1.Advice For The Young At Heart

Advice for the young at heart
Soon we will be older
When we gonna make it work ?

Too many people living in a secret world
While they play mothers and fathers
We play little boys and girls
When we gonna make it work ?
I could be happy
I could be quite naive
It's only me and my shadows
Happy in our make believe
Soon...

And with the hounds at bay
I'll call your bluff
Cos it would be okay
To walk on tiptoes everyday

And when i think of you and all the love that's due
I'll make a promise, i'll make a stand
Cos to these big brown eyes, this comes as no surprise
We've got the whole wide world in our hands

Advice for the young at heart
Soon we will be older
When we gonna make it work ?

Love is promise
Love is a souvenir
Once given
Never forgotten, never let it disappear
This could be our last chance
When we gonna make it work ?
Working hour is over

And how it makes me weep
Cos someone sent my soul to sleep

And when i think of you and all the love that's due
I'll make a promise, i'll make a stand
Cos to these big brown eyes, this comes as no surprise
We've got the whole wide world in our hands

Advice for the young at heart
Soon we will be older
When we gonna make it work ?

Working hour is over
We can do anyhting that we want
Anything that we feel like doing
Advice...


2.Change

You walked in to the room
I just had to laugh
The face you wore was cool
You were a photograph
When it's all too late
It's all too late

I did not have the time
I did not have the nerve
To ask you how you feel
Is this what you deserve
When it's all too late
It's all too late

Change
You can change
And something on your mind
Became a point of view
You lost your honesty
I lost the life in you
When it's all too late
It's all too late
We walk and talk in time
I walk and talk in two
Where does the end of me
Become the start of you
When it's all too late
It's all too late

What has happened to
The friend that i once knew
Has he gone away


3.Everybody Wants To Rule The World

welcome to your life
There's no turning back
Even while we sleep
We will find you
Acting on your best behaviour
Turn your back on mother nature
Everybody wants to rule the world

It's my own design
It's my own remorse
Help me to decide
Help me make the most
Of freedom and of pleasure
Nothing ever lasts forever
Everybody wants to rule the world

There's a room where the light won't find you
Holding hands while the walls come tumbling down
When they do i'll be right behind you

So glad we've almost made it
So sad they had to fade it
Everybody wants to rule the world

I can't stand this indecision
Married with a lack of vision
Everybody wants to rule the world
Say that you'll never never never never need it
One headline why believe it ?
Everybody wants to rule the world

All for freedom and for pleasure
Nothing ever lasts forever
Everybody wants to rule the world


4.Head Over Heels

I wanted to be with you alone
And talk about the weather
But traditions i can trace against the child in your face
Won't escape my attention
You keep your distance with a system of touch
And gentle persuasion
I'm lost in admiration could i need you this much
Oh, you're wasting my time
You're just wasting time

Something happens and i'm head over heels
I never find out till i'm head over heels
Something happens and i'm head over heels
Ah don't take my heart
Don't break my heart
Don't throw it away

I made a fire and watching burn
Thought of your future
With one foot in the past now just how long will it last
No no no have you no ambition
My mother and my brothers used to breathe in clean in air
And dreaming i'm a doctor
It's hard to be a man when there's a gun in your hand
Oh i feel so...

Something happens and i'm head over heels

And this my four leaf clover
I'm on the line, one open mind
This is my four leaf clover


5.I Believe

I believe that when the hurting and the pain has gone
We will be strong, oh yes we will be strong
And i believe that if i'm crying while i write these words
Is it absurb ? or am i being real
I believe that if you knew just what these tears were for
They would just pour like every drop of rain
That's why i believe it is too late for anyone to believe

I believe that if you thought for a moment, took your time
You would not resign yourself to your fate
And i believe that if it's written in the stars, that's fine
I can't deny that i'm a virgo too
I believe that if your bristling while you hear this song
I could be wrong or have i hit a nerve ?
That's why i believe it is too late for anyone to believe

I believe that maybe somewhere in the darkness
In the nighttime, in the storm
In the casino
Casino spanish eyes
I believe, no i can't believe that every time you hear a new
born scream
You just can't see the shaping of a life
The shaping of a life


6.Laid So Low(Tears Roll Down)

Chewed the bone down too low
Got fed on tea and sympathy
Blew the sail like the wind
I wish you were my enemy
I was humble for you
What a fool i've been to have
Laid so low for so long

Into that void of silence
Where we cry without sound
Where tears roll down
Where tears roll down
And where your mother's violence
Sent your soul underground
Where tears roll down
Where tears roll down

Drew the blade way too slow
Was shackled by your honesty
Made a mess, i guess i have should have known
That life was lust and liberty
Not a chance mutation or the last temptation
Laid so low for so long, so low

Into that void of silence
Where we cry without sound
Where tears roll down
Where tears roll down
And where your mother's violence
Sent your soul underground
Where tears roll down
Where tears roll down


7.Mad World

All around me are familiar faces
Worn out places, worn out faces
Bright and early for their daily races
Going nowhere, going nowhere
And their tears are filling up their glasses
No expression, no expression
Hide my head I want to drown my sorrow
No tommorow, no tommorow

And I find it kind of funny
I find it kind of sad
The dreams in which I'm dying
Are the best I've ever had
I find it hard to tell you
'Cos I find it hard to take
When people run in circles
It's a very, very
Mad World

Children waiting for the day they feel good
Happy Birthday, Happy Birthday
Made to feel the way that every child should
Sit and listen, sit and listen
Went to school and I was very nervous
No one knew me, no one knew me
Hello teacher tell me what's my lesson
Look right through me, look right through me

