JOEL
Thru' all the hurt and the pain I don't regret a single day My friends are not the ones who Tell me who my friends should be But don't be afraid, you know you make me happy Remember that I've found myself in Ladbroke Grove Things kept within I should resolve If I could reach backwards I wouldn't change a thing And listen Joel, it won't be easy, it's never easy Remember this .. Don't go with the flow............... Try follow your own path.......... All I want is harmony Like some outmoded sixties throwback I don't feel no destiny you make your own luck if you want it now.... I don't regret a single day .. Once you get hit so often you become numb to everything You find out that you are on your own......... |

TWINSIDE
It thinks it's right when it knows it's wrong It's been like this right from day one It don't need anyone to be its guide But it needs someone on its side And I know that I can't make up my mind I can feel it there's two of me inside, twinside Make way for the end of frustration Make may for the united front One thought for a new situation When it gets so it cannot walk Can't stand up or even talk Like a secret you cannot hide It feels it kicking deep inside * And I know that I can't make up my mind I can feel it there's two of me inside, twinside * Make way for the end of frustration Make may for the united front One thought for a new situation When it feels ready to explode It just sits quiet without a word When the right thinks it knows best The left will go for something else *repeat |

STUCK ON AMBER
Dead in the water, nothing left Except the stench of what has gone before Make some coffee, drink it down And fix upon the pattern on the wall I stare at my face, I stare at my face I know every trace And I make it hard to get along with me I make it hard to get along with me Bills and heartburn, pills and soaps And flickin thru' the books you've read before Tears come easy, words come hard But there really isn't much to say no more I stare at my face, I stare at my face I know every trace And I make it hard to get along with me And I make it hard to get along with me............ ............. |

I was sitting with the band A drink in each hand There wasn't much to say He asked me for my name Said he was glad he came He wished that he could stay I said the only thing I've got more of is time This isn't what you think, and it's not what I thought it would be You've got a lonely face, do you want my place Where there are all the answers Do you wanna join the race, can you keep the pace Or stay and take your chances I was sleeping on my couch I was really out I didn't hear you leave They asked me for some words To clear up all their hurts They wished that they weren't them I said the only thing I've got more of is time This isn't what you think, and it's not what I thought it would be You've got a lonely face, do you want my place Where there are all the answers Do you wanna join the race, can you keep the pace Or stay and take your chances The world is at your feet Try and make something happen You've got a lonely face, do you want my place Where there are all the answers Do you wanna join the race, can you keep the pace Or stay and take your chances........... |

It's easy to hide behind a smile, behind an ugly grace It's easy to talk behind the back, it's harder to the face It's easy to drink than to think, it's all so easy then It's easy to shy away from life, it's hard to be the man Oh come on listen to me, I can't complain I got it easy I've everything I thought I always wanted Even though I'm keeping busy there's something more that still escapes me I had it then, but now it's gone away |

Could I get much colder To live somewhere else In my head and in my heart Is it to much to forgive And if I were much wiser Maybe I would realise That it's not where you are It's who you're with But maybe it's brighter down there Maybe it's wilder Maybe it's brighter down there Maybe it's wilder You have seen the worst of me For that I'm truly sorry It's not you, it's this place And not knowing where to turn Maybe I would be sorry But I need to find out I know you don't understand I can't blame you for that But maybe it's brighter down there Maybe it's wilder maybe it's brighter down there Maybe it's wilder |

We were tight, but it falls apart as silver turns to blue.
Waxing with a candlelight, and burning just for you. Allocate your sentiment, and stick it in a box. I've never been an extrovert, but i'm still breathing. Someone tried to do me ache (it's what I'm afraid of) With hindsight, I was more than blind, lost without a clue. Thought I was getting carat gold, and what I got was you. Stuck inside the circumstances, lonely at the top. I've always been an introvert happily bleeding. Someone tried to do me ache (it's what i'm afraid of) 4 7 2 3 9 8 5 - I gotta breathe to stay alive, and 1 4 2 9 7 8 - feels like I'm gonna suffocate. 14 16 22 - this skin that turns to blister blue. Shoulders toes and knees, I'm 36 degrees, shoulders toes and knees,I'm 36 degrees, shoulder toes and knees, I'm 36 degrees, shoulders toes and knees, I'm 36 degrees. |

