1.Beautiful Friend

Here comes a strangest reflection
Throwing a shadow on the wall
Breaking down all my defences
The distance is nowhere at all

Beautiful friend
Beautiful friend

Looking at pictures in a mirror
Counting the faces never stop
Reflecting a European stranger
Fighting the fire from the top

I've had enough of temptation
Strung up like a fox on the wheel
Waiting in so many places
The alternative is really unreal

Beautiful friend
Beautiful friend


2.Billy's Third

If you say no
it would break my heart in two
But don't you realise
There's too many watching you

We're making too many problems
Making matters worse
Maybe its a curse
But oh baby its hurts
But oh baby its hurts

Don't look down cos if you do
you won't see what's in front of you
Can't turn your back on me this time
Cos if you do I won't mind

We're making ...

If you say no
If you say no

We're making ...


3.Bittersweet

I used to cry
I used to cry alone
Watch my face as I grew older
Reflect the world I've known

The kind of love that I would need
Tasted too bittersweet to me

I used to wonder
What it was I did wrong
No amount of conversation
Could keep me holding on

The kind of love ...

Every little tear
That ever used to fall
Broke most of my resistance
That's the cruelest twist of all

The kind of love ...

Don't look back
I don't stop to hang around
Don't except the disappointment
Relationships I have found

The kind of love ...


4.Boys Will Be Boys

Boys - John's gone he's left on a bus
Will be boys - In a hurry he's forgotten about us
Boys - Even Billy's getting confused
Will be boys - He's got the girl now he's nothing to loose
Oh Boy
Boys - Its all over and never again
Will be boys - To be a confrontation like there was just then
Boys - One girl in the neighbourhood
Will be boys - Two boys and one's no good
Oh Boy
Boys - will be boys

Boys - I wanna dance I wanna dance with you
Will be boys - Take you home and kiss you to
Boys - Go steady and show you around
Will be boys - maybe tomorrow we can go downtown
Oh Boy

Boys - This time is my first time to
Will be boys - I never thought it with a girl like you
Boys - Its not what I expected but I don't care
Will be boys - Its a genuine teenage love affair
Oh Boy

Boys - will be boys


5.Boy Wonder

Boy Wonder never wants to grow up
Cos with some competition he won't look so great
But he's the biggest in the street
He knows to use his weight
But when he comes to realise
It will be too late

Kept away from school he didn't fit
And to the younger children he was it
Like an older brother who still wants to play
Innocent of hateful people and the things they say

He would want to be the last one there
About the cold he would say he doesn't care
Cos when we're gone he talks himself into another place
Everybody likes to know right to his face

Boy Wonder ..


6.Bye Bye Baby Blue

She looks a part of yesterdays modern girl
Another lover caught above her social world
A simple women she's not
Sophisticated she's got
She doesn't want to be too ordinary

Hello lady driver
Bye bye baby blue
Put love under pressure
See what it can do

She didn't care as the years kept crashing closer
To a serious situation getting worse
If life had been unkind
Her beauty beaten blind
She didn't want to hurt anybody

Hello lady driver ...

And if I dream I have to dream of something
That's doesn't mean I have to dream of you
The stains on my bed
Like the blemishes you left
Are all that reminds me of you

Hello lady driver ...


7.Casbah Rock

Now it won't take long
Now before you know
If you're not thrown out
Then you'll want to go

Cos you'll never get pop at the Casbah Rock
You'll never get pop at the Casbah Rock
Ooh you won't get pop at the Casbah Rock
You'll never get pop at the


8.Chain Of Love

Every night when the light has gone
I can see you carry on
Knights in armour won't rescue you
In the shadows - the naked truth

Chain of love - don't put me away
Chain of love - don't put me away

Any time you took my name
i had to change it back again
Caught in crossfire never worried me
I'm caught in chains deliberately

Chain of love - don't put me away ...

Take me away from this notion
I'm nervous enough
Take me away from this girl
Who's a genius for love

She's a genius

Lonely nights like the night before
See I've made you ask for more
Tropical fever when the heat is on
A pocket Venus the lonely one ?

Chain of love - don't put me away ...


9.Cher O'Bowlies

Rain rain from the sky
When I imagine love will die
Its not making love alone
Though all must come and go

All that's coming from the sky
Is cold and turning turning blue
This may seem mighty strange
Coming through to you

Life is just a Cher O Bowlies

Whats the use of singing this song
Some of you aren't even listening

Life is just a Cher O Bowlies


10.Conscious

It makes me wonder
How to read your understanding
It makes me wonder
What's in your mind
It makes me wonder
How the flash of love keeps blinding
It makes me wonder
Time after time

Meet distant love
Meet distant love and see what's in store
Watch it evolve
A conscious way to what's now no more

But what is love ?
But what is love ?
A cut above
Its what gets you noticed

It makes me wonder ...

I've seen the switch
I've seen the hungry looks you've let slip
You've fooled us all
A stupid victim under your grip

But what is love ..

It makes me wonder ...


11.Crisis Of Mine

What's wrong with us little girl
I'm safe in our own stupid world
We're always catching some train
Careering is not where we came

A drop in the ocean making us sweat
Hear another notion shaking us yet
This crisis of mine

What's wrong with millions today
If no-one's got nothing to say
As one more secret explodes
Succeeding but nobody knows

A drop in the ocean ...

I don't feel fine
In this crisis of mine
I don't feel fine

What's wrong with us little girl
Dreaming in our own stupid world
Recurring again and again
Our face on the face of a friend

A drop in the ocean ...

