Альбом The Von Bondies

There is a place
That we all know
It shows its face
And goes unnoticed
And chances are
The crowds will go
To see the sounds below

I like the beat
Of a different drum
The kind of sound
You can't help notice
And chances are
The crowds will grow
To reel the dirt below


We are the spark
We are the great
We keep our cities
Loud and far
We keep their ears glued
To the streets
We are the underground


We're like a death
We can't be told
The bitter taste
In all that goes
And chances are
The crowds will go
To see the sounds below

A lot of bands
Will come and go
Its universe
All out it grows
And chances are
The crowds will go
To see the sounds below


chorus

Go to sleep little baby
And shut your mouth
It will soon be over
Gonna work things on out

Can you say a good word about us?
Can you say a good thing, good thing?
Can you say a good word about us?
Can you say a good good good good thing?

Go to sleep little baby
And shut your mouth
It will soon be over
Gonna work things on out
Out...

Can you say a good word about us?
Can you say a good thing, good thing?
Can you say a good word about us?
Can you say a good good good good thing?

Ooh, ooh, ooh

Can you say a good word about us?
Can you say a good thing, good thing?
Can you say a good word about us?
Can you say a good good good good thing?

Here she comes
My pale bride
Makes it so that i don't try anyomore
All dressed in white
Sad to see that i don't care anymore

Don't care anymore
I don't care anymore
Don't care anymore
I don't

She's so kind
And on my mind
Fantasy that i can't fake anymore
A lulaby
Makes me wanna spend more time with you

Don't care anymore
I don't care anymore
Don't care anymore
I don't

And she dies
And she dies
And she dies
And she dies

Fall all alone
And on the pain
Pay no mind that i don't care anymore
And on your way
Take you time to read what's on the wall

Don't care anymore
I don't care anymore
Don't care anymore
I don't

And she dies
And she dies
And she dies
And she dies

ride for me
just don't hold me
blood depends
--? of me

won't you stay
a little longer
you find pain in most my pleasure

whoa only to haunt you
whoa only to haunt you
whoa only to haunt you
it's true, it's you

she's not honest
the maddest one
makes her kill
when she needs to run
she don't mean it
she's good for the start
begged and grieved
when i break her heart

whoa only to haunt you
whoa only to haunt you
whoa only to haunt you
it's true, it's you

only to haunt you

kill for me
just adore me
revel in these words that sow me
the night dressed in silence
silence fills these thoughts with violence

whoa, only to haunt you
whoa, only to haunt you
whoa, only to haunt you
whoa, only to haunt you

whoa, only to haunt you
whoa, only to haunt you
whoa, only to haunt you
it's true, it's you

she's the baddest one
only to haunt you
baddest one
only to haunt you
baddest one
only to haunt you
you, it's true

only to haunt you

So, wait
Drink more wine
Do all the things
I'm feeling fine

Can't stay awake so you say goodnight
So long career
So long dear life

Never gonna live to see your 21st birthday
Never gonna have to see your pretty face again

And so it's back to the game
Its always more of the same
You never see it will be better my way

I can't take this no more
She's always facing the floor
There's nothing worse than an unhappy soulmate

Never gonna live to see your 21st birthday
Never gonna have to see your pretty face again

Twenty years old and I feel alone
With lies, trust burned away
No fun in living
Just die, yeah

So go
I'll feel better
You came to pay
I'll see that door
Closing another day

So, wait
Drink more wine
Do all the things
I'm feeling fine

Can't stay awake so you say goodnight
So long career
So long dear life

Never gonna live to see your 21st birthday
Never gonna have to see your pretty face again

Never gonna have to see your pretty face again...

