Hey little girl I'm in a whirl I've been a bad, bad boy I'm on my knees Forgive me please I've been a bad, bad boy I'm not the man you think I am I've given you warning You wake up and find me gone Some sunny morning
Thinks that I've said Run through my head I've been a bad, bad boy My past is black I'm coming back I've been a bad, bad boy In my time I've done a lot of things I better not remember But you'll see such a change in me I'm making you forget your resolution To run it out from this confusion You got to face it I'm a loser I'm just a clown when I'm down
And while you sleep I softly weep I've been a bad, bad boy Here comes the night We'll be allright I've been a bad, bad boy hold my hand I'll take you where the sun and moon are always shining One fine day you're gonna turn to me and see a silver lightning Yeah I've been a bad, bad boy I've been a bad, bad boy
The sun is shining We should be making hay But we're dead from the waist down Like in California
Victory is emrty There are lessons in defeat But we're dead from the waist down We are sleeping on our feet
We stole the songs from birds in trees Bought us time on easy street Now our paths, they never meet We chose to court and flatter greed, ego disposability I caught a glimpse, and it's not me
Make hay not war Make hay not war Make hay not war Or else we're done for And we're d from the w down
There's no contracts binding No bad scene beyond repair But when you're dead from the waist down You're too far gone to even care
We stole the songs from birds in trees Bought us time on easy street Now our paths, they never meet We chose to court and flatter greed, ego disposability I caught a glimpse, and it's not me
Make hay not war Make hay not war Make hay not war Or else we're done for And we're d from the w down
He came on ecclesiastically His sermon loud and bold And I got hold of spiritual healing His eloquence, magnificent I didn't stand for long And there I learnt how prayer can be misguiding
But I'm a good girl Oh I'm a good girl I'm a good girl
They recommended counselling But I don't need to talk I don't get off on communal changing I'm better bred, much better led Leave my keys at home But brace yourselves for industrial cleavage
Cos I'm a good girl Oh I'm a good girl I'm good girl
If you live a lie you'll die a liar If you live a lie you'll die a liar Pants on fire
Joan of Arc, come kiss my art Leave a charcoal mark There's so much more to solitary refinement
Cos I'm a good girl Oh I'm a good girl I'm a good girl
Tedium is overcome From obscurity, through melody And when I'm blind it helps me See through your key
No one can touch, no need to rush Presented by my alibi When I'm down it brings me round So easily
I'll be a karaoke queen, it's not me you see I'm gonna take you down to a place I know you'd rather be It's just a three minute song It doesn't last very long But it'll take you to a place I know you'd rather be
Hey you can dance Oooh sha la la la la la la
Common sense has excuses Recklessness, its uses But don't go fusing silence with charisma
At nine o'clock you can count on me And when I'm up I'm ready Tonight I'm gonna be
I'll be a karaoke queen, it's not me you see I'm gonna take you down to a place I know you'd rather be It's just a three minute song It doesn't last very long But it'll take you to a place I know you'd rather be
Where you can dance
I'm doomed to fail The stage gives way It's an apostrophe to my legacy But though I'm bruised I'll happily do it all again
At 10 o'clock don't wait up for me Coz when I'm up I'm ready Tonight I'm gonna be Matthew!
I'll be a karaoke queen, it's not me you see I'm gonna take you down to a place I know you'd rather be It's just a three minute song It doesn't last very long But it'll take you to a place I know you'd rather be
And you an dance if you want to Show appreciation But step up to the mic for the full sensation
And you can dance And you can dance And you can dance And you can ooh la la la ooh sha la la la
I thought we'd escape I packed a fishing line and counted on it I thought we'd escape I packed a fishing line and counted on it
But dreaming is for moonrise And moonlight ails these tired eyes
I treat him like a lady I treat him as I would he unto me Give Rose rose-seller a run for her money With silicone and poetry But it's the end of me
I thought it could change I'd wake up one morning and find nothing to rearrange I couldn't get there Behind his wall of Sunday papers I thought it could change I'd wake up one morning and find nothing to rearrange
But dreaming is for moonrise And moonlight ails these tired eyes
I treat him like a lady I treat him as I would he unto me Give Rose rose-seller a run for her money With silicone and poetry And it's the end of me
Here I am Here I am And here I stand Here in my kitchen where I'm familiar with every brand Here I am A front line with labels where I witness custards last stand Here I am
Never meant you no harm Never meant you no harm, yeh yeh Never spun you no yarn Never spun you no yarn, yeh yeh
And she'll go yeh, where he goes, yeh We all go where nobody knows our name
If I step out of line I'll step out of line, yeh yeh Over land over sea One step two to Ynys free
And she'll go yeh, where he goes, yeh We all go where nobody knows our name
And don't cry if crying means you're sorry Whatever the case I always felt out of place As a matter of fact I always felt like that around you I'm disinclined to toe the line Under your thumb where I've become unwanted
So pick your way down to the sea Pick your way to the sea, yeh yeh It's not the tide you gotta watch it's me Not the tide you got it's me, yeh yeh
And she'll go yeh, where he goes, yeh We all go where nobody knows our name
And she'll go yeh, where he goes, yeh We all go where nobody knows our name
Somebody told me you?d found new bonhomie Going places you?d never go with me I felt myself become a bitter old shrew Oh, I?d have bitten you in two if you would let me
I?d look deadly as a nun Martyrdom does not become me I?ll find love in vanity Somebody told me you?d found places to go New people to know, new ladies and so I felt myself become a bitter old shrew I?d have bitten her in two if you would let me
