HEY VENUS (C. McLaughlin)
For sure for sure and actual
You swear by all that`s factual
Insane elastic joy despair
Figures dance and bebop
Take me away from the drop
I cannot help but stand and stare
Sawdust casanovas
Are dying to take over
Lipstick on bankrolls it`s a deal
Telling stinkin lies
Cheap chat and shifty eyes
Double the price you gotta steal
Hey Venus
Hey Venus
Wants us all so bad
Hope it drives her mad
Holy Riders thinkers
Kneejerks and lovesick drinkers
Eyeball eachother through the haze
Swapping tales of woe
Ozone and GI Joe
They can they do and guess who pays
Hey Venus
Hey Venus
Wants us all so bad
Hope it drives her mad
Time to spit it out
Wash it down the spout
You don`t have to Kiss because you pout
All those high hopes locked up inside
Let `em out
Put your doubt aside
Hey Venus
Hey Venus
Wants us all so bad
Hope it drives her mad
Hey Venus
Hey Venus
Wants us all so bad
Hope it drives her mad
BLUE TO BLACK (C. McLaughlin)
Mirror fragments that are staring back
Livid lips and an eye that`s turning blue to black
Cracked
Sweaty walls that keep me company
And the stink of perfume primes my memory
Luxury
Takes you in its arms won`t you honey hush
Senses drawing skin that crawles and squirms to touch
Crushed
Whisper words into my mouth and bite
Coming up for air and to suffocate delight
Spite
Mirror fragments that are staring back
Livid lips and an eye that`s turning blue to black
Cracked
With an aftertaste so sweetly sour
I embrace the shame as it hugs me cheek by jowl
Howl
MESS OF WORDS (C. McLaughlin)
Skim across the surface
Remember to forget those things you`ve heard a thousand times
Just a mess of words
Wishing`s not enough now
Swallow heartbreak unaware you`ve got a heart to break
More than you deserve
Watch me bleed
Just a little something
You watch me bleed
Just a little takes you up
Spoonfed spite deceives you
Nervous stammer that betrays the way you really feel
Words of wisdom slurred
Skim across the surface
Remember to forget those things you`ve heard a thousand times
Just a mess of words
Watch me bleed
Just a little something
You watch me bleed
Just a little takes you up
Just a mess of words
SENSITIZE (C. McLaughlin)
Heard a secret and
Saw you smilin`
So convincing
You`re so beguiling
Leave me breathless and
I can`t think straight at all
Cold as starlight
You sting like sunburn
Searching blindfold you
Melt my fingers
Summer bleeds for you
Testifies
Ultrafervor
Head to toe
Sensitizes
Burns and glows
Helter Swelter
Sweet and Slow
Avalanche
Avalanche
Avalanche
Heard a secret and
Saw you smilin`
So convincing
You`re so beguiling
Leave me breathless and
I can`t think straight at all
Daunburst drowning
Your favourite feelings
Avalanches that chill all healing
Spurning Indigo
Celebrate
Ultrafervor
Head to toe
Sensitizes
Burns and glows
Helter Swelter
Sweet and Slow
Avalanche
Avalanche
Avalanche
Helter Swelter
Sweet and Slow
Helter Swelter
Sweet and Slow
Helter Swelter
Sweet and Slow
ANOTHER DAY (D. O`Néill)
Another day just to soothe this madness
Another day on my own
I look around just to see rain and sadness
Don`t you look back not too soon
Another day
Can`t last forever
I`ll just walk away
From this forever
I`m not so proud of these head and shoulders
But much too proud to stand alone
When you`re not here it`s like gravity is falling on me
So here I stay in my room
Another day
Won`t last forever
I`ll just walk away
From this forever
Another day spent in isolation
Another day lost and gone
I looked to you for some inspiration
You walked away `n cut me down
Another day
Won`t last forever
I`ll just walk away
From this forever
GNAW MARK (D. O`Néill)
Sitting all alone gnaw mark on my face
You`re Cuban heel stamped into place
I start shaken I know why
You switch on my TV eye
Sixth sense from a loaded gun
Sixth sense I feel must be won
Standing all alone when it`s way too late
Love me and seal my fate
Tense and nervous can`t break in
Find me I`ll make you spin
Sixth sense from a loaded gun
Sixth sense I feel just begun
Sitting all alone gnaw mark on my face
No mohaired goon`s gonna take my place
Fueled fever that`s hard to kick
Bend me I`ve dug my ditch
Sixth sense from a loaded gun
Sixth sense I feel so alone
Sixth sense from a loaded gun
Sixth sense I feel must be won
SCUMSURFIN` (C. McLaughlin)
I`m getting out while it`s not too late for me
