Rare Sex Gang Children lyrics.
Kontan's post about "Arms of Cicero" reminded me.
Ever wanted to know the lyrics to certain songs by the Sex Gang Children, but could never find them? I've found that the people at their website will just email them to you and all you have to do is ask. Here's proof.
"Beasts"
"Say! You're strong, you think that I don't belong, but you can't see the smile on my face.
Fierce young and wild and you breathe just like a bull, but you live without a soul.. animals in a human world.
Clean the steps before me one day you will remember, but for now enter your cage Queen of the Artichokes!"
"Oh Funny Man"
"Let the dynasty die it's so hard, it's hard.. let sleeping dogs lie, just in time so well out of line to insult the hand that feeds you, I am the gift that paid a thousand bribes.
Please treat them kindly oh funny little man, come and see the clown with your stick and your hat, walk like a cat with your stick and your hat ..walk like a cat, champagne for the horses sucked on by rats!
Never part of the idle class always gave them a great big kick in the arse, this funny little man who showed me alabaster.. have you ever seen a shrunken head? Shake in your bed!
No telephone calls today all my friends gone away, when you're out of fashion it's a lonely price you pay.. fat boys should be flogged with your thin white cane.
It is only the dreamers who ever move mountains, it's where my real audience waits. It's like talking to my pig about the opera days, reminisce like the mass that follows anything that moves! Orinoco, Satorico.. just like Pablo! I sat in the house with my gun on the table.. Conquistador of the useless lives in the past.. there's something missing.. oh but then how he fills me, it's all in my face. The dice is thrown for life!
No telephone calls today all my friends gone away, when you're out of fashion it's a lonely price you pay.. fat boys should be flogged with your thin white cane."
I've learned that "Oh Funny Man" is entirely about the movie "Fitzcarraldo". Obviously, it makes a lot more sense if you've seen the movie.

Their old website used to have almost all of them up in a section rather mysteriously called 'Lyrics'. Now the url just redirects me to their myspace though...
But anyway, I'm not at all surprised they'd email you the lyrics. They're one of those bands that care a good deal about their fans.
Hmmm... now debating with myself whether or not I should email them about Arms of Cicero...

On Shout and Scream (Disc II) Track eleven has some pretty nice shit on it but I could not make out the song's meaning or detailed lyrics for that matter...
Or the name. :/

Haha, funny I stumbled upon this old-as-sin thread as I'm jamming to 'em-lemme just say that I'd give an arm to find the lyrics to Andi's orgasmic "All the Diamond Girls."

I emailed Andi about one of his songs and didn't get a response for like, idk, a couple weeks. Then I just randomly got a reply, and it was more than just a quick response, and had a bit of update on his personal life and work.
