Shriekback - Malaria (From Oil And Gold) lyrics

rate me

In the dumb fat side<br />

of the heavy, sweaty black<br />

Malaria night<br />

You can tell the shit<br />

from the essence of heaven<br />

<br />

In the smash and grab<br />

in the sharp attack<br />

dishonest night<br />

You can say what you want<br />

and somebody listen<br />

<br />

There's laughter and glass<br />

and perfume and flags<br />

and kisses and trains<br />

and roses and vaccines<br />

<br />

Chorus<br />

I'm living in a neon house<br />

I'm living in avalanche road<br />

I'm living in hangover city<br />

<br />

Whatever gets you acclimatised<br />

Radiation and downcast eyes<br />

Serious sight<br />

We're looking for a wild machine<br />

Cybernetic rabies<br />

<br />

Syndication and sympathy<br />

might work for you but not for me<br />

I love you best when it's all a mess<br />

Will you lie for me cry for me<br />

die for me will you please<br />

<br />

Never never never never<br />

never never never say no<br />

<br />

Chorus<br />

I'm living in a neon house<br />

I'm living in avalanche road<br />

I'm living in hangover city<br />

<br />

All these unforseen things tumble down<br />

I've got a love and it won't stop burning<br />

<br />

In the dumb fat side<br />

of the heavy sweaty black<br />

Malaria night<br />

You can say what you want<br />

and somebody listen<br />

<br />

Gonna say what I really want<br />

Come on say what you really want<br />

Gonna say what I really want<br />

Yeah say what you really want<br />

<br />

I wanna live with Halo Jones<br />

I wanna home that's miles from home<br />

I wanna drugs from the Twilight Zone<br />

I Wanna never never never never<br />

never never never say no<br />

<br />

Chorus<br />

I'm living in a neon house<br />

I'm living in avalanche road<br />

I'm living in hangover city<br />

<br />

And all these unforseen things tumble down<br />

I've got a love and it won't stop burning