And I find it kind of funny
I find it kind of sad
The dreams in which I'm dying
Are the best I've ever had
I find it hard to tell you
'Cos I find it hard to take
When people run in circles
It's a very, very
Mad World
Mad World
Mad World
Mad World

And I find it kind of funny
I find it kind of sad
The dreams in which I'm dying
Are the best I've ever had
I find it hard to tell you
'Cos I find it hard to take
When people run in circles
It's a very, very
Mad World
Mad World
Enlarging your world
Mad World


8.Mothers Talk

My features form with a change in the weather
Weekend
We can work it out
My features form with a change in the weather
Weekend
We can work it out
When the wind blows
When the mothers talk
When the wind blows
When the wind blows
When the mothers talk
When the wind blows
We can work it out

It's not that you're not good enough
It's just that we can make you better
Given that you pay the price
We can keep you young and tender
Following in the footsteps of a funeral pyre
You were paid not listen now your house is on fire

Wake me up when things get started
When everything starts to happen

My features form with a change in the weather

Some of us horrified
Others never talk about it
But when the weather starts to burn
Then you'll know that you're in trouble
Following in the footsteps of a soldier girl
It is time to put your clothes on and to face the world

Don't you feel your luck is changing
When everything starts to happen
Put your head right next to my heart
The beat of the drum is the fear of the dark

My features form with a change in the weather


9.Pale Shelter

How can i be sure ?
When your intrusion is my illusion
How can i be sure
When all the time you changed my mind
I asked for more and more
How can i be sure

When you don't give me love
You gave me pale shelter
You don't give me love
You give me cold hands
And i can't operate on this failure
When all i want to be is
Completely in command

How can i be sure
For all you say you keep me waiting
How can i be sure
When all you do is see me through
I asked for more and more
How can i be sure

I've been here before
There is no why, no need to try
I thought you had it all
I'm calling you, i'm calling you
I ask for more and more
How can i be sure


10.Shout

shout

Chorus
Shout
Shout
Let it aloud
These are the things i can do without
Come on
I'm talking to you
Come on
(repeat)

In violent times
You shouldn't have to sell your soul
In black and white
They really really ought to know
Those one track minds
That took you for a working boy
Kiss them goodbye
You shouldn't have to jump for joy
You shouldn't have to jump for joy

Chorus

They gave you life
And in return you gave them hell
As cold as ice
I hope we live to tell the tale
I hope we live to tell the tale

Chorus(x2)

And when you've taken down your guard
If i could change your mind
I'd really love to break your heart
I'd really love to break your heart

Chorus


11.Sowing The Seeds Of Love

High time we made a stand and shook up the views of the common
man
And the lovetrain rides from coast to coast
D.j.'s the man we love the most
Could you be, could you be squeaky clean
And smash any hope of democracry ?
As the headline says you're free to choose
There's egg on your face and mud on your shoes
One of these days they're gonna call it the blues

And anything is possible when you're sowing the seeds of love
Anything is possible - sowing the seeds of love

I spy tears in thier eyes
They look to the skies for some kind of divine intervention
Food goes to waste !
So nice to eat, so nice to taste
Politician grannie with your high ideals
Have you no idea how the majority feels ?
So without love and a promise land
We're fools to the rules of a goverment plan
Kick out the style ! bring back the jam !

Anything...
Sowing the seeds
The birds and the bees
My girlfriend and me in love

Feel the pain
Talk about it
If you're a worried man - then shout about it
Open hearts - feel about it
Open minds - think about it
Everyone - read about it
Everyone - scream about it !
Everyone
Everyone - read about it, read about it
Read in the books in the crannies and the nooks there are books
to read
Chorus !

(mr. england sowing the seeds of love)

Time to eat all your words
Swallow your pride
Open your eyes

High time we made a stand and shook up the views of the common
man
And the lovetrain rides from coast to coast
Every minute of every hour - ' i love a sunflower '
And i believe in lovepower, love power, lovepower !!!

Sowing the seeds
An end to need
And the politics of greed
With love


12.Woman In Chains

You better love lovin' and you'd better behave.
You better love lovin' and you'd better behave.
Woman in Chains.
Woman in Chains.

Calls her man the great white hope,
Says she's fine say's she'll always cope.
Ohh, Woman in Chains.
Woman in Chains.

Well, I feel lying and waiting is a poor man's deal,
(A poor man's deal)
And I feel hopelessly weighed down by your eyes of steel.
(Your eyes of steel)
Well it's a world gone crazy keeps a woman in chains,

Woman in Chains,
Woman in Chains,

Trades her soul as skin an bones
You'd better love lovin' and you'r better behave
Sells the only thing she owns.
You'd better love lovin' and you'd better behave

Woman in Chains
Woman in Chains

Made of stone
Made of stone
Ah, la la la
La la la la la la, ohhh.

Well, I feel deep in your heart there are words time can't heal,
(That time can't heal)
And I feel, somebody somewhere is trying to breath,
Well you know what I mean.
It's a world gone crazy keeps a woman in chains.

It's under my skin but out of my hands.
I'll tear it apart but I won't understand.
Will not except the greatness of man.
World gone crazy keeps a woman in chains,
Gone crazy, keeps a woman in chains

So free her
So free her
So free her
So free her
So free her...
The sun and the moon
Will never end.
So free her
So free her
So free her
So free her
The sun and the moon
Will never end.
