Amphetamine Logic was released on The Sisters of Mercy's first album First And Last And Always.

On the sleeve it is, however, listed as Logic as the record company was apparently worried

about possibly promoting an album with drug references on the cover.


Lyrics

First And Last And Always - LP Cover (front )

Watch them do
The falling over
Watch them do
The standing still
Nothing but the knife to live for
One life, all I need
Give me one good reason
Give me more s.....

(Women)
And the women come and go
(Talk)
Talking about me like they know
(Men)
Bought and sold
And the world keeps turning
People cold
And people burning

Nothing but the knife to live for
One life, all I need
Give me one good reason
Give me more s.....

Nothing but the knife to live for
One life, all I need
Give me one good reason
Give me more s... (amphetamine logic)
Hit up
Steel in hand
Lit up
Like candles
Burning
Like Catherine wheels
Turning
On

Nothing but the knife to live for
One life, all I need
Give me one good reason
Give me more s... (Amphetamine logic)
(x3)
