The Beta Band Unreleased Songs Lyrics
1.Gone

Lyricist:Richard Greentree, Robin Jones, John Maclean, Stephen Mason

Hey now sister won't you come and bless my soul
I been a long time comin' down the mountainside
You see I fell from a spaceship only stuck here for a little
while
And I'd very much like to fall in love with you

If you would, if you would, if you would
I'd like to know, will you think of me when I'm gone?
When I'm gone when I'm gone when I'm gone

Sister live a long time I don't want to fight with you
See my head's in a vice and I don't know who I am in the mornin'
And when I wake in the mornin' and I look through my window
I see sun skies sand sea would you fill your heart with me?

If you would, I'd like to know
Will you think of me when I'm gone?
When I'm gone, when I'm gone, when I'm gone
When I'm gone, when I'm gone, when I'm gone
When I'm gone


2.Simple Boy

Lyricist:Richard Greentree, Robin Jones, John Maclean, Steve Mason

Well, I'm a hunchback, super black tower block core
Fine tooth whale bait cowering boom bait
Simple boy, simple girl, simple world, so I heard

Landing down feet first Smokey Joe cheeba thirst
Hairy back tracker side step a little further on the
Floor for the more, for the more more

She's a coward she's a cheat and she speaks
She's a coward she's a cheat and she speaks
My mother of Earth, where are you when we need you?
My mother of Earth, where are you when we need you?

Little did you know that who said that
Silver ship floating on a coker smack bloating
Ride around the rock on the face of the clock
It's a shrill ringing singing in a pig pen mission
So she said, so she said

She's a coward she's a cheat and she speaks
She's a coward she's a cheat and she speaks
My mother of Earth, where are you when we need you?

So old the time, so young the boy
Why do they scream? Why do they boil?
It's all unknown I must perform
The window ledge to which I'm drawn

The ocean which I try to swim
Stretches out and sucks me in
It's all superoceanic ministerial divinity
36 Chambers in this vicinity

She's a coward she's a cheat and she speaks
She's a coward she's a cheat and she speaks
My mother of Earth, where are you when we need you?
My mother of Earth, where are you when we need you?
My mother of Earth, where are you when we need you?


3.Number 15

Lyricist:Richard Greentree, Robin Jones, John Maclean, Steve Mason

You tell me we never talk
And I won't share my thoughts
Then you hate my point of view
Because I don't agree with you

I've got 15 reasons not to spend my life with you
(25 reasons why I wouldn't want to)
You love me with your lazy eye
Tell me not to do the things I do
(You're so lazy that you never do do)

You say that I'm a crazy guy
When it's clearly you who is cuckoo
I've got 15 reasons not to spend my life with you
(35 reasons why I wouldn't want to)

You're always telling me I drink too much
Then you're happy when we're apart
If I say we should be that way
You say you wouldn't live another day

I've got 15 reasons not to spend my life with you
(25 reasons why I wouldn't want to)
You love me with your lazy eye
Tell me not to do the things I do
(You're so lazy that you never do do)

You say that I'm a crazy guy
When it's clearly you who is cuckoo
I've got 15 reasons not to spend my life with you
(25 reasons why I wouldn't want to)

Say it's your friend's birthday
And I think your friends a fool
I don't wanna go so you say
I think I'm cool

15 reasons not to spend my life with you
You love me with your lazy eye
Tell me not to do the things I do

You say that I'm a crazy guy
When clearly it's you who is cuckoo
15 reasons not to spend my life with you

You stink of cigarette juice
I beg you to stop it's no use
I ask you to step outside
And you blow it deeper into my mind

I've got 15 reasons not to spend my life with you
(25 reasons why I wouldn't want to)
You love me with your lazy eye
Tell me not to do the things I do
(You're so lazy that you never do do)

You say that I'm a crazy guy
When it's clearly you who is cuckoo
I've got 15 reasons not to spend my life with you
(25 reasons why I wouldn't want to)

You tell me we never talk
And I won't share my thoughts
Then you hate my point of view
Because I don't agree with you

15 reasons not to spend my life with you
(25 reasons why I wouldn't want to)
You love me with your lazy eye
Tell me not to do the things I do
(You're so lazy that you never do do)

You say that I'm a crazy guy
When it's clearly you who is cuckoo
15 reasons not to spend my life with you
(25 reasons why I wouldn't want to)

15 reasons not to spend my life with you
(25 reasons why I wouldn't want to)
You love me with your lazy eye
Tell me not to do the things I do
(You're so lazy that you never do do)

You say that I'm a crazy guy
When it's clearly you who is cuckoo
I've got 15 reasons not to spend my life with you
(35 reasons why I wouldn't want to)
Hello


4.The Hard One

Lyricist:Richard Greentree, Robin Jones, John Maclean, Steve Mason,
Jim Steinman

Listen to me when I go outside
I have an opposite reaction in my mind
Blood clots up and my eyes look down
Mouth never changes from a darkened frown

Pulse starts jumping and feet won't move
Seventy quid for these new shoes
Heart beat pumping and move the floor
Head is banging on a darkened door

Once upon a time I was falling apart
Now I'm always falling in love

Once upon a time I was falling apart
Now I'm always falling in love

Once upon a time I was falling apart
Now I'm always falling in love

Once upon a time I was falling apart
Now I'm always falling in love

Once upon a time I was falling apart
Now I'm always falling in love
Once upon a time I was falling apart
Now I'm only falling in love


5.It's Not Too Beautiful

Lyricist:John Barry, Richard Greentree, Robin Jones, John Maclean,
Steve Mason

You like to feel that I will float away someday
I cried the hundredth time things never came my way
But I will find
But I will find

Who's going to shake the corners of my mind today?
What's in those dusty rooms I fear for in every way?
But I will find
But I will find

It's not too beautiful me now?
It's not too beautiful me now?
It's not too beautiful me now?
It's not too beautiful me now?

