Adrenochrome

   We'll turn away in a passive decision
   We'll take the steps through the unmarked door
   A look back for another collision
   But the boys of the spires
   Are boys no more
   Not black and red boys
   Frightened by the night
   By the Catholic monochrome
   The Catholic girls now
   Stark in their dark and white
   Dread in monochrome
   The Sisters of Mercy
   High tide
   Wide eyed
   Sped on adrenochrome
   For the Sisters of Mercy
   Filled with
   Panic in their eyes
   Rise
   Dead on adrenochrome
   We had the power
   We had the space
   We had a sense of time and place
   We knew the words
   We knew the score
   We knew what we were fighting for
   For the freedom
   The time to choose
   But time to think
   Is time to lose
   The signals clash
   And disappear
   The shade too loud
   And the sound unclear
   For the
   High tide
   Wide eyed
   Dread in monochrome
   Denied in spite
   Disliked in monochrome
   Panic in their eyes
   Rise
   Dead and monochrome
   The Sisters of Mercy
   Spite
   On adrenochrome
   The way is clear
   The road is closed
   The damage done
   And the course
   Imposed you
   You turn away in a passive decision
   You take the steps through the unmarked door
   A look back for another collision
   But the boys of the spires
   Are boys no more
    repeat 2
 



 
 Afterhours

   One more night spent on your mirror
   Black Mariah, in your eyes
   This stuff so strange and lonely
   England fades away
   In your eyes
   Two O'clock in the morning
   Ninety-four degrees
   Through the stillness through the heat
   The cars go by on fifth and breathing slow
   Get up off the floor and angel put your clothes on
   It's time for us to go
   Let's take a ride
 



 
 Alice

   Alice pressed against the wall     (Alt: 'She stands pressed...')
   So she can see the door
   In case the laughing strangers crawl and
   Crush the petals on the floor
   Alice in her party dress
   She thanks you kindly
   So serene
   She needs you like she needs her tranqs
   To tell her that the world is clean
   To promise her a definition
   Tell her where the rain will fall
   Tell her where the sun shines bright
   And tell her she can have it all
   Today
   Today
   Pass the crystal spread the Tarot
   In illusion comfort lies
   The safest way the straight and narrow
   No confusion no surprise
   Alice in her party dressed to kill
   She the thanks you turns away
   She needs you like she needs needs her pills
   To tell her that the world's okay
   To promise her a definition
   Tell her where the rain will fall
   Tell her where the sun shines bright
   And tell her she can have it all
   Today
   Today
   Alice
   Don't give it way

   And the world keeps turning
   People cold
   And people burning

 Anaconda
   Baby buy an Anaconda
   Baby buy a thing to wear
   She go walking
   She go crawling
   She go sliding through the air
   She go talking warm and fashion
   She go talking debonair
   But see her face turn to a mask
   And passion turn to she don't care
 chorus
   She will, she will, she will, she will let it take her breath away
   She will, she will, she will, she will let it take her life away
   Let it wrap itself around her till it kill her in it's way
   She will, she will, she will, she will, blow away
   Baby hit the rush hour traffic
   Get a ride to anywhere
   Baby buy the number three
   She pay the man
   She pay the fare
   Baby hit the wild blue yonder
   On the mainline
   On the side
   Steal to feed the Anaconda
   Will not see the suicide
    chorus
   Baby finger on the trigger
   Baby shoot formaldehyde
   Turn into a marble figure
   Turn the matter dead inside
   Turn into a China doll
   Maybe go to the final ride
   Baby go where I don't follow
   Baby to the other side
    chorus

The Damage Done
   Somebody tell me about the rhythm of the 4th floor.
   Somebody tell me about the rhythm of the dance floor
   Somebody tell me about the ...
   I need to know about the ...
   Somebody tell me about the perfect bomb
   The royal valley of a Blitzkrieg Bop
   Somebody tell me how to use my gun tools
   Kiss the napalm in the afternoon
   I saw the film, I saw the place
   I live to work for the killing sake
   When I think you're knocked, when the radio died
   And the rhythm played from every side
   See the rubble and the damage done
   See the debris and the damage done
   See the wreckage and the damage done
   See the film, see the damage done
   Somebody tell me about the rhythm of the 4th floor.
       (This is the image, this is the place)
   Somebody tell me about the rhythm of the dance floor
       (This is the way the world will end)
   Somebody tell me about the ...
       (The waltzing man have dancing eyes)
   I need to know about the ...
       (This is the way the world will end)
   Me I'm lost and the radio's dead
   Now I'm relaxed and the radio's dead
   The rhythms gone, the radio's dead
   And the damage done inside my Head Oh.
 
