Suedehead - Morrissey (1988)

Why do you come here?
And why, why do you hang around?
I'm so sorry, oh
I'm so sorry

Why do you come here
When you know it makes things hard for me?
When you know, oh
Why do you come?

Why do you telephone?
And why send me silly notes?
I'm so sorry, oh
I'm so sorry

Why do you come here
When you know it makes things hard for me?
When you know, oh
Why do you come?

You had to sneak into my room
Just to read my diary
"it was just to see, just to see"
All the things you knew I'd written about you
Oh, so many illustrations

Oh, but i'm so very sickened
Oh, i am so sickened now

Oh, it was a good lay, good lay
It was a good lay, good lay
It was a good lay, good lay
Oh-oh

It was a good lay, good lay
It was a good lay, good lay
Oh, it was a good lay, good lay
Oh-oh, oh-oh

Oh, it was a good lay
It was a good lay
Oh, a good lay
It was a good lay
Good lay, good lay
Oh-oh, oh-oh, oh-oh
It was a good lay, good lay

Everyday Is Like Sunday - Morrissey (1988)

Trudging slowly over wet sand
Back to the bench where your clothes were stolen
This is the coastal town
That they forgot to close down
Armageddon - come Armageddon!
Come, Armageddon! Come!

Everyday is like Sunday
Everyday is silent and grey

Hide on the promenade
Etch a postcard:
"How I Dearly Wish I Was Not Here"
In the seaside town
that they forgot to bomb
Come, Come, Come - nuclear bomb

Everyday is like Sunday
Everyday is silent and grey

Trudging back over pebbles and sand
And a strange dust lands on your hands
And on your face
On your face
On your face
On your face

Everyday is like Sunday
"Win Yourself A Cheap Tray"
Share some greased tea with me
Everyday is silent and grey

Charlotte Anne - Julian Cope (1988)

And in my room
I'm alone in my room
And maybe staying here for just awhile
And in my casket
I'm alone in my gloom
And maybe staying here for awhile

Oh, can't you see light is only in your eyes?
Would I be guilty?
Oh, would I be?
The sound you bring is an antiquated thing
So please don't look to me for guidance

Charlotte Anne
I do understand
Charlotte Anne
I do understand
Charlotte Anne
I do understand

My splendid art
Oh, my sad profession
Now stick with me and I'll betray you
For should I lose my bad depression
My splendid art
I will betray you

Charlotte Anne
I do understand
Charlotte Anne
I do understand
Charlotte Anne
I do understand

Haul me out of the water
Haul me onto the land
Beneath the sky
There is an open fire
I do understand

Charlotte Anne
I do understand
Charlotte Anne
I do understand
Charlotte Anne
I do understand

Charlotte Anne
I do understand
Charlotte Anne
I do understand
Charlotte Anne
I do understand

Charlotte Anne
Charlotte Anne
Charlotte Anne

Somebody That I Used to Know - Gotye (2011)

now and then i think of when we were together
like when you said you felt so happy you could die
told myself that you were right for me
but felt so lonely in your company
but that was love, and it's an ache i still remember

you can get addicted to a certain kind of sadness
like resignation to the end, always the end
so when we found that we could not make sense
well, you said that we would still be friends
but i'll admit that i was glad it was over

but you didn't have to cut me off
make out like it never happened and that we were nothing
and i don't even need your love
no, you didn't have to stoop so low
have your friends collect your records and then change your number
i guess that i don't need that, though
now you're just somebody that i used to know
now you're just somebody that i used to know
now you're just somebody that i used to know

now and then i think of all the times you screwed me over
but had me believing it was always something that i'd done
and i don't wanna live that way
reading into every word you say
you said that you could let it go
and i wouldn't catch you hung up on somebody that you used to know

but you didn't have to cut me off
make out like it never happened and that we were nothing
and i don't even need your love
but you treat me like a stranger, and that feels so rough
no, you didn't have to stoop so low
have your friends collect your records and then change your number
i guess that i don't need that, though
now you're just somebody that i used to know

somebody (i used to know)
somebody (now you're just somebody that i used to know)
somebody (i used to know)
somebody (now you're just somebody that i used to know)
i used to know
that i used to know
i used to know
somebody

The Captain Of Her Heart - Double (1985)

It was way past midnight
And she still couldn't fall asleep
This night the dream was leavin'
She tried so hard to keep

And with the new day's dawning
She felt it driftin' away
Not only for a cruise
Not only for a day

Too long ago, too long apart
She couldn't wait another day for
The captain of her heart

As the day came up she made a stop
She stopped waiting another day for
The captain of her heart

Too long ago, too long apart
She couldn't wait another day for
The captain of her heart

Too long ago, too long apart
She couldn't wait another day for
The captain of her heart

As the day came up she made a stop
She stopped waiting another day for
The captain of her heart

Too long ago, too long apart
She couldn't wait another day for
The captain of her heart

Eurasian Eyes - Corey Hart (1985)

Eurasian eyes are watchin' me
Like a river, oh, you flow through me
Eurasian eyes are runnin' still
Whispered moments, ooh, cut the chill
When eurasian eyes are watchin' me

Do you feel the passion in me?

