Sixteen Stone Songtext

von Bush

There must be something we can eat
Maybe find another lover
Should I fly to Los Angeles
Find my asshole brother

Minnie(?) Mouse has grown up a cow
Dave's on sale again
We kissy kiss in the rear view
We're so bored
You're to blame

Try to see it once my way
Everything zen
Everything zen
I don't think so

Raindogs howl for the century
A million dollars a steak
As you search for your demi-god
And you fake with a saint
There's no sex in your violence
There's no sex in your violence

Try to see it once my way
Everything zen
Everything zen
I don't think so

I don't believe that Elvis is dead
I don't believe that Elvis is dead
I don't believe that Elvis is, Elvis is

There's no sex in your violence

2: Swim

Could not believe
Came here today
Helmet was on
You blew me away
House is on fire
We're naked again
Maybe all we need
Is water and friends

Shackles and chains
Won't keep me away
Temple is you
And my brow is insane

I wanna be just like you
I wanna feel right through you
I wanna see just with you
I wanna live
I wanna die you

Thinning ice
14 Hairdryers
Swimming to you
Flame on earth desire
Poor on the rise
Rich on the fall
The cripple's with you
Fame is a whore

I wanna fit inside you
I wanna room inside you
If money talks I wanna buy you
I wanna die
I wanna die
I wanna live you

I'm not scared of you
Gave up on drugs
If I make it through
The jaws of love
Jaws of love

You give

3: Bomb

Wanted to buy you shiny red things
Thought I'd be with you until the end
How did I know that I would be there
Blow me away
See if I care

Death of a future
Goodbye to my friends
Wish I could see you all again
Family hollow
Family real
Wish you were here see how I feel

Kill a man
Kill a girl
Kill a man
Kill a girl

Jekyll in you
Brings out the wired in me
I have no defense
I'm all that you see
The night is a bomb blast
The night is on fire
Sing with me in the gasoline choir

And you say you want to change our minds
I've paid for your belief with mine
Of all the bravest stands in time

You stoop so low you'll never rise

4: Little Things

I bleach the sky
Every night
Loaded on wrong
And further from right
Spinning around
Two howling moons
Cos there always there
Whatever I do

The river is loaded
I've been there today
Took it some questions
She does me again
I'd die in your arms
If you were dead too
Here comes a lie
We will allways be true

Going up
When coming down
Scratch away
It's the little things that kill
Tearing at my brains again
The little things that kill
The little things that kill

Bigger you give
Bigger you get
We're boss at denial
But best at forget
Cupboard is empty
We really need food
Summer is winter
And you always knew

Going up when coming down
Scratch away

I touch your mouth
My willy is food
Addicted to love
I'm addicted to fools
I kill you once
I kill you again
We're starving and crude
Welcome my friends to

The little things that kill

5: Comedown

Love and hate get it wrong
She cut me right back down to size
Sleep the day let it fade
Who was there to take your place
No one knows never will
Mostly me but mostly you
What do you say do you do
When it all comes down
I don't want to come back down from this cloud
Taken me all this time to find out what I need
And I'm doing fine now
There is no blame only shame
When you beg you just complain
More I come more I try
All police are paranoid
So am I - so's the future
So are you - be a creature
What do you say do you do when it all comes down

6: Body

Hush child - lay your sweet lips on me
This greed - bigger than you and me
Will you come again
Body
Tongue tied and a visceral third degree
Feel warm - center of gravity
Wash us all away
Body never lies
Will you come again
Will we stay friends
Oh you paralyze
There are times when I wish
That I was you
Thick skinned- cities you drive me through
Better than me - you're a woman
Seven days and my system is free again
We rise - lose it on oblivion
Falling away - sorry for the way
Your child is on fire
Lick these my ruby lips
Drop your protein pills
Better just to lose yourself
We kiss we kiss we kiss
Pretty words could never say
Will you come again

7: Machinehead

Breathe in breathe out
Tied to a wheel fingers got to feel
I spin on a whim I slide to the right
I felt you like electric light
For our love
For our fear
For our rise against the years and years and years

Got a machinehead better than the rest
Green to red machinehead
And I walk from my machine
I walk from my machine

Deaf dumb and thirty
Starting to deserve this
Leaning on my consious wall
Blood is like wine
Unconscious all the time
If I had it all again
I'd change it all

8: Testosterone

I'm a man
I'm real proud of my manhood
I like to smoke
Ten thousands of cigarillos
Eight ball
I could climb any fountain
I never cry
I only bawl when I'm losing
And I've never been wrong
Never been wrong
I'm looking so good
Looking so good

Got a big gold gun
Got a big gold bullet
And I guess you could say
I'm real full of it
I'm real full of it

I'm real straight
You wanna see my peccadillos
Hot dog 7:30 every morning
And I'm big into war
Big into war
Big into war

I am a whore
I am a whore

Got a big gold gun

I shave with Gillette
Shave with Gillette
And I'm patting my back
Patting my back
Got a big gold bullet

9: Monkey

The mind is all we kiss everything
We say we love it's the skin we're in
You're a retrograde a vacancy
You're the one I love
The hate in me
Lazy day on a darker breed
To have is not what it's made to be
You come alone on a mass attack
Sucking your tantric suck
Fooling your one-eyed cat

We don't mind

We deviate our gravy brains
Set em on fire they're all the same
I am lionface
No sancho panza
I'm riddled by you
I could've been better

I'm a monkey on a drip
Sucker monkey on a drip

You take such pretty photos
When will you be worthy of our good side
Where will you be
When the cloud break
And it all takes
Just a little more than you have
We don't mind

10: Glycerine

Must be your skin that I'm sinking in
Must be for real cos now I can feel
And I didn't mind
It's not my kind
Not my time to wonder why
Everything's gone white
And everything's grey
Now you're here now you're away
I don't want this
Remember that
I'll never forget where you're at
Don't let the days go by
Glycerine

I'm never alone
I'm alone all the time
Are you at one
Or do you lie
We live in a wheel
Where everyone steals
But when we rise it's like strwaberry fields

I treated you bad
You bruise my face
Couldn't love you more
You got a beautiful taste
Don't let the days go by
Could have been easier on you
I couldn't change though I wanted to
Could have been easier by three
Our old friend fear and you and me
Glycerine (repeat)
Don't let the days go by
Glycerine

I needed you more
When we wanted us less
I could not kiss just regress
It might just be
Clear simple and plain
That's just fine
That's just one of my names
Don't let the days go by
Could've been easier on you
Glycerine

11: Alien

Well the satellite comes and goes
We give eachother all we know
In silence we still talk
By the light of the stereo waltz
And will you rain down
In your cinematic love truck
I want to hold you like nothing's going stop us
She coma to take me away
Its all that I needed
I don't breathe another lover
Flicker on a TV screen
Ecerything's more than it seems
The mighty backward fall
Stare at the lights on the wall
I swear to this
She felt like velvet
Second blond child she meant it
She comes to take me away
Its all that I needed
I don't breathe another lover
I'm an alien
You're an alien
It's a beautiful rain
Beautiful rain
Beautiful rain

12: X-Girlfriend

You only call me when you're down
You only call me when you're down
You only call me when you're down
You only call me when you're down
You only call me when you're down
You only call me when you're down
You only call me when you're down
You only call me when you're down
