Garbage - Song Lyrics

"Supervixen"

Come down to my house
Stick a stone in your mouth
You can always pull out
If you like it too much

Make a whole new religion
A falling star that you cannot live without
And I惻l feed your obsession
There惻l be nothing but this thing that you惻l never doubt

A hit is hard to resist
And I never miss
I can take you out
With just a flick of my wrist

Make a whole new religion
A falling star that you cannot live without
And I惻l feed your obsession
There is nothing but this thing that you惻l never doubt
This thing you惻l never doubt

And I惻l feed your obsession
The falling star that you cannot live without
I will be your religion
This thing you惻l never doubt
You愉e not the only one
You愉e not the only one

[Background:]
Now I want it too much
Now I want it to stop
Now I惴 lucky like a falling star that fell over me

Bow down to me, bow down to me
Bow down to me, bow down to me
Bow down to me, bow down to me
Bow down to me.
 
"Queer"

Hey boy, take a look at me
Let me dirty up your mind
I?ll strip away your hard veneer
And see what I can find

The queerest of the queer
The strangest of the strange
The coldest of the cool
The lamest of the lame
The numbest of the dumb
I hate to see you here
You choke behind a smile
A fake behind the fear
The queerest of the queer

This is what he pays me for
I?ll show you how it?s done
You learn to love the pain you feel
Like father like son

The queerest of the queer
Hide inside your head
The blindest of the blind
The deadest of the dead
You?re hungry cause you starve
While holding back the tears
Choking on your smile
A fake behind the fear
The queerest of the queer

I know what?s good for you (You can touch me if you want)
I know you?re dying to (You can touch me if you want)
I know what?s good for you (You can touch me if you want)
But you can?t stop

The queerest of the queer
The strangest of the strange
The coldest of the cool
The lamest of the lame
The numbest of the dumb
I hate to see you here
You choke behind a smile
A fake behind the fear
The queerest of the queer
The strangest of the strange
The coldest of the cool
You?re nothing special here
A fake behind the fear
The queerest of the queer

I know what?s good for you
I know you?re dying to
I know what?s good for you
I bet you?re dying to
You can touch me if you want
You can touch me if you want
You can touch me
You can touch me
But you can?t stop.
 
"Only happy when it rains"

I?m only happy when it rains
I?m only happy when it?s complicated
And though I know you can?t appreciate it
I?m only happy when it rains

You know I love it when the news is bad
And why it feels so good to feel so sad
I?m only happy when it rains

Pour your misery down, pour your misery down on me
Pour your misery down, pour your misery down on me

I?m only happy when it rains
I feel good when things are going wrong
I only listen to the sad, sad songs
I?m only happy when it rains

I only smile in the dark
My only comfort is the night gone black
I didn?t accidentally tell you that
I?m only happy when it rains

You?ll get the message by the time I?m through
When I complain about me and you
I?m only happy when it rains

Pour your misery down (Pour your misery down)
Pour your misery down on me (Pour your misery down)
Pour your misery down (Pour your misery down)
Pour your misery down on me (Pour your misery down)
Pour your misery down (Pour your misery down)
Pour your misery down on me (Pour your misery down)
Pour your misery down

You can keep me company
As long as you don?t care

I?m only happy when it rains
You wanna hear about my new obsession?
I?m riding high upon a deep depression
I?m only happy when it rains (Pour some misery down on me)

I?m only happy when it rains (Pour some misery down on me)
I?m only happy when it rains (Pour some misery down on me)
I?m only happy when it rains (Pour some misery down on me)
I?m only happy when it rains (Pour some misery down on me).
 
"A stroke of luck"

Hanging by threads of palest silver
I could have stayed that way forever
Bad blood and ghosts wrapped tight around me
Nothing could ever seem to touch me

I lose what I love most
Did you know I was lost until you found me?

A stroke of luck or a gift from God?
The hand of fate or devil?s claws?
From below or saints above?
You came to me

Here comes the cold again
I feel it closing in
It?s falling down and
All around me falling

You say that you?ll be there to catch me
Or will you only try to trap me
These are the rules I make
Our chains were meant to break
You?ll never change me

Here comes the cold again
I feel it closing in
You?re falling down and
All around me falling

Stroke of luck or a gift from God?
Hand of fate or devil?s claws?
From below or saints above?
You come to me now

Don?t ask me why
Don?t even try

A stroke of luck or a gift from God?
The hand of fate or devil?s claws?
From below or saints above?
You came to me

Here comes the cold again
I feel it closing in
It?s falling down and
All around me falling

Falling, falling
Falling, falling
Falling, falling.

