unknown

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

If you're wondering why i've not been speaking my mind sir
It took so long since i could call this my home
My shapes of confusion fit holes of frustration
And there's nothing worse then being home on your own

You can colour my life
Until it fits with your own
You can colour my life
Until it fits with your own

I've been wondering why you've not been speaking your mind sir
I've coloured my life and i'll make no bones
My shapes of confusion fit holes of frustration
You can colour my life until it fits with your own

You can colour my life
Until it fits with your own
You can colour my life
Until it fits with your own
You can colour my life
Until it fits with your own
You can colour my life
You can colour my life

If you're wondering why i've not been speaking my mind sir
It took so long since i could call this my home
My shapes of confusion fit holes of frustration
You can colour my life until it fits with your own

You can colour my life
Until it fits with your own
You can colour my life
Until it fits with your own
You can colour my life
Until it fits with your own
You can colour my life
You can colour my life

Colour my life
Colour my life
Colour my life

Won't you take me
Won't you take me to the edge of night and make me
Won't you make me walk into the light
And there'll be no eyes
No eyes that see such beauty would lose their sight
And there'll be no lies
No lies that you could tell me to make things right

Cos I gave all my money to people and things
And the price I'm still playing for the shit that it brings
Doesn't fill me with hope for the songs that you sing
Tonight, this is your life
Angel child

When you find out
When you find out who you are you know you'll be free
To see your own ability
But there'll be no eyes
No eyes that see such beauty would lose their sight
And there'll be no lies
No lies that you could tell me to make things right

Cos I gave all my money to people and things
And the price I'm still playing for the shit that it brings
Doesn't fill me with hope for the songs that you sing
Tonight, this is your life
Angel child
Tonight, this is your life, this is your life
Angel child of mine

Tonight, this is your life, this is your life
Angel child
Tonight, this is your life, this is your life
Angel child of mine
Tonight, this is your life, this is your life
Angel child
Tonight, this is your life, this is your life
Angel child

Here I stand head in hand
Turn my face to the wall
If she's gone I can't go on
Feelin' two-foot small

Everywhere people stare
Each and every day
I can see them laugh at me
And I hear them say

Hey you've got to hide your love away
Hey you've got to hide your love away

How could I even try
I can never win
Hearing them, seeing them
In the state I'm in

How could she say to me
Love will find a way
Gather round all you clowns
Let me hear you say

Hey you've got to hide your love away
Hey you've got to hide your love away

it's nine 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?

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 my life
Sit around all day on my own

I'm halfway up to the bottom
Of another bottle
Of my next best favourite friend
Am i cracking up
Or just getting older?

You're not cracking up
You're just getting older
We're not cracking up
We're just getting older

Everywhere i hear the sound of marching feet, boy
Cause summer's here and the time is right for fighting in the street, boy
But what can a poor boy do
'cept to sing for a rock 'n' roll band
Cause in sleepy london town
There's just no place for a street fighting man
No!

Hey! think the time is right for a palace revolution
But where i live the game to play is compromise solution
Well, what can a poor boy do
'cept to sing for a rock 'n' roll band
Cause in sleepy london town
There's just no place for a street fighting man
No!
No!
No!

Guitar!

Hey! said my name is called disturbance
I'll shout and scream, i'll kill the king, i'll rail at all his servants
Well, what can a poor boy do
'cept to sing in a rock 'n' roll band
Cause in sleepy london town
There's just no place for a street fighting man
No!
No!
No!

I haven't seen your face round
Since I was a kid
You're bringing back those memories
Of the thing that we did
You're hangin round
And climbing trees
Pretending to fly
D'Yer wanna be a spaceman
And live in the sky

You got how many bills to pay
And how many kids
And you forgot about
The things that we did
The town where we're living
Has made you a man
And all of your dreams
Are washed in the sand

Well it's alright
It's alright
Who are you and me to say
What's wrong and what's right
Do you still feel like me
We sit down here
And we shall see
We can talk
And find common ground
And we can just forget
About feeling down
We can just forget
About life in this town.

It's funny how your dreams
Change as you're growing old
You don't wanna be no spaceman
You just want gold
Dream stealers
Are lying in wait
But if you wanna be a spaceman
It's still not too late

Well it's alright
It's alright
Who are you and me to say
What's wrong and what's right
Do you still feel like me
We sit down here

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

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

I don't mind not being immortal
Because 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

Got a good reason
For taking the easy way out
Got a good reason
For taking the easy way out now

Take me when i'm young and true
Was it me or was it you?
Take me when i'm not so strong
Why has it taken you so long?
Take me when you feel i've gone
I always knew i could be someone
Take me if you think you're right
Do it now before it's light

Take me if you think i'm sweet
Though my life feels incomplete
Take me when i wish to live
For i still have this to give

Take me when i'm young and true
Was it me or was it you
Take me when i start to cry
Take me, take me, don't ask why

I'm free to be whatever i
Whatever i choose
And i'll sing the blues if i want

I'm free to say whatever i
Whatever i like
If it's wrong or right it's alright

Always seems to me
You only see what people want you to see
How long's it gonna be
Before we get on the bus
And cause no fuss
Get a grip on yourself
It dont cost much

Free to be whatever you
Whatever you say
If it comes my way it's alright

You're free to be wherever you
Wherever you please
You can shoot the breeze if you want

Help, i need somebody,
Help, not just anybody,
Help, you know i need someone, help.

