1.The Professional

Oh I'm back in the full effect ／ I can't even hold myself erect
／ I got nothing that I
wanna say ／ I'm gonna say it anyway ／ I know you think that I've
lost it, baby ／ I know
you think that my star is fading ／ Used to be a contender ／ Now
you're just a pretender
Psychic karaoke every weekend ／ You don't fit those clothes
anymore ／ Why don't you take
them back to the charity store ／ While you're there you could
always hand yourself in
You're into green issues - start recycling ／ You hide behind
your woman when you're out in
your town ／ Show her up and blame her for holding you down ／
Holding you down, holding you
down ／ You're the only one who's holding you down ／ You're only
ever polite when you're
out of your box ／ Cocker's short for... sucker ／ Sucker of... ／
Oh, oh ／ La na na na ／ Oh,
oh ／ Sucker of... ／ Oh, oh ／ La na na na ／ Oh, oh ／ When I got
up today I had that feeling
again ／ Everything was OK, then the world started shaking ／ Now
I'm trying to sleep it
away ／ Oh but I can't sleep it away ／ Can you answer this
question, can you answer it
right： ／ Have you ever done anything good in your life？ ／ Have
you ever done anything that
wasn't just for yourself？ ／ Are you capable of giving？ ／ Are you
capable of giving just
for the sake of it, without expecting anything in return？ ／ I'm
only trying to give you
what you've come to expect ／ Just another song 'bout single
mothers and sex ／ Single
mothers and sex, single mothers and sex ／ Just another song
'bout single mothers and sex
OK, you've heard it before, it's nothing special ／ But it's a
living, can't you see ／ I'm

professional ／ Oh, oh ／ La na na na
／ Oh, oh ／ Sleep on my darling ／ Sleep on, don't wake as I leave
／ I've been rehearsing
this scene so long now ／ Don't interrupt me as I do it for real
／ The bedroom floor is
treacherous ／ A teacup could be disastrous ／ 'Cos it'll mean I
would have to say ／ What
was written on the letter I posted yesterday ／ So that it would
get here ／ When I was gone
／ And you awoke ／ Oh, she'll meet me from the train ／ And she'll
never know a thing
About how I talk with my mouth full ／ And only bath once a week
／ How I'm nicer the first
time you meet me than the next ／ And I'm rapidly losing interest
in sex ／ Yeah, I'm
rapidly losing interest in sex ／ What's the point in making it
over-emotional？ ／ You can
do it the hard way ／ Or you can be a professional ／ Oh, oh ／ La
na na na ／ Oh, oh ／ I'm a
professional ／ Oh, oh ／ La na na na ／ Oh, oh ／ Sleep on my
darling ／ Sleep on my love
Sleep on my darling ／ Sleep on my love ／ Sleep on my darling ／
Sleep on my love ／ Sleep on
my darling ／ Sleep on my love


2.Street Lites

Doorways ／ corners ／ and the street lights dance in your eyes ／
Behind the cinema ／ in the
rain ／ in the subway ／ where the walls crumble and cover you in
fine dust ／ 'cos we
haven't got a home to go to ／ touch me ／ on the back seat, on
the top deck ／ talk dirty
on the back row ／ can you feel me ／ against you？ ／ oh no ／ we
shouldn't ／ we shouldn't
we shouldn't ／ I want to ／ ...mmmm... ／ What you gonna do ／ if
you go home and he's not
there？ ／ it wouldn't be the same if we didn't know it was wrong
／ oh touch me ／ and then
go wherever he takes you ／ oh yeah leave me ／ and I'll walk it
off in the rain somehow
Someone wants to watch by the side of Alena Stores ／ in the
doorway, in the rain ／ Did he
see us？ ／ Do you care？ ／ Pull the night-time tight around us ／
and we can keep each other
warm ／ while the cars drive by ／ en-route to dried-up dinners ／
and strip-lit kitchens and
the smell of gas and potato peelings ／ What you gonna do if you
go home and he's not
there？ ／ it wouldn't be the same if you didn't know it was wrong
／ oh touch me ／ and then
go wherever he takes you ／ oh yeah leave me ／ and I'll walk it
off in the rain somehow
yeah ／ We've got to go on meeting like this ／ I don't want to
live with you or anywhere
near you ／ I want to catch you unawares ／ undressing in front of
a window maybe
impressed with those things I drive by ／ Did you see me？ ／ Could
you tell that I was
watching？ ／ Did it make it feel better？ ／ Yeah, it was good for
me too ／ Did you think
about me？ ／ Oh did you close your eyes？ ／ Think that maybe ／ it
was my hand that was
touching you ／ my breath against your face？ ／ and when you
opened your eyes ／ did the
world tip off its axis for a few seconds？ ／ And you thought
you'd caught a tiny glimpse of
someone？ ／ Something here with it's shoulders moving towards
you？ ／ Yeah I did too ／ and
it felt good ／ and it felt good ／ and it felt good ／ In a
strange kind of way ／ in a way
that things that aren't supposed to feel good ／ sometimes do ／
oh take it away ／ yeah
What you gonna do if you go home and he's not there？ ／ it
wouldn't be the same if you
didn't know it was wrong ／ oh touch me ／ and then go wherever he
takes you ／ oh yeah leave
me ／ and I'll walk it off in the rain somehow ／ What you gonna
do if you go home and he's
not there？ ／ it wouldn't be the same if you didn't know it was
wrong ／ oh touch me ／ and
then go wherever he takes you ／ oh yeah leave me ／ and I'll walk
it off in the rain
somehow.

5.His 'N' Hers

I've got the time ／ and you've got the space ／ I'm gonna wipe
you down ／ and lick the
smile off your face, the smile off your face ／ Though we know
that it's wrong ／ towel sets
／ matching combs ／ Oh it looks so good but does it turn you on？

hers ／ and when I saw his face ／ you know it made me feel
better.


6.Seconds

She ／ she used to live with his brother ／ Now she's an unmarried
mother ／ with another
on the way ／ He's seond rate ／ twisted out of shape ／ and he
looks a state, it costs so
much to look this rough ／ They go to town ／ they like to shop
around ／ and look at all
those things ／ All those things they never wnated anyway ／ She
hates his hair ／ that
stupid coat he wears ／ but sometimes second best ／ is the best
that you can get ／ Oh yes

turn into days ／ but
still it feels like morning ／ The first time leaves its trace ／
and then slides into
second place ／ and still it feels like morning ／ At night they
try to fly ／ hold on tight
and close their eyes ／ and they hit the ground in the morning ／
But in the morning it's
raining ／ Oh Christ you're always complaining ／ can't you think
of something else ／ It's
nearly-nu ／ a bargain basement made for two ／ and if you blur
your eyes ／ you could be
anywhere ／ you want yourself to be ／ Oh yeah, it's bad ／ I know
you want to laugh, so
laugh ／ But sometimes second best ／ Is all that you can get ／ Oh

but still it feels like
morning ／ The first time leaves its trace ／ and then slides into
second place ／ and still
it feels like morning ／ At night they try to fly ／ hold on tight
and close their eyes
and they hit the ground in the morning ／ But you're so perfect
you don't interest me at
all ／ You're golden boy fell down ／ Don't you know ／ he hasn't
got a personality？ ／ And I
know ／ he said he'd last all night then gave you seconds ／ yeah
／ The seconds turn to
hours ／ and the hours turn into days ／ but still it feels like
morning ／ The first time
leaves its trace ／ and then slides into second place ／ and still
it feels like morning
At night they try to fly ／ hold on tight and close their eyes ／
and they hit the ground in
the morning ／ My God they're still alive ／ they got it wrong but
they still tried ／ and
they made it through to the morning.


7.Deep Fried In Kelvin

Oh children of the future ... conceived in the toilets at
Meadowhall ... to be raised on
the cheap cold slabs of garage floors ... rolling empty cans
down the stairway ... (don't
you love that sound？) ... whilst the thoughts of a bad social
worker ran through his head
... trying to remember what he learnt at training college ...
Lester said he wasn't
allowed in here ... so why don't you get lost？ ... and if you
grow up ... then when you
grow up, maybe ... maybe you can live ... live on Kelvin ...
yeah you can live in Kelvin
... on the promenade with the concrete walkways ... where
pidgeons go to die ... (a woman
on the fourteenth floor noticed that the ceiling was bulging as
if under a great weight.
When the council investigated they discovered that the man in
the flat above had
transported a large quantity of soil into his living-room, in
which several plants he had
stolen from a local park were growing. When questioned, the man
said all he wanted was a
garden. When questioned, the man said all he wanted was a
garden.) ... Oh God, I think the
future's been fried ... deep fried in Kelvin ... and now it's
rotting behind the remains
of a stolen motorbike ... I haven't touched it, honest ... but
there isn't anything else
to do ... we don't need your sad attempts at social conscience
based on taxi-rides home at
night when exhibition opens ... we just want your car radio ...
and those Reflux speakers
... now ... suffer the little children to come to me ... and I
will tend their adventure
playground splinters with cigarette burns and feed them fizzy
orange and chips ... and
then they grow up straight and tall ... and then they grow up to
live ... on Kelvin ...
yeah ... we can have ghettos too ... only we use air-rifles
instead of machine-guns ...
stitch that ... and we drunk driving lights ... in the end ...
the question you have to
ask yourself is ... are you talking to me ... or are you chewing
a brick？


8.P.T.A.

I know I'm getting on ／ and you're so very young ／ but would you
like to stay ／ until next
Saturday ／ or Sunday？ ／ I'll give you your own room ／ it's next
door to my room ／ and some
time in the night ／ well, maybe I just might ／ Oh take your
clothes off won't you please？
／ You don't have to talk to me ／ just leave the light on so I
can see ／ You've got
everything I need ／ Oh yeah ／ You know I can't forget ／ that
special night we met ／ at the
local P.T.A. ／ when your mother came to say ／ that you'd been
taking days off school ／ I
turned and looked at you, I said ／ 'Yes, I understand ／ I'm
gonna take this girl in
hand.' ／ Oh take your clothes off, one two three ／ No you don't
have to talk to me
just leave the light on so I can see ／ You've got everything you
need ／ Oh yeah ／ 'Cause
I've never had a woman before ／ I was too scared to touch the
girls in the Poly ／ And I
don't know what it's like to be young ／ 'Cause all my life I've
been knocking on forty
my hand ／ on your bosom...
／ No that's not right
But, but if we ／ if we kissed with tongues ／
wouldn't that make ／ wouldn't that make you come？ ／ Oh take your
clothes off won't you
please？ ／ No you don't have to talk to me ／ just leave the light
on so I can see ／ You've
got everything I need ／ Oh oh oh ／ Just one touch was all it
took ／ No you can't learn it
from a book ／ Let's go upstairs and have a ／ look ／ Oh you've
got everything I need ／ Oh
yeah ／ Oh yeah, oh yeah ／ Oh yeah, oh yeah ／ Oh yeah ／ Hit me.


