This song seemingly tackles the methods of deception those who manipulate others use to get victims to follow their demands, as well as diverting attention away from important issues. They'll also use it as a means to convince people to hate or kill others by pretending acts of terrorism were committed by the enemy when the acts themselves were done by the masters of control to promote discrimination and hate. It also reinforces the idea that these manipulative forces operate in various locations, infiltrating everyday life without detection, and propagate any and everywhere.
In general, it highlights the danger of hidden agendas, manipulation, and distraction, serving as a critique of those who exploit chaos and confusion to control and gain power, depicting a cautionary tale against falling into their traps. It encourages us to question the narratives presented to us and remain vigilant against manipulation in various parts of society.
Doh doh doh… Doh doh doh doh
Cruella dying in the room for,
Wants to be a spoon for…
Close my eyes, it’s then,
Elementary, once you’re loose I can’t see.
Twenty pounds of mercy come and ease the pain…
I suck - Just Suck and See,
You’re Breathless here.
When you’re this way who’re you trying to please?
Cast away your lying face
A careless breath
Into your ear
I medicate for what I wanted to hear
Hold your hands so I can see
Cos I can see your eyes and your lips
Curl and twist curl and twist
And your eyes and your hips
Curl and twist curl and twist
And your eyes and your lips
Curl and twist curl and twist
Curl and twist…
Doh Doh Doh Doh Doh Doh...
Gather round my operation,
we owed him his commission
Never’d he complain
I just suck
Suck and see
You’re breathless here…
When you’re this way who’re you trying to please?
Cast away your lying face.
Cos I can see your eyes and your lips
Curl and twist curl and twist
And your eyes and your lips
Curl and twist curl and twist
And your eyes and your hips
Curl and twist curl and twist
And Your eyes and your lips
Curl and twist, Curl and twist!
Up above one time
Trouble is I refuse to do it
Kill that dog the taste will live forever
Touched… up above, one time…
Trouble is I refuse to do it
Kill that dog the taste will live forever
Touched… up above, one time…
Trouble is I refuse to do it
Kill that dog the taste will live forever
And your eyes and your lips
Curl and twist curl and twist
And your eyes and your lips
Curl and twist curl and twist
And Your eyes (there’s a warmth in measured dark) and your lips
Curl and twist, Curl and twist (stops me feeling now the pain is caught)
And your eyes(door to door, and then again) and your lips
Curl and twist curl and twist (There’s that scene we’re missing out...)
You're as pure as pure can be
Honey such, want to touch
Touch your innocence sublime
Perfume high, world collide.
I only ever had a picture paranoid of you
I am true
and I wanted to collect them
So that I could be one too
I am true.
And I want you to embrace
Blending your, face on face
Take your time to make the strain
Fool, fool
Go slow, turn around, make less changes
(I want you too)
Go slow, turn around, make less changes
(I want you too)
Wave goodbye to Luna Park
Cheerio, time to go
Cos we grow only after dark
Sleep, sleep.
Cruella dying in the room for,
Wants to be a spoon for…
Close my eyes, it’s then,
Elementary, once you’re loose I can’t see.

this song and girls in the back are my favorite songs by them! i love this band sooo much!
refuse to do it = feel so dirty?
has anyone got the ghost track lyric? Ps.also idiot drugs and deborah carne are well accepted
I've just put the ghost track ("Luna Park") lyrics :)
the whole album is great but this song, oh my goodness this song it's so brilliant. i think the song could be about sex and or the fact it's a secret thing?
apparently finn commented in an interview that it was about one of the band's junkie friends & that they didn't want to reveal her identity. it was mostly about her struggle with drugs and overdoses and how she tried to recover but never really succeeded. And your eyes and your lips Curl and twist curl and twist ^ that part of the chorus demonstrates the agony the junkie goes through while she's under the influence, i guess.