You like to feel that I will float away someday
I cried the hundredth time things never came my way
But I will find
But I will find

Who's going to shake the corners of my mind today?
What's in those dusty rooms I fear for in every way?
But I will find
But I will find

(Every time I lose my mind I die, but)
It's not too beautiful me now?
(Every time I lose my mind I die, but)
It's not too beautiful me now?
(Every time I lose my mind I die, but)
It's not too beautiful me now?
(Every time I lose my mind I die, but)
It's not too beautiful me now?


6.Dry the Rain

Lyricist:Gordon Anderson, Steven Duffield, Robin Jones, John Maclean,
Stephen Mason

This is the definition of my life
Lying in bed in the sunlight
Choking on the vitamin tablet
The doctor gave in the hope of saving me
In the hope of saving me

Walked in the corner of the room
Junk yard fool with eyes of gloom
I asked him time again

Take me in and dry the rain
Take me in and dry the rain
Take me in and dry the rain
Take me in and dry the rain, the rain
The rain, the rain, the rain, the rain now

Dusty brown boots in the corner by the ironing board
Spray on dust is the greatest thing
Sure is the greatest thing
Since the last, since the last

Walked in the corner of the room
Junk yard fool with eyes of gloom
I asked him time again

Take me in and dry the rain
Take me in and dry the rain
Take me in and dry the rain
Take me in and dry the rain, the rain
The rain, the rain, the rain, the rain now

I asked him time again
Take me in and dry the rain
Take me in and dry the rain
Take me in and dry the rain
Take me in and dry the rain, the rain
The rain, the rain, the rain, the rain now

If there's something inside that you wanna say
Say it out loud it'll be okay
I will be your light
I will be your light
I will be your light
I will be your light

If there's something inside that you wanna say
You can say it out loud it'll be okay
I will be your light
I will be your light
I will be your light
I will be your light

I need love, yeah
I need love

If there's something inside that you wanna say
Say it out loud it'll be okay
I will be your light
I will be your light
I will be your light
I will be your light

If there's something inside that you wanna say
Say it out loud it'll be okay
I will be your light
I will be your light
I will be your light
I will be your light

If there's something inside that you wanna say
Say it out loud it'll be okay
I will be your light
I will be your light
I will be your light
I will be your light

If there's something inside that you wanna say
Say it out loud it'll be okay
I will be your light
I will be your light
I will be your light
I will be your light


7.Dragon

Lyricist:Carlos Diernhammer, Egon L Frauenberger, Richard Greentree,
Robin Jones, John Maclean, Stephen Mason

Jumpin' up and down and foolin' around
Is it ever any wonder that you get knocked down?
Comin' down fast gonna pass you on the right
I loved you before but now I turn in the night
Why, you never seem to try, why, you never seem to try

Moving down the way and getting lost, blackness is a place in my
mind
The less that you know is the more that you learn
Is there any point in knowledge when you're old and infirm
Why, you never seem to try, why, you never seem to try

I've never been the type to sing all night but, aah
I've never been the type to sing all night but, aah
I've never been the type to sing all night but, aah

Sitting on your bed being balanced on your head, rolling back
those fears
The loose lipped trouble dutch double on the monkey
You can see it on his face when you hear it in his voice
Why, you never seem to try, why, you never seem to try
Why, you never seem to try

I've never been the type to sing all night but, aah
I've never been the type to sing all night but, aah
I've never been the type to sing all night but, aah
I've never been the type to sing all night but, aah

How the West was won, it's a lie but it's made to sound like fun
How the West was won, it's a lie but it's made to sound like fun
How the West was won, it's a lie but it's made to sound like fun
How the west was won


8.Round the Bend

Lyricist:Richard Greentree, Robin Jones, John Maclean, Steve Mason

I'm going totally round the bend
I don't want to see my friends
I don't want to see my mad friend
Because he's driving me insane

I don't want to see my friends
I'm going totally round the bend
Earlier on today I tried to walk down the street
But my feet kept slipping on the pavement

I find myself at 90 degrees to the rest of the world
It's not much fun you can take it from me

I'm not having too good a time
There's people worse off than me
Don't think I don't realize that
But I'm going round the bend again
The last thing I wanna do is see my friends again
I'm going quietly round the bend again

I try to function as a normal human being
I washed my car earlier on this evening
And now I'm trying to get it together to cook a little meal
Before I go for a drink with my friends

But I've got no food
I've got no time to go to the supermarket
It's not that I couldn't make time
It's more I get confused when I get there

People walking past see the green trees outside
They see a nice little flat and imagine the person inside
Is having a great old time
Well I wish I was having a good a time as
They possibly imagine that I'm having

All I wanna do is go far away
And see things I've never seen before
Like the Pyramids they weren't built in a day you know
Those 4th dynasty pyramids just don't fit into the equation

But I'm so paranoid, I can't even make it to the supermarket
Let alone go to Egypt to see my favorite pyramid
Now I'm going to go round to Robin's and try to eat some food
there
Sometimes it eats better if you're in the company of men
He's just said he's had a glass of red wine, so I might have
mine

I listened to the Beach Boys just a minute ago
'Wild Honey' it's not their best album but it's still pretty
good
They've got some funny little love songs on there
But its not mainly a Brian Wilson production
So it's probably not as good as something like 'Pet Sounds'

I'm going totally round the bend
I don't wanna see my friends again
I just want to be left alone
And never bothered ever again
Never again, never again, never again
Ever again, ever again


9.Push It Out

Lyricist:Richard Greentree, Robin Jones, John Maclean, Steve Mason

Push it out
Push it out
Push it out

I wanna beat ya, wanna hug ya, wanna hold ya to me
Gone to hell, that's where I'll be
I'll be fine, then come with me
With a double shot of power and he's over me


10.Human Being

Lyricist:Richard Greentree, Robin Jones, Carol King, John Maclean,
Stephen Mason, Toni Stern

She took me on a Monday, that's what I like to see
Took me on a Tuesday, that's what it meant to be
Took me on a Wednesday, I wouldn't want to say
Going on Thursday, is there any other way?

