1. THE KILLING KIND



Tell my story about love,
What lovers find.
A story of possession,
Oh, killing kind.
He went out guns a-blazin',
Shot right in to the wind.
I watched him delicately frazzle,
His lights, they slowly dimmed.

Not cold at all, it's my demon talkin'.
Feeling so bold, it's my sugar talkin'.

This love is fatal, but oh so sublime.
Love that's killing, this love's the killing kind.
I have been taken, I have been blind.
This love is killing, this love's the killing kind.
Sticky situation,
I been here before.

Burn up that greasy wheel,
And go singing like a whore.
Wanna hear about the honey?
You wanna hear about the game?
When you look in to her darkness,
Baby's got a sense of pain.

Not cold at all, it's my demon talkin'.
Feeling so bold, it's my sugar talkin'.

This love is fatal, but oh so sublime.
Love that's killing, this love's the killing kind.
I have been taken, I have been blind.
This love is killing, this love's the killing kind.





2. RUN BOY RUN



Hey Mr. Fanciful, Mr. Cheer
Who let you in now?
How'd you get here?
Mr. Cocksure, Mr. Changeface
First in the trough

And fix the race
It ain't enough, it ain't enough
You sure talk tough but you cut up rough
It ain't enough, it ain't enough
You sure talk tough but you cut up rough
So brother keep your back to the sun
I smell trouble, better run boy run
No jingle jangle, no beat on the drum

Coming for you, better run boy run
Here's Mr. Charming, oh Mr. Nice
Trusting you is like throwing the dice
So Mr. Junkie, oh Mrs. Tramp
Where'd you leave your moral stamp?
It ain't enough, it ain't enough
You sure talk tough but you cut up rough
It ain't enough, it ain't enough

You sure talk tough but you cut up rough
So brother keep your back to the sun
I smell trouble, better run boy run
No jingle jangle, no beat the drum
Coming for you, better run boy run
Hell will be your freezing sun
Here I am, better run boy run
No jingle jangle, no beat the drum
Coming for you, better run boy run

You gotta run boy run
I said, so brother keep your back to the sun
I smell trouble, better run boy run
No jingle jangle, no beat the drum
Coming for you, better run boy run
Oh brother don't bump and wail
Gonna be like a hellhound on your trail
No jingle jangle, no rattle the drum
Coming for you, better run boy run





3. BALLAD OF THE LEFT HAND GUN



What I want, what I got
Won't shine in an open lot
What I have, what I need
Is a taste for luxury greed
I spend money like a waterfall
Won and lost in the gambling brawl
My shoes speak Italian style
Out of fashion for a long long while

The names have changed
And the stories run
This is the ballad of the left hand gun
The names have changed
But the story runs
This is the ballad of the left hand gun

Forty years he played guitar
Forty years he hit up every bar
I hear the champ is past his prime
Lost it all on the spin of a dime
I have a clock up on the wall
Comes from China, don't tell the time at all
Women came and women went
Some were ugly and some heaven sent

The names have changed
And the stories run
This is the ballad of the left hand gun
The names have changed
It will run
This is the ballad of the left hand gun

All for nothing
All for small change
Here's for the glory
Here's for the strange

The names have changed
And the stories run
This is the ballad of the left hand gun
The names have changed
It will run
This is the ballad of the left hand gun

All for nothing
All for small change
Here's for the glory
Here's for the strange





4. SUGAR CANE



Riding high up on Black Horn Ridge
Crossing over the Tallahatchie Bridge
Pour me a trigger nail of sparkling kind
This road is gnarly and it's weather lined

Fall, she's the colour of rain
Kiss away my pain
My sugar cane
I said fall, she's the colour of rain
Kiss away my pain

I saw the badlands in the mirror light
I saw my lover run as she took flight
If I could get home just on time
Before some sucker tries to take what's mine

I said fall, it's the colour of rain
Kiss away my pain
My sugar cane
I said fall, she's the colour of rain
Kiss away my pain
She's my sugar cane

