The way it was in the past
A long, long time ago Before staff levels dropped They used to listen to the radio And listen to the DJ's talk About the songs they didn't know As if it really mattered Hit-pick or phone-in show I don't want you to go tonight Ten thousand watts of power News headlines on the hour tonight Our music beats the best You just don't need the rest tonight Once I couldn't care at all But I can feel the ratings fall tonight And 20 years ago No-one seemed to care The people must have known The DJ's role was only there To fill in space between the songs That talk of love and other things As if they didn't matter Automatic stations came And sent them all away And now I'm left alone I haven't got a word to say And you're the one who makes the choice To turn me on or turn me off But now it really matters Hit-pick or phone-in show I don't want you to go tonight Ten thousand watts of power News headlines on the hour tonight Our music beats the best You just don't need the rest tonight Once I couldn't care at all But I can feel the ratings fall tonight Hit-pick or phone-in show I don't want you to go tonight Ten thousand watts of power News headlines on the hour tonight Our music beats the best You just don't need the rest tonight Ten thousand watts of power News headlines on the hour tonight |

Can you feel it when
your throat dries? Can you see it in the night sky? Just a mumble round at tea time Smile When I'm watching you When I was a child We were living in fear Living in fear When I was a child Just a light year from here Living in fear Worlds may shatter Years don't matter Words came back to haunt you Worlds may shatter Years don't matter Words came back to haunt you Friends past missing Reminiscing Words came back to haunt you Tolerating propaganda And your girlfriend, Alexandra With her secret memoranda Signs For an interview Searching for the light In the world of the blahs Masquerading as stars How can this be right? You've been going too far Leaving conscience ajar Worlds may shatter Years don't matter Words came back to haunt you Friends past missing Reminiscing Words came back to haunt you When I was a child We were living in fear Living in fear Worlds may shatter Years don't matter Words came back to haunt you Worlds may shatter Years don't matter Words came back to haunt you Friends past missing Reminiscing Words came back to haunt you Worlds may shatter Years don't matter Words came back to haunt you Friends past missing Reminiscing Words came back to haunt you |

Who'll stop the rain
Who'll stop the action East side west side The world moves on I heard a rumour that fires were started Flame in the streets and tension uncharted Bigger than life at the edge of the city Ashes and diamonds gleaming with pity Who'll stop the rain Who'll stop the action East side west side The world moves on Between midnight and dawn you slept through the deadlines Believe in me and we'll hit the tall headlines Look up and laugh be happy today Here come the waves count three pray Who'll stop the rain Who'll stop the action East side west side The world moves on A global affair in big house U.S.A. A moving violation angels over Broadway The next voice you hear will be the main attraction The next time we love standby for action Meet me tonight and love me for ever Let's be happy let's be famous whatever the weather The rain must fall and night time is calling Golden boy and golden girl it's a great day in the morning Who'll stop the rain Who'll stop the action East side west side The world moves on |

I don't care about life
Or the world around me I've got a place to go I don't care what you say Words cannot harm me You're going down below Come and join the fun on the way to heaven Come and talk to god on the party line If you can't be bothered, we don't need you We're going to live for a very long time I don't care for your views Or your style of living You're going to fail the test You can argue all night I have no misgivings And I never get depressed Come and join the fun on the way to heaven Come and talk to god on the party line If you can't be bothered, we don't need you We're going to live for a very long time Come and join the fun on the way to heaven Come and talk to god on the party line If you can't be bothered, we don't need you We're going to live for a very long time You may think that it's strange This is all I live for But you can't understand If you listen to me I'll explain it carefully You must know I am right Come and join the fun on the way to heaven Come and talk to god on the party line If you can't be bothered, we don't need you We're going to live for a very long time He'll give you one more chance Now's the time to take it He's waiting for your call You'll be up there with me We'll be grinning in heaven When the day of judgment comes Come and join the fun on the way to heaven Come and talk to god on the party line If you can't be bothered, we don't need you We're going to live for a very long time for a very long time (repeat until end) |

