Rubber band, you're like a rubber band-
You keep on snapping back at me,
so this is jealousy.
Hollow vase, you are a hollow vase,
and when you talk to yourself
you hear an answer back.
What type of world are you living in?
What type of sweet thing
would make the medicine better?
What type of world are you waiting for?
You give me one of those headaches
one drink won't take away.
Learning how to hate.
Rumour true, rumour false-
It's all the same to you
on cloud cockoo.
And every mistake that I've ever made
comes back to haunt me,
my own fools gallery.
What type of world are you living in?
What type of sweet thing
would make the medicine better?
What kind of world are you waiting for?
You give me one of those headaches
one drink won't take away.
Learning how to hate.
Our clam chowder comes without the powder-
It doesn't happen here,
this is a nice place.
(solo)
What type of world are you living in?

Learning how to hate.
Learning how to hate.

Blind barking Bobby he can rage The red mist come down and take centre stage And if he could see he'd knock you down And he may yet if you stick around
The sunlight only happens when he dreams The cold light of day is how it's gonna stay Some thing's only happen 'cause it rains It takes another kind for taking up the strain and Be Charlemagne

I gave you houses, I gave you furs,
I gave you them before you had the first.
I gave you kisses, I stroked your fur,
I love a woman now that you've had the first.
It's not you, I won't give you all.
It's not you, I won't give you all.
Get out of my face.
You took the houses, you took the furs.
You took another after you took the first.
You took my kisses, and those of fur,
now I love a woman and it's the first.
It's not you, I won't give you all.
It's not you, I won't give you all.
Get out of my face.
Get out of my face.
Get out of my face, out of my face.
(solo)
You know you have me to keep at will
whatever whets you fancy, whatever you will.
Took what you want, took what you will.
Take my schonker baby and drink your fill
It's not you, I won't give you all.
It's not you, I won't give you all.
It's not you, I won't give you all.
It's not you, I won't give you all.
Get out of my face.
Get out of my face.
Get out of my face, out of my face.

I make no promises,
I make no guarantees,
it makes no difference
when you're all at sea.
Try me for money,
you can try me for days,
I'll be indifferent
when you've none you can't pay.
Say something good to me,
say it's not always.
You've got the power,
now, now give us the means.
We can do it, we can do it,
all we need is the money.
Oh, you've got the power,
now, now give us the means.
You made your preference,
you made your guarantees
and it made no difference
we're still all at sea.
Tell me it's working now
you can tell me for days,
I'll be indifferent,
there's no justice this way.
Oh, say something good to me,
say it's not always.
You've got the power,
now, now give us the means.
We can do it, we can do it,
all we need is the money.
Oh, you've got the power,
now, now give us the means.
(solo)
Oh, say something good to me,
say it's not always.
You've got the power,

We can do it, we can do it,

Oh, you've got the power,
now, now give us the means.
Hey, you've got the power,
now, now give us the means.
Oh, you've got the power,
now, now give us the means.

Hey, hey what you say just might be true But I still can't take a chance on you if it's true Oh if it's true We've had our problems just trying to make the whole thing last You thought that we might break if we drove too fast Oh it is true Just like I used to do
I was right, you were wrong Who's picking holes in who? You were always a silly child I was right, you were wrong Oh look at you You were always a silly child
Hey, hey what you say just might be true Then there'll be nothing left of me and you when I'm through if it's true You are my target, I plan to make this last a while I could sit and watch you suffer with a smile Just like I used to do

Sometimes I wonder
at this shame I hide,
pare away the man
and find the worm inside.
Your mind's unclear
and instinct is a lie,
I hear what you say you'd do
and I wish it was true.
How can he take you
when you give yourself?
All the old lines
just to bind yourself,
then you wrap yourself around me
and whisper in my ear.
Where is your jealousy?
All I feel is fear.
I want to hear it,
and I want to see.
Let me watch you make love
and imagine that it's me.
(solo)
I want to hear it,
and I want to see.
Let me watch you make love
and imagine that it's me.

