die Katze lief in denSchnee
und als sie wieder heraus kam
da hatt' sie weiße Höschen an
o jemine o jemine o jemine o je
die Katze lief zur Höh
sie leckt ihr kaltes Pfötchen rein
und putzt sich auch die Höselein
und ging nicht mehr

Chunky, ?, Brolic, Please be careful with my chains
Stop palyin games, It costs too much
The jewelry man said it might attract feds
The few men that wanted shit was found dead
See it's not a game, The power I possess is real
Wait up, Money caked up, Tape ducts and kill
Rock my gold bow, Polo robes, Scrooge McDuck shit
Uncle Ghost will download gold, Whether sixth floor Brooklyn house
Slid through quietly then took the house
Spazed out on the faggot then they moved me out
Hurry check the box office my new movie's out
I'm not feelin broke niggas that be frontin for nothin
Stuntin, Wanna rock Playboy I keep it comin
Word to Granny I'm quick to buck fifty somethin
I'll be right up on that ass like you sixty somethin
Come on

Goldfish with gold chains hangin from they necks, They swim slow
Watch me poke Vics, Sit slick, Throw Vicks on it

My shit better, courtesy of myself, thanks to me

Sixteen's is much more than a rap, this is pure facts
You see what's really good when you catch him by himself
Dolly, I leave a fool holy like Jesus Christ
It's a miracle he still living
And you could say a whole life time of prayer
But you never in this lifetime player be the mayor of the murder murder
Killer killer, bloody rap songs out the slums in the squala
Made a few dollars, now they say I'm too rich
I give some to you, now a nigga cool
Ha, I ain't got two cents for you bums
Now watch as I burn rubber in the six-huns
CL made my gun ring a bell
Where the shots came from they never can tell
They just here to fire and everybody bails
One nigga on the ground dying in hell
Fo'real!

Dead bodies popping up, niggas getting hit
Others getting beat the fuck out and bashed out
MOP style, they get mashed out
I razor blade you up and cut you bad
You gon' need plastic where your face's at
Boy I'll bullet riddle you up and chop you into parts
Then scatter you all over the East Coast, kiko
You're playing with your life
You play with me you're like a baby running with a knife
You're upset your wife got my CD in the changer
And you rap too and she don't bump your bangers
Your shit wack and then on top
Your life style don't match the shit you pop
This is gon' be simple 'cause you're easy
Like 1 2 3, I do it niggas greasy as...
I had dreams and crazy schemes
Never felt this way before
I had days when I god raged
Never felt like this before
Endless nights that end in flights
Now I feel love
Never. Never. Never more than now
Never. Never. Never more than now
Never more than now
Paralysed by vicious lies
Never felt this way before
Seen hope die and grown men cry
Never felt like this before
Shed lonely tears and heartfelt fears
Now I feel love
Never. Never. Never more than now
Never. Never. Never more than now
A thing of beauty
Lasts forever
Stretches through all time
Every endeavour
No matter how hard
They might try
To build you up
And to bleed you dry
Never lose love. Never
Never lose love. Never
Ever, ever, ever
Never. Never. Never more than now
Politicians preaching - on TV
Saying nothing but - vote for me
Everybody, everywhere
We got a love, got a love
Got a love we gotta share...
One better world
One better world
One better world
Papers feeding - lies each day
Are you believeing - what they say?
Pulpit preachers - selling God
Making big bucks - is that enough?
Everybody, everywhere
We got a love, got a love
Got a love we gotta share...
One better world
One better world
One better, better, better world
Someway - Somehow - Some place - Somewhere
Let the lion lie down with the lamb
Someway - Somehow - Some place - Somewhere
Don't use the colour of his skin to judge the man
Someway - Somehow - Some place - Somewhere
Does it matter if you're gay or if you're straight
Someway - Somehow - Some place - Somewhere
If it does you fill this world with hate
Underneath a flag
Love is just a name
But underneath the moon
We are all the same
Everybody, everywhere
We got a love, got a love
Got a love we gotta share...
One better world
One better world
I could walk away from you
If that's what you wanted
But when you look for something new
You can be so disappointed
It's funny how it used to be
Me for you and you for me
I wish I knew why people change
Suddenly
Will we ever be the same again
Stranger things have happened
Will we ever feel this way again
Whatever will be, will be eternally
We were learning to be human
But it doesn't take a degree
To know that what you're looking for
Is not always what you see
It's funny how it used to be
Me for you and you for me
I guess I'd knew why people change
Suddenly
Will we ever be the same again
Stranger things have happened
Will we ever feel this way again
Whatever will be, will be eternally
Will we ever be the same again
Stranger things have happened
Will we ever feel this way again
Whatever will be, will be eternally
Sha la, sha la la
Sha la, sha la la

See the girl in the cabriolet
I'm gonna make her mine someday
The traffic stops and she steps out
Every man starts to scream and shout
There's a space in the week
It's a date I can keep, oh yeah
Seven day, seven day, seven day
It's a seven day weekend
Seven day, seven day, seven day
It's a seven day weekend
See the girl in the pale peach dress
She's got a body build to caress
Like a one-eyed cat
Outside a seafood store
She's got me begging
More, more, more
I've been saving and saving
And saving my money
To spend it on her
* seven day, seven day, seven day
It's a seven day weekend
Seven day (seven day)
Seven day (seven day) seven day
It's a seven day weekend
Seven day (seven day)
Seven day (seven day) seven day
It's a seven day weekend

Seven day (saturday)
Seven day (every day) seven day
It's a seven day weekend
Seven day (seven day)
Seven day (seven day) seven day
It's a seven day weekend
Seven day (seven day)
Seven day (seven day) seven day
I was tired of letting her
Taking me for what she could get
Smoking me down
Like her last cigarette
See luck's a dime in dozen
In a thousand different places
Every country cousin's
Holding five sweet aces
All of a sudden
Love shines down on me
Kissing you is like the angels kissing heaven
When I roll those dice, I swear I'm rolling sevens
I'll do whatever you want, whatever you say
Everything's going our way
Poets and philosophers
Can say what they like
But they've never been to your place
After the clock strikes midnight
Zooming in on you
Pulled me into focus
All the wild cards
Start turning into jokers
All of a sudden
Love shines down on me
Kissing you is like the angels kissing heaven
When I roll those dice, I swear I'm rolling sevens, sevens
I'll do whatever you want, whatever you say
Everything's going our way, yeah
Kissing you is like the angels kissing heaven
When I roll those dice, I swear I'm rolling sevens
I'll do whatever you want, whatever you say
Everything's going our way, yeah
Rolling sevens, rolling sevens, rolling sevens
Our way, yeah, rolling sevens, rolling sevens, yeah
One, two, three, four, five, six, seven, seven
One, two, three, four, five, six, seven, seven
One, two, three, four, five, six, seven, seven
Elegant faces
Won't you stand aside
I'm only looking for the real ride
Now's not the time
To run away and hide
* I've got no time for fakers
Only the best will do
Looking through my eyes, baby
It's such a spectacular view
Now that these times are changing
Only the best will do
Pale imitations
Will fade away
People are talking
With nothing to say
I wouldn't let anyone
Talk to me that way
(* repeat)
** ain't that peculiar
Neptune's your ruler
Awake from your slumber
Give me your number
How candid the camera
That captures the best of you
Only the best will do
(* repeat)
Only the best will do
(repeat with following)
(** repeat)
I - I would swim the seven seas
I - I would crawl upon my knees
I - Climb mountains high for you
I - Would guarantee your every dream come true
...come true
Oh I - I'm in love with you
Yes it's true
Oh I - I wouldn't cheat on you
Yes it's true
Oh I - I'm in love, I'm in love, I'm in love
With you...
I - I would drink an ocean dry
I - Would pluck the moon out from the sky
I - I would build a palace just for you
I - I could give you... Park Avenue
...Park Avenue
Oh I - I'm in love with you
Yes it's true
Oh I - I wouldn't cheat on you
Yes it's true
Oh I - I'm in love, I'm in love, I'm in love
With you...
I - I could travel back in time
I - I would kill a man to make you mine
I - I would leap the Empire State
I - I'd win a war, just to conquer hate
...conquer hate
Oh I - I'm in love with you
Yes it's true
Oh I - I wouldn't cheat on you
Yes it's true
Oh I - I'm in love, I'm in love, I'm in love
** sitting watching stars exploding
Building blocks that make
This world go round
On some distant planet cluster
Future gazing, no sight or sound
Sitting godlike mother nature
Now immortal, on my own
Light years from home
* light years from home
Light years from home
Crimson shades of evening glimmer
Across the counts of earth below
Shield your love like buried treasure
And all the secrets that you hold
Let them go
And as the daylight
Brings the morning
I reach out for you
Anaesthetic for the heartache
Now I'll never feel alone
Light years from home
(* repeat 2 times)
I have tried
To make it on my own
And I have survived
But surviving is no rival
For your love
* now I know that it's true
There is no way I can't be
Without you
Heaven knows that it's true
I can't live in this world
Without you
Time you'll find
Can change your mind
My eyes once could see
Only want now to believe
And thought we've tried
I think we'd better face it
A love like ours
You know you can't replace it
(* repeat)
Without you
(* repeat)
I wonder if there's one chance
It could be
You can't live in this world
Without me
This heart?s up for sale, yeah, this heart?s on the stand
Mix and match and melt in my mouth
Nothin' ever goes quite as planned
You fly north and I?ll sail south
So redevelop product, redesign this package
Still refuse to reach in your pocket
Everything is temporary written on that sand
Lookin' for the girl that meets supply with demand
Love has no guarantee
(Yes I?m date stamped)
Promise me eternity
(Guess I?ll fade away)
Even with a pedigree
(Yes I?m date stamped)
Love has no guarantee
That heart?s on display, yes, that heart?s off the rails
A ship in the harbor with wind in it?s sails
Chain up love inside the chain-store girl
Chain up love and exchange it
Is monsieur a connoisseur or just short changed?
Off the rack or custom fit it all seems the same
Look but don?t touch in paradise
Don?t let them catch you damagin' the merchandise
Love has no guarantee
(Yes I?m date stamped)
Promise me eternity
(Guess I?ll fade away)
Even with a pedigree
(Yes I?m date stamped)
Love has no guarantee
I get sales talk from sales assistants
When all I want to do girl, is lower your resistance
Everything is temporary, written on that sand
Lookin' for the girl that meets supply with demand
Love has no guarantee
Brings out the woman in me
Even with a pedigree
Love has no guarantee
No chance of subtlety
No promise of eternity
Even with a pedigree
Let me take you to Trafalgar Square
Let me take you there
Every street?s a fashion catwalk, everyone?s debonair
Let me take you to Piccadilly guess it leads somewhere
Tower over centuries, tower over London
Tower up and frankly I?m amazed
What?s done cannot be undone, not here not in London
What?s done can never be erased
So, tower up, it?s those little things
Make life interesting, tower of London
Tower up wasting time
Your?s and mine, tower of London
Let me take you to St.James?s Square
Let me groove you there
Diplomats get target practice in the open air
Psychobillies scream blue murder then they hit Mayfair
Tower over centuries, tower over London
Tower up and frankly I?m amazed
What?s done cannot be undone, not here not in London
What?s done can never be erased
So, tower up, it?s those little things
Make life interesting, tower of London

New York don?t make me laugh
Do you remember when men wore skirts?
