Eight Arms To Hold You

Here are the lyrics to the tracks on Veruca Salt's album Eight Arms to Hold You.



Straight

You sleep better when you're
You eat better when you're
You sing better when you're
You need me more when you're straight
Is this the weekend
Is that yaour girlfriend
She's green and innocent
You smoke her like she's incense
You smile
you smile
you smile
Stay straight for me
Stay straight for me
I'll wait till summer's over
I'll love you through october
I'll give you everything
I'll trade you anything for her
Stay straight for me
Stay straight for me


Volcano Girls

Leave me lying here cause I don't wanna go
Tell me tell me what you really want from me
You've got to let me know
I'm falling off and I need you terribly
One down and one to go
Volcanoi girls we really can't be beat
Warm us up and watch us blow
But now and then we fail and we admit defeat
We're falling off and were watered down and fully grown
Leave me lying here cause I don't wanna go
A million miles of running and I hit the wall
I bounce back and I run some more
But this is it I'm giving up i'm calling quits
So get down and meet me on the floor
Way to go way to flip off everyone
I steal your thunder and I try to bolt
But I could stand a little pity now and then
I'm falling off I am watered down and fully grown
I told you bout the seether before
You the one that's neither or nor
Well here's another clue if you please
The seether's Louise
Leave me lying here cause I don't wanna go


Don't Make Me Prove It

Zero one two three four days without you
Eight nine now we're five times two
Words won't do words won't do it they can't stay true
Words won't get me through it
Honey please seize me I know what I need
Plan b some security
Words won't do words won't do it they can't stay true
Words won't get me through it
Don't make me prove it
In the heat of the waiting
When I am starting to stall
I can see what you're saying
But I don't hear you at all
Words won't do words won't do it they can't stay true
Words won't get me through it
Don't make me prove it


Awesome

Goodbye twenty-five you were a good year for the girls
Goodbye twenty-five you'll be the goldfinch I'm the harpies
There's something in unity
Forget humility
What's coming over me is awesome
God forgive me I know it's so awesome
Heaven help me it's a fine place to be
Goodbye indolence your filthy left hand kept me down
Goodbye cowardice you'll be the Tigris I'm Euphrates
There's something in unity
What's coming over me
Go fuck humility
We're awesome
All the salts go
I know it's so awesome
Everybody
I know it's a fine place to be


One Last Time

I wind you up
Then I wait here for the melancholy
I give you up while you sit here in all your glory
I never thought you would
I never knew you could
But now you're gone
And I don't think I care
I sold your love down the river for a bow and arrow
Euphoria has just been here and she's looking terrible
I've never sunk this low
It's better if you go
When you're nearby I see you and want you to try
To love me like a monster
One last time
Control me like a father
One last time
Stay with me till I'm stronger
One last time
Stay with me till I'm stronger
One last round
To kick me when I'm down
Don't kick me when I'm down
I never thought you would
I never understood
And that's why
I'm weak and I want you to try
To make me an example
One last time
To drag me through the cycle
One last time
To make me a disciple
One last round will get me to the ground
You'll get me on the ground
I'll see you around
Yeah I'll see you around
One last town
And I'll see you around


With David Bowie

Will it ever come like it did for you
I kind of heard you singing and I never knew
No I never knew
My heart skips around when I hear the sound
I'm nefer alone cause you're following me home
I'm falling in love my walkman and me with David Bowie
With teenage medication flowing through my veins
I can face the strain
It's causing a sensation that I can explain
Yeah I can explain
My heart skips around when I hear the sound
I'm never alone cause you're following me home I'm falling in love my walkman and me with David Bowie
You want me to sing
I can I can
You want me to play
I can I can
You want to be in a band
I can
I'll never be anything more than I was today
Will it ever come like it did for you
I kind of heard you singing and I never knew
No I never knew
My heart skips around when I hear the sound
I'm never alone cause you're following me home
I'm falling in love my best friend and me with David Bowie
Him and me in a tree I-N-G
