1. _ Why Worry
Baby i see this world has made you sad
Some people can be bad
The things they do, the things they say
But baby i'll wipe away those bitter tears
I'll chase away those restless fears
That turn your blue skies into grey
Why worry, there should be laughter after pain
There should be sunshine after rain
These things have always been the same
So why worry now
Baby when i get down i turn to you
And you make sense of what i do
I know it isn't hard to say
But baby just when this world seems mean and cold
Our love comes shining red and gold
And all the rest is by the way
Why worry, there should be laughter after pain
There should be sunshine after rain
These things have always been the same
So why worry now

2. _ Fade To Black
(mark knopfler)
I wonder where you are tonight
You're probably on the rampage somewhere
You have been known to take delight
In gettin' in somebody's hair
And you always had the knack
Fade to black
I bet you already made a pass
I see a darkened room somewhere
You run your finger round the rim of his glass
Run your fingers through his hair
They scratch across his back
Fade to black
Well maybe it's all for the best
But i wish i'd never been lassooed
Maybe it's some kind of test
But i wish i'd never been tattooed
Or been to hell and back
Fade to black

3. _ Pyroman
================
PYROMAN
================
I'm here to talk about the state of desire
Only thing I think about is fuel for fire
You're only ruining me by calling me names
all you're doing is fighting the flames
Cos I'm a Pyroman I'll burn downtown I'm a Pyroman
Hose me down!
Sometimes I wonder if I'm ever gonna learn
The only thing im thinking about is something to burn
Any other witness means nothing to me
dont give it up till I'm free and released
I'm a Pyroman I'll burn downtown I'm a Pyroman
Hose me down!
I'm a dog, i'm a dog, in these days
Walking down the street if anybody plays
It all burns for all that is worth it all burns
Well it's the greatest show on Earth
And I'm a Pyroman I'll burn downtown I'm a Pyroman
Hose me down!
Its my life (blood?) mister
Speak and drink to me
I'll come and take it mister
From across the sea
Cos there is one thing mister
One thing I have learned
The rules go out the window when crude is concerned
cos its my secret/sacred? plan yeah
I'll burn downtown I'm a Pyroman
Hose me down! Hose me down !

4. _ Down To The Waterline
Sweet surrender on the quayside
You remember we used to run and hide
In the shadow of the cargoes i take you one time
And we're counting all the numbers down to the waterline
Near misses on the dogleap stairways
French kisses in the darkened doorways
A foghorn blowing out wild and cold
A policeman shines a light upon my shoulder
Up comes a coaster fast and silent in the night
Over my shoulder all you can see are the pilot lights
No money in our jackets and our jeans are torn
Your hands are cold but your lips are warm
She can see him on the jetty where they used to go
She can feel him in the places where the sailors go
When she's walking by the river and the railway line
She can still hear him whisper
Let's go down to the waterline

5. _ Nobody's Got The Gun
Nobody's got the gun
Nobody's trying to get the drop on anyone
Nobody's standing out on main street
With the sun blazing down
Saying "there's only room for one of us in this here town"
Nobody's got the be the number one
Nobody's got the gun
She may not understand
And she may want you eating from her hand
If she's got you in a corner
And you can smell the smoke and flame
You reach for your revolver
To do the same
You'll blow your love away forever, number one
Nobody's got the gun
You may think love is hard enough
You may never get to rehearse
And you can do without this stuff
Making everything worse
She's just the same as you
She needs your love just like you want her to
You can't go playing poker
With a pistol in your sleeve
You can't make somebody love you
By threatening to leave
If you want a love forever, number one
Nobody's got the gun

6. _ Iron Hand
With all the clarity of dream
The sky so blue, the grass so green
The rank and file and the navy blue
The deep and strong, the straight and true
The blue line they got the given sign
The belts and boots march forward in time
The wood and leather the club and shield
Swept like a wave across the battlefield
Now with all the clarity of dream
The blood so red, the grass so green
The gleam of spur on the chestnut flank
The cavalry did burst upon the ranks
Oh the iron will and the iron hand
In england's green and pleasant land
No music for the shameful scene
That night they said it had even shocked the queen
Well alas we've seen it all before
Knights in armour, days for yore
The same old fears and the same old crimes
We haven't changed since ancient times

7. _ Eastbound Train
It was new cross station, i was going on home
Saw you get your ticket, standing on your own
Here come the train about 02:44
I couldn't get a smoker, you took another car
Yeah, the end of the line, we both had to change
And you're standing right behind me
I'm a feeling kinda strange
We got to mile end road, my heart skipped a beat
Standing right behind me, i'm a shakin' in my seat
3-4 minutes and the train comes through
I'm ridin' on the central, i'm a-lookin' at you
Woman on the eastbound train
Sometimes i wanna see you again
Now i couldn't read a paper, you couldn't read a book
Kept on taking me another look
You got off the train, you never looked behind
I tried, but i can't get you out of my mind
Woman on the eastbound train
Sometimes i wanna see you again
Well i got one more thing i wanna say before i go
If you get the message on the radio
You can write a letter, get in touch with me
Leave your number with the company, yeah
Woman on the eastbound train
Sometimes i wanna see you again

