She likes to rise early in the morning
She does her best to blow the cobwebs away And if it's still light maybe she'll skip breakfast And hope that someone can throw a little stardust her way, yeah Crossing the room the day after the night before nightmare Pink blue eyes drink in the aftermath The world's her oyster anything she chooses This little girl doesn't know where her shoes is, yeah Sixteen sweet Chablis sham kisses Seventeen nothing's whispered in her ear Eighteen attempts on her best pair of knickers 1999 was a hell of a year She likes to rise early in the morning She does her best to blow the cobwebs away And if it's still light maybe she'll skip breakfast And hope that someone can throw a little stardust her way, yeah That must have been a night to remember Shame she forgot |

How would you feel if I was to kneel right down
At your feet Right now? It's the way it's going to be From now until forever Let's have less of getting clever with me Who would you blame for blowing the flame right out? Is it me? There is no doubt I can do what I want to do From now until forever Let's have less of getting clever with me You're taking your time And my time as well La-la-la-living a lie, I guess that time will tell You're making excuses For the things you've never done Walking in circles Blinded by the sun Blinded by the sun Who would you blame for blowing the flame right out? Is it me? There is no doubt I can do what I want to do From now until forever Let's have less of getting clever with me You're taking your time And my time as well La-la-la-living a lie, I guess that time will tell You're making excuses For the things you've never done Walking in circles Blinded by the sun Blinded by the sun I don't mean to sound unkind to you You'll just have to go and find Something else to do And don't me ask me what went wrong The list goes on and on And on And on The list goes on and on And on And on The list goes on and on |

Happiness is egg-shaped
And love's a circle with no end It's only four o'clock in the morning And you're still driving me around the bend I'll tell you something, I'll tell you true I've got a letter to send to you It's twenty feet tall and it's sprayed on a wall I'm gonna post it from a fifth floor window Yeah, yeah, crash it right down on your car I don't know maybe then that'll teach you Not to kiss the sky too hard I'll tell you something, I'll tell you true I've got a letter to send to you You're too busy dreaming, so what am I going to do? Got to get you right off of my back 'Cause you're no fun girl My whole world's turning black 'Cause you're no fun girl I know there's two sides to every story You can keep your kiss of death 'Cause I choose glory, yeah Happiness is egg-shaped And love's a circle with no end It's only four o'clock in the morning And you're still driving me around the bend I'll tell you something, I'll tell you true Got a letter to send to you You're too busy dreaming, so what am I going to do? Got to get you right off of my back 'Cause you're no fun girl My whole world's turning black 'Cause you're no fun girl I know there's two sides to every story You can keep your kiss of death 'Cause I choose glory, yeah |

I know the wind and the rain and the lightning
And the thunder's filled my brain Have I changed ? I'm asking you All I know is the sun and it's shining Way above my cloud so high it can't be found We all look around For the times we left behind Oh well never mind, I'll take you there tomorrow And I'm sorry if I seem to always vent my spleen It's not the path I choose to follow So hello And I hope you're still my friend I think I'm on the mend And you know I don't mean to offend I wish we all could fly All I know is the sun and it's shining Way above my cloud So high it can't be found |

Did you think that you had it all worked out
But then they changed their minds? You're left with the feeling That you've been left out Without a thought for who you left behind Well there's a tried and tested potion that I know Go out and get loaded go and give it a go I want you to know, yeah I want you to know Were all of your cards marked in advance As they threw them on the table? There's no such thing as a second chance Look at Auntie George and Uncle Mabel Well there's a tried and tested potion that they know Sat down with arms folded they don't wanna know So di you think that you had it all worked out But then they changed their minds? You're left with the feeling that you've been left out Without a thought for who you left behind Well there's a tried and tested notion you should know Now that you're feeling loaded you've got nowhere to go I want you to know... Yeah I want you to know |

We lived in a dogfish egg case
You could barely call it home Sorry little lot no roof on top But the fish left us alone Try a little more said the girl next Door it's time to roam Mad Lizzy Crumbs blind cobblers Thumbs were a sight to behold She was a rum old slapper and we always Tried to get her pants off when she phoned Left her cap by the sink it's not what you think Oh take me home Now we know where we're going baby We can lay back and enjoy the ride Take in the sights and drown in our senses Love is the law so take me deep inside Strap on Sally chased us down the alley We feared for our behinds Oasis was a shop with shoes so hot They were sure to blow your mind Running so fast I can taste the past Oh take me home Now we know where we're going baby We can lay back and enjoy the ride Take in the sights and drown in our senses Love is the law so take me deep inside These waters run deep it's clear my little one Blue velvet star sky not a sound The light in your eyes the smile on your ruby lips Tells me my lost soul is found Now we know where we're going baby We can lay back and enjoy the ride Take in the sights and drown in our senses Love is the law so take me deep inside |

Did I step down from a spaceship
That was orbiting your earth? Shining like a star above You way down in the dirt Won't you take me to your leader, Won't you show me round the sights? I don't think I've landed here before But then again I might Because your face looks so familiar But your eyes have lost their shine I can take you round the universe In a hot wired police car We can ram-raid Mars and Jupiter And drive right through a star There's one thing you can do for me Hear me now my friend Tell me, tell me, tell me why All good things must come to an end? Did I crash land in your conscience? Did I rain on your parade? Am I your alien abduction nightmare? Won't you be my slave? Is there anybody in there? Hey there earthling get the phone Your virtual reality's a house it's not a home Well a truth as strange as fiction is Right there in your eyes |

He's falling down a staircase
he don't know just how to stop He's forty flights from bottom and sixty from the top He's a man on a mission as brave as he's sane A lonely life's ambition got a sieve for a brain You won't miss your water 'til your well runs dry You can't taste the truth when you're drinking a lie It's a long hard road but we've got to make it through So tell me, tell me, tell me what in the world are we gonna do ? So don't dig yourself any deeper The only color that I see is red My life will be so much sweeter When I'm standing, tall on your head And when you reach the bottom when you hit my killing floor I'll be there to greet you and show you to the door It's a bright sunny day, not a cloud in the sky So say your prayers one last time Cause today's the day you die |