9.Cocaine Socialism

I thought that you were joking ／ When you said 'I want to see
you ／ To discuss your
contribution ／ To the future of our nation's heart and soul ／
Six o'clock, my place,
Whitehall' ／ Well I arrived just after seven ／ But you said 'It
doesn't
matter' ／ 'I understand your situation ／ And your image, and I'm
flattered ／ Oh
and I'd just like to tell you ／ That I love all of your albums ／
Could you sign this for
my daughter？ ／ She's in hospital, her name is Miriam ／ Now get

fine, yeah!
Buzzin' all the time ／ Just one hit ／ And I feel great ／ And I

piss ／ In your private
member's bar ／ Oh yes you are ／ Yer superstar ／ Well you sing
about common people ／ And
the mis-shapes and the misfits ／ So can you bring them to my
party ／ And get them all to
sniff this？ ／ And all I'm really saying ／ Is come on and rock
the vote for me ／ All I'm
really saying ／ Is come on roll up that note for me ／ The gist
of all of this is ／ Do you
want hits or d'you want misses？ ／ Are you a socialist, yeah ／
Socialist, yeah ／ Socialist,
yeah ／ Oh yeah' ／ 'Yeah, you can be just what you want to be ／
Just as long as
you don't try to compete with me ／ And we've waited such a long
time ／ For the chance to
help our own kind, so now ／ Please come on and tow the party
line ／ Oh you owe it to
yourself ／ Don't think of anybody else ／ And we promise we won't
tell ／ Oh we won't tell,
and we won't sell' ／ No we won't ／ No we won't ／ No we won't


10.Ansaphone

Oh I know I don't own you ／ but I don't even know if I should
phone you ／ Someone sending
me letters ／ saying you've been going with other fellers ／ And
they ／ bored you ／ But I
don't wanna cry ／ or talk for hours ／ to a machine ／ on the end
／ of a telephone line ／ Oh
it just kills me ／ when all you've got to do is call ／ Oh do it
any time ／ 'cause there's
never no-one home ／ never no-one home ／ Leave your message on
the ansaphone ／ I'm not
trying to be clever ／ but at least we're not still living
together ／ All those calls in
the evening ／ if I answered they'd hang up without speaking ／
And they ／ bored you ／ But I
／ don't want to cry ／ or talk for hours ／ to a machine ／ on the
end ／ of a telephone line
／ Oh it just kills me ／ when all you've got to do is call ／ Oh
do it any time ／ 'cause
there's never no-one home ／ never no-one home ／ Leave your
message on the ansaphone
doesn't matter what you
get up to. I just want you to stay in touch. That's all.' ／ Are
you really not at
home？ ／ Or are you there but not alone？ ／ Screening calls ／ you
don't want to receive
meaning calls ／ calls that come from me ／ Oh I ／ need to see you
／ It's not enough for me
just to hear you ／ You said you'd be here by ten thirty ／ but
you want to stay out and be
dirty ／ Oh it just kills me ／ when all you've got to do is call
／ Oh do it any time
'cause there's never no-one home ／ never no-one home ／ Leave
your message on the
ansaphone.


11.Silence

At first ／ I could say ／ I could say or do ／ just whatever I
liked ／ You would ／ you would
not ／ You would not answer ／ that's alright ／ Oh ／ I can't
believe in the morning of your
silence ／ You will never cut ／ you will never cut the threads of
your reliance ／ You can
you can deny ／ you can deny that I was anything to you ／ But I
know ／ I know in my mind
I can see the scars ／ the scars I've left on you ／ I can't
believe in the morning of your
silence ／ You will never cut ／ you will never cut the threads of
your reliance ／ When we
are passed in the street ／ You can try and cover it up with
whatever you like ／ Lipstick,
mascara, that kind of thing ／ You won't fool me ／ you won't fool
anyone ／ They'll take one
look at you ／ and they'll know the kind of person they're
dealing with ／ You can laugh
about it ／ you can pretend that you weren't involved ／ But you
know what went on in that
room that night ／ You know what was said ／ ans you know you'll
never forget ／ I hate the
sight of the face I have destroyed through our alliance ／ I
won't forget how loved I once
was and how much I loved your eyes ／ So the bedroom becomes a
funeral parlour once again
See the corpse of former feeling laid out stiff and white for
all to see ／ So ／ this is
the end ／ But we'll still be good friends, won't we？ ／ We'll
still be good friends, won't
we？ ／ We'll still be good friends, won't we？ ／ Goodbye.


12.Mile End

We didn't have no where to live, ／ we didn't have nowhere to go
／ 'til someone said
'I know this place off Burditt Road.' ／ It was on the fifteenth
floor, ／ it had
a board across the door. ／ It took an hour ／ to pry it off and
get inside. ／ It smelt as
if someone had died; ／ the living-room was full of flies, ／ the
kitchen sink was blocked,
／ the bathroom sink not there at all. ／ Ooh, ／ it's a mess
alright, ／ yes it's ／ Mile End.
／ And now we're living in the sky! ／ I'd never thought I'd live
so ／ high, ／ just like
Heaven ／ (if it didn't look like Hell.) ／ The lift is always
full of piss, ／ the fifth
floor landing smells of fish ／ (not just on Friday, ／ every
single other day.) ／ Below the
kids come out tonight, ／ they kick a ball and have a fight ／ and
maybe shoot somebody if
they lose at pool. ／ Ooh, ／ it's a mess alright, ／ yes it's ／
Mile End. ／ [mumbled
mutterings... you love it...]／ Oo-ooh ／ Nobody wants to be your
friend ／ 'cause you're
not from round here, ／ ooh ／ as if that was ／ something to be
proud about. ／ The pearly
king of the Isle of Dogs ／ feels up children in the bogs. ／ Down
by the playing fields,
someone sets a car on fire I guess you have to go right down ／
before you understand just
how, ／ how low, ／ how low a human being can go. ／ Ooh, ／ it's a
mess alright, ／ yes it's
Mile End. ／ (don't do that! Leave it out!) ／ Bababa... ／
Lalala...

Standing there before you ／ defences thrown aside ／ I thought I
heard you laughing ／ but
when I asked you said you'd cried ／ I wanted to believe you ／
Yes I wanted to feel strong
／ but looking at my picture ／ I realised I must be wrong ／
Sounds so weak ／ it sounds so
fey ／ it doesn't sound ／ like what I meant to say ／ I speak to
you ／ with a borrowed
tongue ／ Shall I stop right now ／ or blindly carry on？ ／ Choose
everyone ／ I only have one viewpoint ／ don't talk to me of right
or wrong ／ And didn't I
often tell you ／ oh didn't I often say ／ that something in your
manner ／ that really takes
my breath away？ ／ It's not weak ／ to show I care ／ I know of
those ／ who wouldn't even
bear ／ The fact remains ／ I feel a need ／ Is it love ／ or is it
simply greed？ ／ It's not
weak ／ to show I care ／ I know of those ／ who wouldn't even bear
／ The fact remains ／ I
feel a need ／ Is it love ／ or is it simply greed？ ／ You choose
what you believe in ／ as
far as I'm concerned ／ But one thing I can tell you ／ is
innocence cannot be learned ／ I
wish you'd stop me talking ／ oh I wish you'd shut my mouth ／
Well the reason why I tell
you ／ is I think that you could help me out ／ and if you do then
there's no doubt ／ that
all my problems won't just fly away.


15.Tomorrow Never Lies

Tomorrow never lies so live for today ／ Don't be afraid of the
skeletons of yesterday
Each morning brings you closer to your goal so grab your chance

all my cigarettes again
Every time I get no further ／ How long has it been？ ／ Come on in
now, wipe your feet on my
dreams ／ You take up my time ／ Like some cheap magazine ／ When I

should have drunk ／ You are
the body hidden in the trunk ／ You are the habit I can't seem to
kick ／ You are my secrets

have bought ／ You are the
dream I never should have caught ／ You are the cut that makes me
hide my face ／ You are
the party that makes me feel my age ／ Like a car crash I can see
but I just can't avoid
Like a plane I've been told I never should board ／ Like a film
that's so bad but I've got
to stay till the end ／ Let me tell you now： it's lucky for you
that we're friends.


19.What Do You Say？

Woke up in the morning ／ raised my head still yawning ／ Well I
was in for a surprise
Stumbled to the mirror ／ realised in horror ／ the face that
stared back wasn't mine ／ And
it seemed to be so strange ／ this sudden facial change ／ What do
you say？ ／ What do you
say？ ／ I'd say it's quite strange ／ the way I've changed since
yesterday ／ Went down to
the kitchen ／ hoping they would listen ／ but no-one else could
see, you see ／ I could live
sans danger ／ but all night I saw a stranger ／ A stranger that I
knew as me ／ And now it
takes up all my time ／ this face that is not mine ／ What do you
say？ ／ What do you say？
I'd say it's quite strange ／ the way I've changed since
yesterday ／ Oh the way I've
changed since yesterday ／ And so I rest my case ／ I don't want
another's face ／ What do
you say？ ／ What do you say？ ／ I'd say it's quite strange ／ the
way I've changed since
yesterday ／ Oh the way I've changed since yesterday ／ Oh the way
I've changed since
yesterday ／ Oh the way I've changed since.

24.59, Lyndhurst Grove

There's a picture by his first wife on the wall
Stripped floor-boards in the kitchen and the hall
A stain from last week's party on the stairs
No-one knows who made it
Or how it ever got there
They were dancing with children round their necks
Talking business, books and records, art and sex
All things being considered
You'd call it a success
You wore your black dress

He's an architect and such a lovely guy
And he'll stay with you until the day you die
And he'll give you everything you could desire
Oh well almost everything
Everything that he can buy
So you sometimes go out in the afternoon
Spend an hour with your lover in his bedroom
Hear old women rolling trolleys down the road
Back to lyndhurst grove
Lyndhurst grove, oh


25.Acrylic Afternoons

I fell asleep on your sofa,
And had a dream about a small child,
In dungarees,
Who caught his hands in the doors of the paris metro.
Then my face cracked open and you were there,
You were there dressed in green,
Saying something obscene.
But that's why i came here in the first place,
Oh well that and the tea.

Can i stay here,
Lying under the table together with you now？
Can i hold you？
Forever in acrylic afternoons
I want to hold you tight
Whilst children play outside
And wait for their mothers to finish with lovers
And call them inside for their tea.

Cushions and tv,
And the table set for tea.
One for you, one for me.
Come and lie down on the settee,
In that green jumper,
You can have anything you want.
And the clock is saying,
It's half past four but you know,
I want to stay a little more.

Can i stay here,
Lying under the table together with you now？
Can i hold you？
Forever in acrylic afternoons
I want to hold you tight
Whilst children play outside
And wait for their mothers to finish with lovers
And call them inside for their tea.

On a pink quilted eiderdown,
I want to pull your knickers down.
Net curtains blow slightly in the breeze.
Lemonade light filtering through the trees.
It's so soft and it's warm.
Just another cup of tea please (one lump thanks).

Can i stay here,
Lying under the table together with you now？
Can i hold you？
Forever in acrylic afternoons
I want to hold you tight
Whilst children play outside
And wait for their mothers to finish with lovers
And call them inside for their tea.

Oh kevin, shane, julie, diane, wayne, frank,
Heather, rachel, chelsea, leanne, come home.
It's time for your tea.


