Saint Etienne

You know the hurt's
so deep
that I can't sleep or eat,
and what I'm hoping for
is to feel your kisses sweet.
If we could just talk
things might be a little more clear.
I really need the chance
to explain the way I feel.

I can't sleep (can't sleep),
thinking of you constantly,
I can't sleep (can't sleep),
wishing you were here with me.
I can't sleep (can't sleep
where are you please(?))

When I get home from work,
sit down and watch TV,
The night falls
just like a bad dream.

I can't sleep (can't sleep),
thinking of you constantly,
I can't sleep (can't sleep),
wishing you were here with me.
I can't sleep (can't sleep
where are you please(?))

I can't sleep (can't sleep),
thinking of you constantly,
I can't sleep (can't sleep),
wishing you were here with me.
I can't sleep (can't sleep
where are you please(?))

Oh babe, I know you've gone.
I won't be sad alone
'cause the song that you left me
has the sweetest refrain.


La, lalala
lala lala.
Lala lala, lala lala,
lala lala.

You only call? Well, let's go visit Mr. More. Your eight hundred, and I'll raise twenty-five hundred bucks.
I can't stand it
South. I'm going south.
South Street Seaport, the man says. Can't stand the heat, you can't stand it.
You wanna play cards? The bet is two and a half thou.
The bet? I'll tell you what the bet is. And I'll raise you six thousand dollars.
You son of a bitch, you've been steamrolling over me all night! What are you trying to tell me? One card, you've got a flush, a full, what? I think you're bluffing, pal. I think you're trying to buy it.
Then you're going to have to give me some respect, or give me some money.
I think you're bluffing.
What are you, Joe Capp? I didn't ask what you think. Raise, call, or fold.
I should raise your ass. But I'm just gonna call.
My marker's good for the money.
What is this marker? Where are you from?
Where am I from? I'm from the United States Of Kiss My Ass!

Sorry about the question marks everywhere!

I'll run to you now
from somewhere you won't find me.
A different place,
a different time.
Together that summer
we raised some hell, yeah
but I couldn't forget
you're a kiss and tell.

If I hadn't left you
suppose we'd still be lovers,
there'd still be the fights
and I'd ladder my tights.

Without beforehand thinking,
sometimes I say things.
I could never hate you.

I do not mean one

Let's kiss and make up,

She's like the swallow
that flies so high.
She's like the river
that never runs dry.
She's like the sunshine on the lea-shore,
I love my love, and love is no more.

It's out of roses
she made her bed.
A stolen pillow
for her head.
She's like the sunshine on the lea-shore,
I love my love, and love is no more.

Took a tube to Camden Town,
Walked down Park Way, and settled down
in the shade of a willow tree,
someone hovering over me

Close my eyes,
breathe out slowly.
Today the sunshine (sunshine) loves me only

To the sound of the World of Twist
you leant over, and gave me a kiss.
It's too warm to even hold hands,
but that won't stop us from making plans.

Close our eyes,
breathe out slowly.
Today London (London) loves us only.

Do you ever wonder where we've been?
Do you ever wonder where we're going?
Just close your eyes.
Just close your eyes.
Just close your eyes (close your eyes),
and breathe out slowly (breath out slowly).
Tonight the world (the world) loves you only.

Just close your eyes.
Just close your eyes.
Just close your eyes.
Just close your eyes.

Thank you every - come on,
give her a proper Liverpool hand you can do better than that!
And now, ladies and gentlemen what you've been waiting for.

(sung)
I've come a long way
(spoken)
I've come a long long way since the day you walked into my life
(sung)
You walked into my life
(spoken)
You smoothed out all of the rough edges with your sweet
love and devotion
(sung)
I was tired, in love like a fool
(spoken)
I was tired of living the life of a fool I was wondering
where I'd gone wrong
(sung)
But I know it's gonna work out fine
(spoken)
But I know it's gonna work out fine when I see that
look in your eyes

CHORUS
yeah
I've never felt so good
I've never felt so strong
Nothing can stop us now
No, no, no, no

(sung)
I've heard some people say
(spoken)
Yeah nothing can stop us now I've heard people
say that a man who needs a woman is weak
(sung) So wrong oh they're so wrong
(spoken)
But they'te so wrong because nobody can hide from love
(sung)
Ooh do you want to know
(spoken)
Do you want to know, do you want to know something else that's true?
(sung)
It's true it's true just the touch of your hand, wo-oh
(spoken)
Just the touch of your hand and I know we can make it

CHORUS

I've never felt so strong
I've never felt so good
Nothing can stop us now.

