 (by Heather Phares)

Bath, England's singer/composer/keyboardist Allison Goldfrapp began exploring music as a part of her studies as a Fine Art Painting major at Middlesex University, mixing sound, visuals, and performances in her installation pieces. While she was still in college, she appeared on her friend Tricky's 1995 debut Maxinquaye, which led to appearances on albums from other cutting-edge electronic artists, including Orbital's Snivilisation and Add N to X's Avant Hard. By the late '90s, Goldfrapp began honing her own compositions; one of her friends passed some of her demos on to composer Will Gregory. Finding much in common in their musical tastes and approaches, the duo took Allison's surname as the name for their collaboration. After signing to Mute in 1999, Goldfrapp delivered their debut album, Felt Mountain, in fall 2000. Felt Mountain went on to nealry universal acclaim and spawned several singles, including the Utopia Genetically Enriched EP, which arrived in early 2001. After spending most of that year touring, Goldfrapp spent most of 2002 recording and returned with Black Cherry in spring 2003. 2005 saw the release of the Ooh La La single and the full-length Supernature, both of which continued the disco and glam-rock influences of the duo's previous album.

Felt mountain

Lovely head

  Starts in my belly
Then up to my heart
Into my mouth
I can't keep it shut
Do you recognise
The smell, is that how you tell us apart

I fool myself
To sleep and dream
Nobody is here
No-one but me
So cool
You're hardly there
Why cant this
Be killing you

Frankenstein would want your mind
Your lovely head
Your lovely head

Your lovely head

*** Thanx a lot to Alfred & Gavin for this one ***

Paper bag

No time to fuck
But you like the rush
Where would we be
Without sums, deals we make

Brown paper bag
Makes for a hat
When it rains on your head mate
Cheers for that
When the world stops for snow
When you laugh I'm inside
Your mouth

Sucking the sun
Baboons and birds
With the weight of you deer
I forgot

Brown paper bag
Makes for a hat
When it rains on your head mate
Cheers for that
When the world stops for snow
When you laugh I'm inside
Your mouth

Oh just go dear
Feels a tear

When you laugh I'm inside
Your mouth

*** Thanx a lot to Alfred & Jessica & Gavin for this one ***

Human

They fall
From your mouth
Propelled by your belly
And your tongue
I shiver when you shake
And I fold into jelly
I think I loved you more than me

Are you human
Or a dud
Are you human
Or`d you make it up

My baby cherry slipped
Pass me through your
Fingertips
Throw me down
Like an old rag
I'm not standing
Don't look back

Are you human
Or a dog
Are you human
Or`d you make it up
Are you human
Or a dog
Are you human
Or`d you make it up

They went searching for your body
They went looking but there's nobody
Who smells like you
Who looks like you
You're not human....too

Are you human
Or a dud
Are you human
Or`d you make it up
Are you human
Or a dog
Are you human
Or`d you make it up

Are you human

*** Thanx a lot to Alfred & Gavin for this one ***

Pilots

  Armoured cars sail the sky
They're pink at dawn
If I lived
Forever, you just wouldn't be
So beautiful
As the sun
When it shines
All over the world

We're pilots watching stars
The world pre-occupied
We're pilots watching stars
Who do we think we are

Ice and clouds
Shimmer outside
Rain just falls
At magic hour
It's just the sound
Of you and me
Time twitching
Murmurs of
Our friendly machine

We're pilots watching stars
The world pre-occupied
We're pilots watching stars
Who do we think we are
Yes, who do.....

There's just the sound
Of you and me

*** Thanx a lot to Alfred & Gavin for this one ***

Deer stop

And I long to go
Love started. Here
Shoot your star
Be a light
Is that

Don't you call
Deer stop bottle in a shell
Shoot a thousand stars over me
Love to come home
You've arrested a knight

Say my name,
Whisper it
Don't ever turn
I'm deliciously wired
I'm falling in a cloud
Shoot a thousand stars over
Say my name
Whisper it

*** Thanx a lot to Alfred & Gavin for this one ***

Utopia

It's a strange day
No colours or shapes
No sound in my head
I forget who I am
When I'm with you
There's no reason
There's no sense
I'm not supposed
To feel
I forget who I am
I forget
Fascist baby
Utopia, utopia

