Don't you ever pretend
That we are more than friends?
Despite the metal and wires
I still have human desires
I'll wait here 'til the end
For my dividend
And when I turn off the lights
I'll wait here 'til the end
Over and over she burns my circuits
I feel fire rushing through my wires
I can feel all the things that we can't share
When I hear your voice
It fills me with noise
Was this meant to be?
Are you corrupting me?
Can't you just pretend
That we are more than friends?
Despite the metal and wires
I still have human desires
Over and over she burns my circuits
I feel fire rushing through my wires
I can feel all the things that we can't share
Over and over she burns my circuits
I feel fire rushing through my wires
I can feel all the things that we can't share
The satellites connecting us, protecting us
Our makers have neglected us
It's not their fault, it's just the way
Over and over she burns my circuits
I feel fire rushing through my wires
I can feel all the things that we can't share
La, la, la, la, la, la
La, la, la, la, la, la, la

I found this girl, same age as me
Something 'bout her seemed so sweet
Thought one day we could both meet
And not just chat about what's on TV
Met her brother, when he were cowboy
Met two others before a trouble
Those dark clouds seem to follow us all
Drown my girl and I started to fall
And I don't know, ohh
After the suicide, my girl's brother and I
Tried to stay dry from those dark clouds
Those dark clouds seem to follow us all
Drown my girl and I started to fall
And I don't know, ohh
Those dark clouds seem to follow us all
Drown my girl and I started to fall
And I don't know, ohh
Mum thinks that I've been doin' my homework
Dad don't know I, I haven't left the house all day
We both know that the brother had to go
[Incomprehensible]

All dressed up with somewhere to go
Got ten new messages on your phone
Keep trying to stop the night from falling to pieces
The night goes on and on and on and on
Where're you going and where's she gone
This whole night is just falling to pieces
And you go on and on and on
Talking shy through the night
Just trying to stop our arguments falling to pieces
You slag off America in the pub
Saying the war was shot
The world was a mess but his hair was perfect
The world was a mess but his hair was perfect
The world was a mess but his hair was perfect

The distance we have come has got me pinin'
For a touch up once familiar and excitin'
And though up yonder charts we might be climbing
To do it without you is very frightenin'
Now you've got a job you hoped and work for
We're both pretty much where we wanna be
We hardly get any time together
'Cos now we're both far too busy
Human all too human
I'm at the mercy of you
You got me right where you want me
There's nothing else I can do
Human all too human
I'm all tense and strained
Just can't bring myself to tell you
I can't keep livin' like this
Comin' back to the flat now seems so lonely
You're not there so it's just as I left it
The chair that you sit in is now empty
Its arms can't hold me like they're meant to
Human all too human
I'm at the mercy of you
You got me right where you want me
There's nothing else I can do
Human all too human
I'm all tense and strained
Just can't bring myself to tell you
I can't keep livin' like this
(Human all too human)
I need you, I need you, I seriously do
(Human all too human)
I'm not even drunk yet, I only had a few
(Human all too human)
I need you, I need you, I seriously do
(Human all too human)
I'm not even drunk yet, I only had a few
You got me right where you want me
There nothing else I can do
Human all too human
I'm all tense and strained
Just can't bring myself to tell you
I can't keep living like this
Human all too human
Human all too human
Human all too human

Baby, don't go
To the haunted hotel
Got a really bad feeling
In my lungs and my bones
Science can't save you
And your parents are away
On holiday in Mexico
Buying trinkets in the town
The haunted hotel
In a dream that I've been having
Has got me waking up sweating
Afraid to turn on the news
My internal dialog
Is rutted and confused
Trying to find some peace and quiet
But the damage was done
And my job in the city
Won't matter no more
When the network is down
And my flesh is all torn
Baby, stay here
In the shadow of the buildings
In familiar surroundings
In your safety zone
Every plane is a missile
Every suitcase a bomb
There's no reason in my head now

girl, i slip into your bedroom
the light from your mac cuts through the gloom, like
moonlight
its so fucking grim out there, lets hibernate
i'm sick of people obsessed with their clothes and hair
never leave london, new york or la
fucking lets hibernate, its cold and it is late
both know i shouldn't stay , i don't care what your
flatmates say
but yeah, theyre probably right
don't let me stay tonight, im drunk and you are tired
don't let me stay tonight, i'm hard and you are tired
i can crash out on your sofa, but thats not what i am
here for
we could do spoons or more, just don't show me the
fucking futon
i can hear it in your breathing, see your eyes move in
bliss
as you dream of our future kids, follow away the hazy
grey
say yeah, you're probably right, don't let me stay
tonight
i'm drunk and you are tired, don't let me stay tonight
yeah you probably had some bad advice, but your
flatmates on her prime
and ones got a moustache and she talks a lot of shite
i can feel something is growing and yeah oh to be gone
now the light from your mac is blinking although is
this not what i'm here for
but yeah you're probably right, don't let me stay
tonight
i'm drunk and you are tired, so let me stay tonight
i don't care what your flatmates say, you got that
naughty look in your eyes

