High on diesel and gasoline
psycho for drum machine
shaking their bits to the hits
Drag acts, drug acts, suicides
in your dad's suits you hide
staining his name again
Cracked up, stacked up, 22
psycho for sex and glue
lost it to Bostik, yeah
Shaved heads, rave heads, on the pill
got too much time to kill
get into bands and gangs
Oh, here they come, the beautiful ones
the beautiful ones
la, la, la, la
Oh, here they come, the beautiful ones
the beautiful ones
la, la, la, la
loved up, doved up, hung around
stoned in a lonely town
shaking their meat to the beat
High on diesel and gasoline
psycho for drum machine
shaking their bits to the hits
Oh, here they come, the beautiful ones
the beautiful ones
la, la, la, la
Oh, here they come, the beautiful ones
the beautiful ones
You don't think about it
You don't do without it
because you're beautiful
And if your baby's going crazy
that's how you made me
la, la, la, la...
쇼킹한 데뷔앨범으로 내 눈길을 잡았던 스웨이드가 1996년 발표한 최고 히트작.
가사와 어울리지 않는 단순하지만 강렬하고 경쾌한 멜로디 위에 독특한 창법과 비음이 강한 음색이 더해졌다.
항상 앨범 자켓에 야릇한 섹슈얼 이미지를 사용하지만 꽃미남이라는 이유만으로도 용서가 된다.
브릿팝의 토대가 되었던 스웨이드. 가진 재능에 비해 별로 빛을 발하지 못한 것이 아쉽다.
