Scouting For Girls Album

Every night I remember that evening
The way you looked when you said you were leaving
The way you cried as you turned to walk away
The cruel words and the false accusations
The mean looks and the same old frustrations
I never thought that we'd throw it all away
But we threw it all away.

And I'm a little bit lost without you
And I'm a bloody big mess inside
And I'm a little bit lost without you
This ain't a love song this is goodbye (ooh)
This ain't a love song this is goodbye (ooh)

I've been lost, I've been out, I've been losing
I've been tired, I'm all hurt and confusion
I've been mad, I'm the kind of man that I'm not
I'm going down, I'll be coming back fighting
I may be scared and a little bit frightened
But I'll be back, I'll be coming back to life
I'll be coming back to life

And I'm a little bit lost without you
And I'm a bloody big mess inside
And I'm a little bit lost without you
This ain't a love song this is goodbye (oooh)
This ain't a love song this is goodbye (ooh)

Whoo
And you can try (you can try)
And you can try but you'll never keep me down
And you can try (you can try)
And you can try but you'll never keep me down

La la la la la la la la la
(I won't be lost, I won't be down)

And I'm a little bit lost without you
And I'm a bloody big mess inside
And I'm a little bit lost without you
This ain't a love song this is goodbye

It's alright (It's alright) cause you can try
but you'll never keep me down
It's alright (It's alright) I may be lost but you'll never keep me down
You can try (you can try) you can try but you'll never keep me down
You can try (you can try) I know i'm lost but I'm waiting to be found
you'll never keep me down
you'll never keep me down
never keep me down

Mirror, mirror on the wall
How could I be such a fool?
Mirror, mirror I can't see myself no more

Breathe, breathe in
Welcome to a town called original sin
Breathe, breathe out
Easy getting in, it ain't easy getting out
Cry, out loud
If you're in for a penny, you're in for a pound
Don't, don't pause
You're just another sad case, another lost cause

Mirror, mirror on the wall
How could I be such a fool?
Mirror, mirror I can't see myself no more

A little mistake
That's how you caught me
Riding around with little miss naughty
A little mistake
Am I seeing double?
I see in your eyes you're gonna be trouble, you're gonna be trouble, you're gonna be trouble

Breathe, breathe in
If only you could see all the trouble I'm in
Breathe, breathe out
Another house of cards comes tumbling down

Mirror, mirror on the wall
How could I be such a fool?
Mirror, mirror I can't see myself no more

A little mistake
That's how you caught me
Riding around with little miss naughty
A little mistake
Am I seeing double?
I see in your eyes you're gonna be trouble, you're gonna be trouble

Mirror, mirror on the wall (you're gonna be trouble)
How could I be such a fool? (you're gonna be trouble)
Mirror, mirror I can't see myself no more (you're gonna be trouble)

A little mistake
That's how you caught me
Riding around with little miss naughty
A little mistake
Am I seeing double?
I see in your eyes you're gonna be trouble, you're gonna be trouble, you're gonna be trouble

No one knew your name or cared at school
Everybody knows the kids are cruel
You went from troubled teen and became a beauty queen
I got mixed up somewhere in between

Now I'm losing, I'm losing, my mind, yeah I'm losing
My mind is missing, presumed lost
Now I'm losing, I'm losing, my mind, yeah I'm losing
Don't want you back, no matter what

Woah
Everybody wants to know your name now baby
All I want to do is to forget (to forget)
Everybody wants to know your name now angel
All I want to do is to forget

You took me in and shook me up inside
You got the stuff, the stuff that drives me wild
But you wanted headlines, you wanted bright lights
I was just your cheap and easy ride

Now I'm losing, I'm losing, my mind, yeah I'm losing
My mind is missing, presumed lost
Now I'm losing, I'm losing, my mind, yeah I'm losing
Don't want you back, no matter what

Woah
Everybody wants to know your name now baby
All I want to do is to forget (to forget)
Everybody wants to know your name now angel
All I've got are reasons to forget

She's cool, she's cruel
And that's how you fall under the spell of a goodtime girl (you got a goodtime girl)
She's keen, she's mean
Who knows where she's been? Is this farewell to the goodtime girl? (you want a goodtime girl)

I'm losing, I'm losing, my mind, yeah I'm losing
My mind is missing, presumed lost

Woah
She's cool, she's cruel
And that's how you fall under the spell of a goodtime girl (you got a goodtime girl)
She's keen, she's mean
Who knows where she's been? Is this farewell to the goodtime girl?

All I want
She's cool, she's cruel
And that's how you fall under the spell of a goodtime girl (you got a goodtime girl)
She's keen, she's mean
Who knows where she's been? Is this farewell to the goodtime girl? (you want a goodtime girl)
(X2)
Now I'm losing, I'm losing, my mind, yeah I'm losing
Under the spell to the good time girl
(X2)

Staying in again on a Saturday night,
I'm going to settle on the sofa and turn down the lights.
I got 900 channels but there's nothing to see,
No wonder everybody thinks they should be on TV.

