The human leg is the entire lower extremity or limb of the human body, including the foot, thigh and even the hip or gluteal region; however, the precise definition in human anatomy refers only to the section of the lower limb extending from the knee to the ankle.
Legs are used for standing, walking, jumping, running, kicking, and similar activities, and constitute a significant portion of a person's mass.
In human anatomical terms, the leg is the part of the lower limb that lies between the knee and the ankle, the thigh is between the hip and knee and the term "lower limb" is used to describe the colloquial leg. This article generally follows the common usage.
The leg from the knee to the ankle is called the cnemis /ˈniːmɪs/ or crus. The calf is the back portion and the shin is the front.
Evolution has provided the human body with two distinct features: the specialization of the upper limb for visually guided manipulation and the lower limb's development into a mechanism specifically adapted for efficient bipedal gait. While the capacity to walk upright is not unique to humans, other primates can only achieve this for short periods and at a great expenditure of energy. The human adaption to bipedalism is not limited to the leg, however, but has also affected the location of the body's center of gravity, the reorganisation of internal organs, and the form and biomechanism of the trunk. In humans, the double S-shaped vertebral column acts as a shock-absorber which shifts the weight from the trunk over the load-bearing surface of the feet. The human legs are exceptionally long and powerful as a result of their exclusive specialization to support and locomotion — in orangutans the leg length is 111% of the trunk; in chimpanzees 128%, and in humans 171%. Many of the leg's muscles are also adapted to bipedalism, most substantially the gluteal muscles, the extensors of the knee joint, and the calf muscles.
Animalia
Humans (known taxonomically as Homo sapiens,Latin for "wise man" or "knowing man") are the only living species in the Homo genus. Anatomically modern humans originated in Africa about 200,000 years ago, reaching full behavioral modernity around 50,000 years ago.
Humans have a highly developed brain and are capable of abstract reasoning, language, introspection, and problem solving. This mental capability, combined with an erect body carriage that frees the hands for manipulating objects, has allowed humans to make far greater use of tools than any other living species on Earth. Other higher-level thought processes of humans, such as self-awareness, rationality, and sapience, are considered to be defining features of what constitutes a "person".
Humans are uniquely adept at utilizing systems of communication for self-expression, the exchange of ideas, and organization. Humans create complex social structures composed of many cooperating and competing groups, from families and kinship networks, to nations. Social interactions between humans have established an extremely wide variety of values, social norms, and rituals, which together form the basis of human society. With individuals widespread in every continent except Antarctica, humans are a cosmopolitan species. As of November 2011[update], the human population was estimated by the United Nations Population Division to be about 7 billion, and by the United States Census Bureau to be about 6.97 billion.
A leg is a weight bearing and locomotive structure, usually having a columnar shape. During locomotion, legs function as "extensible struts" - the combination of movements at all joints can be modeled as a single, linear element capable of changing length and rotating about an omnidirectional "hip" joint.
As an anatomical animal structure it is used for locomotion. The distal end is often modified to distribute force (such as a foot). Most animals have an even number of legs.
As a component of furniture it is used for the economy of materials needed to provide the support for the useful surface, the table top or chair seat.
Many taxa are characterized by the number of legs:
In tetrapod anatomy, leg is used to refer to the entire limb. In human medicine its precise definition refers only to the segment between the knee and the ankle. This segment is also called the shank, and the front (anterior) of the segment is called the shin or pretibia.
In bipedal tetrapods, the two lower limbs are referred to as the "legs" and the two upper limbs as "arms" or "wings" as the case may be.
Take the lovebird
Kiss the stranger
Leave the trailer
Take the car
Feel the sound rushing over you
See my finger
The way it points you
Follow blindly
Into the road
Feel the sound rushing over you
See the stranger
Getting nearer
Iron teardrop
Collision course
Feel the sound rushing over you
See the blood now
Overflowing
No more compression
Compression done
Feel the sound rushing over you
I saw it happen
You saw it happen
We saw it happen
It can't be true
The stranger crashing into you
I saw it happen
You saw it happen
We saw it happen
It can't be true
(Repeat four times) The stranger crashing into you
Baby, when I think about you
And that's when I think
I think about gold
You remind me of gold
And when I see the sunrise in the sky
And when I hear your brakes come squealing by
I forget
Everything I've been told
Chorus:
You remind me of gold
You remind me of gold
You remind me of gold
Baby I always think about you
I think of the life and glory you hold
You remind me of gold
And even though there was no sun today
And though you are a thousand miles away
You remind me of gold
The way it was in the past
A long, long time ago
Before staff levels dropped
They used to listen to the radio
And listen to the DJs talk
About the songs they didn't know
As if it really mattered
Chorus :
Hit-pick or phone-in show
I don't want you to go tonight
Ten thousand watts of power
News headlines on the hour tonight
Our music beats the best
You just don't need the rest tonight
Once I couldn't care at all
But I can feel the ratings fall tonight
And 20 years ago
No-one seemed to care
The people must have known
The DJ's role was only there
To fill in space between the songs
That talk of love and other things
As if they didn't matter
Automatic stations came
And sent them all away
And now I'm left alone
I haven't got a word to say
And you're the one who makes the choice
To turn me on or turn me off
But now it really matters
(Chorus)
Hit-pick or phone-in show
I don't want you to go tonight
Ten thousand watts of power
News headlines on the hour tonight
Our music beats the best
You just don't need the rest tonight
Ten thousand watts of power
Can you feel it when
your throat dries?
Can you see it in the night sky?
Just a mumble round at tea time
Smile
When I'm watching you
When I was a child
We were living in fear
Living in fear
When I was a child
Just a light year from here
Living in fear
Worlds may shatter
Years don't matter
Words came back to haunt you
Worlds may shatter
Years don't matter
Words came back to haunt you
Friends past missing
Reminiscing
Words came back to haunt you
Tolerating propaganda
And your girlfriend, Alexandra
With her secret memoranda
Signs
For an interview
Searching for the light
In the world of the blahs
Masquerading as stars
How can this be right?