TEENAGE ANGST
Shine the headlight, straight into my eyes. Like the roadkill, I'm paralysed. You see through my disguise At the drive-in, double feature, pull the lever, break the fever and say your last goodbyes. Since I was born I started to decay. Now nothing ever ever goes my way One fluid gesture, like stepping back in time. Trapped in amber, petrified. And still not satisfied Airs and social graces, elocution so divine. I'll stick to my needle, and my favourite waste of time, both spineless and sublime. Since I was born I started to decay. Now nothing ever - ever goes my way. |

And you know you shouldn't have another cigarette
But nothing else makes much sense, nothing else will recompense And you get your loneliness out of a magazine You never felt nothing at all, no one else need ever know Another one has dragged you home And sworn that you're the only one You dream they'll play a special part You write their name upon your heart But then it's back inside your head The thought that it will turn out bad A fleeting glimpse of what is bound to be Don't paint blue all the time Know the truth, read the signs Live your life as a lie You don't have to die Now the phone has lost its voice You're on your own again Spend your time on endless bedroom floor soliloquies The only voice you'll hear all day Will it always be this way? (yes) Once you recognize the truth That all is sad and you're the proof You might as well fight the day Kick back at the pricks who say That all is school and work no more Break your back, it's not your war Disengage, the only way to win Don't paint blue all the time Know the truth, read the signs Live your life as a lie You don't have to die Opened up my paintbox, It had all turned to blue I worked in Birkenhead for you It brings me tears even now You tried to kill me, break my will You almost won, I hate you still The hated suffer not, what's worse The hater carries round the curse It eats me up, the cancer that is you Don't paint blue all the time Know the truth, read the signs Live your life as a lie You don't have to die |

It crawled right into his house. The dividends of grubby hands And putting them into your mouth. It set up shop, and would not stop Gorging whatever Meltin could eat. Its exquisite taste, it went to waste On a diet consisting of sweets. Keep away, keep away, keep away Meltin's worm (2x) The doctor came and laid the blame On Meltin's nails, he was biting He made demands they didn't understand Because they couldn't read his writing It grew and grew, and it knew That time was on its side It got such a size, you could see its eyes When Meltin opened his wide Keep away, keep away, keep away Meltin's worm (2x) And there's just one thing it cares about (Grow, grow, grow) Knitting sweaters for the army (Keep me always) Checking numbers off the telly (Keep me always) Making plans with Mr. Felstead (Keep me always) It does it no good, it just needs more food Have you heard of Meltin's worm? It finally killed him to death. Now his Ma feeds it, the uniform fits So she sends it to school instead. (I will always be inside) Keep away, keep away, keep away Meltin's worm (Feed the worm) |

Always coming second best. Pictures of my lover's chest. Get through this night, there are no second chances. This time I might. To ask the sea for answers. Always falling to the floor, softer than it was before. Dog boy - media whore, it's who the hell you take me for. Give up this fight, there are no second chances. This time I might. To ask the sea for answers. These bonds are shackle free, wrapped in lust and lunacy. Tiny touch of jealousy, these bonds are shackle free. Get through this night, there are no second chances.