So if I don?t laugh what do I do? If I don?t laugh and see this through I shouldn?t even think of you Allow me one extravagance Before they come and ban me And let me shoot the messenger
So help me God they talk so much This knowledge ain?t my business But I hang on his every word God speed his journey back to Hell I might retreat singing But all I hear is you Just give me one more shot of gin I?ll scream along to anything Just let me shoot the messenger
Everything is beautiful And nothing hurts you at all Everything is beautiful And nothing hurts you in the world, in your world
Words plain with lullaby refrain So sweet sleep Enjoy the time you keep
All around is wonderful And nothing harms me at all All around is wonderful And nothing harms me at all, in my world
Words plain with lullaby refrain So sweet sleep Enjoy the time you keep And if you call, I'll follow after all So sweet calm will keep us safe from harm
I've got my work cut out with you You tore bits out of me Your carpet burns and bruises blue Are there for all to see
But I can tell you've been through hell Finally you wear it well It's an accessory It's time to change your uniform And hand it on to me, to me
And I dream one day I'll find The one who lives inside my mind They feel the same way too We've all been used Dazed, beautiful, and bruised Dazed, beautiful, and bruised
And blame is not a one way street The widest avenue But cause me grief And my belief is harm will come to you
Between the lines I think you'll find Lessons learned from alleys blind Beauty can turn sour So recognise through all the lies The hero of the hour, the hour
And I dream one day I'll find The one who lives inside my mind They feel the same way too We've all been used Dazed, beautiful, and bruised
When there's nothing, nothing left to lose Dazed, beautiful, and bruised
I'd rather be liberated, I find myself captivated Stop doing what you keep doing it too I'd rather stay bold and lonely, I dream I'm your one and only Stop doing what you keep doing it too
Things are getting strange, I'm starting to worry This could be a case for Mulder and Scully Things are getting strange, now I can't sleep alone
I'd rather be jumping ship, I find myself jumping straight in Stop doing what you keep doing it too... Forever be dozy and dim, I wake myself thinking of him Stop doing what you keep doing it too...
Things are getting strange, I'm starting to worry This could be a case for Mulder and Scully Things are getting strange, now I can't sleep alone
Here my bed is made for two and there's nothing I can do So tell me something I don't know. If my head is full you, is there nothing I can do? Must we all march in two by two by two?
And as for some happy ending. I'd rather stay single and thin
Stop doing what you Keep doing to me...
Things are getting strange, I'm starting to worry This could be a case for Mulder and Scully Things are getting strange, now I can't sleep alone... here
Things are getting strange, I'm starting to worry This could be a case for Mulder and Scully Things are getting strange, now I can't sleep alone
So what have you got to say to that? And what does someone do without love? And what does someone do with love? And what have you got to say about that

If all you've got to do today is find your peace of mind Come round You can take a piece of mine If all you've got to do today is hesitate Come here, you can leave it late with me
You could be taking it easy on yourself You should be making it easy on yourself
Cos you know, its all over the front page You give me road rage Racing through the best days
And it's you boy driving me crazy Thinking you may be losing your mind
If all you've got to prove today is your innocence. Calm down, you're as guilty as can be If all you've got to lose alludes to yesterday. Yesterday's through. Now do anything you please
Repeat chorus
Space age, road rage, fast lane, minimum wage Home late, upgrade, short-changed, golden age Front page, lose face, handmade, space ache Backstage, outraged, disgraced, maximum weight
I'm sorry you couldn't make it You could have seen him, so weathered and dated He was a johnny come lately And i know that you would hate him If you'd seen his botanical leanings First prize exhibit and all down to good spirit He was a johnny come lately And i know that you would hate me If i envied the things that he spoke of How i envied the things that he thought of He was a johnny come lately And i know that you would hate me If i told you that i made some time and stayed behind To find out how to make a garden grow Where the sun no longer shines If i asked too many questions and i stayed behind To find out how to make a garden grow But he never ever gave away the secret of this godforsaken soil He didn't need us, just tempted and teased us You could have been here, wishing you were here This was a johnny come lately And i know that you would hate me He was a johnny come lately And i know that you would hate me If i told you that i made some time and stayed behind To find out how to make a garden grow Where the sun no longer shines He assured me that the seeds you sold were sound But i must have cast them all on stony ground And now the sun won't shine I must have asked too many questions d And stayed behind to find out how to make a garden grow But he never ever gave away the secret of this godforsaken soil.
A dead loss, No fun, just glum Lying next to someone So don't mention the war Don't question where we stand Or where we fall North, south, east where's best? If i head left It turns out directionless
And needle point aside I always find Embroidery leaves me blind Cos i'm too weary to rest Since i noticed Coming second best is close to ideal
What fools boredom breeds So much to do So many goldfish to feed And paracetamol I take them all They line my stomach wall
With customary thirst I search a water glass But gin hits first Oh don't believe the hype Expectancy will always spoil a party
It's tourniquet by crochet My waters break Don't drive for pity's sake Cos i'm too weary to rest Since i noticed Coming second best Is close to ideal
