Don't Look Back In Anger:
Slip inside the eye of your mind Don't you know you might find A better place to play You said that you'd once never been All the things that you've seen Will slowly fade away
So I'll start the revolution from my bed Cos you said the brains I had went to my head Step outside the summertime's in bloom Stand up beside the fireplace Take that look from off your face You ain't ever gonna burn my heart out
So Sally can wait, she knows its too late as we're walking on by Her soul slides away, but don't look back in anger I hear you say
Take me to the place where you go Where nobody knows if it's night or day Please don't put your life in the hands Of a Rock n Roll band Who'll throw it all away

Hey Now:
I hitched a ride with my soul By the side of the road Just as the sky turned black I took a walk with my fame Down memory lane I never did find my way back
You know that I gotta say time's slipping away And what will it hold for me What am I gonna do while I'm looking at you You're standing ignoring me
I thought that I heard someone say now There's no time for running away now Hey now! Hey now!
Feel no shame - cos time's no chain Feel no shame
The first thing I saw As I walked through the door Was a sign on the wall that read It said you might never know That I want you to know What is written inside of your head
And time as it stands Won't be held in my hands Or living inside of my skin And as it fell from the sky I asked myself why Can I never let anyone in?
I thought that I heard someone say now There's no time for running away now Hey now! Hey now!
Feel no shame - cos time's no chain Feel no shame
I hitched a ride with my soul By the side of the road Just as the sky turned black I took a walk with my fame Down memory lane I never did find my way back

I thought that I heard someone say now There's no time for running away now Hey now! Hey now!
Feel no shame - cos time's no chain Feel no shame
Some Might Say:
Some might say that sunshine follows thunder Go and tell it to the man who cannot shine Some might say that we should never ponder On our thoughts today cos they will sway over time
Some might say we will find a brighter day Some might say we will find a brighter day
Cos I've been standing at the station In need of education in the rain You made no preparation for my reputation once again The sink is full of fishes Cos she's got dirty dishes on the brain It was overflowing gently but it's all elementary my friend
Some might say they don't believe in heaven Go and tell it to the man who lives in hell Some might say you get what you've been given If you don't get yours I won't get mine as well
Some might say we will find a brighter day Some might say we will find a brighter day
Cos I've been standing at the station In need of education in the rain You made no preparation for my reputation once again The sink is full of fishes Cos she's got dirty dishes on the brain It was overflowing gently but it's all elementary my friend
Cast No Shadow:
Here's a thought for every man Who tries to understand what is in his hands He walks along the open road of Love & Life surviving if he can
Bound with all the weight of all the words he tried to say Chained to all the places that he never wished to say Bound with all the weight of all the words he tried to say and as faced the sun he cast no shadow
As they took his soul they stole his pride As they took his soul they stole his pride As they took his soul they stole his pride

Champagne Supernova:
How many special people change How many lives are living strange Where were you when we were getting high? Slowly walking down the hall Faster than a cannon ball Where were you while we were getting high?
Some day you will find me Caught beneath the landslide In a champagne supernova in the sky Some day you will find me Caught beneath the landslide In a champagne supernova A champagne supernova in the sky
Wake up the dawn and ask her why A dreamer dreams she never dies Wipe that tear away now from your eye Slowly walking down the hall Faster than a cannon ball Where were you when we were getting high?
Some day you will find me Caught beneath the landslide In a champagne supernova in the sky Some day you will find me Caught beneath the landslide In a champagne supernova A champagne supernova in the sky
Cos people believe that they're Gonna get away for the summer But you and I, we live and die The world's still spinning round We don't know why Why, why, why, why