26.Anorexic Beauty

Sitting alone on a cold bar stool,
Your cold, hard eyes make me feel a fool.
Pastel-white features,
High cheek-bones,
Scarlet-blooded lips and deathly tones.

The girl of my nightmares,
Sultry and corpse-like.
The girl
Of my
Nightmares.

Brittle fingers,
And thin cigarettes,
So hard to tell apart,
She hasn't spoken yet.
You put your hand on mine,
Death white on brown,
Those whirlpool eyes;
Well, i begin to drown.

The girl of my nightmares,
Erotic and skull-faced.
The girl
Of my
Nightmares.

Anorexic beauty,
Feather-weight perfection,
Anorexic beauty,
Underweight
Goddess.

Sitting alone on
A cold bar stool, your
So hard to tell apart,
She hasn't spoken yet.
Pastel-white features,
High cheek-bones,
Scarlet-blooded lips and deathly tones.

The girl of my nightmares,
Sultry and corpse-like.
The girl
Of my
Nightmares.

Anorexic beauty,
Feather-weight perfection,
Anorexic beauty,
Underweight
Goddess.


27.Bad Cover Version

The word's on the street：you've found someone new.
If he looks nothing like me i'm so happy for you.
I heard an old girlfriend has turned to the church -
She's trying to replace me, but it'll never work.
'cos every touch reminds you of just how sweet it could have
been
And every time he kisses you it leaves behind the bitter taste
of saccharine.
A bad cover version of love is not the real thing.
Bikini-clad girl on the front who invited you in.
Such great disappointment when you got him home -
The original was so good; the one you no longer own.
And every touch reminds you of just how sweet it could have been
And every time he kisses you, you get the taste of saccharine.
It's not easy to forget me, it's so hard to disconnect
When it's electronically reprocessed to give a more life-like
effect.

Aah, sing your song about all the sad imitations that got it so
wrong
It's like a later 'tom ＆ jerry' when the two of them could talk
Like the stones since the eighties, like the last days of
southfork.
Like 'planet of the apes' on tv, the second side of ''til the
band comes in'
Like an own-brand box of cornflakes： he's going to let you down
my friend.


28.Bob Lind(The Only Way Is Down)

When you think you're treading water, but you're just learning
how to drown.
And a song comes on the radio telling you that 'the only way is
down'.
You're out of luck, you're out of time, get out of here.
Your lover just traded you in for the very same model but a much
more recent year.
It will not stop, it will get worse from day to day 'til you
admit that you're a fuck-up; like the rest of us.
Oh, that's the time you fall apart .
That's the time the teardrops start ＆ that's the time you fall
in love again.
Yeah, that's the time you fall in love again.
The recreational pursuits that made you shine have worn you
thin.
And it's oh so fine getting out of your mind as long as you can
find your way back in.
You want someone to screw your brains out
I'd say they're running out of time ＆ they'd only go ＆ cut
themselves on the daggers of your mind.
This is your future.
This is the sentence you must serve 'til you admit that you're a
fuck-up like the rest of us.
Oh, that's the time you fall apart.
That's the time the teardrops start ＆ that's the time you fall
in love again.
When you've had enough, when you've had too much,
When you got knocked down ＆ you never got up.
That's the time you fall in love again.
Oh, when you walked into the room i could not breathe, i could
not speak.
Please could i hide myself inside you？
As far inside as it's possible to be.
Can you assist me？ i could not make it on my own.
Can i give you all the love i have？
It's not much but i'll try ＆ raise a loan.
I have no pride left, no, no there is nothing i'm trying to
prove
No, i am a fuck-up; just the same as you.
Oh, i guess this is where i fall apart
And i guess this is where the teardrops start but i don't care
'cos i just fell in love again.
And i'd had enough - well, far too much
I just fell down, could you please help me up？
'cos if you help me maybe i could fall in love again. na na na.


29.Cocaine Sosialism

I thought that you were joking,
When you said
'i want to see you
To discuss your contribution
To the future of our nation's heart and soul -
Six o'clock my place, white hall'
Well i arrived just after seven.
But you said
'it doesn't matter.
I understand your situation,
And your image,
And i'm flattered.
Oh and i'd just like to tell you,
That i love all of your albums.
Could you sign this for my daugther？
She's in hospital, her name is miriam.
Now i'll get down to the gist -
Do you want a line of this？

Are you a ＊sniff sniff＊
Socialist？

Now i'm doing fine.
(yeah!)
Buzing all the time.
Oh just one hit,
And i feel great.
And i support the welfare state.
Oh you must be a socialist
Cos you're always off and on the piss
In your private members' bar.
Oh yes you are.
You're a superstar.
Well you sing about comon people.
And the mis-shapes and the misfits.
So can you bring them to my party？
And get them all to sniff this？
Oh and all i'm really saying,
Is come on and rock the vote for me.
All i'm really saying,
Is come on, roll up that note for me.
Your choice in all of this is -
Do you want hits or do you want misses？

Are you a ＊sniff sniff＊ socialist？ yeah.
Socialist yeah.
Socialist yeah.
Oh yeah.

Oh you can be just what you want to be.
Oh just as long as you don't try to compete with me.
We've waited such a long time
For a chance to help our own kind.
So now
Please come on and tow the party line.
Oh you owe it to yourself,
Don't think of anybody else.
And we promise we won't tell.
No we won't tell.
We won't tell.
No we won't.
No we won't.
No we won't.
Oh no we won't tell.


30.Death Goes To The Disco

31.Death Ii

Oh now the lonely nights begin,
And there is nowhere left to go,
But watch my spirit melt away,
Down at the d-i-s-c-o.
I must have died a thousand times,
The next day, i was still alive.
And i still believe in you,
Yes i do.
Let's do it now.
No. i was not crushed, i did not cry
You know that everything's o.k.
It's just sometimes i wake at night,
All alone and see your face.
Oh, thousands feel the same,
But the night-time falls away.
Oh no but still sometimes i feel,
Oh sometimes i feel like jesus christ now, hey,
I feel this night will never end,
And i will never see the day.
Oh i was nothing when you came,
I'm no-one now you've gone away.
Oh all i do is just o.k.
All of my nights,
And all of my days.
Oh-oh if you came home right now,
I'd run away,
Oh run away now.
O.k. now
Alright.
You can go out and make love to whoever, or whatever you like
babe
So i go out and fill my eyes with other women,
Oh they look good to me and i think that i might kiss them,
Oh now it's two a.m. and i'm still stood here waiting,
So i go home and wonder why i bothered going.
Yeah every week turns out the same,
The sun, the wind, the snow, the rain.
Oh no but still sometimes i feel,
Oh sometimes i feel like jesus christ now, hey,
I feel this night will never end,
And i will never see the day.
Oh i was nothing when you came,
I'm no-one now you've gone away.
Oh all i do is just o.k.
All of my nights, and all of my days.
Oh-oh if you came home right now,
I'd run away.
I can't believe it.
I can't remember your face anymore.
Or the sound of your voice.
Or any touch of your skin,
Is a legend.
By the way,
Did i tell you that i loved you？
Oh if i didn't i'm so sorry.
You know i,
I really,
I really meant to tell you.
It's o.k. there's no need to hurry.
But the bed is full of memories,
Full of memories of you.
Oh i've tried to get them out but,
But there's nothing i can do.
Oh if i knew the moon i'd ask him,
Shine his light in through your window,
And send your body home to me today.
Hey,
I feel this night will never end,
And i will never see the day,
Oh i was nothing when you came,
I'm no-one now you've gone away
Oh all i do is o.k.
All of my nights,
And all of my days.
Oh-oh if you came home right now,
I'd run away,
Run away,
Run away.


32.Do You Remember The First Time？

You say you've got to go home
Cos he's sitting on his own again this evening.
I know you're gonna let him bore your pants off again.
Oh god, it's half past eight,
You'll be late.
You say you've never been sure,
Though it makes good sense for you to be together.
Still you bought a toy that can reach the places he never goes.
Oh, now it's getting late.
He's so straight.

Do you remember the first time？
I can't remember a worse time.
But you know that we've changed so much since then,
Oh yeah,
We've grown.
Now i don't care what you're doing,
No i don't care if you screw him.
Just as long as you save a piece for me,
Oh yeah

You say you've got to go home.
Well at least there's someone there that you can talk to.
And you never have to face up to the night on your own.
Jesus, it must be great to be straight.

Do you remember the first time？
I can't remember a worse time.
But you know that we've changed so much since then,
Oh yeah,
We've grown.
Now i don't care what you're doing,
No i don't care if you screw him.
Just as long as you save a piece for me,
Oh yeah


33.Don't You Know

There's not much time for talking,
All your friends are
Going to walk away.
If there was time for talking
All too soon you'd be
Lost for things to say.
Don't you know she could break you,
Every bone that's inside of you？
Then again she might make you
Everything that you want her to,
And if you could walk away,
Where would you go
Anyway？
And if you've still got the chance,
I know you know you'll stay,
Stay.
I don't need your excuses;
Are you tired of
Trying to stay on top？
So just lie back and enjoy it
And save your tears for
When the kissing stops
Oh, you know it's got to stop.
Don't you know she could break you,
Every bone that's inside of you？
Then again she might make you
Everything that you want her to,
And if you could walk away,
Where would you go
Anyway？
And if you've still got the chance,
I know you know you'll stay,
Stay.
Oh, you'll stay,
Oh, you'll stay.

Every bone that's inside of you？
Then again she might make you
Everything that you want her to,

Where would you go
Anyway？

I know you know you'll stay,
Stay.

34.Don't You Want Me Anymore？

On the night that i was leaving,
The moon rose in the sky.
As i came, to fetch my suitcase,
And then you began to cry.
I've never seen you look so ugly as the way you did that night.
That night was eighteen months ago.
Now i'm two hours from the station.
Yeah i'm coming home again.
I'm gonna show this town who's master soon as i get off this
train.
You're gonna love me more than ever,
And the sun will shine again.
And i will kiss your face,
And i will make you smile again.
And then the whole damn town will come on out to welcome me.
Oh they will open all the doors and give it all to me.
Oh no but still your voice is ringing in my ears.
Don't you want me anymore？
Don't you want me anymore？
And i can't, i can't believe it's happening.
I know that, oh there must be some mistake.
You found yourself another lover,
And you're glad we made the break.
Oh you don't even, you don't even want to see me.
You just wanna wave and say 'goodbye.
Go away now, and leave us alone,
No this house is not your own.'
And now the whole damn town has come on out to laugh at me.
Oh yeah.
Oh they can stare for evermore; you do not care for me.
Oh no.
Oh they can stare now for a hundred thousand years.
Don't you want me anymore？
Don't you want me anymore？
Don't you want me anymore？
Don't you want me anymore？


35.Down By The River

Take me down,
To the river,
Where i would not go before.
Through the trees and the rushes,
To a place we both know.
And i'm feeling much younger,
As i kneel on the ground,
Dip my toe in the water,
Of the river where i watched you drown
Nadadum nananana nana na...
Oh when the river ran dry that next year,
I could not find your body.
Now i'm standing here ready at last,
To dive down and reach you again.
And i long to be with you
Now these cold nights have come,
Oh i go down to the river,
But the river will stop for no-one.
Though i ask it it keeps flowing on,
When i ask it,
It tells me you're gone.
Dadow...


