A redwood tree The radio They moved them down the hall
A beauty Queen from Idaho Was broken in the fall Never write a love song Never write a trip hop Never write a ballad Got to get a grip now Cause nothing ever matters If you hide away from it all In twenty years this place will be Just like LA today Never write a love song Never write a trip hop Never write a ballad Got to get a grip now Cause nothing ever matters If you hide away from it all Never write a love song... |

Sylvie, girl, I'm a very patient person, But I'll have to shut you down, If you don't give up your flirting. Leave him alone, 'cos I know he loves me. Leave him alone, 'cos he tells me he loves me.

Today I got up easy
You know I'm not a morning person Never said I was leaving I wasn't sure until this morning Split screen our apartment Where you still lie there sleeping Keep feeling old cafes He's the one who needs you baby Will you really miss me Will you really think about me Yeah I'd like to think so But as they say I'm always dreaming Goodbye to the tower blocks Last look at the town I'm leaving Tall buildings and offices And this all full of memories baby Now I really don't care Cause I'm dying to get the sun in my hair Yeah I really don't care That I'm here and you're still there Yeah I really don't care Cause I'm going to breathe the country air Yeah I really don't care But it's OK I've been driving for ages Your tapes are starting to bore me Well I think I should stop now I'm not sure if I should call you Split screen our apartment Where you have seen my letters Well I know its not Venus But the scenery's getting better baby |

Checked-in at the airport half an hour late
Jackie caused a scene when we reached the gate Sorry Mr. Pilot but you'll have to wait Cause Paul's still in the duty free When I'm far from home You call me on the phone Tell me everything that's happening in England When I'm feeling blue You call me something new Another stupid name that makes me smile And in a while Ooh another coffee yeah Ooh can you sense it in the air Feels so good Like someone really cares Built my world around certain things you say I think of nothing else at the close of day Except for maybe how I ended up this way Another drink before you go MTV is on another dreary song 20 after 2 and I'm at a loss Cause the hotel bar is closed I walk across the road Sound of Radio Boston makes me smile And in a while |

We hadn't had our tea for long
When you said there's something wrong Can I take this once again You know I'd like to be a friend Behind the wheel of my Capri It seems it like no-ones noticed me And now you're coming out from work And deep inside I feel so hurt I saw the people crowding round You didn't move or make a sound Sky so overcast and grey And something happened here today She's got to run Run away from home You know she's gotta run Run away from home She's got to run You know she's gotta run Run away from home |

She walked out on you last Saturday
Under the wheels Of a crowd on main street USA Know how it feels She said cancel everything And like a fool You never see what's happening She dropped out school Get away let her go Let her go now Hey in your brain Yeah you know Let her go now I should have told you To lose that girl I should have told you That's not your world On her radio she turned the disco down Disco down She thought she looked good in purple jeans From Santa Fe And she overdosed on magazines Just fade to grey |

Last Thursday
5 30 A shoot in Ladbroke Grove Hours later Hey waiter Could you pour some more of those All for you And when I'm all alone I'm by the microphone I see your photograph Don't even want to laugh Some secret Must keep it Hey I wouldn't know who to tell Next morning Fair warning Ooh you have you got something to sell Wide awake The cold cold light of day Realise my taste My taste just slips away I say my taste just slips away Days later Saw the paper How did I fall for you All for you... |

I knew when you
Came around here to see me You'd stay here till the morning Can't stop myself from falling In love with you You know we'll never be the same Been so long It's been so long I'm tired of being alone There's a way to go Honey I know now I'm calling you on the phone Pretending nothing has changed here But strangely familiar tracks are falling You came without a warning I'm glad you're here To take these lonely tears away Been so long It's been so long I'm tired of being alone There's a way to go Honey I know now I'm calling you on the phone On the phone Been so long It's been so long I'm tired of being alone There's a way to go Honey I know now I'm calling you on the phone On the phone On the phone |

On a fog bound morning
With my frozen tiger feet All done so I clocked off early Walked down our street Oh no oh no Do I really deserve this Silhouette at the window It's so hard to believe this Silhouette at the window I was only lonely Only thinking of you I suspected nothing Put all my trust in you Now my pride is in a thousand pieces World slides from view Oh no oh no Do I really deserve this Silhouette at the window It's so hard to believe this Silhouette at the window I was only lonely Only thinking of you |

Hair in curls
Not quite as tall as the other girls I'd ran away from the laughter upstairs Wear high heels and I cut my hair Try to conceal so tired of their small town games Whistle a tune of a horse with no name Hang around by the stadium Drinking a wine like a bowery bum Erica let's go out tonight Staying out till the morning light Erica let's go out tonight Everything's gonna be alright Diamond Joe He took my watch and my stereo I wished I hadn't got a permanent wave Can't show my face at the town arcade Can't stand that place anyway Tired of their small town games Whistle a tune of I gotta see Jane yeah Read the stars of an Aries girl Wear the crown in another world |

One night in never land
Checking out the Amsterdam scene Got a room from some old guy Outside the rocking machine Don't know who you are But you can't come in Turn the TV down Kick the TV in All pictures scattered round All soaked in alcohol Next thing the lights go out I heard a bang on the wall Don't know who you are But you can't come in Turn the TV down Kick the TV in Turn the TV down Kick the TV in |
