You think we look pretty good together
You think my shoes are made of leather But I'm a substitute for another guy I look pretty tall but my heels are high The simple things you see are all complicated I look pretty young, but I'm just back-dated, yeah Substitute your lies for fact I can see right through your plastic mac I look all white, but my dad was black My fine looking suit is really made out of sack I was born with a plastic spoon in my mouth The north side of my town faced east, and the east was facing south And now you dare to look me in the eye Those crocodile tears are what you cry It's a genuine problem, you won't try To work it out at all you just pass it by, pass it by Substitute me for him Substitute my coke for gin Substitute you for my mum At least I'll get my washing done |

There's nothing in the way I walk that could tell you where I'm going,
There's nothing in the words I speak that can betray anything I'm knowing, Don't think about the way I dress, you can fit me on a labelled shelf, Don't pretend that you know me 'cause I don't even know myself, Ooh I don't know myself. I don't mind if you try once in a while, I don't mind if I cry once in a while, The doors aren't shut as tight as they might seem, I'm just trying to fight my way out of this dream. Don't listen to the words I say, weighing up if I'm enlightened, Don't shiver as you pass me by, 'cause mister I'm the one who's frightened, The police just came and left, they wanted me and no one else, Don't pretend that you know me 'cause I don't even know myself, I said I don't know myself. I don't mind if you try once in a while, I don't mind if I cry once in a while, The doors aren't shut as tight as they might seem, I'm just trying to fight my way out of this dream. Do you remember me, I don't remember you, Do you still love me, you know I think you do, I have been gone, and some prison warder knows my scream, I'm just trying to fight my way out of this dream. There's only five who know my real name, And my mother don't believe they know it, What she called me is the way I'm staying, And no one'll ever know it, Come on all of you big boys, come on all of you elves, Don't pretend that you know me 'cause I don't even know myself, I said I don't know myself. I don't mind if you try once in a while, And I don't mind if I cry once in a while. |

Happy Jack wasn't old, but he was a man.
He lived in the sand at the Isle of Man. The kids would all sing, he would take the wrong key, So they rode on ahead on their furry donkey. The kids couldn't hurt Jack, They tried, tried, tried. They dropped things on his back, They lied, lied, lied, lied, lied. But they couldn't stop Jack, 'or the waters lapping, And they couldn't prevent Jack from being happy. But they couldn't stop Jack, 'or the waters lapping, And they couldn't prevent Jack from being happy. The kids couldn't hurt Jack, They tried, tried, tried. They dropped things on his back They lied, lied, lied, lied, lied. But they couldn't stop Jack, 'or the waters lapping. And they couldn't prevent Jack from being happy. (I saw ya!) |

Local Lad:
Ever since I was a young boy, I've played the silver ball. )From Soho down to Brighton I must have played them all. But I ain't seen nothing like him In any amusement hall... That deaf dumb and blind kid Sure plays a mean pin ball ! He stands like a statue, Becomes part of the machine. Feeling all the bumpers Always playing clean. He plays by intuition, The digit counters fall. That deaf dumb and blind kid Sure plays a mean pin ball ! He's a pin ball wizard There has got to be a twist. A pin ball wizard, S'got such a supple wrist. 'How do you think he does it? I don't know! What makes him so good?' He ain't got no distractions Can't hear those buzzers and bells, Don't see lights a flashin' Plays by sense of smell. Always has a replay, 'n' never tilts at all... That deaf dumb and blind kid Sure plays a mean pin ball. I thought I was The Bally table king. But I just handed My pin ball crown to him. Even my usual table He can beat my best. His disciples lead him in And he just does the rest. He's got crazy flipper fingers Never seen him fall... That deaf dumb and blind kind Sure plays a mean pin ball.!!!!! |

I'M FREE- I'm free, And freedom tastes of reality, I'm free-I'm free, AN' I'm waiting for you to follow me. If I told you what it takes to reach the highest high, You'd laugh and say 'nothing's that simple' But you've been told many times before Messiahs pointed to the door And no one had the guts to leave the temple! I'm free-I'm free And freedom tastes of reality I'm free-I'm free And I'm waiting for you to follow me. [Chorus:] How can we follow? How can we follow? |