BE HERE NOW:
D'You Know What I Mean?:
Step off the train all alone at dawn Back into the hole where I was born The sun in the sky never raised an eye to me The blood on the trax and must be mine The fool on the hill and I feel fine Don't look back cos you know what you might see
Look into the wall of my mind's eye I think I know, but I don't know why The questions are the answers you might need Coming in a mess going out in style I ain't good-looking but I'm someone's child No-one can give me the air that's mine to breathe
I met my maker I made him cry And on my shoulder he asked me why His people won't fly through the storm I said "Listen up man, they don't even know you're born"
All my people right here, right now D'You Know What I Mean? All my people right here, right now D'You Know What I Mean? All my people right here, right now D'You Know What I Mean? Yeah, yeah
I don't really care for what you believe So open up your fist or you won't receive The thoughts and the words of every man you'll need Get up off the floor and believe in life No-one's ever gonna ever ask you twice Get on the bus and bring it on home to me
My Big Mouth:
Everybody knows ... but no-one's saying nothing And it's a sound so very loud ... that no-one can hear I got something in my shoe ... it's keeping me from walking Down the long and winding road ... back home to you
Around this town you've ceased to be That's what you get for sleeping with the enemy Where angels fly you won't play So guess who's gonna take the blame for ...
My big mouth, my big name Who'll put on my shoes while they're walking Slowly down the hall of fame? Into my big mouth you could fly a plane Who'll put on my shoes while they're walking Slowly down the hall of fame? Slowly down the hall of fame
I ain't never spoke to God And I ain't never been to heaven But you assumed I knew the way Even though the map was given And as you look into the eyes Of a bloody cold assasin Only then you'll realize With who's life you have been messin'
Magic Pie:
An extraordinary guy Can never have an ordinary day, He might live a long goodbye But that is not for me to say I dig his friends, I dig his shoes But he is just a child with nothing to lose But his mind
They are sleeping while they dream And then they want to be adored They who don't say what they mean Will live and die by their own sword. I dig their friends, I dig their shoes But they are like a child with nothing to lose In their minds, their minds.
But I'll have my way In my own time I'll have my say My star will shine
Cos you see me I got my Magic Pie Think of me yeah that was me I was that passer by I've been and now I've gone.
There are but a thousand days preparing for a thousand years Many minds to educate and people who have disappeared D'you dig my friends? D'you dig my shoes? I am like a child with nothing to lose but my mind My mind
Stand By Me:
Made a meal and threw it up on Sunday I've got a lot of things to learn Said I would and I believe in one day Before my heart starts to burn.
So what's the matter with you? Sing me something new ... Don't you know The cold and wind and rain don't know They only seem to come and go, away
Times are hard when things have got no meaning I've found a key upon the floor Maybe you and I will not believe in the things we find behind the door
Stand By Me -- Nobody knows the way it's gonna be Stand By Me -- Nobody knows the way it's gonna be Stand By Me -- Nobody knows the way it's gonna be
If you're leaving will you take me with you I'm tired of talking on my phone But there is one thing I can never give you My heart will never be your home
I Hope I Think I Know:
They're trying hard to put me in my place And that is why I've gotta keep running The future is mine and it's no disgrace Cos in the end the past means nothing
You tell me I'm free then you tie me down And from my chains I think it's a pity What did it cost you to wear my crown You dont like me why don't you admit it
D'you feel a little down today? Bet you ain't got much to say? But your gonna miss me when I'm not there You know I dont care, You know I dont care
As we beg and steal and borrow Life is hit and miss and this I Hope, I Think, I Know And if I hear the names you call If I stumble catch me when I fall Cos baby after all, You'll never forget my name
The Girl In The Dirty Shirt:
If I may be so bold could I just say something Come and make me my day The clouds around your soul don't gather there for nothing But I can chase them all away
Why d'you need a reason for to feel happy Or be shining for the rest of the world Give me just a smile and would you make it snappy Get your shit together girl
You got a feeling lost inside It just won't let you go Your life is sneaking up behind It just won't let you go No it just won't let you go What I'm trying to say ...
Is would you maybe, come dancing me Cos to me it doesn't matter if your hopes and dreams are shattered When you say something you make me believe In the girl who wears a dirty shirt She knows exactly what she's worth Knows exactly what she's worth to me! That I can see, I can see
If you ever find yourself inside a bubble You've gotta find your own way home You can call me anytime you're seeing double Now you know you're not alone