(So hip)
In kipper ties like jealous flirts
(So hip)
In calico and in brocade shirts
So hip it hurts
Do you remember when girls wore slacks?
(So hip)
Traffic stops, men get heart attacks
(So hip)
Seems so strange that they took it like that
So hip it hurts
He's so hip, so hip it
She's so hip, so hip it
They're so hip, so hip it hurts
So hip it
Whose the girl with the kin ski eyes?
(So hot)
They kind of face you could idolize
(So what)
The kind of shape that gets advertised
So hip it hurts
Once it was normal for a girl to curtsy
Got to admit even though it hurts me
She'd squeeze informal until it screams for mercy
So hip it hurts
He's so hip, so hip it
She's so hip, so hip it
They're so hip, so hip it hurts
So hip it hurts, so hip it
(So, so, so, so, so, so, so, so)
He's so hip, so hip it
She's so hip, so hip it
They're so hip, so hip it hurts
So hip it hurts, so hip it
He's so hip, so hip it
She's so hip, so hip it
So hip, so hip it hurts
So hip it hurts
So hip it hurts
So hip it hurts
So hip it hurts
Once I needed your love
But that was just one thing left on my mind
Then I needed to feel you near me
You said, "Don't have the time"
The cowboys at the rodeo
The rhine-stones on that romeo
Your theme tune on the radio
Souvenirs that only go to
Show me, show me
Show me that you're mine
Show me, show me
Give me just one sign
Show me, show me
Second that emotion
Show me, show me love
Since we're skimming the surface, darling
Now's time to get in deep
You've opened up the envelope
But there's still one secret you keep
A pirate station or the late night show
A sunken ship with a rich cargo
Buried treasure that the four winds blow
Wind and rain it only goes to
Show me, show me
Show me that you're mine
Show me, show me
Give me just one sign
Show me, show me
Second that emotion
Show me, show me love
Some things are hidden
Some things you'll see
Make me know
Signal to me
Nine out of ten
In every case
She might look pretty
But there's make up on her face
Show me, show me
Show me that you're mine
Show me, show me
Give me just one sign
Show me, show me
Second that emotion
Show me, show me love
And you can be free
And you could be free, free, free
Where are the diamonds?
Where are the curls?
Where are the things that you took from this world?
These are the diamonds
These are the curls
Well you took me home
And you took me back
But deep down inside
The feeling just died and I
Couldn't see why?
From indigo through to royal blue
I travel far but no one will do
Anytime, anyplace
Every shape every face
Brings memories of you
Blue to be blue
To be blue
Ocean blue, ocean blue
Blue to be blue
To be blue
Ocean blue, ocean blue
Fair weather friends might drift away
When summer ends and skies burn gray
So I walk to the ocean
Pilot these shores
Just thinking of you
It's time we kissed the clouds goodbye
From now on end it's strictly blue sky
Come rain and shine
The outlook is still fine
I'm thinking of you
Blue to be blue
To be blue
Ocean blue, ocean blue
Blue to be blue
To be blue
Ocean blue, ocean blue
Blue to be blue
To be blue
Ocean blue, ocean blue
Ocean blue, ocean blue
Ocean blue, ocean blue
Ocean blue, ocean, ocean
Ocean, ocean
Blue to be blue
To be blue
Ocean blue, ocean blue
Blue to be blue
To be blue
Ocean blue, ocean blue
I stand at the head of the queue
There's mutiny's every crew
Wishin' and wonderin' 'bout you
Love's a dangerous language
Survey the damage, see what love has done
Oh, my precious darling, my sacred angel
Look what we've done
Oh, you're scared and frightened
Don't be afraid, yes
We'll take your problem wheel
Drive it slowly to a shallow grave
So in those special moments
That might make you think you were happy then
Moving blue through pink, but you're happy now
And you think you'll sink
The buckle is tied for a white knuckle ride
When the buckle is tied then the judgments denied
Oh, my own she vixen, we're sworn to secrecy
This crime is ours, yeah, so quench your thirst
And when I'm hungry I'll eat my words
So in those special moments
That might make you think you're happy now
Moving blue through pink, you were happy then
But you think you'll sink
The buckle is tied for a white knuckle ride
When the buckle is tied, then the judgments denied
Wherever we go, wherever we hide
Cock a snoot,
Loop the loop,
Hock the hula-hoop,
But now it yo-yo'd back again
Shiver me timbers,
Just jumped ship with a little faith
We could win the championship
Parachute substitute, problem is it's soooo cute
Workless, cashless, hungry and in debt
Outta house, outta home, outta pocket
They persuade you,
That they made you then betrayed you
And they blame you with the power of persuasion
The power of persuasion
The power of persuasion
The power of persuasion
You bought the troll,
You bought the gonk,
You took it home, and put it on a pedestal
We needed a saviour,
But from it's behaviour
Why did it have to be so extra-terrestrial?
Tax deductible. cash corruptible,
Never the less another poolswinner
Penniless dog tooth check,
Cash and carry find a girl,
Settle down and marry
They persuade you,
That they made you
The proclaim,
And they'll maim you with the power of persuasion
The power of persuasion
The power of persuasion
The power of persuasion
I sold the eskimo snow
Build the skyline outta playdo
Persuading you that monochrome is dayglo
Not what you are,
But what you've earned
Where jack-queen-king
Money's concerned
A friend in need is a friend in debt
That kinda friend king money can forget.
May those that are full get struck dumb
When they tell the hungry of the good times
To come,
More money than sense in their defence
And cheaper jokes at our expense
So if your king is money
Then I feel sorry for you
And if you think that it's funny
Then maybe you do...
Maybe you do king money
King money, king money
The midas touch doesn't mean
That much until you're crippled with greed,
Using gold as a crutch or half a man
For half a crown for half a kingdom
For half a town
No geldt-in-my-pelt-jack,
No cash in my shack so tell me the things
That you think I lack
Just what kinda price are you willing to pay
For a holiday from the royal tourniquet
So if your king is money
Then I feel sorry for you
And if you think that it's funny
Then maybe you do...
Maybe you do king money
King money, king money
Standing by the xerox machine
I want to duplicate some money
Build a fortune up in black and white
But I'll need a master copy.
You're gonna give your love to me
Shake an apple off the apple tree
When she moves it's poetry
Come to me now, one, two, three
King ka
King ka
King king money
Plan the perfect double murder
Maybe win the pools when I get some money
Honey, I'll be knee high in consumer
Durables
Hold a candle to a naked flame
Ask the atheist his christian name
Try parachuting from a burning plane
Finding someone else you could blame
If I ever thought you'd be lonely
If I ever thought you'd be there
If I ever fought the alimony
Painted pony
You'd be there
Eskimo heart
Bedouin throat
A butcher trussed up in a camel hair coat
A crowning in the castle
A drowning in the moat
Ocean dried,
Desert afloat
If I ever thought you'd be lonely
If I ever thought you'd be there
If I ever fought the alimony
My one and only
You'd be there
One for the lady,
One for the gent
Signatures in wet cement,
And if you ever ask,
What I meant then I'd never know,
To all of those who had their doubts
Now those doubts... I forgive 'em
To everyone who's led one life
Then love life... its humble rhythm
To all of those who harbour dreams
All you get... is what you're given
Meanwhile the maximum... maximum goes down
Right from the start
I knew you'd break my heart
Jealous lover... jealous lover
Rope tied and bound
I been lost and found
Jealous lover... jealous lover
Jealous of my loving
Jealous of my leaving... jealous
Jealous of my living
Jealous of my breathing
Jealous lover... there's no other
If all they say and do were true
Just like you... I'd be with 'em
But lies survive... remains forbidden
For every single point of view
Then there's two... that must be hidden
Meantime the maximum... maximum goes down
Right from the start
I knew you'd break my heart
Jealous lover... jealous lover
Rope tied and bound
I been lost and found
Jealous lover... jealous lover
Jealous of my loving
Jealous of my leaving... jealous
Jealous of my living
Jealous of my breathing
Jealous lover... there's no other
Meantime - the maximum... maximum
Nothing more and nothing less
Grip tight - the maximum... the maximum
You say no... I say yes
Don't be... don't be... don't be...
Abracadabra
I held an iron fist in a velvet glove
I was silk sheathed in steel
I'd disguise every nerve inside of me
Man, I'd forgotten how to feel.
You made me feel so much stronger
This must be magic
You made me feel someone with your love
This must be magic (yes you remade me)
This must be love (yes you persuaded me)
This must be magic (you won't betray me)
This must be love
I was the hawk not the dove gave up on love
Chasing rainbows, chasing wealth
One angry young man in my own vietnam
At war with the world but just killing myself
You made me feel so much stronger
This must be magic
You made me feel someone with your love
This must be magic (yes you impressed me)
This must be love (you must have blessed me)
This must be magic (when you carress me)
This must be love
You made me feel so much stronger
This must be magic
You made me feel someone with your love
This must be magic (you resurrect me)
This must be love (swore you'd protect me)
This must be magic (say you'll respect me)
This must be love
Somehow... someway... somewhere
Bad blood - When you speak you know I'll listen
Bad blood - all your kisses now I'll miss them
Bad blood - a bulletin on in car system
Bad blood is back
There are those who complain
There are those who cope
There are those who lose all belief
There are those who still hope
There are those who can solve your problems
There are those who live life like a TV...
Life like a TV soap
Gonna bring bad blood
Bad blood - When you speak you know I'll listen
Bad blood - all your kisses now I'll miss them
Bad blood - a bulletin on in car system
Bad blood is back
There are those you should meet
There are those to avoid
There are those who act brave in defeat
There are those who feel destroyed
There are those who just mute the heartache
There are those for whom life ain't over...
Life ain't overjoyed
Gonna bring bad blood
Bad blood - When you speak you know I'll listen
Bad blood - all your kisses now I'll miss them
Bad blood - a bulletin on in car system
Bad blood is back
And bad blood breeds bad
What's good?
What's good?
What's good about goodbye?
Heartache... heartache... heartache...