We'll be fighting in the streets
with our children at our feet. And the moral that they worship will be gone and the man who spurred us on sit in judgement of all wrong they decide and the shotgun sings the song. I'll tip my hat to the new constitution take a bow for the new revolution. Smile and grin at the change all around take up my guitar and play just like yesterday and I'll get on my knees and pray. We don't get fooled again oh no I'll move myself and my fam'ly aside if we happen to be left half alive. I'll get all my papers and smile at the sky thought I know that the hypnotized never lie. There's nothing in the streets looks any different to me. and the slogans are defaced by the by. And the parting of the left is no a parting of the right. And the beards have always grown longer over night. I'll tip my hat... Won't get fooled again. Won't get fooled again. |

It's all behind me I should have known it She tried to find me Our love is over They're all ahead now I've got to learn it I've got to sing out I'll sing my song to the wide open spaces I'll sing my heart out to the infinite sea I'll sing my visions to the sky high mountains I'll sing my song to the free, to the free I'll sing my song to the wide open spaces I'll sing my heart out to the infinite sea I'll sing my visions to the sky high mountains I'll sing my song to the free, to the free When I walked in through the door Thought it was me I was looking for She was the first song I ever sang But it stopped as soon as it began Our love is over It's all behind me They're all ahead now Can't hope to find me This song is over I'm left with only tears I must remember Even if it takes a million years The song is over The song is over Searchin' for a note, pure and easy Playing so free, like a breath rippling by |

No one knows what it's like
To be the bad man To be the sad man Behind blue eyes No one knows what it's like To be hated To be fated To telling only lies But my dreams They aren't as empty As my conscience seems to be I have hours, only lonely My love is vengeance That's never free No one knows what it's like To feel these feelings Like I do And I blame you No one bites back as hard On their anger None of my pain and woe Can show through But my dreams They aren't as empty As my conscience seems to be I have hours, only lonely My love is vengeance That's never free When my fist clenches, crack it open Before I use it and lose my cool When I smile, tell me some bad news Before I laugh and act like a fool And if I swallow anything evil Put your finger down my throat And if I shiver, please give me a blanket Keep me warm, let me wear your coat No one knows what it's like To be the bad man To be the sad man Behind blue eyes |

We'll be fighting in the streets With our children at our feet And the morals that they worship will be gone And the men who spurred us on Sit in judgement of all wrong They decide and the shotgun sings the song I'll tip my hat to the new constitution Take a bow for the new revolution Smile and grin at the change all around Pick up my guitar and play Just like yesterday Then I'll get on my knees and pray We don't get fooled again The change, it had to come We knew it all along We were liberated from the foe, that's all And the world looks just the same And history ain't changed 'Cause the banners, they'd all flown in the last war I'll tip my hat to the new constitution Take a bow for the new revolution Smile and grin at the change all around Pick up my guitar and play Just like yesterday Then I'll get on my knees and pray We don't get fooled again No, no! I'll move myself and my family aside If we happen to be left half alive I'll get all my papers and smile at the sky For I know that the hypnotized never lie Do ya? Yeaaaaaaaaaaaaaa! There's nothing in the street Looks any different to me And the slogans are out-phased, by-the-bye And the party on the left Is now party on the right And their beards have all grown longer overnight I'll tip my hat to the new constitution Take a bow for the new revolution Smile and grin at the change all around Pick up my guitar and play Just like yesterday Then I'll get on my knees and pray We don't get fooled again Don't get fooled again No, no! Yeaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaah! Meet the new boss Same as the old boss |

