Biography:
Cocteau Twins were an innovative and influential Scottish dream pop band. Forming in 1979 in Grangemouth, Scotland, UK (the name taken from an obscure song by fellow Scots Simple Minds), they built a sound based on woozy atmospherics and singer Elizabeth Fraser's unmatchable vocals, most of which featured lyrics of made-up words and words plucked at random from the dictionary.
Their first release was "Garlands" in 1982 on 4AD Records, which was received well.

[Intro]
A E D
[Verse]
A E D
Beetles and eggs and blues and pour a little everything else

You steam a lens stable eyes and glass

Not get pissed off through my bird lips as good news
[Chorus]

Still we can find our love down from behind
C#m D
Down far behind this fabulous, my turn rules

C#m D F#m
We hanged your pass and start being as you in ecstasy
(Still being cried and laughed at before)

And should I be hugged and tugged down through this tiger's masque
A D Bm F#m
And should I be sung and unbroken by not saying
[Chorus] (You mind not saying)
C#m D
He'll hang that heart's black and dull as the night
(Still being cried and laughed at from behind me, from gains)
F#m C#m D
We hanged your pass and star being as you in ecstasy
(Still being cried and laughed at from behind me, from gains)
