На оси

Ты видишь ее, но не можешь прикоснуться к ней,
Ты слышишь ее, но не можешь удержать,
Ты хочешь ее, но не имеешь,
Ты хочешь, но она не дается.
Ты видишь ее, но не можешь прикоснуться к ней,
Ты слышишь ее, но не можешь удержать,

So if you're lonely
You know I'm here waiting for you
I'm just a cross-hair
I'm just a shot away from you
And if you leave here
You leave me broken, shattered alive
I'm just a cross-hair
I'm just a shot, then we can die

I swapped my innocence for pride
Crushed the end within my stride
Said "I'm strong now I know that I'm a leader
I love the sound of you walking away, you walking away"
Mascara bleeds a blackened tear
And I am cold, yes I'm cold, but not as cold as you are
I love the sound of you walking away, you walking away

As I Glance Once Upon The Foam
40 Feet Beneath My Feet
The Coldest Calm Falls
Through The Molten Veins
Cooling All The Blood To Slush
Congeals Around Again

La La La

Bang, bang, Gavrilo Principe
Bang, bang, shoot me Gavrilo
Bang, bang, the first six are for you
Bang, bang, the seventh is for me
Bang, bang, Gavrilo Principe
Bang, bang, Europe's going to weep

All for you, all for you, all for you, Sophia

Bang bang, Gavrilo Princip
Bang bang, shoot me Gavrilo
Bang bang, the first six are for you
Bang bang, the seventh is for me
Bang bang, Gavrilo Princip
Bang bang, Europe's going to weep
All for you, all for you, all for you, Sophia (x4)

That's how it starts
We go back to your house
You check the charts
And start to figure it out

And if it's crowded, then all the better
because we know we're gonna be up late
But if you're worried about the weather

[Intro]
[Repeated throughout intro]
Put your ladder down
Put your ladder down
Put your ladder down
Put your ladder down
Put your ladder down

Above the fold of covers
Ten thousand volts hit
Where her arm fell accidentally
But she didn't move it
Despite the singing skin
You didn't move yours either did you though?

Never knew anyone in love

You see her, you can't touch her
You hear her, you can't hold her
You want her, you can't have her
You want to, but she won't let you
You see her, you can't touch her
You hear her, you can't hold her
You want her, you can't have her
You want to, but she won't let you

You see her, you can't touch her
You hear her, you can't hold her
You want her, you can't have her
You want to, but she won't let you
You see her, you can't touch her
You hear her, you can't hold her
You want her, you can't have her
You want to, but she won't let you

I wrote your name upon the back of my hands
Slept upon it and I woke up with it
Backwards on my face
Reading forwards to my mirror to my heart

Twilight omens in my life
Then I hear your name
Hear the way you sing your name

You don't know I
Sing these songs
About you.
You don't know the pseudonyms I assume.
You don't know the pseudonyms I assume.
For you.

Are you happier now

You don't know,
I sing these songs,
About you,
You don't know the the Pseudonyms,
I assume
You don't know the the Pseudonyms,
I assume,
For you.

We are bored
We are married
We are young
On the edge of the city
The edge of Ambrosia
Rolls upon rolls upon
Rolls upon the tongue

Colour me your colour, baby
Colour me your car
Colour me your colour, darling
I know who you are
Come up off your colour chart
I know where you're comin' from

Call me (call me) on the line

Soul starts spinning again
I can't stop feeling
No, I won't stop feeling
And the fun's not fun anymore
I can't stop feeling
No, I won't stop feeling

You leave me here on my own

My soul starts spinning again
I cant stop feeling
No, I wont stop feeling
And the funs not fun anymore
I cant stop feeling
No, I wont stop feeling

And you leave me here on my own

Goodbye girl, because I'm lonely
Goodbye girl, it isn't over
Goodbye girl, because it's only love

Goodbye girl, you know you want me
Goodbye girl, yes I'm a loser
Goodbye girl, you know its only love

