Too Much Information
Destroyed by MTV, I hate to bite the hand that Feeds me so much information The pressure's on the screen To sell you things that you don't need It's too much information for me Hey TV Child look into my eyes Here by intervention, I want your attention Promotion Boy in a suit and tie He wants you to use it You're too shot to loose it It's pumpin' down the cable Like never saw before A cola manufacturer is sponsorin' the war Here comes the news with love from me to you Destroyed by ABC I hate to bite the hand that Feeds me so much information The Pressure's on the screen To sell you things that you don't need It's too much information for me Turn on the tube Hits you with the Groove Advertisin' music We want you to choose it These teeth are white trainers ULTRA BRITE This band is perfect just don't scratch the surface We covered all the angles The survey people said Just put us on the cover we'll be smilin' anyway This video was made with Love for you Destroyed by BBC I hate to bite the hand that Feeds me so much information The Pressure's on the screen to Sell you things that you don't need It's too much information for me Destroyed by MTV I hate to bite the hand that Feeds me so much information The Pressure's on the screen to Sell you things that you don't need It's too much information for me Dilate your MIND Dilate your MIND Dilate your MIND Dilate your MIND Got to give it to me Got to listen to me Got to give in to me Now I'm on the line I try (information) yes I try (too much information) Why should I try (information) cause I try (too much information) Gotta give it to me gotta listen to me gotta give it too me

Ordinary World
Came in from a rainy Thursday On the avenue Thought I heard you talking softly I turned on the lights, the TV And the radio Still I can't escape the ghost of you What has happened to it all? Crazy, some are saying Where is the life that I recognize? Gone away But I won't cry for yesterday There's an ordinary world Somehow I have to find And as I try to make my way To the ordinary world I will learn to survive Passion or coincidence Once prompted you to say "Pride will tear us both apart" Well now pride's gone out the window Cross the rooftops Run away Left me in the vacuum of my heart What is happening to me? Crazy, some'd say Where is my friend when I need you most? Gone away But I won't cry for yesterday There's an ordinary world Somehow I have to find And as I try to make my way To the ordinary world I will learn to survive Papers in the roadside Tell of suffering and greed Here today, forgot tomorrow Ooh, here besides the news Of holy war and holy need Ours is just a little sorrowed talk And I don't cry for yesterday There's an ordinary world Somehow I have to find And as I try to make my way To the ordinary world I will learn to survive Every one Is my world, I will learn to survive Any one Is my world, I will learn to survive Any one Is my world Every one Is my world

Love Voodoo
When I first met you on the roof You cought me in your web of youth But now I know the wicked truth It's much to late so what's the use in fighting? You peel me like an onion skin And wonder at the state I'm in One day you'll turn up to begin And find there's nothing left but innuendo Beside you others fade away Like Amateurs in love's charade Much more than just a game you play These certain rules become a way of living Night after night I try to prove That I can resist you Tied up inside your Love Voodoo Designed to Manipulate The Queen of sensuality You shelter me from Liberty It's nothing short of Piracy That's not to say it doesn't please me sometimes. Now this may come as no surprise But I'm content to compromise Until the day you realize That I have been manipulating you Night after night I try to prove That I can resist you Tied up inside your Love Voodoo Designed to Manipulate MID Yes, I'm tied up inside your loving But it's voodoo to me Everynight how I try How I try to resist you But it's no good to me Night after night I try to prove That I can resist you Tied up inside your Love Voodoo Designed to Manipulate Night after night I try to prove That I can resist you Tied up inside your Love Voodoo Designed to Manipulate

Drowning Man
He's sinking faster than a drowning man He'll grab a hold of anyone he can Gun in his poket and a heart of ham Uncle Sam He's dying faster than a rabid dog Infect us all now he's losing blood Nose for trouble and a soul of rock Smokey's man Don't drag me down I don't wanna drown Your going down NA NANA NA NANA NANA NA NA There's not much flesh Just skin and bone Cheeks sunk deep Eyes popping wide Don't put out a hand to help him This drowning man will bite it right off RIGHT OFF RIGHT OFF RIGHT OFF Don't drag me down I don't wanna drown Your going down NA NANA NA NANA NANA NA NA [MID] He's selling faster than a magazine Infect us all with his TV Screen Don't drag me down I don't wanna drown Your going down NA NANA NA NANA NANA NA NA

