Medazzaland[]

Oh, Medazzaland
Medazzaland

I had a problem
They said they can solve
Soon I won't speak
I have no words left in me

I dream in pictures
But the sound is muted
I have no way to understand
What they say

Into Medazzaland

People are starting to talk
But I don't hear them anymore
Now I can't see
But I am still able to think

Do I have any feeling left?
What are they saying about me?
Do they really understand what's wrong?

I feel their hands on my skin
The time has come for them to begin
I'm sinking deeper and deeper
Into Medazzaland

I can feel the scalpel on my skin
It's cutting in deeper and deeper
I'm in Medazzaland
Oh, Medazzaland

Into Medazzaland
Into Medazzaland

Big Bang Generation[]

Falling into space
At the end of time
Black as the black in your eye
Staring through a hole in the ozone
There's nobody home
To play back your answerphone
Climax out of blue
Is it just another high?
No there must be something new
Now that I'm so alien

Entering the atmosphere
Don't know what is waiting here (oh no)
If there's nothing left to fear
When they come together in
The Big Bang Generation

Teardrop in the sky
Bursting my eye
Sound of morning sighs
This life is stranger than fiction
Surreal addiction
It's all I recognize
Feeding off the habit
Losing control
Where is it leading to?
Now that I'm the alien

Entering the atmosphere
Don't know what is waiting here
If there's nothing left to fear
When we come together in
The Big Bang Generation

(Feel like I'm losing control)
Big Bang Generation
(Now that I'm here alone)
Big Bang Generation
(Feel like I'm losing control)
Big Bang Generation
(Feel like I'm losing it)
We're gonna come together here

Where you coming from?
When we gonna burn out? Don't know
Having so much fun
Greetings from the Big Bang Generation
Big Bang Generation

Meet you in the Big Bang Generation
Together in the Big Bang Generation
Together we're the Big Bang Generation

Electric Barbarella[]

I knew when I first saw you on the showroom floor
You were made for me
I took you home and dressed you up in polyester
Princess of my dreams
Emotionless and cold as ice
All of the things I like
The way you look
The way you move
The sound you're makin'
In ultra-chrome, latex and steel

I plug you in
Dim the lights
Electric Barbarella
Your perfect skin
Plastic kiss
Electric Barbarella
Try to resist
Then we touch
Hallucinate and tranquilize

(she's so fine)
(she's all mine)

Our private life is subject to investigation
No time to waste
People say they heard about our deviation
But you never looked so good
Wear the fake fur and fake pearls for me
And put on your mystery
The way I feel you know
I'll never keep you waiting
In ultra-chrome, latex and steel

I plug you in
Dim the lights
Electric Barbarella
Your perfect skin
Plastic kiss
Electric Barbarella
Try to resist
Then we touch
Hallucinate and tranquilize

Princess of my dreams
Princess of my dreams
Major domo plasticomo Barbarella
(She's so fine)
Pro-genetic you Electric Barbarella
(She's all mine)
My pretty pretty pretty pretty Barbarella

Out of My Mind[]

Light a candle
Lay flowers at the door
For those who were left behind
And the ones who've gone before
But here it comes now
Sure as silence follows rain
The taste of you upon my lips
The fingers in my brain
Ever gentle as it kills me where I lay
Who am I to resist?
Who are you to fail?

Got to get you out of my mind
But I can't escape from the feeling
As I try to leave the memory behind
Without you what's left to believe in?

And I could be so sorry
For the way it had to go
But now I feel your presence
In a way I could not know
And I wonder
Do you ever feel the same
In whispering darkness
Do you ever hear my name?

Got to get you out of my mind
But I can't escape from the feeling
As I try to leave the memory behind
Without you, what's left to believe in?

How could you dare
To become so real
When you're just a ghost in me

And I've got to get you out of my mind
But I can't escape from the feeling
As I try to leave the memory behind
Without you, what's left to believe in?