Bad blood - When you speak you know I'll listen
Bad blood - all your kisses now I'll miss them
Bad blood - a bulletin on in car system
Bad blood is back
And bad blood breeds bad
It's cold outside - The night love died
On the night you murdered love
It's cold outside - The night love died
On the night you murdered love
From an early age
I was taught to respect
That a broken heart girl
Ain't a thing you collect
Close your eyes and say
Nothing lasts a day
You're wasting my time
Yet I love to love you
Close your eyes and say
Honour love obey
You're wasting my time
Yet I love to love you
It's cold outside - The night love died
On the night you murdered love
It's cold outside - The night love died
On the night you murdered love
January... February... March and April May
June July sees you go by
I see love walk away
Didn't use a blade
A bullet or a gun
You poisoned the moonlight
When you put out the sun
Close your eyes and say
Nothing lasts a day
You're wasting my time
Yet I love to love you
Close your eyes and say
Honour love obey
You're wasting my time
Yet I love to love you
It's cold outside - The night love died
On the night you murdered love
It's cold outside - The night love died
On the night you murdered love
January... February... March and April May
June July sees you go by
I see love walk away
Close your eyes and say
Nothing lasts a day
You're wasting my time
Yet I love to love you
It's cold outside - The night love died
On the night you murdered love
It's cold outside - The night love died
On the night you murdered love
It's cold outside - The night love died
Why make the past your sacred cow?
Why guess you've changed? You've changed and how
Yeah, yeah, yeah
Fruit's grown rotten on the bough
Reap what you sow, with a counterfeit plough
Yeah, yeah, yeah
That was then, but this is now
That was then, but this is now
More sacrifices than an Aztec priest
Standing here straining at that leash
All fall down
Can't complain, mustn't grumble
Help yourself to another piece of apple, crumble
And consequently
Hearts of oak are charged and blistered
Russians should be baby sitted
Americans enlisted, hey
That was then, but this is now
That was then, but this is now
That was then, but this is now
That was then, but this is now
That was then, that was then, but this is now
That was then, that was then, but this is now
That was then, that was then, but this is now
Red ribbon rainbow
A garland of gold for your hair
Wherever you go
I see faith crush despair
In chaos find courage
The answer to my prayer
Lipstick... liner... perfume... soap
Won't scrub this city or give it hope
You're the antidote... you're an...
Ark-Angel
Do you dream about me too
Ark-Angel
When I dream I dream of you
Ark-Angel
But could I change this world for you?
Ark-Angel
You do... you do
Whisper it softly
Or scream your name out loud
God built an angel
In sun and sky and cloud
Then heaven sent vengeance
To a world that once stood proud
Lipstick... liner... perfume... soap
Won't scrub this city or give it hope
You're the antidote... you're an...
Ark-Angel
Do you dream about me too
Ark-Angel
When I dream I dream of you
Ark-Angel
But could I change this world for you?
Ark-Angel
You do... you do... you do
Icarus rising - flies too close to the sun
Icarus falling - a moral for everyone
You're the only one... You're an...
Ark-Angel
Do you dream about me too
Ark-Angel
When I dream I dream of you
Ark-Angel
But could I change this world for you?
Ark-Angel
The message is perfectly simple
The meaning is clear
Don't ever stray too far
And don't dissappear
Ever had the feeling, almost broke in two?
Never had that feeling like you do, You do?
All my dreams came true last night
All my hopes and fears
All my dreams came true once more
In tears, in tears
Be near me, be near, be near...
Never had that feeling until I first met you
Never felt like kneeling. Now I do. Yes I do.
Be near me, be near
What's your reputation? Ecstasy!
What's your destination? Next to me!
Welcome to the great republic
Guess I should show you round
Where once I was a king
And now I am a clown
The love that we once shared
Made a king of me
But now you're gone... but now you're gone
All I face is poverty
...King without a heart
...King without a hope
...King without a woman baby
Oh I'm a king without a crown
...King without a heart
...King without a hope
...King without a woman baby
Oh I'm a king without a crown
Hell hath no fury
Like a woman scorned
But heaven don't boast - no heaven don't boast
The jewel - the pretty jewel I just pawned
Every cloud has a silver lining
Every dog has its day
Oh but I guess the sun stopped shining
On the day you went away
...King without a heart
...King without a hope
...King without a woman baby
Oh I'm a king without a crown
...King without a heart
...King without a hope
...King without a woman baby
Oh I'm a king without a crown
...King without a heart
...King without a hope
...King without a woooman baby
Yes I'm a king - king! King without a crown
Bathed in former glory
Deposed from my throne
How do I get to tell my story?
When all I get's your answerphone...
But you ain't home
With the love you gave
I felt like royalty
But now you're face to face - face to face
With one ex-member of the aristocracy
There's no need to feel down
Yeah just take a look around
You'll see a man who's just a man
Nothing more
I've seen the future, I can't afford it
Tell me the truth sir, someone just bought it
Say Mr. Whispers, here come the click of dice
Roulette and blackjacks, build us a paradise
Larger than life and twice as ugly
If we have to live there, you'll have to drug me
Maybe these luxuries can only compensate
For all the cards you were dealt at the hands of fate
So tell me
Tell me, tell me, how to be a millionaire?
Tell me, tell me, how to be a millionaire?
Millionaire, billionaire, trillionaire
Hardly surprising if you might consider
Loyalties go to the highest of bidders
Want my opinion? I'd give you ten to one
Give me a million, a franchise on fun
But there are millions who often get nowhere
There's just one secret I think you should share
Maybe these luxuries can only compensate
For all the cards you were dealt at the hands of fate
So tell me
Tell me, tell me, how to be a millionaire?
Tell me, tell me, how to be a millionaire?
Millionaire, billionaire, zillionaire
Maybe these luxuries can only compensate
For all the cards you were dealt babe, at the hands of fate
So tell me
Tell me, tell me, how to be a millionaire?
Tell me, tell me, how to be a millionaire?
Who wants to be millionaire?
I do, I don't, I do
Who wants to be millionaire?
I do, I don't
L-o-v-e love conquers all
Making like a romeo, making on a juliet (she said)
Maybe you're a montague, maybe you're a capulet
Maybe you don't trust me yet, let me light your cigarette
Be you shark, be you jet, never forget that
Love conquers all (l-o-v-e love)
Love conquers all (l-o-v-e love)
When bogart saw bacall
He knew that love conquers all (l-o-v-e love)
(woah) it's only love, yeah
Love conquers all
Making life a monument, making love a strategy (she said)
Baby you're so confident, why the hell you asking me
Savages from hostile tribes, slug it out on alibies
All for love, all just lies, open those eyes (sing)
Love conquers all (l-o-v-e love)
Love conquers all (l-o-v-e love)
When hate is strong, fear stands tall
Love conquers all
(woah) it's only love, yeah
Love conquers all
Anyone who loves you, anyone who breaks your heart
Anyone who makes you feel this way
Feelings deep enough to swim in
Back stroke, or crawl
It's just the beginning
Love conquers all
Love conquers all (l-o-v-e love)
Love conquers all (l-o-v-e love)
You can beg, steal or crawl (l-o-v-e love)
Love conquers all (l-o-v-e love)
When hate is strong, fear stands tall
Love conquers all
Every problem has solutions
Look inside your heart, see what you might find
You can draw your own conclusions
There's summer in your soul, winter in your mind
I love, I love, I love, I love you
I need, I need, I need you there
I love, I love, I love, I love you
Let me be your answered prayer
(Answer my, answer my, answer my prayer)
Answered prayer
(Answer my, answer my, answer my prayer)
Don't cry, tears dry
Answered prayer
(Answer my, answer my, answer my prayer)
Unhappy for a long time
A subtle shade of blue, indigo, that's you
You say that love's so hard to find
It just eluded you, I've been eluded, too
I love, I love, I love, I love you
I need, I need, I need you there
I've got to, got to, got to have you
Let me be your answered prayer
(Answer my, answer my, answer my prayer)
Answered prayer
(Answer my, answer my, answer my prayer)
Don't cry, tears dry
Answered prayer
(Answer my, answer my, answer my prayer)
Don't cry, tears dry
(Answer my, answer my, answer my prayer)
(Answer my, answer my, answer my prayer)
Open up your mind, open up your heart
Unlock your dreams, unchain desire
Open up your arms, open up your eyes
Answer my prayer
Truth be told, word to the wise
Open your heart, babe, open your eyes
Unlock your dreams, unchain desire
Answer my prayer, answer my prayer
Answer my prayer, yeah, prayer
Answer my, answer my, answer my prayer
All I want you to do, all I want to do
Is to answer my prayer, answer baby
(Answer my, answer my, answer my prayer)
I believe that this world was made for everyone
I can see all that wealth won't make a champion
All that matters in my world (life)
All that matters to me is you
Only you, only you
All that matters, only you
I don't care what people say, what people do
(let 'em talk)
I don't share that state of mind, that point of view
(let 'em sue)
(chorus)
From the top of my head to the tip of my toes
From the sole of my shoes through every stitch in my clothes
Each beat of my heart, each molecule
All that matters to me is you
All that matters to me is you
All that matters to me is you
Believe me it's true
(you're all that matters)
Now I wish you'd believe it too
I was lost in paradise
I was washed ashore
I was praying someone
Would walk right through that door
I was hung in effigy
I was flayed alive
I was lost and lonely
And struggling to survive.
Say that you need me
Say that you care
Say you believe in me
Say it, say it, say it
And I'll be there, oh yeah.
I was baked Alaska
Burning deep inside
I was wondering 'round this earth
Trying to find a place to hide.
I was Mr. Heartache
I was ripped and torn
I was hardly living
Until you came along.
Chorus
Come on and say it.
Whisper in my ear
Come on.
A ripple of uncertainty
Became a tide of change
That wave became an ocean
Now you're out of range.