8. _ Metroland
Yearning we were yearning
Green light blinding on the rail
Burning we were burning
And the line unwinding to the holy grail
To the future gleaming on a blue horizon
And a golden girl on golden sand
Dreaming fantasizing
In another world from metroland
I've danced in rain and i've been django
And i've got laid
I've been a rolling stone
I've been verlaine
And i've been rimbaud
Not afraid to walk alone
And now i take my midnight ramble
Do i fold or play what's in my hand
What's at stake and what's the gamble
Do i stay in metroland
Dreams yesterday's laughter
Ghosts and lovers come back to play
But dreams have a morning after
And run for cover
In the light of day
I got something real worth holding on to
I can belong to and understand
I've made my deal
I will go on to
Make my peace with metroland

9. _ Run Me Down
You gotta run me down you gotta run me down
If you want to contact me you gotta run me down
I got work to do i'm the busiest man in town
If you want to contact me you gotta run me down
When i gets my dough i'm kinda hard to find
If you want me to pay your bills you gotta run me down
Now the rootest he crowed and them old hens looked around
Said if you want to make love you gotta run me down
When i had my money you used to follow me around
Now i have got broke you gotta run me down

10. _ No Wonder He's Confused
Well, he's got to be assertive
But never dominate
But he's got to be receptive
He understand he must relay
And if you get too much protection
You feel your freedom is abused
Well he is everything you're looking for, baby
No wonder he's confused
He can thrill you like a stranger
He can fill your fantasy
You want an element of danger
But you want security
Your love is thrill and dedication
He is good at keeping you amused
Well he is everything you're looking for
No wonder he's confused
It takes a little understanding
When you love each other so
You got the right to be demanding
But how is he supposed to know
Well, sometime you want a rebel
Sometime you want a steady hand
You play the handsome devil
Play the boy, play the man
And if you take the wrong direction
Is he gonna be accused
He is not everything you're looking for
No wonder he is confused
Yeah, he is not everything you're looking for
No wonder he is confused

11. _ Wag The Dog
Now you can do the watusi
You can do it if you try
Any puppy dog or pussy
Can do the jerk or do the fly
Now you can do the wooly bully
But can you pull the wooly wooly
Can you wag, can you wag the dog
You got the shimmy and the hustle
It's all the rage downtown
Yeh, you don't have to have the muscle
To get into the mess around
'cos you can do the wooly bully
But can you pull the wooly wooly
Can you wag, can you wag the dog
So make him sit, make him stay
Come to heel, go to play
Roll him over, lie still
Make him go kill, attaboy
Wag that dog, baby
You have had the duck and mashed potato
Funky chicken on a roll
Move on up a little later
To the monkey and the stroll
Now you can do the wooly bully
But can you pull the wooly wooly
Can you wag, can you wag the dog
Now go bow, bow wow wow
Now go woof, woof woof woof
Yeh, that's right, wag the dog
The locomotion boogaloo
The hully gully and the limbo too
Wag that dog
Yeh, hitchhike for me baby
Now we're barefootin'
The funky funky penguin
That's the bug, and that's the frug
Yeh, but can you wag
Wag the dog, can you wag the dog
Wag the dog, can you wag the dog

Will you and your friend come around
Are you and your friend gonna get on down
Will you and your friend come around

Or are you and your friend gonna get on down

Still see it in my mind
You got my imagination

14. _ Your Latest Trick
All the late night bargains have been struck
Between the satin beaus and their belles
And prehistoric garbage trucks
Have the city to themselves
Echoes roars dinosaurs
They're all doing the monster mash
And most of the taxis and the whores
Are only taking calls for cash
I don't know how it happened
It all took place so quick
But all i can do is hand it to you
And your latest trick
My door was standing open
Security was laid back and lax
But it was only my heart got broken
You must have had a pass key made out of wax
You played robbery with insolence
And i played the blues in twelve bars down lover's lane
And you never did have the intelligence to use
The twelve keys hanging off my chain
I don't know how it happened
It all took place so quick
But all i can do is hand it to you
And your latest trick
Now it's past last call for alcohol
Past recall has been here and gone
The landlord finally paid us all
The satin jazzmen have put away their horns
And we're standing outside of this wonderland
Looking so bereaved and so bereft
Like a bowery bum when he finally understands
The bottle's empty and there's nothing left
I don't know how it happened
It was faster than the eye could flick
But now all i can do is hand it to you
And your latest trick

15. _ Love Over Gold
You walk out on the high wire
You're a dancer on thin ice
You pay no heed to the danger
And less to advice
Your footsteps are forbidden
But with knowledge of your sin
You throw your love to all the strangers
And caution to the wind
And you go dancing through doorways
Just to see what you will find
Leaving nothing to interfere
With the crazy balance of your mind
And when you finally reappear
At the place where you came in
You've thrown your love to all the strangers
And caution to the wind
It takes lover over gold
And mind over matter
To do what you do that you must
When the things that you hold
Can fall and be shattered
Or run through your fingers like dust

