I tell myself lies sometimes
Yeah, I say he and I are gonna be alright
But he don't know me
He thinks I'm happy here
And that this big old dark cloud gonna disappear
If he just holds me

He feels the distance grow between us
I just can't wait to slip away

[Chorus:]
Every night I know where I can find you
I just close my eyes and I'm right there beside you
Every time I reach out and touch you
You're gone with the morning
Gone with the morning sun

I wake up from all these dreams
I swear they seem so real to me
And it just kills me
Oh to realize
This life that I'm living
Is nothing like the one I could've had
I just miss you so bad

[Chorus:]
Every night I know where I can find you
I just close my eyes and I'm right there beside you
Every time I reach out and touch you
You're gone with the morning
Gone with the morning sun

Yeah you're the only one

[Chorus:]
Every night I know where I can find you
I just close my eyes and I'm right there beside you
Every time I reach out and touch you
You're gone with the morning
Gone with the morning sun

You're the only one

. . .


God gave me the sunshine, then showed me my lifeline
I was told it was all mine, then I got laid on the layline
What a day, what a day, and your Jesus really died for me
Then Jesus really tried for me

UK and entropy, I feel like its *fuckin* (beeped out) me
Wanna feed off the energy, love living like a deity
What a day, one day, and your Jesus really died for me
I guess Jesus really tried for me

Bodies in the bodhi tree, Bodies making chemistry
Bodies on my family, Bodies in the way of me
Bodies in the cemetery, and that's the way it's gonna be

All we've ever wanted is to look good naked hope that someone can take it
God save me rejection from my reflection, I want perfection

Praying for the rapture, cause it's stranger getting stranger
And everything's contagious it's the modern middle ages
All day every day and if Jesus really died for me
Then Jesus really tried for me

Bodies in the bodhi tree, Bodies making chemistry
Bodies on my family, Bodies in the way of me
Bodies in the cemetery, and that's the way it's gonna be

All we've ever wanted is to look good naked hope that someone can take it
God save me rejection from my reflection, I want perfection

Bodies in the bodhi tree, Bodies making chemistry
Bodies on my family, Bodies in the way of me
Bodies in the cemetery,
Bodies in the bodhi tree, Bodies making chemistry
Bodies on my family, Bodies in the way of me
Bodies in the cemetery, and that's the way it's gonna be

All we've ever wanted is to look good naked hope that someone can take it
So God save me rejection from my reflection, I want perfection

Jesus didn't die for you, what do you want?
(I want perfection)
Jesus didn't die for you, what are you on?

If a man could beat his own fancy
Then to only breed in captivity
Is pointless
I've been doing what I like when I like how I like it's joyless
Only you know me

I'm doin' fine
And the sun often shines
What are you thinking?
At the worst of my mind
With this thunderbird wine
Baby, I'm drinking

What a waste of all this peace ,
Baby steps and two more sleeps
Till I get to say sorry
I get hysterical, historical; of love is just chemical
Give us something to stop me
Only you know me

Since you went away, my heart breaks everyday
You don't know cos you're not there
You simply found the words to make a lot of feelings fade away -or(our model feelings)
Only you know me

I'm doin' fine
And the sun often shines
What are you thinking?
At the worst of my mind
With this thunderbird wine
Baby, I'm drinking-
Only you know me

Since you went away, my heart breaks everyday
You don't know cos you're not there
You simply found the words to make a lot of feelings fade away-or(our model feelings)
Only you know me
Only you know me

Since you went away, my heart breaks everyday
You don't know cos you're not there
You simply found the words to make a lot of feelings fade away-or(our model feelings)
Only you know me
Only you know me
Only you
Only you
Only you know me

The Egyptians built their pyramids,
The Romans did what they did,
Not everythings come down to this,
It's just you and I I kid,

We could send a million to the Moon,
But why can't I get on with you?
The cellophane around my mouth
Stops the anger spilling out

Our deaf and dumb dinners,
Gravy in the mud,
No singles just fillers,
Sometimes I wish I could, but...