When i was younger, so much younger than today,
I never needed anybody's help in any way.
But now these days are gone, i'm not so self assured,
Now i find i've changed my mind and opened up the doors.

Help me if you can, i'm feeling down
And i do appreciate you being round.
Help me, get my feet back on the ground,
Won't you please, please help me.

And now my life has changed in oh so many ways,
My independence seems to vanish in the haze.
But every now and then i feel so insecure,
I know that i just need you like i've never done before.

Help me if you can, i'm feeling down
And i do appreciate you being round.
Help me, get my feet back on the ground,
Won't you please, please help me.

I'm a chipper son of a bitch

I'm a chipper son of a bitch

I'm a chipper son of a bitch
And i never get an itch
When i'm a chipper son of a bitch
I'm a chipper son of a bitch

And how does it feel like to wake up in ther sun?
And how does it feel like to shine on everyone?
How does it feel like to let forever be?
And how does it feel like to spend a little lifetime sitting in the gutter?
Scream my symphony
(screen my sin for me)?
How does it feel like to sail in on the breeze?
And how does it feel like to spend a little lifetime sitting in the gutter?
Scream my symphony
(screen my sin for me)?

How does it feel like to make it happening?
And how does it feel like to be with everything?
And how does it feel like to let forever be?
And how does it feel like to spend a little lifetime sitting in the gutter?
Scream my symphony
(screen my sin for me)?

How does it feel like to be in christamine?
And how does it feel like to spend a little lifetime sitting in the gutter?
Scream my symphony
(screen my sin for me)?

Just when it falls apart
And when it's time to start
Will you sit down here for another day
And when it's time to be
All the things that we
Are wishing away for another day

Cos in my soul we know where we're goin
We're goin where the grass is green, the air is clean and the good times are growin'
So take me away
Just for today
Cos I'm sat here on my own
I'd like to be
Under the sea
Where they'd probaly need a phone

And just when it falls apart
And just when it's time to start
Will you sit down here for another day

Cos in my soul we know where we're goin
We're goin where the grass is green, the air is clean and the good times are growin'
So take me away
Just for today
Cos I'm sat here on my own
I'd like to be
Under the sea
Where they'd probaly need a phone
I could be you
If I wanted to
But I've never got the time
You could be me
And pretty soon you will be
But you're gonna need a line

Need a line
Need a line
Need a line

if you gave me a fresh carnation
I would only crush its tender petals
With me you'll have no escape
And at the same time there'll be nowhere to settle
I trample down all life in my wake
I eat it up and take the cake
I just avert my eyes to the pain
Of someone's loss helping my gain

If you gave me a dream for my pocket
You'd be plugging in the wrong socket
With me there's no room for the future
With me there's no room with a view at all

I am out of season all year around
Hear machinery roar to my empty sound
Touch my heart and feel winter
Hold my hand and be doomed forever

If you gave me a fresh carnation
I would only crush its tender petals
With me you'll have no escape
And at the same time there'll be nowhere to settle
And if you're wondering by now who i am
Look no further than the mirror
Cause i am the greed and fear
And every ounce of hate in you

A feeling sleeping deep inside
You hide it so I'll never find
Today I think I'll waste my time
You never notice, you are blind

The dream I have can never be
To photograph what the eye can't see
I fight to live another day
I live to find out, come what may

Faith in the lord is something I can never have
Faith in my sister is gonna set me free
Faith in the lord is something I will never have
Cause the lord I know don't got not faith in me

Your my lover, Your my lover
Your my lover, Your my lover

She gives me light when the sun goes down
She gives me strength when I don't drown
She gives me hope and destiny
She gives me air that I can breathe

Faith in the lord is something I can never have
Faith in my sister is gonna set me free
Faith in the lord is something I will never have
Cause the lord I know don't got not faith in me

Your my lover, I'm your brother
Your my lover, I'm your brother

Faith in the lord is something I can never have
Faith in my sister is gonna set me free
Faith in the lord is something I will never have
Cause the lord I know don't got not faith in me

Your my lover, I'm your brother
Your my lover, I'm your brother
Your my lover, I'm your brother
Your my lover, I'm your brother

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

I hear my heart beatin faster
I feel it in my bones
I want it now 'cos I have ta
But why, no-one knows
I'm like the angel on the a train
I'm like the angel of the A train
My eyes are diamond white
From the cradle till your insane
For life you have to fight
But no-one knows why there's a spirit in the sky, there's escape for no-one
He will understand, while I take him by the hand, that life's time tunnel is long
Well it will be alright
If you stay tonight
It's where we both belong
It's gonna be full on
It's gonna be full on
It's gonna be full on
It's gonna be full on
It's gonna be full on

I hear my heart beatin faster
I feel it in my bones
I want it now 'cos I have ta
But why, no-one knows