Never thought you'd make me perspire.
Never thought I'd do you the same. Never thought I'd fill with desire. Never thought I'd feel so ashamed. Me and the dragon can chase all the pain away. So before I end my day, remember.. My sweet prince, you are the one My sweet prince you are the one Never thought I'd have to retire Never thought I'd have to abstain Never thought all this could back fire Close up the hole in my vain Me and my valuable friend can fix all the pain away So before I end my day remember My sweet prince you are the one My sweet prince you are the one you are the one you are the one you are the one you are the one Never thought I'd get any higher Never thought you'd fuck with my brain Never thought all this could expire Never thought you'd go break the chain Me and you baby, still flush all the pain away So before I end my day remember My sweet prince you are the one My sweet prince you are the one you are the one you are the one you are the one you are the one you are the one you are the one you are the one you are the one My sweet prince My sweet prince |

A friend in needs a friend indeed,
A friend with weed is better, A friend with breasts and all the rest, A friend who's dressed in leather, A friend in needs a friend indeed, A friend who'll tease is better , Our thoughts compressed, Which makes us blessed, And makes for stormy weather, A friend in needs a friend indeed, My Japanese is better, And when she's pressed she will undress, And then she's boxing clever, A friend in needs a friend indeed, A friend who bleeds is better, My friend confessed she passed the test, And we will never sever, Day's dawning, skins crawling [repeat three more times] Pure morning, [repeat this three more times] A friend in needs a friend indeed, A friend who'll tease is better, Our thoughts compressed, Which makes us blessed, And makes for stormy weather, A friend in needs a friend indeed, A friend who bleeds is better, My friend confessed she passed the test, And we will never sever, Day's dawning, skins crawling [repeat three more times] Pure morning,[repeat this three more times] A friend in needs a friend indeed, My Japanese is better, And when she's pressed she will undress, And then she's boxing clever, A friend in needs a friend indeed, A friend with weed is better, A friend with breast and all the rest, A friend who's dressed in leather |

Cue to your face so forsaken
Crushed by the way that you cry Cue to your face so forsaken What a surprise You try to break the mould before you get too old you try to break the mould before you die Cue to your heart that is racing stung by the look in your eye Cue to your heart that is racing What a surprise you try to break the mould before you get too old you try to break the mould before you die Cue your face so forsaken crushed by the way that you cry Cue your face so forsaken Say goodbye [monologue] Sing for your lover Like blood from a stone Sing for your lover Who's waiting at home If you sing when youre high And youre dry as a bone Then you must realise That you're never alone And you'll sing with the dead instead You try and break the mould, before you get too old you try and break the mould, before you die [monologue] |

It takes the pain away
that could not make you stay it's way to broke to fix no glue, no bag of tricks Lay me down, the lie will unfurl lay me down to crawl. Your smile would make me sneeze when we were Siamese Amazing grace in here I'd pay to have you near. Lay me down, the lie will unfurl lay me down to crawl. Don't go and lose your face at some stranger's place and don't forget to breathe and pay before you leave Lay me down, the lie will unfurl lay me down to crawl. Lay me down, the lie will unfurl lay me down to crawl |

Strange infatuation seems to grace the evening tide.
I'll take it by your side. Such imagination seems to help the feeling slide. I'll take it by your side. Instant correlation sucks and breeds a pack of lies. I'll take it by your side. Oversaturation curls the skin and tans the hide. I'll take it by your side. tick - tock [x3] tick - tick - tick - tick - tick - tock I'm unclean, a libertine And every time you vent your spleen, I seem to lose the power of speech, Your slipping slowly from my reach. You grow me like an evergreen, You never see the lonely me at all I... Take the plan, spin it sideways. I... Fall. Without you, I'm Nothing. Without you, I'm nothing. Without you, I'm nothing. Take the plan, spin it sideways. Without you, I'm nothing at all |