 
Dance On Glass
   Roll of the thunder
   Kiss and the scream
   Hold out my arms and scars start to show
   Howling for the glory of the innocent
   But don't despair for the shame I know
   The taste of ash on my tongue
   Faith and prayers, wanton dust
   Chanting strangers, blood on their cheeks
   Haunt my dreams all covered in blood
 chorus
   Dance
   Dance on glass
   Saints and martyrs
    repeat
   Tarnish, taint and punish me softly
   Cut that bleeds and burning skin
   Screaming in the darkness torn and ragged
   For the love of god, my dreams look dim
   So...
    chorus
   A whisper and a promise lit on fire
   Kiss the hand where the angels dread
   Love is the corpse that draws on dreams
   Rips them apart and tears them to shreds
   So...
    chorus
   Tarnish, taint, and punish me softly
   Hold out the heat and burning skin
   Screaming in the darkness torn and ragged
   For the love of god, my dreams look dim
    repeat verse 3
    chorus
   Dance,
   Dance on glass
 
 
Detonation Boulevard
       On Detonation Boulevard...
   Through the angel rain
   Through the dust and the gasoline
   Through the cruelty of strangers
   To the neon dream
   Long distance information
   Just tell me where the manholes steam
   A little girl waits on my station
   With a new machine
       On Detonation Boulevard...
   I got wrecked out here
   In a Eldorado
   I got wired, white-walled
   This hot-wired sedan
   I caught something weird in Encenada
   I've a brother of sorts in Torquemada
   Long distance information
   Disconnect me if you can
       On Detonation Boulevard...
   Pink noise, white noise,
   And a violet whining sound
   It burns inside this car
   No cops, no signs, no left, no right
   No stops, no turning round
   Well you can run but you can't ride
   You won't get far
       On Detonation Boulevard...
   Bang Bang
       On Detonation Boulevard...
   Through the angle rain
   Through the rust and the gasoline
   Through the cruelty of strangers
   To the neon dream
   Long distance information
   I'll take the same
   I got the fuel for the transformation
   I'm a naked flame
       On Detonation Boulevard...
   Bang Bang
 
 
Doctor Jeep
   Everybody shouts on I Love Lucy
   Pee Wee reads the evening news
   A pre-owned song or a second-hand Uzi
   Everybody got a job to lose
   Here come the golden oldies
   Here come the Hizbollah
   Businessmen from South Miami
   Humming AOR
   Meanwhile...
   I like Cal and his dog Napalm
   I like Ike and his itty-bitty A-bomb
   Everybody got one, I want mine
   You can order it up on Channel Nine
       Meanwhile, in the Sheraton,
       Doctor Jeep plays on and on and on
   There was a time but it's long gone
   Janie got a crush on the Viet Cong
   Burning through downtown Saigon
   Me, I'm sold - down the Mekong
       Meanwhile, in the Sheraton,
       Doctor Jeep plays on and on and on
   Guns and cars and accidents
   The threatened witness my defence
   You can sell one another for fifteen cents
   Well bye-bye mother, it's common sense
       Meanwhile, in the Sheraton,
       Doctor Jeep plays on and on and on
   Everybody shouts on I Love Lucy
   Pee Wee reads the evening news
   A pre-owned song or a second-hand Uzi
   Everybody got a job to lose

Dominion/Mother Russia
   In the heat of the night
   In the heat of the day
   When I close my eyes
   When I look your way
   When I meet the fear that lies inside
   When I hear you say
   In the heat of the moment
   Say, say, say
   Some day, some day, some day, Dominion
   Come a time
   Some day, some day, some day, Dominion
   Some say prayers
   Some say prayers
   I say mine
   In the light of the fact
   On the lone and level
   Sand stretch far away
   In the heat of the action
   In the settled dust
   Hold hold and say
   In the meeting of mined
   Down in the streets of shame
   In the betting of names on gold to rust
   In the land of the blind
   Be...King, king, king, king
   Some day, some day, some day, Dominion
   Come a time
   Some day, some day, some day, Dominion
   Some say prayers
   Some say prayers
   I say mine
   Some day, some day, some day, Dominion
   Some say prayers
   Some say prayers
   I say mine
   In the heat of the night
   in the heat of the day
   When I close my eyes
   When I look your way
   When I meet the fear that lies inside
   When I hear you say
   In the heat of the moment
   Say, say, say
   Some day, some day, some day, Dominion
   Some say prayers
   Some say prayers
   I say mine
   I say mine
   I say mine
   We serve an old moan in a dry season
   A lighthouse keeper in the desert sun
   Dreamers of sleepers and white treason
   We dream of rain and the history of the gun
   There's a lighthouse in the middle of Prussia
   A white house in a red square
   I'm living in films for the sake of Russia
   A Kino Runner for the DDR
   And the fifty-two daughters of the revolution
   Turn the gold to chrome
   Gift...nothing to lose
   Stuck inside of Memphis with the mobile home, sing:
   Mother Russia
   Mother Russia
   Mother Russia rain down down down
   Mother Russia
   Mother Russia
   Mother Russia rain down
 
