(This Isn’t) Your First Rodeo You know that you could have had anyone / You were a church not made with hands / You were born to be a legend / Everybody bows to your command / I’ve played the part of mute ventriloquist / Like a fool who didn’t read the fine print / You - everybody’s favourite little nihilist / Your kiss like a urinal mint / You´re making grown men weep / I’ve defiled you a thousand times in my sleep / I try to learn from my mistakes / You keep pouring water on a drowning man / Get up! / Heads have got to rock and roll / Night woman you gotta let me go / Get down! / And stop acting so surprised / This isn't your first rodeo / Well you keep banging your drum / And you never miss a beat / Can't hide the crushing disappointment / When revenge doesn't taste so sweet /
2.
Watchman’s Requiem As soon as the night falls / Put out the fire / Keep on watching / From the hideout / Don't lose sight / Keep awake / Raise alarm if something fails / No return / Oh, sands of time / Is this the moment to leave them behind / Heart is racing / Time closes in / Sand’s running out / Facing the end of the line / Time closes in / Sand’s running out /As you know it / Twilight in the valley / Gunshots rapid flashing / Voices they are wailing / As hooves are wildly trampling / Don't lose sight / Keep awake / Come to fight if something fails / No return / Oh sands of time / Moment has come to leave them behind / Heart is racing / Time closes in / Sand’s running out / Facing the end of the line / Time closes in / Sand’s running out / As you know it / Attacking the pack / Caught off guard by a stab in the back / Without a warning or a sign / There is only one thing left to do / Reach for your guns / Now it is draw or die / You fire your arms / Shoot then get shot / Drop to the ground / Thundering hooves / Blood on the ground / Wetting the sand /

To The Limit 04:24
To The Limit Fire it up get my pistons pumping / Been waiting so long / So longing for refueling / Whatever you want me to / Whatever you need me to / Let me do good by you / Pushing it up to the limit / We’ll go all night long / Let’s settle the score / Breaking it past once you hit it /We’ll go all night long / Gaining more and more / Rough and rusty / Time to join forces / Come feel the heat / And the perils of the torches / Whatever you want me to / Whatever you need me to / You know what to gotta do / Let it twist your skin / Never quit or give in / Just take the pain / You know what they don’t realize at all/ You’re gaining more / Pushing it up/ Bringing in up /
4.
Love Is A Heart Disease I threw away my medication / Chocolate, wine, black celebration / The miracle man took me for a ride / I need help / I need looking after / Voodoo drums and nervous laughter / It's like a doc prescribing suicide / At least I’m singing while I’m crying / C'mon girl / Resuscitate me / Love is a heart disease / Gimme surgery / You've split my chest open / Love is a heart disease! / Mouth to mouth / I’m losing hope now / Whip me with your stethoscope / The medicine is sadly wearing off/ At least I’m singing while I’m dying / The first step of the cure is / A kiss /
5.
Ready For The Quake The cannons are all loaded and a shooter is on the loose / Don't worry ‘bout that darling you just kick off your shoes / There's a time for you to whine for you to cry for you to lock yourself away / Not tonight no we don’t need it that way / The stage is set for glory and you're in for heavy rain / It will leave you out of order / As I crawl into your brain / Get ready for the quake / That intense convulsion will make you shiver and shake / Get ready for the quake / Again and again and again / You have a lot on your mind / You've been a lot on my mind too / But now that I've got you just where I want you / You rock and then you roll and then it overrides you / Get ready for the quake / This volcanic eruption will make you shiver and shake / Get ready for the quake / Take this spark in the dark and fill me up with satisfaction / You know I need that volcanic eruption / And a whole lotta satisfaction /
6.
Bad Decisions He was a simple boy and took no chances / Let this be a cautionary tale / She was susceptible / To the rock ‘n’ roll man’s advances / Elusive like condensation trails / She was a girl of celestial ether / Her smile an exploding meteor stream / He tried to look away / But he didn't make it / Wide awake in this lurid dream / And she kept repeating / boy you gotta hold me tight / I can almost guarantee you / a bad reputation overnight / Hey, everybody loves a bad decision / Even when dissatisfaction´s guaranteed / Staring at hell from a different angle / At first it's not gonna seem that bad / It’s all right to lose your heart / But you just might lose / What you knew you had / And she keeps repeating / boy you gotta hold me tight / I can almost guarantee you / a bad reputation overnight / Driving ‘round with strangers / On the wrong side of town / She had a youth to waste / He should have known better / No no no no no no/ Hey, everybody loves a bad decision / Even when dissatisfaction´s guaranteed /
7.
Phantom Friend Such a beautiful morning / You know the night is gonna be bad / Will you ever return from those giddy lows / The brother that I never had / Why won't you talk to me / Forever guessing it was something I said / I will always have time for you / The brother that I never had / You led the way / I was proud to stay in your footsteps / Did I step out of your shadow? / Did I steal the show? / Wish you'd let me know / The art of losing gracefully / I’m yours painfully / Hot towels & valium/ It's time we cut our phantom limbs / Ten years on the top of my list / But no one else could make me that mad / I expect a telepathic message / Any day now / From the brother that I used to have / For many years I was thought to be mute but I could always talk to you / Please stop fucking your record collection / Tonight we’re gonna make it all come true / Bathing in satanic light / Oh yeah, a-ha, all right / Never mind the bitter end / Thank you and goodnight my friend / Working on a lake of tears for your burial at sea / There's a hole in the dam / Where the power used to be / A thousand days of sleep / Turned into a pillar of salt / So close your eyes at night / and know it’s all your fault /
8.
Waiting For The Parasites Waiting for the parasites / I roll in mud / Stay dirty to feel your bite / Uh, when you gonna bite/ bite all right / Feed of my flesh / I’d be delighted / I came to meet you / Wore my heart on my sleeve / You were not looking / why so hasty to leave / I'll give you plenty to feed of / Waiting for the parasites / Waiting for the parasites / I yearn in lust / Cause you’re my Afrodite Uh, when you're gonna bite / When you’re gonna make your snake bite / It all seems so pointless / Now hear me cry / I know it's stupid / But I know it would please To come full circle with this mental disease / I got blood on my fiddle / Waiting for the parasites / Calling out the parasites / Feed on me / Relentless appetite / Look into the light / Look into the bright light / Quite right / You know I need it / Love - yours sincerely /

