Текст песни:

all I want is a mirror
so I can see this so called brighter day
i′m watching all the world crawl
back again
watching how it blows itself away

that′s all I want
that′s all I want
that′s all I
want
that′s all I want

all I want is destruction
wanna see it crumble beneath my toes
smell the way
my sore eyes burn away
that′s all I can have today

that′s all I want
that′s all I want
that′s all
I want
that′s all I want

all you want is to be me
so you can screw me up and don′t give a
damn
(′cos I′m a) crazy
little daisy to vile to breathe
i′m everything you want today

that′s all I
want
that′s all I want
that′s all I want
that′s all I want

Текст песни:

I smoked the shit that made you love
Drowned all your problems like a wife
Blanked out your anger
with my face
Wasted my days to hide disgrace

I did it all, did it all
All in the name of pity

You
loved to taunt me with your sex
Kicked up the memory in my head
Watch my neurosis building
up
Swallowed the truth your mind forgot

You did it all, did it all
All in the name of pity

You did
it all, did it all
All in the name of pity

In the name of pity
In the name of pity
In the name of
pity
Why, why, why, why, why, why, why, why

You tried and tried to use my life
To keep your
aggresion trivalized
Never an ego in control
(But) now who′s the shit that sold his soul

You did it
all, did it all
In the name of pity

You did it all, did it all
In the name

You did it all, did it
all
In the name of pity
In the name of pity
In the name of pity

Текст песни:

And here I stand, redskin fist of power
Clawing at the stains of racism
It turns to black, cos
you′re so very credible
But you keep losing track

′cos You don′t, my colour in your melting pot of
love
Where everybody is brown
So here I stand, knee deep in your soiled heritage
That′s so
charmingly underground

So here I stand, stand s-t-a-n-d
So here I stand, stand s-t-a-n-d
So here I
stand, stand s-t-a-n-d
So here I stand, stand s-t-a-n-d

So here we stand, I′m looking at my sad,
sad eyes
They slowly turn at rage
Oh what a shame, I can′t contain my basic nigga-rage
And lust for
violence

So here we are, the cry goes out for war
London′s east end burning to the ground
So here
we stand, blackened fist of power
Same old scarred-up-faces we condemn

So here I stand, stand
s-t-a-n-d
So here I stand, stand s-t-a-n-d
So here I stand, stand s-t-a-n-d
So here I stand, stand
s-t-a-n-d

So here I stand, stand s-t-a-n-d
So here I stand, stand s-t-a-n-d
So here I stand, stand
s-t-a-n-d
So here I stand, stand s-t-a-n-d

My nigga-rage, nigga-rage
nigga-rage,
nigga-rage
nigga-rage, rage
nigga-rage, rage
rage, rage, rage

Текст песни:

I′ve been there & your, frigid wit was far too greasy,
ain′t so slick, & it ain′t so damn
profound
I′ve been there done that, grilling that sadly sleazy,
ain′t so scared, of your cool, so
underground, & this is nothing,
that I thought I had, & this is nothing, that I thought I
had, with you
with you, with you
you′ve been there, an′ you reckon it was bubble lovie,
flirty
babe, now your thang has run around.
Still bored here, watch your slithering, so very waxy,
bass
thumps clear, & your bitch won′t, make a sound

Текст песни:

Skin

No I don’t want love you,

′cos I know who you are,

That′s
why i′ve been staying away from you,

That is why I ever call,

Huummm, I know
that you could possess my body,

And I know you could make me scrawl

I know
you′d have me shaken,

Have me climbing the wall

That′s why I don′t wanna′
love you



Lenny kravitz

′cos I know how you are

Sure
you say you′re right on and your righteous, girl

Come with me, I know you′d be right
off

′cos I know you could possess my body,

I know you could make me
crawl,

And just as hard as I fall for you girl,

Well you know you would fall
for me harder

That′s why I don′t want to love you



Skin
/>
′cos I know what you would do to my heart

You scourge me like a hot iron,
/>
Leave me whining all alone in the dark,

′cos I know that you would make me
suffer

I know that you would drive me wild ( that′s right ) wild

You would
take me in a circle

And when it gather you, I know you′d disappear

That′s
why I don′t wanna′ love you



Lenny kravitz

′cos I know you like
to be in charge,

And with me you know you can′t control me, baby,

′cos you
know you drive your car

I have you eating your ego ( I don′t think so !! )
/>
I′d make it pocket your pride, oh no