16. _ Millionaire Blues
I woke up this morning, my jacuzzi wouldn't work
Then the butler quit on me, man, can you believe it? jerk!
Must've been my artistic temperament he couldn't take
How come nobody wants to give me a break?
I got the blues right there, mean and low
I'm as low as the heels of my alligator shoes
You should know how it feels to have these millionaire blues
Millionaire blues
Well, i found one of my bathrooms and i made it to the sink
I called one of my managers up and i poured myself a drink
Oh, i swear i'd kill that little weasel if i could
Checked myself in the mirror - my hair was looking good, but
I had the blues right there, mean and mean and mean and low
As low as the heels on my alligator shoes
You should know how it feels to have these millionaire blues
Millionaire blues
Get down!
Well, so much for breakfast, i couldn't face lunch
I thought i'd raise my spirits with a little champagne brunch
I take the lamborghini, the flunky parks the car
Can you believe it, man, this other monkey won't let me in the bar!
I said, i said, 'don't you know who i am, man?' and he says, 'no'
No! can you believe it?
I'm as low as the heels of these alligator shoes
You should know how it feels to have these millionaire blues
Millionaire blues, to have these millionaire blues
Millionaire blues
Bad, bad!
That's bad! yeah
So hard
It's hard sometimes for a boy
Ah, i like that
That's good
Get down!
You're making a very big mistake, man
Oh yeah
You'll never work in this town again!
All right

17. _ Badges, Posters, Stickers, T-shirts
Me and my mate we think you're great
Some we like and some we hate
I know him i've seen him on the adverts
Got any badges posters stickers or t-shirts
You were bloody great last time you come
I thought me 'ead was stuck in the bass drum
Bloody loud, me bloody head hurts
Got any badges posters stickers and t-shirts
So how'd you get a start in show biz
My mate's as good on the drums as he is
My mate thinks i'm bloody cracked
Please sign my jacket on the back
All them badges made of plastic
I think they're great, just fantastic
I'm unemployed, he's still at school
He gets annoyed 'cause i'm such a fool
You don't half sweat a lot up there
Have you got showers in here?
You're bloody great, my bloody head hurts
Got any badges posters stickers and t-shirts
Yeah, me and my mate like ac-dc
Hot & sweaty, loud & greasy
My mom says we're a pair of perverts
Got any badges posters stickers and t-shirts
C'mon mister
We hitch-hiked here in pouring rain
Now we've missed the frigging train
Hey! can i have one of them lagers?
Thanks very much, mate. can 'e have one?

18. _ Creole Angel
(sonny landreth)
Bottle rocket combo got a corner on the crowd
Under her old balcony above a bar called
The black cat prowl
Setts off memories how she laughed every time
I'd break her silence with a piece of my mind
A callin'
Creole angel come on down
Pray tell are you ready now?
Dusty saint on the dashboard
Will bless the berth of my old ford
Creole angel northbound
Even now i hear the sound
Of open arms like wings apart
Taking off with a jump start
Creole angel my creole angel
Jump start baby
It's a jet stream of conscious
Out of body tale
Through the natchez trace
Like a vapor trail
We saw the steam rise and the mercury fall
Between new orleans and old montreal
I remember
Creole angel come on down
Pray tell are you ready now?
Dusty saint on the dashboard
Will bless the berth of my old ford
Creole angel northbound
Even now i hear the sound
Of open arms like wings apart
Taking off with a jump start
Creole angel my creole angel

19. _ Water Of Love
High and dry in the long hot day
Lost and lonely every way
Got the flats all around me sky up above
I need a little water of love
I've been too long lonely and my heart feels pain
Crying out for some soothing rain
I believe i have taken enough
I need a little water of love
Water of love deep in the ground
No water here to be found
Some day baby when the river runs free
It'll carry that water of love to me
There's a bird up in a tree sitting up high
Waiting for me to die
If i don't get some water soon
I'll be dead and gone in the afternoon
Once i had a woman i could call my own
Once i had a woman now my woman is gone
Once there was a river now there's a stone
You know it's evil when you're living alone

20. _ One More Matinee
Here's one of the two of us
In 1954 don't laugh
I keep all of the pictures
Are you going to take a photograph
Here's something nice for you
A dear old thing came to a show
Last time here we did
An interview on local radio
Make yourself at home my darling
Come on in
Hand me down that jar love
Can i offer you a gin
We're proud to be the oldest
Ugly sisters in variety
There's not the glamour now you see
What happened to society
There's another light bulb gone
They don't all answer to the switch
I don't know how we carry on
And her she couldn't care the bitch
But in a while the old boys
In the band began to play
And in a while the houselights
And the curtains slide away
And something's going to happen
To make your whole life better
Your whole life better one day
Something's going to happen
To make your whole life better
Your whole life better one day
Now the landlady's all squared away
It's just a temporary deal
I'm afraid tonight it's take-away
You see there is no evening meal
Don't worry dear you shall go to the ball
I think the fairy said
These suitcases have seen it all
From under someone else's bed
You want to smile those tears away
Now don't you cry
You want to know what i say
I say never say die
'cos something's going to happen
To make your whole life better
Your whole life better one day
Something's going to happen
To make your whole life better
Your whole life better one day