I do righteous now outside the law
I've got something worth fighting for
Give me a kiss now one last time
I'll send you spinning like a capital crime
I cut you slack with your fancy walk
I give you space with your fancy talk
What I won't do is give up to you
I got something special that you never knew

Fall, she's the colour of rain
Kiss away my pain
Sugar cane
Fall, she's the colour of rain
Kiss away my pain
Oh sugar cane

I said fall, she's the colour of rain
Kiss away my pain
My sugar cane
I said fall, she's the colour of rain
Kiss away my pain
Never again

Kiss away my pain





5. DEVIL'S IN THE DETAIL



We had great expectations
We had a lavender sea
We had cause and the potions
Prince of the city, king of the keys

The devil's in the detail
Your secret's safe with me
The devil's in the detail
And we're all out to sea
The devil's in the detail
We're at the watershed
The devil's in the detail
Sleeping in my bed
The devil's in the detail
Weaved within the cloth
The devil's in the detail
He's out collecting moths

The gates of Babylon opened
We fell upon our prey
Everything was taken
It was the summer of our day
Come here my skanky toady
Let me whisper in your ear
If you think you're fooling anyone
Baby it's not very clear

The devil's in the detail
Your secret's safe with me
The devil's in the detail
And we're all out to sea
The devil's in the detail
Underneath the stone
The devil's in the detail
Chewing on the bone
The devil's in the detail
We're at the watershed
The devil's in the detail
She's sleeping in my bed

The devil's in the detail
We're at the watershed
The devil's in the detail
Now she's sleeping in my bed
The devil's in the detail
Underneath the stone
The devil's in the detail
It's chewing on the bone

The devil's in the detail, the devil's in the detail
Your secret's safe, your secret's safe with me





6. PRECIOUS CARGO



Put on your long black morning gown
Get on your crazy horse crown
Sat here watching oh a dead man blow
It's cold outside riding the winter snow

And if it comes tomorrow
And if it comes today
I don't see this working out
With the one that got away

The scatter roller's coming down
Summer's been and turned around
It don't seem so long ago
That you were my precious cargo
The scatter roller's coming down
Summer's been and turned around
It don't seem so long ago
That you were my precious cargo
My precious cargo, my precious cargo

The truth is stacked in this deck of cards
A promise lost wrapped in these ivory barbs
Elizabeth sings oh she's my queen of hearts
Souls of men die and actors pick up the parts

If it comes tomorrow
If it comes today
I don't see this working out
With the one that got away

The scatter roller's coming down
Summer's been and turned around
It don't seem so long ago
That you were my precious cargo
The scatter roller's coming down
Summer's been and turned around
It don't seem so long ago
That you will always be my precious cargo
My precious cargo
You'll always be my precious cargo

If it comes tomorrow
If it comes today
I don't see this working out
With the one that got away

The scatter roller's coming down
Oh my booty's back around
It don't seem so long ago
That you were my precious cargo
The scatter roller's coming down
Summer's been and turned around
It don't seem so long ago

That you were my precious cargo
The scatter roller's coming down
Summer's been and gone around
It don't seem so long ago
You were my precious precious cargo





7. THE REAL DEAL



She seen my momma, took me to delights.
She go dizzy without warning.
She wrap you up, like a Saturday night
Show you until the morning.

You can hear the angels singing,
At the admiral Amsterdam.
Lyin on a naked bed,
Hear the radio jam.

No more sleeping, cos this is the real deal.
No more talking, cos this is the real deal.
I won't be forsaken, cos this is the real, real, real deal, baby.
No more fakin', cos this is the real deal, baby.

She spins me round like a donkey by the tail,
She has a mystical power.
She points her finger to the gunpowder trail,
I think I'm climbing higher.

You can hear the angels singing,
At the admiral Amsterdam.
Spread out here on the naked sheet,
Listening to the radio jam.

No more sleeping, cos this is the real deal, yes it is.
I ain't for fakin' it, cos this is the real deal.
I ain't forsakin', cos this is the real deal, baby.
No more fakin', cos this is the real deal, the real deal, baby.

And we said goodbye to the morning,
And the fallen sky.
The meanest year we ever saw,
Before we said goodbye.
Goodbye.

