And it looks like one of those days
When my valentine ain't so funny yeah
Ain't so funny yeah

And it looks like one of those days
When i'm holding the same old conversation
Losing concentration

And it looks like one of those days
When i'm holding the same old conversation
And it looks like one of those days
When i'm losing all my concentration

. . .


I want to say yes to what you say
If there's a movement then i want to sway
Get a piece of the action, uh huh
And i want to see you in the crowd
And i want to point your face out very loud
Get a piece of the action, uh huh

Don't you want a piece of the action
Don't you want a piece of the action
Yeah...oh yeah...

'Sex-o-fact' it slips in vogue
Sells a star, furnishes your home
You get a piece of the action, uh huh
Viloence on the silver screen
You got the most fashionable death since James Dean
You get a piece of the action, uh huh

. . .


I'm feeling something
Could be nothing
There's something new
And I feel excited
Close to frightened
There's something new

And I just can't face the change
There's something new
When today ain't yesterday what can I do?

I feel emotion
Endless commotion
And set in sail
I feel excited
Close to frightened
That it might fail

What can I do?

. . .


She never has to stop and think
Never makes you lose a thing
She is so enchanting
I always have to stop a while
Cross my hands and close my eyes
I am so demanding

When she smiles she opens wide
Touching you inside to lie
Life can be so shaking handed
Nervously you're shaking signs
Life is better taken blind
Still you're left so disenchanted

Giving it all away
Giving it all away

You always have to stop and think
Desperately to find something
That is even handed
I never want to think a thing
That shatters almost everything
Life can leave you hanging

. . .


Isolated junkyard
Letting out the garbage
Eating through the core of life
Sweet fragrance irritates
In a stale room death awaits
Persecute your own self pride
Suffocate the new high
Ride a thorny mule that cries
Dig your grave and jump right in
Like a judas pay the price
Thirty pieces for a ride
Here's the fire now take a chew

Do yourself a favour
Educate your mind
Get yourself together
Hey/oh there ain't no time

Shredded know-how gives away
Species of the human race
Those funky winds of ups and downs
Hall of grit is known too well
Heaven is still your hell
Poison slowly slowly drowns
Let the devil step right in
Lucifer's your only friend
Ain't a soul gonna pity you
Hurdle over time to death
With open arms it waits i bet
Don't you wish you could reach ground

. . .


I see double up ahead
Where the riverboat swayed beneath the sun
Is where the river runs red
Like a King who stalks the wings and shoots a dove
And frees an eagle instead
It's more or less the same as the things that you said

I see trouble up the road
Like the things you found in love are by the way
And like to cheat on your soul
Like the best and worst of thoughts that lose control
Before you lie on your bed

It's more or less the same as the things that you said
Anyway for all the things you know tell me why does the river not flow
Anyway for all the things you said tell me why does the river run red
Anyway for all the things you've seen tell me when will the river run green
And anyway for all the things you know tell me why does the river not flow

It's more or less the things you fail to say in your way that's your trouble
Like a King who stalks the wings and shoots the moon and the stars
And his double
It's more or less the same as the things that you said
I see trouble up ahead
Where the river boat swayed beneath the sun
Is where the river runs red
I see double - that's my trouble.


. . .


And if I could hold you
Where would you belong
sitting here to reason
how the worlds gone wrong

And if I could listen
To half the words you say
Would your pathway glisten
And help you on your way

Oh you’ve got it bad
But you never should expect cover
boy you’ve got it so bad
Worse than any other

If I was in your shoes
Would it be the same
Would you sit in silence
While I dish out the blame

and if the world was laughing
Would you close your ears
There is no creed of chanting
To make the world more clear

oh you got it bad
but you never should expect cover
boy youve got it so bad
worse than any other

(interlude and solo)

If I brought you flowers
Would you watch them grow
Springtime is for certain
To follow on the snow

and if i could hold you
where would you belong
sitting here to reason
on how the worlds gone wrong

Oh you’ve got it bad
But you never should expect cover
boy you’ve got it so bad
Worse than any other

Oh you’ve got it bad
But you never should expect cover
Oh you’ve got it so so bad
Worse than any other

. . .