So here you are in Hoxton two years on
Since you left that little no where that you're from
First few weeks you stayed with your ex,
same old arguments but without the sex.
Now you're renting down the road its not so cheap
Every weekend police stayed in the street
wirey looking kids looked up eyes down
we then biked to the arctic crown
Now they're sqauring up
"What phone you got bruv"?
Yeah they're gonna give you grief
You still get home in one piece.
In the bar your mates spark(?) celebrity
But you're not fussed by the gay guy on CBBC
Limos fury hen nights to the west end
the night is dragging its heals till the end
now he's in your face.
"Got any drugs on you mate"?
You get out for some peace
still get home by our feet
see now your home,
crashing out in your coat
Jet lagged from the night bus/bars?
Planning your escape
No point in trying to act all hard
as the kids take the piss when you walk past
No sane place left to go
your mates aren't in the start and yes I'll grow
Now you're tearing up
just need one night off
Get out of this in one peace
and come home for some sleep
Now you're home
crash out in your coat
jet lagged from the night bus

Some times you can't smell the shit that you're in it
I know your friends really think that you're winning
Look again and the news are grinning
California teeth
I'm your man, you're in it
By your pillow, I give the ___
Some times you can't smell the shit that you're in it
Some times you can't smell the shit that you're in it
You are exceptional
Being sexual
It's just a ritual
When we do to you, man!

Spent the night in three drinks time
Where the bars were full it was summertime
Punks were hangin out in the park
While someone practised electric guitar
We drank some homemade wine
Now my heads not straight
So I lean for a minute on a cemetery gate
Half expecting to catch a sight
Of the dead Russian soldiers marching into the night
La la la la la laaaaa
Feel the sea like the blood is shed
As the dawn rubs up against our aching head
Girls light up pull there hoods up tight
Stuck the money in your bra that you made last night
Well I spent the night in three drinks time
Bars were full there was no closing time
Punks comparing tattoos and their scars
Now everyone’s waiting for the band to start
La la la la la laaaaaa
(its alright if it all goes wrong in this cold lone
city no one knows where your from)
Woohoo woohoo woohoo
Oh the camera pulls away to show a hidden alleyway
Of broken bags and dreams by Turkish cafes
Where the dirty little pigeon played his inner puddle
By the drip drip drip of an emptying bottle
Of champagne perched on top of a half bombed church
Seeing angels who hear our wounds that make no sounds
The bird flies out to meet the hopes of the dream
And see what such grand stories
He’s in the right to the left wing
He tries so hard
But falls back to earth to the filth of the yard
The singers blood runs cold like the spree
But not this girl not when she was 19
It was 1989
Its alright if it all goes wrong in this cold lone city

22 grand job
In the city it's alright
22 grand job
In the city it's alright
22 grand job
In the city that sounds nice,
It's alright, it's alright
In the city it's alright
22 grand job
In the city it's alright
22 grand job
In the city it's alright
22 grand job
In the city that sounds nice,
It's alright, it's alright
In the city it's alright
This girl from work, looks alright
But the lights are too bright
Bloke in sales likes her too
What am I supposed to do?
But he's earning 28
And I'm on 22
It's alright, it's alright
In the city it's alright
22 grand job
In the city it's alright
22 grand job
In the city it's alright
22 grand job
In the city that sounds nice,
It's alright, it's alright
in the city it's alright
Down St. Earl Street, Thursday night
In the city that sounds nice
Talking shit with my colleagues
Did we do the same degree?
You've said less to me all week
Got to go home, in early
That's alright, that's alright
If the money is alright
22 grand job
In the city it's alright
22 grand job
In the city it's alright

In the city that sounds nice,
It's alright it's alright
In the city it's alright

Down with moonlight and the stars
Raised the search lights to the roost
[The clear forms(?)], hums of hearts
Beat of a beat no further proof
It´s not safe in your 4x4
Something dark is out there on the loose
Put up your windows and doors
Now we know that there was use
Somebody better call the cavalry
The terror is approaching rapidly
First they make
Then it goes to show you're all alone
You don't see me now, but I see you
I see through your
The walls you built can't keep me out
I'll destroy, fair at you
It´s not safe in your 4x4
Something dark is out there on the loose
Pull up your doors now we know there was no
Walking past the river at twilight
Dirty water flowing past the towers
Sun k
Say we never had it so good
You're the killer to be the juror
Ghost is going to be a solo
And it was...
I seeks
quarter of this
... can't see

