The worst part of you Is your identity

Lowlife 03:00
After Midnight Will you be there? You should not have come again I’ve been living the lowlife Take me back to the high life Lift me up After Midnight again I’ve been living the lowlife Take me back to the high life Lift me up Why did we go back to madness? We were safer when at war I’ve been living the lowlife Take me back to the high life Lift me up

You get up And you get down You take what you need to get by

You said I used you Well I’m still using you I’ll keep on using you Until I use you up I hold my hand up God forgive me For all the things I’ve done to you I hold my hand up God forgive me For all the things I’m going to do It’s too late now

Generation X 02:58
Dressing up Making money Space Invaders Pretty boys Like a New Romantic In a factory town We wanted the future And we’ve had it now We’re Generation X And we’re crying out for MTV We’re Generation X And we’re dying out Broken hearts Iron Ladies Rubber Bullets Drop the bomb Don’t like your future Why not change it then? We don’t have to stay together For the sake of the children We’re Generation X And we’re crying out for MTV We’re Generation X And we’re dying out Going out In the cities No religion Dance the Blues Did they promise you some kind of better world? Where there’d be No war No peace No boys No girls We’re Generation X And we’re crying out for MTV We’re Generation X And we’re dying out

The Creeps 03:13
Maybe it’s the way you move You keep so still It isn’t true And you never seem to blink You give me the creeps It’s like you never look away There’s something ancient In your gaze I can’t work out what you’re thinking You give me the creeps Your footsteps Never make a sound Maybe you float above the ground My thumbs prick Whenever you’re near You give me the creeps You make the air around you die You look like you’re about to cry But you are dangerously calm You give me the creeps

Hey there pretty boy You’re talking a good game But can you walk what you’re talking? You keep looking back Like time is on your side But it’s the end of the world Make like an atom and split Run like a river That’s it You will never be like us When you’re young Hey there pretty woman What you gonna do? I’d never call you a taxi I feel so naive Thinking that you might know me I looked like you Yesterday Let’s steal the moondust For kicks I never saw it coming You will never be like us When you’re young Make like a mountain And rock! Whatever still gets you off You will never be like us When you’re young

Je dis ce que je pense Tu ne dis jamias rien Pourriez vous repeater, ok? N’Importante qui Tant que c’est toi Elle setait déjà fait Un nom comme pensee Se faire une mauviase reputation, eh? N’Importante qui Tant que c’est toi Une chamber avec vue De nous memes fixez Le lieu nous y serons jamais N’Importante qui Tant que c’est toi

I met her at the silent disco She was dancing to, I think, 'You Got The Look' I tried to 'groove' It was a real fiasco I was listening to a Dickens audiobook Shake me up 'til I lose control Shake me up 'til the party's over Shake me up Body and Soul Shake me up Shake me up, stupid You leave me wanting Nothing more Shake me up The Girl With The Peal Earphones Makes me want to dance In the dark you can tell I'm not handsome She looked a bit like Scarlet Johansson I must confess it stopped me in my tracks I though she mouthed, "Let's make the beast with 2 backs" I said, Shake me up 'til I lose control Shake me up 'til the party's over Shake me up Body and Soul Shake me up Shake me up, stupid You leave me wanting Nothing more Shake me up The Girl With The Peal Earphones Makes me want to dance