Listen to the money while it talks,
makes you feel used up and small.
You're caught between its hands.
Why did you try at all?
I listened and remembered what he said-
"What's good for me is good for you.
Be careful what you wish for-
It might come true."
That sometimes, at night,
when you're alone inside your bed,
you think about the things that have been said.
That sometimes your life begins to go
in directions you don't like.
You can't resist the flow.
If you listen then you might.
Then you might.
Listen once and listen good,
what's lost is never coming back.
The people that you trust
are the people you should watch.
Ohh and sometimes, at night,
when you're alone inside your bed,
you think about the things that have been said.
That sometimes your life begins to go
in directions you don't know.
Never knew what you would find.
If you listen then you might.
(solo)
Listen and remember what he said-
"What's good for me is good for you.
Be careful what you wish for-
It might come true."
That sometimes, at night,
when you're alone inside your bed,
you think about the things that have been said.
That sometimes your life begins to go
in directions you don't like.
You can't resist the flow.
If you listen then you might.
Then you might.

Seeing you,
I knew why I'd come so far,
and I thanked the stars
for leading me to you.
Your fairy tale prince,
I'm trying so hard
to make like an orchard
in my own back yard.
Oh the rain dribbles down
me in my beatitude,
my collar and shirt,
down legs to battered shoes.
Life is a breeze!
I'm just making memories,
good times or bad,
(I'm making, I'm making)
I'm just making memories,
you're the best that I've had.
And I'm still living
my teenage angst,
on the printed page
and in other ways.
So if I seem cruel,
it's only the fool in me,
that wants to try
and see if you'll cry.
Oh the rain dribbles down
me in my beatitude,
my collar and shirt,
down legs to battered shoes.
Life is a breeze!
I'm just making memories,
good times or bad,
(I'm making, I'm making)
I'm just making memories,
you're the best that I've had.
I'm just making memories,
good times or bad,
(I'm making, I'm making)
I'm just making memories,
you're the best that I've had.
(solo)
Uh I'm just making memories,
good times or bad,
(I'm making, I'm making)
I'm just making memories,
you're the best that I've had.
I'm just making memories,
good times or bad,
(I'm making, I'm making)
I'm just making memories,
you're the best that I've had.
No need to ask why
I'm mischief and joy,
I'm still the tall boy
who just wouldn't crawl.
I'm just making memories,
good times or bad,
no need to ask you're the best,
you're the best that I've had.
(I'm just making memories)
I'm just making memories
you're the best that I've had.
I'm just making memories,
good times or bad,
(I'm making, I'm making)
I'm just making memories,
you're the best that I've had.
I'm just making memories,
good times or bad,
(I'm making, I'm making)
I'm just making memories,
you're the best that I've had.

So many problems,
so many dreams, so many hangdog faces.
So many ways to say
"oh! I'll never see another day
with you in it".
So listen while you can,
the first time that you ever have.
I just grew tired,
grew tired, grew tired of it.
I just grew tired,
grew tired, grew tired.
I can count your saving graces on two fingers.
Love them, sit on them.
You told me that you're not afraid to die.
And dying's easy, life that's hard.
I don't believe a word.
So listen while you can,
the first time that you ever have.
I just grew tired,
grew tired, grew tired of it.
I just grew tired,
grew tired, grew tired.
So listen while you can,
the first time that you ever have.
Life's not easy,
but it's all you have.
(solo)
So I can count on you.
Don't ever, never, never, never, never
let it split away.
And dying's easy?
I think I'll try it out today!
(I just grew tired),
grew tired, grew tired of it.
I just grew tired,
grew tired, grew tired.
I just grew tired,
grew tired, grew tired.
I just grew tired,
grew tired, grew tired
of love, love, love, love, love, love, love.

Gone and gone for good,
grown up and slipped away.
Passed from now to then
like a river going by
to rush headlong into the sea.
She hears the band and play "Ave Lolita".
She sees her future coming to her in a flash-
starts counting hours, starts counting minutes,
and walks the line she still can't define-
Ave Lolita.
If you sleep at all, sleep well
for the coming day won't spare you.
If fear is the key,
you are lost outside the door
and you've been there before.
When you heard the band play "Ave Lolita"
she caught her future rushing by her in a flash.
Start counting hours, start counting minutes
and walk the line while there's still time-
Ave Lolita.
Watch the sky for details,
watch the distance for fire,
fiery pinpricks our of reach,
I can't hold the lines of words to tick them off,
but it won't be long now...
She hears the band play "Ave Lolita",
she sees her future coming to her in a flash-
starts counting hours, starts counting minutes,
and walk the line she still can't define-
Ave Lolita.

