The Perfect Kiss - Substance Edit; Live at Irvine Meadows, California, September 1987; 2023 Digital Master

I stood there beside myself
Thinking hard about whoever
Make it by a friend of mine
Suggesting we go out together
Then I knew it from the start
This friend of mine would fall apart
Pretending not to see his gun
I said, "Let's go out and have some fun"

I know, you know
We believe in a land of love
I know, you know
We believe in a land of love

I have always thought about
Staying in and going out
Tonight I should have stayed at home
Playing with my big fat cock
He has always been so strange
I always knew he was deranged
Pretending not to see his gun
I said, "Let's go out and have some fun"

I know, you know
We believe in a land of love
I know, you know
We believe in a land of love

When you're all alone at night
You search yourself out for things
That you believe aren't right
If you give all away
You follow me, your only chance
To leave here today
Vilified per cent on your street
You're losing out a broken heart
In a land of meat

My friend, he took his final breath
Now I need to put that kiss
'Cause the kids are dead