Maybe lack of sleep, or last nights drinks
Now my eyes twitching, if that prick coughs again
In the back of my head
I'll smash your fucking face in
Ok, that's it, take a deep breath
I've got to get out of here
I've got to clear my head
I've got to clear my head
It's all these words, ideas and different arguments
Someone's always talking when I try to make some sense
From all this stress that is constantly going on
I just drift along with no focus or meaning
Lean back, stare up at the ceiling
I just drift along with no focus or meaning
I've got the same shirt on for two days in a row
With a soya sauce stain so everyone knows
Can shower and scrub
Still smell like the smoking bit in a Weatherspoons pub
I'll have my lunch early, get some sugar in my blood
My clothes still smell of last night
I've got to clear my head
It's all these words, ideas and different arguments
Someone's always talking when I try to make some sense
From all this stress that is constantly going on
I just drift along with no focus or meaning
Lean back, stare up at the ceiling
I just drift along with no focus or meaning
Why do these tourists walk so slow?
Especially now I've got somewhere to go?
And a posh sounding girl, going on and on
About her dog and Mr. Morgan
It sounds so funny when I hear you calling!
Mum be like 'boy what you doing?'
Please shut up and try and sound confident
In a crap job when your minicourse is done
It's all these words, ideas and different arguments
Someone's always talking when I try to make some sense
From all this stress that is constantly going on
I just drift along with no focus or meaning
Lean back, stare up at the ceiling

I wake up, didn't know what was going on
Pictures of home repeated again and again
'Electrical problems' is what they said on CNN,
Electrical problems repeated again and again
I tried to call your phone but the network was down
Something's happening
There was no one around so I tried your friends
But they're not answering
Just pick up the phone, tell me you're okay
Just a text anyway,
What's happening? I try your friends
But they're not answering
I walked to yours 'cause the tube was fucked
Lights were out I couldn't tell if you were on
TV's on, Tom Cruise crying on his father's bed
Reminds me what that French guy said,
"From news to movies all the crap with it"
Headlines to keep you excited
Like when Tom Cruise cries, it's all lies
I tried to call your phone but the network was down
Something's happening
There was no one around so I tried your friends
But they're not answering
Just pick up the phone, tell me you're okay
Just a text anyway,
What's happening? I try your friends
But they're not answering
Outro (x4)
I tried to call your phone
But the network's down

We danced together on the roof at the party,
5 stories removed from the trouble on the street
The sun arose revealing the goose bumps on your arms
A sign that we should move together somewhere warm.
We danced together(repeat)
We moved to the street where they tried to hold curfew
And ran among the debris as the bullets flew.
Helicopters circled overhead to get a better view
We found a doorway, fell in and I held you.
We danced together (repeat)
We didn't give a shit about what they would say...
And stayed up until the light turned our eyes grey.
We caned our money like it was our last day
Two fingers up at those who wont miss us when we pass
away
We danced together
We danced together on the roof
We danced together (repeat)
We didn't give a shit about what they would say...
And stayed up until the light turned our eyes grey.
We caned our money like it was our last day
Two fingers up at those who wont miss us when we pass
away
Away we didnt have no where to go
Waiting for the daylight to begin
Singer, save our secular souls
How can you have hope with no God?
Away we didnt have no where to go
Waiting for the daylight to begin
Singer, save our secular souls

We are the animals who have lost our hair
Retained some of our teeth and gained a choice
We'll chase food, money and sex until satisfied
And when its time to rest ask, "What's next?"
We are all animals
We are all animals
We are all animals
We are all animals
Well, it's hard enough to retain control
When our instincts are egging us on
Biologists and chemists
Reducing our souls
To four letters
And when we think about it
We're like a masterpiece
Whose glimpsed, the artist?
We are, the machines, carrying our various genes
Then discarded, when the job is done
We are the disciples, who have lost our way
Kicked from our pedestal when Darwin burnt the book
We are all animals
We are all animals
We are all animals
We are all animals
Well, it's hard enough to retain control
When our instincts are egging us on
Biologists and chemists
Reducing our souls
To four letters
Will genes replace Genesis?
We're like a masterpiece
Whose glimpsed the artist?
We like to think we're at a special place
The stars revolve around the human race
But we're just mammals
Just, primates
Like chimps or gorillas
We see the hair on our face
And look at another primate
You and I, we relate
We are all animals
We are all animals
We are all animals
We are all animals
We are all animals
We are all animals
We are all animals

