And so we ride on
The ballad of nice and easy
Young and carefree
We're coming along
The ballad of nice and easy
Young and carefree
Two of these kids grew up on the same street
And though some folks blow it, there's no smoke in their eyes
They're tying their dreams with doubled up laces
Falling, free falling, tangled up 'til they die
And so we ride on
The ballad of nice and easy
Young and carefree
We're coming along
The ballad of nice and easy
Young and carefree
'Cause everyone knows they'll get their hands dirty
Ripping at seams and smoking hot knives
But sooner or later there's an end to this candle
We'll burn it at both ends and switch on the light
So we ride on
The ballad of nice and easy
Young and carefree
We're coming along
The ballad of nice and easy
Young and carefree
And so we ride on
The ballad of nice and easy
Young and carefree
We're coming along
The ballad of nice and easy

Love me for money or love me for gain
Love me for beauty or love me from shame
Somebody told me it's all just the same
It's all the same
I want to share in your closet affair
Sun in your hair ain't the point of this affair
Yet somebody told me it's going nowhere
It's going nowhere
ZYXWVUTSRQPONMLKJIHGFEDCBA
All the words inside my tiny heart
Are falling apart, falling apart today
Love me for money or love me for gain
Love me for beauty or love me from shame
Somebody told me that it's all the same
It's all the same
I want to share in your closet affair
The sun in your hair ain't the point of this affair
Yet somebody told me it's going nowhere
It's going nowhere
ZYXWVUTSRQPONMLKJIHGFEDCBA
All the words inside my tiny heart
Are falling apart, falling apart today
All the words inside my tiny heart
Are falling apart, falling apart today

*'around' to 'along'*
I am free to run, I walk slowly along
I'm everyone, walking slowly along
I walk slowly along
And I've been walking far too long
Drag my feet like everyone
Always wanted to run away but walk slowly along
I feel so tired
Wanna sit here for a while,
I can see it in your smile
Come sit here, let's hold for a while
I've been walking far too long
Drag my feet like everyone
Always wanted to run away but walk slowly along
I walk slowly along
I walk slowly along
I'm free to run
I'm free to run
I'm free to run
I'm free to run
I'm free to run
I'm free to run

Wake up butterfly
The sun's fallen down
The clouds are rollin' over
And we still got many miles to go
From winter days come starless nights
The constellations frown
And when the Heavens start to open
Even monkeys gonna need a coat
And the masterpiece slipped through my hand
Stole a car and drove to a foreign land
The man with the camera said
He'd seen it all before, uh huh
And Opus 49's to blame
From moon illusion Buena Vista in flames
The man with the camera said
Nice try butterfly
Wake up butterfly
The sun's fallen down
The wind is blowin' backwards
And it's openin' the eye of the storm
The spiders circuit
Spinnin' out on the ground
They're wishin' they were younger
There's a little bit of that in us all
Down, take it down
Take it down
There's a little bit of that in us all
Yeah, come on and bring it around
Bring me round
There's a little bit of that in us all
The masterpiece slipped through my hand
Stole a car and drove to a foreign land
The man with the camera said
He'd seen it all before, uh huh
And Opus 49's to blame
From moon illusion Buena Vista in flames
The man with the camera said

From the bed to the car, let us stick to you now
And then move on, move on
Out of school, into home, let us swallow you whole
Or just hold on, hold on
We were close army dub not as quick as you run
You run, you run, you run
Brand new shirt, knackered shoes, coffee made, office blues
And then run on, run on
Well, who's gonna take it like this? No way
You are, you are, you are, you are, you are
Who's gonna take it like this? No way
You are, you are, you are, you are, you are
The one-armed man
The one-armed man
The one-armed man
The one-armed man
The one-armed man
The one-armed man
Who's gonna take it like this? No way
Who's gonna take it like this? No way
From the bed in the car, let us shower your heart
And then move on, move on
It's the one fatal flaw, let us swallow you all
You all, you all, you all
We were close army dub not as quick as you run
You run, you run, you run
Who's gonna take it like this? No way
Who's gonna take it like this? No way
I said, you are, you are, you are, you are, you are
Who's gonna take it like this? No way
I said, you are, you are, you are, you are, you are
Who's gonna take it like this? No way
I said, you are, you are, you are, you are, you are