I looked under chairs
I looked under tables I try to find the key To fifty million fables They call me the seeker I've been searchin' low and high I won't get to get what I'm after Till the day I die I asked Bobby Dylan I asked the Beatles I asked Timothy Leary But he couldn't help me either They call me the seeker I've been searchin' low and high I won't get to get what I'm after Till the day I die People tend to hate me Cause I never smile As I ransack their homes they wanna shake my hand Focusin' on nowhere Investigatin' miles I'm a seeker I'm a really desperate man I won't get to get what I'm after Till the day I die I learned how to raise my voice in anger Yeah but look at my face, ain't this a smile I'm happy when life's good, and when it's bad I cry I got values but I don't know how or why I'm lookin' for me You're lookin' for you We're lookin' at each other and we don't know what to do They call me the seeker I've been searchin' low and high I won't get to get what I'm after Till the day I die |

When you hear this sound a-comin'
Hear the drummer drumming Won't you join together with the band We don't move in any 'ticular direction And we don't make no collections Won't you join together with the band. Do you really think I care What you eat or what you wear Won't you join together with the band There's a million ways to laugh Ev'ry one's a path Won't you join together with the band. Everybody join together Won't you join together Come on and join together with the band We need to join together Won't you join together Come on and join together with the band. You don't have to play You can follow or lead the way Won't you join together with the band We don't know where we're going But the season's right for knowing Won't you join together with the band. It's the singer not the song That makes the music move along Won't you join together with the band This is the biggest band you'll find It's as deep as it is wide Won't you join together with the band. Ev'rybody join together ... etc. |

I went back to the doctor
To get another shrink. I sit and tell him about my weekend, But he never betrays what he thinks. Can you see the real me, doctor? I went back to my mother I said, "I'm crazy ma, help me." She said, "I know how it feels son, 'Cause it runs in the family." Can you see the real me, mother? The cracks between the paving stones Look like rivers of flowing veins. Strange people who know me Peeping from behind every window pane. The girl I used to love Lives in this yellow house. Yesterday she passed me by, She doesn't want to know me now. Can you see the real me, can you? I ended up with the preacher, Full of lies and hate, I seemed to scare him a little So he showed me to the golden gate. Can you see the real me preacher? Can you see the real me doctor? Can you see the real me mother? Can you see the real me? |

why should I care?
Girls of fifteen Sexually knowing The ushers are sniffing Eau-de-cologning The seats are seductive Celibate sitting Pretty girls digging Prettier women Magically bored On a quiet street corner Free frustration In our minds and our toes Quiet stormwater M-m-my generation Uppers and downers Either way blood flows Inside outside Leave me alone Inside outside Nowhere is home Inside outside, Where have I been? Out of my brain on the five fifteen On a raft in the quarry Slowly sinking On the back of a lorry Holy hitching Dreadfully sorry Apple scrumping Born in the war Birthday punching He man drag In the glittering ballroom Gravely outrageous In my high heel shoes Tightly undone They know what they′re showing Sadly ecstatic That their heroes are news Why should I care? |

The beach is a place where a man can feel He's the only soul in the world that's real, Well I see a face coming through the haze, I remember him from those crazy days. Ain't you the guy who used to set the paces Riding up in front of a hundred faces, I don't suppose you would remember me, But I used to follow you back in '63. I've got a good job And I'm newly born. You should see me dressed up in my uniform. I work in hotel, all gilt and flash. Remember the place where the doors were smashed? Bell Boy! I got to keep running now. Bell Boy! Keep my lip buttoned down. Bell Boy! Carry this baggage out. Bell Boy! Always running at someone's heel. You know how I feel, always running at someone's heel. Some nights I still sleep on the beach. Remember when stars were in reach. Then I wander in early to work, Spend the day licking boots for my perks. A beach is a place where a man can feel [etc.] People often change But when I look in your eyes, You could learn a lot from A job like mine. The secret to me Isn't flown like a flag I carry it behind This little badge What says... Bell Boy! |

Only love
Can make it rain The way the beach Is kissed by the sea Only love Can make it rain Like the sweat of lovers Layin' in the fields Love Reign o'er me Love Reign o'er me Rain on me Rain on me Only love Can bring the rain That makes you yearn To the sky Only love Can bring the rain That falls like tears From all high Love Reign o'er me Rain on me Rain on me Love Reign o'er me Rain on me Rain on me On the dry and dusty road The nights we spent apart alone I need to get back home To cool cool rain I can't sleep and I lay and I think The night is hot and black as ink Woo Oh God I need a drink Of cool cool rain Love Reign o'er me Rain over me Over me Over me Love Reign o'er me On me Love ... |

