Текст песни:

Come now honey I may be just a fool, but I’ve got my principles I’m unlucky You may be alive but you’re not invincible It’s just blindness Kicking up a fuss and it’s not for the first time Oh your highness Someone musta told ya you once were a friend of mine I’ve never been shy but I’ve kept my head down Oh oh oh Knowing about enough to get by this old ghost town Oh oh oh Put on your best dress I’ll take you dancing under the street lights Oh you’re charmless You ain’t too pretty but I’ve seen ya tonight It’s just kindness I was brought up well and I won’t leave you crying Oh your highness You ain’t too bright but as long as you’re trying I’ll do my best to keep my head down Oh oh oh Putting my brains to the test in this old ghost town Oh oh oh I’ve never been shy but I’ve kept my head down Oh oh oh Knowing about enough to get by this old ghost town Oh oh oh I’ll do my best to keep my head down Oh oh oh Putting my brains to the test this in old ghost town Oh oh oh, oh oh oh, oh oh oh

  • Well look out Sunshine here they go You’ve got yesterday’s heroes in last nights clothes You’re a game old boy judging by the way you walk Well there’s no use telling me to leave I’ve seen a half a dozen ghosts but I don’t believe I’m a cynical cunt and I’m much too lazy to change And tell my friends I’ll be around Getting nowhere sleeping somewhere With a girl I dreamed oh yeah And sing that old song how does it go? Look oyt Sunshine here’s the punch line No one gets you any more Well look out Sunshine here they come But they only play for money you better not run It’s the sell out show that no one wants to go to, yeah Well there’s non so blind as them that don’t agree They steal the money from you’re pockets almost viciously You’re a sane old boy and you’re much to crazy to change And tell my friends I’ll be around Getting nowhere sleeping somewhere With a girl I dreamed oh yeah And sing that old song how does it go? Look oyt Sunshine here’s the punch line No one gets you any more And what do you mean you were born to love this scene And they would string you up gladly If they knew just how lazy you’d been Tell my friends I’ll be around??? And tell my friends I’ll be around Getting nowhere sleeping somewhere With a girl I dreamed oh yeah And sing that old song how does it go? Look oyt Sunshine here’s the punch line No one gets you any, no one needs you any No one geys you any more
  • Well I get down so I can get up And I break down so I can break up I was thinking about thinking about thinking And went and made my head swim And if I walked with you awhile you would make it worth my while And proceeded to tear me limb from limb The bet was made I kneeled and prayed And went off like a shotgun You said I reminded you of a ghost But how do you know I’m not one You told me if I kissed you it’d be easier in the long run You said you’d give me a reason but you know I’ve already got one I slow down so I can speed up (yes he does, yes he does, oh he does) And I wind down so I can wind up (yes he does, yes he does, oh he does) I was thinking about thinking about thinking But it only made my brain freeze And if I walked with you awhile you would make it worth my while How did you know I love tricks like these The bet was made I kneeled and prayed And went off like a shotgun You said I reminded you of a ghost But how do you know I’m not one You told me if I kissed you it would be easier in the long run You said you’d give me a reason but you know I’ve already got one And if I could paint you a picture it’d be nothing less than tragic I would trade a lifetime for a moment now of magic I would kick the bucket if it didn’t sound so drastic But my feet are made of tombstones and my dreams are made of plastic (oh yeah, oh yeah) I was way out of tune (oh yeah, oh yeah) Just a joke, a cartoon (oh yeah, oh yeah) Oh I did not swoon (oh yeah, oh yeah) For six days in June (oh yeah, oh yeah) I was getting down low (oh yeah, oh yeah) Baby blow by blow (oh yeah, oh yeah) A trainwreck honeymoon (oh yeah, oh yeah) For six days in June (oh yeah, oh yeah) (oh yeah, oh yeah) (oh yeah, oh yeah) (oh yeah, oh yeah)
