I was so low People almost made me give up trying Always said no Then I turned around saw someone smiling Chorus: I stepped into I stepped into Into another Into another I stepped into I stepped into Into another Into another world There was no light I was going to all the wrong places Like day from night Suddenly I saw a thousand faces Chorus (C) 1982 by Albion Music Ltd.

Trying to find Chinatown
Trying to find Chinatown A hungry man Can hold out a long time For some soul food Good food, whole food I know I was that man Maybe sometimes hold out a little too long I took a right Then I took a wrong turn Someone asked me for a quarter It didn't seem to fit He didn't look much like a Chinaman Trying to find Chinatown Trying to find Chinatown An old black man Pushing a shopping trolley Filled with tin cans Avoided his glance I'm nervous and I'm lost And I don't see too many restaurants A guy laid out With a knife in his back A cop came along Told him, move on Go home and sleep it off I didn't know if I should get involved Trying to find Chinatown Trying to find Chinatown |

Here we stand ?
(remote control buttons in our sweaty little hands) As one man ? (we're lining up and waiting for someone's command) We don't move ? (we sent out for food, get the news on video) I can prove ? (there's no need for movies, we got HBO) In the T.V. age They're out there somewhere (you know the force has got a lot of power ? but what makes you think it gives a shit about you… who are you anyway?) They're taking over (and I believe ? the aliens have to take a physical form on our planet ? so why not one with 13 channels…) They're out there somewhere Times must change (this ain't the stone age, we don't have rocks in our heads) What's so strange ? (we don't work no more, so why get out of bed) T.V. rules ? (pretty soon you won't be able to turn it off at all) All you fools ? (then it'll turn you off ? your back's against the wall) In the ? T.V. Age |

Uptown ? downtown
No one's fussy I'm a target Black, white ? day, night No one's fussy I'm a target Somebody say I'm crazy Walking in this neighbourhood Say you can't be too careful But that won't do no good I'm no one special But any part of town Someone could smile at me then Shake my hand then gun me down Uptown ? downtown No one's fussy I'm a target Black, white ? day, night No one's fussy I'm a target Somebody say I'm crazy Living in this crazy town I say maybe you're just lazy Got to either swim or drown I know what I'm doing I'm happy day to day But then something happens Takes my nerve away Uptown ? downtown No one's fussy I'm a target Black, white ? day, night No one's fussy I'm a target |

Now ?
The mist across the window hides the lines But nothing hides the colour of the lights that shine Electricity so fine Look and dry your eyes We ? So tired of all the darkness in our lives With no more angry words to say can come alive Get into a car and drive To the other side Me babe ? steppin' out Into the night Into the light You babe ? steppin' out Into the night Into the light We ? Are young but getting old before our time We'll leave the T.V. and the radio behind Don't you wonder what we'll find Steppin' out tonight? You ? Can dress in pink and blue just like a child And in a yellow taxi turn to me and smile We'll be there in just a while If you follow me Me babe ? steppin' out Into the night Into the light You babe ? steppin' out Into the night Into the light Me babe ? steppin' out Into the night Into the light You babe ? steppin' out Into the night Into the light Me babe ? steppin' out Into the night Into the light |

Don't you feel like trying something new
Don't you feel like breaking out or breaking us in two You don't do the things that I do You want to do things I can't do Always something breaking us in two You and I could never live alone But don't you feel like breaking out just one day on your own Why does what I'm saying hurt you I didn't say that we were through Always something breaking us in two They say two hearts should beat as one for us We'll fight it out to see it through I say that won't be too much fun for us Though it's oh so nice to get advice It's oh so hard to do Could we be much closer if we tried We could stay at home and stare into each other's eyes Maybe we could last an hour Maybe then we'd see right through Always something breaking us in two |

Take your mind back ? I don't know when
Sometime when it always seemed to be just us and them Girls that wore pink and boys that wore blue Boys that always grew up better men than me and you What's a man now ? what's a man mean Is he rough or is he rugged Is he cultural and clean Now it's all change ? it's got to change more 'Cause we think it's getting better but nobody's really sure And so it goes ? go round again But now and then we wonder who the real men are See the nice boys ? dancing in pairs Golden earring golden tan Blow-wave in the hair Sure they're all straight ? straight as a line All the gays are macho Can't you see the leather shine You don't want to sound dumb ? don't want to offend So don't call me a faggot Not unless you are a friend Then if you're tall and handsome and strong You can wear the uniform and I could play along And so it goes ? go round again But now and then we wonder who the real men are Time to get scared ? time to change plan Don't know how to treat a lady Don't know how to be a man Time to admit ? what you call defeat 'Cause there's women running past you now and you just drag your feet Man makes a gun ? Man goes to war Man can kill and man can drink and man can take a whore Kill all the blacks ? kill all the reds And if there's war between the sexes then there'll be no people left And so it goes ? go round again But now and then we wonder who the real men are |

Music has charms they say
But in some people's hands It becomes a savage beast Can't they control it Why don't they hold it back You see my friend and me Don't have an easy day And at night we dance not fight And we need the energy If not the sympathy But I'm brutalized by bass And terrorized by treble I'm open to change my mood but I always get caught in the middle And I get tired of DJs Why is it always what he plays I'm gonna push right through I'm gonna tell him too Tell him to Play us Play us a slow song Play us a slow song It's late ? I'm winding down Am I the only one To want a strong and silent sound To pick me up and undress me Lay me down and caress me I feel you touch my hand And whisper in my ear Ask me how I'm feeling now And I want to get near you But I can't even hear you But this is a fine romance If we have to be so demanding We need just one more dance to Leave here with an understanding And I get tired of DJs Why's it always what he plays I'm gonna push right through I'm gonna tell him too Tell him to Play us Play us a slow song Play us a slow song |

