They dropped things on his back, They lied, lied, lied, lied, lied. But they couldn't stop Jack, 'or the waters lapping, And they couldn't prevent Jack from being happy.

There's nothing in the way I walk that could tell you where I'm going,
There's nothing in the words I speak that can betray anything I'm knowing, Don't think about the way I dress, you can fit me on a labelled shelf, Don't pretend that you know me 'cause I don't even know myself, Ooh I don't know myself. I don't mind if you try once in a while, I don't mind if I cry once in a while, The doors aren't shut as tight as they might seem, I'm just trying to fight my way out of this dream. Don't listen to the words I say, weighing up if I'm enlightened, Don't shiver as you pass me by, 'cause mister I'm the one who's frightened, The police just came and left, they wanted me and no one else, Don't pretend that you know me 'cause I don't even know myself, I said I don't know myself. I don't mind if you try once in a while, I don't mind if I cry once in a while, The doors aren't shut as tight as they might seem, I'm just trying to fight my way out of this dream. Do you remember me, I don't remember you, Do you still love me, you know I think you do, I have been gone, and some prison warder knows my scream, I'm just trying to fight my way out of this dream. There's only five who know my real name, And my mother don't believe they know it, What she called me is the way I'm staying, And no one'll ever know it, Come on all of you big boys, come on all of you elves, Don't pretend that you know me 'cause I don't even know myself, I said I don't know myself. I don't mind if you try once in a while, And I don't mind if I cry once in a while. |

Well I reckon she's cool and I reckon rightly, She's good looking and I ain't frightened, I'm gonna show you why they call me lightning. Hey little girl who's dancing so lightly, My XKE is shining so brightly, The noose around us is slowly tightening, I'm gonna show you why they call me lightning.

Local Lad:
Ever since I was a young boy, I've played the silver ball. )From Soho down to Brighton I must have played them all. But I ain't seen nothing like him In any amusement hall... That deaf dumb and blind kid Sure plays a mean pin ball ! He stands like a statue, Becomes part of the machine. Feeling all the bumpers Always playing clean. He plays by intuition, The digit counters fall. That deaf dumb and blind kid Sure plays a mean pin ball ! He's a pin ball wizard There has got to be a twist. A pin ball wizard, S'got such a supple wrist. 'How do you think he does it? I don't know! What makes him so good?' He ain't got no distractions Can't hear those buzzers and bells, Don't see lights a flashin' Plays by sense of smell. Always has a replay, 'n' never tilts at all... That deaf dumb and blind kid Sure plays a mean pin ball. I thought I was The Bally table king. But I just handed My pin ball crown to him. Even my usual table He can beat my best. His disciples lead him in And he just does the rest. He's got crazy flipper fingers Never seen him fall... That deaf dumb and blind kind Sure plays a mean pin ball.!!!!! |

You think we look pretty good together
You think my shoes are made of leather But I'm a substitute for another guy I look pretty tall but my heels are high The simple things you see are all complicated I look pretty young, but I'm just back-dated, yeah Substitute your lies for fact I can see right through your plastic mac I look all white, but my dad was black My fine looking suit is really made out of sack I was born with a plastic spoon in my mouth The north side of my town faced east, and the east was facing south And now you dare to look me in the eye Those crocodile tears are what you cry It's a genuine problem, you won't try To work it out at all you just pass it by, pass it by Substitute me for him Substitute my coke for gin Substitute you for my mum At least I'll get my washing done |

I looked under chairs
I looked under tables I try to find the key To fifty million fables They call me the seeker I've been searchin' low and high I won't get to get what I'm after Till the day I die I asked Bobby Dylan I asked the Beatles I asked Timothy Leary But he couldn't help me either They call me the seeker I've been searchin' low and high I won't get to get what I'm after Till the day I die People tend to hate me Cause I never smile As I ransack their homes they wanna shake my hand Focusin' on nowhere Investigatin' miles I'm a seeker I'm a really desperate man I won't get to get what I'm after Till the day I die I learned how to raise my voice in anger Yeah but look at my face, ain't this a smile I'm happy when life's good, and when it's bad I cry I got values but I don't know how or why I'm lookin' for me You're lookin' for you We're lookin' at each other and we don't know what to do They call me the seeker I've been searchin' low and high I won't get to get what I'm after Till the day I die |