Although my lover lives in a place that I can't live
I kinda find I like a life this lonely
It rips and pierces me in places I can't see
I love the rip of nerves, the rip that wakes me

So I'm dissatisfied, I love dissatisfied
I love to feel there's always more that I need

You take your white finger
Slide the nail under
the top and bottom buttons
of my blazer
relax the fraying wool
slacken ties and I'm
not to look at you in the shoe
but the eyes find the eyes

You are the latest contender
You are the one to remember
You are the villain who sends her
Light or dark, fantastic passion
I know that you will surrender
I know that you will surrender
I want this fantastic passion
We'll have fantastic passion

You can't feel it, you can't feel it
You can't feel it, you can't feel anymore
Feel anymore, feel anymore, feel anymore

Can't stop, no I won't stop
Can't stop, no I won't stop
Can't stop, no I won't stop
Can't stop, no I won't stop

When I woke up tonight I said I'm
Going to make somebody love me
I'm going to make somebody love me
Now I know
Now I know
Now I know
That it's you
You're lucky lucky you're so lucky

There's only wind and dust to follow
Your footsteps on the run
You know me, know when I'm without you
I swear my heart burns in the sun

Baby, don't start walking away
Stop walking away
Stop coming around and around again

Don´t be afraid if
you hear voices
Or feel the sweet air
Spoken upon you
Sometimes the sound
Of a thousand
Whispering words
Of Hope will reassure

Eleanor put those boots back on
Kick the heels into the Brooklyn dirt
I know it isn’t dignified to run
But if you run
You can run to the Coney Island rollercoaster
Ride to the highest point and leap across the filthy water
Leap until the Gulf Stream’s brought you down

Ich bin so wild nach deinem Erdbeermund,
ich schrie mir schon die Lungen wund
nach deinem weissen Leib, du Weib.
Im Klee, da hat der Mai ein Bett gemacht,
da blht ein schner Zeitvertreib
mit deinem Leib die lange Nacht.

Erdbeer mund Ich bin so wild

Words fall from my mouth
Like plates from shaking hands
Smash upon the silence
Of the smooth naked canal

I'm evil and a heathen
I'm evil and a heathen
I'm a heathen and evil like you

What’s the color of the next car?,
(Red you bastard) Yeah red you bastard
Don’t believe in god don’t believe in that shit
Not me!
I’d like to bring them down
Not me!
Some fool who dumb dumb do, Not! Not! Not me

I've hardly seen her likes before
Somewhere else, nowhere else before
The girl in the spotlight evermore
Like no one before, forever more

Bloody Marys, two for tea
Bubble bath and TV
All the boys from Rock n' Roll

So far away
Come on I'll take you far away
Let's get away
Come on let's make a get away.

Once you have loved someone this much
You doubt it could fade
Despite how much you'd like it to

I can't seem to feel the envy, I should feel
Or maybe I don't need the sour side of love, of love

No, I don't care his breath is in your hair
Well, I don't care his skin is still
Between the still on fold of your sheets
Send him away

Hey, what's that thing that you're doing
Hey, what's that thing that you do
No, you're not that thing that you're doing
For the things that you do are not who you are

Why don't you come over here
Why don't you come over here
Why don't you come over here

I got a question for you, I got a question for you
Where'd you get your name from?
Where'd you get your name from?
I got a question for you
Where do you see yourself in five minutes time?

With a laugh like that or a look like that
You make us all feel gauche like it's a smutty joke

Come on, let's get high
Come on
Come on, let's get high

But you got to stop
Twenty five miles
High

As I glance once upon the foam
Forty feet beneath my feet
The coldest calm falls
Through the molten veins
Cooling all the blood to slush
Congeals around again
Oh, la-la-la-la, la-la-la-la, la-la-la-la, la-la-la-la, la
La-la-la-la, la-la-la-la, la-la-la-la, la-la-la-la, la

We are fresh strawberries
Fresh burst of red strawberries
Ripe turning riper in the pole
We will soon be rotten
We will all be forgotten
Half remembered rumours of the old

