You go down the pub
You wear make up And old dads trousers Why don't you tidy up You talk like a docker but you act like a queer You drink champagne then complain it's too dear You try so hard not to follow any trends Then you cry in your beer and say you've got no friends But is it any wonder that you've got no friends But it's not the make up Or the way you dress It's not your appearance, that they all detest It's not your manners, that you gotta improve ooooo--it's your attitude. Chorus Attitude, Oo Oo Oo Your attitude Attitude, Oo Oo Oo Your attitude Take off your head phones Hear what's going on You can't live in a time zone You've gotta move on But before you get there There's one thing you've gotta do Oh change your attitude It's your attitude It's your attitude Chorus Attitude, Oo Oo Oo Your attitude Attitude, Oo Oo Oo Your attitude The '80s are here, I know cuz I'm staring right at them But you're still waiting for 1960 to happen You might have the illness, but you've got the cure You've got the answer, you will endure You're the only person that's gonna pull you through Ooh, with your attitude Chorus Attitude, Oo Oo Oo Your attitude Attitude, Oo Oo Oo Your attitude You gotta learn to be positive, it's your only chance You mustn't be so defensive, you gotta join in the dance But it isn't your dancing that you've gotta improve Ooh, it's your attitude. Chorus Attitude, Oo Oo Oo Your attitude Attitude, Oo Oo Oo Your attitude It's all the music It's all in your brain You've used all the old licks Now it's all gotta change. Change your attitude It's your attitude Attitude |

Cheap is small and not too steep
But best of all cheap is cheap Circumstance has forced my hand To be a cut price person in a low budget land Times are hard but we'll all survive I just got to learn to economize I'm on a low budget I'm on a low budget I'm not cheap, you understand I'm just a cut price person in a low budget land Excuse my shoes they don't quite fit They're a special offer and they hurt me a bit Even my trousers are giving me pain They were reduced in a sale so I shouldn't complain They squeeze me so tight so I can't take no more They're size 28 but I take 34 I'm on a low budget What did you say I'm on a low budget I thought you said that I'm on a low budget I'm a cut price person in a low budget land I'm shopping at Woolworth and low discount stores I'm dropping my standards so that I can buy more (Quality costs, but quality wastes, So I'm giving up all of my expensive tastes. Caviar and champagne are definite no's, I'm acquiring a taste for brown ale and cod roes ) Low budget sure keeps me on my toes I count every penny and I watch where it goes We're all on our uppers we're all going skint I used to smoke cigars but now I suck polo mints I'm on a low budget What did you say Yea I'm on a low budget I thought you said that I'm on a low budget I'm a cut price person in a low budget land I'm on a low budget Low budget Low budget Art takes time, time is money Money's scarce and that ain't funny Millionaires are things of the past We're in a low budget film where nothing can last Money's rare there's none to be found So don't think I'm tight if I don't buy a round I'm on a low budget What did you say Yes I'm on a low budget I thought you said that I'm on a low budget I'm a cut price person in a low budget land I'm on a low budget Say it again Low budget One more time Low budget (I look like a tramp, but don't write me off, I'll have you all know, I was once a toff At least my hair is all mine, my teeth are my own, But everything else is on permanent loan. Once all my clothes were made by hand, Now I'm a cut price person in a low budget land. I'm on a low budget I'll have you all know We're on a low budget I'm on a low budget) |

In a space allocated to me by the human race
Inhabiting this area until I die this space is occupied I'm in a space leased by kind permission of the human race Close up I am big but far away I'm small and hardly here at all 'Cause in a space out in space We disappear without a trace Now I'm out in inner space And lookin' at the people. standing face to face And filling up the space Men and women boys and girls There are so many people in the world Thinkin' about the world And all the people in it And I'm staring at the stars And into the infinite In a world within a world On a planet that's Driftin' in a space Seconds into minutes and minutes Into hours and hours into days And days into months and months into years And years into decade tens into thousands Thousands into millions, millions into billions Billions into zillions and forever and forever In a space allocated by the human race Somewhere in outer space it's far away and I like it that way Now I'm out in inner space And lookin' at the people, standing face to face And filling up the space Men and women boys and girls There are so many people in the world Thinkin' about the world And all the people in it And I'm staring at the stars And into the infinite In a world within a world On a planet that's Driftin' in a space In a space, in a space, in a space Now I'm out in inner space And lookin' at the people standing face to face And filling up the space On a planet that's Driftin' in a space |

See all the people
With hatred in their eyes I can't help thinking that It's only a disguise Cause underneath that core There's got to be more Than what we realize Maybe they're scared To let the inside out Maybe they're afraid to Show what they're all about So they put on a heavy front and hope that no one else Can work them out So they put on all the heaviness But its only an illusion heaviness Can't you see They're scared to Show a little bit of emotion A little bit of real emotion In case a little bit of emotion Gives them away Look at that lady dancing around with no clothes She'll give you all her body That's if you've got the dough She'll let you see most Anything but there's one thing That she'll never show And that's a little bit of real emotion A little bit of true emotion In case a little bit of emotion Gives her away But it's a shame she's acting that way Somehow she's gotta get through every day And the only way Is not to show one little bit of emotion A little bit of true emotion In case a little bit of emotion gives her away People learn their lines And they act out their part Then they talk on cue But it's got no heart It's all on the surface And it's all contrived They're scared to come out Somehow they've got to survive Look at that looney With a smile on his face He knows no shame And feels no disgrace He's got a look in his eyes That makes it seem that he's from outer space Maybe that looney knows what it's all about He's got something to say But he can't spit it out He's unco-ordinated so we shut him out In case he shows a little bit of emotion A little bit of real emotion We're afraid to see a bit of emotion So we walk away Show a little bit of real emotion Show a little bit of emotion We're afraid to see a bit of emotion So we walk away |

Misery
I know you got troubles but you don't have to spread it about Misery You moan and you groan but all of that I can live without Well Until you stop worrying about yourself You'll never get anywhere with me I'll still be hanging in there but you're still a misery Until you learn to laugh you'll never come to any parties at my house My house And if you go on like this the only house you'll ever visit is the nut house Nut house You're such a misery, why don't you learn to laugh Look in the mirror and Don't take yourself so seriously Well Dollar bills could fall from the sky But still you wouldn't be satisfied But I'm not going to let you depress me Until you learn to laugh you'll never come to any parties at my house My house And if you go on like this the only house you'll ever visit is the nut house Nut house You're such a misery, why don't you learn to laugh Look in the mirror and Don't take yourself so seriously Ah ah ah ah Misery You're only happy when you're feeling totally down Misery I only ever see you when your chin's hanging on the ground Well Until you learn to laugh at yourself You'll never get anywhere with me I'm down but I'm still happy but You're such a misery, well You're such a misery, well You're such a misery |

Life is only a moving picture
Nothing in life is a permanent fixture Oh no oh oh no Black girls, white girls oh what a mixture Looking as pretty as a picture Oh no oh oh no We live, we die no one knows why We come, we go we see the show And it's always moving, always moving Life is only a moving picture Oh, life can sometimes not be very nice But then you make your choice so you must pay the price You take the good and bad 'cos life's all work and play And it soon fades away Oh no oh oh no Life is only what you make out So make the verses rhyme and all the pieces fit There isn't any time to make much sense of it It soon fades away Oh no oh oh no Life is only a moving picture Nothing in life is a permanent fixture Oh no oh oh no We live, we die no one knows why We come, we go we see the show And it's always moving, always moving Look at all those moving pictures Nothing in life is a permanent fixture Oh no oh oh no It's only moving, only moving, only moving pictures |