A drop in the ocean making us sweat
Hear another notion shaking me yet


12.Emergency Cases

Everybody hates an emergency case ah ha
Everybody hates an emergency case ah ha
Cos who disgraces - emergency cases

Cos when you say we're gone we still hang on ah ha
Cos when you say we're gone we still hang on ah ha
Cos 9 9 9's a waste of time

Everybody hates ...

Cos when you ...
We still hang on when you say we've gone

Everybody hates ...


13.Fairly In The Money Now

Tommy always said he'd make it one day
Lead singer in a top show band
So with some friends made up tunes to play
Tommy Tate and the Torpedoes began

Soon they were the rave of all the high school hops
And satin suits all dressed to kill
Soon tommy's boy's became top of the pops
But then the money came over the hill
But then the money came over the hill

All the cash to spend on their girlfriends
Howard Hughes is missed a turn there
And then their interests
Are manager's requests
They all bought their ranches

Hype-notised by every part that arrived
Higher prices for indifferent songs
But never the less Tommy's into success
So his Torpedoes kept plodding on
And his Torpedoes kept plodding on


14.Family Entertainment

So you think you're so clever never in doubt
But I've seen you two together fooling about
Don't get me wrong now I've seen what you are
Mummy wouldn't like it - its gone too far

Got to - keep it in the family
Learn to - keep it in the family
Have to - keep it in the family
Want to - keep it in the family

Playing with each other its your favourite game
You never try to hide it there's no shame
You'll soon be discovered what will you do then
Family entertainment will come to an end

Got to ...


15.Fascination

Sitting in a fun pub
Nothing every gets done
Then someone opened the door
Lying in the corner
Just by the window
Til some one opened the door

Fascination - nobody see
Fascination - what did he say ?
Fascination - nobody see
Fascination - what did he say ?

Instead of peering outside
I'm always looking inside
Then someone opened the door
Everything was changing
I wasn't even standing
When someone opened the door

Fascination ...

When he used to see her
Down by the parking meter
She used to make him a man
All sorts of places visiting cases
He remembered the shape of her hand
When he used to see her
Down by the parking meter
He used to make her a man
All sorts of places visiting cases
He remembered the shape of her hand

Sitting in a fun pub
Nothing every gets done
Then someone opened the door


16.Forever Paradise

Here's where I'm supposed to be
A strange feeling's got a hold of me

Forever paradise

Seventh heaven with a different face
Another time in a difficult place

Forever paradise

Who said the tide is turning on the sea ?
A strange love's caught up with me

Forever paradise

Forever and ever.


17.Get It On

Well you're dirty and sweet
Clad in Black
Don't look back
And I love you
You're dirty and sweet oh yeah

Well you're slim and you're weak
You got the teeth
Of the hydra upon you
You're dirty sweet
And you're my girl

Get It On
Bang a gong
Get It On

You're built like a car
You got a hubcap
Diamond star halo
You're built like a car
Oh yeah

You're an untamed youth
That's the truth
With your cloak full of eagles
You're dirty sweet
And you're my girl

Well you're windy and wild
You got the blues
I'm your shoes and your stockings
You're windy and wild
Oh yeah

You're built like a car
You got a hubcap
Diamond star halo
You're built like a car
Oh yeah


18.Get Over You

Dressed like that you must be living in a different world
And your mother doesn't know why you can't look like all the
other girls

They stop you in the street - they wanna know your name
To reach you on the phone - cause they know your game
Always running up the alley - trying to get home
Or standing on the corner - never alone

And I don't wanna get over you
It doesn't matter what you do
I just can't get over you - over you

You say the boys with the bikes and the leathers like to beat
you to hell
And the girls where you work don't treat you too well

You think you're such a smacker - but you ain't so bad
Get what you want - with looks like that
Always running up the alley - trying to get home
Or standing on the corner - never alone


19.Girls Don't Like It

Hey wasn't Eddie driving that car ?
Yeah I don't go for him do you ?

Here comes Eddie in a brand new car
Driving like that he won't get far
Kissing in the back seat all the way home
You can't do that if you're on your own
But what else can you do if the girls don't like it

Says he doesn't have nowhere else to go
No late night movies now on radio
Just a TV switched up really loud
Know what I mean it becomes part of the crowd
But what else can you do if the girls don't like it

If the girls want to know what were gonna do know
Always up to things they're not supposed to allow
Leading us on telling no
Making us stop instead of letting us go
But what else can you do if the girls don't like it


20.Girls That Don't Talk

Caroline's dancing
Catina's at home
You get up every morning
Taking lessons on the phone

Girls that don't talk
Sandra's at school
Its another late night
She comes home quiet
Cos her mummy's up tight

Girls that don't talk ...

Girls that don't talk
Still can't see
When they come home from work
And waste their toungues on me


21.Got To Have You Back

Got to have you back I need you
A jealous lie hurt my foolish pride
Made me break your heart
Now our love has died
I see a closing door - a door never more
A door of jealousy between your love and me
Now I face a storm of tears
You took the sunshine from my face
Now I'm just another man
Who walks the undestined way
Without your guiding hand
I can hardly tell when I'm the man
Pride made a fool of me
Now I'm drowning in misery - misery is drowning me

And I've got to have you back I need you
Between the night and day oh heaven speed you
Cos I need you girl
I've been told - it's a loneliness
Oh dark is the emptiness
Since you've been gone in me
Oh gone is the lover I need
Pride destroyed the love we knew
But not my need for you
Without your love around
My whole world is falling down - falling down - all around
And I've got to have you back

Got to have you back
Got to have you back
Got to have you back
Got to have you back

I see a closing door ...

