Claire
The woman who lives down the stairs It's easy to see when she's there She leaves the light on in the hall where The carpets and cupboards are bare If she has anything to declare She never speaks to me at all So I won't go asking for a miracle I'm only going through with a dare Come on Claire Claire There's something the two of us share Shakin our fists in the air Waiting against everything in sight It's not fair Suffer and nobody cares Cryin' alone in your chair The same as I do every night And if you keep it up just to be beautiful You know its gonna drive you spare So come on Claire Come on Claire Come on Claire I know that your husband's in there Did you tell him about the affair I saw his Volvo in the lane I could swear He'll be grabbing a hold of your hair Where the passion is raw as it's rare But I'll bet you're driving him insane again And does he tell you that you still look beautiful In the mini-scrubs you used to wear? Oh come on Claire Come on Claire Come on Claire Come on Claire Oh come on Claire Oh come on Claire Come on Claire |

Skipper to captain
I'm running aground Swell of the ocean Is dragging me down You could be steamin ahead now But we're drifing apart Give me somewhere to jump from Somewhere to start Santa Maria, I'm sailing away It'll never be nearer To what I want to say Bridge on the ocean Crossing my heart Give me somewhere to jump from Somewhere to start, again There's only one thing can keep me breathing I need someone who can believe in me Sound of the story I've heard it before And it's hardly a thriller At least not anymore We're out on the rooftops And under the rain And it's somewhere to jump from Somewhere to start again The way that people always need to do Full of fantasies that won't come true But things won't go that way for me and you This is something new Only one thing can keep me breathing I need someone who can believe in me What could be better Than falling in love The city below us It's cloudy above We're out on the rooftops And under the rain And it's somewhere to jump from Somewhere to start again |

Hey hey, hey hey, hey hey
Got a man in uniform Riding up my day He never said where he was from And we were better off that way There was something in the way When he was polishing his buckle So well he would see his reflection But the sparkle's gone Reckless with his seatbelt And his foot is on the pedal And his keys in the ignition But the handbrake's on Hey hey, hey hey, hey hey Hey hey, hey hey And every time I look around I see couples everywhere As if my world was falling down As if anyone would care Huggin and a-kissin It's a world of things I'm missing I ain't got a pot to piss in And in all my talk It's pretty inconceivable In fact it's unbelievable I'm not so bloody leavable Oh my God Hey hey, hey hey, hey hey Hey hey, hey hey Keep me satisfied Keep me warm at night I'm not after all the sake or the sushi in Japan I'm a-waiting for my man Hey hey, hey hey, hey hey Hey hey, hey hey Around the time I took it back He had a handlebar mustache He was a hypochondriac And he looked like Graham Nash The place that he lived in was a really really really really really nice place But I got sick and tired of trying To explain he wasn't dying It was only influenza or a common cold Fearin at my worst I went and got a proper nurse And then they hit it off together Now they're growin old Hey hey, hey hey, hey hey Hey hey, hey hey So he got a fisherman instead But his chaff was out of line Trying to get me into bed He said "Your place or mine?" But I had to kill the moment, funny feeling in my stomach Made a date, I took the bait The bugger reeled me in But I had to avoid him now That there was something bout his smile It was tiny at the time But now it's wearing thin Hey hey, hey hey, hey hey Hey hey, hey hey Keep me satisfied Keep me warm at night I'm not after all the sake Or the sushi in Japan I'm just waiting for my mister tambourine man Hey hey, hey hey, hey hey Hey hey, hey hey Then Malcolm came along And stole away my heart I know he's the one Cause I read it in my chart He was born in January I was born in August I'm a Leo that's a lion He's a Capricorn We were meant to be together And it doesn't matter whether You believe it's in the date and time that you were born Hey hey, hey hey, hey hey Hey hey, hey hey Keep me satisfied Keep me warm at night I'm not after all the sake or the sushi in Japan I'm just waiting for my nowhere man Hey hey, hey hey, hey hey Hey hey, hey hey |