You been talking all this shit
You been talking all this shit
I think its time for you to quit
So sing out

You're not the apple of my eye
You're not the apple of my eye
You are the one that I despise
So sing it

You been talking all this shit
And now its time for you to quit
You're not the apple of my eye
You are the one that I despise
So sing it

What you need is to take a chance
Dancing days a whole thing of the past
Mix it up and make a go
Just to let her know
This is her night
So let it show

And if you're feeling wounded
Don't waste your time, oh right away
Falling down isn't bad for a go
Just to let her know

Hey now, hey now
Take it to the other side
You don't look so cool
But you look so alive
So alive, so alive
Hey now, hey now
Take it to the other side
You don't look so cool
But you look so alive
So alive, so alive

What you need is to take a chance
Dancing days a whole thing of the past
Mix it up and make a go
Just to let her know
This is her night
So let it show

And well if you're dead on the dancefloor
Can't keep moving anymore
Just sing it loud and we'll all sing your pain
We all feel the same

Hey now, hey now
Take it to the other side
You don't look so cool
But you look so alive
So alive, so alive
Hey now, hey now
Take it to the other side
You don't look so cool
But you look so alive
So alive, so alive

First thing I do:
Start a revolution
Built around me and you

Who are we to know the game
To freedom?
Dead to say, built between them
Kept aghast
Kept aghast

Well who can blame him for trying?
Oh, oh
I have to keep him from lying
Oh, oh
Hey

The next thing I do
Is stop watching the clocks
Cos everyone knows that time is fleeting
Open your ears and hear the pleading

Echoes of voices, fighting for years
Ringing with hatred, growing each fear
Dead to say, don't turn my way...

Well who can blame him for trying?
Oh, oh
I have to keep him from lying
Oh, oh
Hey
Well who can blame him for trying?
Oh, oh
I have to keep him from lying
Oh, oh
Hey

Last thing I do
Is tear away these scars
Paranoid, bleeding as bright as the night
Dancing with pain, with pain, with pain

Well who can blame him for trying?
Oh, oh
I have to keep him from lying
Oh, oh
Hey
Well who can blame him for trying?
Oh, oh
I have to keep him from lying
Oh, oh
Hey, hey, hey

With her head in the clouds now
She's sad over nothing
I said, 'girl you're delicious'
In a bar, now

I don't wanna be this way anymore
I don't wanna be this way anymore

I have bad inhibitions
On the floor, now
I swear this is serious
Make you smile, now

I don't wanna be this way anymore
I don't wanna be this way anymore

She's on the outside
Pay no attention
Show me your wild side
Good stimulation
Take me for part time
High on your hear say
Fighting for my sake
Ah, ah, woo!

I don't wanna be this way anymore

I said 'find me an innocent'
So many questions
Tell me I just need
A fair intervention
She's in a (?)
More of a headway
Make me a marked man
Ah, ah

I don't wanna be this way
I don't wanna be this way
I don't wanna be this way anymore

She set herself on fire
I was burned from head to toe
Please don't tell anybody
I can't bear them to know

She says it's all for show
Makes me crazy, I don't really wanna know
I'm a bleeding heart
There's no doubt about it

Oh no, oh no
I've done it again
Oh no, oh no
She's phoned up her friend
Oh no, oh no
She's not stopping
Cos there's no stopping
Till the tears stop dropping again

There's an accident I know
I lost all self control
Can anybody hear me?
Anybody save my soul?

Its far too dead outside
To go on living a lie
I just don't need that back anymore
That strips you from the inside

She says its all for show
Shakes her mess and brings it down the floor
She's got a big black heart
There's no doubt about it

Oh no, oh no
I've done it again
Oh no, oh no
She's phoned up her friend
Oh no, oh no
She's not stopping
Cos there's no stopping
Till the tears stop dropping again

Oh no, oh no
She's done it again
Oh no, oh no
She's phoned up her friends
Oh no, oh no
She's not stopping
Cos there's no stopping
Till the tears stop dropping again

No stopping, there's no stopping
There's just no stopping
There's no stopping
Till the tears stop dropping again

Turn to nights
Ripping my life away
Whats in store?
Take my hand
Close that door
Tearing my heart away
Evermore

Turn the nights
Say goodbye

Take my hand
Say goodnight
Take the days
Evermore...