And I moved
As I saw him looking in through my window His eyes were silent lies And I moved And I saw him standing in the doorway His figure merely filled the space And I moved But I moved toward him And I moved And his hands felt like ice exciting As he laid me back just like an empty dress And I moved But a minute later, he was weeping His tears, his only truth And I moved But I moved toward him I moved toward him |

I was always here in the silence
But I was never under your eye Gather up your love in some wiseness For every memory shall always survive And you will see me I am an animal My teeth are sharp, and my mouth is full And the passion is so strong When I'm alone, loneliness will change me I am a vegetable I get my body badly pulled And I'm rooted to the spot Nothing will rearrange me I'm looking back, and I can't see the past Anymore, so hazy I'm on a track, and I'm travelling so fast Oh, for sure I'm crazy I am a human being And I don't believe all the things I'm seeing I've got nowhere to hide anymore I'm losing my way I am an angel I booked in here, I came straight from hell And I don't know how to lie anymore I'm boozing to pray I'm looking back, and I can't see the past Anymore, so hazy I'm on a track, and I'm travelling so fast Oh, for sure I'm crazy I was always here in the silence But I was never under your eye Gather up your love in some wiseness Every memory shall always survive And you will see me I will be immersed Queen of the fucking Universe And I don't know what I have anymore Anymore than you do I am a nothing king Been right around on a golden ring I don't know where you are anymore I've got no clue I'm looking back, and I can't see the past Anymore, so hazy I'm on a track, and I'm travelling so fast Oh, for sure I'm crazy I am an animal |

They don't give a shit Keith Moon is dead Is that exactly what I though I read? Typewriter tappers You're all just crappers You listen to love with your intellect A4 pushers You're all just cushions Morality ain't measured in a room He wrecked. Anyone can buy some leather Ain't no better than wearing sheep Anyone can sell luck heather You can see that words are cheap! But did you read the stuff that Julie said? Or little Jimmy with his hair died red? They have a standard of perfection there That you and me can never share Typewriter bangers on You're all just hangers on Everyone's human except Jools and Jim Late copy churners Rock and Roll learners Your hearts are melting in pools Of gin But I know for sure that if we met up eye to eye A little wine would bring us closer, you and I Cause you're right, hypocrisy will be the death of me And there's an I before e when you're spelling ecstasy And you, you two Did you here the stuff that Krishna said? Or know for you that Jesus' blood was shed? Is it in your heart or in your head? Or does the truth lay in the center spread?

When a letter came from Southampton way Keep on working Keep on working I must admit I was a bit in the red But if you never have pleasure then you could be dead Keep on working Keep on working But there's on thing They can't take away Hear the sea sing See a smiling face I think we're OK Though we all could be mad That's what they say We just can't all be bad I got something now to think about I'll work all day but not to pay it out Keep on working Keep on working Don't care if they say where a dying race I'd rather be here than any other place Keep on working Keep on working And there's another whirl They can't ever touch Just need a boy and girl It don't cost you much And if your luck is in you might have kids at play To make you laugh and sing When you're old and gray |

When people keep
ing That you'll never fall in love When everybody keeps retreating But you can't seem to get enough Let my love open the door Let my love open the door Let my love open the door To your heart When everything feels all over When everybody seems unkind I bring you a four leaf clover Take all the worry out of your mind Let my love open the door Let my love open the door Let my love open the door To your heart I have the only key to your heart I can stop you falling apart Try today, you'll find this way Come on and give me a chance to say Let my love open the door It's all I'm living for Release yourself from misery There's only one thing gonna set you free That's my love Let my love open the door Let my love open the door Let my love open the door When tragedy befalls you Don't let it drag you down Love can cure your problems You're so lucky I'm around Let my love open the door Let my love open the door Let my love open the door To your heart |