Fade In-Out:
Get on the rollercoaster The fair's in town today Y'gotta be bad-enough to beat the brave
So get on the helter skelter Bowl into the fray Y'gotta be bad-enough to beat the brave
You fade in-out You fade in-out Without a doubt I don't see no shine Today is just a daydream Tomorrow we'll be castaway
Coming in-out of nowhere Singin' rhapsody Y'gotta be bad-enough to wanna be
Sitting upside a high chair With the devils refugee Is gonna be blinded by the light That follows me
She fade in-out She fade in-out Without a doubt I don't see no shine Today is just a daydream Tomorrow she'll be castaway
Don't Go Away:
Cold and frosty morning there's not a lot to say About the things caught in my mind And as the day was dawning my plane flew away With all the things caught in my mind
I don't wanna be there when you're ... Coming down I don't wanna be there when you hit the ground
So dont go away, say what you say Say that you'll stay Forever and a day ... In the time of my life Cos I need more time, yes I need more time just to make things right
Damn my situation and the games I have to play With all the things caught in my mind Damn my education I can't find the words to say With all the things caught in my mind
Me and you whats going on? All we seem to know is how to show The feelings that are wrong
Be Here Now:
Wash your face in the morning sun Flash your pen at the song that I'm singing Touchdown bass living on the run Make no sweat at the hole that you're digging
Wrap up cold when it's warm outside Your shit jokes remind me of Digsy's Be my magic carpet ride Fly me down to capital city in the sun
Kicking up a storm from the day that I was born Sing a song for me one from 'Let It Be' Open up your eyes get a grip on yourself inside
All Around The World:
It's a bit early in the midnight hour for me To go through all the things that I want to be I don't believe in everything I see Y'know I'm blind so why d'you disagree
So take me away cos I just dont want to stay Cos all the lies you make me say Are getting deeper every day These are crazy days but they make me shine Time keeps rolling by
All Around The World, you've gotta spread the word Tell 'em what you heard You're gonna make a better day All Around The World, you've gotta spread the word Tell 'em what you heard You know it's gonna be okay
So what you gonna do when the walls come falling down? You never move you never make a sound So where you gonna swim with the ridges that you found? If you're lost at sea then I hope that you've drowned
It's Gettin' Better Man:
Say Something shout it from the roof tops off your head Make it sort of mean something make me understand or I'll forget The people here on life's beaches they wish upon the waves that hide the sand Let them know that life teaches you to build a castle in the hand
Maybe the songs that we sing are wrong Maybe the dreams that we dream are gone So bring it on home and it wont be long It's getting better man!
Hey! What was that you said to me? Just say the word and I'd be free? And where the stars are shining bright It's getting better man! And crashing in upon a wave It's calling out beyond the grave And We're the fire in the sky We're getting better man!
Build something build a better place and call it home Even if it means nothing you'll never-ever feel that you're alone
STANDING ON THE SHOULDERS OF GIANTS:
Go Let It Out:
Paint no illusion, try to click with whatcha got Taste every potion cos if yer like yerself a lot Go let it out, go let it in, go let it out
Life is precocious in a most perculiar way Sister psychosis don't got a lot to say She go let it out, she go let it in, she go let it out She go let it out, she go let it in, she go let it out
Is it any wonder why Princes & Kings Are clowns that caper in their sawdust rings And ordinary people that are like you and me We're the keepers of their destiny
I'm goin' leaving this city, I'm goin' drivin' outta town Your comin' with me the right time is always now To go let it out, go let it in, go let it out To go let it out, go let it in, go let it out
Is it any wonder why Princes and Kings Are clowns that caper in their sawdust rings Cos ordinary people that are like you and me We're the builders of their destiny We're the builders of their destiny We're the builders of their destiny We're the builders of their destiny
So go let it out - go let it in Go let it out - don't let it in Go let it out - go let it in Go let it out - don't let it - don't let it in
Who Feels Love:
Found what I'd lost inside My spirit has been purified Take a thorn from my pride And hand in hand we'll take a walk outside
Thank you for the sun the one that shines on everyone Who feels love Now there's a million years between my fantasies & fears I feel love
I'm leaving all that I see Now all my emotions fill the air I breath
Now you understand that this is not the promised land They spoke of There's nothing more to be If you can be the remedy who heals love
Put Yer Money Where Yer Mouth Is:
Put yer money where yer mouth is Yer mamma sez that you was real Put yer money where yer mouth is Yer mamma sez that you was real
Ready or not, come what may The bets are going down for judgement day So put yer money in yer mouth And your hands right upon the wheel
