Give it a word, give it a try
Why don't you sleep out, stop living high You're on your own, your making bed Now time for wasting, just look ahead Your poopa don't mind what you do or say You can't surprise him anymore He's got a reputation and he don't know fad Your poppa don't mind at all He's getting old, he's getting late It's soon tomorrow, so celebrate Bring it out, and go to town Before you're thinking, sell him now? Your poopa don't mind what you do or say You can't surprise him anymore He don't believe in heaven like a good man should Your poppa don't mind at all Find him out, he's half a fun When you find out, don't try to run If you know, then you'll be gone And if you don't know, it's still to come Your poopa don't mind what you do or say You can't surprise him anymore He talked about his women and his old school tie Your poppa don't mind at all You can't surprise him anymore He don't believe in heaven like a good man should Your poppa don't mind at all Your poppa don't mind at all Your poppa don't mind at all |

You win, I lose

When you're in heaven
What you gonna do? You're gonna sit around a cloud and say "Hey, what a lovely view" Is there a reason, why you're like you are? Is there a reason you'll be leaving? Is my love out of season? I wouldn't mind but to me that is Treason You started laughing When I held you in my arms You started leaving When I told you of my charms I was in love with you and then you said, we're through And then I said, "Boo hoo" Was my tie not on straight? Was it something I ate? |

You've been dropping in on, everyone all over town Say what you like, but you just don't know your place And everywhere we go, people seem to know your face You've been checkin' out the scene, every single night Never knowing where you've been, you say it's alright I placed all my faith in you, and you let me down Everything I say is true, but you don't hear a sound Yeh you ought to be ashamed, but you don't accept the blame They said it was too late, for your love They said it was too late, you're gonna go They said I was too late, for your love They said I was too late, you're gonna go You never can tell with friends You never can tell with You never can tell with You never can tell with friends You never can tell with You never can tell with Yes every now and then, my mind turns things around And I believe it's true, that our love can still be found Just one thing I care about, from sea to shinging sea And you know that's the love you give, the love you give to me You've been checkin' out the scene, every single night Never knowing where you've been, you say it's alright I placed all my faith in you, then you let me down Everything I say is true, but you don't hear a sound Yeh you ought to be ashamed, but you don't accept the blame They said it was too late, for your love They said it was too late, you're gonna go They said I was too late, for your love They said It was too late, you're gonna go You never can tell with friends You never can tell with You never can tell with You never can tell with friends You never can tell with You never can tell with You never can tell with friends You never can tell with You never can tell with You never can tell with friends You never can tell with You never can tell with ... |

Who'll face the tide
And take their chances? Will fasten the line To broken branches Adrift on the ocean in wild winter storms I have to imagine things to keep myself warm The night closing in, but not to worry Told everyone I know, that I was sorry And I heard them all singing For comfort and peace And in my confusion Yeah I still believe You are the one to make me cry You are the one to take me home Of all the people in my life My thoughts keep returning to you But consciousness is fading fast Surrounded by signs that go on living Make circles in time, a spidersweb spinning But I have no illusions of where I am now I'll let this wave take me and draw me down You are the one to make me cry You are the one to take me home Of all the stories in your life Only good things return to you If I could only say the word If you could hear me cry for help I lift my head up to the sky But the planes that were circling now have gone |

Why sing a lonely song?
The whole world knows that love goes wrong Why loose a heart that isn't broken? It isn't broken, it can't be broken Life's just a show for free Come along and watch with me The only sins are words unspoken Words unspoken, never spoken Sweet things come and go Give me shame, I'll give you wow To live for love isn't so easy It isn't easy, it won't be easy! How all good men try, Look around and wonder why Can they shape this world to please me Can they please me, should they please me? I follow but maybe you'll correct me I wish you'd never met me For I am your gentle man I follow and while you watch and wonder I call my world a sundown And show you who I am Send me a gentle dream of love so strange it's never seen And proof how such a love can happen It can happen, make it happen Fine things tumble down Fade away without a sound But hope must never end or slacken Never slacken, never slacken I follow but maybe you'll correct me I wish you'd never met me I am your gentle man I follow and while you watch and wonder I call my world a sundown And show you who I am |