I can't behave
I know it's not the heathen in me
It's just that I've been bleeding lately
Internally, don't turn to me,
Bite your tongue, the torrid weapon
You could learn a useful lesson
What's so great about the great depression?
Was it a blast for you?
'Cause it's blasphemy

Words cut like a knife through vaseline
You can't really mean what you mean
When you say what you say
it's a ritz (?) make them come out that way.

"Wish I was here", well I wish you weren't
Your gift of anger's better burnt
If nothing's said, and nothing's learnt,
I thought I wasn't really good at hurting

Our deaf and dumb dinners,
There's gravy in the mud and...

I can't behave
No it's not the heathen in me
It's just that I've been bleeding lately
Internally, don't turn to me,
Bite my tongue, the torrid weapon
I could learn a useful lesson
What's so great about the great depression?
Was it a blast for you?
Blasphemy

Our great adventure,
Christmas in the snow,
Seen our dimension
What way to go

I can't behave
I know it's not the heathen in me
It's just that I've been bleeding lately
Internally, so turn to me,
Bite your tongue, your torrid weapon
We could learn a useful lesson
Ain't it great about the great depression?
It's not a blast for me
It's blasphemy

. . .


This is a song full of metaphors
All I be needing is tobacco and draw
Better let me in to your country though
Then I can show you what you're missing me for
I'm a night kind of animal
Got a receiver what you testing me for
I was scared so I ate ‘em all
They tasted good but they make me look old

And ooh, you teach like a toothache,
I'm not here for my sake, how long will this mickey take
And ooh, there's heavy entertainment, out here on the pavement
The men about you gotta get away

Do, ooh ooh, ooh, ooh ya mind, if I, II, I, I, II, I touch ya?
Do, ooh ooh, ooh, ooh ya mind, if I, II, I, I, II, I touch ya?

I'll think you're famous if that's what ya want
But you can pick your own pulpit, you must fill your own fonts
Bring some wine and some Sensodyne
Then you can be my favourite dodo
Anyone fancy Monaco
I'm a placebo they're chasing me fool
Don't be scared you could eat ‘em all
They taste good but they make you look old

Ooh, you sick little cup cake,
You could be a keepsake, you jukebox to generate
And ooh, I'm heavy entertainment, in need of containment
I'm mad about you, gotta get away

Do, ooh ooh, ooh, ooh ya mind, if I, II, I, I, II, I touch ya?
Do, ooh ooh, ooh, ooh ya mind, if I, II, I, I, II, I touch ya?

Anyone fancy Monaco?

Go get a portable recliner brain
Must take a photo for sure
Got our problems and a real long name
And she gets high on rollin' roll-ups

Ooh, you teach like a toothache,
I'm not here for my sake, how long will this mickey take
And ooh, there's heavy entertainment, out here on the pavement
The men about you gotta get away

Do, ooh ooh, ooh, ooh ya mind, if I, II, I, I, II, I touch ya?
Do, ooh ooh, ooh, ooh ya mind, if I, II, I, I, II, I touch ya?
Do, ooh ooh, ooh, ooh ya mind, if I, II, I, I, II, I touch ya?
Do, ooh ooh, ooh, ooh ya mind, if I, II, I, I, II, I touch ya?

Stand by me,
I've been stood by you for ages.
Stay calm and carry on,
Maybe nothing's wrong.

Is it the comfort of
Dis-information or
Is it the freedom that you fear.
Said I'm the angel of liberation, love
For a second I believe her.

I'm all you'll hear, ahhhh
While you're here, ahhhhh.

Don't call it a comeback,
Look what I invented here
I thought it was easy,
They came and took it away from us.
The last days of disco.

All raved up,
Bitter is the pill of devotion.
Read between the noise,
All you disco boys
(All you disco boys)

The fascination of
A boy and girl in love,
For a second I could see her.
In the mirrorball
The human animal,
I'm the creature that I fear.