I never saw it as the start its more a change of heart
Rapping on the windows, whistling down the chimney pot
blowing off the dust in the room where I forgot I laid my plans in solid rock

Stepping through the door like a troubadour whiling just an hour away,
looking at the trees on the roadside feeling its a holiday.
You and I should ride the coast and wind up in our favourite coats just miles away.
Roll a number write another song like Jimmy heard the day he caught the train.

Ooh Lala, Ooh Lala
Ooh Lala, Ooh Lala

He sip's another rum and coke and told a dirty joke
Walking like Groucho sucking on a number 10
Rolling on the floor with the cigarette burns walked in
I'll miss the crush and I'm home again.
Stepping through the door with the night in store whiling just an hour away,
step into the sky in the starbright feeling its a brighter day.

You and I should ride the coast and wind up in our favourite coats just miles away.
Roll a number write another song like Jimmy heard the day he caught the train.

Ooh Lala, Ooh Lala
Ooh Lala, Ooh Lala

You and I should ride the tracks and find ourselves just wading through tomorrow
and you and I when we're coming down we're only getting back
and you know I feel no sorrow.

Ooh Lala, Ooh Lala
Ooh Lala, Ooh Lala

When you find that things are getting wild don't you need days like these x3

. . .


Saturday Afternoon
The sunshine pours like wine
Through the window

And I know golden June
Can turn an empty grey
Against your window

And I feel like I’m on the outside
Of the circle

If I walk by the trees
I’ll catch the falling leaves
If the wind blows

But I know all this means is
Whiling on the hours
Watching sideshows

And I feel like I’m on the outside
Of the circle

Will I turn my coat to the rain
I don’t know
But I’m going somewhere I can warm my bones

Fare you well I’ll carry me away
And sing to those I know
Upon their birthdays

And I won’t feel like I’m on the outside
I wont feel like I'm on the outside
i wont feel like I'm on the outside
Of the circle

. . .


So I said I'm on the roam so I need a car
And I know that I'm getting alive
And I say I got faith and a season
And I say that's where I'm going to

I get a need and I'm wanting to please it
I gotta face and I'm wanting to feel it
The more I feel is the more that I need it
The more I need is the less I believe it

Well I want a good love by my side
Keep on getting out of love and my pride
And I know I keep hurting my love yeah
But I know it ain't killing

I get a need and I'm wanting to please it
I gotta face and I'm wanting to feel it
The more I feel is the more that I need it
The more I need is the less I believe it

So I said I'm on the roam so I need a car
And I know that I'm staying alive
And I know that my faith is in season
And I say that's where I'm going to

I get a need and I'm wanting to please it
I gotta face and I'm wanting to feel it
The more I feel is the more that I need it
The more I need is the less I believe it

I get a need and I'm wanting to please it
I gotta face and I'm wanting to feel it
The more I feel is the more that I need it
The more I need is the less I believe it

. . .


Where do you go
Buttoned in your favourite coat
Stepping out to a different world
When you might be home late

And where are you now
Staring at your favourite box
The one with the travellers cross
On the road past the gate

But if you find yourself standing on the corner
While your thinking of a different world
Then you might see me waiting on the corner
Staring through you in a different world

But if I could swim
Then I’d go out and find my boat
Sail away to my favourite coast
And let you all in

And if I could do, all the things you’re asking for
Then maybe I’d find your door
And bring it home to you
But if you find yourself standing on the corner
While your thinking of a different world
Then you might see me waiting on the corner
Staring through you in a different world

So where do we go
Like two Christopher’s in the snow
Yeah we’re blind but we want to know
Just to say I love you

And all of our lives
We’ll sail through the suns and moons
To sing our Travellers Tunes
Just to say I love you

But if you find yourself standing on the corner
While your thinking of a different world
Then you might see me waiting on the corner
Staring through you in a different world

Sonny signed his name up for tomorrow
And laughed with all his friends
At all the little men who borrow tunes
They heard just yesterday

Davey got us down but we got away
And drank to all the days
That we had whiled away
Just playing Robin Hood a little out of phase

And then the nightmares come
And you get blown away
And up in your room your walls are cold
You find your head is holding out
For the welcome of a better day

And then the nightmares come
And you get blown away
And up in your room the walls are getting colder
Like you’re getting on a roller coaster
You can’t find the breaks

Stevie burned the sky when he flew away
And left us things to say
When all the world was falling down
Around our shoulders, cold and grey