My dog needs new ears
Make his eyes
See forever
Make him live
Like me
Again and again

Fascist baby
Utopia, utopia

I'm wired to the world
That's how I know everything
I'm superbrain
That's how they made me

Fascist baby
Utopia, utopia

*** Thanx a lot to Alfred & Gavin for this one ***

Horse tears

Night has fallen
Mute and cold
My horse is crying

But you know there is time
But you know there is time
But you'll never learn
Keep you safe

Dare to come
But you love me still
But you'll never learn
Tears to come

La la la la la la
La la la la la la

You have dammed me
But you're the one
That you're forever
And they stare

But you know
That there's strength
And you love a knight
Who stewed out those tears

Years to come
But you love the tears
And you love the tears

La la la la la la
La la la la la la
La la la la la la
La la la la la la
La la la la la la

*** A great big Thanx to Robin & Sarah & Gavin for this one ***

Black Cherry

Crystalline Green

Here we come
Driving down
Deep and wide
Settle down
On the beach
Get the sun
Coming down
Wet and warm

Turn it down
Settle down
On the beach
Get the sun
On the down
Jealous day
You can lounge
Turn it down

I wanna waste it playing
Spend all our day in a dream
Crystalline Green watch it rolling
Feeling the weight of the sun

Here we come
Driving down
Deep and wide
Blue and green
Breathing in
Come alive
Here we come with the stars

Letting it slip through my fingers
Little rings float in your eyes
Try forget who are you now
Stare into space, watch the sky

*** Thanx a lot to HappyTragic & Gavin for this one ***

Black Cherry

How can it be
I can taste you now
How can I see
When you're everything

All the world in one grain of sand
And I've blown it
All my world in one grain of sand
And you own it

Black cherry
Black cherry stone

Hearing you say it

Trembling star

All the world in one grain of sand
And I've blown it
All my world in one grain of sand
And you own it

Deep Honey

Your wild lies
Always start with wide, white lines
Summer shine
Your wild lies always start with wide, white lines
Summer shine
You don't like the dark
Fringed by silver sea
Always brave and pert
Sunday sun, you're up
Keep. Don't stop now
Me and you
Your wild lies always start with me don't come
You don't like the dark
You don't like this star
Tears start
Sunday sun you're up

*** Thanx a lot to HappyTragic & Andreas & Gavin for this one ***

Hairy trees

You give me this love
You give me this love

Touch my garden
Rain clouds, mountains
Sunshine all day long

La la la la la la ....

Sunrise, meadows
Oceans, rainbows
Starlight, all day long

La la la la la la ....

Golden, new world
Rain clouds, mountains
Ride my pony
Ride him slowly
Smiling, all day long

You give me this love
You give me this love
You give me this love
You give me this love...

La la la la la la ....

*** Thanx a lot to Aaron & Gavin for this one ***

Twist

Before you go and leave this town
I want to see you one more time
Put your dirty angel face
Between my legs and knicker lace

Fight me, try me
Kiss me like you like me
Twist it around again and again
Twist it around again and again

I want to run away with you
Your caravan and rabbit stew
Don't buy me candyfloss or bears
Swarfega fingers I want you there

Fight me, try me
Kiss me like you like me
Twist it around again and again
Fight me, try me
Kiss me like you like me
Twist it around again and again
Twist it around again and again

Oh I love you honey

Ride me, try me
Kiss me like you like me
Twist it around again and again
Fight me, try me
Kiss me like you like me
Twist it around again and again
Twist it around again and again
Twist it around again and again

*** Thanx a lot to HappyTragic & Gavin for this one ***

Strict Machine

I get high on a buzz
Then a rush
When I'm plugged in you
I connect when I'm flush
You get love when told what to do
Wonderful electric
Wonderful electric
Wonderful electric
Cover me in you
I'm in love
I'm in love
I'm in love with a strict machine
When you send me a pulse
Feel a wave of new love through me
I'm dressed in white noise
You know just what I want so please
Wonderful electric
Wonderful electric
Wonderful electric
Cover me in you
I'm in love
I'm in love
I'm in love with strict machine
I'm in love
I'm in love
I'm in love with your strict machine