Seems this triple vision sealed my fate for me
Things I hear and what they`re saying about me
I really need someone to solve this mystery
Losing sleep and missing dreams
Hazy notions half forgotten schemes
Hopes that end in dust and ash
Head is empty and I`m talking trash
Let me take one more slug of your eyes
A muddled message that I`ll have to satisfy
Don`t but me no buts take you own advice
Keep your logic and I`ll hang onto my dice
Laugh at bad luck
Let it ride
Scumsurfin` on a putrid tide
Disappear without a splash
Walk on water while I`m talkin trash
Triple vision sealed my fate
Things I hear are things I hate
Hopes that end in dust and ash
Head is empty talkin trash
Laugh at bad luck
Let it ride
Scumsurfin` on a putrid tide
Disappear without a splash
Walk on water talkin trash
COMPULSION (D. O`Néill)
Torn through a faded sky
Sunk smoothly
Your faded smile
I know why
I`ll bet you think that this is goodby
Frail fragrance of compulsion
Dark seeds of indignation and
Fascination
I said to always thank what I`ve done
Confused where frightened hopes lie
Let loose when silent dreams die
I know why
I never ment to break down and cry
I know why
I`ll bet you think that this is goodby
TINGLE (R. O`Gormain)
Sometimes I couldn`t care if you ran out of air oh no
You see my star kid groover`s holding tight on the reins of my heart
It`s a breeze she`s a tease we were made for the trees
How I want her like this
How I love when she feeds me her Tingle
She`s my mudhoney child as we dance on the waves on the street
You see my all time mover`s boppin hard from her head to her feet
It`s a gas it`s a treat not a hint of deceit
How I want her like this
How I love when she feeds me her Tingle
So so
Why do we always keep looking back
Feelin joy feelin pain we`re exactly the same
I can`t change what always remain oh no no no
So so
Why do we always keep looking back
Feelin joy feelin pain we`re exactly the same
I can`t change what always remain oh no no no
Subterranean spark won`t you fill up the dark with your Tingle
Subterranean spark won`t you fill up the dark with your Tingle
Subterranean spark won`t you fill up the dark with your Tingle
Subterranean spark won`t you fill up the dark with your Tingle
HEAD STAGGERED (C. McLaughlin)
12 seconds into my past
I don`t remember so I don`t even ask
Just let it drop
Just let it drop
Just let it drop drop drop drop drop
A private whiteout that numbs my thoughts
You keep yourself warm with the line you bought
Breath in Breath out
Breath in Breath out
Breath out out out out
Nasty habit let me grab at it
Nasty habit let me grab at it
Head Staggered
Head Staggered
Head Staggered
5 o`clock fever will bite
Desire for virtue but the wrong is right
So tell me when tell me when
Now
So tell me when tell me when
Now Now Now
Dreams that tickertape and blur
I call your name out but the words are slurred
the words are slurred
the words are slurred
the words are slurred slurred slurred
Nasty habit let me grab at it
Nasty habit let me grab at it
Head Staggered
Head Staggered
Head Staggered
Head
Head
Head
Head

ABANDON (R. O`Gormain)
I watched the nightbird fly so low
The burning men their heads aglow
Feast or famine reap or sow
Your interpretation says it all
I say Abandon
I say Abandon
You`ve got no blood in your veins
Everything you`ve done you`ve feined
I cut my teeth on a bed of wire
I sold my soul for my hearts desire
I say Abandon
I say Abandon
I say Abandon
I say Abandon
I get so scared of my own damn vision
I step back revise my position Yeah
I know it`s all my own decision
I said I know it`s all my own decision
I say Abandon
I say Abandon
I say Abandon
I say Abandon
Abandon
Abandon
Abandon
Abandon
Abandon
Abandon
Abandon
Abandon ....
SWEET SHIVER BURN (R. O`Gormain / C. McLaughlin)
Sunset tears
This crummy town will squeeze you
Cling to fears
The ones you`ve always known
Good as Gold
And twice as hard to part with
Truth be told
I just can`t explain
Stand and wait
Nod at fate
It`s too late
Now you`ve been smothered whole
Sweet Shiver Burn
Sweet Shiver Burn
Endless roads
The final flame will daze you
Skyline prayers
The one`s you`ve always dreamed
Don`t hesitate
Smile at fate
It`s so right
That you`ve been smothered whole
Sweet Shiver Burn
Sweet Shiver Burn
Sweet Shiver Burn
Sweet Shiver Burn
Sweet Shiver Burn
Sweet Shiver Burn
Sweet Shiver Burn
Sweet Shiver Burn