If it's a bad day, you try to suffocate.
Another memory... scarred. If it's a bad case, then you accelerate, you're in the getaway... car. You don't care about us... oh oh. You don't care about us... oh oh. You don't care about us... oh oh You don't care about us. If it's a bad case, you're on the rampage. Another memory... scarred. You're at the wrong place, you're on the back page, you're in the getaway... car. You don't care about us... oh oh. You don't care about us... oh oh. You don't care about us... oh oh You don't care about us. It's your age, It's my rage. It's your age, It's my rage. You're too complicated, we should separate it. You're just confiscating, you're exasperating. This degeneration, mental masturbation. Think I'll leave it all behind, save this bleeding heart of mine. It's a matter of trust. It's a matter of trust. It's a matter of trust. It's a matter of trust. Because.. You don't care about us... You don't care about us... You don't care about us... You don't care about us. It's your age, It's my rage. It's your age, It's my rage. |

Sucker love is heaven sent you pucker up our passion's spent
My heart's a tart your body's rent my body's broken yours is bent Carve your name into my arm Instead of stressed I lie here charmed Cuz there's nothing else to do every me and every you Sucker love a box I choose no other box I choose to use Another love I would abuse no circumstances could excuse In the shape of things to come too much poison come undone Cuz there's nothing else to do,Every me and every you. Every me and every you, Every me...he Sucker love is known to swing. prone to cling and waste these things. Pucker up for heaven's sake. there's never been so much at stake. I serve my head up on a plate. It's only comfort, calling late. Cuz there's nothing else to do, like the naked leads the blind. I know I'm selfish, I'm unkind. sucker love I always find, Someone to bruise and leave behind. All alone in space and time. There's nothing here but what here's mine. Something borrowed, something blue. Every me and every you. Every me and every you, Every me...he |

The night is filled with stars that last a lifetime long They all belong to me I would like to see you can come home soon I’ve kept it blue for you How would you like to share How would you like to share it all with me How would you like to share How would you like to share it all with me....... All I have is not all that I need to be I need to see this through Living under people who don’t speak for me Don’t care for me or you How would you like to share How would you like to share it all with me How would you like to share How would you like to share it all with me Loneliness makes a man possesed It drives him back It drives him back to other times When life was not so very kind So long ago, in another world When no-one knew the things I’d seen I don’t think I could do it all again Words confuse as Governments refuse To give us but a small sign That each of us is not alone In times of need nothing is received Because politics is power And power is a daily need I’m coming up for air How would you like to share How would you like to share it all with me How would you like to share How would you like to share it all with me.............. |

High as monkeys Lyrics
Try to put yourself in my place It’s written all over my face I’m closer to God I’ve shed my dirty old skin Grown a brand new feeling I’m closer to God Thinking fast and feeling free And there’s no-one who can touch me Higher than the Universe itself Thanks I don’t need no help I don’t have to see my picture Or my name in a music paper Now I’m close to God I don’t have trouble sleepingI don’t have to go to meetings When I’m close to God Thinking fast and feeling free And there’s no one who can touch me Higher than the Universe itself Thanks I don’t need no help It’s a secret no one keeps it Reveals the places others try to hide It tips the balance from the violence That lies within the bottles on the side Now we’re high as monkeys Now we’ve come so far You and I are simple friends no more Now we’re high as monkeys Opened a few doors Let the sunshine crash into our souls Try to put yourself in my place It’s written all over my face I’m closer to God I’ve shed my dirty old skin Grown a brand new feeling I’m closer to God Thinking fast and feeling free And there’s no-one who can touch me Higher than the Universe itself It’s a secret no one keeps it Reveals the places others try to hide It tips the balance from the violence That lies within the bottles on the side Now we’re high as monkeys Now we’ve come so far You and I are simple friends no more Now we’re high as monkeys Opened a few doors Let the sunshine crash into our souls |

We’ve both been sitting here so long Turn it off there’s nothing on The television will not be revolutionised So come on baby, comb your hair And hope the streets will lead us where Everybody will know just what we both need And we may never be this young again Half my life has been misspent Remember how I used to be and my energy And we may never feel this way again Lets not waste the time we have left Get out while we can and clear our dusty heads Holy man, yes, thanks you’re kind But I haven’t got the time To listen to how bad your god says I have been For I have been what you’ve not been And I have seen what you’ve not seen Come back later when you’re lived a little while And we may never be this young again Half my life has been misspent Remember how I used to be and my energy And we may never feel this way again Lets not waste the time we have left Get out while we can and clear our dusty heads .... |

