Wife Beater

The signs were there from an early age
Fists and boots taking centre stage
Mother says it's the neighbourhood
Knowing soon her words are caked in blood
He's the one who seems to have it all
Cocaine parties, kids and summer balls
A perfect family and a perfect life
But Cambridge boy likes to beat his wife
Wife Beater
He steals the smile from her face
No happy endings in this place
The same excuses, "I tripped, I fell"
Knowing soon she'll return to hell
He's the one who seems to have it all
Cocaine parties, kids and summer balls
A perfect family and a perfect life
But Cambridge boy likes to beat his wife
"I can't take no more of this life", she said
He's the one who seems to have it all
Cocaine parties, kids and summer balls
A perfect family and a perfect life
But Cambridge boy likes to beat his wife
Wife Beater
A quiet funeral cos there's no friends
A tragic story with a bitter end
Left his mark in this neighbourhood
She slit her wrists in a bath of blood
He's the one who seems to have it all
Cocaine parties, kids and summer balls
A perfect family and a perfect life
But Cambridge boy likes to beat his wife

Man on the street
Don't you turn away
Man on the street
Looks like he's here to stay
Don't you turn your eyes
Don't you turn away
Man on the street
It's his time today
Man on the street
What fucking placed you there
Man on the street
Got no one to care
Don't you turn your eyes
Don't you turn away
Man on the street
It's his time to today
Just tell me how you'd feel
If that was you not him
You'd tell me your life stories
Your mother's love for Gin
Just how your father left you
A life that should have been
Just tell me how you'd feel
If that was you not him
Man on the street.

Smother Party

"Where we going?" Grandmother asks.
"It's a surprise, you'll never guess,
Here we are, now isn't it nice?
I know you're wary by the look in your eyes."
"Come inside, please take the weight,
Today's the day you discover your fate
Have a drink, it will help you to relax,
In 30 seconds you'll be flat on your back."
We're not callous, cruel or naive,
We just don't think you should continue to breathe
"Come on people, it's time to take your place -
Select your weapon and aim for the face!"
Smother Party
We're not violent or fuelled by hate
We've all got a best - STOP, she's still breathing...
Smother Party
We're not violent or fuelled by hate,
We've all got a best use-by date
Come on people, let's party like you do,
Trying not to think when this'll happen to you
Smother Party
Please Mr Postman, look and see,
Is there a pillow in the closet for me?
