You're One 02:57
If you see hares across the moon And swallows fly out of the sun And silver fish between the stars You're one... And if you were the girl at school Who loved lipstick and loud guitars Who thought the trendies were uncool You're one... That's why we are sisters We Made it all alone out there Girls like us don't belong Don't belong anywhere If you were pushed over the edge and loved the place you found out there and if you swim against the tide You're one... If you have loved if you have craved Whispered your sorrow to the clouds When everyone thought you insane You're one... That's why we are sisters We Made it all alone out there Girls like us don't belong Don't belong anywhere

When they moved from Turkey, Her mum said to her, "Julie, you can take your best toys, But you can't take your hamster", "Screw that", Julie Thought, "That is pretty lame, I don't care cause Lucifer, Is going on that plane" WooooOOOoooo So she's at check in, Looking innocent, Putting a cute face on, For the Customs Officer Whilst behind his back, On the x-ray screen, Lucifer the Hamster, Is being smuggled in WoooooOOoooo On the way to Blighty, No Quarantine, You might think that she was reckless, But she was only thirteen, This was the first time, Julie broke the law, And not the last time, As we already know, On a more serious note, we'd like to remind you that the penalty for smuggling an animal illegally into the UK is a thousand pound fine, a criminal record and the animal still has to be quarantined or destroyed... Taking Lucifer the Hamster legally from Turkey to Britain would have cost Julie mum about 300 quid....for a hamster... Isn't that just total day light robbery?! WoooooOOOOooo

Hate Parades 03:24
Life's sublime, Living without you, The days are mine, and I won't let go... Like a bird, I am free and I'm flying, away from you, Got called up, With a message of some bad news, Lost my job, At least the bills have been paid. Seven years, Is a long time to be sentenced, To hate parades. And my heart's no longer warming, For the sighs you are repressing, Makes no difference to me, cause I am free, I am free Got a top, With a scarlet "A" upon it, I'm growing wings, Of the demoness kind, Lilith dreams, In a tree outside the punk club, Away from you... Another day, Vindictiveness in the office, My mind wanders, To when the loud music starts, Seven years, Is a long time to be sentenced To hate parades
7.
Isobel 03:49
Isobel the endless summer, Is the slow poison that kills her, Silent meadows empty laughter, Nothing to look for you'd rather, Fade away, fade away, fade away, Into the hills where the great oaks sway, Fade away fade away fade away, Into the dawn on the longest day, You dream of the hollow hills, From a place where life stands still, You know the storm that's coming, Will put an end to your longing, Fade away, fade away, fade away, Into the hills where the great oaks sway, Fade away fade away fade away, Into the dawn on the longest day, Bare breasted under the stars, She knows she's not the perfect bride, Fills the hole in her broken heart, With secret songs and ancient rites, So she sings when no one is listening, She dances where no one is standing, In the halls of the faery Queen, She got so drunk, She smashed her wings Fade away, fade away, fade away, Into the hills where the great oaks sway, Fade away fade away fade away, Into the dawn on the longest day, She left a broom in her husband's bed, A stupid prank a last farewell, Then she spat at the Church Elders, One day your God will be forgotten, Isobel lived for her truth, And she paid the highest price, And around her graceful neck, The rope has left purple marks, Now fade away, fade away, fade away, Into the hills where the great oaks sway, Fade away, fade away, fade away, Into the dawn on the longest day, They buried her at the crossroads, Like the shameless witch that she was, Free to roam in the faery land, No more a slave to the world of men, Fade away, fade away, fade away, Into the hills where the great oaks sway, Fade away, fade away, fade away, Into the dawn on the longest day, 1,2 give the Devil his due, 3,4 sail me to the shore, 5,6 on the river Styx, 7,8 and through the Gate, Fade away Fade away

