singalong! we don't want your body

Stars are one of my favourite bands ever.  So favourite I'm working on a musical based on their album The Five Ghosts.  One of the songs on The Five Ghosts is We Don't Want Your Body.  It's a funny, sad, interesting song that has been hard to place in the musical.  Their music video, however, is a piece of gold.  For some reason it's this top-secret, only available on Pitchfork thing, so I can't embed it.  But watch, and singalong with this glorious song.

 Lyrics:  "We Don't Want Your Body" - Stars

Knock shop in Oxford Street

One where the vampires meet

Silk purse, pink tie and all of that

Platforms, white teeth, a stupid hat

They really like to see you there

You make them think you really care

I've watched you take your make up off

Your face grows hard

Your eyes grow soft

The window blinds are drawn

You flash your trash to turn me on

I sigh and frown and start to cough

Your hunger starts to turn me off

Lie down and try to talk to me

Sleep now and dream of who you'll be

When you finally become someone.

You tune into my frequency

That don't mean a thing to me

Cause I don't want your body

I don't want your body

You sold me some cheap ecstasy

So you could have some sex with me

I don't want your body

I don't want your body

Face down up on the bar

I always said you'd get far

But you're not the kid you used to be

Someone should call your family

White line that time I called before

Flash bulbs which pop to keep you warm

I've watched you slowly fall away

The colour fade, from blue to grey

The window blind undrawn

You flash your trash to turn me on

Your just a tramp, you're just a trick

Our hunger starts to make us sick

Lie down and try to talk to me

Sleep now and dream of who you'll be

But will you actually be anyone?

You tune into my frequency

That don't mean a thing to me

Cause I don't want your body

I don't want your body

You sold me some cheap ecstasy

So you could have some sex with me

I don't want your body

I don't want your body

 We don't want your body