So wouldn't it be easy with

Get away from me
You don't have to stay so long at all
Get away from me
I keep crying your name, cut off from me
Get away from me
Your skin and bone, believe me, leave me
Get away from me
She doesn't stumble, she falls right off her feet

Don’t play pop music
You know I hate pop music
Just sing amazing godless grace

Don’t wear bright colours
You know I hate bright colours
I never liked you for the way you dressed
Anyway

Breeze blows from treetops to tease sensation
wonder in your imagination
wondering where she can be
it feels so cold as you go when you leave
you're a dandelion blown on the breeze
wondering where you could be

the *whispers* the wind up

You toss in a word
And I'm your villain
I see the passion emerge
And I'm your villain
But serious
You're so serious
Oh, like a waiter
Hating the rich

You toss in a word
I'm your villain
I see the passion emerge
I'm your villain
But serious
You're so serious
Like a waiter
Hating the rich

Well, Jackie Jackson was a greedy boy
That's right, he liked to stuff his face
The thing that gave that boy the greatest joy
Was eating far too many cakes

And he ate one, two, three, four
But Jackie wanted more
Five, six, seven, eight

Jacqueline was seventeen
working on a desk
when Ivor
Peered above a spectacle
forgot that he had wrecked a girl
Sometimes these eyes
Forget the face they're peering from
When the face they peer upon

We stopped the time for Jeremy Fraser
He died of a lance of silver
We stopped the time for Jeremy Fraser
He died of a lance of silver
Do you want to know how we stopped the time?
There's no reason to know

We stopped the time for Jeremy Fraser

Katherine kiss me
Slippy little lips will split me
Split me where your eye won't hit me
Yes, I love you
I mean, I- I'd love to get to know you

Sometimes I say the stupid things
I think

Katherine, kiss me
Slippy little lips will split me
Split me where your eye won't hit me
Yes I love you, I mean I'd love to get to know you

Sometimes I say the stupid I things
I mean I sometimes think the stupidest things
And do you ever wonder how the boy feels?

Great Western Wind catches in your Celtic hair
Flicks it round your face like flames around the sun
In the bright cold air you seem as innocent and fair
As Rita Tushingham in 1961

Well, Lynsey Wells
How I wish that I could feel so good
I wish that I could be as good as you

I want to live alone
Because the greatest love
Is always ruined by the bickering
The argument of living
So I want to live alone
I could be happy on my own

Live the rest of my life

I'm so free I could lacerate
Rip the robes right off my chest
I fly high above the Muscovites' sky
I'm going to rip, rip, I'll never rest
I'm going to meet you at midnight
I'm going to meet you at midnight
I'm not used to living alone
I have to learn how to live or I'll die

When you’re happy from a dream
Is it hard to work out what’s real
Is the real over there
More vivid than here ever feels
We could love, we could love you
If you need somebody to love you
While you’re looking for somebody to love

I'm gonna give my aimless love
My angry heart, my desire
I walk with wings from lucid dreams
I knew the reason I felt hollow
Was that I may never know
That if there is some great truth or not

There is no

You take your white finger
Slide the nail under the top and bottom buttons of my blazer
Relax the fraying wool, slacken ties
And I'm not to look at you in the shoe, but the eyes

So find me and follow me through corridors, refectories and files
You must follow, leave this academic factory
You will find me in the matinee

This is where I'll be so heavenly
So come and dance with me Michael

So sexy, you're sexy
come and dance with me Michael

I'm all that you see, you want to see
come and dance with me Michael

Some miserable day, back in November
Newcastle is grey, as grey as the river
But your eyes are bright with life
And life is bright with you

I'm missing you
I'm missing you
I'm missing you

Floating off the coast of Mexico
On a rafter
I reckon there must be a couple of million down there
And though I, cannot swim
We can learn together
Eating nothing but the sun and the lives of our
Caipirihnas

Oh, kiss me
Lick your cigarette, then kiss me
Kiss me where your eye won't meet me
Meet me where your mind won't kiss me