The walls are closing in. And who will drive you out? Who will clear your dreams of your heart's debris?
There's no-one, none, nothing. In the fullness of time.
But oh such a stupid boy to wear his pain like a badge. I though I mattered. My mistake.
There's no-one, none, nothing. In the fullness of time.
So many

It's time to shout, it's time to let them know what we're about As winter kisses frosty cold and hard to hands I'll waste not an ounce of my time Now that summer's in time To hold back the night Keep me up from the fire Back to the wheel.
Don't look down, Don't ever let them know you're down For if we are, we are If we're not, so what ? I'll waste not an ounce of my time Now that summer's in time To hold back the night Keep me up from the fire Back to the wheel.

I never courted suffering,
never valued paid,
I'm not cruel, or a fool
just not used to it!
And now our fingers stay where
once they hurried past.
We've the time and the place,
let's get used to it.
And never feel lonely (I don't want to)
and never stay hungry (I don't care to)
you are what people say you are,
whatever people say you are,
how can you stay happy?
We never would admit,
no, not to a man,
if you can't
get what you want, get what you can.
But you always made me feel
like I've just recieved
and invite
to last week's Halloween.
And never feel lonely (I don't want to)
and never stay hungry (I don't care to)
you are what people say you are,
whatever people say you are,
how can you stay happy?
If I'm wrong I will take it all back,
if you ask.
It's the price of good fortune I ask-
if I can, if I can.
(solo)
And never feel lonely (I don't want to)
and never stay hungry (I don't care to)
you are what people say you are,
whatever people say you are,
how can you stay happy?
Oh, and never feel lonely (I don't want to)
and never stay hungry (I don't care to)
you are what people say you are,
whatever people say you are,
how can you stay happy?, stay happy?

I think my heart must be made of clay,
'cause everyone said it would be broken someday.
And now I've come to that fateful day,
so I sit on the floor
with my head in my hands.
And don't tell me how to make it pay,
I write a new song every day.
I just wish I was made of wood,
I might not feel pain,
even if I should, even if I should,
if I should.
The sweetest smile that ever did
melt the pats in the butter dish,
and if you could have believed in me,
I swear to God
I'd have made damn sure.
Our hearts were warm, and glad with wine.
I'd keep the doors locked all the time.
I just wish I was made of wood,
You might not seem glad,
even if you should, even if you should,
if you should, if you should,
if you should.
(solo)
I think my heart must be made of clay,
'cause everyone said it would be broken someday.
Seems like I have come to that fateful day,
so I sit on the floor
with my head in my hands,
with my head in my hands.
If I should, if I should,
if I should, uh if I should.

Do you remember
the way things used to be?
Our lives untainted by memory,
and we laughed, and we cried,
and we played, and we fought,
never stopped to think,
oh, never stopped to think
that this could be
(this could be the big one)
oh, this could be the big one.
Oh, this could be
(this could be the big one)
oh, this could be the big one.
Explain just how we came to part,
I never really wanted to.
And now we flounder
in the wake of those days,
we wish we'd never found out each other's ways,
and we laugh, and we flirt,
and we cried, and made love,
could it be the same?,
how could it be the same?
Oh, this could be
(this could be the big one)
this could be the big one.
Oh, this could be
(this could be the big one)
this could be the big one.
Oh, tell me how we came to part,
I never really wanted to,
never wanted to.
(solo)
Oh, tell me how we came to part,
I never really wanted to.
Oh, this could....
Oh, this could be
(this could be the big one)
oh, this could be the big one.
Oh, this could be
(this could be the big one)
this could be the big one.
This could be
(this could be the big one)
the big, big, big, big, big one.
Oh, this could be
(this could be the big one)
this could be the big one.
(this could be the big one)
this could be the big one
This could be
(this could be the big one)

Well now, you
wouldn't stay
and there's not much more that I can say
but your lips
that I kissed
will never go away
from my memory
they will remain with me.
You were tied, now you're gone,
there was time, now it's gone.
Is this the best
we can do?
Have we come as far as we intend to?
This was comedy,
it is true,
I was not innocent under you.
Ah my memories,
they will remain with me.
You were tied, now you're gone,
there was time, now it's gone,
now it's gone.
You were tied, now you're gone,
there was time, now it's gone,
now it's gone.
Ah my memories,
they will remain with me.
You were tied, now you're gone,
there was time, now it's gone,
now it's gone.
You were tied, now you're gone,
there was time, now it's gone,
now it's gone, now it's gone.