It's a mean old misery
Mean old mister misery came calling Told me what I didn't want to hear Told me girl that you were busy fallin In love with someone else it would appear I swear I never had it in for you love I don't know what was going through my head I never once before betrayed a true love Now all I know is part of me is dead You were the sun in my sky The deed is done You said goodbye And I sit at home and cry If I'd never laid my eyes upon you I'd never have known the sweetness I would miss Hate the way these things They always haunt you Like memories of summer of the kiss You know I swear My love is true You better do What you gotta do But I won't get over you It's a mean old misery The way it all went wrong Is somehow hazy I don't believe my heart will ever mend Already love I'm missing you like crazy Mean old misery's my only friend You must know, I love you dear And when you go, I disappear I'll be wishing you were here |

Why did you leave me?
What did I do? Toured around Europe Then cheated on you Now I'm at the piano With a paper and pen But alliteration alone won't bring you back to me again Oh but I'm only a singer It's all I can do I'm singing a song, a song about you As though you would listen As though you'd be swayed As though you'd fall in love again over something I made But I'm pouring my heart out all over the page Because you've got to do something in this world To run away Yeah but If I were a joiner You know what I'd do (What would I do?) I'd put up a shelf A shelf all about you Yeah all about you All about you I know you know that I miss you I know you know that I cried I know a clever made alate? Won't hide the fact that I've lied Being around you Is so very hard You're like one more establishment From which I've been barred And if I were the landlord What would I do? (What would I do?) I'd open a bar A bar about you If I were a joiner You know what I'd do (What would I do?) I'd put up a shelf A shelf about you All about you Yes all about you All about you All about you |

I haven't seen you in the longest time All I want to do Is get away from you Are you new To the pain Of a heart that's just been cleft in twain All the times before You thought it couldn't hurt anymore Here we are again I haven't seen you since I don't know when And all I want to do Is get away from you Are you new To the pain Of a heart that's just been broken in vain All the times before You thought it couldn't hurt anymore You once were my weakness But now I recall Feelings that really meant nothing at all But don't say it's okay No don't be denied Turn the record over Play the other side (ooh turn the record over) Play the other side (ooh turn the record over) When all is said and done I know that I will never be the one There's nothing I can do There's nothing I can do for you Are you new To the pain Of a heart that's just been broken again All the times before You thought it couldn't hurt anymore You once were my weakness But now I recall Feelings that really meant nothing at all But don't say it's okay No don't be denied Turn the record over Play the other side (turn the record over) (turn the record over) (Play, the other side) (ooh turn the record over) Play the other side (ooh turn the record over) |

Well is this the end
Have I lost my true love My most beautiful friend Do you feel nothing for me Can't you pretend Did I hurt you too deeply Too badly to mend Your love was divine When you came and surrendered To this heart of mine Wild, unpredictable, hard to define Stronger than whiskey And sweeter than wine If you want me I'll be in denial If you want me Love's sweet surprise As they're holding both hands Gazing into both eyes To the time when the shyness No longer applies When it seems unbelievable Love ever dies What can I say You were all that I wanted I drove you away The promise that changed But you left me the same Leaving me and the whiskey To take all the blame If you want me I'll be in denial If you want me I'm here for awhile Oh to have you once more My shirt on your shoulders They keys to your door Your head on my pillow Your clothes on my floor I know you could love me As much as before Cause love never dies It goes into hiding It wears a disguise It waits in the shadows Avoiding your eyes And it follows you everywhere Until you get wise If you want me I'll be in denial If you want me Im here for awhile If you want me If you want me If you want me If you want me Yeah What can I do Not a minute goes by I'm not thinking of you You said that we had different dreams to pursue But it kills me It kills me To think that it's true If you want me I'll be in denial If you want me Have you really gone Are you only material for my next song You're leaving a hole where a heart in me Ought to belong |