You've been going too far
Leaving conscience ajar
Worlds may shatter
Years don't matter
Words came back to haunt you
Friends past missing
Reminiscing
Words came back to haunt you
When I was a child
We were living in fear
Living in fear
Worlds may shatter
Years don't matter
Words came back to haunt you
Worlds may shatter
Years don't matter
Words came back to haunt you
Friends past missing
Reminiscing
Words came back to haunt you
Worlds may shatter
Years don't matter
Words came back to haunt you
Friends past missing
Reminiscing
I only knew you for a while
I never saw your smile
'Til it was time to go
Time to go away (time to go away)
Sometimes itÕs hard to recognise
Love comes as a surprise
And itÕs too late
ItÕs just too late to stay
Too late to stay
WeÕll always be together
However far it seems
(Love never ends)
WeÕll always be together
Together in Electric Dreams
Because the friendship that you gave
Has taught me to be brave
No matter where I go IÕll never find a better prize
(Find a better prize)
Though youÕre miles and miles away
I see you every day I donÕt have to try
I just close my eyes I close my eyes
WeÕll always be together
However far it seems
(Love never ends)
WeÕll always be together
Ah ah
Here's a song
About living in the past
If it was so good then
How come it didn't last?
If it helps you
I'll put it in a phrase
Those were the times
But these are the days
These are the days x4
The times you're smiling back on
Had that great sitcom
It hardly compensated
For the terror of the bomb
Let me help
'Cause you're looking through a haze
Those were the times
These are the days
These are the days
Hey hey hey
These are the days
Can you hear me now?
These are the days
Look around look around look around
These are the days
These are the days
Hey hey live today
These are the days
It's time to put the past away
These are the days
The more you do the more you say
These are the days
The more I need to get away
You're longing for a time
there never was
Now tell me the truth
You're looking for the reason
It's because
You're fighting for youth
But if I have to listen any more
To fantasy talk
Or any other bug you have
I'm leaving
Now I'm not saying
Everything is really great
Hey hey hey
After sixteen years
Of legalised class hate
Why waste time
Looking back for things to praise?
Those were the times huh
But these are the days
These are the days
Looking back in history
These are the days
Time to get contempory
These are the days
"You will notice that very appropriately I'm left-handed"
This man I saw
Was happy then
And then loved
And on TV well
But now he cried
And he cried
And of course he had to want to die
But he watched him
Which made it worse
Of course
Of course
Of course
Of course
You understand
He didn't know
That it was someone else
Who looked the same
A similar voice taken
The clothes changed
But the face retained
Surrounded by
Old imagery
His brain bypassed
The eternal moment laid bare
No time to heal
Continual pain
Continual pain
Continual pain
Continual pain
I spent a bad day yesterday
With a man and a picture of himself
The tape was running and the TV turned
Take time to see the wonders of the world
To see the things you've only ever heard of
Dream life the way you think it ought to be
See things you thought you'd never ever see
Take a cruise to China or a train to Spain
Go round the world again and again
Meet a girl on a boat meet a boy on a train
And fall in love without the pain
Refrain :
Everybody needs love and adventure
Everybody needs cash to spend
Everybody needs love and affection
Everybody needs two or three friends
Chorus :
These are the things
These are the things
The things that dreams are made of
These are the things
These are the things
The things that dreams are made of
Take a lift to the top of the Empire State
Take a drive across the Golden Gate
March, march, march across Red Square
Do all the things you've ever dared
(Refrain)
(Chorus)
Like fun and money and food and love
And things you never thought of
These are the things
These are the things
The things that dreams are made of
New York, ice cream, TV, travel, good times
Norman Wisdom, Johnny, Joey, Dee Dee, good times
Put your hand in a party wave, pass around
Make a shroud pulling combs through a backwash frame
Find the copies in a carbon mount, pass around
Stroke a pocket with a print of a laughing sound
Get around town, get around town
Where the people look good, where the music is loud
Get around town, no need to stand proud
Add your voice to the sound of the crowd
The shades from a pencil peer, pass around
A fold in an eyelid brushed with fear
The lines on a compact guide, pass around
The hat with alignment worn inside
Get in line now, get in line now
Stay in time with the rhythm and rhyme
Get around town, get around town
Where the people look good, where the music is loud
Get around town, no need to stand proud
Add your voice to the sound of the crowd
Get in line now, get in line now
Stay in time with the rhythm and rhyme
Get around town, get around town
Where the people look good, where the music is loud
Get around town, no need to stand proud
Add your voice to the sound of the crowd
Get in line now, get in line now
Stay in time with the rhythm and rhyme
Get around town, get around town
Where the people look good, where the music is loud
Get around town, no need to stand proud
(Burden/Callis/Oakey)
Around the nation, around the world
What's been going down?
A million voices, one question hurled
Heard in every town
All of the people, one simple plea
What will happen now?
Asked in concern for their destiny
Got to know somehow
They say
They say
Everything will be fine
Everything will be fine
Everything will be fine
I saw the sign
So if you want to know what's going on
Going round and round
You'd better ask before your world is gone
Gone without a sound
They say
They say
Everything will be fine
Everything will be fine
Everything will be fine
I saw the sign
Everything will be fine
Everything will be fine
Everything will be fine
I saw the sign
La la la
Love is the real thing
You know
Love is the real thing
La la la la
La love
La la la
Love is the real thing
You know
Love is the real thing
La la la la
She is waiting
In the office
For the bell to go
She is thinking
Of their meeting
Just a month ago
Now she's running
Through the pople
Everyone so slow
Now he holds her
And he loves her
He tells her so and
La la la
Love is the real thing
You know
Love is the real thing
La la la la
La love
La la la
Love is the real thing
You know
Love is the real thing
La la la la
By the nightfall
They have driven
From the world they know
She's so happy
They're together
And their love will grow
And when you feel your chance has come
Who's going to throw it all away
And if there's someone left behind
You have to say that
La la la
Love is the real thing
You know
Love is the real thing
La la la la

Love is the real thing
You know
Love is the real thing
Faced with the choice
What would you say?
The path of least resistance
It seems the only way
But can we look a little further?