Harry carried on in his usual way
And Minnie went inside
He came out once and we both cried
And Minnie blew my head away

And then the nightmares come
And you get blown away
And up in your room your walls are cold
You find your head is holding out
For the welcome of a better day

And then the nightmares come
And you get blown away
And up in your room the walls are getting colder
Like you’re getting on a roller coaster
You can’t find the breaks

When you’re giving everything away
Everybody lets you pay
You’re saving up for a better day
Seeing things in a better way
You know you’ve got to live
There’s nothing you wont give
To hear the phone and not let it ring
Every Monday morning

Shughie found love and he almost cried
We laughed and wondered why
We loved the sky and found the space
And gazed out over Stevie’s place

And then the nightmares come
When your friend’s go away
And up in your room your walls are cold
You find your head is holding out
For the welcome of a better day

And then the nightmares come
When your friend’s go away
And up in your room the walls are getting colder
Like you’re getting on a roller coaster
You can’t find the breaks


. . .


Sonny went and flipped away and said he had to go
How can you ever say he never stayed alone?
And how could i belong with anyone you know?
Come on every line's a line i'll never know

Oh........It's a beautiful thing
Oh........It's a terrible thing

Sometimes i can get along alone enough
Backing everyone away and never have enough
And how could i be playing every line for you?
Look at the things today that i can never choose

Oh........It's a beautiful thing
Oh........It's a terrible thing

Sometimes i could never ever ever fade again
Sometimes i could never ever ever fade again
Sometimes i could never ever ever fade again

And how could I be playing every line for you?
Look at the things today that i can never choose

Oh........It's a beautiful thing
Oh........It's a terrible thing

All the people under broken homes
Don't wanna fight no more
All the people nursing shattered bones
Don't wanna fight no more
But there's no profit in peace
So we've gotta fight some more

And all these who are in foreign lands
Don't wanna fight no more
And all those who've lost their feet or hands
Don't wanna fight no more
But there's no profit in peace boys
We gotta fight some more

Hey we don't wanna fight no more
Hey, Hey, Hey, We don't wanna fight no more
But theres' no profit in peace
So we gotta fight some more

And all those just trying to play their part
Don't wanna fight no more
And all those who own a human heart
Don't wanna fight no more
But there's no profit in what you want
So we must fight some more

And all those who got an axe to grind
Don't wanna fight no more
And all those who got their burning lives
Don't wanna fight no more
But there's no profit in ever being right
So we must fight some more

Chorus

And all the people under broken homes
Don't wanna fight no more
All the people never going home
Don't wanna fight no more
But there is profit in the land you own
So we must fight some more

And all those who got a tired face
Don't wanna fight no more
And all those who are lost without a trace
Don't wanna fight no more
But there is profit in the love of hate
So we must fight some more

If anyone rises at 6.31
and fakes all day that
they're having their fun
havinthey never did get it right
since they got it so low

To anyone drinking the morning away
the afternoon will prove a mistake
they never will get it right
since we got it so low

And we laugh and we drink
and we teach ourselves not to think
we never did get it right
since we got it so low

To all of the faces that
freeze for you there
in your memory when you try not to care
they never disappear down the slow road

For all of those people
who bleed by the side
and split from their tongues
and sharpen their knives
they never will get a life now
they've got it so low

And we laugh and we drink
and we teach ourselves not to think
we never did get it right
since we got it so low

Cornfields and pig-tails and
fish in the stream
the night when the boys stole
a billion dollar dream
from the high jinx school
for girls down the road

Stories and smoke trails
and some may be true
you're listening to me
but im talking to you
i hope you never fall from grace
if you get it so low

And we laugh and we drink
and we teach ourselves not to think
we never did get it right
since we got it so low

And we laugh and we drink
and we find it hard not to think
we never did get it right
since we got it so low

never did get it right
since we got it so low

. . .


It's warm outside
But I can hear the snow
Falling on my window
I had to go away
To somewhere deeper down
I know it's my mistake
To take off out of this town
And June becomes July

This road's on fire
And my train's running slow
It rains against my window
I had to get away
To somewhere no-one knows
I know it's my mistake
To take off now in this way
And June becomes July

The air is thin
When you're above the clouds
I see them from my window
It's strange to get away now
To somewhere no-one goes
I know it's my mistake
But I don't even know now
And June becomes July
And June becomes July


. . .


