Deja Vu (UK bonus track)
. . .


Gold lion is
Gonna tell me where the lot is
Gold lion is
Gonna tell me where the lot is
Take our hands
Out of control
Take our hands
Out of control

Now tell me what you saw
Tell me what you saw
There was a crowd in scene
Inside, outside
I must have done of dozen each
It was a hide
I threw the weight
The shell was crushing you
I been around a few
Tell me what you saw
I'll tell you what to

Chorus:
Ooo, ooo
Ooo, ooo
Ooo, ooo
Aww, ooo
Ooo, ooo
Ooo, ooo
Ooo, ooo
Aww, aww

Gold lion is
Gonna tell me where the lot is
Gold lion is
Gonna tell me where the lot is
Take our hands
Out of control
Take our hands
Out of control

Outside, inside
This is a move without a tide
We'll build a fire in your eyes
We'll build a fire; when the covers
Getting brighter
Cold desire
Makes a move without a tide
Tell me what you saw
I'll tell you what to

. . .


Lies and love
Lies, love
Bed wetting son of the great heat
It's all over me
It's all under me
The face ain't making what the mouth needs

Wonder more
Want, more
Than we did before
Try the new tease
Well, quiet you
Get over me
The shit is running and it runs deep

I'm way out
Way out
When you mean it on the inside you still can't get to me
To me

Fits around me so tight, nuh oh
Fits around me

I'm way out
Way out
When you mean it on the inside you still can't get to me
To me

Ooh oh

. . .


I find it in an atlas
Or flipping over old news
Check what’s in the trash bag
Well just a little part of you
Well just a little part of you
I beg your pardon, beg your pardon, beg your pardon
Oh-ah!

Blame me for where you are
Tell me what I gotta lose
That’s a bit fancy
Well just a little part of you
Well just a little part of you
I beg your pardon, beg your pardon, beg your pardon
Oh-ah!

We read it
For three days
We read it
For three days
We read it
For three days
We read it
For three days
We read it

We were overlooked
Like a puzzle book
Dead in the eyes
Dead in the eyes
Watch us from the nooks, ah
We were overlooked
Like a puzzle book
Dead in the eyes
Dead in the eyes
Won’t you find the next, ah

Well just another part of you
Well just another part of you
Well just another part of you
I beg your pardon, beg your pardon, beg your pardon
Oh-ah!

We read it
For three days
We read it
For three days
We read it
For three days
We read it
For three days
We read it

(Pow-Pow!)x4

Hey!

(Pow-Pow)x4

Don’t touch kid, sleep with the lights on
Touch kid, how you surprise me
Now roll kid, knock your body off!

You’re something like a phenomena
Something like an astronoma
Now roll kid, knock your body off!

Something like a phenomena, babe
You’re something like a phenomena
Something like a phenomena, babe
You’re gonna get your body off

Don't fall asleep with the motor running
She’ll make you sweat in the water
Don't fall asleep with the motor running
She’ll make you sweat in the water

Hot time kid
Hot time kid
It’s cold under the blanket
They loved it
They shot it
The fastest ran and got it
That story that ease my
They hide it up the sleeves, my
They hide it
They hide it
They’re never gonna find it

Don't fall asleep with the motor running
She’ll make you sweat in the water
Don't fall asleep with the motor running
She’ll make you sweat in the water

Something like a phenomena, babe
You’re something like a phenomena
Something like a phenomena, babe
You’re gonna get your body off
Something like a phenomena, babe
You’re something like a phenomena
Something like a phenomena, babe
You’re gonna get your body off

Hot time kid
Hot time kid
It’s cold under the blanket
Hot time kid
Hot time kid
It’s cold under the blanket

Verse 1:

Turn yourself around!
You weren't invited!
Turn yourself around!
You weren't invited!
Good, good things
Happen in bad towns
Good, good things
Happen in bad towns

Chorus:
Run away, run away, you want it
Run away, run away, you want it
Run away, anyway, you want it
Run away, run away, you want it

Verse 2:
What, what did you do to your back
Kept soft thoughts cut lips carry pin back
Junk jump off too much talk
Old hope breeds
Cold needs
Undress cold keys

Chorus:
Run away, run away, you want it
Run away, run away, you want it
Run away, anyway, you want it
Run away, run away, you want it

Vamp:
Ohh, ohhh...
I've got call from the bear
Gonna take all his honey, honey
Ohh, ohhh...
I've got call from the bear
Gonna take all his honey, honey
Ohh, ohhh...
I've got call from the bear
Gonna take all his honey, honey
Ohh, ohhh...
I've got call from the bear
Gonna take all his honey, HONEY!

Run away, run away, you want it
Run away, run away, you want it
Run away, anyway, you want it
Run away, run away, you want it

What?
What?

