1.Maniac
I did get your message.
I just can't believe you're doing this.
What is wrong with you?
I told you, it's over. i am not coming back.
More importantly, i just don't love you any more.
Can't you get that into your head?
And when i made that stupid oath
About how i was going to
Pay for someone to kill you both
It was just my way of showing you
That i wasn't playing
Oh yeah, you're right, i sounded like a maniac
But that's just what i am saying
You'll only see how much i've changed, if you come back
And when i threw out all your books
You know that wasn't planned
I know how terrible it looks
But you got to understand
It's just that they'd remind me
Of sleepy days and sleepless nights i spent with you
I tried to put it all behind me
I didn't realise how much i'm still in love with you
Oh please can't you drop this stance
And maybe give me one more chance
Just say what you want from me
Because, oh, i'd do anything to bring you back home
Oh yeah, anything, just pick up the 'phone
Everyone thinks that i look thin
Oh but i don't mind them
But these insects crawling on my skin
Why can i never find them?
The thought of you two screwing
Has turned me into some kind of a maniac
I really don't know what i'm doing
You'll only see how much i've changed, if you come back
Oh please can't you drop this stance
And maybe give me one more chance
Just say what you want from me
Because, oh, i'd do anything to bring you back home
Oh yeah, anything, just pick up the 'phone
I'd do anything to bring you back home
Oh yeah, anything, just pick up the 'phone
2.Comedienne
You know that i've had my suspicions all along
Well would you be here now, if something wasn't wrong?
Your heart broke, and you still joke
Because you're such a comedienne
But that creep made you weep
Don't laugh it off again
Oh just forget the things he said
And get into bed
He never loved you and deep down you know i'm right
If you don't want to go back home just stay the night
Oh i'm not joking
Because you're the comedienne
No i mean it, i've seen it
And now i want to see you smile again
Oh just forget the things he said
And get into bed
You want to leave him and you're looking for excuses
That's why you're here, i guess us old friends have our uses
But we could, oh we should
Lie down here, you won't regret it
Stay near me, do you hear me?
Oh, i'm sincere, now come and get it
Oh just forget the things he said
And get into bed
3.Hate
I'm glad you agree you've got so many things to say sorry for
But listen to me because i'm not going to take it all anymore
There was a time, don't ask me when, it made sense, somehow
But, darling i'm just so glad that i can see clearly now
Because i hate your lies and the guys you call friends
In fact just everything's telling me this is where the love
affair ends
I should say good bye but i don't think i will, it might slow
you down
Oh you'll get by, just start a new life, in some other town
Oh please don't cling, take whatever you want, oh yeah, i'll
agree
To anything that keeps you a long way away from me
Because i hate your style and your smile, and i regret
That almost everything about you makes me wish that we'd never
met
We are just so wrong for each other
That it's hard for me to understand
How i ever wanted you for a lover
I hate your country, your continent and
I hate your lies and the guys you call friends
In fact just everything is telling me this is where the love
affair ends
I hate your style and your smile, and i regret
That almost everything about you makes me wish that we'd never
met
4.Kerry, Kerry
Well at least can't you
Look at me when i'm speaking to you?
Because there are things i've got to say
Well what was he sneaking to you
When you thought i'd looked away?
I get it, i get it
Now i understand just what you're playing
I get it, i get it
I guess there isn't any point delaying
You would rather that i wasn't here
You don't have to say a word, it's crystal clear
You bought him presents with my money
That makes me feel just great, although
I've got to say that it is kind of funny
That you could think i'd never know
I get it, i get it
It was just another way of saying
I get it, i get it
That you really didn't want me staying
Oh i bet you just wish that i'd disappear
You don't have to say a word, it's crystal clear
Lying in my bed
You remember when
It was you who said
That we'd never be apart again
But now the longer that i hang around
The more anxious that you get
Oh it looks like romeo has found
A nervous juliet
Because you would rather that i wasn't here
You don't have to say a word, it's crystal clear
Oh i bet you just wish that i'd disappear
You don't have to say a word, it's crystal clear
5.Barefoot In The Park
That smile on your face as you awake
Oh, it just makes my heart ache
Let's lie all day here in the dark
And watch 'barefoot in the park'
And it's because you're so sublime
That i think about you all the time
Don't ask me if it's true
Because how could anybody not love you?
You open my lips with your thumb
You know i will succumb
When you shave my skin i don't feel pain
And i just can't explain
How it's because you're so sublime
That i think about you all the time
Don't ask me if it's true
Because how could anybody not love you?
And the world before i met you
I can't remember now, what was that like?
Because you, you're so beautiful
Just hold your body close to mine
Oh that feels so divine
You're every single dream i've had come true
I'm so glad i found you
Yes it's because you're just sublime
That i think about you all the time
Don't ask me if it's true
Because how could anybody not love you?
And the world before i met you
I can't remember now, what was that like?
Because you, you're so beautiful
There is no part of you that i dislike
Oh what would i do without you?
6.You Turn Me On
I saw you staring, i pretended not to care
You left your hirsute presence hanging in the air
I didn't want to fall in love but now i think you've changed my
mind
Yeah, there was someone, but that was years ago
She was positively charming but i had to let her go
She needed to be adored and i didn't feel inclined
There's no way, since then that i've ever wanted anyone
To stay again, oh, but you just really turn me on
And i can't take my eyes off you tonight
And if you asked me to make love to you, i might
Because nobody's ever made me feel like this before
It's disconcerting, it's becoming quite surreal
There is no point in asking because i don't know how i feel
But i'm sure that this is something too good to ignore
There's no way, since then that i've ever wanted anyone
To stay again, but now suddenly those thoughts have gone
There's no way, since then that i've ever wanted anyone
To stay again, oh, but you just really turn me on
There's no way, since then that i've ever wanted anyone
To stay again, but now suddenly those thoughts have gone
7.Ears
(his)
Gone as far as i can go with this crap
I've not come here just to
Watch him lie
With his head in your lap
Well, at least not there, oh must you?