(whitcup / powell)
Bewildered
Lost in a dream of you
Where is the love i once knew
Why did we part
Bewildered
I'm helpless without you dear
Wishing your heart could hear
What's in my heart
Why must i have sleepless nights
And endless days
But love, you took my soul
Without a thought
I'm in the dark
Bewildered
I need your guiding hand
I will never understand
Why did you leave me bewildered
Why must i have sleepless nights
And endless days
But love, you took my soul
Without a thought
I'm in the dark
Bewildered
I need your guiding hand
I will never understand
How could you leave me bewildered

22. _ Lady Writer
Lady writer on the tv
Talk about the virgin mary
Reminded me of you
Expectations left to come up to yeah
Lady writer on the tv
Yeah, she had another quality
The way you used to look
And i know you never read a book
Just the way that her hair fell down around her face
Then i recall my fall from grace
Another time, another place
Lady writer on the tv
She had all the brains and the beauty
The picture does not fit
You talked to me when you felt like it
Just the way that her hair fell down around her face
Then i recall my fall from grace
Another time, another place
Yes and your rich old man
You know he'd call her a dead ringer
You got the same command
Plus you mother was a jazz singer
Just the way that her hair fell down around her face
Then i recall my fall from grace
Oh yeah, another time, another place
Lady writer on the tv
She knew all about a history
You couldn't hardly write your name
I think i want you just the same as the
Lady writer on the tv
Talking about the virgin mary
Yeah you know i'm talking about you and me
And the lady writer on the tv
Lady writer on the tv
Talking about the virgin mary
Yeah you know i'm talking about you and me
And the lady writer on the tv

23. _ Batting For England

24. _ Lions
Red sun go down way over dirty town
Starlings are sweeping around crazy shoals
A girl is there high heeling across the square
Wind blows around in her hair and the flags upon the poles
Waiting in the crowd to cross at the light
She looks around to find a face she can like
Church bell clinging on trying to get a crowd for evensong
Nobody cares to depend upon the chime it plays
They're all in the station praying for trains
Congregation late again
It's getting darker all the time these flagpole days
Drunk old soldier he gives her a fright
He's a crazy lion howling for a fight
Strap hanging gunshot sound
Doors slamming on the overground
Starlings are tough but the lions are made of stone
Her evening paper is horror torn
But there's hope later for capricorns
Her lucky stars give her just enough to get her home
Then she's reading about a swing to the right
But she's thinking about a stranger in the night
I'm thinking about the lions tonight
What happened to the lions

(ry cooder)
Some people preaching
They do very well
They take all your money
And you can go to hell
And that's all
That's all
When you could have jesus
And that's all
You can go to your college
You can go to your school
If you ain't got jesus
You're just an educated fool
And that's all
That's all
You gotta have jesus now
And that's all
If you pardon me sir
You ain't doin' too well
You spend your whole life sinning
And you're going to hell
And that's all
But that ain't all
Cuz you could have jesus now
And that's all
It's good to stand together
It's bad to stand apart
The only ones going to heaven
Are the pure in heart
And that's all
That's all
You better get jesus now
And that's all
Jesus is coming back on the dividing day
Taking in the sheep
Turning the goats away
That'll be all now
That'll be all
You better take jesus now
And that's all

29. _ Private Investigations
It's a mystery to me - the game commences
For the usual fee - plus expenses
Confidential information - it's in a diary
This is my investigation - it's not a public inquiry
I go checking out the reports - digging up the dirt
You get to meet all sorts in this line of work
Treachery and treason - there's always an excuse for it
And when i find the reason i still can't get used to it
And what have you got at the end of the day?
What have you got to take away?
A bottle of whisky and a new set of lies
Blinds on the window and a pain behind the eyes
Scarred for life - no compensation
Private investigations

Now i can talk to you serious
I can talk to you nice
But when it comes to love
You won't take good advice

You can't make him drink

I tell you what!
They don't mess with me, i'm a wild man, son
I got me my very own anti tank gun
I got a jack rabbit with it, guess he was a mean one
Yeah, i've always been a sportsman
Now, there wasn't much left when i got to him
Them big old shells didn't just go through him
Just lumps of fur and that was it
Guess you could say he sure took a hit, alright
Yeah, you want to see my fire power, see my collection
Cause that's my thing, man, perfection
Now i'm talking power in the barrel of a gun
I'll blow anything i want to kingdom come
Ba ba boom
Ba ba ba ba bomb
And i'll blow anything i want
To kingdom come
Yeah, all you got to do is squeeze on the trigger
And a little bitty human get a whole lot bigger
Cause there's a time for talking and a time to shoot them down
And this mama-jama don't pussy foot around, alright
Yeah, let them laugh, let them say we're strange
Me and my buddies on the rifle range
But you won't be laughing when it hits the fan
You're going to want to be a survivor, man
Yeah, you got to see my fire power, see my collection
Cause that's my thing, man, perfection
Now, i'm talking power in the barrel of a gun
I'll blow anything i want to kingdom come
Ba ba boom
Ba ba ba ba bomb
And i'll blow anything i want
To kingdom come
Ba ba ba ba boom
I say we ought to drop the bomb
Yes, and i'll blow anything i want
To kingdom come