The tissue box is empty
No coffee for my cream Dogs howl in the alley Crazy women scream Some kids shout from there pick up truck There stoned on life and beer Fifty radios playing in this street But I'm still hardly here Exquisitely bored in California We take our trouble to the Crest Exquisitely bored in California Exquisitely bored, Just like all the rest When the sun shines things'll get moving You feel close to the stars There are good times walking in Laguna But it rains in my heart The peasants here are starving They look out there barrels out in space Pray TV looks like pay TV to me It's just a curse on the human race I take a drive up to L.A. In my gas guzzling limousine There's a whole lot of crazy people up there Living out a life in sweet ennui Exquisitely bored in California We take our trouble to the Crest Exquisitely bored in California Exquisitely bored, Just like all the rest When the sun shines things'll get moving You feel close to the stars There are good times walking in Laguna But it rains in my heart Exquisitely bored in California We take our trouble to the Crest Exquisitely bored in California Exquisitely bored, Just like all the rest |

When you travel to the green hills of Ayr
Where the sea breaks windows on the border line Remember me to a girl who lives there For she once was a true love of mine Please see for me that her red hair is long And flows and curls down to her back and breast Please see for me that her red hair is long For that's the way I remember her best North country girl (Oh-oh-oh) North country girl (Oh-oh-oh) North country girl (Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh) North country girl See that she's warm when the summer ends When trees are bare and the rivers freeze She washes her clothes where the river bends She's working on her knees See for me that her coat's pulled up close And her beret frames her sweet, pretty face See that she's warm and drink her a toast For I am exiled in a lonely place Please let me know if she remembers me at all A hundred times I've hoped and prayed That way up there near the Roman wall She didn't suffer when the fall-out sprayed North country girl (Oh-oh-oh) North country girl (Oh-oh-oh) North country girl (Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh) North country girl |

I was just thirty-four years old and I was still wandering in a haze
I was wondering why everyone I met seemed like they were Lost in a maze I don't know why I thought I should have some kind of Divine right to the blues It's sympathy not tears people need when they're the Front page sad news. The incense burned away and the stench began to rise And lovers now estranged avoided catching each others' eyes And girls who lost their children cursed the men who fit the coil And men not fit for marriage took their refuge in the oil No one respects the flame quite like the fool who's badly burned From all this you'd imagine that there must be something learned Slit skirts, Jeanie never wears those slit skirts I don't ever wear no ripped shirts Can't pretend that growing older never hurts. Knee pants, Jeanie never wears no knee pants Have to be so drunk to try a new dance So afraid of every new romance Slit skirts, slit skirt Jeanie isn't wearing those slit skirts, slit skirt She wouldn't dare in those slit skirts, slit skirt Wouldn't be seen dead in no slit skirt Slit skirts, slit skirt Jeanie isn't wearing those slit skirts, slit skirt She wouldn't dare in those slit skirts, slit skirt Wouldn't be seen dead in no slit skirt Romance, romance, why aren't we thinking up romance? Why can't we drink it up true heart romance Just need a brief new romance Let me tell you some more about myself, you know I'm sitting at home just now. The big events of the day are passed and the late TV shows have come around. I'm number one in the home team, but I still feel unfulfilled. A silent voice in her broken heart complaining that I'm unskilled. And I know that when she thinks of me, she thinks of me as him, But, unlike me, she don't work off her frustration in the gym. Recriminations fester and the past can never change A woman's expectations run from both ends of the range Once she walked with untamed lovers' face between her legs Now he's cooled and stifled and it's she who has to beg Slit skirts, Jeanie never wears those slit skirts And I don't ever wear no ripped shirts Can't pretend that growing older never hurts Knee pants, Jeanie never wears no knee pants We have to be so drunk to try a new dance So afraid of every new romance Slit skirts, slit skirt Jeanie isn't wearing those slit skirts, slit skirt She wouldn't dare in those slit skirts, slit skirt Wouldn't be seen dead in no slit skirt Slit skirts, slit skirt Jeanie isn't wearing those slit skirts, slit skirt She wouldn't dare in those slit skirts, slit skirt Wouldn't be seen dead in no slit skirt Romance, romance, why aren't we thinking up romance? Why can't we drink it up true heart romance Just need a brief new romance |