I'm all you'll hear, ahhhh
While you're here, ahhhhh

Don't call it a comeback
Look what I invented here
I thought it was easy
They came and took it away from us.
The last days of disco
The last days of disco
The last days of disco

I'm all you'll hear, ahhhh
While you're here, ahhhhh.

Don't call it a comeback
We'll hold an event in here
This space is beautiful
I'll decide when it is over

So don't call it a comeback
Look what I invented here
I thought it was easy
They came and took it away from us.
The last days of disco.
The last days of disco.
The last days of disco.

. . .


Somewhere there's a place where you can go
Someplace you can lay your heavy head down
Everybody needs somewhere to go
We don't get high to get a come down

You take your chance in life
Go out and find a wife
Don't get stuck in the state I'm in

Someone
Somewhere
Is loving you

. . .


Microwave yourself today
Save you for a rainy day
Hello deceptacon
This will not be going away

From all us here
To all over there
We wish you all of the best
All of the year, she said

Where he's never been quite right
And I know
We'll be stepping on eggshells tonight

And all over Britain
We wait for permission
To form another queue
We stand in position
Because someody's missing
And that somebody is you
But what can I do?

I love you but I don't like you like now
Was all she had to say
Hello deceptacon
I will not be going away

From all of us here
To all over there
We wish you all of the best
All of the year, she said

Only you could make it right
But I'll stop, stepping on eggshells tonight

And all over Britain
We wait for permission
To form another queue
We stand in position
Because someody's missing
And that somebody is you
But what can I do?

Send my best to all concerned
I know I've been a gracious host
Goodbye deceptacon

Who are you?
Who are you?
Who are you?
What are you, to me?
What can I do for you?
What can you do for me?
Who are you?
What are you, to me?

. . .


You laugh at us, we're different
We laugh 'cause you're all the same
By the look on your face baby
We've been enjoying ourselves again

I know that you cried
I know why you tried so hard

Ready, steady, go
Everybody famous
Everyone you know
Why'd it take you ages?

I don't have to listen, read, love like you
I've got no problem with the physical, minimal real life
Living in hysterica for everybody's betterment
Isn't it a miracle, Everybody starstruck

I guess the odds are very good
But the goods are very odd
And even though I talk with the devil
I only made the deal with god.

I am a long list (?)
Knock one off the rest
So hard

Ready, steady, go
Everybody famous
Everyone you know
Why'd it take you ages?

I don't have to listen, read, love like you
I've got no problem with the physical, minimal real life
Living in hysterica for everybody's betterment
Isn't it a miracle, Everybody starstruck

You want to stop
But you can't, can you?
I was lovely
On the way up
On the way up

Ready, steady, go
Everybody famous
Everyone you know
Why'd it take you ages?

I don't have to listen, read, love like you
I've got no problem with the physical, minimal real life
Living in hysterica for everybody's betterment
Isn't it a miracle, Everybody starstruck!!!

Where the future rests in the bistro where the music is for weirdos,
We like it different we like it strange in our own way we haven't changed
I got my eyes made up at the bus stop by my girlfriend and you know what,
She likes me different she likes me strange in her own way she's just the same

Psycho evolution your pollution makes it difficult for weirdos,
Just another humanoid reaction to the voices in this town

Every Saturday at the plaza guess the gender unless you'd rather,
He is a lesbian but that's ok she is the center of attention for another day
In the universe we are magenta you can join us if you enter,
Because you're different and you are strange in your own way you're just the same

Psycho evolution your pollution makes it difficult for weirdos,
Just another humanoid reaction to the voices in this town

Time isn't lost where devotion is I never wasted a life,
Space is the place where the soul should life far from the safe and the norm

In the off stream they call it cavarade but they'll say that won't they,
I want it different I like it strange in my own way I haven't changed
It's insulting to be mislead by the hairdo of a god head
They show reverence but that's ok we are the center of the universe anyway

Psycho evolution your pollution makes it difficult for weirdos,
Just another humanoid reaction to the voices in this town

Psycho evolution your pollution makes it difficult for weirdos,
Just another humanoid reaction to the voices in this town

In this bag of stuff i brought to you,
You didn't mind sorting it through.
You would never be the trouble and strife,
If i made you my swiss army wife.