33. _ Les Boys
Les boys do cabaret
Les boys are glad to be gay
They're not afraid now
Disco bar in germany
Les boys are glad to be
Upon parade now
Les boys got leather straps
Les boys got ss caps
But they got no gun now
Get dressed up get a little risque
Got to do a little s & m these days
It's all in fun now
Les boys come on again
For the high class whores
And the businessmen
Who drive in their mercedes benz
To a disco bar in old munchen
They get the jokes that the d.j. makes
They get nervous and they make mistakes
They're bad for business
Some tourist take a photograph
Les boys don't get one laugh
He says they're useless
Late at night when they've gone away
Les boys dream of jean genet
High heel shoes and a black beret
And the posters on the wall that say
Les boys do cabaret
Les boys are glad to be gay

37. _ Ride Across The River
I'm a soldier of freedom in the army of man
We are the chosen, we're the partisan
The cause it is noble and the cause it is just
We are ready to pay with our lives if we must
Gonna ride across the river deep and wide
Ride across the river to the other side
I'm a soldier of fortune, i'm a dog of war
And we don't give a damn who the killing is for
It's the same old story with a different name
Death or glory, it's the killing game
Gonna ride across the river deep and wide
Ride across the river to the other side
Nothing gonna stop them as the day follows the night
Right becomes wrong, the left becomes the right
And they sing as they march with their flags unfurled
Today in the mountains, tomorrow the world
Gonna ride across the river deep and wide
Ride across the river to the other side

Blues stay away from me
Blues why don't you let me be
Don't know why
You keep on haunting me
Love was never meant for me
True love was never meant for me
Seems somehow
We never can agree
Life is full of misery
Dreams are like a memory
Bringing back
Your love that used to be
Tears so many i can't see
Years don't mean a thing to me
Time goes by
And i still can't be free

Bella donna's on the high street
Her breasts upon the off beat
And the stalls are just the side shows
Victoriana's old clothes
And yes her jeans are tight now
She gotta travel light now
She's gotta tear up all her roots now
She got a turn up for the boots now
Yeah she thinks she's tough
She ain't no english rose
But the blind singer
He's seen enough and he knows
Yes and he do a song
About a long gone irish girl
Ah but i got one for you portobello belle
She sees a man upon his back there
Escaping from a sack there
And bella donna lingers
Her gloves they got no fingers
Yeah, the blind man singing irish
He get his money in a tin dish
Just a corner serenader
Upon a time he could have made her, made her
Yeah, she thinks she's tough
She ain't no english rose
Ah, but the blind singer
He's seen enough and he knows
Yes and do a song
About a long gone irish girl
Ah but i got one for you portobello belle
Yes and the barrow boys are hawking
And a parakeet is squawking
Upon a truck there is a rhino
She get the crying of a wino
And then she hear the reggae rumble
Bella donna's in the jungle
But she is no garden flower
There is no distress in the tower
Oh, bella donna walks
Bella donna taking a stroll
But she don't care about your window box
Or your button hole
Yes and she sing a song about a long gone irish girl
Ah but i got one for you portobello belle

41. _ Planet Of New Orleans
Standin' on the corner
Of toulouse and dauphine
Waitin' on marie-ondine
I'm tryin' to place a tune
Under a louisiana moonbeam
On the planet of new orleans
In a bar they call the saturn
And in her eyes of green
And somethin' that she said in a dream
Inside of my suit i got my mojo root
And a true love figurine
For the planet of new orleans
New orleans - the other planet
With other life upon it
And everythin' that's shakin' in between
If you should ever land upon it
You better know what's on it
The planet of new orleans
Now i'm tryin' to find my way
Through the rain and the steam
I'm lookin' straight ahead through the screen
And then i heard her say
Somethin' in the limousine
'bout takin' a ride across the planet of new orleans
If she was an ace
And i was just a jack
And the cards were never seen
We could have been the king and the queen
But she took me back to her courtyard
Where magnolia perfume screams
Behind the gates and the granite
Of the planet of new orleans

Can't find no sleeves for my records
Can't get no laces for my shoes
Can't get no fancy notes
On my blue guitar
Can't get no antidote for blues
Can't find the reasons for your actions
Or i don't much like the reasoning you use
Somehow your motives are impure
Or somehow i can't find the cure
Can't find no antidote for blues
They say it's mostly vanity
That writes the plays we act
They tell me that's what everybody knows
There's no such thing as sanity
And that's the sanest fact
That's the way the story goes
Can't get no remedy on my tv
There's nothing but the same old news
They can't find a way to be
One world in harmony
Can't get no antidote for blues

She treats me right and loves me all the time
Sometimes i'm broke and blue as i can be

