At eight o'clock we
said goodbye That's when I left her house for mine She said that she'd be staying in Well she had to be at work by nine So I get home and have a bath And left an hour or two pass Drifting in front of my TV When a film comes on that she wants to see It's Monday morning 5 19 And I'm still wondering where she's been Cause every time I try to call I just get her machine And now it's almost 6 am And I don't want to try again Cause if she's still not back then this must be the end At first I guess she's gone to Cannes Her silver pack of cigarettes A pint of milk for the cat But it's mid night now and she's still not back It's Monday morning 5 19 And I'm still wondering where she's been Cause every time I try to call I just get her machine And now it's almost 6 am And I don't want to try again Cause if she's still not back Well heaven knows what then Is this the end At half past two I picture her In the back of someone else's car He runs his fingers through her hair Oh you shouldn't left him touch you there It's Monday morning 5 19 And I'm still wondering where she's been Cause every time I try to call I just get her machine And now it's almost 6 am And I don't want to try again Cause if she's still not back Well heaven knows what then Is this the end |

I had a dream but i just can't remember it - what could it mean? how did i ever let it slip? i'm a modern guy - i can't help but be sarcastic: it's a brand new day... well isn't that fantastic?
Hey, it's alright, at the end of the day there's gonna be more nights. everything's okay, no need to get uptight - we can dream another dream tonight. Game show afternoons - is that all i was born for - sitting in my room, just waiting to be called for? [chorus] Another dream tonight, another dream tonight... [chorus] Dream another dream tonight, we can dream another dream tonight, Dream another dream tonight, dream another dream tonight... |

Last thing I remember
I was standing on a hill Shaking out my long black hair I heard the song of an angel Rising from the trees I made my way to the source And it was gone Now here I am I don't recognize this village Where things are made of Glass and metal A man is walking toward me And he's looking pretty strange He says, |

Kamikaze seagull planes
Fighting over chip shop take away remains When you're walking on the cliffs You can't help thinking of How far down the sea is And what if it should give I didn't mean to bring you down Summer's over seaside town She says we shouldn't have come so far This seaside town summer's over Empty pubs echo with sounds Juke box selections that keep going Round and round Maybe rain is all we need To come and wash The summer rubbish off the beach Oh let just go to sleep I didn't mean to bring you down Summer's over seaside town She says we shouldn't have come so far This seaside town I didn't mean to bring you down Summer's over seaside town She says we shouldn't have come so far This seaside town summer's over In the back of the arcades Kids borrow money to play One more final game While mothers wait in family cars I wonder why we ever chose To come so far But I wish you wouldn't ask I didn't mean to bring you down Summer's over seaside town She says we shouldn't have come so far This seaside town I didn't mean to bring you down Summer's over seaside town She says we shouldn't have come so far This seaside town summer's over This summer's over seaside town This seaside town summer's over summer's over summer's over summer's over summer's over |

If you were an angel
I would cut off your wings To keep you with me I would do anything Like broken bottles That slip from drunken hands I've watched my star falling And shatter to the ground First you wash your hair Then you wash your hands Oh yeah I think I understand Untouchable if I'm not fit To even crawl if I'm too sick I'll soak my skin in alcohol Until I feel untouchable Untouchable if I'm not fit To even crawl if I'm too sick I'll soak my skin in alcohol Until I feel untouchable I blew my chances As you blowdried your hair I thought of my answers As you walked down the stairs D'you think i'd defile you If you were to get too close D'you think i'd infect you D'you think i'd give you the dose First you wash your hair Then you wash your hands Oh yeah I think I understand Untouchable if I'm not fit To even crawl if I'm too sick I'll soak my skin in alcohol Until I feel untouchable I'll drink until my skin is full And I will feel untouchable Untouchable if I'm not fit To even crawl if I'm too sick I'll soak my skin in alcohol Until I feel untouchable Untouchable if I'm not fit To even crawl if I'm too sick I'll soak myself in alcohol Until I feel untouchable Untouchable Untouchable Untouchable Untouchable |

Sugar high, then she drops me from the sky, but it never stops me.
From the very first taste it began: i only wanna make her understand, hold her as she melts into my hands, even if she acts like she can't stand me - that's just my hard candy, that's just my ha Ndy. Glycerine is in my veins, it's serene until she runs out again... Ever since the first taste it began: i only wanna make her understand, hold her as she melts into my hands, even if she acts like she can't stand me - that's just my hard candy, that's just my h Andy. Candy... Such a waste when she leaves me - a bitter taste when i want her to feed me. All the shiny paper's just a sham - i only wanna make her understand, hold her as she melts into my hands, even if she acts like she can't stand me - that's just my hard candy, that's just my ha Ndy. That's just my hard candy, that's just my hard candy. That's just my hard candy, that's just my hard candy. |

In the evening rush she takes her seat by the window, and when she lights up nobody speaks - they adjust their clothes. She sits on the train from 5.15 to 5.50; It's always the same: ";The way,"; she says, ";they look at me,"; from Saturday to Saturday.
Contact unclean, lock me up in quarantine. Bathed in the blue wash of a TV screen, surfing served-up dreams, to the happy glow of the burger bar, watching the passing cars, from Saturday to Saturday. [CHORUS] Contact unclean, lock me up in quarantine. Contact, I'm unclean, lock me up in quarantine. Quarantine, quarantine, all our lives we've been in quarantine. Quarantine, quarantine, all our lives we've been in quarantine. Quarantine, quarantine, all our lives we've been in quarantine. Quarantine, quarantine, all our lives we've been in quarantine. |

