The Fashion Police

The Fashion Police placed under arrest everyone I know
Put a price on your head,they're coming to town just to get you
Don't let them fool you with a nickname and a tattoo
They just keep digging for more oil and less ideas
They lie about their past, make up pretty stories to be noticed
The taste in their mouth is the flavor of their last spring break
They keep pretending to be someone they will never be
Keep giving pleasure to that uninspired society
The Fashion Police placed under arrest everyone I know
All singing, all dancing, dress them up like hipsters from head to toe
Teach them how to deliver the goods to the industry
Always pretending to be someone they will never be
More oil, less ideas
More oil, less ideas
More oil, less ideas
More oil, less ideas
More oil, less ideas
More oil, less ideas
More oil, less ideas
More oil, less ideas
More oil, less ideas
More oil, less ideas
More oil, less ideas

The end is now

Oh we've been told we're getting sold
There's nothing new in what we do
And they tell us the end is near
But we keep holding hands
Captain China will bomb us, right?
We're all get sick, it's 666
But we keep holding hands

t's been a while since you've been gone,
three years, well four, it's been too long
You took the plane and it didn't crash
but your heart got stolen during the flight
(Where did you go?)
It's been a while since you've been gone,
three years or more, it's been too long
I called the cops, told the airline,
looks like you are nowhere to be found
You have been missing, missy
You have been missing, missy
Will you be there? Will I find you?
I'm at home, Where are you?

You don't know what to do with yourself
You call me up when I'm with someone else
You never know if it will last
Lesson learned from your past
Neither of us says anything
'cause that's how it works best
You're tired of living with yourself
Well, pick a book on human kindness
Your name is Joy and you're a source of pain
No one can tell what is wrong with your brain
Your love ends on the second floor
Looks like I knocked on the wrong door
I call you up when I'm all by myself
When I should be doing something else.

Mission to Babylonia
03:08
|
|

Oh here we go
Come with me, get in the UFO
Get in on the secret
And off we'll go
Have a getaway from what we know
We won't be pioneers
We'll just disappear
And off we'll go
Where all the dead souls go
Now you're in on the secret
Here we go
さあ 行こう UFOに乗って
ふたりだけの ひみつ
このまま 消えて なくなろう *
It's what we call the underworld
Not your ordinary human world
God is fair and loving
It's in all of you
It's positive thinking
Oh here we go
Some say it's even hotter than Pluto
Now you're in on the secret
* Translation by Kumi Okamoto

Who else are you?
03:21

Here you are
driving your rental solar car
While I'm reading the daily stars
falling down
Whenever comes the night
you watch TV by candlelight
I'll see you in the out lands
of Paradise
Now let's try to read the book
your soul is writing about you
There will come a day
when all the satellites die away
It will be time to slam
the book of the past
And if you ask me,
I will ask you:
“who else are you?”
Who else are you?
Now let's try to find the book
your soul is writing about you

A. & E. in the G. of E.

The truth is that I think, I think we met too soon
We grew up too fast, guess it couldn't last
You started to grow, it started to show
The wrinkles on your face, your hair turning to snow
To be grown up and civilized,
I was not so well prepared
Had the feeling you were here for good,
Guess it's my mistake, I misunderstood
Make the most out of our DNA,
Why is it that we meet? It's not really ok
How you try to hide your feelings inside
Your wisdom with some make up
In the fullness of time,
everything changes
when you say it loud
The truth is that I think, I think we met too soon
We grew up too fast, guess it couldn't last
You started to grow, it started to show
The wrinkles on your face, your hair turning to snow
To be grown up and civilized,
I was not that well prepared

Platonic Love
02:30
|
|
||
Friendship comes, Friendship goes
to a different town and go to ground
Brand new stores! A brand new scene!
Brand new faces! Same old dreams.
Friendship comes, Friendship goes
Friendship travels, Friendship knows:
Pen pal, soul mate, blood sister, roommate, comrade, imaginary friend, boston marriage, spiritual friend, pen pals, soul mates, blood sisters or roommates, imaginary friends, comrades, spiritual friends, platonic love.

