Hello, my name is Dexter Brown I’m a detective born in Shoggoth Town.
I think I’ve never seen you on a crime scene you look serene though it’s rather obscene
Get in my Chrysler for a while before we both work overnight
We’ll look for something new, look for the best clue
It’s not about me and you. I swear I won’t touch you.
Stop distracting me we gotta track down
The murderer
Stop distracting me we gotta track down the killer
The ripper, the rapist, the slayer, the killer
Don’t say “Freeze !’’you turn me on !
Sparing no effort to close a case you’re my Dana Scully wrapped in lace
Fresh, young and footloose, charming every dude, you’re always on the move to cure my blues
Your gorgon’s eyes would turn into stone Arthur Gordon Pym and Sherlock Holmes
I’m not sycophantic your weapon is a lipstick.
Thugs are on their knees whenever you say “Freeze !”
Stop distracting me we gotta track down
the murderer
Stop distracting me we gotta track down the killer
The ripper, the rapist, the slayer, the killer
Don’t say “Freeze !”
Freeze, you, killer !

Redliners

The moonlight is consuming all the seeds of your tender grace.
In the morning you’ll realize you’re bewitched in a fatal place.
Stop me if it’s going too far. This stupid game is lethal sometimes.
You’re moving under spotlights ignoring fifty shades of blade …
Well I’m...
Ecstactic in vain, attractive sinner !
Cause I’m the Great Inquisitor
Here’s the red line, babe !
You’ve crossed the red line
There's a hundred ways of torture
For your favorite tormentor
Don’t blame me if I crack the whip !
Snuff movie
Director’s cut … Ouch !
Sorry I did it on purpose
You want me cruel
So choose the tool
For the finale
My fallen angel
See this sca..., scavenger’s daughter ! Yeah funny !
And this sca, this Catherine Wheel
Tonight we’re playing doctor, yeah bunny!
And you might bleed for real
Well I’m…
Ecstactic in vain, attractive sinner !
Cause I’m your Great Inquisitor
Here’s the red line, babe !
You’ve crossed the redline
There’s a hundred ways of torture
For your favorite tormentor
Don’t blame me if I crack the whip !
We’re the redliners ! On a bonfire !

Last Call
02:09
|

Wake up, wake up ! The old phone’s ringing… Magic’s on its way !
Let me be your two tone wizard for one day…
Leave all your stress behind, dad !
Change your frame of mind !
No need for groaning and moaning there’s a world outside...
Last call before takeoff
Skatatonic trip
To the Land of Oz
Breathe in… And don’t hang up on me, this time !
Iron your tie, fix your suspenders
The clips once broke on your bad manners
But daddy, daddy, daddy, daddy you’re sixty today
Don’t think twice, we’ll probably fly
From Coventry to Camden Town
Hold the line, till we’re back in 1981
Last call before takeoff
Skatatonic trip
To the Land of Oz
Breathe in…
Hocus, Pocus on the spot ! Abracadabra on the hilltops !
Daddy, welcome back to the realm of afterbeats !
Take this hat and don your check socks !
We’re going to party round the clock !
Tonight you might well end up on your knees !
Don’t hang up on me, this time !

Tic Toc
03:30
|

Guess what ?!! Your pussy cat’s time-lagged
And led me to act like a lunatic attacked by thousands of circular memories
Digging a gap, digging a gap, digging a deep gap … deep gap !
Your drip mats, your joystick, your nic nacs
Have nothing to do here Take’ em all, take’ em back
Leave the weird clock you got for your granddad
Need its tic toc, tic toc tic toc … tic toc … company…
It’s, it’s eleven sixty
We’ve got one minute for good resolutions
Before the next clock revolution
Tic toc, black hole, white light, mystic flash
I’m your homestay superhero, your personal Donnie Darko
I’m your savour, I’m your nurse, you’re the only universe
For which I’d stick to my tactic… toc tic
It’s, it’s eleven sixty-one
No more seconds for good resolutions
Before the next odd revelation
Tic toc, tic toc, sudden clash
I’m stuck in a realm where it’s never too never...
I’m stuck in a realm where it’s never too never...
I’m stuck in a realm where it’s never too never...
I’m stuck in a realm where it’s never too never too late!

Lucy, Lucy
Tell me, darling, what’s going on ?
Your body’s lying naked on the sand
It’s juicy, juicy like your reds lips
They carry on
Whispering lyrics I don’t understand
How come we flew like two missiles from the office to paradise
As you can see, the locals look nice : They praise your big big booties and breasts
Please, babe, head for the palm trees, I’m sure they’re cannibals!
Forget your high heels and your left eye lens.
No doubt they’ll eat you first, you’re rosy, wild and blond.
Leave the beach as quickly as you can !
What if the boss and your husband knew ?
Even cannibals don’t approve
As we’re roasting on their barbecue
I must confess there was only you
Dream on ! Only you… Dream on !
Give in to the chief on a Jivaroan bed
He won’t need to shrink your head
Mine is already back to his desk
I sense this story was meaningless…
Wallpaper dreams on my laptop screen
Wallpaper daydreams !
What a silly ending !