She spoke me on Friday
She's gonna break your neck
Saturday comes around

I thought I'd make it Sunday but I didn't see it coming
running
I only want to count the days, to say we made another day
Daytime seems to last too long, at nights I scream and live
alone

Some peace of mind for the girl inside
Some little peice for the men who hide
Some peace of mind for the girl inside
Some little peice for the men who hide

We might just break, can you hear us crying?
We might just break, can you see us crying?
We might just break, can you hear us crying?
We might just break, can you see us crying?

I find it very hard to say what I see
I'm going through my mind when she's looking up at me
Of all the things I've said right now for both of us came true
Who will look for me when I disappear in you?

It's never very clear just who's in control
It's all so beautiful, what's the point of it all
I only want to count the days to say we made another day
Daytime seems to last too long, at nights I scream and live
alone

Some peace of mind for the girl inside
Some little peice for the men who hide
Some peace of mind for the girl inside
Some little peice for the men who hide

We might just break, can you hear us crying?
We might just break, can you see us crying?
We might just break, can you hear us crying?
We might just break, can you see us crying?

We might just break, can you hear us crying?
We might just break, can you see us crying?
We might just break, can you hear us crying?
We might just break, can you hear us crying?

We might just break, can you hear us crying?
We might just break, can you hear us crying?
We might just break, can you hear us crying?
We might just break, can you see us crying?


11.Dogs Got a Bone

Lyricist:Gordon Anderson, Steven Duffield, Robin Jones, John Maclean,
Stephen Mason

Dog's got a bone, all of his own
Wednesday morning, middle of the road
Can't help this feeling, of feeling so alone
Gotta go home now, dog's got a bone now

Listen you will see, coming on in to me
Listen you will see, coming on in to me
Listen you will see that we are climbing
Listen you will see that we are climbing

I wish you were here, tied to the pier
Words disappear, every time you call me
So won't you come home now
If you're feeling so alone now
And dog's got a bone and all of his own now

Listen you will see, coming on in to me
Listen you will see, coming on in to me
Listen you will see that we are climbing
Listen you will see that we are climbing

Listen you will see, coming on in to me
Listen you will see, coming on in to me
Listen you will see that we are climbing
Listen you will see that we are climbing

Yeah, do, do, do
Yeah, do, do, do
Yeah, do, do, do
Yeah, do, do, do

Yeah, do, do, do
Yeah, do, do, do
Yeah, do, do, do
Yeah, do, do, do

Yeah, do, do, do
Yeah, do, do, do

Falling on your face with a little white safe
Falling on your face with a little white safe
Falling on your face with a little white safe


12.Alleged

Oh, Ma, there's a hole in my head
Used the bullets that come
With the gun you gave me

Shine a light into my head
See the place where we were gonna live
Before you ran off with your spaceman
Left me here without a place for us

Oh, Ma, there's a hole in my head
Used the bullets that come
With the gun you gave me

Used to be funny when you told me jokes
Layin' around, you and me both
When I try to remember my favorite one
All I get's a vision of the gun imagine

Oh, Ma, there's a hole in my head
Used the bullets that come
With the gun you gave me

Yes, it's true, I love you
How does it feel without me?

I don't know what you're gonna do
I don't know where you're gonna go
I don't know who you want to see
I don't know who you want to be

I don't know why I want to know
I don't know why you didn't show
I don't know why I didn't see
I don't know why I didn't leave


13.Brokenupadingdong

Lyricist:Richard Greentree, Robin Jones, John Maclean, Steve Mason

Falling down the road in the middle of the light
That don't mean it's gonna be alright
Falling down the road in the middle of the light
Say to myself 'You're gonna be here all night'

Try to find myself and go
That way I know I see I'll never go slow
Try to find myself and go
That way you know you see you'll never go slow

See yourself on a thousand times
I'm trying make myself, I'm never gonna cry
You know the way in the day I fall
I never know that I could love I felt so hard
Hard and hard and hard and hard

This way and that way, this way and that way
This way and that way, this way and that way
This way and that way, this way and that way
This way and that way, this way and that way

This way and that way, this way and that way
This way and that way, this way and that way
This way and that way, this way and that way
This way and that way, this way and that way

How you know when the river don't flow
Try to walk around my house
How you know when the river don't flow
Try to walk around my house
How you know when the river don't flow
Try to walk around my house
How you know when the river don't flow
Try to walk around my house

How you know when the river don't flow
Try to walk around my house
How you know when the river don't flow
Try to walk around my house
How you know when the river don't flow
Try to walk around my house
How you know when the river don't flow
Try to walk around my house


14.Broke (Radio Edit)

Lyricist:Richard Greentree, Robin Jones, John Maclean, Stephen Mason

See my friends across the red sky
Why don't they fly?
Simple truth is all I ask for
But no reply

And you won't cry for me
I'm twisting around my own head
Falling around for me

You won't cry for me
I'm twisting around my own head
Falling around for me

You won't cry for me
I'm twisting around my own head
Falling around for me

You won't cry for me
I'm twisting around my own head
Falling around for me

Sitting in a tunnel watching other people go home
A night alone, watching other people going home
I try to see it from the other side
She loves me but she knows I slide all night