And just as hard as i′ve been loving you, oh
girl,

Well you know you′d be loving me harder



Lenny &
skin

That′s why I ain′t gonna′ love you



Lenny
/>
Harold, come on



Lenny & skin

That′s why I don′t
wanna love you

No I don′t want to love you x7

Текст песни:

Oohh...
I think I′ll stay in my little closet
I think I′ll stay where it′s nice and warm
There′s no
one to ask me embarrassing questions
There′s no one to wonder where I′ve been

I think I′ll stay in
my little posse
I think I′ll stay where I think I′m free
So they can protect me from my
infidelity
And I can believe they care about me

I can beat you, I can beat you
I love aggression, I
love aggression
I can reach you
Inside your dirty mind
But don′t talk about...
Skin, skin, black
skin, Sexuality
You′re not wanted
Skin, skin, black skin, Sexuality
You′re not wanted
You′re not
wanted ′cos you look too much like I do

I think I′ll stay in my little culture
I think I′ll try to
be, what you wanna see
And I can pretend I′m one of the girlies
I can pretend it′s no big deal

But
what do I do if I′m not black enough
What do I do if I′m too weird
I will deny me, I will survive
me
I will be one of my pressured peers

I can beat you,I can beat you
I love aggression,I love
aggression
I can reach you
Inside your dirty mind
But don′t talk about...
Skin, skin, black skin,
Sexuality
You′re not wanted
Skin, skin, black skin, Sexuality
You′re not wanted
You′re not wanted
′cos you look too much like I do

Текст песни:

"Blackie" in the closet. "Whitie" in the crowd.
Bugeyed, cause your later in the
mirror,
and you know you′re gonna ?? from your doglife.

Fixing up the motor
So you can smash′em in,
in their beds.
So you have all your never-ending glories,
But we know you gotta stick along with
the hard types.
But who′s gonna know you when it′s over ?
And who′s gonna know you when it′s over,
it′s over.
Who′s gonna show you,
If you just know that they don′t want you
When it′s over, when the
dogfight is over.

Givin′ you the shotlight,
But we know you are one of a blind.
Spooky, how you
always stick to brown-ones,
But they know you have it on your own
When it′s over, it′s over.
But
who′s gonna know you when it′s over ?
And who′s gonna know you when it′s over, it′s over.
And who′s
gonna show you,
That you should know that they don′t want you,
When it′s over, when the dogfight is
over.

But who′s gonna know you when it′s over?
Who′s gonna know you when it′s over?
And who′s gonna
show you
That you should know that they don′t want you
When it′s over, when the dogfight is
over.

But who′s gonna know you when it′s over?
Who′s gonna know you when it′s over, it′s over.
And
who′s gonna show you
That you should know that they don′t want you
When it′s over, when the dogfight
is over.

I never tell you what you want
I never tell you what you want
I gotta tell you what you
wanna love
I never wanted, what your lover want is gold.

Текст песни:

I called you brazen
called you whore right to your face
and watched you silently
and publicly
disgraced
I didn′t notice
when you strengthened like a vice
that you were trembling
and burned
beneath the ice

why don′t you weep
when I hurt you?
why don′t you weep
when I cut you?
you don′t
bleed
and the anger builds up inside
why don′t you weep
when I hurt you?
why don′t you weep
when I
cut you?
you don′t bleed
and the anger builds up inside

you said a prayer
and I betrayed you with
a kiss
I never realized that all
had come to this
so keep your dignity
don′t throw it all to
waste
stronger feelings
than you′ve ever learned to face

Repeat chorus

Текст песни:

I know your days are closing
Cool days we′ve said our hopes said
I don′t know what you find
But
there only breath away
You want to grieve forever
I hope we′d grieve together
Truth is we′re out of
time
′Cause we′re only a brath away
Suddenly everything′s blinded by your lies
No-one thinks, no-one
joined lips to make it right
We want to laugh forever
Lived days to full, together
Truth is we′re
out of time
′Cause we′re only a breath away
