Who can it be knocking at my door?
Go 'way, don't come 'round here no more. Can't you see that it's late at night? I'm very tired, and I'm not feeling right. All I wish is to be alone; Stay away, don't you invade my home. Best off if you hang outside, Don't come in - I'll only run and hide. Who can it be now? Who can it be now? Who can it be now? Who can it be now? Who can it be knocking at my door? Make no sound, tip-toe across the floor. If he hears, he'll knock all day, I'll be trapped, and here I'll have to stay. I've done no harm, I keep to myself; There's nothing wrong with my state of mental health. I like it here with my childhood friend; Here they come, those feelings again! Who can it be now? Who can it be now? Who can it be now? Who can it be now? Is it the man come to take me away? Why do they follow me? It's not the future that I can see, It's just my fantasy Oh...Who can it be now? Oh...Who can it...Who can it... Yeah yeah yeah |

Traveling in a fried-out combie
On a hippie trail, head full of zombie I met a strange lady, she made me nervous She took me in and gave me breakfast And she said, "Do you come from a land down under? Where women glow and men plunder? Can't you hear, can't you hear the thunder? You better run, you better take cover." Buying bread from a man in Brussels He was six foot four and full of muscles I said, "Do you speak-a my language?" He just smiled and gave me a vegemite sandwich And he said, "I come from a land down under Where beer does flow and men chunder Can't you hear, can't you hear the thunder? You better run, you better take cover." Lying in a den in Bombay With a slack jaw, and not much to say I said to the man, "Are you trying to tempt me Because I come from the land of plenty?" And he said, "Oh! Do you come from a land down under? (oh yeah yeah) Where women glow and men plunder? Can't you hear, can't you hear the thunder? You better run, you better take cover." |

I can't get to sleep
I think about the implications Of diving in too deep And possibly the complications Especially at night I worry over situations I know will be alright Perahaps its just my imagination Day after day it reappears Night after night my heartbeat, shows the fear Ghosts appear and fade away Alone between the sheets Only brings exasperation It's time to walk the streets Smell the desperation At least there's pretty lights And though there's little variation It nullifies the night From overkill Day after day it reappears Night after night my heartbeat, shows the fear Ghosts appear and fade away I can't get to sleep I think about the implications Of diving in too deep And possibly the complications Especially at night I worry over situations I know will be alright It's just overkill Day after day it reappears Night after night my heartbeat, shows the fear Ghosts appear and fade away |

Jump down the shelters to get away The boys are cockin' up their guns Tell us general, is it party time? If it is can we all come Don't think that we don't know Don't think that we're not trying Don't think we move too slow It's no use after crying Saying It's a mistake, it's a mistake It's a mistake, it's a mistake After the laughter as died away And all the boys have had their fun No surface noise now, not much to say They've got the bad guys on the run Don't try to say you're sorry Don't say he drew his gun They've gone and grabbed old Ronnie He's not the only one saying It's a mistake, it's a mistake It's a mistake, it's a mistake Tell us commander, what do you think? 'Cos we know that you love all that power Is it on then, are we on the brink? We wish you'd all throw in the towel We'll not fade out too soon Not in this finest hour Whistle your favourite tune We'll send a card and flower Saying It's a mistake, it's a mistake It's a mistake, it's a mistake |

Pull out the stop plugs, drain all the waste Who needs it anyway Fill all the big holes, leave no trace No sign of yesterday I wash all the dishes and I clean up my place No sign of yesterday I stare at the photographs of your dark face No sign of yesterday Out in the yard was such a lovely place It's where we used to play Inside, outside you can feel and taste No sign of yesterday And I can't hear you calling I can't hear you calling I can't hear you anymore Metal ships are falling This old car keeps stalling Always seems to be the way Pick up the pieces and go dig out the dead Then you can go to bed Night is the stealer and time is the test No sign of yesterday Pull out the stop plugs, drain all the waste Who needs it anyway Fill all the big holes, leave no trace No sign of yesterday And I can't hear you calling I can't hear you calling I can't hear you anymore Metal ships are falling This old car keeps stalling Always seems to be the way |