Little queen beware, fashion tempers flare,
and they light up with a brilliant glare
page after page, after page, after page,
after page.
A hollow vase only costs ten pounds
but an empty vessel makes the loudest sound,
and you have to get heard in this loudest of towns-
or go under.
We don't care if you can't pay,
we don't care what you've got to say,
we don't hear when you cry out-
Our smiles are hollowed out.
Let's talk about me.
(Vamos a hablar de ti)
Let's talk about me.
(Vamos a hablar de ti)
The people look like ghouls in the neon light,
get the big city blues every single night.
World gone crazy? It was never sane- not now,
not ever.
Bars full of couples not talking to each other,
seeking solitude in the company of others.
"We're not in love- we just can't resist each other
at playtime.
We don't care if you can't pay,
we don't care what you've got to say,
we don't hear when you cry out-
Our smiles are hollowed out.
Let's talk about me.
(Vamos a hablar de mi)
Let's talk about me.
(Vamos a hablar de ti)
Let's talk about me.
(Vamos a hablar, hablar, hablar)
Let's talk about me.

Oh, let's talk about me, me, me, me, me, me.
Oh (Vamos a hablar de mi)
Let's talk about me.
(Vamos a hablar, hablar
Vamos a hablar de mi
Vamos a hablar, hablar, hablar
Vamos a hablar de mi
Vamos a hablar de mi)

You're a big girl now
with a big girl's needs
and a big girl's dreams
and promises.
Why don't you accept yourself,
accept your desires
and meet your needs,
deny your problems?
And don't
cry, cry, don't cry,
oh, you're a big girl now.
It's so hard to be humble
when you know you're worth more
to live and learn
is all we can hope for.
And attraction of pasts
like the blindness of the summer sun
oh, but what will you do,
oh, when the rain comes through.
If it's to be then don't
cry, cry, don't cry,
And don't
cry, cry, don't cry.
Why don't you accept yourself,
oh, accept your desires
and meet your needs,

If it's to be then don't

And don't

Don't cry.

You should see my world
how it crumbled inside.
You should see my world
from the inside.
Walls can have ears
but what about you.
It's not over,
it's not over yet.
Oh, I'll hold you in my arms,
I'll hold you in my heart,
I'm holding out for love.
Oh, I'll hold you in my arms,
I'll hold you in my heart,
I'm holding out for love.
But the truth of if is
I was never so brave
as to speak my own mind
to misbehave.
Mouths can tell lies
and they often do.
It's not over,
it's not over yet.
I'll hold you in my arms,
I'll hold you in my heart,
I'm holding out for love.
I will hold you in my arms,
I'll hold you in my heart,
I'm holding out for love.
But what if it's true,
what if it's true,
But what if it's true,
what if it's true.
You should see my world
how it crumbled inside.
You should see my world
from the inside.
Say it's a good one,
I so rarely do.
It's not over,
it's not over yet.
I will hold you in my arms,
I'll hold you in my heart,
I'm holding out for love.
I will hold you in my arms,
I'll hold you in my heart,
I'm holding out for love, for love.
I will hold you in my arms,
I will hold you in my heart,
I'm holding out for love, for love.
But what if it's true.
It is true.
I will hold you,
I will hold you.
(Whatever it takes to get through)
Hold you, hold you.
Hold you, hold you.
I will hold you in my arms,
I'll hold you in my heart,
I'm holding out for love.
I'll hold you in my arms,
I'll hold you in my heart,
I'm holding out for love.
I will hold you in my arms,
I'll hold you in my heart,
I'm holding out for love.
I will hold you in my arms,
I'll hold you in my heart,
I'm holding out for love, for love.
I'll hold you,
I will hold you,
I will hold you,
I will hold you.

Here we are,
between the towers of
love and devotion.
Why can't we
seem to be
what we want to be?
Always placing obstacles
in our path, in our way.
I try to ride the chill in me,
but here it comes again.
(Here it comes again,
here it comes again,
play with me,
tearing all my world apart)
Here it comes again.
(Here it comes again,
here it comes again,
play with me,
tearing all my world apart)
Here we are,
and here we'll stay,
wrapped up in an ocean,
a veil of tears,
imagined fears,
and God knows why.
But whatever I try to do
it goes in right,
and comes out wrong.
I try to ride the chill in me,
but here it comes again.
(Here it comes again,
here it comes again,
play with me,
tearing all my world apart)
Here it comes again.
(Here it comes again,
here it comes again,
play with me,
tearing all my world apart)
(solo)
Whatever I try to do
it always goes in right,
and comes out wrong.
I try to ride the chill in me,
but here it comes again.
(Here it comes again,
here it comes again,
play with me,
tearing all my world apart)
Here it comes again.
(Here it comes again,
here it comes again,
play with me,
tearing all my world apart)
Here it comes again.
(Here it comes again,
here it comes again,
play with me,
tearing all my world apart)

