Alice pressed against the wall (live version is 'She stands pressed...')
So she can see the door
In case the laughing strangers crawl and
Crush the petals on the floor
Alice in her party dress
She thanks you kindly
So serene
She needs you like she needs her tranqs
To tell her that the world is clean
To promise her a definition
Tell her where the rain will fall
Tell her where the sun shines bright
And tell her she can have it all
Today
Pass the crystal spread the Tarot
In illusion comfort lies
The safest way the straight and narrow
No confusion no surprise
Alice in her party dressed to kill
She the thanks you turns away
She needs you like she needs needs her pills
To tell that the world's okay
To promise her a definition
Tell her where the rain will fall
Tell her where the sun shines bright
And tell her she can have it all
today
today
Alice
Don't give it way
The bodies on the naked on the low damp ground
In the violet hour to the violent sound
And the darkness the blinding the eyes that shine
And the voices and the singing and the line on line
This is the floorshow the clapping hands
Animal flow from the animal glands
In the violet hour to the violent sound
Going round and around and around and around and around
I feel the bite I feel the beat I see the dancing feet
I feel the light I feel the heat I see the new elite
I see the final floorshow I see the western dream
I see the faces glow and I see the bodies steam
See them shimmy see them go
See their painted faces glow
Slow slow quick quick slow
See those pagans go go go go go
This is the floorshow the last ideal
It's populist got mass appeal
The old religeon redifined
For the facile futile totally blind
Mundane by day inane by night
Pagan playing in the flashing light
In the violet hour to the violent sound
Going round and around and around and around and around
And the bodies naked on the low damp ground
In the violet hour to the violet sound
And the darkness the blinding the eyes that shine
And the voices singing line on line
See them shimmy see them go
See their painted faces glow
Slow slow quick quick slow
See those pagans go go go go go
(Instrumental)
Well allright!
Well it's 1969 okay.
We've got a war across the USA.
There's nothing here for me and you.
We're just sitting here with nothing to do.
Well there's nothing here for me and you.
Another year with nothing to do.
Now last year I was 21,
I didn't have a lot of fun.
Now I'm gonna be 22,
So it's oh my,I'll boo hoo.
Well now I'm gonna be 22, so
Oh my,I'll boo hoo.
no!
Well it's 1969 okay,
Got a war across the USA.
There's nothing here for me and you.
Just sitting here,with nothing to do.
Well it's 1969 baby.
Well it's 1969 baby.
Well it's nine,
Nine, (x17)

She got red eyes
She wear dust
I went over over over
I went bust
I kissed I kissed the carpet
I climbed the curtain
I was certain
And I said yeah
Yeah
She got red eyes
She wear dust
I went over over over
I went bust
I kissed I kissed the carpet
I climbed the curtain
I was certain
But I said
Next Time I look before I
Next time the carpet
Next time I look before I
Kiss the carpet should I
Kiss
Kiss
Kiss
The lights shine clear through the sodium haze
The night draws near and daylight fades
Ignore the voices discard the day
For the brand new darkness for the bright new way
Hit
Well there have been better plans
But none that I could ever understand
Emerald signal the green on black
The lights say move say never look back
And so I find a place where I've never been seen
Find another place where the red turns green
Where the emerald glistens through the darkness again
Where the emerald glistens through the rain
The lights shine clear through the sodium haze
The night draws near and the daylight fades
But there's a voice in the distance quiet and clear
Saying something that I never ever wanted to hear
Wellt there have been better plans
But none that I could ever understand
I see the emerald signal see the green on black
I see the light say move say never look back
And so I find another place where I'll never been seen
Find another place where the red turns green
Where the emerald glistens through the darkness again
Where the emerald glistens through the rain rain rain
And I'm happy here
In the rain
In the rain
In the rain rain rain I'm happy here
In the rain
Where the emerald
Glistens
Through the rain
The razor bites and the shriek subsides
He arches clutching at his sides
Across the floor across the tiles
