She asks for more and I give less
Why can't she see it's obvious I mean no but she takes yes I make it clear but she don't guess She comes round it gets me down But she don't catch a hint I drop She turns up it turns me off And she don't know when to stop What am I supposed to do? How to gently break the news? How to get the message through? Perhaps I should just fade away She asked me out and I gave in Then she gave out and I felt mean I really want no more of us So I stay home, she comes across She comes round I turn her down But she bounces back again She comes on I turn her off But she don't get what's really plain What am I supposed to do? Got to get the message through Got to make her see the truth I wish she would just fade away Do you want to know do I love you? The answer's no Is that straight enough for you? She asked for it I told her flat That I don't want no more of that I've really had you up to here And I don't even like you near If you come round I won't be in I can't stand to see your face If we meet up then count me out Why don't you just fade away? Fade away When love's not love When love's not love When love's not love Fade Away |

You got to pass the bowl and make the food go round
'Cos that's the only way to trample crime to the ground Equal rights and justice for one and all 'Cos only through liberty freedom shall form Don't fight against no color, class Nor creed for on discrimination Does violence breed We are all in a one and one in all So throw away the guns and the war's all gone Throw away the hunger and the war's all gone Throw away the fighting and the war's all gone Throw away the guns and the war's all gone Throw away the hunger and the war's all gone Throw away the fighting and the war's all gone Throw away the grudges and the war's all gone |

It makes you so angry, You rage and rage again
But you can't spit it outside, it's bottled in your brain You feel it in the darkness, the rage inside you grow And you know you're a stranger, in the room below (Chorus:) There are no words to say just what it is you mean But if you feel it's real it's real it's real It makes you so angry, why can't they see red? Can no-one else imagine, what can't be said? You try to put it over, but that gets you nowhere You wouldn't have to bother, if you didn't care (Chorus) And as for all the rest, they think you're in a mess And say that the know best But you know better, you keep your temper It proves that you're still alive It makes you so angry, a rage that's all your own It makes you fell so lonely, but you're not alone For I still feel it that way, and he and she do too And it's enough for us to know, that it's enough to know. (Chorus) What you feel is real You're not the only one. |

Look at every man you meet
It can be him on every street The woman's waiting for the next attack Bold black headlines made in dark Show how the man can make his mark The woman learned it from her dad How he can be like Jack the lad Hits and misses I do you will Love and kisses Yours in hell Look at him in every face The woman sees and takes her place He rips at her heart till death them part Everywhere she sees his power Sees how Michael Caine takes a shower Sees herself in houseproud ads Gatefold Miss World Page Three Miss X Hits and misses I do you will Love and kisses Yours in hell I'm not talking about a psycho-killer Sonny, it's not one of those It could be you It could be me It's someone we all know See him walk down any street The woman fears and hears his feet If his team lost then she gets beat Neighbours shrug, go back to chatter Just a man who's on the batter Then he gets his legal way On just another Saturday Hits and misses I do you will Love and kisses Yours in hell |

I sit and I don't make a sound
While I watch the speakers pound And mum shouts up to turn it down 'cause I'm waking up half the town But I don't hear a word that's said While the needles hit the red I'm just - Kicking up a racket Kicking up a racket I don't smoke and I don't drink But like to see the max lights blink They say that they can't sleep a wink But I don't want to hear me think Life's no fun and life is dull Unless you turn the knobs up full I like - Kicking up a racket Kicking up a racket I know a shop that sells All you need for decibels As long as what they got ain't quiet Spend every penny in trying to buy it I like electric toys I like making noise I love - Kicking up a racket Kicking up a racket I don't care what mom don't allow Gonna play it my way anyhow Bashy tunes speak volumes Gimme a row, gimme a row, gimme a row Louder louder louder louder - Kicking up a racket Kicking up a racket So here I stand and in my hand This guitar is really the man As long as I can go blam blam Don't care if you can't hear the band Don't care what who else does Turn it up and feel the buzz Hear me - Kicking up a racket Kicking up a racket Attack attack attack it It's a racket racket racket Kicking up a racket |

