If I said I'd lost my way
Would you sympathize Could you sympathize? I'm jumbled up Maybe I'm losing my touch I'm jumbled up Maybe I'm losing my touch But you know I didn't have it anyway Won't you come on down to my Won't you come on down to my rescue Things are wrong Things are going wrong Can you tell that in a song I don't know what I want anymore First I want a kiss and then I want it all Won't you come on down to my Won't you come on down to my rescue Rescue, rescue, rescue Things are wrong Things are going wrong Can you tell that in a song Losing sense of those harder things Is this the blues I'm singing? Is this the blues I'm singing? Is this the blues I'm singing? Is this the blues I'm singing? Won't you come on down to my Won't you come on down to my rescue Is this the blues I'm singing Won't you come on down to my rescue Won't you come on down to my Won't you come on down to my Won't you come on down to my Won't you come on down to my (Is this the blues I'm singing?) Won't you come on down to my (Rescue) Won't you come on down to my (Is this the blues I'm singing?) (Rescue) Won't you come on down to my (Is this the blues I'm singing?) (Rescue) Won't you come on down to my (Is this the blues I'm singing?) (Rescue) Won't you come on down to my (Is this the, I'm singing) Won't you come on down to my (Is this the, I'm singing) |

We sat all night around a table
Trying to string three words together Time has come and By the way, mine's a double By the way, mine's a double Nothing for some We don't understand Everything we hear We just pick out the simple stuff Simple stuff We don't need all those complications We're tough stuff And we got no intentions Repeat... |

The sky seems full
When you're in the cradle The rain will fall And wash your dreams Stars are stars And they shine so hard Now you spit out the sky Because it's empty and hollow All your dreams Are hanging out to dry Stars are stars And they shine so cold I saw you climb Shadows on the trees We lost some time After things that never matter I caught that falling star It cut my hands to pieces Where did I put that box? It had my name in it I saw you climb Shadows on the trees We lost some time After things that never matter The cogs have clicked and The clocks will have their say In the making of a day You came here late Go home early Who'll remember? Now you've gone away Gone away Gone away |

Where the hell have you been
We've been waiting with our best suits on Hair slicked back and all that jazz Rolling down the Union Jack See you at the barricades babe See you when the lights go low, Joe Hear you when the wheels turn round Someday when the sky turns black It appears because it's what I feel I know I don't understand If you ask you know I don't mind kneeling But when my knees hurt I like to stand Instinct is the common lawyer A million years won't erase Strike the chord I'm searching for Call it a committed race No matter how I shake my fist I know I can't resist it No matter how you shake your fist You know you can't resist it See you at the barricades babe See you when the lights go low, Joe Hear you when the wheels turn round Someday when the sky turns black |

I read it in a magazine
I don't wanna see it again I threw away the magazine And looked for someone to explain I don't wanna look back I can't look 'round I don't wanna see it coming 'round Listen to the ups and downs Listen to the sound they make Don't be scared when it gets loud When your skin begins to shake 'Cos you don't wanna look back You gotta look tall Gotta see those creeps crawl I know you know I know you know Well I can see you've got the blues In your alligator shoes Me I'm all smiles I've got my crocodiles I don't wanna look back I can't turn 'round I don't wanna see it coming down Met someone just the other day He said wait until tomorrow I said hey, whatcha doing today? He said I'm gonna do it tomorrow |

Realistically
It's hard to dig it all too happily But I can see It's not always that real to me A funny thing Is always a funny thing Though sadly things Just get in the way Open to suggestion Falling over questions Hopefully But that's as well as maybe A shaking hand Won't transmit all fidelity Your stalwart smile Would shame a politician Typically I'll apologise next time Bonds will break and fade Go snapping all in two The lies that bind the tie Come sailing out of you Realistically, Hard to dig it all too happily But I can see, Not always that real to me A funny thing Is always a funny thing And those sadly things Is always a sadly thing Bonds will break and fade A snapping all in two The lies that bind the tie Come sailing out of you A show of strength Is all you want You can never set it down... Guts and passion Those things you can't Even set down All those things you think might count You can't ever set them down Don't ever set them down Never set them down Hey, I came in right on cue One is me and one is you... Hey, I came in right on cue One is me and one is you... |

Where are you now?
We're over here We've got those empty pockets And we can't afford the beer We're smoking holes And we've got only dreams And we're so damn drunk We can't see to steer The applecart upset my head's little brain This little moon in the sky upset my head's little brain I saw, yippee, I did, I swear Walking through the hallway Crawling on the stairs Abebe baby.... Bekila I'm giving up on whiskey Taking up with tequila I'm on my own in my blind alley I turn myself around so it's swallowing me Groovy groovy people We're all Groovy groovy people... F-F-Faustus You've got nothing to fear It may be hell down there 'Cos it's Heaven up here I'd have given forever For a few good years But too much of a muchness Is too much you hear? The hammer on my chest was an abominable pain The anvil on my belly was an abdominal strain You got the bottle Gonna take the bottle Gonna take a sip |

Flying
And I know I'm not coming down You're trying But you know you must soon go down All my colors turn to clouds All my colors turn to clouds Zimbo What d'you say When your heart's in pieces? How d'you play Those cards in sequence? That box you gave me burned nicely That box you gave me burned nicely Zimbo Flying down Flying down All my colors turn to clouds Hey, I've flown away Hey, I'm blown away |

Who's on the seventh floor
Brewing alternatives What's in the bottom drawer Waiting for things to give Spare us the cutter Spare us the cutter Couldn't cut the mustard Conquering myself Until I see another hurdle approaching Say we can, say we will Not just another drop in the ocean Come to the free for all With seven tapered knives Some of them six feet tall We will escape our lives Spare us the cutter Spare us the cutter Couldn't cut the mustard Conquering myself Until I see another hurdle approaching Say we can, say we will Not just another drop in the ocean Am I the happy loss Will I still recoil When the skin is lost Am I the worthy cross Will I still be soiled When the dirt is off Conquering myself Until I see another hurdle approaching Say we can, say we will Not just another drop in the ocean Ocean Watch the fingers close When the hands are cold Am I the happy loss Will I still recoil When the skin is lost Am I the worthy cross Will I still be soiled When the dirt is off Am I the happy loss Will I still be soiled When the dirt is off ------------- Lyrics Powered by LyricFind Written By MCCULLOCH, IAN STEPHEN / SERGEANT, WILLIAM ALFRED / PATTINSON, LESLIE THOMAS / DE FREITAS, PETER LOUIS VINCENT <i>Lyrics © Warner/Chappell Music, Inc.</i> |

no way home bringing the dancing horses headless and all alone shiver and say the words of every lie you've heard first I'm gonna make it then I'm gonna break it till it falls apart hating all the faking and shaking while I'm breaking you're brittle heart Billy stands all alone sinking sand skin and bone bring on the dancing horses wherever they may roam bring on the new messiah wherever he may roam |

I want it now
I want it now Not the promises of what tomorrow brings I need to live in dreams today I'm tired of the song that sorrow sings And I want more than I can get Just trying to, trying to, trying to forget I'd walk to you through rings of fire And never let you know the way I feel Under skin is where I hide The love that always gets me on my knees And I want more than I can get Just trying to, trying to, trying to forget [Repeat: x4] Nothing ever lasts forever I want it now I want it now Don't tell me that my ship is coming in Nothing comes to those who wait Time's running out the door you're running in So, I want more than I can get Just trying to, trying to, trying to forget [Repeat: x4] Nothing ever lasts forever [Repeat: x8] All the shadows and the pain are coming to you |
