I love baby and she loves me
I lost my baby in the deep blue sea
I'm gonna turn my trick
Gonna blow your head
???
Till I'm almost dead

I'm gonna kill surf city with a loaded gun
Got to ? surf city like a nuclear bomb
I'm gonna fight surf city, got to get it down
I'm gonna kill kill get it down
I got to get, get, surf city

I hate honey and she hates me
But that's the way it's supposed to be
I'm gonna run, gonna run till I hit the sun
Some evil cunt's gonna get my gun

I'm gonna kill surf city, got to get me a gun
Got to fry surf city with a nuclear bomb
Got to get them all day
?
?
I'm gonna ?
Surf city

Here she comes now

?

Down to the back where the ? came from

I've gotta sit that mother down

Somebody knows me and I know them

Fuck fuck

?

. . .


Walk away,
You empty head,
You're late she says
Your blonde head,
Your blonde head

So you knock at the door,
The beat of your heart
Your cold empty heart,
Your cold empty heart

I think you're crawling up my spine
I think you're crawling up my spine

Hey hey hey
Hey hey hey

Don't you to stay,
Want you to stay

Hey

Walk away,
You empty head,
You're late she said
Your blonde head,
Your blonde head

So the knives on the street
There's a man on your cross
Cold empty cross,
Cold empty cross

I think you're crawling up my spine
I think you're crawling up my spine

Hey hey hey
Hey hey hey

Want you to stay
Don't want you to stay

I walk away
I walk away
I walk away from your head
Off your head
Off your head
Hanging from your head

I walk
I walk
I walk
Your head
Your head
From your head
From your head
From your head

. . .


Going on a motorbike, ride it to the beach
Screaming at the sun, ??? out of reach
Come on little honey come take me in the dark
Come on little honey (?? just take down the spark ??)
I got a lot of wait
I got a lot of space
I got a lot of time
I look at my hands I got you
I got nothing to lose

On my motorbike dodododododoo dododoo
dodododododoo dododoo
dodododododoo dododoo
dodododododoo dododoo

Here comes now
Here comes now
Here comes now
?? come now

Here comes ?? take it away
Here comes ?? Talking 'bout something makes you want to feel
Kicking to the end ??
Aw touch me baby
Touch me baby

Ride in to the sun cause you tried to move me
Take a ride on down, run out of road
Take a ride my baby (?? and remove this ??) load
Come on baby try to understand
Come on baby let me take your hand

. . .


Well you had tried to walk away
And the sunshine on the dark side of your day
Don't get hit
Don't get hit
You get hit
It's a kick

Don't get hit

??
Don't get hit ??
??
On the coast
Don't get hit
Don't get hit
Don't get hit

(aw she said)
(hey hey hey)
(hey hey hey)
(hey hey hey)

. . .


Well I guess I never saw her in that way
Well I guessed everything always ends that way
Oh I guess I should have tried to make her stay
Keep on coming
Keep on coming

Some people live their lives to understand
Some people live their lives to take command
But the day has come when I must make my stand
Keep on coming
Keep on coming

Don't ever change
Don't ever change
Change
Change
If I can't get to you

It's just the way you tried to hold me down
You got a hold on me and I'm scared to make a sound
And you know everything I ever tried to say
Come on keep on coming please don't walk away
You got a hold on me and I'm scared to let you go

. . .


Take a walk, to the beach
Take a walk, back to the sea
Take a walk with me, back to the beach
I take a walk with you, just out of reach
Just out of reach (x4)

I see the sun here
I see the sand
I see the sun here
You take my hand (x4)
* ? * sand

Just out of reach(x4)

You take a walk with me, back to the sea
You take a walk with me, back to the beach
Just out of reach (x4)

I see the sun on you
I see the sand
I see the sun on you
You take my hand (x3)
Back to the sand

. . .


