way you fear it
Jumping thumping shout out something
Jumping thumping shout out something
Listen to the radio
And you will hear the songs you know
Make it effervescent here
And you might have a job my dear
Ouch

Rudebox
Do the rudebox, Shake your rudebox
Do the rudebox, Shake your rudebox
Ok then back to basics,
Grab your shell toes and your phat laces,
A little hand clap for some funk faces,
And make your body move in the following places
Goes up your back and then down your spine and when it hits your head
Ok then back to basics
Dance like you just won at the **** Olympics
You've got the rudebox of the back of a spaceship,
So sick I just had to take it

If you rudebox me I'll rudebox your whole crew cos its what I do

Cos the sheriff's after me for what I did to his daughter.

Got this little fantasy where we just never stop,
I've got one desire and that's to funk you to the top.

Somethin' stupid
I know I stand in line,
until you think you have the time
to spend an evening with me
And if we go some place to dance
I know that there's a chance
you won't be leaving with me
And afterwards we drop into a quiet little place
and have a drink or two
And then I go and spoil it all
by saying something stupid
like :"I love you"
I can see it in your eyes
you still dispise the same old lies
you heard the night before
And though it's just a line to you
for me it's true
it never seemed so right before
I practice everyday
to find some clever lines to say
to make the meaning come true
But then I think I'll wait
until the evening gets late
and I'm alone with you
The time is right
your perfume fills my head
the stars get red
and oh, the night's so blue
And then I go and spoil it all
by saying something stupid
like: "I love you"
The time is right
Your perfume fills my head
The stars get red
and oh, the night's so blue
And then I go and spoil it all
by saying something stupid
like: "I love you"
"I love you"...
Supreme
Oh! Tout semble avoir été perdu
Pas un seul cœur solitaire
Tous ont déserté les rues
Et si les plus belles sont comme ils disent
Si les plus beaux sont comme ils disent
Que deviens-tu ?
Oh ! Tu prends la pause devant ta glace
Pour un nouvel inventaire avant d'y perdre la face
Tu veux crier au secours
Revoir la lueur du jour
Aimer encore
Aimer plus fort
Quand l'amour n'est plus là
Que te reste-t-il pour survivre ici-bas ?
Donne le meilleur de toi-même
Et tu trouveras l'amour suprême
L'amour suprême
Oh ! Sait-tu au moins ce que tu veux ?
Est-ce la peur d'être seul
Qui t'empêche de jouer franc jeu
Entre l'amour et le plaisir
Quel est vraiment ton désir ?
Tu dois choisir
Oh ! Oublie toutes ces choses de la vie
Qui reviennent torturer
Le grand vide de tes nuits
Prends un ticket pour ailleurs
Sans te priver du bonheur
D'aimer encore
D'aimer plus fort
Quand l'amour n'est plus là
Que te reste-t-il pour survivre ici-bas ?
Donne le meilleur de toi-même
Et tu trouveras l'amour suprême
L'amour suprême
I spy with my little eye
Something beginning with
Got my back up
And now she's screaming so I've got
To turn the track up
Sit back and watch the royalties stack up
I know this girl she likes sweat teams
And I'm a friend but I'm living for a love supreme
Quand l'amour n'est plus là
Que te reste-t-il pour survivre ici-bas ?
Donne le meilleur de toi-même
Et tu trouveras l'amour suprême
L'amour suprême
Donne le meilleur de toi-même
Viens vivre un amour suprême
Tout le monde a besoin d'amour
Donne le meilleur de toi-même
Viens vivre un amour suprême
Tout le monde a besoin d'amour
The road to Mandalay
Save me from drowning in the sea
Beat me up on the beach
What a lovely holiday
There's nothing funny left to say
This sombre song would drain the sun
But it won't shine until it's sung
No water running in the stream
The saddest place we've ever been
Everything I touched was golden
Everything I loved got broken
On the road to Mandalay
Every mistake I've ever made
Has been rehashed and then replayed
As I got lost along the way
There's nothing left for you to give
The truth is all that you're left with
Twenty paces then at dawn
We will die and be reborn
I like to sleep beneath the trees
Have the universe at one with me
Look down the barrel of a gun
And feel the Moon replace the Sun
Everything we've ever stolen
Has been lost returned or broken
No more dragons left to slay
Every mistake I've ever made
Has been rehashed and then replayed
As I got lost along the way
Save me from drowning in the sea
Beat me up on the beach
What a lovely holiday
There's nothing funny left to say