Got to have you back - I'm drowning in misery
Got to have you back - my pride made a fool of me
Got to have you back - my whole world is falling down
Got to have you back - without your sweet love around

Got to have you back ...


22.Hannah Doot

Lets sit down and talk about your life
Hannah Doot - Hannah Doot
And tell me why the tears are in your eyes
Hannah Doot - Hannah Doot

She's crying - I'm trying
Not to feel so sad
But its time to say goodbye
Its time to say goodbye

She's crying ..

So Lets sit down and talk about your life
Hannah Doot


23.Hard Luck

Hey - hey - hey

You come up to me
Saying that you can see
Whilst your in a hole
Your useless
Say you're not a friend
Drives you round the bend
Everything you does
Is success
Haven't you been told
You will soon be old
Bet your life will now
With a charm set

Hard luck - but you got what you wanted
Hard luck - but you got what you wanted of me
Hard luck - but you got what you wanted
Hard luck - but you got what you wanted of me
hard luck - Hard luck

He's been working hard
He can run a car
Only catching girls
That he knows
He gets out quite late
You lie on thill late
Lying in your bed
Reading Beanos
If you weren't like him
You may not have been
A song between
The sucking Venos

Hard luck ...

Hey - hey - hey ...

Hard luck ...


24.Hard Luck (Again)

Hey - hey - hey

Hard luck - Hard luck - Hard luck - Hard luck


25.Here Comes The Summer

Oh baby baby what can I do
You know you drive me crazy when I'm looking at you
The summer's really here and it's time to come out
Time to discover what fun is about

Here comes the summer
Here comes the summer
Here comes the summer

Keep looking for the girls with their faces all tanned
Lying on the beaches all covered in sand
Stretching out their long legs lying in the sun
They know they're beautiful they're having fun

Here comes the summer ...


26.His Good Looking Girlfriend

He's never been more popular since he met Marie
He never went to parties and he's drinking wine for free
He says he doesn't know why he never stays at home

Doesn't he know ?
Doesn't he know ?
Everybody wants to know his good looking girlfriend
Everybody wants to know his good looking girlfriend

He's trying hard to act the part but it never works
They always see through him to her and she's the one that hurts
She hates all his friends and wonders why they're always near

Doesn't she know ?
Doesn't she know ?

Everybody ...

He loves Marie and he's happy at last
Happy to forget his unhappy past

He thinks he's got all those friends but really he's got none

Doesn't he know ...
Everybody wants ...


27.Hypnotised

I was out on own
My friends weren't there
Just about to go home
When you made me stare

I fell into a trance
Just watching you dance
My world just stopped when I saw your eyes on me
H-Y-P I'm hypnotised
H-Y-P I'm hypnotised
H-Y-P

People look at me
Standing by my self
But I only can see
You and no one else

I was still in a trance
Still watching you dance
My world ...

Now the dancing just stopped
And the doors are open
But I'm still on the spot
Your spell isn't broken
I'm still in a trance
Even though you won't dance
My world ...


28.I Can Only Dream

If you really saw the only girl I know
I have to dream a love affair
Like the vacantness that always hurts my flesh
I have to dream a love affair

Dream - I can only dream
Dream alone - you're not there

I'm doing time for an emotional crime
I have to dream a love affair
She's the sweetest girl in a changing world
I have to dream a love affair

Dream ...

With the body of eve and the clothes you wear
I have to dream a love affair

Dream ...


29.I Can Only Give You Everything

By Them

I can't give you more than what I've got
I can't expect to give what I have not
I can only give you loving til the sun goes down
And until the leaves of summer turn to shades of brown

I try and I try
But baby - you know that I
Can only give you everything

I can't argue with you to understand
Cos after all I am just a man
And you are on my mind
When stars appear and shadows fall
And when ever little flower goes
And and no buds call

I try ...

I'll do anything you want me to do
Cos I don't want to know there's life without you
Don't ever go and leave me in this world alone
I'd be like a child if I was on my own

I try ...

Everything baby
A little bit of this
A little bit of that
And everything


30.I Don't Know

I got a postcard from my Majorca
She's now in love with a hotel worker
Holiday extended 52 weeks a year
I wish that I never tried to hurt her

I don't know - this is no time to have a parting

Sunday nights in Oscar's Disco
I wish that I had somewhere good to go
Drinking to beat where the happy people meet
I'm on my own so the night goes so slow

I don't know ...

She doesn't want to come back but I happy to stay
She doesn't want to come back but I happy to stay
She doesn't want to come back but I happy to stay
She doesn't want to come back but I happy to stay

Hey hey hey hey hey hey

I don't know ...


31.I Don't Wanna See You Again

I don't wanna see you again
I don't wanna see you again

You said you don't know how
Its too late now

I don't wanna see ...

You said ...

I don't wanna see ...

You said you don't know how
You're such a stupid cow


32.I Gotta Getta

Jackie Trainer says that she's never at home
Cos when she's in she knows she's never alone
They'd always be somebody whose just hanging around
Waiting for a chance to start putting her down

Next time we'll have to better
I gotta getta
I gotta getta
I gotta getta

Little Jamie hides in the front of the car
He'll never learn to drive he knows its too late now
He turns ignition on and its ready to start
As the car begins to move he feels it falling apart.

Next time ...


