24x7 Boy [X.Boyer/Tahiti 80]

Come on now are you ready
Come on now your life has been too easy
I stole the keys from your dad

Don't be angry at me
He won't even get mad
We'll be back in time don't you worry

Chorus:
I know the best has yet
to come I feel it in my bones
This feeling won't last
for long, won't last for long

Come on now are you ready
Come on now don't you be so lazy
I want to be somebody else
Just for the night
And we'll stay together
Till they turn out the city lights

Chorus:

My love she`s unpredictable
She goes where the wind blows
Time flies and I wonder why,
Why she hasn`t come back to me?
My love she`s unpredictable
She`ll build me up just to knock me down
I`m like a fly nailed on the wall
What she got in store for me?

Chorus:
I know you think I`m out of my head
That I should just pack up and runaway-ay
The traffic light`s stuck on red
But I wouldn`t have it any other way

My love she`s unpredictable
She doesn`t care where the river is flowing
If you, do her good,
she might teach you `bout the birds and the bees
My love she`s unpredictable
She`ll be gone with the sunrise
Time flies and I`m thinking aloud:
I`ll better run while i`m still free

Chorus:

(Lover lover lover) turn me on

Chorus:

Love is all around
Love is all around you
Love is all around
You don`t pay attention, do you?
Love is all around
Love is all around you
Love is all around
There`s not much you can do

Chorus:
No, you don`t understand
Hide your head in the sand
What a stupid thing to do
You don`t see what others think of you
Sinking in the quicksand
Your happiness comes in cans
You know it isn`t true
Aren`t you ready for something new?

Take a look around
I`m the one behind you
Lost in the background
Like a faded tattoo
Can`t you hear the sound
Of a heart going underground
Can you hear the sound
Of your heart going underground

Chorus:
No, you don`t understand
Hide your head in the sand
What a stupid thing to do
You don`t see what others think of you
Sinking in the quicksand
Your happiness comes in cans
You know it isn`t true
Aren`t you ready for something new?

Chorus:
No it`s not over
You`ll find something better
No it`s not over
You`ll find something better

Chorus:
No, you don`t understand
Hide your head in the sand
What a stupid thing to do
You don`t see what others think of you
Sinking in the quicksand
Your happiness comes in cans
You know it isn`t true
Aren`t you ready for something new?

[4] Brazil [X.Boyer/Tahiti 80]

I've thought about this for a long time
I've been getting no sleep at night
One day I'm sure I'll forget all about it
Might even make me smile

I guess you crashed my heart at the worst time
You left a bitter taste in my mouth
I don't wanna spend the rest of my days
Drinking cheap red wine

Chorus:
Tell me what to do
Cos I don't know what to do
You said do what's good for you
That's all you gotta do
Oh oh oh oh oh
Oh yeah, oh yeah!

Tell me what to do
Cos I haven't got a clue
You said do what's good for you
That's what I would do
If I were you
Oh yeah, oh yeah!

Oh, I thought I'd given it all away
Ain't that what lovers are supposed to say
One day you came round with a knife
Cut out a chunk of my life

Chorus:

Sometimes I wish I had a yellow jersey on
While wearing, I'm pretty sure that nothing would go wrong
I would tackle all my troubles and be the one who scores the goal
but now I'm sitting on the bench waiting for my time to come

Chorus:

[5] Fire Escape [X.Boyer/Tahiti 80]

I'm through with your wicked games
Did my memory screw me up again?
What happend to the old you?

You took the fire escape
Dressed up in a superhero cape
How come you didn't take me with you?

Please stay by my side
I know you need some time
And people will wonder
Why we're together
And people will wonder
Why we're sticking together

The movie's still the same
Except for one missing frame,
I believe it went away with you

It's hard to keep the pace
I painted your colours all over my face
Do you think I am crazy too?

I wanna stay by your side
You will love me sometimes
And people will wonder
Why we're together
And people will wonder
Why we're sticking together

And people will wonder
Why we're still together
And people will wonder
WHy we stay together

[6] One parachute [X.Boyer/Tahiti 80]

I'd like to jump from an aeroplane with you
We'll only use one parachute, would you
Like a piece of sunshine? like a peice of sunshine?
I would like some too

I'd like to go to the Meiji shrine, it's true
I'll add a leaf to the "Giant Wish Tree" for you
If I had a second chance, I'd do it all different
But still with you

What are we waiting for?
We've got it all but I still want more
So c'mon jump right in ooh ooh
Cause baby this is where we begin

Would you like to come out for a walk with me?
I'd like to show you everything, you see
We could get lost on the way
Go on a holiday and never come back

What are we wating for?
Just one more step and we're out the door
Time's closing in ooh ooh
Can't you see our plane is waiting
C'mon jump right in ooh ooh
Cause baby this is where we begin

Maybe I didn't strike a chord
I might as well have broken a string
I thought you'd want to sing along
Did you request another song?

What are we waiting for?
We've got it all but I still want more.
Time's closing in
Can't you see our plane is waiting
C'mon jump right in
Cause baby this is where we begin

I'd like to go somewhere else with you
I'd like to jump from an aeroplane with you

I thought we felt as one
It was great to be there with you
It's so hard to tune in
when I don't know what you're thinking x2

You switched to channel two
I am lost and I don't know what to do
It's so hard to tune in
When I don't know what you're thinking
It's so hard to tune in...