The man is dead and the razor smiles
A shiny love song a quick incision
Cut him down on television
A people come to this
Beyond the age of reason
A people fed on famine
A people on their knees and
People eat each other
A people stand in line
Waiting for another war and
Waiting for my valentine
For a million empty faces
For a million hollow smiles
Cancer for my education
Watch the body hit the files
Waiting for another war and
Waiting for my valentine
Love for the party love for the nation
Love for the fix for the fabrication
love for the corpse for the corporation
love for the death and for the defecation
Romance and assassiniaton
Give me the love of genocide
Give me love
Burn me a fire in the reptile house
In the colour and the carnage fall me down
My face in the fire in the reptile house
And the kissing and the colour come crashing down
<backwards bit>
In the fire in the reptile house
In the colour and carnage fall me down
My face in the fire in the reptile house
kissing and the colour come crashing down
Dtheown down down
Down around me
Down down down
Down around
Face in the fire on the reptile house
In the colour and the carnage fall me down
My face in the fire in the reptile house
And the kissing and the colour come crashing down
Down down down
Down around me
Down down down
Around
My Face in the fire my faith in the fire
In the
In the burn me down my
My burning down
In the fire in the reptile house
In the colour and the carnage fall me down
My face in the fire in the reptile house
And the kissing and the colour come crashing
Down
Crashing down
(Instrumental)
With the fire from the fireworks up above me
With a gun for a lover and a shot for the pain at hand
You un for cover in the temple of love
You run for another but still the same
For the wind will blow my name across this land
In the temple of love you hide together
Believing pain and fear outside
But someone near you rides the weather
And the tears he cried will rain on walls
As wide as lovers eyes
Chorus:
In the temple of love: shine like thunder
In the temple of love: cry like rain
In the temple of love: Hear my calling
In the temple of love: hear my name
And the devil in black dress watches over
My guardian angel walks away
Life is short and love is always over in the morning
Black wind come carry me far away
With the sunlight died and night above me
With a gun for a lover and a shot for the pain inside
You run for cover in the temple of love
You run for another it's all the same
For the wind will blow and throw your walls aside
With the fire from the fireworks up above
With a gun for a lover and a shot for the pain<
Chorus 2:
You run for cover in the temple of love
I shine like thunder cry like rain
And the temple grows old and strong
But the wind blows longer cold and long
And the temple of love will fall before
This black wind calls my name to you no more
In the black sky thunder sweeping
Underground and over water
Sounds of crying weeping will not save
Your faith for bricks and dreams for mortar
All your prayers must seem as nothing
Ninety-six below the wave
When stone is dust and only air remains
Chorus 3:
In the temple of love: Shine like thunder
In the temple of love: Cry like rain
In the temple of love: Hear the calling
And the temple of love is falling
Down

Lay me down the long white line
Leave the sirens far behind me
Paint my name in black and gold
My heart my flame my heart my road
My heartland fade across the line
Heartland sing the faces shining
In the failing failing failing
Heartland make the places mine
Clearly now the past mistakes
The giant steps we had to take
The path that ever promise made to
Die in dream dissolve and fade
Chorus:
My heartland heartland heartland(x3)
Behind the lines a face that glimmers
Still looking for a face that shines
In the promise in the places
I'm going to make them mine
(chorus) (x40)
oh, see the storm is threatening
my very life today
if i don't get some shelter
yeah, i'm gonna fade away
war, children
it's just a kiss away
it's just a kiss away
(repeat)
yeah
oh, see the fire is sweeping
down through the streets today
burning like a bright red carpet
another fool who lost the way
rape, murder
it's just a kiss away
it's just a kiss away
(repeat)
yeah
(repeat verse 1)
love, sisters
it's just a shot away
it's just a shot away
love, sisters
it's just a shot away
shot away
shot away
war, children
it's just a kiss away
it's just a kiss awy