I could give this up,
I could walk away.
It doesn't fill me up, it didn't anyway
I won't do that to you, won't
do that to you.

I don't mind when the boys look at you,
if i was them, i'd be doing it too.
I mean more to you than handbag and shoes,
so sorry, there's been a few.

I could give this up,
I don't dress too much.
Could i give it up?
All is given up.

I won't do that to you.
Won't do that to you,
Do that to you won't
Do that to you.

Suddenly i'm not the jealous guy,
Another sign that we're doing it right
I could give this up, i could walk away,
Cause you fill me up.
Each and every day.

I promise that
I won't do that to you.
Won't do that to you,
do that to you won't
do that to you.
Won't do that to you,
won't do that to you,
do that to you won't
do that to you.
Do that to you, won't
do that to you.

. . .


Sleep sleep feel the deep,
Get away from the devil in all?
Don't you want to see
What you could have won
Bittersweet, your defeat baby
I'm much sicker than you
All you are is colours
And your colours run

Isn't it genius that you give tonight
You just keep on doing harm
Could only see the sense in being superblind
And just keep on keeping on

I can't help thinking about me
put a thought in for me
I'm the genius behind me
Maybe I shouldn't have said it
Here's to the next century
What will they think if they think about me

Here it is, what a lie say a prayer,
For the way it should be
We are people they don't believe
Wish your mother wouldn't bother
Won't she just stay out of your mind?
Or should they stay when you make them leave

Isn't it genius that you give tonight?
You just keep on doing harm
Could only see the sense in being superblind
And just keep on keeping on

I can't help thinking about me
put a thought in for me
I'm the genius behind me
Maybe I shouldn't have said it
Here's to the next century
What will they think if they think about me

I can't help think about me
Won't you put a prayer in for me
You could talk and think about me

It's like these props know when we're dancing
We can pray our way out of here
You're like a new wave old romantic
Try to break our heart but got stuck on it
Superblind

When your superblind
Keep you out of mind
Because we all know
Cos we didn't care.

. . .


(Instrumental)

The morning brings a mystery
The evening makes it history
Who am I to rate the morning sun?

. . .


Visitors, engineering
All we need is a clearing
We dont know what to feed em
Or even if were really needin

Highway to the stars tonight
Leave the bad news at home
Highway to the stars tonight
Look out below (Look out below)
Look out below (Look out below)
Look out below

Sirius, can you hear me?
I know youre there, will you steer me?
51, I ll be waiting
If you dont mind,
I ll bring my mate in

Highway to the stars tonight
Leave the bad news at home
Highway to the stars tonight
Look out below (Look out below)
Look out below (Look out below)
Look out below

In the Gentlemens Club
(In the Gentlemens Club)
They are passing round their radar (??) / radio (??) / red era (??)
(They are passing round their radar)
Its such a hollow balloon
(Its such a hollow balloon)
Telling people what to do
(What to do)
They are watching you
(They are watching you)

Entities all around me
I cant explain how they found me
Were occupied, but we dont know it
And theres no way to expose it

Highway to the stars tonight
Leave the bad news at home
Highway to the stars tonight
Look out below (Look out below)
Look out below (Look out below)
Look out below

Look out below (Look out below)
Look out below (Look out below)
Look out below

Look out below (Look out below)
Look out below (Look out below)
Look out below

(Look out below - look out below)
(Look out below - look out below)
(Look out below)

And even going home
Dont you wanna go
And even going home
Dont you wanna go
Dont you wanna go
Dont you wanna go-o-o-o-o-o