Nothing, nothing etc.

When you were young and on your own,
how did it feel to be alone?
I was always thinking,
games that I was playing,
trying to make the best of my time.

But only love can break your heart;
try to be sure right from the start.
Yes, only love
can break your heart,
but if your world should fall apart...

I have a friend I’ve nev- -er seen
He hides his head inside a dream
Someone should call him
and see if he can come out,
Try to lose the gang that he’s found.

But only love can break your heart;
try to be sure right from the start.
Yes, only love can break your heart,
but if your world should fall apart...

I was always thinking,
I was always thinking.
I was always thinking,
I was always thinking.
I was always thinking,
I was always thinking.
I was always thinking.
...

I was always thinking,
games that I was playing.
I was always thinking,
games that I was playing.
I was always thinking,
I was always thinking.
I was always thinking,
I was always thinking.
I - I - I - I -
I was always thinking,
games that I was playing.
I was always thinking,
games that I was playing.
I was always thinking,
games that I was playing.
I was always thinking,
games that I was playing.

Get on the floor and look real sexy!

Saw you,
and when I saw you
I thought

She,
she's the one.
She,
she's the one.
She's the girl who thinks nothing of
breaking up two people in love.

In this world of ups and downs, [x8]

She,
she's the one.
She,
she's the one.
Saw her again last night,
I saw her with another guy.

In this world of ups and downs, [x8]

She,
she's the one.
She,
she's the one.
In this world of ups and downs,
she's the one.

In this world of ups and downs, [x8]

He kissed me,
he kissed me.
He hit me,
and it felt like a kiss

In this world of ups and downs, [x5, to fade-out]

Dry your eyes boy,
there's no need to despair.
Forget about yesterday and the bad times that you've had.
You've loved and lost, and now you're feeling so blue,
but can't you see it's me who really loves you?

With the love I've got you'll forget about her,
and find it easy
to live without her.

It's
only springtime,
oh, you're too young to say you're through with love.
It's
only springtime,
and I'll be different boy,
I'll promise you
(I'll swear to you.)

Once more you tell me
about her new friend;
you say your heart's
been broken again.
How many times
have you looked into my eyes?
Don't you realise we're two of a kind?

With the love I've got you'll forget about her,
and find it easy
to live without her.

It's
only springtime,
oh, you're too young to say you're through with love.
It's
only springtime,
and I'll be different,
I'll be different, I swear to you.

I've been watching
all you're love affairs;
three years now -
don't you think I care?
How many times
have you looked into my eyes?
Don't you realise we're two of a kind?

It's
only springtime,
you're too
young to say you're through with love.
It's
only springtime,
and I'll be different,
I'll be different, boy,
yeah.
It's
only springtime,
you're too young to say you're through with love,
through with love.
It's
only springtime,
I'll promise you,
I'll swear you,
oh, I'll promise you. -acap

[sarah:] spent the summer holed up in a room.
[tim:] looking pretty, won't you be here soon?
[sarah:] eurodisney, could not work at all
[both:] a little bird had told me in the fall.
Getting groovy after hallowe'en,
Mid-november, got back on the scene.
I'm so glad that i just got my pay!
I was born on christmas day.


[tim:] in december, my heart's full of spring.
[sarah:] i could phone you, tell you everything,
[tim:] like the crazy evenings on the yacht;
[both:] tim and sarah went and tied the knot!
Did you know they pulled the town hall down?
I don't think you'll recognise this town.
Never could have been a tennis wife,
Get into the acting life.

He's gone, he's gone.