Chorus:
And my love is too much to take
And my love is something I can't fake
And my heart is about to break

I turn the radio on
Just to hear the same voice coming thru my earphones
It's so hard to tune in
when I don't know what you're thinking x2

Don't make me feel so bad,
I am not a stalker knockin' at your door
It's so hard to tune in
When I don't know what you're thinking
It's so hard to tune in...

Chorus:

Bridge

Chorus:

Hey keep in mind
There are treasures to be found
And there's an answer to everything
Dream on little one
We're on the run, uh uh uh
Catching the train as it's leaving
Watching the trees turn into a sea of green
I can see a new day dawning
This is a new beginning


I've been thinking 'bout the good times
And how I thought they'd never end
We've been going through a hard time
I can't wait to start again
I keep thinking about the good times
Feeling like I lost a friend
and we've been having such a hard time
I can't wait to start again
I'll keep it with mine
The vultures all aroune
Make you fight over the smallest thing
Dream on little one
And follow the sun, uh uh uh
Running from the rain as it's falling
Watching a cloud exploding in the open sky
We'll stay here in hiding and we'll leave in the morning
(hold on to it)


Ba-Ba Babababa Ba
Didn't know I was falling
Ba-Ba Babababa Ba
Now, I'm climbing up the hill
Ba-Ba Babababa Ba
It's a brand new beginning
Bridge
I've been thinking 'bout the good times
(hold on to it, hold on to it)
I've been thinking 'bout the good times
(hold on to it, hold on to it)
This is a new beginning
(hold on to it, hold on to it)
I can see a new day dawning
(hold on to it, hold on to it)
This is a new beginning

[9] White Noise [X.Boyer/Tahiti 80]

Making white noise
You t-shirt collector
Faking your poise
Like so many others
Do it for fun, just throw another ball
Son of a gun, your head's against the wall

Dropping your pose
Another blurred picture
You're smart as a tortoise
Stuck in an elevator
Nowhere to run, just wait for someone to call
Son of a gun, your head's against the wall

Chorus:
(Ooh ooh), here you go again
(Ooh ooh), shopping for some friends
So you felt a little lonely
Saw the light and joined a band.
So you'd never have to worry
Abouut the big bang at the end.

Hang on to your toys
Beware of the plastic boys,
They're coming at u faster
Faster than an alligator
Look at the sun, how long will it take to fall
Son of a gun, your head's against the wall

Chorus:

you think about the past
you never thought you'd fade so fast

Chorus:

[10] Come Around [X.Boyer-T.Keegan/Tahiti 80]

What have I gone and done?
I guess it didn't take me too long
I must have been blinded by the sunshine
Now I've got shivers up my spine
And the cocktails took their toll
I almost droned in the punchbowl
I made a fool of myself
I wish I was somebody else

Chorus:
Won't you come around
I wanna hold you
Won't you come around
I'm dying to see you
Wish I could find a way to say I'm sorry now
Instead of felling sorry for myself
Won't you come around

It's hard to stand on this sandy ground
It's like I'm walking on a merry-go-round
I know why you're mad at me
And I know it's not temporary
Tonite I will climb over your bungalow wall
I don't care what happens if I fall
Just to make things right with you
You know that's all I want to do

Won't you come around
I wanna hold you
Won't you come around
I'm dying to see you

I'm not sure I can stand it if you change your mind
I don't think I can wait if you need some more time
Oh won't you come around

(What goes around, comes around)

-Hi Zav, What's going on?
-Hey Tim
You know everything was perfect now I've said something
stupid, she won't even talk to me. What should I do?
-Man, you gotta get over there and tell her you love her
-You think so?
-Sure
-Alright man, sorry I gotta go, right now

Chorus:

[11] Whistle [X.Boyer/Taihiti 80]

I never travelled too far
I never caught a shooting star
One day, I almost saw the lights of Hong Kong
But that's not where I belong

(Chorus)

Slaloming between the cars
Drinking from an empty jar
I tried to use a different tongue
Before I found where I belong

(Chorus)

I just wanted to stay there
Standing at the top of the stairs
I just wanted to stand there
Watching people walk in pairs

(Chorus)

I'd like to end it here
No one's gonna push me anywhere
I know that I am not wrong
When I say this is where I belong

(Chorus)

[12] Ear To The Ground [X.Boyer/Tahiti 80]

Oh it took me quite a some time
To find out what the fuss was all about
I'm not sure I can tell the difference between good and bad
I just happen to know that what you did wasn't right

It's better to stay away
From games you don't know how to play
And when you notice it's too late anyway
Cause they change the rules day after day.

Oh I can't believe how far I went
To fine out what teh bell was going on
I'm pretty sure that you must, you must have cross my path
But I missed you I was looking for someone I knew

It's hard to stay awake
When all you wanna do is slip away
So you keep an ear to the ground
Until all your demons come running around
Running around

[13] Too Close To The Sun [X.Boyer/Tahiti 80]

One day I got too close to the sun
She brunt my wings and I fell to the ground
Too late to make up for a head-dress
The wind blew away, my feathers and the rest

Chorus:
I don't blame anyone
I only wanted to have fun
I found out on my own
I was weaker than I thought

Walking along the bottom of a swimming pool
Till I was out, out of my depth
I'm sorry, byt I never even knew your name
Thanks for pulling me out.

Chorus:

Sweet thing get me high sgain pleas
Sweet love get me high again pleas
Oh Baby you know I can't resist a tease
Sweet love get me high again please,

Chorus:
(don't blame it on the sun)

One day I got too close to the sun
She brunt my wings and I fell to the ground