Now and again
an innocent shines
out from the crowd
and scenes
that roll down the streets
the inhuman streams,
down from the trees,
and up from their knees.
Jump overboard,
strike for the shore,
leave your clothes to the fire.
Counting the days your innocence paid.
You can play it, re-arrange it,
you can change your mind.
Tell me how
the horrors escape
as we follow their trail
'til dark.
Once for the need,
twice for the thrill,
into the groves,
into the groves.
Wash up ashore,
follow the call,
leave your debts behind you.
Counting the ways that innocence pays.
You can play it, re-arrange it,
you might change your mind.
(solo)
In the big city heat
a photo can fade,
who were the saints
of old?
Keep a brush at your heels
and cover your tracks,
aim for the higher
ground in the field.
Jump overboard,
strike for the shore,
leave your clothes to the fire.
Counting the days your innocence paid.
You can play it, re-arrange it,
you can change your mind.
Change your mind.
Change your mind.
Change your mind.

It's late an I'm drunk and my stomach
sounds like the hot water pipes in the attic room,
and who'd have though the sky could hold
so much snow inside of it just to let it go.
The stars may shine and the moon
may be blue, but what comes,
comes from you?
I was meant to take you there
We could pack our bags and be
on our way.
Hold on to your childlike fears
all your worries, tantrums, tears
I don't need to know
The stars may shine and the moon
may be blue, but what comes,
comes from you?
So don't turn around
'cause that's paradise lost.
Don't turn away,
mersey rose.
Nothing good could last forever.
No, don't turn around
'cause that's paradise lost.
The very place
that we chose.
Only dreams could last forever.
Hold it now,
there is something you should know
I was never turn away from you
My intentions are clear,
that's the only truth.
My only wish is never to lose.
So don't turn around
'cause that's paradise lost.
Don't turn away,
mersey rose.
Nothing good could last forever.
And don't turn around
'cause that's paradise lost.
The very place
that we chose.
Only dreams could last forever.
Don't turn around.
Don't turn away,
mersey rose.
Only dreams could last forever
Don't turn around.
Don't turn away,
mersey rose.
Only dreams could last forever
Don't turn around,
'cause that's paradise lost.
Only dreams could last forever.
Don't turn away,
this paradise lost.
Nothing good could last forever.

(Water On Snow)
Did I sleep? Do I dream of cold, silent water
So deep and dark
And the wires are singing our song?
Our song
As we lay back and stared into cloudless skies
And the stars up there
The wires are singing our song
The wires are singing our song
Your face, now so plain, once was so lovely
A beautiful refrain, dust with stars
But your smile now in disguise became a flat line
And to never love again like you did before
Was all
Why go on with it, why go on with it?
Why, to let it flow, like water on snow?
I know what you want, what you are thinking
To drift beyond the pain and out of reach
To sit, be safe and warm inside your sorrow
And listen to the slow, slow morse tapping of the rain
But it says:
Why go on with it? Why go on with it?

It is true maybe
you never ask for much
but when your heart's been broken
into tiny little pieces,
who will pick them up?
You know who'll pick them up.
(That's just like love to see you through)
You know who'll pick them up.
(That's just like love to see you through)
You live with the silence,
it wraps your every mood
with tender velvet fingers
and they cling just like the ivy
on a sunny roof,
if that's what it takes to prove.
That you live with your weakness,
you face it every day,
but when you play the let's-make-lover's game
someone has to pay,
and you know who'll pay, and pay and pay.
(That's just like love to see you through)
You know who's gonna pay and pay and pay.
(That's just like love to see you through)
A little of friend, a devil as friend,
a little of friend we'll call him love.
If your face hurts
feel like a bruised dog in a dusty street,
but you've got lipstick on your feet.
Lose your sad and wizened stare,
reach out and I'll be there,
I will set your senses alight
and blow them out one by one.
(That's just like love to see you through)
And blow them out one by one.
(That's just like love to see you through)
You know who's gonna pay,
who pay and pay and pay and pay.
(That's just like love to see you through)
A little of devil, a friend, we'll call him love.
(That's just like love to see you through)
A little of devil, a friend, we'll call him love.
(That's just like love to see you through)
A friend, we'll call him love.
(That's just like love to see you through)
