After Murder Park

The Auteurs After Murder Park歌詞
1.Light Aircraft On Fire

When you cut your lover´s slack
You´ll get a fucking monster back
Information indiscreet-
It´s just an acrobatic trick
Disintergrates at 2000 feet
Vanishes into mercury
Light aircraft on fire

Tombestone queen victoria
Was an ex wing-walker
Everybody ignored her
Everybody implored her to-
Vainsh in to the radio
Disappear in the waveband slow
Light aircraft on fire

Disintergrate at 2000 feet
Disappear into mercury
There´s a dark premonition an accident will happen
Theres a pre-science preacher in the cabin
Everybody eat your dust
Everybody love your dust
Lifgt aircraft on fire


2.The Child Brides

When i first saw the child brides
Two bridegroom boys at their side
Genevieve in union with -holy communion
Marianne the younger wife

And the child brides
Went down to the water
Neptune calls out to his daughters
Throw yourself at the tide
I´ll see you on the other side

In a loveless marriage - when i was fourteen
All braised knees and black eyes
Then you come round here
With your fancy talk and big ideas
What have you done with our wives

Chorus

Bride of christ, bride of jesus
Bride of the fish when you´re fathoms down
And the uncles and the brother
With their sunday suits on
Search the village and towns
But the child brides etc.


3.Land Lovers

In a absement flat lying undercover
In a head full of height were a couple of lovers
I´ll buy you san-energy i´ll buy you a beer
Hotfoot it downtown
If you move i´ll shoot

Land lovers-
Terrified of the land
They are loved by the land
Lay unlimited/they are are limited by the land
They are shunned by the land

I believe that some of the brothers
Have been mixing it with land lovers

Well i heard your old man was a radio ham
Picking up signals from unoccupied lands
Government intelligence isn´t what it was
Put a bullet in his brain
When he picked up a doodle bug

Medicine men, went undercover,
Espionage viva, land lovers

Parasite to the state
Uber alles, uber hate
Bad moon, bad moon, leave the body in state

And they cut off your arms
And they cut off your legs
And they made you a target
For american bombers


4.New Brat In Town

New brat in town
New brat in town
Who´s been found
Counting aloud- when there´s a new brat
In town

Your precious things
Your precious dear
And a chat show host
Went and cut the throat
Of an off-shore engineer

Hey hey! yeah yeah!
Assumed a crucifix
Hey hey! yeah yeah!
You are the promper one

I´ll give you half an hour, make a phone call
Pack a suitcase, break your fingers
Shut the door and don´t be late
I give you half an hour
New brat in town - got the bully boys
Out and twenty pound of hate

She´s an acrobatic kid
High-flyer as a child
Been eaten alive - time after time
You´re doing fine


5.Everything You Say Will Destroy You

Well they sent back all the bodies
Who were looking really hopeless
Well it didn't seem that callous
Till they stopped you in your flow
She's surrounded by her wardens
And they're looking really nervous
All about the man from reuters
Here to nullify your glow

Everything you say will destroy you - anyway
Everything you say will come haunt you
Round each corner
Everything you say will destroy you

Well you may think that you're buddha
Lying on a mound of ashes
You were mentioned in the postscript of
Dispatches anyway
And the majors really nervous
When he's walking round the airport
You know your master's card is marked
Your upstart charge is cool and smart

Your unwanted suitor
Leaves his things around your home
He's marking out his territory
He's pissing on your ansaphone
Well you may think that you're buddha
Lying on a mound of ashes
You were mentioned in dispatches
In the postscript anyway


6.Unsolved Child Murder

People 'round here
Don't like to talk about it
Presumed dead
Unsolved child murder

Since they dragged the lake
You know they seemed au-fait
Cordoned off some wood
And gave the photo to a psychic
Presumed dead
Unsolved child murder

If i die before my parents die
If i die before my parents die

More hate mail through the door
Didn't know that sundays
Could be useful after all
People can be cruel and spineless

Hung around your house
Waiting for your mother
Rachel says she's married to a doctor
Presumed dead
Unsolved child murder

If i die before my parents die
If i die before my parents die

Better move on - with the good stuff
Better move on - right away
Sod this town and people's pity
Let's get on with the nitty gritty
Presumed dead - unsolved child murder

I believe in esp
When you're dealing with a master thief
Headlines scream
'he's been missing 2 weeks'

Rachel said when we find
We can cure him
We can make him better
Raise him from the dead
Unsolved child murder
Raise him from the dead
Unsolved child murder


