TASTE IN MEN Traduction

Come back to me a while
Change your style again
Come back to me a while
Change your taste in men
It's been this way since Christmas day
Dazzled, doused in gin
Change your taste in men

Come back to me a while
Change your style again
Come back to me a while
Change your taste in men
I'm killing time on Valentine's
Waiting for the day to end
Change your taste in men

Come back to me a while
Change your style again
Come back to me a while
Change your taste in men
It's been this way since Christmas day
Dazzled, doused in gin
Change your taste in men

DAYS BEFORE YOU CAME Traduction

Days before you came
Freezing cold and empty
Towns that change their name
And a horn of plenty
Days before you came
Counting breaths inside me
Even crack - cocaine
Couldn't start to hide me

Won't you join me now, baby's looking torn and frayed
Join the masquerade, join the masquerade
Won't you join me now, baby's looking to get laid
Join the masquerade, join the masquerade

Days before you came
It always seemed enticing
To be naked and profane
There is no denying
Days before you came
Thunderbolt and lightening
Each day a brand new vein
Each torniquet colliding

Didn't want you anyway x 4

Won't you join me now, baby's looking torn and frayed
Join the masquerade, join the masquerade
Won't you join me now, baby's looking to get laid
Join the masquerade, join the masquerade

Days before you came x 3
Days before you
Days before you came
x 3
Days before you

Didn't want you anyway x 4

SPECIAL K Traduction

Coming up beyond belief
On this coronary thief
More than just a leitmotif
More chaotic, no relief
I'll describe the way I feel
Weeping wounds that never heal
Can this saviour be for real
Or are you just my seventh seal?

No hesitation, no delay
You come on just like Special K
Just like I swallowed half my stash
I never ever want to crash
No hesitation, no delay
You come on just like Special K
Now you're back with dope demand
I'm on sinking sand

Gravity, no escaping
Gravity
Gravity, no escaping
Not for free
I fall down, hit the ground
Make a heavy sound
Every time you seem to come around

I'll describe the way I feel
You're my new achille's heel
Can this saviour be for real
Or are you just my seventh seal?

No hesitation, no delay
You come on just like Special K
Just like I swallowed half my stash
I never ever want to crash
No hesitation, no delay
You come on just like Special K
Now you're back with dope demand
I'm on sinking sand

Gravity, no escaping
Gravity
Gravity, no escaping
Not for free
I fall down, hit the ground
Make a heavy sound
Every time you seem to come around

No escaping, gravity
Gravity

SPITE & MALICE Traduction

Revolution
Dope, guns, fucking in the streets
x 2

Aces take your time
Queens are left for dead
Jacks can stand in line
And touch themselves instead
Aces take your pity
And keep it warm in bed
Aces take your time

Cut the deck
The queens left for dead
Soft and wet scarf tied to the bed
Jack is all tragic when he stands alone
Feeling demonic harmonic
And in a no-go-zone
You look well suited
Like you came to win
Lust, spite and malice
Your degrees of sin
Cruisin for pity
And looking as pretty as fuck
Aces take your time
'Cause queen wish you luck

Aces take your time
Draw your final breath
Jacks are feeling fine
They've clubbed themselves to death
Aces take your pity
And sleep with it instead
Aces take your time

You can play your card
I'll hold on to mine
Tied up in the reasons
Aces take your time
Looks turn to lovers
Flames into fires
Jack loves his tragedy
Queen her desires
You look well suited
Like you came to win
Lust, spite and malice
Your degrees of sin
Wrap me in your trauma
And I might just give you mine
Queen take your chances
Aces take your time

Dope, guns, fucking in the streets
Revolution

Everything will blow tonight
Either friend or foe tonight

Cut the deck
The queens left for dead
Soft and wet scarf tied to the bed
Jack is all tragic when he stands alone
Feeling demonic harmonic
And in a no-go-zone
You look well suited
Like you came to win
Lust, spite and malice
Your degrees of sin
Cruisin for pity
And looking as pretty as fuck
Aces take your time
'Cause queen wish you luck

Dope, guns, fucking in the streets
Revolution

Everything will blow tonight
Either friend or foe tonight

PASSIVE AGRESSIVE Traduction

It's in your reach, concentrate x 2

If you deny this, than it's your fault
That God's in crisis, he's over

It's in your reach, concentrate x 2

If you deny this, than it's your fault
That God's in crisis, he's over

Everytime I rise I see you falling
Can you find me space inside your bleeding heart?
Everytime I rise I see you falling
Can you find me space, find me space?

It's in your reach, concentrate x 2

If you deny this, than it's your fault
That God's in crisis, he's over

Everytime I rise I see you falling
Can you find me space inside your bleeding heart?

