Lyrics:
Over Reykjavik, the "smokey bay" Where WH auden went To discover the background of all our songs Where I myself was received By the Mayor and the President (600 miles an hour 30, 000 feet 599 miles an hour My old street number on Belmont Ave) Where I, a second rater by any estimation Was honoured by the noblest And handsomest people of the West Served with lobster and strong drink And I never cared about eyes But the eyes of the waitress Were so alarmingly mauve That I fell into a trance And ate the forbidden shellfish
Ignorance is the root of fear Fear is the kindling of anger War is the bringer of shame But never has the burden lain so heavily upon the victim Rage and desolation Pain and loneliness Isn't it all alarmingly familiar? Hey, hey, hey, silence is a killer News from the front News from the front Yeah these are troubled times How many more will have to die Before the governors can't deny the news from the front?
Everyone has a system, but they can't seem to win Even Bob Geldof looks alarmingly thin I got to get on that shuttle get me out of this place But there's gonna be warfare up there in outer space [Chorus] I've got clothes on my back and shoes on my feet A roof over my head and something to eat My kids are all healthy and my folks are alive You know, it's amazing but sometimes I think I'll survive I've got all of my fingers and all of my toes I'm pretty well off I guess, I suppose So how come I feel bad so much of the time?
House for sale I'm moving out I'm moving on This bird has flown House for sale I'll tell you where to redirect my mail House for sale Take a look inside This is where love Once did reside But now it's gone And that's the reason I'll be traveling on Well the roof has given in to the weather And the windows rattle and moan Paint is peeling, cracks in the ceiling Whatever's happened to my happy home House for sale I've had enough I'll send a van to get my stuff house for sale I'm leaving like I'm getting out of jail Do do, do do, who who who who Do do do do do, do do do do do The stairs are alarmingly shaky And the carpet threadbare and worn Fence needs mending Garden needs tending How soon it's become overgrown Oh house for sale I've had enough I'll send a van to pick up my stuff House for sale I'm leaving like I'm getting out of jail I'm leaving like I'm getting out of jail House for sale I'm talking to you Because with time, care, cash Peace, love and understanding It can be as good as new House for sale, house for sale
Ignorance is the root of fear Fear is the kindling of anger War is the bringer of shame But never has the burden lain so heavily upon the victim Rage and desolation Pain and loneliness Isn't it all alarmingly familiar? Hey, hey, hey, silence is a killer. News from the front News from the front Yeah these are troubled times How many more will have to die Before the governors can't deny the news from the front?
My little lover's gonna be another, copy of Raquel Welch, I'll build her a house and a made named Jill And spend the rest of my life down in Beverly Hills, I'll never have to feed her, And she'll stay pretty all the time, Oh, yes she will I love the way she's gonna rock and roll, From the early morning 'til late late night Non stop rock 'n' bop and she'll never ever die When I want money she can go to work, As a roadie for Adam Ant And if he comes on strong he'll be in for a shock, 'Cos she'll open his face and clean his clock I'll never have to feed her, And she'll stay pretty all the time Rock 'n' roll, My little girl, the best in the world Softer than steel, she's alarmingly real, My mechanical girl, my satanical pearl You're the best in the world, Wild thing, I think I love you I'll never have to clean her, And she'll stay perfect all the time (Oh yeah)
The forest is finally surrounding all of me I want to stay in the halls of all-ways We can only stay if we can collect the firewood I want to stay in the halls of all-ways Everything can exist beyond the natural laws What makes more sense cre the limits & boundaries of animal thought Cause everything is alarmingly beautiful to fit into our Commonsense fluctuates the cell wall Lead the way through The way to the summit at the highest high The forest can form the waves that lead through Everything can exist beyond the natural laws What makes more sense cre the limits & boundaries of animal thought Cause everything is alarmingly beautiful To fit into our commonsense Fluctuates the cell wall
The motor buzzes in the basement Behind a curtain Behind a wall Upstairs the crowds have all gathered to see How they can make money off tragedy Police police me It's so easy Heads hover above podiums and, Nobody understands that they don't stand a chance The glow of this show is alarmingly charming The stars are all smiling It's disarming Police police me And all the while We're waiting For something like a sign From the hole of lost control From our overmade minds Come on go Goodnight bloodsuckers Sleep tight in your traps The cheapest trash gets bought so fast The cops and the criminals The safe and the stray They all mix in the ditches anyway Police police me
Blue and black lighting, Opaque in its view, It’s speed is frightening, Alarmingly new. The clouds roll in, They take away the light, The day is now dim, The day is now night.