She wears sad jeans torn at the waistband.
Her pretty face is stained with tears.
And in her right hand she clasps a letter;
I know this means that he has gone.


And in this town of mis-guided tourists,
she never thought she'd fall in love.
It was a few days after her birthday,
The thrill hostess gave her first kiss.


He said her skin smelled just like petals,
said stupid things he knew she'd like.
She said her life was like a motorway:
Dull, grey, and long 'til he came along.


He's gone, he's gone.


I said ";How could he ever leave you?
You two were good, you were so right.";
She said ";I wish that he just left me;
He'd be alive, alive tonight.";


He's gone, he's gone.
He's gone, he's gone.
He's gone, he's gone.

He's gone, he's gone.

I'll meet you past the great divide, yeah,
setting sail 'cross darkened dawn.
Everybody wants something,
and I want it all.


Stars are calling, goodnight, darling.
Don't say good-bye.
Stars are calling, take the slow train.
Don't say good-bye.


Marble lions at the gates of Eden
screaming songs to lull the rage.
Let's raise a flag that has no colours,
release the sun into the empty cathedral,
yeah.


Stars are calling, goodnight, darling.
Don't say good-bye.

Floating higher, floating, floating, floating...

Lalala lalalala, lalalala lalalalala,
lalala lalalala, lalalala lalalalala.


All of his friends have been wondering
why he spent so long with her;
he's so dark and moody,
she is his sunshine girl.


Lalala lalalala, lalalala lalalalala,
lalala lalalala, lalalala lalalalala.


In the bed where they make love
she's in a film on the sheets.
He shows dreams like a movie,
she's the softness of cinema seats.


Lalala lalalala, lalalala lalalalala,
lalala lalalala, lalalala lalalalala.


He sees all of the girls
like Demi Moore as she sighs.
Dreams come true as he holds her,
`til the X's come up in her eyes.


Lalala lalalala, lalalala lalalalala,
lalala lalalala, lalalala lalalalala.


Like roses grow in a churchyard,
her skin as white as the milk,
Just like a Sherpa Tensing
under a Manilla silk.


Lalala lalalala, lalalala lalalalala,
lalala lalalala, lalalala lalalalala.
Lalala lalalala, lalalala lalalalala,
lalala lalalala, lalalala lalalalala.
Lalala lalalala, lalalala lalalalala...

[These are the original lyrics - the Et's cover of the song
features some changes and a brand new chorus...
I have all the info I need, will update this following the u
nmothballing of thr site...]
So here am I quite by chance near the phone
I could call and make you crawl into bed
Questions always questions
I'll just speak in slow motion
About obsessions with boys on the floor

Take that smile off your face
Wipe that tear from your eye
Don't say you're sorry for me

Now look at me like a stormtrooper in drag
And i'll let you feel exactly like I do
It's so disgusting I'm so tired of rhythm
And needles in arms
I don't want your point of view

Nothing to do
Nothing to do steal
And there's nothing to say

Love it
Love it
I need to

I knew when you
Came around here to see me
You'd stay here till the morning
Can't stop myself from falling
In love with you
You know we'll never be the same

Been so long
It's been so long
I'm tired of being alone
There's a way to go
Honey I know now I'm calling you on the phone

Pretending nothing has changed here
But strangely familiar tracks are falling
You came without a warning
I'm glad you're here
To take these lonely tears away

Been so long
It's been so long
I'm tired of being alone
There's a way to go
Honey I know now I'm calling you on the phone
On the phone

Been so long
It's been so long
I'm tired of being alone
There's a way to go
Honey I know now I'm calling you on the phone
On the phone
On the phone

One night in never land
Checking out the Amsterdam scene
Got a room from some old guy
Outside the rocking machine

Don't know who you are
But you can't come in
Turn the TV down
Kick the TV in

All pictures scattered round
All soaked in alcohol
Next thing the lights go out
I heard a bang on the wall

Don't know who you are
But you can't come in
Turn the TV down
Kick the TV in

Turn the TV down
Kick the TV in

Hair in curls
Not quite as tall as the other girls
I'd ran away from the laughter upstairs
Wear high heels and I cut my hair
Try to conceal so tired of their small town games
Whistle a tune of a horse with no name
Hang around by the stadium
Drinking a wine like a bowery bum

