Lyrics

  • Nightboat

    Standing on the edge of a quay
Low lights flashing on the water for me
    Fogging my mind darkens my eyes
Silently streaming for a distant sound
    Ripple river yellows
Rising for a breath of breeding and drowns
    Stillness overcomes me in the night
Listen to the rising water moan

    I'm waiting
Waiting for the night bo-oh-oat I'm waiting
Waiting for the night boat

    Shudders all through me shudder away Echo me, echo me (echo me...)
Am I alone or is the river alive
'Cause it echos me, echos me, echos me

    I'm waiting
    Waiting for the night bo-oh-oat
    I'm waiting
    Waiting for the night boat
    Waiting
    Waiting for the night bo-oh-oat
    I’m waiting
    Waiting for the night boat
    Waiting for the night bo-oh-oat
    I’m waiting
    Waiting for the night boat

    I’m waiting for the night boat

  • We are on procession, with the crucial, with the wild
    Taken in possession by the music & beguiled

    HOLD TIGHT! We're going out TONIGHT
    Under the BLACK MOONLIGHT
Move 'til we're OUT OF SIGHT
Into the BLACK MOONLIGHT
    Alive in the DEAD OF NIGHT
    Under the BLACK MOONLIGHT
    Waving it all GOODBYE
Into the BLACK MOONLIGHT

    Riding on the rhythm of a drama on the wall
    Fire of desire paints your shadow face for war

    HOLD TIGHT! We're going out TONIGHT
    Under the BLACK MOONLIGHT
Dance 'til we're OUT OF SIGHT
Into the BLACK MOONLIGHT
    Alive in the DEAD OF NIGHT
    Under the BLACK MOONLIGHT
    Waving it all GOODBYE
Into the BLACK MOONLIGHT

    dark magic imagine
the shameless attraction
in passion we're nearly there

    HOLD TIGHT! We're going out TONIGHT
    Under the BLACK MOONLIGHT
Move 'til we're OUT OF SIGHT
Into the BLACK MOONLIGHT
    Alive in the DEAD OF NIGHT
    Under the BLACK MOONLIGHT
    Waving it all GOODBYE
Into the BLACK MOONLIGHT
    We're going out TONIGHT
    Under the BLACK MOONLIGHT
    Dance 'til we're OUT OF SIGHT
    Into the BLACK MOONLIGHT
    Alive in the DEAD OF NIGHT
    Under the BLACK MOONLIGHT
    Waving it all GOODBYE
    Into the BLACK MOONLIGHT

    dark magic imagine
the shameless attraction re-setting the fashion for getting some action

  • When I first met you on the roof
You caught me in your web of youth
But now I know the wicked truth
It's much too late so what's the use in fighting?
    You peel me like an onion skin
And wonder at the state I'm in
One day you'll turn up to begin
And find there's nothing left but innuendo Beside you others fade away
Like amateurs in love's charade
Much more than just a game you play
These certain rules become a way of living

    Night after night I try to prove
    That I can resist you
Tied up inside your love voodoo
    Designed to manipulate

    The queen of sensuality
You shelter me from liberty
It's nothing short of piracy
That's not to say it doesn't please me sometimes
    Now this may come as no surprise
But I'm content to compromise
Until the day you realize
That I have been manipulating you

    Night after night I try to prove
    That I can resist you
Tied up inside your love voodoo
    Designed to manipulate

    Yes, I'm tied up inside your loving
    But it's voodoo to me
Every night how I try
How I try to resist you
    But it's no good to me

    Night after night I try to prove
    That I can resist you
Tied up inside your love voodoo
    Designed to manipulate

  • What do you want from me? Why don't you run from me?
    What are you wondering? What do you know?
Why aren't you scared of me? Why do you care for me?
    When we all fall asleep, where do we go?

    Say it, spit it out, what is it exactly
You're payin'? Is the amount cleanin' you out? Am I satisfactory?
    Today, I'm thinkin' about the things that are deadly
The way I'm drinkin' you down
Like I wanna drown, like I wanna end me

    Step on the glass, staple your tongue
    Bury a friend, try to wake up
    Cannibal class, killing the son
Bury a friend, I wanna end me

    What do you want from me? Why don't you run from me?
    What are you wondering? What do you know?
Why aren't you scared of me? Why do you care for me?
    When we all fall asleep, where do we go?

    Keep you in the dark, what had you expected?
Me to make you my art and make you a star
And get you connected?
I'll meet you in the park, I'll be calm and collected
    But we knew right from the start that you'd fall apart
    'Cause I'm too expensive

    It's probably somethin' that shouldn't be said out loud
    Honestly, I thought that I would be dead by now (Wow)
    Calling security, keepin' my head held down
Bury the hatchet or bury a friend right now

    The debt I owe, gotta sell my soul
'Cause I can't say no, no, I can't say no
Then my limbs all froze and my eyes won't close
    And I can't say no, I can't say no

    Step on the glass, staple your tongue
    Bury a friend, try to wake up
    Cannibal class, killing the son
Bury a friend

    What do you want from me? Why don't you run from me?
    What are you wondering? What do you know?
Why aren't you scared of me? Why do you care for me?
    When we all fall asleep, where do we go?

