2.My Legendary Girlfriend
You know sometimes ... when we're lying together ... and I know
you're asleep ...
I can hear the soft sound of your breathing ... so I get up ...
and I go to the window ...
Outside ... I can see all the houses ...
Curtains shut tight against the night ... asleep beneath the
roof-tiles ...
And as I stand here ... I wonder ... I wonder how many more
times ... I'm gonna come here
...
I wonder how many more times ... I'm gonna lie here ...
And most of all ... most of all I wonder ...
I wonder what it means ... I just wanna know what it means ...
So I woke her ... and we went walking through the sleeping town
... down deserted streets
...
Frozen gardens grey in the moonlight ... fences ... down to the
canal ...
Creeping slowly past the cooling towers ...
Deserted factories ... looking for an adventure ...
I wandered the streets calling your name ...
Jumping walls ... hoping to see a light in the window ...
Let me in ... let me come in ... let me in tonight ...
Oh I see you shivering in the garden ... silver goose-flesh in
the moonlight ...
She's balancing ... there are so many others ... with unbroken
eyes ...
No cellulite afternoons ...
And she is balancing ... balancing on the edge of ugliness
tonight ...
She is balancing ... good God!
My legendary girlfriend, she is crying tonight
Oh no she doesn't feel right
She's got no-one to hold
Her love is a sham
He is dancing somewhere
Oh no he doen't care oh well, he'll never know
Jump ... touch my hair ...
I wanna ... I don't care ... 'cos tonight ...
We could, maybe we ... maybe we can touch the sky ...
Do you think that we can ...
Do you think that we can ... touch the sky ... please ...
I know ... I know it's not forever ... but tonight I don't care
...
Your skin so pale in the moonlight ... and the way your lips
swell up when you're asleep
...
Nothing else matters ... do you know how much I want you？ ...
Can you feel how much I want you？ ... Oh
Pitsmoor Woman
Oh let oh let me in tonight
My legendary girlfriend, she is crying tonight
Oh no she doesn't feel right
She's got no-one to hold
Her love is a sham
He is dancing somewhere
Oh no he doen't care oh well, he'll never know
And all the stars came out tonight and the moon came on it's
face
It shone right though the clothes she wore
It shone right through the dress she wore
Good God ... Oh, y'know ... listen ... listen ... please ... oh
...
I just wanna ... I just wanna... ...
He falls to sleep again ... no cheese tonight ... she knows
My legendary girlfriend, she is crying tonight
Oh no she doesn't feel right
She's got no-one to hold
Her love is a sham
He is dancing somewhere
Oh no he doen't care oh well, he'll never know
And all the stars came out tonight and the moon came on it's
face
It shone right through the dress she wore
It shone right through the clothes she wore
And the stars and the moon
And the stars all came down today
Oh please love me tonight
Good God now!
3.Death II
Oh uh-uh-uh Oh
Hey Oh now the lonely nights begin and there is nowhere left to
go
But watch my spirit melt away, down at the D-I-S-C-O
I must have died a thousand times
The next day, I was still alive
And I still believe in you
Yes I do
Let's do it now
No I was not crushed, I did not cry
You know that everything's O.K.
It's just sometimes I wake at night
All alone and see your face
Oh, thousands feel the same but the night-time falls away
Oh no but still sometimes I feel oh sometimes I feel like Jesus
Christ now
Hey I feel this night will never end and I will never see the
day
Oh I was nothing when you came
I'm no-one now you've gone away
Oh all I do is just O.K.
All of my nights, and all of my days
Oh-oh if you came home right now
I'd run away
Oh run away now
O.K. now
Alright You can go out and make love to whoever, or whatever you
like babe
So I go out and fill my eyes with other women
Oh they look good to me and I think that I might kiss them
Oh now it's two a.m. and I'm still stood here waiting
So I go home and wonder why I bother going
Yeah every week turns out the same the sun, the wind, the snow,
the rain
Oh no but still sometimes I feel
Oh sometimes I feel like Jesus Christ now
Hey I feel this night will never end and I will never see the
day
Oh I was nothing when you came
I'm no-one now you've gone away
Oh all I do is just O.K.
