Only The Names Have Been Changed

Kelly Jones Only The Names Have Been Changed Lyrics
1.Suzy

I used to watch you sing
Underneath the sun
Until I passed out
You came to rescue me
So I came to believe
You were my remedy

I love to watch you swim
We'd drink at night in the water
Moonlight on our skin
We never said goodbye
Do you think we should have
Or is it better this way?

So bye bye little Suzy
Never wanted to use you
I had to get on home
So bye bye little Suzy
Never wanted to lose you
And leave this all alone

We float down on the beach
Underneath the stars
And dance in the sand
I left you sleeping that night
I don't wanna wake you
So we'd always be right

I love to watch you swim
We'd drink at night in the water
Moonlight on our skin
We never said goodbye
Do you think we should have
Or is it better this way?

So bye bye little Suzy
Don't say I use you
I had to get on home
So bye bye little Suzy
Never wanted to lose you
And leave this all alone

Bye bye ...


2.Rosie

Rosie helped the kids stay alive
She gave them the drugs so they didn't die
She cleaned up their mess as they wept and they moaned
She got paid so little, she rented her home

An angel face with the strength of a tower
Worked every day, every minute, every hour
When she wasn't on the ward
She was travelling on the train
Through the wind and the sun,
and the snow and the rain

Oh Rosie, we thank you again


Oh Rosie, we thank you again

Works all day, no time to eat
Running back 'n fore to help children see
We piss up a wall, all the poison we take
She barely gets out, not to dine or to drink

I tip my hat to the angels on the ward
You're in my heart with love forever more
I thank you now for saving my girl
And bringing her back to her own little world

Oh Rosie, we thank you again


3.Liberty

Liberty wanted to come with me
She'd never been there before
She came close a few times
But now she needed some more

Liberty let her man go
He didn't give her the stars
She stopped laying beside him
And stayed out late in the bars

Won't you come with me, Liberty?

Liberty was drunk when she met me
I liked the look on her face
Then she took a punch for me
Her gloves were made out of lace

Liberty came with me
To the places she wanted to go
Every night that she's with me
She always wanted more

Won't you come with me, Liberty?

You taste of freedom
Freedom's your name
You'll always be with me
In my soul


4.Katie

Katie got a ride home
She couldn't afford the fare
She offered the taxi driver
Her body then and there

The driver took advantage
The cab was dark and cold
Katie got her kicks that way
Searching for her soul

They'd say: 'Oh no, Katie'
They'd say: 'Shame on you'
You'd say: 'What's your problem?
It's what I like to do!'

They'd say: 'Oh no, Katie'
They'd say: 'Shame on you'
You'd say: 'What's your problem?
It's what I like to do!'


The night was dark in town
And the driver sweat and moaned
Katie looked over his shoulder
And faked her pleasure groans

Katie stepped into the cold street
The rain was pouring down
She opened up her battered door
In this dirty town

They'd say: 'Oh no, Katie'
They'd say: 'Shame on you'
You'd say: 'What's your problem?
It's what I like to do!'
They'd say: 'Oh no, Katie'
They'd say: 'Shame on you'
You'd say: 'What's your problem?
It's what I like to do!'


5.Violet

There's a killer on the loose
More blood on the street
Violet sells her body
To make money to eat

Well, Violet's just a girl
And she ran away from home
She fell out with her daddy
Now she's living all alone

Violet, who done it?

At the end of the night
Violet walks the streets
She picks up all the guys
To make her ends meet

Saturday came around
The killer made his make
She got into his car
Now the coppers are dragging the lake

Violet, whodunit?


6.Jayne

She took herself out in the car
She drove herself around the block
She said she's leaving me again
Then she got lost

I look for her out on the porch
I want to see her face once more
She said she's leaving me again
Then she got lost

She took the midnight train to nowhere
She said that she was leaving home
Yeah, she's leaving me tomorrow
But tomorrow never came for Jayne


I wait for her now and then
I hope to see her round the bend
She said she's leaving me again
Then she got lost

She took the midnight train to nowhere
She said that she was leaving home
Yeah, she's leaving me tomorrow
But tomorrow never came for Jayne


7.Misty

Hey Misty, what's on your mind?
You look miles away
You can't find your smile?

Hey Misty, you getting jealous again?
Your man's going out
Yet you're still stuck in

Hey Misty, your mind's racing round
You're thinking the worst
What could be going down

Hey Misty, gotta let it all go
Or it will drag you down
And bury you in a hole


8.Emily

Emily worked at the diamond store
She wanted all the rings that she couldn't afford
One long day
A tall man came
Asked her to marry him
And he bought her a ring

He whisked her off to the seven seas
Wined and dined her till she could barely see
One long night the tall man came home
To find Emily in bed with the hotel boy

Emily, what have you done?
It's all come undone
Tell me who lost and who won


Caught in bed with another man's girl
Not just screwing, they were kissing as they moaned
One long knife, the tall man drew
And he stuck the hotel boy cold right through

Cops came along as Emily wept
As they took away all of her fancy things
One long lie the tall man heard
So he took back the ring,
before they took him to jail

Emily, what have you done?
It's all come undone
Tell me who lost and who won

Emily, what have you done?
Tell me who lost and who won
It's all come undone


9.Jean

Jean take me down
Just take me to your place
And do what you do to me
Take me to the place you wanna go
Now that you've been there
I've seen it. I've been it.
I'd mean it
I don't know where you're going

Long lost in your mind
It's up to you
Do what ya do to you
You don't know
what's right or in your mind
But now it's time to
find a reason to be here
And work out the reasons before you die

Pick yourself up now and walk the road
You don't know where you're supposed to go
But now it's time you take a look
I know you don't know if you
Mean it, or seen it,
to feel the reason in your mind

Pick yourself up off the dirty floor
You've got to be there, don't you know?
Now it's your time to open up
And yeah, you seen me down
I'll be there, and see ya
and now you gotta open up your eyes

Now you got a reason
to be here and see it
the reason for your die

Jean take me down
Just take me to your place
And do what you do to me
Take me to the place you wanna go
Now that you've been there
I've seen it. I've been it.
I'd mean it
I don't know where you're going

Pick yourself up now and walk the road
You don't know where you're supposed to go
But now it's time you take a look
I know you don't know if you
Mean it, or seen it,
to feel the reason in your mind

Pick yourself up off the dirty floor
You've got to be there, don't you know?
Now it's your time to open up
And yeah, you seen me down
I'll be there, and see ya
and now you gotta open up your eyes

Now you got a reason
to be here and see it
the reason for your die
before you die

Now you got a reason
to be here and see it
before you even die

before you die


10.Summer

Gliding birds wings
Watch them fly
Diving down and
Climbing high

Shooting stars fly
Through my sky
Ripe black cherries
Taste like wine

Then I feel like lying down so still
Making shapes from clouds in the sky with you

Water drops from hoeny dew
Decreasing circles
From stones I threw
Greasy skin shines in the sun
Today's the day
And you're the one

Then I feel like lying down so still
Making shapes from clouds in the sky with you

And when the sun has gone away
And I feel I wanna stay

I taste a raindrop in my mouth
I pick you up and the sky comes down

Then I feel like lying down so still
Making shapes from clouds in the sky with you
