Phone Richie 02:54
PHONE RICHIE (Lyrics: Ambika Thompson) we live outside where we see no perfect place for you or me it's a timeless life just stay col-col-col-col-cold we'll turn ourselves into the creepy, creepy people we wanna be we'll tell some lies and slam some doors till we get bored Let's all hopelessly suck ambitions are for those who don't fuck we'll get punished for all the lies and joy we've had who cares so let's get high and fuck for hours it will be beautiful we'll bury our heads beneath the sheets to breath a suffocating smell of sleaze and turn ourselves into the creepy people we wanna be we'll take this terrible life and make it something bearable you say as we mess around and never go to sleep Let's all hopelessly suck ambitions are for those who don't fuck we'll get punished for all the lies and joy we've had who cares so let's get high and fuck for hours it will be beautiful

AMAZING GRACE (Lyrics: Karen Thompson/Ambika Thompson) Strange I've seen your face before In bathrooms on the dirty floor A poster on the other side of the door Island life: sexy, shiny I wondered how could I be like you It's so depressing being like me Longing so bad, to be like you To be like you An Alien!! A VHS bootleg, live at The Roseland Halloween '78 Real tiger on stage, Autumn leaves, I need a Man A real tiger man Bulletproof Harty slapped him on his face He probably liked it That's why all the queens adore you We won't ignore you Amazing Grace!! When you were growing up in Spanish town ella no habla español Did you dream you'd meet that big thick Swedish clown hon teller inte svenkse heller Well I guess I liked him in Rocky IV So hot, so very hot But I liked him better in Red Scorpion Even hotter Red Scorpion!! Amazing Grace, how sweet the sound that saved a wretch like me I once was lost, but now I'm found was blind but now I see T'was Grace that pulled up to my bumper baby t'was Grace in James Bond's View to a Kill

BLEEDING THROUGH (Lyrics: Ambika Thompson) Take my hand and I will give you head my way, and do whatever I say I've been bleeding through I've been bleeding My sheets every night I'm on fire Dirty girls, turn up your radios tell them lies, and they will close their Thighs I've been bleeding through I've been bleeding My sheets every night I'm on fire I've been wanting you Cut my heart out Wet dreams all the time I'm on fire

FUCK YOU (Lyrics: Ambika Thompson) you make a living outta getting high trying to pluck virgins from the sky you wanna be a really cool guy but you can't get your ass outta this bar you tell me everything you've done and how you're always so much fun then you ask me to go home with you but there's no way in hell i'd ever fuck you i know about a dozen girls you fucked and they all say that you're so fucked up then you tell me about the diseases you've had and it's starting to make me feel real sad you tell me everything you've done and how you almost touched the sun then you ask me to go home with you but there's no way in hell i'd ever fuck you though she hears that you're real good in bed she doesn't want nothing that's going on in your head though she could probably do with a real good shag she'd rather not do that all this time i'm sitting here just quickly trying to finish my beer hoping that somebody will sit next to and you'll have something else to do you tell me everything you've done and how you're always on the run and then you ask me to come home with you but there's no way in hell that i'd ever fuck you fuck you

Hey Pony 02:22
HEY PONY (Lyrics: Ambika Thompson) Hey Pony, come on tell me what's on your mind. Have you heard the news that all of your friends have died? Sorry Pony we just found out about it ourselves Hey Pony, do you know where they've gone? They're on my plate and all of the plates of everyone. Jump in the cheese and wrap yourself around a noodle Hey Pony, tell us all about your tasty bits Can we see them, will you show them to us, Pony please? Are your thighs just as yummy as the rest of it Are you succulent? We wanna have a bite of it Hey Pony don't you cry It's not the worst way, it's not the worst way to die Though it's fairly unpleasant it will be over before you know what hit you I wanna taste you, I wanna make you mine Jump in the lasagne, don't worry it will be fine Or the bolognese or anything else that's made with beef Hey pony, tell us all about your tasty bits Cause you're yummy inside, can we have a little bit? Are you tender, are you better roasted, fried or dried? Do you taste like a cow? Oh Pony, tell us, tell us now. But we bet you can't cook yourself. We'll do it for you... We're hungry for you, Love Are you yummy, or just teasing us? We only want to lick you once before we take a bite. How can it not be right? Hey Pony tell us, tell us about your tasty bits Are you yummy, we wanna have a bite of it Hey Pony Pony, we wanna know what you think Are you tasty there laying next to the sink?

SPAIN ATTACKS (Lyrics: Karen Thompson) They Can't stay Cause shit is going down They can't beat, what's behind them Rattling and shaking their empty cans 8 years in architect school? Should have made other plans Now the Jarapas pulled out from under and you can hear them coming on loud like thunder The party's over; come here and shiver You can eat your tomatoes here all winter In a lightning storm their gonna zambra to you Watch them light up like a pinball machine In a zombie dream their gonna chew your brain and hunt you down all the way from Spain SPAIN ATTACKS! The Reconquista; the 1990s Driving their SEATS, through better times They can't stay, cause shit is going down They can't beat, what Franco left behind him Oh but the Pyrenees, the olive trees, the plastic seas look at these! Sex still sells but the pros are from the Balkans cause no ones buying local anymore In a lightning storm their gonna zambra to you Watch them light up like a pinball machine In a zombie dream their gonna chew your brain and hunt you down all the way from Spain SPAIN ATTACKS!

Heartbreaker 02:45
HEARTBREAKER (Lyrics: Ambika Thompson) Once in a lifetime you fall in love with a skinny, sweaty guy from a video wearing glasses like Malcolm X and dancing like nobody you've ever known David David David Byrne Byrne Byrne Byrne a hole in my heart why didn't you answer any of my letters that i sent since '81 didn't you know that we had so much in common like i also don't like people when they aren't polite even if i was just six years old we could have made it work out just fine David David David Byrne Byrne Byrne Byrne a hole in my heart why didn't you answer any of my letters that i sent since 1981 In another place In another place I would do you wrong I would do you wrong In another time In another time Wouldn't hurt so long Wouldn't hurt so long You didn't need to get me arrested for hanging out in front of your house what did you take me for? A psycho killer That wasn't what it's all about I heard that you were with Cindy Sherman I guess she's kinda, sorta O.K. David David David Byrne Byrne Byrne Byrne a hole in my heart why didn't you answer any of my letters that i sent since 1981

Suspiria 02:38
SUSPIRIA (Lyrics: Karen Thompson) Suzy Banyon, just got in from New York Little ballet girl, she got herself all wet She sees a girl running out, running scared From the Tanz Akademie. She doesn't stop but Suzy hears her say: Three Irises, turn the blue one The secret I saw it-behind that door! Disembowelments, maggots, and medicated wine Got Suzy wondering what's going on. She hears a story about a Black Queen And then she knows where she's got to go Three Irises, she turns the blue one And Hell is waiting there behind that door Mater Suspiriorum in her hidden lair Leaving only death in her wake! Three Mothers from the Black Sea Three different kinds, of sad ladies Bad luck doesn't come from-broken mirrors But broken minds! Strong-willed Suzy, she went beyond that door And she found herself a wizened old witch And the witch said to her 'you want to kill me?' And Suzy, she got herself real scared Three Irises, she turns the blue one The living dead is behind that door Mater Suspiriorum in her hidden lair Leaving only death in her wake! Hey! Yeah! Boo!