I was always told that you had to have the balls to breakdown
Now I'm older I'm not too sure
I was once told that you had to have a high to lowdown
An expert told me back in the war
Broken hearted surgery never works
So eat your words or hide them in the dirt
Raise up the anchor baby, why do we have to get way down?
Way down
Raise up the anchor baby, why do we have to get way down?
I was always told that you had to have the balls to breakdown
Now I'm older I'm not too sure
I was once told that you had to have a high to lowdown
An expert told me back in the war
Broken hearted surgery never works
So eat your words or hide them in the dirt
Raise up the anchor baby, why do we have to get way down?
Way down
Raise up the anchor baby, why do we have to get way down?
'Cause I don't need nobody to know me
I don't want nobody to know
I don't see nobody to show me
¡¡

It's getting better all the time
I used to get mad at my school
The teachers who taught me weren't cool
Holding me down
Turning me round
Filling me up with your rules.
I've got to admit it's getting better,
It's getting better all the time
I've got to admit it's getting better,
It's getting better since you've been mine.
Me used to be angry young man
Me hiding me head in the sand
You gave me the word
I finally heard
I'm doing the best that I can
I admit it's getting better,
It's getting better all the time
I've got to admit it's getting better,
It's getting better since you've been mine.
Getting so much better all the time
It' getting better all the time, Better Better, Better
It' getting better all the time, Better Better, Better
I used to be cruel to my woman I beat her and
kept her apart from the things that she loved
Man, i was mean, but I'm changing my scene and I'm doing the best that I can.
I admit it's getting better,
It's getting better all the time
I've got to admit it's getting better,
It's getting better since you've been mine.
Getting so much better all the time

I love this island but this island's killing me
Sitting here in silence, man I don't get no peace
The waves upon my shore take me away piece by piece
Gonna leave everything I know gonna head out towards the sea
Jump off this island gonna head out towards the sea
I love this city man but this city's killing me
Sitting here in all this noise man I don't get no peace
The cars below my street take me away piece by piece
Gonna leave everything I know gonna head out towards the sea
Gonna leave this city man, gonna head out towards the sea
Get miles away, get miles away, get miles away
Get miles
I love this planet but this planet's killin' me
Sitting here in all this grass man I don't get no weed
The sweat comin' from my pores take me away piece by piece
Gonna leave everything I know gonna head to the galaxy
Gonna leave this planet man, gonna head to the galaxy
Get miles away, get miles away, get miles away, get miles away, get miles away,
get miles away, get miles away
Get miles

What are you on?
Think you're the businessman
What are you on?
The rhythm is wrong
Someone's out of tune
And you call this a song?
Well, you're havin' me on
I don't believe, you lie
You're havin' me on

When's it going to kick in?
And you call this a song?

What planet you on?
Gotta stop your carryin' on

Who's gonna chicken out first?
You're gonna chicken out first
We're all alone

I cannot hear you
There's too much goin' on
Oh, I said it all wrong

A lost souls, you and I, my dear
Whiskey bottle and a 45, my dear

Been wasting time, I lost my money, found someone to call me honey

cruelty
In the bubblegum years

Nightfall follows the day

A thousand times dumbfounded lies
In tidy lines let blood flood the town
Thoughts that dwell on how we fell

Well, how do you do?
Do you like the look of me and you together?
So take me out
Spill a little drink on your lap and
She said to me so deep inside
Well, I'm thinkin' that I'm an extra special guy
Takin' it all with an extra pinch of salt

Would you like me to?

