Harley Davidson

These are the original lyrics by Serge Gainsbourg;
The Popguns version is slightly different.

Je n'ai besoin de personne
En Harley Davidson
Je n'reconnais plus personn'
En Harley Davidson
J'appui sur le starter
Et voice qui je quitte la terre
J'irai p't'être au Paradis
Mais dans un train d'enfer

Je n'ai besoin de personne
En Harley Davidson
Je n'reconnais plus personn'
En Harley Davidson
Et si je meurs demain
C'est que tel était mon destin
Je tiens bien moins à la vie
Qu'à mon terrible engin

Je n'ai besoin de personne
En Harley Davidson
Je n'reconnais plus personn'
En Harley Davidson
Quand je sens en chemin
Les trépidations de ma machine
Il me monte des désirs
Dans le creux de mes reins

Je n'ai besoin de personne
En Harley Davidson
Je n'reconnais plus personn'
En Harley Davidson
Je vais à plus de cent
Et je me sens à feu et à sang
Que m'importe de mourir
En Harley Davidson

Star

You were inspired on the first day you saw her
you thought that she could make you someone

You took the pictures, all she did was stand there
smiling and clueless that's what you thought

The irony of innocense and profit was not wasted on her

Tell them how you made the star from the back seat of your car
to the heady stages of the fashion pages
used to call here every day but the line is now engaged
will you wait forever for that voice from heaven

Little by little they tried to take her from you
that's when you found out you were in love

you wouldn't hurt her, though you could make a million
for you have seen her closer than most

The beauty of her innocense could not survive and she should know it

Tell them how you made the star from the back seat of your car
to the heady stages of the fashion pages
You could take her back again to the dull insistent pain
where you've been for too long and you know you don't belong

She could have never come this far, NO

Get Out

On the staircase where they wrapped you body
I can sense a lonely soul
In the bedroom the heater humming
heard somebody whisper low

Can you feel me?
I don't want to listen anymore
Can you feel me?
Just remember we were never really crazy

Get out of my house I want you out
I know you can't believe it
Get out of my house I want you out
Pretend you can't believe that I
could have said those things now you are so alone
baby go where you should have gone
you cannot live again

Try to tease me with an ancient story
of a pure and driven love
so enacted on a broken mattress, all that you were dreaming of

what a liar
I know everything about you
what a liar
Just remember I was never all you needed

Stay Alive

You won't say anything at all
You just stare at the wall
It's just another endless sunny day

They may get angry at the waste
But you prefer the taste
Of something that will take you far away

Did you dream that it was over
Stay alive
though you know no-one needs you tonight
Keep your head on
Stay alive
while the fever is raging inside
Keep your head on tonight

This city centre closes down
as you are coming round
And all your friends are nowhere to be found

And as the echoes of the night
are racing in your mind
You wander home to lay your body down

Though you know it never changes
Stay alive
though you know no-one needs you tonight
Keep your head on
Stay alive
while the fever is raging inside
Keep your head on tonight

So Amazing

When I found you you were wounded and confused
Still I trusted all to you
Took my memories and cast them to the side
Laid your story next to mine

When the pieces of my mind are out of place
You can put them back again
Even now I find the thought of you can hide
All the worries of my life

She must be so amazing, she must be so amazing
To feel like that, to feel like that
She must be so amazing, she must be so amazing
To act like that, to act like that.

Suddenly I felt like everything was new
Seemed I came alive with you
Held your body 'til I thought it was my own
So I'd never be alone

She must be so amazing, she must be so amazing
To feel like that, to feel like that
She must be so amazing, she must be so amazing
To act like that, to act like that.

Crushed

Wipe the tears that wake you
In the middle of the night
Just another sad dream
And there is no reason why

Why don't I Introduce you
To some pain That's not in your mind
I won't cry But it has to end Sometime

Dragging through the streets now
As the darkness turns to light
The memories are easy
It's the visions that you fight

Wipe the tears that wake you
In the middle of your life
Crushed between the history
And the future that you fight

What Are You Waiting For?

Behind your eyes
Inside your mind
The demons that you keep there
They try to bring you down

Your first defence
Your confidence
You will not be defeated
By things you cannot see

How am I supposed to argue?
How can I touch you
When everything you feel
An enemy to you

I couldn't make you realize
It's just a lie
It doesn't make it all right

I couldn't find the way inside
A way to try
Try to make it all right

You broke my heart
In the cold and dark
I walked alone for hours
To keep from going home

You needed me
But you set me free
I never even knew what
I was allowed to feel

How was I supposed to argue?
How could I touch you?
When everything you feel's
An enemy to you?

I couldn't make you realize
It's just a lie
It doesn't make it all right

No, I couldn't find the way inside
A way to try
Try to make it all right

What are you waiting for?

Daybreak

Midnight
When you tried to say goodbye
Well you waited just a moment
And I knew "He's mine".

Daybreak
Does your heart still hesitate?
All the way home from the party
I just felt so awake

Tell me I'm dreaming
Tell me I'm high
I should be leaving
But it feels too right

I tried
To continue with my life
You invaded every moment
Now I can't get by

One week
It's impossible to sleep
So I called you. Is it awkward?
Can we talk? Can't we speak?

I want to see you
I can't survive
I want to kiss you
I just can't survive

Don't say it's goodbye
Don't say it's goodbye
Don't say it's goodbye
I just can't survive

Can I Kick It?

missing; this is a Lou Reed song

Crazy

What do they expect of me?
I know I never see
I guess they think I'm just a kid
I don't fantasize about
The baby and the house
It could be easy if I did

But if I'm acting crazy, it's because I'm crazy
I'll do anything to get me out of here
And if I say I love you, then maybe I love you
Can't we just pretend it's all we need to know
It's all that matters

I could do the things I do
In half the time I do
But I am lazy and I won't
No self motivation and
no dedicated plan
I should be leaving but I don't

Gesture

This is how I make my peace
And this is how I talk to you
This is the only way I know
Makes me angry makes me weep
But this is hiw I have to speak
This is the only way I know

Oh it's not a gesture
Don't you know, it's all for real

Are you dreaming of another lonely place
While I try to laugh again, too late
Are you hauling up the words inside your mind
Are you waiting for the time to strike

Calling out into a crowd
I'm sure I said it all aloud
But no-one seems to hear me say
Could you help me with my life
I need someone to put it right
I need someone to put it right

I need someone to put it right
Oh it's not a gesture
Don't you know, it's all too real