Seen heaven in a rainbow
Many splendid things
None compare, none come close
You're my everything
Say that you need me
Say that you care
Say you believe in me
Say it, mean it, say it, and mean it
Say it, and mean it, say it
Pa-pa pa-pa-pa pa-da
Seeking your own satori
Pa-da pa-pa-pa pa-da
Seeking your own satori
Pa-da pa-pa-pa pa-da
Kissing the sky and heaven above
Seeking your own satori
Wringing the neck of brotherly love
Pa-da pa-pa-pa pa-da
Kissing the sky and heaven above
Seeking your own satori
Wringing the neck of brotherly love
Pa-da pa-pa-pa pa-da
Kissing the sky and heaven above
Seeking your own satori
Wringing the neck of brotherly love
Pa-da pa-pa-pa pa-da
You be the hawk and I'll be the dove
Seeking your own satori
You be the hawk and I'll be the dove
Pa-da pa-pa-pa pa-da
Kissing the sky and heaven above
Seeking your own satori
Wringing the neck of brotherly love
Seeking your own satori, seeking your own satori
It's four o'clock, and the bells are ringing
The sun is in the sky
I hear the song that the breeze is bringing
I smile and close my eyes
Slowly drifting deeper and deeper inside
I hear your voice whispering softly
We're leaving the world outside
Just hold my hand and we'll go skyscraping
So high, you and I
If your mama asks you, say, we're just escaping
We're gonna be sky high
Time flies, but I don't know where it's going
You vanish in the haze
Sometimes I wish that life could be everlasting
These are our Polaroid days
Slowly melting, the sun slips from the sky
I see your face, but it's fading quickly
We're leaving the world behind
Just hold my hand and we'll go skyscraping
So high, you and I
If your mama asks you, say, we're just escaping
We're gonna be sky high
Just hold my hand and we'll go skyscraping
So high, you and I
If your mama asks you, say, we're just escaping
We're gonna be sky high
Just hold my hand and we'll go skyscraping
So high, you and I
If your mama asks you, say, we're just escaping
We're gonna be sky high
You and me, yeah, sky high
You and me, so high
What a state to be in
It's a world of indecision
So self destructive
And such an ugly business
In and out of fashion
You always leave your mark
An indefinite decision
A dangerous remark
** when you're cold and tired
Don't turn your head away
The distance that's between us
Gets bigger every day
* how come you never see
You're as faraway as faraway can be
You're as faraway as faraway can be
You try so hard to impress
You talk the telephone to death
It's what you can't see that counts
But you haven't worked that out yet
There is no reason
There is no plan
The truth can be deceptive
From such a quiet man
There's madness in your words
Not wishing to be heard
But just like yesterday
You've already slipped away
(* repeat)
(** repeat)
(* repeat)
You're as faraway as faraway
As faraway as faraway
As faraway as faraway
As faraway as faraway
As faraway as faraway
There's so much panic in this world
But we are livin' in the best
Of all possible worlds
Fear of the world
No fear, no fear of the world
Fear of the world
No fear, no fear of the world
Deep inside of me
Well I got this wanderlust
Remember how we talked last night?
Well it's just as we discussed
Ashes turn to ashes
Cash turns to dust
There's no-one in this world right now
You think you can trust
No real bruises I can show
Traveling the world on the radio
No real scars I can display
Burning up tomorrow into yesterday
No fear of the world
No fear, no fear of the world
Fear of the world
No fear, no fear of the world
Deep inside of me
In the seat of my pants
There's a pain as big and hard
As a civil disturbance
(Conquer all your fears, seize every chance)
In the end make fear your friend
And change your circumstance
No real bruises I can show
Traveling the world on the radio
No real scars I can display
Burning up tomorrow into yesterday
Fear of the world
No fear, no fear of the world
Fear of the world
No fear, no fear of the world
([Incomprehensible])
Fear of the world
No fear, no fear of the world
Fear of the world
No fear, no fear of the world
Fear of the world
No fear, no fear of the world
(Fear)
(Fear)
(Fear)
(Fear)
(Fear)
Fear of the world
(Fear)
(Fear)
(Fear)
(Fear)
No, no, no, no, no fear of the world
Fear of the world
No fear, no fear of the world
Fear of the world
No fear, no fear of the world
(Fear)
(Fear)
So trouble comes strolling through the door
But anything worth having's worth fighting for
Fiction or fact you'll supply the plot
We'll both be featured - like it or not
Yes I guess you think I'm stupid and brutal
I should confess that the feeling is mutual
It's not between the devil and the deep blue see
Not between the truth and hypocrisy
Not between freedom and democracy...
But between you - between you...
Between you and me
Between you - between you...
Between you and me
The stars and stripes meet the hammer and sickle
Not for honour but roubles and nickles
It ain't fisticuffs, it's a full scale war
Your secrets no secret anymore
Yes I guess you think I'm stupid and brutal
I should confess that the feeling is mutual
It's not between the devil and the deep blue see
Not between the truth and hypocrisy
Not between freedom and democracy...
But between you - between you...
Between you and me
Between you - between you...
Between you and me
Bottle blondes and beach boys
Might marvel at the size
But honey something that big
You now the best don't advertise
Has no one ever told you
You gotta body build to last
But with that 15 storey dead stop
You're going nowhere, and fast
10-20-30-40, 15 storey halo
10-20-30-40, 15 storeys high
10-20-30-40, 15 storey halo
10-20-30-40, 7 miles wide, 7 miles wide
Ask a judge and jury
Joe find me 12 just men
We're gonna bottle up their fury
Make sure it don't happen again
All the rebel boys got payrolled
Now they're queuing outside the bank
Like 14 carat Playboys
On a trans cool trans world tramp
10-20-30-40, 15 storey halo
10-20-30-40, 15 storeys high
10-20-30-40, 15 storey halo
10-20-30-40, 7 miles wide, 7 miles wide
And so you meet this guy
A regular gala had
A real house trained barbarian
And so you drop him, like a bad habit
Anything that comes along
You grab it, you grab it
10-20-30-40
10-20-30-40
10-20-30-40
15 storey halo
Yes we're all waiting
For the saving grace
Hands that soothe
Hands that smoothe the human race
Oh, we're all waiting
For a saving grace
Hands that soothe
Hands that smoothe the human race
Yes we're all waiting
For the saving grace
Hands that soothe
Hands that smoothe the human race
15 storey halo
15 storey halo
15 storey halo
Was it rage or regret
Or the love I was feeling
In this age - who's perfect... are you?
Wasn't made to forget
This moment worth stealing
Was it rage or regret or the two
Every morning when I wake up
Wake up dreaming then... wake up dreaming
Build a temple from you fragrance
Build a chapel in your heart
Do you really understand
Do you feel the need to try
Do you even care for me
Do you ever wonder why
Rage and then regret
'Bout as real as real can get
Rage and then regret
Through the violence the angry silence
Does our love grow strong or die
A parachute or a pilot's licence
Do we fall in love or fly
Do you really understand
Do you feel the need to try
Do you even care for me
Do you ever wonder why
Rage and then regret
'Bout as real as real can get
Rage and then regret
The harder we come
The harder we fall
The harder it is to stand tall
The more that we fight
The more that we brawl
The more we're alike - that's all... that's all
Rage and then regret
'Bout as real as real can get
Rage and then regret
Rage and then regret
'Bout as real as real can get
There are things you don't forget
By default by design
Time after time
Maybe you earned it,
Maybe you spurned it
But you got it...
You got it
Call it attraction or charm
Sound the alarm
Maybe you earned it,
Maybe you spurned it
But you got it...
Yes, you got it
Breaking hearts your speciality?
Why did you ever have to come so close to me
Was it love or morbid curiosity?
Either way I'd say that love's a possibility
Come a little closer,
Let me see you in close detail
The object of my affections
Walked off in the other direction
By default by design
Time after time
Maybe you earned it,
Maybe you spurned it
But you got it...
You got it
Call it attraction or charm
Sound the alarm
Maybe you earned it,
Maybe you spurned it
But you got it...
Yes, you got it
Modern day Romeo's,
Modern day Juliet's
Selling their love for a packet of cigarettes
Still I remember the day that we first met...
And yet so far, so good
So what else can we ever expect?
Come a little closer, let me see you in close detail
The object of my affections walked off in the other direction
By default by design
Time after time
Maybe you earned it,
Maybe you spurned it
But you got it...
You got it
Call it attraction or charm
Sound the alarm
Maybe you earned it,
Maybe you spurned it
But you got it...
With a little faith, we could raise the land
With a little hope, we could move as planned
With a little faith, we could raise the land
With a little hope, we could move as planned
Farm the ghetto up, feed the famine down
With our nose to the grindstone
Ear to the ground, find a steady job
Build a happy home
Farm a steady crop then depose the throne
We could irrigate thirst quenching lake
Make a fertile place, thus the desert spake
Spill the feathers up
Slash the silk might as well, stop, boo
Hooing over all that spilt milk
Empty trap, screaming eye
Seething lip, stop wondering
Why butter mountains here? Better motivate, it?s getting late
Assassinate the grain, co, co, co, co, commotion
Before a global war, we?d better bridge the ocean
Just like an open wound that
Forever bleeds just like an open plain
In scattered seeds or the foolish man
Some men seek solace
Some take to drink
Some men find knowledge, yeah
At least that's what they think
Some take to violence
Streamlining their dreams
Some sit in silence
And learn what love can mean
Much further to go
Much further to crawl
But one day you'll find
The greatest love of all
The greatest love of all
The greatest love of all
The load is tough
The path is long
Strewn with rocks yeah
But you'd be wrong, so wrong
One single spark
Can start a prairie fire
When one man speaks truth
He fills the world with pure desire
Much further to go
Much further to crawl
But one day you'll find
The greatest love of all
The greatest love of all
The greatest love of all
One day united
One day free
You'll be rewarded
The one true path is unity
Fruit don't fall
Too far from the tree
One day we'll bathe
In true humility
Much further for truth
Much further to fall
I pray that you'll find
The greatest love of all
The greatest love of all
So here we are
Drifting on an open sea
So here we are
For all we know but then again
We know for all we know
You know, you know
With all the power that I possess
Let's match their money with our own finesse
Why should we ever have to settle for less?
Why does this message always have to be...
S.O.S. S.O.S. S.O.S.
S.O.S. S.O.S. S.O.S.
S.O.S. S.O.S. S.O.S.
One cool million for one cool caress
So here we are
Still drifting on an open sea
So here we are
For all we know but then again
We know for all we know
I know, I know
With all the power that I possess
Let's match their money with our own finesse
Why should we ever have to settle for less?
Why does this message always have to be...
S.O.S. S.O.S. S.O.S.
S.O.S. S.O.S. S.O.S.
S.O.S. S.O.S. S.O.S.
One cool million for one so possessed
S.O.S. S.O.S. S.O.S.
Sun beats hard
On Sunset Boulevard
Much harder still
In Notting Hill
A northwind blows
And carries me home
Carries my heart, carries my soul
When cool silks they turn to suede
When young dreams are torn and frayed
The South feels so cold and grey
Today! Today the North's too many miles away
Today! Today I got to get away
I'm driving north
I'm heading home
I'm driving back
To the place I once belonged
It's all gone silent
The light begins to fade
One man unplugs
The penny arcade
And carries me home
Carries my heart, carries my soul
I'm driving north
I'm heading home
I'm driving back
To the place I once belonged
One sweet bouquet
The flowers strewn
The petals scattered
Here in the North
No dreams are shattered
I'm driving north
I'm heading home
I'm driving back
To the place I once belonged
No we don't feel angry
No we don't feel betrayed
Unlike our fathers
We don't remember better days
No we don't feel angry
No we don't feel betrayed
We just live
Knifing my way through a diamond mine
Dragging those rocks
From seabed to shoreline
Rubies and sapphires from Emerald bay
Stretching across the milky way
One day... one day...
Prospecting gold and staking my claim
But the only thing I treasure
Is hearing your name
Most everyone dreams diamonds and furs
I dream of love and baby it's yours
One day... one day...
One day you'll realise
You'll see it on her eyes
No room for alibis - one day... one day...
One day you'll realise
Feel me materialise
You'll see you're just a fool to leave me
One day... one day... one day soon baby
They say that your life is an open book
Well I just wrote a chapter so take a look
Can't blame it on fate or destiny
Now that your book... it features me
One day... one day...
