Lyrics

Here are some of Meg Lee Chin's lyrics.

And God She Created Civilization aka Apeman

She was a real fine specimen of humanity,
she had all the bits and pieces where God meant them to be
And every lash was a lover cooing so gently,
while the fishes in the ocean swam gracefully

Eat your heart out, eat your heart out. Chew 'em up, spit 'em out

She cast her eyes and clenched her face,
to a great big sea of jocks and apes
Small town bullies, posers and fakes,
two bit hustlers junkies and snakes
They liked to slobber, dribble and drool,
suckin' on their lagers, eyein' up the jewels
Huffin' and a puffin' and a chokin' on the fuel.
Big Bustin' Broncos, with big, bustin' tools!
She walked right in, lighting up the joint..
Struttin' that mean stuff, stressing every point
And their faces turned white as she settled in with ease.
Complete brain malfunctions homosapiens disease
As tongues untied, they bumbled over grunts,
infantile slobbers, adolescent stunts
Eager for the kill, but clueless to the hunt.
Slaves tot he stereotype and puppets to the front

Hold your fire, cool your jets, swallow your pride, disengage
You apes aint gonna make it just swinging in the trees
You better learn to walk upright before she brings you to your knees

Yeah the battle raged on, pheromones and gist,
evolutionary wishes, jism and drips
Test tube babies, chemical that mix,
too lethal to explode, but seething to hiss.
Now it's time to unleash this metabolic overload,
the symphonies of planets, microcosmic superbowl
When push comes to shove, Mother Nature takes her toll
Survival of the species, container for ythe soul
She looked real hard and cracked a grin.
"I feel a little adrenaline"
I could use a little bit of discipline.
Who's come to play, let the party begin!"
They shrunk back soft, they shriveled and creaked,
faces turning cherry, knees going weak.
Blusterin' and a flusterin', unable to speak.
Willing lambs to the slaughter, gone all quiet and meek.

Hold your fire, cool your jets, swallow your pride, disengage
You apes aint gonna make it just swinging in the trees
You better learn to walk upright before she brings you to your knees

And God, she created civilization
(And it didn't take long, to whip these apes into shape.)

Bittersweet and Sour

I wandered hard into the street
A million miles upon my feet
And what I saw was bittersweet and sour.
Something around here's gotta give
This city ain't no place to live
When every face I see is sweet and sour
Bittersweet
goin' sour
Bittersweet
goin' sour
You laugh, you laugh, just laugh at the scenery
Pull yourself from the water
Drink to the drop of your youth that was lost
You know history's always repeating itself
In the arms of another
By the drone of a moan overgrown and unknown
By the drone of a moan overgrown and unknown
(scat singing)
Fool yourself there's no other
Always the same when you can't play the game
You'll be hurting again when you get to the end
In the world of another
By the drone of a moan overgrown and unknown
By the drone of a moan overgrown and unknown

Bottle

Now there's only time to drink your last bottle And take the last train home
Time is in your face, put your cigarette out forever
I (staring at the walls) Cant wait (for the bomb to fall)
Or stand (the room is getting small)
To see what's coming Here (now it's curtain call)
Right now (crawling down the hall) And now (I can't stand it all)
The room is spinning round Yeah
Now in a dream you can sing to yourself cuz no one else is around
Long forgotten hours, say your goodnights to everyone And then you can return to suburbia
I(thought I had it made) Cant stand(but it's been delayed)
Or face (I'm not getting laid This part I'm playing
So (I'll pretend I'm brave) I'll sing (like I'm not depraved)My song (promise to behave)
But no one hears what I'm saying, now Yeah
Now all alone, you can laugh with yourself cuz everbody's up and gone
Time is your best friend
Peel yourself up off the floor And then you can return to never never land
I wish I had a friend Can't wait (for the world to end)Or stand
(being here again) to see what coming
Here (gonna talk to God)Right now (maybe get a job)
And now (but I'm still a slob)The walls come tumbling down
Yeah Down yeah, Down yeah Down Yeah

Heavy Scene

Can I run , run , run from a jester with a gun
Jokes are stupid in the light of never knowing where to run, Heavy Scenes
When I try to smile instead I get bullets in my head
Drop the bottle , close your eyes and hit the throttle vocalize this heavy scene yeah,
Every night I close my eyes trying not to dramatize,
but I'm nervous in my head cuz I don't wanna end up dead, Heavy scenes
Yeah there's beauty in the deep, still my life is incomplete,
Don't wanna be no piece of meat cuz I don't look good in concrete,
Heavy scenes yeah, And I say "Oh no what you doing?"
Try to run from a bully with a gun well it ain't no fun when your time has overrun
Oh no what you saying? Egomaniac you're crawling on my back, need a new plan of attack to escape this cul de sac