We all want to be famous.
Be a face on the screen.
Read our name in the papers.
Everybody wants to be on TV.

Everybody wants to be on TV.

Forget Audrey Hepburn, Forget Bette Davis.
I want to be known, just for being famous.
I can't act, I can't dance, I can't sing, can't you see?
But I'm young and I'm pretty and that's all that you need.

We all want to be famous.
Be a face on the screen.
Read our name in the papers.
Everybody wants to be on TV.

Everybody wants to be like James Dean.

I want to be the star tonight,
And complain about fame in a story I sell to the news.
I want to be the star tonight,
Want to make the front page as I pose for the boys in the nude.

We all want to be famous.
Be a face on the screen.
Read our name in the papers.
Everybody wants to be like James Dean

We all want. We want to be famous.
We all want. We all want to be like James Dean.
We all want. We want to be famous.
We all want. We all want to be on TV.

We all want. We want to be famous.
We all want. We all want to be like James Dean.
We all want. We want to be famous.
We all want. We all want to be on TV.

We all want. We want to be famous.
We all want. We all want to be on TV.

We all want. We want to be famous.
We all want. We all want to be like James Dean.

Here's a song you can sing along to
For when I've gone away (for when I've gone away)
It's a silly tune I wrote for you (for you)
You can sing it every day (you can sing it every day)

I don't want to leave you (I don't want to leave you)
I don't want to leave you tonight
I don't want to leave you (I don't want to leave you)
I don't want to leave you behind
I don't want to leave you tonight

So if you're down and I'm not around
And the days seem far too long (the days seem far too long)
Well I'll be there if you're ever scared (ever scared)
You can hear me sing along (you can hear me sing along)

I don't want to leave you (I don't want to leave you)
I don't want to leave you tonight
I don't want to leave you (I don't want to leave you)
I don't want to leave you behind
I don't want to leave you tonight

And I know it's hard but life's a bit like that
When it pulls you down and stabs you in the back
And I know it's hard, we'll get through this I know
I didn't know you've been gone for so long (for so long)
I didn't know you've been gone for so long (for so long)
I didn't know you've been gone for so long (for so long)
I didn't know you've been gone for so long (for so long)

I don't want to leave you
I don't want to leave you tonight
I don't want to leave you
I don't want to leave you tonight
I don't want to leave you (I don't want to leave you)
I don't want to leave you behind
I don't want to leave you (I don't want to leave you)
I don't want to leave you tonight
I don't want to leave you (I don't want to leave you)
I don't want to leave you behind
I don't want to leave you tonight

On the radio, on the radio, on the radio, on the radio

Radio station, that's where you came from
Mister sound of the summer and everyone is singing along
You danced to the beat of the drum
The memories made music, the music made memories
The moon in the sky and the hot summer nights that we partied
We stayed out all night long (radio tuning)

Pop me in a pop song (pop me in a pop song)
She pops me in a pop song on the radio
Every night you've been gone
She pops me in a pop song on the radio

Oh no, they'd be playing our song out everywhere I go
Oh there's a place, it keeps me on hold, radio controlled
Oh no, they'd be playing your song out everywhere I go
Oh there's a place, I can see your smile like it was yesterday

On the radio, on the radio, on the radio, on the radio

You left in the autumn without any warning
But the music still played through the wind and the rain and the summer
The summer lived on in my walkman
I wanted to hate you but I can't escape you
You're in every song, every song from the past
A ghost from the radio mast

She popped me in a pop song
Pop me in a pop song (pop me in a pop song)
She popped me in a pop song on the radio
Every night you've been gone
She pops me in a pop song on the radio

Oh no, they'd be playing our song out everywhere I go
Oh there's a place, it keeps me on hold, radio controlled
Oh no, they'd be playing your song out everywhere I go
Oh there's a place, I can see your smile like it was yesterday

I'm alone, I'm alone, I'm alone, wired to the radio
I'm alone, I'm alone, I'm alone but you're everywhere I go
Every night you've been gone
You popped me in a pop song on the radio

Oh no, they'd be playing your song out everywhere I go
Oh there's a place, it keeps me on hold, radio controlled
Oh no, they'd be playing our song out everywhere I go
Oh there's a place, I can see your smile like it was yesterday

On the radio, on the radio, on the radio, on the radio

Am I falling apart?
Is this falling in love, am I going insane?
You scratched out my heart
You scratched out my heart, you etched on my brain

Every word
Every word that you said goes round
Round in my head
Round like a cyclone in my mind

Well I've been trying to get a hold on you
I've been trying to get a hold on you
I've been trying to get a hold on you
On this crazy world of mine

Every day, right from the start
When I showed you my hand, I gave you my heart
Falling in love, feeling alive
Clear as to mud, I'm blue as your eyes, blue as your eyes

Is it all in my head?
You turned me away, you begged me to stay
Is it something I said?
You wanted to change, you wanted the same

Well I've been trying to get a hold on you
I've been trying to get a hold on you
I've been trying to get a hold on you
On this crazy world of mine

Every day, right from the start
When I showed you my hand, I gave you my heart
Falling in love, feeling alive
Clear as to mud, I'm blue as your eyes, blue as your eyes
(X3)

