I never much liked plain clothes Always had a taste for the fine I stumbled in to the women's section Oh I'd never looked so divine I rushed home in my flat shoes Put on some Bowie and some Reed I locked the door and drew the curtains Didn't think I bring myself to go outside But all the freaks come out at midnight And I don’t wanna be left out I'm a midnight transvestite But don't worry honey I won't bite Velvet silk and furs Feels so good it hurts Guys don't got so much choice Embrace you're inner woman and rejoice! Oh I know they tell you it’s not right You're just a freak undercover of the midnight But you put them out of your mind cos you Don't wanna get left behind I'm a midnight transvestite But don't worry honey I won't bite Pretty colours in my hair I'm the definition of debonair Lipstick and nails to match They'll tell my girlfriend that I'm quite the catch They'll tell my girlfriend that I no longer care They'll tell my girlfriend I don’t care if people stare They'll tell my girlfriend I got nice things to wear Don't tell my girlfriend cos I don't wanna share I'm a midnight transvestite But don't worry honey I won't bite

Daddy Issues 03:56
Yeah I got daddy issues But don't waste your psychology on me Dig deeper and you'll find I'm all twisted inside Yeah I got daddy issues Yeah I've a tortured soul But don't cry for me no don't cry at all Be real with me I don't want your sympathy Cos I've made it this far on my own Can you see the pain in my eyes? Can you see it through my constant smile? It's a miracle it's been said I manage to get myself outta bed Can you see the pain in my eyes? Can you feel the ice in my heart? It was frozen back when daddy’s went dark How could I not be cold inside If my daddy died when I was nine Oh can you feel the ice in my heart? Yeah I love my life I love the world I live in and the people at my side so tell me Why you wanna get me down? Your magic powers of deduction must really make you proud and so what If what you say is true How does that help me at all pointing out what I already knew I think you Yeah I think you need an excuse for why I've got the drive to be good at what I do Yeah I got daddy issues But don't waste your psychology on me Take a look inside yourself Maybe you're the one who needs some help Yeah I think you’ve got issues

He's got a cocky grin on his face Makes me wanna spray him in the eyes with mace He's got the perfect cheekbones I wanna crush them like they're ice cream cones I don't like him Oh he's so sure of himself I wanna beat him with a book on self help He's got a spring in his step I wanna break both his legs I don't like him Oh his hair falls into place like the last piece in a puzzle I always wanna lean right in and give it a nuzzle But I just smash my head against a hard surface which breaks And he finally wipes that stupid fucking grin off his face I don't like him He's got such a sweet soft voice Sounds like he just got sucked for the very first time C'mon I don't like him

I got a secret with God As long as I do what the nice priest says And don't tell my mamma about the head Then I got a secret with God I don't wanna go to hell I wanna go to heaven instead So me and the lord can break bread As long as I keep my choir mouth shut And I don't use my teeth when I suck then I ain't gotta go to hell

about

The Graves Berlin, Germany

Emerging from the wicked underbelly of Berlin’s rock & roll scene, with a name that marks the death of all the placid performers come before, The Graves are set to liberate the people of their cautious temperament in favour of a more volatile, feverous and darkly indulging one. ... more
