This is kissing the trash
This is fingering the ash
This is eating out the mud

Standing from atop of the stage
I see the starving hands
I finally turned on the lights
And turned into a man

You see, some feel they have to kill
For all great lies
And some, they have to steal
If they want to survive

Hey, some day, don't go
And sign your life away
Hey, some may say, oh no
You signed your life away

Here, three million dead
In the foreign land
Me, killing you
In a serious trance

Take off and find some shelter
From natural change
When our institutions crumble
And leave us strange

Hey some day, don't go
And sign your life away
Hey some may say, oh no
You signed your life away

Hey some day, don't go
And sign your life away
Hey some may say, oh no
You signed your life away

This is kissing the trash
This is fingering the ash
This is eating out the mud
This is la-la-la-love

This is kissing the trash
This is fingering the ash
This is eating out the mud
This is la-la-la-love

This is kissing the trash
This is fingering the ash
This is eating out the mud
This is la-la-la-love

This is kissing the trash
This is fingering the ash
This is eating out the mud
This is la-la-la-love

This is kissing the trash
This is fingering the ash
This is eating out the mud
This is la-la-la-love

This is kissing the trash
This is fingering the ash
This is eating out the mud
This is la-la-la-love

The Seacrouton is on it! Well I ordered the damn thing and might be able to contribute better to this thread by the end of the week.

Does the hook sound like one of the really early old demos to you? I can't place which off that 30 second sample.

Nah, doesn't really trigger any of the old songs to me, I don't think. Did you figure out which one you were thinking of?

Nope, I think the online sample was just of really bad quality and it reminded me of struggling through some of those old live bootlegs for some reason.

Anyway, I hear:
don't cry (instead of "don't go)

Some fear they have to kill (instead of "some say"

Some may say, oh, why (the ?? section)

and leave us strange (after institutions crumble line)

Good stuff, eh? This was a quick one.

Yea... all these great b-sides beg one question: why the heck is the album so short?

you beat me too it!

here's what i heard:

i think i'm gonna take up the cowbell!

I can't help but sing it "This is finger in the ass!"

Where in the heck did you get this song? I'm falling behind in my Ima Robot tunes!!

Poobs, it's all about the International B-sides. They are all basically Oligee's tunes, as far as the synth is WAY out front in all of them.

Wait 'til you hear "I'm A Bitch For You."
Sine Your Life is a B-side on the French Dynomite single...Bitch is on the Japanese album.

You both just like it Greek!

Yea, I'm sure that was the play on words Alex was going for. I wonder if they'll start playing this one live someday.

Word is that if it wasn't for Alex being unable to rehearse due to extreme illness, they would have played Sine Your Life Away as well as I'm Your Bitch, Stranglers Theme and The Beat Goes On at the recent shows. It's disappointing, but I'm just grateful that the shows weren't cancelled.

Same here Batcave Baby, grateful for the shows not being cancelled, of course those songs would have been a real treat

I wonder if those songs will be debuted overseas?

Given the time that they have off between the end of the U.S. dates and the start of the European dates I would bet they get played there.

Anyone up for a road-trip to Amsterdam? :saint:

I'm in

You buy, I'll fly..:D

I dled this song a few days ago(Dynomite single will be here in a few days so its not really stealing) and it is soooooo fucking good. How the hell does he hit those notes?

I know! The first time I heard it (in the parking lot after the Henry Fonda show thanks to Phob), I totally dug it..It makes me so happy everytime I hear it!! :D