Stardom in Acton, that's all they got
Stardom in Acton, that's all they got Stardom in Acton, that's all they got Just like the grub that wriggles to the top of the mass I'm the first to get hooked Just like the stub of that long cigarette full of hash I'm the last to get booked But I'm capable My love's inescapable Conquering lethargy I've got energy (Stardom) I want a hit Want my tan, want my cash, want my innocence (Stardom) I want a script Want my band, want my stash, want omnipotence I'll go where the senescent soldier retires And shiver in south California Watching the storms and the tangling wires And rivers that meet on the corner Like some prostitute Handing 'round the loot I am not ashamed I will stake a claim (Stardom) Born in a trunk Got my home, got my car, got stability (Stardom) I'm Hollywood's son All alone don't admire anonymity I'm so angry that you turned me on I didn't remain your friend too long I'm so angry that you turned me on I didn't stay your friend for too long I'm so angry that you let me see My totally futile destiny I'm so angry, you interrupted my dream Now I know that the power rests in me (Stardom) I want a hit Want my tan, want my cash, want my innocence (Stardom) I want a script Want my band, want my stash, want omnipotence (Stardom) Born in a trunk Got my home, got my car, got stability (Stardom) But I'm Hollywood's son All alone don't admire anonymity Stardom in Acton, that's all they got Stardom in Acton, that's all they got Stardom in Acton, that's all they got Stardom in Acton, that's all they got Stardom Stardom |

A love born once must soon be born again
A spark that burned, then died, leaving cinders to be fanned By the wind and thrown to flame Flames like tongues impassioned in a moments burst Tell me, friend, why do you stand aloof from your own heart? The truth confronts you, the truth confronts you as the sea Crushing with out detail Impassioned and detached Killing with love and power in God's Name People stop hurting people People stop hurting people Love conquers poses Love smashes stances Love crushes angles into black So you, without question Know your first love is your last And you will never, you never, never, you'll never love again But always wish to walk with her into restaurants, it's a clammy tale To be seen beside her at the public bar footrail I always wanted to be matched with her Yet her beauty was so different to mine My "beauty" needs an understanding and a knowledge of what I am Hers is enough, earned through eons, for that is what true beauty is Time's gift to perfect humility May I be matched with you again I know the match is bad But God help me May I be matched with you again I know the match is bad But God help me May I be matched with you again I know the match is bad God help me May I be matched with you again Without your match, there is no flame People stop hurting people People stop hurting people People stop hurting people People stop hurting people People stop hurting people People stop hurting people People stop hurting people People stop hurting people |

I remember being richer than a king
The minutes of the day were golden I recall that when the joint passed 'round My body felt a little colder But now I'm like a sewer channel Running lime and scag Let me get at the master panel Let me at my stack The sea refuses no river And right now This river's banks are blown The sea refuses no river Whether stinking and rank Or red from the tank Whether pure as a spring There's no damn thing stops the poem The sea refuses no river And this river is homeward flowing I have seen a trace of strain In other's eyes, not spoken I must admit that I enjoyed their pain But this time it's me that's broken I demand for you and His This must be the time When we decide what freedom is Turn water into wine For the sea refuses no river We're polluted now But in our hearts still clean The sea refuses no river We tried not to age But time had it's rage We're washed over the stones From babies into clones of the mean The sea won't refuse this muddy river Won't deny the sulfurous stream There was a fool in a dressing robe Riding out the twilight hour Lonely and cold in an empty home Trying to assess his power But now he's like a stream in flood Swollen by the storm He doesn't care if he sheds his blood Let him be reborn The sea refuses no river Remember that When the beggar buys a round The sea refuses no river And rain fills the gutters No time for stutters This is our chance To sing and to dance and to clown The sea refuses no river And rivers were sprung to drown The sea refuses no river No pecking code Respected for the damned The sea refuses no river Whether starving and ill Or strung on some pill Just 'cos you own the land There's no unique hand plugs the dam The sea refuses no river And the river is where I am The river is where I am |