And you won't cry for me
I'm twisting around my own head
Falling around for me

You won't cry for me
I'm twisting around my own head
Falling around for me

You won't cry for me
I'm twisting around my own head
Falling around for me

You won't cry for me
I'm twisting around my own head
Falling around for me


15.Needles In My Eyes

Lyricist:Richard Greentree, Robin Jones, John Maclean, Steve Mason

Last night it was so good
I felt like crying, I felt crying
Last night though you looked so cold
I felt like smiling, smiling while I'm dying

Last night you looked so good
I felt like crying, felt like crying
Last night though you looked so old
I felt like smiling, smiling while I'm dying

You left me cold, you left me cold
You left me cold, you left me cold

Needles in my eyes won't cripple me tonight, alright
Twisting up my mind please pull me through the light, alright
Needles in my eyes won't cripple me tonight, alright
Twisting up my mind please pull me through the light, alright

Last night I dropped my heart
And I never wanna see it again
Getting tighter with you all the time
I think I'm gonna my buckle my spine

I crept in and I stole your mind
I think, I'm having trouble with mine
Crept in and I stole your mind
I think, I'm having trouble with mine

You left me cold, you left me cold
You left me cold, you left me cold

Needles in my eyes won't cripple me tonight alright
Twisting up my mind please pull me through the light, alright
Needles in my eyes won't cripple me tonight alright
Twisting up my mind please pull me through the light, alright


16.Dr Baker

Lyricist:Richard Greentree, Robin Jones, John Maclean, Stephen Mason

Dr. Baker phoned me in the morning
Left a note, he's still yawning
Dr. Baker phoned me in the morning
Left a note, she couldn't make it
How did she ever take a lesson outside his head?

Dr. Baker phoned me in the morning
He couldn't understand, he was a busy man
Tried to reach him again, plead with him
Please come, please come, please come
Please come, please come, please come

See me lost inside
You will see me lost how high
See me lost inside
You will see me lost how high

See me lost inside
You will see me lost how high
See me lost inside
You will see me lost how high

Hovering on, hovering on, hovering on
Hovering on, hovering on, hovering on
I'm a hovering on, hovering on, hovering on
Hovering on, hovering on, hovering on

Dr. Baker phoned me again later that day
Said he cried and he really sounded out of it
His wife was dead and his dog was dead
And misery planned inside his head

I tried to reason with him, tried singing
He said 'No, boy, you'll never listen'
Try it again, try it again
Try it again, again, again

See me lost inside
You will see me lost how high
See me lost inside
You will see me lost how high

See me lost inside
You will see me lost how high
See me lost inside
You will see me lost how high

Hovering on, hovering on, hovering on
Hovering on, hovering on, hovering on
I'm a hovering on, hovering on, hovering on
I'm a hovering on, hovering on, hovering on
I'm a hovering on, hovering on, hovering on

I'm a hovering on
I'm a hovering on


17.Assessment

Lyricist:Richard Anthon Greentree, Robin Jones, Stephen Mason, John
Mclean

I think I cracked my skull on the way down
I think I lost my head when I lay down
The fear facts presented in the cold light of day

I say, the time has come for decision
Better steer my boat for a reason
Lost on the way, I went over horizon
She went out of sight, the girl lost me a lifetime


I say, the time has come for decision
Better steer my boat for a reason
Lost on the way, I went over horizon
She went out of sight, the girl lost me a lifetime


I think, I cracked my skull on the way down
I think, I lost my head when I lay down
The fear facts presented in the cold light of day

And when I step back from all this, I see that I'm fighting
I can't help myself, there's no reason for lying
Truth and fiction they all become one
Help me from the sea to the beach, to the la


18.Simple

Lyricist:Richard Anthon Greentree, Robin Jones, Stephen Mason, John
Mclean

It's a Tuesday night and I can't be
With the people that I love tonight
Left me alone and I can't forgive them
I guess I'll be on my own

I tried to see it their way, I tried to be alone
I tried to do my own thing
But the trouble with your own thing
Is you end up on your own

It's a Tuesday night and again I seem
To be on my own for the second night in a row
Simple lesson here is to try and find a friend
To try and find a friend, to try and find a friend

Can you hear me? Can you hear me?
Can you hear me? Can you hear me?
Can you hear me? Can you hear me?
Can you hear me? Can you hear me?

It's a Tuesday night and I can't be
With the people that I love tonight
Left me alone and I can't forgive them
I guess I'll be on my own

Can you hear me? Can you hear me?
Can you hear me? Can you hear me?
Can you hear me? Can you hear me?
Can you hear me? Can you hear me?

I tried to see it their way, I tried to be alone
I tried to do my own thing
But the trouble with your own thing
Is you end up on your own

You end up on your own
You end up on your own


19.To You Alone

Lyricist:Richard Greentree, Robin Jones, John Maclean, Steve Mason

If you could look at me from above my feet
I'll have you back in time for me, don't look back for me
There's not a lottery for you in there
Guitar in hand, hold it like a song man


I'm sending out, I'm sadder now
Before the sky will fall on yer, who's calling yer
A black box inside my mind
Records the time we spent together

Across the universe to you alone
The universe, are you alone

Are you alone
Are you alone
Are you alone
Are you alone

I'm a singin' like a fool
I'm a singin' like a fool
I'm a singin' like a fool
I'm a singin' like a fool

She's like the snow capped trees in my jigsaw
Lose at the seams within fear of your dreams
She's like a fool you meet at the hot store
Hand in the pale and the blacker the veil
The blacker the veil

I'm a singin' like a fool
I'm a singin' like a fool
I'm a singin' like a fool
I'm a singin' like a fool

I'm sending out, I'm sadder now
Before the sky will fall on yer, who's calling yer
A black box inside my mind
Records the time we spent together

Across the universe to you alone

Are you alone
Are you alone
Are you alone
Are you alone
Are you alone
Are you alone