war, children
it's just a kiss away
kiss away
kiss away
rape murder
it's just a kiss away
it's just a kiss away
rape, murder
it's just a kiss away
kiss away
kiss away
(repeat previous three 2x)
(repeat love chorus)
war, children
it's just a kiss away
kiss away
kiss away
Somebody tell me about the rhythm of the 4th floor
Somebody tell me about the rhythm of the dance floor
Somebody tell me about the perfect bomb
The royal valley on a blitzkrieg bomb
Somebody tell me how to use my gun tools
Kiss the napalm in the afternoon
I saw the film, I saw the place
I live to work for the killing sake
When I think you're knocked, when the radio died
And the rhythm play from every side
See the rebel and the damage done
See the debris and the damage done
See the wreckage and the damage done
See the film, see the damage done
Somebody tell me about the rhythm of the 4th floor
(This is the image, this is the place)
Somebody tell me about the rhythm of the dance floor
(This is the way the world will end)
Somebody tell me about the
(The waltzing man have dancing eyes)
I need to know about the
(This is the way the world will end)
Me I'm lost and the radio's dead
Now I'm relaxed and the radio's dead
The rhythm's gone, the radio's dead
And the damage done inside my radio
Live long and prosper
here's the story
no time to lose(like the present)
now i've lost my friends
now i've lost friends
it's not my party,
never will be
feeling out-of-place,
i'm not happy
a touch of the storm cloud...
roughage in a comradeship and conversations
conversations, everything's so run-of-the-mill
we stand still...
and time slips back,
and time slips back...
back to the garden,
time slips back
back in the dark rooms
time slips back
back in the dark room
back to the dark age
put me on the rack
we stand still
time slips back
recount movements
recount movements
watch us grow
watch us fall from grace
watch us fall flat on our face
but you always fall on your feet
tell me how you always
fall on your feet
tell me how
tell me how
tell me how
oh tell me how
the sun shines on the aluminium
I guess this must be the home of the hitmen
Through the cables and the underground
The faceless breathless calls
This Babel, sensurround
This place is death with walls(X4)
Too much contact, no more feeling
The Sound around them all
Acid on the floor so she walk on the ceiling
And the body electric flashes on the bathroom wall(X2)
Crawling to the corners where the idiot children call
See the body flashing on the bathroom wall
(repeat)
We'll turn away in a passive decision
We'll take the steps through the unmarked door
A look back for another collision
But the boys of the spires
Are boys no more
Not black and red boys
Frightened by the night
By the Catholic monochrome
The Catholic girls now
Stark in their dark and white
Dread in monochrome
the Sisters of Mercy
High tide
Wide eyed
Sped on adrenochrome
For the Sisters of Mercy
Filled with
Panic in their eyes
Rise
Dead on adrenochrome
We had the power
We had the space
We had a sense of time and place
We knew the words
We knew the score
We knew what we were fighting for
For the freedom
The time to choose
But time to think
Is time to lose
The signals clash
And disappear
The shade too loud
And the sound unclear
For the
High tide
Wide eyed
Dread in monochrome
Denied in spite
Disliked in monochrome
Panic in their eyes
Rise
Dead and monochrome
the Sisters of Mercy
Spite
On adrenochrome
the way is clear
The road is closed
the damage done
and the course
imposed you
(repeat 1 & 2)
Baby buy an Anaconda baby buy a thing to wear
She go walking she go crawling she go sliding through the air
She go talking warm and fashion she go talking debonair
But see her face turn to a mask and passion turn to she don't care<
Chorus:
She will she will she will she will let it take her breath away
She will she will she will she will let it take her life away
Let it wrap itself around her till it kill her in it's way
She will she will she will she will blow away
Baby hit the rush hour traffic get a ride to anywhere
Baby buy the number three she pay the man she pay the fare
Baby hit the wild blue yonder on the mainline on the side
Steal to feed the Anaconda will not see the suicide
(chorus)
Baby finger on the trigger baby shot formaldehyde
Turn into a marble figure turn the matter dead inside
Turn into a China doll maybe go to the final ride
Baby go where I don't follow baby to the other side
(chorus)