When every sound When every move When every thing That you do Is charming me Disarming me Alarmingly What’s happening Heart pounding Head shouting Taking Me by surprise Can’t stop this I’m hopeless Unless I’m paralyzed I’m frozen Mouth open With you I’m mesmerized Blood rushing Face blushing I’m hypnotized Still any taste Still any touch Still any way Is way to much Still charming me Disarming me Alarmingly This is still happening Heart pounding Head shouting With you Its no surprise I’m hopeless Eyes focused I have You memorized I’m frozen Mouth open With you I’m mesmerized Blood rushing Face blushing I’m hypnotized Why can’t I Why can’t I I can’t control my eyes Why can’t I Why can’t I I’m hypnotized
This drone you sound alarmingly meek Is inside my head and plummets my bed It rallies and summons me in my sleep The sun is groggy and upon your plate Arms do fumble they're out of their frame Luster has moved and opted your space When you call a caddy I'll be the kind you use The sagas pose their levee That's the kind that floats to you And after all I idle to carry on The clocks married the dated Operas sails salutes The planks are calm with boredom It's the kind you tend to coo Every gala's a blanket in flight And I'm the kind you use And you with all your ready is a horror The recital is staged and ready to recite Stating the flaws and running you wild But I'll be any stable you like The radius is starting to stumble and fright The loveliest station is wailing from sight But I am ready to part from you

Loving never growing up like neverland When ya livin' like an adolescent ain't life grand Shambolic situation when you're changing hands It's contraband when you're living with leeches A crash course in insubordination 'Cause I'm a spit a twat automation Why you sucking all my inspiration Annihilation of my creation I've got bite marks all over my skin From when you got your teeth and sank 'em in I'm feeling drained and I'm alarmingly thin It's just a symptom when you're living with leeches Even a sponge has a point of saturation But you're taking tears blood and perspiration Here's a little sucking leech quotation Coming to my end of toleration Needs evading, quit complaining I'm parasitical head displacing Fleas and lice they need erasing Eradicate, every single plaguing Hesitating, leech invading Filthy wading, you know it's degrading Living with leeches I've got bite marks all over my skin From when you got your teeth and sank 'em in I'm feeling drained and I'm alarmingly thin It's just a symptom when you're living with leeches
I stand depleted Much of your love Can't be replaced I deleted your songs Believed it could make up for your wrongs I stand defeated as I'm low on life Set me free As I drop the magic wand I stand tall, the magic's gone Moonlight begins to fade When the sun arise in the dawn I can't breathe when you are home I can't see when you are gone A rising tide, alarmingly wide Losing sight, I'm starting to slide As I walk up and through the bedroom door All I see is your clothes on the god damn floor I approach the king size bed from the side Tension is rising, barely surprising Temperature rising, it's energizing appetizing, galvanizing mesmerizing, polarizing emphasizing, tranquilizing God damn it's energizing Why are you leaving this place?