Erica let's go out tonight
Staying out till the morning light
Erica let's go out tonight
Everything's gonna be alright

Diamond Joe
He took my watch and my stereo
I wished I hadn't got a permanent wave
Can't show my face at the town arcade
Can't stand that place anyway

Tired of their small town games
Whistle a tune of I gotta see Jane yeah
Read the stars of an Aries girl
Wear the crown in another world

We hadn't had our tea for long
When you said there's something wrong
Can I take this once again
You know I'd like to be a friend

Behind the wheel of my Capri
It seems it like no-ones noticed me
And now you're coming out from work
And deep inside I feel so hurt

I saw the people crowding round
You didn't move or make a sound
Sky so overcast and grey
And something happened here today

She's got to run
Run away from home
You know she's gotta run
Run away from home
She's got to run
You know she's gotta run
Run away from home

She walked out on you last Saturday
Under the wheels
Of a crowd on main street USA
Know how it feels

She said cancel everything
And like a fool
You never see what's happening
She dropped out school

Get away let her go
Let her go now
Hey in your brain
Yeah you know
Let her go now

I should have told you
To lose that girl
I should have told you
That's not your world

On her radio she turned the disco down
Disco down

She thought she looked good in purple jeans
From Santa Fe
And she overdosed on magazines

Just fade to grey

Checked-in at the airport half an hour late
Jackie caused a scene when we reached the gate
Sorry Mr. Pilot but you'll have to wait
Cause Paul's still in the duty free

When I'm far from home
You call me on the phone
Tell me everything that's happening in England
When I'm feeling blue
You call me something new
Another stupid name that makes me smile
And in a while

Ooh another coffee yeah
Ooh can you sense it in the air
Feels so good
Like someone really cares

Built my world around certain things you say
I think of nothing else at the close of day
Except for maybe how I ended up this way
Another drink before you go

MTV is on another dreary song
20 after 2 and I'm at a loss
Cause the hotel bar is closed
I walk across the road
Sound of Radio Boston makes me smile
And in a while

On a fog bound morning
With my frozen tiger feet
All done so I clocked off early
Walked down our street

Oh no oh no
Do I really deserve this
Silhouette at the window
It's so hard to believe this
Silhouette at the window
I was only lonely
Only thinking of you

I suspected nothing
Put all my trust in you
Now my pride is in a thousand pieces
World slides from view

Oh no oh no
Do I really deserve this
Silhouette at the window
It's so hard to believe this
Silhouette at the window
I was only lonely
Only thinking of you

Today I got up easy
You know I'm not a morning person
Never said I was leaving
I wasn't sure until this morning

Split screen our apartment
Where you still lie there sleeping
Keep feeling old cafes
He's the one who needs you baby

Will you really miss me
Will you really think about me
Yeah I'd like to think so
But as they say I'm always dreaming

Goodbye to the tower blocks
Last look at the town I'm leaving
Tall buildings and offices
And this all full of memories baby

Now I really don't care
Cause I'm dying to get the sun in my hair
Yeah I really don't care
That I'm here and you're still there
Yeah I really don't care
Cause I'm going to breathe the country air
Yeah I really don't care
But it's OK

I've been driving for ages
Your tapes are starting to bore me
Well I think I should stop now
I'm not sure if I should call you

Split screen our apartment
Where you have seen my letters
Well I know its not Venus
But the scenery's getting better baby

Seventeen, high-school queen, Yeah you're pretty cute, I can see.
Well you've come a long way since September, But, Sylvie, you oughtta
remember, You know he's mine. You know he's mine. You know he's mine.
Sylvie, girl, I'm a very patient person, But I'll have to shut you
down, If you don't give up your flirting. Leave him alone, 'cos I
know he loves me. Leave him alone, 'cos he tells me he loves me. Over
and over and over and over again. Over and over and over and over
again. Seventeen, high-school queen, Yeah you're pretty cute, I can
see. Well you've come a long way since September, But, Sylvie, you
oughtta remember, You know he's mine. You know he's mine. You know
he's mine. Sylvie, girl, although you're my little sister, Well
you're not without your charms, I'm not sure that he'll resist you.
Give it all up, for we see you crying. Give it all up, 'cos I know
you've been trying. Over and over and over and over again. Over and
over and over and over again. Over and over and over and over again.
(repeat to fade, with backing vocals of 'Oh, Sylvie girl, oh Sylvie
girl.'