Too little far I think
Self-belief's the answer
And not another drink
The safe method, the only way
You rationalise your course
Stay part of the crowd
And never find the source
Feel wanted, feel numb
Just stay as you are
The truth is - comfort kills
And you don't need that car
So sad, the early grave
When all the fun's for free
Start digging the early grave
And keep it warm for me
Faced with the choice
What would you say?
The path of least resistance
It seems the only way
But let's look a little further
Too little far, I think
Self-belief's the answer
And not another drink
The safe method, the only way
You rationalise your course
Stay a part of the crowd
And never find the source
Feel wanted, feel numb
Just stay as you are
The truth is, comfort kills
Been out all night, I needed a bite
I thought I'd put a record on
I reached for the one with the ultra-modern label
And wondered where the light had gone
It had a futuristic cover
Lifted straight from Buck Rogers
The record was so black it had to be a con
The autochanger switched as I filled my sandwich
And futuristic sounds warbled off and on
Chorus :
The Black Hit Of Space
It's the one without a face
It's the one that doesn't fit
You can only see the flip
The Black Hit Of Space
Sucking in the human race
How can it stay at the top
When it's swallowed all the shops?
As the song climbed the charts
The others disappeared
'Til there was nothing but it left to buy
It got to number one
Then into minus figures
Though nobody could understand why
(Chorus)
I couldn't stand this bland sound any more so I walked towards my deck to
turn it off. All I could see was the B-side of the disc which had assumed a
doughnut shape with the label on the outside rim. I reached for the arm
which was less than one micron long but weighed more than Saturn and time
stood still. I knew I had to escape but every time I tried to flee, the
record was in front of me.
The Black Hit Of Space
Get James Burke on the case
It's the hit that's never gone
Tell me when
Will I?
Tell me when
Will I?
Tell me when
Will I see you again?
Tell me when
Kelly took a lifetime
Searching for the bottom line
I wasn't into searching
'Cause I was doing fine
I wasn't into fighting, chasing,
Sweating, slaving, fretting, racing
Any waste of effort
Isn't part of my design
Billy was an inspiration,
positive and kind
Until he let confusion
Overcome his youthful mind
Common sense dictated
I could never be so blind
And then
Then I see you
Tell me when
Will I see you again?
Tell me when
Will I see you again?
Tell me when
Will I see you again?
Nah nah nah nah nah nah nah
Happenstance an episode unplanned,
Alone in time
Coincidence, the second chance
Re-sounding like a rhyme
How paths may cross against the odds
To wreck the plans you made
Among the crowd a face that smiles
To melt your masquerade
If only I could see you
Says the stranger deep inside
And lets you know that when you were
So sure you really lied
If only I could see you
Says the voice within your brain
And quietly, insistently
It says it once again
And then, I really need to know
Chorus
It wouldn't seem so lonely
If only I could see you
Baby, you can be free
If only I could see you
You'll never have to doubt me
If only I could see you
Baby, you could free me
If only I could see you
If only I could see you
Tell me when
Tell me when
Nah nah nah nah nah nah nah
Tell me when
Will I see you again? x3
Then
I really need to know
If only if only if only I could see you
If only I could see you
If only if only if only I could see you
Will I see you again?
If only if only if only I could see you
Will I see you again?
Will I see you again?
If only if only if only I could see you
Will I see you again?
Nah nah nah nah nah nah nah
If only if only if only I could see you
Tell me when
Will I see you again?
Tell me when
Will I see you again?
If only if only if only I could see you
Tell me when
Will I see you again?
If only if only if only I could see you

Swang
Come on, people
You can do it
Everybody
The smell of trees can only be that way
On a sunny day, floating through the open window
To the cool inside where we lay side by side
How can anything we feel ever mean so much
As a summer love?
How can anything we need ever get in touch
With the meaning of
A whole life waiting, wishing suddenly
That it's going to be the real thing
Or separating, try your luck again
It's just part of the adventure
Holy cow, you do it to me now
The soundtrack to a generation
Oh wow, you're getting to me now
The soundtrack to a generation
Another tune before the light has gone
And we'll be on our way
The sounds and smells will always linger on
They're in my heart today
We feel so lucky then the world's a massive place
But we run into each other
Just one small happening an accident of fate
Or the work of co-conspirators?
But if we knew what could it do to help us now?
Holy cow, you do it to me now
The soundtrack to a generation
Anyhow, just give it to me now
The soundtrack to a generation
Oh wow, you really get me now
The soundtrack to a generation
Holy cow, you're getting to me now
The soundtrack to a generation
Years have gone on in between
But all I knew at seventeen is all I know now
Through times of joy and suffering
The music flavors everything that's all I know now
Holy cow, you do it to me now
The soundtrack to a generation
Oh wow, you really get me now
The soundtrack to a generation
Anyhow, just give it to me now
The soundtrack to a generation
Just give it, you're getting, you do it, you really got me now
The soundtrack to a generation
Just give it, you're getting, you do it, you really got me now
The soundtrack to a generation
Oh wow, you really get me now
(Burden/Oakey)
It's hard I know to understand
Nothing lasts for ever
The things you used to say and do
The places you would go to meet
When you were together
You set your face against the tide
The harsh words that were spoken
But after all the anger
The shouting and the tears
You found your heart was broken
Fight the tears
Fight the fever
Don't give in
Soul deceiver
So hurt
With the pain you can't hide
So lost
And lonely inside
So hurt
When the feeling has died
So hurt
With the pain you can't hide
So lost
And lonely inside
So hurt
When the feeling has died
Just like the clock went back ten years
To make a new beginning
To work out how to live your life
To take the board and play the game
And recognise you're winning
Your memories mean nothing now
You're just a little older
Moving forward with the crowd
Silent fears but laughing loud
Not wiser but just bolder
Fight the tears
Fight the fever
Fight the hurt
Don't give up
So hurt
With the pain you can't hide
So lost
And lonely inside
So hurt
When the feeling has died
So hurt
With the pain you can't hide
So lost
And lonely inside
So hurt
When the feeling has died
And after such a blazing day
