1. _ Poor Cow
Today is my birthday
I stay outside the hall
Inside sit the butterflies
For the butterfly ball
All the boys are graded now
They come in their white socks, flat tops
And somehow they find a placr
All the boys are winning now
They play all the tricks with smiles
And a sorry past
For poor caw
Their own room
And winter tales
Never touched these girls before
They hear the car stereo
And know what life is for
All the boys are weary now
Listening to the family sing song
Family say so
Must carve, must carve poor cow
Slice her, slice her up, poor cow
Slice her, slice her up, poor cow
Slice her, slice her up, poor cow
Today is my birthday
I stay outside the hall
Inside sit the butterflies
For the butterfly ball

2. _ Preyed Upon
When your life has all been token
And your stance is akin to broken hearts
You've grown weary - i'm not weary
I can take your part
It's eye-open time, sailor
When they want you to pretend
You were inside that playground
You may be old - but not so old
That i can't see
See your old freinds and it's as fresh as dew
But see what's new and it's all the same to you
Now i'm not choosy and i'm just half grown
I took the old man - i gave the old man
I took the old man back home
Safe with us to serenade
To hang around your black scarf and black ways
I have "no idea" he said, "no idea of what i'll do"
And talking less - it chases home
It chases dreams - but i have really no reason, no goal and so
If you "wanna" play real basic
If you "wanna" help us make it
Don't forget you're alone
Unless it's all alone
Don't forget you're alone
Unless it's all alone
You get preyed upon
Ohh oh
I need to complicate you
To make you hate the things you might have done
And come out into the morning
It's the sun you want
Not the foreign time

3. _ World Outside Your Window
Everyone has said that i might go
'cos my red suitcase and my ray-bans
Weren't quite so
I'd bear the heavy wind and rain that falls
I'll never come back again
'cos you know i laugh when winter shows her hand
Well, that picture framed the saddest thing you'll see
But it bought me time and a place that love could be
And since i'm going now please rearrange
'cos i'd like to think that things have changed
I don't believe you'll be open anymore
Tell me if, you want to see
A world outside your window
A world outside your window isn't free
And tell me if you wanna catch that feeling of redemption
That feeling of redemption doesn't do much for me
Well, everyone was hoping you would stay a while
Tell us 'bout that great land in the south
I see that man - now ain't he under offer?
I tell you child you go wash out your mouth
Tell me if, you want to see
A world outside your window
A world outside your window isn't free
And tell me if you wanna catch that feeling of redemption
That feeling of redemption doesn't do much for me
What can you say
I'm hiding in the belfry
What can you say - i want to catch time
How can you say you know anything about me
Well i knew about you - but i won't care about you
Everyone has come to see. well somethings have to do
Flowers out for this photographic haunt, but they all pass me by
But the age is not a funny game, it don't give such a buzz
And when i winced with ignorance
I had to kiss this dust

4. _ I Love You
Johnny was a peculiar guy
Brough up on love and the reasons why
But the reasons why ought not to be said
And so i'm left hands held to my head
I love you
I love you
I love you
It's a beautiful, beautiful, beautiful thing
It's a beautiful, beautiful thing
Chances, changes are all that you have
As you take the hard stuff and lie on your back
The smoothness, strangeness
Fits like a glove
But the comfort of tease
Still rises above
I love you
I love you
I love you
But is it possible, possible, possible babe?
Is it possible for you and me?
Gold and waves and betty blue
Are the images that lead to the clues of why
I can't love you
I can't love you
I can't love you
It isn't possible

5. _ Twist In My Sobriety
all god's children need travelling shoes
Drive your problems from here
All good people read good books
Now your conscience is clear
I hear you talk girl
Now your conscience is clear
In the morning i wipe my brow
Wipe the miles away
I like to think i can be so willed
And never do what you say
I'll never hear you
And never do what you say
Look my eyes are just holograms
Look your love has drawn red from my hands
From my hands you know you'll never be
More than twist in my sobriety
More than twist in my sobriety
More than twist in my sobriety
We just poked a little empty pie
For the fun people had at night
Late at night don't need hostility
The timid smile and pause to free
I don't care about their different thoughts
Different thoughts are good for me
Up in arms and chaste and whole
All god's children took their toll
Look my eyes are just holograms
Look your love has drawn red from my hands
From my hands you know you'll never be
More than twist in my sobriety
More than twist in my sobriety
More than twist in my sobriety
Cup of tea, take time to think, yeah
Time to risk a life, a life, a life
Sweet and handsome
Soft and porky
You pig out 'til you've seen the light
Pig out 'til you've seen the light
Half the people read the papers
Read them good and well
Pretty people, nervous people
People have got to sell
News you have to sell
Look my eyes are just holograms
Look your love has drawn red from my hands
From my hands you know you'll never be
More than twist in my sobriety
More than twist in my sobriety
More than twist in my sobriety

6. _ Cathedral Song
I saw you from the cathdral
You were watching me
And i saw from the cathedral
What i should be
So take my lies
And take my time
'cos all the others want to take my life
And i watch you with an intent, basic
It's the same for you
You hold your hand
And it's all fine - laced and
What would you make me do?
So take my lies
And take my time
'cos all the others want to take my life
Serious for the winter time
To wrench my soul
Whole cotton, whole cotton ears
But i know there must be
There must be, yes, i know there must be a place to go
You saw me from the cathedral
Well i'm an ancient heart
Yes, you saw me from the cathedral
Well here we are just falling apart
You catch me
I am tired
I want all that you are
I saw you from the cathedral
You were leaving me
And i saw from the cathedral
You could not see to see
So take my lies
And take my time
'cos all the others want to take my life