Lick your eyes and mine and then hit me
Hit me with your eyes so sweetly
Oh, you know you know you know that yes I love

Ooh kiss me
Lick your cigarette then kiss me
Kiss me where your eye won't meet me
Meet me where your mind won't kiss me
Lick your eyes and mine and then hit me
Hit me with your eyes so sweetly
Oh you know, you know, you know that yes I love
I mean I'd love to get to know you

Oh, kiss me
Lick your cigarette, then kiss me
Kiss me where your eye won't meet me
Meet me where your mind won't kiss me
Lick your eyes and mine and then hit me
Hit me with your eyes so sweetly
Oh, you know you know you know that yes I love
I mean I'd love to get to know you

Outsiders (оригинал Franz Ferdinand)

We've seen some change
But we're still outsiders
If everybody's here
Then hell knows
We ride alone

I come home, practically all is nearly forgiven
Right thoughts, right plans, right action
Almost everything could be forgotten
Right thoughts, right plans, right action

How can we leave you to a Saturday night
On a Sunday morning, good morning

I can't seem to feel the envy I should feel
Or maybe
I don't need the sour side of love
Of love

No, I don't care his breath is in your hair
Well, I don't care his skin is still between
Still on fold of your sheets

I live in the Merchant City, drive 4x4
I eat M & S, it tastes of nothing
Oh I taste of nothing
I am the New Scottish Gentry
Anglified vowels, sub London thoughts
I am the New Scottish Gentry
Anglified vowels, sub London thoughts

How can I tell you I was wrong? How can I tell you I was wrong?
When I am the proudest man ever born
I stand on the horizon, I want to step across it with you
But when the sun’s this low everything’s cold on the line of the horizon

Come to me, oh won’t you come to me, whooa?
Come to me, oh won’t you come to me, whooa?
Come to me, oh won’t you come to me, won’t you come to me, yeah?

I rise and curse the waking day
Curse the grime and curse the stains on the air
And on the skin of the bed I'm tied within

Hiding from the twitch and crash
Of the mood I hear your hatch
You're the mother growing cold
You're the bath now running old

So if you're lonely
You know I'm here
Waiting for you
I'm just a cross-hair
I’m just a shot away from you
And if you leave here
You leave me broken
Shattered I lie

So if you're lonely
You know I'm here waiting for you
I'm just a cross-hair
I'm just a shot away from you
And if you leave here
You leave me broken
shattered, I lie
I'm just a cross-hair

I only watched her walk, but she saw it
I only heard her talk, but she saw it
I only touched her lips but she saw it
I only kissed her lips, but she saw it
Gonna have to tell her tonight [x4]
She only flicked her eyes, but I saw it
She only swung her hair, but I saw it
She only shook her hips, but I saw it

Take your white finger
Slide the nail under the top and bottom buttons of my blazer
Relax the fraying wool, slacken ties
And I'm not to look at you in the shoe, but the eyes, find the eyes

Find me and follow me through corridors, refectories and files
You must follow me, leave this pshycadelic factory
You will find me in the matinee

Some say you're trouble, boy
Just because you like to destroy
All the things that bring the idiots joy
Well, what's wrong with a little destruction?

And the Kunst won't talk to you
Because you kissed St Rollox Adieu
Because you robbed a supermarket or two

"Will you walk a little faster?", said a whiting to a snail
"There's a porpoise close behind us, treading on my tail"
See how eagerly the lobsters and the turtles all advance
They are waiting on the shingle

Will you come and join the dance?
Will you, won't you, will you
Won't you, will you join the dance?

