I love this island but this island's killing me
Sitting here in silence, man I don't get no peace
The waves upon my shore take me away piece by piece
Gonna leave everything I know gonna head out towards the sea
Jump off this island gonna head out towards the sea

I love this city man but this city's killing me
Sitting here in all this noise man I don't get no peace
The cars below my street take me away piece by piece
Gonna leave everything I know gonna head out towards the sea
Gonna leave this city man, gonna head out towards the sea

Get miles away, get miles away, get miles away
Get miles

I love this planet but this planet's killin' me
Sitting here in all this grass man I don't get no weed
The sweat comin' from my pores take me away piece by piece
Gonna leave everything I know gonna head to the galaxy
Gonna leave this planet man, gonna head to the galaxy

Get miles away, get miles away, get miles away, get miles away, get miles away,
get miles away, get miles away

Well, hey, how's tricks man?
Think I've seen you before
Blank blank to that

You looked a lot older
You been working out
What's wrong with that?

Well he came back and he
Came a-marching in
Shot shot to that

You found a good reason
Well, do it for the money
What's wrong with that?

Control your bad side
Into battle we go down
Hold the line
You'll survive
Dead wrong

So please stop talking and
Start puckering up
My ears are blank

It's a special occasion
So do it for the money
Can't go wrong with that

Explode or capsize
But find my going
If you're down
Toe the line
You'll survive

Be the light from my window
Be the time at my table
Be my hangover girl
Be my hangover girl
Be my hangover girl
Be my hangover girl

Share the wine at my table
Out of my mind see me stable
Find the time in my cradle
Be my hell of a girl
See my hell of a girl
Be my hell of a girl
See my hell of a girl
She waters down the rain when I get home

Be my hangover girl
See my hangover girl
Be my hangover girl
See my hangover girl
She waters down the rain when I get home

It's gonna rain when I get home
It's gonna rain when I get home
It's gonna rain when I get home

Well I'm goin' out west
Where the wind blows tall
'Cause Tony Franciosa
Used to date my ma
They got some money out there
They're giving it away
I'm gonna do what I want
Do what I want
And I'm gonna get paid

Little brown sausages
Lying in the sand
I ain't no extra baby
I'm a leading man
Well my parole officer
WIll be proud of me
With my Olds 88
And the devil on a leash
My Olds 88
And the devil on a leash

Well I know karate, Voodoo too
I'm gonna make myself available to you
I don't need no make up
I got real scars
I got hair on my chest
I look good without a shirt

Well I don't lose my composure
In a high speed chase
Well my friends think I'm ugly
I got a masculine face
I got some dragstrip courage
I can really drive a bed
I'm gonna change my name
To Hannibal or maybe
Just Rex
Change my name to Hannibal
Or maybe just Rex

I'm gonna drive all night
Take some speed
I'm gonna wait for the sun
To shine down on me
I cut a hole in my roof
In the shape of a heart

And I'm goin' out west
Where they'll appreciate me
Goin' out west

*Here comes the breeze, come on, blow me up
*Planting the seed, come on sow me up
*Feel in the feeling, making our way through the storm
*We've been deceiving, making our way through the storm

*All we need's a little more to
Send a little message to ya, gonna get out our heads
Send a little message to ya, gonna get out our heads

*Here comes the air, come on, blow me up
*Harness the fair, come on, grow me up
Staring at nothing 'cos I can't make out what it is
Searching for something I just don't know what it is

All we need's a little water
Send a little message to ya, gonna get out our heads
Send a little message to ya, gonna get out our heads

Come on in, come in on and lay me down
And relax cos the world will collapse with you
Turn your red light in to blue

Why do you keep running around like that
Sit back 'cos this is gonna take a while
Theres no shame in going out of style
Why do you keep running around like that

Send a little message to ya, gonna get out our heads
Send a little message to ya, gonna get out our heads
Send a little message to ya, gonna get out our heads

