Dig!

She crawled out the hole in her Daddy’s arm
With a lack of life and her Mother’s charm
Gotta get out of this dead beat town
Gonna dig dig dig till she can’t be found
She said she’s in heaven that lonesome slum
With her back to the boards and a weight on her lungs
My broken body can’t make the climb so I’ll dig dig dig to the other side
Down Down Down Down
Down Down Down Down and Out
If this is heaven I’m climbing down
To the big black hole left in the ground
Gunna run like hell from the morning sun
Gunna dig dig dig till the light is gone
Digging up the dead with a shovel and a peg
Digging up the dead with a shovel and a peg
Digging up the dead with a shovel and a peg
Down Down Down Down
Down Down Down Down
Down Down Down Down
Down Down Down Down
and Out

Utopia

The air in utopias poisoned
the white city’s old and grey
and the house feels a little emptier
now that her children have gone away
To where the fat cats prowl the dancing halls
and their awkward hips doth sway
and their dirty fingers caress her slowly searching for the vein
The fever of last year
weighs heavy on your lungs
as you lose grip of the notion that
one day your saviour will come
but these broken hands will hold you
keep your head above the wave
as you slip back to the comfort of
that all too familiar place
of tea cups and cheap cocaine
Soviet vodka and lemonade
whips that crack like thunder and
after comes the rain

Hot House

Baby have you had enough?
is that all you needed to see?
a kiss like a loaded gun
bringing me down to my knees
your love is like the cold cold sweat
of a perverted Freudian dream
baby won’t you take it back
I want to miss you when you leave
(I knew you were trouble)
Oh hothouse baby
lay me down
crying like a dog in the heat
why won’t you show me
the face of god
and drink the fear from my cheeks
and then caress me
with the gentle touch
of a new age socialist dream
and when you’ve got it all
you can throw me back to the streets
I could have lied to myself
but baby I was feeling mean
so please won’t you take it all
I only miss these things when they leave

No Exit

My good intentions conspire
to make this fortress a home
but there’s no exit in sight
and if there was well I’d have nowhere to go
Is this your perfect design?
I pray that you broke the mould
of all the shapes that I’ve been bent into
why would you ever think that this one would hold?
I’m amazed you haven’t crawled off by now
Maybe you know something I don’t
Why haven’t you crawled off by now?
I think you’re just taking me for a ride
It seems so cold outside
and I’m content in my hole
my furniture's come alive
and now I’m never alone
I hear them talking in their sleep
and they’re not very nice
I think they want to crucify me
but if all your sins are forgiven
won’t you please please let me keep mine
(I could be your mirror but the lights must never go out)
oh why do you keep me?
(Lest we should see where we really are now)
After all these years
(I could be your mirror but the lights must never go out)
Why do you keep me?
(Lest we should see where we really are now)
I’m amazed you haven’t crawled off by now
(I could be your mirror but the lights must never go out)
After all these years
(Lest we should see where we really are now)
I’m amazed how you amaze me
