Keep it warm TRASHED It really was a meeting The bottle took a beating The ladies of the manor Watched me climb into my car and I was going down the track about a hundred and five They had the stop-watch rolling I had the headlights blazing I was really alive And yet my mind was blowing I drank a bottle of tequila and I feel real good I had the tape deck roaring But on the twenty-fifth lap at the canal turn I went of exploring I knew I wouldn't make it the car just wouldn't make it I was turning tires burning The ground was in my sky I was laughing the bitch was trashed And death was in my eye I had started pretty good and I was feeling my way I had the wheels in motion There was Peter and the Green fly laughing like drains Inebriation The crowd was roaring I was at Brands Hatch In my imagination But at the canal turn I hit an only patch Inebriation Ooh Mr. Miracle you saved me from some pain I thank you Mr. Miracle I won't get trashed again Ooh can you hear my lies Don't you bother with this fool just laugh into my eyes So we went back to the bar and hit the bottle again But there was no tequila Then we started on the whisky just to steady our brains 'Cos there was no tequila And as we drank a little faster at the top of our hill We began to roll And as we get trashed we were laughing still Well bless my soul DISTURBING THE PRIEST Let's try getting to the sky Hang on or you're going to die Sour life can turn sweet It's laying at your feet Sweet child with an innocent smile Watched closely all the while Don't be fooled when he cries Keep looking at the eyes Good life is contradiction Because of the crucifixion If you're ready and have the need I will take your soul and plant my seed You just gotta listen to the night at the ending of the day You just gotta listen to the night as safety slips away Moving out of sight are the things you need to see to feel And as they slip away becoming so unreal unreal You just gotta listen to the night as you're going up stairs You just gotta listen to the night and don't forget to say your prayers And as you lose control to the eyes in dark disguise And icy fingers fan electric lies We're disturbing the priest Won't you please come to our feast Do we mind disturbing the priest Not at all not at all not in the least The force of the devil is the darkness the priest has to face The force of the night will destroy him but will not disgrace To get into his mind and to his soul you gotta set a light The flames of doubt so deep inside inside The devil and the priest can't exist if one goes away It's just like the battle of the sun and the moon and the night and day The force of the devil that we're all told to fear Watched out for religion when he gets too near too near ZERO THE HERO Accept the fact that you're second rate life is easy for you It's all served up on a gold plated plate And we don't even have to talk to you Your face is normal that's the way you're bred And that's the way you're going to stay Your head is firmly nailed to your TV channel But someone else's finger's on the control panel What you gonna be brother - Zero the hero Don't you wanna be brother - Zero the hero When you gonna be brother - Zero the hero Impossibility impissibolity mother really a hero You sit there watch it all burn down It's easy and breezy for you You play your life to a different sound No edge no edge you got no knife have you Your life is a six lane highway to nowhere You're going so fast you're never ever gonna get down there Where the heroes sit by the river With a magic in their music as they eat raw liver You stand there captain we all look You really are mediocre You are the champion in the Acme form book But I think you're just a joker Your freedom life ain't so much of a pity But the luv-a-duckin' way you're walkin' around The city with your balls and your head full of nothing It's easy for you sucker but you really need stuffing DIGITAL BITCH She wears her leather just to satisfy She really throws it around There ain't one thing she can't afford to buy She's the richest bitch in town Her big fat daddy was a money machine He made a fortune from computers She's got more money than I've ever seen But she's a greedy emotional looter Keep away from the digital bitch She's so rich the digital bitch She's got five rollers and a fine estate A big house upon hill She throws parties just to celebrate Her life is just one ginormous thrill She buys poor people just to have around She has a trophy for each lover The bitch is rich but baby pound for pound She's got a lot more to discover Maybe she could please me if I saw beneath her veil But she's just imitation woman up for sale She got so famous that she's on TV She's got a professional smile But I switch over 'cos she ain't for me She disturbs me all the while She looks so happy but she's got it wrong She's always going faster She sings her life to such a different song She needs a loving and dominant master BORN AGAIN As you look through my window Deep into my room At the tapestries all faded Their vague and distant glories Concealed in the gloom The icy fingers of forgotten passions Softly brushing my lips At the tips of my primitive soul As you look through my door Deep into my room Can you feel the mighty wall of power It's waiting waiting in the gloom The distant shadows of forgotten champions Those who live in me still And will rise when we challenge and kill Born again You'll be born again Look at this prince of evil Fighting for your mind Fighting all priests of shame For the thrust of my challenge is aimed At the hearts of mutant gods Who think we're all the same They're controlling our minds And they use us for fortune and fame As you look through my window Deep into my room At your future and freedom The grey and plastic retards all floating in circles And as you taste the fruits of new sensations Softly brushing your lips As we rise when we challenge and kill Born again You'll be born again If you want to be a king for a day Just do what I say Everybody's got to think like a hunter Just search for your pray Be alive through the night and the day Just do it my way HOT LINE Take me to the river baby drink my wine When I'm going down won't you throw me a line Lead me to religion take me up them stairs When I take a tumble will you say me some prayers When will you show me a sign When will you throw me a line Help me to the answer baby set me free I'm torn between the devil and the deep blue sea Maybe if you wanted you could save my face Keep me out of trouble and I'm living disgrace Show me to a sucker and you'll see my name Standing in a line with the shadows of fame Lead me to a legend take me up them stairs When I take a tumble will you say me some prayers KEEP IT WARM Sweet woman are you feeling right What was it that you did last night You made me crazy you made me fly I can't forget the hungry look in your eye Ooh what's the matter with me? I'm just a runner I was born free But since I met you I can't leave you alone I'm leaving now but I'll be coming home Keep it warm rat the place by your side Nobody's gonna take away our magical ride Keep it warm for when we talk on the phone Don't forget will you pretty one that your man is coming home D'you hear the rumour that is going around Say I'm ruined 'cos I've settled down It's not true well maybe half and half You know I love you but I still like a laugh Ooh I'm feeling fine I got it right for the first time Sweet woman I can't stay for long but everybody will be prove wrong I'm like a gypsy I need to roam But don't worry I'll be coming home I need the danger I need the thrill I need to know what is over each hill Ooh I'm a different man I'm still running but you understand Since I met you I can't leave you alone I'm leaving now but I'll be coming home