Where there's a will, there's a way Or so they say A friend in need is a friend indeed He'll be there every day And if it's trouble that's in store You know they'll tell you even more Where there's a will, there's a way That's what thet'll say When the writing is on the wall And if you could fall When your best ain't good enough And life's tough When the lad of hope and dreams Isn't always what it seems Where there's a will, there's a way They always say You may be sorry, you may be sad, you may be blue You think you'll never see the sun come breaking thru You struggle morning noon and night And you still I can't get it right But where there's a will, there's a way Just say it every day so much for pain Well so much for trouble, so much for heartache You just gotta get up, you just gotta reach out You gotta try and try again You think you'll never see it thru But what the hell you gonna do Where there's a will, there's a way You've heard'em say Well I don't no nothing 'bout this world But after all is said and done and all it's wrong I can tell you now, why we all can't get along We gootta keep on, keepin' on 'Cos where there's a will, there's a way I don't know what to say Thru all your sorrows In times of sadness, all your dreams, and all your joys in time of grief and even times that you enjoy As your life you live it through You know it all depends on you And if where there's a will, there's a way You better get down and pray From the cradle to the grave You better say it every day When the crime's above the law When the mighty oceans roar When the plane's about to fall When tomorrow's at your door Where there's a will, there's a way That's what they'll say

The odd times we slip
And slither down the dark hall Fingers point from old windows An eerie shadow falls I'm walking on the spot To show that I'm alive Moving every bone in my body From side to side Will we be in our minds when the dawn breaks Can we look the milkman in the eye The world is somehow different, you have all been changed Before my very eyes Walk around your home Pour yourself a drink Fire one more torpedo, baby Watch the kitchen sink You're lounging on the sofa, maybe See the living room die The dishes are unwashed and broken All you do is cry See the living room die The dishes are unwashed and broken All you do is cry |

She walked her way down
It brought my mind back From where I was trapped How long will it take For tension to break Feel it sliding off Shimmy-like cloth I left on the ground And I know what the answer is And I'm happy to be here tonight But when you're in the moment Everything you want is right But before she takes a step She's waiting for the beat to arrive And the drummer's counting out the start She walked her way down In silver and black Tension is snapped I picked up the trace A scent I can't place Remembering desire Higher and high Lift off the ground And I know what the answer is But I'm happy to be here tonight And when you're in the moment Everything you want is right From before she takes a step She's waiting for the beat to arrive The drummer makes the same mistake And my eyes are on the shape That is captured in the light All went quiet on the floor When she walked her way down As we happen to be here tonight But don't we make a beautiful sight And when you're in the moment Everything you want is right But before she takes a step She's waiting for the beat to arrive If you're tamed by all the pressure Everything you want to become The drummer always comes in late And my eyes are on the shake That is captured in the light And I want to feel the weightless grasp Upon my heavy life |

Did you get all you want? Did you see the whole show? So where’s all the fun That we used to know? As the memories fade Way out of view I’d love those old days To come back to you I’ve been waiting so long I’m not feeling so strong Did you say what you mean? Did you mean what you say? About this new scene Is it really that way? But the blindness goes on You say it’s not so But what do you know? I’ve been waiting so long I’m not feeling so strong Ain’t nothing new, it’s just the same old thing You got me singing those old blues again Angry music, words of fire Painted faces filled with rage Even then they sound so tired I must be set in my old ways If this world is unimpressive It’s been that way for quite awhile I don’t need no heavy message Just turn me on and make me smile Yes I’ve been waiting such a long time Just for something to ring true Now I’d rather taste the old wine Than mess around with something new And the blindness goes on The blindness goes on

Travelled the world a million ways
Catching upon a familiar gaze Everyone lives by do or die There's no one with time to laugh or cry There's no one to tell us what we're living for And though I try to be a good man I just know that I'll be losing very soon And there are times and there are motions When I do believe I'm going out of tune, oh Now I've been around a long, long while Looking for sun to make me smile But still multiply their daily bread They're thinking there lies good times ahead It must be a mighty funny way to feel And though I try to be a good man I keep finding out there's nowhere to begin And so I think I'll go on singing And in time I hope that we can all join in, oh |

Talk to her, that's right
It could mean more than you think Talk to her, that's right And you don't have to lose a thing Leave the boots and saddle outside You could make her happy again Laugh about the time She threw the dinner at you And in the coconut grove You can imagine the scene Another bus unloads We're still waiting to leave Talk to her, that's nice Or you could make a murder begin Breathe on her, that's right Once more you will be her friend She's the only who knows Where you're from and where you've been And what remains unsaid Can leave you hanging in between I spent a lot of time in the transit lounge And I wasn't sure where I was going now The papers I read were all yesterday's news Not a hundred percent sure what I did with my shoes Lying on the floor of the transit lounge There'll be no announcements made Better make sure you don't sleep too sound There'll be no announcements made There'll be no announcements made And you can dream about the things You meant to do before you die Break him out, the one Who's waiting for his moment to shine All the stupid things I said Will haunt you, will linger I guess And in the coconut grove You can imagine the scene Another bus unloads We're still waiting to leave The camera flash goes off See the tallest man alive And Thai massage his feet Before his long plane ride |

