The Raveonettes - KILLER

She's standing by my side
With the rain in her hair
She walks away with me
You know people stare
And I know it's not too late
To try

Kill for love but make it so I don't care
Most of the time I felt so alone
Kill for love but make it so I don't care
Most of the time I felt so alone

The Raveonettes - Killer In The Streets

You're raising hell on shore
With the widows of love
A new sound from the beaches
Be quiet hear them roar
I got no secrets I got no friends
But I got a hold of you
They say you're trouble I say you're fine
I always crossed that line
Your rose-colored socks
Your sun-bleached hair
You piss me off at times
I don't really care

You drop bombs on my head
You cut me with cheap knives
Make sure I never forget
There's a riot tonight
How a raging love
Can end and no one wins
I hate your delicate smile
Like a thief in the night
With the coming of spring
I jump-start my trip
A trip to behold
A trip I should skip

You'll go first and I'll grieve
It's too much to conceive
In dreams I picture this
The USS Intrepid in the rain
You and I holding hands
While evil runs through your veins
At night they come to make you feel small
Or maybe they don't come at all
I've seen you cry I've seen it all
I've seen your downfall
Was it true or did you make it all up
I'm through I have to stop
Then out of the blue
Like a B-52
You drop a bomb cuckoo
And it's over thank you

The Raveonettes - Remember

And I never think you'll get it
Tonight you're doing something
This fix is more important than you are

Hooking in the streets
Don't you have somewhere to go
This man is more important than you are

Girl, can this summer turn you on
When you walk inside yourself
And feel the moon has let you down?

Remember when the heat could
Knock you off your feet
I remember when the streets would
Still be good to me

Girl, where were you on that perfect day
When hearts were handed out
And young girls
Found pretty lover boys?

Come on, make it right
Come on, make it right
Come on, make it right
Come on, make it right

Come on, make it right
Girl, where were you on that perfect day
Come on, make it right
When hearts were handed out
Come on, make it right
Found pretty love
Come on, make it right
Found pretty lover boys?

Come on, make it right
Girl, where were you on that perfect day
Come on, make it right
When hearts were handed out
Come on, make it right
Found pretty love
Come on, make it right
Found pretty lover boys?

The Raveonettes - She Owns The Streets

I wanna know her
I wanna ask her
I wanna know where she did go wrong

Is it Valium? Is it all drugs?
Or is it just every day fun?

She's dancing in the street
Yeah, she's dancing in the street
Dancing in the street
Yeah she's dancing, dancing, dancing in the street

See your cool now
It's a gas now
Watch her dance among the Bowery caps
People feel her
They're so boring
They call the cabs and they want who is fun

She's dancing in the street
Yeah, she's dancing in the street
Dancing in the street
Yeah she's dancing, dancing, dancing in the street
Dancing, dancing, dancing in the street

I can't wait to get to know you
I wanna be the one that gives you the ride
If they catch you and connect you
They'll never know what this life is about

She's dancing in the street
Yeah, she's dancing in the street
Dancing in the street
Yeah she's dancing, dancing, dancing in the street
Dancing, dancing, dancing in the street

She owns, she owns, she owns the streets
She owns, she owns, she owns the streets
She owns, she owns, she owns the streets
She owns, she owns, she owns the streets
She owns, she owns, she owns the streets
She owns, she owns, she owns the streets

The Raveonettes - I Love How You Love Me

I love how your eyes close whenever you kiss me
And when I'm away from you I love how you miss me
I love the way you always treat me tenderly
But, darling, most of all I love how you love me

I love how your heart beats whenever I hold you
I love how you think of me without being told to
I love the way your touch is always heavenly
But, darling, most of all I love how you love me

I love how your eyes close whenever you kiss me
And when I'm away from you I love how you miss me
I love the way you always treat me tenderly
But, darling, most of all I love how you love me

(originally recorded by The Paris Sisters)

The Raveonettes - Venus In Furs

Shiny, shiny, shiny boots of leather
Whiplash girlchild in the dark
Comes in bells, your servant, don't forsake him
Strike, dear mistress, and cure his heart