I’ll give you each love letter back
We’ll laugh before every joke is told
We’ll pose after every photograph
Has been removed from the negative

With every smile we lose a line
Watch the stars fall back into the sky
Cork the wine

It seems this boy's bathed in ridicule
Too forward, way too physical
It's time that I had another
I'm always wanting more, if there's another one
Give me some more, I'll have another one
I'll have a slice of your mother

This boy's quite spectacular

Eyes
burning away through me
eyes..
destroying so sweetly
Now
There is a fire in me
A fire that burns

Eyes
Boring a way through me
Paralyse
Controlling completely
Now
There is a fire in me
Fire that burns
Fire that burns

It ain't easy being this kind of lover
When you never call me
It ain't easy being this kind of lover
Don't you ever call me
But I'm dedicated, yes I'm a forgiver
I'm dedicated, sure I'm a forgiver
I'm dedicated, yes I'm a forgiver
I'll forgive you always

I wrote your name upon the back of my hands
Slept upon it and I woke up with it
Backwards on my face
Reading forwards to my mirror
To my heart

Twilight omens in my life
Then I hear your name

While I sit in here, a sentimental face stares
And a voice says hi so
So what you gotta what you gotta disdain?
C’mon let’s get high
C’mon look so, you got next oh
Walk twenty five miles oh
Well I’m bored I’m bored
C’mon let’s get high

Van Tango had a mean old scene, Van Tango!
(Mean old scene, Van Tango)
Van Tango had a mean old scene, Van Tango!
(Mean old scene, Van Tango)
He worked night-shift at the opera
(Mean old scene, Van Tango)
Watching the girls go by
(Girls go by, Van Tango)

I swapped my innocence for pride
Crushed the end within my stride
Said I'm strong now I know that I'm a leaver
I love the sound of you walking away, you walking away
Mascara bleeds a blackened tear, oh
And I am cold, yes, I'm cold
But not as cold as you are
I love the sound of you walking away, you walking away

Well That Was Easy

Well that was easy waiting
Everything's easy now
The days are Oh So Normal
But oh, Hannah
how I miss you
Now

I got a question for ya, I got a question for ya.
Where'd you get your name from,
where'd you get your name from?
I got a question for ya,
Where do you see yourself in five minutes, time?

With a laugh like that, or a look like that.
You makes us all feel gauche,

As I took step number four
Into the close of your tenement
You cast your darkened eyes so low
Said we're cold as the step cement

But I just don't know what you meant

So Alec you may want a pill

Tick-tock, tick-tock
Tick-tock, tick-tock
Tick-tock, tick-tock
Tick-tock, tick-tock
La, la, la, la, la, la, la

Like a cat in heat, stuck in a moving car
A scary conversation, shut my eyes, can't find the brake

So this is summer
And the Calor gas is running low
But I don"t mind
I"m doing things and doing them with you

Well you know he"s gonna
want his rent tonight
But we"ll have to tell him

Superstar
Where you from, how's it going?
I know you
Gotta clue, what you’re doing?
You can play brand new to all the other chicks out here
But I know what you are, what you are, baby

Look at you

She's an emotion avenger
She is the villain who sends
A line of dark fantastic passion
She knows that you will surrender, knows that you will surrender

You want this fantastic passion
We’ll have fantastic passion
You can feel her lips undress your eyes

Some say ya troubled boy
Just because you like to destroy
All the things that bring the idiots joy
Well,
What's wrong with a little destruction?

And the Kunst won't talk to you
Cause you kissed St. Rollox adieu

The last message you sent said I looked really down
That I oughtta come over and talk about it
Well I wasn't down
I just wasn't smiling at you, yeah

As I look at you now it seems
That your slapping my back as if it's alright but it's not
I'm trying to get up but you're pushing me down

Some granite wall
Numbs our bones, numbs our all
As we sit on skinny hands
Nothing to say, nothing at all
I don't know you and I don't want to
You're so awkward just like me
But I don't care

some granite wall
Numbs our bones, numbs our all
As we sit on skinny hands
Nothin to say, nothin at all
oh
I don't know you
and I
I don't want to

Suddenly you will believe me
What more was it that I could be
[is you believe in me]
The year two-thousand
I'll be back on the dole
Single but free
The best we'll ever be
[your love...]

Although my lover lives
In a place that I can't live
I kind of find I like a life
This lonely
It rips and pierces me
In places I can't see
I love the rip of nerves
The rip that wakes me