Down at the Astoria the scene was changing
Bingo and rock were pushing out x-rating We were the first band to vomit at the bar And find the distance to the stage too far Meanwhile it's getting late at ten o'-clock Rock is dead they say Long live rock Long live rock! I need it every night Long live rock! Come on and join the line Long live rock! Be it dead or alive People walk in sideways pretending that they're leaving We put on our makeup and work out all the lead-ins Jack is in the alley selling tickets made in Hong Kong Promoter's in the pay box wondering where the band's gone Back in the pub the governor stops the clock Rock is dead they say Long live rock Long live rock! I need it every night Long live rock! Come on and join the line Long live rock! Be it dead or alive Landslide, rocks are falling, falling down upon our very heads We tried but you were yawning. Look again Rock is dead Rock is dead Rock is dead The place is really jumping to the high watt amps 'Til a twenty inch cymbal fell and cut the lamps In the blackout they danced right into the aisle And as the doors fly open even the promoter smiles Someone takes his pants off and the rafters knock Rock is dead they say Long live rock Long live rock! I need it every night Long live rock! Come on and join the line Long live rock! Be it dead or alive |

Take a little dope
And walk out in the air The stars are all connected To the brain Find me a woman and lay down on the ground Her pleasure comes fallin' down like rain Get myself a car I feel power as I fly Whoa, now I'm really in control {Chorus:} It all looks fine To the naked eye! But it don't really happen that way at all! Don't happen that way at all! You sign your own name And I'll sign mine They're both the same We still get separate rooms You can cover up your guts But when you cover up your nuts You're admittin' that there must be something wrong Press any button Milk and honey flow The world begins behind your neighbor's wall [Chorus} You hold the gun And I hold the wound And we stand lookin' in each other's eyes {Chorus} ------------- Lyrics Powered by LyricFind Written By CUNNIFF, JILL <i>Lyrics © EMI Music Publishing</i> |

Mama's got a squeeze box she wears on her chest
And when Daddy comes home he never gets no rest Cause she's playin' all night And the music's all right Mama's got a squeeze box Daddy never sleeps at night Well the kids don't eat And the dog can't sleep There's no escape from the music In the whole damn street Cause she's playin' all night And the music's all right Mama's got a squeeze box Daddy never sleeps at night She goes in and out and in and out and in and out and in and out She's playin' all night And the music's all right Mama's got a squeeze box Daddy never sleeps at night She goes squeeze me Come on and squeeze me Come on and tease me like you do I'm so in love with you Mama's got a squeeze box Daddy never sleeps at night She goes in and out and in and out and in and out and in and out Cause she's playin' all night And the music's all right Mama's got a squeeze box Daddy never sleeps at night |

In jeopardy Murdered in cold blood is what I'm gonna be I ain't been home since Friday night and now my wife Is comin' after me Give me police protection Gonna buy a gun so I can look after number one Give me a bodyguard a black belt judo expert With a machine gun Gonna buy a tank and an aeroplane When she catches up with me won't be no time to explain She thinks I've been with another woman and that's enough To send her half insane Gonna buy a fast car Put on my lead boots And take a long long drive I may end up spendin' all my money But I'll still be alive All I did was have a bit too much to drink And I picked the wrong precinct Got picked up by the law and now I ain't got time to think Gonna buy a tank and an aeroplane When she catches up with me won't be no time to explain She thinks I've been with another woman and that's enough To send her half insane Gonna buy a fast car Put on my lead boots And take a long long drive I may end up spendin' all my money But I'll still be alive And I'm oh so tired of running Gonna lay down on the floor I gotta rest some time so I can get to run some more Yeah She's comin' She's comin' She's comin' She's comin' She's comin' She's comin' She's comin' |

