Album • 1995
Out of the misery to wash my soul Out of the ground with a new eight count I never came to rock'n'roll Check in the mirror and I don't mind Same old cracks in the face and glass Just a little more defined So I'm making a distance, avoiding the business And me? In time, let it shine, let it shine Well, I wanna go where the people go, yeah (I wanna go where the people go, yeah) I wanna go where the people go, yeah (I wanna go where the people go, yeah) Take me there, anywhere Just so long as there's an atmosphere We'll be round, round, round Come on down, we all went down Show me a hero of head and heart Rid of the stars and the blah-blah-blahs Would be a worthy way to start Rid of the clichés that go round and around I wanna be where the cunts like me Are buried six feet underground If pride is a memory, is nobody angry? And me? In time, let it shine, let it shine Well, I wanna go where the people go, yeah (I wanna go where the people go, yeah) I wanna go where the people go, yeah (I wanna go where the people go, yeah) Take me there, anywhere Just so long as there's an atmosphere We'll be round, round, round Come on down, we all went down Well... (Where, where, where, where) (Where, where, where) I wanna go where the people go, yeah (I wanna go where the people go, yeah) I wanna go where the people go, yeah (I wanna go where the people go, yeah) Take me there, anywhere Just so long as there's an atmosphere We'll be round, round, round Come on down, we all went down We went down We went down We went down (We all went down) We went down (We all went down)

Gift given time Gift given time open to changes in bearing Press covered lies Press covered hearsay and conjecture as details Set image plan Set image plan owing to rank in the scene Well I'll try, I guess I'll never be affected like a big shot I'll never get the money that they've got And I'll be smiling much longer And I'll try to see The one last theory on Starlust I'll dine on water and pie crust I'll make some sense if it kills me And I'll be smiling on V-Day Tight little line Keep weak and smile, you could be part of the dream, boys Ten second span Ten second stay, rope in and wheel out around you Forgotten pride? Stuck making a meal out of a smile and a hairstyle Well I'll try, I guess I'll never be affected like a big shot I'll never get the money that they've got And I'll be smiling much longer And I'll try to see The one last theory on Starlust I'll dine on water and pie crust I'll make some sense if it kills me And I'll be smiling on Gift given time, victory is mine Merit and worth, keeping still, keeping strong Covered past, sowing rage, deaden pain Give a shit, zero one, breakdown, flatline Well I'll try, I guess I'll never be affected like a big shot I'll never get the money that they've got And I'll be smiling much longer And I'll try to see The one last theory on Starlust I'll dine on water and pie crust I'll make some sense if it kills me And I'll be smiling on V-Day And I'll be smiling on V-Day And I'll be smiling on V-Day And I'll be smiling on V-Day And I'll be smiling on

How you been? It's been a while I heard you found someone to make you smile Stick around, you got a pen? It's just so great to see your face again And take a chair, pull up a glass Do you remember when I saw you last? Things have changed with no regret I'm glad we've got to share a little etiquette One of these days in a classical way I was Just in lust with you Shutting out fire where the flame of two lie I was Just in lust with you And in the passion that plays in a chemical haze I was Just in lust with you I know you felt it too Because I miss you, but not that much We only shared a little human touch Nothing wrong or impolite You're acting like pleasure's got a copyright S-s-s-s-so backtrack, get the record straight We only had a day to intimate No one signed on the dotted line We never said there'd ever be a second time One of these days in a classical way I was Just in lust with you Shutting out fire where the flame of two lie I was Just in lust with you And in the passion that plays in a chemical haze I was Just in lust with you You know I felt it too So why the worry? So why the guilt? So why deny a night under the quilt? So we were lonely, so we agree We only did it for the company Things is wrong and things is right Things got a way of changing overnight What's so wrong in turning on? Instead of being alone when the chances are gone 'Cause it was one of these days in a classical way I was Just in lust with you Shutting out fire where the flame of two lie I was Just in lust with you And in the passion that plays in a chemical haze I was Just in lust with you You know, 'cause you You felt it too

(Ba-ba, ba-ba, ba-ba, ba-ba) Baby strange, what does it take to love you? Baby strange, what does it take to loathe you? Stuck in occasions unfinished and severed I'm dead with my eyes open wide Heaven above you, tired and lonely I'm terrified But in an ideal world there'd be a decent conversation And dignified Unlike the arsehole lovers with the blackmail rules of seizure Or suicide, they lied!

Well, I pushed on that button But that button was on too tight (Right) That kind of cold showers morning, noon and night Then, I get to see her face again Well, that sweet Nita Nitro, she's locos tambien Should I go, should I stay?

