I wish I could sing
like vampires suck blood
under the moon and the stars
and the heavens above
Forgive me, oh Lord
for this vain pursuit
Welcome to Diametro's Electronic Cabaret
Introducing Mssr. Maurice Jaumbeck ...
He'd be here tonight
but he died in a wreck
When the cops pulled him out
He's wearing no clothes
'Cause running around
Anything goes ...

There's ... no way of knowing
which direction we are
really, really going
Is the river flowing?
And we cry ...
"We must die"
and again, it's a friend
you can fake
but in the end
you will die another day
Waiting for the death and light show?
Head right for ...
Diametro's Electronic Cabaret is ...

F is for Freezing
and F is for Frigid
and F is the Feeling
Your liFe is just beginning
But do you wonder,
why it always has to hurt
But just remember ...
all sun makes a desert ...
And so you fly
into the sun
with great results ...
Wether you're a Diamond Dog
or Cleopatra's Lovely Clogs
I know you're going down ...
Unto the place where the stereo
plays Adam Ant and Bowie's Toes
I know you're going down ...
And nobody
is making a sound
Until they come to Cabaret
A delux entertainment way
Come to Cabaret ...
Come and see the price they pay today
At the Cabaret!
The Freedom Whores, they always know the score
And they will tell you it's down
it's going down, down, down
And whether you're an animal
Tim McGraw
more evolved
I know you're going down
And nobody is still making the sound
Until they come to the Cabaret
Where party members misbehave
Come to the Cabaret
A proletarian sex buffet
And everything will be OK
every night, every day
Come to the Cabaret!
Diametro's Cabaret!
I love you badly
I need you madly
I'll take you to the coast for an impromptu get away
You say you're leaving,
I'm not believing
I'll take you for a ride on a crazy train to die
And I'd kill you with kindness ...
On an Egyptian holiday ...

I had a dream last night about Barack Obama
He was wearing a tight white sweater
and said ... what the world needs now
is a NuPOPSong
and I know it'll make you feel better ...
'Cause when the world starts coughing up blood
it's out of control
And when the polar bears have nowhere to go
it's out of control
We took a train
to the country
we got real bored
so we took some drugs
and magic appeared
and conversations multiplied
but then you denied that I replied to the Ayatollah's threat in kind
and he conferred with the Pope and said,
"What the fuck are we gonna do to keep the people in line?"
"We'll seal it in a cosmic letter ... "
That reads ...
What the world needs now is a NuPOPSong
and I know it'll make you feel better ...
'Cause when the world starts coughing up blood
it's out of control
And when the polar bears have nowhere to go
it's out of control

Friends are a death wish
Betrayal on a hot dish ...
I sing a hymn
I sing it lightly ...
I paint a sky
but none too brightly ...
I say your name and again yes I do
It's everlasting
I'm coming home ...
It's never happening
Ode to a Vampire ...
And there's no vice
that I am lacking
and there's no sin
that I'm not backing
and I can see right through your facade
it's ever cracking
So tell me "What is Sin?"
When no one's laughing ...
Ode to a Vampire
Ode to Myself ...
And I have dream ...
That I am flying
above the world
I see is dying ...
And I can see that the end of technology is oh-so required
'Cause when the sin is Man
It's death by fire
Just ask Joan of Arc ...
Friends are a death wish
Beware of that dark gift
And friends are amazing
at love and betraying
I sing a hymn ...

Another Vampire Song

I pray for mass migrations
and pray for mass assassinations
in the corner of my mind
I know that heaven wept for
me -- not my interceptor
Satan
is a close friend of some time ...
It's something else to see
you know, it's something else to be
talking 'bout a world so wild
a world so tired
and -- if you come to find
you know, you'd like to change your side
you know that's fine with me
this fantasy
is death
I feel it coming 'round again
like a friend you can't escape
'cause you know it's much too late
And in the courtyard of your mind
what do you find?
and do you mind that every time
you step outside
they stop and stare
but you don't care
still, it's not fair
and they do it everywhere
Feel the surge
as your mind
starts to purge
everything that's right and what is wrong
I'll help you write the words to this new
Vampire Song, Another
Ooh ... It's sublime
When the time fits the crime
and there's no regret
no more shame
a life devoid of pain
inside a ...
Vampire Song, Another

Schadenfreude
Schadenfreude
It's the pleasure of seeing ...
Take a dive,
burned alive!
Better you than me ...
Smashing and crashing and crushing your balls
Crushing your balls forever ...
Schadenfreude
Schadenfreude
Better you than me ...
