REPUBLICA - REPUBLICA (1996)
Ready to go, ready to go
You're weird, in tears, too near and too far away

Baby, I'm ready to go
You've got red shoes
And the sports car
You think you're really cool, I gotta say
You just don't know what games to play
You like football
And play on Saturdays
When the weekends gone, you go to work
In a nasty office as a filing clerk
So don't you tell me, I'm not listening
I've already heard it
You better watch your back
I'm gonna take you on, I'm gonna take you on, I'm gonna take you on
I'm gonna take you on, I'm gonna take you on, I'm gonna take you on
Mobile, but no conversation
You've got credit cards, megadrive
Fax me lunch, Mister 9 to 5
You've got timeshare
For your holidays
It's the same routine, the life you lead
The friends you keep, your lack of taste
So don't you tell me, I'm not listening
I've already heard it
You better watch your back
I'm gonna take you on, I'm gonna take you on, I'm gonna take you on
I'm gonna take you on, I'm gonna take you on, I'm gonna take you on
I'm gonna take you on, I'm gonna take you on, I'm gonna take you on
I'm gonna take you on, I'm gonna take you on, I'm gonna take you on
I'm gonna take you on
I'm gonna take you on
Take me on, take me on, take me on
I'm gonna take you on
Take me on, take me on, take me on,
I'm gonna take you on
I want everything, I want everything
I want a limousine, a diamond ring
I want everything
I wanna taste the good life
I wanna sip from the golden cup
I wanna drink champagne in the early morning hours of the city nights
And if I stay out late don't wait up for me
I want
One dove, two hearts
A free ride to be who I wanna be
One life, one vision
Street life just for the hell of it
One dove, two hearts
A free ride to be who I wanna be
One life, one vision, one vision
I want the best of both worlds
I want total attraction
I want a piece of the cake
A piece of the action
I'm gonna take it to the limit
And get more than I bargained for
There's no regrets, make no mistake
I'm gonna get what I want
Whatever it takes
And if I push too far don't wait up for me
I want
One dove two hearts
A free ride to be who I wanna be
One life, one vision
Street life just for the hell of it
One dove, two hearts
A free ride to be who I wanna be
One life, one vision, one vision
I want everything
I want everything
I want everything
I want everything
I wanna sip from the golden cup
I wanna drink champagne
I wanna sip from the golden cup
I wanna drink champagne
I want everything
I want everything
One more day on the roller coaster
If I scream they spin me faster
Everything gone backwards
And its upside down
Stop me dead oh I think I'm falling
Falling from the fourteenth storey
One more line and it will be morning
Hit the floor
So stop the traffic, stop the clock, stop the lot
I wanna get off, I wanna get off with you
I wanna get off, I wanna get off with you
One more job in the supermarket
One more kick to get me started
Everyone get on board, this ship is sinking
Hanging out I don't want to be there
Took a train to another city
Chinese food in a tower block frenzy
Why I'm here is mystery to me
So stop the traffic
Stop the clock, stop the lot
I wanna get off, I wanna get off with you
I wanna get off, I wanna get off with you
Like a speeding car you want more, more, more
Like a rattlesnake I hate
I wanna get off, I wanna get off with you
Like a speeding car you want more, more, more
Like a rattlesnake I hate
I wanna get off, I wanna get off with you
I wanna get off, I wanna get off with you
I wanna get off, I wanna get off with you
I wanna get off, I wanna get off with you
I wanna get off, I wanna get off with you
I wanna get off, I wanna get off with you
I wanna get off, I wanna get off with you

Get up, alarm clock, lip gloss, what a shock
Get dressed, front door, more stress what for?
