Here are the lyrics to my favourite songs from the british band Placebo. I have heaps of Information on them for those looking for it.. but I'm sorry to say, I'm a little drunk and can't really be bothered right now, but it is coming soon...
Oh and, by the way.. I dedicate this page to my friend Adam...
Nancy Boy
Alcoholic kind of mood, lose my clothes, lose my lube
cruising for a piece of fun, looking out for number one
different partner every night, so narcotic outta sight
what a gas, what a beautiful ass.
And it all breaks down at the role reversal,
got the muse in my head she's universal,
spinnin' me round she's coming over me.
And it all breaks down at the first rehearsal,
got the muse in my head she's universal,
spinnin' me round she's coming over me.
Kind of buzz that lasts for days
had some help from insect ways
comes across all shy and coy
just another nancy boy.
Woman man or modern monkey
just another happy junkie
fifty pounds, press my button going down.
And it all breaks down at the role reversal
got the muse in my head she's universal
spinnin' me round she's coming over me.
And it all breaks down at the first rehearsal,
got the muse in my head she's universal,
spinnin' me round she's coming over me.
Does his makeup in his room
douse himself with cheap perfume eye-holes in a paper bag
greatest lay I ever had
kind of guy who mates for life
gotta help him find a wife
we're a couple, when our bodies double.
And it all breaks down at the role reversal
got the muse in my head she's universal,
spinnin' me round she's coming over me.
And it all breaks down at the first rehearsal,
got the muse in my head she's universal,
spinnin' me round she's coming over me.
And it all breaks down at the role reversal,
got the muse in my head she's universal,
spinnin' me round she's coming over me.
And it all breaks down at the first rehearsal
got the muse in my head she's universal,
spinnin' me round she's coming over me.
I Know
I know, you love the song but not the singer
I know, you've got me wrapped around your finger
I know, you want the sin without the sinner
I know
I know
I know, the past will catch you up as you run faster
I know, the last in line is always called a bastard
I know, the past will catch you up as you run faster
I know I know
I know, you cut me loose in contradiction
I know, I'm all wrapped up in sweet attrition
I know, it's asking for your benediction
I know
I know
I know, the past will catch you up as you run faster
I know, the last in line is always called a bastard.
I know, the past will catch you up as you run faster
I know
I know
I know, the past will catch you up as you run faster
I know, the last in line is always called a bastard
I know, the past will catch you up as you run faster I know
I know.
Come Home
Stuck between the do or die, I feel emaciated.
Hard to breathe I try and try, I'll get asphyxiated.
Swing from the tallest height, with nothing left to hold on to.
Every sky is blue, but not for me and you.
Come home, come home, come home, come home.
Glass and petrol vodka gin, it feels like breathing methane.
Throw yourself from skin to skin, and still it doesn't dull the pain.
Vanish like a lipstick trace, it always blows me away.
Every cloud is grey, with dreams of yesterday.
Come home, come home, come home, come home,
Come home, come home, come home, come home.
Always goes against the grain, and I can try and deny it
Give a monkey half a brain, and still he's bound to fry it.
Now the happening scene is dead, I used to want to be there too.
Every sky is blue, but not for me and you.
Come home, come home, come home, come home,
come home, come home, come home, come home.
Teenage Angst
Shine the headlight, straight into my eyes.
Like the roadkill, I'm paralysed.
You see through my disguise
At the drive-in, double feature,
pull the lever, break the fever
and say your last goodbyes.
Since I was born I started to decay.
Now nothing ever ever goes my way
One fluid gesture, like stepping back in time.
Trapped in amber, petrified.
And still not satisfied
Airs and social graces, elocution so divine.
I'll stick to my needle, and my favourite waste of time,
both spineless and sublime.
Since I was born I started to decay.
Now nothing ever - ever goes my way.
Bionic
Harder faster, forever after,
harder faster, forever after,
harder faster, forever after,
forever after.
None of you can make the grade,
none of you can make the grade,
none of you can make the grade,
none of you can make the grade.
Harder faster, forever after,
harder faster, forever after,
harder faster, forever after,
forever after.
None of you can make the grade,
none of you can make the grade,
none of you can make the grade,
none of you can make the grade.
36 Degrees
We were tight, but it falls apart as silver turns to blue.
Waxing with a candlelight, and burning just for you.
Allocate your sentiment, and stick it in a box.
I've never been an extrovert, but I'm still breathing.
Someone tried to do me, ache (it's what I'm afraid of)
With hindsight, I was more than blind, lost without a clue.
Thought I was getting carat gold, and what I got was you.
Stuck inside the circumstance, it's lonely at the top.
I've always been an introvert
happily bleeding.
Someone tried to do me ache (it's what i'm afraid of)
4 7 2 3 9 8 5 - I gotta breathe to stay alive,
and 1 4 2 9 7 8 - feels like I'm gonna suffocate.
14 16 22 - this skin that turns to blister blue.
Shoulders toes and knees, I'm 36 degrees,
shoulders toes and knees, I'm 36 degrees,
shoulder toes and knees, I'm 36 degrees,
shoulders toes and knees, I'm 36 degrees.
WITHOUT YOU I'M NOTHING
Pure Morning
A friend in need is a friend indeed
A friend with weed is better
A friend with breasts and all the rest
A friend who's dressed in leather
A friend in need is a friend indeed
A friend who'll tease is better
Our thoughts compressed
Which makes us blessed
And makes for stormy weather
A friend in need is a friend indeed
My Japanese is better
And when she's pressed she will undress
And then she's boxing clever
A friend in need is a friend indeed
A friend who bleeds is better
My friend confessed she passed the test
And we will never sever
Day's dawning, skins crawling.
Day's dawning, skins crawling.
Day's dawning, skins crawling.
Day's dawning, skins crawling.
Pure morning, pure morning.
Pure morning, pure morning.
A friend in need is a friend indeed

