2.Dear John

( gustafson / macauley )

Everybody was talking to me
Like i was a child
In their words i could hear them saying
It's just a matter of time
Anyway it's a long long race been run
Anyway it's a sad sad song been sung

Dear john goodbye she said
Sometimes it's hard she said
Dear john i've broken away

Vanity is hard old lady
You can't read her mind
I'm a fool but i don't fool easy
While you're foolin' around
Anyway i can hold my own tonight
I admit i was wrong and you where right

Dear john goodbye she said
Sometimes it's hard she said
Dear john i've broken away

Dear john goodbye she said
Sometimes it's hard she said
Dear john i've broken away

Dear john goodbye she said
Sometimes it's hard she said
Dear john i've broken away

Everybody was talking to me
Like i was a child
In their words i could hear them saying
It's just a matter of time
Anyway it's a long long race been run
Anyway it's a sad sad song been sung

Dear john goodbye she said
Sometimes it's hard she said
Dear john i've broken away

Dear john goodbye she said
Sometimes it's hard she said
Dear john i've broken away

Dear john goodbye she said
Sometimes..


3.Doesn't Matter


4.Get Out And Walk

( parfitt / bown )

I got
Fat knees
From crawlin so fast
I got
Sore lips
From kissin' your arse
I know
I don't want
Anymore part of you

I got
Brain pain
You make me so mad
I got
Black eyes
From fightin' your dad
I know
I don't want
Anymore part of you

Get out...get out
Get out and walk
Stop blowing kisses
Across the hall
Don't write me letters
And please don't call
Gimme me a break
Get out and walk

I got
Slipped discs
With you on my back
I got
Ulcers from swallowing crap
I know
I don't want
Anymore part of you

Get out...get out
Get out and walk
Stop blowing kisses
Across the hall
Don't write me letters
And please don't call
Gimme me a break
Get out and walk

Get out...get out
Get out and walk
Stop blowing kisses
Across the hall
Don't write me letters
And please don't call
Gimme me a break
Get out and walk


5.I Love Rock And Roll

( lancaster )

When i'm playing my old guitar
I know what i'm living for
'cos that's all i wanna do
Keep right on rocking you

I love rock and roll, in my heart and in my soul
I love rocking you, i love rock and roll

Bye bye johnny, i'm all shook up
Bebopalula, rock around the clock
You may or may not know
But you'll never rock alone

I love rock and roll, in my heart and in my soul
I love rocking you, i love rock and roll, yes i do

And i'm a ready teddy ready to rock
And i'm a ready teddy ready to roll
Come on let's shout it out aloud
I love rock and roll

I love rock and roll, in my heart and in my soul
I love rocking you, i love rock and roll, yes i do
I love rock and roll, in my heart and in my soul
I love rocking you, i love rock and roll, yes i do

I love rock and roll, in my heart and in my soul
I love rocking you, i love rock and roll, yes i do
I love rock and roll, in my heart and in my soul
I love rocking you, i love rock and roll

I love rock and roll, in my heart and in my soul
I love rocking you, i love rock and roll, yes i do
I love rock and roll, in my heart and in my soul
I love rocking you, i love rock and roll, yes i do


6.I Should Have Known


7.I Want The World To Know


8.Jealousy

( rossi / frost )

Just jealousy, my jealousy
Is what you see doing me
Jealous of me, such jealousy
It shouldn't be - leave me alone

Time is running out, out runs the time
I waste it on my own
But don't think i'm alone
Oh no, not again, i won't reply
I can't stay on the phone
I'll see you back at home
I really did think that problem was solved
But it is not

Just jealousy, my jealousy
Is what you see doing me
Jealous of me, such jealousy
It shouldn't be - leave me alone

I've got another one, listen to me
And don't get all hung on
To things i have done wrong
Oh no, not again, i won't reply
It's only how i feel
It sometimes seems unreal
But everybody gets there once in a while
Are you wishing?

Just jealousy, my jealousy
Is what you see doing me
Jealous of me, such jealousy
It shouldn't be - leave me alone
Just jealousy, my jealousy
Is what you see doing me
Jealous of me, such jealousy
It shouldn't be - leave me alone


9.Resurrection


10.She Don't Fool Me

( parfitt / bown )

I just recived a message from my mother
She asked me nicely not to bring the girl back home
She says that she's good-looking but she's crazy
Oh, but mama dear i knew it all along

She don't fool me
She thinks i only see what i wanna see
No, she don't fool me
She don't fool me

I needed someone i could call my mistress
To help me back from the fire to the frying pan
She's young enough to write me of as senile
But i'm old enough to read between the lines
She don't fool me
She thinks i only see what i wanna see
No, she don't fool me
She don't fool me

A very normal business transaction
Somehow turned into a daymare overnight
I know she knows i know she doesn't love me
She knows i know she knows it ain't working right

No, she don't fool me
She thinks i only see what i wanna see
Oh, she don't fool me
She thinks i only see what i wanna see
Oh, she don't fool me
She don't fool me


11.Young Pretender

( rossi / frost )

You thought that i would be so warm and tender
That love could be so very nice
I made a call to find suspicion on the line
Why couldn't you be all
I thought you wouldn't be a young pretender
Again too late i realise
The reasons now i find, conditions at the time
Did not allow for you to be

So don't you worry
I've got it all under control
Take time don't worry
I'm only halfway through a dream

Now love can really be so warm and tender
And can be oh so very nice
But not that way i said, too late too soon you said
Too soon, you said, too late to soon

So don't you worry
I've got it all under control
Take time don't worry
I'm only halfway through a dream

You thought that i would be so warm and tender
That love could be so very nice
I made a call to find suspicion on the line
Why couldn't you be all
I thought you wouldn't be a young pretender
A young pretender, be a young pretender
I thought you wouldn't be a young pretender
A young pretender, be a young pretender
I thought you wouldn't be a young pretender
A young pretender, be a young pretender..