I am the news and I'll say no more
I am the stranger at your door
I am the the deep beneath the sea
The threat of flood tide rising
I am the banks bearing refugees
Always a cause not solution
A constant fear or a fleeting joy
Your only friend who needs using

I am the news and I'm in your face
And I'll take my profit from your faith
I am the the face beneath the face
The catalyst of explosions
I am the crop bearing crippled genes
I am an inside connection
A constant friend on a changing screen
Your history and direction

Radio, radio
I'll turn you on again
You're the truth
You're a soothe
Be the blues
Be my best friend
Don't give us the truth
I need the news again

I am the news and I'm every spin
I am what is and what's not in
I am the trump card, I'm the ace
I am the news and I'm in your face
I am the ocean's biggest roar
I am the smallest twist of fate
I am the ending of a play
I am the opening curtain

I am the crop bearing crippled genes
I am an inside connection
A constant friend on a changing screen
Your history and direction

Radio, radio
I'll turn you on again
You're the truth
You're a soothe
Be the blues
Be my best friend
Don't give us the truth
I need the news again

This England made me between the war and rockets flying.
And from the crib it saves me and teach me wrong from right.
The world was talking never got its chance to say.
Too much talking nobody hears a word you say.

You won't see and baby now I won't hear,
My communications only last throughout the year
and half of what we're saying is half-way inner truth.
Cos my communications for a million hearts and fools.

I am a witness to a land of a million fools.
All placing bets on life and hate the ones who lose.
And all lonely never get the chance to say.
That the one and only would be the chance to even play.

You won't see and baby now I won't hear,
My communications only last throughout the year
and half of what we're saying is half-way inner truth.
Cos my communications for a million hearts and fools.

Hello Monday, the weekends just a blur.
I been burning bridges and now I'm begging at your door,
So keep on working cos its a chance for me to play.
Too much talking when you believe the words I say.

You won't see and baby now I won't hear,
My communications only last throughout the year
and half of what we're saying is half-way inner truth.
Blind communications for a million hearts and fools.

The mechanical wonder is
It's just a noise in my room
And i'm chasing the wonder and
It's just a hole in my tune

And the radio plays but it
But it don't sing a song
And the mechanical thunder is
What is all going wrong

And i walk down the road and i
I awake in a tune
But the mechanical thunder is
It's just a noise in my room

And we rode it once
On a thundering night
So i'll walk with you
Where the locks take flight

Oh machines make our lives today
And i like them the best
But the mechanical thunder is
It's just a noise in my head

And the radio plays at me
But it don't sing a song
But the mechanical wonder is
How it's all going wrong

And they rode it once ("And we rode it once" on last chorus)
On a thundering night
So i'll walk with you
Where the locks take flight
And we'll keep on through
It's where the road don't roar
Where the farm once stood
Where the union crawls, big time

They're machines that i'm walking from
Though they play in the songs
And the dreams that you're holding on
Don't hold on for so long

So i'm hiding machines away
But i'll keep them for you
But the things that you wanna say
it's just a noise in my room

And i look at the picture now
And there's a weight on us all
But the mechanical wonder is
It's a cure one and all

Repeat full chorus with slight variation

. . .


Well i got a problem
and it just won't wait
I've been getting on one
With the man who guards your gate
When he says you're sleeping
In your hideaway
It is what he's keeping back
That gives your game away
Come quit your crazy lowdown ways
You're walking astray
Come quit your weary worn out ways
You're walking astray

And i'd like to say
That i like this
More than i do today

Yes i' got a problem
like you've never seen
I've been getting bothered
By the man who locks your screen
When he says you're hiding
And in your room you'll stay
It is what he's holding back
That says what he can't say

Come quit your crazy lowdown ways
You're walking astray
Come quit your weary worn out ways
You're walking astray

And i'd like to say
That i like this
More than i do today

I'm just a lazy man
Who has to hear the truth
And i hear what's true from you

Come quit your crazy lowdown ways
You're walking astray
Come quit your weary worn out ways
You're walking astray
Come quit your crazy lowdown ways
Come quit your weary worn out ways
You're walking astray

