The Rakes Lyrics
The Rakes - All Too Human Lyrics
The distance we have come has got me pinin'
For a touch up once familiar and excitin'
And though up yonder charts we might be climbing
To do it without you is very frightenin'
The Rakes - Retreat Lyrics
I'm walking unknown territory, where the sun's not shining
There's nothing golden about Golden Lane
The smoke is heavy in my lungs and the adverts are working
I just can't sell for who or what I am
The Rakes - Open Book Lyrics
You are not an open book
I can't do nothing 'bout that
But I'm worried, I'm overdrawn
What am I doing up at the witching hour?
The Rakes - The Guilt Lyrics
This is a true story
I just woke up, everything was fucked
From the night before, I was beyond repair
The Rakes - We Are All Animals Lyrics
We are the animals who have lost our hair
Retained some of our teeth and gained a choice
We'll chase food, money and sex until satisfied
And when its time to rest ask, "What's next?"
The Rakes - 22 Grand Job Lyrics
22 grand job
In the city, it's alright
22 grand job
In the city, it's alright
The Rakes - Strasbourg Lyrics
I'll meet you in West Germany
October 1983
I know that freedom was a lie
And your husband was a spy
The Rakes - Binary Love Lyrics
Don't you ever pretend
That we are more than friends?
Despite the metal and wires
I still have human desires
The Rakes - Something Clicked And I Fell Off The Edge Lyrics
When I was younger I felt so pure
I didn't know corruption waited for me
I tried to duck, I tried to freeze
Tried to bury my head in the sand
More The Rakes - Something Clicked And I Fell Off The Edge Lyrics
The Rakes - Violent Lyrics
I suggested at a truce, you spat out some excuse
You're violent, violent
They don't like you hanging round, you're bleeding on their ruby ground
You're violent, violent
