1. _ Me And You (against The World)
If i could be two places at one time
I'd be with you
I've lost my heart i'm losing half my mind
But i don't care
Don't tell me don't ask me don't talk at all
Don't help me i don't know if i can stand
The bitter-sweetness of it all
I don't know i don't care don't even hear
What they all say
There's no past there's no future and no fear
What can they do
I'm helpless i can't talk or even stand
My heart won't start until i get from you
The look that says you love me too
Me and you against the world
I've read the bible and those books at school
But they don't make much sense of this
The finest minds are calling me a fool
But you destroy them with your kiss
Just one kiss

2. _ The Human Touch
Some say the world is spinning faster
Some say it isn't fast enough
Some people say they've got the answer
And some are scared to say they can't keep up
I read the paper but it still isn't clear
The bombs are falling but i'm still here
I know all the figures and i know all the facts
But all i can do is keep trying . . . .
To look for the human touch
Life is hard when you've got nothing
Life can be hard when you've got too much
Sometimes i wonder what's the difference
It's only better with someone to touch
I got the telephone stuck to my ear
I keep yelling but you don't hear
In all the universe i'm just a speck of dust
But all i can do is keep trying . . . .
To give you the human touch
You know we're nothing in the scheme of things
Just microchips in big machines
And the world is spinning round and round
But i know that we can slow it down
And i know that i can make you see
I'm on the side of you and me
And all i want to do
Listen to me . . .
Is give you . . . give you
Give you the human touch

3. _ Blaze Of Glory
Johnny was a young boy
With nothing much except a certain kind of look in his eye
He was discovered one day - you see he had a certain kind of appeal
For a certain kind of guy
Who gave him some advice on what to wear
And sent him out to make the young girls cry
And all the young boys who'd just been dumb and restless
Now they could identify
So tell me who'll take the blame
For the way things turned out
Well six long months passed and johnny was the biggest thing alive
And we loved johnny and we owned johnny
And no one knew how johnny felt inside
And johnny was so beautiful, he was like a god
And we all went along for the ride
And the ride started to go too fast
And johnny just conveniently died
And he went up in flames
He did what he had to do
And they say it's a tragic story
He just wasn't there one day
But he went out in a blaze of glory
And you and i - you and i just fade away
Well nowadays there's a lot of guys like johnny
They got it all worked out - like working 9 to 5
But they're all just cartoons - all think they're superman
But they can't even fly
And they say that johnny's ghost walks 'round in memphis
When the moon is full and high
And i wonder if he sees these jokers
And i wonder if he laughs or if he cries
Now he's an angel in flames
But what about you and me
And they say it's a tragic story
He just wasn't there one day
But he went out in a blaze of glory
And you and i - you and i just fade away

4. _ Down To London
Stop - what's that sound
It's the death rattle of this rusty old town
Stop - listen again
It's the sound of laughter all along the thames
Hey - what's my line
Do i have to stay here 'til the end of time
I'm - good lookin' and bright
I wanna see life after ten at night
So if they ask you where i am
I'm in the back of a transit van
In a squat on the earls court road
Gone down to london turning coal into gold
Down to london - down to london
Gone down to london to be the king
Hey - what's your name
The boys back home all seem to look the same
You - should stick with me
And one of us will make it, just you see
Stop - what's that sound
Seems like the sixties are still swingin' around
Hey - can you hear me back there
Or is there anybody left to care
So if you ask me where they are
They're hanging tough in a soho bar
Playing guitars in the underground
Gone down to london tryin' to chase that sound
Down to london - down to london
Gone down to london to be the king
So i ask you should i cry or laugh
Drinking tea in a kings cross caff
A leather jacket against the cold
Gone down to london turning coal into gold
Down to london - down to london
Gone down to london to be the king

5. _ Discipline
Discipline can stop my hunger
Discipline can quench my thirst
Discipline can make me stronger
If it doesn't kill me first
I'm gonna pump it up
Gotta keep my body from falling apart
I gotta keep it up
Discipline can stop my hunger
Discipline can quench my thirst
Discipline can make me stronger
If it doesn't kill me first
I'm gonna tie you up
Gonna keep you begging for the key to my heart
I gotta keep it up
But tonight i'm gonna be my only slave
Put on my cd of the sound of waves
And drift away
'til another day . . .
Discipline can stop my hunger
Discipline can quench my thirst
Discipline can make me stronger
If it doesn't kill me first

