"Weak"
Released: 15 January 1996

Lost in time, I can't count the words
I said when I thought they went unheard
All of those harsh thoughts, so unkind
'Cause I wanted you
And now I sit here, I'm all alone
So here sits a bloody mess, tears fly home
A circle of angels deep in war
'Cause I wanted you

Weak as I am, no tears for you
Weak as I am, no tears for you
Deep as I am, I'm no one's fool
Weak as I am

So what am I now? I'm love's last hope
I'm all of the soft words I once owned
If I opened my heart, there'd be no space for air
'Cause I wanted you

Weak as I am, no tears for you
Weak as I am, no tears for you
Deep as I am, I'm no one's fool
Weak as I am

In this tainted soul
In this weak young heart
Am I too much for you?

In this tainted soul
In this weak young heart
Am I too much for you?

In this tainted soul
In this weak young heart
Am I too much for you?

Weak as I am, weak as I am
Weak as I am, weak as I am, am, am

Weak as I am
Am I too much for you?
Weak as I am
Am I too much for you?
Weak as I am
Am I too much for you?
Weak as I am

Album PARANOID & SUNBURNT (1995)

SKUNK ANANSIE - PARANOID & SUNBURNT

Skunk Anansie are a British rock band whose members include Skin (lead vocals, guitar), Cass (bass, guitar, backing vocals), Ace (guitar, backing vocals) and Mark Richardson (drums and percussion). Skunk Anansie formed in 1994, disbanded in 2001 and reformed in 2009. The name "Skunk Anansie" is taken from Akan folk tales of Anansi the spider-man of Ghana, with "Skunk" added to "make the name nastier". They have released six studio albums: Paranoid & Sunburnt (1995), Stoosh (1996), Post Orgasmic Chill (1999), Wonderlustre (2010), Black Traffic (2012) and Anarchytecture (2016); one compilation album, Smashes and Trashes (2009); and several hit singles, including "Charity", "Hedonism", "Selling Jesus" and "Weak". They are often grouped as part of the Britrock movement, as opposed to the contemporary Britpop of their early years due to their overall harder sound. The band, in 2004, was named as one of the most successful UK chart acts between 1952 and 2003 by the Guinness Book of British Hit Singles & Albums, with a total of 142 weeks on both the singles and album charts ranking them at No. 491. Skunk Anansie have sold 5 million records. Influences: Skin has described Skunk Anansie as a "clit-rock" group, which Allmusic clarifies as "an amalgam of heavy metal and black feminist rage". Members Skin and Ace have mentioned the Sex Pistols, Blondie, dub, reggae, electronica, hip-hop and world music as significant influences. Other media: The band also covered The Stooges' song "Search and Destroy" specifically for the soundtrack of Zack Snyder's film Sucker Punch, released on 25 March 2011. The soundtrack also includes a Skunk Anansie remix of the song "Army of Me" by Björk. Band members: Deborah "Skin" Dyer – lead vocals, guitar, theremin, piano, keyboards (1994–2001; 2009–present), Martin "Ace" Kent – guitar, backing vocals (1994–2001; 2009–present), Richard "Cass" Lewis – bass, guitar, backing vocals (1994–2001; 2009–present), Mark Richardson – drums, percussion, backing vocals (1995–2001; 2009–present), Former members: Robbie France – drums, percussion (1994–1995; died 2012), Touring members: Erika Footman – keyboards, backing vocals.
And I have the great, great honor of having five Skunk Anansie CD-albums in my discography, led by the charismatic vocalist and songwriter, Skin. Therefore, I have a unit of the CD-Album PARANOID & SUNBURNT (1995), a unit of the second studio CD-Album, and perhaps, their greatest commercial success, STOOSH (1996), I also have the third studio CD-Album, my favourite, POST ORGASMIC CHILL (1999), two units. And finally, the CD-Album of the greatest hits collection, SMASHES AND TRASHES, released in 2009, which includes three new songs and two live acoustic songs. Altogether there are five CD-albums, including the second copy of the CD-Album POST ORGASMIC CHILL (1999).
Paranoid & Sunburnt is the debut studio album by British rock band Skunk Anansie, first released in 1995 via One Little Indian Records. It was re-released in 2005 with a DVD featuring the videos to the singles. This album was recorded with the band's original drummer, Robbie France, but he is not featured on the cover.

Singles: Five singles were taken from Paranoid & Sunburnt, four of which were commercially released. Single: "Little Baby Swastikkka" was the first release from the album.
