Scissor Sisters Album

Laura, can't you give me some time,
I got to give myself one more chance.
To be the man that I know I am.
To be the man that I know I am.
Won't you just tell Cincinnati,
I'm Gonna need your love.
Don't you give me your love?

Don't you give me your,
Ch'mon,
Ch'mon,
Where is your love?
Don't you give me your love,
Don't you give me your,
Ch'mon,
Ch'mon,
Where is your love?
Don't you give me your love?
Don't you give me your.

Instrumental

Freeda, cant you spare me a dime?
I got to give myself one more chance.
To ring the band that I know I'm in.
To ring the band that I know I'm in.
Won't you just tell Baby Daddy,
I'm gonna need his love.
Why don't you give me his love?
Why don't you give me his,
Ch'mon,
Ch'mon,
Where is your love?
Don't you give me your love,
Don't you give me your,
Ch'mon,
Ch'mon,
Where is your love?
Don't you give me your love.
Don't you give me your.

This'll be the last time,
I ever do your hair.
One face among the many,
I never thought you cared.
This'll be the last time,
I ever do your hair.
One face among the many,
I never thought you cared.

When you grow up
Livin' like a good boy oughta
And your mama
Takes a shine to her best son
Something different
All the girls they seem to like you
Cause you're handsome
Like to talk and a whole lot of fun

But now your girl's gone a missin'
And your house has got an empty bed
The folks'll wonder 'bout the wedding
They won't listen to a word you said

[Chorus]
Gonna take your mama out all night
Yeah we'll show her what it's all about
We'll get her jacked up on some cheap champagne
We'll let the good times all roll out
And if the music ain't good, well it's just too bad
We're gonna sing along no matter what
Because the dancers don't mind at the New Orleans
If you tip 'em and they make a cut

Do it
Take your mama out all night
So she'll have no doubt
that we're doing oh the best we can
We're gonna do it
Take your mama out all night
You can stay up late
'cause baby you're a full grown man

It's a struggle
Livin' like a good boy oughta
In the summer
Watchin' all the girls pass by
When your mama
Heard the way that you'd been talking
I tried to tell you
That all she'd wanna do is cry

Now we end up takin' the long way home
Lookin' overdressed wearin' buckets of stale cologne
It's so hard to see streets on a country road
When your glasses in the garbage
And your Continental's just got towed

Hello (hello)
Hello (hello)
Is there anybody in there?
just nod if you can here me
Is there anybody home?

Come on now
I hear you're feeling down
well I can ease your pain
and get you on your feet again
relax...
I need some information.. first (first)
relax..
just don't face the facts
can you show me where it hurts

[Chorus 1]
There is no pain you were receding
a distant ship locked on the horizon
you're only coming through in waves
you need to move I can't hear watcha saying
when I was a child I caught a fever
my hands looked like two balloons
now i've got that feeling more to give
I can't explain to you
but if our love is near
this is how I am
I..i..i've been Com-comfortably Numb

Ok (ok)
It's just a little pin-prick
there'll ne no more Hiiiiiiiiiii
but you may feel a little sick
can you stand up now
I do believe It's working
(uh huh) (uh huh)

gotta keep it going through the show
c'mon it's time to go [Repeat x4]

[Chorus 2]
There is no pain you were receding
a distant ship locked on the horizon
you're only coming through in waves
you need to move I can't hear watcha saying
when I was a child I caught a faint glimpse
out of the corner of my eye
I turned to look but it was gone
to get up on my feet but ohh the child has grown
the dream is gone
I..i..i've been Com-com-fortably Numb
I..i..i've been Com-com-fortably Numb

I love the tone that's in your laugh
Gasping for an extra breath
Waiting for the time to pass
I believe in days ahead
Don't spend another night alone
Crossin' where she knew we're dead

I love the tone that's in your laugh
Gasping for an extra breath
Waiting for the time to pass
I believe in days ahead
Don't spend another night alone
Crossin' where she knew we're dead

I love the tone that's in your laugh
Gasping for an extra breath
Waiting for the time to pass
I believe in days ahead
Don't spend another night alone
Crossin' where she knew we're dead

I love the tone that's in your laugh
Gasping for an extra breath
Waiting for the time to pass
I believe in days ahead
Don't spend another night alone
Crossin' where she knew we're dead