I'm in love with a strict machine

Forever

Here I wanna be a stranger
Drift in and out
Just linger
Slow motion
You fall
Like a blossom
Way out there
On a star
Nova lazy
Life, love
Just to
Life, love
Love life
Write it down
But don't send the letter
When it shines its forever
Here I wanna be a stranger
Way out there on a star
Nova lazy
Life, love
Just to
Life, love
Love life
Just don't leave me here
Just don't leave me here

Ooh La La

Dial up my number now
Weaving it through the wire

Switch me on
Turn me up
Don't want it Baudelaire
Just glitter lust
Switch me on
Turn me up
I want to touch you
You're just made for love

I need la la la la la la
I need ooh la la la la
I need la la la la la la
I need ooh la la la la...

Coils up and round me
Teasing your poetry
Switch me on
Turn me up
Oh child of Venus
You're just made for love

I need la la la la la la
I need ooh la la la la
I need la la la la la la
I need ooh la la la la...

You know I walk for days
I wanna waste some time
You wanna be so mean
You know I love to watch

I wanna love some more
It'll never be the same
A broken heel like a heart
I'll never walk again

Yeah!

I need la la la la la la
I need ooh la la la la
I need la la la la la la
I need ooh la la la la...

*** Thanx a lot to James & Lovely head for this one ***

Lovely 2 C U

A wonderful place to be
The birds are singing
The dreams that are sent to me
Everyone's waving

But there's no noises
The smell of your skin
The glittering lights of Hell
I'm missing sin

La Lovely 2 See U
La Lovely 2 See U

I wanna get out of here
Inhale your sky
A beautiful place to be
So I don't know why
They're selling us something
I don't need
They're selling us something, babe
You shouldn't believe

Ride a white horse

Now take me dancing
At the Disco
Where you buy your
Winniebago
I wanna ride on a white horse
I want to ride on a white horse

When the light turns into darkness
Will he turn up to explain us?
I wanna ride on a white horse
I want to ride on a white horse

Lend me a whole new world
All night
Feel life
When is there ever sense
To love
This world

In the whirlpool
We'll go deeper
In this world that's
Getting cheaper
I wanna ride on a white horse
I want to ride on a white horse

I like dancing
At the disco
I want blisters
You're my leader
I wanna ride on a white horse
I want to ride on a white horse

Oh I love this feeling
Feels like forever
Oh I love this feeling
Feels like real
Leather

U Never Know

How long now
I love you
Steel painted eyes
Feels like snow
Change my head
Days so long

You never know
You never know
You never know
Just how long
It will be
Here we go again
We're going round and round
Here we go again
We're going round and round

Today I know
It's too long dare
We'll see
Feels like snow
Chained myself to me
How long now
Longest story

Let it take you

They sail light, ocean
Sail this night, ocean
Filling my sleep so gently

Just let it take you
Just let it steer

They sail light, ocean
Sail this night, ocean
Shimmer like gold,
They're singing
Filling my sleep so gently

Just let it take you
Just let it steer
Just let it take you
This is easy

Fly me away

Drifting out of time
Something on your mind
And I wanna be the
One that you call
When you get down
No matter where you
Are in the world I'll be around

Fly me away on an Aeroplane
High in the sky
Wanna see you again
Wanna know this time,
Gonna tell you what I'm feeling
Gonna know this time,
Gonna get it back that feeling

Miles and miles of sun
Endless roads
twist on
Don't wanna live a life
In a world that's all the same
The crazy little things
That you do are magical

This crazy life
This crazy world
We're living in is
Magical

Slide in

You send me just colours
I'm waiting, don't hold back
Trees bow to the wind
And I'm falling inside you

Slide in
Feel the future
Rushing Slowly
Right now

So close I could
touch it
I'm dreaming
Don't wake up

Slide in
Feel the future
Rushing slowly
Light now

Nothing makes me
Feel like
Show me real love
Right now

Koko

Sharp as teeth and stars
I can't give you up
Like a moth to light
Move like caramel
Til dawn
You glow

Soon be nothing of this world
Soon be nothing

Breathe back into life
Stabs at happiness
Now we're having fun
Hold tight, don't look down
Til dawn
You glow

Satin Chic

You're so satin chic
Look rich, talking cheap
On your telephone
Won't be coming home

He's my man
Yeah he's my man
You don't understand

Ne Na Na Na Na Na Na

Dressed up lizard green
Celluloid seventeen
Lip gloss bold as blood
You got em linin' up

Racing through the stars
You killed me awhile
My smile synchronized
For every one tonight

Time Out From The World

Breathing in your sip of gold
I follow all your little lines
I like to watch a thousand times
I want to feel you here
I like to watch a thousands times
I make a shrine for you

Time out from the world
Leaving it all
Just for a day
You like there's a down
Hold me and round
Take us a day?