And we will never sever
Day's dawning, skins crawling.
Day's dawning, skins crawling.
Day's dawning, skins crawling.

Pure morning, pure morning.
Pure morning, pure morning.

Don't you wish you'd never met her?

You Ddon't Care About Us
If it's a bad day, you try to suffocate
Another memory scarred. If it's a bad case
Then you accelerate, You're in the getaway car
You don't care about us, Oh...
You don't care about us, Oh...
You don't care about us, Oh...
You don't care about us
If it's a bad case, You're on the rampage
Another memory scarred, You're in the wrong place
You're on the back page, You're in the getaway car
You don't care about us, Oh...
You don't care about us, Oh...
You don't care about us, Oh...
You don't care about us
It's your age, It's my rage, It's your age, It's my rage.
You're too complicated, We should separate and
You're just confiscated, You're exasperated,
This degeneration, Mental masturbation,
Think I'll leave it all behind, Save this bleeding heart of mine.
It's a matter of trust, It's a matter of trust
It's a matter of trust, It's a matter of trust
Because,
you don't care about us, Oh...
You don't care about us, Oh...
You don't care about us, Oh...
You don't care about us
Background:
You're too complicated
We should separate and
You're just confiscated
You're exasperated
This degeneration
Mental masturbation
Think I'll leave it all behind
Save this bleeding heart of mine
It's your age, It's my rage
It's your age, It's my rage
Ask For Answers
Time to pass you to the test,
Hanging on my lover's breath,
Always coming second best,
Pictures of my lover's chest,
Get through, this night,
there are no second chances,
This time, I might,
To ask the sea for answers,
Always falling to the floor,
softer than it was before,
Dog boy media whore
it's who the hell you take me for
Give up this fight
there are no second chances
This time I might
To ask the sea for answers
These bonds are shackle free
wrapped in lust and lunacy
Tiny touch of jealousy
these bonds are shackle free
Get through this night
there are no second chances
This time I might
To ask the sea for answers
These bonds are shackle free
These bonds are shackle free
These bonds are shackle free
These bonds are shackle free
Get through this
there are no second chances
This time To ask the sea for answers
Without You I'm Nothing
Strange infatuation seems to grace the evening tide
I'll take it by your side
Such imagination seems to help the feelings slide
I'll take it by your side
Instant correlation sucks and breeds a pack of lies
I'll take it by your side
Over saturation curls the skin and tans the hide
I'll take it by your side
tick tock
tick tock
tick tock
tick tick
tick
tick tick tock
I'm unclean, a libertine
And every time you vent your spleen,
I seem to lose the power of speech,
Your slipping slowly from my reach.
You grow me like an Evergreen,
You never see the lonely me at all
I...
Take the plan spin it sideways
I...
Fall
Without you I'm nothing
Without you I'm nothing
Without you I'm nothing
Take the plan spin it sideways
Without you I'm nothing at all
Allergic (To Thoughts Of Mother Earth)
Any means in your horizon
Heaven in a tourniquet
The after life to keep your eyes on
bitter pill you take you take today
With expert levitation forward
polished to the nth degree
it takes it's smile from every children
you take the beating
Any means in your horizon
Every (thing?)mink walks two by two
we gamble to be born again
You know I never wanted to
With expert levitation forward
polished to the nth degree
it takes it's smile from every children
you take the beating
the light divining
the light defining
the light divining
the light dividing
Don't let me down
let me-he
let me down
don't let me
don't let me down
let me-he
let me down