I suggested at a truce, you spat out some excuse
You're violent, violent
They don't like you hanging round, you're bleeding on their ruby ground
You're violent, violent
Took you to a part of town, when amber calming people down
It's no use, you're violent
Just what everybody needs, another fucking gallery
You're violent, violent
We'll take your dreams or lack of money
We'll take your dreams or lack of money
(Violent)
We'll take your dreams or lack of money
(Violent, violent)
We'll take your dreams or lack of money
(Violent, violent)
You would always around, the dangerous part of town
For some excuse, for violence
Bumping, into those with bling bling, on their wrists
You're violent, violent
Mum said keep an eye on you, she's scared of what you might do
Your future, is over
I would be amazed if you made it past 25
You're violent, violent
We'll take your dreams or lack of money
We'll take your dreams or lack of money
(Violent)
We'll take your dreams or lack of money
(Violent, violent)
We'll take your dreams or lack of money
(Violent, violent)
Introduce you some new friends, that would be the end of them
You're violent, you'd eat them
Gave you a chance to be a part of their society
It's no use, you'd eat them
People would run away, when the [Incomprehensible]
You're violent, violent
Demonic males are bound to fail, in the ground or in jail
Violent, violent
We'll take your dreams or lack of money
We'll take your dreams or lack of money
(Violent)
We'll take your dreams or lack of money
(Violent, violent)
We'll take your dreams or lack of money
(Violent, violent)
We'll take your dreams or lack of money
(Violent, violent)
We'll take your dreams or lack of money

tho i been thinking about it, I live with the idea
the way we where would last forever
yeah it all seemed pretty clear.
but when the foundations shook
and the cracks started to appear
Saw the light in each others eyes
as the whole world disappeared.
My history has come and gone
I'll drive late at night
the only car on empty streets
no welcome sun in sight
If its trouble that you're looking for,
its trouble that you'll find.
Sometimes trouble finds you no matter where you hide
We got back from the party on a comedown for a week
Where we out there making history? Or was it just a
lack of sleep?
It seemed like we were waiting in the wings to take our
bow...
The outsiders are whispering this is our moment now.
My history has come and gone
sometimes I think I see
Your face in the rear view mirror, yeah,
looking back at me
If its trouble that you're looking for,
its trouble that you'll find.
Sometimes trouble finds you no matter where you hide
If its trouble that you're looking for,
its trouble that you'll find.
Sometimes trouble finds you no matter where you hide
It was important to us
to do more than just survive
surviving sometimes took up too much of our time
If its trouble that you're looking for,
its trouble that you'll find.
Sometimes trouble finds you no matter where you hide

Oh God I'm running late again
I don't believe this
Another Wednesday morning on the train to work
And my weekend's spread into the middle of the week
I'm boozing every night, 3 hours sleep
Check all the people that stare at my feet
Guy next to me pretends to read the Metro
Sort of bloke who calls everybody bro
But only met a black guy at Uni though
And the lady with the kid watches the guard meet the
train
Suspicious Eyes
(Always) looking for
Looking for the end
Backround: Clocks are tickin and you aint got time
Suspicious Eyes
(Always) looking for
Looking for the end
Backround: Clocks are tickin and you aint got time
A young Asian guy with a rucksack on his back
Jumps onto the tube, is he ready to attack?
God just imagine it being all over, trapped in the tube
with nowhere to go
All the smoke and confusion, stuck in this dark coffin
The man with the paper, he moves from his seat
Why did that kid stand so close to me?
I'm sick of them moaning that they're being picked on,
But it's them running round with the bombs
I'll grab the kids, leave London's Town
Join the white flight to Surrey and beyond
Suspicious Eyes
(Always) looking for
Looking for the end
Backround: Clocks are tickin' and you ain't got time
Suspicious Eyes
(Always) looking for
Looking for the end
Backround: Clocks are tickin and you ain't got time
These people are assuming who I am, but they're wrong
Got a beard and a bag so they think I got a bomb
I saw everyone's reaction soon as I stepped through the
door
All acting like they've never seen a brown person
before
The guy in front of me, he should be reading his paper
I'm checking my watch 'cos there's an interview that
I'm gonna be late for
Everytime I step on the tube, there's a dude in his
suit who ain't got no manners, doesn't he know staring
is rude?
And if you're so scared, move! I've just stopped caring
I'm off at the next stop, mate, just keep staring
Suspicious Eyes
(Always) looking for
Looking for the end
Backround: Clocks are tickin and you aint got time
Suspicious Eyes
(Always) looking for
Looking for the end
Backround: Clocks are tickin and you aint got time
Extra chrous (during chorus)
Clocks are ticking and we leave on time (repeat until

This is a true story
I just woke up, everything was fucked
From the night before, I was beyond repair
I had just woke up, everything was wrong
All the cats were dead and the phones were gone
I had just woke up like a heart attack
I weren't coming back and mum was dressed in black
I had just woke up, I had just woke up
Everything was fucked, everything was fucked
The guilt won't leave my circulation
The guilt won't leave my circulation
The guilt won't leave my circulation
The guilt won't leave my circulation
I had just woke up in someone else's bed
She was overweight, who did I do last night?
I felt paradise in between girl's thighs
It was quick and nice, the feelings cold as ice
I could hardly walk and I had the shakes
Had to eat some fruit or I was gonna faint
I had just woke up, I had just woke up
Everything was fucked, everything was fucked
The guilt won't leave my circulation
The guilt won't leave my circulation
The guilt won't leave my circulation
The guilt won't leave my circulation
I need one day a week for my cuts to heal
Take every Monday off with my blood shot eyes
If work only knew what I got up to
At the weekend they wouldn't speak to me
Or pretend to be my friends, take every Monday off
With my blood shot eyes, with my blood shot eyes
I had just woke up, I had just woke up
Everything was fucked, everything was fucked
The guilt won't leave my circulation
The guilt won't leave my circulation
The guilt won't leave my circulation