Look at all the plans I made
Falling down like scraps of paper I will leave them where they lie to remind me From the past a rumour comes Don't let it keep draggin' you down Throw the memory in an open fire You'll be free Roll back the tombstone Let the saints appear Roll back the tombstone Make a new man out of me Beware the passenger The train already left the station We are neither at home nor at work We are moving Listen to the howling of steel A face betraying no emotion Like you never had a chance to be Wild and free Roll back the tombstone Let the saints appear Roll back the tombstone Till the Lone Ranger rides again Rides again in your mind Rode across the open plain All the way and back again |

Captain I am sorry that the ship should go astray
Letting the ocean have its own way Lay me down to pass exam, I'll pay for all my sins Pleading for mercy, my cancel begins Times have changed, and my vision ain't so strong For the battle was too long for me to bear I don't feel the pain, for my soul is sinking fast And I notice there's at last a chance for me In and out of turmoil, and in and out of mind Deeper the ocean, stronger the tide Stormy seas surround me, no sails to keep me dry I prayed to you captain, but you heard not my cry Times have changed, and my vision ain't so strong For the battle was too long for me to bear I don't feel the pain, for my soul is sinking fast And I notice there's at last a chance for me For me, for my story Let me lie in peace I want to say I'm sorry now Then I'll be on my way Then I'll be on my way Then I'll be on my way Times have changed, and my vision ain't so strong For the battle was too long for me to bear I don't feel the pain, for my soul is sinking fast And I notice there's at last a chance for me |

When I was young,
it seemed that life was so wonderful, a miracle, oh it was beautiful, magical. And all the birds in the trees, well they'd be singing so happily, joyfully, playfully watching me. But then they send me away to teach me how to be sensible, logical, responsible, practical. And they showed me a world where I could be so dependable, clinical, intellectual, cynical. There are times when all the world's asleep, the questions run too deep for such a simple man. Won't you please, please tell me what we've learned I know it sounds absurd but please tell me who I am. Now watch what you say or they'll be calling you a radical, liberal, fanatical, criminal. Won't you sign up your name, we'd like to feel you're acceptable, respectable, presentable, a vegetable! At night, when all the world's asleep, the questions run so deep for such a simple man. Won't you please, please tell me what we've learned I know it sounds absurd but please tell me who I am. |

"Don't know who came he just set upon me It's kind of vague and I'm, I'm kind of groggy But you must believe me, he just stopped breathing I know it wasn't me" I didn't do it, it wasn't me It's gettin' late we can't afford to wait [repeat] Gettin' late we can't afford to wait You're on the wrong station, you're on the wrong track You lost your reservation and you can't get back Tenth Avenue breakdown You're getting to shake down, unlucky for you It's getting rough, it's just too tough I've got to go, feel so low I'm all abused and so confused Just can't wait

When lonely days turn to lonely nights you take a trip to the city lights And take the long way home Take the long way home You never see what you want to see Forever playing to the gallery You take the long way home Take the long way home And when you're up on the stage, it's so unbelievable, unforgettable, how they adore you, But then your wife seems to think you're losing your sanity, oh, calamity, is there no way out? Does it feel that you life's become a catastrophe? Oh, it has to be for you to grow, boy. When you look through the years and see what you could have been oh, what might have been, if you'd had more time. So, when the day comes to settle down, Who's to blame if you're not around? You took the long way home You took the long way home........... |

Surely there's a way I could please you
Only in your past lie the tears Surely there's a day you can say went your way Some illusion you can keep through the years Only if I lied could I love you Nothing of our lives could we share Only could we try to get by on a sigh Just because, just this once, I was there |

In the middle of our summer romance
He walked up to her and he asked her to dance I could see the old lovelight in her eyes See the lovelight in her eyes It took a while to say How's your new love babe? My heart was beating with a rage like thunder And when I saw him I began to wonder I could see the old lovelight in his eyes See the lovelight in his eyes It took a while to say How's your new love babe? Well in the middle of our summer romance He walked up to her and he said, please give me another chance I could see the old lovelight in her eyes See the lovelight in her eyes It took a while to say How's your new love babe Yes it did Took a while to say How's your new love babe Ah yeah Took a while to say How's your new love babe |

