she likes to wake up and just fake it she knows if she touches it she'll break it she can see all the houselights fading and the ground beneath her feet is shaking she's singing bye bye my old friend you're never going to see my face again you left me outside in the rain so bye bye mr. a.
[look out] just when you think she's wearing thin she's walking out with the biggest man that you've ever seen she's singing bye bye my old friend you're never going to see my face again it took some time so here i am, so bye bye mr. a.

If this world is wearing thin And you're thinking of escape I'll go anywhere with you Just wrap me up in chains But if you try to go alone Don't think I'll understand
Stay with me Stay with me
In the silence of your room In the darkness of your dreams You must only think of me There can be no in-between When your pride is on the floor I'll make you beg for more
Stay with me Stay with me
You'd better hope and pray That you make it safe Back to your own world You'd better hope and pray That you'll wake one day In your own world
Because when you sleep at night They don't hear your cries In your own world Only time will tell If you can break the spell Back in your own world
woke up this morning and the streets were full of cars all bright and shiny like they'd just arrived from mars and as i stumbled through last nights drunken debris the paperboy screamed out the headlines in the street
another war and now the pound is looking weak and tell me have you read about the latest freak? we're bingo numbers and our names are obsolete why do i feel bitter when i should be feeling sweet
hello, hello turn your radio on is there anybody out there? help me sing my song la la la life is a strange thing just when you think you learned how to use it it's gone
woke up this morning and my head was in a daze a brave new world has dawned upon the human race where words are meaning less and everything's surreal gonna have to reach my friends to find out how i feel
and if i taste the honey is it really sweet and do i eat it with my hands or with my feet? does anybody really listen when i speak or will i have to say it all again next week
hello, hello turn your radio on is there anybody out there? help me sing my song
hello, hello turn your radio on is there anybody out there? tell me what went wrong la la la life is a strange thing life is a strange thing
hello, hello turn your radio on is there anybody out there? help me sing my song la la la life is a strange thing just when you think you learned how to use it it's gone.

(Verse one) Last night I was dreaming I was locked in a prison cell When I woke up I was screaming, calling out your name Whoa, and the judge and the jury, they all put the blame on me They wouldn't go for my story, they wouldn't hear my plea
(Chorus) Only you can set me free 'Cos I'm guilty, guilty as a girl can be Come on baby can't you see I stand accused of love in the first degree Guilty Of love in the first degree
(Verse two) Someday I believe it, you will come to my rescue Unchain my heart you're keeping and let me start anew The hours pass so slowly Since they've thrown away the key Can't you see that I'm lonely Won't you help me please
(Repeat Chorus)
Guilty of love, guilty of love in Guilty of love, guilty of love in Guilty, of love in the first degree
And the judge and the jury, they all put the blame on me They wouldn't hear my story, they wouldn't hear my plea
Its like a magic I've got to have it Whatever lies out of reach of me And to despise it Just magnifies it Can't obliterate the need
(bridge 1) You're bad news disguised Dressed and painted with lies But I just can't see When truth is concealed How the danger appeals But my conscience sees
(chorus) I heard it from the preacher man He said leave that boy alone He's no good for you I heard it from the preacher man He said heaven must have sent you But the devil's gonna get you He's gonna do it for you
You're like a black cat Who always knows that It's life is a mystery You mesmerise me And then you hypnotise me 'Til obsession devours me
(bridge 2) You're silky words soothe me As they move me To ecstasy And just as I'm falling I hear a voice calling Don't believe
Good morning happy dreamer And tell me how are you Feet on the ground Just called to say 'I'm in the mood'
(bridge 1) My car's parked out on the driveway Are you free this afternoon 'Cos it's in need of attention So I'll drop by would that be cool
(chorus) The way that you do What you want me to do Makes me feel alright The way that you drum me The way that you bass me It's outta sight Outta sight Outta sight
I don't believe in wasting My time, so I'll move fast This dream machine Was built to last
(bridge 2) So cruise on down my main street 'Cos I got nothing to hide And polish up your engine We're heading for overdrive