I don't believe everything I see
God only knows I believe in science Mr. Einstein, help me please I'd like to know what's really real Keeping up with the times when everyone looks the same A synthetic paradise takes the kick out of cocaine It I want I can have a new obsession every day An escalating addiction and I know I can afford to pay The first to be and last to know Like a film or a book or a TV show These thing's we're seeing constantly Pass through and out of you It pours into the ground and makes rivers flow It spills into the oceans, makes the feeling grow Becomes a cloud and rains and rains But it always leaves you needing more It's strange the way it feels to live this way Losing touch as all resistance slips away There's an eye that lets you see what you want to see Reach out inside and you cold be what you want to be It pours into the ground and makes rivers flow It spills into the oceans, makes the feeling grow Becomes a cloud and rains and rains But it always leaves you needing more It's unreal but it's strange the way it feels the way to live this way Losing sight, lousing touch as all resistance slips away In your mind there's an eye that lets you see what you want to see Then you could reach out inside and you could be what you want to be Keeping up with the times when everybody looks the same Synthetic paradise takes the kick out of cocaine If I want I can have a new obsession every day An escalating addiction and I know I can afford to pay |

You can have it all I don't need it Tell them this is mine Wanting is no crime Happens all the time When it gets you down Rise and leave it Tell them this is mine Push away the stone We are not alone Look into my eyes And together we will rise Above all we've seen We will realize Synchronize Tell them this is mine Wanting is no crime Happens all the time Hold Touch this hand of mine Come away and find What we left behind So move up, we're going on To the top, we'll take it One by one we've got the feeling Which of us is not believing now? You can have it all I don't need it Tell them this is mine Wanting is no crime Happens all the time When it gets you down Rise and leave it Tell them this is mine |

Ah ah
Here's a song About living in the past If it was so good then How come it didn't last? If it helps you I'll put it in a phrase Those were the times But these are the days These are the days x4 The times you're smiling back on Had that great sitcom It hardly compensated For the terror of the bomb Let me help 'Cause you're looking through a haze Those were the times These are the days These are the days Hey hey hey These are the days Can you hear me now? These are the days Look around look around look around These are the days These are the days Hey hey live today These are the days It's time to put the past away These are the days The more you do the more you say These are the days The more I need to get away You're longing for a time there never was Now tell me the truth You're looking for the reason It's because You're fighting for youth But if I have to listen any more To fantasy talk Or any other bug you have I'm leaving Now I'm not saying Everything is really great Hey hey hey After sixteen years Of legalised class hate Why waste time Looking back for things to praise? Those were the times huh But these are the days These are the days Looking back in history These are the days Time to get contempory These are the days The past is not the place to be |

Speaking of which, what is your choice
Your conversation will suffice I feel the need that's known to all Better use it up before the levels fall You can take me back to the primal drive You can carry on until we arrive Hypnotised inside Now I'm not young and you're not old I'd rather purchase than be sold Crazed friends so bold It's not easy to conceal When you're so touchable People will hide indifference Just to be touchable They still emit split second screams When they are touchable Under the surface just for kicks Sincerely touchable You say it's okay, but what do I feel Guilt, compassion, or Achilles Heel Little feet march down grey matter hill Then panic occurs, no seeds to spill What's the matter now Please look up and speak Your spirit's wilting and your flesh is weak Eight days a week I can't imagine what'll happen now I wonder when and I wonder how The end will come It's not easy to conceal When you're so touchable People will hide indifference Just to be touchable It's not easy to conceal When you're so touchable People will hide indifference Just to be touchable They still emit split second screams When they are touchable Under the surface just for kicks Sincerely touchable The final answer to all our fears Abrupt conclusion to all our years Still touchable but no one hears They carry on hypnotised inside |