Daggers Dance You’re blowing up smoke / Intend to provoke / You call out the beast / The vultures are in for the feast / Do you believe you can outrun your fate / Recede before it’s ever too late On and on / All you can do is / Run / The end has begun/ You will be catching the knife by the blade / Run / You’re second to none / We watch you dancing with daggers /Dancing right into your grave / The moment of truth / The judgement is due / The hour has come / It has been foreseen for so long / Now there is no escape in your fate / Forgiveness is ever to late On and on / All you can do is / Run / The end has begun / You will be catching the knife by the blade / Run / You’re second to none / We watch you dancing with daggers / Dancing right into your grave / The time had to come / You broke every bone / called out \m/ The Beast \m/ / Believed you could withstand it’s teeth / Still you refuse to say you’re to blame /

Doomsday I’m In Love I would love to love the way you love me / All spread out, so pure and ready / Every fatal blow so slowly / Still you beg to have it all / Doomsday we will celebrate / Doomsday will be our final date / Take my hand / Let’s pretend / Oh, Doomsday I’m in love / The world is going under / I’m in love / As one we go asunder / Oh, Doomsday I’m in love / Let me please believe the lies you feed me / All your words are so deceiving / There is no magic spell upon us / Doomsday is for everyone! / Doomsday we will celebrate! / Doomsday will be our final date / Take my hand / Let’s pretend / Oh, Doomsday I’m in love / The world is going under/ I’m in love / As one we go asunder/ Oh, Doomsday I’m in love /

about

Magick Touch Bergen, Norway

Lo, it's been three long years, MAGICK TOUCH return with a surprising twist: a mostly moody and slightly occult-tinged album bearing the curious title Cakes & Coffins. Definitely darker but by no means sacrificing those characteristically majestic MAGICK TOUCH hooks, the trio twist the knife in a different direction that thankfully still sounds 666% like them. ... more