I'm a singin' like a fool
I'm a singin' like a fool
I'm a singin' like a fool
I'm a singin' like a fool
I'm a singin' like a fool

I'm a singin' like a fool
I'm a singin' like a fool
I'm a singin' like a fool
I'm a singin' like a fool
I'm a singin' like a fool


20.The Cow's Wrong

Lyricist:Richard Greentree, Robin Jones, John Maclean, Steve Mason,
Harry Nillson

I went down to the county drug store
I fought with the county law
I went out with my little boy and I told him
Hun, I can't see you no more

Cows in the field were silent
The sun lay in an orange bag
The wind blew round an island
People could never get back

My dog, my dog, my little black dog
He took a ride on the cookie train
He couldn't handle the pain
Took a ride on the cookie train

Went back to the shops yesterday
To look at the big blue eyes
She was passing me by
She was passing me by

She was passing by little me
She had love in her eyes, I could see alright
I went to select the 'Savers Fruits'
I had designs on a grapefruit tree

Walking around on a slap on a slope
Somebody said to me
They said how doodly do to you little boy
Would like the cow to get you some food

You know anytime you can come on home
And I know that you rather would
There's nobody here but me and the holding iron
Nobody rising getting high on the wire

Nobody rising getting high on the wire
Nobody rising getting high on the wire
Nobody rising getting high on the wire
Nobody rising getting high on the wire

Nobody rising getting high on the wire
Nobody rising getting high on the wire
High on the wire

I sucked up my room it's in the hoover
I fucked up my life it's in the glue pot
And I ran down the road, kicked my shoes in the air
And I slipped and fell in dog shit

Summertime, summertime
Summertime, summertime
Summertime, summertime
Summertime, summertime

Running up and down
(I fucked it up)
Running up and down
(I fucked it up)
Running up and down
(I fucked it up)
...


21.Easy

Lyricist:Richard Anthon Greentree, Robin Jones, Stephen Mason, John
Mclean

Sometimes I can be up like that
Sometimes I can be down like that
When I don't cross myself with you

Sometimes I can be up like that
When I don't cross myself with you
Sometimes I can be down like that
When I don't cross myself with you

Sometimes I can be up like that
When I don't cross myself with you
Sometimes I can be down like that
When I don't cross myself with you

Dysmorphic in doses
Imagine trying to shit out twelve red roses
It's how I do but not everybody knows it
Imagine how I'd feel to be called a promotionalist
A mitt man, an emotionalist
When I don't cross myself with you

Sometimes I can be up like that
When I don't cross myself with you
Sometimes I can be down like that
When I don't cross myself with you

Some kind, psychosis
Don't what you call it, oneness might be the closest
A psychotropic segment so tasteless
It tastes sweet
And then it changes
When I don't cross myself with you

Sometimes I can be up like that
When I don't cross myself with you
Sometimes I can be down like that
When I don't cross myself with you

Sometimes I can be up like that
When I don't cross myself with you
Sometimes I can be down like that
When I don't cross myself with you

Sometimes I can be up like that
When I don't cross myself with you
Sometimes I can be down like that
When I don't cross myself with you

She's so wonderful
She's so wonderful

In time you realize
It's all for you, I do
In time you realize
It's all for you, I do
In time you realize

She's so wonderful

And if I see her tonight
Will I leave her alone now?
And if you see her tonight
Will you tell her I love her?

She's so wonderful

23.Troubles

Lyricist:Richard Anthon Greentree, Robin Jones, Stephen Mason, John
Mclean

It's about time that we fell in love
You know that I've been trying
It's about time that we had a laugh
You know that I've been crying

Too many people, too many troubles
Too many mouths are lying
If everybody laughed for just one day
You know that'd make me happy

Too many troubles, too many troubles
Don't know how we live so long
Too many troubles, too many troubles
It's time for us to live and laugh

It's about time that I said hello
To all those lonely people
When I was at the back who could never talk back
Through all the tears and sadness

You never really know who's there beside you
Who will be your comfort
If everybody laughed for just one day
You know that'd make you happy

Too many troubles, too many troubles
Don't know how we live so long
Too many troubles, too many troubles
It's time for us to live and laugh


24.Out-Side

Lyricist:Richard Anthon Greentree, Robin Jones, Stephen Mason, John
Mclean

Cried so loud the song today
The devil knows I couldn't get far
Went to the beach but I couldn't find the path
Tried to catch a train but it wasn't where I went
Wanted to catch a plane but it wasn't where I flew

I love your way
I love your way

Wished I had the heart to presume
Or take it out-side
Take it out-side just to catch a little rain
Catch a little rain just to pour a little ride

(I'm a-dreaming, I'm a-dreaming, I'm a-dreaming, I'm a-dreaming)
I love your way
(I'm a-dreaming, I'm a-dreaming, I'm a-dreaming, I'm a-dreaming
of you)
I love your way

And it seems so very simple
That I don't think that I can tell you
And the knocking on my cranium
Reminds me of a travel drum
Makes it sound a simple feeling
Can we go around a-dreaming

(I'm a-dreaming, I'm a-dreaming, I'm a-dreaming, I'm a-dreaming)
I love your way
(I'm a-dreaming, I'm a-dreaming, I'm a-dreaming, I'm a-dreaming)
I love your way

(I'm a-dreaming, I'm a-dreaming, I'm a-dreaming, I'm a-dreaming)
I love your way
(I'm a-dreaming, I'm a-dreaming, I'm a-dreaming, I'm a-dreaming)
I love your way

I love your way
I love your way


25.Lion Thief

Lyricist:Richard Greentree, Robin Jones, Stephen Mason, John Mclean

I lied to this man as I called him a friend
He fell as I tripped him, he won't smile again
The fruits of the loops of the friendships that droop

They pulled up my head as I try to lay dead
Never realize I'm painting the corners, the edge
As the fruits of the loops of the friendships that droop

Where do you go, when you hide your love away?
Where do you go, when you hide your love away?

