lloyd cole and the commotions - 2cv
It's the french 'deux cheval'
Not the literal 2cv. he ryhmes it with blue.
She drove her mother's car, 'twas a deux cheval
I was most impressed by her casual dress
I was most impressed
Inside her rented room colored deepest blue
I suppose we found some kind of happiness
She drove her mother's car, 'twas a 2cv
I was most impressed by her casual dress
I was most impressed
Inside her rented room colored deepest blue
I suppose we found some kind of happiness
lloyd cole and the commotions - andy s babies
Does it hurt to be polite
Or is it just cool to be unkind
Must you always hurt the ones you love
And then get paid back in time
Now, now, now
Andy is fine but his taste is not mine
Let me tell you i don`t mean maybe
I'm getting really tired of andy's babies
Some say that children should be seen and not heard
That's what i'd preferred
Let's go downtown for a wine
I'm sure you'll be forced to smile
When you see andy's babies
And the bohemian lifestyle
Now, now now
Andy's a saint
But i'm losing my patience
I really don't mean maybe
Don't even wanna talk about andy's babies
So andy says his children will inherit the earth
Isn't that absurd, in a word
Trudy's in the bathroom
She's trying to clean up her eyes
And donald`s gone to mass
Yes we are thankful for that
It's eight in the morning
And still you can`t get no sleep
On account of this perfect day and
All this white light white heat
Ah, isn't that sweet
lloyd cole and the commotions - are you ready to be heartbroken
Looking like a born again
Living like a heretic
Listening to arthur lee records
Making all your friends feel so guilty
About their cynicism
And the rest of their generation
Not even the government are gonna stop you now
But are you ready to be heartbroken?
Are you ready to be heartbroken?
Pumped up full of vitamins
On account of all the seriousness
You say you're so happy now
You can hardly stand
Lean over on the bookcase
If you really want to get straight
Read norman mailer
Or get a new tailor
Are you ready to be heartbroken?
Are you ready to be heartbroken?
Are you ready to bleed?
What would it take
What would it take
To wipe that smile off of your face?
Are you ready to be, are you ready to bleed?
Are you ready to be heartbroken?
Are you ready to bleed? (heartbroken)
Well you better get ready now baby
Are you ready to bleed?, ready to bleed?
lloyd cole and the commotions - charlotte street
I was looking for a rhyme for the new york times
When i sensed i was not alone
She said d'you know how to spell audaciously
I could tell i was in luck
And so i forced a smile contrary to my style
And she looked into my eyes
She said d'you want to go heaven
Or would you rather not be saved
Here comes my train
I'm on my way, will you not see
I don't need your sympathy
I won't read your poetry, oh sweetness please
So she took me back to her basement flat
Which was down on charlotte street
Though it was never my intention
We were not intense, not least because
Well if you must just take then i'm a piece of cake
That is what she said to me
And so i gave myself to her charity
Well at least that's how it seemed
Here comes my train
I'm on my way, what got into me
I don't need your sympathy
I won't read your poetry, oh bittersweets
I was looking for a rhyme for the new times
when i was distracted
Yes those were precious times together that we wasted
Now i'm working hard for my union card
I must be leaving charlotte street
Though it was never my intention to stay so long
So long
lloyd cole and the commotions - down on mission street
Some say that you may soon be leaving town
Do you tire of chasing all the women around
Will you never be contented with your life
Will you always be the one who won't think twice
When you go down on your knees
You're so hard to please
When you go down on your knees
You're so hard, down on mission street
God only knows how you can hurt her
When you know that's what you do
How does it feel to be so cruel
Will you never be contented with your life
Will you always be the one who won't look back
When you go down on your knees
You're so hard to please
When you go down on your knees
It feels like up, down on mission street
Julie said your eyes are blue
Your lips are cold as stone
She picked you up and you put her down