I'm going back to a happy place
All my life I've lived to taste
Someone else's flavours on my tongue

Cherry take me back to the start of it all
Where everyone's up then everyone falls
Almost could destroy me with her kiss

Oh, I wish that I could feel
And I feel too real
For this grey moat
And me, I'm drifting like the sun
Down on everyone, the TV sky

Save me
Come and save me
Come on touch me
Come on and touch me
Come on hold me
Come on and hold me
I live my life for something I can't see
Let me take you in my summer dream

. . .


The wind is screaming around the trees for my Psychocandy
The world is spreading a strange disease for my
Psychocandy
Candy is the baddest seed
She'll take you down and make you eat
Her fish
Her poison fish
Is on her dish

Candy cannot hear or see
She's in the place she needs to be
She'll take the point to a sharpened blade
And give you something warm to taste

And the world is turning 'round
And on and on and on
And the world is turning 'round
And on and on and on
And the world is turning 'round
And on and on and on
And the world is turning 'round
And on and on and on
And the world is turning 'round
And on and on and on
(Psychocandy)
And the world is turning 'round
And on and on and on
(Psychocandy)
And the world is turning 'round
And on and on and on
(Psychocandy)
And the world is turning 'round
And on and on and on
(She's my Psychocandy)
And the world is turning 'round
And on and on and on
(She's my Psychocandy)
And the world is turning 'round
And on and on and on
(Psychocandy)
And the world is turning 'round
And on and on and on
(Psycho)

Chilled to the bone and five miles to home
I'm messing in the dark and feeling all alone
I got ice in my fire got the heat in my wire
Inject a little heat I'm burning up the tyres

Sidewalking sidewalking sidewalking sidewalking

Talking like I'm on and I'm the only one
I'm making like I'm done and staring like a gun
And I gotta get a car and I gotta get a ride
Gotta get a car got jesus on my side

Sidewalking sidewalking sidewalking sidewalking

Messing in the dark and walking all alone
Alone in the streets I know just where I'm going

Sidewalking sidewalking

Chilled to the bone Chilled to the bone
Hot wired heat all the way home

. . .


I walked forty-seven miles of barbed wire
I use a cobra snake for a neck tie
I got a brand new house on the roadside
Made from rattlesnake hide
I got a brand new chimney made on top
Made out of human skull
Come on take a little walk with me
Arlene tell me who do you love?

Who do you love?
Who do you love?
Who do you love?
Who do you love?
Who do you love?

Tombstone hand and a graveyard mind
Just twenty-two and I don't mind dying
??
??
I rode around the town used a rattlesnake whip
Take it easy baby don't you give me no lip now

Who do you love?
Who do you love?
(I said) Who do you love?
(Ah well) Who do you love? (she said)

The night was dark and the sky was blue
Down the alley and an ice wagon flew
Somebody screamed you should've heard what I've seen
Who do you love?
Who do you love?
Who do you love?
Who do you love?
Who do you love?
Well Arlene took me by the hand she said
"Oh, you boy, don't you understand"
"Oh, boy, dear don't you know?"
"Ah Understand, understand"
Who do you love? she said
Who do you love? she said
Who do you love? she said
Who do you love? she said

(Who do you love?
Who do you love?
Who do you love?)

If everybody had an ocean
Across the USA
Then everybody'd be surfin'
Like Californi-a
You'd seem 'em wearing their baggies
Huarache sandals too
Everybody's gone surfin'
Surfin' USA

You'd catch 'em surfin' at Del Mar
Texas County line
Take a trip to the Ocean
You can feel real fine
All over Manhattan
It's the only way

Everybody's gone surfin'
Surfin' USA

We'll all be planning that route
We're gonna take real soon
We're waxing down our surfboards
We can't wait till June
We'll all be gone for the summer
We're on safari to stay
Tell the teacher we're surfin'
Surfin' USA

Surf, baby, surf
Surf that USA
?
All the way to the USA
?
Surfin' USA
?

. . .


