Do You Love Me Still? (US bonus track)
. . .



Do you want to go to the seaside?
I'm not trying to say that everybody wants to go
I fell in love at the seaside
I handled my charm with time and slight of hand

Do you want to go to the seaside?
I'm not trying to say that everybody wants to go
I fell in love at the seaside
She handled her charm with time and slight of hand, and oh

But I'm just trying to love you
In any kind of way
But I find it hard to love you girl
When you're far away
Away

Do you want to go to the seaside?
I'm not trying to say that everybody wants to go
But I fell in love on the seaside
On the seaside

. . .


Do you want to see the world?
Do you want to see the world?
Do you want to see the world?
In a different way, yeah

Do you want to see the world?
Do you want to see the world?
Do you want to see the world?
In a different way

I remember how we used to sing
Writing poems in your bed sit
Finding time to be the passenger
But there you are you never saw me leave

But there you go you're sailing away
And you know
You never come away
Yeah but you should
You never lie to me
Yeah but I will
Never come away
Yeah but you should

But do you really want to see
Oh do you really want to see
Oh do you really want see
On your television screen

I remember how we used to be
Without the world upon our TV
Well let it lie or you can take it back
Wrap your life around evil's trap

But there you are you're sailing away
And you know
You never come away
Yeah but you should
You never lie to me
Yeah but I will
Never come away
Yeah but you should

Well do you want to see the world what what
Do you want to see the world what what
Well do you want to see the what what what
Well do you want to see the world what what what
Well do you want to see the world (I know I do) what what what
Do you want to see the world (I know I do) what what what
Well do you really want to what what (I know I do)
Well do you really want to what what (I know I do)
Well do you really want to see (I know I do) (I know I do) (I know I do)

. . .


The city freeze before
I just realised I don't like you
Me and my girl
Are going out for some air
And I will do my best
Just to get under her dress
And catch you out if I can
On the other side of my sofa

Won't you come on over
At the side of my sofa
Oh won't you come on over

The city heated it up
It got blurry cause I'd had enough
And he tried to take your soul
But didn't realise you keep it in a different hole

Won't you come on over
At the side of my sofa
Oh won't you come on over

So here he comes, a man with
A loaded gun, I don't know if he
Wants my soul or my
Cash flow, I s'pose I don't know

So here he comes, a man with a
A loaded gun I don't know if he
Wants my girl's heart or her pearls
I s'pose I don't know
I s'pose I don't know
I s'pose I don't know
I s'pose I don't know
I s'pose I don't know



. . .


Did you see the way she looks at me
She's got an eye for an awkward guy like me

I tried to love her back
And then I shrunk back into my wrap
And in the barrel of my gun
I hope i'm not the only one

Did you see the way she looks at me
A honeybee got two lives and she's got me

I tried to love her back (she's just a girl)
And then I shrunk back into my wrap (she's just a girl)
And in the barrel of my gun
I hope i'm not the only one
And in the barrel of my gun
I hope i'm not the only one

Do do, do do do

I tried to love her back (she's just a girl)
And then I shrunk back into my wrap (she's just a girl)
And in the barrel of my gun
I hope i'm not the only one
And in the barrel of my gun
I hope i'm not the only one

. . .



In their eyes is the place that you finally discovered
That you love it here, you've got to stay
On the bottom of the rock, an island
On which you find you love it when you twitch
You feel that itch in you pettycoat
Your pretty pretty pettycoat

Then you smiled, he got wild
You didn't understand that there's money to be made
Beauty is a card that must get played
By organisation

And ooh la, she was such a good girl to me
And ooh la, the world just chewed her up, and spat her out
And ooh la, she was such a good girl to me
And ooh la, the world just chewed her up, and spat her out

The world can be a very big place
So be yourself don't get out of place
Love your man and love him twice
Go to Hollywood and pay the price
Oh go to Hollywood

And don't be a star, it's such a drag
Take care of yourself, don't begin to lag
It's a hard life to live, so live it well
I'll be your friend and not in pretend
I know you girl
In all situations

And ooh la, she was such a good girl to me
And ooh la, the world just chewed her up, and spat her out
And ooh la, she was such a good girl to me
And ooh la, the world just chewed her up, and spat her out

Pretty pretty pretty pretty pretty pretty pretty pretty pretty
Pretty pretty pretty pretty pretty pretty pretty pettycoat
Pretty pretty pretty pretty pretty pretty pretty pretty pretty
Pretty pretty pretty pretty pretty pretty pretty pettycoat
In all situations

And ooh la, she was such a good girl to me
And ooh la, the world just chewed her up, and spat her out
And ooh la, she was such a good girl to me

. . .


