I don't plan or conspire I don't want to get no higher it's your lack of ambition well they tell me, that's what it's missing All the guns out on the western front are quiet now well it's nice to hear the world breath a sigh It's like the colour of your skin you know it doesn't mean a thing nor do the clothes that we're wrapped in it doesn't matter if you're thin and though I lay awake at night I know your arms will hold me tight and I thank God we got it right here in this city late at night We are each like no other we are unique to our mother we are foals in the stable but we leave home when we're able but we all need someone like the earth needs the sun and our fate will be found in this life in the ground Don't you get it wrong It's like the colour of your skin you know it doesn't mean a thing nor do the clothes that we're wrapped in It doesn't matter if you're thin and though I lay awake at night I know your arms will hold me tight and I thank God we got it right here in this city late at night.

Please, let me in cause my house is falling down
There's trouble all over the town Let me begin and I'll tell you a story how Dracula hunted me down Show me that you care And of my presence you are aware We don't need to shout Or make a fuss, we are devout CHORUS Well, I'd like to make a call to my kid a (hoo, hoo) And I'd show him all the things that I did (hoo, hoo) Well, I'd show him all the things that I did Show him all the things that I did Some people always come late Others arrive in a dreadful state I didn't get there at all The gun's in the holster and it's too small Who's that outside my door? The house is falling in, it's world war again Who's that outside my door? Who's that outside my door? CHORUS Well, I'd like to make a call to my kid a (hoo, hoo) (Hoo, hoo) (Hoo, hoo) (Hoo, hoo) (Hoo, hoo) (Hoo, hoo) (Hoo, hoo) |

Fate just took a wrong turn,
It would appear that we don't agree, And without warning sign I stopped just in time, When you ran straight in front of me. Well I don't listen to the rumours, And I don't care who you have for tea, I think you'll find that the thief commits the crime, At the end of the book you'll see. You tore me right down, You've got a hold on me, I can't believe it's true, But I believe in me. It's been so long, It's been so long. Don't ever talk to strangers, You never know what they're gonna say, And it may be a surprise right in front of your eyes, They get up, and they walk away. So the next time you see me listen, Cos I've got something I want to say, You've got the wrong attitude and you act like a fool, And you will pass by within a day. You tore me right down, You've got a hold on me, I can't believe it's true, But I believe in me. You tore me right down, You've got a hold on me, I can't believe it's true, It's just the end of time. You tore me right down, You've got a hold on me, I can't believe it's true, But I believe in me. You tore me right down, You've got a hold on me, I can't believe it's true, But I believe in me. It's been so long, It's been so long. It's been so long, It's been so long. It's been so long. |

Sometimes we find ourselves looking for something new we stand outside ourselves not knowing quite what we should do I am in debt to you I owe respect to you but you've got to learn it's gonna turn, into neglect for you and though you caught me naked I didn't enjoy it in fact I regret it let's make it happen why can't you understand I am a fraction a part of a broken man I hope you understand it's part of my action plan to bury you in the sand the tide's gonna turn when will you learn to stop hiding inside yourself I bet you wish you were someone else tell me when will you learn the day's getting longer and you're getting common sense so get right down off that fence ain't it time that you turned and though you got me thinking you could be faking your ego's inflated and I'm sick of waiting let's make it happen why can't you understand I am a fraction I am a broken man let's make it happen why can't you understand I am a fraction part of a broken man my soul is in rapture if only we could both hold on let's cause a reaction just like you know we should.