Here I go, I'm going back
On every world you ever said
I'm dreaming of another time
Yesterday my alibi
We changed the world, just you and I
I make a shrine for you

Number 1

Walk out into velvet
Nothing more to say
You're my favourite moment
You're my Saturday

Cos you're my Number 1
I'm like a dog to get you
I want it up and on
I'm like a dog to get you

Sunset only seconds
Just ripe then it's gone
Got no new intentions
Just right then it's gone

Cos you're my Number 1
I'm like a dog to get you
I want it up and on
I'm like a dog to get you

I'll be there to meet you
Getting down to greet you
Howl under the moon

Beautiful

Magic maker, wish me one wish
Hold me to your light and maybe

Oh what if I say
Why don't we play
I'll wear your star

I shiver, you shake it
To me I can't help it
Don't know, am I dreaming
Or have you, you haven't

Stop for awhile
Why don't we play
I'll wear your star

Oh, love make me
Oh, love tasted Beautiful
Oh, love make me
Oh, love tasted critical

Turn me onto your star
Show me
One night, slowly
Aching, make me

Oh, what if I say
Why don't we play
I'll wear your star.

I'm goin right under
Your spell has taken over
I'm feelin, your passion
Oh there's no need for
The place where i'll wait

Why don't we play
I'll wear your star

Oh, love make me
Oh, love tasted beautiful
Oh, love make me
Oh, love tasted critical

Turn me onto your star
Show me
One night, slowly
Aching, make me

Oh, what if I say
Why don't we play
I'll wear your star

Oh, love make me
Oh, love tasted beautiful
Oh, love make me
Oh, love tasted critical

Clowns

Only clowns would play with those balloons
What d'ya wanna look like Barbie for
Dear oh Lord, it's easy

Roasting, roasting, roasting deed
Mahagony
Titties that live on and on and on and on

Only clowns would play with those balloons
What d'ya wanna look like Barbie for
Dear oh Lord, it's easy

Only clowns would play with those balloons
Passive when I'm in record
Day and night I'm watching you

Roasting, roasting, roasting deed
Mahagony
Titties that live on and on and on and on

Only clowns would play with those balloons
What d'ya wanna look like Barbie for
Dear oh Lord, it's easy

Little Bird

She's like a little bird
She flies from a to b
To see what she can see
She's far away from me

We danced on the moon
We danced by the sea
That land of blue and gold
Is where we were free

July-ly-ly
July-ly-ly
July-ly-ly
Where we were free
Where we were free

The shiny blackest crow
Flew in to sail along
Though much to her surprise
He had two mouths for eyes

She understood his words
That crow was very pleased
He gave to her his wings
And now she is free

July-ly-ly
July-ly-ly
July-ly-ly
Now we are free
Now we are free

July-ly-ly
July-ly-ly
July-ly-ly

Road to somewhere

Walking down the Mercer street
Been a long hot summer
Rain like daggers coming down on me
Got a feeling it's too late
But alone together
Could be we might start it up all over again

Dream, dream
You're not too late
Sweet road
To somewhere else

Listen to the radio
Are you calling
Listen to the radio
Are you calling

Three o'clock I'm on my way
On the road to somewhere
Little clouds like wounds that blow away
Listening to the radio
Like a friend that guides me
Playing out every song
We used to know

Dream, dream
You're not too late
Sweet road
To somewhere else

Listen to the radio
Are you calling
Listen to the radio
Are you calling

Bring it on
Come along
On the road to somewhere
Take your time
See the signs
On the road to somewhere...

Eat yourself

If you don't eat yourself
No doubt the pain will instead
You could longer life
Seen it on this town (?)