One day you'll realise
You'll see it on her eyes
No room for alibis - one day... one day...
One day you'll realise
Feel me materialise
You'll see you're just a fool to leave me
One day... one day... one day soon baby
Hardly a day goes by without me thinking of you
No matter how hard I try you can't escape a dream
Living my life - in the lap of luxury
Living my life - confuse me... confuse me babee
One day you'll realise
You'll see it on her eyes
No room for compromise - one day... one day...
One day you'll realise
Feel me materialise
You'll see you're just a fool to leave me
You can't shake a dream - how I wish that you could
One day you're mine get that understood
Until then each night I shall pray
For a love that lasts forever and...
When I accepted this job
I was resigned to my fate
When I got there early
She?d arrive late
You can say she?s gone forever
Or just sit tight and wait
She said I was unprincipled
That I was not the first
Like the phoenix coming back
From the ashes, uh huh
I know what?s good
But I know what trash is
In the head lights
In the highlights of her hair
Hit the head lines
But she?s not there
Many happy returns, many happy returns
These are the lessons I could have learned
Return, many happy returns
And these are the letters I should have burned
Okay, I?m sad, not blue
Okay, remember
All that matters to me now
Is the message I sent her
Like the world, spinning ?round
On it?s axis, uh huh
I know democracy
But I know what?s fascist
When she?s gone, all I've got to learn
Is the law of diminishing return
When she?s here one thing I?ve found
Things get better second time around
Return, many happy returns
These are the lessons that I could have learned
Return, many happy returns
And these are the letters I should have burned
Okay I?m sad, not blue
Okay, remember
All that matters to me now
Is the message I sent her
Now she?s gone, she?s gone away
Now she?s gone forget her
Coming back another day
If you?d only let her
And now she?s gone, she?s gone away
But now she?s gone forget her
I'm coming back no other day
So why resurrect her?
Many happy returns, many happy returns
These are the lessons I should have learned
Many happy returns, many happy returns
Like kisses from ices
And tiffany tokens
Life's full of surprises
So many emotions
Why try to fix
What isn't broken
Life comes in sovereigns
Love comes in gold
A cargo of moments
You'd swear you could hold
But it slips away somehow
(where) nobody knows
* love is it's own reward
Love is it's own reward
Take it or leave it
Fake it or feel it
Love is it's own reward
Hoist the mainsail
To perilous waters
Step below deck
You'll find elegant quarters
Who's gonna save you
If you should falter
Watch the main phase
Sail through the century
Rise like a starman
And blaze on re-entry
What's there to life
Running on empty
(* repeat)
Walking down main street
With cupid and psyche
Whom should we meet
But sweet aphrodite
I fall to my knees
And praise the almighty
We never go hungry
We never get bored
We are the future
That can't be ignored
Love can rob you of your thunder
And that's more than you can afford
(* repeat)
Love is it's own reward
Love is it's own reward
Take it or leave it
Let me reveal it
you're gaining so much
you're losing your spark
swimming with dolphins
slumming with sharks
either way the city
drives you crazy
after dark
tell it like it is
you don't have to die
before you live
lose yourself
to find yourself sometimes
confuse yourself
and blind yourself sometimes
you're gaining so much
so scared you might drown
all your prized possessions
are bringing you down
either ways not pretty
going crazy in this town
tell it like it is
you don't have to die
before you live
lose yourself
to find yourself sometimes
confuse yourself
and blind yourself sometimes
yeah sometimes
lose yourself
to find yourself sometimes
confuse yourself
and blind yourself sometimes
lose yourself
to find yourself sometimes
fool yourself
blind yourself
sometimes
sometimes
sometimes
sometimes
I never promised you eternity
I never meant to be unkind
All I gave
You returned to me
But love's the last thing on my mind
Nothing in this world's invincible
No-one's heart is made of stone
And though I know I'm yours in principle
I'm the one thing you'll never own
If you can live your life without me
Turn and walk away
Minutes turn to hours
Hours turn to days
If you can't stand a single moment
Then go
But kiss me goodbye
Kiss me Kiss me Kiss me
Kiss me goodbye
Kiss me goodbye
I never promised you infinity
I never swore on oath for you
Did you expect the holy trinity
In all I say and all that I do?
If you can live your life without me
Turn and walk away
Minutes turn to hours
Hours turn to days
If you can't stand a single moment
Then go
But kiss me goodbye
Kiss me Kiss me Kiss me
Kiss me goodbye
Kiss me goodbye
It's not emotional extravagance
We've said farewell a thousand times
Why pretend there'll be a second chance
Unless this last kiss changes you mind?
If you can live your life without me
Turn and walk away
Minutes turn to hours
Hours turn to days
If you can't stand a single moment
Then go
But kiss me goodbye
Kiss me Kiss me Kiss me
Kiss me goodbye
Here they come,
Slumming their way outta the ja'causezi,
Well, I've lived in a slum, sugar plum,
Hit and run
And it did not amuse me
There they go,
Moving around on the radio,
Well I've been on that show,
Reap and sow, feed and grow
And it did not amuse me
Hey citizen! hey american!
Hey russian! hey citizen!
Beauty stab,
When the good things in life
Have all grown bad,
The cat's out the bag
Smash and grab, burn the flag
And didn't it fool me throw it out,
It's not worth the paper it's written on
No ifs and buts,
Spending cuts, cheaper smut,
They say they could use me
All through summer,
There's no glamour in the slammer,
No glamour in the slammer,
Until you make a run
All through summer, the splendours
Pretty slender
The splendours pretty slender
Until you make a run
Here they come,
Slumming their way out of the ja'causezi,
Well I've lived in a slum, sugar plum,
Hit and run and it did not amuse me
There they go,
Grooving around on the radio
Well I've been on that show, reap and sow
Feed and grow, and it didn't amuse me
Hey villager! hey citizen!
Hey countryman! hey, now listen!
Hey chinaman! hey european!
Hey russian! hey american!
Hey cowboy! hey indian!

Politician puppets are preaching in high places
Trying to hide the fear written on their faces
Facing a future, liquidating hope
Freezing the fire, your dreams go up in smoke
Carry the weight of this world
You're gonna do more harm than good
You're gonna lose yourself in responsibility
Don't blame your heart, don't blame your soul
Don't blame your lack of self-control
Lay the blame on me
Don't blame the sun, don't blame the sky
Blame yourself and I'll ask why
Lay the blame on me
Bossanova bandits, thieves and self-proclaimers
Are leading a life of crime, designed to entertain us
The poor and the needy, the rich and the priviliged
Open up a great divide when all we need's a bridge
Carry the weight of this world
You're gonna do more harm than good
You're gonna lose yourself in responsibility
Don't blame your heart, don't blame your soul
Don't blame your lack of self-control
Lay the blame on me
Don't blame the sun, don't blame the sky
Blame yourself and I'll ask why
Lay the blame on me
Carry the weight of this world
You're gonna do more harm than good
You're gonna lose yourself in responsibility
Don't blame your heart, don't blame your soul
Don't blame your lack of self-control
Lay the blame on me
Don't blame the sun, don't blame the sky
Blame yourself and I'll ask why
Lay the blame on me
Don't blame your heart, don't blame your soul
Don't blame your lack of self-control
When I'm high, you're low
When I'm up, you're down
And we're never around
When we need each other
Back stabbing
You know that I bleed
I just know you'll disagree
Ask a thousand times
A thousand times I'll say no
Love is never blind
Though sometimes you might think so
Ask a thousand times
A thousand times you'll hear me say
Love is like a weapon
When you're back stabbing me
When I'm weak, you're strong
When I'm all right, you're all wrong
And we don't get along
Anymore
Back stabbing
You know where that leads
I just know you'll disagree
Ask a thousand times
A thousand times I'll say no
Love is never blind
Though sometimes you might think so
Ask a thousand times
A thousand times you'll hear me say
Love is like a weapon
When you're back stabbing me
Ask a thousand times
A thousand times I'll say no
Love is never blind
Though sometimes you might think so
Ask a thousand times
A thousand times you'll hear me say
Love is like a weapon
When you're back stabbing me
When I'm high, you're low
When I'm weak, you're strong
Ask a thousand times
A thousand times I'll say no
Love is never blind
Though sometimes you might think so
Ask a thousand times
A thousand times you'll hear me say
Love is like a weapon
When you're back stabbing me
Ask a thousand times
A thousand times I'll say no
Love is never blind
Though sometimes you might think so
Ask a thousand times
A thousand times you'll hear me say
Love is like a weapon
Hit me one time
Hit me twice
The power's coming
The power's coming
The pen is mightier than the sword
You're gonna hear my vocal cords
In the beginning there was low Tec
In the beginning there was high Tec
In the beginning there was discotheque
We know what's good
We know what's bad
We know what's supper bad
In the beginning there was rhythm
In the beginning there was drums
In the beginning there was bass man
Perfect rhythm is the sign of a true thoroughbred
Meet drum aristocrat Mr. David Robinson
A sucker
A sucker for syncopation
Let your fingers do the walkin'
Let mister bass man do the talkin'
The sound you are hearing in the background
Is the sound of mister bass man and his bass too
Mister Bizz and his alphabet
The sound of plastic and elastic
That put the whole alphabetical soup together
Umm taste nice
Am I right or am I wrong
You'll find this mark where the beat goes on
6 strings at his disposal
60's soul in his whole low

Lets take it down
Get out of
Once upon a time when we were friends
I gave you my heart, the story ends
No happy ever after, now were friends
Wish upon a star if that might help
The stars collide if you decide
Wish upon a star if that might help
What's it like to have loved and to lose her touch?
What's it like to have loved and to lose that much?