I love the tone that's in your laugh
Gasping for an extra breath
Waiting for the time to pass
I believe in days ahead
Don't spend another night alone
Crossin' where she knew we're dead

I love the tone that's in your laugh
Gasping for an extra breath
Waiting for the time to pass
I believe in days ahead
Don't spend another night alone
Crossin' where she knew we're dead

I love the tone that's in your laugh
Gasping for an extra breath
Waiting for the time to pass
I believe in days ahead
Don't spend another night alone

She's quiet when she's down
Strangers from other towns
Nowhere to be found
On this side of the scene

Would you like a cigarette,
Or my hand upon your shoulder?
I think we might have met
Would you like me to come over?

There's lovers in the backseat
Jealous glances now I'm looking for another song
On the radio
I'll take you to a side street
In the shadows you can touch one another now
And I'll just watch the show

She's happy when she's proud
Attention well deserved
Exuberant and loud
A disguise can he know?
How much she needs him
There's static on the sidelines
Can you read my thoughts?
Maybe its the right time

There's lovers in the backseat
Jealous glances now I'm looking for another song
On the radio
I'll take you to a side street
In the shadows you can touch one another now

Creamsicle sky while the sun sets up in the west
Where are the queers on the piers, heard they gave it their best
Now they got jobs at a local fast food chain
Flippin' tricks for the burger, since Lady M jacked their fame
Flippin' tricks for the burger, since Lady M jacked their fame

You can't see tits on the radio
I'll give you five fingers for a one man show
Fasten those pants for the lap dance
Take a shot now this may be your last chance

There ain't no tits on the radio (Oh no)
There ain't no tits on the radio (Oh no)
There ain't no tits on the radio (Oh no)
There ain't no tits on the radio (No no)

Dark room Danny can't see with the lights turned out
Black haired tranny counts sheep with her bed turned down
But the bed's in Jersey and the sheep's on a farm
Dark room Danny hears police alarm
Dark room Danny can't see with the lights turned out
Dark room Danny can't see with the lights turned out

You can't see tits on the radio
I'll give you five fingers for a one man show
Fasten those pants for the lap dance
Take a shot now this may be your last chance

There ain't no tits on the radio (Oh no)
There ain't no tits on the radio (Oh no)
There ain't no tits on the radio (Oh no)

When you're walkin' down the street
And the man tries to get your business
And the people that you meet
Want to open you up like Christmas
You gotta wrap your fuzzy in a big red bow
ain't no sum bitch gonna treat me like a ho
I'm a classy honey kissy huggy lovey dovey ghetto princess

Cuz you're filthy Oooh, and I'm gorgeous:||
You're disgusting Oooh, and you're nasty
And you can grab me oooh, cuz you're nasty

When you're runnin' from a trick
And you trip on a hit of acid
You gotta work for the man
But your biggest moneymakers' flaccid
You gotta keep your shit together
With your feet on the ground
There ain't noone gonna listen
if you haven't made a sound
You're an acid junkie college flunky dirty puppy daddy bastard

Cuz you're filthy Oooh, and I'm gorgeous:||
You're disgusting Oooh, and you're nasty

I left my heart in San Fransisco
It's at some motherfucking disco
The people there where dancin' on it
And that's including Ms. Matronic

Hell if music is the victim then so am I
Of lovin' and a cheatin' the snake gon' bite
I beg and I scream and I cuss and I cry
If music is the victim then som am I

Of your bad fun
Money's all gone but you need some
Lover's on the phone but the got none
Daddy ain't home from the dog run
And you're riding through the city with a shotgun

I left my bag in Pasadena
Where all them girls was doin' Tina
Them bitches sure where crunked up on it
I said I'd rather smoke som chronic

Hell if music is the victim then so am I
Of lovin' and a cheatin' the snake gon' bite
I beg and I scream and I cuss and I cry
If music is the victim then som am I

Of your bad fun
Money's all gone but you need some
Lover's on the phone but the got none
Daddy ain't home from the dog run
And you're riding through the city with a shotgun

I left my man in Houston Texas
Just before he finished breakfast
He said; oh baby fry some more eggs
But I was runnin' on my own two legs

Hell if Jesus had the power than so do I
To rise up from the dead and take up to the sky
I'm bustin' for the money so I get by