It's late but I'm not finished yet
I'm stuck like a half smoked cigarette
between mates and the chances of something happenin'
she's in a group, she might be leaving soon
for a club or just a taxi home
I'd like to be in a taxi by her
take a chance, make my move
could be knocked back and they would all see
my mates and her's, it will be ugly
or maybe it'll work and this night would be
more than just jabber to my mates and me
she's just leaving holes in your memory
Swing test to a heart in her sleeve
instead I'll be back at her under the sheets
with TV on and she would smell good
We'll wake up and go to work, the world would be alright for once
(That's the reason, that's the reason, that's the reason)
There ain't no home tonight
(that's the reason, that's the reason, that's the reason)
there ain't no home tonight
(that's the reason, that's the reason, that's the reason)
I asked her for a light
(that's the reason, that's the reason, that's the reason)
There ain't no home tonight
Yeah I have to use your toothbrush
I know that you may not like that much
but stop for a second Freda while you touch
most girl's magazines blah blah blaaah
(That's the reason, that's the reason, that's the reason)
I ain't going home tonight
(that's the reason, that's the reason, that's the reason)
I ain't going home tonight
(that's the reason, that's the reason, that's the reason)
I asked her for a light
(that's the reason, that's the reason, that's the reason)
I ain't going home tonight
(That's the reason)
Then you'd wake up
(that's the reason)
you were holding my hand
(that's the reason)
fall asleep again
(that's the reason)
big smile on my face
(That's the reason, that's the reason, that's the reason)
I ain't going home tonight
(that's the reason, that's the reason, that's the reason)
I ain't going home tonight
(that's the reason, that's the reason, that's the reason)
I asked her for a light
(that's the reason, that's the reason, that's the reason)

I'll meet you in West Germany
October 1983
I know that freedom was a lie
And your husband was a spy
You say that words are impotent
But they can help us pay the rent
I knew for sure there was nothing left
Except the vodka on your breath
We meet in Strasbourg
In Strasbourg
Dann sind wir Helden
We meet in Strasbourg
The courage that your father plucked
From inside a cattle truck
Will help us fix the exit polls
Our children must have rock 'n' roll
Surveillance cameras captured dawn
Breaking on the autobahn
I knew for sure our chance was blown
When rifles made us feel at home
We meet in Strasbourg
In Strasbourg
Dann sind wir Helden
We meet in Strasbourg
We meet in Strasbourg
In Strasbourg
Dann sind wir Helden
We meet in Strasbourg
Eins, zwei, drei, vier
Ideas can change the government
But they never listen to our arguments
On TV our friends smashed cement
And pulled down the bastards monuments
I went outside for a cigarette
I saw things I had tried to forget
The news showed us who we had left

In the kitchen of the party
I was sitting on your coat
Your finished sentences for me
Among all the things that you quote
If you're feeling ?, I'll guide you outside
Where the star of the sea YEAH!
If you really cried than I'll take you outside
Where the star of the sea were blinking at us
Your ? on the door
And the click of the light
And you're here to have a good time
Your car and your rent
And your money's been spent
And you're here to have a good time
Ever so
Ever so
Ever so nice
Never
Ever
Ever
Ever
Ever house the ?
On the bathroom of the party
You were holding on the cue
And we ? your ? and call for you
It was something in the ?
On the pocket of your coat
And if you're feeling down
Than I'll take you outside
Where the star of the sea were blinking at us
Your pressuring down
In the click of an line
And you're here to have a good time
Your rent was spent
And you money is gone then
You're here to have a good time
If you hang around bitchin in the kitchen
You're not gonna have a good time
If you hang around bitchin in the kitchen
You're not gonna have a good time
One more time
We can riot
We can turn all the ? ?
We have secrets behind our smile
But tonight, yeah tonight you're all mine
Say you´re riot
Cause you're cought in the line
I'll take you back on my back

Shoot to kill, I dropped a pill
Then I threw a bottle of drink down my throat
I went at first looking for assistance
T bone burst in with both guns blazing
T bone, clear out the till
Mother spilled her veils and her baby's milk
When I walk past in my balaclava
Stepping through glass and past a cadaver
Up to the counter, I could smell the sulfur
Honey, it makes me feel ill
T bone, clear out the till
I took two hills with both rifles empty
I ran for miles when T bone went to town
As he ran around, the people had their hands up
All that he found was his next victim
Honey, it makes me feel ill
T bone, clear out the till