Don't let me down
let me-he
let me down

The Crawl
It takes the pain away
that could not make you stay
it's way too broke to fix
no glue, no bag of tricks
Lay me down, the lie will unfurl
lay me down to crawl
Your smile would make me sneeze
when we were Siamese
Amazing grace in here
I'd pay to have you near
Lay me down the lie will unfurl
lay me down to crawl
Don't go and lose your face
at some stranger's place
and don't forget to breathe
and pay before you leave
Lay me down the lie will unfurl
lay me down to crawl
Lay me down the lie will unfurl
lay me down to crawl
Every You Every Me
Sucker love is heaven sent
You pucker up our passion's spent
My heart's a tart your body's rent
My body's broken yours is bent
Carve your name into my arm
Instead of stressed I lie here charmed
Cuz there's nothing else to do
Every me and every you
Sucker love a box I choose
No other box I choose to use
Another love I would abuse
No circumstances could excuse
In the shape of things to come
Too much poison come undone
Cuz there's nothing else to do,
Every me and every you.
Every me and every you,
Every Me...he
Sucker love is known to swing.
Prone to cling and waste these things.
Pucker up for heaven's sake.
There's never been so much at stake.
I serve my head up on a plate.
It's only comfort, calling late.
Cuz there's nothing else to do,
Every me and every you.
Every me and every you,
Every Me...he
Every me and every you,
Every Me...he
Like the naked leads the blind.
I know I'm selfish, I'm unkind.
Sucker love I always find,
Someone to bruise and leave behind.
All alone in space and time.
There's nothing here but what here's mine.
Something borrowed, something blue.
Every me and every you.
Every me and every you,
Every Me...he
Every me and every you,
Every Me...he (x4)
My Sweet Prince
Never thought you'd make me perspire.
Never thought I'd do you the same.
Never thought I'd fill with desire.
Never thought I'd feel so ashamed.
Me and the dragon can chase all the pain away.
So before I end my day, remember..
My sweet prince, you are the one
My sweet prince
you are the one
Never thought I'd have to retire
Never thought I'd have to abstain
Never thought all this could back fire
Close up the hole in my vein
Me and my valuable friend
can fix all the pain away
So before I end my day
remember
My sweet prince
you are the one
My sweet prince
you are the one
you are the one
you are the one
you are the one
you are the one
Never thought I'd get any higher
Never thought you'd fuck with my brain
Never thought all this could expire
Never thought you'd go break the chain
Me and you baby,
still flush all the pain away
So before I end my day
remember
My sweet prince
you are the one
My sweet prince
you are the one
you are the one
you are the one
you are the one
you are the one
you are the one
you are the one
you are the one
you are the one
My sweet prince
My sweet prince
Summer's Gone
Cue to your face so forsaken
Crushed by the way that you cry
Cue to your face so forsaken
What a surprise
You try to break the mould
before you get too old
you try to break the mould
before you die
Cue to your heart that is racing
stung by the look in your eye
Cue to your heart that is racing
What a surprise
you try to break the mould
before you get too old
you try to break the mould
before you die
Cue your face so forsaken
crushed by the way that you cry
Cue your face so forsaken
Say goodbye
Sing for your lover
Like blood from a stone
Sing for your lover
Who's waiting at home
If you sing when you're high
And you're dry as a bone
Then you must realise
That you're never alone
And you'll sing with the dead instead
You try and break the mould,
before you get too old
you try and break the mould,
before you die

Burger Queen
Slightly bemused by his lack of direction
Hey You, Hey You
Came to this world by caesarean section
Hey You, Hey You
Chooses his clothes to match his pallid complexion
Hey You, Hey You
Now it takes him all day just to get an erection
Hey You, Things aren't what they seem.
Makes no sense at all
Things aren't what they seem
Luxemburger Queen,
He's a Burger Queen.
Slightly bemused by the total rejection,
Hey You, Hey You,