Side by Side
01:53
|
|
||
We don't really know what we're looking for,
we're afraid to fail, not afraid to fall
And as we keep you up,we'll bring you down
We live each day like it's our last
and slowly drift away from what we call our past
And every night, we go to sleep
in different arms for them to keep
ourselves away from memories,
from the ones we love and from the things we did
And side by side, we sleep around,
we drift away all over town.

A Pleasant Evening
02:36
|
|

It was built in the sexties,
it’s not far away from town
A fireplace for a pleasant evening,
come into my stomping ground
If privacy is your thing,
this is the perfect place
A fireplace for a pleasant evening,
I can’t wait to see your face
There’s an attic and a basement,
let me show you around the house
Come on, you need to see the garden,
there’s a pool to fool around
I told you the view was outstanding,
the moon is far above the hills
You were born in the 80’s,
I hope you’ll go for thrills and chills
How could I have known,
that your one and only plan was a safety zone
called
retirement.

The Cantina of Despair
02:03

"Earn your daily bread", they say
Drinks and treats will come your way
There's bread and butter in the air,
in the Cantina of Despair
Will work for food in my own time : as late as possible
So much to do, so little time before I get too old
Grow and bloom my little thoughts!
My heavenly brainchild!
There's bread and butter in the air,
in the Cantina of Despair
"Their food program is out of place
for souls over 21 grams
Slaving away too many years
is not the norm for a gourmet of life"
Grow and bloom my little thoughts!
Grow and bloom my heavenly brainchild!

The Future of The Future
03:35

There must be a place for us
If there's no magic in this world, we'll find it in the wilderness
Let's overcome our fears, I think it's a good start
As for now, I need to start from scratch
You are my favorite wonder
Just try to separate the two : the book from the writer
As stupid sounds, I need to make it clear
In the future of the future, you'll be my guest
You are my favorite wonder
I'm trying to separate the book from its binder
From one midnight to the next, I keep showing a different face
Just try not to judge the book by its cover
Now let's pretend, let's pretend we're something else
In the future of the future!
Let's pretend, let's pretend we're something else
In the future of the future!
You are my favorite wonder
You're not just a pretty face, you're the leader
Out of the people I have met, and the ones that I will meet
You'll keep a special place by all means

Home Sweet Home

n this world of news where nothing is new,
we created a club to make us feel at home
close the door, make some tea, drink coffee
Welcome to the bazaar, the idiosyncrasy of the radio waves coming from your body
home sweet home
It's called the singles club
close the door, drink coffee, do the math
home sweet home
Got no job, no money, but plenty of ideas falling down from the skies like funny little stamps
To catch them, we get high but they're having all the fun
Yes, while we're getting high, they're having all the fun

Looks like you eventually found someone
To start a family or what resembles one
The princess meets the prince, once and upon...
Love is the fire in which we burn!
We crush! We fry! We burn! We glow! We burn! We melt!
Since only god knows when...
I was a friend when you had none,
until you met your special one
Two rights can't make a wrong
I walked you through the future of yourself
When I first met you, you were someone else
You learned how to smile and how to quit your job
Nothing but a stepping stone
Love is the fire in which we burn!
We crush! We fry! We burn! We glow! We burn!
Love is the fire in which we burn!
We crush! We fry! We burn!
We glow! We burn! and We Melt!
Since only god knows when...
I was a friend when you had none,
until you met your very special one
I walked you through the future of yourself
oh oh

Sweet Sixteen

She'll make it to your Sweet 16
Walk in the room like a painting that speaks
Like a painting that speaks
She will make plans to cancel them
That's her way of saying :
"Nothing is always something"
She'll disconnect and disarm you
She'll be so real that reality shows
You wanna copyright those lips
and scan those eyes
You wanna be friends
But more than that
She'll make it to your Sweet 16
Walk in the room like a painting that speaks
Like a painting that speaks