36.Fairground

As the signs outside proclaimed,
Nature sometimes makes mistakes.
Was it the mother or the father to blame,
Inside the damp grass and tilted tent？
As the signs outside proclaimed,
Nature sometimes makes mistakes.
Was it the mother or the father to blame,
Inside the damp grass and tilted tent？

Won't you come with me to the fairground？
Your head
Will be spinning,
I said your head
Is your feet.
And the man at the side of me starts a lewd laugh
(ah ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha!)
At the cat with two heads and the dog with eight legs.
(ah ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha!)
The man has come between us,
His cheeks rattle like a fence,
(ah ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha!)
He's come between us, and he starts a lewd laugh.
(ah ha ha ha ha ha ha!)

I sought shelter from the storm in a small inn by the coast.
In the children's room three identical sisters sat,
Except for the one who was hideously deformed;
Her grotesque features seemed to parody her sisters' beauty,
Ridiculing and mocking everything i held dear.

Won't you come with me to the fairground？
Your head
Will be spinning,
I said your head
Is your feet.
And the man at the side of me starts a lewd laugh
(ah ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha!)
At the cat with two heads and the dog with eight legs.
(ah ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha!)
The man has come between us,
His cheeks rattle like a fence,
(ah ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha!)
He's come between us, and he starts a lewd laugh.
(ah ha ha ha ha ha ha!)

The fish-eyed foetus floated blankly in the yellowed waters,
still as wax.
The man came between us,
My sister and i,
Ridiculing and parodying everything we held dear,
Making a mockery of our former emotions.
Dragging it all down to his level.

Won't you come with me to the fairground？
Your head
Will be spinning.
And the man at the side of me starts a lewd laugh
(ah ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha!)
At the cat with two heads and the dog with eight legs.
(ah ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha!)
The man has come between us,
His cheeks rattle like a fence,
(ah ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha!)
He's come between us, and he starts a lewd laugh.
(ah ha ha ha ha ha ha!)
And then we went for rides.
Come on, spin those cars boys and make the girls scream!
The louder you scream the faster we go!
Come on, roll up, go on, ladies and gentlemen, boys and girls,
For the ride of a lifetime.
There's plenty of seats, come on, don't be shy!
Roll up, come on, come on!
And then we went for rides.


37.Happy Endings

Well, imagine it's a film and you're the star
And pretty soon we're coming to the part
Where you realise that you should give your heart,
Oh, give your heart to me.
And now the orchestra begins to make a sound,
That goes round ＆ round ＆ round ＆ round ＆ round ＆ round ＆ round
＆ round
＆ round again
We kiss to violins.
Well some sad people might believe in that i guess.
But we know better don't we？
We know all about the mess.
The aftermath of our affair,
Is lying all around and i can't clear it away.
No.
And d'you think that it's so easy to find？
Somebody who is just your kind？
Well it might take you a little time,
But i'm going to have to try.
Oh yeah i'm gonna try.
And i know no-one can ever know,
Which way to head.
But don't you remember,
That you once said,
That you liked happy endings？
And no-one can ever know,
If it's going to work,
But if you try,
Then you might get your happy ending.


38.Have You Seen Her Lately？

First you let him in your bed.
Now he's moved inside your head.
And he directs all the dreams you are dreaming.
I saw a friend of yours today,
She called me over just to say,
'i dunno if you've seen her lately but god she's looking rough'.

No don't go round to see him tonight,
He's already made such a mess of your life.
Find something else to do with your time,
And do it quickly while you've still got the chance.

Do you think he'll fall apart？
Do you think you'll break his heart？
If you leave him on his own.
You are dreaming.
Cos he can fasten all his clothes,
Tie his laces,
Blow his nose.
It's time to teach him how to walk,
Yeah, teach your baby how to walk away.

No don't go round to see him tonight,
He's already made such a mess of your life.
Find something else to do with your time,
And do it quickly while you've still got the chance.

You're not his mother,
You're not sister ＆ brother.
He's not even your lover.
He's just a piece of luggage you should throw away.

No don't go round to see him tonight,
He's already made such a mess of your life.
Find something else to do with your time,
And do it quickly while you've still got the chance.

No don't go round tonight,
You'll never make it right.
He's already made such a mess of your life.
Find something else to do with your time,
And do it quickly while you've still got the chance.


39.I Love Life

Here comes your bedtime story：mum ＆ dad have sentenced you to
life.
Don't think twice; it's the only reason i'm alive.
I feel alright as long as i don't forget to breathe.
Breathe in, breathe in, breathe out.
Look at all these buildings ＆ houses
I love my life. i love my life.
Hey now, slow down a minute.
Take my arms ＆ fill them full of life.
Don't think twice.
Does it ease the pain of being alive？
Or is it why - why you keep nodding out on me？
Breathe in, breathe in, breathe out.
Another day, another major disaster
I love my life. i love my life.
You got a problem.
I lost my keys when i stayed at your place.
On the floor of your living room, you made the scene but it'll
never get shown on tv.
So tonight prepare to kiss goodbye to my lovelife.
So get this right- i love my life; it's the only reason i'm
alive.
It's mine, all mine - as long as i don't forget to breathe.
Breathe in, breathe in, breathe out.
Corny i know, but you had better believe it
I love my life. i love my life. i love my life. god, how i love
my life.
That's right： you've got to fight to the death for the right to
live your life.
Alright： i'm gonna fight to the death 'til they give me back my
life.
That's right： you're in the land of the living but there's so
few signs of life.
Alright.
Breathe in. breathe out. breathe out.


40.I Want You

Hey,
You can look, you can look just like anyone else
If that's what you want to do.
I,
I could laugh,
I could laugh in your face if i want
Oh, but i'm not going to.
When we met last week on saturday,
I couldn't make a sentence,
I couldn't even say
What i meant to say：

That i want you
It doesn't hurt to say i want you,
I need you
I never thought i'd say i need you,
I'll keep you,
Oh yes i'll keep you and i'll throw myself away, away, away,
And i'll break you
Because i lose myself inside you,
I'll make you
Fit in the space that i provide you, i'll take you,
Oh yes, i'll take you just to push you far away, away, away.

Yes,
Yes, you're all,
Yes you're all that i ever desire,
Still i'll kill you in the end.
When,
When it seems,
When it seems that it's getting too soft,
When you lapse into a friend,
There's someone just behind the door
So don't betray your feelings,
No don't talk anymore,
Never dare to say

That i want you
It doesn't hurt to say i want you,
I need you
I never thought i'd say i need you,
I'll keep you,
Oh yes i'll keep you and i'll throw myself away, away, away,
And i'll break you
Because i lose myself inside you, i'll make you
Fit in the space that i provide you, i'll take you,
Oh yes, i'll take you just to push you far away, away, away.

Now,
Now we come,
Now we come to the end of it all,
See it squirming, almost dead.
No,
You can't leave,
You can't leave it to die here in pain.
You've got to stamp upon it's head.
I'll go out and you'll stay home
Facing up to living,
Living on your own,
And i'll curse my pride,
Curse my pride,
Curse my stupid pride

Because i want you
It doesn't hurt to say i want you,
I need you
I never thought i'd say i need you,
I'll keep you,
Oh yes i'll keep you and i'll throw myself away, away, away,
And i'll break you
Because i lose myself inside you, i'll make you
Fit in the space that i provide you, i'll take you,
Oh yes, i'll take you just to push you far away, away, away.


41.I'm A Man

Laid here with the advertising sliding past my eyes
Like cartoons from other peoples lives,
I start to wonder what it takes to be a man.
Well i learned to drink
And i learned to smoke
And i learned to tell a drity joke.
If that's all there is then there's no point for me.

So please can i ask just why we're alive？
Cos all that you do seems such a waste of time
And if you hang around too long you'll be a man.
Tell me 'bout it.
Your car can get up to a hundred and ten -
You've nowhere to go but you'll go there again
And nothing ever makes no difference to a man.

So you stumble into town and hold your stomach in.
Show them what you've got tho' they've seen everything.
Yeah you're a beauty but they've seen your type before.
You've got no need but still you want,
So go and book that restaurant.
The wine will flow and then you'll just fly away.

So please can i ask just why we're alive？
Cos all that you do seems such a waste of time
And if you hang around too long you'll be a man.
Tell me 'bout it.
Your car can get up to a hundred and ten -
You've nowhere to go but you'll go there again
And nothing ever makes no difference to a man.
Nothing ever makes no difference to a man.
That's what i am.


42.Is This House？

Is this house？
Is this house？
Is this house？
Etc etc etc


43.Joyriders

We like driving on a saturday night,
Past the leisure centre, left at the lights.
We don't look for trouble,
But if it comes we don't run.
Looking out for trouble,
Is what we call fun.

Hey you, you in the jesus sandals,
Wouldn't you like to come
Over and watch some vandals smashing up someone's home？

We can't help it, we're so thick we can't think,
Can't think of anything but shit, sleep and drink.
Oh, and we like women;
'up the women' we say,
And if we get lucky,
We might even meet some one day.

Hey you, you in the jesus sandals,
Wouldn't you like to come
Over and watch some vandals smashing up someone's home？

Mister, we just want your car,
Cos we're taking a girl to the reservoir.
Oh, all the papers say,
It's a tragedy, but don't you want to come and see？

Mister, we just want your car,
Cos we're taking a girl to the reservoir.
Oh, all the papers say,
It's a tragedy, but don't you want to come and see？

Oh, all the papers say,
It's a tragedy, but don't you want to come and see？


44.Ladies Man

You're in safe hands here cos i'm a ladies' man.
I got my work cut out i'm doing what i can.
So hold me, touch me, thrill me.
Don't ever let me go.
Don't ask me to explain it,
Cos you don't wanna know

Ahh ahh.
Your hair is beautfiul tonight.
Oooh oooh.
Hold me now the feeling's right.
Just below the surface is a fear that just won't go.
So come on and hold me.
Come on and hold me, hold me, hold me

I know a place where we can go and be just what we want.
I don't wanna be me;
I get so tired and bored.
So don't ask any questions,
And i will tell no lies.
Stop living like some housewife,
And be yourself tonight.

Ahh ahh.
Your hair is beautfiul tonight.
Oooh oooh.
Hold me now the feeling's right.
Just below the surface is a fear that just won't go.
So come on and hold me.
Come on and hold me, hold me, hold me


45.Lipgloss

No wonder you're looking thin,
When all that you live on is lipgloss and cigarettes.
And scraps at the end of the day when he's given the rest,
To someone with long black hair.
All those nights up making such a mess of the bed.
Oh you never ever want to go home.
And he wants you so you may as well hang around for a while,
Call your dad on the phone.

He changed his mind last monday,
So you've gotta leave by sunday, yeah.
You've lost your lipgloss honey, oh yeah.
Now nothing you do can turn him on,
There's something wrong.
You had it once but now it's gone.

