2.Guilt
You know what it's like
This happens to everyone one or twice
You were driving off in a taxi
Leaning out the window and shouting your number
But I got me, I got away by the skin of my teeth that time
And you were telling me; you were dancing close to me
And you were telling me you had an idea
But don't say I shouldn't worry âtil the morning âcause
Iâm worrying now
I got a boy and we've been together you see
Before I knew you
Before you knew me
Now I've made my choice
And I'm sticking to it
Guilt has nothing, nothing to do with it
Guilt has nothing, nothing to do with it
Guilt has nothing to do with it
We were driving off in a taxi
You were looking out the window
And I was looking down at the floor
There's nothing to say anymore
We both know why we're here
And now you tell me
You've got me in your room
And now you're telling me you want this to work
But don't say I shouldn't worry âtil the morning âcause
Iâm worrying now
I got a boy and we've been together you see
Before I knew you
Before you knew me
Now I've made my choice
And I'm sticking to it
And Guilt has nothing, nothing to do with it
Guilt has nothing, nothing to do with it
Guilt has nothing to do with it
So tell me when you're out next
So I donât go out too
Then make a fool of myself again
So tell me when youâre out next
So I donât go out too
Then make a fool of myself again
I've made my choice
And I'm sticking to it
And this has nothing to do with it
I've made my bed Iâm gunna lie in it
And guilt has nothing
I got a boy and we've been together you see
Before I knew you
Before you knew me
Now I've made my choice
And I'm sticking to it
And guilt has nothing, nothing to do with it
Guilt has nothing, nothing to do with it
Guilt has nothing, nothing to do with it
Guilt has nothing, nothing to do with it
Guilt has nothing to do with it
You know what it's like
This happens to everyone one or twice
3.The Couples
Falling in love is sometimes hard
Writing a love song is even harder
Better to leave that to someone else
Someone madder
But this is a song about feeling left out
And this is a song about not being ready
To do what youâve been told to do
This is the last drink Iâm ever gonna have
This is the way that its making me feel
I used to come here to have a good time
But I could feel like this at home
And the couples walk by and they give me the eye
And I can see that the girls just a little bit jealous
Well anytime you want to swap just stop me
Yes people have the nerve to tell me that theyâre lonely
People have the nerve to tell me that theyâre lonely
People have the nerve to tell me that theyâre lonely
Youâre not lonely
I am baby
So the couples walk by and they give me the eye
And it seems like the boys got a thing for me
Well my advice is not to get involved
And closing timeâs now non-existant
So I could stay till judgement day
I could stay till I get bored of the couples walking by
Yes people have the nerve to tell me that theyâre lonely
People have the nerve to tell me that theyâre lonely
People have the nerve to tell me that theyâre lonely
Youâre not lonely
I am baby
Oooh ooohhh
Youâre not lonely
I am baby
A million people in the cosmos tonight
Must be rare in this age of life
But none of them can hold a candle to me
And the couples walk by and they give me the eye
But thatâs not what I what I walk
Around the block and never come back one day
I walk around the block and never come back one day
Yes people have the nerve to tell me that theyâre lonely
People have the nerve to tell me that theyâre lonely
People have the nerve to tell me that theyâre lonely
Youâre not lonely
I am baby
Oooh ooohhh
Youâre not lonely
I am baby
4.I Liked The Boys
5.Here Comes The Serious Bit
Your friend's a genius
She even made up
The spare room bed for us.
But I can't stay here indefinitely
I've definitely got somewhere else
I'd rather be.
And that's the thing I haven't told you yet...
Here it comes, here it comes
here comes the serious bit
here comes the serious bit
Your friends say we have fun
And film stars they have fun
I'd like to just for once
But the Marquis de Sade had it hard
And even Cleopatra found it unnatural sometimes
And that's the thing I haven't told you yet...