Sometimes i'm broke and blue as i can be
But still my baby she looks after me
She walked in the rain till her feet got soaking wet
She walked in the rain till her feet got soaking wet
She walked in the rain till her feet got soaking wet
And this she said to every man she met
Mister change a dollar - gimme a lousy dime
Mister change a dollar - gimme a lousy dime
Mister change a dollar - gimme a lousy dime
So i can feed that hungry man of mine

Well, the priest he cries
Virgin ascending to the skies tonight
All day long
I have passed my time alone
And when the church bell rung
I stayed out on the tower
In a dying sun
Now come on woman, come follow me home
Well i don't need no priest
But i love all of the people
Yes i share the feast
So drink up my wine
Yes and the song in my bones
I know the way
I can see by the moonlight
Clear as the day
Now come on woman, come follow me home

Crying, lord, i wonder will i ever get back home, lord, lordy, lord

I looked all over, how long has this east-bound train been gone?
It's done taken your fairo, blowed its smoke on you
It's done taken your fairo, blowed its smoke on you, lord, lordy, lord
Lord, i asked the conductor, - could i ride the blinds?
Spoken: -want to know, can a broke man ride the blinds

When the green, green spring
Is waiting for the sun to shine
It knows the sun will shine
In time... in time
How long until the dawn?
Is there any sign?
How long until your love will be mine?
The sweetest dream
I ever dreamed in all my life
Was one of having you
In time... in time
Are you ever gonna wake up
From the sleep you sleep?
How long until your love will be mine?
Be mine
Be mine
How long until your love will be mine?
I've heard it said
That a thousand years is like a day
Just a twinkle of an eye
In time... in time
Just a moment full of grace
My whole life would be
If you would say your love could be mine
Be mine
Be mine
How long until your love will be mine?
Be mine
Be mine
How long until your love will be mine?

48. _ On Every Street
There's gotta be a record of you someplace
You gotta be on somebody's books
The lowdown - a picture of your face
Your injured looks
The sacred and profane
The pleasure and the pain
Somewhere your fingerprints remain concrete
And it's your face i'm looking for on every street
A ladykiller - regulation tattoo
Silver spurs on his heels
Says - what can i tell you, as i'm standing next to you
She threw herself under my wheels
Oh it's a dangerous road
And a hazardous load
And the fireworks over liberty explode in the heat
And it's your face i'm looking for on every street
A three-chord symphony crashes into space
The moon is hanging upside down
I don't know why it is i'm still on the case
It's a ravenous town
And you still refuse to be traced
Seems to me such a waste
And every victory has a taste that's bittersweet
And it's your face i'm looking for on every street

The sky is crying the streets are full of tears
Rain come down wash away my fears
And all this writing on the wall
Oh i can read between the lines
Rain come down forgive this dirty town
Rain come down and give this dirty town
A drink of water a drink of wine
If i been hard on you i never chose to be
I never wanted no one else
I tried my best to be somebody you'd be close to
Hand in hand like lovers are supposed to
As you'd sleep i'd think my heart would break in two
I'd kiss your cheek i'd stop myself from waking you
But in the dark you'd speak my name
You'd say baby what's wrong?
Oh here i am baby i'm coming back for more
I'm like a wave that's got to roll into the shore
Yes and if my love's in vain how come my love is so strong?
Now you and me go parallel together and apart
And you keep your perfect distance and it's tearing at my heart
Did you never feel the distance
You never tried to cross no line
Now it's another dirty river and another dirty scar
And i don't know who's kissing you and i don't know where you are
So far from home don't you think of me sometime
Sky is crying see the streets are full of tears
Rain coming down to wash away my fears
And all this writing on the wall
Oh i can read between the lines

51. _ In The Gallery
Harry made a bareback rider proud and free upon a horse
And a fine coalminer for the ncb that was
A fallen angel and jesus on the cross
A skating ballerina you should have seen her do the skater's waltz
Some people have got to paint and draw
Harry had to work in clay and stone
Like the waves coming to the shore
It was in his blood and in his bones
Ignored by all the trendy boys in london and in leeds
He might as well have been making toys or strings of beads
He could not be in the gallery
And then you get an artist says he doesn't want to paint at all
He takes an empty canvas and sticks it on the wall
The birds of a feather all the phonies and all of the fakes
While the dealers they get together
And they decide who gets the breaks
And who's going to be in the gallery
No lies he wouldn't compromise
No junk no bits of string
And all the lies we subsidise
That just don't mean a thing
I've got to say he passed away in obscurity
And now all the vultures are coming down from the tree
So he's going to be in the gallery

And she was made in heaven
Heaven's in the world

She's my lover she's a friend of mine
She says hey mister you wanna take a walk
In the wild west end sometime
And i get trouble with my breathing
She says boys don't know anything
But i know what i want
I want everything
Well i feel so good cos i feel so good
And i feel so good cos it feels so right
I was made to go with my girl
Like a saxophone was made to go with the night
And she can raise one eyebrow
Put her hand on my hip
And i close one eye now
Sweat on her lip
And i surrender to the fever
I surrender to the will of the night
She love me so tender i got to believe her
Love? expresso love's alright
I don't want no sugar in it

