Tin Star

She was American
She played a mean hand
She had blond hair, blue eyes
She was a master of disguise
She said "I love you guys"
She said "I like your french fries"
She's a disease and she does as she pleases

Boy meets girl
Girl gets boy
Boy loses girl
Ship ahoy

She was American
She had a master plan
Because lots of people wanna look a little bit like her
Said "I don't believe in Psychiatry
If you need a doctor then come up and see me"

Boy meets girl
Girl gets boy
Boy loses girl
Ship ahoy

Bah bah bahhhhhhhh yeah!
Bah bah bahhhhhhhh yeah!
Bah bah bahhhhhhhh yeah!
Bah bah bahhhhhhhh yeah yeah yeah!

Boy buys gun
Girl buys toy
Boy meets man
Ship ahoy

Boy gets girl!
Girl gets boy!
Boy loses girl!
OH!
Ship ahoy!

Boy buys gun!

Can anybody hear the beat of the heart of the Angel Of The North
Someone climb her hips and steal a kiss from those iron lips
She'll never let me down

Iron kiss, I want to take a trip into the Angel Of The North
Someone told me yesterday that I'd find my love on the motorway
She'll never let me down

She loves anybody
Everybody, anybody
Her love is for free
And she loves anybody
Anybody, everybody
Angel is free

Can anybody hear the beat of the heart of the Angel Of The North
At night she flies, caress my dreams
With her iron lips and her steel black eyes
She'll never let me down

She loves anybody
Everybody, anybody
Her love is for free
And she loves anybody
Anybody, everybody
Angel is free

She'll never let me down
Both feet are firmly on the ground

She loves anybody
Everybody, anybody
Her love is for free
And she loves anybody
Anybody, everybody
Angel is free

Give me your light
Give me the sunshine from your sky
Give me your light
Give me your light

Sunshine
I have all the sunshine from your sky
Girl child
I have all the moonlight from your eyes
Long dark night

Women of the world
Pushed me to see
Many made a fool of me
Found my place with you
You're walking me through
Long dark night

Give me your light
Give me the sunshine from your sky
Give me your light
Give me your light

Sunshine
I'll breathe all the sunshine from your sky
Moonshine
I'll drink all the moonshine from your eyes

Women of the world
Pushed me to see
Many made a fool of me
Found my place with you
You're walking me through
Long dark night

Give me your light
Give me the sunshine from your sky
Give me your light
Give me your light

Found my place with you
You're walking me through
Long dark night

Give me your light
Give me the sunshine from your sky

Sometimes I wake up in the morning my feet my soul my arms my legs my eggs are all fried
I've got to do my exams today I've read my books turned up on time but I haven't revised

I'm not getting along
I'm not getting the answers
I'm not getting along
I'm not getting along
I'm not getting the answers
'Cos I can't get out of my head

In the night sometimes I wake up uncool uptight I'm tired of being tired but in my dreams my arms are open wide
I open up my eyes open up my eyes but everything is dark I think I'm blind

I'm not getting along
I'm not getting the answers
I'm not getting along
(Too dumb to use the phone)
I'm not getting along
I'm not getting the answers
'Cause I can't get out of my head

No, I can't get out of my head
No, I can't get out of my head

This profession is my obsession
And this obsession is my depression
And this depression is my release
And this release will never cease

No, I can't get out of my head
No, I can't get out of my head

I get my head, heh, uh, hey!
(Can't get out of my head)
Yeah, sometimes uncool, uptight
In my dreams my arms, myself is open wide
(Can't get out of my head)
(Can't get out of my head)

I'm not dumb use the phone

Going to take you out scratch brother
Bury your son before you bury your mother
Before the thrill kisser takes another
Lay down and await for your destruction
When they tell you everything's going to be alright
Don't let them fool you though you want to prove them right
When you realise that you've been strung along
Lay down and await for your destruction

There was an end that knew of no beginning
Never had a hope or chance in hell of winning
Time runs like water do what you've got to do
Lay down and await for your destruction

Going to take you out scratch brother
Bury your son before you bury your mother
Avoid the thrill kisser take cover
Lay down and await for your destruction

Illuminate the bright light to infinity
Beyond the bright light
Go towards the light towards the light towards the light ....