Here it comes, here it comes
here comes the serious bit
here comes the serious bit
I could be a shoulder to cry on
Or I could be a body to lie on
But don't ask me for more than that
6.Round The Hairpin
Round the hairpin
We go speeding
In a rented car
Round the hairpin
We go speeding
A few days abroad
Is all he could afford
A few days abroad
Is all I could afford
Round the hairpin
We go speeding
Round the hairpin
We go speeding
In a rented car
Round the hairpin
We go speeding
A few days abroad
Is all he could afford
A few days abroad
Is all I could afford
Round the hairpin
We go speeding
Some of my family
Don't know I'm out here
Imagine the sorrow, imagine the shame
Some of my family
Don't know I'm out here
Round the hairpin
We go speeding
In a rented car
Round the hairpin
We go speeding
Don't let me die
Round the hairpin
We go speeding
In a rented car
Round the hairpin
We go speeding
Don't let me die
7.Too Clever By Half
I know your only doing what comes naturally (x2)
Oh you, you and her a pretty girl, you both plan to leave your
lovers, and run off with each other, and leave us to look like
fools
Oh you, you said I know Iâve been unkind, and you swore
blinded it was the last time youâd ever leave a girl behind,
but how did she know you was telling the truth？
Oh you thought you were clever, you thought you were smart, but
you were just too clever by half, but you were just too clever
by half
While you were making plans I was going with her man, then we
left you to be clever, to be clever together
Oh you, you thought that you were pretty smart, but when you and
her were out I would go round to his house, and I donât have
to tell you what we did next
No I donât have to tell you what we did next (x3)
But youâre not so clever now
Oh you thought you were clever, you thought you were smart, but
you were just too clever by half, but you were just too clever
by half
While you were making plans I was going with her man, then we
left you to be clever, to be clever together
I know your only doing what comes naturally (x4)
8.Erin O'Connor
'What was the question again'
'What made you think that there was anything suspicious about
it？'
Don't look, don't bring it up, I know what I'm up against,
This is all in self defence, 'cos I need to protect myself,
I need to protect myself like you need to convince yourself,
And if that's what it takes then that's what it takes.
Barry M, my oldest friend, what can you do for me now？
And Clinique, if you could speak, you'd tell me what to do...
Close your eyes and think of Erin O'Connor or pretend I'm Lily
Cole,
And I'll imagine you're someone else as well,
And we'll be ok, alright, ok for one night,
We'll be ok, alright, ok for one night,
I need to protect myself like you need to convince yourself,
And if that's what it takes then that's what it takes.
Close your eyes and think of Erin O'Connor or pretend I'm Lily
Cole,
And I'll imagine you're someone else as well,
Barry M, my oldest friend, what can you do for me now？
And Clinique, if you could speak, you'd tell me what to do.

9.Nostalgia
It was the shock of the new
That kept the latest two
At the top of the charts all summer
It must have been something like 11 weeks
That we spent up there
But still...
That was then and this is now
That was then and this is now
That was just nostalgia
I used to think I'd never cry
Or worry if I said goodbye
'Cos human beings have all
Outgrown those basic feelings anyway...
That was then and this is now
That was then and this is now
That was just nostalgia
So don't you worry
About the pretty creatures in the street
The pretty creatures that I'd like
To eat up for breakfast
The pretty creatures in the streets
The pretty creatures that I'd like
To eat up for breakfast
That's all in the past
I may never have a daughter
Cos I've far too much to tell her
And far too much to answer to
I want to move into the future
Move in to the future
Move into the future with you
And the politics of love
And who I used to dream of
That was just nostalgia
I want to move into the future
Move in to the future
Move into the future with you
And the politics of love
And who I used to dream of
That was just nostalgia
10.I'm Going To Hell
I don't watch soap operas, maybe I should
I need to know if being the bad guy is any good
Would you forgive me now？
So many things I used to think about,
I never dare act out
I didn't want to risk the chance of someone finding out
Now I'm going to hell, so I may as well, make it worth my while
Now I'm going to hell, so I may as well, make it worth my while
The first time that it happened, well you knew that it was wrong
The only thing I'll never regret is why it took so long
Now I'm going to hell, so I may as well, make it worth my while
Now I'm going to hell, so I may as well, make it worth my while
Would you forgive me now？
I don't watch soap operas, maybe I should
I don't watch what I say, I'm through with being good
So many things I used to think about, I never dare act out
Now it's not worth asking you if you'd forgive me now
I don't believe in heaven, I don't believe in hell
But maybe that's the problem, or maybe it's just as well
(Oh)
I'm going to hell, so I may as well make it worth my while
I'm going to hell, so I may as well enjoy myself and go down
with a smile
Would you forgive me now？
Would you forgive me now？
Would you forgive me now？