But you don't love me the way that, I love you
'Cos if you did girl you would not, do those things you do
You killed my heart just to see if, I will rise
Above your anger and above your lies

And all I see of you, is when you're not so busy
Oh your not so busy

But you don't love me the way that, I love you
'Cos if you did boy you would not, do the things you do
You killed my heart just to see if, I will rise
Above your anger and above your lies

But oh my darling look at you
The words that only you could use
But you no you'll always be my girl, girl
I'll take you out just for a while
Show you all the city sites
But you no you'll always be my girl, girl

But you don't love me the way that, I love you
'Cos if you did girl you would not, do those things you do
You turned my life around and for that, I am glad
However much I love you this love, is getting bad

And all I see of you, is when you're not so busy
Oh your not so busy

But you don't love me you don't care, woman
But you don't love me you don't care, woman
But you don't love me you don't care, woman
But you don't love me you don't care, woman
Oh woman

. . .


So at my show on Monday
I was hoping someday
You'd be on your way to better things
It's not about your make-up
Or how you try to shape up
To these tiresome paper dreams
Paper dreams, honey

So now you pour your heart out
Your telling me you're far out
You're not about to lie down for your cause
But you dont pull my strings
'Cos I'm a better man
Moving on to better things

Well uh oh, oh I love her because she moves in her own way
Well uh oh, oh she came to my show just to hear about my day

And at the show on Tuesday
She was in her mindset
Tempered furs and spangled boots
Looks are deceiving
Make me believe it
And these tiresome paper dreams
Paper dreams, honey
Yeah

So wont you go far
Tell me you're a keeper
Not about to lie down for your cause
And you don't pull my strings
'Cos I'm a better man
Moving on to better things

Well oh oh, oh I love her because she moves in her own way
Well oh oh, oh she came to my show just to hear about my day

Yes our winter storm will never make it
Through all the summers
Their keeping us instead of
Kicking us back
Down through the suburbs
Yes our winter storm will never make it
Through all the summers
Their keeping us instead of
Kicking us back
Down through the suburbs

But uh oh, I love her because she moves in her own way
But uh oh, she came to my show just to hear about my day
But uh oh, oh I love her because she moves in her own way
But uh oh, oh she came to my show just to hear about my day

. . .



Viciously, she sleeps
Walks alone her lonely beat
She trips, falls into it all
And I wish I bite my lip and
Call her away from you my little one
Oh from you my little one

Don't come too close
You don't wanna see my ghost
Your turn but I'm betrayed
By you my sweetheart
Don't you think that you went too far
Do you want to see my heart bleed?
For you, you and him
Him and you, you know my heart bleeds

All of us, we're going out tonight
We're gonna walk all over your cars
The Kooks are out in the streets
Oh were gonna steal your signs
All of us, we're going out tonight
We're gonna walk all over your cars
The Kooks are out in the streets
Oh we're gonna see your...

I'm sorry that I let you go
I let you down, I let you down my dear
I always seem to play these games with you my, dear
I always, I always...

All of us, we're going out tonight
We're gonna walk all over your cars
The Kooks are out in the streets
Oh were gonna steal your signs
All of us, we're going out tonight
We're gonna walk all over your cars
The Kooks are out in the streets
Oh we're gonna steal your signs

Oh my Juliet, I'll never betray you my love
Oh my Juliet, I'll never, I'll never betray you

Woah woaaaaaooooooaoaooo
Woah woaaaaaooooooaoaooo
Woah woaaaaaooooooaoaooo
Woah woaaaaaooooooaoaooo

Don't come too close
You don't wanna see my ghost
Your turn but I'm betrayed

. . .