She's like a firebrand in your model house, She'll set your sheets ablaze and take over the lounge, She'll fill your hungry mouth when you are starving, She loves everybody, punk rock and dirty, She'll raise eyebrows and she'll piss off your wife, Leave the bathroom in a big cocaine cloud, Trace in lipstick a seven pointed star, She'll destroy the stage and she'll break her guitar, Somebody's rise is somebody's fall, Somebody's bride is somebody's whore, She'll drive your car on Highway 156, She's the one who never dies when it all crashes, Always the mistress never the bride, She's drunk at the wheel but you really don't mind. Somebody's rise is somebody's fall, Somebody's bride is somebody's whore, Somebody's child, Somebody's ghost, Somebody's bride, Somebody's whore

'Twas un-provoked That stupid joke Think it's funny It is dreary You sound like a douche sound like a douche sound like a douche to me Think lil punkettes Are easy targets We're not bashful We're a handful You sound like a douche sound like a douche sound like a douche to me Mess with the knives We'll shag your wife Drink all your booze Give you abuse You sound like a douche sound like a douche sound like a douche to me But hey people He's a far nicer pagan When he is pissed You sound like a douche sound like a douche sound like a douche to me

No one will remember your name, Sell oranges on Drury Lane, When angry mobs knock at your door, Say you're the French Catholic Whore! She worries she'll end up being, Another lady in waiting, First Lady of the Bed Chamber, In the Shadow of the Queen Mother She knows... Mistresses always end the same, Your love will never speak its name, In the the end we're all on the game, You, me, her, My Lady Castlemaine, Took her broken heart to A&E, Got to heaven's gate but they'd lost the keys, So she cut short all her pretty hair, She lives in the cupboard under the stairs, She knows... Mistresses always end the same, Your love will never speak its name, In the the end we're all on the game, You, me, her, My Lady Castlemaine, For every OD, there was a high, What you gonna do for the rest of your life? Pine away for what could have been, Or own at last the flesh you're in ? She knows... Mistresses always end the same, Your love will never speak its name, In the the end we're all on the game, You, me, her, My Lady Castlemaine,

Rage 02:56
Outside the world of Men Where Nature derails I am the sea horse, The moth in the flame, The mermaid, the siren, The she-wolf in heat, I am the ugly Witch, I am the evil Queen, Rage, Woman is, Rage, And from Apple to Snake. From the gallows to the stake. I am the Gaping Hole, The terror of Church and State, I could see through the lies, In your fairy tales, I burnt your Holy Books. Full of abuse and shame. Rage, Woman is, Rage, We're the unusable, We are the eye-sore, We're the unloveable, The apostate whores, We are the open gate, To this imperfect world, We're the harlots you hate, The witches who won't burn, Rage, Woman is, Rage,

Yeah she s got a black dress on , And I'm all clad in white, She says that she loves our band, But she thinks we sound Shite, Arm stretched out towards my face, Her pretty pistol's out, Steel cold eyes meeting my gaze, We're ready for a fight, Ooooh For a fight She's got a Luger gun smile, She's got blue Valkyrie eyes, Nemesister, I like you, Am I wrong or am I right? You are the Doppelganger stepping inside my stride, Cos we got the same disease and there is no known cure, It's to the last one standing, of that, lady I'm sure Now, it's to the last She's got a Luger gun smile, She's got blue Valkyrie eyes, I got my Crimson banner, Floating above this town, Lurid like ruby lips, Like the blood in your mouth, There is no desecration, I don't already know, I got my best battle scars in the War of the Rose. Now it's for the cause, She's got a Luger gun smile, she's got blue Valkyrie eyes, I've got a Panzer like stride, I too got Valkyrie eyes,

And as above and so below A star for every city light The space in between means as much As their silver distant shine Through the Night on a Train of Stars Walk in Beauty Lioness Ride your Beast out of its mind Give me the violent caress Of your catastrophic eyes Through the Night on a Train of Stars Its Seven Heads are weaving songs To the strings of a girl's guitar They whisper words for me to sing Tales of Lust and tales of War Through the Night on a Train of Stars And you can all go to Heaven In a neat 2 piece-suit line I will bathe in the blood of Saints Like a 20s burlesque star
