You're Lost Little Girl

You're lost little girl
You're lost little girl
You're lost
Tell me who
Are you? 

I think that you know what to do
Impossible? 
Yes, but it's true
I think that you know what to do, girl
I'm sure that you know what to do

You're lost little girl
You're lost little girl
You're lost

 

The Passenger

I am the passenger
And I ride and I ride
I ride through the city's backside
I see the stars come out of the sky
Yeah the bright and hollow sky
You know it looks so good tonight

I am the passenger
I stay under glass
I look through my window so bright
I see the stars come out tonight
I see the bright and hollow sky
Over the city's ripped backside
And everything looks good tonight
Singing... 

Get into the car
We'll be the passenger
We'll ride through the city tonight
We'll see the city's ripped backsides
We'll see the bright and hollow sky
we'll see the stars that shine so bright
Stars made for us tonight

O, the passenger
How how he rides
O, the passenger
He rides and he rides
He looks through his window
What does he see
He sees the sign and hollow sky
He sees the stars come out tonight
He sees the city's ripped backsides
He sees the winding ocean drive
And everything was made for you and me
All of it was made for you and me 
Cos it just belongs to you and me
So lets take a ride and see what's mine
Singing...

O the passenger
He rides and he rides
He sees things from under glass
He looks through his window side
He sees things he knows are his
He sees the bright and hollow sky
He sees the city sleep at night
He sees the stars are out tonight
And all of it is yours and mine
And all of it is yours and mine
So lets ride and ride and ride and ride
Singing...

 

Gun

Me and my partner we work on the run
The quick try to get quicker
And the creepers get hung
Now it's you that got wasted tonight on the job
One lost his liquor
And the other lost his head 

Ten sticky thumb prints on the door and the sink
But nothin' saw nothin' - just smelt' the stink
Five hundred mugshots and a hundred to one
Four forgotten and the rest just won't come 

When you've begun to think like a gun
The rest of the year has already gone
When you've begun to think like a gun
The days of the year have suddenly gone. 

Blood on the windows and blood on the walls
Blood on the ceiling and down in the halls
And the papers keep pounding on everything I burned
And the people getting restless but they'll never learn 

I picked up a doctor - he's good with a knife
Says anaesthetic's a waste of his time
Works in a hurry but always worthwhile
Knows they won't be back for a long long time 

Top of the staircase was ready to fall
We were still waiting downstairs in the hall
Watch out for big mama, she'll set you on fire
Or go for your neck with the chicken wire 

When you've begun to think like a gun
The days of the year have suddenly gone
Once you've begun to think like a gun
The days of the year have already gone 

Mother of plenty, mother of none
You've got me cornered and still on the run
I don't care nothing 'bout you anyway
Stuck in this hole I'm well on my way 

When you've begun to live like a gun
The days of the year have already gone
When you've begun to think like a gun
The days of the year have suddenly gone

 

Sea Breezes

I've been thinking now for a long time
How to go my own separate way
It's a shame to think about yesterday... a shame

We've been running round in our present state
Hoping help would come from above
But even angels there make the same mistakes in love

Now that we are lonely
Life seems to get hard
Alone what a word lonely
Alone it makes me cry
Thought-train set in motion
Wheels in and around
Express our emotion
Tracks up then it cracks down

L'album des reprises. Que des reprises, toutes plus réussies les unes que les autres. Les Banshees prouvent encore leur talent en se les appropriant complètement. Un choix d'artistes et de titres ecclectique et interressant, les Sparks, Kraftwerk, Disney's Jungle book, Bob Dylan, Billie Holiday, The Doors, Iggy Pop, John Cale, Roxy Music, Television.Un très bel album, trop court, à l'ambiance changeante,du drame au mystère, en passant par l'energie.