Trapped in your world
You know you're trappped in your world
Lunch hour, fast food, telephone, more abuse
VU, headache, cigarettes, coffee break
Trapped in your world
You know you're trappped in your world
Out of the darkness, over the tower blocks into the light
Go into the rush hour, out of the factory, leave it behind
Turn on your TV, back to suburbia, every night
Come out of the darkness, over the offices, into the light
Leave work, happy hour, too drunk by far
Bus full, waterloo, fall asleep on the tube
Trapped in your world
You know you're trappped in your world
Vodka, lemonade, ashtrays, what a shame
Poor cow, sits alone, pubs closed, go home
Trapped in your world
You know you're trappped in your world
Out of the darkness, over the tower blocks into the light
Go into the rush hour, out of the factory, leave it behind
Turn on your TV, back to suburbia, every night
Come out of the darkness, over the offices, into the light
Out of the darkness, over the tower blocks into the light
Go into the rush hour, out of the factory. leave it behind
Turn on your TV, back to suburbia, every night
Come out of the darkness, over the offices, into the light
Wrap your body around me so we are one
Wrap your arms and your legs and your hands and your tongue
Wrap your words and your life, your feelings and pain
Wrap your cheatin's and your memories
Wrap your touch and your shame
Wrap your body around me, in you I will hide
Wrap your cold and your warm
Wrap your truth and your lies
Wrap your past and your plans
Wrap your secrets and hair
What you keep to yourself and baby what you share
Wrap my body in you
Wrap my body in you
Wrap my body in you
Wrap my body in you
Wrap your body around me so it feels like home
And where your heart is and your pictures and your keys and clothes
Wrap your language and your places, your sex and your taste
Your music and your money, what you love and you hate
Wrap your body around me till it hurts I said
I wanna get lost in your news and your bed
Tie me in with your juices, your tears and your sweat
Take me with your muscles, your teeth and your scent
Wrap my body in you
Wrap my body in you
Wrap my body in you
Wrap my body in you
Turn your head off, turn the music up
Dont't let it push you down, out of hand get off
Don't ever think of him, don't ever let him in
He'll go round and round and round and make your head spin
You're a big boy with a big mouth
Talkin big time just spit it out
Take the back seat till you feel alright
You get your own way, all day, every time
Love me, hate me, hurt me and break me
Want me, take me, but don't ever leave me
Don't you ever leave me
Push the boat out keep your feelings in
He tore your world apart, never start giving him
Don't promise anything
He'll see the state you've been
Hand on your heart, never lasts, didn't it
You got a small mind in a small town
Let your head spin give me the run around
I wish I didn't care, I wish I wasn't there
You get your own way, all day, everywhere
Love me, hate me, hurt me and break me
Want me, take me, but don't ever leave me
But don't ever leave me
Don't you ever leave me
Don't you ever, don't you ever, don't you ever
Don't you ever, don't you ever, don't you ever
I wish I didn't care
I wish I wasn't there
You get your own way, all day everywhere
Love me, hate me hurt me and break me
Want me, take me but, don't ever leave me
Hate me, hurt me and break me
Want me, take me, but don't ever leave me
Hate me, hurt me and break me
Want me, take me, but don't ever leave me
Don't you ever leave me
Hate me, hurt me, and break me
Want me, take me but don't ever leave me
But don't ever leave me
Marilyn baby, wants to be a pop star
She's seventeen, and very unhappy
Frankie baby, used to be a big fish
He's ethnic boy and ain't got no money
And Holly wouldn't be so precious
If the beach bum beauties weren't so delicious in Hollywood
Who cares anyway?
Who really cares anyway?
Who cares anyway?
Who really cares anyway?
Frankie baby, sees punks on the sidewalk
Freaks on the freeway
Someone blows a kid away
Have a nice day
Sweet sweet Marilyn
A streetwise heroine
A tricks, a fix, a fix, a tricks, a fix, a fix
She'll do anything
And Holly woudn't be so tragic
When everybody trips the light fantastic in Hollywood
Who cares anyway?
Who really cares anyway?
Who cares anyway?
Who really cares anyway?
In the Hollywood bowl of serial killers
Who cares anyway?
Holly don't give a damn
Holly don't give a damn
Who cares anyway?
Who really cares anyway?
Who cares anyway?
Who really cares anyway?
In the Hollywood bowl of serial killers