And you feel such a fool,
For laughing at bad jokes,
And putting up with all of his friends,
And kissing in public.
What are they gonna say when they run into you again？
That your stomach looks bigger and your hair is a mess,
And your eyes are just holes in your face.
And it rains every day,
And when it doesn't,
The sun makes you feel worse anyway.

He changed his mind last monday,
Now you've gotta leave by sunday, yeah.
You've lost your lipgloss honey, oh yeah.
Now nothing you do can turn him on,
There's something wrong.
You had it once but now it's gone.

Though you knew,
There was no way it was gonna last for ever,
It still shook you,
When he told you in a letter,
That he didn't wanna see you.
You nearly lost your mind, oh yeah.

You've lost your lipgloss honey, oh yeah.
Now nothing you do can turn him on,
There's something wrong.
You had it once but now it's gone, oh yeah.
You've lost your lipgloss honey, oh yeah.
Now nothing you do can turn him on,
There's something wrong.
You had it once but now it's gone.
Oh yeah.


46.Live On

I woke up in the morning i was still alive
The mirror says i'm fifty-five years old
If i don't look his way, i'm gonna do okay
I'm gonna last another day without your love
Ma ma ma ma ma ma
Last another day without your love
Oh no one lives alone for more than half a year
That's what a friend of mine once said to me
There's more things in the world than holding hands and kissing
girls
You've got to last another day without your love
Ma ma ma ma ma ma
Last another day without your love
Ma ma ma ma ma ma
Last another day without your love

Oh but i dreamt of you last night
And the world split into two
I tried to listen to some records but they were all
Singing about you
I can't live on never knowing where my soul is going when i die
I can't last another day without your love
Ma ma ma ma ma ma
I can't last another day without your love
Ma ma ma ma ma ma
I can't last another day without your love

Oh yeah, well i realise
I should think about somebody new instead
That's what i tried to do, but the ones i liked looked just like
you
Gotta last another day without your love
Ma ma ma ma ma ma
Last another day without your love
Ma ma ma ma ma ma
Last another day without your love

Oh but i dreamt of you last night
And the world split into two
I tried to listen to some records but they were all
Singing about you
I can't live on never knowing where my soul is going when i die
I can't last another day without your love
Ma ma ma ma ma ma
I can't last another day without your love
Ma ma ma ma ma ma
I can't last another day without your love

It's okay, i'm not a kid anymore
I can last another day without your love
If i focus all my thoughts on something stupid
I can last another day without your love
Ooh gonna last another day
Last another day
Last another day
Last another day

Last another day
Last another day
Good god

Oh but i dreamt of you last night

Ma ma ma ma ma ma
I can't last another day without your love
Ma ma ma ma ma ma
I can't last another day without your love.


47.My Legendary Girlfriend

You know sometimes...when we're lying together...
And i know you're asleep...i can hear the soft sound of your
breathing...
So i get up...and i go to the window...outside...i can see all
the houses...
Curtains shut tight against the night...asleep beneath the
roof-tiles...
And as i stand here...i wonder...i wonder how many more times...
I'm gonna come here...i wonder how many more times...i'm gonna
lie here...
And most of all...most of all i wonder...i wonder what it
means...
I just wanna know what it means...so i woke her...
And we went walking through the sleeping town...
Down deserted streets...frozen gardens grey in the moonlight...
Fences...down to the canal...
Creeping slowly past the cooling towers...
Deserted factories...looking for an adventure...
I wandered the streets calling your name...jumping walls...
Hoping to see a light in the window...let me in...
Let me come in...let me in tonight...
Oh i see you shivering in the garden...
Silver goose-flesh in the moonlight ...she's balancing...
There are so many others...with unbroken eyes...
No cellulite afternoons... and she is balancing...
Balancing on the edge of ugliness tonight...
She is balancing...

Good god!
My legendary girlfriend,
She is crying tonight,
Oh no she doesn't feel right,
She's got no-one to hold,
Her love is a sham,
He is dancing somewhere.
Oh no he doen't care,
Oh well, he'll never know.

Jump...touch my hair...i wanna...i don't care...cos tonight...we
could,
Maybe we...maybe we can touch the sky...do you think that we
can...
Do you think that we can...touch the sky...please...i know...
I know it's not forever...but tonight i don't care...
Your skin so pale in the moonlight...
And the way your lips swell up when you're asleep...
Nothing else matters...do you know how much i want you？...
Can you feel how much i want you？...
Oh
Pitsmoor woman
Oh let
Oh let me in tonight

My legendary girlfriend,
She is crying tonight,
Oh no she doesn't feel right,
She's got no-one to hold.
Her love is a sham,
He is dancing somewhere.
Oh no he doen't care,
Oh well, he'll never know.
And all the stars came out tonight,
And the moon came on it's face,
It shone right though the clothes she wore,
It shone right through the dress she wore.
Good god

Oh, y'know...listen...listen...please...oh...i just wanna...
I just wanna... ...he falls to sleep again...no cheese
tonight...she knows

My legendary girlfriend,
She is crying tonight,
Oh no she doesn't feel right,
She's got no-one to hold.
Her love is a sham,
He is dancing somewhere.
Oh no he doen't care,
Oh well, he'll never know.
And all the stars came out tonight,
And the moon came on it's face.
It shone right through the dress she wore,
It shone right through the clothes she wore.
And the stars and the moon,
And the stars all came down today.
Oh please love me tonight
Good god now!


48.O.u.(Gone Gone)

The night was ending
He needed her undressed
He said he loved her
She tried to look impressed
After the break-up
It's just something you do
To stop the night-time
From falling down on you

The world is ending
The sky is falling down
She's at the station
Because she's leaving town
Oh you could stop her
If you get out of bed
She wants to see you
At least that's what she said
You've got a minute
At the very most
And she's gone gone gone gone gone yes she's going away
Oh yes she's going away
Oh yes she's going away
Oh yes she's going away

And now it's over
Cos i just saw the end
I saw the credits
I turned around and then
I saw her running
Coming back to me
The sky exploded
But i couldn't see

The world is ending
The sky is falling down
She's at the station
Because she's leaving town
Oh you could stop her
If you get out of bed
She wants to see you
At least that's what she said
You've got a minute
At the very most
And she's gone and she's gone and she's gone
Oh yes she's going away

That special night we met
At the local p.t.a.
When your mother came to say
That you'd been taking days off school
I turned and looked at you, i said

Oh take your clothes off, one two three
No you don't have to talk to me
Just leave the light on so i can see

50.Party Hard

I used to try very hard to make friends with everyone on the
planet.
I've seen you havin' it, havin' it yeah
But now you've just had it.
Entertainment can sometimes be hard
When the thing that you love
Is the same thing that's holding you down.
This man is dangerous,
He just shed his load on your best party frock.
Before you enter the palace of wisdom you have to decide：
Are you ready to rock？
Oh can you party with me？
Can you show me a good time？
Do you even know what one looks like？
And i don't need to hear your stories again -
Just get on the floor and show me what you're made of.
Just what exactly are you made of？
Baby, you're driving me crazy.
Baby, you're driving me crazy.
I was having a whale of a time until your uncle psychosis
arrived.
Why do we have to half kill ourselves just to prove we're alive？
I'm here whenever you need me
And whenever you need me
I won't be here.
And have you ever stopped to ask yourself？
If you didn't come to party, then why did you come here？
Baby, you're driving me crazy.
Baby, you're driving me crazy.
And do you really want to know
Just how come you turned out so dumb？
When the party's over will you come home with me？
Now the party's over will you come home to me.
Will you come home to me？


51.Pink Glove

You'd better watch what you're wearing,
If you want him to come round and see you tonight.
He doesn't care what it looks like,
Just as long as it's pink and it's tight.

Oooh, so what should you do？
Should you stop being you？
Just to be how he wants you？
Oooh, say you'll visit your mum,
Then tell me that you'll come,
And meet me in the afternoon.
He's got your heart,
He's got control.
You might as well know.
I know you're never going to be with me,
But if you try sometimes then maybe,
You could get it right first time.
I realise that you'll never leave him,
But every now and then in the evening.
You could get it right first time.
I know you think i've got to be joking,
But if you touch him again then i'm going.
You got it right first time.
Get it right first time.

Now you've done it once now he wants you,
To wear your pink glove all the time.

Oooh, so what should you do？
Should you stop being you？
Just to be how he wants you？
Oooh, say you'll visit your mum,
Then tell me that you'll come,
And meet me in the afternoon.
He's got your heart,
He's got control.
You might as well know.
I know you're never going to be with me
But if you try sometimes then maybe,
You could get it right first time.
I realise that you'll never leave him,
But every now and then in the evening.
You could get it right first time.
I know you think i've got to be joking,
But if you touch him again then i'm going.
You got it right first time.
Get it right first time.

Oh you'll always be together,
Cos he gets you up in leather.
So you know what to wear at the end of the day,
And i'd laugh if i saw,
But i'm out of the way.
Yeah it's too long ago,
Shouldn't care anymore but i wanted to know;
Is it as good as before？
Yeah it's hard to believe that you'd go for that stuff,
All those baby-doll nighties with synthetic fluff.
Yeah it looks pretty good and it fits you ok,
Wear your pink glove babe,
He put it on the wrong way.

I know you're never going to be with me
But if you try sometimes then maybe,
You could get it right first time.
I realise that you'll never leave him,
But every now and then in the evening.
You could get it right first time.
I know you think i've got to be joking,
But if you touch him again then i'm going.
You got it right first time.
Get it right first time.


52.Razzmatazz

The trouble with your brother,
He's always sleeping with your mother.
And i know that your sister missed her time again this month.
Am i talking too fast or are you just playing dumb？
If you want i can write it down.
It should matter to you,
Cos aren't you the one,
With your razzmatazz and the nights on the town？

Oh you knew it, and you blew it didn't you babe？
I was lying when i asked you to stay.
Now no-one's gonna care,
If you don't call them when you said.
And he's not coming round tonight to try and talk you into bed.
And all those stupid little things,
They ain't working,
No they ain't working any more.

You started getting fatter,
Three weeks after i left you.
And now you're going with some kid who looks like some bad
comedian.
Are you gonna go out？
Or are you sitting at home eating boxes of milk tray？
Watch tv on your own, aren't you the one,
With your razzmatazz and your nights on the town？

And your father wants to help you doesn't he babe？
But your mother wants to put you away.
Now no-one's gonna care,
If you don't call them when you said.
And he's not coming round tonight to try and talk you into bed.
And all those stupid little things,
They ain't working,
No they ain't working any more.

Oh well i saw you at the doctor's,
Waiting for a test.
You tried to look like some kind of heiress,
But your face is such a mess.
And now you're going to a party,
And you're leaving on your own.
Well, i'm sorry, but didn't you say,
That things go better with a little bit of razzamatazz？

And now no-one's gonna care,
If you don't call them when you said.
And he's not coming round tonight to try and talk you into bed.
Now it's half past ten in the evening,
And you wish that you were dead,
Cos all those stupid little things,
They ain't working,
No they ain't working any more.