Some kind a strange kind of feelings coming over me
I bled from the back to the front for the world to see

You gotta run
You gotta stay
Cause I'll be screaming to have had my way
I got my head in the gutter
and it looks as if it's gonna stay

I, just can't take it
I, don't you say it
I, I can't take it, oh

I, fuck me down now
I, run me down now
I, run around now, oh

I now have hit the ground
And just look at what I found
Everything is alright when you're down, hey hey

Strange as it can seem
Like livin' in a scream
Everything is alright when you're down, hey hey

Everything I say is going wrong

. . .


We're moving 'round and 'round
Can't hear a single sound
And when I hit the ground
I heard a ringing sound
Uh-huh-huh
I heard a ringing sound
And my head hit the ground
Uh-huh-huh
Inside I'm upside down

You live with so much carelessness
'Cause no one takes you serious
That makes you feel so dangerous
You wish you never was
But you can't see

And if you feel there's no one else
That you're all alone, you're by yourself
Your life is like a broken shell
It doesn't really matter to me
Doesn't matter to me
Doesn't matter to me
Knowing you can't see

Inside I feel so bad
So low I feel so sad
Feels like I'm going mad
Best friend I've ever had
Uh-huh-huh
Feels like I'm going mad
Best friend I've ever had
Uh-huh-huh
So low I feel so sad

You live with so much carelessness
'Cause no one takes you serious
And now you think you're dangerous
You never was but you can't see
And if you feel there's no one else
You're all alone and by yourself
Your life is like a broken shell
It doesn't really matter to me
Doesn't matter to me
Doesn't matter to me
Knowing you can't see

Upside down (x 10)

. . .


Crack of dawn
Cindy's movin' on
Talking Cindy to everyone
Until she's had her fun

She has me
We twist the sun and sea
Still she's talking to everyone
Cindy's had her fun

Though I've heard it before
Still I need you more and more
But I just can't get away
Cindy kills me every day

And I tried and I tried
But you looked right through me
Knife to my head when she talks so sweetly
Knife in my head when I think of Cindy
Knife in my head is the taste of Cindy

. . .


I wish that you and me would be
Inside of a rubber dream
I wish we'd walk and I wish we'd swing
Down to the sunshine thing
I got you and I want my head
I look like I come in death
I don't doubt your word
I don't doubt your word
And it had to be inside my rubber holy dream
It means, it's good.
And it seems that I should go on
Back to where I've been it seems I've gone
I wish I'd seen it all
Inside my covered hole
I think I seen my head
I think I seen my head
I wish I'd seen the time
I wish I could walk in time
I'm making sense in my own way
And I dragged you all the way

. . .


Unlike the mole
I'm not in a hole
And I can't see anyway
Just like a doll
I am one foot tall
But dolls can't see anyway
The frozen stare
The clothes and hair
These make me taste like a man
Tied to a door
Chained to a floor
An hour glass grain of sand
Life in a sack is coming back
I'm like the clock on the wall
Swim in the sea
Swim inside me
But you can't swim far away
I never grew
Covered up by you
And nothing grows anyway
Life in a sack is coming back
I'm like the clock on the wall

. . .


Little Johnny little Johnny

Fuck Johnny fuck

Fuck fuck fuck fuck fuck fuck fuck fuck fuck fucking fuck

Fuck Crack crack crack crack crack crack crack

etc.

Here It Comes Again

[No lyrics]

. . .


When I saw, sky's were red
I was born and I was dead
When I saw her mushroom hair
I was born and I was dead
When I saw her mushroom hair
I was born and I was dead
I gotta keep my distance
I gotta keep my distance
Gotta keep my, gotta keep my
Gotta keep my

When I saw, sky's of rain
I was born and I was dead
I gotta keep my distance
I gotta keep my distance
I gotta keep my, I gotta keep my
I gotta keep my

Hey, hey, hey

etc..

. . .


Walking along a railroad track
Where I go I don't look back
Head to toe I'm dressed in black

Head to toe I'm dressed in black
Head to toe I'm dressed in black
Head to toe I'm dressed in black
Head to toe I'm dressed in black

??

I take the time and I walk along
I take the time and I'm walking down
I'm walking along this railroad track

Take my time she said ??
Take my time ??
Take my time ??
