Placebo - Try Better Next Time

At the core of the earth
It's too hot to breathe
There's nothing much to eat
And everybody leaves
There’s a place in the forest
Where the animals dance
Carefree and joyous
Like nobody's watching
And nobody's watching

So they laugh and they dance around mahogany trees
Completely unawares they’re gonna end up as meat
And nobody's watching

Wake up
Wake up
Try better next time
Wake up
Wake up
Cry better next time

Wake up
Wake up
Try better next time
Wake up
Wake up

So, you know me
Understand me
Is that what you think?
You haven't met the monster who wakes up when I drink
I was born out of time
I'm not meant to be here
With the weight of the world
And the weight of a tear
Are exactly the same

Wake up
Wake up
Try better next time
Wake up
Wake up
Cry better next time

Wake up
Wake up
Try better next time
Wake up
Wake up

Wake up
Wake up
Try better next time
Wake up
Wake up
Cry better next time

Wake up
Wake up Try better next time
Wake up
Wake up

There's a spot in the ocean
And that’s where we’ll meet
Somewhere far away
Where fish can nibble at our feet
And we can grow fins
Go back in the water
Grow fins go back in the water
Grow fins go back in the water
Grow fins go back in the water

Wake up
Wake up
Try better next time
Wake up
Wake up
Cry better next time

Wake up
Wake up
Try better next time
Wake up
Wake up

Wake up
Wake up
Try better next time
Wake up
Wake up
Cry better next time

Wake up
Wake up
Try better next time
Wake up
Wake up

It’s a gas, it’s a party
On this planet of flakes
Somebody take a picture
Before it's too late

Placebo - This Is What You Wanted

Hey, hey, hey
There's no need to panic
This is just how it is
Your pulse is fast and frantic
And it feels like you'll explode
This is what you wanted
This is here and now
This is what you came for
But you leave disappointed
Cracked skin and furrowed brow

Hey, hey, hey
This is what you wanted
This is why you came
This is what you asked for
Yes, I heard you beg
And you came
And you broke it, threw it
Out of the room
Flushed it, down the toilet
Even though it was your precious, the last thing to call your own

Hey, hey, hey
This is what you wanted
And you got it
Now you hate it
'Cause it's a disappointment
Your expectations were way too fucking high
Now you're angry
Frustrated
You've created your own special hell

Where it's arctic
And it's barren
And it's silent
And it's white
Your own prison cell

Hey, hey, hey
There's no need to panic

Placebo - Fix Yourself

No way
I won't deal
Go fuck yourselves
Don't tell me how to feel
Now I'm bored
Of your caucasian Jesus

Not seen
But isn't even there
And I dream
What you could never dare

My thoughts, are not who I am
I've killed, I've died
And I've tried the best I can
I run, from you
Harbingers of doom

'Cause I won't be pacified
By what you're scared to lose
And I won't efface myself
So I can be like you

Go fix yourself
Instead of someone else
Go fix yourself
Instead of someone else
Go fix yourself
Instead of someone else
Go fix yourself
Instead of someone else
Go fix yourself
Instead of someone else
Go fix yourself

Go fix yourself
Go fix yourself
Instead of someone else
Go fix yourself
Go fix yourself
Instead of someone else
Go fix yourself
Instead of someone else
Go fix yourself
Instead of someone else
Go fix yourself
Go fix yourself
Instead of someone else
Go fix yourself
Instead of someone else
Go fix yourself
Instead of someone else

Placebo - Chemtrails

I'm gonna find another island
And get the hell out of here
I need a change of environment
So I can disappear

'Cause I've been visible too long
I want another life
My self-esteem is coming on
But I need a little time

I'm gonna hire me a pilot
To drop me at your door
Then I'll consult a psychiatrist
To understand what for

'Cause I've been quizzical too long
I want another life
My friends and relatives are gone
And I need a little time

(Time)
No use crying when there's still a place to go
And time, time to make it so
(Time)
(Time)
No use crying when there's still a place to go
And time, time to make it so
(Time)

I'm gonna find another island
Get the fuck out of here
I'm sentimental and violent
So I should disappear

'Cause I've been risible too long
I want another life
And I know I'm not the only one
Who needs a little time

(Time)
No use crying when there's still a place to go
And time, time to make it so
(Time)
(Time)
No use crying when there's still a place to go
And time, time to make it so
(Time)