Red old eyes, now where you from
You catch me every day
Colours hide not even song
It's all been washed away
Sun stop going down
Come out again
Stop fading out
Awake again
Sun stop going down
Stop going down
Blues old face, you finally come around
And talking in your sleep
Buried secrets and fiery showdowns
Lost days inbetween
It's all the same
Let it go before it gets too late
Don't play our game
Sun stop going down
Come out again
Stop fading out
Awake again
Sun stop going down
Stop going down
Sun is going down
Come out again
Don't feel so proud
Get straight again
Sun stop going down
Stop going down
It's all the same
Let it go before it gets too late
Don't play our game

Boo Hoo, Boo Hoo
Given all these troubles on my mind,
The tears won't come out.
I've been shaking, shaking in my boots
Every time I hear my telephone ring
It can't possibly be you,
You never call,
Not since my little accident.
I didn't mean to cause any trouble
I didn't know we were so serious
Yeah, I didn't mean to burst our bubble
It can only float for so long
Now I realise, I realise they were wrong,
'cos what happens in Vegas,
Don't take very long,
To travel accross continents,
And onwards overseas,
Onto our little island,
To our city, our home,
I didn't mean to cause any trouble
I didn't know we were so serious
Yeah, I didn't mean to burst our bubble
It could only float for so long
Sometimes I wish, I could cry on demand
Boo Hoo, Boo Hoo
Given all these troubles on my mind,
The tears won't come out.

Come in and get yourself something to drink
And tell me something I don't know about you
I'll tell you something 'bout me
Does it feel right?
Like penetrating insight
Or blinded by the cuckoo with the hiccups
Lets drink it to the side

Once upon a time, not too long ago, we took a day out in Manchester
We all fall down, there's not enough hours in our day
Played a bit of football, fell in to the union, barged our way to the toilet
With the Kung Fu king, there's not enough hours in our day
I remember seeing someone dressed in a suit looking like a lunatic
And we all fall down, there's not enough hours in our trip
*Well, academy cartwheel's breakin' your hands
We got lovely posters for sale
And we all fall down, there's not enough hours in our day
We like lovin yeah, and the wine we share
We like lovin yeah, and the wine we share
Finally made our way back to the train, rolling in to Sheffield tonight
And we all fall down, there's not enough hours in our life
So try and guess my weight and wait at the station
We're whippin Picadilly tonight
And it all falls down, there not enough hours in our life
We like lovin yeah, and the wine we share
We like lovin yeah, and the wine we share

Mr. Jones, you've been wasted before
Rest your head on this dirty old floor
And everybody's mind turned to what they knew before
And everybody's mind turned off
¡¡

I love my life on Mars
It has a side of perfect slumber
Just like a lucky charm
Keeps the nights from mornings after
And though I find it hard
I might say with a gay abandon
Girl, we got it all
A room with a view of the rings of Saturn
Girl, we got it all
Come spend your life on Mars
If you taste it, la la la, don't waste it, la la la
If you have the thing, you've always desired
Don't break it, la la la
If you crave her, la la la, don't waster her, la la la
If you have the one, you've always desired
Don't break her, la la la
I said you waste her, you waster
My mind may go astray
But that don't mean that you should follow
This road to Mandalay
Where you might drown when the water's shallow
And though you'll find it hard
You might add with a gay abandon
Now, girl, we got it all
On Santa Monica Boulevard
Girl, we got it all
Come hang on the Boulevard
If you taste it, la la la, don't waste it, la la la
If you have the one, you've always desired
Don't break it, la la la
If you crave her, la la la, enslave her, la la la
If you have the one, you've always desired
Don't break her, la la la
I said you waste her, you waster
If you taste it, la la la, don't waste it, la la la
If you find the thing, you've always admired
Don't break it, la la la
If you crave her, la la la, enslave her, la la la
If you find the one, you've always desired
Don't break her, la la la
I said you waste her, you waster
(La la la, la la la, la la la, la la la)
You waster, you waster

