I'm in a closet and i can't breath
Won't you please release me
I can't move and my kidneys fail
The size of this room feels like jail
I can't talk i can't enunciate
And i'm threatened like sharon tate

Suburban wealth and middle class well being
All it did was strip my feelings
Personality down the drain
Take a bullet to my eyes
Blow them out and see if i die

[Billy Ruben]

Hit me big head
Dance with me big face
Blonde red head
I've got a snake in my mind
And it's not my spine

One of the coolest tracks from the Lust For Life album,about rejecting reality and its sickness,and using drugs to push it to the limits.To Quote"and the sight of it all,makes me sad and ill,that's when I want,some weird sin".The best era for Iggy was the years,1975-1979,loved the guy,next to Lou Reed.

Well,it's a dark and evil night for me.Shunned at the other end of the house,the family enagaed in Playstation3,I'm blasting Huggy Bear down the neighbourhood,playing my most evil sounding riffs,Stepping On Bugs,Her Jazz,Blow Dry,Pansy Twist,Dissenthentic Penetration,Highstreet Jupiter Snowcone,a moonless night,I'm setting up evil vibes for the whole street,witchcrafting them to my sounds of soul,drowning out faded Country and Western,while I await and hunt,my hairless victim.

Had a cone of this crappy synthetic pot and it destroyed my spell.My evil intent was forgotten amongst a vacantr stare,as the mind focuses physical,out of reception,tuned etheric,lock....Astral,bad feelings before,making for a brown aura,clean up act,turn around on the spot,change the tunes,this Sad Cunt From Preston,remembering how the English talk...and laughed my troubles away.





I'm a simple city boy
With simple country tastes
Smoking woild-grown mari-jo-wana keeps that smile on my face
Depending on my mood, mood....
Listening to my system, just the other night
Watching my TV with the sound turned down
Checking out the late, late, late night Fight night



I call it my song for Taree...

[Billy Ruben]

The Small Heads EP version by Lisa Germano was the best take,her voice really capturing the sleazy aspects of the personalities she sings about...






Oh, poor baby
'Cause he had some power
Some power over her

She can't begin to feel
Oh, poor baby
'Cause she has no feeling
No feeling under here

'Cause a roadie broke her heart
Oh, guess a roadie broke her heart
Guess a roadie
Guess a roadie broke her heart

Scummy guys, boring girls
After show passes
And she wore no covers
No covers over her

Chuck it up, feel this heart
Dream on baby
'Cause you can't trust nothing
Love no-one anymore

'Cause a roadie broke your heart
Guess a roadie broke your heart
Guess a roadie...
Guess a roadie broke your heart

Goodbye harry
I am falling
Tom, dick, harry
You remind me

Goodbye harry
I am falling
Tom, dick, harry
You remind me

She won't believe in love
Oh, poor baby
'Cause she has no wonder
No wonder anymore

Suffer-roadies broke her heart
Guess a roadie broke your heart
'Cause a roadie broke your heart
Lots of roadies

Guess a roadie broke your heart
A roadie broke your heart
Guess a roadie broke your heart
Guess a roadie
Guess a roadie broke your heart
A roadie broke your heart

[Billy Ruben]

I won't settle down, I can't settle down
I won't cut it out, I won't quit
I'm not trying hard, I'm not getting well
I'm not improving, I won't do anything
This is a happy song
'Cause I want cancer of everything, yeah right
And if I fall down in a face of scars, I get attention
Cancer of everything
I won't grow up, I can't grow up
I must feel sick, I sure you do
I'm not trying hard, I'm not sleeping well
I'm not growing, I won't do anything
This isn't good for me
But you just wait and see how much attention I get
Oh, I got Cancer of everything
It sure works for me
So this is a happy song
And nobody seems to care
And my shit is everywhere
Too much of this too much of that
Surround yourself with yourself
Get some attention
And if fall down in a face of scars, well I don't know
You could leave me alone
I got Cancer of everything
Yeah, I don't fell so good

[Billy Ruben]

Speak, speak my little heart
Is that such bad a sin?
Where oh where do you go?
Was I that bad again?
But if I was a puppet
We'd get along just fine
Puppet

Put here or put me there
Do I feel better now?
Used have a fit or two
But now I hardly smile
'Cause when I am a puppet
We get along just fine
And maybe for a while
We could play together
And when I am a puppet
I have no voice

And maybe in your hands
I could just right
I'm in your hands now
I'm up to you
No thoughts or visions
The perfect girl
My sins are freezing
My heart is breaking
In your hands
The perfect girl
Puppet

You don't know what I;m thinking
'Cause I'm not thinking anything
I used t have a thought or two
But now I only smile
Now I only smile

'Cause when I am your puppet
We get along just fine
And maybe for a while
We could play together
And when I am a puppet
And when I have no voice
I'm in your hands now
I am your puppet
And we get along just fine
Maybe for a while
I could act just right
Act just right
Puppet

Favourite Riot Grrrl band,Heavens To Betsys,two songs featured in this video,the touching and intimate My Red Self,delving into issues surrounding womens menstrual cycles and unsympathetic men,and My Secret a near war-like anthem about being molested as minors and seeking revenge and exposure.These two,plus Stay Dead are the most loved of this genre of music.Credit to you Corine Tucker,brilliant.
