Bauhaus - The Man With The X-Ray Eyes Lyrics






Shoes that no man would want to wear
Wipe away the night's last cold stare
Red fist curled 'round the house
Was away boy Shelly's shoes
wash

Chocolate power is so crisp
The atomic open house is really here
And we have gone so desperate
Your power knows no bounds
And heavier with time
Are our shoes
That no man would want to wear
New tread wipes a wet road so dry
it stings

Into the borrowed course
Under the dreadful birds
Under the singing soil
And all those guilty clouds

I have seen too much
Wipe away my eyes
Too much

    Most underrated band of our lifetime. So beyond the boring goth label /genre that they have always been subjected to.

  8. Y.... J....

    The music press hated Bauhaus. Seen as contrived (some of their stuff was) but some of their stuff was amazing.

  9. S.... T....

    First off, wow, the fans! Do you actually hear what they are saying? And, that was yesterdays news. I just finished 2018 first semester biology and am turning over in my sleep. I have an extension to finish chemistry. So to all the fans who enjoy the music, open your ears, eyes and senses. Ain't not joke or casual entertainment. We are on the cusp of what I do not know. However, some people are already headed for permanent relocation to Mars. And, that is on the for realz tip.

    That Bauhaus logo 00:05 = Peter Murphy : ´ Say, Lets rip PIL´s logo right off, shall we ? ` Whole band : ´ Fukk yeah ! That will teach Lydon not to say we are ´Nostalgia for self(ie) depressed millennial Goth` !!!! `

  71. M.... E....

    It hurts to know that people think Lil Peep and shit like that is goth, and call themselves goth cos they listen to soundcloud rappers and wear fishnets with ripped jeans
