Speed Songtext
von Suzi Wu

Devil
Devil
Devil

Devil gave me everything and now I have nothing left
He listens to my stories and he picks out which ones best
And when I start to panic, he blocks it from my chest
Says it′s quiet mechanic, he says it's what sells best
And then it′s to my bedroom, hanging words of mine
Ugly little cobwebs take up little time

But there's no stopping growing, there's no space to bleed
Like sunflowers on speed, I′ve got somewhere to be

Faster than a choirboy′s voice
Breaking into deadly choices
Running with the right wrong boys
World is turning red rum coitus
Faster than a winter's night
Breaking into bleak midsummer
There′s no stopping growing now
Faster than a garage drummer


Elephant and castle, sorry for the lust
Smoke it to the ashes, we play among the dust
And if we're doing good, they′ll tell us that we're greedy
And if we′re doing bad, well, then we're needing feeding

But there's no stopping growing, there′s always space to breathe
Like sunflowers on speed, I′ve got somewhere to be

Faster than a choirboy's voice
Breaking into deadly choices
Running with the right wrong boys
World is turning red rum coitus
Faster than a winter′s night
Breaking into bleak midsummer
There's no stopping growing now
Faster than a garage drummer

I′ve often met the barman, I think that he's convinced
That I′m the second coming of everything he's missed
So he's so eager to tell me, I′ve got to tell him straight
I′m choking on my drinking and I leave a bitter taste
I might be a soldier, I might go back to school
I might fall out of love and lose my mind to rules
But I'll tell you when I′m older and I'm wearing my true face
How I miss those sunny days and scrambling for a place
