Tricky:
She's the one makes me feel these ways
He's the one needs some raise/ways
Can't stand to feel
Hate to feel
Gone insane
Highjack a plane
Don't push me 'cause I'm close to the edge
Trying hard not to lose my head
Can't hardly breathe
I've been and seen
She hides my ventolin
Can't hardly breathe [x3]
Martina :
( I'm the one ), I'm the one

(Tricky/Neneh Cherry/Mark Saunders)

Into the morning
Got me through the night
I've seen the light
I see the light
I love of what I need
I've got greed
I've been a sinner for as long as I know
So help me understand
The little that I know
Shadow dancing with my spirit
Got to face your demon on your own
Take my body and put it through the dust
I've been buried in the crust

(Sioux/Severin/Budgie)

Cover [colour] me, cover [colour] me.
When you're sitting all alone in the middle of the floor,
There's something uncontrollable,
You sit there watching the door,
Cover me, cover me.
Cover me, cover me.

already feelin' tied to your bad side [Already feel ill,
Tattoo you're bad side]
Slap your thigh,
Slap your mouth [calf],
Sing your mantra,

To the noose, to the neck, to the boost, to the check
To the micic, to the psychic, to the circuit
To the games pays to blame
To the freedom, make it rain, make it sane
Make it dance, not a chance, see her run
See her come, take her kindly
She is dark eyed, no soul, no soul
She is lifeline to the heartbeat
Can't feel the heartbeat
To the flowers, to the bunches,

I'm rated "R"...this is a warning, ya better void,
Poets are paranoid, DJ's destroyed,
'Cause I came back to attack others in spite-
Strike like lightnin', It's quite frightenin'
But don't be afraid in the dark, in a park,
Not a scream or a cry, or a bark, more like a spark;
Tremble like a alcoholic, muscles tighten up,
What's that, lighten up, you see a sight but,

Tricky
You sure you want to be with me
I've nothing to give
Wwon't lie and say this lovin's best
Leave us in emotional peace
Take a walk, taste the rest
No, take a rest

I see you digging a hole in your neighborhood
You're crazy but you're lazy
No need to live in a lean-to
Your troubles must be seen to seen to

(Martin Gore)

Is simplicity the best
Or simply the easiest
The narrowest path
Is always the holiest
So walk on barefoot for me
Suffer some misery
If you want my love
If you want my love

Man will survive
The harshest conditions
And stay alive
Through difficult decisions
So make up your mind for me
Walk the line for me
If you want my love
If you want my love

Idle talk

( From the Hollywood show 1/25/97, long version of Vent with other
lyrics )
And i don't wanna say "Jew"
Cos I've a [poor piece of paper]
But i think i can say what i want
Cos i am what i am
Cos i am what i am
I can say anything
I don't need to write chorus and verses
Making some cash
Making some purses
And I'll make money
For the money
To go on
Make some money

Tricky :
I stand firm for our soil
Lick a rock on foil
So reduce me, seduce me,
Dress me up in stussy.
Hell is round the corner where I shelter.
Isms and schisms, we're living helter skelter
If you believe I deceive common sense says shall you receive
Let me take you down the corridors of my life.
And when you walk, do you walk to your preference

(Ricky Walters)

Once upon a time not long ago,
when people wore pajamas and lived life slow,
When laws were stern and justice stood,
and people were behavin' like they ought ta good,
There lived a lil' boy who was misled,
by another little boy and this is what he said:
"Me & you tonight are gonna make some cash,
robbin' old folks and makin' tha dash",

Choir :
Those men will break your bones,
Don't know how to build stable homes.
Those men will break your bones,
Don't know how to build stable homes.
Polly Jean Harvey :
Those men will break your bones,
Don't know how to build stable homes.
PJ Harvey & Tricky :
We loose our voice more each year,
Maybe we won't bring soon
Is there cancer in the throat ?
No stress

Move over, move over, yeah you heard what I said, move over.

I feel so lonely, havent slept a wink,
I walk the floor, watch the door,
And in between I drink, black coffee,
Loves a hand-me-down brew,
I'll never know a white sunday, in this weekday blue,
I'm talking to the shadows one o'clock till four,
And lord how slow the moments go,
All I do is pour, black coffee..