The skin I'm in
It's hard to see, I know This skin I'm in We're never free Don't you agree? Yet another age has passed We all must look away From the way we are today We must look away On every fate Opening eyes will see Who does not cry? This skin I'm in No-one can hide How's the world been leaving you? The future came too late For the ones who cannot wait It will come too late This skin I'm in Down to the bone, our blood Fit for a king It's no surprise There's no disguise Maybe all we need is time To wipe away the tears We let fall throughout the years You must hide your tears Within this skin Until the end we grow And as we sing We have no more to show Now walk and say nothing |

Faced with the choice, what would you say?
The path of least resistance, It seems the only way But can we look a little further? To level four I think Self-belief's the answer, and not another drink The safe method, the only way, you rationalise your course Stay part of the crowd, and never find the source Feel wanted, feel numb, just stay as you are The truth is - comfort kills, and you don't need that car So sad, the early grave, when all the fun's for free Start digging the early grave, and keep it warm for me Faced with the choice, what would you say? The path of least resistance, It seems the only way But let's look a little further, to level four, I think Self-belief's the answer, and not another drink The safe method, the only way, you rationalise your course Stay a part of the crowd, and never find the source Feel wanted, feel numb, just stay as you are The truth is, comfort kills, and you don't need that car |

She dreams of nineteen sixty-nine
Before the soldiers came The life was cheap on bread and wine And sharing meant no shame She is awakened by the screams Of rockets flying from nearby And scared she clings onto her dreams To beat the fear that she might die And who will have won When the soldiers have gone From the lebanon The lebanon Before he leaves the camp he stops He scans the world outside And where there used to be some shops Is where the snipers sometimes hide He left his home the week before He thought he'd be like the police But now he finds he is at war "weren't we supposed to keep the peace" And who will have won When the soldiers have gone From the lebanon The lebanon The lebanon From the lebanon I must be dreaming It can't be true I must be dreaming It can't be true And who will have won When the soldiers have gone? From the lebanon The lebanon The lebanon From the lebanon |

I wish I'd never heard the news
(Never had a good day) Baby wants a pair of shoes (How'm I gonna repay?) A thousand fingers touch my heart I need so much Blue Force is tearing me apart No time for might have been You're on the winning team No time to choose It's time to light the fuse I know there's nothing I can do (Don't let it freeze you) The age of miracles is through (They're never gonna please you) The iceman's back, he treats the crowds And ice is free Blue force is pouring from the clouds Tonight could be the night We'll walk into the cool light Though I'll not see you again Light the fuse now! They say the best's too good for you Your head's on fire) That golden letdown can't be true (Push push a little higher) But when they say that we can't win And you agree Blue force will never fight for sin I heard a voice tonight Calling by satellite 'Thousands are right And some will light the fuse" No time for might have been You're on the winning team No time to choose It's time to light the fuse I heard a voice tonight Calling by satellite 'Thousands are right And some will light the fuse" No time for might have been You're on the winning team No time to choose It's time to light the fuse |

Been out all night, I needed a bite, I thought I'd put a record on
I reached for the one with the ultra-modern label, and wondered where the light had gone It had a futuristic cover, lifted straight from Buck Rogers The record was so black it had to be a con The autochanger switched as I filled my sandwich And futuristic sounds warbled off and on The black hit of space It's the one without a face It's the one that doesn't fit You can only see the flip The black hit of space Sucking in the human race How can it stay at the top When it's swallowed all the shops As the song climbed the charts, the others disappeared Til there was nothing but it left to buy It got to number one, then into minus figures Though nobody could understand why The black hit of space It's the one without a face It's the one that doesn't fit You can only see the flip The black hit of space Sucking in the human race How can it stay at the top When it's swallowed all the shops I couldn't stand this bland sound any more so I walked towards my deck to turn it off All I could see was the B-side of the disc which had assumed a doughnut shape with the label on the outside rim I reached for the arm which was less than one micron long but weighed more than Saturn and time stood still I knew I had to escape but every time I tried to flee, the record was in front of me The black hit of space Get James Burke on the case It's the hit that's never gone Time stops when you put it...(on) |

