Old World Underground, Where Are You Now?
Album - 29 luglio 2003 - Debaser id 88291

Behold the fishnet slut tonight
Hustle Rose goes from limb to limb
Fingertip to painted lip she sways her way up to him
Says, “Now that your wallet is all lit up
Now that your wallet is all lit up
Now that your wallet is all lit up
Now that your wallet is all lit up
Now that your wallet is all lit up
Now that your wallet is all lit up
Now that your wallet is all lit up
Now that your wallet is all lit up
Now that your wallet is all lit up
You're gonna wanna wear it out”

If you're looking for something life-like
Hit a sardine nightclub
If every surface you touch is cold
Never go home
He says, “I can't feel a thing, my dreams are so tight
Why wouldn't I stand in line tonight?”

Now that your wallet is all lit up
Now that your wallet is all lit up
Now that your wallet is all lit up
You're gonna wanna wear it out
You're gonna wanna wear it out
(x2)

You could throw me a bone
If I get too close you wake me up
remind me softly to go
If I forget won't you wake me up
Remind me not to feel a thing
Keep the dream tight
I can't feel a thing
My dreams are so tight
Why wouldn't I stand in line tonight?

Lonesome for no one when
the room was empty and
war as we knew it was obsolete
Nothing could beat complete denial

All we do is talk, sit, switch screens
as the homeland plans enemies

All we do is talk, static and split screens
As the homeland plans enemies

Invasion's so succexy
so succexy
Invasion's so succexy
so succexy

Let's drink to the military
The glass is empty
Faces to fill and cars to feed
Nothing could beat complete denial

All we do is talk, sit, switch screens
As the homeland plans enemies

All we do is talk, static and split screens
As the homeland plans enemies

Invasion's so succexxy
so succexxy(so succexxy, so succexxy)
Invasion's so succexxy
so succexxy, (so succexxy, so succexxy)
Invasion's so succexxy
so succexxy, (so succexxy, so succexxy)
Invasion's so succexxy
so succexxy, (so succexxy, so succexxy)

passive attraction, programmed reaction
passive attraction, programmed reaction
action distraction, more information
flesh saturation, lips on a napkin
ass ass ass

where does the time go?
we're waking up so slowly
days are horizontal lately
out of body, watched from above
out of body, watched from above

passive attraction, programmed reaction
more information, cash masturbation
follow the pattern, the hemlines, the headlines
action distraction, faster than fashion
faster than fashion, faster than fashion

Lonesome for no one when
the room was empty and
war as we knew it was obsolete
Nothing could beat denial

we used to leave the blue lights on and there was a beat
ever since you have been gone it's all caffeine-free
faux punk fatigues
said it all before
they try to kick it, their feet fall asleep
get no harm done no
none of them want to fight me

combat baby come back baby
fight off the lethargy
don't go quietly
combat baby
said you would never give up easy
combat baby come back

get back in town I wanna paint it black
I wanna get around
easy living crowd so flat
said it all before
they try to kick it, their feet fall asleep
I want to be wrong but
No one here wants to fight me like you do

combat baby come back baby
fight off the lethargy
don't go quietly
combat baby
said you would never give up easy
combat baby come back

I try to be so nice
Compromise
Who gets it good?
Every mighty mild seventies child
Every mighty mild seventies child
Beats me

Do doo dooo
do doo dooo
do do dooo
do de do doo
do doo doo
do doo dooo
do do dooo
do de do doo

combat baby come back baby
combat baby come back
bye bye bye bye bye bye bye bye bye bye baby
combat baby come back

how I miss your ranting
do you miss my all time lows

I'm sick, you're tired
Let's dance
Break to love, make lust
I know it isn't
I'm sick, you're tired
Let's dance, dance, dance, dance
Cold as numbers but let's dance

As though it were easy for you to lead me
I could be passive gracefully

Half the horizon's gone
Skyline of numbers
Half the horizon's gone
Working the numbers
'Til I'm sick

Sleep don't pacify us until
Daybreak sky lights up the grid we live in
Dizzy when we talk so fast
Fields of numbers streaming past

I wish we were farmers
I wish we knew how to
Grow sweet potatoes and milk cows

I wish we were lovers
But it's for the best

Tonight your ghost will ask my ghost,
Where is the love?
Tonight your ghost will ask my ghost,
Who here is in line for a raise?
Tonight your ghost will ask my ghost,
Where is the love?
Tonight your ghost will ask my ghost,
Who put these bodies between us?