Shotgum
Shotgun Get it together, thing is jumpin' I wanna see your bullets pumpin' Shotgun Get your finger on the trigger Got to make the shooter bigger (Now it's your turn) Shotgun Shotgun

Come Undone
Mine, immaculate dream made breath and skin I've been waiting for you Signed, with a home tattoo, Happy birthday to you was created for you (can't ever keep from falling apart At the seams Can't I believe you're taking my heart To pieces) Oh, it'll take a little time, Might take a little crime To come undone now [PRECHORUS] We'll try to stay blind To the hope and fear outside Hey child, stay wilder than the wind And blow me in to cry [CHORUS] Who do you need, who do you love When you come undone [repeat] [Verse 2] Words, playing me deja vu Like a radio tune I swear I've heard before Chill, is it something real Or the magic I'm feeding off your fingers (Can't ever keep from falling apart At the seams Can I believe you're taking my heart To pieces) Lost, in a snow filled sky, we'll make it alright To come undone now

Breath After Breath
Breath after breath. Ama! Breath after breath. Dança! Every day I wake up in this room and I don't know Where I come from, where I'm going to then I hear the voice Senhora musa da paz Me abraça, me carrega no teu andor Dormir no colo da dor Amiga, Arrasa! A tua mão desenhou O sonho na areia Agora entrega de vez meu rumo E vida From where I stand The truth isn't black and white Alone we live and die We love and fight Breath after breath we carry this mortal coil Safe for tomorrow Do I dare, oh do I dare follow through the message my whole body hears Beating on my heart like a feather beating of a moment 'til I disappear Diga uma palavra alegre Manda um recado, que seja agora Faz o mundo ficar novo E dançar no colo do tal de amor From where I stand The truth isn't black and white Alone we live and die We love and fight Breath after breath we carry this mortal coil Circles in sand are washed out into the sea Just as we slip on through to eternity Breath after breath we carry this mortal coil Safe for tomorrow Diga uma palavra, cara Bem alegre Corre, manda logo um recado Me abraça Faz um clima doce Me arrepia! Chega de sufoco! Me põe louco! Me faz diamante Teu amante Dança ao som do vento Me ensina

UMF
Here we stand in the shadow of the master plan Makin' trouble wherever we can, stir it up, stir it up, stir it up Can't you see this boy is going cheap - knockdown to a basement deal But I really won't stop til I get to the top Take it from me, I'm waiting here on my knees And I love the way you tease me (oh) such a wonderful person Don't play rough - it's easy when you know your stuff Say please and sure enough, so kind, I'm makin' love to the ultimate mind Come on, take a look, put it to me, baby You could feel a love come tumbling down I just want to wrap myself in you baby We could tell the world we're fooling around Ultimately, I'd say she's toying with me It's a case of wait and see, but right now I'm gonna keep my pants on A to Zed, she's doin' it to my head We don't need to go to bed, you'll find, to make love to the ultimate mind (Oh-oh, oh-oh-oh...) Put it to me, baby (you could feel a love...) (Oh-oh, oh-oh-oh...) Wanna wrap myself in you, baby (we'll tell the world...) Talk me round, let's do it right here and now I don't want you cooling down, turn it up, turn it up, turn it up, turn it up We could fit reality's two-way split personality Life's a bitch, but I'm fine, making love to the ultimate mind Heaven's bent, we're completely innocent We all got to pay the rent, and in time we learn to compromise Talkin' tall, but I feel invisible Can you see me after all that I said, there's only one thing for it Take a look, put it to me, baby You could feel a love come tumbling down I just want to wrap myself in you baby We can tell the world were fooling around (Oh-oh, oh-oh-oh...) Come on, take a look, put it to me, baby (Oh-oh, oh-oh-oh...) You could be a love come tumbling down (Oh-oh, oh-oh-oh...) I just want to wrap myself in you baby (Oh-oh, oh-oh-oh...) We could tell the world we're fooling around (Oh-oh, oh-oh-oh...) Come on, take a look, put it to me, baby (Oh-oh, oh-oh-oh...) You could feel a love come tumbling down (Oh-oh, oh-oh-oh...) I just want to wrap myself in you baby (Oh-oh, oh-oh-oh...) We could tell the world we're fooling around (Oh-oh, oh-oh-oh...) Come on, take a look (put it to me baby) (Oh-oh, oh-oh-oh...) (Oh-oh, oh-oh-oh...) (Oh-oh, oh-oh-oh...) I'm making love to the ultimate mind Ultimate mind Ultimate mind...

