La lune trop blême
Pose un diadème
Sur tes cheveux roux
La lune trop rousse
De gloire éclabousse
Ton jupon plein d'trous

La lune trop pâle
Caresse l'opale
De tes yeux blasés
Princesse de la rue
Soit la bienvenue
Dans mon coeur blessé

The stairways up to la butte can make the wretched sigh
While windmill wings of the moulins shelter you and I

Ma p'tite mandigote
Je sens ta menotte
Qui cherche ma main
Je sens ta poitrine
Et ta taille fine
J'oublie mon chagrin

Je sens sur tes lèvres
Une odeur de fièvre
De gosse mal nourri
Et sous ta caresse
Je sens une ivresse
Qui m'anéantit

The stairways up to la butte can make the wretched sigh
While windmill wings of the moulins shelter you and I

Mais voilà qu'il trotte
La lune se flotte
La princesse aussi
La la la la la

Mon rêve évanoui

Les escaliers de la butte sont durs aux miséreux
Les ailes des moulins protégent les amoureux

Rose That Needs Water

Let me lay my head on your heart
Let me lay my head on your heart
And you can give this rose some water
You can give this rose some water now

Nothing ever is what it seems
Nothing ever seems what it is
And though I may be sliding by ya
I'm a rose that needs some water now

I've been spinning round my glass ring 
Grim personality
Slowly bending towards the shadows of waiting to swallow me
So if thorns are made when wretched
I'm cutting through the chatter
I'm a rose that needs some water now

All the world I'm happy to see
And all the world it's going to be
To maybe find or borrow
A place to put tomorrow's pain

Ocean crossings 
Mountains to climb
And history a waste of time
Well she may just set to plunder
This rose that needs some water now

I'll come near you
Eyes beneath your eyes
Where I hope to be
All the blueness
Blue, blue, blueness
Imagine I'll untangle and fashion

So if thorns are made when wretched 
I'm cutting through the chatter
I'm a rose that needs some water 
Water
Water
Now
Now
Now
Now
Now

Do You Love An Apple? 

Do you love an apple? 
Do you love a pear? 
Do you love a laddy with curly brown hair?
Why yes I love him, I'll never deny him, 
I'll always love him 'till the day that I die

Before I got married I wore a black shall,
But after I'm married, I wore bugger-all
But still I love him, I'll never deny him, 
I'll always love him 'till the day that I die

He stands on the corner, a fag in his mouth,
his hands in his pockets he whistles me out
But still I love him, I'll never deny him, 
I'll always love him 'till the day that I die

Do you love an apple?
Do you love a pear? 
Do you love a laddy with curly brown hair?
Why yes I love him, I'll never deny him, 
I'll always love him 'till the day that I die

Instant Pleasure
 
I don't want somebody to love me
Just give me sex whenever I want it
'Cause all I ask for is instant pleasure
Instant pleasure, instant pleasure

You in the traffic for all eternity
How could that speed be where you want to be?
Said don't you really want instant pleasure
Instant pleasure, instant pleasure

Think that all these folks get laid?
Do it cause their pain is great?
What you thinkin' anyways?

If drinkin' coffee's your idea of really cool
You can't expect no crazy chick to notice you
Just sittin there dreamin' instant pleasure
Instant pleasure, instant pleasure
Instant pleasure, instant pleasure

If you want someone a friend to be
Guess you'll have to win the lottery
But till then repeat after me

I don't want somebody to love me
Just give me sex whenever I want it
'Cause all I ask for is instant pleasure
Instant pleasure, instant pleasure
Instant pleasure, instant pleasure
Instant pleasure, instant pleasure

I don't want somebody to love me
I don't want somebody to love me...

Ashes

I'm no Rasputin, you ain't no Rapunzel
I have willingly fallen, and you have cut your own hair
Thought we needed motion, at least until the war kicks in
I go out in the world with you the last night of the burning flare

Trains will follow trains under the dun, under the moon
And I do believe that all that I can do is croon
And I do believe that there was a morning that I saw your true love
burning 
next to me

But now there's ashes, from exquisite eyelashes
So far away, past the border, past the turnstyle
And even I know, and I do believe, and I do believe that there was a morning 
I saw your true love burning next to me

But now there's ashes, from exquisite eyelashes
So far away, past the border, past the turnstyle
Sometimes I wonder if it is true humility
For this humiliation

Walking in the twilight, walking in the crows of day
From this station of passion, I go

Rainbow Crossing

Well since you are my arch enemy, I'm gonna give you some time
With a heart that's full of alcohol water can be wine
Hope the rocks are not too slippery, when through the center I slay
Won't you stand in straight as an evergreen, when it all gives way
Brace yourself, this whole world will spin about
Since I'm the raft side of this pleasure
Those who have the sense to fear of me are the dark prince
And you are the peasant
Wait for me on the rainbow crossing
'Cause I need you there for me to meet the maker
Finally, I will see your person, but my greatest fear are your shining features
So much time and crime that I've grown to love
Your fiery nation everywhere
On the rainbow crossing you can check your spears, your bows and arrows
Meet me there above the river flowing and we'll enter in with greatest zeros
Though they say Valhalla ain't what it use to be
Still I recollect it can't be all that bad
No, it can't be any worse than a world without a friend