And i'd like to say
That i like this
More than i do today

La la la
La la la
La la la
La la la

Go take your bags away
Get out of my home
Get out of my life
I don't want you hanging round
And I don't want you to be my wife
When I go to the cafe
I sit in the seat that faces the mirror
I look at my face today
And I look such a wreck today

I knew you well for five minutes and one day
O-oh no way, Jose

I don't ??? ugly views
And I'm not interested in family muse
And ?? is boring and conversation pours
Even when we're in bed
I wanna rearrange your head
Put down the covers
And get you up against the wall
Shoot good babe

Well I knew you well for five minutes and one day
O-oh no way, Jose

You follow where it's going
Can't you see I was breaking
How'd you know the love making wasn't only faking

You get out of my home
And you get out of my life
You didn't hang around much girl
'Cause now you're someone else's wife
I go to the cafe
And I sit in the seat that faces the mirror
Well I look at my face today
And I look so good today

Well I knew you well for five minutes and one day
O-oh no way, oh no way, oh no way, Jose

You're just another girls names
O-oh you're just another girls name (X3)

My brother sarah
Doesn't know what clothes to wear
It's a dilemma
To get the stuff to match your hair

But mother and father
Sister and brother
Say they just don't know

My brother sarah
Really wish you understood
Why he's got to show it
For it to be any damn good

But mother and father
Sister and brother
Say they just don't know

My brother lies awake at night
Wishing this world could just be right

But mother and father
Sister and brother
You and all the others
Say you just don't know

. . .


I've got mona lisa eyes
I can stare through all your lies

Maybe they will come tomorrow (x3)
But it's only another day away

Look down on everything in sight
Look down on everything and say goodbye
And it's only another day away

I've got mona lisa eyes (x3)
And it's only another day away
Day away...

It's so nice on the seventh floor
I'm taking you there ? ? ? ?
I get scared I can't touch the ground
But I feel safe when my friends come round

Ever so nice - live on the seventh floor
Ever so nice - I'm safe ? ? ?

So much fun on the seventh floor
Everyone laugh when you walk through the door
I get scared when my friends come around
I look at the walls and swallow most down

Ever so nice - live on the seventh floor
Ever so nice - I'm safe ? ? ?

I've been to every floor
And on every floor
And just/still don't feel any better

When you're starting to choke take some pills with your coke
It's inspirational
When you're life is a mess light one more cigarette
It's so logical

Well it's something your mother can't abide
But it's something that i freely prescribe
Take yourself for a ride
It never felt so good
As the night that you and i played Robin Hood
Stealing from the backrooms of our minds
Remembering a time when we were fine
A time i thought we'd left behind

When you're starting to cry
I'll come and sit by my side
And I will love you so
When the nightmares come
I will try to be fun, even though;
I'm so scared you know

Well it's something your mother can't abide
But it's something that i freely prescribe
Take yourself for a ride
It never felt so good
As the night that you and i played Robin Hood
Stealing from the backrooms of our minds
Stealing from a time when we were fine
A time i thought we'd left behind
Stealing from the backrooms of our minds
Stealing from a time when we were fine
A time i thought we'd left behind

When you're starting to choke take some pills with your coke
It's hysterical

. . .


It's not the way that you look
Or the way that you comb your hair
I know we'll always be there
By the look, by the book
And your troops and your devil may care
I know we'll always be there
I know we'll always be there

And by the way your eyes are shining through
There's nothing to do but wake up in light
And like the way your eyes they shine with the sun
And lighten everyone who wakes up in time to see
The face smiled back easily

I know we'll always be there
By the look, by the book
And your troops as your devil may care
I know we'll always be there
I know we'll always be there

It's not the way that you look
Or the way that you comb your hair
I know we'll always be there (x3)

Falling To The Floor

[No lyrics]

. . .


Hello Monday my old friend
I come with you to talk again
And then again I`m still waiting
There`s no point in hanging on
Watching the sun go down
Spinning round and round

Ah... Monday morning
I don`t know if you are coming
Ah... Monday morning
I don`t know if you are coming

Hello Monday my old friend
I come with you to talk again
And then again I`m still waiting
What`s point in hanging on
Watching the sun go down
Spinning round and round and round and round

Ah... Monday morning
I don`t know if you are coming
Ah... Monday morning
I don`t know if you are coming for me
Oh for me, for me...
Ah... Monday morning
I don`t know...