Can you find me space inside your bleeding heart?
It falls apart

BLACK-EYED Traduction

I was never faithful and I was never one to trust
Borderlining schizo and guaranteed to cause a fuss
I was never loyal, except to my own pleasure zone
I'm forever black-eyed
A product of a broken home

I was never faithful and I was never one to trust
Borderline bipolar, forever biting on your nuts
I was never grateful, that's why I spent my days alone
I'm forever black-eyed
A product of a broken home
Broken home

Black-eyed x 8

I was never faithful and I was never one to trust
Borderlining schizo and guaranteed to cause a fuss
I was never loyal, except to my own pleasure zone
I'm forever black-eyed
A product of a broken home
Broken home

Black-eyed x 12
Broken home

BLUE AMERICAN Traduction

I wrote this novel just for you
It sound's pretentious
But it's true
I wrote this novel just for you
That's why it's vulgar
That's why it's blue

And I say thank you
I say thank you

I wrote this novel just for Mom
For all the mommy things she's done
For all the times she showed me wrong
For all the times she sang God's song

And I say thank you Mom
Hello Mom
Thank you Mom
Hi Mom

I read a book about uncle Tom
Where a whitey bastard made a bomb
But now ebonics rule our song
Those motherfuckers got it wrong

And I ask
Who is uncle Tom?
x 3
You are

I read a book about the self
Said I should get expensive help
Go fix my head, create some wealth
Put my neurosis on the shelf
But I don't care for myself
I don't care for myself
x 2
I don't care

I wrote this novel just for you
I'm so pretentious
Yes, it's true
I wrote this novel just for you
Just for you

SLAVE TO THE WAGE Traduction

Run away from all your boredom
Run away from all your whoredom
And wave your worries and cares goodbye
All it takes is one decision
A lot of guts, a little vision
To wave your worries and cares goodbye

It's a maze for rats to try x 2
It's a race, a race for rats, a race for rats to die
x 2

Sick and tired of Maggie's farm
She's a bitch with broken arms
And wave your worries and cares goodbye

It's a maze for rats to try x 2
It's a race, a race for rats, a race for rats to die
x 4

Run away x 9

COMMERCIAL FOR LEVI Traduction

You're the one who's always choking trojan
You're the one who's always bruised and broken
Sleep may be the enemy
But so's another line
It's a remedy
You should take more time

You're the one who's always choking trojan
You're the one who's shower's always golden
Spunk and bestiality
Well, it's an assissi lie
It's ahead of me
You should close your fly

I understand the fascination
The dream that comes alive at night
But if you don't change your situation
Then you'll die, you'll die
Don't die, don't die
Please don't die

You're the one who's always choking trojan
You're the one who's always bruised and broken
Drunk on immortality
Valium and cherry wine
Coke and ecstasy
You're gonna blow your mind

I understand the fascination
I've even been there once or twice or more
But if you don't change your situation
Then you'll die, you'll die
Don't die, don't die
Please don't die
x 4

HAEMOGLOBIN Traduction

I was hanging from a tree
Unaccustomed to such violence
Jesus looking down on me
I'm prepared for one big silence
How'd I ever end up here
Must be through some lack of kindness
Then it seemed to dawn on me
Haemoglobin is the key

Haemoglobin is the key
To a healthy heartbeat
x 2

At the time they cut me free
I was brimming with defiance
Doctors looking down on me
Breaking every law of science
How'd I ever end up here
A latent strain of color blindness
Then it seemed to dawn on me
Haemoglobin is the key

Haemoglobin is the key
To a healthy heartbeat
x 4

And now my feet don't touch the ground

As they dragged me to my feet
I was filled with incoherence
Theories of conspiracy:
The whole world wants my dissapearance
I'll go fighting nail and theeth
You've never seen such perseverance
Going to make you scared of me
'Cause haemoglobin is the key

Haemoglobin is the key
To a healthy heartbeat
x 4

And now my feet don't touch the ground x 8

NARCOLEPTIC Traduction

Slip and stumble at my first offences
It's not treason, it's no lie
You talk in paragraphs, I write my sentence
It's not treason, it's no lie

It seemed a place for us to dream x 2

Crush and crumble under your defences
It's not treason, it's no lie
You frame the photograph, I sit on fences
Change of season, love can die

It seemed a place for us to dream x 4

If we tear out the tumour
It's later, never sooner
x 2

It seemed a place for us to dream x 2

You'd better keep it in check
Or you'll end up a wreck
And you'll never wake up
You'd better keep it in check
Or you'll end up a wreck
And you'll never wake up
Wake up

PEEPING TOM Traduction

I'm careful not to fall
I have to climb your wall
'Cause you're the one who makes me feel much taller than you are
I'm just Peeping Tom
On my own for far too long
Problems with the booze
Nothing left to lose

I'm weightless
I'm bare
I'm faithless
I'm scared

The face that fills the hole
That stole my broken soul
The one that makes me seem to feel much taller than you are
I'm just Peeping Tom
On my own for far too long
Troubles with the gear
Nothing left to fear

I'm weightless
I'm bare
I'm faithless
I'm scared
x 2

With every bet I lost
And every trick I tossed
You're still the one who makes me feel much taller than you are
I'm just Peeping Tom
On my own for far too long
Problems with the booze
Nothing left to lose

I'm weightless
I'm bare
I'm faithless
I'm scared
x 2

I'm scared x 4

BLACK MARKET BLOOD Traduction

Wasted face that swallowed time
With Armageddon crawling
She's insane, this friend of mine
And she's always bawling
Hear her calling
Hear her calling you
Hear her calling
Hear her calling you

There's a place within her mind
With rains already falling
She's insane, this friend of mine
And she's always bawling
Hear her calling
Hear her calling you
Hear her calling
Hear her calling you

She's preparing for the flood
The deluge and the sliding mud
She's preparing for the flood
Running on black market blood
Black market blood

Wasted face that swallowed time
With Armageddon crawling
She's insane, this friend of mine
And she's always bawling
Hear her calling
Hear her calling you
Hear her calling
Hear her calling you

She's preparing for the flood
The deluge and the sliding mud
She's preparing for the flood
Running on black market blood
Black market blood
Black market blood
Black market blood
Black market
