Flashbacks of girlfriends pastThe way her mouth moved when she laughedIt’s easy to feel sadI swear it never hurt that badAnd I don’t know whyAnd I’m not sure how
I’ve been living the dreamAnd now she claims it set her backShe broke the rules she wroteI sent her letter back ‘cos I’m fineAnd I don’t know whyBut it’s alright now
She said her pet hate was a cheatI packed her bags and watched her leaveAnd head for the station
Lately it’s like I do what I want to
And maybe it’s ‘cos she’s not there to stop me doThe things she said would bring her downIt wasn’t simple ‘til she weren’t around
She’s so not in the know
She said she’d never let me goThen left me in the coldAnd everyone who knows us knowsThat it weren’t quite right
I’d worked out in my head
That all the plans we’d made were doneShe slept round and she creptShe’d always said it looked like funAnd I loved her liesBut I caught her outShe claimed it must be make believeAnd ripped my heart from off my sleeveAnd I’m not even sure that it mattersLately
I still retain my common senseI’ve heard she’s tired of sitting on the fenceMaking promises she’d never keepBreaking promises she made to me
Lately it’s like I do what I want to
And maybe it’s ‘cos she’s not there to stop me doThe things she said would bring her downIt wasn’t simple ‘til she weren’t aroundLatelyLatelyLately

Like a man who’s got nothing left to loseNot a penny but everything to proveLike a man on the edgeWho wishes that she had never left
Running in a circle to tie up ends still looseTryna pull his neck from out the nooseAnd win back her respectBut he’s not looking his best
When it all breaks downIt all breaks down, downDown
He can’t bare to consider someone newWhiskey and cigarettes won’t see him throughSays that he’s got a planHolding on as tight as he can
She played him for a foolBut he taught her toShe’s only ever happy
When it all breaks downIt all breaks down, downDown
She was trouble from the very startShe had a knack of tearing hearts apartNo one knows where it endsHe’s tryna not be nobody’s friend
And it all breaks downIt all breaks down, downDown

She turned me on till

I can’t come down.

She took me one summer night, couldn’t take it back if I tried.

She’s studying harder for a better life, she does it and it’s done.

She goes out now with a motorbike, the kind of guy I wish I didn’t like.

She does him. He’s been done.

She turned me on.
I can’t come down.

So we left town with the band that night, the rock stars in their dying light.

She wouldn’t even kiss me when I said goodnight.

She did me. I was done.

She turned me on. And now I can’t come…

I feel raw… Turn me on.

She turned me on.
She turned me on ‘till I can’t come down.
I Can’t come down.

There's a bad moon in my eye it's rising

Keeps on rising

Watch out for the poison kiss

Cos I know that you strike and never miss

Snake ! Snake !

You viper , slip slider
Beautiful and deadly
I know that you are my enemy

You shaker, heartbreaker
Watch out for the poison kiss
Cos I know that you strike and never miss

Snake ! Snake !

There's a bad moon in my eye it's rising

Keeps on rising

Watch out for the poison kiss

Cos I know that you strike and never miss

Snake ! Snake !

There's a bad moon in my eye it's rising

Keeps on rising

Watch out for the poison kiss

Cos I know that you strike and never miss

That's the end
all day long, all night long, around and around

all night long around and around

She's got, she's got, she's got an obsession for privacy
all day long, all night long, around and around.
That's the end.

all day long, all night long, around and around

that's the end.

Why anything I do, I can't get you out of my mind
And everywhere I go things never change

They never change. Change. Change.

Why anything I do, I can't get you out of my mind
And everywhere I go things never change

They never change. Change.

Why anything I do, I can't get you out of my mind
And everywhere I go things never change

They never change. They never change.

They never change. They never change.

It’s not those mics called the overheads
And it’s not those crystals that fit into the palm of my hands
No they won’t crack the safe where I piled hundreds of words just for you
Will you try to keep me even if I never break the silence ?

You’re my doudou boy, you’re my hut, you are my intimate shed
I like our groovy love even if we are obviously untuned

We’ll have to gamble
Conceal our secrets
We’ll have to set aside
Our rusty strings
Lead and metals pointed upon us
Our disclocated concerto
Shine and shine with our groovy frequencies
Shall we try to keep on even if we’re never in tune ?

You’re my doudou boy, you’re my hut, you are my intimate shed
I like our groovy love even if we are obviously untuned

And if it was a perfect love, it wouldn’t be the same tune
Wouldn’t you miss those dirty sounds… untuned ?
Untuned…