53.Roadkill

The feel of my arm around your waist, the pale blue nightdress
that you wore.
Your hair in braids, your sailor top：the things i don't see
anymore.
You lost your suitcase in my hotel room, a subway token from
your ma.
The sun reflecting off the water on your face ＆ the way you
drove your car.
All these things i can't forget tho' i don't see you anymore.

Drove to the airport thru' a traffic jam; a deer lay dying in
the road.
Maybe i should have seen it as some kind of sign, except i don't
believe in them no more.
No, no - but i believe these things i can't forget, tho' i don't
see you anymore.
Yes, i believe these things i can't forget, 'cos i see them -
tho' i don't see you anymore.


54.Seductive Barry

Here in the night love takes control.
Making me high
Making me whole.
I don't know.
Oh no no no.
No i don't know.
No no no.
No i don't know.

When i close my eyes i can see you lowering yourself to my
level.
I don't know where you got those clothes,
You can take them off if it makes you feel better.

Don't stop it now.
Now is so right.
Now as the day slips away
And we slide into night.
I don't know.
Oh no no no.
No i don't know know.
No no no.
No i don't know.

I open my eyes and you're there,
Even better in the flesh it would seem.
I'm so ready and willing and able it's untrue,
To act out this love scene
And make my dreams come true.
And how many others have touched themselves
Whilst looking at pictures of you？
How many others could handle it if all their dreams came true？
I don't expect you to answer straight away,
Maybe you're just having an off day
But i need to believe in you.
Yes i do.
Yes i do.

Oh i want you here in my heart.
Here in my head.
Live all your dreams for tonight
Here in your bed.
I don't know.
Oh no no no.
No i don't know.
No no no.
No i don't know.

So roll the soundtrack and dim the lights
Cos i'm not going home tonight.
This love scene has begun.
There's nothing left for us to do but get it on.
Lets make this the greatest love scene from a play no-one's
thought up yet.
I know you're feeling the same as me but what you gonna do about
it？
Now here's an exclusive：
I've wanted you for years.
I only needed the balls to admit it.
When the unbelievable object meets the unstoppable force
There's nothing you can do about it.
No.
I will light your cigarette with a star that has fallen from the
sky.
Breathe in, breathe out,
I love the way you move.
Don't let anyone tell you any different tonight.
You are beauty,
You are class,
You showed it all
But you still kept a little piece back just for me.
A little piece back just for me.
Just for me.
Oh i don't know how you do it
But i love the way you do it,
When you're doing it to me.
And if this is a dream then i'm going to sleep for the rest of
my life.
For the rest of my life.
For the rest of my life.
For the rest of my life.


55.Separations

As the sun shines down on the land,
So her heart is crying for love.
And there is no-one there,
No-one to hear her voice.
And she will sleep alone again tonight.
Now the moon is high in the sky.
In her room she calls out his name.
But he is somewhere else,
Somewhere she cannot see.
Oh, and the night is dark between them now,
'my god, my god, why did he go away？'
Now the sun shines on a new town.
With a smile he gets off the train.
He lights a cigarette,
Leans back to see the sky.
Oh and he thinks how much better off he is,
Without her hanging round.
Let's do it.
And the day is passing by him,
And he has nowhere to stay.
At a lonely bar-room table,
His mind goes back to yesterday,
To the girl who's dead and buried,
But her face lives in his eyes.
He must forget that face forever.
Make the future start tonight.
But the meal he eats is dead flesh.
There is cancer in his cigarettes.
And the drinks won't do a thing for him,
But revive some stupid memories.
Then a hairstyle that reminds him,
Makes him run into the night,
Where the moon hangs high above him now,
The same moon that she's praying on tonight.
But the wind catches her words.
And the moon swallows them whole.
Now the moon is high in the sky.
In her room she calls out his name.
The night is cold and dark, and she is all alone.
The bed is empty now.
Her body screams for love.
She wants to be with him.
Oh but he's so far away.
Oh and the night is dark between them now
'my god, my god, why did he go away？'


56.Set The Controls For The Heart Of The Pelvis

Written：barry adamson and jarvis cocker.
performed：barry adamson
With jarvis cocker on vocals.

(save me from my own hand)
Oooohhh, set the controls for the heart of the pelvis
Haven't you heard my name rhymes with elvis
And one thing i know is this
That your mouth is telling me to give you
A big kiss
(now my guard's down)

(save me from my own hand)
Ahhhh, can't you see what's an offer
Yeah babe it's going cheap today
I enter a room and all the girls say
C'mon jarv, can i be the first？
Oh you make us so hot we feel we're gonna burst
(now my guard's down)
Oh yeah...

So please, so please
Don't leave me alone in this double bed
It smells of damp towels and asthma inhalers
Say you're gonna call back later
Save me from these glossy photographs
Save me from my mother's laugh
Save me
(now my guard's down)
That's right girls
That's right girls
Save me from my own hand
Do you know how much
I want you？
Don't stop


57.Sheffield： Sex City

Intake, manor park, the wicker, norton, frechville,
hackenthorpe, shalesmoor,
Wombwell, catcliffe, brincliffe, attercliffe, ecclesall,
woodhouse, wybourn,
Pitsmoor, badger, wincobank, crookes, walkley, broomhill

The city is a woman
Bigger than any other
Oh, sophisticated lady
Yeah, i wanna be your lover
Not your brother, not your mother, yeah

The sun rose from behind the gasometers at six-thirty a.m.,
Crept through the gap in your curtains,
Caressed your bare feet poking from beneath the floral sheets.
I watched him flaking bits of varnish from your nails,
Trying to work his way up under the sheets.
Jesus!
Even the sun's on heat today
The whole city getting stiff in the building heat.

I just want to make contact with you
Oh that's all i wanna do
I just want to make contact with you
Oh that's all
I wanna do

Now i'm trying hard to meet her
But the fares went up at seven
She is somewhere in the city
Somewhere watching television
Watching people being stupid
Doing things she can't believe in
Love won't last 'til next installment
Ten o' clock on tuesday evening
The world is going on outside
The night is gaping open wide
The wardrobe and the chest of drawers
Are telling her to go outdoors
He should have been here by this time
He said that he'd be here by nine
That guy is such a prick sometimes
I don't know why you bother, really.

Oh babe
Oh i'm sorry
But i
I just had to make love to every crack in the pavement
And the shop doorways
And the puddles of rain that reflected your face in my eyes.

The day didn't go too well.
Too many chocolates and cigarettes.
I kept thinking of you and almost walking into lamp-posts.
Why's it so hot？
The air coming up to the boil
Rubbing up against walls and lamp-posts trying to get rid of it.
Old women clack their tongues in the shade of crumbling concrete
bus shelters.
Dogs doing it in central reservations
And causing multiple pile-ups in the centre of town.
I didn't want to go in the first place,
But i've been sentenced to three years in the housing benefit
waiting room.
I must have lost your number in the all-night garage,
And now i'm wandering up and down your street,
Calling you name,
In the rain,
Whilst my shoes turn to sodden cardboard.
Where are you？ (i'm here)
Where are you？ (i'm here)
Where are you？ (i'm here)
Where are you？ (i'm here)
Where are you？

I'm still trying hard to meet you
But it doesn't look like happening
Cos the city's out to get me
But i won't sleep with her this evening
Though her buildings are impressive
And her cul-de-sacs amazing
She's had too many lovers
And i know you're out there waiting
And now she's getting into bed
He's had his chance now it's too late
The carpet's screaming for her soul
The darkness wants to eat her whole
Tonight must be the night it ends
Tomorrow she will call her friends
And go out on her own somewhere
Who needs this shit anyway？
Oh listen,
I wandered the streets the whole night,
Trying to pick up your scent
Writing messages on walls
And the puddles of rain reflected your face in my eyes.

We finally made it...
On a hill-top at four a.m.
The whole city is your jewellery-box
A million twinkling yellow street lights.
Reach out and take what you want
You can have it all.
Jesus it took a long time.
I didn't think we were gonna make it.
So bad during the day,
But now snug and warm under an eiderdown sky.
Oh the things we saw：
Everyone on park hill came in unison at four-thirteen a.m.
And the whole block fell down.
The tobacconist caught fire,
And everyone in the street died of lung cancer.
We heard groans coming from the t-reg chevette;
You bet, you bet, yeah you bet.
And tomorrow...？

Oh i was trying hard to meet her
But the fares went up at seven
She was somewhere in the city
Somewhere watching television
Watching people being stupid
Doing things she can't believe in
Love won't last 'til next installment
Ten o'clock on tuesday evening
The world was going on outside
The night was gaping open wide
The wardrobe and the chest of drawers
Were telling her to go outdoors
He should have been there by that time
He said that he'd be there by nine
That guy is such a prick sometimes
Oh yeah,
I want to tell you that
There's nothing to worry about because we can,
We can get it together, oh yeah.
We got it together tonight, didn't we？
I'd say we did, yeah
We've got a hope.


58.She's A Lady

Are you trying to put me on？
I turned around and it was gone.
Did i leave it in your car？
On a table in a bar？
Or in your bed between the sheets？
The places where we used to meet.
Wherever love has gone i need to know.

Cos she's a woman,
Oh yeah, she's a woman.
Ma ma ma ma ma ma she's a lady.
And i just love the way she moves,
The way she moves, watch her.

When you left,
I didn't know how i was going to forget you.
I was hanging by a thread and then i met her.
Selling pictures of herself to german business men.
Well, that's all she wants to do.
Come on, come on.
I don't want to try too hard.
I don't want to wait too long.
I don't want to live alone,
With all this crap that pulls me down.
Oh, tell me now,
How would it feel,
If i could touch you once again.
Where have you gone, where have you gone.
The moon has gone down on the sun, oh yeah.
I know that you're coming home.
You wouldn't leave me on my own.
Everybody can't you see,
She's coming back to me.

Whilst you were gone i got along.
I didn't die,
I carried on
I went drinking every night
Just so i could feel alright.
Stayed in bed all day to feel ok.
I felt ok.
Oh i felt sick and tired,
Yes i did.
She lived at her father's place,
Played his records though they jumped.
Wore her body back to front.
I tried hard to make it work,
Kissed her where she said it hurt
But i was always underneath.

She's a woman,
Oh yeah, she's a woman.
Ma ma ma ma ma ma she's a lady.
And i just love the way she moves,
The way she moves, watch her.

I don't know why you pretend,
That it causes you pain,
When you know very well,
You're going to do it again.
You're going to do it again
And again
And again
But can you keep it going all nite long？
I know it's going to happen.
It might not be today.
It might not be tomorrow,
Or even the day after,
But some time soon, you'll see,
You're going to come back to me.

Whilst you were gone i got along.
I didn't die,
I carried on
I went drinking every night
Just so i could feel alright.
Stayed in bed all day to feel ok.
I felt ok.