  • Once upon a time
Science opened up the door
We would feed the hungry fields
    Till they couldn't eat no more
But the potions that we made
    Touched the creatures down below
    And they grew up in a way
That we'd never seen before

    Supernature, supernature
    Supernature, supernature
    Supernature, supernature
    Supernature, supernature

    They were angry with the man
    'Cause he changed their way of life
    And they take their sweet revenge
    As they trample through the night
    For a hundred miles or more
You can hear the people cry
But there's nothing you can do
    Even God is on their side

    Supernature, supernature
    Supernature, supernature
    Supernature, supernature
    Supernature, supernature

    How can I explain?
Things are different today
    Darkness all around
And nobody makes a sound
    Such a sad affair
No one seems to care

    Supernature, better watch out!
    Look at you now, better watch out!
    Look at you now!

    Supernature
Watch out
There's no way to stop it now
You can't escape, it's too late
    Look what you've done:
There's no place that you can run
    The monsters made, we must pray

    Supernature, better watch out!
    Look at you now!
    Supernature, better watch out!
    Supernature!
    Look at you now!

    Better watch out
There's no way to stop it now
You can't escape, it's too late
Look what you've done
There's no place that you can run
    The monster's made, we must pray

    Maybe nature has a plan
To control the ways of man
He must start from scratch again
    Many battles he must win
Till he earns his place on earth
    Like the other creatures do
Will there be a happy end?
Now that all depends on you

    Supernature
    Supernature
    Supernature
    Supernature

  • Halloween girl seize the fray
Bruvz & sistaz lead the way
Shackled to the rhythm your soul is weighed
So y'better get down on y'knees & pray
Coming up for The Hawkser Mad-Bull
Jumping on the hot seat, lying in the dead pool Delivery quake, expensive mistake
The damage, the damage, the damage, the damage

    Hey, no way, some ghost jive in a AC Cobra
Auto da Fé, get dirty up on a DANSE MACABRE Hey, no way, I had you down for the cat's pyjamas Auto da Fé, get dirty up on the DANSE MACABRE

    If y'don't mind, if y'don't mind (x3)
If y'don't mind dipping down the goldmine

    Zombie in the back room, nuns in the bed
    Kids in KISS makeup toasting the bread
An Elvis moans a lone Natty Dread
With Death in the living room, offering head
    Are you watching, are you watching?
    Collars & chains & cuffs are matching
    Kami-kaze stag-do twist & shout
At Sudan Archives on a girls night out

    Hey, no way, some ghost jive in a AC Cobra
Auto da Fé, get dirty up on a DANSE MACABRE
    Hey, no way, I had you down for the cat's pyjamas
    Auto da Fé, get dirty up on the DANSE MACABRE

    For heaven's sake don't blow your karma
    Liberate your DANSE MACABRE

  • Wise on a birthday party
In a world full of surprising fireworks
And sudden silence
Sh......
Lies on a stranger's bed
The new day breaks like a speeding train or an old friend
    Never expected, but never knocking
Holding your own in a battered car
All night parties, cocktail bars and smile
When the butterfly escapes the killing jar

    Sure eyes awake before the dancing is over
    Wise or naked in secret Oktober

    Freefall on a windy morning shore
Nothing but a fading track of footsteps
Could prove that you'd ever been there
Spoken on a cotton cloud
Like the sound of gunshot taken by the wind
And lost in distant thunder
Racing on a shining plain
And tomorrow you'll be content to watch
As the lightning plays along the wires and you'll wonder

    Sure eyes awake before the dancing is over
    Wise or naked in secret Oktober

    Sure eyes awake before the dancing is over
    Wise or naked in secret Oktober

  • This town, is coming like a ghost town
    All the clubs have been closed down
    This place, is coming like a ghost town
    Bands won't play no more
    Too much fighting on the dance floor

    Do you remember the good old days before the ghost town?
    We danced and sang, and the music played in a de boomtown

    This town, is coming like a ghost town
Why must the youth fight against themselves?
    Government leaving the youth on the shelf
    This place, is coming like a ghost town
No job to be found in this country
Can't go on no more
The people getting angry

    This town, is coming like a ghost town
    This town, is coming like a ghost town
    This town, is coming like a ghost town
    This town, is coming like a ghost town

  • I can't seem to face up to the facts
I'm tense and nervous, and I can't relax
    I can't sleep cause my bed's on fire
    Don't touch me, I'm a real live wire

    Psycho killer,

    You start a conversation, you can't even finish it
    You're talking a lot, but you're not saying anything
    When I have nothing to say, my lips are sealed
    Say something once, why say it again?