Last Thursday
5 30
A shoot in Ladbroke Grove
Hours later
Hey waiter
Could you pour some more of those

All for you
And when I'm all alone
I'm by the microphone
I see your photograph
Don't even want to laugh

Some secret
Must keep it
Hey I wouldn't know who to tell
Next morning
Fair warning
Ooh you have you got something to sell

Wide awake
The cold cold light of day
Realise my taste
My taste just slips away
I say my taste just slips away

Days later
Saw the paper
How did I fall for you
All for you...

A redwood tree The radio They moved them down the hall

A beauty Queen from Idaho Was broken in the fall

Never write a love song
Never write a trip hop
Never write a ballad Got to get a grip now
Cause nothing ever matters If you hide away from it all

In twenty years this place will be Just like LA today

Never write a love song
Never write a trip hop Never write a ballad
Got to get a grip now
Cause nothing ever matters If you hide away from it all

Never write a love song...

Part 2: Aspects of Lambert

boy is it coming to me
lotta bodies i don't know
hoped i could get some sleepin'
hope that they will go

that boy is crying
forget about the lying
he's not singing
cause his ears are ringing

i've gotta hit the sheets again
gotta catch an hour before i go
down to the streets beneath me
out into the crowd below
take me to the outer reaches
rock me to and fro

this boy is crying
fed up with the lying
i'm not singing
cause my eyes are stinging

get me on a roll again
look me in the eye and flash your smile
flash your smile

just as i walked away
i turned to hear you say
the words nearly got carried away by the wind
but i could make out this much:
don't back down
don't back down this time
brown eyes inside i cry
don't back down
don't back down this time
sometimes i wonder why

knocked down in Fortis Green your mother hated me
caught in a car outside the Odeon
and rain pouring down the windscreen
don't back down
don't back down this time
brown eyes inside i cry
don't back down
don't back down this time
sometimes i wonder why

that summer felt so long
i never felt so strong
and then a sudden feeling that i might never see you again
don't back down
don't back down this time
brown eyes inside i cry
don't back down
don't back down this time
sometimes i wonder why

don't back down
don't back down this time

dream home
in downey, california
palm trees
the sound of karen carpenter
mother's holding baby
baby's getting restless now
looking for her mother
looking for her mother

you don't, don't want to believe him now
don't want to
don't want to see him

eyes closed
asleep in a crystal hideaway
i stand
they used to take the head away
if she could tell the story
frozen on her lips today
she could tell her daughter
she could tell her daughter

you want, want to believe him now
you'll never
you'll never feel

la-la-la-la-la-la

you want, you want to believe him now
you'll never see

Took a trip down Anita Way
Had to go on the 1st of May
Didn't have much to celebrate
Heart failed in the back of a taxi
Heart failed in the back of a taxi
doot do do
doot do do

Get yer kicks all around the world
Give a tip to a geisha girl
Fit your bit with a piece of pearl
Heart failed in the back of a taxi
Heart failed in the back of a taxi
doot do do
doot do do

Sold the ground to a PLC
Moved the club out to Newbury
Sod the fans and their families
Heart failed in the back of a taxi
Heart failed in the back of a taxi

Picture-house built in '23
It's a place out of history
Pulled it down for your cash money
Heart failed in the back of a taxi
Heart failed in the back of a taxi
doot do do
doot do do

A rose scented June
A rose he pulled in June
They're full upon the lawn
The doctor came at dawn

An old daily care
And Suzie Banana Stand
Through frosted windowpane
Your father's middle name
>From a train
And everywhere the snow falls
Sail away (x4)

A veil (pale(?)) faded blue
A Ruben's old curfew(?)
One windy Winter's day
A Windsor market day
People say
Everywhere the snow falls
Sail away (x8)

She's moving down the seaside
'Cause that's where he comes from
He gave away all of her records
Is that where she belongs?

