Ride The Storm
Jesus Christ was on the line
He said you ain’t no friend but give me some time
Turn your blood into wine
I heard your girlfriend bangs the drums
Lewis Carroll said she’s one of a kind
Give me some time…
To ride the storm
And keep your body warm
You said you loved no one
You take no shelter from
When the doctor comes to stay
He’ll get me through another day like today
The methadone change
I heard you scream into the light
But no one told you that the dead were insane
You cry for the pain…
And ride the storm
To keep your body warm
You said you loved no one
You take no shelter from…
So let’s leave tonight
Under this crystal light
And you can find someone
To take no shelter from…
Ride the storm
And keep your body warm
You said you loved no one
You take no shelter from…
Black Dog Commercial
I know a girl
Her name is Mary Anne
She don’t know nothing but the black hand of Jesus
And I know a man
I hope you understand
You don’t need nothing when you keep up the treatment
Yeah you seem so alternative
I’m gonna tear your heart right out…
A little black dog
Just walking in the woods
A painful reminder of the sea that lays inside her
And the dying sun
That falls on everyone
Is there for the taking, although your heart is breaking
Yeah you seem so alternative
I’m gonna tear your heart right out…
This live commercial has got no soul
And there is no one you could know,
There’s no one here that you could know
We’re painting pictures on your soul
We’re painting pictures on your soul
We’re painting pictures on your soul
I know a sin
She got me in a spin
But now that it’s over, I’m feeling so much colder
I’m on my back
I’m sliding through the cracks
A black dog is shining and I’m hiding in the lightning
Yeah you seem so alternative
I’m gonna tear your heart right out…
This live commercial has got no soul
And there is no one you could know,
There’s no one here that you could know
We’re painting pictures on your soul
We’re painting pictures on your soul
We’re painting pictures on your soul
The Devils
Sirens call your name
Losing all your dice in some supernatural game
While the sailors keep getting seasick, all the while
Now you’re dancing with the stars
You burned our all your credit in a thousand late night bars
While you’re wasting, in a dead world, out of time
And no one seems to understand
You got lost inside a room, it’s all it takes to break a man
It’s oh so easy to pretend
The night is just a theatre but it’s coming to an end, it’s coming to an end…
Oh baby…
Don’t let go and don’t blow your soul
Because it’s all about the devil you know
You can wrap yourself up if you’re cold
Because it’s all about the devil, it’s all about the devil, it’s all about the devil, it’s all about the devil you know…
Now the wolves are closing in
You know you’re not quite Sylvia because your words are wearing thin
And you’re spinning, in the whirlwind, of your mind…
And no one seems to understand
You got lost inside a room, it’s all it takes to break a man
It’s oh so easy to pretend
The night is just a theatre but it’s coming to an end, it’s coming to an end…
Oh baby…
Don’t let go and don’t blow your soul
Because it’s all about the devil you know
You can wrap yourself up if you’re cold
Because it’s all about the devil, it’s all about the devil, it’s all about the devil, it’s all about the devil you know…
Sweet Surrender
There’s a cigarette burn on your arm
No one said they would do you no harm
Your religion doesn’t save any souls
And that’s what they call rock’n’roll
Oh yeah…
Tonight my head is on fire
I’m gonna take it down to the wire
You got no real excuse
It’s all about the people you lose
There’s one thing I do know for sure,
I don’t believe in ghosts any more
Sweet Surrender is gone
She lost herself in her song
And Sweet Surrender is high
She’s dancing into the fire
She’s dancing into the fire
So maybe I’ll just leave you alone
But God knows it hurts in my bones
You got no reason to choose
And God knows they torture the blues
There’s one thing I do know for sure,
I don’t believe in ghosts any more
Sweet Surrender is gone
She lost herself in her song
And Sweet Surrender is high
She’s dancing into the fire
She’s dancing into the fire
Sweet Surrender is gone
She lost herself in her song
And Sweet Surrender is high
She’s dancing into the fire
She’s dancing into the fire
All That You Did
I could see the city and the flowers of sin
I was telling you something but you keep it all in
Just another lonely scratch back kick
You’re always saying something but it’s making me sick
Raven black hair and electric blue eyes
Trouble deaf heaven with your heroine cries
You act just like Marie Antoinette
Losing all your hours and you’re losing your head…
Can you hear the angels fly from your soul?