At last the breeze began to play
I drained my glass and turned to see
Her face she smiled she spoke to me
I told her my name I asked her the same
She said they call me sky
Said she is in danger maybe a stranger
Might know a place near by
And she talked and she smoked little more than a job
All the cares of my life went away on that day
In that room coming out of the gloom
And the gift that she gave follow me to the grave from on
Life goes on
Now you gone
Life goes on after sky X2
So much can change without a sign
A twist of faight 2 worlds aligh
The words get spoken all worlds were broken
The wind began to sign
The heat of daybreak the precious keepsake
Too soon the last goodbye
And the death in her eyes come enraged of the skies
For the day of my birth was the last day on earth
Like a boat in the night gets a moment of light
I could see what I've done what must be from now on
Life goes on
Now you're gone
Life goes on after sky X2
Ahhh sky
Ahhh sky
Life goes on
Now you're gone
Life goes on after sky X2
All day
Hiding from the sun
Waiting for the golden one
Waiting for your fame
After the parade has gone
Outside was a happy place
Every face had a smile like the golden face
For a second
Your knuckles white as your fingers curl
The shot that was heard around the world
For a second
Refrain :
It took seconds of your time to take his life
It took seconds
(Refrain)
It took seconds of your time to take his life
It took seconds of your time to take his life
Seconds
Seconds
(Refrain twice)
For a second
(Refrain twice)
For a second
It took seconds of your time to take his life
Seconds of your time to take his life
For a second
For a second
Rock'n'roll, rock, rock'n'roll
Rock'n'roll, rock, rock'n'roll
Do you still recall in the juke box hall when the music played
And the world span around to a brand new sound of those far off days
In their blue suede shoes they would scream and shout
And they'd sing the blues, let it all hang out
Rock'n'roll - HEY! - rock'n'roll
A rock'n'roll - HEY! - rock'n'roll
Rock'n'roll - HEY! - rock'n'roll
Rock'n'roll, rock, rock'n'roll
A rock'n'roll, rock
Took the Queen of bop to the high school hop, dancing to the beat
With a U.S. male and her pony tail, well she looked so sweet
Times are changing fast but we won't forget, though that age is past, we'll be rockin' yet
Rock'n'roll - HEY! - rock'n'roll
A rock'n'roll - HEY! - rock'n'roll
Rock'n'roll - HEY! - rock'n'roll

Everyone is going to
Party - yeah
Everyone is going to
Party, party
Everyone is going to
Party - yeah
And I say yeah
Come on
Everyone is going to
Party, party
Everyone is going to
Party - yeah
Come on
Everyone is going to
Party, party
Come on
Everyone is going to
And when it hurts you know they love to tell you
How they warned you
They say "Don't be surprised at someone's lies"
They think they taunt you
But if you can stand the test
You know your worst is better than their best
And so you stand here with the years ahead
Potentially calling
With open heart or with a spirit dead
You walk on
Chorus :
Lies the reason
Faith or treason
Playing a part
End concealing
Try revealing
Open your heart
Dare to feel
Take the chance
Make the deal
Being an island
Shying from trying
Seems the easy way
Such an easy way
But there's no future without tears
(Chorus)
But if you can stand the test
You know your worst is better than their best
(Chorus)
Lies the reason
Faith or treason
Playing a part
End concealing
Try revealing
Open your heart
When you ask me do I mean it?
You have to know
You are the only one
You ask me if it is forever
How can I show?
There's no comparison
Beyond your doubt
Beyond devout
Beyond the stars tonight
One man in my heart
One man in my head
Oo la la la oo la la la
One man in my house
One man in my bed
Oo la la la oo la la la
My faith is stronger than existence
Longer than time
More fiery than the sun
Within a universe exploding
Though we are mist
Among oblivion
Or should I lie?
So you can cry
In your sleep tonight
Chorus
Your clumsy grace
I love your face
And when we meet
Oo oo oo la la la
Your kiss so sweet
The things we choose
The things we choose
The life we use
The life we use
The things you say
All the things you say
The need to stay
And the need to stay
One man in my heart
One man in my head
Oo la la la oo la la la
One man in my heart
One man in my house
One man in my bed
Oo la la la oo la la la
I've got one man one man
I'll miss your naked body
I'll miss your mind
Human beings learn to miss
The things they leave behind
Another romance broken
It's time to go
Too late to contradict
What we already know
Closed my eyes
To the truth
And the lies
Never again
Won't ask why
Don't reply
I'll just say
Never again
Time tells
Your heart compels
Never again
Never take a chance
Again
Time tells
Your heart compels
Never again
Never break a heart again
Never again never again
But until then
Never again never again
Never again
Never again never again
Never again never again
I know I couldn't keep you
I know the score
I know I'm surplus
To the life you're looking for
'Though nothing lasts forever
Still hope remains
We never go back to
The way we were before
From now on
To the end
Won't pretend
Say it again
Won't commit
Won't submit
'Til I know
Never again
Chorus
Woman
Runaway woman,
Never again
Woman
Oh my woman,
Woman
Runaway woman,
Never again
Woman
Oh my woman,
Never again
Never break a heart again
Time tells
Woman
Your heart compels
Runaway woman,
Never again
Woman
Oh my woman,
Never take a chance
Again
Time tells
Woman
Your heart compels
Runaway woman,
Never again
Woman
Oh my woman,
Never break a heart again
Never again never again
But until then
Never again never again
Never again
Never again
Never again never again
Make your mind up
Who's going to think for you?
When the time comes
You'll have to see it through
Use your instinct
And take a risk or two
Don't you worry
'Cause you'll know what to do
You can give so
Much to me
But I don't want it
I will be free
For the last time
I'm going out thie door
You don't need me
To help you anymore
Eyes wide open
I see it's different now
Keep your comfort
I'll get along somehow
You can have my money
I don't need it anymore
I don't need your invitation
Down that lonesome corridor
Breakdown
You can have my money
I don't need it anymore
I don't need your invitation
Down that lonesome corridor
Nothing good comes easily
Count the cost, I will be free
You can scream and disagree
I don't want it - I will be free
You can have my money
I don't need it anymore
I don't need your invitation
Down that lonesome corridor
Nothing good comes easily
Count the cost, I will be free
You can scream and disagree
Time goes so fast today. Don't blink she'll go away. Don't
close your eyes. Not for one moment. You feel so good right
now. You have to stay somehow. Don't let it slip. Let time
stay frozen.
