"Leather"



Look I'm standing naked before you
Don't you want more than my sex
I can scream as loud as your last one
But I can't claim innocence

Oh god could it be the weather
Oh god why am I here
If love isn't forever
And its NOT THE WEATHER
Hand me my leather

I could just pretend that you love me
The night would lose all sense of fear
But why do I need you to love me
When you can't hold what I hold dear

Oh god could it be the weather
Oh god why am I here
If love isn't forever
And its NOT THE WEATHER
Hand me my leather

I almost ran over an angel
He had a nice big fat cigar
"IN A SENSE" he said "you're alone here 
So if you jump you best jump far"

Oh god could it be the weather
Oh god why am I here
If love isn't forever
And its NOT THE WEATHER
Oh god could it be the weather
Oh god its all very clear
If love isn't forever
And its NOT THE WEATHER
Hand me my leather


"Muhammad my Friend"

 
Muhammad my friend 
It's time to tell the world 
We both know it was a girl back in Bethlehem 
And on that fateful day 
When she was crucified 
She wore a Shiseido Red and we drank tea 
By her side 
Sweet sweet 
Used to be so sweet to me 

Muhammad my friend 
I'm getting very scared 
Teach me how to love my brothers 
Who don't know the law 
And what baout the deal on the flying 
Trapeze got a peanut butter hand 
But honey do drop in at the 
Dew Drop Inn 

Sweet sweet 
Between the boys and the bees 

And Moses I know 
I know you've seen fire 
But you've never seen fire 
Until you've seen Pele blow 
And I've never seen light 
But I sure have seen gold 
And Gladys save a place for me 
On your grapevine 
Till I get my own TV show 

Ashre ashre ashre ashre 
And if I lose my Cracker Jacks at the 
Tidal wave I got a place 
In the Pope's rubber robe 
Muhammad my friend 
It's time to tell the world 
We both know it was a girl 
Back in Bethlehem
 
 

"Beauty Queen"
 
She's a Beauty Queen 
My sweet bean bag in the street 
Take it 
Down out to the laundry scene 
Don't know why she's in my hand 
Can't figure what it is 
But I lie again 


"Caught a Lite Sneeze"

Caught a lite sneeze caught a lite breeze 
Caught a lightweight lightningseed 
Boys on my left side 
Boys on my right side 
Boys in the middle 
And you're not here I needa big loan 
From the girl zone 
Building 
Tumbling down 
Didn't know our love was so small 
Couldn't stand at all 
Mr St. John just bring your son 

The spire is hot 
And my cells can't feed 
And you still got that Belle dragging your foots 
I'm hiding it well Sister Ernestine 
But I still got that Belle 
Dragging my foots 

Right on time you get closer 
And closer 
Called my name but there's no way in 
Use that fame 
Rent your wife and kids today 
Maybe she will 
Maybe she will caught a lite sneeze 
Dreamed a little dream 
Made my own pretty hate machine 
Boys on my left side 
Boys on my right side 
Boys in the middle and you're not here 
Boys in their dresses 
And you're not here 
I need a big loan from the girl zone

 
"Talula"
(*the origional intro: 
Congratulate you 
Said you had a double tongue 
Balancing cake and bread 
Say goodbye to a glitter girl*) 
(*the Tornado mix intro: 
He's chasing tornadoes 
I'm just waiting calmly 
Chasing her*) 

Talula 
Talula 
You don't want to lose her 
She must be worth losing 
If it is worth something 
Talula 
Talula 
She's brand new now to you 
Wrapped in your papoose 
Your little Fig Newton 

Say goodbye to the old world 

Ran into the Henchman who severed 
Anne Boleyn 
He did it right quickly a merciful man 
She said 1 + 1 is 2 
But Henry said that it was 3 
So it was 
Here I am 

Talula 
Talula 
I don't want to lose it 
It must be worth losing 
If it is worth something 
Talula 
Talula 
She's brand new now to you 
Wrapped in your papoose 
Your little Fig Newton 

And Jamaica 
Do you know what I have done 
Mary M weaving on said 
What you want is in the blood Senators 
I got Big Bird on the fishing line 
With a bit of a shout a bit of a shout 
A bit of an angry snout 
He's my favourite hooker of the whole bunch 
And I know about his only Bride 
And how the Russians die on the ice 
I got my rape hat on 
Honey but I always could accessorise 
And I never cared too much for the money 
But I know right now 
That it's in God's hands 
But I don't know who the Father is 

Talula 
Talula 
I don't want to lose him 
He must be worth losing 
If it is worth something 
Talula 
Talula 
He's brand new now to you 
Wrapped in your papoose 
Your little Fig Newton
