Fangs Out 04:03
FANGS OUT Hey You You keep on saying that your bottle is too empty And that your plate is way to full, to full with plenty of crap. Hey You You keep complaining that you’re tired of being a stand it Maybe it’s best if you don’t wait for things to land in your lap. Hey You You keep on saying that your life is not worth living And that you work so hard but nobody is giving a fuck hey you you keep on dreaming and believing hoping wishing maybe it’s time you rolled your sleeves up and start pushing your luck Get down on all fours, get your fangs out Get down on all fours, get your fangs out Get down on all fours, get your fangs out Get down Hey You you know you gotta shakes things up but you don’t know how so you’re just sitting back and watch it all implode now and cry Hey You you keep complaining that you’re tired of all the loose ends and that you wish you were in someone else’s shoes and fly high I wanna get dirty Make a big fat mess Wanna dance til 6:30 In my red silk dress I wanna kick off my shoes now And make love real loud My dirty mouth is let loose now Not gonna wash it out I’m starting to get thirsty I’m burning fire wood I’m gonna play it dirty Coz dirty feels good Get down on all fours And get your fangs out Take this shit storm on, until it’s passed Get down on all fours And chase the storm cloud Wake up, wake up, wake up This won’t last

Lost Souls 03:24
What kind of living is this When I merely exist When I cease to resist What kind of living is this When my thoughts are dismissed And I cease to persist For all the lost souls So it seems Salvation comes Only in dreams For all the lost souls So it seems Salvation comes Only in dreams The status quo we abide Put our heads down and hide Drifting with the tide The status quo we abide Blissfully mystified Taken for a ride Wildest dreams are being washed ashore We don’t dare to dream them anymore New acquired taste for salty tears Shaped by voices ringing in our ears For all the lost souls So it seems Salvation comes Only in dreams For all the lost souls So it seems Salvation comes Only in dreams

Dive 03:30
DIVE You took my soul You make me suffer Swallow up whole All that i offer You say my blood Makes you feel younger I’ll be right here To still your hunger Pain Is what makes the two of us stay sane So take my hand and walk me through the pouring rain You took my heart Here by the shore You hit it hart I beg for more You suck me dry Oh you consume me It gets us high You live right through me Pain Is what makes the two of us stay sane So take my hand and walk me through the pouring rain There’s no hidden treasure Unless you dive in farther You want my love So submerge and love me harder.

The Affair 03:25
THE AFFAIR So you’re dimming down the lights I should be leaving now I guess But then, when you touch me right It’s such a beautiful mess Should be calling it a night It’s better if we don’t but then you kiss me where my husband won’t Let go It’s alright let go It’s alright I should be somewhere else at home where I’m meant to be and you should be somewhere else but we lie here secretly Nothing to discuss we don’t need to talk we can read between the lines and do what we want tomorrow we’ll be back in familiar arms I should be somewhere else at home where i’m meant to be and you should be somewhere else but we lie here secretly Just needed a minute Some time alone Just needed a minute Some time alone Let go It’s alright Let go It’s alright But I should be somewhere else at home where i’m meant to be and you should be somewhere else but you lie here next to me Just needed a minute Some time alone Just needed a minute Some time alone

Shame 02:58
SHAME You’ve been gone. Gone astray. You found a girl. You went to play. I was here first. Now I’m alone. She quenched your thirst. Now come on home. Shame shame it drives you insane every time you call her name Shame shame it drives you insane every time you call her name Shame shame it drives you insane every time you call her name Shame shame it drives you insane every time Come on back, back to me. Come on home. You belong to me. Come on back. Back to me. Come on home. I’ll set you free. Shame shame it drives you insane every time you call her name Shame shame it drives you insane every time I found the girl. In her sleep. I dragged her far, far by her feet. I struck her head. I heard her squeal. I left her dead. to help you heal. Roam roam you had to roam, had to roam but now you’re coming home Roam roam you had to roam, had to roam but now you’re coming home Roam roam you had to roam, had to roam but now you’re coming home Roam roam you had to roam, had to roam but now you’re coming

THE CAT THAT GOT THE CREAM What fun this little power game As they’re trying to stay sane Uniform and without name Homogenised, faceless, tame Mechanical, profits growing Keep it up without them knowing I’ll make sure we keep this flowing The machine will keep them going I’m the Cat that got the cream, Watch me lap it up From your sippy cup And I watch their tired faces As i put them through their paces As i put them in their places As i shape their daily races And I check in every hour To remind them who’s in power To remind them who’s in power Barricaded in a concrete tower I’m the cat that got the cream, Watch me lap it up From your sippy cup Work. Work it. Flick the switch Work. Work it. Scratch my itch My weapon is fear Lick your face, suck your tear My weapon is fear Lick your face, suck your tear

Stay 03:04
STAY Stay Here where it’s warm Stay Here in my arm Dark is the night Keep it all outside. Stay And let it go Stay And let it flow Away Into the night Keep It all outside When I was was with you I didn’t know how to say it When I was was with you I didn’t know how to sway it When I was was with you I didn’t know how to play it When I was with you When I was Drown with me

You're Cool 03:13
YOU’RE COOL You’re awake And your hands wipe off last night’s traces You’re real How refreshing amongst celluloid faces You’re hot you’re raw You have guts you are no gopher and gosh, You look good on my sofa Maybe it’s a giant illusion but gosh, you play it well All I want is that you will keep me here under your spell You’re so cool, you’re my kind You’re so cool You’re so cool, you’re my kind You’re so cool You’re divine With the mind of an evil genius It hurts so bad the electricity between us You’re hot you’re raw and you are wickedly off-beat and gosh, you look good on my bedsheet Maybe it’s a giant illusion but gosh, you play it well All I want is that you will keep me here under your spell You’re so cool, You’re my kind You’re so cool You’re so cool, You’re my kind You’re so cool Our romance takes a dive at dinner with your mother All the issues and the tissues about one thing or another In the corner of of my eye I see the key to our hotel room and I’m thinking about that bottle of Red that we will consume I’m smiling politely. The conversation’s going on, still Hope she doesn’t want dessert, coz I prefer you horizontal Im drifting off and trying to think of something I could do just a little seedy trick to get closer to you Maybe it’s a giant illusion but gosh, you play it well All I want is that you will keep me here under your spell

Salt 02:37
SALT You rub salt into my wound it’s hurting me My nails dig into my knee when you say you’re leaving me You say that you’re to blame I say who cares, it’s all the same Maybe the moon is to blame it is all the same, it’s such a shame Can we end the hurt it’s been pretty rough Losing your love Has been hard enough We’re funning the flames and they are raging now it’s all turned to dust our beautiful wedding wow I’m spending my day watching it all implode all that we had perforate and erode Can we end the hurt it’s been pretty rough Losing your love Has been hard enough You rub salt into my wound As you’re leaving me add insult to injury when you say that you still love me