She makes a home and she stays mum
About the things she might have done She keeps her eyes firm on the ground To set her own life Makes up her face and not her mind To be a wife There was a time away back then She might have thought to think again But then through dolls and schoolyard games Like ma before her She learned girls play the family way Don't look for more She's just playing Playing safe Playing houses Safe as houses Here on this street when they were kids He built his dreams with coloured bricks But comes the time for him to prove That he's a man now He gets a wife and he makes his move To three doors down He's playing Playing safe Playing houses Safe as houses For there was no-one there to say It didn't have to be that way You never get the best of you When you do what they expect you to You've heard it all How you're no use You're born to fail So follow suit But if you feel and got a dream Don't dare ignore it 'cause that is what you've got to be You must got for it Don't play it Play it safe A plague on houses Safe as houses |

When I'm away I think of you
And how you're where I want to be And there's on thing I gotta do Get back to you to be free to be me 'cause anytime I don't like it I keep a doorway in my mind When I want to be with you I just walk through Gate 49 It gets me down and makes me sick To be somewhere I hate to be So I'll escape I'll take a trip I'll fly so high to be free to be me 'cause anytime I don't like it I find that doorway in my mind When I want to be with you I just walk through Gate 49 Just for a time though miles away I can put up with what must be But pretty soon I'll have to take My one way out to be free to be me I may be tired of life itself But here bores me I like it somewhere else When I'm away I think of you And how you're where I want to be And there's one thing I gotta do Get back to you to be free to be me Where I'm mine all the time just behind Gate 49 |

They tell you not to worry
They say they're terribly sorry But that's the way it has to be For the likes of me Just be good and know your station Always look on the bright side Keep your faith and keep your patience Your reward is after you've died So don't be told Don't be consoled Things are so bad You can never make do And there's always someone better off than you They tell you that's your future It's all down to human nature Simply settle for what you got That's destiny and that's your lot All of us cannot come first Yes, what you have is second-best But it might be a good deal worse Third world peasants get even less So don't be told Don't be consoled Things are so bad You can never make do And there's always someone better off than you Do you care that it's not fair? Is this the way we have to live? I know I care And I want an equal share Even if it means I have to give The people who are on top Say that you should keep your chin up And they are keen to show you The unhappy ones below you But I want no more of that stuff That's looking at it upside down And the world has got money enough For us to make it go around Don't be told Don't be consoled Don't be ruled Don't be fooled Because things are so bad you can never make do And there's always someone better off than you |

Piccadilly Circus in the bed of night
Just passing time beneath the lights Up in town and all alone Got no business so minds his own The hotel room is lonely and cold He might as well go for a stroll Idly looking in a hi-fi shop Footsteps, a chuckle and one hard slap And they didn't even see his face See him flinch or hear him groan They didn't even see his eyes One mean blow and on they ran He put his fingers to his side And felt his flesh was open wide He felt the rent the blow had made For the hand that fell had held a blade And they didn't even see his face See him stumble, hear his cry They didn't even see his eyes Just lashed out in passing by What can it mean? Who can makes some sense of that? Did it mean a thing to them? What can make a mind like that? Though forty stitches helped him over Who can live life over his shoulder? He tried to put it in his past And flew safe home back to Belfast And they didn't see his face See him stagger watch him fall They didn't even see his eyes They never knew him at all Never knew him, tried to kill him Never knew him, tried to kill him |

Just because you're nobody
It doesn't mean that you're no good Just because there's a reason It doesn't mean it's understood (Chorus:) It doesn't make it all right It doesn't make it all right It's the worse excuse in the world And it doesn't make it all right Just because you're a black boy Just because you're a white It doesn't mean you've got to hate him Doesn't mean you've got to fight (Chorus) Some people think they're really clever To smash your head against a wall Then they say 'You got it my way' They really think they know it all Just because you're a black boy Just because you're a white It doesn't mean you've got to hate him Doesn't mean you've got to fight (Chorus) It doesn't make it all It doesn't make it all It doesn't make it all right |

On cheap returns to summer places
Awayday herd, all out in the heat Kicking black looks in sunshine faces A race to vote with their feet Back to front Flock off to find someone to play with He's not like us he must be done Buckets and spades to make your day with It hurts so good it must be fun [Chorus] And it's "Made in London town Fists are up to knuckle down Because we are the boys who've got the noise and clout" And it's argue upside down Black and white and wrong way round Infight, outright, uptight, downright, inside out Back to front Fight on the beaches and back home streets Welcoming in with outclenched hands Standing on others with your own feet You've got to prove that you're a man [Chorus] I glance over my shoulder As they head for the past But I've still got my eyes up ahead I'm not going back to front Back to front Back to front Back to front, upside down, inside out, wrong way round Back to front, upside down, inside out, wrong way round Back to front |