It's gonna be full on
It's gonna be full on
It's gonna be full on
It's gonna be full on
It's gonna be full on
It's gonna be full on

Say goodbye cold world
Say i'm leaving you today
Goodbye
Goodbye
Goodbye

I said goodbye all you people
There's nothing you can say
Make me change my mind
Goodbye

Your the devil in me, i brought in from the cold
You said your body was young but your mind was very old
Your comin' on strong and i like the way
The visions we had are fading away
You're part of the life i never had
I'll tell you now it's just too bad
I'll tell you now it's just too bad
I'll tell you now it's just too bad
I'll tell you now it's just too bad

well you can say what you want
But you won't get a thing from me
And if you don't understand
That's it's not in your hands you need

Let there be love
Let there be love
Let there be love
Let there be love

But you can say what you feel
And it might never steal from me
And then you must understand
That it's all in your hands what you need

Let there be love
Let there be love
Let there be love
Let there be love

And i never knew
But all the thing's that you've done
Are coming right back to you
But everybody know's that it's no crime

But does it make you feel ashamed
You never said what you done
And there's no need to blame
But everybody knows, yeah everybody knows
Everybody knows that it's no crime, it's no crime

So you can say what you want
But you'll not get a thought from me
But if you say what you mean
Then you might get a thing from me

Let there be love
Let there be love
Let there be love
Let there be love

If i ever knew
That all the thing's i've thought
Are coming right back to you
But everybody thinks that it's a crime

It never makes you feel ashamed
You sit around and you sold
And you're passing the blame
But everybody knows
Yeah everybody knows
Everybody knows that it's a crime
It's a crime (3x)

To be someone must be a wonderful thing
A famous footballer a rock singer
Or a big film star, yes i think that i would like
I would like that
To be rich and have a lot of fans
And lots of girls to prove that i'm a man
To be number one - and loved by everyone

Getting drugged up with my trendy friends
They really dig me, man, and i dig them
And the money that i spend, it is like my fame, and it's quickly gone

No more swimming in my guitar shaped pool
No more reporters at my beck and call
No more cocaine, now it's only ground chalk
And i can't afford a taxi so i have to walk

Didn't i have a nice time
Wasn't it sucha nice time
Didn't i have a nice time

I realize i should have stuck to my guns
You stood me out just like a bastard son
And i lost myself, but i know that it was wrong
And it cost me a lot

No more drinking cause now the club shuts down
And i'm out here on my arse with the rest of you clowns
I get really scared without my bodyguard
And i'm sitting all alone in my expensive yard

Didn't i have a nice time
Wasn't it such a nice time
Didn't i have a nice time
Wasn't it such a nice time
I remember it was a nice time
To be someone must be a wonderful thing

it must have been love


Lay a whisper on my pillow
Leave the winter on the ground
I wake up lonely
There's air of silence
In the bedroom and all around
Touch me now
I close my eyes and dream away

It must have been love but it's over now
It must have been good but i lost it somehow
It must have been love but it's over now
From the moment we touched 'til the time had run out

Make-believing we're together
That i'm sheltered by your heart
But in and outside
I've turned to water like a teardrop in your palm
And it's a hard winter's day
I dream away

It must have been love but it's over now
It was all that i wanted
Now i'm living without
It must have been love but it's over now
It's where the water flows
It's where the wind blows

they took my faith
They put it in a headlock and
They sealed my fate
Somewhere inside the world
In which they live
Because i failed
They constantly ignore me and
They told me i lost my mind but
I believe that i rule the world

I'm singing out my revolution song
Like nothing else matters
And you can pitch your gold against my soul
But i bet you get shattered
And there's a million houses in my heart
It won't be long
It won't be long
Till i solve my mystery

It would for me
What do i believe in and
A masterkey
Is somewhere inside of the world in which i live
And what for they
They will speak for no-one
And i may have lost my mind
But i believe that i rule my world

I'm singing out my revolution song
Like nothing else matters
You can pitch your gold against my soul
But i bet you get shattered
And there's a million houses in my heart
It won't be long
It won't be long
Till i solve my mystery

And i'm singing out my revolution song
Like nothing else matters
And you can pitch your gold against my soul
But you gotta get shattered
And there's a million houses in my heart
And it won't be long
It won't be long
Till i solve my mystery
Till i solve my mystery

It's better people love one another
'Cause livin' your life can be tough
It's better people speak to each other
Your shame is not enough

If everybody came alive
And stayed alive
And lived their lives instead, yeah
So come outside
And feel the light
It's cold inside
But it's lonely in your bed
In your bed

And though we might be
But what you heard before
Was only sleepin' in your brain
But if you came with me
The days'd never end
Would never be the same
They'd never be the same
They'd never be the same
Never be the same
It's better people love one another
'Cause livin' your life can be tough
It's better people speak to each other
Your shame is not enough

If everybody came alive
And stayed alive
And lived their lives instead, yeah
So come outside
And feel the light
It's cold inside
But it's lonely in your bed
In your bed

And though we might be
But what you heard before
Is sleeping in your brain
But if you came with me
The days'd never end
Would never be the same
They'd never be the same
They'd just go by a different name
They'd never be the same