You went south on the train
She wore plastic boots for rain
And you crawl along exhausted
When you dream in tears, call on me

Who will I be when I'm with you again
Silver jet in the sky
You are the pain
Got a song, got to sing
For life

If you don't eat yourself
No doubt the pain will instead
If you don't eat yourself
You will explode instead

Cause I love and love you so
When I know you don't love me
You wanted life, stay alone (?)
Get wicked, anymore

Who will I be when I'm with you again
Silver jet in the sky
You are the pain
Got a song, got to sing
For life

Some People

Some people kill for less
Some people find it hard to get dressed
Some people will
Ask how old I am

Some people living a life
Some people need more than a slice
But when it fades
When the glitter has gone

You know it
You owe it to yourself
You won't let it make you mad
It's already crazy

Oh we're lonely one mercedes down
The brighter lights and their smiles, their empty hands

Some people don't get much
Some people feel they're in touch
With spirit worlds, talking to you now

Some people just can't say
Some people just wanna play
They get a kick when it's all messed up

You know it
You owe it to yourself
You won't let it make you mad
It's already crazy

You know it
You owe it to yourself
You won't let it make you mad
It's already crazy

What you thought you'd lost was just mislaid
All the poems written in your skin

You know it
You owe it to yourself
You won't let it make you mad
It's already crazy

You know it
You owe it to yourself
You won't let it make you mad
It's already crazy

And what you thought you'd lost was just mislaid
And all the poems written in your skin

A & E

It's a blue, bright blue Saturday, hey hey
And the pain has started to slip away, hey hey

I'm in a backless dress
On a pastel ward that's shining
Think I want you still
But it may be pills at work

Do you really wanna know how I was dancing on the floor
I was trying to phone you when I'm crawling out that door
I'm amazed at you the things you say that you don't do
Why don't you ring

I was feeling lonely, feeling blue
Feeling like I needed you
Like I've woken up surrounded by me
A & E

It's a blue, bright blue Saturday, hey hey
And the pain has started to slip away, hey hey

I'm in a backless dress
On a pastel ward that's shining
Think I want you still
But it may be pills at work

How did I get to accident emergency
All I wanted was you to take me out high

I was feeling lonely, feeling blue
Feeling like I needed you
Like I hoped you'd call and hoped you'd see me

Cologne Cerrone Houdini

Moments of perfection
Idle in the sunshine
Over there in yonder
In another world

I’m not your kind
I’m not your girl
Dreams we had seemed bright (?)
And passed the time

Cologne cerrone, cerrone Houdini
Cerrone Houdini
Cologne cerrone, cerrone Houdini
Cerrone Houdini

Sunlight in your eyes
Driving over state side
Left the smoke behind us

Could we be together
In another world

I’m not your kind
I’m not your girl
See I’m in your car
But not your life

Cologne cerrone, cerrone Houdini
Cerrone Houdini
Cologne cerrone, cerrone Houdini
Cerrone Houdini

Sunlight in your eyes
Sunlight in our eyes
Like diamonds in your hair

Caravan Girl

What is her name
That caravan girl

A hazy day
What is her name

We're just talking
Like there's something
Like you know
Domino, domino

Wanna run away, oh run away you and me
Yeah get away and bring it all back
Wanna run away, oh run away you and me
Yeah get away and bring it all back

Barefoot and game
That stranger on the hill
What is her name

You were like the sun
A lazy day
Have you no name

Don't stop talking
There's just something
Like you know
I’d like to know

Should I stay
Or should I go
It's a long, wrong way to go
But I won't deny
Yeah I won’t be shy

Wanna run away, oh run away you and me
Yeah get away and bring it all back
Wanna run away, oh run away you and me
Yeah get away and bring it all back

Wanna run away
Wanna run away
And bring it all back

Wanna runaway
Wanna runaway
And bring it all back...

Monster love

I never thought I would return
To be consumed by you again
Think you're cured
You'd see it come
The folly of a monster love like you

Grey is good
The light is good
We went down to Hollywood
You only get one chance in Tinsel Town

I save the part
The sweetest part
Shook for you

Everything comes around
Bringing us back again
Here is when we start
And where we end

I never thought I would return
To be consumed by you again
But I know a papermoon
The folly of a monster love like you

The pavement smell just after rain
The sun leaps out, it's clear again
I told you how I felt the earth could move
The folly of a monster love like you

Everything comes around
Bringing us back again
Here is when we start
And where we end

Everything comes around
Bringing us back again
Here is when we start
And where we end...