She passed, she's class
Candy for the eye and a twinkle in her smile
She looks like butter wouldn't melt, oh oh oh
He's bewitched, her daddy's rich
You can see she comes from money but she's still a little honey
And it looks like butter wouldn't melt, oh no

He stuttered oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh
I never thought I'd say this
But I think you're so aw-aw-aw-aw-awfully nice
It's alright, she said fine

He was a little bit scared, a little apprehensive
He was just a boy from a local comprehensive
But he'd heard that
Posh girls have good manners but they go like the clappers because they never got to hang around with boys at school
Posh girls have good manners but they go like the clappers because they never got to hang around with boys at school

She seems pristine
But don't be deceived cause she's not that nave
It looks like butter wouldn't melt
He had a fright, that night
She opened his eyes to a world of surprise
And the butter, oh the butter, it had gone, it had gone

She goes oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh
With a twinkle in her eye, she said 'oh my'
To me oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh tonight, tonight

He was a little bit scared, a little apprehensive
He was just a boy from a local comprehensive
But he'd heard that
Posh girls have good manners but they go like the clappers because they never got to hang around with boys at school
Posh girls have good manners but they go like the clappers because they never got to hang around with boys at school

There's nothing like a little bit of class
Wrapped up in a perfect ass
There's nothing like a little bit of class
The poor boy never stood a chance

Is it true what they say about posh girls? (Is it true, is it true what they say?)
Is it true what they say about posh girls? (Is it true, is it true what they say?)
Is it true what they say? (Is it true, is it true what they say?)
Is it true what they say about posh girls?

Posh girls have good manners but they go like the clappers because they never got to hang around with boys at school
Posh girls have good manners but they go like the clappers because they never got to hang around with boys at school

There's nothing like a little bit of class
Wrapped up in a perfect ass
There's nothing like a little bit of class
The poor boy never stood a chance
There's nothing like a little bit of class
They all said it's never gonna last
There's nothing like a little bit of class
Wrapped up in a perfect ass

I never wanted to forget that night we'd had
Dinner, dancing, drinks and then back to my pad
Well bang, bang, bang, who's the man?
You were a naughty girl, the best I'd ever had

Take off your clothes, take off your clothes, that's what she said (and come to bed)
Take off your clothes, take off your clothes and come to bed (that's what she said)
I've got my needs and I don't need sleep
Take off your clothes, take off your clothes and come to bed
It used to be just me but that's how one and one makes three

Three months later on the phone I've got your dad
He's not a happy man, no he was flippin' mad
He's got the hump and you've got the bump
And I've got you and you've got everything I had

Take off your clothes, take off your clothes, that's what she said (and come to bed)
Take off your clothes, take off your clothes and come to bed (that's what she said)
I've got my needs and I don't need sleep
Take off your clothes, take off your clothes and come to bed
It used to be just me but that's how one and one makes three
One and one makes three

Take off your clothes and come to bed
Take off your clothes, that's what she said
I've got my needs and I don't need sleep
Take off your clothes, take off your clothes and come to bed

Take off your clothes, take off your clothes, that's what she said (that's what she said)
Take off your clothes, take off your clothes, take off your clothes and come to bed (and come to bed)
I've got my needs and I don't need sleep (and I don't need sleep)
Take off your clothes, take off your clothes, take off your clothes and come to bed (and come to bed)
(X2)

It used to be just me but that's how one and one makes three

Take a chance, before it's gone
Throw me a rope or string me along
I'm nothing without you, this man is nothing without you
I know it's been a difficult year
It's been all I can do just to keep you near
I want you to know you're the star of my show

I sing these songs about you
It wouldn't be the same without you
I know you try to hide, I know you try to act tough

But take a chance on us (take a chance on us)
Throw your arm round love (don't give me up)
Let it pull you up tonight, take a chance on us tonight
But take a chance on us, (take a chance on us)
But I won't give us up (don't give me up)
Take a chance on us tonight, take a chance on us tonight

I always thought that we could make it through
If you gave me the chance, I always knew
I don't care what they say, you were mine all the way
And thought it seems like it's pouring again
You don't get flowers without no rain
Look what we've done, look how far we have come

Well I sing these songs about you
It wouldn't be the same without you
I know you try to hide, I know you try to act tough

But take a chance on us (take a chance on us)
Throw your arm round love (don't give me up)
Let it pull you up tonight, take a chance on us tonight
Take a chance on us, (take a chance on us)
I won't give us up (don't give me up)
Take a chance on us tonight, take a chance on us tonight

Take a chance on us
Throw your arm round love
Let it pull you up tonight
I know that times are tough (I know that times are tough)
I know we ain't got much (I know we ain't got much)
But I can't give us up tonight, tonight, tonight, tonight

But take a chance on us (take a chance on us)
Throw your arm around love (don't give me up)
Let it pull you up tonight, take a chance on us tonight
But take a chance on us, (take a chance on us)
I know we ain't got much
I won't give us up tonight, tonight, tonight, tonight