Put yer money where yer mouth is Yer pappa sez that you was real Put yer money where yer mouth is Yer pappa sez that you was real
Ready or not, and come what may You betcha going down on judgement day So put yer money in yer mouth And yer hands right upon the wheel
Little James:
Little James, we're all the same They always seem to look to us But we weren't meant to be grown ups Thank you for your smile You make it all worthwhile to us
You live for your toys, even though they make noise Have you ever played with plastercine Or even tried a trampoline Thank you for your smile You make it all worthwhile to us
I'm singing this song for you and your mum that's all 'Cos it won't be long before everyone is gone
Sailed out to sea, your mum you and me You swam the ocean like a child Life around us was so wild Thank you for your smile You make it all worthwhile to us
I'm singing this song for you and your mum that's all And it won't be long before everyone is gone
Gas Panic:
What tongueless ghost of sin crept through my curtains? Sailing on a sea of sweat on a stormy night I think he don't got a name but I can't be certain And in me he starts to confide
That my family don't seem so familiar And my enemies all know my name And if you hear me tap on your window Better get on yer knees and pray panic is on the way
My pulse pumps out a beat to the ghost dancer My eyes are dead and my throat's like a black hole And if there's a god would he give another chancer An hour to sing for his soul
Cos my family don't seem so familiar And my enemies all know my name And when you hear me tap on yer window Yer better get on yer knees and pray panic is on the way
Cos my family don't seem so familiar And my enemies all know my name And when you hear me tap on yer window Then you get on your knees and you better pray Cos my family don't seem so familiar And my enemies all know my name And when you hear me tap on your window Yer better get on yer knees and pray Panic is on the way Panic is on the way
Where Did It All Go Wrong:
You know that feeling you get You feel you're older than time You ain't exactly sure If you've been away a while
Do you keep the receipts For the friends that you buy And ain't it bittersweet You were only just getting by
But I hope you know That it won't let go It sticks around with you until the day you die And I hope you know that it's touch and go I hope the tears don't stain the world that waits outside Where did it all go wrong?
And until you've repaid The dreams you bought for your lies You'll be cast away Alone under the stormy skies
But I hope you know That it won't let go It sticks around with you until the day you die And I hope you know that it's touch and go I hope the tears don't stain the world that waits outside Where did it all go wrong?
Sunday Morning Call:
Here's another sunday morning call Yer hear yer head-a-banging on the door Slip your shoes on and then out you crawl Into a day that couldn't give you more But what for?
And in your head do you feel What you're not supposed to feel You take what you want But you won't get it for free You need more time Cos your thoughts and words won't last forever more But i'm not sure if it ever works out right But it's ok. It's all right
When yer lonely and you start to hear The little voices in your head at night You will only sniff away the tears So you can dance until the morning light At what price?
And in your head do you feel What you're not supposed to feel You take what you want But you won't get it for free You need more time Cos your thoughts and words won't last forever more But I'm not sure if it ever works out right But it's ok. It's all right
And in your head do you feel What you're not supposed to feel When you take what you want You don't get hope for free You need more time Cos your thoughts and words won't last forever more And I'm not sure if it'll ever, ever, ever work out right Will it ever, ever, ever work out right? Cos it never, never, never works out right
I Can See A Liar:
Baby the time is right to tell it all like it is And now that I feel god like there's nothing that can't be kissed The name of a lonely soul is scratched into my brain He thought he was king creole Until he found out, until he found out
He sits upon a throne He lives a sleazy lie But he's all alone again, again
I can see a liar, sitting by the fire Trouble in his heart, laughing at the thought Coming as he goes into overdose I wonder what he thinks of me?
Roll It Over:
I can give a hundred million reasons To build a barricade I blame it on the changing of the seasons The thoughts that I've conveyed
Does it make it all right? It doesn't make it all right
To roll it over my soul and leave me here Roll it over my soul and leave me here
Look around at all the plastic people Who live without a care Try to sit with me around my table But never bring a chair
Does it make it all right? It doesn't make it all right
To roll it over my soul and leave me here Roll it over my soul and leave me here
HEATHEN CHEMISTRY:
The Hindu Times:
I get up - when I'm down I can't swim - but my soul won't drown I do believe - I got flare I got speed and I walk on air
Cos God gimme soul and all rock'n'roll (babe) Cos God gimme soul and all rock'n'roll (babe)

