1. _ The one
young man i think i know you
your face reminds me of a place
i went to as a young boy
it feels like yesterday
you're married now with children
and lines have started on your face
it must be all the worry
of joining the rat-race
isn't it strange how people change?
i never liked you anyway
your wifes of pale complexion
packed a case the other day
as yet she hasn't told you
she'll soon be far away
at school you were a captain
a faded memory
it must be all the worry
so now you just complain
isn't it strange how people change?
i never liked you anyway
isn't it strange how people change?
and now you wish for yesterday

2. _ Sleeping in
i won't wake up
you can't move the smile from my mouth
i'm not moving
i won't tell you what i've found
i'm only dreaming now
so don't make a sound
i'm only dreaming now
and it's all around, don't make a sound
it's not dying
i won't tell you how to live
i'm only dreaming now
so don't make a sound
i'm only dreaming now
and it's all around, don't make a sound
i'm not crying
what you get is what you give

3. _ Hollywood girl
a danish and coffee to take away
by cab i'm only minutes away
from breakfast at tiffany's
a place i feel so much at ease
the man upstairs is trying to sleep
he wants to take some photos of me
in my birthday suit
it's driving him through the roof
hollywood girl on the fire escape
don't you wait 'cos it's getting too late
she took a roman holiday
she needs a place to hideaway
escape the masquerade
miss golightly's rent is paid
moon river wider than a mile
sometimes live is such a trial
on the silver screen
nothing left to do but dream
hollywood girl on the fire escape
don't you wait 'cos it's getting too late
hollywood girl on the fire escape
don't you wait 'cos it's getting too late
hollywood girl on the fire escape
don't you wait 'cos it's getting too late

4. _ Stardust
(it's only rock 'n' roll....but i like it)
bobby boy's full of bravado
his girlfriend looks like bridgette bardot
he got drunk and crashed his car
he is such a superstar
he's a supercharged lover
sold his soul and sold his mother
for his rock 'n' roll and fame
again and again and again and again and again
bobby boy wears leather trousers
look so sexy they arouse us
travelled near and travelled far
he is such a superstar
he's a superhuman lover
love's himself and loves no other
just rock 'n' roll and fame
again and again and again and again and again
he's superficial fucker
has the girls one after the other
for rock 'n' roll and fame
again and again and again and again and again
and so on

5. _ Being brave
summer's almost here and the evening's getting warm
screw my head on a different way
hug my pillow and try not to count the days
winter's gone away and the morning's aren't so cold
rub the sleep out of my face
hug my pillow and try not to count the days
get your face out of my brain
i don't believe in being brave (ba ba ba bah)
evening's over now and the daylight's on it's way
empty bottles on the floor
give it a backbeat and try not to lose your head
no you won't have to pretend anymore
i don't believe in being brave (ba ba ba bah)
i only need my pice of space i need to breathe
i don't believe in being brave (ba ba ba bah)
now it's time to say goodnight, so sleep tight

6. _ I'll manage somehow
catch the bus by half past three
otherwise you'll find you're walking home
the forecast is for rain
two weeks in an awkwars squeeze
he just ignores the phone and turns
the t.v. up when he gets in
my favourite thing has gone away
and i know it won't be easy now-but i'll manage somehow
i stole his shoes and ran away
trying jolly hard to see if we can catch him round the bend
oh no!

7. _ Daydreamer
(don't drink and swim)
slowly shifting, gently drifting
in your arms, i'm quietly breathing
silent dreaming, thinking, yearning
hoping for a better journey
understanding what i'm planning
you're so blind you flounder drowning
moving closer, floating over
sinking into seas of color
feeling lighter, darker, brighter
consciousness begins to falter
holding you i start to wonder
pull you out or drag you under
breathe deaper...... daydreamer
slowly shifting, gently drifting
in your arms, i'm quietly breathing
silent dreaming, thinking, yearning
hoping for a better journey
understanding what i'm planning
you're so blind you flounder drowning
breathe deaper...... daydreamer
moving closer, floating over
sinking into seas of color
feeling lighter, darker, brighter
consciousness begins to falter
holding you i start to wonder
pull you out or drag you under
breathe deaper...... daydreamer

8. _ Around you again
of course i knew that you lived near
i guess that i will just have to suffer
i moved around a lot this year
trust me to end up near an ex-lover
oh, well it seems
that i have made
a big mistake
but i'm not going so y'better get used to it
i realise that i've been gone years
i didn't even write you a letter
i could have saved a lot of tears
by keeping in touch, that would have been better
of course i knew that you lived near
i guess that i will just have to suffer
i moved around a lot this year
trust me to end up near an ex-lover
i don't know and
i'm not sure if
you wil want me around you again
i don't know and
i'm not sure if
you wil want me around you again
of course i knew that you lived near
i guess that i will just have to suffer
i moved around a lot this year
trust me to end up near an ex-lover
of course i knew that you lived near
i guess that i will just have to suffer
i moved around a lot this year
trust me to end up near an ex-lover

9. _ Little miss pinpoint eyes
she's got a band new bicycle
sucking on a toxic icicle
hold on tight and grit your teeth
she's speeding her way through hampstead heath
let's not generalize
it's not our place to question why
little miss pinpoint eyes your bain has fried
goodbye!
she's lacking in grey particle's
her life is totally farticle
the lowest high she found was brown
she's crawling around alleys in camden town
let's not generalize
it's not our place to question why
little miss pinpoint eyes your bain has fried
goodbye!
she melts shit on metal spoons
alleviates that feeling of doom and gloom (yeah, yeah)
float away on a hot air balloon
she's chasing around to disco tunes
let's not generalize
it's not our place to question why
little miss pinpoint eyes your bain has fried
goodbye!

10. _ 125 west third street
tommy took a walk one day
found himself on west third and broadway
took a cab to midtown, times square
met a girl he knows called tessa there
well she had problems with his personal hygiene
and the coffee he drinks is full of caffeine
she said tommy take a bath for me
you stink, i'll scrub you till you're squeakly clean
tess, he said, i don't understand
how they grow tomatoes in a can
tess, he said, now wait a while
my teeth don't glitter when i smile

11. _ Ghosttrack
they read my mind
i waited so patiently
far than too long
and life's been
dancing in light
and nobody knows
who i am
or where i have been
blink- and it's gone
i'm losing my grip on my breath
when i'm trying to sneak
into their arms
am i a boy?
or am i just one sempred need?
foo flighters flow
i read a book a bout
places that i'v never seen
wanting too much
you might be surpised
if that's what you got
You can't blow
blink- and it's gone
i'm losing my grip on my breath
when i'm trying to sneak
into their arms
am i a boy?
or am i just one sempred need?
blink- and it's gone
i'm losing my grip on my breath
when i'm trying to sneak
into their arms
am i a boy?
or am i just one sempred need?
Well, this was my translation. But a really nice guy named Gary send me his. I think his is better than mine, have any other fans (if they exist) even better ideas???
they read my mind
i waited so patiently
for them to come at light speed
dancing in light
and nobody knows who i am
or where i have been
blink-and it's gone
i'm losing my grip on my breath
when i'm trying to sleep.
into their arms,
am i a boy
or am i just bones and red meat
foo fighters flow
i read a book about places that
i've never seen
wanting too much
you might be surprised
if that want you get, you can't leave
blink-and it's gone