Cos I'm the one that said I'd never care
For someone like you
Now I'm the one who lacks the eloquence to say

(Ooh to say) that when the world is cold
With no one to hold
I can only see eurasian eyes
If love won't lie
‘cause the truth would cry
That I can only see eurasian eyes

Eurasian eyes inspire me
Look for the magic until I see
Eurasian eyes so honestly

Do you feel the passion in me?

‘cause I'm the one that said I'd never care
For someone like you
Now you're inside me and I won't defend
What I want to do for you

(But hon I said)
Now I'm the one who lacks the eloquence
To say, ooh, to say

When the world is cold
With no one to hold
I can only see eurasian eyes
(You know) if love won't lie
Cos the truth would cry
I can only see eurasian eyes
And if my heart is blind
Then why do I find
That I can only see eurasian eyes, oh no no

When the world is cold
With no one to hold
I can only see eurasian eyes
(You know) if love won't lie
Cos the truth would cry, yeah
I can only see eurasian eyes
And if my heart is blind
Then why do I find, you know
That I can only see eurasian eyes

and when the world is cold
With no one to hold
I only see eurasian eyes
eurasian eyes

Futile Devices - Sufjan Stevens (2010)

It's been a long, long time since I've memorized your face
It's been four hours now since I've wandered through your place
And when I sleep on your couch I feel very safe
And when you bring the blankets I cover up my face

I do love you
I do love you

And when you play guitar I listen to the strings buzz
The metal vibrates underneath your fingers
And when you crochet I feel mesmerized and proud
And I would say I love you, but saying it out loud

It's hard so I won't say it at all
And I won't stay very long
But you are the life I needed all along
I think of you as my brother
Although that sounds dumb
And words are futile devices

Visions Of Gideon - Sufjan Stevens (2017)

I have loved you for the last time
Is it a video? Is it a video?
I have touched you for the last time
Is it a video? Is it a video?

For the love, for laughter, I flew up to your arms
Is it a video? Is it a video?
For the love, for laughter, I flew up to your arms
Is it a video? Is it a video? Is it a video?

I have loved you for the last time
Visions of Gideon, visions of Gideon
And I have kissed you for the last time
Visions of Gideon, visions of Gideon

For the love, for laughter, I flew up to your arms
Is it a video? (Is it a video?) Is it a video? (Is it a video?)
For the love, for laughter, I flew up to your arms
Is it a video? (Is it a video?) Is it a video? (Is it a video?)

For the love, for laughter, I flew up to your arms
Visions of Gideon (visions of Gideon), visions of Gideon (visions of Gideon)
For the love, for laughter, I flew up to your arms
Visions of Gideon (visions of Gideon), visions of Gideon (visions of Gideon), visions of Gideon

Visions of Gideon, visions of Gideon, visions of Gideon
Visions of Gideon (is it a video?), visions of Gideon (is it a video?), visions of Gideon (is it a video?)
Visions of Gideon (is it a video?), visions of Gideon (is it a video?), visions of Gideon (is it a video?)
Visions of Gideon (is it a video?), visions of Gideon (is it a video?), visions of Gideon (is it a video?)

(Is it a video?) (is it a video?)

Mystery Of Love - Sufjan Stevens (2017)

Oh, to see without my eyes
The first time that you kissed me
Boundless by the time I cried
I built your walls around me

White noise, what an awful sound
Fumbling by Rogue River
Feel my feet above the ground
Hand of God, deliver me

Oh, oh woe-oh-woah is me
The first time that you touched me
Oh, will wonders ever cease?
Blessed be the mystery of love

Lord, I no longer believe
Drowned in living waters
Cursed by the love that I received
From my brother's daughter

Like Hephaestion, who died
Alexander's lover
Now my riverbed has dried
Shall I find no other?

Oh, oh woe-oh-woah is me
I'm running like a plover
Now I'm prone to misery
The birthmark on your shoulder reminds me

How much sorrow can I take?
Blackbird on my shoulder
And what difference does it make
When this love is over?

Shall I sleep within your bed?
River of unhappiness
Hold your hands upon my head
'Til I breathe my last breath

Oh, oh woe-oh-woah is me
The last time that you touched me
Oh, will wonders ever cease?
Blessed be the mystery of love

Cry Little Sister - Gerard McMahon (1987)

Last fire will rise
Behind those eyes
Black house will rock
Blind boys don't lie

Immortal fear
That voice so clear
Through broken walls
That scream I hear

Cry, little sister! (Thou shalt not fall)
Come, come to your brother! (Thou shalt not die)
Unchain me, sister! (Thou shalt not fear)
Love is with your brother! (Thou shalt not kill)

Blue masquerade
Strangers look on
When will they learn
This loneliness?

Temptation heat
Beats like a drum
Deep in your veins
I will not lie

Little sister! (Thou shalt not fall)
Come, come to your brother! (Thou shalt not die)
Unchain me, sister! (Thou shalt not fear)
Love is with your brother! (Thou shalt not kill)

My Shangri-Las
I can't forget
Why you were mine
I need you now!

Cry, little sister! (Thou shalt not fall)
Come, come to your brother! (Thou shalt not die)
Unchain me, sister! (Thou shalt not fear)
Love is with your brother! (Thou shalt not kill)

Cry, little sister! (Thou shalt not fall)
Come, come to your brother! (Thou shalt not die)
Unchain me, sister! (Thou shalt not fear)
Love is with your brother! (Thou shalt not kill)