She needs you. You need her. Just like the sun. Don't think
that it's over. It's just begun.
Oh Mister Moon and Mister Sun. Our song has only just
begun. Oh Mister Sun and Mister Moon. Don't let these
minutes go too soon.
If wishes were for free. My only hope would be. To stop the
clock. Let's keep this moment. I guess that's just a dream.
As hollow as your own moon beam. So let us revel in our
time.
She needs you. You need her. Just like the sun. It never is
over. Once it's begun.
Oh Mister Moon and Mister Sun. Our life has only just
begun. Oh Mister Sun and Mister Moon. Don't let this
moment go too soon.
Oh Mister Moon and Mister Sun. Our life has only just
begun. Oh Mister Sun and Mister Moon. Don't let this
moment go too soon. Oh Mister Moon and Mister Sun. Our
song has only just begun. Oh Mister Sun and Mister Moon.
The water shines, a pebble skips across the face
A dozen times, then disappears, not a trace left behind
The thrower turns and walks away
A change of mind, another start a brand new day
You know I'll change
If change is what you require
Your every wish
Your every dream, hope, desire
Here comes the mirror man
Says he's a people fan
Here comes the mirror man
And if it seems I'm not the one you used to know
Our little friendship left behind not long ago
Don't feel too hurt as distance heals the strongest pain
Things are much better now and just a nagging doubt remains
You know I'll change
If change is what you require
Your every wish
Your every dream, hope, desire
Here comes the mirror man
Says he's a people fan
Here comes the mirror man
Here comes the mirror man
Says he's a people fan
Here comes the mirror man
Here comes the mirror man
Says he's a people fan
Here comes the mirror man
Here comes the mirror man
Says he's a people fan
I take one look at you
It leaves me breathless
I see your dreams come true
You're not so restless
Or light, or bright
Marianne
One day I might not care
What happened to me
Your lack of sympathy fails to disturb me
I've got a life of my own
I remember the day I thought we couldn't lose
Running round the garden in your mother's shoes
Playing with your sisters
I didn't see you were a grown up girl
And bringing me tea
But is it life in a grown up world
On a cold autumn day
Is it life, someone's wife
When the car had broken down
The best of my girls
I didn't see you were a grown up girl
Oh how I hate the celebration
But you give it all away leaving me on my own
But is it life in a grown up world
I can't wait for the end of the celebration
Is it life, someone's wife
Add it up, all that's left is a space in a life
That goes on as before
One day I might not care
What happens to me
Your lack of sympathy fails to disturb me
I've got a life of my own
Add it up, all that's left is a space in a life
That goes on as before
Marianne
Add it up, all that's left is a space in a life
That goes on as before
Marianne
Add it up, All that's left is a space in a life
That goes on as before
Marianne
Add it up, all that's left is a space in a life
At the end of the world
I was wondering
All the time that I was waiting
When would I rise
From the years that I'd been hating
For the first time
Living seemed to mean so much to me
Like the day time
Shining from the night that used to be
Just when it seemed like
My chances all had gone
I found a reason
To fight to carry on
Look back in anger
Look back in fun
But take what you want
Love on the run
Life hates a loser
Look what you've done
Hold up your head
Love on the run
So the page turned
Someone there to read my history
Understanding
Always wants to see the best in me
For the future
Looking just a little like a dream
Warm and hazy
Living everyday but more extreme
Just when it seemed like
My chances all had gone
I found a reason
To fight to carry on
Look what you've done
Look back in anger
Look back in fun
Write your own story
Love on the run
Life hates a loser
Look what you've done
Revel in glory
Love on the run
Look back in anger
Look back in fun
But take what you want
Love on the run
Life hates a loser
Look what you've done
Hold up your head
Love on the run
Hold your head up
Hold your head up
Hold your head up
Love on the run
Hold your head up
Hold your head up
Hold your head up
Look back in anger
Look back in fun
Write your own story
Love on the run
Life hates a loser
Look what you've done
Revel in glory
Was raining in my heart
Falling deep inside of me
Drowning in my soul
This silence rushes over me
I am breath against this fire
And I will not turn away
I'm waiting for time to carry me
Like a tempest to the sea
Standing strong
Watching over
Love will keep me believing
Thru the dark...can you hear me calling
Holding on when I'm dreaming
Love is all...Love is all
Thundering on high
Love was all I knew before I fell
And now the shots of man
Are echoing inside myself
I am breath against this fire
And I will not turn away
I'm waiting for time to carry me
Like a tempset to the sea
Standing strong
When you're in love
You know you're in love
No matter what you try to do
You might as well resign yourself
To what you're going through
If you're a hard man or if you're a child
It still might get to you
Don't kid yourself you've seen it all before
A million mouths have said that too
I've had my hard times (hard times) in the past
I've been a husband and a lover too
I've lain alone and cried at night
Over what love made me do
And the loved ones who let me down
And couldn't share my point of view
But this is Phil talking
I want to tell you
What I've found to be true
Chorus :
I love your love action
Lust's just a distraction
No talking, just looking
Watching your love action
I believe, I believe what the old man said
Though I know that there's no lord above
I believe in me, I believe in you
And you know I believe in love
I believe in truth though I lie a lot
I feel the pain from the push and shove
No matter what you put me through
I'll still believe in love
And I say
(Callis/Oakey/Wright)
When he saw her getting of the bus
It seemed to wipe away the years
Her face was older, just a little rough
But her eyes were still so clear
He drank his coffee and he hurried out
Across before she walked away
Then he approached her like a little child
Too scared for what he had to say
"Hello, Louise,
Remember me?
Now should we part
Or stay awhile?
As if we were still lovers"
She took a moment just to recognise
The man sheÕd known so well before
And as he started to apologise
Lose any bitterness she bore
She gently put her finger on his lips
To let him know she understood
And with her suit case standing on the floor
Embraced him like a lover would
He told Louise
"You look so good
ItÕs just you see
You make me feel
As if we were still lovers"
[Spoken:]
It's not always true that time heals all wounds.
