Girls in Black

Debauche May 28 2023

In the smoke and the red
Workin’ the late night sweat
You’re the one to go to
When I wanna forget
Like hangin’ off the moon
I don’t wanna come down
Yeah, you get me so high
It’s hell on the ground
Just one little glass
Makes the night go fast
You can have what you want
If you pay the girl cash
I said girls
Girls in black
Ooh, I said girls
Girls in black, ooh, yeah!
You’re the hot bright neon
In the cold dark night
When I’m feelin’ down
You make me feel so right
Yeah your bait comes free
But your hooks cut deep, ooh
You make the bad boys smile
And you make the good boys weep
Just one little glass
Makes the night go fast
You can have what you want
If you pay the girl cash
I said girls
Girls in black
Ooh, I said girls
Girls in black
Ooh, I said girls
Girls in black
Ooh, I said girls
Girls in black (oh, yeah!)
Ooh, yeah, just one little glass
Makes the night go fast
Ooh, you can have what you want
If you pay the girl cash
I said girls
Girls in black
Ooh, I said girls
Girls in black
Ooh, I said girls
Girls in black
Ooh, I said girls
Girls in black (oh, yeah!)

The Politics of Dancing

We got the message
I heard it on the airwaves
The politicians
Are now DJs
The broadcast was spreading
Station to station
Like an infection
Across the nation
Though you know you can’t stop it
When they start to play
You’re gonna get out the way
The politics of dancing
The politics of, ooh, feeling good
The politics of moving, aha
If this message’s understood
The politics of dancing
The politics of, ooh, feeling good
The politics of moving, aha
If this message’s understood
We’re under pressure
Yes we’re counting on you
Like what you say
Is what you do
It’s in the papers
It’s on your tv news
Oh, the application
Is just a point of view
Well you know you can’t stop it
When they start to play
You’re gonna get out the way
The politics of dancing
The politics of, ooh, feeling good
The politics of moving, aha
If this message’s understood
The politics of dancing
The politics of, ooh, feeling good
The politics of moving, aha
If this message’s understood
The politics of dancing
The politics of, ooh, feeling good
The politics of moving, aha
If this message’s understood
The politics of dancing
The politics of, ooh, feeling good
The politics of moving, aha
If this message’s understood

Extreme Ways

Extreme ways are back again
Extreme places I didn’t know
I broke everything new again
Everything that I’d owned
I threw it out the windows, came along
Extreme ways I know move apart The colors of my sea
Perfect color me
Extreme ways that help me
That help me out late at night
Extreme places I had gone
But never seen any light
Dirty basements, dirty noise
Dirty places coming through
Extreme worlds alone
Did you ever like it then
I would stand in line for this
There’s always room in life for this
Oh baby, oh baby
Then it fell apart, it fell apart
Oh baby, oh baby
Then it fell apart, it fell apart
Extreme songs that told me
They helped me down every night
I didn’t have much to say
I didn’t get above the light
I closed my eyes and closed myself
And closed my world and never opened
Up to anything
That could get me along
I had to close down everything
I had to close down my mind
Too many things to cover me
Too much can make me blind
I’ve seen so much in so many places
So many heartaches, so many faces
So many dirty things
You couldn’t even believe
I would stand in line for this
It’s always good in life for this
Oh baby, oh baby
Then it fell apart, it fell apart
All day, all day
Then it fell apart, it fell apart
(Falling apart)
It’s a Monday morning, it’s everywhere
Oh no I can’t
All day, all day
Then it fell apart, it fell apart
All day, all day
Then it fell apart, it fell apart
All day, all day
Then it fell apart, it fell apart
All day, all day
Like it always does, always does

Happy Christmas/War is Over

Happy Christmas, Kyoko
Happy Christmas, Julian
So this is Christmas and what have you done?
Another year over, a new one just begun.
And so this is Christmas, I hope you have fun,
The near and the dear one
The old and the young
A very merry Christmas
And a happy new year,
Let’s hope it’s a good one
Without any fear
And so this is Christmas
For weak and for strong,
(War is over if you want it)
For the rich and the poor ones,
The road is so long.
(War is over now)
And so happy Christmas for black and for whites,
(War is over if you want it)
For the yellow and red ones,
Let’s stop all the fight.
(War is over now)
A very merry Christmas
And a happy new year
Let’s hope it’s a good one
Without any fear
And so this is Christmas
And what have we done?
(War is over if you want it)
Another year over,
A new one just begun.
(War is over if you want it)
And so this is Christmas,
We hope you have fun
(War is over if you want it)
The near and the dear one,
The old and the young
(War is over now)
A very merry Christmas
And a Happy New Year,
Let’s hope it’s a good one
Without any fear
War is over
If you want it
War is over now
Happy Christmas!
Happy Christmas!
Happy Christmas!
(War is over if you want it)
The near and the dear one,
The old and the young
(War is over now)
A very merry Christmas
And a Happy New Year,
Let’s hope it’s a good one
Without any fear
War is over
If you want it
War is over now

See Emily Play

Emily tries but misunderstands, ah ooh
She’s often inclined to borrow somebody’s dreams till tomorrow
There is no other day
Let’s try it another way
You’ll lose your mind and play
Free games for May
See Emily play
Soon after dark Emily cries, ah ooh
Gazing through trees in sorrow hardly a sound till tomorrow
There is no other day
Let’s try it another way
You’ll lose your mind and play
Free games for May
See Emily play
Put on a gown that touches the ground, ah ooh
Float on a river forever and ever, Emily (Emily)
There is no other day
Let’s try it another way
You’ll lose your mind and play
Free games for May
See Emily play
