@ALBUM: Here Today, Tomorrow Next Week! Lyrics typed in from the HTTNW lyric book by Adam Dawes. Contact me on Internet: AD32@vms.bton.ac.uk Fidonet: Adam Dawes@2:441/93.5 I am desperately in love with Bjork and I want anything Bjork related! (Or Bjork herself :) @SONG: Tidal Wave The diesel is so nice I just need something The barometer's falling down, I feel so sultry Something is simmering and boiling inside me If I ignore it and squeeze out laughter I charge up with a typhoon, hurricanes and storms I just need the diesel I just find the smell I just sniff it and I can feel the harbour just close by I just try to sniff the diesel but I can't A tide with an undertow, the sea is swelling Impatience makes me foam A wave inside me forces out big words They splash and sprinkle An angry torrent breaking loose, a flush or rushing joy The diesel, It just makes me feel It just fills my veins so quickly I don't know why it just does I'm down by the harbour A cigarette would be ideal Then I remember that the diesel... And I can't help it, I'm exploding again I'm calling weather station NOMAD And satellite NIMBUS It's a blizzard inside me, a bomb ticking This is the tidal wave Here comes the tidal wave. @SONG: Regina Came from the east Relative forgot To scrape away Land in south Exhausted engine No teeth No chance to stop Meet Johnny Came from the east Like the sun But with tired engine Regina otherwise magnificent Regina in good bloom As old as the sun With white teeth Land on islands Meet Johnny Examine my red Basalt cluster Bottomless dust, terrific sun And wetting quite nicely thankyou I do say nicely I do mean that Actually Blow into the chastity belt Regina, Regina, Hex and bitch and Deserves lobster and fame.. Oh, Johnny, Teeth and gums In my life Moon and sun In my life Lobster and shrimp In my life I don't really like lobster Regina is too old But the sun is much older Still the sun with white teeth But Mrs R. with none Sun with false teeth Give me lobster and fame! I really don't like lobster! @SONG: Speed Is The Key Straight into the air At lightning speed Fasten your seatbelts The future is mine I'm a future woman In an irresistable world Fast and sparkling Speed is the key Lizards at lightning speed, Surprise me all the time Does no one respect space rules? A big fresh meat slice Streamlined solid steal knife in it I must energize Speed is the key Lizards playing around And I'm one of them Lizards of the world unite I'm a spacegirl Pass me that aeroplane I've got to go now Speed is the key I'm a space woman Shaped like a bullet No barriers Whoosh, there goes another second! Doubt kills Speed is the key @SONG: Dream TV Last night a good dream woke me up I'm a T.V. Transforming T.V. I was entertained and smiled Jumped straight out of my bed Humming this and that And got myself a glass of water And sat down in my favourite chair And kept smiling but not for long Because I realised that all my dreams are Nothing but the repetition Of last week's television I was no longer amused by my dream. I'm on my knees Down on all four follows Antennae Thrust out through my forehead Like a lame turtle I paced the room This new found knowledge could only blame myself And no one else tried to sleep again Not a dream, not again But then remembered That all my dreams are Nothing but the repetition Of last week's television I've turned into a T.V. My screen is smiling to get your attention I want you So I jumped out of my bed And into the T.V. room And in my anger Threw the T.V. set out the window Regretted instantly Because this was a brand new 26 inch T.V. Set in my bed once again, Couldn't sleep Because all my life, All my dreams had gone out the window With this new T.V. set @SONG: Nail Walk through here When I've been just by myself I start thinking too much Unhealthy things start to happen Like gastric disorders I just go out walking With my favourite piece of wood With a 4 inch nail driven through it When I am just by myself I think too much I start polishing my behaviour Without any mercy Somehow people Don't seem to like me, I don't know why, I really don't want to hurt them When I've been just by myself I start thinking too much I know I'm not talkative What! I've become dry? An emotional biscuit That's nonsense! Sir, this nail of yours is rusty It's evil I like them but when I hit them They scream and run away Even though I say I'm sorry. I like meeting people. @SONG: Pump Eat me Eat me love Leave nothing behind Swallow me, all of me Drink me love Pour me in you Devour me Drink me in large gulps Consume me love I want you To inhale me all of me Drown me love In a bottomless pond I'll never return Swallow me, all of me I prefer you in a form of a love letter I don't like you, I hate you Your smug little smile makes me sick I gave you nothing, you gave me nothing, Why did we meet... Eat me love Your open mouth Eat.. me.. love I, on your tongue, You got to eat me love.. Eat me love You gulp me