Hurry up ! Your wish is about to sink to the bottom of your pint of stout
Slow down ! You’re skating off tracks
You’d better book a cruise, a trip away from your cracks yeah !!!
It’s Tuesday, the week’s getting wild
I’m stuck in the underground with zombies all around
We’re on the starting line when some colleagues of mine
Ask my bout my life : ‘‘Is it all right ?’’
Yes, it’s all right… All right… All right…All right…
It’s 6 p.m. I’m struggling with the washing up and babies’cries
The fallen pastas are like reptiles creeping on the green ceramic tiles
She needs a clutter-free space qnd a steady Feng Shui place
Plus a handyman to colour her cold days
Let me breathe, let me sleep, I’m sick of obscene futilities
But it’s all right, All right… All right…All right…
I choke in the shower just before the rush hour
Expecting last spring like a P.K. Dick’s offspring
You long for a wedding but I’m not the Lord of one Ring
I face all the storms of your wild mood swings
Maybe I was hooked in vain (all right)
I exhausted myself in your flames (all right)
Weak and bleary-eyed (all right)
We mixed losses with love at first sight (all right)
Bitch, this marriage hearse (all right)
Is beyond our family purse (all right)
Let’s break up with a fight (all right)
For an ultimate tango night (all right)
Bored with you, honey and your daddy and your mummy
I’m bored with your dog and your goddamn money
Cause modern life is rubbish, it’s a gate with no key
So hear me say : “No more No more No more honkey donkey !”
No more “All right” “All right” “All right”
No more “All right” “All right” “All right”

Foxtrot Bimbo

Drink your memories dry or on the rocks
But don’t shed tears on my silver jukebox !
Ten lives hide in my vinyl sighs
And the more we swing, the more you remind me…
My foxtrot bimbo
Young Steve is collecting pin-up girls from a distant past
While Eve is dancing trapped in a magic sandglass
Need a good vibe for our vintage tribe
Let’s travel in time and move on ragtime
Smile, please ! Back to the thirties…
With the same old crash in Wall Street
Sway your hips, foxtrot bimbo !
Bite her lips, skinhead weirdo !
From Berlin to Paris, till both collapse
Let’s worship Adolphe, Adolphe… Sax !
It’s brand new… And old-fashioned stuff on the gramophone
Me and you twisting on decades like rolling stones
Need a good vibe for our vintage tribe
Let’s travel in time and move on ragtime
Smile, please ! Back to the thirties…
With the same old crash in Wall Street
Drink your memories dry or on the rocks
But don’t shed tears on my silver jukebox !
You know it’s nice to travel in time,
But understand it ends like La la Land good bye
My foxtrot bimbo

Today

So you think there’s a way up
You got a masterplan
And you claim
Our peace talks are still underway
I’m not erased
Who’s the prey ? Who’s the vampire ?
We’re bogged down in a quagmire
Please, please, play me out !
Lead me astray !
Dear, we still bathe in lies we’re like pantomimes whose destinies go separate ways
We’ve reached that roundabout no need to turn around
I sense at the heart I’m your target
Today I’ve come to turn the page
There’s no third act
Today, It’s too late to care
See you in the corners of a Karpman’s triangle
See you on a vessel drawing vicious crop circles
Voodoo Captain
Voodoo Captain
Voodoo Captain
Voodoo Captain
Doing things to leave me drop dead
Today I’ve come to turn the page
There’s no third act
Today, It’s too late to care

Church Of Ska
02:55

Who am I ? A funny priest knocking on your door !
Girl, I’ve got a new gospel to praise the Lord
Just follow what I say ! You must read it everyday
And add a refrain to your goddamn prayers
Shalalala, shalalala
That’s how I found my way to the Church of Ska
Shalalala, shalalala
I found my way to the Church of Ska
Dry your tears on my cassock, kneel down on a chair !
You won’t be touched by Grace, while going up the stairs
Your path is made of black and while tiles
But redemption is long. It might take a little while!
Shalalala, shalalala
That’s how I found my way to the Church of Ska
Shalalala, shalalala
I found my way to the Church of Ska
At first there was no hope so was the beginning
Then God sent some notes that I could sing
Praise the Holy Lord’s long vocal chords
Vibrating around the dancing folks
God’s a supercop. He spun the devil like a top.
Join us ! Let him in ! You’ll see, he rocks !
Shalalala, shalalala
That’s how I found my way to the Church of Ska
Shalalala, shalalala
I found my way to the Church of Ska
At first there was no ground, no floor for a feast
Then God made a sound and I moved my feet
Shalalala, shalalala
I found my way to the Church of Ska

Jane !
I’ve got a big box , I’ve got a big surprise
I gotta get you what you like
It’s from a joke shop
You need to smile so I hope you’ll be satisfied
I’ve dried your tears since the day you broke up
Your GI Joe won’t dare to show up
Forget this tragic storyline with confettis and serpentines
I swear you’ll be mesmerized, so mesmerized among candle lights
And though I’m not romantic It’s gonna be a real party
Poor Jane
No charming prince has ever crossed your way
Poor Jane
Sobbing under fireworks display
We’ll defy gravity…….. for sure
Turn your kitchen into a… dancefloor
We’re gonna woogie woogie boogie
Drunk and silly
So please don’t grieve on New Year’s Eve !
In the box you’ll find a mirror ball
Its colours are good for your soul
I wanna be, wanna be your disco partner
The perfect guy for a Friday Night Fever
Poor Jane
Remove your glasses, be sexy for one day
Poor Jane
You’re gorgeous ! It’s the least I can say…