I don't matter, you don't matter
Neither does this mindless clatter It don't matter where you're from What matters is your uniform Wear your braces 'round your seat Doctor Marten's on your feet Keep your bar net very neat For credibility on street We are marching as to war We won't be obscure no more In uniform, in uniform I am really living life inside a jar: I'm all alone So I feel forgiven if I'm under par, a fallen clone Only in the river can I claim a star to call my own I'm newly born In uniform I'm up on the throne I am frightened, you are frightened Should we get our trousers tightened? Where in Brighton is your norm Who wears enlightened uniform? On my Parka is some band I don't really understand Perry is my guiding hand Scooter polo sweeps the land We are marching as to war We won't be obscure no more In uniform, in uniform People think we dress alike to segregate identities Pills or drink or puffing pipes in integrated entities Then they wink and snort their line, and say how great their Bentley is They feel so warm when they conform They say that nakedness is what our Lord intended When we stand naked, then we all appear the same But it's just faking it if we all try pretending Are we're just making all our prayers in the rain Heaven knows I need new clothes We are marching as to war But we are really fighting for Our uniform, our uniform When I contemplate my future, I go numb, don't feel a thing I don't overrate my suitors number one, I always sing But the State and their computers make me run for comfort in My uniform In uniform I feel like a king They say that nakedness is what our Lord intended When we stand naked, then we all appear the same But it's just faking it if we all try pretending Are we just making all our prayers in the rain? It seems insane But Heaven knows It's all the same And I need new clothes |

How dare you wear robes and reside
How dare you cover your head to hide Your face from God How dare you smile from behind your beard To hide the fact your heart's afeared And wave your rod How dare you be the one to assess Me, in this God-forsaken mess You, a man, in a purple dress A man in a purple dress You are all the same Gilded and absurd Regal, fast to blame Rulers by lost word Men above men, or prats In your high hats You priest, you mullah so high You pope, you wise rabbi You're invisible to me Like vapour on the sea How dare you? Do you think I'll quietly go? You are much braver than you know For I can't die Your staff, your stick, your special cap They'll protect in Hell? What crap! Believe the lie How dare you be the one to assess Me, in this God-forsaken mess You, a man, in a purple dress A man in a purple dress When you place your frown Between my God and prayer However grand your crown Or dignified your hair Men above men, or prats In your high hats You priest, you mullah so high You pope, you wise rabbi You're invisible to me Like vapour on the sea I lovingly mock you noble lords We all dress up to grand awards I do that as well I dare condemn your fashion sense At least you're not astride a fence That would not sell But I will deliver this address Your soul's condition don't impress You, a man, in a purple dress A man in a purple dress |

No one knows what it's like
To be the bad man To be the sad man Behind blue eyes No one knows what it's like To be hated To be fated To telling only lies But my dreams They aren't as empty As my conscience seems to be I have hours, only lonely My love is vengeance That's never free No one knows what it's like To feel these feelings Like I do And I blame you No one bites back as hard On their anger None of my pain and woe Can show through But my dreams They aren't as empty As my conscience seems to be I have hours, only lonely My love is vengeance That's never free When my fist clenches, crack it open Before I use it and lose my cool When I smile, tell me some bad news Before I laugh and act like a fool And if I swallow anything evil Put your finger down my throat And if I shiver, please give me a blanket Keep me warm, let me wear your coat No one knows what it's like To be the bad man To be the sad man Behind blue eyes |

You jumped out of an alley
With surprise in your black widow's eyes I was prepared to be unprepared Been preparing for lights I fell right in love with you Into a thousand parts I blew I fell right in love with you I was caught in a corner He recoiled from a broken romance Taking breath after once undead I had a firm grip on my pants I fell right in love with you Through a hundred hearts you flew I fell right in love with you Strange that when infatuation calls We think that we've got real love in our life It pumps like the pressure in a station hall As the express train thunders on by I fell right in love with you As the blood came blowing through I fell right in love with you Across the room I saw your eyes Black window looking back at me You held a gun As children cried You touched some wires They shattered me I was blown into a blue There'd been nothing I could do I fell right in love with you I rose up to the station Smelt your scent by the door You stood waiting so patient Just one wait, then no more I fell right in love with you There'd been nothing I could do I fell right in love with you Across the room I saw your eyes Black window looking back at me You held a gun As children cried You touched some wires They shattered me |