Eat me love I-I down your gullet You eat me love. Eat me love, I in the stomach, Eat me love, eat me love, You splash acid on me. Eat me love, I travel down the intestines, Eat me love, Through the bowels And out! Eat me love! Eat me love! I hate you! @SONG: Eat The Menu Limousines, oranges, Stars, moons, Submarines, Jeeps, Glaciers, Cars, Caterpillars, even grapes It's none of my business But you have to eat Your appetite is appalling Have some salad Bite an apple Suck an oragne Taste the pate I'm just a maid, but yes to food is yes to life I've got to eat something Otherwise I'll just die But the choice is too great I can't decide what to eat I'll possibly just eat the menu? How would you like strawberry juice? Or lemon red sea perch? Bite the kiwi Have some chicken I'm just a maid, but yes to food is yes to life The waiter came with the menu And said here you go. I said thankyou but The choice is too great, Why can't I be a cod In the depths of the ocean And just eat small fish The cod has such simple taste But O've got all the choice Oh, you vague costomer You'll have to look somewhere else You have to find something to eat So eat a moment A person An apple A feeling Eat a rockband I won't complain but... @SONG: The Bee Who is it? Who'll get the sting Who'll get the stripes Black and yellow A dangerous creature Chattering wings Flashing antennae Who is it? It buzzes fine The bee Buzzes fine, stings deep I play a frightened little game I eject myself at scary speed In front of cars and i go yeaah! She is it She's got the sting She's dangerous She stings He gets stung He is out She gets the honey She is it She flies great The bee Flies great, stings deep The cars freeze from fright, When they see my beautiful body and tongue Then I speed away but no one catches me. I'm the fastest bee in town. Oh, hot bee Queen of heaven With glossy trunk Buzz to me I want to be stung I want to be out Here is the honey You're it It stings deep The bee Stings deep, kills fast @SONG: Dear Plastic Plastic Nylon Terylene Made of atoms By tender fingers And determined heads Of inventors Tickling Perfection Plastic Rayon I was born aeons ago Before anything human was known My friends the alchemists Told me everything was natural And will always be that way And possible to make gold from dirt Plastic Nylon Dear plastic Be proud Don't imitate anything You're pure, pure, pure Plastic Nylon I believed I was their dustbin for knowledge Took everything and digested Of course I became big and strong Today I'm old and withering away My friends the alchemists Long disappeared into dust I no longer get anything fruity No longer gold made from dirt Now I only get spacefood on a tray Plastic Eggimanyinonde Plastic Saggiraranana @SONG: Water Wait for me underneath the water Wait for me I have to go now Into the big city She pulls me firmly towards her Wait for me underneath the water Wait for me here You'll be fine underneath the water I'll be back early next summer We met again at the lake After all these years, You said "want a drink?" I love you And you know I will be back Hold your breath And nestle into the ice Wait for me underneath the water Wait for me and count to ten You'll look up and I will be there Wait for me The lake was frozen, You took me for a walk over the ice, I cracked The ice cracked I fell into the lake I watched you through the eyes Love into you Wait for me underneath the water Wait for me and singalong "She's coming, coming, coming" Wait for me I watched you through the ice I expected you to crawl for help I smiled, you just stood there I tried to kiss you through the ice, You just walked away @SONG: A Day Called Zero A day called zero Is the day we'll all relax Mountains will tumble With a long and heavy thump Dust spreads on the sky So the sun will grow pale Oil tanks tear open And the city livens up A day called zero Will be such a busy day Whistling marches? I'll hoover my past away Controlling a bulldozer I will improve my town Stacking concrete slabs Me and you my pluto Will you be with me on that day? We'll be watching and smiling At last it's over Nothing stops us now Come and enter Me let's multiply On a day called zero @SONG: Planet The universe it is so big I feel dizzy when I think about it My head swims I get giddy Still I realize that long ago It was so small I could have kept it Underneath my little skirt At least until the big bang happened Every man, every woman Sun planet the universe and me When I'm excited and have to wait My organs start to move, my lungs pump Cells flow faster on tracks inside me I demand to see myself from within Be a cell for a day Every man, every woman Sun planet the universe and me The planets and me we get along so well together Gliding down imaginary rollercoaster-paths along the sky I can do somersaults around Jupiter if I feel like it Nothing can stop a planet But a planet can stop anything at all Every man, every woman Sun planet the universe and me
