SHAKESPEARE WAS AN AMERICAN
Shakespeare was an American, American, a savage one
Shakespeare was an American, sing a long Americans
Downtown faces all alone
Disco lights but no one home
Shakespeare was an American
Everything is coming up dead roses
Everything is coming up dead roses
Friday night is terrible, Saturday forgettable
Human trash down to the bone
We love your face, in a fade-out-way
Sacred hours on Madison
Dubonnet in Camden Town
Shakespeare was an American

FASHION WEEK
We´re ready for blackout, our faces are blue
Small tiny fingers from pills and glue
Dynamite poses, blowing kisses on que
We´re ready for blackout, some cocaine too
Taking my picture, blowing kisses on que
From fashion to fashion
There´s no killing time
From fashion to fashion
It´s all do or die
We pray at the nightclub
I´m ready to join the human race
But now I´m too busy with Johnnys nails
We´re ready for blackout, our faces are blue

DAMASCUS 602
I used to be a dead man
Now I´m just a man
You wanted something more to break
And my head upon your plate
I used to be a good boy
Then, woken with a kiss
I used to drive a car
I used to be a pig
I used to be a dead man

FROM THE SHADOWS
Alive like flower by the subway rail
Dance like Nijinsky on broken glass
Just like a car crash that lies in wait
One red light away
FROM THE SHADOWS – Everybody says hello
FROM THE SHADOWS –There’s no place to fall
FROM THE SHADOWS – We´ll never say goodbye
These are the nights of our lives
Bye, Little Piggie, your name was on my list
You´re far from the planet of good and bad
Just like a car crash that lies in wait
One red light away
FROM THE SHADOWS – Everybody says hello
FROM THE SHADOWS –There’s no place like home
FROM THE SHADOWS – We´ll never say goodbye
These are our lives passing by
Sangre beauty
So-so beauty queen…

They Walked Like Men

THEY WALKED LIKE MEN
Fifteen steps from eternity
Two steps from your door
Sixteen eyes and a greenish tail
One step from your door
There´s nothing in this world that you can´t destroy
So come on let´s fall in love
Sixteen eyes and a dead end smile
No crystal ball
Seventeen and nothing going on
Seventeen there´s nothing going on
Tell the news there´s nothing going on
They walked like men

SPIRITS OF THE DEAD WATCHING
Goodnight, Mrs hangman
Goodbye, beautiful girl
There´s no time for you to pretend
There´s no time for you to make friends
There´s no time, boys and girls
There´s no time to look to the stars
Bright city lights, bright city cries
Let´s burn down the discoteque
Bright city lights, bright city cries
Let´s burn like Mephisto
There´s no time for you to pretend
There´s no time for you to make friends
There´s no time for praying hands
There´s no time for La La Land
There´s no time to surrender

EUROPEAN BLOOD
From Portugal to Kentish Town
We slept through the day
Snatching bodies with a blink of an eye
Burning slow in Belgravia
Subterranean nights
Snatching bodies, we dressed up to kill
We were the faces
We were the ones
Playground sensation
European blood on our hands
We were the white noise
We had it all
Playground sensation
European blood on our hands
From Portugal to Fulham Road
We slept through the day
Snatching bodies with a blink of an eye

SPIDERS
Determination – here comes the after world
It’s like suffocation – I’m not the best of girls
Determination – I´m on the night xpress
It´s no celebration - here comes the after world
Spiders in love
We’re two spiders in love
Suburbia lives is something to die for; determination
Suburbia lives is something to cry for
crying for the moon, determination, liebling
Coughs like an angel, no time to play it safe
Down goes an angel, Downtown to Marakech
Determination – here comes the after world

KILLED AGAIN
Jesus gave us disco lights
Saturdays and lonely nights
Everything’s so cool
When no one’s in control
Someone gave us a cross to bear
Americans their Savoir fair
We’d love to stay and talk
But we’re dead against it all
Sixteen angels under ground
Babyface, drag me down
Sixteen angels gone today
You´ll never feel the pain
When you´re killed again
Someone gave us a cross to bear
Late night drinking and love despair
The Lord is mighty strong
But fashion’s in command
I can´t tell night from day
How can I tell when there is no hell

CRASHING
Spare me, little girl, spare me. Spare me, little girl
Spare me, little girl. I’m nobody at all.
I know you won’t. You know you won’t
spare me, little girl, spare me. Spare me, little girl
Just like crashing in that dream again
And I´ll come driving back for more
Just like crashing in that dream again
And you´re no Venus after all
Look upon the sky and tell me, tell me what you see
Look upon the sky and tell me is it really you and me?