Falling for the creep,
The body leech,
Here he comes
Vicious, hypnosis,
Clenched fist sayin'
"It’s wrong to want more than a folk song"
Underneath the shaker knit,
He’s a brick wall
She keep fallin' for the trick,
Vegetariate, sing-along,
Give a little kick,
With your fine thigh high.

*Doo-doo-doo, We’re on to you.*
Tearin' her down,
Talkin' her down,
Under your breath,
Makin' a mess,
See she is happy
You wanna break it

*Doo-doo-doo, We’re on to you.*
Tearin' her down,
Talkin' her down,
Under your breath,
Makin' a mess,
See she is happy
You wanna break it

*Doo-doo-doo, We’re on to you.*
Your phony roots,
Borrowed guitar,
Tellin' her what to think we are
You the number one,
Wet blanket,
Hardly a day goes by you don’t try to break down,
No, I don’t buy it,
You’re still around I wonder why,
She just keep

Falling for the creep,
The body leech,
Here he comes
Vicious, hypnosis,
Clenched fist sayin'

Underneath the shaker knit,
He’s a brick wall
She keep fallin' for the creep,
The body leech,
Comin' on
Vicious hypnosis,
Clenched fist sayin'
"It’s wrong to want more than a folk song"
"I'm wrong to want more than a folk song"
"I'm wrong to want more than a folk song"

Under your breath,
Makin' a mess,

*Doo-doo-doo* we’re on to you
Your bathing suit,
Borrowed guitar,
Tellin' her what to think we are,
You the number one
Wet blanket,
You’re still around I wonder why,
You’re still around I wonder why,
You the number one wet blanket.

All dressed down to catch a whiff of the buzz
Smells like the death of the last great cause
But you & I we've been through that and that is not our fate
Give my face to the back of your head
Loyal in your shadow
Yeah yeah yeah
Broken accidental stars

Do lawyers have lawyers?
Do landlords have landlords? we're wondering
One more cheap suit in the loop, more chlorine in the pool
The blonde dolls smiling behind us
Say, one day you'll be just like us

All dressed up to catch a glimpse of the list
We've seen some success, it looks like a camero
Yeah yeah yeah
Broken accidental stars

Do lawyers have lawyers?
Do landlords have landlords? we're wondering
One more cheap suit in the loop, more chlorine in the pool
The blonde dolls smiling behind us
Say, one day you'll be just like us

Calling from the next hotel – can you put me on the list?
Who we are now we will always be- the best haircuts are taken

Calling from the next hotel – can you put me on the list?
Who we are now we will always be- the best haircuts are taken

Calling from the next hotel – can you put me on the list?
Who we are now we will always be- the best haircuts are taken

Calling from the next hotel – can you put me on the list?
Who we are now we will always be

Skip town. slow down
push it to the east coast
Step down turn around
push it to the west
Need less, use less
we're asking for too much I guess
Cause all we get is…

Dead disco
Dead funk
Dead rock and roll
Remodel
Everything has been done
La la la la la la la la la la

Tits out, pants down
Overnight to London
Touch down, look around
Everyone's the same
World wide, air tight
No one's got a face left to blame
And all we get is…

Dead disco
Dead funk
Dead rock and roll
Remodel
Everything has been done
La la la la la la la la la la

Dead disco
Dead funk
Dead rock and roll
Remodel
Everything has been done
La la la la la la la la la la

I know,
I know you tried to change things
I know you tried to change
I know