Cheated by
The opposite of love
Held on high
From up up up above
Kept my high
From the second one
Kept my eye
On the first one

Now take these rings
And stow them safe away
I'll wear them on
Another rainy day
Take these rings
And stow them safe away
I'll wear them on
Another rainy day

Take these rings
And stow them safe away
I'll wear them on
Another rainy day
Take these rings
And stow them safe away
I'll wear them on
Another rainy day

Well I'm
Taka-taka-taka-taka-takin' it off
And she's
Taka-taka-taka-taka-takin' it off
And he's
Taka-taka-taka-taka-takin' it off
And we're
Taka-taka-taka-taka-takin' it off

Sometimes
I think that I'm bigger
Than the sound
I think that I'm bigger
Than the sound
I think that I'm bigger
than the sound
I think that I'm bigger
Than the sound

She'll take on high
She'll take on high-igh

Well sometimes
I think that I'm bigger
Than the sound
I think that I'm bigger
Than the sound
I think that I'm bigger
Than the sound
Well I think that I'm bigger
Than the sound

Cheated by
The opposite of love
Held on high
From up up up above
Kept my eye
On the second one
Kept my high
From the first one

Now take these rings
And stow them safe away
I'll wear them on
Another rainy day
Take these rings
And stow them safe away
I'll wear them on
Another rainy day

Now take these rings
And stow them safe away
I'll wear them on
Another rainy day
Take these rings
And stow them safe away
I'll wear them on

Hot cold season gonna sink in my sweat
No one isn’t ever gonna make it there yet
You can’t even cope with it
Then you pass me by
And you'll take it over and you'll make it mine

Fast living is holding me back
Wishing that my baby never told me that
I can’t even cope it to make it last, then you'll pass me by
And I take it over and you'll make it mine

And you want it, want it, want it, want it again

My dear you've been used, I'm breaking the news
Well, love nearly beat us
I’m thinking like you
I’m thinking of you
Well, love follows near us
Can love really steer us
Oh can’t it be true
Oh can it be true

I’ve lost all reason for playing new games
Better quit staring cause you’re looking the same
Can’t even cope to make a change
Then you'll pass me by
And you'll take it over and you'll make it mine

. . .


My arms are all twisted
The only thing I miss is
I messed up I missed it,
I messed up, the missing of you

It's getting to sound like they’ve seen you around with her

No mystery
No mystery
No mysteries

Everyone knows the secretest code of mine
They'll tell all my friends and they'll tell all my enemies too

Mystery
No mysteries
No mysteries

No mystery
No mystery
No mysteries

Take it away, Nick!

Well I don't even know what it's like not to go back to you
I don't even know who I like less
You own me, you own me, you own me oooh
Well it's anyone's, anyone's guess
It's anyone's, anyone's guess

Stress, stress, stress, twist, stress, stress, stress, stress, stress

. . .


Green shadow
Want to wait all o- all over me
The end will shelter me away from me
Can we meet again
Meet and meet and meet and meet again
Can you fill the can
If you can feel me

Who you followin’?
Who you starting to move like?
Who you falling for?
Who you falling for?
Whose lies?
Who you followin’?
Who you falling for?
This sound’s on your side!

Secret blue, purple, pink and green right over it
Hold on 'cause the coldest hasn't thawed yet
Well, if we meet again
Meet and meet and meet and meet again
Can you catch the can, if you can fill it

How will you want something to hit with
Again and again and again and again
What’s your crime?
What’s your crime?
Well how will you want
How will she sit
What’s been and again and again and again and again?
What’s your crime?
What’s your, what’s your, what’s your, what’s your, what’s your crime, crime, crime.

. . .


When it'’s missing and you want it more, it isn't right
Turn and turning out the door and back to this
Leave it like it was before and let me out
Must have been an endless story

Giving it all giving all away
You gonna wake up someone
Study all the wings that crowd your face
You gonna up like one
Trouble at home travel away you say
The road don't like me
Travel away travel it all away
The roads gonna end on me

Men they like me cause I'm
A warrior a warrior
Stand on my feet dance
The warrior the warrior
Brave would I'd be, I'd be a
Warrior a warrior

Now strangers have caught on
And there riding in the back seat
The river's gonna wash all
Yeah the river it spoke to me
Told me I'm small and I swallowed it down
If I make it all I’ll make you want me

Trouble at home travel away you say
The road don't like me
Travel it all travel it all away
The road's gonna get on me
And I'm small
The road’s gonna get to me
Well if it makes at all
The road’s end on me
Hey! Hey! Hey!
Like a warrior a warrior
Dance the warrior, the warrior

. . .


I know what I know
I know
On the car ride down
I hear it in my head real low
Turn into the only thing I ever
Turn into
Hope I do
Turn into you

I know what I know
Well, I know
That girl you found
Keeps that kind of window closed
She'll turn into the only thing that ever
Turn into
Hope I do
Turn into you

Can't say why I kept this from you
My, those quiet eyes become you
Leave it where it can't remind us
Turn this all around behind us
Oh, well I know
We'll all fall right in to keep you out
I’d like to tell you all about it

I know what I know
I know
This is the last time around
I’ll hear it in my head real low
Turn into the only thing that ever knows
Only thing that ever knows

I know what I know
Well I know
Ah, yes

. . .


Well black out
There’s no time
The skin of the city is a pulled real tight around
The big head of the hot ride
The skin of the city is blushing at the sight
Of her, of her, of her, of her
It’s deja vu

You got your big teeth with your big bite
You’re ripping off the wrong tag
Shaking with the right
Can you sink ships with your pink thighs
The skin of the city is shaking at the sight
Of her, of her, of her, of her
It’s deja vu

Well here it is again
Can you make it till the end of a deja vu
Well here it comes again
Can you make it till the end
Of her, of her, of her, of her

The way you look, five beats slow, I'm wiggling (x3)

Well here it comes again
Can you make it to the end of a deja vu
Well here it is again
Can you make it till the end of a deja vu
Well here it comes again
Can you make it to the end
Of her, of her, of her, of her