There are wounds that you don't wanna heal,
the memories of something really good,
something truly real, that you never found again.
And though they talked for just a little time
Before she said she had to go
He saw the meeting as a tiny sign
That told him all he had to know
And so Louise
Waved from the bus
And as she left
She gave that smile
As if they were still lovers
(Callis/Oakey/Wright)
Winter is approaching
ThereÕs snow upon the ground
ItÕs good of you to visit me
IÕm glad you came around
I donÕt know how you found me
I didnÕt let you know
I only moved to this address
About a week ago
I guess you think I ran out
But thatÕs not true
Other people settle down
I never do
I always have to move on
Just have to go
IÕve often wondered why that is
IÕd like to say but I just donÕt know
I guess you always wanted
Life on your own
I guess you always wanted
Life on your own
Up here the summerÕs shorter
And winterÕs very cold
IÕm looking forward to the peace
My lonely life will hold
IÕm really glad you came here
Thank you for the talk
ItÕs funny how my problem stopped
When we went for a walk
Standing here together
Means so much
I wonÕt forget your confidence
I wonÕt forget your touch
You know IÕll come to see you
Passing through
WeÕll always be a world apart
IÕll travel on but I will be true
I guess you always wanted
Life on your own
I guess you always wanted
Life on your own
I guess you always wanted
Life on your own
I guess you always wanted
Life on your own
When you fall into your seat
You know you feel you might be dying
As the breath rasps in and out
Of your burning throat
You can't control your lungs because you're so tired
You're half awake with one arm in your coat
Well thank god that there is someone there to drive you
You know you couldn't make it on your own
He helps you through the door
You sit down on the floor
And you're asleep before you are alone
Chorus :
Your life is like a schedule
You run to meet the bills
No one's awake to tell you
Life kills
(Chorus)
For a while it seems exhaustion has subsided
The day is over and the moon is high
But your period of work is predecided
Funny how the hours of freedom seem to fly
Well thank god that there is someone there to drive you
You know you couldn't make it on your own
He helps you in the door
You sit down as before
Another shift to pay another loan
Let's get together again. All you need is here to stay. Let's
get together again. Forget about your yesterdays.
It's been a very long long time. Since I last remember
seeing you. I hope you write and say you're fine. Did you
ever sit and dream. Of the time when we would meet
again? It's very hard now you're not mine.
The 'phone's right next to you. And you know just what to
do. Just pick it up. And call my name.
Let's get together again. All you need is here to stay. Let's
get together again. Forget about your yesterday.
Tomorrow's just a step away. 'Til I come running back to
you. I hope you stay right by my side. I thought I'd never
see. My angel back here next to me. Promise me that you
won't hide.
The 'phone's right next to you. And you know just what to
do. Just pick it up. And call my name.
Let's get together again. All you need is here to stay. Let's
get together again. Forget about your yesterday.
And you know there ain't much time. I'm so alone. Please
come home. I'm on my own.
Let's get together again. All you need is here to stay. Let's

Let's get together again. All you need is here to stay. Let's

Starting over
To feel the way I do
A sudden stranger
To everything I knew
All the years together
Now the days we are apart
New experiences
New sensation for the heart
But you know that you will go back
Where you used to
Got to get some jam
Got to get some
To be alone was frightening
But I knew I had to stay
'Til all the dreamers came
To take my loneliness away
But you know that you will go back
Where you used to
Got to get some jam
You've got to get some
If all our life is dancing
Then let's just let the music play
What good is crying?
I'm going to jam my life away
But you know that you will go back
Where you used to
Where you used to
Starting over
To feel the way I do
A sudden stranger
To everything I knew
But you know that you will go back
Where you used to
But you know that you will go back
Where you used to
Got to get some jam
Got to get some
Got to get some jam
Got to get some
(Oakey/Wright)
Funny sometimes how you let
The little things
Get in yhour way
Funny how you just can't talk
Although sometimes
You've got so much to say
Silly when you know you've got the thing
That everybody
Needs so bad
Stupid if you let those jealous people
Telling lies
Make you sad
I thought I heard a voice
Telling me go home
No need to run no more
needn't be alone
I don't care what you do
I'm coming back
I can look forward too
I'm coming back
Crazy feelings that you get
Sometimes they make you
Want to run away
The provocation that you let
Overcome you
When you ought to stay
I thought I saw her face
In every single crowd
I heard her voice again
calling me aloud
I don't care what you do
I'm coming back
I can look forward too
I'm coming back
I thought I never could
Return where I belong
But with her waiting there
I knew I could be strong
I don't care what you do
I'm coming back
I can look forward too
I'm coming back
I don't care what you do
I'm coming back
I can look forward too
I'm coming back
I need your loving
I need your kissing, baby
I need your loving
I need your kissing, baby
Moonlit sky casts shadows down
Romance in the air is strong
Something's telling me
I need your love
I need your loving
I need your kissing, baby
And that's a fact
I need your loving
I need your kissing, baby
Where are you at?
Looking glass reflects the moon
Your love's missing from this room
Baby, now I see
I need your love
I need your loving
I need your kissing, baby
And that's a fact
I need your loving
I need your kissing, baby
Where are you at?
I need your loving
I need your love
I need your kissing, baby
And that's a fact
I need your loving
I need your love
I need your kissing, baby
Where are you at?
Oh, I need your love
I need you tonight
Can't do without
Oh, I need your love
Oh, I need your love
So I can hug
And squeeze you tight
Oh, I need your love
Oh, I need your love
I need you tonight
Can't do without
Oh, I need your love
Oh, I need your love
So I can hug
And squeeze you tight
Oh, I need your love
Baby
Come on home to me
I need your love
I need your loving
I need your kissing, baby
And that's a fact
I need your loving
I need your kissing, baby
Where are you at?