(Right hand to left hand) And of all the feelings It's the only choice that my senses make It's like I could inject you, babe, aw And of all the faces You're the only human I ever known But ain't it good to be alone sometimes? It's warmer than blood and stronger than bone I scratch and I shake, I'm Jonesing for Jones Streams on my pillow whether I can sleep at last I'm Jonesing for Jones, say goodbye to the past, oh And in the blackest evenin' Just a taste of you and the heavens shine Light enough to daze the blind, aw You've got the power to fix me When I'm sick and twistin' from time I known But ain't it good to be alone sometimes? It's warmer than blood and stronger than bone I scratch and I shake, I'm Jonesing for Jones Streams on my pillow whether I can sleep at last I'm Jonesing for Jones, say goodbye to the past To the past, to the past Oo-ooh Oo-hoo-ooh I'm feelin' warm and sated, a little dehydrated That's okay 'cause there's nothin' in the way this time It rains when I'm dry, it speaks when I'm lone I can't leave it, I tried, I'm Jonesing for Jones Streams on my pillow whether I can sleep at last I'm Jonesing for Jones, say goodbye to the past To the past, to the past, to the past To the past, to the past, to the past

I'm used to bein' alright I'm used to bein' alone I'm used to stayin' out nights Without a-havin' a phone And now you're into my life I never saw you arrive Woah, shit! You got through (I suppose I) My friends are out of the view You're makin' dinner for two You're always keepin' in touch You say I'm drinkin' too much You got me lyin' with ease I'm only keepin' the peace Woah, shit! You got through (I suppose I) (OK! Rock 'n' roll! I wanna see some hands! Tonight, rock 'n' roll can rule the world!) Well, there's a lot of trust And there's a lot of ties Well, there's a lot of girls out there And there's a lot of guys So why's it got to be us Who's gotta jump on the bus? Woah shit! You got through (I suppose I) (I suppose I)

Mix-up start, stop, start, wait a minute Shut down (Down, down, down) Losin' the plot, losin' the plot, losin' the plot 'Til there's nothing to see but the ground Head inside a rut, it's like my mind is shut I hope I cope this time Drink and drugs will only amplify I've still got my music so let's give it a try Sounds that can soothe ya Well, sounds that can move you and improve you, child Caprice, caprice Caprice, caprice Caprice (Caprice) Help me see this pain doesn't matter I'm fine (Fine, fine, fine) No one get me, I don't get me No one get me, I don't get me I just need a little time Head inside a rut, the mental link is cut I'm holdin' on for life No one knows quite what to really say Guess they wouldn't make a difference anyway Friends they can use ya Well, friends they can use you and abuse you, child But never be denied, like the circles in the sky Heaven ain't rollin', rollin', rollin' Caprice, caprice Caprice, caprice Caprice

Hold me, baby, try to think of how you made me Hold me, baby, while the world gets bored and lazy And hold me, hold me Tighter than I ever thought I could be Tighter than you'd hold a memory Time bubblin' under, I will rise I will shake material gain in a new lifetime To be rid of the right When I can only sing the true nature of things And I'll rearrange and I'll stand tall as Centrepoint Time, subtle as sunshine, I will rise I'll abstain with patience I gain in a new lifestyle To be rid of the rage Then I can only sing of the power of learnin' When I realise I can stand tall as Centrepoint Be my drug! Be my drug! Be my drug! Hold me, baby, try to make it a little less crazy And hold me tighter than I ever thought I could be Tighter than you'd hold a memory Time bubblin' under, I will rise, I will train Then I can only sing of the true nature of things And I'll feel the pain I won't feel again And I will rise to the other side Where I'll stay and I'll stand tall as Centrepoint Justice, be my drug

Watch yourself... here it comes... aaaaah... Try to run and you try to hide, hide your face in the other side Sycophantic or paranoid? suck on the milk of your plan destroyed CHORUS: Tell me Where, where, where the fuck you been? Where, where, where? Where's the world through your palace walls? Babylon in the bargain stores Naive says naive guess the rest, life's a play to the soon impressed CHORUS: Tell me Where, where, where the fuck you been? (x3) The more I see is the less I learn (x3), the less I feel is the more I burn CHORUS: Tell me Where, where, where the fuck you been? (x3) ((where... where...) oh yeah)

Honesty will set you free but individuality is wonderland The greatest gift provided, kept inside in case no-one understands Add animal instinct here When all is settled and done there's just empathy chains The crowd was second to none but the memory remains CHORUS: In lilly's garden (x2) Some are small and some were smaller Wise above the size but they're all in here (but they're all in here) The need of company, condition free and wanting me when I was near And down beneath the ground waters meet In the confusion of friendship they don't let you down To break the future in gently, they're always around CHORUS: In lilly's garden (x3)