Well I hope and I pray that maybe someday
You'll walk in the room with my heart
Add and subtract but as a matter of fact
Now that you're gone I still want you back
Remembering, surrendering
Remembering that part
All of my heart
Spilling up pink silk and coffee lace
You hook me up, I rendevouz at your place
Your lipstick and your lip gloss seals my fate
Sentimental powers might help you now
But skip the hearts and flowers, skip the ivory towers
You'll be disappointed and I'll lose a friend
No I won't be told there's a crock of gold at the end of the rainbow
Or that pleasure and pain, sunshine and rain might make this love grow
But I hope and I pray that maybe someday
You'll walk in the room with my heart
Add and subtract but as a matter of fact
Now that you're gone I still want you back
Remembering, surrendering
The kindest cut's the cruelest part
All of my heart
Yes I hope and I pray that maybe someday
You'll walk in the room with my heart
And I shrug and I say that maybe today
You'll come home soon
Surrendering, remembering
Surrendering that part
All of my heart
All of my heart
All of my heart
All of my heart
All of my, all of my heart
All of my heart
All of my heart
All of my heart
My name is Martin Fry, F-R-Y
Who needs the moon
When we got the stars
A-B-C
A-B-C
A-B-C
Hi, I'm Eden
I'm eager to kiss my snatch
A-B-C
A-B-C
Howdy disco citizens
I'm David Year-or-two
I may be tiny
But I'm strong

Speak no evil
Speak no evil
You can?t tell me
How to run my life
You can?t tell me
Drugs you?re using
You?re talking loud
And saying nothing
Walking proud
And going nowhere fast
You know
If you could tell me
How to find belief
If you told me
I?d believe you
Speak no evil
Hear no evil
See no evil
I?ll close my eyes
You know, love grows
4 ever 2 gether, 4 years 2 come
4 love 2 strong, 4 us 2 part
4 ever 2 gether, 4 years 2 come
4 love 2 strong, 4 us 2 part
I stuck a marriage proposal
In the waste disposal
If that?s the trash aesthetic
I?d suggest that we forget it
Your twelve disciples
Might kiss and tell
But you can tell me
Much more than they can
Right now
A mathematical equation
Won?t describe my liaison
The stars in the sky
Might try persuading
But you can tell me
I won?t hear you
You can?t tell me
I gave up the listening years ago
4 ever 2 gether, 4 years 2 come
4 love 2 strong, 4 us 2 part
4 ever 2 gether, 4 years 2 come
4 love 2 strong, 4 us 2 part
So you?re broken heart
Here, take it to the mender
I got something
On the agenda
Speak no
Speak no
Speak no evil
4 ever 2 gether, 4 years 2 come
4 love 2 strong, 4 us 2 part
4 when 2 hearts, but strong and sweet
1 promise, I can never meet
Forgive and forget, 4 goodness sake
4 love this strong, might make or break
4 ever 2 gether, 4 years 2 come
4 love 2 strong, 4 us 2 part
Two?s a party, three?s a crowd
I?m surprised what get?s allowed
Three coins inside the fountain
You saw Mohammed move the mountain
Speak no evil, speak no evil
Speak no evil, speak no evil
Your sincerely, have nearly
Your spiritfully, well eventually
I saw you back in '59
You were booing Elvis
Trying hard to act so sublime
And get this
You said that country boy was never good
Burning his records in the neighbourhood
Dust in the dawn and drawing blood
I see you
I've seen you before
I've seen you back then
I'll see you again my friend
In the way back when
I saw you back in '68
Smiling through a Woodstock haze
Telling anyone who'd listen
You'd be voting Nixon
Said Hendrix was just a faze
I saw you back in '77
At The Buzzcocks gig
Wearing safety pins and diamond rings
Said you were dating Sid
I've seen you before
I've seen you back then
I'll see you again my friend
In the way back when
(repeat)
I saw you back in '88
Some place deep in {Shume???}
Dropping Es like vitamins
You said house was doomed
You say that Izzy made you dizzy
A liar got you higher
Ripping me up like a sabre-toothed tiger
I see you
I see you
I see through you
I've seen you before
I've seen you back then
I'll see you again my friend
In the way back when
You think the world will melt if you whistle
There's a certain spring in your stride
You face the future like a heat-seeking missile
You've got yourself a smile a mile wide
(Yes, you have)
Viva Love
Viva Love, Viva Love, Viva Love
Viva Love
Viva, viva
When lightning strikes you don't look for shelter
You're floating free, gravity defied
It's hell for leather on a helter skelter
So steel your nerves for a bright white knuckle ride
(Yes, you should)
Viva Love
Viva Love, Viva Love, Viva Love
Viva Love
Viva, viva
In the battle of the sexes
Victory's denied
I'm charging your tanks
With slingshots and knives
My troops they retreat
And run for their lives
I'm facing defeat
But somehow love survives
Viva Love
Viva Love, Viva Love, Viva Love
Viva Love
Viva, viva
You think the world will melt if you whistle
There's a certain spring in your stride
If only I could stand
On my own two feet
Oh honey, then I'd know
Life could be so sweet
Someone to drive
Someone to blame
Someone to rush through my veins
Someone to wash it all away
* Who can I turn to now
If not you, tell me
Who can I turn to
If not you
If I could get
What I want for free
Then I wouldn't have to borrow
Take a tranquilliser
From your limousine driver
before we crash into tomorrow
Someone to love
Someone to hold me
Someone so courageous
Someone to drag me in from the cold
(* repeat 3 times)
Who can I turn to (tell me who)
Who's gonna be there (if not you)
Tell me who (tell me)
Tell me who (tell me)
Tell me who
Tell me who can I turn to
(if not you)
Ooh (tell me who)
You've got to, you've got to
Vandals in ermine
Rip city skylines
Dodge truth and virtue
With slick city bylines
A paragon of virtue
Until they hurt you
In power and in status
We know they hate us
So where is the heaven?
And where is there love
Where the hell is the heaven?
You're so proud of
Power is preaching
The virtues of poverty
Poor are left feeding
On cruel comedy... sad laughter
Rescue us all now
From fumes that choke us
Shift then these sad lives
Into sweet focus
So where is the heaven?
And where is there love
Where the hell is the heaven?
That you boast of
Prestige it sits high
On Mammons after
Porsche hungry pinheads
On champagne and oysters
Headfull of hollow thoughts
Handful of sushi
Plug into Dallas
Plug into Dynasty
So where is the heaven?
And where is there love
Where the hell is the heaven?
That you're so proud of
Now I am loving
Where once I was hating
Leading a good life
Stopped paging Satan
Played devils advocate
So many times
Lived in the shadow
But the sun will shine
So where is the heaven?
And where is there love
Where the hell is the heaven?
You're so proud of
Where is the kingdom
You say we squander
Where the hell is the heaven?
Debonair lullabies in melodies revealed
In deep despair on lonely nights
He knows just how you feel
The slyest rhymes - the sharpest suits
In miracles made real
Like a bird in flight on a hot sweet night
You know you're right just to hold her tight
He soothes it right - makes it outtasite
And everything's good in the world tonight!
When Smokey sings - I hear violins
When Smokey sings - I forget everything
As she's packing her things
As she's spreading her wings
The front door might slam
But the back door it rings
And Smokey sings... he sings
Elegance in eloquence - for sale or rent or hire
Should I say - yes I match his best
Then I would be a liar
Symphonies that soothe the rage
When lovers' hearts catch fire
Like a bird in flight on a hot sweet night
You know you're right just to hold her tight
He soothes it right - makes it outtasite
And everything's good in the world tonight!
When Smokey sings - I hear violins
When Smokey sings - I forget everything
As she's packing her things
As she's spreading her wings
Smashing the hell
With the heaven she brings
Then Smokey sings... he sings
Luther croons
Sly's the original - originator
James screams
Marvin was the only innovator
But nothing can compare
Nothing can compare
When Smokey sings
When Smokey sings - I hear violins
When Smokey sings - I forget everything
As she's packing her things
As she's spreading her wings
She threw back the ring
When Smokey sings...
Smokey sings...
Goodbye!
Every face in the street, everyone that I meet
I think it's you in disguise
I hear sweet angels sing, life's a radiant thing
I'm bewitched and tantalized, yeah
What's good about goodbye?
No one ever told me
What's good about goodbye?
Wish you could hold me
Nothing fair about fairwell
Nothing fair at all
What's good about goodbye?
Nothing at all
I'd be fooling myself, chasing anyone else
It's you that I prize
Why praise to heaven above, why praising God for sweet love?
When it's you I idolize
(Chorus)
What's good, What's good
What's good about goodbye?
What's good, What's good
I feel bad about good goodbye
No truth in the rumour that parting is sweet
You lose your sense of humour, you feel incomplete
There's heaven in hello, hell in goodbye
Now that you're leaving, I'd rather die
(Chorus)
I was a rich man, I was a thief
I was a sailor, shipwrecked on a reef
I was a coward, I was afraid
I was couragious, man I was brave
Until the oceans dry
Until the day you die
Until the stars fall out the sky
Welcome to the real world baby
Welcome to the way things are
Welcome to the real world darling
Step on for shangri-la
Welcome to the real world baby
Paradise guarantee
Welcome to the real world
Come and see what we've bequeathed
I was an angel, idolised
I was a devil in a disguise
I was a stalion, I was a mule
I was misguided, but nobody's fool
(chorus)
The day that I was born, daddy placed me on his knee
Said son you've got to be, a better man than me
You're inherriting the world, make your mark on history
Welcome to the real world, be what you've got to be
Have you heard the latest
(You love you)
Have you seen who just walked in
(Vain, vain, vain, vain)
(Uh huh, you love you)
Right over there
(She's so vain, vain, vain, vain)
Yeah, come on
(Vain, vain, vain, vain)
I'm glad you've found someone who loves you
But sad to say that someone is you
And now perhaps you'll both be happy
Guess that makes two, just you and you
Someone who cares so much about you
But does that someone have to be you
Bom bom bom bom, bom bom bom bom, yeah
Bom bom bom bom, bom bom bom bom, yeah
Vanity kills, it don't pay bills
Vanity kills, you love you
Vanity kills, it don't pay bills
Vanity kills, it kills
Vain, vain, vain, vain
So glad I found you glancing in the mirror
Gazing deeply at love's patron saint
Admire the frame, survey the scenery
Or are you just inspecting the paint
Temptation's strong modesty's so weak
High on yourself, humble you ain't
Bom bom bom bom, bom bom bom bom, yeah
Bom bom bom bom, bom bom bom bom, yeah
Vanity kills, it don't pay bills
Vanity kills, you love you
Vanity kills, it don't pay bills
Vanity kills, you love you
Vanity kills, it don't pay bills
(No way)
Vanity kills, you love you
Vanity kills, it don't pay bills
Vanity kills, it kills
So vain, vain vain vain vain
You love you, yeah
Give it up, give it up
So vain, so, so vain, so vain
Vanity kills, it don't pay bills
Vanity kills, you love you
Vanity kills, it don't pay bills
Vanity kills, you love you
Vanity kills, it don't pay bills
(No way)
Vanity kills, you love you
Vanity kills, if the blast don't get you
Then the fallout will
When the postman don't call on Valentine's Day
And Santa Claus don't come on a Christmas Day
That umbrella won't work on a rainy day
Don't ask me, I already know
When they find you beached on the barrier reef
And the only pleasure treasured is in map relief
The choice is yours sure, saint or thief
Don't ask me I already know
Yes they baked your cake in little slices
Kept your eye on rising prices
Wound up winning booby prizes
I'm sure you'd like to think you know what life is
Find destiny through magazines
Lip-licking, unzipping, Harpers and Queens
From here to eternity without in-betweens
Don't ask me, I already know
With your heart on parade and your heart on parole
I hope you find a sucker to buy that mink stole
School for scandal, guess who's enrolled?