I need your loving
I need your love
I need your kissing, baby
I need your loving
I need your love
I need your kissing, baby
And that's a fact
That's where I'm at
Baby
I need your loving
I need your love
I need your kissing, baby
Now I know what
I've been missing
I need your loving
I need your love
(Burden/Callis/Wright)
We talked and talked and talked and talked for hours
An ocean or two couldn't keep me away from you
We spoke about the time and place of our first meeting
Without a word I know you knew that I cared about you
I love you too much
I love you too much
I love you too much
I love you too much
Been one too many lonely nights without you
On one too many trains and boats and 'planes
I spent a thousand nights alone before I met you
And I'll spend many more until we meet again
I love you too much
I love you too much
I love you too much
I love you too much
Verse :
The night
So young
You could lose
You could gain
Your temperature's rising
Better pull in to the outside lane
You always say you're not the jealous kind
Then you tell all your friends
That I've got one thing on my mind
Chorus :
I've played this scene before
You had one foot in the door
But there's always plenty more
Don't try to use me
I don't depend on you
I've got my own friends too
I'll never be your wife
Don't try to use me
I've played this scene before
You had one foot in the door
But there's always plenty more
Don't try to use me
Chorus 2 :
It's cruel but it's true
I don't depend on you
It's cruel but it's true
Go back to the end of the queue
(Chorus)
(Verse)
(Chorus)
(Chorus 2)
My life - I'm a fool for you
You who take no advice
You who think evil doesn't exist
Just because you deny it is true
Chorus :
You're lucky I care
For fools like you
You're lucky I'm there
To stop people doing the things
That you know they're dying to do
(Chorus)
Refrain :
You know I am no stranger
I know rules are a bore
But just to keep you from danger
I am the law
(Refrain)
A dog must bark
So evil calls
Both in the wild and
Within these walls
(Chorus)
Talking to your lover
On a non existent phone
Houseful of nothing
The joyous conversation
Of a creature quite alone
Houseful of nothing
The whir of passing traffic
The sighing of the breeze
Houseful of nothing
The awareness of a culture
That is fading by degrees
Houseful of nothing
A hint of a shadow
Or a picture by the door
Houseful of nothing
The creak of a staircase
Or the flexing of the floor
Houseful of nothing
The light spreading even
Neither glaring nor too dark
Houseful of nothing
All finished had blended
Leaving surface with no mark
Houseful of nothing
One time in a lifetime
Understand just what you own
No-one owns the sunshine
And possession is a stone
One time in a lifetime
Try to glimpse just who you are
All that learning, all those ages
Have you really come so far?
The traces of a perfume
Half-remembered from the past
Houseful of nothing
The ringing of a catchphrase
From a cherished telecast
Houseful of nothing
Nothing in the corner
Nothing on the wall
Houseful of nothing
It makes you laugh to think
That there were ever things at all
Houseful of nothing
One time in a lifetime
Will you use the things you know
Will you passing, make a difference
Will you foster, will you sow?
One time in a lifetime
Make a list of all you own
And when you are gone
What will it do for you, baby?
(Hey, hey, hey, hey, hey)
You took my family
Give it back
(Give it back)
You took the heart of me
Give it back
(Give it back)
Wipe clean a memory
Give it back
(Give it back)
You took my dignity
(Give it back)
Remember society
Bring it back
(Bring it back)
Bring it back
Sense of community
Bring it back
(Bring it back)
Bring it back
Lost opportunity
Bring it back
(Bring it back)
Bring it back
Mercy and charity
Bring it back
(Bring it back)
One time in a lifetime
Understand just what you own
No-one owns the sunshine
And possession is a stone
One time
(Remember society)
In a lifetime
(Bring it back)
Try to glimpse just who you are
All that learning
(Sense of community)
All those ages
(Bring it back)
Have you really come so far?
Lost opportunity
Bring it back
Mercy and charity
Bring it back
One time in a lifetime
Try to glimpse just who you are
All that learning, all those ages
Have you really come so far?
Bring it, bring it, bring it, bring it back
Mercy and charity
Bring it back
Once there was a vision
Once there was a glow
Once there was a certainty
No chance could overthrow
Hope was scorched by summer
Crushed and beaten down
Once there was a winner
Now there was a clown
Without you life had seemed so
But now I'm
Filling up with Heaven
Without you life had
seemed so hostile
Filling up with Heaven
But maybe with you it's all worthwhile
Now I'm filling up with Heaven
No baby no baby no baby no
Filling up
No baby no baby baby baby no
Filling up
No baby no baby no baby no
No baby no baby baby baby no
All the fortune that my
luck had brought
It couldn't even make me smile
Without you life had seemed so
A lonely hideaway my last resort
All achievement infantile
Now I'm
Filling up with Heaven
Without you life had
seemed so hostile
Filling up with Heaven
But maybe with you it's all worthwhile
Hey hey hey
As the years had passed by
I became more cynical
All the magic had died
My existence clinical
Ow ow ow ow
But now I'm
Filling up with Heaven
Down down
Down down
Filling up
Without you life had
seemed so hostile
Down down
Down down
Hey hey hey hey
Filling up with Heaven
But maybe with you it's all worthwhile
Woah woah woah woah
Now I'm
Filling up with Heaven
Without you life had
seemed so hostile
Down down
Down down
Filling up filling up
Filling up with Heaven
But maybe with you it's all worthwhile
Ow ow ow ow ow
Woah woah woah
Now I'm
Filling up with Heaven
Without you life had seemed so
hostile
Down down
Down down
Filling up with Heaven
But maybe with you it's all worthwhile
Hey hey hey hey
Without you life had
seemed so hostile
Down down
Down down
Filling up
Since I was very young I've realised
I never wanted to be human size
So I avoid the crowds and traffic jams
They just remind me of how small I am
Because of this longing in my heart
I'm going to start the growing art
I'm going to grow now and never stop
Think like a mountain, grow to the top
Chorus :
Tall, tall, tall, I want to be tall, tall, tall
As big as a wall, wall, wall, as big as a wall, wall, wall
And if I'm not tall, tall, tall, then I will crawl, crawl, crawl
Because I'm not tall, tall, tall, tall, tall, tall, tall, tall