All of my nights, and all of my days
Oh-oh if you came home right now I'd run away
I can't believe it
I can't remember your face anymore or the sound of your voice
Or any touch of your skin is a legend
By the way, did I tell you that I loved you？
Oh if I didn't I'm so sorry
You know I I really, I really meant to tell you it's O.K.
there's no need to hurry
But the bed is full of memories, full of memories of you
Oh I've tried to get them out but but there's nothing I can do
Oh if I knew the moon I'd ask him
Shine his light in through your window and send your body home
to me today
Hey I feel this night will never end and I will never see the
day
Oh I was nothing when you came
I'm no-one now you've gone away
Oh all I do is O.K.
All of my nights, and all of my days
Oh-oh if you came home right now
I'd run away
Run away Run away.
4.This House Is Condemned
He's in a room
He sees the floor
He sees the wall
He sees the roof
He sees the door
It's nine thirty-eight
So he goes up to the door and he finds himself in another room
identical to the one before
The clock still reads nine thirty-eight
So he goes out of that room, but he finds himself in a parallel
room
A mirror image of the one before
He hits the floor
He hits the wall
He hits the door
He hits the door
The clock reads nine thirty-eight
He throws it at the roof
He breaks a hole
He climbs out
He sees the moon
He sees the stars
He sees the sky
The stars are small lightbulbs set in a black cardboard dome
He climbs out
He sees the stars, he sees the sky
The stars are small lightbulbs set in a black cardboard dome
He hits the floor
He hits the wall
He hits the roof
He hits the dome
He hits the dome
Condemned This house This house is
This house is
Is this house
This house
Is this house
Fill in housing form
Buy one clock
Time again
Sort housing papers
Still nine thirty-eight
Two thousand years from now it will still be ticking
He hits the floor
Wall, roof, door
The clock reads nine thirty-eight
He hits the dome
Door, wall
Space, floor
Time
He sees the moon
He sees the stars for some romantic reason
Space, dome, door, wall, clockface
Space, time, place, floor, wall, door, roof
This is one small step for mankind one giant leap for man
Ten Nine Eight Seven Six Five Four Three Two One Zero
We have lift-off
He takes the clock, he breaks the dome, he sees the moon, he
sees the stars
He sees the sky, he sees the Earth for some romantic reason
He takes the clock, he breaks the dome, he sees the moon, he
sees the stars
He sees the sky, he sees the Earth
Space, time, place, condensed
Space, time, place, condemned
This is house is
This house is
This house is condemned

This house is condemned.
5.Love Is Blind
Give me the city
Give me the sea
Give to me everything I need
The future is shining like a giant metal beast
It shines so bright tonight with its legs open wide and love is
blind
Falls in love with itself again like it never should the way it
always can and she is mine
But the world is much bigger now
Oh tell me should I hold her hand and give her love or take her
heart and throw it far
away？
Oh now is the time to jump into it all
I'll just hold my nose and try not to fall
To seek and to find instead of walking around with eyes glued to
the sky
I turn them down to the ground
Oh and I used to think that maybe one day I'd find the love of
my life
Oh but it's so far away
Oh I don't know why
Oh but I
I want it all tonight and love is blind
Falls in love with itself again like it never should the way it
always can
Oh and she is mine but the world is so much bigger now
Oh tell me should I hold her hand and give her love or take her
heart and throw it far
away？
We held hands and we looked out of the bedroom window
We could see all the buildings collapsing around us
So we kissed and we laid on the bed and we waited for the
ceiling to fall in
But it never did
In the morning it was all still there
The spilled milk and the dog-turds in that grey ashtray morning
light
I could hear thousands of people and they were all singing this
song： La lala lala...
Hey butcher!
Oh, oh, oh hey butcher!
What's your name？
Oh hey butcher, what's your game？
Ah, you take all their love and you suck out their eyes and then
you rip out their hearts
And you eat their insides
Yeah, then you just walk away with a smile on your face
Hey butcher, hey butcher
I've seen your face before
La ladadow da lalala...