Whilst you were gone i got along.
I didn't die, i carried on.
Oh yeah i went with other women,
What else can i say？
I guess i kind of missed you,
Whilst you were away.
Whilst you were gone.
(stop)


59.She's Dead

She's dying
Everybody came to see
She's falling
And i know i'll never see her face again
And i don't really know
Just why she's leaving
All she ever said
Was she just had to go
And i watch her
As she walks away from me
Yeah, i can see her
Then i know that in a moment she'll be gone
Yeah, she'll be gone and
And then i'll say
'you've got to understand
She's not really breathing
No not at all
Those years of endless rain
They just washed her away.'
Oh and i know she's leaving
Yeah she's going for good
Oh and i'd love to go with you
But i never would
Face it
You've blown it this time round
Now i understand
Just why she's leaving
Oh
If she'd have hung around with me
Well you know she'd never go, no nonono
Oh and i know she's leaving
Yeah, she's going for good
And i'd love to go with you
But i never would
Oh and i know she's leaving
Yeah, she's going for good
And i'd love to go with you
Oh but i never would
No i never would
No i never would
No i never would
Oh no
Dadadada dadada...
She's never coming back
Face it
She's gone
Oh
Lalalala lalala...
No i never would
No i never would.


60.Someone Like The Moon

She likes to watch the moon,
As it travels through the sky,
Cos she's heard that it's romantic,
Though she really can't see why.

Someone should have helped her through the day.
Someone like the moon.

So she drinks a cup of coffee,
And telephones a friend,
And she asks if she can make it,
So this night will never end.

Someone should have helped her through the day.
Someone like the moon.

But the light comes,
And the day bleeds through the sky,
And the sun,
The sun makes it hard to get through,
And the radio only plays love songs so she cries,
Though she knows it's such a bad thing to do.
In the evening it gets better,
And she thinks how it's not right,
That someone so stupid,
Can so easily screw up your life.

Someone should have helped her through the day.
Someone like the moon.

But the light came,
And the day bled through the sky,
And the sun, the sun made it hard to get through,
And the radio only played love songs so she cried,
Though she knew it's such a bad thing to do.
Can't you see？
Can't you see？
Someone should have helped her through the day.
Someone like the moon.


61.Space

You said you wanted some space
Well is this enough for you？
This is what you've waited for
No dust collecting in the corners
No cups of tea that got cold before you drank them
Tonight
Travelling at the speed of thought
We're going to escape into the stars
It doesn't matter if the lifts are out of order
Or the car won't start
We're rising up
Above the city
Over forests
Over fields
Rivers and lakes
Into the clouds
And up above us
The whole universe is shining a welcome
Did you ever really think this day would happen
After days trying to sell washing-machines on your own？
It looked like we never left the ground
But we're weightless
Floating free
We can go wherever we want
Solar systems
Constellations
Galaxies
I'll race you to the nearest planet
How many times have you wished upon a star？
Now you can touch it
You can touch the stars
Go on
Don't be afraid
'i only wanted some space'
Well is this enough for you？
Is it？
Well the stars are bright
But they don't give out any heat
The planets
Are lumps of rock
Floating in a vacuum
Yeah, space is cold
When you're on your own
I think it's time to go home
Pulling my strings
Like a kite that flew too high
And now it's time to come down
Look out below
Wait 'til i get back
You can see something
You can see space
But now i know
It's o.k.
Space is o.k.
But i'd rather
I'd rather get my
I'd rather get my kicks down below
Oh yeah
Come on


62.Srpski Jeb

Village maiden gathering mushrooms, down by woodland lakes and
brooks.
She don't want no soviet loves - all she wants is srpskijeb,
hoi!
Village maiden gathering mushrooms, down by woodland lakes and
brooks.
She don't want no soviet sex - all she wants is srpskijeb, hoi!


63.Styloroc(Nites Of Suburbia)

After many weeks in the wilderness we came upon a strange,
exotic land.
A land of happy hours,
Where the sky is always grey and the food exceptionally greasy.
We drank strange brown liquids,
And our stomachs swelled up like balloons.
A thousand fake orgasms every night
Behind thick dralon curtains.
They go on and on and on and on.
We sank back into mauve p.v.c. sofas.
Outside dogs roamed the streets
And the rooftops glistened in the rain
But now we've grown so fat we can no longer pass through the
door.
So stay we must,
Sprouting black hair beneath bri-nylon underwear.
Yes, here we will stay
These nights of suburbia go on and on and on and on and on.


64.Sunrise

I used to hate the sun because it shone on everything i'd done.
Made me feel that all that i had done was overfill the ashtray
of my life.
All my achievements in days of yore range from pathetic
To piss-poor, but all that's gonna change.
Because here comes sunrise. yeah, here's your sunrise.
I used to hide from the sun, tried to live my whole life
underground.
Why'd you have to rise ＆ ruin all my fun？
Just turned over, closed the curtains on the day.
But here comes sunrise.
Yeah, here's your sunrise when you've been awake
All night long ＆ you feel like crashing out at dawn.
But you've been awake all night, so why should you crash out at
dawn？


65.Sylvia

You look just like sylvia：
Well you look like her to me -
The way she wore her hair then.
Oh, he way she used to be.
I've not seen her for a long time
Though i've heard she's still around.
Her father's living with some girl
Who's a year younger than her.
She's living in the country now yeah.
Oh, she's trying to get better.
Her beauty was her only crime.
Yeah, i remember sylvia.

So keep believing
And do what you do,
I can't help you but i know things are gonna get better.
And please stop asking what it's got to do with you.
Oh, keep believing cos you know that you deserve better.

Who's this man you're talking to？
Can't you see what he wants to do？
He thinks if he stands near enough then he will look as good as
you.
Oh, he don't care about your problems.
He just wants to show his friends.
I guess i'm just the same as him -
I just didn't know it then.
I never understood you really
And i know it's too late now.
You didn't ask to be that way.
Oh, i'm sorry sylvia.

So keep believing
And do what you do,
I can't help you but i know things are gonna get better.
And please stop asking what it's got to do with you.
Oh, keep believing cos you know that you deserve better.
Yeah you know that you deserve better.
Oh sylvia.


66.That Boy's Evil

That boy's evil
That boy's evil
That boy's evil
Etc etc


67.The Boss

Wearing a shirt that was trying too hard,
Pissed on a train and he's falling around.
And then i turned around and you were out of sight,
And now there's nowhere for me to stay tonite.
And then i walked around town just to catch you out,
I thought i'd lost myself somewhere in the nite.
Oh is he bigger？ and does he make you laugh？
Mamamamamamamamamamamamamamamama let it go.
I could never do anything else,
So what am i gonna do with myself？
I saw him kiss you in the afternoon
Cos i was next door in a double room.
I was listening through the wall as he laid you down.
I don't know what you did,
Oh but i heard the sound.
Oh is he better？
Does he make you scream？
Mamamamamamamamamamamamamamamama let it go.
You've got to tell me know if he's better than me.
I need to know, oh can't you see？
Something strange is getting stronger.
I can't hang on any longer.
Don't you know i want to go away？
Oh jesus christ i know i'm gonna lose the game,
I've only got myself to blame, oh yeah.
Oh yeah.
All right.
I'm gonna leave town,
I'm gonna catch a train.
I'm going somewhere where i can start again.
I'm gonna let it all go just like you said,
I'll look for someone else who can take the blame.
And is he younger？
And can he make you laugh？
Mamamamamamamamamamamamamamamama let it go.
Oh, let it go.
After seven years down a dead-end road i'm gonna get off here,
I'm gonna let it go,
Let it go.


68.The Day After The Revolution

The dust has settled,
Replaces the bulbs in all the lights.
I guess i'll get no sleep tonight.
A revolution happened.
Oh, sorry, you haven't heard？
We are the children of the new world.
If you're quiet you can watch if you like.
They say the future's beginning tonight.
Whole empires will crumble.
Civilisations will fall.
Lie on the bed, hear the sound of it all.
No anger, no guilt and no sorrow;
It sounds unlikely, i know, but tomorrow
You will wake up to find that your whole life has changed.
Although nothing looks different
A revolution took place.
I love the way you do it.
I love the way you put them on.
You know the answers but you get it wrong.
(just to confuse things).
Why did it seem so difficult to realise a simple truth？
The revolution begins and ends with you.
Now all the breakdowns and nightmares look small.
Now we decided not to die after all.
Because the meek shall inherit absolutely nothing at all.
If you stopped being so feeble you could have so much more.
The answer was here all the time, you see.
Just how i missed it is a mystery to me.
I have waited and waited for this day to arrive.
The revolution was televised.
Now it's over, bye bye.
It's over, bye bye.
Yeah, we made it.
Just by the skin of our teeth.
Perfection is over
(the rave is over)
Sheffield is over.
The fear is over.
Guilt is over
(please leave the building quietly)
Bergerac is over.
The hangover is over
Men are over
Women are over.
Cholesterol is over.
Tapers are over.
Irony is over.
Bye bye.
Bye bye.


69.The Fear

This is our 'music from a bachelors den' -
The sound of loneliness turned up to ten.
A horror soundtrack from a stagnant water-bed
And it sounds just like this.
This is the sound of someone losing the plot -
Making out that they're okay when they're not.
You're gonna like it,
But not a lot
And the chorus goes like this：

Oh baby,
Here comes the fear again.
The end is near again.
A monkey's built a house on your back.
You can't get anyone to come in the sack
And here comes another panic attack
Oh here we go again.

So now you know the words to our song,
Pretty soon you'll all be singing along.
When you're sad, when you're lonely
And it all turns out wrong.
When you've got the fear.
And hen you're no longer searching
For beauty or love -
Just some kind of life
With the edges taken off.
When you can't even define what it is that you're frightened of
This song will be here.

Oh baby,
Here comes the fear gain.
The end is near again.
If you ever get that chimp off your back.
If you ever find the thing that you lack
But you know you're only having a laugh
And here we go again.
Until the end.


70.The Never-ending Story

When all should be done and gone,
He comes round again to see,
He can't keep himself away.
He touches her hand and it starts again.
His work is an ugly mess.
He prods and it cries in pain.
He kicks and it starts to scream.
He hurries away when she cannot see.
When all should be done and gone,
He comes round again to see,
He can't keep himself away.
He touches her hand and it
Starts again.
Moving so slowly,
Droplets of kindness
That poison and choke
When this thing should have died long ago.
The entrails are soft and warm,
This time it must be the end.
One touch and it lives again.
He keeps it alive to be part of its pain
And that's mercy.
And that's compassion.
And that's being good friends in a crisis.
What's one corpse between friends？
Oh
Oh-oh-oh...
Leave it, boy.
Just leave it alone.
Stop scratching, or it'll never heal.
Just let it lie in peace.
Get out of the way,
Get out of the way,
The brakes cannot last for long.
He knows he must let it go,
He knows but he keeps a hold.
He touches her hand and it
Starts again.
Ah!
Ah!
Ah!
Moving so slowly,
He drops it so gently,
Urging its life
To a peak to torment it again!