33.I Know A Girl

I know a girl
I know that she knows about me
She not just a girl
I think she knows how I feel

I know a girl
I know a girl

I know a girl
I know that see her all the time in the street
She makes me feel
I'm in love every time that we meet
I know a girl
I know a girl

I know a girl
See her everyday of the week
She makes me feel
I'm in love every time that we meet
I know a girl
I know a girl


34.I Told You So

I wake up in the morning
I've been looking for a bed
Somebody told me
You've been sleeping in too late

I told you so - I told you so - I told you so - I told you so
Now its too late to stop I told you so

I've been taking this trouble
Just to set my mind at ease
A man comes in crawling
Won't you please please please

I told you so ...

I never did expect
To have to carry so much weight
But the photographs are ready
You're twenty minutes late

I told you so ...


35.It's Going To Happen

Happens all the time
Its going to happen - happen - till your change your mind
Its going to happen - happen - happens all the time
Its going to happen - happen - till your change your mind

Best story I ever heard
The truth about fat Mr X and the young girl
See how far he'll let you go
Before he persuades you when you're walking home

Happens all the time ...

Watching your friends passing by
Going to sleep without blinking a blue eye
Too slow to notice what's wrong
Two faced to you when you're taking them on

Happens all the time ...

Everything goes when you're dead
Everything empties from what was in your head
No point in waiting today
Stupid revenge is what's making you stay

Its going to happen - happen - till your change your mind


36.Jimmy Jimmy

Little mummy's boy
He wasn't very old
Though he was very small
He did what he was told

Jimmy Jimmy
Jimmy Jimmy - Oooh
Jimmy Jimmy
Poor little Jimmy wouldn't let go

He'd stay awake at night
Lying in his bed
No one ever listened
To a single word he said

Jimmy Jimmy ...

Silly boy
Silly boy
Silly boy
Such a silly boy

Jimmy Jimmy ...

Now little Jimmy's gone
He disappeared one day
But no one saw the ambulance
That took little Jim away

Jimmy Jimmy ...


37.Julie Ocean

So sad to see you've got silver
She's gonna break your dancing heart
Nothing good lasts forever
And sometimes nothing starts

Julie Ocean - always on fire
Julie Ocean - crazy desire

You can't scratch her serious anger
Or touch her sensitive nerve
Watch her faking her power
Smiling as she would

Julie Ocean ...

That's typical girl

Julie Ocean ...


38.Jump Boys

Jump boys - Jump boys - Jump boys - Jump boys

Jump boys are crazy they don't have no sense
Never getting lost in coincidence
Never lost for words they always shoot from the moon
To make it with the girls who can't come to their rooms

Jump boys ...

To be slick to be sorry got more energy than most
Night time's the long time they prowl just like ghosts
Spit at your face never trying to walk away
Get into trouble they've got a lot to say

Jump boys ...


39.Kiss In The Dark

There's a kiss in the dark
Someone speaks
Its a start
Starts to cry
Cries to stop
Can't be nice for the time that we've got
There's a kiss in the dark

Turn on
Turn away
Start love and celebrate
Tell me how
What's wrong
Happy times come down the phone

There's a kiss in the dark ...

Dreamsong
Somewhere
Listening in
Up there

Tell me how ...

There's a kiss in the dark ...

Happy now
I'm there
Take the wind its off again
have you the heart
to see Anymore you want of me

There's a kiss in the dark ...


40.Last Time Around

by Dennis Dahlquist recorded by Chicago garage-punk by the
Del-Vetts

Well - I'm sittin' here sinking on deeper down
My head is a-spinning around and 'round
I can't seem to shake this feelin'
Oh - my body is a-rockin' and reelin'
Oh - it's such a funny feelin'
Well - I know this is the last time around for me - oh yeah

Oh/Well I'm sinking - oh - I'm sinking on deeper down
My eyes are blurred and I can't hear a sound
Fight it - help me fight it
'Cause I know this is the last time around for me - oh yeah

Oh - it's taken me over and swallowed me up
I'm caught in a landslide - I can't run or duck
I've run out of time and I've run out of luck
I know this is the last time around

Oh - yeah
Last time around

Well - I know this is the last time around for me


41.Let's Talk About Girls

By The Chocolate Watch Band from Golden Nuggets

You want to know why I lost you
You want to know what's wrong with you
But nothing's wrong girl you'll feel so tough
Just lying here for me and that ain't enough

I've got to love them all day not just a few
Got to love those pretty girls is what I've got to do

Oh yeah - let's talk about girls
I said yeah - let's talk about girls
Girls that beg for more

See the pretty girls they're just walking by
Turns me on when she gives me the eye
There goes another looking so fine
I won't be happy till I've make her mine

I've got to love them all day ...
Let's talk about women


42.Life's Too Easy

From the other side of the wall

You don't have to get out of bed this morning
That's what it said on the radio

Stop complaining boy - your life's too easy
Stop complaining boy - your life's too easy

Something will happen without warning
Now you don't have nowhere else to go

Stop complaining ...

Here it comes
Here it comes
Here it comes
Back to me

From the other side ...

I dozed off and thought I was probably dreaming
Something must have thrown me on the floor

Stop complaining ...

Suddenly my girlfriend started screaming
I knew this had never happened before

Stop complaining ...

Here it comes ...

Surprise Surprise
Surprise Surprise
Surprise Surprise
Surprise Surprise

From the other side ...

Stop complaining ...