And they sing…
All that you did
Was to cheat on a friend
And all that you sang
Were lies in the end...
You said saints don’t sleep
But you don’t understand
Because all that you were
Was a line in the sand, a line in the sand, a line in the sand…
Did you get enough attention on the telephone line
Take your vanity out to dine?
Every rich man’s narcissist
Dancing out of time with a darkening kiss
Can you hear the angels fly from your soul?
And they sing…
All that you did
Was to cheat on a friend
And all that you sang
Were lies in the end...
You said saints don’t sleep
But you don’t understand
Because all that you were
Was a line in the sand, a line in the sand, a line in the sand
Oh Yeah…
I could see the city and the flowers of sin
Jupiter’s Son
Staring at the rain, falling through the window pane
And everything’s the same
Don’t it sometimes seem that way
The thunder never came, the wind won’t blow the scars away
And everything is pain
I wonder what De Sade would say…
When the birds of prey have flown
Yeah there’s something you should know…
Yeah you’re Jupiter’s Son
Turn the radio on
Like some prodigal son
They said you were the lightning one
Yeah you’re Jupiter’s Son
Turn the radio on
Like some prodigal son
They said you were the lightning one
Oh…
Yeah you’re Jupiter’s Son…
Will I see those eyes again, flying in their crimson pain
The naked and the vain
A thousand ways to fly your plane
And everything’s the same
Although you never take the blame
Lost inside your game
Call for Mary Magdalene
When the churches are all closed
Yeah there’s something you should know…
Yeah you’re Jupiter’s Son
Turn the radio on
Like some prodigal son
They said you were the lightning one
Yeah you’re Jupiter’s Son
Turn the radio on
Like some prodigal son
They said you were the lightning one
Oh…
Yeah you’re Jupiter’s Son…
Predicting A Fall
Your lover's got the tracks, and an itch you just can’t scratch
But it don’t mean nothing at all
Killer in uniform Lady Lazarus is born
But it don’t mean nothing at all
Inside the devastation
Of late night conversation
I think I’m predicting a fall
With all your accusations
The same old situation
I think I’m predicting a fall
Oh yeah
Can you kill the light inside of me?
I feel it
Can you kill the light inside of me?
I feel it
Can you kill the light inside of me?
I feel it
Can you kill the light inside of me?
Yeah
Slither across the floor, slide outside the door
But it don’t mean nothing at all
Kill your pretty boys inside this static noise
But it don’t mean nothing at all
Inside the devastation
Of late night conversation
I think I’m predicting a fall
With all your accusations
The same old situation
I think I’m predicting a fall
Oh yeah
Can you kill the light inside of me?
I feel it
Can you kill the light inside of me?
I feel it
Can you kill the light inside of me?
I feel it
Can you kill the light inside of me?
Burn It Down
Well I’ve been taking time today
To see these things in many ways
But no one wants to see you any more
You’re a hopeless case in any case
Butterflies in vacant space
Fall and break and burn unto the floor
But I still think there’s time to say
We’ve seen this thing in many ways
And it’s alright
It’s alright man it’s on fire
We’ve got to burn it down to get much higher
Yeah…
He’s always there she’s always late
Try and unwrap a ball of hate
No one does the dishes any more
Waiting for the atom bomb
Lost inside a lonely song
No one seems to hang outside your door
But I still think there’s time to say
We’ve seen this thing in many ways
And it’s alright
It’s alright man it’s on fire
We’ve got to burn it down to get much higher
Yeah it’s alright man it’s on fire
We’ve got to burn it down to get much higher
Yeah it’s alright man it’s on fire
We’ve got to burn it down to get much higher
Yeah it’s alright man it’s on fire
We’ve got to burn it down to get much higher
Yeah it’s alright man it’s on fire
We’ve got to burn it down to get much higher
Yeah it’s alright man it’s on fire
We’ve got to burn it down to get much higher
Yeah it’s alright man it’s on fire
We’ve got to burn it down to get much higher
Yeah it’s alright man it’s on fire
We’ve got to burn it down…
The Blood of Others
Wake up we're driving tonight
Dancing out to the light
Pop that pill in your mouth
I guess that your mind’s headed south
Because we don’t drop gold for the soul
You run with the wolfpack you know
Who wrote that prayer in your head?