So ask me, I already know
When they find you beached on the barrier reef
When the postman don't call on Valentine's Day
When the only pleasure treasured is in map relief
When you don't tell the truth, that's the price you pay
When I'm shaking a hand, I'm clenching a fist
If you gave me a pound for the moments I missed
And I got dancing lessons for all the lips I shoulda kissed
Love's just the gimmick
A mime or a mimic
That makes sex seem respectable
Make you feel more than a dream holding me
Holding me, holding me, holding me
Lips that seem so kissable
Unpermissible unzippable unzip!
Why take pleasure in censorship
Unzip! unzip! unzip!
She's vegetarian except when it comes
To sex
He's strictly ad lib
Except when he consults the text
Lips that seem so kissable
Unpermissible unzippable unzip!
You're just the captain of a sinking ship
Unzip! unzip! unzip!
Lips that seem so kissable
Unpermissable unzippable unzip!
You shoulda let your snarl, slip
Do you remember sunday nights, summer time at shoom
Joy big enough to fill the world, just inside that room
Do you remember friday nights at the hacienda?
Armistace for gangs, no fights, just beats to make the world surrender
Was it all a dream?
Was it some nightmare?
Crazy as it seems
Love was in the air
No war, no hate, no more
If you'd unlock the secrets of your
No war, no hate, no more
If you'd unlock the secrets of your heart
Day to day existence got it's gentle grip on you
Suffocating your soul, eclipsing everything you do
(chorus)
Everybody just looking for an answer
Everybody till the day they die
Everybody live with indecision
Everybody seek, everybody find
Everybody want to dance till sunrise
Everybody want to sweat some noise
Everybody want to kiss that dj
Every single girl, everysingle boy
Everybody got their own sweet wisdom
Everybody just a look to start
Everybody got it, inside their heart
(chorus)
There's a gang I've just joined
There's a gang I've just joined
Three million strong you'd agree
Four million strong you'd agree
Enrollment was easy, so easy
Getting out proves to be the difficulty
From land's end to john o'groats
From land's end to john o'groats
They are making ends meet
Mending holes in their coat
Fasting and feasting on bread and margarine
Burning dreams build upon buried hopes
United kingdom - you'd better ring them
You've a solution - you better bring them
United kingdom - united kingdom
You've a solution - you better bring them
Opportunity, I guess they all came and went
Finding it hard
Finding the rent you'll find it funny
With your finger running down
Situations vacant
In school he was an athlete
Now he's not so self-assured
"after all of these o-levels is this my reward? "
There's a silent majority, that's seen and
Never heard from charles i, charles ii
To charles iii
United kingdom - you'd better ring them
You've a solution - you better bring them
United kingdom - united kingdom
This busted, rusted, upper-crusted
Bankrupted done and dusted
No-man-to-be-trusted united kingdom
Proud to stand beneath the union jack?
Happy dealing up a no ace pack?
Polishing black boots
Priming the riot squad
There go I but for the grace of god
Covering up the agony with mindless entertainment
You'll be happy when they're ripping up the pavement
Bringing down the axe on steelworks and foundries
Someone said love knows no boundaries
Close your eyes and think of england
Lie back and think of her
United kingdom - you better ring them
He always runs while others walk
He acts while other men just talk
He looks at this world and wants it all
So he strikes like Thunderball
He knows the meaning of success
His needs are more so he gives less
They call him the winner who takes all
And he strikes like Thunderball
Any woman he wants he'll get
He will break any heart without regret
His days of asking are all gone
His fight goes on and on and on
But he thinks that the fight is worth it all
Better call and collect
Treat me with respect
If you think our love is pedigree
Push a button... disconnect
Dial again... redirect
You're wrong... you know it isn't me
Totally misguided
Babe you're misadvised
Don't even try to fight it
You're promises are lies
Did you think our love was sacred
Well it's much too over-rated
Think again... you're wrong
And our love's a precious memory
Better look what heaven sent me
Think again you're wrong
Don't need a horoscope
Don't need a telescope
To see the way you cheat on me
Think I'd give up hope
Hanging by a rope
If I thought you'd never set me free
Totally misguided
Think our love is strong
Think I'd get excited?
I think you'd got it wrong
Did you think our love was sacred
Well it's much too over-rated
Think again... you're wrong
And our love's a precious memory
Better look what heaven sent me
Think again you're wrong
I'll admit to being confused
And I'm used to being used
Think again... you're wrong
So wrong... so wrong... so wrong
Think again... think again... think!
Think again...think!
Think again... think!
Love to believe you - love you and leave
You're wrong... so wrong
Hate to deceive you - love you then leave
You're wrong... so wrong
No secret sneak preview - don't need to see
If I were to say to you
"Can you keep a secret?"
Would you know just what to do
Or where to keep it?
Then I say"I love you"
And foul the situation
"Hey girl I thought we were
The right combination".
Who broke my heart?
You did, you did
Bow to that target,
Blame Cupid, Blame Cupid
You think you're smart
Stupid, Stupid.
Shoot that poison arrow to my heart
Shoot that poison arrow
Shoot that poison arrow to my heart
Shoot that poison arrow
No rhythm in cymbals
No tempo in drums
Love on the horizon
Lit by the sun
Right on the target
But wide of the mark
What I thought was fire
Was only a spark
The sweetest melody
Is an unheard refrain
So lower your sights, boys
Yeah but raise your aim
But raise your aim raise your aim
Who broke my heart?
You did, you did
Bow to that target
Blame Cupid, Blame Cupid
You think you're smart
Stupid, Stupid
Shoot that poison arrow to my heart
Shoot that poison arrow
Shoot that poison arrow to my heart
Shoot that poison arrow
STicks and stones
May break my bones
But words they almost killed me
You changed your mind
Now you change mine
You know you'll always thrill me
Shoot that poison arrow to my heart
Shoot that poison arrow
Shoot that poison arrow to my heart
Shoot that poison arrow
I'm not cynical
I'm not naive
I lost my faith in everything
But now I believe
It's not the principle
I'm not invisible
You open up the door
And you ask me to leave
I'm not stupid
I'm not smart
I'm not arrogant enough
To suffer for my art
I'm not a criminal
So set me free
If you're gonna say something
Say it to me
I know for sure
There's nothing more
For the very first time
Right here and now
There's something pure
For the very first time
It's not a chemical
It's not caffeine
It's something so much better
Than you ever seen
It's nothing physical
It's unintentional
The fire's still burning
If you know what I mean
I'm not stupid
I'm not smart
I'm not arrogant enough
To suffer for my art
I'm not a criminal
So set me free
If you're gonna say something
Say it to me
I know for sure
There's nothing more
For the very first time
Right here and now
There's something pure
A mongoose can smile at a cobra
But that cobra will always be a snake
Diamante can shine like a diamond
But you know, like I know
That rock will be fake
It's the real thing
The real thing
Nothing but the real thing
It's real
You can xerox the Mona Lisa
Deadpan Da Vinci in every detail
Might beat customs on a home-made visa
But false papers
Only gets you in jail
It's the real thing
The real thing
Nothing but the real thing
It's real
Life wears a smile on its face
But it comes with a sting in its tail
Make believe fables have their place
But only a fool. Only a fool
Believes fairy tales
I heard all the lies that they tell ya
"Phone me baby. The cheque's in the mail"
Well as fantasy. It may please ya
As the real thing
It does nothing but fail
It's the real thing
The real thing
Nothing but the real thing
It's real
It's the real thing
The real thing
Nothing but the real thing
When your world is full of strange arrangements
And gravity won't pull you through
You know you're missing out on something
Well that something depends on you
All I'm saying
It takes a lot to love you
All I'm doing
You know it's true
All I need now
There's one thing
Yes, one thing that turns this gray sky to blue
That's the look, that's the look
The look of love
That's the look, that's the look
The look of love
That's the look, that's the look
The look of love
When your girl has left you out on the pavement
(Goodbye)
When your dreams fall apart at the seams
Your reason for living, your reason for leaving
Don't ask me what it means
Who's got the look?
I don't know the answer to that question
Where's the look?
If I knew I would tell you
What's the look?
Look for your information
Yes, there's one thing, one thing that still hold true
What's that?
That's the look, that's the look
The look of love
That's the look, that's the look
The look of love
That's the look, that's the look
The look of love
That's the look, that's the look
The look of love
That's the look, that's the look
The look of love
That's the look, that's the look
The look of love
(Look of love)
If you judge a book by the cover
Then you judge the look by the lover
I hope you'll soon recover
Me, I go from one extreme to another
And though my friends just might ask me
They say, "Martin, maybe one day you'll find true love"
I say, "Maybe there must be a solution
To the one thing, the one thing we can't find"
That's the look, that's the look
Sisters and brothers
That's the look, that's the look
Should help each other
That's the look, that's the look
Ooh, ooh Heavens above
That's the look, that's the look
Hip hip hooray
That's the look, that's the look
Yippee ai yippee aiay
That's the look, that's the look
Be lucky in love
Tears for souvenirs
Tears are not enough
Tears for shields and spears
Tears are not enough
Searching for certainty
When it's such an unstable world
Searching for something good
And I'm looking for the real McCoy
Blueprint, that says that boy meets girl
Picture, girl meets boy
A blueprint that says that the boy meets the girl
Picture in a magazine
Yes you've shown your feelings
Yes you've shown you're tough
Said things worth believing
Tears are not enough
Tears are not enough
Tears are not enough
Yes you've shown your feelings
Yes you've shown you're tough
Said things worth believing
Tears are not enough
Tears are not enough
Tears are not enough
Slam that door, slap my face
But I don't love you anymore
Dry your eyes Sink or swim
You surmise you can't win
We all make great mistakes
Blueprint, that says that boy meets girl
Picture, girl meets boy
A blueprint that says that the boy meets the girl
Picture in a magazine
Yes you've shown your feelings
Yes you've shown you're tough
Said things worth believing
Tears are not enough
Tears are not enough
Tears are not enough
Would I lie
Should I lie
Could I lie to you?