There's no point in asking, there'll be no reply
As you try to convict me I'll move side to side
The fruits of the loops of the friendships that droop

The situation cannot be rectified
We're drowning the small ones with loose lips and lies
As the fruits of the loops of the friendships that droop

Where'd you hide your love away?
Where do you go when you hide your love away?

Where do you go, when you hide your love away?
Where do you go, when you hide your love away?
Where do you go, when you hide your love away?
Where do you go, when you hide your love away?

Where do you go, when you hide your love away?
Where do you go, when you hide your love away?
Where do you go, when you hide your love away?
Where do you go, when you hide your love away?

Just like yesterday
I'll never feel this way again
Just like yesterday
If I never see this face again

If I lose now will you find me
And I'm brain dead, I keep smiling
It's the action, oh I'm hiding

Just like yesterday
I'll never feel this way again
Just like yesterday
If I never see this face again

I love you to pieces
I love you to pieces
I love you to pieces
I love you to pieces

I love you to pieces

I love you to pieces
I love you to pieces

It's my last speech, I'm just dreaming
What I'm saying has no meaning
So check closely 'cause I'm reaching
The smugglers board is beaching

Just like yesterday
I'll never feel this way again
Just like yesterday
If I never see this face again

I love you to pieces
I love you to pieces
I love you to pieces
I love you to pieces

I love you to pieces

27.Pure For

Lyricist:Richard Anthon Greentree, Robin Jones, Stephen Mason, John
Mclean

Beautiful things it seems to be
Go on all around me
I'm so blind, I can't see
What's going on behind me

I'm so glad you found me
I'm so glad you found me

I'm so glad you found me
I'm so glad you found me

Back of my mind starts to feel
Are these things really real?

I'm so glad you found me
I'm so glad you found me
I'm so glad you found me
I'm so glad you found me

If things aren't real and it's all a game
Least I know I got your name
I'll find the book that's full of hearts
Call you up, we'll go dance

Beautiful things it seems to be
Go on all around me

I'm so glad you found me
I'm so glad you found me
I'm so glad you found me
I'm so glad you found me

I'm so glad you found me
I'm so glad you found me


28.Liquid Bird

Lyricist:Susan Janet Ballion, Peter Clarke, Richard Anthon Greentree,
Robin Jones, Steve Mason, John Alexander Mcgeoch, John Mclean,
Steven Severin

Is this the legend of a liquid brain?
That cluster-fuck muscle man who died in the rain
He never guessed that the world would end
Crawling off the beach from the sea to the land

How far can a man go
Crawling on his elbows, falling through his windows?
How far can a man go
Crawling on his elbows, falling through his windows?

Is this the legend of a liquid brain?
You're just a turtle spinning in space
You're just a turtle spinning in space
You're just a turtle spinning in space

And when you return with flat packages of stolen goods
If you don't give them weapons how you gonna get your food
We never guessed that the world would end
Drinking on the beach and we're driving on the land

How far can a man go
Crawling on his elbows, falling through his windows?
How far can a man go
Crawling on his elbows, falling through his windows?

Is it true what they say
About life when you're dead?
'Cause I'm going away
Is it true what they say
About the curtains that close when you're going away?

Is it true what they say
About life when you're dead?
'Cause I'm going away
Is it true what they say
About the curtains that close when you're going away?


29.Space

Lyricist:Richard Anthon Greentree, Robin Jones, Stephen Mason, John
Mclean

Start is the end
More or less
Do you brake for the bend?
More or less

The Milky Way results from the crowding
Of extremely faint stars

Friend is a fool
More or less
Love it but you lost a truth
More or less

The Milky Way results from the crowding
Of extremely faint stars

Can it be, can it be?
It's not impossible, I know
Now it seems to make more sense
And I know, I'm 'round the bend, aah

Can you break through the final stage?
More or less
Do you sing to control your rage?
More or less

The Milky Way results from the crowding
Of extremely faint stars

Can it be, can it be?
It's not impossible, I know
Now it seems to make more sense
And I know I'm round the bend, aah


30.Assessment (Album Version)

Lyricist:Richard Anthon Greentree, Robin Jones, Stephen Mason, John
Mclean

I think I cracked my skull on the way down
I think I lost my head when I lay down
The fear of facts presented in the cold light of day

I say the time has come for decision
Better steer my boat for a reason
Lost on the way I went over horizon
She went out of sight the girl lost me a lifetime

Sometimes I feel I lost her baby
Sometimes I feel I lost her baby

I think I cracked my skull on the way down
I think I lost my head when I lay down
The fear of facts presented in the cold light of day

And when I step back from all this I see that I'm fighting
I can't help myself, there's no reason for lying
Truth and fiction they all become one
Help me from the sea to the beach to the LA

Sometimes I feel I lost her baby
Sometimes I feel I lost her baby
Sometimes I feel I lost her baby
Sometimes I feel I lost her baby


31.I Know

Lyricist:Richard A Greentree, Robin Jones, John Maclean, Steve Mason

I know, I can't find you
I'll go to sit beside you
I need to remind you
That I still, I still love you

I know, I can't find you
I'll show everyone around you
That I need to be with you
I still, I still love you

But I know, I can't find you
I know, I can't find you
I know, I can't find you
I know, I can't find you


32.Squares

Lyricist:Richard Greentree, Robin Jones, David Mackay, John Maclean,
Stephen Mason, Sylveer Van Holmen, Raymond Vincent

I seen the demons
But they didn't make a sound
They tried to reach me
But I lay upon the ground

I seen the people
But they didn't make a sound
They tried to reach me
But I gave the run around