No it's never easy to deal with a broken heart
When I found out what was happening
It nearly tore me apart
____, it's a mistake
Now we're nearly players
I was sleeping on tuesday
You shook me awake
Yeah
Now it's over
Yeah
Time to stop talking
Oh Yeah
I used my ways to get center stage
Just to get your attention
Noticed you were sleeping
Did you feel ashamed
I should have seen it all coming
Play around, expect nothing
First it seemed you'd get along
But now the time has long gone
Yeah
Now it's over
Yeah
Time to stop talking
Oh Yeah
We were never really at each others neck
So long, here I am out
I'm never worrying
Never meant for this to happen
Yeah
Now it's over
Yeah
Time to stop talking

When I was younger I felt so pure
I didn't know corruption waited for me
I tried to duck, I tried to freeze
Tried to bury my head in the sand
But the sand it turned to mud
And in the mud is where I got stuck
But the sand it turned to mud
And in the mud is where I got stuck
I've seen the older men who smelt like booze
[Incomprehensible] in their clothes
How could they face the morning
With their life and teeth in a mess
I tried cigarettes, I tried booze
I tried tip-ex and I tried glue
All my feelings and morals are wrong
'Cause all the chemicals that I have done
They turn them on and off
They turn them on and off
I need a cigarette
I need a drink
I need a cigarette
I need a drink
Something clicked and I fell off the edge
I bashed my head again and again
I lost myself in life's of shame
How could I face the morning clawing up at me?
I need a cigarette
I need a drink
I need a cigarette
I need a drink
I need a cigarette
I need a drink
I need a cigarette

I'm walking unknown territory, where the sun's not shining
There's nothing golden about Golden Lane
The smoke is heavy in my lungs and the adverts are working
I just can't sell for who or what I am
I don't wanna miss out on anything
At the same time I feel the need to retreat
Everything is temporary these days
Might as well go out for a third night in a row
Should I give my money to a good cause or save for a holiday?
In a couple of months I could be in paradise
But the girl at the bar is well nice and she's looking over
It's only right that I get the next round in
I don't wanna miss out on anything
At the same time I feel the need to retreat
Everything is temporary these days
Might as well go out for a fifth night in a row
Walk home, come down, retreat to sleep
Wake up, go out again, repeat
Walk home, come down, retreat to sleep
Hook up, again this time, next week
Walk home, come down, retreat to sleep
Wake up, go out again, repeat
Walk home, come down, retreat to sleep
Hook up, again this time, next week
I don't wanna miss out on anything
At the same time I feel the need to retreat
Everything is temporary these days
Might as well go out for a fifth night in a row
Walk home, come down, retreat to sleep
Wake up, go out again, repeat
Walk home, come down, retreat to sleep
Hook up, again this time, next week
Walk home, come down, retreat to sleep
Walk home, come down, retreat to sleep
Walk home, come down, retreat to sleep

You are not an open book
I can't do nothing 'bout that
But I'm worried, I'm overdrawn
What am I doing up at the witching hour?
Oh-o-oh-o
Oh-o-oh-o
Oh-o-oh-o
Oh-o-oh-o
Pick up a book, put down a book
Turn on the TV
It's 2 A.M. there's nothing on
I just need something to focus on
Oh-o-oh-o
Oh-o-oh-o
Oh-o-oh-o
Oh-o-oh-o
Things are going to slide
Slide out of control
I hope that you come back
I can't eat, can't sleep
When I close my eyes
The thought of you denies
Me, the rest, and the air
That I need
The longer you are far from me
The more I drift away
I didn't see the warning signs
I was falling through the cracks
Oh-o-oh-o
Oh-o-oh-o
Oh-o-oh-o
Oh-o-oh-o
Oh-o-oh-o
Oh-o-oh-o
Oh-o-oh-o
Oh-o-oh-o
You are not an open book

To me twelve months is a long, long time.
Someone suddenly changed their mind,
You were sendin' out,
Now it's just too late.
But I won't one night of sleep,
Worrying about what was mean't to be.
Yeah, 'cause leavin'
Is just a reason to celebrate.
I'm on a mission, I got a cause.
I'm gonna hit every rockin' little honky-tonk bar,
An' the way I'm thinkin',
It oughta be against the law.
Gonna see what kinda trouble I can find,
I'm on a head-on collision with a real good time.
I'm on a mission,
And it's all about forgettin' tonight.
Forty-hour week and I'm out the door,
Seems like all I've been workin' for,
Is that time when I can finallyjust cut loose.
I got a few good friends and they're waitin' to go.
Just gimme some time to change my clothes.
Till Monday mornin', there ain't nothin' I gotta do.
I'm on a mission, I got a cause.
I'm gonna hit every rockin' little honky-tonk bar,
An' the way I'm thinkin',
It oughta be against the law.
Gonna see what kinda trouble I can find,
I'm on a head-on collision with a real good time.
I'm on a mission,
And it's all about forgettin' tonight, that's right.
Ain't worried 'bout a five-day, no sleep, business
week, no escape, workin' girl blues.
Yeah, I'm a-just doin' what any other modern-day,
American woman might do.
I'm on a mission, I got a cause.
I'm gonna hit every rockin' little honky-tonk bar,
An' the way I'm thinkin',
It oughta be against the law.
Gonna see what kinda trouble I can find,
I'm on a head-on collision with a real good time.
I'm on a mission,