I can only watch, I cannot play, I can' hardly talk cuz there's nothing to say, so I 'll run
from heavy scenes yeah, Oh no, heavy scenes yeah, oh no

Tattooed Princes make a fistful of fun,
like latex love birdies a cookin' in the sun
and the half baked mommies with their babies on the beat,
turn ice cube cool, when the candy hits the street
Mirror-eyed shades stalk the planet whisper riddles
jealous one eyed lovers like to fidget while you fiddle,
then a wall of crumpled nothing tumbles down till you surrender
to the cost of making lovers out of princes and pretenders
Man made machinery evolves and takes the stage
from a cast of bittered thousands, gilded, rusted golden cage,
silver spoonz that lick their bottomz open up the bird's eye view
to those short weekend encounters with your paperback guru
Oh no what you doing, try to run from a bully with a gun
well it ain't no fun when your time has overrun
Oh no what you saying? Egomaniac you're crawling on my back,
need a new plan of attack to escape this cul de sac of heavy scenes

Dreaming, dreaming

heavy, heavy scene yeah heavy, heavy scene yeah heavy, heavy scene yeah heavy,
heavy scene yeah Egomaniac you're crawling on my back, need a new plan of attack....

London

So Long Sweetness...
Now, Now the curtain falls without a trace left to hold
There's only time, Time to sleep, to be, to be alone
To break the spell In the heart of nights of lack of sleep to sustain yourself
To end all sighs
Tearing hard from a transatlantic grip
From below, London, Far below, Faces are crying out.

Feel, now you know it's the season of the witch
It doesn't twitch
The kinda wound that might of fooled the deepest ditch
You know it goes like this
Alarming, disarming not a face to bear
At a certain pitch
Tables turning faster harder Noise keeps pumping louder louder
It'll drip below London
More and more, mothers are crying hard.

So Long Sweetness...

Take what you've chosen, look at what you've chosed

Nutopia

Jesus said " Lay down your arms, Jesus said "Children come home"

I saw the best minds of my generation running on empty,
Superglued to the T.V.,
Dreaming of prosperity, Talking incessantly, Saying nothing
Sleeping on platforms at train stations, Sipping chemical cocktails,
Alive to the Universe, Dead to the World.
Hallucinating delusions of media reality in Camden Town, Desperate in the pursuit of cool
He's in a suit, she's in a straight jacket, 7-11 nightmares at 3am and the moon is quiet and holy.

Watch all the bridges collide, Well I think we might have to lay low, for a while

I saw the best minds of my generation caught up in the virtual reality of living
Memorizing pin numbers and secret codes,
Swaying robotically to non-existant rhythms,
Flashing memberships to clubs so exclusive nobody belongs,
Jesus said " Lay down your arms" Jesus said "Children come home"

Scared shitless, witless, clueless, useless, tightlipped, tightfisted,tightassed, half-assed
Sniveling, groveling, moaning, groaning
Sniveling, groveling, moaning, groaning
sniveling, groveling, sniveling, groveling

The city's all wrapped up in plastic like an electronic cocoon.
If you lay in the street you can hear it humming,
Building up slowly from underground
If you close your eyes you can observe the blueprint
The man-made dna that spirals breathlessly out of control,
As synapses collapse, bridges snap, into a restless utopia, Nutopia
Now the rain has arrived and I think we might have to lay low
Watch all the bridges collide and I think we might have to lay low.

Paris

Paris wasn't nothing like I expected it to be
No fairy tales, no romance, hey nothing happened for me
Well I must've been out of tune or on the wrong frequency,
Because Paris ain't half what it's cracked up to be

Being young wasn't nothing like expected it to be
I was always the life of the party
Oh what a sweet irony!
Trying every trick for a treat
I was like a prick to a tease
Yeah being young wasn't nothing
Like I expected it to be

Love wasn't nothing like I expected it to be
He wasn't too good to be true, he was just pretendng to be
But what I really wanted all along, was a spitting image of me
My love you really aint nothing like I expected you to be

Getting old wasn't nothing like I expected it to be
I'm just a psychedelic relic, from the wrong century
Living like a staint among the sinners or a prophet in the streets
But I never made it to the top like it was expected of me!

My life ain't nothing like I expected it to be
It wasn't the be all and end all...what they said it would be
There'll be the devil to pay for this shit comedy.
Because my life aint nothing like I expected...