I'd been asleep forever I opened one eye 'Twas then it was I Got the whim to wake And when the weight of space Rolled like it was an ocean One became one Father and son Watched the sunrise break And as the ocean warmed And from this dream we woke One sang to greet the dawn One pursed his lips and spoke Wake up and hear the music Wake up and hear the music play Wake up and hear the music Wake up and hear what the people say I heard the heavens sing Predicting Marty Robbins I knew I'd find Music and time Were the perfect plan I watched my son sail on A little ship a-bobbin' I had to grow I needed to know Exactly who I am And as the ocean warmed And from this dream we woke One sang to greet the dawn One pursed his lips and spoke Wake up and hear the music Wake up and hear the music play Wake up and hear the music Wake up and hear what the people say Wake up and hear the music Wake up and hear the music play Wake up and hear the music Wake up and hear what the people say |

We're not strong enough!
We're not young enough! We're not long enough, Not cold enough Emotionally we're not even old enough! Late at night, we're in a video-game dream, There is no lover in this numbered scene We summon every childhood ghost we've seen, Then suddenly we hear that Mike Post Theme, (Chorus) Everything is alright (ba-do-ba) We pray today (ba-ba-ba-do-ba) Everything is OK (ba-do-ba) We play today Late at night, on the underground train, Through endless suburbs in endless pain, Then deep in the tunnel under the London rain, Suddenly we hear Mike Post Again, (Chorus) We watch those films, That make men cry, Young lovers kiss, Then fight, and die, We start to yearn, we climb the vine, We have to face the truth sometime. We're not strong enough! We're not young enough! We're not long enough, Not cold enough Emotionally we're not even old enough! Well late at night we found our racing team, We're faced with women and reality games, We feel alive, We feel new and blind, We're hearing Mike Post in the air this time (Chorus) We watch those films, That make men cry, Young lovers kiss, Then fight, and die, We start to yearn, we climb the vine, We have to face the truth sometime |

If you don't hear me, how can I tell you
If you don't listen, why should I speak If you're indifferent, how can I reach you Just 'cos you're angry don't assume I'm weak Howling Wolf, and old Link Wray Dave Van Ronk and Doris Day Bobby Darin, Brownie McGhee Elvis, Buddy and Eddie C. Music makes me, makes me strong Strong vibrations, make me long Long for a place where I belong You will find me in this song. Who will walk through the mirror door Will there be music, or will there be war Will we be rich, or will we be poor Who will walk through the mirror door Who will walk through the mirror door Will there be music, or will there be war Will we be rich, or will we be poor Who will walk through the mirror door A thousand angels, a million children Fire and fear in a suicide eye Golden stairway to a Zeppelin heaven Rolling thunder under New York sky Frank 'n' Ella, Ray 'What'd I Say' Johnny Cash and Johnnie Ray Amadeus and Ludvig Van Henry, Johann and the doo dah band. We are here in celebration This music's gonna make us strong We climb up high, to the golden station Curtis Mayfield ain't waiting long (Get on board...) Who will walk through the mirror door Will there be music, or will there be war Will we be rich, or will we be poor Who will walk through the mirror door Who will walk through the mirror door Will there be music, or will there be war Will we be rich, or will we be poor Who will walk through the mirror door Howling Wolf, and old Link Wray Dave Van Ronk and Doris Day Bobby Darin, Brownie McGhee Elvis, Buddy and Eddie C. Frank 'n' Ella, Ray 'What'd I Say' Johnny Cash and Johnnie Ray Amadeus and Ludvig Van Henry, Johann and the doo dah band. Keep on climbing |

