Альбом Echo & The Bunnymen

swung from a chandelier
my planet sweet on a silver salver
bailed out my worst fears
'cos man has to be his own saviour
blind sailors imprisoned jailers
go tamers no-one to blame us

the sky is blue
my hands untied
a world that's true
through our clean eyes
just look at you
with burning lips
your living proof
at my fingertips

walked on a tidal wave
laughed in the face of a brand new day
food for survival thought
mapped out the place
where i'd planned to stay
Lyrics
all the way well behaved
just in case it slips away

the sky is blue
my hands untied
a world that's true
through our clean eyes
just look at you
with burning lips
your living proof
at my fingertips

in an ice-capped fire
of burning wood
in a world of wire
ignites our dreams of starry skies
and you and me
us realized, our bigger themes

take me internally
forever yours
nocturnal me
take me internally
forever yours
nocturnal me

do or die
what's done is done
true beauty lies
on the blue horizon
who or what
what's won is won
impure disguise
Lyricsour vulgar sons

take me internally
forever yours
nocturnal me
take me internally
forever yours
nocturnal me

whatever burns, burns eternally
so take me in turns internally
when I'm on fire, my body will be
forever yours
nocturnal me

in an ice-capped fire
of burning wood
in a world of wire
ignites our dreams of starry skies
and you and me
us realized, our bigger themes

take me internally
forever yours
nocturnal me
take me internally
forever yours
nocturnal me

Here am I
Whole at last with a golden view
Looking for hope
And I hope it's you
Splitting my heart
Cracked right in two
The pleasure of pain endured
To purify our misfit ways
And magnify our crystal days


Where are you
In shadows only I can see
Looking for hope
And you hope it's me
Tattered and torn and born to be
Building a world where we can
Purify our misfit ways
And magnify our crystal days


LyricsPure and to magnify


Here am I
Whole at last with a golden view
Looking for hope
And I know it's you
Splitting my heart
Cracked right in two
The pleasure of pain and joy
To purify our misfit ways
And magnify our crystal days


Purify our misfit ways
And magnify our crystal days


Do do do do do do do do
Do do do do do do do do
Do do do do do do do do
Do do do do do do do do


Days

Froze to the bone in my igloo home
Counting the days 'til the ice turns green
You know when heaven and hell collide
There are no in-betweens

(I'm the yo-yo man)
Flames on your skin of snow turn cold
(Always up and down)
Cold is the wind that blows through my headstone
Collecting the bones of my friend tonight
Sowing the seeds in a fruitless land
You know when prayers all hit the ground
There is no higher hand

(I'm the yo-yo man)
Flames on your skin of snow turn cold
(Always up and down)
Cold is the wind that blows through my headstone
I'm the yo-yo man, always up and down
So take me to the end of your tether

(I'm the yo-yo man)
Flames on your skin of snow turn cold
(Always up and down)
Cold is the wind that blows through my...

(I'm the yo-yo man)
Flames on your skin of snow turn cold
(Always up and down)
Cold is the wind that blows through my...
(I'm the yo-yo man)
And the flames on your skin of snow turn cold
(Always up and down)
Cold is the wind that blows through our headstones

You set my teeth on edge.
You set my teeth on edge.
You think your invincible?
Never come out of the fridge!

C-c-c-cucumber,
C-c-c-cabbage,
C-c-c-cauliflower,
Memory's April Showers!

You are a dying breed,
you are a dying breed,
you once was an anchor,
now you're a tarot king!

C-c-cucumber,
C-c-cabbage,
C-c-cauliflower,
Memory's April showers!

You kick it! Kick it!
Lyrics
Wait for me
on the blue horizon
blue horizon
for everyone.

Wait for me
on the new horizon
new horizon
for everyone.

I wanna be one times one
with you.
I wanna be one times one
with you!

