Newsgroups: alt.music.lyrics @ARTIST: Garbage @ALBUM: Garbage @SONG: Supervixen Come down to my house Stick a stone in your mouth You can always pull out If you like it too much Make a whole new religion A falling star that you cannot live without and I'll feed your obsession There'll be nothing but this thing that you'll never doubt A hit is hard to resist And I never miss I can take you out With just a flick of my wrist Make a whole new religion A falling star that you cannot live without and I'll feed your obsessions There is nothing but this thing that you'll never doubt this thing that you'll never doubt And I'll feed your obsession The falling star that you cannot live without I will be your religion This thing you'll never doubt You're not the only one You're not the only one Now I want it too much Now I want it to stop Now I'm lucky like a falling star fell over me Bow down to me. @SONG: Queer Hey boy, take a look at me Let me dirty up your mind I'll strip away your hard veneer And see what I can find The queerest of the queer The strangest of the strange The coldest of the cool The lamest of the lame The numbest of the dumb I hate to see you here You choke behind a smile A fake behind the fear The queerest of the queer This is what he pays me for I'll show you how it's done You learn to love the pain you feel Like father, like son The queerest of the queer Hide inside your head The blindest of the blind The deadest of the dead You're hungry 'cause you starve While holding back the tears Choking on your smile A fake behind the fear The queerest of the queer I know what's good for you, you can touch me if you want, I know you're dying to, You can touch me if you want, I know what's good for you, You can touch me if you want But you can't stop The queerest of the queer The strangest of the strange The coldest of the cool The lamest of the lame The numbest of the dumb I hate to see you here You choke behind a smile A fake behind the fear The queerest of the queer The strangest of the strange The coldest of the cool You're nothing special here A fake behind the fear The queerest of the queer I know what's good for you I know you're dying to I know what's good for you I bet you're dying to You can touch me if you want You can touch me if you want You can touch me You can touch me But you can't stop. @SONG: Only Happy When It Rains I'm only happy when it rains I'm only happy when it's complicated And though I know you can't appreciate it I'm only happy when it rains You know I love it when the news is bad And why it feels so good to feel so sad I'm only happy when it rains Pour your misery down, pour your misery down on me Pour your misery down, pour your misery down on me I'm only happy when it rains I feel good when things are going wrong I only listen to the sad sad songs I'm only happy when it rains I only smile in the dark My only comfort is the night gone black I didn't accidentally tell you that I'm only happy when it rains You'll get the message by the time I'm through When I complain about me and you I'm only happy when it rains Pour your misery down, pour your misery down on me Pour your misery down, pour your misery down on me Pour your misery down, pour your misery down on me Pour your misery down You can keep me company as long as you don't care I'm only happy when it rains You wanna hear about my new obsession I'm riding high upon a deep depression I'm only happy when it rains Pour some misery down on me. @SONG: As Heaven Is Wide Nothing that you say will release you Nothing that you pray would forgive you Nothing's what your words mean to me Something that you did will destroy me Something that you said will stay with me Long after you are dead and gone If flesh could crawl My skin would fall From off my bones and run away from here As far from god As heaven is wide As far from god As angels can fly If holy is as holy does This house will burn straight down to hell Take its conscience with it as it falls Nothing said could change the fact My tryst was blind, you broke the pact If god's my witness god must be blind If flesh could crawl My skin would fall From off my bones and run away from here As far from god As heaven is wide As far from god As angels can fly I wish Take it back, I dare you, take it back No you can't? You should have thought of that What's inside a man that goes so wrong Choke on guilt that's far too good for you Say one word I'll laugh and bury you And leave you in the place where you left me If flesh could crawl My skin would fall From off my bones and run away from here As far from god As heaven is wide As far from god As angels can fly I wish I could fly. @SONG: Not My Idea I bit my tongue and stood in line With not much to believe in I bought into what I was sold And ended up with nothing This is not my idea of, of a good time This is not my idea of, of a good time This is not my idea of, of a good time This is not my idea You thought I was a little girl You thought I was a little mouse You thought you'd take me by surprise Now I'm here burning down your house This is not my idea of, of a good time This is not my idea of, of a good time This is not my idea of, of a good time This is not my idea. @SONG: A Stroke Of Luck Hanging by threads of palest silver I could have stayed that way forever Bad blood and ghosts wrapped tight around me Nothing could ever seem to touch me I lose what I love most Did you know I was lost until you found me? A stroke of luck or a gift from god? The hate of fate or devil's claws? From below or saints above You came to me Here comes the cold again I feel