This is the real deal, oh yeah.
This is the real deal, baby.
This is the real deal,
Accept no substitute.
This is the real deal.
This is the real deal.





8. ONE AND ONLY



Babe I wanna see you
Just to see your face
Wrap my arms around you darling
Feel your body race
The chemist is cooking
Cooking up a pie
Settle back my honey now
Daddy's touching the sky

This is something for my one and only
This is something for my sad and lonely

I can't bear this any more
Cos I've never been this lonely before
And it ain't over till it's over
And it ain't over yet, no, no, no, no

Baby you're shaking
In and out of my dreams
Slipping into something loose
Slipping out of jeans
A gunman from Laredo
Is inside my house
He has on silver spurs
But he's silent as a mouse

This is something for my one and only
This is something for my sad and lonely

I can't bear this any more
Cos I've never been this lonely before
And it ain't over till it's over
And it ain't over yet, no, no, no, no
Babe I wanna see you
Just to see your face
Wrap my arms around you darling
Feel your body race

This is something for my one and only
This is something for my sad and lonely

I can't bear this any more
Cos I've never been this lonely before
And it ain't over till it's over
And it ain't over yet
And it ain't over till it's over
Oh no, no, baby you said it





9. MESSIAH OF LOVE



I'm gonna love you
I got a kiss just like a killer bee
Someone to roll you
Climbing up on your cherry tree
Up to the limit
Up to the sky
A kiss goodnight
The long good bye

Let me show you what's more than enough
Let me show you the Messiah of Love
Let me take you to heaven above
Let me give you the Messiah of Love

Someone to soothe you
Up and down life's greasy pole
I'm gonna save you
Turn you around and give you jelly roll
Up to the limit
Up to the sky
A kiss goodnight
The long good bye

Let me show you what's more than enough
Let me show you the Messiah of Love
Let me take you to heaven above
Let me give you the Messiah of Love

Some come to do battle
Some just come for more
And I'm here to tell you darling
I'm going to settle my score

Let me show you what's more than enough
Let me show you the Messiah of Love
Let me take you to heaven above
Let me give you the Messiah of Love





10. ROLLIN' ROLLIN'



I was a high roller, tightly wound
Never missed a beat, never had my feet on the ground
All the ley lines criss cross my floor
The glittering prize beyond my door
So look through my window
Disrupt my sleep
This addictional coma
I'm counting black sheep

I said no, no, no, no
We ain't gonna let you go
I made you a promise
It's one I can't keep
We keep on rollin' rollin'
Rollin' down, rollin' baby right through your town
Rollin' rollin'
Rollin' down, rollin' baby right through your town

All the dry drunks gnash and wail
They all have such a scintillating tale
It's a cold wind blows through the pines
Up from the coast to the death valley line
I see the tempest
The whorey storm
Burning my eyes
Like galvanised porn

No, no, no, no
We ain't gonna let you go
I made you a promise
It's one I can't keep
Cos I'm rollin' rollin'
Rollin' down, rollin' baby right through your town
Rollin' rollin'
Rollin' down, rollin' baby right through your town

I made you a promise
It's one I can't keep
Cos I'm rollin' rollin'
Rollin' down, rollin' baby right through your town
Rollin' rollin'
Rollin' down, rollin' baby right through your town







11. KING OF THE HILL (BONUSTRACK)



I'm in a world and nothing's real
I caught a life on a spinning wheel
These tinted glasses will amaze
I see the world through my lovely haze

Well I may forget my earthly roots
I wear the cloak of whatever suits
So here's one for you, the rest for me
I'm like a tick, a musical flea

Lord of the manor
Hey I'm laird of the vale
Boss of the mill
Well I'm king of the hill

He has a wife Yo Sing Tong
Cantonese can't do no wrong
Yet my garden sings in harmony
Don't know how to spell misery

Lord of the manor
Yes I'm laird of the vale
Boss of the mill
Call me king of the hill

Lord of the manor
Laird of the vale
Boss of the mill
Well I am king of the hill

A prince among men
A purveyor of Zen
One shallow pool
Call me Mr. Wonderful
King of the hill