Femme Fatale
Here she comes you better watch your step. She's going to break your heart in two Its true it's not hard to realize Just look into her false coloured eyes She'll build you up just to put you down, What a clown 'Coz everybody knows... she's a femme fatale Things she does to please, sees just a little tease See the way she walks, hear the way she talks You're written in her book, You're number 37 take a look She's going to smile to make you frown, what a clown Little boy she's from the street Before you start your're already beat She's going to play you for a fool Yes it's true 'Coz everybody knows... she's a femme fatale Things she does to please, sees just a little tease See the way she walks, hear the way she talks She will try to put you doen, the hardest girl around 'Coz everybody knows... she's a femme fatale Things she does to please, sees just a little tease She's a femme fatale.

None of the Above
I am I myself alone and realize I never need to use no one When it comes down to my soul freedom puts my faith in none of the above There was a time I was so afraid of everything people around me said And I wanted to hide my face in the shadows There was a time on a bed of nails I was dreaming the plan up that could not fail But no power under the sun could pull it together Can't take this attitude I've got to show now I've got to move on God knows where I'm going to it's a lonely burning question I am I myself alone and realize I never need to use no one money power holy roads Freedom puts my faith in none of the above If there's a time (if there's a time) that we ever see (ever see) The nature of life in reality (reality) Oh I want to be there to kick out the answer I can't take this attitude I've gotta show now I've got to move on (gotta move on) God knows where I'm going to it's a lonely burning question I am I myself alone (all alone) and realize I never need to use no one Money power holy roads (holy roads) freedom puts my faith in none of the above I am I myself alone (all alone) I realize I never need to use no one When it comes down to my soul (to my soul) freedom puts my faith in none of the above I am I myself alone (on my own alone) and realize I never need to use no one (use no one) Money power holy roads (holy roads, holy roads, holy roads) Freedom puts my faith in none of the above I am I myself alone (myself alone) and realize I never need to use no one When it comes down to my soul freedom puts my faith in none of the above None of the above, my faith in none of the above, none of the above I stand by none of the above, none of the above, I stand by none of the above None of the above

Shelter
Just come softly to me in the shelter of my heart I watch you from the window working this vicious road You shudder when the wind blows girl you're looking beat and cold Don't know you situation but you look so alone to me In my imagination this is what the message reads Reaching out calling out for your love babe just come softly to me Reaching out calling out for your love for your love babe in the shelter of my heart Trust my intuition you're the one I've got to know I give without condition wouldn't try to save your soul Money or reputation doesn't mean a thing to me Special communication it's the only thing we need Reaching out, calling out just come softly to me Calling out, hear me now in the shelter of my heart Reaching out calling out for your love babe (in the shelter of my heart) (Reaching out, here me now calling out do you read me) Reaching out calling out for your love for you love babe just come softly to me (Reaching out, here me now) Here there is no hurt to feel here is safe for lips unsealed in the shelter of my heart Reaching out calling out for your love babe just come softly to me Reaching out calling out for your love for your love babe in the shelter of my heart Reaching out hear me now calling out do you read me Reaching out hear me now calling out do you read me (repeat) Reaching out calling out for your love babe (repeat) (Ad lib and fade)

Sin of the City
Coat check girl up in happy land Has a violent row with a Cuban man Julio leaves in a drunken rage Comes back with the gasoline The club has no fire exit The club only had one door Only five people came out alive The sin is that eighty-nine died Eighty-nine dead! Eighty-nine dead! Eighty-nine dead! Eighty-nine dead!

Falling Angel
From this cloud where I hang dangle in the blue I spy you all tiny creatures on the ground below For my being reckless got me strung up in the sky But love is flawed now see the lowlies cry Cut my cord now better then better off to die Here am I your falling angel dangle in the blue I'm your angel and I wish that I could be like you It's my time all I have for my crime is such Knowing that the thing I love is that which I can't touch So I watch your fragile beauty changing in the sun Love is flawed now see the lowlies cry Cut my cord now better then better off to die Well here am I your falling angel dangle in the blue I'm your angel how I wish that I could be with you Falling angel dangle in the blue I'm your angel and I wish that I could be like you I believe in you I don't believe it all but I believe in you I don't believe it all but I belive in you I don't believe it all but I believe in you I don't believe it all