Your mother loves her brother
But her brother loves his lover And his lover is my cover My one and only other - my angel My angel Trilby Who said I will be What I should still be Genius would fill me - she loves Hymie Only one Hymie No one else on earth could ever blind me - like this Or even find me - such bliss If you were gone You'd still be here Only one Hymie Why can't they see that life excites me This boy ignites me His family fights me But he's still here Only one Hymie... |

Two thousand years
Two thousand years Two thousand years Two thousand years Have I waited To ask if I have loved you To know if I have served you To find if I've obeyed you To know if I've betrayed you Two thousand years Two thousand years Two thousand years Two thousand years Two thousand years Have I waited Then find I can't be perfect Not even a perfect snake To know that we are hated You suffer for my sake Two thousand years Two thousand years Two thousand years Two thousand years Have I waited And so I have a chance to love As you intended You really lived and died for me Is the waiting really ended Two thousand years Long, long years Long, long, long, long years I have waited Two thousand long, long years Two thousand long, long years Two thousand long, long years Two thousand long, long years Two thousand long, long years Two thousand long, long years |

Three kids from the neighborhood
Three different lives Three different ways to be The identical smiles We're not the same But we can talk We kiss and link our arms We take a walk We watch the tide ever way Carry our ides through the sea We hear the music Remember being free We are unholy trinity And love forever But we are the sea We are the ocean We are the free We are unholy trinity |

We'll be fighting in the streets
With our children at our feet And the morals that they worship will be gone And the men who spurred us on Sit in judgement of all wrong They decide and the shotgun sings the song I'll tip my hat to the new constitution Take a bow for the new revolution Smile and grin at the change all around Pick up my guitar and play Just like yesterday Then I'll get on my knees and pray We don't get fooled again The change, it had to come We knew it all along We were liberated from the foe, that's all And the world looks just the same And history ain't changed 'Cause the banners, they'd all flown in the last war I'll tip my hat to the new constitution Take a bow for the new revolution Smile and grin at the change all around Pick up my guitar and play Just like yesterday Then I'll get on my knees and pray We don't get fooled again No, no! I'll move myself and my family aside If we happen to be left half alive I'll get all my papers and smile at the sky For I know that the hypnotized never lie Do ya? Yeaaaaaaaaaaaaaa! There's nothing in the street Looks any different to me And the slogans are out-phased, by-the-bye And the party on the left Is now party on the right And their beards have all grown longer overnight I'll tip my hat to the new constitution Take a bow for the new revolution Smile and grin at the change all around Pick up my guitar and play Just like yesterday Then I'll get on my knees and pray We don't get fooled again Don't get fooled again No, no! Yeaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaah! Meet the new boss Same as the old boss |

When I'm in trouble
You stand by me When I see double You stand by me You take my side Against those who lied You take my side Gimme back my pride When I been losing You stand by me When I been boozin' You stand by me You take my side Against those who lied You take my side Gimme back my pride I suppose I could make it all my own I know I'd arrive all skin and all bone You are the strongest back I've ever known You carried me, carried me, carried me You carried me home When I'm crying You stand by me When I am dying You stand by me |

Why should I care?
Why should I care? Girls of fifteen Sexually knowing The ushers are sniffing Eau-de-cologning The seats are seductive Celibate sitting Pretty girls digging Prettier women Magically bored On a quiet street corner Free frustration In our minds and our toes Quiet stormwater M-m-my generation Uppers and downers Either way, blood flows Inside outside Leave me alone Inside outside Nowhere is home Inside outside Where have I been? Out of my brain On the five fifteen! Out of my brain on the train Out of my brain On the train On a raft in the quarry Slowly sinking On the back of a lorry Holy hitching Dreadfully sorry Apple scrumping Born in the war Birthday punching He-man drag In the glittering ballroom Gravely outrageous In my high heel shoes Tightly undone Know what they're showing Sadly ecstatic That their heroes are news Inside outside Leave me alone Inside outside Nowhere is home Inside outside Where have I been? Out of my brain On the five fifteen! Out of my brain on the train Out of my brain on the train on the train Woah I'm out of my brain Out of my brain on the train Here it comes Woo, out of my brain On the train on the train Out of my brain on the train Why should I care? Why should I care? |