Better think it through
Remember who
Is there something new?
Or is it you again?

Sail away (x12)

So take your red gown
And go down to the dam
To do as you please
On the streets of your town

The whistling kind
Shake it out of your mind
It could be the day
When you finally say
Sail away (x6)
On and on (x7)

Sarah speaks (2 lines missing):
Up the riverbank, land that dried up
The causeway full of nice cars
The sand a distant dream
_____________ (?) ______________
_____________ (?) ______________
Across the riverbank
Cross the riverbank, don't look back

Background sings:
To sail away
And on and on

Sarah sings:
I sail, you sail
I sail, you sail
Do you remember how? (x4)
Do you remember how we used to live? (x3)

space exploration is a noble thing
it's a noble thing if we'd only try
arranging mountains is just mud and water
it's just mud and water and the passing of time
la-la-la-la-la-la-la-la

overcome
just a little
high on a hillside
with the sun in my eyes
overcome
just a little
free from the city
with the snow at my side

walked the street as it becomes a river
and the cars are shining in the morning sun
travel sideways till the (?)
and all those rocketmen days are over and done
la-la-la-la-la-la-la-la

overcome
just a little
high on a hillside
with the sun in my eyes
overcome
just a little
free from the city

It Fills Me With Unease
Out There By The Roadside Something's Buried
Under Sycamore Leaves
Wet Grounds Late September
The Foliage Of The Trees
I Came Upon This Feeling That Someone's Lying
Covered By Sycamore Leaves
And I Could Never Face It
And Take A Look And See
And I Could Never Break Out
And Shake It's Grip On Me

I found some time to stop and think it over.
And all I know is thank you

I never knew where to begin.
Or where it would end.
I never knew where to begin.
Ooooh

I want to be exactly where you're going.
The land, the sea.
Thank you

I give her my love, / she says "no, no, no, / no," /
And I give her my heart, / she says "no, no, no, / no, /
'cause your / only a friend to me, /
More like a brother to me." /

She's a pretty little girl / who says "no, no, no, / no," /
Just a little girl, / and she knows I love her so, /
If I / ask her to walk with me, /
She shakes her head at me. /

She's a pretty little doll / who says "no, no, no, / no," /
All the night-time through, / she says "no, no, no, / no." /
If I / ask her to walk with me, /
I know she'll never say "oui." /

? ? ?



She says / "you're only a friend to me, /
Only a brother to me." /

She's a pretty little girl / who says "no, no, no, / no," /
Ooh, the night-time through, / she says "no, no, no, / no." /
If I / ask her to walk with me, /
Why won't she ever say "oui? " /

No, no, no, / no. /
No, no, no, / no. /
No, no, no, / no. /
No, no, no, / no. /
No, no, no, / no. /
No, no, no, / no.

Ooh, young heart
Ooh, young heart
Ooh, young heart

Pass me the suitcase, baby
I know it's not that easy
And give me my mirror, love
First give me back my memories

And oh, oh, how many years
Is it now Maurice?

Ooh, young heart
Ooh, young heart
Ooh, young heart
And, ooh, oh the clown's no good

And I was half-asleep
And riding on a slow-coach
I think I lose all these things
Still, meaning I'm not holy

And, oh, oh, your honey-dish
Oh, it's on my list

Ooh, young heart
Ooh, young heart
Ooh, young heart
And, ooh, oh the clown's no good

Wish my heart's wish climbing out your window
For your savage amusement
You put a spell over me, well
Smells like lemon flavor

Tuesday, if I had you back again
You know I'm against the future
Wednesday, I was a little girl
I was the little girl who'd like to snog your face

And ooh, oh, how many years
Is it now Maurice?