I know I'm into you
I don't know what to do
When we talk I feel like I've died twice
Boxers use it's fists
Hockey players break their wrist
You break my heart when you try to play nice

Like a detective without a case
I'll magnify what you say and
Test the implications
It could be you or it could be through
Before it even begins
I'm a fish swimming without fins

Better luck next time
maybe we could have a go
With another kind of love
One that carries on
Better luck next time
Guess I've only one regret
That I didn't get to know you better than I did

You tell me that you're mine
Are you just being kind?
Let's not stretch our imagination
When you look into my eyes
Always get them butterflies
My knees get weak with anticipation

And if I might have a slip of the tongue
Will the fun disappear?
Is the binding coming undone?
You keep me waiting within your grasp
But I can't tell what you feel
And I'm too afraid to ask you

Better luck next time
Maybe we could have a go
With another kind of love
One that carries on
Better luck next time
Guess I've only one regret

Sailing through the tunnels
In the morning by yourself
There's a very special feeling
True sensation all is well
If you stand and reach your arms out wide
close your eyes and try to fly
It's an underground illusion
Tricking you from side to side

We knew all the answers
And we shouted them like anthems
Anxious and suspicious
That God knew how much we cheated

It can't come quickly enough
And now you've spent your life
waiting for this moment
And when you finally saw it come
It passed you by and left you so defeated

Skyscrapers rise between us
Keeping me from finding you
If the concrete architecture
disappeared there'd be so few
Of us left to navigate and
defend ourselves from the tide
It's an underground illusion
Tricking you from side to side

There's no indication of
what we were meant to be
Sucking up to strangers
Throwing wishes to the sea

It can't come quickly enough
And now you've spent your life
Waiting for this moment
And when you finally saw it come
It passed you by and

He said: Is this the return to Oz?
The grass is dead, the gold is brown and the sky has claws
There's a wind-up man walking round and round
What once was a mold city is now a crystal town

Three o' clock in the morning
You get a phone call from the queen
With a hord of heads
She says that they're all dead

You said: Is this the return to Oz?

Miow, This is Anna Matronic from Scissor Sisters
You've just finished listening to our debut album
We hope you've enjoyed it
When you hear this sound [crunch]
You may either start the album over or stay put for special bonus tracks
Thank-you

[crunch]

You are subject to inspections,
Those are not your lips
Have you been kissed by a computer?
Are you able to move your hips?

It's the skins can you see them,
Holding us in?
The skins can you see them?
We cling to our skins.

Is it true, are you changing?
If so I won't come in.
Are you going to be so different?
There's a world without skin.

It's the skins can you see them,
Holding us in?
The skins can you see them?
We cling to our skins.
Mandy Perkins where are you now?
The age of innocence is dead
Legions of legends have shown us how,
When you're ageing it's so hard to keep your head,
When you're ageing it's so hard to keep your head,
I'm not complaining it's so hard to keep my head,
When you're ageing it's so hard to keep your head.

It's the skins can you see them,
Holding us in?
The skins can you see them?
We cling to our skins.

My heart it dances,
Whenever I'm with you
Don't make advances
I'm scared of what you'll do.

We go out,
Have a laugh,
Have a good time,
You and I,
We go on,
Have a drink,
Have a good time
You and I

And when the night is through
It feels so right to kiss your lips
Wish I could say to you
That I've got so much
Come and get it.

Get it, get it
Get it, get it.
Hug and kiss it
Love it love it!
Get it, get it,
Get it, get it.
If you're with it
Come and get it.

Come and get it.

I'm waiting in my room
To pick you up at eight.
There's so much we can do
I promise I won't be late!

We go out,
Have a laugh,
Have a good time,
You and I,
We go on,
Have a drink,
Have a good time
You and I

And when the fun ends
I look into your eyes and say
Oh what a lovely time
I think that this might be the day to

Get it, get it
Get it, get it.
Hug and kiss it
Love it love it!
Get it, get it,
Get it, get it.
If you're with it
Come and get it.

And when the night is through
It feels so right to kiss your lips
Wish I could say to you
That I've got so much
Come and get it.
And when the fun ends
I look into your eyes and say
Oh what a lovely time
I think that this might be the day to...

Get it, get it
Get it, get it.
Hug and kiss it
Love it love it!
Get it, get it,
Get it, get it.
If you're with it
Come and get it.