There's a light - that shines on Shines - on - me - and it keeps me warm It gimme peace - I must say I can't sleep - cos the world won't wait
Force Of Nature:
Yeah I feel like the force of nature could make you sing like a bird released If what you seek is the wise man's treasure you know it's buried beneath your feet You know you look like faded picture I see the cracks freezing on your skin and as the world slowly turns and hits you that the thieves of the night are coming to take you in
For smoking all my stash and burning all my cash I bet you knew right away it's all over town that the sun's going down on the days of your easy life.
I bet you knew right away you dope you don't know where it's at It's all over town that the sun's gone down and it's high time to pray.

Stop Crying Your Heart Out:
Hold up hold on don't be scared You'll never change what's been and gone
May your smile. Shine on. Don't be scared Your destiny may keep you warm.
Cos all of the stars are fading away Just try not to worry you'll see them some day Take what you need and be on your way And stop crying your heart out
Get up. Come on why you scared You'll never change what been and gone
Song Bird: Talking to the songbird yesterday Flew me to a place not far away She's a little pilot in my mind Singing songs of love to pass the time
Gonna write a song so she can see Give her all the love she gives to me Talk of better days that have yet to come Never felt this love from anyone
She's not anyone
A man can never dream these kinds of things Especially when she came and spread her wings Whispered in my ear the things I'd like Then she flew away into the night
Gonna write a song so she can see Give her all the love she gives to me Talk of better days that have yet to come Never felt this love from anyone
She's not anyone
Little By Little:
We the people fight for our existence We don't claim to be perfect but we're free We dream our dreams alone with no resistance Faded like the stars we wish to be
Y'know I didn't mean what I just said But my God woke up on the wrong side of His bed And it just don't matter now
Little by little we gave you everything you ever dreamed of As little by little the wheels of your life have slowly fallen off Little by little you have to live it all in all your life And all the time I just ask myself why are you really here?
True perfection has to be imperfect I know that that sounds foolish but it's true The day has come and now you'll have to accept The life inside your head we gave to you
Probably All In The Mind:
Show me who you are I'll show you what you love I'll give you half the world if that's enough
Let me take you down Let me hear you smile Let me rest my head here for a while
In the end we'll leave it all behind Because the life I think I'm trying to find Is probably all in the mind
Show me who you are I'll show you what you love I'll give you all the world if that's enough
She Is Love:
Oh when the sunshine beckons to ya And your wings begin to unfold the thoughts you bring and the songs you sing are gonna keep me from the cold
And if the sword is among ya and its words may wound my soul you can fill me up with what you've got cos my heart's been keeping old
Born On A Different Cloud:
Born on a different cloud from the ones that have burst round town It's no surprise to me that yer classless, clever and free
Loaded just like the gun You're the hero that's still unsung Living on borrowed time You're my sun and you're gonna shine
Talking to myself again This time I think I'm getting through It's funny how you think It's funny when you do
Lonely soul Busy working overtime Nothing ever gets done Specially when your hands are tied
Lonely soul Baking up your mother's pride Nothing ever gets done Not until your war's won
Better Man:

The wind that brings on the change Is making me older The wind that brings on the rain Is taking me over

I'll paint you the picture 'Cause I don't think you live round here no more I've never even seen The key to the door We only get what we will settle for
While we're living The dreams we have as children Fade away While we're living The dreams we have as children Fade away While we're living The dreams we have as children Fade away, away, away They fade away, away, away

So what would you say if I said to you It's not in what you say it's in what you do You point the finger at me but I don't believe Bring it on home to where we found My head like a rock sitting upside down In my mind there is no time

I know a girl who's lost and lonely Sits by the phone on her own But the phone don't ring And the birds don't sing in her tree She lost herself in a haze of pity And doesn't know where to run Needs a headshrinker now And I think its time we had some fun
Lost in a fog Up a tree like a dog And I'm out of here I got no name And I feel no shame And I got no fear And I bow down To the tears of a clown Whatever's going down Is coming around I hope you don't regret today For the rest of your lives
For the rest of your lives For the rest of your lives For the rest of your lives

STEP OUT:
What she said She said to me Take me high on a mountain side She was dressed up in leopard skin And her soul would never be denied
I met her down the disco in a beat up car She was burning down the road She looked just like a star with a Jaguar She needs to lighten her load
And when you might Think you're gonna cry It will be all right Step out tonight
You might Think you're gonna cry It will be all right Step out tonight
What I said I said to her I'm alive when you walk that way Can you hear what I can hear? It's the sound of a brand new day
She met me down a disco in a beat up car I was burning down the road I can be a star in a Jaguar I need to lighten my load
Because you might think you're gonna cry It will be all right Step out tonight
You might Think you're gonna cry It will be all right Step out tonight
My whole life still sinking in the water I need a ship not your sweet lip tonight
You might Think you're gonna cry It will be all right Step out tonight
You might Think you're gonna cry It will be all right Step out tonight
UNDERNEATH THE SKY:
Underneath the sky of red Is a storyteller sleeping alone He has no face and he has no name And his whereabouts are sort of unknown
All he needs is his life ln a suitcase It belongs to a friend of a friend And as we drink to ourselves We'll amuse ourselves Underneath the sky, underneath the sky again Underneath the sky again
So wish me away to an unknown place Am I living in a land with no name I'll be making a start with a brand new heart Stop me making sense again
All we need is our lives in a suitcase They belong to a friend of a friend's And as we drink to ourselves We'll amuse ourselves Underneath the sky, underneath the sky again Underneath the sky again

THE FAME:
Breaks like glass But not in your hand They'll shoot you down Right where you stand And it don't care for what you wear Or which way you might sway It calls you up But not on the phone And they will drag you from your throne
And you may laugh while you sit there Sipping your champagne And they all laugh at your despair Sniffing your cocaine I'm a man of choice in an old Rolls Royce And I'm howling at the moon Is my happening to deafening For you? For you?
It's maybe The Fame It's walked out on your name It's sees you crying Never did explain Am I the name Blowing through you Like a hurricane
It's a shame It's a shame It's a shame
It will not fall Not from the sky And it don't eat no humble pie And you may have your quiet life But I bet you don't know why It makes you a mess You didn't believe You still don't know what makes me breathe

AS LONG AS THEY'VE GOT CIGARETTES IN HELL:
Spend you days just walking and shopping Depending on how much you're luck is in Spend the night-life table-hopping And trying to keep that bag of bones in trim
I don't mind not being immortal 'Cos it ain't all that as far as I can tell I don't mind not going to heaven As long as they've got cigarettes As long as they've got cigarettes in hell
And by the time we start getting used to it The dope that's forming on the windowsill Now we know we've got ourselves into The cage that keeps the mice on the treadmill

As soon as they come The feelings they go All alone, on a one way road

CARRY US ALL:
I heard a whisper on my radio But I paid no mind I just sat back and I let it go To catch the rain from a lonely waterfall But I might beware 'Cos they could drown me like a doll
They got me running in and out of time I feel like a Bona Fide Keeper of the right and wrong And I've known all along, but let me just make it clear
Everybody's gone for quick, sure fire solution But faith in any god is gonna bury us all No-one's gonna fight in a ten-bob revolution Have faith in what you've got and it will carry us all Carry us all
I slip my skin as the prophets reappear But I pay no mind I'm just trying to persevere With the sins I have to shake from me within Though I might beware 'Cos they're just trying to wear me thin
They got me running in and out of time I feel like a Bona Fide Keeper of the right and wrong And I've known all along, but let me just make it clear
Everybody's gone for quick, sure fire solution But faith in any god is gonna bury us all No-one's gonna fight in a ten-bob revolution Have faith in what you've got and it will carry us all Carry us all