43.Like That

Its the end of the rainbow
Its the end of us all
Its the end of our feeling
Our reason to fall - none at all

Open your eyes love
Reveal a disguise
You words have no meaning
All rise
All them lies

And I try to hide
Yes I try to hide

under the sunlight
Away from the wall
Left with his hands tied
The curse of it all

Walking with me now
Hang on to them all
Its the end of our feeling
No reason to crawl - none at all

Said he didn't like it - but he liked it like that
Said he didn't like it - but he liked it like that
Said he didn't like it - but he liked it like that
Said he didn't like it - but he liked it like that


44.Listening In

I was sitting on my own
No one rang so I picked up the phone
Then I heard your voice
I was listening in

You were talking in the hall
I wasn't there but I heard it all
Nothing I could do
Just listening in

On the carpet you're so small
Who had you covered wall to wall
Nothing I could do
Just listening in

Now you're gone any your line's dead
Nothing I can do instead
No more - no more
No more listening in


45.Love Before Romance

She sends me underground
When it shard to take the strain
She sends me underground
When it feels like its going to rain

Where's the love
Where's the love
Where's the love

I'm wholly high in the darkest night
When suddenly I have to stop
She sends me underground
With the habits that she makes me drop
Love before romance


46.Love Parade

My heart's lost since you've been gone
But you're not the guilty one
I'll go back and pick another girl again
Close my eyes cos I know that they're all the same

At the love parade
At the love parade
At the love parade
At the love parade

We were lovers from the start
What's the point of it - What's the point of our love ?
But since then we've grown apart
What's the point of it - What's the point of our love ?
Nothing now can make us lovers and we know
What's the point of it - What's the point of our love ?
So the two of us are going to see just what's on show
What's the point of it - What's the point of it ?

At the love parade ...

It takes its time passing by
And gives a chance for the loving eye
So see a face and let the body try
To get them moving side by side

We were lovers from the start ...


47.Luxury

If I was having such a good time
It wasn't really that much fun
A counterfeit conspiracy
That's suddenly gone wrong

So come on - come on
You're a luxury
A peculiar luxury
It always breaks my heart
You can keep your mystery
It doesn't mean a thing to me

Painted lips and l'oreal
Are broadcast in the dark
A necessary cover up
That's finally left its mark

So come on ...

Your sneaky little schemes that show
The wolf's still at your door
A vicious little paragon
Of what you were before

So come on ...


48.Male Model

When I was young I never wanted toys
Things like that were for little boys
My mama bought me clothes for her favorite son
Freeman's, item A, page 61

I wanna wanna be a male model
I wanna wanna be a male model
I wanna wanna be a model, model

I read women's magazines for fashion sense
But seeing all the prices there in pounds and pence
Reminds me that I can't afford to buy new clothes
I never got a chance to say, 'I'll take those'

I wanna wanna be a male model
I wanna wanna be a male model
I wanna wanna be a model, a model

I'm fed up of wearing things second hand
The coat that once belonged to another man
Trousers that went out of style years ago
Anything cheap, I don't wanna know

I wanna wanna be a male model
I wanna wanna be a male model
I wanna wanna be a model, a model

I wanna wanna be a male model
I wanna wanna be a male model
I wanna wanna be a model, a model

Model, model


49.Mars Bars

I need a Mars Bar
Hey raid the Spa
To help me through the day
I need a Mars Bar
I've had total fun
It helps me - makes me - work rest and play
It helps me - makes me - work rest and play

I never eat my dinner
I push away the plate
You can see I'm getting thinner
Because I just can't wait

To get my Mars Bar
Hey raid the Spar ...

To Patrick Moore and David Bowie
And all the other stars
There's evidence here to show
That there's life on Mars

I need a ...

There's glucose for energy
Caramel for strength
The chocolate's only there
To keep it the right length

I need a ...

To anybody out there who still eats Twix ?
Anybody on packets of Buttons ?
I gave them up when I was six
I hope your teeth are rotten

I need a ...

Work - rest and play


50.More Songs About Chocolate And Girls

Its not that urgent wanting some attention
Our teenage dreams are surely worth a mention

Cos here's more songs about chocolate and girls
Its not so easy but it will be heard
A lot less time but a lot more care
So here's more songs about chocolate and girls

Sit down - relax and cancel all other engagements
Its never too late to enjoy dumb entertainment

Cos here's more songs ...

Boys will be boys and they've done all they can do
So just let's dance and the rest is up to you


51.My Perfect Cousin

Now I've got a cousin called Kevin
He's sure to go to heaven
Always spotless clean and neat
The smoothest you can get them
He's got a fur lined sheepskin jacket
My ma said they cost a packet
She won't even let me explain
That me and Kevin were just not the same

Oh my perfect cousin
What I like to do he doesn't
He's his family's private joy
His mothers little golden boy

He's gotta degree in economics
Maths - physics and bionics
He thinks that I'm a cabbage
Cos I hate university challenge
Even at the age of ten
Smart boy Kevin was a smart boy then
He always beat me at Subbuteo
Cos he flicked the kick
And I didn't know

Oh my perfect cousin ..

His mother bought him a synthesizer
Got the Human League into advise her
Now he's making lots of noise
Playing along with the art school boys
Girls try to attract his attention
But what a shame it's in vain total rejection
He will never be left on the shelf
Cos Kevin he's in love with himself

Oh my perfect cousin ...


52.Nine Times Out Of Ten

One day in the week's enough
Nine times out of ten
What can you do when your stuck in love ?
Nine times out of ten

Nine times out of ten
Nine times out of ten

Sometimes I can't always be alright
Nine times out of ten
Sometimes it stays stuck all night
Nine times out of ten

Nine times out of ten ...


53.No Fun

by Iggy Pop

No fun - my babe - no fun

No fun to hang around
Feelin' that same old way
No fun to hang around
Freak out for another day

No fun - my babe - no fun

No fun to be alone
Walkin' by myself
No fun to be alone
In love with nobody else

Well maybe go out
Maybe stay home
Maybe call mom on the telephone
Well come on - come on...

