You Gotta Go There To

Stereophonics You Gotta Go There To Lyrics
1.Help Me(She's Out Of Her Mind)

Dancing
In the mirror
You could see her from a mile man
She was alright
She looked right over her shoulder
Right at me
I was falling through the floor now
She came, over me

Help me, oh help me,
She's out of her mind
Help me, oh help me
Somebody tonight

Laughing, all night
She could tell a funny story
She could stay up all night
She was someone to remember
She was black and white
We did it on a sunbed
And she did it right

Help me, oh help me,
She's out of her mind
Help me, somebody
Oh help me, tonight

Prancing, around a low lit light
Running rags over her shoulders
Red chilli lights
She drink you underneath the table
She hold you heavenly tight
Slap you right across ya white face
She make you cry like a child

Help me, oh help me,
She's out of her mind
Help me, oh help me
Somebody, tonight

Crazy, out of her mind
You wanna shoot her wanna love her
You can't make up your mind
You wanna tell her all your stories
Wanna open your mind
You wanna show her how your heart works
But she ain't got the time

You're fighting, all the time
There's nothing working, nothing gaining
Just a waste of time
You're trying hard to remember
All the beautiful times
But yer clouded by the bullshit
All of the time

Loving, on a Saturday night, making love under a blanket
With the telly on loud
You wanna show her that you love her
But there's sex on ya mind
Makin' love from watching movies
I think I'm doin' it right

Help me, oh help me
She's out of, her mind
Help me, so help me
Somebody tonight


2.Maybe Tomorrow

Been down and I'm wondering why
These little black clouds keep walking around with me, with me
Waste time and I'd rather be high
Think I'll walk me outside and buy a rainbow smile but be free,
be all free
So maybe tomorrow I'll find my way home
So maybe tomorrow I'll find my way home

I look around at a beautifiul life
I been the upper side of down; been the inside of out but we
breathe, we breathe

I wanna a breeze and an open mind
I wanna swim in the ocean, wanna take my time for me, it's all
free

So maybe tomorrow I'll find my way home
So maybe tomorrow I'll find my way home

So maybe tomorrow I'll find my way home
So maybe tomorrow I'll find my way home


3.Madame Helga

Mary mary where you been?
she went out all night and got no sleep
tales and memories of a place i know,
Said that's the place where the fire flies glow

Slapped my white face
pulled my head from the clouds,
buying, lying, flying and lying
dying to know what spins your world around

in the morning i miss ya,
but your bringing me down,
i saw a lady a rollin
today on the line
it was the 40th hour
I fought my 40th fight
madam helga's folly
its where i spent last night.

I've been married not once not twice but three
living like every woman want me to be,
there were pictures and paintings of freaks like me
so i drank with my devil for my company.

Slapped my white face
pulled my head from the clouds,
buying, lying, flying and lying
dying to know what spins your world around

in the morning i miss ya,
but your bringing me down,
i saw a lady a rollin
today on the line
it was the 40th hour
I fought my 40th fight
madam helga's folly
it's where i spent last night


4.Climbing The Wall

I'm just lying here
Thinking to myself again
I'm round the bend

I've been driving round
Talking to myself again
Not making no sense

What makes you and
What makes me
What makes men lie
Through their teeth
And what makes ten-ton birds
Fly me across the sea

And who's to say, that if the sun went out today
That all the movie stars would drive their cars away
Fallen angels from their pay cheques on parade

What's going down?
What's going around?
I'm climbing the wall

I'm just standing here
Looking at myself again
I'm going blind

I'm just sitting here
Playing with myself again
It's turning me on

So what makes you and what makes me
What makes women lie through their teeth
And what makes ten-ton ships
Sail me across the sea

And who's to say, that if the sun went out today
That all the movie stars would drive their cars away
Fallen angels from their pay cheques on parade
What's going down?
What's going around?
I'm climbing the wall

So what makes you and what makes me
What makes people lie through their teeth
And what makes ten-ton trains
Rail me under the sea

And who's to say, that if the sun went out today
That all the movie stars would drive their cars away
Fallen angels from their pay cheques on parade
What's going down?
What's going around?
I'm climbing the wall


5.Getaway

Remember when we were angels?
Folks thought it was all sex and drugs
But you're in my world
Not a care in the world
I can see the kiss in the morning
So you were outta breath in the late day sun
Until your Mamma called you home
And you didn't wanna go

