Move his way

Nice and Slow

Paint it all black

Let the humorous glow

He feels like Sacher-Masoch

And the fire below

Is licking at his lips

Cracks the whip

Come on crack

Crack the whip

Swallowing flames

Sinking in the snow

He enjoys feeling pain

He enjoys peeling slow

Lagartija Nick

It's no dumb show

Your name's on his whip

Crack the whip

Come on crack

A code of play

A nocturn rite

In the cruel garden of dark delights

Sixteen cages crawl in line

Desire is a heady wine

Come on crack

Crack

All in pain

It's no dumb show

Fire below

Is licking at his lips

Swallowing flame

Crack

Hijacked from Wikipedia:

Often referred to as the "godfathers" of goth-rock because of their sometimes dark music and frightening stage show theatrics, Bauhaus served as an inspiration to later gothic outfits such as Christian Death, Alien Sex Fiend, and Marilyn Manson. However, confining Bauhaus to the category of goth-rock ignores the group's sense of humor, uniqueness, and desire for musical experimentation. "Their music was dark rock 'n' roll," asserted the Official Bauhaus Web Site, "owing more to Elvis Presley's 'Heartbreak Hotel' than to their imitator's pompous epics which gave the Gothic genre a bad name." After the members of Bauhaus went their separate ways in 1983, they continued to find commercial and critical acclaim with acts such as Love and Rockets. And into the later 1990s, Bauhaus songs still sounded contemporary, the group's albums sold better than ever, and the band's live shows remained legendary.

Bauhaus formed in 1978 in Northampton, England; the group's founding members included bassist and vocalist David J (born David Jay Haskins), his brother Kevin Haskins, a drummer, guitarist Daniel Ash, and vocalist Peter Murphy. David J, Haskins, and later Ash all played together prior to Bauhaus under various names such as The Craze, The Submerged Tenth or Jack Plug, and The Sockettes. However, all of these relatively unknown outfits seemed to lack a certain chemistry. In an attempt to salvage the threesome's pursuits, Ash decided to call upon Murphy, an old school friend who shared the trio's musical tastes, and asked him to join the band. This decision proved beneficial from the start, for within just a couple of weeks, Ash and Murphy had written an astounding number of songs, including "Dark Entries," "In the Night," "Boys," "Harry," and many more.

In the 80's we had no money, few opportunities but we were stuck for choice for incredible music - like this. Fantastic to hear it again.