No fun to be alone
Hang on - don't you let me go
No fun to be alone
I said be alone - said be alone

No fun

Well I say - well I say come on Riley
I say...


54.One Way Love

She's got so hard to talk to
Though he can't forget her name
She's some to hold on to
But he's not whose to blame

One way love - one way love
One way love - one way love
One way love - one way love
Getting so tired of - one way love

She wishes he was older
Then she wouldn't feel so bad
She knows she has to tell him
Even though it'll make him sad

One way love ...

She know she doesn't love him
And there's nothing he can do
She knows she has to tell him
She has to say they're through

One way love ...


55.Really Really

I really really love her
It wasn't hard to do

I really ...

She has to be the one
No one else could be such fun
The little things that make her nice
She's gonna stay with me all the time

I really ...

Now I know what it means
To always have you in my dreams
I don't know why you happened to me
This is the way its got to be


56.Rock And Roll

Can you still recall
In the jukebox hall
Where the music played ?
And the world spun round
To a brand new sound
In those far off days
In their blue suede shoes
They would scream and shout
Sing the blues
And let it all hang out

Rock And Roll - Hey - Rock And Roll
Rock And Roll - Rock - Rock and Roll

Little Queenie bopped out
Of the high school hop
Dancing to this beat
With the US mail
In a pony tail
With a look such sweet
The times are changing fast
And we all know that
Sooner or later we'll be rocking yeah

Rock And Roll ...


57.Save Me

Now I have cried a river since the day you said goodbye
And if you don't come back I'm going to drown in the tears I cry

Save me - save me
Save me - save me
Come on and save me
I need you so

Like falling off a mountain slope I'm sinking down so fast
Clinging to a twig of hope that this separation won't last

Save me - save me
oh why don't you save me
Its up to you to save me
I need you so

Without you here beside me I'm only half alive
Stay away from me any longer and I can't survive

save me ...


58.See That Girl

I wake up screaming in the middle of something wrong
I'm always waiting for a taxi just to take me back home

It really doesn't make much difference
Everything I say makes no sense
I'm happy just as long as I can see that girl
Bop a dad a da a da

So boys will be boys when they haven't got nothing to do
You're flawed I'm bored naive we haven't a clue

It really ...

I wake up screaming in the middle of something wrong


59.She Can Only Say No

I got to find a way to face the day
Got no time to hesitate
No more hanging around the door
Cos she can only say no

No boy has gone ahead and asked her straight
I don't have the time to wait
Don't know what I'm supposed to say
Though she can only say no

She can only say no - no - no

No boy has ...

Does she like you or something ?


60.She's A Runaround

She doesn't know what she's feeling inside
She'll never get what she's never had
She wants to leave home but she can't get away
Always on her own every single day

Cos she's a run-around - what a total disaster
She's a run-around - she's got nothing to do
She's a run-around - doesn't know what she's after
She's a run-around - she hasn't a clue

She wishes she could live in a world of her own
Go someplace where she's not known
There's no more her to do any good
Can't get the satisfaction she wishes she could

Cos she's a run-around ...

She doesn't know what she's feeling inside ...

Cos she's a run-around ...


61.Sigh And Explode

How can I know that a woman spells danger
How can I know that a stranger's getting stranger
pretend and ignore it for my own satisfaction
But sooner or later I'll just sigh & explode - sigh & explode

How can I say when the voice starts expanding
What can I see now my eyes are getting dimmer
The reason I never took control of these reactions
Cos sooner or later I'll just sigh & explode - sigh & explode

How do I know if it nerves that are just like
How do I know when to end the silly chit chat
maybe its because I demand some attention
But sooner or later I'll just sigh & explode - sigh & explode

Could it be me that got myself in this condition
What can I do to stop all these hallucinations
Maybe its because of a stupid superstition
But sooner or later I'll just sigh & explode - sigh & explode

My head's going round and round
I'm getting very dizzy can't keep up with this noise
My feet swept off the ground better pick myself up before I
drown
My head's going round and round better pick myself up

Sigh & explode


62.Smarter Than You

I'm a little intellectual
Some one who knows it all
I could be your summer special
You could be my New York doll - my doll

I'm a little ...

Smarter than you
Smarter than you
Smarter than you
Can't you see I'm

Smarter ...

I met you we talk a little
Find you fascinating by five past ten
I kiss you and call you later
Cos I want to see you again - you again

Smarter ...

Can't you see I'm smart


63.Soul Seven

in a library of fools
Where spectators hang their sense
Its alright - its alright - yeah

In abeyance with the rules
The only sound is from the books they read
And its alright - its alright - yeah

A tide of emotion that's supposed to show
If you surrender to me

At the tiny corporation
That's made of blood - sweat and tears
Its alright - its alright - yeah

They cover every complication
That happens every year
And its alright - its alright - yeah

A tide of emotion ...