Empire of fantasy with a dark gloved fist aloft While the challenger explodes Banks are failing coming down hard The way things are going I'm moving to the sun belt Stars and stripes, forever is a long time Don't ask me what's to be done Ask what you can do for your country ? The Big Dipper' coming down Miss America's lost her crown Guess I've spent too long in this old town No time to run and hide We've been taken for a ride America leads the world in teenage suicide I always thought it would have been great To be a part of the United States a land of unmissed opportunity A friend seems so far ahead A land safe on film Untouched by reality But like a well played record seemed to scratch The news that real life and cinema don't match Even Forrest Gump can't save us now The king of Hollywood is dead I don't care what the president said I don't believe in everything I've read The Big Dipper's coming down New York's just a shanty town That distant sound is L.A. burning down The golden years of justice The golden years of youth The golden years of liberty The golden years of truth Laser bombin' Status seekin' Trail blazin' Frontier pushin' Space racin' Earth quakin' Jesus freakin' Serial killin' Cult crushin' Net surfin' Networkin' Fast talkin' Gun runnin' Fun lovin' America !

Sun crazed in our room
It was an endless afternoon It seemed that we were so immune The nights were stronger and longer I fell on my pillow saying "Tell the world that lucky's calling Gold dust falling Here in Action Town" Sunset now Sunset now Sunset now Sunset now Blade flew into town In time to watch the sun go down He said the new prince must be found The message shattered our windows We know it was over, saying "Tell the boys that we're not handing Over any part Of Action Town" Sunset now Sunset now Sunset now now! now! Pay out, run out, work out, die out Action Town (Action Town) If you have the name Then you win the game In Action Town (Action Town) Bang bang you're dead It's raining bread Sunset now Now that we have gone Do we have strength to carry on It seems like all our sun has shone It seems our dice are as cold as ice But something in my heart keeps saying Tell the world that lucky's coming Lines are humming Here comes Action Town" Sunset now (to fade) |

It was an endless afternoon It seemed that we were so immune The nights were stronger and longer I fell on my pillow saying "Tell the world that lucky's calling Gold dust falling Here in Action Town" Sunset now Sunset now Sunset now Sunset now Blade flew into town In time to watch the sun go down He said the new prince must be found The message shattered our windows We know it was over, saying "Tell the boys that we're not handing Over any part Of Action Town" Sunset now Sunset now Sunset now now! now! Pay out, run out, work out, die out Action Town (Action Town) If you have the name Then you win the game In Action Town (Action Town) Bang bang you're dead It's raining bread Sunset now Now that we have gone Do we have strength to carry on It seems like all our sun has shone It seems our dice are as cold as ice But something in my heart keeps saying Tell the world that lucky's coming Lines are humming Here comes Action Town" Sunset now (to fade) |

If I was someone else
Would you still say what you're saying? If I were someone else Would you conscience be straying? Soul warfare It's all that I can do To put my faith in you It's all that I can give To be a fugitive It's all that there can be Not wanting to be free It's all that I can take These fifteen days awake It's more than I can hide My needs can't be denied A million miles or more Can't keep me from your door There is no place to run Until the fighting's done More bloodshed every day The soul war's here to stay If I want something more It could be you who'll be paying As this is my soul war These are the rules we'll be playing It's not for you to say Which district I'll be destroying You could never know The tactics I'll be employing You could be part of me Forget the wealth you're forsaking Your strategy is clear My soul is there for the taking It's all that I can do To put my faith in you It's all that I can give To be a fugitive It's all that there can be Not wanting to be free It's all that I can take These fifteen days awake It's more than I can hide My needs can't be denied A million miles or more Can't keep me from your door There is no place to run Until the fighting's done More bloodshed every day The soul war's here to stay |

