Aphrodesia

She's got me around her finger
I know i should quit but I linger
Hoping that maybe she'll come and save me
From my obsession
Starry eyed girl do you know what you do to me?
I wake from your kisses but you're not there next to me
Where do we start has it even begun?
Or is it me, am I coming on too strong?
Aphrodesia
(chorus)
Aphrodesia
All I wanna do is please her
But something won't let me get near her
It's like a diamond edged fever
Well you've got the ticket
And I've got the train
So why's love waiting at the station
In the pouring rain?
We've got this thing
But no idea how to break it in
Aphrodesia
(chorus)
Looking for Strange I find something else
The smell of her hair let's drink to our health
Maybe I'll see her turning a corner
Will somebody tell her yeah somebody warn her
I've got it bad
I've got it bad
I want her boyfriend's head
On a silver plate
Aphrodesia

Dirty Hair

Dirty Hair on my pillow
Gotta wash it clean before tomorrow
Dirty Hair that touched your shoulder
Less than 24 hours and it was over
Oh yeah
In your car you drive it fast now
Gotta suck it up cause it won't last now
I got an itch I need to scratch
Against my box light your match
(chorus)
Salt lingers on the air and on my tongue
Morning had come and we'd just begun
Breathing your breath was the hardest part
Not walking away
Dirty girl fix your mask now
No one will know if they don't ask now
You and me we've got this secret
The blood has flowed so the moon won't leak it
(chorus)
Dirty Hair on my pillow
Gotta wash it clean before tomorrow
After all it was just a man who'd been there
It's not as if I haven't sinned yeah
Wash it away

Island Orchid
04:20

Come on over for a piece of me I taste like honey that's a little spicy
Is that your natural colour are you a doll
Let me put my fingers deep into your skull
Make me yours make me true purify me by the heat in you
By the heat in you
Mercury my tongue is tied loosen these chains to the world outside
Let me listen to the music here
It ripples undulates around my sphere
When I remember his thorny thigh all those phantom muscles start to groan and sigh we made magic underneath the moon all the gods were watching and humming this tune
Oooh
Hanging from the Tree of Life like fruit that's tender firm and ripe
All this blood rushing to my head
Is cooking up dreams better left unsaid
I'm wanting you to answer me
From out there from in here
On a desert island an orchid blooms
With no one to inhale it or admire its hue
Does it have a purpose in spite of itself
It lives on as it must not as something
Not as something else
Freedom blows upon the wind
Feel the kite pulling from my hand
The day's descending and this song is ending
And I must go now and make my bed

Royal Jelly

Give me Royal Jelly
Give me Royal Jelly
I want to be the Queen Bee
Living in the hive
Living to thrive
I'll make baby bees all day
So give me Royal Jelly
I'll turn into a monster
And have my minions
Sting your baby's toes
Honey sweet honey
It's out secret alchemy
A recipe that humans cannot steal
How do you think it feels
To fuck a flower?
Well my girls do it
On the hour
By the hour
On the hour
By the hour
Do a little dance
Do a little dance for me
Do a little dance
Do a little dance honeybee
And give me Royal Jelly
Give me Royal Jelly
I want to be
I want to be
I want to be
The Queen!

Lover's War
04:58

The Master is looking for
Candidates in his Lover's War
So many people ready and willing
To give their all to breeding and killing
Lover's War
What is the criteria?
Where do I sign?
Cross my heart on the dotted line
(chorus)
Lover's War
Always keeping score
What do we do this for?
In our Lover's War
Out of range too close to strike
But my heart it bleeds through the sheets of our bed
In the middle of the night
Where is the virtue in being saved
By somebody drowning in their own malaise?
(chorus)
I look over yonder
And what do I see?
A garden of thorns
And the Sleeping Beauty
Oh Prince Charming
Please don't harm me
I don't want to lose you
But I may bruise you
So use my body
To plunge your sword
Impale me hard and I might just
Keep my word
Yes I might just keep my word in our
(chorus)

Tidal
04:24
|
|||
|
The summer was fading
Planets were aligning
Staying on the east beach
Waiting for the tidal wave to come
(chorus)
Pulling me under
Pulling me under
Drifting so far away
I didn't know if it was night or day
Urchin shell
Sea swell
My love won't wait for me
Foolish notions
Drowning in emotions
And I'm shocking all my fears at once
(chorus)
Sometimes I return to
That place where I was born
The trauma and the terror
Make me realise it all
(chorus)

Black Lace Blues

Got the Black Lace Blues
Cause I've been thinking of you
You've been gone so long
So here I am singing this yearning song
I remember a time
Down by the river
How we drank the wine
Oh how you made me quiver
(chorus)
Oh Black Lace
I'm a disgrace
I'd better fix my face
But I just can't seem to erase you yeah
But now you're gone
I'm all alone
Do you still think of me
When you watch the sunset
And drink your coffee?
(chorus)
This night it feels
Like forever yeah
What will I learn about myself
Now that we're over?
So I'm gonna leave my black lace
For someone new
Gonna let you fade away
Into the past
Into the past
Into the past
Into the Blue