We came, we came, we came again
To stem the tide and point the blame
Came back from more
Came back to see what you had in store
Everyone join the line, everyone
Yeah

So you wanna spin the world around?
So you wanna spin the world around?
And anybody else, cut 'em down

So you wanna make catastrophe?
Won't you send it right over to me
I got some time
Everybody running high

The same, the same, the same again
To steal the time and haunt the graves
Just because it's there
Don't mean you see it anywhere
Maybe it's a trick of the light
Maybe, yeah

So you wanna spin the world around?
So you wanna spin the world around?
And anybody else, cut 'em down

So you wanna make catastrophe?
Don't you send it right over to me
I got some time
Everybody come alive

Yeah
So you wanna spin the world around?
So you wanna spin the world around?
And anybody else, cut 'em down

So you wanna make catastrophe?
Don't you send it right over to me
I got some time
Everybody running high

So you wanna spin the world around?
So you wanna spin the world around?
And anybody else, cut 'em down

So you say we haven't turned around?
So you say we haven't turned around?
Just everybody else is going wrong

Spit out the shout of a warning
Death is an honor with doubts
So you live in the end
And you mistrust the start
Because you don't think it counts

But you'll pay for yourself
You'll pay for yourself

You're just a heroin face

You see a heroin face in the mirror
And someone is clutching your breath
And you believe in the needle of night
You're only doing your best

But you'll pay for yourself
You'll pay for yourself

You believe in the needle of night
And someone is clutching your breath
So you mistrust the start
By always running away
But you'll never come back

You're just a heroin face

As soon as we arrived I expressed my concern,
I might have known I should, should have learned,
Faded photos, a fool at each turn,
It seemed to me this trip, that we have been burned.

Find me some time, to find a way out of here,
I'd be inclined to walk my way home,
Find me a plane, I'll fly my way out of here,
We were so blind to come here at all.

Along came insomnia,
As if this week wasn't dragging on enough,
One might reflect upon a me
It was such a relief to leave this ride on and on.

Find me some time, to find away out of here,
I'd be inclined to walk my way home,
Find me a plane, I'll fly my way out of here,
We were so blind to come here at all.

No way out
No way out
No way out for me, and the girl.

Find me some time, to find away out of here,
I'd be inclined to walk my way home,
Find me a plane, I'll fly my way out of here,
We were so blind to come here at all.

Find me some time, to find away out of here,
I'd be inclined to walk my way home,
Buy me a plane and I'll fly my way outta here,

Keep on kicking shit, keep running off the rails
Keep on picking the dirt from 'neath your fingernails
'Cause I'm not worried about your state of mind
'Cause you're not the revolutionary kind

Keep on in the jungle with your techno-cality
Keep on lapping up your chemical duty-free
'Cause I'm not worried about your state of mind
'Cause you're not the revolutionary kind

Keep on twisting turning, staring down the sun
Keep on dancing dancing, dance with everyone
You're not the revolutionary kind
You're not the revolutionary kind
You're not the revolutionary kind

So you don't care about the beautiful people
But you'll try one just the same
Yeah I know you can love it or leave it
You're just playing a game...
Again

Oh you don't care about the famously stupid
But you'll live it for a while
Oh I know you're only doing that irony thing
When you smile but don't smile...

You don't care about what anyone else is
Don't care what they do or they say
You live your own life in your own time
And in your own dead indifferent way

Yeah... in your own time...

No you don't care about the fabulous in things
But you'll be one just in case
Yeah I know you can take it or leave it
You're just having a taste...

Don't give a fuck about what anyone else is
Don't give a fuck what they do or they say
Yeah you are as you feel in your own time
And in your own dead indifferent way
And you will swear on any life but your own
That you're happy! happy how it all is...
At least it's the way that you think I should think
That you think about any of this

About any of this... yeah... and it's so much more than you ever need...

And you will swear on any lie but your own
That you're happy! happy how it all is...
At least it's the way that you think I should think
That you think about any of this...