Ooh, young heart
Ooh, young heart
Ooh, young heart
And, ooh, oh the clown's no good

And, ooh, oh the clown's no good
And, ooh, oh the clown's no good
And, ooh, oh the clown's no good
And, ooh, oh the clown's no good
And then I shall take back to Maurice
And, ooh, oh the clown's no good

Ooh, young heart
Ooh, young heart
Ooh, young heart

Pass me the suitcase, baby

And give me my mirror, love

I see you like a lantern - / you have a certain glow. / calico. /

Whenever you are present like a letter I am sealing. /
My love / like a dove / that blesses from above. /

No. [pause] unless it's me.


I heard she drove the silvery sports-car /
Along the empty streets last night. /
Hanging around / with hair-dos like mine. /
No, I haven't seen the kids for some time. /


Picked up her shoes from the red-brick stairway, /
Just like a harpsichordist she moved. /
And back upstairs / at half past two, /
With a paper folded, outside the loo. /


Rain falls / like elvis tears. /
Oh no, / no sugar tonight. /
Out on the high street, / dim all the lights and /
Cry coloured tears again. /


And baby, / (don't forget to catch me.) /
Don't forget to catch me. / (don't forget to catch me.) /

Everyone's dreaming of all they've got to live for,
joking around, still digging that sound.

Lucy writes a letter,

It's like, I can't get past that S&M barrier. 'Cause, I like, as I'm drinking something like whiskey or lager, it's actually painful to drink first of all.
Pour you a double?
Is that a double? You want a double ???
Cigarette?
I don't smoke, but, you know, er...
Crisps?
Four bottles of Malibu, Bob knows the address. A Malibu, a Coke and Chinese food.

I've thought of asking you / for so long, /
Afraid of what / your answer would be. /
But there's no other way, / so here I stay, /
You know, I believe in your lies / so easily. /


Ooh... / no rainbows for me. /


I'm going for myself, / (so I tell myself) /
But there's no pot of gold, / just shades of blue. /
You think my heart's a toy; / like a little boy, /
You pick it up, / and play with it, / and break it when you're through. /


Ooh... / no rainbows for me. /




Ooh... / no rainbows for me. /
Ooh... / no rainbows for me. /
Ooh... / no rainbows for me. /
Ooh... / no rainbows for me. /


Stop hurting me, baby, / I may lose my mind. /
Stop hurting me, baby, / or I'll ? ? ? you. /
I'll ? ? ? / no rainbows for me...


[outro sample:]
Yes, well, that last one didn't sound too furious!

Oh, hello Mark. Please come in, you'll meet the others who live here, and....
Sorry, but... work.

Who am I?
I'm just a girl
who only wants to try
to do what's right;
I'll never make you cry,
but you're no good for me, and

who do you think you are?
You tried to push me a bit too far,
and every day sees another scar.
Oh tell me, who do you think you are?
If you want me there,
you gotta care!
Oh tell me,

who do you think you are (who)
taking advantage of me this way?
Tell me, who do you think you are (who),
hurting me more with the things you say?
It's not fair,
you don't care.
Who do you really think that you are? (who)

Where are we?
(oh where are we?)
We're at the cross roads and
I just can't see
(just can't see)
which way to take
to keep you here with me
(here with me).
The lights are changing, baby,

who do you think you are?
You tried to push me a bit too far,
and every day sees another scar.
Oh tell me, who do you think you are?
If you want me there,
you gotta care!
Oh tell me,

who do you think you are (who)
taking advantage of me this way?
Tell me, who do you think you are (who),
hurting me more with the things you say?

Toast is burned
And your coffee's cold
And you leave all the post 'cause it's nothing but bills again
Home from work
Put the TV on
Get your kicks watching Bruce on the old Generation Game

Just dial my number
I've got some plans for you
You're in a bad way
And I can help you through
You're in a bad way
Every day is just the same (every day)
Just dial my number
Or call my name

Jeans are old
And your hair's all wrong
Don't you know that crew cuts and trainers are out again?
Going out
You're feeling low
Running for cover, it looks like it's going to rain - what a shame!

Just dial my number
I've got some plans for you
You're in a bad way

Every day is just the same (every day)
