Friday night she got carried away Suzie lost everything she see Johnny found out she didn't understand She wanted it all, she wanted it all Saturday she was laughing it off Johnny's lonely as he can be Everyone seemed to agree Suzie don't need sympathy But Sunday morning she drove her car into a wall Lonely one, a wall is not a home Lonely one, a soul is not a throne Lies are highs, the truth is out on loan Johnny ran down to the hospital ward And he tried to apologise He said " You were too weak and you could not speak And I've been blind and you know I'm crying Sometimes I turn off, want the world to go away But if you ever come around I'll never let you down" And the doctor said "Who's gonna pay for the bed?" Lonely one, you always feel the same (Why do they want all my time?) Lonely one, it's such a childish game (Why isn't anything mine?) Lonely one, you're going to go insane Lonely one, the stars were meant for you Eyes are yours but you don't own the view Lonely one, do what you gotta do Time runs out for the innocent man When he can't get what he wants Johnny wears shades and he holds a blade On no, you mustn't do that, you mustn't do that Sometimes you turn off, want the world to go away Whatever keeps you alive All that you need to survive Any old way to keep the things you know from Bringing you down Saint Serene, get me on Flight 19 Saint Serene, get me on Flight 19 Saint Serene, get me on Flight 19 |

Thunder rolling down out of dried-up skies Every inch of earth crying out for water Television man spelling out the price Everywhere the sheep creeping the slaughter Cold weather coming, people feel the fire Living on Dead End Street with no desire Is it any wonder you've got no power When you pay a thief to keep it for you? Is it a surprise that your wine is sour When you let a liar choose the brew he pours you? Talk on the wire about force and choice It's uncomfortable to raise your voice Everybody whispering behind their hand Selling their despair to any stronger man Don't have to listen now We taught ourselves to trust our heads It's getting us nowhere If fifty-five million hearts can't feel it We'll never know where Polish up your silver and hide your gold Send the lookout man down to every corner Gather in the place where it's bought and sold Next to where you once used to be a learner Cold weather coming, people feel the fire Living on Dead End Street with no desire You gotta listen now |

Saw your face on TV You said its alright have no fear I'm here Panics ended Your rights defended From those who tried to tell you About the other side of life The strife that's going on Go to sleep now Count the sheep now With us the dream will never end It's easy to take what you are told They said we need law and order But no all your lives are bought and sold And just for some law and order Now the days grow colder The plans they've got for you are clear So clear You're not so sure You want that cure And those who tried to tell you About the shit that's going down Are found out on the moor But just don't ask how Curfew starts now Get off the streets and bolt the door We'll get away form here one day I'll take you across the border There's gotta be somewhere we can stay Where they don't need law and order |

Ferry-Manzanera
All your cares now they seem, oh, so far away All your fears I fear I once shared Now I know there's a future for all of us Not so long ago I was so scared. You seemed so sad, I could see through your twisted smile So unsure, always confused Pale blue eyes gazing down from your ivory tower Through the haze, all broken and bruised. Then out of the blue love came rushing in Out of the sky came the sun Out of left field came a lucky day Out of the blue, no more pain. I don't mind if it's only a passing craze Throwaway lines often rang true If I were you I would stay for a little while If you were me, would you walk out in style ? |

Want to know a secret, most people are that bad
Compassion leads to many lies and trying to apply it will just drive you mad It's only destiny calling with the usual show Get out while you've got time, make up your heart and find the kind of folk who really love. You want to know how to tell them apart You want to know how to feel in your heart Too bad for you that they don't do a five day course in caring you could play the part You're still searching for the ones who were near You're still itching for that great panacea But first you got to be alone and think what kept your friends contented all those years. Something about their eyes I thought you couid tell by now Remote control, off and jump now Remote control, pull out the wires Remote control, off and jump now Remote control, pull out the wires.

All the peasants in the squares
At the tables and their chairs Set to salvage certain numbers From the wonder of the Tundra And the muses in the gloom Counting needles in their rooms On the carpet in the corner In a kind of secret slumber While the information rain Slashed the dirty windowpane to the square Smokey broads and smoky windows in the square Come come charmer come on over for the day Disappearing cocoa forests flash and die Fortunes crumble all demolished in the bay Over forty pointed people In the perfect pointed steeple Looked to see the lucky number Yes the wonder of the Tundra Had come up to fame and fortune Singing his tune, my tune, your tune Wooing daughters of the gifted On the carpets and the courtrooms While the tickets were expensive The show was quite relentless in the square Smokey broads and smoky windows in the square Come come charmer come on over for the day Disappearing cocoa forests flash and die Fortunes crumble all demolished in the bay Dalai Llama lama puss puss Stella maris missa nobis Miss a dinner Miss Shapiro Shampoos pot-pot pinkies pampered Movement hampered like at Christmas Ha-ha isn't life a circus Round in Circles like the Archers Always stiff and always starchy Yes it's happening and it's fattening And it's all that we can get into the show Smokey broads and smoky windows in the square Come come charmer come on over for the day Disappearing cocoa forests flash and die Fortunes crumble all demolished in the bay |
