Malaria (from oil and gold)


In the dumb fat side
of the heavy, sweaty black
Malaria night
You can tell the shit
from the essence of heaven

In the smash and grab
in the sharp attack
dishonest night
You can say what you want
and somebody listen

There's laughter and glass
and perfume and flags
and kisses and trains
and roses and vaccines

Chorus
I'm living in a neon house
I'm living in avalanche road
I'm living in hangover city

Whatever gets you acclimatised
Radiation and downcast eyes
Serious sight
We're looking for a wild machine
Cybernetic rabies

Syndication and sympathy
might work for you but not for me
I love you best when it's all a mess
Will you lie for me cry for me
die for me will you please

Never never never never
never never never say no

Chorus
I'm living in a neon house
I'm living in avalanche road
I'm living in hangover city

All these unforseen things tumble down
I've got a love and it won't stop burning

In the dumb fat side
of the heavy sweaty black
Malaria night
You can say what you want
and somebody listen

Gonna say what I really want
Come on say what you really want
Gonna say what I really want
Yeah say what you really want

I wanna live with Halo Jones
I wanna home that's miles from home
I wanna drugs from the Twilight Zone
I Wanna never never never never
never never never say no

Chorus
I'm living in a neon house
I'm living in avalanche road
I'm living in hangover city

And all these unforseen things tumble down
I've got a love and it won't stop burning

Thank you because you correct this lyrics
