1. Under your command
Under your command
Did I not do well
Was not my record fine

Under your command
Wouldn't I have walked straight through hell
And did I ever look down

Under your command
Didn't I walk naked and cold
Did I spare any pains

Under your command
Wasn't I courageous and bold
Did you ever hear me complain

Under your command
Did my hand ever shake
Didn't I stay cold as ice

Under your command
Did I leave any trace
Was I not great telling lies

Under your command
Was I not true to the cause
Did I not swallow my pride

Under your command
Did I not follow your laws
Did I ever mind

2. Dynamite
The film they show is
Sad and boring
The morning shot from a diving bell

Forgetting you is like
Breathing water
There's got to be a better way

Dynamite (x 2)

A thing you said once
Made me wonder
What can go away as fast as love

First the light
And then the thunder
I've been up all night and I got it now

Dynamite (x 2)

All day I
Did things slowly
Walked in circles round your home

I had something to add
To the things you showed me
I've got it here underneath my coat

Dynamite (x 2)

3. Almost a smile
Almost a smile
Like the sun here in November
Almost a smile

Almost a smile
Lakes that glitter behind trees
Blinking lamps in dusky streets
Almost a smile

Almost a smile
Like the bliss of northern summer
Hopefulness with the new-comer

Very casual and unstable
Like a guest will leave the table

Like a day when nothing happens
When you were sure the worst would happen
Almost a smile

Like a word that isn't worthless
That you haven't heard in lies yet
Almost a smile

Like the presence of a stranger
When you've lived in constant danger
Almost a smile

Passing cars, surprising comfort
Like a lover at the airport
Almost a smile

Almost a smile

4. Mary Bell
Let the evening in now
Let the darkness come
Shadows in your room unfold the night

Time to go to sleep now
For every man and child
Tonight you're still protected by the blackness

One was nearly seven
Her sister almost five
You'll tell us all tomorrow, Mary Bell

About how smoothly things went
And how they didn't fight
You're going back there, Mary Bell

And tell us how you found out
What no child should know
Tell us about the killing, Mary Bell

The night is dark above you
The universe is quite
Tonight you're still protected by the blackness

5. The man with the gun
I'm out of my senses
I'll only smile
The night I meet the man with the gun

Not that I'd be defenseless
But I don't think I'll fight
The night I meet the man with the gun

Maybe I'll say what kept you?
I know you would come
I somehow didn't expect to
Be spared for so long

Was it a whim of fortune
Or was I hard to find
What's the routine of a man with a gun

Was it a kind of torture
Have you been out of town
What is it like to a man with a gun

Maybe I'm glad to see you
It's hard to believe
But standing here beside you
Is such a relief

This is gonna hurt me
I do know why you've come
But I got this feeling
That it's already been done

6. Until
'Til I give you up
'Til you give in
Stop the car
Turn off the engine
Wake up at night with a pounding heart

'Til you go down
Loose your head
Stop unconscious
From your bed
Until you walk from bar to bar

Until

Until you're scourged
Until you're snared
Reminded by the clothes you wear
Galled and sticky with desire

'Til any touch
Is hard to bare
'Til nothing counts
'Til you don't care
Until your only thought is 'why'?

Until you bleed
Until you cry
Until you hurt as much as I

Until 'until' electrifies
Your ragged face
Your sleepless eyes

7. This time, John
This time John, you'll make it
You're back in real time
A second chance so take it
Your film is on rewind

One of us will hit you
The others hold you down
We'll mark you, mud and soil you
We'll throw you in to drown

We'll beat you up as badly
We'll throw you out as far
You're struggling just as madly
You're breathing just as hard

But you're still floating
And you're still floating (x 3)

8. CQD
Linked to the world by a pay phone
Stuck between galaxies
I finally fell in that black hole
Between your sentences

Circling over the airport
Beacon confirm our height
Is anything wrong, can we go down ?
But the radio remains quiet

CQD (x 2)

It's me and you now and you're not on my side
A night for planets, planes or souls to collide
They say that light years might go by till they do
It takes a desert to need someone like you

Cut me dead, send me out blindfolded
Watch me take up the glove
This is what I have been trained for
I think I am in love

9. Down Desire Avenue
Down Desire Avenue
Where all the pilots go
Line in a bar when day is through
Keeping the world in a place below

Tall second rated moviestars
Step from their overcolored truth
Out through a side door right into
Desire Avenue

Empty faces, silly walks
Coming in from the tight-rope dance
Men judging balance above all
Looking down on their shaking hands

It's coming up it's hard to breathe
And I think of you
I'm going down but nothing's cheap
Down Desire Avenue

One bite of cold and one of heat
A sip of lust a sip of pain
A careless way to cross the street
That is the way to play this game

Now - is a red-hot piece of coal
Thrown right at you
This isn't courage anymore
Down Desire Avenue

10. Now that you're learning
I'm turning out the light
Now that you're leaving
To see things black and white
Now that you're leaving
To kill you in the dark
To give my last remark
I'll stay up tonight
Now that you're leaving

I'm running backwards on a train
All is coming back to me again
A crowd of people in my way
And everyone has got your face
Between what I was
And what I will be
I'm held back by your ghost
And what I couldn't be