6. _ Acropolis Now

7. _ Nineteen Forever
Sometimes i feel so alive
Sometimes i see so clear
Just like the way we always were
So young and free from fear
I lose my fear of war and dying
And all the clouds just disappear
Only my mirror sees me crying
Each time i lose another year . . .
Wouldn't be a drag to be like you
Settling down and having kids
And telling them what to do
Well i'm gonna stay . . .19 forever
We can do magic in these times
Be what we want to be
We'll all be rock 'n' roll stars
Immortal on tv
And if you see me looking tired
I've just been sleeping thought the day
But i got something to keep me wired
So we can dance the night away
Wouldn't it be a drag to be like them
They're gonna sell out everything
But i won't get fooled again
Cause i'm gonna be . . .19 forever
You better believe it - you know my dream's still alive
You can love it or leave it
But i'm never gonna be 35

8. _ The Best I Can Do
I'll try to protect you
If idon't get too scared
I'll never neglect you
If my feelings are shared
I'll be right behind you
If you don't move too fast
And i'll try to remind you
That some things can last
I'll love you forever
Or at least many years
If you know i'll never
Take away all your fears
And i'll never roam
Not unless i have to
But i'll always come home
That's the best i can do
It's the best i can do

9. _ Sentimental Thing
We always were the kind of people
To take it hard when things would go wrong
Little things would bother me
And little things would make you cry
And after all the confrontations
When it comes time for saying goodbye
All that i can wonder
Is what do i do with these flowers
And what do i do with my evenings
And what do you do with that ring
I'm gonna go now
No you can't hold me
Not with such a sentimental thing
So tell me why i'm feeling nothing
And tell me how you can't even cry
Little things are logical
But if there's a god above then
Can it be that love was
Just another sentimental thing

10. _ Evil Empire
There's a country where no one knows
What's going on in the rest of the world
There's a country where minds are closed
With just a few asking questions
Like what do their leaders say
In sessions behind closed doors
And if this is the perfect way
Why do we need these goddamn lies
This doesn't go down too well
"we give you everything and you throw it back
Don't like it here you can go to hell
You're either with or against us . . ."
There's a country that's great and wide
It's got the biggest of everything
Try to attack it and you can't hide
Don't say that you haven't been warned
You can't hide in a gunman's mask
Or kill innocent folks and run
But if you're good at it they might ask -
Come on over to the other side
There's a country that's tired of war
There's a country that's scared inside
But the bank is open and you can draw
For guns to fight in their backyard
I could go on but what's the use
You can't fight them with songs
But think of this as just
Another tiny blow against the empire
Another blow against the evil empire
Just another blow against the evil empire

11. _ Rant And Rave
I'm gonna rant and rave
I'm gonna lose control if they get me mad
I'm staring at the tv screen
They're staring right back
I got a bottle in my hand
I think i'll blow them up
I'm gonna weep and wail
I'm gonna gnash my teeth
At the lies they tell
And half the people in the world
Don't even know where they are
Don't even know they're being had
I'm gonna wake them up
(believe me you'll find out
That everything's rotten
From bottom to top through and through
All gold is just glitter
All gains are ill-gotten
But now what the hell do we do . . .)
I'm gonna scream and shout
I'm gonna stamp my feet
'til a policeman comes
I don't care what they say
Don't care what they write down
Book of rules or book of life
I'm gonna tear them up
(now who wants to be just
A bug that they trample
Well you see what has happened of course
'cause instead of using the force of example
Now it's just the example of force . . .)

12. _ Tomorrow's World
Hey - did you ever see so many stars in the sky
Yeah - and can you imagine how many we can't even see
Imagine we're in the jiddle of the galaxy
Yeah - imagine how many blazing stars there'd be
We're gonna fly in tomorrow's world
And there'll be cities on the moon
No one'll die in tomorrow's world
And miracles will happen soon
In tomorrow's world
Hey - d'you remember that rocket they blasted into god knows where
Yeah - with the pictures for someone to find
With chemical symbols saying
Hi how you doin' to the folks out there
Yeah - they put the bach music in
Left all the shit behind
Sometimes i think we should be sending out an sos
But mostly i just think of all the things i can't wait to see
We're gonna live in tomorrow's world
We'll live on power from the sun
We're gonna live in tomorrow's world
And there'll be food for everyone
In tomorrow's world