Don't talk rubbish to me
i use reason on my brain
it's those little superstitions
that get me through the stress and strain
i have made my contributions
and now and then i find
on the subject of my love life
i've been left behind
let's make the most of it
the time we've got together
quit all the secrets that are
choking up your heart
and tearing all the light from the stars
i've made some calculations
but will not put them to the test
it's those little superstitions
that cannot be laid to rest
our bodies are reacting
we're heated dangerously
leaving traces on each other
that the naked eye can't see
let's make the most of it
the time we've got together
quit all the secrets that are
choking up your heart
and tearing all the light from the stars
yeah, i say forever
and you just say whatever
but if you feel how i feel
then we'd stay together
let's make the most of it
the time we've got together
quit all the secrets that are
choking up your heart
and tearing all the light from the stars
yeah, i say forever
and you just say whatever
but if you feel how i feel

Lying underneath the cover
In my hand a perfect lover
No rejection, no contreception
No commitment, just ejaculation
Just got paid, I can't get laid
Just got paid, I can't get laid
Just got paid, I can't get laid
Just got paid, I can't get laid
Prostitution is my aim
Shagging in an alleyway
... just made my day (?)
No rejection, no contreception
No commitment, just ejaculation
Just got paid, I can't get laid
Just got paid, I can't get laid
Just got paid, I can't get laid
Just got paid, I can't get laid
Just got paid, I can't get laid
Just got paid, I can't get laid
Just got paid, I can't get laid
Just got paid, I can't get laid
Just got paid, I can't get laid

I'm just a man with a job
You can call me Harry, Jim or Bob
Three floors below from Picadilly
It's dark and chilly
Counting the cars with cocktail bars
Keeping a check on four-wheeled wrecks
Three floors above it's not the same
Picadilly, lighting up the rain
Here I'm a ghost in the cellar
The kind of fellow
Who's counting days that could be nights
Count on the man who's counting lights
Counting lights, every night, every kind of light
Little lights, bigger lights, any kind of light
Headlights from a limo, wakin' up the wino
Counting lights, every night, every kind of light
And every night, I'm counting lights
From left to right, I count the lights
I'm just a man with a map
My 'A to Z' is open on my lap
Lady I know where you're goin'
Your class is showin'
Your headlights polished to a 'T'
I'll count your lights, you count on me
Someday I'll leave, I believe
If I can find the trump card in my sleeve
Counting the boats in Monte Carlo
A silver arrow
Upon a cabbie cap
My 'A to Z' flat on it's back
Counting lights, every night, every kind of light
Little lights, bigger lights, any kind of light
Leave it to the navy, look here comes a chevy
Counting lights, every night, every kind of light
Little lights, bigger lights, any kind of light
And every night, I'm counting lights

Hello? Yes, I've already told your colleague,
but it's my iPod.
The battery only lasts for half the time it's supposed
to, and I, yes, I've tried turning it on and off.
Okay, well, tell me what to do, yeah, go to artists, B,
Babyshambles.
No, that still doesn't work, I'll try Bloc Party.
I've been on the phone for five minutes now, I need to
sort it out.
I'm not asking for a miracle.
Oi, yes, haven't I already told you, I've been on this
phone for five minutes now repeating this, but it's the
battery.
Yes, the battery.
What? I've reached the wrong person?
Ah, okay. Can you put me through to...yeah, hello.
Okay. Right, so, go to music, artists, scroll down,
Futureheads.
No, still nothing. S
till not working. Scroll to G, okay, The Go! Team.
I've been on this phone for ten minutes now, I need to
sort it out.
We're here to rock the telephone.
Yes, yes, hello, I've been on hold now for, I don't
know, fifteen minutes, okay, and I'm starting to get a
little bit annoyed.
I know, I know it's not your fault.
Um, yeah, that's fine.
Are you really in India?
Really?
Okay. So I'll try settings, turn off the backlight off,
I've tried that, artists, Kasabian.
I've been on the phone for ages now, I need to sort