Downy sins of streetlight fancies
Chase the costumes she shall wear
Ermine furs adorn the imperious
Severin, Severin awaits you there

I am tired, I am weary
I could sleep for a thousand years
A thousand dreams that would awake me
Different colors made of tears

Kiss the boot of shiny, shiny leather
Shiny leather in the dark
Tongue of thongs, the belt that does await you
Strike, dear mistress, and cure his heart

Severin, Severin, speak so slightly
Severin, down on your bended knee
Taste the whip, in love not given lightly
Taste the whip, now bleed for me

I am tired, I am weary
I could sleep for a thousand years
A thousand dreams that would awake me
Different colors made of tears

(originally recorded by The Velvet Underground)

The Raveonettes - Till The End

Calm down, please stay
Walk upon the ocean till the end
Slow down, don't move
For a moment I belong to you

It's never quite the same
And the one I love never came
And all the songs I've made
Dripping all in my love

Calm down, be still
When you walk upon the ocean till the end
Slow down, don't move
For a moment I belong to you

I'm on the verge of sleep
In the dark, so bored
So I shake until
Let it all begin again

Calm down, be still
When you walk upon the ocean till the end
Slow down, don't move
For a moment I belong to you

Calm down, be still
When you walk upon the ocean till the end
Slow down, don't move
For a moment I belong to you

The Raveonettes - Little Animal

My girl is a little animal
She always wants to fuck
I can't find a reason why
I guess it's just my luck

So at night when she's sound asleep
I head out in the rain to meet

All the things she never gave
To me when I was down
All the things I had to find
With strangers in strange towns

But at night when she's curled up next to me
I head out for the devil to meet

The Raveonettes - My Time's Up

My time's up

And I don't care how I feel

I just don't care

I just don't care

And everything dull has

Come at light to see you

And everything dull has

Come at light to see you

Come at light to see you

Pray that you don't

Leave me all alone

The flashing lights

Here to take my love

Here to take my love

No gleaming lights in the sky now

Do you wish those moments could be yours?

You look so dead did you ever

Rejoice of a young girl in my youth?

No gleaming lights in sky

Do you wonder what your life could have been?

No gleaming stars in the sky now

Rejoice of a young girl in my youth

Come with me dear

How I dare you

The oceans will fall

And kill us all

The Raveonettes - Dirty Eyes (Sex Don't Sell)

Jimmy says that sex don't sell
Jimmy says that sex don't sell
I think he's just oh well

Yeah, yeah
Yeah, yeah
Yeah, yeah
Hoo, hoo, hoo

You know you feel it every time
You stare at her and she looks so fine
You stare at him but he's all mine

Yeah, yeah
Yeah, yeah
Yeah, yeah
Hoo

Yeah, gonna make it go away
Gonna make it go away
Gonna make it go away
Hoo

Dirty eyes will make you dream
Sado sue will make you scream
Transi troy will make you mean

Hoo, hoo

The Raveonettes - The Christmas Song

All the lights are coming on now
How I wish that it would snow now
I don't feel like going home now
I wish that I could stay

All the trees are on display now
And it's cold now
I don't feel like going home now
I wish that I could stay

I wish that I could walk
I wish that I could walk you home

All the lights are coming on now
How I wish that it would snow now
I don't feel like going home now
I wish that I could stay

Santa's coming to town
With his suitcase in his hands
Santa's coming to town
With his suitcase in his hands

The Raveonettes - Recharge & Revolt

With a hole in my head I looked for you
Through the trenches of war the whole world through
My desire to leave with you I just can't constrain

I regret everything I've done so far
When the pillars of love are blown apart
I stumble through the rubble and decay

When I'm terrified I close my eyes
When I'm sad and blue I choose to fight
Heartbreak only can take you to the other side

My impression of you is hard to comprehend
When 2 people have no time to spend
You're the dreamiest girl who ever entered my mind

The bliss I feel knowing you're delirious
Makes me feel oh so imperious
When the longing comes I'll fight it till the end

