Church Of Noise [ < top ]

She goes places I won't go
She knows things that I don't know

Welcome to the church of noise
Welcome to the church of noise

(It takes more than intellect to be a musician)
(Put your soul into it)
(OK?)

This goes way beyond beliefs
Take this far away from me

Welcome to the church of noise
Welcome to the church of noise

Empire's singing on the back door step
Showband's dying on my radio set
Every light shines out on a sunday
Heaven sent with guilt and regret
I am lost in your acetylene light, so bad
One more trip, one more trip to my head
To my head now

Red skies, summer marches on
We should go away together, mongrels in a mess forever

Welcome to the church of noise (welcome, welcome)
Welcome to the church of noise (welcome, welcome)
Welcome to the church of noise (welcome, welcome)
Welcome to the church of noise (welcome, welcome)

(Welcome, welcome)

Suing God [ < top ]

I'm suing God
For spiritual harassment and the costs
I'm suing God
Our business has been working at a loss

What if no one meets me on the other side?
Say goodbye to time-shares in paradise
What if no one meets me on the other side?
What if no one meets me?

I'm suing God
For breach of peace and advertising laws
I'm suing God
I'll get him on the Darwin get-out clause

What if no one meets me on the other side?
Say goodbye to time-shares in paradise
What if no one meets me on the other side?
What if no one meets me?

What if no one meets me on the other side?
Say goodbye to time-shares in paradise
What if no one meets me on the other side?
What if no one meets me?

60 Watt Bulb [ < top ]

(One, two)
(One, two, three, four)

I don't need a spotlight
I've got a 60 watt bulb
It shines a light on the music I like
It shines a light on me and my friends

I've got a 60 watt bulb
And a concrete coat
It shines a light on me and my friends
It shines a light on the music I like

I've got a 60 watt bulb
My spotlight shining above
I'm gonna shine a light, a light on my friends
I'm gonna shine a light, a light on my friends

I've got a 60 watt bulb
My music and a concrete coat
I've got a 60 watt bulb
Sealed in my sleeping floor

60 watt bulb
60 watt bulb
60 watt bulb
60 watt bulb

I've got a 60 watt bulb
It's my bright idea
Stand close and I'll steam up your glasses
Beam my vision up your grainy asses

I've got a 60 watt bulb
My spotlight shining above
I've got a 60 watt bulb
Yeah, 60 watt bulb

60 watt bulb
60 watt bulb
60 watt bulb
60 watt bulb, yeah

I've got a 60 watt bulb