The last guy who loved you Was cold and detached He promised the world But he came with a catch He just couldn't see you were dying inside Sometimes these things are too easy to hide I'm giving you an opportunity I'm begging you please I'm down on my knees Oh won't you come on back to me Lisa Marie Cause by the time you hear from me That is the week, a quarter to three I'll be in Memphis, Tennessee Lisa Marie You've got so much on your mind I don't know how you do it baby I'd be inclined To help you through it baby I knew when I saw you You had to be mine I gave myself up until 2009 Nothing can stop us No one's in our way We'll be together until we're old and gray I'm giving you an opportunity I'm begging you please I'm down on my knees Oh won't you come on back to me Lisa Marie Cause by the time you hear from me That is the week, a quarter to three I'll be in Memphis, Tennessee Lisa Marie I'm giving you an opportunity I'm begging you please I'm down on my knees Oh won't you come on back to me Lisa Marie Cause by the time you hear from me That is the week, a quarter to three I'll be in Memphis, Tennessee Lisa Marie Down on my knees, yeah |

Kettle can burn
The river can dry You can wait for heaven alone People can leave without saying goodbye They can roam, they can roam They can roam Somebody began you with a look in their eye You're the product of romance It's under control You should never be shy You can dance, you can dance You can dance You can't talk me round You can't make me love you I'm down as the ground And I'm as blue as the sky above you Horrible truth Thing that you dread Stalking you through the night You open your eyes And you get out of bed And it's alright, it's alright It's alright Cause everything's good Comes to those who wait It's the oldest rule around And whether or not you believe in your fate You're going down, going down Going down You can't talk me round You can't make me love you I'm down as the ground And I'm as blue as the sky above you You can't talk me round You can't make me love you I'm down as the ground And I'm as blue as the sky above you The sky above you Kettle will burn The river will dry You'll wait for heaven alone People who leave without saying goodbye Well they're wrong, well they're wrong Well they're wrong Somebody began you with a look in their eye You're a product of pure chance It's under control You should never be shy But can you dance, can you dance Can you dance You can't talk me round You can't make me love you I'm down as the ground And I'm as blue as the sky above you You can't talk me round You can't make me love you I'm down as the ground And I'm as blue as the sky above you High above you Can't talk me round Can't talk me round Can't talk me round |

It's a kick in the arse
A slap in the face A sulk in the forest And I'm a disgrace And I'll have been all the way to the edge of reason And I just wanna be in the place that she's in tonight Alright Where did it all Go wrong How could I fall I thought I was so strong Yeah to turn back to her When I'm feeling tragic And her eyes are alive It's the same old magic she sees She's brightened to me Oh Wendy went wasted Wendy went wasted Oh Wendy went wasted It's when I want to be with you But you're running around With some guy Is he deeper than me Does he cry Or has he got his act together Does he get the bills You know I can't keep going If we can't be still together Saying that'll be never Oh no But Wendy went wasted Wendy went wasted Wendy went wasted It's when I want to be with you Oh Wendy went wasted Wendy went wasted Oh Wendy went wasted It's when I want to be with you La la la... |

In a little town in Texas
Where we sheltered from the storm Everybody seemed to get us And knew where we were coming from It's like the way you used to hold me And whisper in my ear I wish someone had told me We wouldn't last another year They say the music's all that matters When your dreams are dead and gone And your hearts been broken, shattered And there's nothing left to do Wrong, wrong Well fine, fine Love of mine Gone from my life for good Well I only wish you could I'm mean, mean Like a machine Someone's unplugged my heart I've gotta hope one day it starts to beat again But there's a feeling and it gets inside of me When they play the music loud (play the music loud) It makes me happier than I've got the right to be Only rock and roll can do that now Well you don't stay young forever It's all been said and done before And you should never get too clever Cause every day can be a closing door Yeah lights lie in stupid lines Make a little sense of things But for all the good that brings you When you'll need me like a machine Someone's unplugged your heart You've gotta hope one day it starts to beat again And if you're saying that you want no piece of me I'll be bloody but I won't be bound Cause its not as though you saved me recently Only rock and roll can do that now But there's a feeling and it gets inside of me When they play the music loud (play the music loud) It makes me happier than I've got the right to be Only rock and roll can do that Only rock and roll can do that now |