JUST GETTING OLDER:
It's 9 o'clock I'm getting tired I'm sick of all my records and the clothes I bought today.
Am I cracking up or just getting older?
I'm staying in I can't be bothered making conversation with the friends that I don't know.
Am I cracking up or just getting older?
And I bet that this is how life turns out when you're finally grown. And you know if this is my life I'll sit around all day and I'll moan
I'm half way up to the bottom of another bottle of my next best favourite friend.
I'm not cracking up I'm just getting older
No I'm not cracking up I'm just getting older
No I'm not cracking up I'm just getting older
IDLER'S DREAM:
My heart it skips a beat when I behold The light that's shining through your eyes of gold
From heavenly blood you seem to spring from heavenly waters you can drink
I'll meet you on a day that never ends I'll greet you in a way that heaven meant
You lay me down gently on the leaves you cover me over in my sleep
I never did say and I wish I could I never could pray 'cos it's just no good I hope you don't break up my heart of stone I don't wanna scream out loud and wake up on my own.
And as I close my eyes and the sky turns red I realise just what you are: You're an idler's dream and your singing Shang-ri-la
Shang-ri-la
Shang-ri-la
THANKYOU FOR THE GOOD TIMES:
Who'll rise? It would be so nice to hear you say "Thank you for the good times" Before the good times fly away Your eyes Are telling lines from some of the stories on the way It's so nice But don't let the good times fly away
I drink to every sucker standing here among the few who try and cheat the years There's always one of us who's blown away Or strapped and stopped for breath along the way
Who'll rise? It would be so nice to hear you say "Thank you for the good times" Before the good times fly away
I drink to every sucker standing here among the few who try and cheat the years There's always one of us who's blown away Or stopped and strapped for cash along the way

Thank you for the good times Before the good times fly... away

There'll never be enough to learn the river's deep and the road is long and every which way we turn always seems insane but it makes me feel alive
Shout it out loud when I'm alive I Shout it out loud when I'm alive I Shout it out loud when I'm alive I Shout it out loud
As we wish the world away D'you think it's all a dream cos that's what it seems
Every night we hope and pray that we can do enough to keep our love

YOU'VE GOT THE HEART OF A STAR:
You're never gonna get along
Hanging on, thinking out loud,
You're never gonna get along, and be some one
Stuck in that crowd,
So you call out the feelings
You hope that don't ever exist,
And don't be, afraid of,
You're bones and your blisters
So come on, come on my brothers and sisters-
'Cos you can only be what you are-
You've got the heart of a star,
But the light never hits you.
BONUS TRACKS:
SAD SONG:
Sing a sad song In a lonely place Try to put a word in for me It's been so long Since I found this place You better put in two or three We as people, are just walking 'round Our heads are firmly fixed in the ground What we don't see Well it can't be real What we don't touch we cannot feel
Where we're living in this town The sun is coming up and it's going down But it's all just the same at the end of the day And we cheat and we lie Nobody says it's wrong So we don't ask why Cause it's all just the same at the end of the day We're throwing it all away We're throwing it all away We're throwing it all away at the end of the day
If you need it Something I can give I know I'd help you if I can If your honest and you say that you did You know that I would give you my hand Or a sad song In a lonely place I'll try to put a word in for you Need a shoulder? well if that's the case You know there's nothing I wouldn't do
Where we're living in this town The sun is coming up and it's going down But it's all just the same at the end of the day When we cheat and we lie Nobody says it's wrong So we don't ask why Cause it's all just the same at the end of the day
Don't throw it all away Don't throw it all away Don't throw it all away Don't throw it all away Throwing it all away Throwing it all away Throwing it all away
Throwing it all away Throwing it all away You're throwing it all away at the end of the day
BONEHEAD'S BANK HOLIDAY:
You know I need a little break To get away for a holiday So I can see the sun Cos in the sun they say it's fun If you can get some Well I could take a train or a boat or an aeroplane Or I could steal a car Cos in a car you can go far Just depends on what kind of car you are
La, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la What kind of car you are La, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la
I met a funny looking girl On a crowded beach in Spain Her name was Avaline She said she came to Spain to have a good time But she was with her mum Who had a face like a nun in pain She said her name was Dot She didn't half talk a lot I couldn't tell if she was mad or not
La, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la La, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la
Don't you know - I should have stayed in England On my polluted beach - with all my special friends Don't you know - I should have stayed in England With my big house and my big car And all my friend are there at the barÊ
La, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la La, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la
You know I need a little break To get away for a holiday So I can see the sun Cos in the sun they say it's fun If you can get some Well I could take a train or a boat or an aeroplane Or I could steal a car Cos in a car you can go far It just depends on what kind of car you are