71.The Night That Minnie Timperley Died

'there's a light that shines on everything ＆ everyone.
And it shines so bright - brighter even than the sun'.
That's what minnie thinks as she walks to meet her brother,
Who is nearly two years older, on a saturday night.
He's dj-ing at some do on the edge of town on the night
That minnie timperley died.
It's such a beautiful world, you're such a beautiful girl.
So much that you want to try, the world wants to sleep with you
tonight.
But minnie, minnie if i could i would give you the rest of my
life.
How can a girl have sex with these pathetic teenage wrecks？
Football scarves, the girls drink halves ＆ her brother's crying
'cos he has lost his decks.
Outside the air was cool, an older guy sitting in his car asked
if minnie needed a ride.
He thought he was still dangerous - paunchy, but dangerous -
On the night that minnie timperley died.
It's such a beautiful world, you're such a beautiful girl.
And he only did what he did 'cos you looked like one of his
kids.
But minnie, minnie if i could i would give you the rest of my
life.
Minnie. oh, minnie i can feel the pain. oh yeah


72.The Trees

I took an air-rifle, shot a magpie to the ground ＆ it died
without a sound.
Your skin so pale against the fallen autumn leaves ＆
No-one saw us but the trees.
Yeah, the trees, those useless trees produce the air that i am
breathing.
Yeah, the trees, those useless trees; they never said that you
were leaving.
I carved your name with a heart just up above - now swollen,
Distorted, unrecognisable; like our love.
The smell of leaf mould ＆ the sweetness of decay
Are the incense at the funeral procession here, today.
In the trees, those useless trees, etc.
You try to shape the world to what you want the world to be.
Carving your name a thousand times won't bring you back to me.
Oh no, no i might as well go ＆ tell it to the trees.
Go ＆ tell it to the trees, yeah.


73.There's No Emotion

As i lay
Down in the bedroom,
There came a sound
From far away.
As i strained
My ears to listen
I could hear
A thin voice say：

'in your heart
There's no emotion,
And your soul,
Your soul just dried away.
There's no love,
No love left in your body;
Standing empty forever,
And colder
Every day.'

So i spent
A night without you,
Oh yes, i spent
A night outdoors.
Staring in
To unknown faces,
Trying to feel
Just like before.

In your heart
There's no emotion,
And your soul,
Your soul just dried away.
There's no love,
No love left in your body;
Standing empty forever,
And colder every day.

Oh yeah.
No i don't
Believe in voices,
Because i hear
Them all the time,
Scraping tears
From hardened faces
With their stupid ugly rhymes.

In your heart
There's no emotion,
And your soul,
Your soul just dried away.
There's no love,
No love left in your body;
Standing empty forever,
And colder every day.
Standing empty forever,
And colder every day.

And this is where the story starts,
Holding hands
That hold you forever,
Only love
Will keep you together.
Holding hands
That hold you forever,
Holding hands
That throw you forever
Away,
Away,
Oh.


74.This House Is Condemned

He's in a room
He sees the floor
He sees the wall
He sees the roof
He sees the door
It's nine thirty-eight
So he goes up to the door
And he finds himself in another room
Identical to the one before
The clock still reads nine thirty-eight
So he goes out of that room
But he finds himself in a parallel room
A mirror image of the one before
He hits the floor
He hits the wall
He hits the door
He hits the door
The clock reads nine thirty-eight
He throws it at the roof
He breaks a hole
He climbs out
He sees the moon
He sees the stars
He sees the sky
The stars are small lightbulbs
Set in a black cardboard dome
He climbs out
He sees the stars, he sees the sky
The stars are small lightbulbs
Set in a black cardboard dome
He hits the floor
He hits the wall
He hits the roof
He hits the dome

The clock reads nine thirty-eight
He hits the dome
Door, wall
Space, floor
Time
He sees the moon
He sees the stars
For some romantic reason

This is one small step for mankind
One giant leap for man

75.This Is Hardcore

You are hardcore, you make me hard.
You name the drama and i'll play the part.
It seems i saw you in some teenage wet dream.
I like your get-up if you know what i mean.
I want it bad.
I want it now.
Oh can't you see i'm ready now.
I've seen all the pictures, i've studied them forever.
I wanna make a movie so let's star in it together.
Don't make a move 'til i say 'action.'
Oh here comes the hardcore life.
Put your money where your mouth is tonight.
Leave your make-up on and i'll leave on the light.
Come over here babe and talk in the mic.
Oh yeah i hear you now.
It's gonna be one hell of a night.
You can't be a spectator. oh no.
You got to take these dreams and make them whole
Oh this is hardcore -
There is no way back for you.
Oh this is hardcore -
This is me on top of you
And i can't believe it took me this long.
That it took me this long.
This is the eye of the storm.
It's what men in stained raincoats pay for
But in here it is pure. yeah.
This is the end of the line.
I've seen the storyline played out so many times before.
Oh that goes in there.
Then that goes in there.
Then that goes in there.
Then that goes in there.
And then it's over.
Oh, what a hell of a show
But what i want to know：
What exactly do you do for an encore？
Cos this is hardcore.


76.Tv Movie

Without you my life has become a hangover without end.
A movie made for tv：
Bad dialogue, bad acting, no interest.
Too long with no story and no sex.
Is it a kind of weakness to miss someone so much？
To wish the day would go away？
Like you did yesterday.
Just like you did yesterday.
And i can't think of a way to get through this pain.
To be happy again to make it all alright
And i know it must be bad cos sitting here right now,
All i know is i can't even think,
I can't even think of anything clever to say.
So i say：
Why pretend any longer？
Cos i need you here with me.
It's obvious that i miss you so much
So please say you're gnna stay.
So please say you're gonna stay.
So please say you're gonna stay.
The night is getting darker now
And there's nothing on tv
But i'll sit tight
Til morning light.
Yeah, i'll wait until the day.
Until the day that you say you're gonna stay.


77.Weeds Ii(The Origin Of The Species)

This is the true story of the weeds：the origin of the species.
A story of cultivation, exploitation, civilization.
Found flowering on wasteland unnoticed, unofficial, accidental.
A cutting was taken but weeds do not thrive under hothouse
conditions ＆ wilt when in competition with more exotic strains.
A charming naivety, very short flowering season;
No sooner has the first blooming begun than decay sets in.
Bring your camera, take photo of life on the margins.
Offer money in exchange for sex ＆ then get a taxi home.
The story has always been the same
A source of wonder due to their ability to thrive on poor
quality soil offering very little nourishment
Drinking 'nurishment'.
But weeds must be kept under strict control or they will destroy
everything in their path.
Growing wild, then harvested in their prime ＆ passed around at
dinner parties.
Care for some weed？
So natural, so wild, so unrefined ＆ someone's gonna make a
fortune one day
If only they can market this stuff right.
Come on： do your dance.
Come on, do your funny little dance.
Germination. plantation. exploitation. civilization.
A sensational buzz - zzzzzz.
Crop rotation. genetic modification. the creation of
expectation. ultimate frustration.
This is the story of the weeds： the origin of the species.


78.Wickerman

Just behind the station, before you reach the traffic island, a
river runs thru' a concrete channel.
I took you there once; i think it was after the leadmill.
The water was dirty ＆ smelt of industrialisation
Little mesters coughing their lungs up ＆ globules the colour of
tomato ketchup.
But it flows. yeah, it flows.
Underneath the city thru' dirty brickwork conduits
Connecting white witches on the moor with pre-raphaelites down
in broomhall.
Beneath the old trebor factory that burnt down in the early
seventies.
Leaving an antiquated sweet-shop smell ＆ caverns of nougat ＆
caramel.
Nougat. yeah, nougat ＆ caramel.
And the river flows on.
Yeah, the river flows on beneath pudgy fifteen-year olds
addicted to coffee whitener
And it finally comes above ground again at forge dam： the place
where we first met.

I went there again for old time's sake
Hoping to find the child's toy horse ride that played such a
ridiculously tragic tune.
It was still there - but none of the kids seemed interested in
riding on it.
And the cafe was still there too
The same press-in plastic letters on the price list ＆ scuffed
formica-top tables.
I sat as close as possible to the seat where i'd met you that
autumn afternoon.
And then, after what seemed like hours of thinking about it
I finally took your face in my hands ＆ i kissed you for the
first time
And a feeling like electricity flowed thru' my whole body.
And i immediately knew that i'd entered a completely different
world.
And all the time, in the background, the sound of that
ridiculously heartbreaking child's ride outside.

At the other end of town the river flows underneath an old
railway viaduct
I went there with you once - except you were somebody else -
And we gazed down at the sludgy brown surface of the water
together.
Then a passer-by told us that it used to be a local custom to
jump off the viaduct into the river
When coming home from the pub on a saturday night.
But that this custom had died out when someone jumped
Landed too near to the riverbank
Had sunk in the mud there ＆ drowned before anyone could reach
them.
I don't know if he'd just made the whole story up, but there's
no way you'd get me to jump off that bridge.
No chance. never in a million years.

Yeah, a river flows underneath this city
I'd like to go there with you now my pretty ＆ follow it on for
miles ＆ miles, below other people's ordinary lives.
Occasionally catching a glimpse of the moon, thru' man-hole
covers along the route.
Yeah, it's dark sometimes but if you hold my hand, i think i
know the way.
Oh, this is as far as we got last time
But if we go just another mile we will surface surrounded by
grass ＆ trees ＆ the fly-over that takes the cars to cities.
Buds that explode at the slightest touch, nettles that sting -
but not too much.
I've never been past this point, what lies ahead i really could
not say.
I used to live just by the river, in a dis-used factory just off
the wicker
The river flowed by day after day
'one day' i thought, 'one day i will follow it' but that day
never came
I moved away ＆ lost track but tonight i am thinking about making
my way back.
I may find you there ＆ float on wherever the river may take me.
Wherever the river may take me.
Wherever the river may take us.
Wherever it wants us to go.
Wherever it wants us to go.


79.Your Sister's Clothes

I never thought that you would come
Your sister said your nerve had gone
You're trying to make it straight right now
But i don't think that you know how
Your sister knows
She wears your clothes
She laughs
At all those things you chose

Your sister knows
Takes off your clothes
We use your bed for goodness knows

I left something where i knew you'd find it
Lift your pillow and you'll see

And he's coming round today
Hey hey
Check out if you're still alive
Talking dirt won't change your life
Listen hard and you can hear her saying not to be so afraid
Loosen up and lay right down
Watch her as she's going down
It's easy when you stop pretending that you just got lost on the
way

I can't remember where we met
I can't remember what we said
I can't forget the things we did
When everything just seemed to fit

Your sister knows
She wears your clothes
She laughs at all those things you chose
Your sister knows
Takes off your clothes
We use your bed for goodness knows

She's says it's better with two
If you'd just stop being so stuck up

And he's coming round today
Hey hey
Check out if you're still alive
Talking dirt won't change your life
Listen hard and you can hear her saying not to be so afraid
Loosen up and lay right down
Watch her as she's going down
It's easy when you stop pretending that you just got lost on the
way

Try it; you might like it
But you might smudge your lipstick

And he's coming round today
Hey hey
Check out if you're still alive
Talking dirt won't change your life
Listen hard and you can hear her saying not to be so afraid
Loosen up and lay right down
Watch her as she's going down
It's easy when you stop pretending that you just got lost on the
way
Loosen up and lay right down
Watch her as she's going down
It's easy when you stop pretending that you just got lost on the
way
It's easy when you stop pretending that you'll never ever see
her
Yeah you've seen her going
Down (and down and down and down and down)