I've decided
to wear my thorn of crowns,
I've decided
to wear my thorn of crowns
inside out back to front upside down all the way 'round...
I've decided
to wear my thorn of crowns,
I've decided
to wear my thorn of crowns
upside down, inside out, back to front, all the way 'round...
down...
down...
down...
down...down, down, down, down!

Under blue moon I saw you
so soon you'll take me
up in your arms
too late to beg you
or cancel it though
I know it must be the
killing time
unwillingly mine

Fate up against your will
through the thick and thin
he will wait until
you give yourself to him
In starlit nights I saw you
so cruelly you kissed me
your lips a magic world
your sky all hung with jewels
the killing moon
will come too soon
Fate up against your will
through the thick and thin
he will wait until
you give yourself to him

stab a sorry heart
with your favourite finger
paint the whole world blue
and stop your tears from stinging
hear the cavemen singing
good news they're bringing

seven seas
swimming them so well
glad to see
my face among them
kissing the tortoise shell

a longing for some fresher feeling
belonging or just forever kneeling
where's the sense in stealing
without the grace to be it

seven seas
swimming them so well
glad to see
Lyricsmy face among them
kissing the tortoise shell

burning my bridges
and smashing my mirrors
turning to see if you're cowardly
burning the witches and mother religious
you'll strike the matches and shower me

in water games
washing the rocks below
taught and tamed
in time with tear flow

I chop and I change and the mystery thickens
There's blood on my hands and you want me to listen
To brawn and to brain when the truth's in the middle
Born of the grain like all good riddles


B-b-burn the skin off and climb the roof top
Thy will be done
B-b-bite the nose off and make it the most of
Your king- kingdom kingdom kingdom


You kill when you talk and the enemy weakens
Your words start to walk when you're not even speaking
If my heart is a war its soldiers are bleeding
If my heart is a war its soldiers are dead


B-b-b-burn the skin off and climb the roof top
Thy will be done
B-b-bite the nose off and make it the most of
LyricsYour king- kingdom kingdom kingdom


Do do do do do do do, do do do do do do do
Do do do do do do do, do do do do do do do
Do do do do do do do, do do do do do do do
Do do do do do do do, do do do do do do do


I've lost and I've gained and while I was thinking
You cut off my hands when I wanted to twist
If you know how to dance to Boney Maroney
He's doing the ballet on both of his wrists


B-b-b-burn the skin off and climb the roof top
Thy will be done
B-b-bite the nose off and make it the most of
Your k-k- k- k- k- kingdom, king-k- k- k- k-


B-b-b-burn the skin off and climb the roof top
And I will be done
B-b-bite the nose off and make the most of
Your king- kingdom, kingdom, kingdom


(You're a bitter malignous person)
(And the death is well overdue)
(You suck the blood that kills you)
(You kiss the hand that hates you)


(You're a bitter malignous person)
(And your death is well overdue)
(Your sucking bitter pain)

All at sea again
And now my hurricanes have brought down this ocean rain
To bathe me again
My ship's a sail
Can you hear its tender frame
Screaming from beneath the waves
Screaming from beneath the waves


All hands on deck at dawn
Sailing to sadder shores
Your port in my heavy storms
Harbours the blackest thoughts


I'm at sea again
And now your hurricanes have brought down this ocean rain
To bathe me again
My ship's a sail
Can you hear its tender frame
Screaming from beneath the waves
LyricsScreaming from beneath the waves...
All hands on deck at dawn
Sailing to sadder shores
Your port in my heavy storms
Harbours the blackest thoughts


All hands on deck at dawn
Sailing to sadder shores
Your port in my heavy storms
Harbours the blackest thoughts


All at sea again
And now my hurricanes have brought down this ocean rain
To bathe me again
My ship's a sail
Hear its tender frame
Screaming from beneath the waves
Screaming from beneath your waves
Screaming from beneath the waves
Screaming from beneath the waves


All hands on deck at dawn
Sailing to sadder shores
Your port in my heavy storms
Harbours the blackest thoughts
