Machine & Soul
(Single from 'Machine & Soul' album, 1992)
She likes film
Pictures too
A friend of mine
Something new
She like girls
Lives my dreams
Eats my face
She says 'Time to make me scream'
No crying
She don't like tears
My one chance
Is corruption
She likes pain
'E' please, Bob
Some heroes
But she don't like God
She likes rock
MTV
Sex machines
She says 'Time to make me bleed'
No romance
No surprise
My one chance
Is perversion
So this is
My secret
And this is
A new way to hide
So this is
My nightmare
And you're my
Solution
No memories
Nostalgia
My one chance
Is slow motion
So this is
The big lie
So this is
My reason to leave
So this is
My future
And you're my
Corruption
She likes speed
Low fast cars
Love and hate
Rock and roll stars
She likes cream
Long goodbyes
Someone to watch
She says 'Time to make me cry'
I'm nervous
She scares me
My one chance
Is emotion
So this is
Religion
So this is
Something to believe
So this is
God's disease
So this is
A new kind of cure
So this is
A new world
And you're my
Machine and soul
1999
I was dreamin' when I wrote this
Forgive me if it goes astray
But when I woke up this mornin'
Coulda sworn it was judgment day
The sky was all purple
there were people runnin' everywhere
Tryin' 2 run from the destruction
U know I didn't even care
'Cuz they say two thousand zero zero party over
oops out of time
So tonight I'm gonna party like it's 1999
I was dreamin' when I wrote this
So sue me if I go 2 fast
But life is just a party, and parties weren't meant 2 last
War is all around us, my mind says prepare 2 fight
So if I gotta die I'm gonna listen 2 my body tonight
Yeah, they say two thousand zero zero party over
oops out of time
So tonight I'm gonna party like it's 1999
Lemme tell ya somethin'
If U didn't come 2 party
don't bother knockin' on my door
I got a lion in my pocket
and baby he's ready 2 roar grrrraaaarrrrr
Yeah, everybody's got a bomb
we could all die any day
But before I'll let that happen
I'll dance my life away
Oh, they say two thousand zero zero party over
oops out of time
We're runnin' outta time
So tonight we gonna party like it's 1999
Say it 1 more time
Two thousand zero zero party over oops
out of time
So tonight we gonna
Alright, it's 1999
You say it, 1999
1999
1999 don't stop, don't stop, say it 1 more time
Two thousand zero zero party over
oops out of time
So tonight we gonna
party like it's 1999
we gonna, oww
Yeah, 1999
Don'tcha wanna go
Don'tcha wanna go
We could all die any day
I don't wanna die
I'd rather dance my life away
Listen 2 what I'm tryin' 2 say
Everybody, everybody say party
C'mon now, U say party
That's right, everybody say
Can't run from the revelation, no
Sing it 4 your nation y'all
Tell me what you're singin', baby say
Telephone's a-ringin', mama
Everybody
Work it down 2 the ground, say
Come on, take my body, baby
That's right, c'mon, sing the song
(Party)
That's right
Got a lion in my pocket mama grr, say
Oh--and he's ready 2 roar
The Hauntings
(B-side, 'Machine and Soul 2' single, 1992)