Forget that you might end up dead
Will I be there when you come down?
Mon cheri, I’m always round
Wake me where the sun goes down
Will I be there when you come down?
Mon cheri, I’m always round
You’ve got no reason to cry
The saints just waved you goodbye
You’ve got no reason to cry, they just waved you goodbye
The blood of others is fine, the blood of others is fine
You’ve got no reason to cry, they just waved you goodbye
The blood of others is fine, the blood of others is fine
There’s a marriage of reason and hell
Your planet still feels like a cell
Where no one remembers your name
They’re all so glad that you came
Will I be there when you come down?
Mon cheri, I’m always round
Wake me where the sun goes down
Will I be there when you come down?
Mon cheri, I’m always round
You’ve got no reason to cry
The saints just waved you goodbye
You’ve got no reason to cry, they just waved you goodbye
The blood of others is fine, the blood of others is fine
You’ve got no reason to cry, they just waved you goodbye
The blood of others is fine, the blood of others is fine
You’ve got no reason to cry
The blood of others is fine, the blood of others is fine
You’ve got no reason to cry
The blood of others is fine, the blood of others is fine
The blood of others is fine, the blood of others is fine
JoJo & The Lions
Your wolves are French and your mind is blue
But I’d rather sped my time with you
Than stay, another day
In oblivion’s arms in Ladbroke Grove
With silver foil for a secret show
You gave my soul away
Which is just another way for me to say
It’s just another way for me to say
Won’t JoJo & The Lions come out to play?
Won’t JoJo & The Lions come out to play?
Won’t JoJo & The Lions come out to play?
Won’t JoJo & The Lions come out to play?
Won’t JoJo & The Lions, JoJo & The Lions come out to play?
So follow me down and pimp my ride
Because I’m taking on the world outside today
And that’s okay
Because when our bones are dead and gone
We’ll burn into a thousand suns
And chase, the dark away
Which is just another way for me to say
It’s just another way for me to say
Won’t JoJo & The Lions come out to play?
Won’t JoJo & The Lions come out to play?
Won’t JoJo & The Lions come out to play?
Won’t JoJo & The Lions come out to play?
Won’t JoJo & The Lions, JoJo & The Lions come out to play?
Because when our bones are dead and gone
We’ll burn into a thousand suns
And chase, the dark away
When JoJo & The Lions come out to play…
Calling All Wolves (Drawing Down The Moon)
La femme aristocracy was calling all over me
And I don’t believe they will let me go
You say you don’t need any one
But hey baby it’s no fun
And I don’t believe you’ve ever known
No I don’t believe you’ve ever known
Yeah I’m calling all the wolves tonight
Drawing down the moon tonight
Howling a bad education can be good for the soul
You’ve got to kick back and let the good times roll
The art of seduction and the rules of the road
You’ve got to kick back and let the good times roll
Kick back and let the good times roll…
I left my head at Charles De Gaulle
And I really thought I had seen it all
But I don’t believe you could let me pass
And nothing seems to help you see
So I take it all so vacantly
And turn my eyes till nothing lasts
I turn my eyes till nothing lasts
Yeah I’m calling all the wolves tonight
Drawing down the moon tonight
Howling a bad education can be good for the soul
You’ve got to kick back and let the good times roll
The art of seduction and the rules of the road
You’ve got to kick back and let the good times roll
Kick back and let the good times roll…
With a feather light upon her thigh
I place a kiss upon a rose
And the blood moon cries for passion
Two such angels in repose
Yet upon my dancing soul
The devil takes his flight
And out bodies writhe like cat-snakes
In the warmth of endless night
With lips as red and sensual
As new dawn in nature’s sight
I burn forever brightly
In her patient and slow light
Oh yeah
Yeah I’m calling all the wolves tonight
Drawing down the moon tonight
Oh Yeah