 
Driven Like The Snow
   Still night, nothing for miles,
   White curtain come down,
   Kill the lights in the middle of the road
   And take a look around...
   It don't help to be one of the chosen
   One of the few, to be sure
   When the wheels are spinning around
   And the ground is frozen through, and you're
   Driven, like the snow
   Pure in heart
   Driven together
   And given
   Away to the west
   A white dress
   'Til the river don't run
   A black dress
   Looking like mine
   'Til the sun don't shine no more
   Where the sky meet the ground
   Where the street fold round
   Where the voice you hold don't
   make no sound, look
   Snow on the river and two by two
   Took a lot to live a lot like you, I don't
   Go there now, but I hear they sung
   Their &quot;Fuck Me And Marry Me Young&quot;
   Some wild idea and a big white bed, now
   You know better than that, I said,
   Like a voice in the wind blow little crystals down
   Like brittle things will break before they turn
   Like lipstick on my cigarette
   And the ice get harder overhead
   Like think it twice but never never learn...
   And the mist will wrap around us
   And the crystal, if you touch it...
   And the cars
   Lost in the drift
   Are there
   And the people that drive
   Lost in the drift
   Are there
   And the cares I've
   Lost in the drift
   Are there
   Theirs, ours,
   Lost in the drift
   Are..
   Driven
   Driven together
   And driven
   Apart
 
 
Driver
   Lay me down the long white line
   Leave the sirens far behind me
   Home to weakness
   Home to silence
   Follow me when the sun goes down
   We will find a heartless highway
   We will wind the windows down
   Call me at the magic hour
   Then the marvels, ... run to ground ... to see the power
   While the wheels go wheeling round and round
   Life is short and life is cruel
   But we have here and we have fuel
   We are never coming down
   Push the creature on it's back
   Lines across the middle and the
   House's vacant everafter
   Gusting through the cold and shadow
   While the pleasure flashes past
   Around we ... the big black car
   ... touch the sky
   ... sell your bracelets
   We are never coming down
   We will be forever wild
   The wheels go wheelings round and round
   And the wheel ...s come in silence
   Follow me when the sun goes down
   We will fly along the highway
   We will wind the windows down
   Call me at the magic hour
   When the ... turns around
   Reason with the ... power
   While the wheels go wheeling round and round
 
 
Emma
   We were together since we were five
   She was so pretty
   Emma was a star in everyone's eyes
   And when she said she'd be a movie queen
   Nobody laughed
   With her face like an angel
   She could be anything
 chorus
   Emmaline
   Emma
   Emmaline
   I'm gonna write your name high on the silver screen
   Emmaline
   Emma
   Emmaline
   I'm gonna make you the biggest star this world has ever seen
   At seventeen
   We were wed
   And I worked hard to earn our daily bread
   And every day
   Emma would go out searching for that play
   That never, ever came her way
   And sometimes she come home and she'd be so depressed
   I'd hear her crying in the back room and be so distressed
   And I'd remember back when she was five
   To the words that used to make Emmaline come alive
   It was...
    chorus
   It was a cold and dark December night
   When I opened up the bedroom door
   To find her lying
   Cold and still upon the bed
   A love letter lying on the bedroom floor
   IT read,
   &quot;Darling I love you
   But I just can't keep living on dreams no more
   I've tried so hard not to leave you alone
   But I just can't keep trying no more&quot;
    chorus

First and Last and Always
   See a body and a dream of the dead days
   A following lost and blind
   Living far from here
   Tomorrow is hard to find
   And it seems like twenty five years of
   Promises and give me more
   Scenes of a hand-me-down in
   Dresses heard before
 chorus  1
   First and last and always: 'til the end of time
   First and last and always: Mine  echo
   Maybe it's not so easy
   Maybe it's a way to long
   Say, say you'll be by me
   When the evidence comes along
 chorus  2
   First and last and always: My calling, my time
   First and last and always: Mine  echo
   My calling
   My time
   See a place and a dream of the dead days
   A following lost and blind
   Cross my heart with silver
   Here's the key