7.Married To A Lazy Lover

Sack the maid - put her in chains until
She say's that it's painless and i
Couldn't care less

Twenty years
Married to a lazy lover
Twenty years
Mixing alcohol and downers
Sack the maid
For dealing in state propoganda
Sack the state

What would your common lover do
Beat the daylights out of you?
It's a national threat
Married to a lazy lover
Against the west
Married to a lazy lover
I could teach him how to drink
But he just threw up in the sink

The man from the ministy
Didn't have to say
That your lover's on the shelf
Would he bite the bit
Or split my lip?
Anyway this marraige is annulled


8.Buddha

Happy birthday buddha
Happy hunting, happy hiding, happy new year
I hope you get yourself together
I hope your absence is made clear

I first learned, their was a value
In a little subterfuge
From some old peeping tom
Or another woman's refuge
Came in contact with a svengali
He was housebound and unwell
Choked on a whale bone in a cantonese restaurant

His nervous system
Had broken down

9 singing buddhas


9.Tombstone

Taking out the garbage at the columbia hotel

Nobody got a ticket out of cripple town

Better call suspension - bakelite and dial
We'll take the fucking building out -
Baader meinhof style

Every day, every hour, every minute
Every dawn to sundown
Everybody's gonna get it
- in tombstone
Every day, every hour,
We're related
For the rest of the year
Everybody's gonna get it
Tombstone is here

Like to thank my mother for inventing
Rock and roll
I'd be lost without it, i would not be whole
Honeymoon is over - waiting fr the cops
Sitting shit faced in dan's car
Thinking 'bout who we're not

Tombstone, tombstone got a gun
We've got all the women and children
All tied up for fun

Got to see a doctor, i need to turn my
Bones to milk
Nobody ever found the gold upon the hill
And i wanted glamour not tragic rock n roll
And i want a lover, who'll nail me to the wall
Everybody etc.


10.Fear Of Flying

You may be wary of fallen stars
They're always poking around in the dark
The ariel view of a dying man
Screaming out can you help me invisible man
You must be wary of ghosts in the dark
They know all your history they know all your past
All of the angels are doing their bit
Clearing the house of your animal shit

Fear of flying is eating you whole
I have no fear of dying at all
It's absurd that a silver bird
Should have a fear of flying at all

You may be wary of who you short change
Keeping the short-con well within range
The ariel view of an idiot bird
Screaming out can you help me but nobody heard

You may be wary of ghosts of the past
Sexless and incorrigible in the dark
They're making an ariel map of abuse
All of the a-roads leading to home


11.Dead Sea Navigators

Their legend lay in tatters
From perth to john o'groats
The dead sea navigators
Should've been buried at birth
And of course i loved them dearly
And i miss them now they're gone
The dea sea navigators
Wished they'd had a son

Even in their heyday
No-one like them anyway
Committed boozers 3 a.m. shivers
This one goes out to those not with us

John the barman and mickey green
This one goes out to all the drinkers
At the red lion
And our friends, though they are few
Angel, johnny, pain, keith charity
This one's for you
And what's left of your nerve will get you through

From brighton down to eastbourne
Sea sick sailors getting tough
But the dead sea navigators
Were made of stouter stuff

Golden years, golden years
No-one like them
'cept for us

Season's ending , all night porters
Thy honour defending with last orders

All the sunbathers
Staring at the sun
This one goes out to the
Invisible children - as yet unborn
And our friends
Though they are few
Overcoat boys with more brains than brawn
This one's for you
And all that sail in the
Deas sea navigators
This one's for you


12.After Murder Park

Esme could you shut the door
And put the oil lamp on the floor
I feel it coming on again
Just like it did on saturday
Voices after murder park
In the damp in the dark
Maybe we should call the law
Maybe we should call the child's parents

I'll love you until the end

Hi, hello, what have you seen?
God, it's good to hear your voice again
Did you miss your brother
Darling i will always love you
Lying, in a shallow grave
There's a church nearby and a railway
On a bed of mud and wire
Esme find out where the child is buried

Marry the first born
Bury the stillborn
I love you and i always will

We are lying here
Waiting to be buried
We are lying here and you're losing
Contact with the dead

Please don't ask about the future
I am not a fortune teller
I know you're just being civil
But don't make this trivial
Uncles i have never seen
Only in my own dead dream
On a bed of mud and wire
Esme find out where the child is buried

I'll love you until the end