I reached for feelings
But they didn't make a sound
They tried to reach me
But I lay upon the ground

So, miles and miles of squares
Where's the feeling there?
Still nobody cares
For miles and miles of squares

Daydream, I found 'em
Sleeping with the flowers
Daydream, I found 'em
Sleeping with the flowers

I seen the demons
But they didn't make a sound
They tried to reach me
But I lay upon the ground

I seen the people
But they didn't make a sound
They tried to reach me
But I gave the run around

Daydream, I found 'em
Sleeping with the flowers
Daydream, I found 'em
Sleeping with the flowers

So, miles and miles of squares
Where's the feeling there?
Still nobody cares
For miles and miles of squares

Daydream, I found 'em
Sleeping with the flowers
Daydream, I found 'em
Sleeping with the flowers

Daydream, I found 'em
Sleeping with the flowers
Daydream, I found 'em
Sleeping with the flowers


33.The Beta Band Rap

Lyricist:R C Bennett, Richard Greentree, Robin Jones, Joey Levine,
John Maclean, Layng Jr Martin, Steve Mason, Sid Tepper

We're the Beta Band and we're nice and clean
We're always polite and hardly ever mean
Times have changed, we used to be smelly
We lived in a squat 'til a punk nicked our telly

Since we've been signed we eat real good
We always wash our hands and chew our food
Quashis rotis are our favorite dish
Served spicy with chicken or fish

In the world of fashion there's two shining lights
Nancy and Caroline they helped us alright
And Gordon Anderson played a big part
Just when the Beta Band was about to start

It all started in London town
When we gave our demo to Phil Brown
Then we met Miles at Parlophone
And let him hear dogs got a bone

He said go to Falkner and put it on wax
So the next week was spent cutting four tracks
Now a manager was needed to make us complete
Miles knew a Wigner we should meet


His name was Dave with the broken specs
A quiet manner and enough respect
We met at Nachos and cleaned the plate
A meal like that we'd never ate

Then we met Brian and the Microdot crew
Martin, Matt and John Plat too
Adrenalin Village was the place to be
We had no money so they got us in free

The first thing Dave did as boss
Was make us play Water Rats in Kings Cross
We played five songs got credit for four
Went down well so we decided to tour

Next up was Henry and Nich
Making the show go without a hitch
Up and down the country and side to side
With big yin driving it's a bumpy ride

Miles gave us an album deal
We said yes and went for a meal
Drinking champagne at EMI
The irony almost made us cry


We went to Wales and fannyed around
Ended up with the Patty Patty Sound
With open minds we went to achieve
Chris Allison caught it all on Neive

He hummed and hawed and became a pest
Twittering on about the old Neive desk
We had to call in Keith and Miles
When Chris' hair got caught in the dials

We started to get known on Radio One
When Jo Whiley got a fax from my mum
Mary Ann Hobbs invited us to play
At Maida Vale we spent a day

With Chris Allison's hair cut free
It was time for Cornwall and the third EP
With a glock and a sax and a mighty gong
All we needed was a hit pop song

We thought this time we were on a good start
But they made a new rule that banned us from the chart
The songs were good so we didn't give a toss
And we called it Los Amigos Del Beta Bandidos


34.It's Over

Lyricist:Richard Greentree, Robin Jones, John Maclean, Steve Mason

Who could find him the side winding Indian
Why do they miss him, the overpaid simpleton?
She jumped in the river of the tears that I cry
Those are left alone, they're left outside

Spooky little lizard girl, where did you run to?
I only asked your name, never meant to hurt you
She wrote me a letter on the back of the road
I was traveling away and she traveled through the circle
Of the church chimes over the hill, the church chimes over the
hill

Who could find him the side winding Indian
Why do they miss him, the overpaid simpleton?
She jumped in the river of the tears that I cry
Those are left alone, they're left outside

Spooky little lizard girl, where did you run to?
I only asked your name, never meant to hurt you
She wrote me a letter on the back of the road
I was traveling away and she traveled through the circle
Of the church chimes over the hill, the church chimes over the
hill

She's been switched on inside my head
An imaginary friend sitting by my bed
Taking pictures of my soul
All the angles no-one could know

I thought an eagle was seeing through my eyes
I thought everybody turning into spies
Reassures the only aim of my life
Please reassure me that I'm doing alright

No more calls on the telephone
She's been turned off and I'm all alone
She's been switched off inside my head
An imaginary friend sitting by my bed

Taking pictures of my soul
All the angles no one could know
I thought an eagle was seeing through my eyes
I thought everybody turning into spies

Reassures the only aim of my life
Please reassure me that I'm doing alright
No more calls on the telephone
She's been turned off and I'm all alone


35.Al Sharp

Lyricist:Richard Anthony Greentree, Robin Douglas Jones, John Mac
Lean, Stephen Paul Mason

Is it because I'm beside myself with love
That I can say these things to you, honey?
Or if it's 'cause I'm beside myself with guilt
That I can say these things to you, honey?