Fly, be my getaway
Gotta getaway
Fly, be my getaway
Gotta getaway

Cops, robbers, cowboys and indians
Hanging round the corner of the street where we live
How come you felt so far away
Just a stone throw away

Your best friend wasn't someone you work with
The money of your own would burn a hole in your pocket all day
Not a single debt to pay

Fly, be my getaway
Gotta getaway
Fly, be my getaway
Gotta getaway

Fly, be my getaway
Gotta getaway
Fly, be my getaway
Gotta getaway


6.You Stole My Money Honey

You stole my money honey
You're cold your blood's stopped running
And know you're buying your new life
Can't help but find you funny
The clothes you wear are something
You made your whole life boasting lies

Pretend you're high and something
To think, you think I'm dumb, you're blind!

I'll get by fine without you
I lie about you
You got no spine only mine
Don't you know wrong from right

It's up to you
You're such a fool

See I'm a giver, taker!
You liked your cocaine chaser
The girls you love all sleep around
You got a piece of something
But what it's worth is nothing
Coz what you want you just can't buy

Pretend you're high on something
To think you think I'm dumb, you're blind

I'll get by fine without you
I lie about you
You got no spine only mine
Don't you know wrong from right
You got no style about you
I try to like you
I got no time for you now
Cos your time's running out

It's up to you
You're such a fool

I'll get by fine without you
I lie about you
You got no spine only mine
Don't you know wrong from right
You got no style about you
I try to like you
I got no time for you now
Cos your time's running out

It's up to you
It's up to you
Such a fool
It's up to you


7.Jealousy

Jealousy, my devil
jealousy, my hell
jealousy, insomnia
jealousy, sleep well
Innocence, is heaven
innocence, is hell
innocence, in everyone
innocence, is dead

Four and twenty black boys singing in the street
getting high, most things, wishing they were free

My angel, my devil, my hell, my heaven,
my storm, my calm, my photograph in my palm

Four and twenty white boys singing in the street
getting high, most things, wishing they were free

I been your bridge, yeah
I been your boy
I been your teacher
I been your joy
I been your drunk
I been your home
I been your rock
You been my stone

Four and twenty poor boys singing in the street
getting high, most things, wishing they were free


8.I'm Alright(You Gotta Go There To Come Back)

I'll drink another drink for you
One, two, three, four, five
Once I drank a fish alive,
I'll drop another pill for you
Six, seven, eight, nine, ten
Did it before, do it again
I'll tell another joke you for you
Did you hear the one about the one that looks like you
I'll sleep with sleeping rounds for you
Why don't you scratch my back and chew the tounge I chew?

I'm alright
I'm alright

I'll tell another lie for you
Tell you what you want to hear but that don't make it true
I'll wear another smile for you
That way you'll know I'm fine and having fun with you

I'll draw another another line for you
That way you'll know I'm hip, that way you'll know I'm cool
I'll smoke another smoke for you
I'll blow back in your mouth and you can blow back too

I'm alright
I'm alright, you gotta go there to come back

I'll take another punch for you
Tie my hands behind my back that way you cannot lose
I'll make another pound for you
So you can drive your motor car and drive you to the moon
I'm alright
I'm alright, alright

Happy, you're free, alright
Love, pain, sun, rain, alright


9.Nothing Precious At All

I been people watching again
I think they watch me too
There's a new girl at the coffee house
She's got first day blues

She's got red hair and a motorbike
And lime green shoes
A mohair hat and a summers dress
And black tattoos

And then she fly away
In her high heel feet
And her fire dress
And she's throwing things
That took her time to save it up
And buy what's special
Then she look around
And sees what's left
And it's nothing much
Nothing precious at all
Nothing precious at all

Gonna drink herself to sleep tonight
And that's nothing new
She goes out almost nine every night
And gets high as the moon

She takes photographs of American cars
Where she went to school
She likes fireworks and candlelight
And fake bad news

And then she fly away
In her high heel feet
And her fire dress
And she's throwing things
That took her time to save it up
And buy what's special
Then she look around
And sees what's left
And it's nothing much
Nothing precious at all
Nothing precious at all

Nothing precious at all

Is she a loner or a mother's girl
That's up to you
She got fine lines round her tired eyes
And they're painted blue
She could sleep around with anyone
If she wanted to
Gotta go my time is up right now
Got stuff to do