it closing in It's falling down and All around me falling You say that you'll be there to catch me Or will you only try to trap me These are the rules I make Our chains were meant to break You'll never change me Here comes the cold again I feel it closing in You're falling down and All around me falling Stroke of luck or a gift from god? Hand of fate or devil's claws? From below or saints above You come to me now Don't ask me why Don't even try A stroke of luck or a gift from god? The hand of fate or devil's claws? From below or saints above You came to me Here comes the cold again I feel it closing in It's falling down and All around me falling Falling. @SONG: Vow I can't use what I can't abuse And I can't stop when it comes to you You burned me out but I'm back at your door Like Joan of Arc coming back for more I nearly died I nearly died I nearly died I came to cut you up I came to knock you down I came around to tear your little world apart I came to shut you up I came ot drag you down I came around to tear your little world apart And break your soul apart You burn and burn to get under my skin You've gone too far, now I won't give in You crucified me but I'm back in your bed Like Jesus Christ coming back from the dead I nearly died I nearly died I nearly died I came to knock you up I came to cut you down I came around to tear your little world apart I came to rip you up I came to shut you down I came around to tear your little world apart And break your soul apart I nearly died I nearly died I nearly died I came to cut you up I came to knock you down I came around to tear your little world apart I came to shut you down I came around to tear your little world apart Tear your little world apart Tear your little world apart And break your soul apart I can't stop when it comes to you I can't stop when it comes to you When it comes to you When it comes to you. @SONG: Stupid Girl You pretend you're high Pretend you're bored Pretend you're anything Just to be adored And what you need Is what you get Don't believe in fear Don't believe in faith Don't believe in anything That you can't break You stupid girl You stupid girl All you had you wasted All you had you wasted What drives you on Can drive you mad A million lies to sell yourself Is all you ever had Don't believe in love Don't believe in hate Don't belive in anything That you can't waste You stupid girl You stupid girl Can't believe you fake it Can't believe you fake it Don't believe in fear Don't believe in pain Don't believe in anyone That you can't tame You stupid girl You stupid girl All you had you wasted All you had you wasted You stupid girl You stupid girl Can't believe you fake it Can't believe you fake it You stupid girl. @SONG: Dog New Tricks I wish I had not woke up today Everyone mistakes the things you say Take the simple truth and Twist it all around Make it seem important Make it seem profound Dog new tricks Nothing you learn will stick Dog new tricks You make me feel so worthless Everyone I know has gone away Died or left or just forgot to stay Sometimes took for granted Sometimes turned away Sometimes didn't say what I meant to say Dog new tricks Nothing you learn will stick Dog new tricks You make me feel so worthless Nothing you learn I never would have pegged you For what you have become Everyone lies Everyone cheats Not like you've done Dog new tricks Nothing you learn will stick Dog new tricks You make me feel so worthless Nothing you learn. @SONG: My Lover's Box My lover's charms Are in a box Beneath my bed And piece by piece I'll cherish them Until the end Send me an angel to love I need to feel a little piece of heaven Send me an angel to love I'm afraid I'll never get to heaven They burn my hand Scar my face And blind my eyes I'll steal your breath And throw away What I despise Send me an angel to love I need to feel a little piece of heaven Send me an angel to love I'm afraid I'll never get to heaven Between these walls And darkness halls I've done my time If I should die Before I wake Then you'll know why Send me an angel to love I need to feel a little piece of heaven Send me an angel to love I'm afraid I'll never get to heaven Piece by piece Send me an angel. @SONG: Fix Me Now Things don't have to be this way Catch me on a better day Bury me above the clouds All the way from here Take away the things I need Take away my fear Hide me in a hollow sound Happy evermore Everything I had to give Gave out long before Fix me now I wish you would Bring me back to life Kiss me blind somebody should From hollow into light Crashing silent broken down Falling into night Who gave up and who gave in I'll go without a fight Cut me down or cut me dead Cut me in our out Kiss me blind time after time Take away my doubt Fix me now I wish you would Bring me back to life Kiss me blind somebody should From hollow into light Things don't have to be this way Catch me on a better day Nowhere only down from here Pick me off the floor Take away the things I dream One time one place one more Fix me now I wish you would Bring me back to life Kiss me blind somebody should From hollow into light Things don't have to be this way Catch me on a better day. @SONG: Milk I am milk I am red hot kitchen And I am cool Cool as the deep blue ocean I am lost So I am cruel But I'd be love and sweetness If I had you I'm waiting I'm waiting For you I am weak But I am strong I can use my tears to Bring you home I'm waiting I'm waiting For you I am milk I am red hot kitchen And I am cool Cool as the deep blue ocean I'm waiting I'm waiting For you I'm aching for you I'm waiting for you.
