psychedelic furs - alice 039 s house

in the house where alice lives
alice's
it's a mess of souvenirs
there to remind
telling the time
in the garden where you go
flowers die
people say it's cold out there
you disagree
she's telling me
come and spend the day at alice's house
have some time away at alice's house
write a note saying please don't go
please don't go
in the softest room you sing
without a key
the butler is serving tea
wearing a shirt without any sleeves
come and spend the day at alice's house
have some time away at alice's house
write a note saying please don't go
please don't go
in the bedroom down the hall
your secrets sleep
it is always late at night
won't you stay?
why don't you stay?
in the house where alice lives
alice's
it's a mess of souvenirs
there to remind you
telling the time
come and spend the day at alice's house
have some time away at alice's house
write a note saying please don't go
please don't go
alice's house

psychedelic furs - all of this and nothing

a phonebook full of accidents
a girl to drive your car
a suit to wear on mondays
and a coat a magazine
a heavy rain a holiday
a painting of the wall
a knife a fork and memories
a light to see it all
you didn't leave me anything
that i can understand
hey i never meant that stuff
i want to turn you round
dominoes a pack of cards
a picture of the queen
a dress to wear on sundays
and a handle for the door
a letter that i sent for you
a note you left for me
a wave a pack of cigarettes
a pocket full of beads
you didn't leave me anything
that i can understand
hey i never meant that stuff
i want to turn you on
you didn't leave me anything
that i can understand
hey i never meant that stuff
i want to turn you round
you didn't leave me anything
that i can understand
hey i never meant that stuff
i want to turn you on
the sound of people getting drunk
a ceiling and a sky
a bank that's full of promises
a telephone that lies
a visit from your doctor
he crawls in through the door
a mirror you can look in
so that you know where you are
you didn't leave me anything
that i can understand
hey i never meant that stuff
i want to turn you round
you didn't leave me anything
that i can understand
now i'm left with all of this
a room full of your trash

see the people dead in cars
see the bodies bleed
i know he's so dead and gone
i think that is free

his body is upon the wall
his teeth are sharp and white
we cut his eyes with razorblades
and out of him comes foul white light

in the eastern carpet store
he is made of dreams
put his picture on the wall
just where the mirror gleams

his body is upon the wall
his teeth are sharp and white
we cut his face with razorblades
and out of him comes foul white light

there's flowers all around his feet
there's flowers in his heart
if you take the needles out
his body falls apart

his body is upon the wall
his teeth are sharp and white
we cut his hands with razorblades
and out of him comes foul white light

make a god of politics
make a god of police
worship it with automobiles
worship it with screams

his body is upon the wall
his teeth are sharp and white
we cut his feet with razorblades
and out of him comes foul white light

make a god of useless drivel
sew it at the seams
float it down the river
where the sewage is the sea

his body is upon the wall
his teeth are sharp and white
we cut his teeth on razorblades
and out of him came stupid light
that's flowers

psychedelic furs - heartbeat

She's a heartbeat
Yeah, she's a heartbeat
She's a door at the end of a dead end street
She's a heartbeat
And footsteps i hear her footsteps
Here comes rumours and lies
Here comes my life of crime
I hear footsteps
When the music goes down
And the traffic is stopped
And nobody talks at all
When they turn up the town
I hear a heartbeat
And i've shut all the shades
And the radio stops
And nobody moves at all
When the city's asleep
I hear a heartbeat
I hear a heartbeat
In the shadows
Out in the shadows
It's like walking on glass
It's the end of the show
In the shadows
And sweet dreams
She sells you sweet dreams
It's like movies and trash
Where there's always a girl
And she's sweet dreams
When the music goes down
And the traffic is stopped
And nobody talks at all
When they turn up the town
I hear a heartbeat
And i've shut all the shades
And the radio stops
And nobody moves at all
When the city's asleep
I hear a heartbeat
I hear a heartbeat
Heartbeat

psychedelic furs - love my way

There?s on army on the dance floor
It?s a fashion with a gun my love
In a room without a door a
Kiss is not enough in

CHORUS
Love my way it?s a new road
I follow where my mind goes

They?d put us on a railroad
They?d dearly make us pay
For laughing in their faces and
Making it our way there?s
Emptiness behind their eyes
There?s dust want to steal us all and
Take us all apart
But not in

CHORUS X3

So swallow all your tears my love
And put on your new face
You can never win or lose if
You don?t run the race

psychedelic furs - midnight to midnight

when this town gets lonely
i got the new york stars
it feels like turning for you
like diamonds in the dark
i got fascination
when you call my name
i might make history
or throw it all away
it hurts like the first time
it hurts just like crime
when we're hot with confusion
from midnight to midnight
it hurts like confusion
and words don't come close
when your sweet dreams get lonely
i'll burn a candle then
i'm a town full of strangers
of big time and lies
i'm all sirens and love songs
shot down in black and white
i got fascination
when you call my name
i might make history
or or throw it all away
it hurts like confusion
and words don't come close
when your sweet dreams get lonely
i'll burn a candle then
it hurts like the first time
it hurts just like crime
when we're hot with confusion
from midnight to midnight
love is no law
love is no crime
it feels of turning sensation
and fun times
love is no law
love is no crime
it feels of turning sensation
and fun times
when this town gets lonely
i got the new york stars
it feels like turning for you
like diamonds in the dark
i got fascination
when you call my name
i might make history
or or throw it all away
it hurts like the first time
it hurts just like crime
when we're hot with confusion
from midnight to midnight
it hurts like confusion
and words don't come close
when your sweet dreams get lonely
i'll burn a candle then
it hurts like confusion
it hurts like confusion

psychedelic furs - mother son

mary comes in a bows
and all her lipstick pearls and clothes
come falling down
come falling at her feet
got a knife and a spoon
and a rose on my suit
mother-son

here above
i keep two feet on my floor
she's like a dove
there's a law she keeps
come falling down
steal her things
come falling down
all her rings
come falling down
all that she was sold
second hand handed you
with a heart to fill my shoes
and mother-son
dark as crows
she comes knocking down
sad mother-son
on a cross
in her sleep
on her sheets
with a lie
that she keeps
in here, nothing breathes
a penny sent
for your thought
she comes knocking down my door
sad mother-son
mother-son