Who are you?
Who who who who? Who are you? Who who who who? Who are you? Who who who who? Who are you? Who who who who? I woke up in a Soho doorway A policeman knew my name He said ″You can go sleep at home tonight If you can get up and walk away″ I staggered back to the underground And the breeze blew back my hair I remember throwin′ punches around And preachin′ from my chair chorus: Well, who are you? (Who are you? Who who who who?) I really wanna know (Who are you? Who who who who?) Tell me, who are you? (Who are you? Who who who who?) ′Cause I really wanna know (Who are you? Who who who who?) I took the tube back out of town Back to the Rollin′ Pin I felt a little like a dying clown With a streak of Rin Tin Tin I stretched back and I hiccupped And looked back on my busy day Eleven hours in the Tin Pan God, there′s got to be another way Who are you? Ooh wa ooh wa ooh wa ooh wa.. Who are you? Who who who who? Who are you? Who who who who? Who are you? Who who who who? Who are you? Who who who who? (chorus) I know there′s a place you walked Where love falls from the trees My heart is like a broken cup I only feel right on my knees I spit out like a sewer hole Yet still recieve your kiss How can I measure up to anyone now After such a love as this? Who are you? Who, who, who, who? Who are you? Who, who, who, who? Who are you? Who, who, who, who? Who are you? Who, who, who, who?

As I walked through that hospital door
I was sewn up like a coat I got a smile from the bite of the wind Watched the fresh fall of snow I knew then that my life took a turn I felt strong and secure And with adhesive tape over my nose I felt almost demure Goodbye Sister Disco With your flashing trash lamps Goodbye Sister Disco And to your clubs and your tramps Goodbye Sister Disco My dancing's left you behind Goodbye, now you're solo Black plastic; deaf, dumb and blind Bye, goodbye Sister Disco, Now I go I go where the music where the music fits my soul And I, I will never let go, I'll never let go 'Til the echo of the street fight has dissolved I will choose nightmares and cold stormy seas I will take over your grief and disease I'll stay beside you and comfort your soul When you are lonely and broken and old Now I walk with a man in my face Ooh, a woman in my hair I've got you all lookin' out though my eyes My feet are a prayer Goodbye Sister Disco With your flashing trash lamps Goodbye Sister Disco And to your clubs and your tramps Goodbye Sister Disco My dancing's left you behind Goodbye, now you're solo Black plastic; deaf, dumb and blind |

I call you on the telephone my voice too rough with cigarettes. I sometimes thing I should just go home but I'm dealing with a memory that never forgets I love to hear you say my name especially when you say yes I got your body right now on my mind and I drunk myself b-lind to the sound of old T-Rex To the sound of old T-Rex - who's next? [Chorus:] When I say I love you you say you better You better you better you bet When I say I need you you say you better You better you better you bet You better bet your life Or love will cut you like a knife I want those feeble minded axes overthrown I'm not into your passport picture I just like your nose You welcome me with open arms and open legs I know only fools have needs but this one never begs I don't really mind how much you love me A little is really alright When you say come over and spend the night Tonight [Chorus: (as above)] I lay on the bed with you We could make some book of records Your dog keeps licking my nose And chewing up all those letters Saying "you better" You better bet your life You better love me, all the time now You better shove me back into line now You better love me, all the time now You better shove me back into line now. I showed up late one night with a neon light for a visa But knowing I'm so eager to fight can't make letting me in any easier I know tha~t I been wearing crazy clothes and I look pretty crappy Sometime But my body feels so good and I still sing a razor line everytime. And when it comes to all night living I know what I'm giving I've got it all down to a t |

The 1 shines
And people forget The spray flies as the speedboat glides And people forget Forget they're hiding The girls smile And people forget The snow packs as the skier tracks And people forget Forget they're hiding. Behind an eminence front Eminence front - It's a put on. Come on join the party Dress to kill Won't you come and join the party Dress to kill. The drinks flow People forget That big wheel spins, the hair thins People forget Forget they're hiding The news slows People forget The shares crash, hopes are dashed People forget Forget they're hiding. Behind an eminence front Eminence front - it's a put on Come on join the party Dress to Come on join the party Dress to Come on join the party Dress to Come on join the party Dress to kill Dress yourself, dressed to kill. |