Talking to my exes trynna figure out what's wrong with me Why I don't feel good enough and why does everybody leave Why is it so hard to sleep but when I do I get bad dreams It's hard to breathe I'm harmfully accepting of this part of me Alarmingly they said they inspired by the heart in me Moving round the police cause the president can't pardon me So pardon me I just need some space to breathe alone Let them throw their stones at me until there's no more rocks to throw Yeah I live in Texas it's exactly what you thought it was Speaking from my chest cause I don't wanna keep it bottled up Shit been hella fucked in the aftermath of Donald Trump Ima light eight joints all at once like it's Hanukkah Know your baby mama but I can not say I'm fond of ya Not inside your business but I heard them people on to ya Heard your opps was creeping man I hope they don't roll onto ya Can you hear me out is this just another song to ya I been ducking opps since before I knew what opps was I been rocking chains I don't even know the cost of Shells got your legs looking noodles like some pasta If you need the sauce hit me up I got ya Talking to my exes trynna figure out what's wrong with me Why I don't feel good enough and why does everybody leave Why is it so hard to sleep but when I do I get bad dreams It's hard to breathe I'm harmfully accepting of this part of me Alarmingly they said they inspired by the heart in me Moving round the police cause the president can't pardon me So pardon me I just need some space to breathe alone Let them throw their stones at me until there's no more rocks to throw Now I don't wear no fucking watch but I got time today Riding round the east and I'm just looking for an opp to lay Just left the studio and my duffle bag got some major weight I dare a nigga test me this baby drake make your body shake Can't wait for him to play I go grab the carbon no gta Riding in the scat with lil ten he just might let it spray And if you play with my gang then you ain't really safe Pulling up on Sean and them twenty k I just made a play Pop another perc to the head I can't tell you my pain But if that nigga test me them shooters aiming right at his brain And that can go for them too them bullets ain't even got a name Even Jay the Dumbest gon slime em out put that on the gang Talking to my exes trynna figure out what's wrong with me Why I don't feel good enough and why does everybody leave Why is it so hard to sleep but when I do I get bad dreams It's hard to breathe I'm harmfully accepting of this part of me Alarmingly they said they inspired by the heart in me Moving round the police cause the president can't pardon me So pardon me I just need some space to breathe alone Let them throw their stones at me until there's no more rocks to throw
There was a girl I knew with eyes like the moon Glazed over with a look of panic mixed with gloom I swore she thought no one was like her I know she thought no one took her word Winona cries in bed alone in the dark Her sounds are blended with muted cries of a lark Her only friend that lies awake at night Who once again, disappears at the first light Alarmingly vacant Silently breaking No one knows what her last words were A mystery and mistake There was a girl I knew with eyes like the moon Glazed over with a look of panic mixed with gloom I swore she thought no one was like her I know she thought no one took her word
(Come my way) Know that I'ma catch your worst intention when you come my way It won't take long for you to question why you'd come my way Know when you come my way It's my way Knew you'd follow me It's just psychology If I hear you call for me, I got my way Are you watching me? Say you're all for me You alarmingly fit my taste Still wanna see if I'm anything new? Easy to see you got something to prove Startin' to think you might know what to do When I walk past you How you gonna capture my attention when you come my way?
'And he actually held up the weapon before our eyes, and there, dressed in a suit and tie, he smiled and told us with pride in his voice that "this model was largely represented in the Gulf war!". He was so very proper and clean. And so alarmingly blind!' Welcome inside the machine It hurts! Go numb, go blind One's drilling out a pipe One adjusts the aim One makes trigger parts Weapons as a game!

Find me sitting under the oak tree Wondering why we can't be Here together so peacefully But I can't be sure I am not a beacon For a cause of immorality Cause recent things have seemed Alarmingly empowering And I just don't believe so Take me back to my Life inside a cage Life inside a cage Is better than real life real life Soundly ignorant to my surroundings And I cannot believe what I have seen A ghost appeared to me and told me That things were not as they seem A world of light revealed from darkness And hark, the ghost just made it known Just like the ignoramus takes the blame for us The scapegoat's all the same to us Take me back to my Life inside a cage Life inside a cage Is better than real life real life Take me back to my Life inside a cage Life inside a cage Is better than real life real life
I wish you hated your mom Wish that you lied and threw things on the floor I wish that you were unkind Wish you were something I could blame you for Wish i could find a little red on your collar or sleeve But all I see is green Green I wish you'd laugh in my face Make me feel small for the things I do and say But you make me feel alarmingly safe Ship's reached the shore and the sails are stored away Wish your love would turn brown with November and wintering trees But all I see is green Green I wish that I wasn't scared Wish you could stop by and i'd leave my door open I wish that I felt prepared to invite you inside and feel like Nothing's missing I'd let your love in like a pocket of sunlight in spring And see i'm growing green Green
we’ll build a house for the summer i am in a million pieces i’m alarmingly content and i am bored to death and i don’t want to hear your thesis you still said it i don’t care what you meant i don’t care what you meant out of the fold but i’ll do what i’m told pour out your soul into mine change if you want i’m a saint til i’m not
And just let the feeling move through you Caught in the conversation too many times Inside my silence My heart's beating loud like you I'm alarmingly amused
