1.SO YOUNG

Because we're young, because we're gone
we'll take the tide's electric mind, oh yeah? oh yeah

we're so young and so gone, let's chase the dragon, oh

Because we're youn, because we're gone
We'll scare the skies with tiger's eyes, oh yeah? oh yeah

we're so young and so gone, let's chase the dragon, oh
let's chase the dragon...

...from our home high in the city where the skyline
stained the snow, I fell for a servant who kept me on the boil

We're so young and so gone, let's chase the dragon from our
home!


2.ANIMAL NITRATE

Like his dad you know that he's had
Animal nitrate in mind
Oh in your council home he jumped on your bones
now you're taking it time after time

oh it turns you on, on, on, now he has gone
oh what turns you on, on, on, now your animal's gone?

Well he said he'd show you his bed
and the delights of his chemical smile
so in your broken home he broke all of your bones
now you're taking it time after time

oh it turns you on, on, on, now he has gone
oh what turns you on, on, on, now yor animal's gone?

what does it take to turn you on, on
now he has gone?
now you're over 21?
now your animal's gone?
animal, he was animal, an animal


3.SHE'S NOT DEAD

she'll come to her end locked in a car
somewhere with exhaust in her hair
What's she called? I dunno,
she's fucking with a slip of a man while the engine ran

And he said 'She's not dead, she's gone away, gone away' he said
He said 'She's not dead, just go away go away' he said

In the car he couldn't afford they found his
made up name on her ankle chain
so don't call, don't call her at home
she's fucking with a slip of a man while the engine ran

and he said 'she's not dead,
she's gone away gone away' he said
he said 'she's not dead, she's gone away gone away'
he said 'just gone away, gone away' he said
she's gone away to someone else's bed


4.MOVING

shame on me well I had the beast you see
and if he can take it I can take him home with me
shame on her she's a lovely little number
and when we go lassoing you get lassoed, all of you
If you can take it, I can take it

And we're moving, so moving, so we are a boy, we are a girl
so moving, so moving...

shame on the girl, she's got a big black dog in her
and while tough kids sing about tough kids she just skins the
world
we'll never never play the harp, and we'll stick like sick on
the stars
and if you can take it I can take these stones from my heart
if you can take it, I can take it

and we're moving, so moving, so we are a boy we are a girl
so moving, so moving....

If you can take it, I can take it, all of me
If you can take it, I can take it all
If you can take it, I can take it, all of me
If you can take it, I can take it all!


5.PANTOMIME HORSE

I was born as a pantomine horse
ugly as the sun when he falls to the floor
I was cut from the wreckage one day
this is what I get for being that way

Well did you ever, did you ever go round with them?
Well did you ever, did you ever go round the bend?

I was conned by a circus hand
Tragic as the son of a superman
'I would die for the stars' she said
This is what I get for my beautiful head

Well did you ever, did you ever go round with them?
well did you ever, did you ever go round the bend?

...ever tired it that way, have you ever tried it that way?


6.THE DROWNERS

Won't someone give me a gun?
oh well it's for my brother
well he writes the line wrote down my spine
It says 'Oh do you believe in love there?'

So slow down, slow down, you're taking me over
And so we drown, sir we drown, stop taking me over

Won't someone give me some fun?
(and as the skin flies all around us)
We kiss in his room to a popular tune
Oh, real drowners

slow down, slow down, you're taking me over
And so we drown, sir we drown,
stop takin' me over!


7.SLEEPING PILLS

Angel, don't take those sleeping pills, you don't need them
Though it's just time they kill
Angel, give me your sleeping pills, you don't need them
Give me the time they kill

You're a water sign, I'm an air sign
Gone gone to Valium, can you get me some?
You're a water sign, and I'm an air sign
Too Siamese to catch the leaves from those trees

Angel, don't take those sleeping pills, you don't need them
though it's just time they kill

you're a water sign, I'm an air sign
Pumped up with Valium, could you get me some?
You're a water sign, I'm an air sign
With sweet F.A. to do today, with sweet F.A. to do today...

...Angel, don't take those sleeping pills


8.BREAKDOWN

Back where the dogs bark
where still life bleeds the concrete white
try not to go too far inside your mind
back where the cars decide
where the lame star limps an endless mile
have I gone too far inside my mind?

oh if you were the one would I even notice now my mind has gone?
oh if you were the one, would I even notice?

Back where the car was parked
Where the canine in the A-line stole your time
you can only go so far for womankind

oh if you were the one, would I even notice now that he has
come?
oh, if you were the one, would I even notice?

Does your love only come, does your love only come, does he only
come in a Volvo?


9.METAL MICKEY

well she's show showing it off then
the glitter in her lovely eyes
show show showing it off then
and all the people shake their money in time

she sells heart, she sells meat
oh dad, she's driving me mad, come see

we shake shake to the trumpet
and through the slippery city we ride
skyline swine on the circuit
where all the people shake their money in time

she sells heart, she sells meat
oh dad, she's driving me mad, come see


10.ANIMAL LOVER

I see you're moving, see you're moving, moving in with her
You'll pierce your right ear, pierce your heart there
This skinny boy is one of the girls
cos around my neck and around her neck hangs everything you are
I know you've been inside but what were you in for?

Animal lover, animal lover, animal lover?

I see you're moving, see you're moving like wildlife from the
waist
But when your name's scratched in on a shiny ring your waist is
my resting place
And around my neck and around her neck hangs everything you are
I know you've been inside but what were you in for?

Animal lover, animal lover, animal lover?


11.THE NEXT LIFE

see you in your next life when we'll fly away for good
stars in our own car we can drive away from here

far away, so far away, down to Worthing and work there
far away, we'll go far away and flog ice creams til the
company's on its knees

see you in your next life when we'll fly away for good