I've been touched now, I don't believe it
Movin' much closer now, here's my touch
Now please receive it
Let's do some more touchin' up
Let's do some more touchin' up
Well, he got sings to sing you
Made me feel good when the others didn't
And he got everything now
Made me come back when the others didn't
Uh huh, ooh ooh
Know your mind, there's something quite familiar in your eyes
Know your mind, there's something quite familiar
Something quite familiar
Coming around the bend, coming around the bend
Stay out on your own
Made me feel good when the others didn't
Stay out on your own
Made me come back when the others didn't
Stay out on your own
Made me feel good when the others didn't
Stay out on your own
Made me come back when the others didn't
Uh huh, uh huh, uh huh, ooh ooh

We came, we came, we came again
To stem the tide and point the blame
Came back for more
Came back to see what you had in store
Everyone join the line, everyone
So you wanna spin the world around?
So you wanna spin the world around?
And anybody else
So you wanna make catastrophe?
Why don't ya sail right over to me
I got some time
The same, the same, the same again
To steal the time and haunt the graves
Just because it's there
Don't mean you see it anyway
Maybe it's a trick of the light
Maybe.....
Yeah... So you wanna spin the world around?
So you wanna spin the world around?
And anybody else
So you wanna make catastrophe?
Why don't ya sail right over to me
I got some time
So you say we haven't turned around?
So you say we haven't turned around?
Just everybody else
¡¡

I've been caught in a trap I set for myself
I don't want to be here when you could be somewhere else
So why'd I sit on my hands like a book on a shelf
Where nothing but dust is falling?
Everyone 'round here lives in silence
If I had something to say I'd say what I mean
How'd you lose all your words? I swear it's obscene, I curse
How'd you look at yourself as the mirror turns green?
Yeah, only the fools ignore us
Everyone 'round here lives in silence
I could wait all my life for someone to think
I can't open your eyes but I can make you blink at me
So please don't try to be nice, don't need your advice
Please leave me to die of boredom
Everyone 'round here lives in silence
Silence
(They wait for the end)
Silence
(They bow and they bend)
Silence
(Their homes they defend)

There's a dog in the stew
As gratan as blues
Some creaky old muse
Whose dice are fallin
Nuweiba sand flew
So stay out of view
And tear out a pew
As Cairo Callin away
I'm not as prego as you
Caprese eel brew
As play out as twos
And losin my cruiser
Some mustard to chew
As a lebanese druse
So easy to bruise
With pedros drawing
One hit and we're down
We're callin in the hounds
Let's get out of this down
But one hit and we're down....
....I'm not as dajon as you
It's a skeleton view
Is a rotten old dude
For assibyn hues
We paintin lifestyles
With weird tattoos
As korsican tombs
I'm not as dajon as you
With wayward flugels
Blowin into town
One hit and we're down
Courtin in the hounds
One hit and we're down....
....I'm not as dajon as you
..I'm not as dajon as you
Put all the west side on the east side
Put all the east side on the west side
¡¡

Well hey, how's tricks man
Think I seen you before
Blank blank do you
You looked a lot older
You been workin' out
What's wrong with that
Well he came back and
Came marching in
Shot, shot to the
He found a good reason
Do it for the money
What's wrong with that
Control your bad side in to peril
We come down
Hold the line
You're so fine
Dead wrong
So please stop talking
Start puckering up
My ears are blank
It's the special occasions
You do it for the money
Can't go wrong with that
Explode or capsize
Provide my poet
If you're down
Tow the line
You're so fine

[repeated wah-wah-wackity-wahs fading in]
BA-BA BA-BA-BA-BA BA BA BA BA BA-BA

Since I was a child
I was chased like a demon out of town
Born the second child
Of a leg, leg, legless hound
And I am gonna follow you around
And I am gonna follow you around
Yeah, I
I'm eagerly adopted
By the darkest atmosphere
Playin' in the playground
With [Incomprehensible] others, yeah
And I am gonna follow you around
And I am gonna follow you around
Yeah, I
And I am gonna follow you around
And I am gonna follow you around
And I am gonna follow you around
And I am gonna follow you around