I'm not saying its your fault
Although you could have done more
Oh you're so naive yet so
How could this been done
By such a smiling sweetheart.
Ohh I'm just a sweet and pretty face
In such an ugly world
Something so beautiful.
Ohh that everytime I look inside

I know, she knows that im not fond of asking
True or false, it may be... Well, she's still out to get me.
And I know, she knows that im not fond of asking
True or false, it may be... She's still out to get me!

Something so beautiful.

Take me back to the place where I
Loved that girl for all time
Why must life just take away
Every good thing one at a time

I want it back
Well yes I want it back
Yes I want you back
Please give it me back
Cause I want your love

How can I not even cry?
For such a big thing in my life
The pain it takes the part of me
Turn around and say goodbye

I want it back
Well yes I want it back
Yes I want you back
Please give it me back
Cause I want you

How did you do it females?
It's always you do it angels
You always keep me on the run
So how did you do it angels?
Always you do it females
You always keep me on the run

I want it back
Well yes I want it back
Yes I want you back
Please give it me back
Cause I want your love

. . .


Hold your head, hold your tongue, only say what you have to as a child yes i dreamed of holding
her in the silverscree, she loved her man and
loved him twice, i wish i'd been that passenger,
having fun fly my kite the devil inside wont
control my life
if only if only he wasen't so lonely
he'd have someone to play with instead of
bombing our neighbours
so here i go to see
the world with my eyes and with my soul, too
much love and so little hate the devil inside wont
control my fate, if only in only he wasen't so lonely
he'd have someone to play qith instead of
bombing our neighbours
hold your head and
run my time, the what of life no man can rhyme.
so here we are and here we bleed to be a
victim there's no need, having fun in ever fight
the devil inside controls my fate
if only
if only he wasen't so lonely he'd have someone to
play with instead of bombing our neighbour

. . .


I'd like to say, that I was on your mind
So I phone you at ten past three, in the afternoon
It's evening for you, and another bare hotel room
So hard to believe, that you're dreaming of me too
But it's true

You only go around, round, round
You only go around, round, round
You only go around, round, round
You only go around, round, round

And Amsterdam, I never knew you so well
The stadium rings with laughter, at every turn
At flying piano's of all things, to set your scene
I'm such a nice man to you, but so obscene
And it's true girl

You only go around, round, round
You only go around, round, round
You only go around, round, round
You only go around, round, round

Jackie big tits, is hiding in the corner
Respect is the word she shouts, as I implore her
Speaks her mind not me, 'cos I was only speaking freely
Interupt me once more, I'll take you to the cleaners

You can't push me around, round, round
You can't push me around, round, round
You only go around, round, round
You only go around, round, round

Jackie big tits

. . .



Time waits for no man but you
Time waits for no man but you
Hold on don't leave this town
Hold on don't leave this town

There we are
We're that in our hands
They tear you down
Cause they don't understand
You tried it once again
To love me better
She tore those panties down
Love me wetter

Woo oh oh oh
And like ones and twos and threes and fours
Woo oh oh oh
And I hear you knocking at my door

So hold them down
With blood on your hands
It's past the point
Where you don't understand
The worst you do is lie
Run for shelter
So cast aside these chains
Love me better

Woo oh oh oh
And like ones and twos and threes and fours
Woo oh oh oh
And I hear you knocking at my door
Woo oh oh oh
And like ones and twos and threes and fours
Woo oh oh oh
And I hear you knocking at my door

I hear you knocking at my door darling twenty times or more
I hear you knocking at my door darling twenty times or more
I hear you knocking at my door darling twenty times or more

. . .


You, you aint got no love today
You, you aint got no love today
Don't let them bring me down

You, you aint got no love today
You, you aint got no love today
Don't let them bring you down
Hold on, don't let them bring you down
Hold on, don't let them bring you down

Don't let them bring you down
Don't let them bring you down

Got no love
Got no love

. . .


I have thought that you have come back lately
to take my soul away from me
cause when i see you
you rip my heart out
but all the same you're not to blame
baby baby i love you still

but i need your heart beating next to my heart
in love i am
i need your heart beating next to my heart
in love i am

do you remember how i met you child
i was down and i fell for you completely
when i wanted your heart and
you didn't want me now you did
but now you did

i need your heart beating next to my heart
in love i am
i need your heart dancing next to my heart
in love i am

baby do you love me still
cause i miss you
i miss you'
baby
i miss you
