Everybody chokes
When they see someone cut down in their prime It may not show when you look at me But I know I'm in mine I'm potent, baby, I'm potent Dangerous to the naked eye Rest your head on this bed of mother's pride And find out why Don't you wanna take me home? Don't you wanna take me home? Give me a sense of purpose A real sense of purpose now Give me a sense of purpose A real sense of purpose now Bully boys don't bother me I purse my lips and they run away Guys like you who are gentle and true Don't come around here everyday I'm potent, baby, I'm potent Just one swing of me would get most guys smashed But a drop of yours makes me stagger and swerve I guess I'm outclassed Everybody chokes When they see someone cut down in their prime Take this plea to your heart - lift me in mine Don't you wanna take me home? Don't you wanna take me home? Give me a sense of purpose A real sense of purpose now Give me a sense of purpose A real sense of purpose now Give me a sense of purpose A real sense of purpose now Give me a sense of purpose A real sense of purpose now |

She's getting older
Yeah, she's getting wise But a change has changed the girl Gone's the sparkle from her eyes She wants to be a good mother So she'll do the best she can But what about the other What about the man Well it's cold to leave a woman With family on her own It's chill factor To the bone Resignation In her sighs Is a sorry indication Of how time Can brutalise Take away the hope And the will will follow Take away the faith And goodbye tomorrow Well it's cold to leave a woman With family on her own It's chill factor To the bone She had her dreams too But how can she pursue Her ambitions, be they great or small You took her wings and flew But remember when you're through Your rise was due To somebody else's fall When the hard part's over And the kids are almost grown You'll be their big hero Whenever you make it home Shower them with presents Things she could never buy Delight them with your stories About the great big, great big world outside But dig - It's cold to leave a woman With family on her own It's chill factor Chill factor To the bone |

Your private life drama baby leave me out [3x]
J'ai les glands with your theatrics Your acting's a drag It's ok on tv 'cause you can turn it off But don't try me Yes your marriage is a tragedy But it's not my concern I'm very superficial I hate anything official [Chorus:] Your private life drama baby leave me out [3x] [Backup Chorus:] You've been lying to someone and now me Stop [3x] Your sentimental gestures only bore me to death You've made a desperate appeal now save your breath Attachment to obligation through guilt and regret Shit that's so wet And your sex life complications are not my fascinations [Chorus] You asked me for advice I said use the door But you're still clinging to somebody you deplore And now you wanna use me for emotional blackmail I just feel pity when you lie, contempt when you cry [Chorus] |

I found a picture of you, o-o-oh, o-o-oh
You had hijacked my world at night To a place in the past we've been passed out of, o-o-oh, o-o-oh Now we're back in the fight We're back on the train, yeah O-oh, back on the chain gang Circumstance beyond our control, o-o-oh, o-o-oh The phone, TV and the news of the world Got in the house like a pigeon from Hell, o-o-oh, o-o-oh Threw sand in our eyes and descended like flies And put us back on the train, yeah O-oh, back on the chain gang The powers that be That force us to live like we do Bring me to my knees When I see what they've done to you Well, I'll die as I stand here today Knowing that deep in my heart They'll fall to ruin one day For making us part I found a picture of you, o-o-oh, o-o-oh Those were the happiest days of my life Like a break in the battle was your part, o-o-oh, o-o-oh In the wretched life of a lonely heart Now I'm back on the train, yeah O-oh, back on the chain gang |

Kid what changed your mood
You've gone all sad so I feel sad too I think I know some things we never outgrow You think it's wrong I can tell you do How can I explain When you don't want me to Kid my only kid You look so small you've gone so quiet I know you know what I'm about I won't deny it But you forgive though you don't understand You've turned your head You've dropped by hand All my sorrow, all my blues All my sorrow Shut the light, go away Full of grace, you cover your face Kid gracious kid Your eyes are blue but you won't cry I know angry tears are too dear You won't let them go |

I been crying like a woman
Because I'm mad, mad, mad like a man If you'd been in the s.s. in '43 You'd've been kicked out for cruelty I hurt you 'cause you hurt me So I hurt you 'cause you hurt me I been wondering about your dependency Your idea of defiance is a modern day mystery Arms and chest are cold When your back is on fire And the only time you come clean Is when you're talking to your buyer I hurt you 'cause you hurt me So I hurt you 'cause you hurt me Forget our philosophies That we admired when we were young And our popular points of view They can't mean much or nothing Or something or anything 'cause we can't say I love you I hurt you 'cause you hurt me So I hurt you 'cause you hurt me Happy birthday, darling and thank you for the schooling Your correction mistress warned me and she wasn't fooling Never trust a user with your television overnight When the show he wants to video is dallas on a tuesday night Don't try to paint your masterpiece under artificial light |

Let me inside you
Into your room I've heard it's lined With the things you don't show Lay me beside you Down on the floor I've been your lover From the womb to the tomb I dress as your daughter When the moon becomes round You be my mother When everything's gone And she will always carry on Something is lost But something is found They will keep on speaking her name Somethings change Some stay the same Keep beckoning to me From behind that closed door The maid and the mother And the crone that's grown old I hear your voice Coming out of that hole I listen to you And I want some more I listen to you And I want some more And she will always carry on Something is lost But something is found They will keep on speaking her name Some things change Some stay the same |

I tried to talk to my baby
I said no no no no baby Please don't cry No no no baby please 'cause all of the leaves come down Every time babies cry All of the leaves come down I put my arms around my baby I said hush hush hush hush Baby sleep tight now Hush hush hush baby sleep 'cause all of the birds start to sing Every time babies dream All of the birds start to sing Nobody wants to see Lovers of today happy So assumed they're going to part Nobody wants to be with someone So afraid they'll be left with A broken heart I kissed the eyes of my baby I said dream dream dream dream Baby all night long Dream dream dream all the night 'cause all of the stars in the skies Twinkle on baby's eyes All of the stars in the skies I tried to talk to you baby No no No I'll never feel Like a man in a man's world |

When I look up from my pillow
I dream you are there with me Though you are far away I know you'll always be near to me I go to sleep, sleep And imagine that you're there with me I go to sleep, sleep And imagine that you're there with me I look around me And feel you are ever so close to me Each tear that flows from my eye Brings back memories of you to me I go to sleep, sleep And imagine that you're there with me I go to sleep, sleep And imagine that you're there with me I was wrong, I will cry I will love you till the day I die You were all, you alone and no one else You were meant for me When morning comes again I have the loneliness you left me Each day drags by Until finally my time descends on me I go to sleep, sleep And imagine that you're there with me I go to sleep, sleep And imagine that you're there with me |

Cats like me and you
Have got laws That they adhere to Laws outside the laws As laid down By those we don't subscribe to The world is getting stranger But we'll never lose heart We can't just wait for the Old guard to die Before we can Make a new start Bring on the revolution (keep the pressure on) I wanna die for something Bring on the revolution I wanna die for something Bring on the revolution I wanna die for something Bring on the revolution I don't wanna die for nothing For every freedom fighter I wanna hold on tighter To the hope and will you gave You were the brave You were the brave And one day When i hear your children sing Freedom will ring Freedom! When we watch the children play Remember How the privileged classes grew And from this day We set out To undo what won't undo Looking for the grand In the minute Every breath justifies Every step that we take To remove what the powers that be Can't prove And the children will Understand why Bring on the revolution (keep the pressure on) I wanna die for something Bring on the revolution I wanna die for something Bring on the revolution I don't wanna die for nothing Bring on the revolution I wanna die for something |