Scaring the pedestrians for a minute
Crossing up progress driving on the grass
Leaving just enough room to pass

Oh yeah, once upon a time in the west
Yes it's no use saying that you don't know nothing
It's still gonna get you if you don't do something
Sitting on a fence that's a dangerous course
Oh, you could even catch a bullet from the peace-keeping force
Even the hero gets a bullet in the chest
Oh yeah, once upon a time in the west
Mother mary your children are slaughtered
Some of you mothers ought to lock up your daughter
Who's protecting the innocenti
Heap big trouble in the land of plenty
Tell me how we're gonna do what's best

Skint in a material world
I did a warehouse stint for southsea girl
It was hong kong clothes for cash
Everybody got treated worse than trash
Punch the card in the company clock
Load the trolleys and the company trucks
And around and around the whole day through
And you couldn't sit down when there was nothing to do
Well they had beaten up people from every land
Fools like me trying to be in bands
A little french girl so good to me
But i couldn't love her back so lonely
A backpacker travelling through
A lumberjack with the travelling blues
We had worn out shoes and worn out cuffs
And big ideas that were never big enough
He said the man wants you go wash his car
Hey you i'm talking to you
I said me, not me uh uh
No can do
No can can do no can
No can can do no can
Now some were grown up unlike me
And were dealing with reality
I was spittin' sulkin' smokin' shirkin'
While a lady from jamaica was singing and working
I had everyone but me to blame
And every day was just the same
Well nobody ever said it was a righteous world
But if they did they never said it at southsea girl
He said the man wants you go wash his car
Hey you i'm talking to you
I said me, not me uh uh

No can can do no can
No can can do no can
Well i've made my bed on peoples floors
Opened up and closed some doors
Dreamed that if my dreams came true
Then i wouldn't do what i didn't want to
Walking through the gates to the outside
To dream some dreams that never died
And i walked the streets of london town
Looking for a place to put my head down

Well this is my back yard - my back gate
I hate to start my parties late
Here's the party cart - ain't that great?
That ain't the best part baby - just wait
That's a genuine weathervane - it moves with the breeze
Portable hammock honey - who needs trees
It's casual entertaining - we aim to please
At my parties
Check out the shingles - it's brand new
Excuse me while i mingle - hi, how are you
Hey everybody - let me give you a toast
This one's for me - the host with the most
It's getting a trifle colder - step inside my home
That's a brass toilet tissue holder with its own telephone
That's a musical doorbell - it don't ring, i ain't kiddin'
It plays america the beautiful and tie a yellow ribbon
Boy, this punch is a trip - it's o.k. in my book
Here, take a sip - maybe a little heavy on the fruit
Ah, here comes the dip - you may kiss the cook
Let me show you honey - it's easy - look
You take a fork and spike 'em - say, did you try these?
So glad you like 'em - the secret's in the cheese
It's casual entertaining - we aim to please
At my parties
Now don't talk to me about the polar bear
Don't talk to me about the ozone layer
Ain't so much of anything these days, even the air
They're running out of rhinos - what do i care?
Let's hear it for the dolphin - let's hear it for the trees
Ain't runnin' out of nothin' in my deep freeze
It's casual entertaining - we aim to please
At my parties

59. _ If I Had You
Oo-ooo if i had you, yeah the things that i could do
Honey, if i had you
Now i could sing like an angel, fly just like a bird
Sing you the best love song you ever heard
I could be a poet like mohammed ali
Float like a butterfly, sting just like a, just like a bee
Mmm, ooo, if i had you, ahhh the things that i could do
If i had you
Now i'd go get your name tattooed on my chest
Well it'd just say 'my baby, my baby, she's the best'
Could be your superman, you could be my lois lane
I could be a tarzan, you could be my sweet jane - if you wanted to
Mmm if i had you, ah the things that i could do
If i had you
Yeah one more time
Ooo if i had, only had you, yeah the things that i could do
Oh boy
Only if i had you
So come on dance with me baby, don't let me go
Yeah dance with me baby, don't let me go
Baby don't let me, don't let me
Don't let me go, oh no

61. _ Wild West End
Stepping out to angellucci's for my coffee beans
Checking out the movies and the magazines
Waitress she watches me crossing from the barocco bar
I'm getting a pickup for my steel guitar
I saw you walking out shaftesbury avenue
Excuse me talking i wanna marry you
This is seventh heaven street to me
Don't be so proud
You're just another angel in the crowd
And i'm walking in he wild west end
Walking with your wild best friend
And my conductress on the number nineteen
She was a honey
Pink toenails and hands all dirty with money
Greasy hair easy smile
Made me feel nineteen for a while
And i went down to chinatown
In the backroom it's a man's world
All the money go down
Duck inside the doorway gotta duck to eat
Right now feels alright now
You and me we can't beat
And a gogo dancing girl yes i saw her
The deejay he say here's mandy for ya
I feel alright to see her
But she's paid to do that stuff
She's dancing high i move on by
The close ups can get rough
When you're walking in the wild west end