Did you do me right?
Did I do right by you? When I bare my soul it seems you do not hear Can this be true? Am I a fool to fight? I could do just what you say But I'm following my heart and that takes me another way It's not easy when there's no one giving prizes at the end Waiting in the wings Wishing that the band would start to play As the show begins Wonder what the critics have to say Waiting Waiting For the verdict Some people live so fast They're so scared of getting old Some people keep on working All they do is line their graves with gold We don't know what happens when we die We only know we die too soon But we have to try or else our world becomes a waiting room Would you testify for me? I think I'd do the same for you Waiting in the dark Waiting for the phone to ring all day My witness disappears Wonder what the jury has to say Waiting Waiting For the verdict Waiting Waiting Waiting Waiting |

These words of love so hard for me to find
How can I change my mind if you can only lie? These shattered dreams I try to build again But looks could kill again and I'm too young to die Smiling faces all around us You don't wanna make a scene Not here, not now And I don't wanna cry We drink the wine like we were really friends But can our sadness end and work turn into play? We dress so fine and step out on the town And friends may gather round but soon will turn away Smiling faces all around us You don't wanna make a scene Not here, not now And I don't wanna cry Smiling faces all around us You don't wanna make a scene Not here, not now And I don't wanna cry |

Sometimes you start feeling so lost and lonely
Then you find it's all been in your mind Sometimes you think someone is the one and only Can't you see it could be you and me? But if there's any doubt Then I think I'll leave it out 'Cause I'll tell you one thing You can't get what you want Till you know what you want Said you can't get what you want Till you know what you want Sometimes you keep busy reaching out for something You don't care, there's always something there Sometimes you can't see that all you need is one thing If it's right you could sleep at night But it can take some time But at least I'm here in line 'Cause I'll tell you one thing You can't get what you want Till you know what you want Said you can't get what you want Till you know what you want Sometimes you can't see that all you need is one thing If it's right you could sleep at night But it can take some time But at least I'm here in line 'Cause I'll tell you one thing You can't get what you want Till you know what you want Said you can't get what you want Till you know what you want I'll tell you one thing You can't get what you want, what you want I'll tell you one thing You can't get what you want, what you want |

Everybody's wasting time
Everybody stands in line Think of Babe Ruth and you think of hot dogs and beer But if he could hit a home run so can you And your weight is just nowhere near Am I making myself quite clear? Is that the best you can do? Go for it, go for it, go for it, go for it If that's the best you can do Get out of my place Take anyone's face Come last in the race, but Go for it, go for it, go for it, go for it, ooh The clock is ticking on the wall Everybody has to take a fall Think of Ray Charles and you think of sunglasses at night But if he can play piano so can you And you can tell black from white Can you tell me that I'm not right? Is that the best you can do? Go for it, go for it, go for it, go for it If that's the best you can do Get out of my life Be anyone's wife And do what you like, but Go for it, go for it, go for it, go for it, ooh Go for it, go for it, go for it, go for it, go for it, go for it, go for it, go for it, go for it, go for it, go for it, go for it Think of Babe Ruth and you think of hot dogs and beer But if he could hit a home run so can you And your weight is just nowhere near Am I making myself quite clear? Is that the best you can do? Go for it, go for it, go for it, go for it, ooh If that's the best you can do Get out of your shell Be anyone's pal Do bad or do well, but Go for it, go for it, go for it, go for it, ooh |

I'm in a movie where boy meets girl
What happens to me in this brave new world? Do I listen to my heart, do I listen to my head? Do I look at what I see, or remember what I read? When I tell you how I feel, do I wonder what I've said? Is there nothing we can do about it? Anyone Anyone can be so hard hearted But everyone Still everybody wants a happy ending It's not so easy, it's '84 now How tough must we be to ask for more now? Do I listen to my head, do I listen to my heart? Do I try to feel the same as I feel when we're apart? Do I think about the end when it's only just the start? Is there nothing we can do about it? Anyone Anyone can be so hard hearted But everyone Still everybody wants a happy ending I get so scared when I see the evidence against our case Each movie so far this year ends up with someone crying Or even someone dying Do I listen to my head, do I listen to my heart? Do I try to feel the same as I feel when we're apart? Do I think about the end when it's only just the start? Is there nothing we can do about it? Anyone Anyone can be so hard hearted But everyone Still everybody wants a happy ending |

Won't you be my number two? Me and number one are through. There won't be too much to do; just smile when I feel blue. And if you got something to say to me, don't try to lay your funny ways on me. I know that it's really not fair of me, but my heart's seen too much action. And ev'ry time I look at you, you'll be who I want you to, and I'll do what I can do to make a dream or two come true, if you be my number two. And there is not much left of me. What you het is what you see; is it worth the energy? I leave it up to you. And if you got something to say to me, don't try to lay your funny ways on me. I know that it's really not fair of me, but my heart's seen too much action. And ev'ry time I look at you, you'll be who I want you to, and I'll do what I can do to make a dream or two come true, if you be my number two |