What`s the point in hanging on
After the sun is gone
I`m hanging on and on and on and on

Repeat Chorus 1

. . .


These are the best times
That you'll ever have
Don't throw it away because
You're younger that he is

He's your father
And he'll help you
If you give him
He's your father
He'll deserve you
If you give him time

These are the best times
So we'll march in time
The sun is too ripe to let
The moon shine on your eyes

Repeat Chorus

These are the straight ways
Don't make it long
Don't get yourself lost because
You're following someone else's song

Repeat Chorus

. . .


When the dream came I held my breath with my eyes closed
I went insane like a smoke-ring day when the wind blows

Now I won't be back 'till later on, if I do come back at all
But you know me, and I miss you now

Doo, doo, doo

In a strange game I saw myself as you knew me
When the change came and you had a chance to see through me

Well the other side is just the same
You can't tell my dream is real
Because I love you
Can you see me now

Though we rush ahead to save our time
We are only what we feel
And I love you
Can you feel it now

. . .


Henry took out all the wrong and never thought
Do you know what he'd say, it's a beautiful day
Henry took out all his money and found he had none
Do you know what he'd say, it's a beautiful day

And he would not buy the things that you were handing down
And he would not clear it off for you and leave you lying down

Henry found the love and he found it just today
Do you know what he'd say, it's beautiful day
Put my face in all the things that I've never done
Do you know what he'd say, it's beautiful day

And he would not follow things that others said or done
And he would not follow things that you call everyone

'cause henry found the note and he found it hard to give away
Do you know what he'd say, it's a beautiful thing
Bottled up a ticket to God knows where
Do you know what he said to the driver, it's a beautiful day

And he would not follow things that you were handing down
And he would not buy the alternate news when the dogs were being drowned

'cause henry found the love and he found it today
Do you know what he'd say, it's a beautiful thing
And you know what he knows, that it's a beautiful day
And you know what he'd say, that it's a beautiful day

'cause henry got it all and he found it just today
Do you know what he'd say, it's a beautiful day...

Even while I've got my word it goes on and on
On and on, it goes on and on
Seen my fortune and I lift my words and they are everything
Oh oh, they are everything

Sailing boats and open roads can seem to pass you by
But sailing boats and open roads can pass you in disguise

Seen my days and oh I swear they go on and on
Oh oh, they go on and on
Have ? ? ? and it seems to work and it says everything
Oh oh, it goes on and on

Repeat first verse

. . .


We came down the stairs
And hardly said a word
And all through the day
That's all we heard
And we wanted to know
Where mariners went wrong
And all through the day
We played the same song

And I let the wind blow down my leg
And I let the rain wash over my face
'cause I've seen love
Falling in the rain
Lightening up the sun
To show you that you
Are here again

We lived by the door
And we hardly knew what for
And all through the day
Nothing was heard
But I still want to know
Where mariners way went wrong
And all the same year
They play the same son

Repeat chorus twice

. . .


Your face is looking like
Someone you forgot you used to know
You were looking for rhymes and reason
They forgot the things you used to know
You came to rely on good fortune
Your mother's screaming low
With the sky in the eye
And jump through the window

You've made your own room at the top
Well it's getting thin on air
Still you look at me from your most expensive chair
And when you're feeling fit to drop
And you find there's no one there
Still you look at me from your most expensive chair

You don't wanna shout about it
When there's nothing you care to know
Your friends they just laugh about it
In the places that you never go
You cannot deny your good fortune
Your friends they won't let go
See your hair is in place
And see away from the window

Repeat chorus

You're the judge how high it hangs
When your castle's made of sand
Because the people who kill the king
Are the people who move from within
You can't rely on good fortune
Your friends are crying low
Kick your feet from the chair
And let it slip from the gallow

Repeat chorus

. . .


She is home
Tellin' she's the one
Who makes you well
She makes you feel okay

She is home
Tellin' she's the one
Who makes you go
And sends you on your way

But she's getting something
You start to feel
She blows the faster deal (? )

She is there
Making up the face
To hide the scar
You won't lurk beneath it

She is there
She's got more than anyone
And so I've always thought she must deserve it

And if you get your way
I may blow the faster deal (? )

Everyone
Hope's say I the one(? ? ? )
I wish you well
I hope you feel okay
(repeat)

And if you get your way
Feel the way you're feeling
(x3)