Sooner or later it's gonna get better
Sooner or later I'm gonna get over her You know I can't go on like this It's just a matter of time There'll come a day when I will wake up Without her on my mind Sooner or later it's gonna get better Sooner or later I'm gonna get over her They say that time will heal everything So I'm winding the clock And waiting for the glorious moment When my heartache will stop She let me go It took me by surprise I feel out of place Without her by my side Sooner or later it's gonna get better Sooner or later I'm gonna get over her Sooner or later Sooner or later Sooner or later Sooner or later Sooner or later |

I went back my home town
To the school and walked around And the way it felt Seemed just like yesterday From the cradle to the grave Some say we never change No matter how we try We try to rearrange And like father so like son It's as if wife we're both as one Just as if our fate was... it was pre-ordained In some countries far from here You know the one's we used to fear Are they waiting to return to Those old evil ways You can take a correspondence course Be single, married or divorced You can psychoanalyze your brain But you know some things will never change And what will all those people do When Russia starts anew They'll just stand in line All under a different name You can listen to those brainwash tapes Take a Jewish, Catholic, Buddhist faith But I'm sure it's gonna be in vain 'Cos you know some things will never change And if their theories all come true Then there's nothin' we can do Where the future lies Well it's not to hard to tell But after all is said and done And the world lives as one You can bid those old taboo's A fond fare well Yes a long fare well A very long fare well |

Did your shadow ever speak to you?
And did he say that something's wrong? Only a figure on a lamplit wall Never realized he cared at all Did he stop you going on? Guess my shadow spoke to me tonight And made me throw my dreams away Told a story of a twisted man Who was playing with some foolish plan 'Bout a girl who had flew away Sometimes shadows are near I see things very clear: my life unwinds Somewhere I'll make my stand Look around at yesterday And change my mind Now your shadow isn't always there In the light of cloudy days Or in circles where you hide from view All the dust that ever bothered you And where people loose your name' |

They tell you not to hang around and learn what life's about After School is over you're playing in the park Don't be out too late, don't let it get too dark And grow up just like them - won't you let it work it out - and you're full of doubt What are they trying to do? Do they know where it's at? Don't do this and don't do that - Make a good boy of you Don't want the devil to Don't criticise, they're old and wise Do as they tell you to Come out and put your eyes Or maybe I'm just crazy, I don't know wrong from right Maybe I'm mistaken expecting you to fight It's always up to you if you want to be that But while I am still living, I've just got this to say want to see that want to see that way - you're coming along |

I won't forget The phrase that turned in my head And at the start It makes no sense A long time left to understand There on the shore The girl that I adore She combs her hair on the sand And I know You got to fight the plan You got to bend the rules Yeah I know You got be your own man You got break the rules I think too much The alphabet They dance a pirhoutte in my head A chance remark Becomes the spark And maybe luck has come again The hint of a smile The accidental rhyme That captured me the first time And I know You got to fight the plan You got to bend the rules Yeah I know You got be your own man You got make the rules Midnight is standing in the shadows This haunting is a reckless escape Late nights of crawling on the sidewalk Lets stay on in the mansion for the weekend Lets go on making moments last a lifetime We live on in the promises we keep The hint of a smile The accidental rhyme That captured me the first time And I know You got to fight the plan You got to bend the rules Yeah I know You got be your own man You got break the rules And I know you got to be your own man you got to make your own rules Go on making moments last a lifetime We live on in the company we keep Lets go on |

from Crowded House - Intriguer (2010)
It's a Saturday sun
And the game is still on And the waiting is done It's all about you As it calls out your name On a hill far away He's looking down from above It's all about to change He's insane, calling on the day 'Til the clouds get blown away Where inside his mind Lie all of space and time And the farthest worlds unite It's a Saturday sun And the madness is won And the night has been sung Out of existence And my head is alright Was the darkest of nights And the cadmium sun Calling on the day Till the clouds get blown away There's a night inside his mind Lie all of space and time He's been waiting for a sign Looking for the revelation, maybe Or visions of the underworld But when you saw the first light Then you know it's alright It's a Saturday sun And the madness is won And the nightmare is done And in time he waits Colors up the sky Make the darkness come to life Memories inside his heart Of everything he wants to know Of every place he has to go Yeah |