    Psycho killer,
qu'est-ce que c'est?
Fa-fa-fa-fa, fa-fa-fa-fa-fa, fa, better
    Run, run, run, run, run, run, run away

    Ce que j'ai fait, ce soir-là
Ce qu'elle a dit, ce soir-là
Réalisant mon espoir
Je me lance, vers la gloire, okay
    Aye-ya-ya-ya-ya-ya-ya-ya-ya-ya-ya-yeah
    We are vain and we are blind
    I hate people when they're not polite

    Psycho killer,

  • Even on the darkest night when empty promise means empty hand
And soldiers coming home like shadows turning red
And when the lights of hope are fading quickly then look to me
    I'll be your homing angel I'll be in your head

    Because you're lonely in your nightmare let me in
    And there's heat beneath your winter let me in

    I see the delta traces living lonely out on the limb
And a passing glimmer warm beneath your skin
    Please tread gently on the ground when all around you earth turns to fire
Only get a second chance when danger’s on the wing

    Because you're lonely in your nightmare let me in
    Because there's heat beneath your winter let me in
    And it's silent on your stonefield let me in

    She's a very kinky girl
The kind you don't take home to mother
She will never let your spirits down
Once you get her off the street, ow, girl
She likes the boys in the band
She says that I'm her all-time favorite
When I make my move to her room, it's the right time
    She's never hard to please, oh no

    That girl is pretty wild now
    The girl's a super freak
    The kind of girl you read about
    In lurid magazines
    That girl is pretty kinky
    The girl's a super freak
    I really love to taste her
    Every time we meet
    She's alright, she's alright
That girl's alright with me, yeah
    Hey, hey, hey, hey!

    She's a super freak, super freak
    She's super-freaky yow (everybody sing)
    Super freak, super freak - hey
She's a super freak, super freak She's super-freaky yow
She's a super freak, super freak She's super-freakin out now
    She's a super freak, super freak She's super-freaky yow
    She's a super freak, super freak

  • From the cradle bars comes a beckoning voice
    It sends you spinning, you have no choice

    You hear a laughter cracking through the walls
    It sends you spinning, you have no choice
    You hear a laughter cracking through the walls
    It sends you spinning, you have no choice

    Following the footsteps of a rag doll dance
We are entranced; spellbound
Following the footsteps of a rag doll dance
We are entranced; spellbound
Spellbound, spellbound, ooh-ooh
Spellbound, spellbound, spellbound, spellbound

    And don't forget when your elders forget
    To say their prayers
Take them by the legs
And throw them down the stairs
    When you think your toys have gone berserk
    It's an illusion, you cannot shirk
You hear a laughter cracking through the walls
    It sends you spinning, you have no choice

    Following the footsteps of a rag doll dance
We are entranced; spellbound
Following the footsteps of a rag doll dance
We are entranced; spellbound
Spellbound, spellbound, ooh-ooh
Spellbound, spellbound, spellbound, spellbound

    Oh, oh, oh, oh
Oh, oh, oh, oh
    Following the footsteps of a rag doll dance
    We are entranced
Following the footsteps of a rag doll dance
    We are entranced
Entranced, entranced
Entranced, entranced
Entranced, entranced

  • I see your red door I say paint it black
No colour in my life, so just turn it black
I see the girls walk by dressed in their summer clothes
    I'm gonna turn my head 'til the darkness goes

    See this line of cars, they're all painted black
Dead flowers & my love, both never to come back
    You people, turn your heads, quick now, look away
    Like the newborn babies that just happen everyday

    I look inside myself and see my heart is black
I see my red door, I must have it painted black
Maybe then I'll fade away and not have to face the facts
    It's not easy facing up when your whole world is black

    No more will my green sea shade deeper blue
Maybe now this dark thing starts happening to you
If I look hard enough into the setting sun
My love be laughing at me before the morning comes

    Huh-huh-huh-huh-huh-huh-huh Huh-huh-huh-huh huuuuh!

    I wanna see you baby, painted black
Black as night, black as coal
I wanna see the sun blotted out from the sky
I wanna see it painted, painted, painted, painted black
    Yeah

  • These are words fallen from fire
Ashes on the river tide
Into love there will be a pathway
And I will see you on the other side
Stories like the evening stars are showing up
In that light, yeah it's alright whatever's fills your cup
    Ah ... confession
    In ... the afterlife

    Heathen eyes painted on iron
See everything you leave behind
Once beholden always forgotten
Upon this blameless sea of never mind
Secrets woken hurt nobody you'll be sure
With malice broke when nothing really matters anymore
    Ah ... confession
In ... the afterlife
Ah ... confession
In ... the afterlife

    Stories like the evening stars are showing up
In that light, yeah it's alright whatever's fills your cup
    Ah ... confession
In ... the afterlife
Ah ... confession
In ... the afterlife