Heaven knows, Lord, I've been crying
Heaven knows, Lord, I've been longing for an answer

intro
You can write your tunes with rhythm and blues as your alibi
You can sell your soul and lay the blame on the passers-by
You shake your body on the TV screen
It seems to me, you'd try anything twice
And swing it out and use it as your aphrodisiac
You can give it to me, to me
Plain to see that I'll give it you back
You let it flow, let it go, there's nothing to it
Anyone can try anything twice, try anything twice
Chasing after stories that have already been told
Cannot look old Son House in the eyes
I know where you carry such a fragile load
But I've got yours, and you've got mine
It's a rhythm and blues alibi
instrumental
La la la la la la la la la la laaa..
You can take a trip through your juke joint smoke-filled paradise
You can give it your all, 'cause you are walking a fine, fine line, la
You shake your booty on the TV screen
Seems to me, you'd try anything twice
You'd try anything twice
Well let me hear you now..
Chasing after stories that have already been told,
Couldn't I look old sunhouse in the eyes,
I know where you carry such a fragile load,
And I've got yours, you've got mine
It's a rhythm and blues alibi
La la la la la etc.
fade out

Bust up
No trust
Getting along
Best get clean, get on
She's gone, I'm gone
Ruff stuff
Something's wrong
Best get clean, get on
I'm spending all her money
On the best that I can buy
So I'm locked up
Trussed up
Shackles on
Best get clean for her
Jittery soup
Stuffed turkey
Cold cop
Best get clean for her
I'm hot and feeling funny
I'm sweating to get dry
Darling
(Come back!)
I've given up fags and drugs now baby
Darling
(Come back!)
I've had enough of the ruff stuff, baby
Darling
(Come back!)
Been hangin' round in smack bogs, baby
Darling
(Come back!)
I've given up fags and drugs now baby
Leave your fever, breather
Get off
Get off
Get on
Feeling weak
Downbeat
Two weeks of two
Need help for her
I'm sick with paranoia
It's the most that I can do
Hot meal
Warm bath
On my feet
Got it beat for you
Take a look
Early nights
Good books
Cook and clean for you
So go and call your mother
'Cause she's been using too
Darling
(Come back!)
I've given up fags and drugs now baby
Darling
(Come back!)
I've had enough of the ruff stuff, baby
Darling
(Come back!)
Been hangin' round in smack bogs, baby
Darling
(Come back!)

Rosemary's the kind of girl
Don't need no reason
She's the kind
That just won't settle down
Clothes are out of season
She'll be done for treason
She'll be hanging
From a tree upside down
Fever, fever
Where you trying to run?
Fever, diva
Rosemary's not done
Well, Rosemary's the kind of girl
Tired of her beauty
She has taken
All her mirrors down
So you best believe her
The girl will give you fever
She's the kind to heat you up
And cool you down
Fever, fever
Where you trying to run?
Fever, diva
Rosemary, she's not done

Keep on kickin' shit
Keep runnin' off the rails
Keep on pickin' the dirt
From 'neath your fingernails
'Cause I'm not worried
About your state of mind
'Cause you're not the revolutionary kind
Keep on in the jungle
With your techno-cality
Keep on lapping up
Your chemical duty-free
'Cause I'm not worried
About your state of mind
'Cause you're not the revolutionary kind
Keep on twistin', turnin'
Staring down the sun
Keep on dancin', dancin'
Dance with everyone
You're not the revolutionary kind
You're not the revolutionary kind
You're not the revolutionary kind

I've been lost and now found my way
Take me down and save, show me the way
Take me places that I want to stay
Here's to today, here's to today
I've been knocked but now I'm on my feet
Call or light up whenever I get in this deep
Take me places that I know from sleep
Let me sleep, let me sleep
Head out and fade out
Keep on the light on, turn it up
Head out and fall down now
Keep the light on and turn it up
I don't, cannot live with things you say
Guys don't want you to let it go anyway
Wake me tenderly and leave me to lay
Let me sleep, let me sleep
Head out and fade out
Keep the light on, turn it up
Head out and fall down now
Keep the light on and turn it up
Here's to today
Here's to today
Here's to today