every way that i tried and turned in
and although I call it something else
I am the fool sad, the one under your spell
And I guess for a single moment
I know your words were full of air
But I turned a blind eye and hope you'd grow to care.
Oh oh, and here we go again
just a little boy in a big man's frame
who's got me falling but I 'll never fall again
No oh oh
is this what you do to me?
feeding me with all the lies you told
No oh oh
is this something new to me?
I 'll see when the page unfolds
and you will never know
I should have known from the sound of your voice
that all the words were just pretty lies
but I soon came to see the truth over time
ohh but you just go your way
when I am left here hoping night and day
always dreaming to all we could have been
No oh oh
is this what you do to me?
feeding me with all the lies you told
No oh oh
is this something new to me?
I 'll see when the page unfolds
and you will never know
carry on
you will feel the same one day
carry on
and it'll hit you in the hardest way
and when it gets you
I will be long gone
No oh oh
is this what you do to me?
feeding me with all the lies you told
No oh oh
is this something new to me?
I 'll see when the page unfolds
and you will never know

I heard your name in autumn there
the first time in so long
i turn around to see if you were there
a shadow is all i found
so much i missed too much to tell
your love i missed the most
you know me best more than i knew myself
more than you could know
then why do those times come to mind when i thought they've been left behind
*oh this could be the worst part of it all
and it was me who walked away and chose to end it all of my heart ran dry
but i cant help but wonder why
i wonder if you think of me, the way i think of you
i'd love to know but no i never will expect i left alone
i know this was a choice of mine
but why it just still come to mind
back to *
but i cant help but wonder why
if i had tried hard enough
if i gotta buy with you love
cause i know that our love was never strong enough
nothing left for you and all my heart ran dry

I'm sittin here thinkin bout the specific situation
High super words have brought only complication
I should have know when you gave me the eye
You just had your way giving me the try
I know you gave me so many words but nothing real to say
And there's someting that I've found but it was just too late
It seems I only think of you it's a crazy thing with all you put me through
I dont't believe
It was me that made the first move
I dont't believe
That you did it to me once again
And I dont't believe
You could be something so good but
What more can I do
I leave it all to you ooh
It seems the less we speak the more I want you here with me
Something funny tells me that and I was gonna be
I pretended so I never cared
And forget those times that we both shared
So you can work your way to break another sorry heart
Like you did to me you planned it from the very start
I better get a grip of myself this is killing me with no one else
This is killing me with no one else
I dont't believe
It was me that made the first move
I dont't believe
That you did it to me once again
And I dont't believe
You could be something so good but
What more can I do
I leave it all to you ooh
I love when you avoid my calls
I love you were the one to start
And then end the start
Cause you're the one who gets me with your danger smile
But now you've gone and left me with no fingers
I dont't believe
It was me that made the first move
I dont't believe
That you did it to me once again
And I dont't believe
You could be something so good but
What more can I do

My world has
Found a different path
It's found a better light
Without him by my side
And I cannot take from what we had
All of just two times
His heart won over mine
And don't think the thoughts of the lost
And what's left in the dark will leave you so easily
It never did for me oh oh
It's far worse
To love then not at all
It's true, I hear it's so
At least you'll never know
What you've been missing
When you're forever always wishing
When you're forever always wishing...
And he was
The kind that you would dream
The kind that you would want
Or so it had seemed
Cause blind eyes
Lose you for a while
It lost me in a smile
Back with my friend denial
And don't think the thoughts of the lost
And what's left in the dark
Will leave you so easily
It never did for me oh oh
It's far worse
To love then not at all
It's true, I hear it's so
At least you'll never know
What you've been missing
When you're forever always wishing
When you're forever always wishing...
And naturally you find it hard to take
When you think you'll never feel the same again
And thankfully I'm not so hard to break
This could have broken me oh oh
It's far worse
To love then not at all
It's true, I hear it's so
At least you'll never know
What you've been missing
When you're forever always wishing

Oh yeh
My baby left my sad
He didn’t do nothing right
My baby left me
My baby left me dry
My baby left my sad
He didn’t do nothing right
My baby left me
My baby left me so dry to the bone
and he left me alone
Oh yeh
Consequences after murder(?)
Situations did you further
Close one eye and dream the rest
I was called the early learner
and you were the heart stirrer(?)
but this I never coulda guessed
You pulled on me until you knew I’d break
My baby left my sad
He didn’t do nothing right
My baby left me
My baby left me dry
My baby left my sad
He didn’t do nothing right
My baby left me
My baby left me so dry to the bone
and he left me alone
Oh yeh
So who’s to blame for the messy ending
you say it’s me but we’d be pretending
you work your dirt just like a pro
Cos you were a
freedom fighter, compulsive liar,
and a really good lucky trier
More than I had ever known
You pulled on me until you knew I’d break
My baby left my sad
He didn’t do nothing right
My baby left me
My baby left me dry
My baby left my sad
He didn’t do nothing right
My baby left me
My baby left me so dry to the bone
