Death From Above 1979 - The Physical World Lyrics
Cheap Talk
She uses her body
To say the things that she can't say
But I don't know why, I can't lie
I could never really move that way
So listen, I go crazy
The way she makes me
Be on my knees
Yeah!
I beg it, please
Yeah!
What he said
What she said
It doesn't really matter in the end
I can see it goin' fast
Talkin' cheap will never last
I notice you noticing me
The way that you walk in
That I believe
Everythin' you said
Your body won't lie in bed
So listen, I go crazy
The way she makes me
Now listen, I go crazy
The way she makes me
Be on the floor
Yeah!
I want some more
Yeah!
She is in the back seat
Buyin' everythin' he says
While he's runnin' like a bull
That you look in the mirror, air [?]
You can turn around...

Right On Frankenstein!
I do my own grades lately
I don't need any help
Just let me sit here quiet
In here by myself
I don't wanna talk, but I wanna be buried
Meet me at the gates of the cemetery
I've been a zombie latley
I got nothin' to say
Always too much talkin'
Not enough feelin' frailness
I'll wait here 'til I'm ready
All my life I've been waitin' for you
Not waitin' to find out
Nothing's new
It's the same old song
Just a different tune
Right on, Frankenstein!
Youth is in the door
Lazarus push the stone off
Where's the way back to bed
Chasin' the beast inside me
He pushes and shoves
Says and he does and he hugs him
Why do I get no love
Right on, Frankenstein!
You don't believe in ghosts
Lightning strikes the body
And threatens life the most

Virgins
Where have all the virgins gone
Sleepin' on their parents lawn
Bad kids sent to summer school
Skip to skate in the empty pool
No one seems to listen
The pool is no exception
Don't ever change
Bad is good enough
Please won't you stay with me
I'm beggin' tonight
I'll hold back your hair
If you're not feelin' alright
There's nothin' left for us here
This town has spit us out dear
I track my feet up and down these halls
I write my name on the bathroom walls
There's nothin' sacred to me
I lost it in the back seat
I believe there's room for friends
And all beds
And all their friends
Are what they said
Opposites attract sometimes
And others frown
That love is blind
And I don't mind
Yeah!

Always On
Innocence is fadin'
'Cause we see it here to much
Everyone you know around you
Always keep in touch
Show me something new
Somethin' I can like
'Cause we're always, always on now
If we bought Kurt back to life
There's no way he would survive
No way, not a day
I've been losin' sleep
Just keepin' up with what's become
Reachin' out for something else
When all I want is love
'Cause you can't turn off
You're always on
Who is that callin' on the phone
Cut the ring, can't ignore
No one alone, not anymore
'Cause we're always, always on now

Crystal Ball
If my heart bruises
Everybody loses
Oh!
I can't stress enough
And on the weekend
Everyone's my best friend
Oh!
I don't believe it
If I can see the end
I can't see the beginnin'
There's no crystal ball
To see the happy endin'
I know I can't say
That this will last forever
But I need you to know
I don't want you to go
If my hand losing
Everybody bruises
Oh!
You gotta believe me
And if the house wins
Everybody else sins
Oh!
The truths the city
It's not in the cards
There's no crystal ball
There's no way to predict
Who will take it all
Can always have what you want
You know it's for the try
I see you gettin' turned on
I know the reason why
If my heart bruises
Everybody loses
Oh!
You gotta believe me
And on the weekend
Everyone's your best friend
Oh!
I don't believe it

White Is Red
Frankie was a heart breaker
I didn't know it at the start
She was only 16
But she when and broke my heart
And she pulled up in her dads car wearing white
She said she knew a place where we could hide
She didn't have a license and she told me I could drive
So I drove all night
Why don't you leave me, she asked that night
I said: I see, I didn't know the kid is mine
I'll never leave you, it isn't right
Lets stay together until the end of time
Oh now the white is red
Can't get it outta my head
Oh now the white is red
I heard that there's a place where we can go
Across the state there's no one that we know
Or maybe rent a place where we can stay
Where what we have will go along the way
Then Frankie turned to me, she looked me in the eye
She said that I looked tried, she told me she could drive
I pulled up to the station, walked through neon lights
Then she put her foot down, down, down, down
Why did you leave me alone that night
You took of racing, the kid is mine
You left me standing out on the yellow line
The daylights fading into the night
We cross the line
Oh now the white is red
Can't get it outta my head
Oh now the white is red
I don't know why she left, took off racin'
I ran down yellow line, red lights fadin'
She went left, double line, outta luck, outta time
I cover my eyes, I know she crossed the line
She crossed the line
Oh now the white is red
Can't get it outta my head
Oh now the white is red