64.Tearproof

She's a girl in a million
And does what a million girls do
Every so slightly
Finger tipped tightly to

Tearproof - tearproof

First in the phone book
Who looks such nice girl now
Magazine madness
Guaranteed to show you how

Tearproof - tearproof

What ever you fancy
A borderline case took down
An American hostess
Don't take a chance to be around

Tearproof - tearproof


65.Teenage Kicks

A teenage dream's so hard to beat
Every time she walks down the street
Another girl in the neighborhood
Wish she was mine, she looks so good

I wanna hold her, wanna hold her tight
Get teenage kicks right through the night

I'm gonna call her on the telephone
Have her over 'cause I'm all alone
I need excitement, oh, I need it bad
And it's the best I've ever had

I wanna hold her, wanna hold her tight
Get teenage kicks right through the night
Alright

A teenage dream's so hard to beat
Every time she walks down the street
Another girl in the neighborhood
Wish she was mine, she looks so good

I wanna hold her, wanna hold her tight
Get teenage kicks right through the night

I'm gonna call her on the telephone
Have her over 'cause I'm all alone
I need excitement, oh I need it bad
And it's the best I've ever had

I wanna hold her, wanna hold her tight
Get teenage kicks right through the night
Alright

I wanna hold her, wanna hold her tight
Get teenage kicks right through the night
Alright


66.The Positive Touch

She can't slow down maniac depression
Everybody gets called once in a while
She's even breaking down at the supermarket

It takes a positive touch
It takes a positive touch

Nervous tears of crying attention
Money lights inside her head
Breaking dreaming some distraction

It takes ...

She's screaming
In the night
There's no one to help her
There's no one to turn on the light

She's screaming ...

What she thought was strange was fascination
Yesterday it rained all day long
She can't slow down maniac depression

It takes the positive touch
It takes the positive touch
It takes the positive touch


67.There Goes Norman

Oh watch a man - there goes Norman
He'll get you if he can - there goes Norman
He's always hiding in the dark
Be sure to wander past the park at night

Oh what a surprise - there goes Norman
He'll poke out your eyes - there goes Norman
he never let's himself be heard
Too busy running after girls at night

There goes Norman
There goes Norman

Mother tell me what can I do ?
The girls are laughing they're very cruel
Don't worry Norman your time'll come
And you can mean them and bring them home

He's out to night - there goes Norman
He'll slain tonight - there goes Norman
meanwhile the cops are on the heat
Cos Norman's waiting in the street tonight

There goes Norman ..


68.The Sin Of Pride

The sin of pride keeps me from walking away - don't walk away
To join the lines of gods who think of nothing to say - think
what to say

The talk of war won't scare my intentions away - don't walk away
But talk of love and kiss these ribbons today - think what to
say

The cost of love might make these presents seem small - don't
walk away
But with the thoughts inside that wouldn't matter at all - think
what to say

And I've lost all my friends to be yours
But pride'll still meet me I'm sure
And stop me from feeling so hurt

Pride'll still meet
Wanting my love - come closer love
To want me - come closer love
Keeping that love - come closer love
Just for me - come closer love

I've lost ...

The sin of pride keeps me from walking away - don't walk away
But keeps inside the things I wanted to say - think what to say

A look of love leads me from hate to despair - don't walk away
I look at love it says I shouldn't be there - think what to say

So she goes again


69.The Way Girls Talk

I've never kissed a girl before
Too shy to go outside the door
Ah who cares what right
I want to know what they're doing to night

Can't - listen to the way girls talk
Can't - listen to the way girls talk
Can't - listen to the way girls talk
Talk
Have you seen the way she looks at him
I don't believe the state they're in
Ah we don't have time
To fun of what we can fight

Can't ...

The boys said shout
The boys said shout
The boys said shout
The boys said shout

I hear she's going steady is she alright ?
I see she's got some other date tonight
Ah who cares what wrong
We always seem to hurt someone

Can't ...


70.Top Twenty

Talking on the telephone
The boys won't leave the girls alone
So what are you gonna do now ? hey hey hey

Top - top twenty - oh no
Top - top twenty - oh no
Top - top twenty - oh no

Take you for another ride
Its hard attempting suicide
And everything's ok - hey hey hey

Top ...

Can't get the things we want
Cos all the girls can do is taunt
Say what are we gonna do now ? hey hey hey

Top ...

Hey hey hey

I can't get no satisfaction
All I want is easy action baby

Hey hey hey


71.True Confessions

Don't look so surprised
You've been telling me lies
True - true - true - confessions

Its hard to wake up to your makeup
So let's take off that disguise
True - true - true - confessions

Let's sit down and sort this out
Its not so hard to talk about
True - true - true - confessions

I got a picture from your sister
There was writing on the back
True - true - true - confessions


72.Turning Blue

Heavenly eyes
That smiled on me
A tender kiss that had to be
Always - always
The same - the same
Look whose falling in love again
The night isn't angry with me

Our beating hearts
Two distant stars
A lovely way to say we are
No need - no need
Too far - too far
A lesson in love JUST isn't t love enough
The night isn't angry with me

And it suddenly sounds
Like it always comes
As Monday creeps up on you
A perfect day for someone turning blue

Heavenly eyes
That smiled on me
The sweetest thing that's ever been

Always - always
The same - the same
Look whose falling in love


73.Under The Boardwalk

by ?

When the suns comes up
And melts the tar up on the roofs
And your shoes get so hot
You wish your tired feet were fireproof

Under the boardwalk
Down by the sea
On a blanket with my baby is where I'll be

Under the boardwalk - Out of the sun
Under the boardwalk - We'll be having some fun
Under the boardwalk - People walking about
Under the boardwalk - We'll be falling in love
Under the boardwalk - Boardwalk

In the park you hear
The happy sound of the carousels
We can almost taste the hotdogs
French fries they sell

Under the boardwalk ...