You and me will never be fine
(You know I never even tried to smile)
You and me will never be fine

Is it because the life beyond the heart
Was taken out for good Al Sharp he got the money?
All because the Power Ranger robots in the skies
Have called a war to you, honey

You and me will never be fine
(To you honey, to you honey)
(You know I never even tried to smile)
You and me will never be fine
(To you honey, to you honey)

Ol' Al Sharp, he laughs in the face of dark
Al sharp, he laughs in the face of dark
He tried the honey, he tried the money
(He's a liar and a cheater and he falls on

Thieving on your mind, thieving on your mind
You and me will never be fine
(You know I never even tried to smile for you)
You and your mind will never be fine
(You know I never even tried to smile for you)
You and your mind will never be fine
(You know I never even tried to smile for you)

You and your mind will never be fine
(You know I never even tried to smile for you)
You and your mind will never be fine
(You know I never even tried to smile for you)
You and your mind will never be fine
(You know I never even tried to smile for you)
You and your mind will never be fine
(You know I never even tried to smile for you)


36.Eclipse

Lyricist:Richard Anthony Greentree, Robin Douglas Jones, John Mac
Lean, Stephen Paul Mason

The people asking questions
To the people with the answers
The people with the answers
Ire the people with the questions

So the people with the questions
Asked the people with the answers
The people with the answers won't tell
The people with the questions the answers

So the people with the questions
They ask the people with the answers
But the people with the answers won't speak to them
Because the people with the answers
Give the people with the questions
Just a little bit too hard a time to speak to

I'm a man who likes to be alone
I'm a man who likes to think alone
I don't have too many answers
But I got a whole heap of questions
I got a whole heap of questions that I won't hide from you


So the people with the books
They went and stood up on the mountain
To get away from the people with no books
The people with the books

They started reading on the mountain but
They couldn't see a thing because the sky went dark
I don't know where the cloud cover came from
I'm just sitting here rocking on the station

I don't want to be the type of guy
Who lives alone, reading books and never eats a pizza pie
I don't want to be the type of person
Sitting alone with a book on my own

With a book on my own
The people with the questions got together
With the people with the books
And left the people with answers out

So the people with the answers
Started to make their way over the hill
To meet with people with the questions
And the people with the books

And we all live together on a little round ball
We all sing together when the cuckoo calls
I'm not the type best living alone
Could we live together? Well, I don't know

I'm not sitting here giving you a lesson
So I'll just keep my mouth shut for the next few minutes
Can't keep quiet for long, I'm a human being
Can't help help singing this song, I'm a human being
You won't listen to me, I'm not an authority

So the people with the answers
Met the people with the questions
And the people with the books sat down
They finally decided to sit around

To talk about their problems
To see if they come up
With some answers to meet the questions
And some questions to meet the answers

Well, the leaves on the trees are green
Okay, we're agreed on that
And the roads are not very clean
Okay, we're agreed on that
And the food we eat is not very healthy
Okay, we're agreed on that

And the music we make is not particularly good
Okay, we're agreed on that
And the planets sort of revolve around the sun
Okay, we're agreed on that
And the moon is a big ball with nothing on it

And I don't think anyone's ever been there
Okay, so we're kind of agreed to that
So what are we arguing about? Well, I don't know
Okay, so let's get together and smoke that pizza pie

Some people with a pizza pie made me very high
The people with the questions smile
And the people with the answers lie
They lie


37.Life

Lyricist:Richard Anthony Greentree, Robin Douglas Jones, John Mac
Lean, Stephen Paul Mason

I went to look for shadows, the shadows they found me
I went to swim the ocean, drowned up in the sea
I want to love my woman but she chose him over me
I want to be somebody else, I feel I won't be free

Is this me for life, me for life, me for life, me for life?
Is this me for life, me for life, me for life, me for life?

I fought to keep from crying as I lay upon the floor
And everyone I knew right then pressed me to the floor
I tried to keep on breathing but the people would not give
And all the evil in the world, the people would not give

Is this me for life, me for life, me for life, me for life?
Is this me for life, me for life, me for life, me for life?

And if you left it up to me they'd all go in the sea
With the guns and the disease and the industry of weasels
Saying, 'sell to them the killing gem, attack to get it back'

Sell to them the killing gem, attack to get it back
Sell to them the killing gem, attack to get it back
Sell to them the killing gem, attack to get it back
...

Inner meet me, oh, you can't decide
Inner meet me, oh, you can't decide
Inner meet me, oh, you can't decide

I couldn't help it all my thoughts were rejected by a boy who

Last night I dreamt somebody fell asleep between my knees
I couldn't help it all my thoughts were rejected by a boy who

Last night I dreamt somebody fell asleep between my knees
I couldn't help it all my thoughts were rejected by a boy who

She said to me
Keep your head up
Never show up
Keep it all in never dream alone

Away on a star
Who is too far
Say what you feel
He couldn't heal

Never dream alone
Never dream alone

If you can feel that the light is on the ceiling
Then you can't see past your nose
I never listen but the people who are Christian all want to move
away?

She said to me
Keep your head up
Never show up
Keep it all in never dream alone

Away on a star
Who is too far
Say what you feel
He couldn't heal

Never dream alone

Never dream alone

Keep it all in never dream alone

Away on a star
Who is too far

Never dream alone
Never dream alone

Inner meet me, oh, you can't decide
Inner meet me, oh, you can't decide
Inner meet me, oh, you can't decide

39.Quiet

Lyricist:Richard Anthony Greentree, Robin Douglas Jones, John Mac
Lean, Stephen Paul Mason

There's a quiet little man and he sits at his window
Doesn't make a sound but he watches where the wind blows
Wants to go outside, fears wouldn't let him
First a little smile and the fears come rolling

You can go outside where the sun, the people blind you
You can go outside where the love of the people finds you
You can go outside where the sun, the people blind you
You can go outside where the love of the people finds you
It will find you, it will find you, it will find you

When he walks through the maze in the circles of his back place
While the Jew on his roof is still tying up his shoelace
He will never curse again all the days on his home spent
Nailing all the doors jumping through the window

You can go outside where the sun, the people blind you
You can go outside where the love of the people finds you
You can go outside where the sun, the people blind you
You can go outside where the love of the people finds you
It will find you, it will find you, it will find you


40.The House Song

Put it in your pocket for a rainy day
Sing a song and you know your wrong now
Sing a song and you know your wrong now

I don't know why, I can't think of a line, line
I don't know why, I can't think of a line, line

Yesterday I found a day
I know, today I lost a day
I know, today I lost a day

Above three lines are sung over the top of each other
