THE NEW DRUG
I was moody I was lonely I was nowhere doing nothing
I was looking at the stars but the stars never looked at me
jolly like an office party for a funeral store
I was gazing through the window dreaming endlessly

Every day and every hour every minute of my life
like a stranger like a shadow time would fly and pass me by
friday evening I saw Jenny with a brand new one (hello Jenny!)
she says she’s grinning all the time and I think I know why

No more questions no more tensions no more hassles anymore
light and peaceful like a feather I’ll just get carried away
I’ll get money I’ll get honours and a brand new life
always fine and always happy ‘till the day I die

Adieu galères et misères je me fous du monde entier
et je me sens si légère que le vent pourrait m’emporter
aucun effet secondaire ni de prix à payer
ce soir je serai la plus belle pour aller danser.

You can burn me I don’t mind
take me down, take me with you
you can hurt me I won’t cry
take me down, take me with you.

CINDERELLA
Cinderella take it easy
you know it couldn't last forever
which wicked fairy said you should be
on every screen and every cover?

At seventeen you scoured the country
from one audition to another
look! Cinderella waves on page three
what a yummy lovely creature!

Detox… retox…

It's feeling like a Sunday morning
a JD and a fag for breakfast
the lights have gone and no one's paying
attention to your inner features

Cinderella broke and lonely
your prince has gone away forever
what happened to your loving army?
I saw them arse-licking another

Cinderella take it easy
you know it couldn't last forever
which wicked fairy said you should be
on every screen and every cover?

It's feeling like a Sunday morning
a JD and a fag for breakfast
the lights have gone and no one's watching
anonymous like every other.

GOODBYE MORTALS
Round of applause
heavenly creatures I'm yours
ready to take off today

A knowing look at the skies
I'll wave my final goodbyes
and fly to Centaurus A

I want new pleasures and friends
with seven arms and six heads
up in the Great Galaxy

Alice is boring and plain
and Marie-Anne is the same
the sky is all I can see

Every night I look at the stars
dream of life on Venus and Mars
every night I look at the sky
I'm gonna touch it, at least I can try Goodbye mortals goodbye worms,
my spaceship has to go
how long and where? god only knows down on my planet life is far too slow carry on crawling but I just won't languish here so Houston let me go
I don't want it soon I want it now
wide open space, I'm coming
goodbye... goodbye... goodbye mortals.

(Cassiopea, Sirius, Andromeda, Aries...
my name's Captain K., 10 years-old , let's go!)

SUNDAY GANGSTER
Boy, your flashy car
and diamond rings
mean nothing to me

Boy, your thousand lies
and chat up lines
sound corny to me

You can buy the world
and all the girls
but you won't buy me

Champagne ,
Gucci and a gun
but you'll weep on my shoulders
when you fall on your face
Diamonds,
shining like the sun
and you hold your head high
like you’re God’s chosen one

Little wanker,
take your hands off me
Al Pacino
you will never be
I don't wanna please you
I don't wanna hear you
I don't wanna see you
I don't wanna be with you

QUEEN OF LONDON
Queen of London no one knows for sure
what you've done and what you're famous for
drowned in glitter and champagne
lying in the sun all day,
lying in the sun all day

Here they come the one-day superstars
I just don't know who the stalkers are
your attention, here she comes
lying in the sun all day
the Mirror and the Sun, OK

Exclusive!
I saw you in a mag again
breaking up with a guy again
a real Greek tragedy
but you had great hair.

I saw you in a mag again
rolling your starry eyes again
posing for eternity
yeah you had great hair

DON'T TURN YOUR EYES ON ME
It could be summer
and I could be by your side
just lying by the sea
and sipping champagne in the sun

It could be summer
and you could see by my eyes
that I'm in love with you
nothing would matter anymore

It could be somewhere
like Montserrat or Shanghai
away from Battersea
I could see new stars in the sky

We could be up there
we could be flying so high
and life's a fantasy
we'd be so perfect you and I

Don't turn your eyes on me
I'd rather be blind, you see
If I throw knives at your face
and stick needles into your flesh
will you think of me?
Don't turn your eyes on me
I'd rather be blind, you see
If I draw scars on your face
and carve my name into your flesh
will you remember me?

VACANT GIRL
It’s so boring and grey
someone take me away
sixty-five words a minute, fifty phone calls a day.

Dream and look at the sky
so happy I could cry
on my own little planet ‘till the end of all times

Vacant girl,
and this moron is yelling on my radio
it seems like a year, seven hours to go
at my highest low
oh vacant girl, just can't say no.

Vacant girl
and this moron is yelling on my radio
how many years of filing I don’t know
my life's so slow
oh vacant girl, just can't let go.

Watch the computer screen
hear the customers scream
good morning Karen speaking what the fuck do you want?
Someone kick in my brain
think I'm going insane
platform 3, home and telly then tomorrow again

Vacant girl,
and this moron etc.
I must be dead, I must be dead
It's just the same always the same
I need to get away from here, or disappear.

NINOTCHKA (PART 1)
Lighten up Ninotchka
come dance away the night with me
don’t play me icy queen
Two sinners in the night
pink champagne and vaseline
now let the fun begin

Ninotchka Ninotchka
so serious and serene
Ninotchka Ninotchka
your face of porcelain

Take my hand Ninotchka
we don’t need your paradise
to get high in the sky
Allumes-moi Ninotchka
allez viens danser avec moi
et faire n’importe quoi

Ninotchka Ninotchka
so serious and serene
Ninotchka Ninotchka
your face of porcelain

NINOTCHKA (PART 2)
Bye,
I won't come home today
there's nothing else to say
I've made up my mind

Bye,
I won't be told again
to believe and behave
I've opened my eyes

Ninotchka,
the world can crash down I don't mind
don't look down,
no old guy plotting in the sky
Ninotchka Ninotchka,
just the stars the moon and you and I
betrayers and sinners,
two lovers dancing in the night.

ONE GIRL RUMBA
Who’s that girl in front of me?
she looks so sad she looks like me
don’t you run away from here
I want your smiles and company

Let’s go rumba
one-girl rumba

Who’s that girl in front of me?
she looks so wild she looks so free
hold me tight and dance with me
I’m on my own, that’s company

Let’s go rumba
one-girl rumba.