And messed her place around
Will you never be contented with your life
Will you always be the one who won't think twice
When you go down on your knees
You're so hard to please
When you go down on your knees
You're so hard, down on mission street
When you go down on your knees
You're so hard to please
When you go down on your knees
It feels like up, down on mission street
lloyd cole and the commotions - forest fire
She crossed herself as she put on her things
She has promised once before not to live this way
If she don't calm down she will burn herself out
Like a forest fire,
Well doesn't that make you smile
If you don't slow down,
I swear that i'll come round
And mess up your place,
Let's go for a spin
They say we shouldn't even know each other
And that we'll be undone
Don't it make you smile
Like a forest fire
I believe in love,
I'll believe in anything
That's gonna get me what i want
And get me off my knees
Then we'll burn your house down,
Don't it feel so good
There's a forest fire
Every time we get together
Doo doo doo, doo doo doo doo doo doo
Doo doo doo doo doo, doo doo doo doo doo doo
Hey pick you up, put you down
Rip you up and spin you round
Just like we said we would
'cause we're a forest fire
Believe you me, we'll tear this place down
If we get caught in this wind
Then we could burn the ocean
If we get caught in this scene
We're gonna be undone
It's just a simple metaphor,
It's for a burning love
Don't it make you smile
Like a forest fire
lloyd cole and the commotions - four flights up
I was woken up at four AM
By your screams and anguished cries
Your mother was singing in the bathroom,
she will never be my child
Oh baby talks in her sleep so loud
We're living four flights up
but I swear right now it feels like underground
Well you have absolutely no common sense, yes i know that's your charm
You spend the whole day on the phone, you say well it helps you stay calm
You cling to my arm, yes i know that's your charm
And when i ask you what you want
You say do you mind hey crocodile
Well then could you give me some peace, you say well maybe for a while
Sometimes you know you could almost be a child
Oh must you tell me all your secrets
When it's hard enough to love you knowing nothing
We're living four flights up but
I swear right now it feels like underground
You are your own worst enemy, so don't expect my sympathy
Oh go back to your mother's house and cry your little heart out
You can drive them back to town in a beat-up grace kelly car
Looking like a friend of truman capote, looking exactly like you are
Yes, yes i know that's your charm
So don't ask me if i want you, only ask me if i must
I been blown around so long, don't know which senses to trust
Oh no, but i know that i must
Oh must you tell me all your secrets
When it's hard enough to love you knowing nothing
We're living four flights up
But i swear right now it feels like underground
lloyd cole and the commotions - patience
Early in the morning, just by the break of day
Well that's when my patience went away
She took her bags but she left all her clothes
She took her keys and left me out in the cold
Wearing a plastic coat
And the pressures of life through lack of patience
I get the pressures of her
Patience is a girl that I hate to love the way I do, but I do
She wakes me up in the morning
Through squeaking in my dreams
She took her bags but she left all her clothes
She took her keys and left me out in the cold
All because of patience
I get the pressures of life through lack of patience
I get the pressures of her
She beat me up and left me out in the pouring rain
Without no keys, without no reason to go back again
She left me empty-handed, she left me empty-hearted
Not no money, not nothing but the blues
All because of patience
I get the pressures of life through lack of patience
I get the pressures of her
She said the one thing that she needs is happiness
I don't believe that she's happy 'til she sees that I'm in distress
No, all because of patience
I get the pressures of life
Through lack of patience
I get the pressures of her
And I swoon
lloyd cole and the commotions - perfect skin
I choose my friends only far too well
I'm up on the pavement,
They're all down in the cellar
With their government grants and my i.Q.
