Whose Side Are You On

Basia Whose Side Are You On Lyrics
1.WHOSE SIDE ARE YOU ON?

Lyrics:Reilly/White/Ross
Music:Reilly/White/Ross

One empty place, at a table for two,
Our agent in Rome, A cafe rendez-vous
The seat is soon taken, contact is made,
Surveyed by another whose secret is safe

Whose side are you on?
Whose side are you on?

The courier falls, the coffee was drugged,
The waiter makes off with the microdot.
You don't have to believe to play that double cross,
Spying for the side that pays the most.

Whose side are you on?... etc.

Who's that someone on the inside, an undercover mole?
Too late to use a lie detector, now some heads will roll.


2.MORE THAN I CAN BEAR

Lyrics:Reilly/White
Music:Reilly/White

Thought that I was over you.
How I was mistaken -
Why did I bump into you,
And start this chain reaction?
I felt it building up inside
When suddenly it was more than I could bear, more than I could
bear.

When I saw you walking down the road with someone new,
I couldn't believe that it was true, it was true

I find it hard to sleep at night,
This jealousy is burning bright -
Visions of somebody else
Torment me to destruction.
I think of him making, making love to you
And it's more than I can bear, more than I can bear.

When I saw you walking down the road with someone new,
I couldn't believe that it was true, it was true.
When I saw you walking down the road with someone new,
I closed my eyes, I know I'm over you, over you.


3.NO NO NEVER

Lyrics:Reilly/White
Music:Reilly/White

Come closer to me, drift into my melody
Don't resist my charms, when you could be in my arms.

Let your inhibitions go, let me take control,
Come closer to me, come closer to me.
Let your inhibitions go, body and soul,
Come closer to me... cha cha cha.

No no never, no no never, no no never, no no never.

Come closer to me, step into this harmony.
Don't deprive yourself to a helping of myself.

Let your inhibitions go,... etc.

Give in to, give in to - no no never, no never.
Give in to the crazy beat


4.HALF A MINUTE

Lyrics:Reilly/White/Poncioni
Music:Reilly/White/Poncioni

What is there to say
When all the love has slipped away
In half a minute.
There is always something we can blame,
But in the end, it's just the same -
Suddenly, you find yourself alone.

Half a minute
Half a minute

What is there to say
When every dream just fades away
In half a minute.
Every explanation we can find
Will never change it, we are through -
Suddenly, you find yourself alone.

Half a minute
Half a minute


5.GET OUT OF YOUR LAZY BED

Lyrics:Reilly/White
Music:Reilly/White

Get up, get up, get out of your lazy bed
Before I count to three, step to it, baby.

She goes out every night 'til the morning is light
And she sleeps all day.
So come on, get up, I won't say it again,
I'll drag you out.

I don't care any more, you can sleep on the floor,
'Cos I'm locking you out,
So come on, get up, I won't say it again
I'll drag you out

Get up, get up, get out of your lazy bed


6.IT'S GETTING LATE

Lyrics:Reilly/White
Music:Reilly/White

Come right in and close the door,
Let me take your coat, get comfortable.
I'll go and put some music on.
Would you like a drink, cigarette?
I have to say you're very beautiful this evening,
Come over here and sit by me.

I don't know, it's getting late, I have to go
I'd like to stay but, I really have to go

The night is young, you don't have to go,
Another drink, just take it slow
And we can get to know one another.

I don't know, it's getting late, I have to go
I'd like to stay but, I really have to go.
Maybe some other time, the answer is no!

I never, I never, no no I never, I never, I never said I would.


7.SNEAKING OUT THE BACK DOOR

Lyrics:Reilly/White
Music:Reilly/White

I don't stay long when things are going wrong
I haven't got the time, you see.
Moving from place to place, another town, a different face
You may find me
Sneaking out the back door with a grin.

Love, I've had it before, it nailed me to the floor,
I prefer my own company.
Love to me is being free with no responsibility,
So you may find me
Sneaking out the back door with a grin.

Just another drink and I'll be on my way,
Sneaking through the back door with a grin.

I move along when things are going wrong,
So you may find me
Sneaking out the back door with a grin.


8.RIDING WITH THE WIND

Lyrics:Reilly/White
Music:Reilly/White

You see I've got this funny feeling
That all my plans and expectations
Wait somewhere for me.
I hung around this sorry town
And had my shares of ups and downs
And now it's time to leave.

Riding with the wind,
In search of just one thing,
Riding with the wind.

You see I've got this funny feeling
That you and I will be leaving
On the midnight plane,
Pack all your cares and woes
And come with me to heaven knows
And see what we can see.