Can't sleep, trying hard to find a rhyme
Can't work, I am tired all the time Can't eat, since my appetite has gone Can't think, when it started to go wrong Can't move, I've no energy to fight Can't see, any end to this in sight Last week, I could do all of those things But now, I am just the man who sings I've searched around for years and years I've drank in bars, destroyed careers Sold on a need to be famous I've seen the good in men survive Only to fail when I arrive Convincing them I am blameless I was the man with future sight I would change fortunes overnight Knowing for me it was painless Can't sleep, trying hard to find a rhyme Can't work, I am tired all the time Can't eat, since my appetite has gone Can't think, when it started to go wrong Can't move, I've no energy to fight Can't see, any end to this in sight Last week, I could do all of those things But now, I am just the man who sings One day in April 10:15 Awakened screaming by a dream Something that touched me was burning A diamond pin fell from my eye Then something strange began to cry "Your will can stop this world turning" Since then I've fought more than I should Against the will that I withstood Hoping I could be its master But now the dream is all I see There is no hope of breaking free One song away from disaster Can't move, I've no energy at all Can't see, any end to this in sight Last week, I could do all of those things But now, I am just the man who sings |

Guess who's walking in your tracks
(Don't look back) Forcing you to re-enact (Making contact) No-one's safe when Shame is on the rocks There's no faith when Shame is on the rocks Bow your head, you'll hear his call (Hear his call) Such a shame, for one so tall (Instant recall) No-one walks when Shame is on the rocks There's no talk when Shame is on the rocks Slower than the second coming It will happen all the same Knowing why the spirit's broken It's a shame Think before you say a word (Someone heard) Go before you are disturbed (Days are numbered) Lose your aim when Shame is on the rocks Miss the train when Shame is on the rocks Shame is the one with power in his hand There he waits, without a plan But no-one came, it's such a...

Do you feel disturbance ?
A disturbance hits the news You can't dismiss it or ignore it And you've waited so long for it It's the winner's turn to lose (We can't wait another day) In Paris and Geneve In Frankfurt and Berlin In London, Rome and Lisbon A crisis will begin Do you feel anticipation ? Do you feel you're being used ? It's the resurrection showdown It's the winners turn to lose Let's go all the way There's a target to destroy Let's go all the way There's an army to deploy Let's go all the way You're free to make a choice Are you ready ? Let's say it now with just one voice Change, Change, Change I'm the resurrection man Let's go all the way Reach out and touch my hand Let's go all the way You know somebody's got to pay Get ready Get ready for the judgement day This is a song of independence You think you've seen it all before I know you run and try and hide it And sometimes you might deny it But you've got a taste for more (Isn't that worth fighting for ?) Let's go all the way Can't you see that we've had enough Let's go all the way Before the going gets too rough Let's go all the way You're free to use your voice Are you ready ? Win or lose you have a choice Change, Change, Change There's a target to destroy Let's go all the way There's an army to deploy Let's go all the way Someone has got to pay Get ready Let's say it now with just one voice Change, Change, Change I'm the resurrection man Let's go all the way Reach out and touch my hand Let's go all the way There's nothing more to say Are you ready Get ready for the judgement day |

I don't have a reputation
Falling faster all the time Help me make my reputation I'll help yours if you'll help mine My clothes are too big for my body My body's too big for my mind I don't like humiliation I can change my clothes But I don't think I'll change my mind Hey look! I just bought a beach house So bring all your friends along I don't need an explanation Boss says I must leave right now Take the night plane to Vermont Here I go, I'm swinging low Move out of my way Come and take a look at what I've found Here I am, I've got a plan Don't walk away My reputation follows me around Once there was a girl in New York Wonder where that girl has gone She was full of adulation I tried to phone her Strange the number turns out wrong I've got all I ever wanted But what I've got, no-one wants to share They turned down my application Please won't you let me in Seems like no-one ever cares |