7. _ Sighing Innocents
Give me a stand
A standing ovation, baby
Give me a road
Which i can tail
You don't know nothing, baby
So don't pretend
Or you might pay
Cost
It's costing me nothing, baby
I might feel some shame
But i don't care
And if you won't mind
Just moving the fireside, baby
I'd rather be cold
Than lying over there
No, this ain't sighing innocents
This ain't sighing innocents
No this ain't sighing innocents
I'm just trying to follow you
And if you walk
I might just tag along
It only be shop talk, some
Well that's something to do
Or i might take a walk down
By the river, baby
But no i won't
No i won't be waiting for you
No, this ain't sighing innocents
This ain't sighing innocents
No this ain't sighing innocents
I'm just trying to follow you
Sorry but sense
That (no one will miss you)
That no one will miss you
If you die
They might send a wreath
They might send a reason
They might send a reason
But us, we know
Join in the sus
It's always the same man
He's taking a stroll
And then they tie him to his ghost
I know it's sad
But you never listen
No, you never listen
You just drive home

8. _ Valentine Heart
If i was a londoner, rich with complaint
Would you take me back to your house
Which is sainted with lust and the listless shade
If i could have held you once more with that light
It's nothing to you, but it keeps me alive
Like a valentine's day, it's a valentine's heart, anyway
The king and the ages, they fall by the plan
It's always the tired and the ordinary man
(it's the) challenge it's funny and such
I want to see you again
I want to see you again
It's so simple and plain
But i'll come back and see you again
The lie is the angel, it doesn't exist
I tell you it's funny but you like just to twist all my words
It's a shame you're so young
My word, it's a shame i'm so dumb
I figure a house with the smoke and the fence
The people round here would be pleased
Take my word on this
I would believe just in you, just believe in you
And five days to catch me around with my ring
As i visit the friendships which meant everything to the girl
With the clown's face, to the girl with the clowns face, round here

9. _ Good Tradition
There's a good tradition of love and hate staying by the fireside
There's a good tradition of love and hate staying by the fireside
And though the rain may fall - your father's calling you
You still feel safe inside
And though your ma's too proud - your brother's ignoring you
You still feel safe inside
Oh, was this solo?
Was this yesterday?
Was this true for you?
'cos while all the rest have taken time
This didn't do a lot for you
And the corners laced with memories
Tell you how it used to be
Your mother smiles, the children play, and all the bad things happen miles away
And strong feelings never bother you
You hold your head up while the rest of us try to
Oh, call the stations
Call the people
We all want to know
'cos while all the rest have taken time
You don't wanna know
Well, there's a good tradition of love and hate staying by the fireside
There's a good tradition of love and hate staying by the fireside
And though the rain may fall - your father's calling you
You still feel safe inside
And though your ma's too proud - your brother's ignoring you
You still feel safe inside
Oh, was this solo?
Was this yesterday?
Was this true for you?
'cos of all the choices you have made
This didn't do a lot for you

10. _ For All These Years
I got a scent on you. i got something here to show
(it's) somebody's slice of life
I had it tailor made, i had it soaken, shaken and shown around the world
And for all these things you tell me, well
I can't quite believe
You are still there and trying to be somebody
Always on the upkeep, always trying to reach the rest of us
We don't have anything to say, nothing to give
Well, it blows away
I have another chance, i may have two lives
But both my lives will be brief lives
And then, you all will wonder why
I was nearly 16 years old
You were only 17, life isn't so complicated
But then life isn't 'sposed to be
For all these years
For all these years
Could somebody tell them
To hurry on, hurry on down
Wouls somebody tell them to hurry on, hurry on down
Every censor, everybody loses their way
I have a wealth of material, i have a well of people to share with you
Every lover
Well they all tell lies
Yes, i have his wife in the background
But i have more than this, i have more than this
And if mr chaste, he has a past
Give it to me
I was nearly 16 years old
You were only 17, life isn't so complicated
But then life isn't 'sposed to be
For all these years
For all these years

11. _ He Likes The Sun
Some say the world goes crazy
It's summertime
I say i'm feeling lazy
Hammocks in mind
And i can't change a thing
So i won't stay around
If you can still feel so hot
Why don't you feel for me?
If you can feel so much
Why don't you let it out
And let me be alone again
I keep watch. that's alright
'cos it comes in this real night
He likes the sun
See the cornered clown
He likes the sun
Let us waste this town
And when it rains
You feel the click in his heart
And that's when the pain in mine will start
And that's when the pain in mine will start
I'm used to growing older
And feeling down inside
But yes, i know, well someone told
You should have seen him cry
Well that's not my life
I'm tired of chip inside and playing bronze for cool
Y'know that sometimes light
And sometimes you can just be that fool
Who can really say?
If i'm cross - it's a joke
If i'm lost - let it go up in smoke
He likes the sun
See the cornered clown
He likes the sun
Let us waste this town
And when it rains
You feel the click in his heart
And that's when the pain in mine will start
And that's when the pain in mine will start
Jump right out of your grass colours
And make like you were easy prey
And cheer us solemn of a possible
Is it possible?
I could really play could really play
All these things i say
Though not torn inside, though not torn
You just lie, lie low - lie low for me
I'm not in deeper waters - where everyone will claim
We used to know the daughter - throw it away it's such a shame
If you're feeling blue
And like icy looks and great command
He likes the way i'm true
But i know inside
This is a real life sham - but that's okay
And this song can't be sued
I assume - you get up and renew yourself
He likes the sun
See the cornered clown
He likes the sun
Let us waste this town
And when it rains
You feel the click in his heart
And that's when the pain in mine will start
And that's when the pain in mine will start