Tall, tall, tall, I want to be tall, tall, tall
As big as a wall, wall, wall, as big as a wall, wall, wall
And if I'm not tall, tall, tall, then I will crawl, crawl, crawl
Because I'm not tall, tall, tall, tall, tall, tall, tall, tall
With concentration
My size increased
And now I'm fourteen stories high
At least
Empire State Human
Just a born kid
I'll go to Egypt to be
The pyramids
(Chorus) over :-
Refrain 1 :
Brick by brick
Stone by stone
Growing till he's fully grown
Brick by brick
Stone by stone
Growing till he's fully grown
Refrain 2 :
Fetch more water
Fetch more sand
Biggest person in the land
Fetch more water
Fetch more sand
Biggest person in the land
(Refrain 1)
(Chorus) over :-
(Refrain 2)
(Refrain 1)
Someone stopped the clock
When we should have started early
If we miss the morning meeting
Our lives will be in danger
Someone's trying to stop us
There is someone in our party
It is someone with a grudge
And they won't let us reach the border
Our lives are in his hands
We pay with Krugerands
The currency of pain to help
Us leaving
While back in our homeland
The ones who make a stand
Are taken from their homes and
No-one hears of them again
I felt I had to come here
I thought things would be better
The situation's changed
But I find I'm still resented
Someone wants my job
It is someone in this building
Someone's spreading rumours
And I don't feel I can stay here
I think I'm going north
And now's the time to leave
The people there they say
Are good to strangers
And if I do my best
And try to settle in
I'm sure I can be just like
Someone's neighbour
I'm sure I can be just like
Darkness where my dreams are all too clear
Darkness, darkness
Filled with all the sounds of fear
I hear voices
(Don't turn out the light)
Calling faraway
I see shadows
(Don't turn out the light)
Moving, changing shape
And the clock stops as darkness closes in
I hesitate but it's too late
I scream and scream again
I hear colors black and red
I see sounds that fill my head
I'll never read those books again
In darkness where my dreams are all too clear
Darkness, darkness
Filled with all the sounds of fear
I hear voices
(Don't turn out the light)
Calling faraway
I see shadows
(Don't turn out the light)
Moving, changing shape
Don't turn out the light
(Don't turn out the light)
Or I'll go over the edge
Don't turn out the light
(Don't turn out the light)
Or I'll go over the edge
In darkness, where my dreams are all too clear
Darkness, darkness
Filled with all the sounds of fear
I hear voices
(Don't turn out the light)
Calling faraway
I see shadows
(Don't turn out the light)
Moving, changing shape
I hear voices
(Don't turn out the light)
Calling faraway
I see shadows
(Don't turn out the light)
Do you hear me? x6
Just because you can
You treat me like a fool
But just because you can
Don't make it right
Can it be so hard
To be a little kind
And you could be here
With me tonight
I've got feelings
Don't be unkind
Feelings
Don't be unkind
Feelings
Stay with me tonight
You've been stealing
That's so unkind
Stealing
A heart, a mind
Stealing
Stay with me tonight
Cruel young lover
Blow your mind out
Time will come when
You will find out
Time will take your cruel power away
Cruel young lover
Try to stand out
Will it always pay
To bland out?
Time will take your cruel power away
Do you hear me? x6
Once again you're gone
Somewhere in the night
Disappearing
Leaving me alone
The lure of city streets
The pull of unknown souls
The overpowering draw
Of the unknown
You've been stealing
That's so unkind
Stealing
A heart, a mind
I'm appealing
Stay with me tonight
Cruel young lover
Hit the action
Can you live on your attraction
Time may take your cruel power away
Cruel young lover
Try to stand out
Will it always pay
To bland out?
Time will take your cruel power away
Cruel young lover
Ah ah ah ah x2
Do you hear me?
Cruel young lover

Cruel young lover

Ah ah ah ah ah

Cruel young lover
Ah ah ah ah ah

Ah ah ah ah ah
That's so unkind

Cruel young lover

Do you hear me?

Do you hear me?
Ah ah ah ah ah
Cruel young lover

A crow and a baby
Had an affair
The result was a landslide
The result was a dare
The result was a baby
Who wanted it all
Moved out of the doll's house
Moved out of the hall
With one wing on the town
And a gleam in an eye of red
Said "My father was a crow
Now I want all fathers dead
Find the fathers of this world
Treat them as a fatal foe
Put them in the deepest hole
Then cover the pit with snow"
Refrain :
With one wing on the town
And a gleam in an eye of red
I'm just trying to tell you
What you'll come up against
If you venture from my side
If you think you're so mature
You will end up in a field
You will be someone's manure
Mushrooms growing from your back
Feeding some damn carrion bird
Do you want to contribute
To the corruption of the world?
(Refrain)
A crow and a baby
Had an affair
My dream was the baby
The crow was your hair
Parts of me love parts of you
That at least is obvious
Give my baby back to me
You must see it's only just
"In just a few moments we're off to Hawaii to join Steve McGarrett and
the team for tonight's adventure"
Nine o'clock flight from Hawaii
The Trident is just touching down
We're waiting here on the tarmac
McGarrett is wearing a frown
He's here to help with a problem
A blood-spattered curse on our land
Please cast your eye over this map, sir
This business is quite out of hand
The circus of death is approaching
Its pathway is painted in red
Before it the frightened and helpless
Behind it a trail of the dead
The narcotic that forges their union
Is a substance known only to one
To the clown it is known as Dominion
It's a secret that he'll give to none
The drug which gives the clown power
Means the circus can never be stopped
And his dream can go on unhindered
Till the last human being has dropped
Spare me and my family
I've done you no wrong
Go away, please let us be
(Oakey/Wright)
When all the money's gone
When all the boys move on
No star to wish upon
When every race is run
In the quiet of the morning
Lying in the morning sun
Ruins of another country
Day has just begun
Blown by the desert breeze
No memory of trees
No mercy from the sky
No avenue to try
In the quiet of the morning
Lying in the morning sun
Ruins of another country
Day has just begun
When all the money's gone
When all the boys move on
No star to wish upon
When every race is run
In the quiet of the morning
Lying in the morning sun
Ruins of another country
Day has just begun