  • Oh I miss the womb Put me back and make it soon Where’s my bliss, what’s this sound Have you seen my solid ground All is nothing being everything Tell me why, tell me when Naked soup, tasteless bread Can I have your life instead I’m the singer, I’m the song Give it up, give it up Do me right and do me wrong Give it up, give it up Won’t you take me home please Make me feel something real Sing me from your window Let me be your side show Let me be the one to say I told you so I told you so Oh I spoke too soon All these answers make me swoon Where’s my fire, what’s this noise Is this even my own voice All is nothing though I don’t know why Please don’t let this pass me by Where’s my bliss, what’s this sound Have you seen my solid ground I’m the singer, I’m the song Give it up, give it up Do me right and do me wrong Give it up, give it up Won’t you take me home please Make me feel something real Sing me from your window Let me be your side show Let me be the one to say I told you so I told you so Baby you’re a bad man Everybody knows Better take what you can steal Before that hurricane blows You were there when Adam fell from bliss And no one knew your name Better leave now from the way you came Kneel down Make no sound Here comes your last time around Take that smile from off your lips Where you going time just slips
  • She can't help it, the girl can't help it You can find her scratching around in the dark Just another candle chasing a spark You can find her screaming along with the ghosts Reminds you she's the one you needed the most And then you're out there on your own again No one believes you when you lie I still see all the old girls now and then Catching the moonlight as they cry She can't help it, the girl can't help it The wrong way round's the right way up when she calls You can laugh but it won't mean nothing at all Yes you can find her scratching away in her room Stumblin' round by the light of the stragglers moon And then you're out there digging holes again Six million people can't be wrong Some day you'll buy the perfect soul and then you can get back where you belong And then you're out there on your own again No one believes you when you lie I still see all the old girls now and then catching the moonlight when they cry
  • Well she came round here and nobody could speak her name And she talked in circles like she needed someone else to blame And everybody prayed she would go back from where she came The sun didn’t shine and for forty days all it did was rain Well the lights burned out, and the circus they got out of town And the priest’s last rites were the only words that could be found The loverboys couldn’t tell the time ’cause the phones were down The poets couldn’t find the words to describe the sound Jeannie, Jeannie, Jeannie, Jeannie Nitro Jeannie, Jeannie, Jeannie, Jeannie Nitro Came, she saw, she made them cry Lost their hearts but don’t know why Jeannie, Jeannie, Jeannie, Jeannie Nitro Jeannie, Jeannie, Jeannie, Jeannie Nitro Spoke the words and begged to die Sold her dream for you and I Well the good girls danced with the devil in the open yard (Jeannie, Jeannie, oh Jeannie, Jeannie) But the blood from their thighs was the only thing that made him hard (Jeannie, Jeannie, oh Jeannie, Jeannie) She couldn’t read the signs on the wall where they had her scarred She was the one time lover of a victim of the avant-garde Well it was said she was raised by the praise of a furious man (Jeannie, Jeannie, oh Jeannie, Jeannie) But she couldn’t tell you how or when that it all began (Jeannie, Jeannie, oh Jeannie, Jeannie) A woman has to feel alive any way she can She don’t plead dumb or pretend that she don’t understand Jeannie, Jeannie, Jeannie, Jeannie Nitro Jeannie, Jeannie, Jeannie, Jeannie Nitro Came, she saw, she made them cry Lost their hearts but don’t know why Jeannie, Jeannie, Jeannie, Jeannie Nitro Jeannie, Jeannie, Jeannie, Jeannie Nitro Spoke the words and begged to die Sold her dream for you and I Well she came round here and nobody could speak her name And she talked in circles like she needed someone else to blame And everybody prayed she would go back from where she came The sun didn’t shine and for forty days all it did was rain Jeannie, Jeannie, Jeannie, Jeannie Nitro Jeannie, Jeannie, Jeannie, Jeannie Nitro Came, she saw, she made them cry Lost their hearts but don’t know why Jeannie, Jeannie, Jeannie, Jeannie Nitro Jeannie, Jeannie, Jeannie, Jeannie Nitro Spoke the words and begged to die Sold her dream for you and I