They brought me down to size, academia blues
Louise is a girl, i know her well
She's up on the pavement, yes she's a weather girl
And i'm staying up here so i may be undone
She's inappropriate,
But then she's much more fun and
When she smiles my way
My eyes go out in vain
She's got perfect skin
Shame on you, you've got no sense of grace,
Shame on me
Ah just in case i might come to a conclusion
Other than that which is absolutely necessary
And that's perfect skin
Louise is the girl with the perfect skin
She says turn on the light,
Otherwise it can't be seen
She's got cheekbones like geometry
And eyes like sin
And she's sexually enlightened by cosmopolitan and
When she smiles my way
My eyes go out in vain
For her perfect skin
Yeah that's perfect skin
She takes me down to the basement
To look at her slides
Of her family life, pretty weird at times
At the age of ten she looked like greta garbo
And i loved her then, but how was she to know that
When she smiles my way
My eyes go out in vain
She's got perfect skin
Up eight flights of stairs
To her basement flat
Pretty confused huh,
Being shipped around like that
Seems we climbed so high now we're down so low
Strikes me the moral of this song must be there never has been one
lloyd cole and the commotions - rattlesnakes
Jodie wears a hat
Although it hasn't rained for six days
She says a girl needs a gun these days
Hey on account of all the rattlesnakes
She looks like eve marie saint in on the waterfront
She reads simone de beauvoir
In her american circumstance
She's less than sure
If her heart has come to stay in san jose
And her neverborn child still haunts her
As she speeds down the freeway
As she tries her luck with the traffic police
Out of boredom more than spite
She never finds no trouble, she tries too hard
She's obvious despite herself
She looks like eve marie saint
In on the waterfront
She says all she needs is therapy yeah
All you need is, love is all you need
Jodie never sleeps 'cause there are always needles in the hay
She says that a girl needs a gun these days
Hey on account of all the rattlesnakes
She looks like eve marie saint
In on the waterfront
As she reads simone de beauvoir
In her american circumstance
Her heart, heart's like crazy paving
Upside down and back to front
She says ooh, it's so hard to love
When love was your great disappointment
lloyd cole and the commotions - speedboat
Julie said we drink far too much coffee
Wine and cigarettes and we never get no sleep
I first met them at a riverboat party
Both of them were speeding i would say
I lived on the edge of all this indulgence
Taking notes and trusting in prudence
Julie said to jim why don't we jump in
While the water is cool and we are still friends
Some say that they o.D.'d on leonard cohen
Well i can see that river
Whenever i think about them
The river is cruel and the water is deep and blue
I was working then on my great unfinished novel
"please let introduce myself my name is ronald"
I was okay there until i lost my cool
Now let me introduce you to the rest of the crew
It wasn't my style to find surf in my eye
It was much more my style to find sand in my eyes
Though there is absolutely no truth to be discovered
Albeit truth then is nothing to be found
We academics are not easily discouraged
Lloyd you know wits they come three to the pound
Julie said to jim look at the state we're in
It was never her intention to conclude anything
It wasn't my style to find surf in my eye
It was much more my style to find sand in my eyes
It was just not my style to find surf in my eye
It was much more my style
To get sand kicked in my eyes
Sand in my eyes
lloyd cole and the commotions - sweetness
Oh, you're a precious little prude?
But tell me the truth now
Have you ever had a care in the world
So tell me what's it all about
You say oh you're so attacked
Well you'll never be so right
Oh you can cry yourself dry
But I`d be surprised if you can munster
Up a single crocodile
You'll never be a hopeless child
Throw caution to the wind
Forgive yourself your sins
And don't you know you
Really are the sweetest thing
There isn`t heart enough from you
Do you no longer care or feel that
You no longer have nothing left to prove
Oh tell me that it isn`t true
I wanted to tell you
That i used to admire you
Oh you know really that i don`t cared
No i never cared for you
But i used to read about you
And you oftenly would throw
Caution to the wind
And don't you know you
Really are the sweetest thing
lloyd cole and the commotions - the sea and the sand
The Sea and The Sand
Once there was the sea now there is sand
And no way now to wash these aching limbs
We have been brothers to this land
All of our boats have long been burned
Lord take this weight out of my bones
Your seventh sin may still yet be unlearned
Though I may burn out in the sand
Still I will learn to love this land
But if the world is truly turned
Surely then our hearts will burn again
And the sand will turn to soil
And the blood run in our veins again
and burn again
Once there was the sea now there is sand
And no way now to wash these aching limbs
Still you will take me by the hand
Yet I will learn to love this land
But if the world is truly turned
Surely then our hearts will burn again
And the sand will turn to soil
And the blood run in our veins again
and burn again
lloyd cole and the commotions - you will never be no good
You will never be no good
No you will never be no good
D'you know what i'd do if i could
Chop you up into firewood
Because you have sinned far too many times
You have sinned far too many times
And you will pay for all your crimes
You will never be no good
Not not ever no good
You know it`s hard to sympathise
You know it`s hard to sympathise
When you never tell nothing but lies
And it`s hard to sympathise
You say you're born in the barrel of a gun
Some say you're born in the barrel of a gun
You were your mother`s seventh son
And no excuse could be a good enough one
And don't you love her madly
You want to be her daddy
Well that won't do you no good
You might just slip into the priesthood
You will never be no good
No you will never be no good
D'you know what i'd do if i could
And then we'd all receive a knighthood
You'll never be no good
