Pretty Things Philippe Debarge Lyrics
1.Hello, How Do You Do


2.You Might Even Say


3.Alexander

Eastern shores, they seemed so full of promise
Minarets they lacerate the skyline
Opposing seas will drift into the harbour
Girls, they die with screams of Alexander

You'll only kneel at the Fire God
You'll only kneel at the Fire God
You'll only kneel at the...

Balthazar consults his book of numbers
Buildings jangle with the children's laughter
Mothers, they gather eyes of distant features
A woman's face dissolves, I hear her screetches.

You'll only kneel at the Fire God
You'll only kneel at the Fire God

Poet dies, stabbed with the knife of words
Young girl marries with bouquet of letters
One life explodes and slides into the sea
The city lies buried beneath the curses

You'll only kneel at the Fire God
You'll only kneel at the Fire God
You'll only kneel at the Fire God

10.It'll Never Be Me

Sad eyes turn away from the looking glass
Fingers trace the lines of the years have passed
Smears of lies upon the lips of someone standing by
(yeah)

No It'll never be me looking at you that way
no it'll never be me looking at you that way

Mother keeps a photogragh of a child thats dead
the child of the fading name thats never said
white fantasies of the child's life is spinning round this
mother's head

No It'll never be me looking at you that way
no it'll never be me looking at you that way

Face pressed is against the window of an early train
arms twist out the message of unspoken plain
you wipe away a tear and then it starts to rain

No It'll never be me looking at you that way
no it'll never be me looking at you that way


11.I'm Checking Out


12.All Gone Now


13.Monsieur Rock (Ballad of Philippe)