Here in the back of my mind
Deep in the back of my mind

Who Do You Think You Are?[]

I'm giving you the news
Your domination's through
You gave the best you've got
Now, I'm out on top

If you're in any doubt listen to me
I've got a right to say
If you know what it's all about
Who do you think you are?

Don't wanna be your enemy
If I'm not the one you want me to be
And I've gotta do things
The way that I do

Always trying to control
Who do you think you are?

Our time on earth is running through
(It's not a question of my pride)
Sometimes I bring it again to you
(Ever wonder how I feel inside?)

And sometimes I play along
But man I've got a mind

You've gotta live with yourself
For the rest of your life, do you understand?
Everybody asks that type of question
Who do you think you are?

Why do you feel ashamed
When you can't explain
There are things I say to other people

It's just occurred to me, a possibility
The thought that you might
Really want to be me

Siva Halo[]

You shine
Where others fade
You dare
To be so brave

Don't compromise
No one can touch you
Just believe
Just believe

Come to heaven
Silva halo
Come to heaven
Silva halo

Silva halo
Silva halo

Be My Icon[]

I follow you I wait for you, you know there's no escape from me
You're more than wallpaper in my room
I write you letters and bring you gifts I'm going through all your trash
I love you so much I keep your cigarette butts

Now is the time to come out, come out of the shadows
No need to be scared you're gonna be so happy I built you a shrine
Now you can be my icon

I'm out on the edge there's no way back inside
All my friends are gone they didn't understand me
It makes so much sense there's no coincidence as you
and I alone here and I need you oh

How many hours have I stared at my face in the mirror
I get worried sometimes that the image will shatter
No need to be scared you're gonna be so happy I built you a shrine
Now you can be my icon
No need to be scared I built you a shrine now you can be my icon

I know this is real believe it we belong together
Whatever happened you're gone I've been with me forever
Be my icon you will be my icon, be my icon you will be my icon
Be my icon

Buried in the Sand[]

Can't say that I was surprised when you broke the ties they were hanging by a thread
But now I have realized it couldn't be the same coz everything has changed
I'm still lying out my hand tried to pull you back but you were buried in the sand

I'm glad that you came along but here our jouney ends I say good-bye to you
My very dear friend
You were buried in the sand (you were buried in the sand)
Hey buried in the sand (hey buried in the sand)
You were buried in the sand (you were buried in the sand)
Hey buried in the sand (hey buried in the sand)
You were buried, you were buried

Michael You've Got A Lot To Answer For[]

I came over your place today in a roundabout sort of way
Nothing holding me just the company gentle killing of the afternoon

Don't ever try to be anymore
Michael you've got a lot answer for
You unlocked some of the doors to my soul

And I don't see you for awhile thinking of you will make me smile
You never bother me with responsibility misbehaving in candlelight

Don't ever try to give anymore
Michael you've got a lot to answer for
You got me waking up right to the world

Trust you to get caught up in somebody's war
you'll come out of it all intact I'm sure
Just remember what friends were put here for
Michael you've got a lot to answer for and I know that
you're gonna call if you need me
When you need me, if you need me

Midnight Sun[]

As I watch you flickering slowly
In the shadows nothing to hold
It's as if I don't recall our time before
And would it be so wrong
Not to remember

There are times I look at you differently
Like I've never seen you before
Funny, after all we've done
You could be someone I don't know at all
Don't know you at all

Catch me, I don't want to fall

But you pull the mountain from under me
Look, I'm dangling up in the blue
And it's a cartoon kind of eternity
Before I drop down to you
What am I supposed to do now?