Now I know what is expected of me.
But I'm like a ship with no sail, sailing in a sea with no breeze
Sinking into waves of temptation
No relief from belief
But I aint' gonna lick no ones ass cuz it's expected of me

I'm no slave to animosity
But I'm like a smoke with no gun
Letting off a fire with no heat
I'm inventing games with no rules
Conjured out of hiphopcrisy
Because my life wasn't nothing
Like I expected it to be...

Scent

Climb up on my thighs, I'm gonna show you the ropes
Do you feel like hanging?
Crawl under my skin, come down where the rivers flow
If you feel like drowning...
I'll show you no mercy, I'll show you what you need

Lick your lips for nourishment
Wear the smile and fear the scent of me

Slip into my cave, slip into sweet perfume
I can still hear you breathing
Slide into my room, die to the trembling tune
While your heart's still beating
Show you no mercy
I'm gonna watch you bleed

Lick your lips for nourishment
Wear the smile and fear the scent of me

George Bush: Where do you think you're going Tony?
Tony Blair: Who...who me?
George Bush: Don't be scared Tony...
Tony Blair: No I'm not doing that again, because you never let me do what I want.
George Bush: Get over here Tony!
Tony Blair: Where's my mates gone???!!! Ooohhh Georgie, George...
George Bush: Shut your mouth!

Lick you lips for nourishment
Drop the mask and scentiment
Prime yourself for punishiment
You will be obedient
Choke the bone and fear the scent
Of me.

Swallowing You

She's Leaving
She's moving faster than a comet can fly away
And wondering, where the hell am I going to land?
The motion... the streets are crackling with a fire tonight
Slow motion... the neon screaming on an endless night

And maybe you, you're in the middle
And maybe
You're in between
And maybe
You feel the pressure
Silencing you

You fake it
You want it swiftly so the sun may rise again
But it'll break you
A thousand pieces of a broken dream

The roaring
The ferris wheel is breathing life tonight
Forewarning
The carousel is spinning higher tonight

And maybe you, you're in the middle
You're in between
And maybe
You feel the pressure
silencing you

Murmur, murmer, murmur (I watched the sun come up over the tower blocks and cried for what could have been, is it real or is it...just an illusion?)

And maybe, you're in the middle
You're in between
And maybe
You feel the moment
swallowing you

And maybe, you're in the middle
You're in between
And maybe
You feel the pressure
swallowing you

Sweat

Is it weakness or is it love?
Or just amusmenet when you're bored?
You've forgotten what I look like
But I won't be ignored
Heaven knows I couldn't stand it
When I first saw Your face
Better finish what you started
Cuz there's no way out

Can you feel the burning feel the twisting and the turning
Can you feel your stomach churning gonna get you without warning
While you sweat it out, sweat it out
Throat is getting tighter, While your face is getting whiter
While your mouth is getting drier Can't escape it Can't deny it
And there is no way out
Heaven knows i could forgive ya but I won't not, not today
Bow your head down, say a prayer
Cuz it's time to sweat it out

Is it heaven? Or is it hell? Or is this what you call a life?
You always think your so very clever,
Razor sharp just like a knife
Heaven knows I could destroy ya
But I wont not, straight away
Gonna hang out, watch you suffer
Gonna watch you sweat it out

Can you feel the fire now the flames are licking higher
Gonna stretch you like a wire gonna touch you gonna burn you
While you sweat it out, sweat it out
Music's pumping harder and the air is getting thinner
While the rhythm's getting louder and the light is getting dimmer
And there is no way out

Heaven know's it's not the first time
But it's the last time you'll laugh
Bow your head down say a prayer
Cuz it's time to sweat
Heaven knows it's not the first time
Gonna watch you sweat

You'll be the loser for the first time
You won't be the loser for the last time

Venus

Walking...just taking my time
I won't make believe, I'm not losin' my mind#
Dreaming of how it could be
I can't make no sense of what's happening to me

The red door's closing in
But the girl refuse to smile
Oh Venus, why do you cry?

Thinking...those old times hurt so bad
Venus in brown sheets
She's looking so hard

The red door's closing in
And her eyes are filled with pain
Oh Venus, why you looking so strange

"Somebody's talking to me but the words just slip away
So I breathe deep falling asleep in a strange and quiet way
and I fall down crying on my knees I'm laughing
Tears that clear my eyes"

Help us, be who we must be
Venus in brown sheets
is crying out

And the clouds are opening, but the sun is burning low
Oh Venus,

refusing to go..
refusing to go...
refusing to go...