Heaven’s at the bottom
Reasons for believing in anything Are few and far between these days And I am just a boy who can’t say no Things are so much clearer in a haze And you don’t know, so why not give it a chance Heaven’s at the bottom of this glass Lessons are for learning then throwing away Experience has taught me nothing Think I’ll take a chance and miss you today You can choose real life if you want And you don’t know, so why not give it a chance Heaven’s at the bottom of this glass Blinded by the sunshine give me neon light When I’m far away this is my home A small one on the side to aid my flight Then I can feel my wings begin to grow And you don’t know, so why don’t give it a chance Heaven’s at the bottom of this glass |

The Old Newsstand at Hamilton Square
I was dreaming about Hamilton Square and the newsstand by the station Where we bought the papers every single day I was thinking about the way we treat each other And the way things never stay the same Remembering all these people, all these places A cats gotta learn some day Sad songs are easier to play, I’m afraid We were laughing about that time in New Brighton one summer When you got there and I’d already been And you could’nt believe that I had forgotten that it happened Even forget so it seems Remebering all these people, all these places A cats gotta learn some day Sad songs are easier to play, I’m afraid We were talking about the times we’ve been together And the future seemed so very far away We were coming to terms with the fact that we’re not young anymore But we’re grateful for the times we’ve had Remembering all these people, all these places A cats gotta learn some day sad songs are easier to play, I’m afraid All these people, all these places A cats gotta learn some day sad songs are easier to play, I’m afraid All these people, all these places A cats gotta learn some day sad songs are easier to play, I’m afraid |

Blue room in Archway
Feels so much colder, now you’re away Blue room in Archway Searchin all the places you could be And I can feel your ghost over me Four walls ultra marine Lock myself away Blue room in Archway Searchin all the places you could be And I can feel your ghost over me And it’s hard to define my reasons For hiding away Cursing the day when I leave Can’t you read the sign on my window Why don’t you leave me alone...............

Song from the Blue Room
I've tried so damn hard to convince her But my plea's in vain I still feel the same as I did Could you call her, maybe tell her It Might sound right from you I don't know what else to do Would you try? Now we're older, things are stranger Then they've ever been Now I'm scared of death For the first time All my friends say I look better But my health is gone Smoking far too much All the time Take your future in your own hands Don't rush, take your time Look around and find Your friends Come together, love each other Spit on those who say This is not the way Let them die And what goes up must come down So I can't talk right now And maybe it's easy to believe That once once in your life, once your life You'll find the love that you have always had Realise that before you knew nothing at all |

I was never faithful
And I was never one to trust Borderlining schizo And guaranteed to cause a fuss I was never loyal Except to my own pleasure zone I'm forever black-eyed A product of a broken home I was never faithful And I was never one to trust Borderline bipolar Forever biting on your nuts I was never grateful That's why I spend my days alone I'm forever black-eyed A product of a broken home (Broken home) Black-eyed (repeat) I was never faithful And I was never one to trust Borderlining schizo And guaranteed to cause a fuss I was never loyal Except to my own pleasure zone I'm forever black-eyed A product of a broken home (Broken home) Black-eyed (repeat) |

I wrote this novel just for you
It sounds pretentious but it's true I wrote this novel just for you That's why it's vulgar That's why it's blue And I say, thank you And I say, thank you I wrote this novel just for Mom For all the mommy things she's done For all the times she showed me wrong For all the time she sang god's song And I say thank you Mom Hello Mom Thank you Mom Hi Mom I read a book about Uncle Tom Where a whitey bastard made a bomb But now Ebonics rule our song Those motherfuckers got it wrong And I ask Who is uncle Tom? Who is uncle Tom? Who is uncle Tom? You are I read a book about the self Said I should get expensive help Go fix my head Create some wealth Put my neurosis on the shelf But I don't care for myself I don't care for myself I don't care for myself I don't care I wrote this novel just for you I'm so pretentious, yes it's true I wrote this novel just for you Just for you Just for you |

