"Paint Work" lyrics
"Paint Work"
We go two, twice all the way round those things
Two high ones, two low ones, yeah
Right man
Man stopped us at corner
He had a bloody nose
And then he opened his denim jacket
It was under his vest made out of tracing paper
Chest scars portrayed Aztec life in his horrible
Formation really late
Main sequence stars were no good for making carbon in this way
Red giant stars
Disfigured in a lady, tedious
Was over accountant's and on business
Then I woke up and I decided to recommence my diary
Then I read Paula Yates on vision mopeds
Then I found out we were not going to Italy
Later Mam said 'Those continentals are little monkeys'
And yesterday we had liver and sausage over
And sometimes they say 'Hey Mark you're spoiling all the paintwork'
And sometimes they say 'Your thumbprints are on the paintwork'
Distractors, post-doctors behind come in
Dressed in suits, grow talons
Everyone clenched plaits horror
And sometimes they say...
And sometimes I feel like saying
This is bloody Newark
Or some drive-in slap place
In Breda and in Cologne
With the shirt (on/off?)
Sun in vicinity
As if I hadn't done 10 month's service
In the USA
On media guts
It circles is where I start
And sometimes they say...
And I think
If I'd wanted to live in Holland
And if I'd wanted to be lived in
I'd have packed up and pissed off
When I was 16
A [?] this lousy business
Was the last thing I was ever imagining
Hey Mark, why can't I live in England?
(The end of shoes, all warehouse shoe/you've got
Cheap new one, the target is too yahoo
And take over all the desparate
I'll take over discussion and
...humanely regular colours over...
...engineered oxidate zeppelin
Old world style, old man only juke box caught
All power jets on... spectacular facets)
And sometimes they say...
Hey, you're fucking up the paintwork
What is this thing they're so hard-assed about?
I thought I lived in England

Big Star - "The Ballad Of El Goodo" Years ago, my heart was set to live, oh
And I've been trying hard against unbelievable odds
It gets so hard in times like now to hold on
But guns they wait to be stuck by, at my side is God

Meat Puppets - "Up On The Sun" A long time ago
I turned to myself
And said you, you are my daughter
I saw that the image
I saw there was well
So you are my daughter
Well then maybe we've got
Something to talk about
Who told you...
Galaxie 500 - "Strange" Why's everybody acting funny?
Why's everybody look so strange?
Why's everybody look so nasty?
What do I want with all these things?
I went alone down to the drugstore
I went in back and took a Coke...
Sonic Youth - "Superstar" Long ago
And oh so far away
I fell in love with you
Before the second show
Your guitar
It sounds so sweet and clear
But you're not really there
It's just the radio
Don't you remember you told me you...
Suicide - "Surrender" When you take me
Or when you may
(I'll find for you) I'll fall for you
Time is a good muse
Of never knowing
About you (About you)
I surrender
I surrender
To you
(I surrender)
I surrender
I...