Feel so washed up today
Haven't really got much to say Blood on the pillow on my bed Explains the pain that's in my head Sometimes I don't know just where to go Sometimes I can't tell, but it's just as well 'Cos I'm walking on a high wire High wire Oh won't someone let me in I'm stinking and I'm full of gin No need to close the door so fast I'm very fragile not built to last Sometimes I don't know just where to go Sometimes I can't tell, but it's just as well 'Cos I'm walking on a high wire High wire Have to pull it together We're in for some stormy weather Have to pull it together We're in for some nasty weather High wire, high wire high wire, high wire high wire, high wire It really isn't too much fun Sitting round waiting for the night to come It's almost time to put on my suit of cool I may be an idiot but indeed I am no fool Sometimes I don't know just where to go Sometimes I can't tell, but it's just as well 'Cos I'm walking on a high wire |

Like a man who has two hearts
Both of them worlds apart Both of them play their part you know Like a man who has two wives His life the becomes alibis Nobody asks him why you know Can there be peace Between the heart and the brain? No release always the same I won't come here again Like a man who has one hand Still he does what he can Shows he is twice the man you are Are we just beasts With our burdens of pain No release always the same Cut off my legs Torture and maim I'm back here again Like a man who has two hearts One day they fell apart Both of them played their part you know Can there be peace Between the heart and the brain No release to try is in vain Stories repeat always the same I won't come here again. |

Hello to you, my sweet young friends
Have you got money perhaps you could lend? I wash my leather face in the afternoon sun My shirt's turn my time's near done Touching the untouchables but they don't know Respect the disrespectables, but in the end you know You turn away, what can I say? Spend my nights in the telephone booth I make sure I leave the phone off the hook There are no Jones' and I pay no rent I have to stand straight because my back's so bent Tell my secretary I ain't takin' any calls, And if you want to find me, just ask the boys... Down at the wall...That's where I'll be... Oh... Oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh Park bench and cigarettes Can you help me get off this fence? Can't you see, I'm just an old man Tryin' hard, do what I can Touching the untouchables but they don't know Repect the disrespectables, but in the end you know You turn away, what can I say? You'll never, never know You'll never know |

Sometimes the sun shines And I close the blinds 'Cos I can't stand to see the light Of day I have no use for pain But I don't mind the rain 'Cos I can stare outside and hear the sound Today I looked right down to the ground With nothing in between to break my fall I'm blue for you, blue for you I don't know what to do CHORUS Gotta form a plan of attack Can't stop to look back I know You are so far from here Gotta be strong in my mind Not encroach on your time I know that That would be wrong for sure I must get out and about Of that I have no doubt There surely must be new places to go Sights I've never seen All with pastures green 'Cos the old ones are making me blue for you 'Cos I'm blue for you, blue for you I don't know what to do And I'm blue for you, blue for you I don't know what to do Gotta form a plan of attack Climb back on the track I know Bid my devil friend good-bye Hope I'm still in the race But I don't know whaat to chase oh no And you're still so far from here The sun it still shines in And I shall close the blinds 'Cos I know I won't see you anymore, see you anymore And I'm blue for you, blue for you I don't know what to do 'Cos I'm blue for you, blue for you I don't know what to do I don't know I could take a big jump |

Moving up and down and from side to side
With so many things to do I want to go again I want another ride This time should see it through We never realised as the years rolled by No we never really had a clue But we knew one day we'd come alive And in the end there's me and you My babe, she gives me everything She gives me everything I need When the winter comes and the cold sets in As this city's prone to do They forecast heavy seas and gale force winds that's really nothing new When I'm falling down Deeper than the underground My thoughts race back to you Again and again My babe, she gives me everything she gives me everything I need And if you think us fools And you criticize Then my friend the joke's on you My babe, she gives me everything She gives me everything I need |

Wind is in the east
Stare at us eyes in wonder Like beggars at a feast We can't even, count the number What you gonna do? Send them table scraps we're leaving One who care are few Most spend there time, with useless meaning Dear father, Do you think that it will be alright? Tell me mother, Will we make it through? We make it through the hungry night. Somewhere in the west Gold teeth, but sometime is gleaming We know we are the best Even know, the beasts lie screaming We've got power to spare A new clear day Is dawning they say But tell us, don't you dare The piper has a price that we pay Dear preacher, Do you think that we'll see the light? Tell me teacher, Well we make it through? We make it through the darkest night. Two faces in the south The first one has a look of With fine words in his mouth His heart is black, As ghetto chimneys What you gonna do? To hide the shame, Contain their anger. What you gonna say? You walk the line, of constant danger Dear brother, You think we'll have to stand and fight? Tell me sister, Will we make it through? We make it through the longest night. Dear father, Do you think it's gonna be alright? Tell me teacher, Do you think that we'll see the light? Tell me brother, You think we'll have to stand and fight? Tell me sister, Will we make it through? Make it through the longest night. |
