1986 - Underworld Shakedown LP

Valley Of Death

Late night city opens its mouth 'n' I
Swallow this bitter pill of being alone
Lights fade
Faces turn white 'n'
I know what I want and I gotta get some
Down on the valley
The valley of death

I shout from the top
Nobody answers
I'm knocking all the doors nobody answers too
I stare at the sea afar I stare at the ocean
Look at the chains that fasten my heart
Down on the valley
The valley of death

Love is a shadow
Blood from the stars
Headhunters' collection
That's how I call that buzz
Down on the valley of death

Late night city
Late night warning
Late night shivers at the valley of death
You gotta keep livin
Down on the valley
An' keep your eyes open till the morning comes
Down on the valley
The valley of death

This Fire Inside

I' m locked inside
An' the place is on fire
Under my skin, it hurts my eye
Trapped in a hole but I don't mind
'Cos this fire's burning inside

Into the fire
Into the fire

Look outside
The world is on fire
In a scared city always out of time
Trapped in a hole, what's on your mind?
Burnin from this fire this fire inside

Into the fire
Into the fire

The Shade Of Fever

Storm at the river of no return - Under the shade of fever
Clock on the wall stopped at 3 a.m. - Under the shade of fever
Time crawls slowly in this lazy night - Under the shade of fever
Like a touch exposing us to strangest eyes - Under the shade of fever

You better turn away
You better run away
You better turn away
You better run away

Ten thousand people but I'm the one - Under the shade of fever
Who's fingering the light of an Asian sun - Under the shade of fever
Tumbledown dreams turn the whisper to yell - Under the shade of fever
An' the spirit of wine drives my soul to hell - Under the shade of fever

You better turn away
You better run away
You better turn away
You better run away

Storm at the river, but I'm the one - Under the shade of fever
Time crawls slowly under an Asian sun - Under the shade of fever
Tumbledown dreams at three a.m. - Under the shade of fever
Storm at the river of no return - Under the shade of fever

You better turn away
You better run away
You better turn away
You better run away

Repulsion

She's locking the backdoor
The key on the door
Beware...
The crack on the wall

I'm trying the diseases
Havin' my time
The legs of the scissors

Repulsion repulsion
She's ensuring the puzzle
Repulsion repulsion
Nobody to buzz
Nobody...

I wanna know...
I wanna know...

Stockbrokers so real
Are following the facts
Headhunters are waiting
The better for them price

There's nothing to miss

Repulsion repulsion
She's ensuring the door
Repulsion repulsion
Can't hurt you no more

She's locking the front door
The key on the floor
Alone an so lucky
Stuck on the wall

Repulsion repulsion
Repulsion repulsion
Who cares lonely mess

Repulsion repulsion
She's ensuring the puzzle
Repulsion repulsion
Nobody to buzz