All Night Operator Part 1

( Ooh La La CD single )

Here, in my head,
It’s what you said
That breaks me down,
All alone,
Wanna die.

Armed with a kiss,
A little shine’s
Left on your face.
Unresolved,
One more time.

I’m your all night Operator,
I’ll connect you to the other side.

Summer nights,
And you die,
Summer nights,
Dialling in your sleep.

Here, in my head,
It’s what you said
That breaks me down.
All alone,
Wanna die.

I’m your all night Operator,
I’ll connect you to the other side.

Summer nights,
And you die,
Summer nights,
Dialling in your sleep.

Summer nights,
You come to me,
Summer nights,
Coming with the sun.

Big Black Cloud, Little White Lie

( Train EP B-Side )

Big black cloud
Little white lie
Never pay
Sit and hear it fall
La la la
You were hardly pure
Right there

Big black cloud
Little white lie
Never pay
Sit and hear it fall
La la la
You were hardly pure
Right there

Tears start over
Tears start over

Big black cloud
Little white lie
Never pay
Sit and hear it fall
La la la
You were hardly pure
Right there

Boys will be boys

(Satin Boys, Flaming Chic (7"), 2006)

I've had nights I will never forget
I've had nights I will always regret
But I can take it on the chin and say
Boys will be boys
 
There's been girls that have stolen our hearts
But their arms couldn't simply be prized apart
They will never never let us in and say
Boys will be boys

Boys will be boys
We cheat and we lie
Boys will be boys

I've had nights I will never forget
I've had nights I will always regret
They will never let us in and say
Boys will be boys

Boys will be boys
We cheat and we lie
Boys will be boys
Boys will be boys

Face Me

( Plaid / hidden track / Rest Proof Clockwork LP )

Oh yes
My friend
I'm here
I'm here
I'm here

Didn't I say that would be
Didn't I say that would be here

And now there's so little chance of escape
And now there's so little chance of escape
Of escape

Face me
Face me
Face me
I'm getting over
Face me
It's growing old
Face me
Face me
Face me
Face me
Face me

Fondue Knight

( Unreleased Felt Mountain b-side )

A fondue knight
On a winters day
I do in snow
In summer rain
Don’t let it go
Don’t blow away
This could so sweet
On a different day
Those umbrellas in the sea
And they tremble like a distant star
They are for plays
Waiting for you
Feel so small
Underneath this sky
This dirty pornstar
Isnt big enough
Don’t let it go
Don’t blow away
This could be so sweet
On a different day
Those umbrellas in the sea
And they tremble like a distant star
They are folding
Just for you

*** Thanx a lot to Gavin for this one ***

Little death

( Unreleased live Felt Mountain b-side )

Don't let this love
Own me completely
You know how love does sometimes

Black satin tears
Rule the night
Just to be
But you'll never here to dream

You're blind
But your blind as always

If I confess
Will it break the spell
My mind is full of you that’s all

A little death
Occurred so sweetly
My mind will leave this world without you

Sing the sun, sublime
You’re my state of mind

You always
You will love to admit

Little death
I'll give you just a dime
Little death
I'll give you everything
Little death
I'll give you everything

*** Thanx a lot to Gavin for this one ***

San Simeon

( Bryan Ferry feat. Goldfrapp / Frantic LP )

Walk up the driveway
Endlessly curving
Go through the front door
It's so inviting
Baronial Great Hall
Once so exciting
Haunted by shadows
Faces in hiding

Chair by the fire
I feel a tremor
Silent reminder
You used to be there
You are the princess
My wanders wake you
Fantasy playmate
Candle light lover

San Simeon
San Simeon

Teasing in French
Lace exotic promise
So undemanding
Yet understanding
Each wall a picture
Some of his best work
Delicate touches
They're simply charming

Coffee table culture
Full colour pages
Props archetypal
Floral arrangement
Stereogram cabinet
Walnut veneer
True reproduction
No one can hear