10.Rainbows And Pots Of Gold

I heard you're doing well
Selling art and everything
I like you're stuff; good for you
I'll buy a piece or maybe two

Do you ever think of me?
Do you remember all our stupid dreams?
Rainbows and pots of gold
So much to prove before we got old

I took you places round the world
I miss you're face sometimes you know
You took my picture a thousand times
I bought them back; I don't mind

I lost my way but found my track
I'm sorry if I never listened back
I've been round; I've been up and down
And you missed the one we dressed like clowns

And how's your car and how's your life?
How's my friend; when's she gonna be your wife?
I'm sitting up writing down
These things I sometimes dream about

I knew your number off by heart
It's the only one I like to talk
It wasn't me using you
I trusted you; one of the few

And we had some laughs; had some rows
But in the end the walls came down
You like the place I'm living now
It's a shame you can't come around

And I've grown a lot since we last spoke
Got myself together; fixed what was broke
I wonder if we'll talk again
Or drink together just like then

I suppose it's different now it's new
Whoever points the finger at who
I really hope you're happy both of you
And maybe sometimes you miss me too


11.I Miss You Now

I feel I wanna hold you, wanna tell you that you'll be alright
Sang this song today, it's recalling your pictures all in my
mind
I miss you now
I miss you now
Although we're getting old now my old friends gonna leave me and
die
I'm helpless, it's gonna get us before we get this, I wanna kiss
you goodbye
I miss you now
I miss you now
I miss you now

I feel I wanna hold you, wanna tell you that you'll be alright
I'm helpless, it's gonna get us before we get this, I wanna kiss
you goodbye
I miss you now
I miss you now
I miss you now


12.High As The Ceiling

Come on get up high as the ceiling
Get up on the floor
Think I lost my mind and my feeling
Been there all before

Find my way
Free my soul
Blind and loaded
Lined and sorted
It's time......

If you think you'll make a fool out of me
I got a little something up my sleeve
I can think of better places to be
So get yourself down on the street

So come on take my hand if you need me
Just knock up on my door
You got to stop your mind from dreaming
And live your life some more

Find my way
Free my soul
Wine and water
Shine light on my time......

If you think you'll make a fool out of me
I got a little something up my sleeve
I can think of better places to be
So get yourself down on the street

Come on get up high as the ceiling
Leave me a light at home
I'm running out of time and I need it
I need a lifetime more

Find my way
Free my soul
Eyes wide open
Time is on my side......

If you think you'll make a fool out of me
I got a little something up my sleeve
I can think of better places to be
So get yourself down on the street

Come on get up high as the ceiling
Get up on the floor
Come on get up high as the ceiling
Get up on the floor
Come on get up high as the ceiling
Get up on the floor
Think I lost my mind and my feeling
Been there all before


13.Since I Told You It's Over

Black and blue from the wind and the rain
Said I'm sorry for the lies and the pain
I never ever meant to make you cry
If I could take you back, you know, I would,
I wanna burn up and die

So take a look at me now
Since I told you it's over
You got a hole in your heart
I'll find a four leaf clover
You can't tell me this now
This far down the line
That you're never, ever gonna get over me

You've seen a cross, it's a cross I bear
You're drinking, hard up, living without a hope or a care
You're making do to please, see what makes you smile
You're not around for long, you gotta see what's gonna move your
life right along

So take a look at me now
Since I told you it's over
You got a hole in your heart
I'll find a four leaf clover
You can't tell me this now
This far down the line
That you're never, ever gonna get over me

I'm lost
I'm cold
I'm getting old
My head is filled with lies I told

I've been down
I've been around
But I've fallen on my own two feet
And I've left you out to drown
I never meant for that

I look around, sometimes I stare
I think back now and then, I hope you know I care
I walked away that day, trying to treat you right
But you were on your track, it was me turning back, I left you
freezing outside

So take a look at me now
Since I told you it's over
You got a hole in your heart
I'll find a four leaf clover
You can't tell me this now
This far down the line
That you're never, ever gonna get over me
Never get over me
Never get over me

But you were on your track, it was me turning back, I left you
freezing outside

So take a look at me now
Since I told you it's over
You got a hole in your heart
I'll find a four leaf clover
You can't tell me this now
This far down the line (to fade)