"Vow"

I can?t use what I can?t abuse
And I can?t stop when it comes to you

You burned me out but I?m back at your door
Like Joan of Arc coming back for more

I nearly died
I nearly died
I nearly died

I came to cut you up
I came to knock you down
I came around to tear your little world apart
I cam to shut you up
I came to drag you down
I came around to tear your little world apart
And break your soul apart

You burn and burn to get under my skin
You?ve gone too far now I won?t give in
You crucified me but I?m back in your bed
Like Jesus Christ coming from the dead

I nearly died
I nearly died
I nearly died

I came to knock you up
I came to cut you down
I came around to tear your little world apart
I came to rip you up
I came to shut you down
I came around to tear your little world apart
And break your soul apart

I nearly died
I nearly died
I nearly died

I came to cut you up
I came to knock you down
I came around to tear your little world apart
I came to shut you up
I came to suck you down
I came around to tear your little world apart
Tear your little world apart
Tear your little world apart
And break your soul apart

I can?t stop when it comes to you
I can?t stop when it comes to you
When it comes to you
When it comes to you.

"Stupid girl"

You pretend you愉e high
You pretend you愉e bored
You pretend you愉e anything
Just to be adored
And what you need
Is what you get

Don愒 believe in fear
Don愒 believe in faith
Don愒 believe in anything
That you can愒 break

You stupid girl
You stupid girl
All you had you wasted
All you had you wasted

What drives you on (What drives you on)
Can drive you mad (Can drive you mad)
A million lies to sell yourself
Is all you ever had

Don愒 believe in love
Don愒 believe in hate
Don愒 believe in anything
That you can愒 waste

You stupid girl
You stupid girl
Can愒 believe you fake it
Can愒 believe you fake it

Don愒 believe in fear
Don愒 believe in pain
Don愒 believe in anyone
That you can愒 tame

You stupid girl
You stupid girl
All you had you wasted
All you had you wasted

You stupid girl
You stupid girl
Can愒 believe you fake it
Can愒 believe you fake it

You stupid girl
You stupid girl
Can愒 believe you fake it
Can愒 believe you fake it

You stupid girl.

"Dog new tricks"

I wish I had not woke up today
Everyone mistakes the things you say
Take the simple truth and
Twist it all around
Make it sound important
Make it seem profound

Dog new tricks
Nothing you learn will stick
Dog new tricks
You make me feel so worthless

Everyone I know has gone away
Died or left or just forgot to stay
Sometimes took for granted
Sometimes turned away
Sometimes didn?t say what
I meant to say

Dog new tricks
Nothing you learn will stick
Dog new tricks
You make me feel so worthless

Nothing you learn
Nothing you learn
Nothing you learn
Nothing you learn

I never would have pegged you
For what you have become
Everyone lies
Everyone cheats
Not like you?ve done

Dog new tricks
Nothing you learn will stick
Dog new tricks
You make me feel so worthless

Dog new tricks
Nothing you learn will stick
Dog new tricks
You make me feel so worthless

Nothing you learn
Nothing you learn
Nothing you learn
Nothing you learn.

"My lover愀 box"

My lover愀 charms
Are in a box
Beneath my bed
And piece by piece
I惻l cherish them
Until the end

Send me an angel to love
I need to feel a little piece of heaven
Send me an angel to love
I惴 afraid I惻l never get to heaven

They burn my hand
Scar my face
And blind my eyes
I惻l steal your breath
And throw away
What I despise

Send me an angel to love
I need to feel a little piece of heaven
Send me an angel to love
I惴 afraid I惻l never get to heaven

Between these walls
And darkened halls
I扉e done my time
If I should die
Before I wake
Then you惻l know why

Send me an angel to love
I need to feel a little piece of heaven
Send me an angel to love
I惴 afraid I惻l never get to heaven (Piece by piece)

Send me an angel to love (Piece by piece)
I need to feel a little piece of heaven (Piece by piece)
Send me an angel to love (Piece by piece)
I惴 afraid I惻l never get to heaven (Piece by piece)

Piece by piece
Piece by piece
Piece by piece (Send me an angel)
Piece by piece (Send me an angel)
Piece by piece (Send me an angel)
Piece by piece (Send me an angel).