There is something beautiful shining
In the hollow knot of your head
Funny, for a while it seemed
To come from the sky but it's in your head
Yes, it fills your head

You and I don't always fly
Let me down, I want to fall
Deep into the dark
But I'll come back to you

And I'll always know how to find you
'Cause you shine like the midnight sun

So Long Suicide[]

Rock-a-bye baby
It's time to break
Habits that you've faced
Sweet sorrow while the cherished dead

Blow in my mouth
Every breath I take
Although I need you
I don't want to bleed for you

So long suicide
Goin' right outta sight, outta mind
Leave me alone and abandoned

Hello, I'm alive
I'm lone and alive
And I know in my bones
I know what I'm good for

Hello I'm alive
I'm lone and alive
Yes I know, in my bones
I know what I'm doing

I stole the beauty
And taste the hurt
There's always time for pretty flowers
Growing in the dirt

But time is your needle
Into my heart
And I must be hollow
'Cause I can't follow there

So long suicide
Goin' right outta sight, outta mind
Leave me alone and abandoned

Hello, I'm alive
I'm lone and alive
And I know in my bones
I know what I'm good for

Hello I'm alive
I'm lone and alive
Yes I know, in my bones
I know what I'm doing

I'm scared of being ordinary
But I swear to live like anyone
And you know it's hard to make it
But a light goes on

And after all the crash and swell
We are just human

And after all is said and done
We're only human
You're out of sight and out of mind
I'm saying so long suicide

The half dream shape of yesterday
In bloom tomorrow

Undergoing Treatment[]

We are undergoing treatment
Watching others in the news
Studying our worst reviews

They say we'll get over it
Disappear like dinosaurs
To the sound of sole applause

Designed to make us special

If you see me walking in the garden
Don't ever ask me for an autograph
If you ever catch me in the arcade
Don't even stop me for a photograph

We are undergoing treatment
Till our ethic fits the scene
Laid out in Q Magazine

They crave our conformity
Mediocre to the bone
Terrified testosterone

But why do we still face the music

If you see me walking in the garden
Don't ever ask me for an autograph

Now and then you get the strangest notion
That there's something missing
But it keeps you guessing

Wild ambition can you really blame us?
Can you entertain us?
Can you give a little more?

If you see me walking in the garden
Don't ever ask me for an autograph
If you ever catch me in the arcade
Don't even stop me for a photograph

We are undergoing treatment
But will the doctors ever cure
These delusions of grandeur?

Ball and Chain[]

Early Morning
As the day is dawning
You're street gutter crawling
When the sun comes up

Baby Crying
Says today she's dying
But she's always lying
And that's a ball'n'chain

You got the ball'n'chain
You're in the ball'n'chain gang
Coz you're the ball'n'chain man

Bruises for breakfast
Ain't nobody's business
But pain's a lonely mistress
And you can't give up
(That's a ball'n'chain)

Flame burning
Money that you're earning
And you will be returning
With a ball'n'chain

(chorus)

Why do you love me
When you don't need me
Why do you want me all of the time ?
In my whole life, didn't get no peacetime
And I don't care if I live or die

(that's a ball'n'chain)

You got the ball'n'chain
You got the ball'n'chain
You got the ball'n'chain
You got the ball'n'chain
You got the ball'n'chain
You got the ball'n'chain
You got the ball'n'chain

You got the Ball'n'Chain
You're the one to blame
You got to love that pain

Sinner or Saint[]

Step on for the ride,
Right now, you know that is the place to be
To watch humankind
stumble into another century
Techno prisoners,
Their sure are giving you the runaround
Violance on your mind,
Cus your attention is the battleground

What are you?
A sinner or saint
You gotta be
A sinner or saint

Ice cool war voyeurs
Straight up, I guarantee you're gonna get
All that you deserve,
Sit down, plug in, you ain't seen nothin yet

(chorus)
Do you know?
That is your fate
You´re gonna be
A sinner or saint

Some poeple love too fast
Some people live too long
And so I've got to ask
Do you know right from wrong?
Mr. Templar, will you ever really be a Saint...

Still on for the ride,
Who cares if you lose or win
They can't bleed you dry,
When you're a-pumping the adrenelin

(chorus)
Do you know?
It's never too late
You´re gonna be
A sinner or saint..
