No. No. No. No. No. Ssssssssssh! I lock you down with liquor and love I lock you down with liquor and love Ah, black mambo with a funeral horn No, no, no, no, no, no Black mambo coming for you Ah, black mambo comes knocking with a funeral horn Black mambo, little chicken better run, run, run Don't let the children catch you Oh, don't all let the children catch you Ooooh! Yeah! Oooh! Oooh! Oooh! Ah!

Index > Madrugada Lyrics Section > The Nightly Disease > Nightly Disease Part II There is a hole in the night that the city keeps travelling round There is a hole in the roof where the ego comes down There is a hole in the closet where the coats go to fly There is a hole in the closet where noisy cats go to die Oh I step away from the window I am struck by a nightly disease Something has been coming For a long time it's been crawling Out of pitch-black and expanding seas It's clearly headed in my direction I am strong but I need protection I have a hole in my heart tonight There is a hole in my heart tonight There is a hole in my heart tonight There is a hole in my heart tonight Alright Ah, there were times when I had just one eye It took a field to fly and a bird to cry Or just a bad foot and a bad-fingered hand Just a bad foot and a bad-fingered hand Yeah That sort of memory is no match for my poisonous pen Big, bad, boy approaches the mirror With a dead black bird in his bad-fingered hand Hand extended in my direction I am strong but I need protection I have a hole in my heart tonight There is a hole in my heart tonight There is a hole in my heart tonight There is a hole in my heart tonight Alright It's headed in my direction I am strong but I need protection Just a bad foot and a bad-fingered hand Oh, just a bad foot and a bad-fingered hand Oh, just a bad foot and a bad-fingered hand Oh, just a bad foot and a bad-fingered hand Disclaimer: These are not officially endorsed lyrics, but interpretations done by Reidar A.

Index > Madrugada Lyrics Section > The Nightly Disease > Hands Up - I Love You There's no use to complain Or start it off again There's no sign of weakness in me Do I compel you like you compel me? And nothing stays the same And no one said it would I would not think of such things if I could If I could help myself If I could Oh So put your warm little hands where I can see them Put those hands on my face Tell me you love me And no one else Or close those little hands Now they're fists Now they're little fists Oh Punch a hole in me with those fists If you ever wanted to punch a hole in me And find out what's in me There's really nothing in me Oh And nothing stays the same And nothing ever happens to you that will happen to you again Or is this the way it was? Was it this same room, this same fight, this same scene? With us dancing on the kitchen floor And the wind climbing in through the open window Oh I used to hear distant cracks out in the city night I could swear someone was being shot down Oh, now we hear that all the time So do you like where we're headed? Does it make sense in your eyes? Do you miss me, baby, when I fall asleep? Do you reach out for my arm? Do you find it's too far away? Do you? Now tell me I'm handsome I will tell you we are really not old at all There's no use to complain Still you and no one else So put your warm little hands where I can see them Put those hands on my face Now if you get any out of this Then that's the thing that makes me sleep all day And I'll explain my love for you On another day Oh Disclaimer: These are not officially endorsed lyrics, but interpretations done by Reidar A.

So I finally fall behind With a dead-end mind I wasted all this time With a dead-end mind A dead-end mind A dead-end mind Hard to come up with some things with a dead-end mind What you know is no credential Oh, not at all essential Small things like your sealed body and your sealed face Oh, not at all essential Oh, not at all essential, so So I finally fall behind With a dead-end mind I wasted all this time With a dead-end mind A dead-end mind A dead-end mind Dead-end mind Disclaimer: These are not officially endorsed lyrics, but interpretations done by Reidar A.

Index > Madrugada Lyrics Section > The Nightly Disease > Sister Go to sleep, sister, go to sleep Within the deep, dry, well of my whisper, go to sleep You have been coming for a while to my different rooms You're one big Hollywood anthem to my groan Is it you, is it me, is this how you'll appear You know I never understood your cry And I guess I never tried Go to sleep Sister Go to sleep Another day will soon be rising from the ground With another distant whisper carried at the speed of sound Go to sleep Points me back to the far provinces of our past Ah, there were crying sleepless centuries But never like this And as it appears I never understood your cry And I guess I never tried Sister, are you still awake? Yes I'm still awake I've been walking in the sidewalk sun Sidewalk, sidewalk sun Go to sleep Sister Go to sleep I've been out walking in the sidewalk sun Disclaimer: These are not officially endorsed lyrics, but interpretations done by Reidar A.