You're so... happy yeah!
You're so... happy yeah!
You're so... happy yeah!
You're so... happy yeah!

Well how do you do?
Do you like the look of me and you together?

So take me out.
Spill a little drink on your lap

She said to me so deep inside
I'm thinkin' that I'm an extra special guy
Takin' it all with an extra pinch of salt
My friends seem to think that I'm the one now

You're only teasin' me now.
I'm not so laid back that I wouldn't try...

Well how do you do?
Would you like me to mm, mm, mm-mm, mmmmmm....

I'm not suggesting that I want you, but
I'll take you out,
Spill a little drink down my back and,

She said to me so deep inside
I'm thinkin' that I'm an extra special guy
Takin' it all with an extra pinch of salt
My friends seem to think that I'm the one now

You're only teasin' me now.
I'm not so laid back that I wouldn't try...

You're only teasin' me now.
I'm not so laid back that I wouldn't try...

Too much, too soon.
Are you made out of stone,
or are you made out of gold?

I'll be no clearer
when I'm wrinkled and old,
when I'm wrinkled and old.

She said to me so deep inside
I'm thinkin' that I'm an extra special guy
Takin' it all with an extra pinch of salt
My friends seem to think that I'm the one now

You're only teasin' me now.
I'm not so laid back that I wouldn't drive you home.

You're only teasin' me now.

*Love is better than a warm trombone, when blown, softly by a two tone, brother
*Down on luck by chance, caress her head off at the boogaloo trance

With his hands in his pocket he could not lie
With his hands in his pocket he began to cry
With his hands in his pocket he lowered his eye
*He said "Miss I guess I ought to apologise, I've been fallin, I'm falling down"

The river of your lovelorn souls is getting deeper than the deepest dish washing
bowl
*Now brother get the dirt off your hands, it's getting darker than a
sun-chaser's the sun tan

With his hands in his pockethe could not lie
With his hands in his pockethe began to cry
With his hands in his pockethe lowered his eyes
*He said "Miss, I guess I ought to apologise, I've been fallin, I'm falling
down"

With his hands in his pockethe began to cry
With his hands in his pockethe could not lie
With his hands in his pockethe lowered his eyes
*He said "Miss, I guess I ought to apologise, I've been fallin, I'm falling

There's a dog in the water
A dog in the water
Well we can do what we wanna
We'll never get older
Got to do what you wanna
You'll never get older

The flag's in the water
The flag's in the water
Yeah, we can do what we wanna
We'll never get older
Got to do what you wanna
You'll never get older

There's a fly in the water
A fly in the water
Yeah, we can do what we wanna
We'll never get older
Got to do what you wanna

[No lyrics]

*'around' to 'along'*
I am free to run, I walk slowly along
I'm everyone, walking slowly along
I walk slowly along

And I've been walking far too long
Drag my feet like everyone
Always wanted to run away but walk slowly along

I feel so tired
Wanna sit here for a while,
I can see it in your smile
Come sit here, let's hold for a while

I've been walking far too long
Drag my feet like everyone
Always wanted to run away but walk slowly along
I walk slowly along
I walk slowly along

I'm free to run
I'm free to run
I'm free to run
I'm free to run
I'm free to run

We'll return to the ocean
Ride the tide again
Taste the water, jump right in
And try to swim

So ping one down
Let it sink
Sink on down
Like heavy metal

We should take off the lotion
Let the sun shine in
Admire the holes with shaded eyes
And fry again

And ping one down
Let it sink
Sink on down
Like heavy metal

Ping one down
Let it sink
Don't ponce around
Like poor old men

Colour clean
This sterile scene
Move as we please
No use in complaining

Purify now
Saints alive
We're all deprived
Be careful what you're saying

We've been on a safari
Just collecting skin
Head to toe in camouflage
But high again

So ping one down
And let it sink
Sink on down
Like heavy metal

Colour clean
This sterile scene
Move as we please
No use in complaining

Purify now
Saints alive
We're all deprived
Be careful what you're saying

Careful what you're saying

I don't think I ever know if I ever really want it
Could be why I'm never sure if I ever really got it
And I guess it's maybe easier not to think too much about it...