74.Untouchable

I can't deny these foolish hands of mine
Have towed me in the dark
A collision course that has hit the rocks
Has now pierced my heart
I'm stricken down by deceptive moves
What's meant is meant to be
Who'd try console a losing side
When that losing side is me

So now I'll go step out of line
The untouchable is a touch too fine
A crazy lust that strips me bare
A tarnished whim that just will not wear

I've witnessed sin that made me swallow deep
And haunt me till I'm dead
A silent voice that only speaks the truth
Is gagged and bound instead


75.Valentine's Treatment

If hate's a pleasure
Then the well meaning isn't meant
Valentine's treatment can make is all seem heaven sent

Tempting - tempting - to keep it all a secret
Tempting - tempting - but you know love's the treatment
I only wish it was mine

If he's playing cowboys or she's acting old
Valentine's treatment can break pathetic moulds

Take that boy who hates himself and can't wait to be sold
Valentine's treatment can cure that twisted soul

And love's a good word
Til spread around like so much lies
It takes that treatment to rediscover the surprise.


76.Wednesday Week

Here she comes to say good night
I'll get no sleep tonight
With a constant vision she still can see
She was the girl for me

Wednesday week - she loved me
Wednesday week - never happened at all

There she goes I want to see her again
She's gone to school with her best friend
She only does the things she likes to do
Now she wants something new

Wednesday week ...

Here she comes ...

Wednesday week ...


77.What's With Terry?

We begin the sad tale when Terry was young
When Enid Blyton proved lots of fun
But his vision didn't dim his adventurous nights
He read the Secret Seven under artificial lights

Oh dear what's with Terry
Oh dear its not right
The local girls are not so pretty
But they all look the same through Terry's sight

Then came the day Terry always did dread
Christmas had come a present lay on his bed
A Johnny 7 or a cuddly toy ?
No harm them glasses fit for a boy

Oh dear what's ...

Wearing glasses never became the craze
So the years they passed in a hazy daze
Even at matches he'd shout and roar
Pretending he'd seen another George Best goal

Being Joe 90 has proved a success
But he's no Clark Gable never the less
They found the answer to this classic case
It wasn't the glasses its his horrible face

Oh dear what's ...


78.When Saturday Comes

Hear your mother on the telephone
Partying people happy people home
Everywhere there's sceptic magazines
Shooting different colour jelly beans

Anyday of the week - when Saturday comes
Anyday of the week - she's almost gone

Hiding pictures of her takeaway
Only laughing on a Saturday
Tomorrow's Sunday - special radio
Warning her the dangers long ago

Anyday of the week ...

Such an independent girl
Think you've got what it takes
If you won't sit down next to me
Girl that's my mistake

Teenage bop form a nervous holiday
Attracting lips form a hidden stowaway
Telegram go gos got to yesterday
Shocking tears will never go away

Anyday of the week ...


79.White Heat

by Lou Reed

White light gonna drive me out of my brain
White light gonna make me feel so insane
White heat White shapin' them down to my toes
White light's got it now - goodness knows

White light gonna drive me out of my mind
White light's surely gonna make me blind
White heat - White shaping way down to my toes
White light could kill me now - goodness knows

Oh - Oh - White light
Oh - Oh - White light
Oh - Oh - White heat
Oh - Oh - White heat

White light's a-flashing

White light
Still feels right
What's that sound - what's that sound
Don't turn on - be dead or alive
No feeling
Here she comes
Oww - yeah


80.Whizz Kids

A financial romance
Got what you wanted took your chance
So here we go again
These whizz kids will never end

Never - Never - they sit alone
We're together - with lots of your own
Nether - nether - second to none
Whizz kids - whizz kids - whizz kids - whizz kids

So now you've reached the top
Sweet success is all you've got
Well holidays don't last long
Enjoy it now before its gone

Never - Never ...


81.Window Shopping For New Clothes

Intuition tells me
About the kind of clothes I should wear
But intuition won't help me
To become a self made millionaire

There's always someone on the phone
Getting stupid undone
Wants to know what can't be go
I don't care

Never say your sorry
Let science turn your head
Cos when you start to worry
Then you're better off being dead

Intuition tells me
Of the ways I can cut my hair
But intuition can't help me
Because its seldom there


82.Wrong Way

Stop treating me this way girl
Cos you know I meant no harm
Is this the way you wanted to be now
My head's going round and round

I can't understand the way things are
This is the wrong way
You will have to change someday


83.You're Welcome

Sad girls - Such an unusual attraction
Sad girls - Home come you look so hurt ?

Always locked up in my room
Disguising my faces in the gloom
Hiding like a millionaire
Safely out of site when I'm in there

You're welcome
You're welcome

Cause all sorts of problems when I'm out
No one has the brains to keep me out
Sane as anybody in this place
Counting all the cracks that's in my face

You're welcome ...

Sad girls ...


84.You Stand So Close

If its a fact some thing won't ever change
Will your super V's remain the same

I don't care if you won't care
You stand so close - but you're never there

You break my heart but you confess you do
So who can I send the pieces to

I don't care ...

You deliberately made a fool of me
You gave no excuse so what's the use of you
I know you won't wait cos its always too late
I know you won't wait for me to return
It takes more or less that's made of us

With piety must we pretend
What could be has gone again

I don't care ...

If I've been good you never tell me so
With love like that I'll never know

I don't care ...


85.You've Got My Number

You've got my number
Why don't you use it
You know my name
You won't abuse it

If you wanna wanna wanna wanna
Wanna have someone to talk to

I'll pick you up
In my car
Take you home
Its not far

If you wanna ...
Do it - do it - do it - do it

Why don't you ring my number ?
Why don't you ring my number now ?

Let's say goodbye
I couldn't stand it
You've got my number
Why don't you use it ?