Trainwreck 1979
I was born on the highway
In a trainwreck
With a heart that was beating
Outta my chest
So now I follow it around the world
I can't keep up if I don't get it soon
I know I'll bleed until I drop
'Cause I want it all
I can't get enough
'Cause I want it all
I can't get enough
There's a darkness and a hollow
On the highway
Every cross on the roadside
Tells a story
So now I follow it around the world
I can't keep up
The story never ends as long as we have
Blood and guts
'Cause I want it all
I can't get enough
'Cause I want it all
I can't get enough
Can't get enough
I can't get enough
It ran off the track, 11/79, while the immigrants slept
There wasn't much time
The mayor came calling and got 'em outta bed
They packed up their families and headed up wind
A poison cloud, a flaming sky
200,000 people and no one died
And all before the pocket dial
Yeah
I keep searchin' and searchin'
I keep searchin' and searchin'
Now I'm stranded, tied on the tracks
There's no hero, there's no villain
There's nobody I can blame, the story's still the same
I'm never satisfied
It's a problem with my brain
I keep searchin' and searchin'
I keep searchin' and searchin'
'Cause I want it all
I can't get enough
'Cause I want it all
I can't get enough
Can't get enough
I can't get enough

Nothin Left
And I know this for sure
There's nothin' left for her
No!
And I spent it all up
No change left for her cup
No!
And I fancy the moon's full
I feel her push and pull
Yeah!
There's no love lost and none found
I feel her comin' round
Yeah!
Now she is waitin' for the night
To see if everything's all right
She do the hardest things for free
And now there's nothin' left for me(-hee!)
No time left
I've spend
No money
No love
No tenderne-e-ess
Yeah!
My patience wasted
Our problems of no significa-a-ance
Yeah!

Government Trash
Well you can't say nothin'
We're doin' right
'Cause the government trash
Will give me up all night
'Cep for drugs so hard
They need to break their banks
Don't step on the crack
'Cause you know about that
21, 21, nobody knows anything at 21
22, 22, nobody knows anything at 22
She's alright, alright
She'll make it alright, alright
It's not a secret
Everybody has decided
Look in the mirror
Starin' back in those eyes
Don't stop thinkin'
Nrrgh now pass the phone
I said do what you want
But just leave me alone
Nothin' is free
Call the police
They dress to care
I dress to die

Gemini
My girl is a Gemini
She gets things done
Sometimes she's mean
but she can be a lot of fun
She cries on her birthday
no it's not the first time
Yeah, she cries on her birthday
no it's not the first time
Her blood stained walls
stepped on and forgotten
Cut from the film
Cut from her wrists
Twenty-four seven
still believes in heaven
raspberry lips
never been kissed
She's over there sleepin'
She's warm when I sneak in
I sleep with the sunshine
she gets up before 9
She cries on her birthday
no it's not the first time
Yeah, she cries on her birthday
no it's not the first time
Her blood stained walls
Stepped on and forgotten
Cut from the film
Cut from her wrists
Twenty-four seven
still believes in heaven
raspberry lips
never been kissed
Her blood stained walls
stepped on and forgotten
cut from the film
cut from her wrists
Twenty-four seven
still believes in heaven
raspberry lips
never been kissed
raspberry lips
never been kissed

The Physical World
I can't help you
If you don't try
Starin' at nothin'
Nothin' is right
Can I say somethin'
That might sound wrong
Maybe we've been too
Free too long
Oh no, not again
I get the feelin' this is never gonna end
Go bridge won
Has strung out
Build up tear it down
Sun burn walk it out
Look in my
I can't sell you
If no one buys
Torn out your heroes
Click and they die
Oh no, not again
I get the feelin' this is never gonna end
Oh no, not again
I get the feelin' this is never gonna end
Go bridge won
Has strung out
Build up tear it down
Sun burn every thing
I can't lie