Who's going to think for you? When the time comes You'll have to see it through Use your instinct And take a risk or two Don't you worry 'Cause you'll know what to do You can give so Much to me But I don't want it I will be free For the last time I'm going out the door You don't need me To help you anymore Eyes wide open I see it's different now Keep your comfort I'll get along somehow You can have my money I don't need it anymore I don't need your invitation Down that lonesome corridor Breakdown You can have my money I don't need it anymore I don't need your invitation Down that lonesome corridor Nothing good comes easily Count the cost, I will be free You can scream and disagree I don't want it - I will be free You can have my money I don't need it anymore I don't need your invitation Down that lonesome corridor Nothing good comes easily Count the cost, I will be free You can scream and disagree I don't want it - I will be free |

from Heaven 17 - Bigger Than America (1996)
Tell me
Should I be surprised By the thought of something new Slowly As I realise Start a fire in my mind Through earthly desire To find a better place Trying to find a way To heaven and higher A long way from my world No tears of emotion for my own devotion Just like an illusion It seems so real This is how I'm going to feel Maybe forever I'm stronger This time Than I've been before Tomorrow...Maybe forever The power of suggestion Deceiver and deceived My senses slide away It's such a distraction I wish I had no memory Waiting for someone just like you to find me Just like an illusion It seems so real This is how I'm going to feel Maybe forever I'm stronger This time Than I've been before Tomorrow...Maybe forever The sea of change Pulls me in Almost naked Perfect Angel Your voice Saves me Dislocate your mind I'm waiting for someone just like you to find me Just like an illusion It seems so real This is how I'm going to feel Maybe forever I'm stronger This time Than I've been before Tomorrow...Maybe forever In silence In darkness Together now at least until Tomorrow...Maybe forever The distance between us Will fade away People come and stay Sometimes forever and ever Maybe forever Forever and ever and ever ... |

from The Human League - Travelogue (2003)
(As interpreted by Virgin Records Japan)
(Accuracy is NOT guaranteed) I take one look at you It leaves me breathless I see your dream's come true You're not so restless Or light, or bright Marianne One day I might not care What happens to me Your lack of sympathy Fails to disturb me I've got a life of my own I remember the day I thought we couldn't lose Running round the garden In your mother's shoes Playing silly sisters And drinking green tea On a cold autumn day Someone's car had broken down The best of summer ends When you give a celebration We can leave but we can't really go on It would spoil the celebration Add it up, all that's left is a space in your life That goes on as before One day I might not care What happens to me Your lack of sympathy Fails to disturb me I've got a life of my own Add it up, all that's left is a space in your life That goes on as before Marianne Add it up, all that's left is a space in your life That goes on as before Marianne Add it up, all that's left is a space in your life That goes on as before Marianne Add it up, all that's left is a space in your life At the end of the world Marianne |

from The Human League - Crash (2003)
I was wondering
All the time that I was waiting When would I rise From the years that I'd been hating For the first time Living seemed to mean so much to me Like the day time Shining from the night that used to be Just when it seemed like My chances all had gone I found a reason To fight to carry on Look back in anger Look back in fun But take what you want Love on the run Life hates a loser Look what you've done Hold up your head Love on the run So the page turned Someone there to read my history Understanding Always wants to see the best in me For the future Looking just a little like a dream Warm and hazy Living everyday but more extreme Just when it seemed like My chances all had gone I found a reason To fight to carry on Look what you've done Look back in anger Look back in fun Write your own story Love on the run Life hates a loser Look what you've done Revel in glory Love on the run Look back in anger Look back in fun But take what you want Love on the run Life hates a loser Look what you've done Hold up your head Love on the run Hold your head up Hold your head up Hold your head up Love on the run Hold your head up Hold your head up Hold your head up Look back in anger Look back in fun Write your own story Love on the run Life hates a loser Look what you've done Revel in glory Love on the run |