62. _ Industrial Disease
Warning lights are flashing down at quality control
Somebody threw a spanner and they threw him in the hole
There's rumours in the loading bay and anger in the town
Somebody blew the whistle and the walls came down
There's a meeting in the boardroom they're trying to trace the smell
There's leaking in the washroom there's a sneak in personnel
Somewhere in the corridors someone was heard to sneeze
'goodness me could it be industrial disease?'
The caretaker was crucified for sleeping at his post
They're refusing to be pacified it's him they blame the most
The watchdog's got rabies the foreman's got the fleas
And everyone's concerned about industrial disease
There's panic on the switchboard tongues are ties in knots
Some come out in sympathy some come out in spots
Some blame the management some the employees
And everybody knows it's the industrial disease
The work force is disgusted downs tools and walks
Innocence is injured experience just talks
Everyone seeks damages and everyone agrees
That these are 'classic symptoms of a monetary squeeze'
On itv and bbc they talk about the curse
Philosophy is useless theology is worse
History boils over there's an economics freeze
Sociologists invent words that mean 'industrial disease'
Doctor parkinson declared 'i'm not surprised to see you here
You've got smokers cough from smoking brewer's droop from drinking beer
I don't know how you came to get the bette davis knees
But worst of all young man you've got industrial disease'
He wrote me a prescription he said 'you are depressed
But i'm glad you came to see me to get this off your chest
Come back and see me later - next patient please
Send in another victim of industrial disease'
I go down to speaker's corner i'm thunderstruck
They got free speech, tourists, police in trucks
Two men say they're jesus one of them must be wrong
There's a protest singer singing a protest song - he says
'they wanna have a war so they can keep us on our knees
They wanna have a war so they can keep their factories
They wanna have a war to stop us buying japanese
They wanna have a war to stop industrial disease
They're pointing out the enemy to keep you deaf and blind
They wanna sap you energy incarcerate your mind
They give you rule brittania, gassy beer, page three
Two weeks in espana and sunday striptease'
Meanwhile the first jesus says 'i'd cure it soon
Abolish monday mornings and friday afternoons'
The other one's out on hunger strike he's dying by degrees
How come jesus gets industrial disease

63. _ Our Love
(vs.1)
You're my morning star
Shining brightly beside me
And if we keep this love
It would last through all eternity
Just the way we are
A love story
It's just the way it should be
(chorus #1)
Cause our love
Will stand tall as the trees
Our love
Will spread wide as the sea
Our love
Will shine bright in the night
Like the stars above
And we'll always be together
Our love
(vs.2)
My love is surely one thing
You can surely depend on
In times of darkness and fear
I go to you,
I know you'll make me strong
You're gonna make me happy
You're gonna make me smile
(chorus #2)
Our love
Will stand tall as the trees
Our love
Will be for the whole world to see
Our love
Will change people's wrongs to rights
And will never die
Cause we will always have each other
(chorus #1)
Break it down
Just a little
Because love is soft, love is sweet
Love is nice, love is gentle
Love is joy, love is pain
Love is laughing when you're in the rain
I got love on my mind
Love is always right on time
Love is you, love is me
Love is just a little baby
(our love) i got love on my mind
Love is always right on time time
Love is you, love is me
Love is gonna set you free
(our love)

65. _ It Never Rains
I hear the seven deadly sins
And the terrible twins come to call on you
The bigger they are babe
The harder they fall on you
And you you're always the same you persevere
On the same old pleasure ground
Oh and it never rains around here
It just comes pouring down
You had no more volunteers
So you got profiteers for to help you out
With friends like that babe
Good friends you had to do without
And now they've taken the chains and the gears
From off your merry-go-round
Oh and it never rains around here
It just comes pouring down
And your new romeo
Was just a gigolo when he let you down
See the faster they are babe
The faster they get out of town
Leaving make up stains and the tears
Of a clown
Yes and it never rains around here
It just comes pouring down
Oh you were just a roller coaster memory
I don't know why i was even passing through
I saw you making a date with destiny
When he came around here asking after you
In the shadow of the wheel of fortune
You're busy trying to clear your name
You say 'i may be guilty yeah that may be true
But i'd be lying if i said i was to blame
See we could have been major contenders
We never got no money no breaks'
You've got a list of all the major offenders
You got a list of all their major mistakes
And he's just standing in the shadows
Yes and you smile that come-on smile
Oh i can still hear you say as clear as the day
'i'd like to make it worth your while'
Ah but it's a sad reminder
When your organ grinder has to come to you for rent
And all you've got to give him
Is the use of your side-show tent
Yes and that's all that remains of the years
Spent doing the rounds
And it never rains around here
Well it just comes pouring down
Now you know what they say about beggars
You can't complain about the rules
You know what they say about beggars
You know who's the first to blame his tools
You never gave a damn about who you pick up
And leave laying bleeding on the ground
You screw people over on the way up
Because you thought that you were never coming down
And he takes you out in vaudeville valley
With his hand up smothering your screams
And he screws you down in tin pan alley
In the city of a billion dreams
