Siouxsie And The Banshees - 92° Lyrics






The day drags by like a wounded animal
The approaching disease, 92 degrees
The blood in our veins and the brains in our head
The approaching unease, 92 degrees

Long ago in the headlines, they noticed it too
But too late for the loved ones and nearly for you...

Shaky lines -- on the horizon
Snaky thoughts -- invade each person
Watch the red line -- creeping upwards
Watch the sanity line weaken
The volcanic depths of Hades' ocean
Bubble under, these crazed eruptions
It wriggles and writhes and bites within,
Just below the sweating skin

I wondered when this would happen again
Now I watch the red line, reach that number again
The blood in our veins and the brains in our head...

Drink the water with jagged glass
Eat the cactus with bleeding mouth
Not 91 or 93, but 92 Fahrenheit degrees

Shaky lines -- on the horizon
Snaky thoughts -- invade each person
Not 91 or 93, but 92 Fahrenheit degrees

    Did you that this sentence is taken from "Them" an old Horror Movie, also known as Formicula?

  8. A.... P....

    Love how Carruthers has that Paul Wright-esque guitar sound, before Wright was using it in Fields of the Nephilim

    this is my first venture into Souxie and the Banshees. I've heard them here and there over the years but it never really did anything for me. I saw this album randomly in my youtube suggestion, so i gave it a try. the thing that attracted me is the cover. it brought back memories of real goth from the late 80s and early 90s. Reminds me of how The Crow made me feel. Something so attractive to me about that era of goth music, it feels more sincere than any of that style that came after. this album is haunting. it took me about 4 sit throughs with it before it really occured to me how brilliant the music alone is. the guitars are always working and creating a spider web of imagery, the drums are always pounding forward, the bass is like a melodic shadow creeping constantly throughout. souxie's range is unreal. the vibrato of her voice and the reverb. it all blends together to remind me of a dream, where hope is just ever so out of reach. the darkness, flowing comfortably in my head creating imagery of abandoned places, dusty rooms, and emptiness, all while somehow making me feel joy at the same time. what beautiful art this album is.

    Your full eh shite mate. No offence like..

    The occult number for destruction is 11. When you add 9+2=11. Revelation 9:11 "They have over them a king, an Angel of the Abyss whose name in Hebrew is A-bad-don the Destroyer. The Twin Towers were a Giant number 11. On 9-11 Flight 11 hit the N Tower just before 9 am, some reports said 11 minutes to 9 ?. Peter Gabriel's song of destruction Sledge Hammer won 9 MTV awards on 9-11-1987. The first year of HAARP Gakona Alaska HAARP hurricane hit the island of Kauai on 9-11-1992.. The phone number you call in an emergency is 911. The top selling Porsche model is the 911. Morons will deny any correlation. Please then tell me why numerous ALLEGED nuclear tests have been conducted on 9-11 by the US, UK & Russia. By the way one shadow government comprised of occult members controls all governments. All wars are based on lies orchestrated by the Rothschild banking cartel families. All wars are based on lies for population control & profit. Dick Cheney became a multi millionaire because of the immoral Iraq war. Bush Obama wars have purposely inflated the national debt which is now $21.67 trillion. In the near future the IMF will declare the US dollar insolvent which will cause worldwide economic collapse, controlled chaos, Martial Law & WW3. The propaganda news media is fomenting racial division. Most of the mass shootings in recent decades are staged with full cooperation of local & federal law enforcement for gun control propaganda. My theory is they may assassinate Tiger Woods & Lebron James to spark race riots. They may even stage a fake assassination of Donald Trump-et so Michael Pence would be the new figurehead puppet & Commander in chief of the US military. The one & only Archangel is the Commander in chief of the United army of Angels. Michael is Jesus Christ !!!

    I know for a fact Rothschild archaeologists unearthed Nephilim Giant bones & have cross hybridized the DNA with animal DNA to create Giant alien looking Beastly hybrids to stage a fake HG Wells War of the Worlds alien invasion. By cross hybridizing species they've created many Beastly hybrids including Dragons, Leviathan, Megalodon, Dinosaur looking "Raptors" that never existed millions of years ago, Werewolves, Cat People, King Kong, Godzilla, Demonic looking Jeepers Creepers Fallen Angels w/wings & of course a Baphomet looking transvestite with Ram horns. The Beast in the ALIEN movie is obviously a Scorpion hybrid. In 2010 the rock band Scorpions released an album called STING IN THE TAIL, which means something that ends badly. We are living in end times orchestrated by Satan's minions. According to FBI chief Ted Gunderson the US government has built hundreds of FEMA death camps with microwave death chambers & guillotines. Revelation 20:4 explains the guillotines. Revelation 9:11 explains the 9-11 inside job "They have over them a king, an Angel of the Abyss whose name in Hebrew is A-bad-don the Destroyer. The Twin Towers were a Giant number 11 ! on 9-11 Flight 11 hit the N Tower at approx 11 min to 9 !!! If you think this is all coincidental then you really are a moron !

    L.... ....

    I agree with everything you say, except that Michael is Jesus.....

  17. B.... C....

    this was their last great album. in my top 20 best albums of all time.

    B.... C....

    agreed. After this, everything was a bitter disappointment....

    B.... C....

    @Imix Muan Superstition is great and The Rapture is fairly decent.

  18. S.... G....

    One of my favorite albums ever.

  19. G.... L....

    Outstanding track, outstanding album.

  20. R.... S....

    Great album!

    From the description: "Support the artist 'Tinderbox' - LP/CD"
    Lol ... I have this on *cassette* [shows age]

    R.... S....

    I forgot to add the tape which now i have and btw, i m probably older than you mate. Glad you had a good laugh.

  21. K.... S....

    Where the heck is that intro : (00:08 - 00:23) from?? thanks!!!

    K.... S....

    It Came From Outer Space (1953)

  22. m.... ....

    And outside it's 92 degrees. And KROQ is playing Siouxsie and the Banshees.

    m.... ....

    ah such good times...

  23. M.... A....

    It is now 92 Fahrenheit degrees in Georgia.

    M.... A....

    Don't commit any murders Jack. This fucking album is almost perfect. If you didn't know, Candyman is based on a true story of the only documented Halloween candy poisoning in US history, and it was a guy who killed his kid. If you did know, well fuck me.

    M.... A....

    This song is obviously about a pedophile murderer. The rest of the album is about the coming Apocalypse

    M.... A....

    "She was molested by the man who owned the "sweet shop" in her part of the city. I can't even imagine such an experience"

    M.... A....

    I think it's more from a Clive Barker's novel called "The forbidden".

  24. J.... B....

    The best banshees track from the best album by them(Tinderbox)

    J.... B....

    Agree, the sound is great, the songs are all good, my favorite ...i don't understand the gutarist did only play on this album

    J.... B....

    Johnny Zeisner John Carruthers also played on Through the Looking Glass. It's a shame he didn't play on more albums though. He's my favorite Banshees guitarist.

    J.... B....

    Totally agree. Amazing piece of music in every way.

    J.... B....

    Man, how much you are in the right size, only gods knows this truth...

    J.... B....

    Totally agree. The most interesting album and mastepiece of a track.