San Simeon
San Simeon

Tiger skin rug love
I stroke, you bite me
Executive leather
Upholstered tightly
In the next room
Cocktails at seven
Soft lights, sweet music
Lounge thru eleven

Just walk in the garden
French windows open
Patio paving
Concrete and crazy
Roses in blossom
They're doing well this year
Geranium pattern
Shrub topiary

Lie on my lush lawn
Waterfall burdens
Drink at my fountain
Forget all your troubles
Forget all your troubles
Forget all your troubles

San Simeon
San Simeon
San Simeon
San Simeon
San Simeon
San Simeon

Sartorius

(Unreleased Felt Mountain Live Track)

Armed with the kisses and money in their hands
Those girls on their heels sound like horses to me
Army is waiting to conquer the sundown
Blazes, the rain and the sun is at war

You open up the spiderweb and die
You're waking me this urgency you hide

Wind is a cycle that blows through the ocean
Blowing the rag giving birth to your dreams
Waiting but it's holding me down to this star
You were always the one to adore

You open up this spiderweb and die
You twist his words there's no sense to his verbs

It's been raining for years
It's been raining for years

You're waking me, this urgency you hide
You're every time I wake, you see me hide
Just don’t trick me
Just don’t trick me
Just don’t stop here

It's been raining for years
It's been raining for years
It's been raining for years
It's been raining for years

The Time Of The Turning (Reprise)

( Peter Gabriel / Ovo LP / vocals: Goldfrapp )

Did you see it move
There's something there
It's in this very cloth that I weave
In the most peculiar ways that we behave

It's the time of the turning and the old world's falling
Nothing you can do can stop the next emerging
The time of the turning and we'd better learn to say our goodbyes

It's the time of the turning and there's something stirring outside
If you stop for a moment you can feel it all slipping away
It's the time of the turning and the old world's falling
Nothing you can do can stop the next emerging
Time of the turning and we'd better learn to say our goodbyes

This Is The New Shit (Goldfrapp Remix)

(Marilyn Manson feat. Goldfrapp / This Is The New Shit EP)

Marilyn Manson :
Bitch
Bitch, bitch, bitch
Sex, sex, sex and don't forget the violence
Rebel, rebel, bitch, bitch, rebel
Rebel, rebel, bitch, bitch, rebel
Everybody sing along

Goldfrapp :
Everything has been said before
There's nothing left to say anymore
When it's all the same
You could ask for it by name

Marilyn Manson :
Babble, babble, bitch, bitch
Rebel, rebel, party, party
Sex, sex, sex, and don't forget the violence
Blah, blah, blah, got your lovey-dovey sad and lonely
Stick your stupid slogan in

Are you motherfuckers ready
For the new shit?
Stand up and admit
Tomorrow's never coming
This is the new shit
Stand up and admit
Do we get it? (no)
Do we want it? (yeah)
This is the new shit
Stand up and admit

Goldfrapp :
Babble, babble, bitch, bitch
Rebel, rebel, party, party
Sex, sex, sex, and don't forget the violence
Blah, blah, blah
Are you motherfuckers ready
For the new shit?

White Soft Rope

( Black Cherry B-Side )

Behind an endless rose and light
Well everybody knows
Trees are bowing to the wind
Theyre singing just for you
White soft rope
White soft rope
Handsome boy and girl
You taunted til it broke
Sun has eyes
And sea is clear
A generic world is clean
White soft rope
White soft rope
A sunny smile
A generic world is clean
A sunny smile
A generic world is clean
A sunny smile
A generic world is clean
A sunny smile
A generic world is clean
White soft rope
Is methin
White soft rope
White soft rope

Yes Sir

( Black Cherry B-Side )

Hey mister
Your eyes are full of hesitaiton
Make me wonder
What you're looking for
Maybe I want to know
Keep my reputation
And sensation
You try me once you beg for more

Yes sir
I can boogie
If you play a certain song
Yes sir
I can boogie
All night long

And I don’t know how
It will begin
I want to my everything we do
I don’t know how
Long I will stay
You just keep doing it your own way

Yes sir
I can boogie
If you stay you can go round
Yes sir
I can boogie
All night long
Yes sir
I can boogie
If you stay you can go round
Yes sir
I can boogie
All night long
Yes sir
Yes sir
Yes sir
I can boogie
Yes sir