I've gone as far as
I can go with this crap
I've not come here just to
Watch him lie
With his head in your lap
Well, at least not there
When you started to screw, i knew
I should have run away
Because i could hear it all through the wall
But i just had to stay
Every laugh, every cry, every sigh
Oh i can't face
The way i've behaved, but i just craved
To be in his place
I told him when we met
I told him i was afraid
That you'd just play with him
But i won't forget
Those sounds that you made
Behind that door with him
I told him when we met i
Told him i was afraid
That you'd just play with him
But i won't forget
Those sounds that you made
Behind that door
When you started to screw,
I knew i should have run away
Because i could hear it all through the wall
But i just had to stay
Every laugh, every cry, every sigh
Oh i can't face
The way i've behaved, but i just craved
To be in his place
(hers)
But this is all your fault
We made a solemn promise
You said: 'let's be adult'
'there's no point running from it'
But this is all your fault
We made a solemn promise
You said: 'let's be adult'
'there's no point running from it'
8.Me Next
I was too scared to phone
In case you weren't alone
So i called up your best friend instead
Because i had to know
Oh, and when i asked her
If you two were
Still living together, she said:
'i don't think so'
And please don't think that i'm suggesting you're over-sexed
But if he's really gone
Oh please, can i be the next?
Let me be the next
And if you really knew
How much i'd worshipped you
Right from the first time we spoke
Would you have relented?
But all those looks we'd share
When he wasn't there
Do you think that was all just a joke?
Oh well i meant it
And please don't think that i'm suggesting you're over-sexed
But if he's really gone
Oh please, can i be the next?
Let me be the next
Please, can i be the next?
Let me be the next
Please, can i be the next?
Let me be the next
9.Hard, Fast And Beautiful
And guess what i found
It's a letter that i started writing
When you walked out
It says that i won't miss you
Because i've met someone who's more exciting
But that wasn't true
So how did i lose you?
The last thing you ever wanted to do was to hurt me
But i'd still accuse you
And i couldn't know
I'd never feel the same way with another
So i let you go
Yeah, i've got a girlfriend
She's beautiful, considerate and yes, i do love her
But i'm not going to pretend
That she's ever going to be the one
Because now i know that it was you all the time
How could i ever think it wasn't true?
Now i've stopped trying to tell myself that i've
Grown out of being in love with you
And deep in the night
I lie awake and think about you
Of course it's not right
But what can i do?
I can't sleep in this bed without you
If you only knew
Yeah, i've got a girlfriend
She's beautiful, considerate and yes, i do love her
But i'm not going to pretend
That she's ever going to be the one
Because now i know that it was you all the time
How could i ever think it wasn't true?
So now i've stopped trying to tell myself that i've
Grown out of being in love with you
Now i know that it was you all the time
How could i ever think it wasn't true?
Now i've stopped trying to tell myself that i've
Grown out of being in love with you
10.Dance, Girl, Dance
I thought that we could just lie here,
But yes i know how you love dancing in that dress
And yes, i love to watch
You soothe away my troubles
But now slide those freshly shaven legs into
The clean cold sheets i've put on just for you
With every single touch
My love for you just doubles
But of course none of this has happened at all, yet
We've not even spoken, but i'll bet
Once you're through my door
You'll want to stay for ever more
Because i will hold you so tight, i'll make you see how
You are the right woman for me now
Just give me a glance
To show me that i've got a chance
All this cavorting is designed to tease
And girl your dancing drives me wild so please
Do it one more time
But make it last forever
Oh how come none of this has happened at all, yet
We've not even spoken, but i'll bet
Once you're through my door
You'll want to stay for ever more
Because i will hold you so tight, i'll make you see how
You are the right woman for me now
Just give me a glance
To show me that i've got a chance
Oh dance, girl, dance
None of this has happened at all, yet
We¹ve not even spoken, but i'll bet
Once you through my door
You¹ll want to stay for ever more
Because i will hold you so tight, i'll make you see how
You are the right woman for me now
Just give me a glance
To show me that i've got a chance
11.Honey Rider
Oh i'm sick of hearing you say
That you can't 'phone because he'll hear you calling
But don't you think the way
That you're treating us both is quite appalling?
Oh, sure, you nearly told him everything
But nearly doesn't mean a thing
I know you don't want to row
Oh but you think you're just so clever
Well, i'm waiting now
But i won't be waiting here forever
Oh, sure, you nearly told him everything
But nearly doesn't mean a thing
And you know full well i'm right
And if you won't say a word, i might
Because you've had thousands of chances
To tell him his romance is
Not exactly what he'd call true
I know the strain that you're under
But i've started to wonder
If one lover is sufficient for you
Oh, sure, you nearly told him everything
But nearly doesn't mean a thing
If you don't talk to him until i force you to, i will
Because you know full well i'm right
And if you won't say a word, i might
Because you've had thousands of chances
To tell him his romance is
Not exactly what he'd call true
I know the strain that you're under
But i've started to wonder
If one lover is sufficient for you