A house a car a family and friends
Yeah all it means to justify the ends

But sometimes... I wonder... in the back of my mind
Sometimes... I wonder... if I'm wasting all my time
Sometimes... I wonder... if I'm putting off my real life...

What I could've done, where I could've been
When I should've gone, why I should've seen
Who I would've loved, how I would've dreamed
And if it's always always too late...

I don't think I ever know that I ever really need it
Could be why I'm never sure that I ever really feel it
And I think it's maybe easier to guess I really mean it...

A house! a car! a family and friends!
Yeah all it means to justify the ends

But sometimes... I wonder...

A girl! a smile! a holiday and sex!
Yeah all it takes to make sense of the rest

But sometimes... I wonder... in the back of my mind
Sometimes... I wonder... if I'm killing all my time
Sometimes... I wonder... if I'm giving up my real life...

What I could've done, where I could've been
When I should've gone, why I should've seen
Who I would've loved, how I would've dreamed
And if it's always, always too late...

And every day that I let slide
Is one day more I never try
To break the world
To make my fate
And with every day that I let go
It's one day less I ever know
If it's always

I wear the same shoes as anyone
I get the same blues as everyone
So try and call me, I'm immobile man, yes I am

Got a haircut, got a silver tooth, gonna get myself arrested
Got some friends in my BMW, tryin' to get themselves arrested

I suck the same lines as anyone
I do the same time as anyone
Don't try and call me, I'm immobile man, yes I am

Got a haircut, got a silver tooth, gonna get myself arrested
Got some friends in my BMW, tryin' to get themselves arrested

He only grows for guys he knows and me
He only grows for guys he knows and me

Well alright

Don't try and call me I'm immobile man
Don't try and call me I'm immobile man, yes I am

Got a haircut, got a silver tooth, gonna get myself arrested
Got some friends in my BMW, tryin' to get themselves arrested

These 3 sins have finally found me:
Lust, Ambition and Greed
Creepin' in the back door, they came without warning,
they burned whatever they could steal
they burned whatever they could steal

So please could you go back where you came from again?
We don't want to harm ya,
We don't want to harm ya,
We are not your armor,
We're your friends.

These 3 sins have fell from their horses,
and taken me and you for a ride.
Deliver us from evil, let the devil disown me.
The serpents and the snakes will decide.
The serpents and the snakes will decide.

So please could you go back where you came from again?
We don't want to harm ya,
We don't want to harm ya,
We are not your armor,

He's fine, don't make no sound, he's fine
She's fine but been around, she's fine

Said to her there's beauty
But all she sees is pain

He's fine, don't be unkind, he's fine
She's fine but wasting time

Said to her there's beauty
But all she sees is pain

He's fine, don't give no sign, he's fine
She's fine, she's fine, she is fine

Said to her there's beauty
But all she sees is pain

Said to her there's beauty in your eyes, in your eyes, in your eyes, in your

Once upon a time, not too long ago, we took a day out in Manchester
We all fall down, there's not enough hours in our day
Played a bit of football, fell in to the union, barged our way to the toilet
With the Kung Fu king, there's not enough hours in our day

I remember seeing someone dressed in a suit looking like a lunatic
And we all fall down, there's not enough hours in our trip
*Well, academy cartwheel's breakin' your hands
We got lovely posters for sale
And we all fall down, there's not enough hours in our day

We like lovin yeah, and the wine we share
We like lovin yeah, and the wine we share

Finally made our way back to the train, rolling in to Sheffield tonight
And we all fall down, there's not enough hours in our life
So try and guess my weight and wait at the station
We're whippin Picadilly tonight
And it all falls down, there not enough hours in our life

We like lovin yeah, and the wine we share