Lay down and await for your destruction

Playing the game of the natural insane
Left gasping for air and blaming the system
Going through the motions step by step
Whittled it down, 'till there was nothing left
Playing the game of the natural insane

Looking in the mirror 'till I love myself
Left gasping for air and blaming the system
Going through the motions step by step
Whittled it down 'till there was nothing left
Playing the game of the natural insane
Took a short ride in a fast machine short ride in a fast machine

Playing the game of the natural insane
Gasping for air and blaming the system
Going through the motions step by step
Whittled it down 'till there was nothing left
Playing the game of the natural insane

Singing it slow and open
'Til nothing is left except a scar and a chest
Letting myself go 'till I took a wreck
Listening to records with the right effect
Took a short ride in a fast machine short ride short ride in a fast machine

Looking in the mirror 'till I love myself .... looking in the mirror 'till I love myself
Took a short ride in a fast machine short ride short ride in a fast machine

"Vote with your feet the President's a cheat we always sit in the cheap seats take a short ride in a fast machine all the books are banished banish all the blank papers read the papers the whole library struggling struggling"

Wonderful world when are you coming round?
Wonderful world stop spinning round
Yeah I guess I'm always going to need
Somewhere to go where I am free
Somewhere to go where I'm not found
To make no sense and hear no sound
Can't see the sky can't feel the ground
I guess I'm coming down too late

Wonderful world where are you coming round?
Wonderful world why don't you stick around?
Yeah I guess I'm always going to need
Somewhere to go where I am free
Somewhere to go where I'm not found
To make no sense and hear no sound
Can't see the sky can't feel the ground
I guess I'm coming down - too late
Leaving I'm leaving I'm leaving I'm leaving
I'm coming down too late

I guess I'm always gonna need
Somewhere to go where I am free
Somewhere to go where I'm not found
To make no sense and hear no sound
Can't see the sky can't feel the ground
I guess I'm coming down too late

So you want to be in tune with the times?
Trade your six pack for a v-sign
"Marry me tax free seeks easily pleased"
Thanks for coming (the pleasure was all mine)
Watch them beat the meat and sell it to fleet street witness extra-ordinary crimes
Draw a chalk line around yours and mine
It's a great idea but no one has the energy
Except space age boys with high tech toys
You got kiddies on your mind

I don't know
Getting nowhere
Just getting by
Going slow

Maybe he was smacked as a child
He feels so way down the food chain
To be so way down way down the food chain
Everything's an enemy when you feel like a sea anemone
Heaven above it's the lord of love
It's the European son-of-a-gun
Making a beeline for the London skyline
With great ideas but no one has the energy
Words just seem to roll off his tongue

I don't know
Getting nowhere
Just getting by
Going slow

Married the girl from the News of the World
Got nothing to say got one on the way
The face of today is the mask of tomorrow
Married the girl from the News of the World
"Mentally ill seeks baby girl sixty-a-day whaddya say?"

I don't know
Getting nowhere
Just getting by
Going slow

It's a beautiful house and I love the garden
But I just can't stay 'til my arteries harden
Out in the street the people are stranded
It didn't turn out the way they planned it

Another step closer to St. Peter
They measure each step in millimetres
They say I ought to go now
But I think I'll take a raincheck

When the orange is fully wound
I still have time to go to ground
To go get lost before I get found
I still have time

I watched television 'til I got the message
That we're quickstepping headlong into the dark age
Can't get a career can't go to college

Another step closer to St. Peter
They measure each step in millimetres
They say I ought to go now
But I think I'll take a raincheck

When the orange is fully wound
I still have time to go to ground
To go get lost before I get found
I still have time

They say I ought to go now
But I think I'll take a raincheck

When the orange is fully wound
I still have time to go to ground
To go get lost before I get found
I still have time

A year is a month
A week is a day
Living this way

Picture of a girl she's always on my mind
Every time I see her I know that she's a crime
Picture of a girl I see her all the time
Every time I see her every time I see her I know I'm wasting time

Picture of a girl she leaves me way behind
Every time I see her I'm thinking double time
It's a lonely thing it's a lonely thing it's a lonely thing such a lonely thing
All designed to leave me feeling scared

Record of a girl I play her all the time
Every time I hear her every time I hear her I go into rewind
Picture of a girl .... On my mind
It's a lonely thing it's a lonely thing it's a lonely thing such a lonely thing
All designed to leave me feeling scared
All obscene is all I've heard and every stinking dirty word is all designed to leave me feeling scared scared scared
