Who Has Nine? Lyrics by Wire

Coatings

1997

Shocked, hooked by burial, sedated ethics
Work some ethics, champagne to inject
Mascara ha-ha's make up memorials
Retouched pictorials, it's a cover-up job

View of the park
Up in lights
Scared of the dark

Wig-wearers' clinic, sold out and stalling
The face-lift is falling as the curtain comes down
Has-been revivals with co-star attractions
Knee-jerk reactions, the bouquet is taken

View of the park
Up in time
Safe in the dark

The sleeping partners were just like brothers
Differеnt mothers without a father in sight
Sing song torture, prеview distress
Subhuman empress, dead sea calm

Up and tied
Blow on a spark
Up and tied
Who's scared of the dark

Shocked, hooked by burial, sedated ethics
Work some ethics, champagne to inject
Mascara ha-ha's make up memorials
Retouched pictorials, it's a cover-up job

Up and tied
Blow on a spark
Up and tied
Who's scared of the dark

Wig-wearers' clinic, sold out and stalling
The face-lift is falling as the curtain comes down
The has-been revivals with co-star attractions
Knee-jerk reactions, the bouquet is accepted

Up in lights
View of the park
Up in lights
Afraid of the dark