Out here in the fields
I fight for my meals I get my back into my living I don't need to fight To prove I'm right I don't need to be forgiven Don't cry Don't raise your eye It's only teenage wasteland Sally ,take my hand Travel south crossland Put out the fire Don't look past my shoulder The exodus is here The happy ones are near Let's get together Before we get much older Teenage wasteland It's only teenage wasteland Teenage wasteland Oh, oh Teenage wasteland They're all wasted! |

I'd gladly lose me to find you
I'd gladly give up all I had To find you I'd suffer anything and be glad I'd pay any price just to get you I'd work all my life and I will To win you I'd stand naked, stoned and stabbed I'd call that a bargain The best I ever had The best I ever had I'd gladly lose me to find you I'd gladly give up all I got To catch you I'm gonna run and never stop I'd pay any price just to win you Surrender my good life for bad To find you I'm gonna drown an unsung man I'd call that a bargain The best I ever had The best I ever had I sit looking 'round I look at my face inm the mirror I know I'm worth nothing without you And like one and one don't make two One and one make one And I'm looking for that free ride to me I'm looking for you I'd gladly lose me to find you I'd gladly give up all I got To catch you I'm gonna run and never stop I'd pay any price just to win you Surrender my good life for bad To find you I'm gonna drown an unsung man I'd call that a bargain The best I ever had The best I ever had |

No one knows what it's like
To be the bad man To be the sad man Behind blue eyes No one knows what it's like To be hated To be fated To telling only lies But my dreams They aren't as empty As my conscience seems to be I have hours, only lonely My love is vengeance That's never free No one knows what it's like To feel these feelings Like I do And I blame you No one bites back as hard On their anger None of my pain and woe Can show through But my dreams They aren't as empty As my conscience seems to be I have hours, only lonely My love is vengeance That's never free When my fist clenches, crack it open Before I use it and lose my cool When I smile, tell me some bad news Before I laugh and act like a fool And if I swallow anything evil Put your finger down my throat And if I shiver, please give me a blanket Keep me warm, let me wear your coat No one knows what it's like To be the bad man To be the sad man Behind blue eyes |

There are men high up there fishing,
Haven't seen quite enough of the world, I ain't seen a sign of my heroes, And I'm still diving down for pearls. Let me flow into the ocean, Let me get back to the sea. Let me be stormy and let me be calm, Let the tide in, and set me free. I'm flowing under bridges, Then flying through the sky, I'm travelling down cold metal Just a tear in baby's eye. Let me flow into the ocean Let me get back to the sea Let me be stormy and let me be calm Let the tide in, rush over me. I am not the actor This can't be the scene But I am in the water, As far as I can see... I'm remembering distant memories Recalling other names. Rippling over canyons, And boiling in the train. Let me [etc.] |

I'm singing this note 'cause it fits in well
With the chords I'm playing I can't pretend there's any meaning here Or in the things I'm saying But I'm in tune Right in tune I'm in tune And I'm gonna tune Right in on you Right in on you Right in on you I get a little tired of having to say "Do you come here often?" But when I look in your eyes and see the harmonies And the heartaches soften I'm getting in tune Right in tune I'm in tune And I'm gonna tune Right in on you (right in on you) Right in on you (right in on you) Right in on you I've got it all here in my head There's nothing more needs to be said I'm just bangin' on my old piano I'm getting in tune with the straight and narrow (Getting in tune with the straight and narrow) Getting in tune with the straight and narrow (Getting in tune with the straight and narrow) Yeah, I'm getting in tune with the straight and narrow (Getting in tune with the straight and narrow) I'm singing this note 'cause it fits in well With the way I'm feeling There's a symphony that I hear in your heart Sets my head a-reeling But I'm in tune Right in tune I'm in tune And I'm gonna tune Right in on you (right in on you) Right in on you (right in on you) Right in on you Baby, with you Baby, with you Baby, with you Baby, with you Baby, with you I've got it all here in my head There's nothing more needs to be said I'm just bangin' on my old piano I'm getting in tune with the straight and narrow Getting in tune with the straight and narrow {repeat} |