Excuses had their uses
But now they're all used up, all used up
Excuses had their uses
But now they're all used up, all used up
Yes you've shown your feelings
Yes you've shown you're tough
Said things worth believing
Tears are not enough
Yes you've shown your feelings
Yes you've shown you're tough
Said things worth believing
Tears are not enough
Tears for souvenirs
Tears are not enough
Boy got paparazi, rich lead to slum
Let him think the grass is greener, it always is for someone
Pilgrims and penitents, saying it's the end of the world
Let them wallow in their sorrow
I want to live like there's no tomorrow, with you girl
World turns (world turns)
Spins round (spins round)
Goes round and around and around and around
I'm spellbound
All day (all day)
All night (all night)
Shake it down, shake it down, shake it down, shake it down
I'm spellbound
Sun probes and moon shots explore the universe
Outer space must be a great place
Yet we're stranded here on earth
With tit for tat killers, junkie gurus
Let them wallow in their sorrow
I want to live like there's no tomorrow, just with you
(I want to live, just with you)
World turns (world turns)
Spins round (spins round)
Goes round and around and around and around
I'm spellbound
All day (all day)
All night (all night)
Shake it down, shake it down, shake it down, shake it down
I'm spellbound (I'm spellbound)
Spellbound
World turns (world turns)
Spins round (spins round)
Goes round and around and around and around
I'm spellbound
All day (all day)
All night (all night)
Shake it down, shake it down, shake it down, shake it down
I'm spellbound
When we gonna learn, when we gonna learn to turn
When we gonna learn to turn this world around
When we gonna learn, when we gonna learn to turn
When we gonna learn to turn this world around
(when we, when we gonna learn, show me, show me when)
When we gonna learn, when we gonna learn to turn
I've been walkin' these streets so long
Singin' the same old song
I know every crack in these dirty sidewalks of Broadway
Where hustle's the name of the game
And nice guys get washed away like the snow and the rain
There's been a load of compromisin'
On the road to my horizon
But I'm gonna be where the lights are shinin' on me
Like a rhinestone cowboy
Riding out on a horse in a star-spangled rodeo
Like a rhinestone cowboy
Getting cards and letters from people I don't even know
And offers comin' over the phone
Well, I don't really mind the rain
And a smile can hide all the pain
But you're down when you're ridin' the train that's takin' the long way
And I dream of the things I'll do
With a subway token and a dollar tucked inside my shoe
There's been a load of compromisin'
On the road to my horizon
But I'm gonna be where the lights are shinin' on me
Like a rhinestone cowboy
Riding out on a horse in a star-spangled rodeo
Rhinestone cowboy
Gettin' cards and letters from people I don't even know
And offers comin' over the phone
Like a rhinestone cowboy
Riding out on a horse in a star-spangled rodeo
FADE
Like a rhinestone cowboy
Another dream that will never come true
just to compliment your sorrow
Another life that I've taken from you
a gift to add to your pain and suffering
Another truth you can never believe
has crippled you completely
All the cries you're beginning to hear
trapped in your mind, and the sound is deafening
Let me elighten you
This is the way I pray
[Chorus]
Living just isn't hard enough
Burn me alive, inside
Living my life's not hard enough
Take everything away
Another nightmare about to come true
will manifest tomorrow
Another love that I've taken from you
lost in time, on the edge of suffering
Another taste of the evil I breed
will level you completely
Bring to life everything that you fear
live in the dark, and the world is threatening
Let me enlighten you
This is the way I pray
[Chorus]
Return to me (x4)
Leave me no one
Turn to me
Return to me (x3)
Cast aside
Return to me (x4)
leave me no one
Return to me (x3)
You've made me turn away
Living just isn't hard enough
Burn me alive, inside
Living my life's not hard enough
They take everything from you
If I were to say to you
"Can you keep a secret?"
Would you know just what to do
Or where to keep it?
Then I say "I love you"
And foul the situation
"Hey girl I thought we were
the right combination"
CHORUS:
Who broke my heart?
You did you did
Bow to the target,
Blame cupid, cupid
You think you're smart
Stupid, stupid
Shoot that poison arrow though to my heart
Shoot that poison arrow
No rhythm in cymbals
No tempo in drums
Love on arrival
She comes when she comes
Right on the target
But wide of the mark
What I thought was the fire
Was only the spark
The sweetest melody
Is an unheard refrain
So lower your sights, yeah but raise your aim,
raise your aim
(Spoken)
I thought you loved me but it seems you don't care
I care enough to know I can never love you
CHORUS:
Who broke my heart?
You did you did
Bow to the target,
Blame cupid, cupid
You think you're smart
Stupid, stupid
Right from the start
When you knew we would part
Shoot that poison arrow though to my heart
My pride my joy
My chance to taste happiness
My girl my boy
Take me to the place I love best
All night I´ll pray
I´ll sing it like a symphony
Teach me each day
Simple things in life are free
Be my, be my, be my
Arc of divinity
Be my, be my, be my
Peace and tranquility
I find my smile
With you another Sinety
It drives me wild
I´m thankful for the world you give me
Much more than gold
More than jewels in Tiffany´s
Once more I´m told
Simple things in life are free
Be my, be my, be my
Arc of divinity
Be my, be my, be my
Peace and tranquility
Be my, be my, be my
Rick and wealthy canvas
Clustered up in jewels
Finding all your heavyweights
Are featherweights and fools
Broken all your promises
Broken all your paper plates
Clustered in gold
Crusted in gold
Heavy and hollow
Look at the shape we're in
Find us here
Paper thin
Heavy and humble
Look at the shape we're in
Find us here
Paper thin
In origami cities
In nations built on sand
Love got bent right outta shape
Things got outta hand
Polystyrene skylines
Papier mache smiles
Rusted and bruised
Tarnished and frail
Heavy and hollow
Look at the shape we're in
Find us here
Paper thin
Heavy and humble
Look at the shape we're in
Find us here
Paper thin, paper thin, paper thin...
Stars scrape the moon
And the moon scrapes the sky
We stand beneath
Wondering why
Stars scrape the moon
And the moon scrapes the sky
We stand beneath
Wondering why, wondering why
Paper buys the men
The men that make to bomb
The bomb that makes this world
Paper thin!
Money markets crumble
Gentle as a drum
But if you see me stumble, I'm
Paper thin!
Life is but a fragile thing
So delicate and pure
An accolade bestowed on us
Paper thin
So contemplate the skull
The skull beneath the skin
One day we all die, we're
Paper thin!
Bury your destruction
In your last battle hymn
The barriers between us, make 'em all
Paper thin! Paper thin!
Paper thin! Paper thin!
Underneath the paper moon
The sky is paper thin
Torn into a thousand shreds
So let the solar system in
Rick and wealthy canvas
Clustered up in jewels
Finding all your heavyweights
Are featherweights and fools
In origami cities
In nations built on sand
Love got bent right outta shape
Nothing ends as planned
And it's all - Paper thin
Nacen mis mejores madrugadas
de tu M de mujer maravillosa y mágica
nacen mis amores y alegrias
de tu A DE angel divino que me vino a visitar
Nacen tambien de tu L de locura
las más bellas lunas llenas que he podido yo mirar
y de tu C nace un cielo de cometas
y de estrellas que completan mi constelación de amor.
Te nace un mar con M de milagro
y un sol que sale por sorpresa desde el sur
puede escribir lo que soy tu abecedario
darme toda la poesía y corregir la ortografía, de mi amor.
Nace siempre simple y suavemente
de tu S de silencio esta adoración por tí
nace de tu S ese sumbido
que aún escuchan mis oidos de ese beso que te dí
y de tu vida nacen mis ganas de verte
el valor que me hace fuerte y una vida que vivir.
Te nace un mar con M de milagro
y un sol que sale por sorpresa desde el sur
puede escribir lo que soy tu abecedario
darme toda la poesía y corregir la ortografía, de mi amor.
Y ayudarme en la lectura, en las fraces de tu piel
acentuarme la ternura, de placer
poner el punto y aparte, el dolor que ya pasó
y escribir la introducción para este amor.
Te nace un mar con M de milagro
y un sol que sale por sorpresa desde el sur
puede escribir lo que soy tu abecedario
darme toda la poesía y corregir la ortografía, de mi amor.
Stop for a minute, dont make a move
Like you dont have much to prove
Standing there hands in the air
Like you dont have much to care
A you cant say what you B
I dont C what you see
I hear a meloDy
To drop with a mellow E
Hell not, never give a F
Never shit a G
Never dinged the H
Why you lieing to my I
DJ be careful with the K
Before everyday blaze L
The condemned will all condem and theM theN remember O
I used to want the P but id rather do not Q
I dont wanna hear R
I dont wanna hear S2
Sit back and sip T
It starts but not U
Or ill give you straight V
Single me double you (W)
No stress life from your X
Dont angle to no Y yes
Its only ever the way with your sket from a to Z

Ponte joya barata, anda descalza y con tacones
Ponte bien guapa pa ti, pa ti, pa ti
Soy aprendiz de bruja, de chamana, de Madrid de abuela
si la vida me deja
Que lo que se retiene nunca se tiene y lo que se deja libre siempre vuelve, no se ahoga
Ahora me encuentro bien y motivada y saco mi lengua a pasear
ah ah
nooo, nonono, no me acostumbro, nooo me acostumbro no...
No me acostumbro que no
A no poder beber en la calle, a tus tonterías, no me acostumbro a que no te calles, no me acostumbro a tanto, no me acostumbro a tanta velocidad a la hora de pensar un poquito
No me acostumbro a tanto cabron con k, no me acostumbro a tanta policía pervertida, no me acostumbro dime de quien te fia ya.
No me acostumbro a mirar y que no estén ni que las cosas me salgan bien
No me acostumbro a que medio mundo nos acostemos tranquilos y en el otro medio se mueran por miles los niños.
No!, que No me acostumbro
No me acostumbro a que intenten coartar mi libertad, que esa me la dieron al nacer mi mama, mi papa
No me acostumbro a que no haya casa pa todos cuando la tierra no es de nadie cojones, es de quien en ella nació, creció, vivió y la trabajooo
No me acostumbro a que haya que pagar pa que te entierren ah!
Estamos, pa que nos encierren
No me acostumbro vuestra demagogia, a vuestra trampa, vuestra mentira. Los mejores actores se juntan en política.
No me acostumbro a vivir sin sol, ol, ol...
No me acostumbro a vivir sin sol, ol, ol
Y a donde quiera me hecho una siesta, me monto una fiesta pero no te acerques que no me acostumbro a las falsas apariencias y puedo darte con la mano abierta.
No me acostumbro a que me quieran dar ordenes
Orden contra orden, desorden
Desordenando mi vida encuentro el orden que no tenia y camino pa delante
Mi camino no esta dibujado en el camino no tiene huellas, va campo a trave, va campo a trave, va campo a trave
Mi camino no esta dibujado en el camino no tiene huellas, va campo a trave, va campo a trave, va campo a trave
Y mientras no me acostumbro a tanta subordinación, mira que a todos nos cuesta saber esto y que no, a tanto mal phono, a tanta incomunicación entre tu y yo, entre tu y yo
No me acostumbro a que no veamos que el poder esta en nuestras manos, pero cerramos los ojos y chupamos el caramelo envenenao que nos dan no, nono
No me acostumbro a tanta mierda en los campos, a tantos hijos de puta del bote chupando, metiendo el ocico en otro comedero mientras el suyo lo tienen entero
No me acostumbro a tanto, no me acostumbro a tanto, no me acostumbro a tanto, a tanto muerto vertical.
Mi camino no esta dibujado en el camino no tiene huellas, va campo a trave, va campo a trave, va campo a traves
Mi camino no esta dibujado en el camino no tiene huellas, va campo a trave, va campo a trave, va campo a trave
Mi camino no esta dibujado en el camino no tiene huellas, va campo a trave, va campo a trave