And love is blind.
6.Separations
As the sun shines down on the land so her heart is crying for
love
And there is no-one there, no-one to hear her voice and she will
sleep alone again tonight
Now the moon is high in the sky
In her room she calls out his name
But he is somewhere else somewhere she cannot see
Oh and the night is dark between them now
'My god, my God, why did he go away？'
Now the sun shines on a new town
With a smile he gets off the train
He lights a cigarette leans back to see the sky
Oh and he thinks how much better off he is without her hanging
round
Let's do it
And the day is passing by him and he has nowhere to stay
At a lonely bar-room table his mind goes back to yesterday to
the girl who's dead and
buried
But her face lives in his eyes
He must forget that face forever
Make the future start tonight
Forget her
But the meal he eats is dead flesh
There is cancer in his cigarettes and the drinks won't do a
thing for him
But revive some stupid memories
Then a hairstyle that reminds him makes him run into the night
Where the moon hangs high above him now
The same moon that she's praying on tonight
But the wind catches her words and the moon swallows them whole
Now the moon is high in the sky
In her room she calls out his name
The night is cold and dark and she is all alone
The bed is empty now
Her body screams for love
She wants to be with him
Oh but he's so far away
Oh and the night is dark between them now
'My God, my God, why did he go away？'
7.Don't You Want Me Anymore？
On the night that I was leaving, the moon rose in the sky
As I came to fetch my suitcase and then you began to cry
I've never seen you look so ugly as the way you did that night
That night was eighteen months ago
Now I'm two hours from the station
Yeah I'm coming home again
I'm gonna show this town who's master soon as I get off this
train
You're gonna love me more than ever and the sun will shine again
and I will kiss your face
And I will make you smile again and then the whole damn town
will come on out to welcome
me
Oh they will open all the doors and give it all to me
Oh no but still your voice is ringing in my ears
Don't you want me anymore？ Don't you want me anymore？
And I can't I can't believe it's happening
I know that oh there must be some mistake
You've found yourself another lover and you're glad we made the
break
Oh you don't even you don't even want to see me
You just wanna wave and say 'Goodbye. Go away now, and leave us
alone
No this house is not your own.'
Yeah
And now the whole damn town has come around to laugh at me
Oh yeah Oh they can stare for evermore; you do not care for me
Oh no Oh they can stare now for a hundred thousand years
Don't you want me anymore？
Don't you want me anymore？
Don't you want me anymore？
Don't you want me anymore？
8.She's Dead
She's dying, everybody came to see
She's falling and I know I'll never see her face again
And I don't really know just why she's leaving
All she ever said was she just had to go
And I watch her as she walks away from me
Yeah, I can see her then I know that in a moment she'll be gone
Yeah, she'll be gone and and then I'll say
'You've got to understand. She's not really breathing no not at
all
Those years of endless rain, they just washed her away.'
Oh and I know she's leaving
Yeah she's going for good
Oh and I'd love to go with you but I never would face it
You've blown it this time round
Now I understand just why she's leaving
Oh if she'd have hung around with me
Well you know she'd never go, no nonono
Oh and I know she's leaving
Yeah, she's going for good and I'd love to go with you but I
never would
Oh and I know she's leaving
Yeah, she's going for good and I'd love to go with you oh but I
never would
No I never would
No I never would
No I never would
Oh no Dadadada dadada...
She's never coming back
Face it
She's gone
Oh Lalalala lalala...
No I never would
No I never would.
9.Down By The River
Nadadum dadadada dada da...
Take me down to the river where I would not go before
Through the trees and the rushes to a place we both know
And I'm feeling much younger as I kneel on the ground
Dip my toe in the water of the river where I watched you drown
Nadadum nananana nana na...
Oh when the river ran dry that next year
I could not find your body
Now I'm standing here ready at last to dive down and reach you
again
And I long to be with you
Now these cold nights have come oh I go down to the river but
the river will stop for
no-one
Though I ask it it keeps flowing on
When I ask it, it tells me you're gone
Dadow...