You're the one who's always choking Trojan
You're the one who's always bruised and broken Sleep may be the enemy But so's another line It's a remedy You should take more time You're the one who's always choking trojan You're the one who's showers always golden Spunk & bestiality well it's an Assisi lie It's ahead of me You should close your fly I understand the fascination The dream that comes alive at night But if you don't change your situation Then you'll die, you'll die, don't die, don't die Please don't die You're the one who's always choking trojan You're the one who's always bruised and broken Drunk on immorality Valium and cherry wine Coke and ecstasy You're gonna blow your mind I understand the fascination I've even been there once or twice or more But if you don't change your situation Then you'll die, you'll die, don't die, don't die Please don't die (x4) |

Days before you came
Freezing cold and empty Towns that change their name And a horn of plenty Days before you came Counting breaths inside me Even crack cocaine Couldn't start to hide me Won't you join me now Baby's looking torn and frayed Join the masquerade Join the masquerade Won't you join me now Baby's looking to get laid Join the masquerade Join the masquerade Days before you came It always seemed enticing to be naked and profane there is no denying Days before you came Thunderbolts and lightning Each day a brand new vein Each tourniquet colliding Didn't what you anyway (x4) Won't you join me now Baby's looking torn and frayed Join the masquerade Join the masquerade Won't you join me now Baby's looking to get laid Join the masquerade Join the masquerade Days before you came (repeat) Didn't what you anyway (x4) |

I was hanging from a tree
Unaccustomed to such violence Jesus looking down on me I'm prepared for one big silence How'd I ever end up here Must be through some lack of kindness And it seemed to dawn on me Haemoglobin is the key Haemoglobin is the key To a healthy heart beat Haemoglobin is the key To a healthy heart beat At the time they cut me free I was brimming with defiance Doctors looking down on me Breaking every law of science How'd I ever end up here? A latent strain of color blindness Then it seemed to dawn on me Haemoglobin is the key Haemoglobin is the key To a healthy heart beat (x4) Now my feet don't touch the ground Now my feet don't touch the ground Now my feet don't touch the ground Now my feet don't touch the ground As they drag me to my feet I was filled with incoherence Theories of conspiracy The whole world wants my disappearance I'll go fighting nail and teeth You've never seen such perseverance Gonna make you scared of me Cause haemoglobin is the key Haemoglobin is the key To a healthy heart beat (x4) Now my feet don't touch the ground (x8) |

I'm careful not to fall
I have to climb your wall 'Cause you're the one Who makes me feel much taller than you are I'm just a peeping tom On my own for far too long Problems with the booze Nothing left to lose I'm weightless...I'm bare I'm faithless... I'm scared The face that fills the hole That stole my broken soul The one that makes me seem to feel much taller than you are I'm just a peeping tom On my own for far too long Troubles with the gear Nothing left to fear I'm weightless... I'm bare I'm faithless... I'm scared I'm weightless... I'm bare I'm faithless... I'm scared With every bet I lost And every trick I tossed You're still the one who makes me feel much taller than you are I'm just a peeping tom On my own for far too long Problems with the booze Nothing left to lose I'm weightless... I'm bare I'm faithless... I'm scared I'm weightless... I'm bare I'm faithless... I'm scared I'm weightless...I'm bare I'm faithless... I'm scared I'm scared I'm scared I'm scared I'm scared |

I kneel before her, beneath this frozen sky.
Beneath her shoulder, beneath her evil eye. She towers over this male who is a fly. My sci-fi lullaby I kneel before her, beneath this frozen sky. I beg below her, my limbs are paralysed. She beats me harder than any kind of guy. My sci-fi lullaby |