Chinese symbols on his robe
Never gonna match up with that smile
He's wearing mostly black and gold
It's been twelve days
The longest for a while
He's been fortunate
He can't tell a lie
Redheads, blondes, brunettes
They all fall for his lines
He's been king now for so long
His days are numbered
Times have changed, so move along
The dream is over
Draped across Egyptian linen
Even Cleopatra casts an eye
A gossamer see-through zipped up tracksuit
Champagne bottle, ten o'clock on fire
He's been fortunate
He cannot deny
Jacuzzi baronet
With soap suds in his eyes
He's been king now for so long
His days are numbered
Times have changed, so move along
The dream is over
He's been king now for so long
His days are numbered
Times have changed, so move along
The dream is over
We've been waiting for so long
We think it's over

Good bye Lauren Lee, my precious Lauren Lee has gone
Gone so far away, now won't be back today or tomorrow
Good bye Lauren Lee, my precious Lauren Lee has gone out
But is he away with the fairies, is he away with me?
Take him away, it's free, I play anywhere I choose
Did he get into the sequel, how is Leno these days?
Take it away, 'cause I don't care whether we win or lose
Yeah, whether we win or lose
All my chips are down, my precious chips are almost gone
Find a better caller, dealer man without a son
Put it all on one, I feel like number one is on now
But is he away with the fairies, is he away with me?
Take him away, it's free, I play anywhere I choose
Did he get into the sequel, how is Leno these days?
Take it away, 'cause I don't care whether we win or lose
Yeah, whether we win or lose
Good bye Lauren Lee, my precious Lauren Lee has gone out
Yeah, whether we win or lose, whether we win or lose
Yeah, whether we win or lose
Is he away with the fairies, is he away with me?
Take him away, it's free, I play anywhere I choose
Did he get into the sequel, how is Leno these days?
Take it away, 'cause I don't care whether we win or lose

The first words that came could've been more inspired
You must be hungry or tired or frozen
So put up your feet, throw some coal on the fire
And weave us a tale of delight
So we sit in our gun and we wait for our turn
We'll be waiting all of the night
So we sit in our gun and we wait for our turn
We'll be waiting all of our lives
We're all to blame
We hide away
Let's take the sand from this bottomless pit
It's hell to pay
So run away
Destroy on command all who came and then quit
It's been carefully planned by the ones you won't see
Send out the monkeys, they come out of the bushes
To piss in the punch and then smash up the decks
It's your party, we're all obliged
So we sit in our gun and we wait for our turn
I think you hurt him, there's blood on the floor
So we sit in our gun, can I ask what you're on?
If you made it there's hope for us all
We're all to blame
We hide away
Let's take the sand from this bottomless pit
There's hell to pay
So run away
Destroy on command all who came and then quit
You're all the same
So hide away
Let's steal the sand from this bottomless pit

*Love is better than a warm trombone, when blown, softly by a two tone, brother
*Down on luck by chance, caress her head off at the boogaloo trance
With his hands in his pocket he could not lie
With his hands in his pocket he began to cry
With his hands in his pocket he lowered his eye
*He said Miss I guess I ought to apologise, I've been fallin, I'm falling down
The river of your lovelorn souls is getting deeper than the deepest dish washing
bowl
*Now brother get the dirt off your hands, it's getting darker than a
sun-chaser's the sun tan
With his hands in his pockethe could not lie
With his hands in his pockethe began to cry
With his hands in his pockethe lowered his eyes
*He said Miss, I guess I ought to apologise, I've been fallin, I'm falling
down
With his hands in his pockethe began to cry
With his hands in his pockethe could not lie
With his hands in his pockethe lowered his eyes