It's only fiction that causes all the sparks.
They come between us and blow the world apart. It's only tension that I can't diffuse. You really made you mark, I've still got the bruise. And now there's nothing left, just another twisted wreck, with love like Semtex. Like a dud fire work that goes off in your face, we should have lit the sky, but we burnt down the whole place. And now there's nothing left, just another twisted wreck, with love like Semtex. More like a letter bomb blast than a valentine card, with love like Semtex And now there's nothing left, just another twisted wreck, with love like Semtex. More like a letter bomb blast than a valentine card, with love like Semtex. Goodbye and all the best, with love like Semtex. |

Sugar high, then she drops me,
from the sky, but it never stops me. From the very first taste it began, I only want to make her understand, hold her as she melts into my hands, even if she acts like she can't stand me, that's just my Hard Candy. That's just my Hard Candy. Glycerine is in my veins. It's serene, till she runs out again. From the very first taste it began, I only want to make her understand, hold her as she melts into my hands, even if she acts like she can't stand me, that's just my Hard Candy. That's just my Hard Candy, Candy. Such a waste, when she leaves me, a bitter taste, when I want her to feed me. All the shiny paper's just a sham, I only want to make her understand... hold her as she melts into my hands, even if she acts like she can't stand me, That's just my Hard Candy, That's just my Hard Candy. |

The lights come on, I track her moves: locking the door, crossing the room. She's on the phone again, and when she laughs I feel my blood rushing - I feel my blood rush to my heart...
I call her up and disconnect, wait by her house once more to check, stare through the window of her kitchenette, and then I follow her down underground escalators, hiding behind my newspaper until the time when we're together. So here we are, alone again; I'm in the dark, she's in her frame, her window bay. I play the film back through my mind with a few new scenes I've designed; maybe I'll write her one or two more lines, and then I'll follow her down underground escalators, hiding behind my newspaper until the time when we're together. Together, together, together, together... [CHORUS] Together, when we're together, Together, when we're together, Together... |

The Underdogs
Keep running after shining motorbikes Trying to keep up while they look back And laugh Oh we're so tired of dragging our hearts It's the chrome and steel And all the power that we want to feel So when we catch them We will rip them apart Cos it's no more than they did to us [chorus] We've been waiting so long We know just what we want We will cheat and we'll rob Cos we are underdogs The underdogs And we've had too much shit Kicked out of us To stop us howling At the moon through the night And if it keeps them up Well that's alright To be bitter and alone Is such a dirty little job We're jaded to our brittle bones Cos we are the underdogs Yes we are the underdogs [chorus] We've been waiting so long.... The underdogs We are the underdogs The underdogs We are the underdogs |

Milk of amnesia
You make it easier So raise a glass In the air and drown out all your cares Lips round the bottle neck Soon your gonna forget each other and every regret And let your dreams set sail Inside we're feeling warm Ready for any storm We ain't got our weather proofs on But we're feeling strong A belly full of hope Lie back and you will float Drifting on your dream boat To a distant land And we can't make it home We'll sleep on the paving stones Happy just to be there Beneath the starlit dome Milk of amnesia You make it easier Milk of amnesia Everything's fading fast Forget about the past Through the bottom of the glass The world look |

In a skyscraper - in a skyscraper's where I want to live: with no elevator, at the top of the stairs where nobody else is. I don't want any trouble in my little bubble...
Up above the clouds, looking at the crowds down on the ground. Watching from the steeple, all the little people running round. Lock the door behind me, no-one's gonna find me to bring me down. In a skyscraper, we'll send for the papers every now and then. When it's a bit safer, when it's a bit safe we might come down again. We don't want any trouble in our little bubble... Up above the clouds, looking at the crowds down on the ground. Watching from the steeple, all the little people running round. Lock the door behind us, no-one's gonna find us to bring us down. Oh-oh-oh-oh, in a skyscraper, in a skyscraper. In a skyscraper, in a skyscraper. Up above the clouds, looking at the crowds down on the ground. Watching from the steeple, all the little people running round. Lock the door behind us, no-one's gonna find us to bring us down. Oh-oh-oh-oh, in a skyscraper, in a skyscraper. In a skyscraper, in a skyscraper??짖€??짝 |

Vinegar Vera, packed his bags and left home to make his mark. Nobody missed him, because he was back before it got dark.
Vinegar Vera, lying on his bed cursing the ceiling. Because the world turned, and turning it ran over his feelings. Vinegar Vera, now that you're almost 21. Vinegar Vera, locked in the bathroom at your mum's. He looks in the mirror, and rolling the words around his mouth. He doesn't want to come out, he doesn't want to come out. Chip on your shoulder, is harder to hide the more you get older. With every summer, feeling the world get colder and colder. Vinegar Vera, now that you're almost 31. Vinegar Vera, wondering what you have become. [CHORUS] Vinegar Vera, lost his mum in the zoo when he was 5. The Hare Krishnas gave him a biscuit as he sat and cried. Vinegar Vera, never thought life would come to this. Vinegar Vera, drowning in your own bitterness. [CHORUS] He doesn't want to come out, he doesn't want to come out. He doesn't want to come out??짖€??짝 |