When all broken dreams are glued back together
And there's nothing to talk about not even the weather
And all rivals are all laid to rest

The Raveonettes - You Hit Me (I'm Down)

Do you sleep all alone
Do you sleep to forget
Long past overdue
That love once knew

Yeah, it was from the streets, you came to the door
It hurt for long like never before
Poisoned your heart, burned down your cheeks
Forever more love don't speak

You hit me, I'm down
You hit me, I'm down

Yeah, you ran right back when you ran away
You act by night, you try by day
Poisoned your heart, burned down your cheeks
Forever more love don't speak

You hit me, I'm down!
You hit me, I'm down!
You hit me, I'm down!
You hit me, I'm down!

You hit me, I'm down!
You hit me, I'm down!
You hit me, I'm down!
You hit me, I'm down!
You hit me, I'm down!
You hit me, I'm down!
You hit me, I'm down!
You hit me, I'm down!

The Raveonettes - Young And Cold

I saw it you and me in time apart
I get a shiver from broken hearts
I like the sun when it don't shine
I make it hard on anyone
So many restless souls
I don't wanna be young and cold
I don't wanna be young and cold

In the roll, in the spring time dust
I love you way too much
So I wonder where to go
When love moves way too slow
So when hearts stay will explode
I don't wanna be young and cold
I don't wanna be young and cold

All talk is a waste of time
'cause in dreams you're always mine
Why they burn with such delight
A leave of joy awake and rhyme
So many times I've lost control
I don't wanna be young and cold
I don't wanna be young and cold

I saw it you and me in time apart
I get a shiver from broken hearts
I like the sun where it don't shine
I make it hard on anyone
So many restless souls
I don't wanna be young and cold
I don't wanna be young and cold

So many restless souls
I don't wanna be young and cold
I don't wanna be young and cold

The Raveonettes - Observations

To live like other people
I never think I’ll do
And so my love i give into this dark

Flowers in the day time
And Lucifer at night
This woman said I’m torn between two lives

Visions of young lovers
Holding hands in joyful lights
Wishing they will never be apart

And so again I hold on
To someone I can't have
Obsessed with all the things that we could do

Take me on a night drive
And take me home again
A quiet trip where we will meet the end
To live like other people
I never think I’ll do
In defiance of a love not....
In defiance of a love not realized

The Raveonettes - Evil Seeds

When you're here
I long for all those things
my eyes would steal like a thief and hide from you

When it rains
on this town and in this heart
I betray the ones I've come to love the most

When I'm down
and most of all I've had
has come to get revenge on all I've done

But I'm sad
and our love is far behind
I long for all that time I spent with you

When I'm gone
Like a raven in the grave
Young lovers sure won't spring from these evil seeds

Play with fire
Play with you sometimes

The Raveonettes - Chain Gang Of Love

Walk away nothing to do
I forgot what doing time can do
I'm on the chain gang
The chain gang of love
Wasting my time
I'm just a prisoner of love

I'm a jailbird baby
Wasting my time
At first feeling blue
Then feeling fine
I'm serving time
For something i can't do
They call it a crime
Cause i'm not in love with you

I'm a jailbird baby
Cause I'm not in love with you

The Raveonettes - War In Heaven

Wait, a war in heaven

Wait, a war in heaven
I hate it when they forget
To let people live

Wait, a war in heaven
I hate it when they forget
To let people live

Slowly we come
There's blood on the chair
In this tender life

The Raveonettes - That Great Love Sound

Changing your strut when you know I'm behind you
Changing your ways cause you don't know what to do
I only wanna tell you
How I feel inside
If only you could listen
Try to change your mind

So I walk right up to you
And you walk all over me
And I ask you what you want
And you tell me what you need
Can't you feel it all come down
Can't you hear it all around
At the place where lost is found
That great love sound

Talking to you makes me wanna shake and shout
Touching you makes me wanna come right out
You could never want me
The same way I want you
I'm love tornado struck
I don't know what to do
