I'm gonna try and steal a car
Drive it off with you somewhere afar I'll start a fire deep inside Find a place where we can hide And as life flashes by You want to know the reasons why I'll be there with words to take you higher One burning desire I'm gonna try to be a light Set the world on fire day and night We start an education here The signs look good no need to fear The other people come and go Why play the scenes they only know I'll be here to help you walk the wire One burning desire one burning desire One burning desire x 4 I want to get inside your head Find your ma and pa and what got said And as we get familiar too Find every scar and small tattoo And as we start to play the game I'll confess and take the blame But you're the one who poured fuel on the fire One burning desire one burning desire one burning desire One burning desire x 4 |

If I could have just one more wish
It would be for a fillet of fish You wouldn't have to take out the bones You could even serve it up on it's own I call it snapper I call it snapper It doesn't come in just one size The taste you just don't realise I prefer it to wellhung game Cos game always ends up smelling the same I call it snapper I call it snapper Take me all over the world Cafes bars restaurants the dishes unfurl If I could be tempted by one sweet little thing I'd have to admit that snapper is king snapper is king or queen So my friend just eat your fill Cos eating can turn into a thrill You know meat can go off so fast That's why I maintain right up to the last Just give me snapper just give me snapper Take me all over the world Cafes bars restaurants the dishes unfurl If I could be tempted by one sweet little thing I'd have to admit that snapper is king snapper is king or queen |

In the middle of the day
When things don't go your way And when life starts to bite And it don't turn out right And your top is spinning round Far along the open ground Then you have to hang on tight Or you'll be blown from sight How does it feel How does it feel How does it feel It takes nerves of steel In the middle of the night If the stars ain't bright And you wonder till the dawn Why you feel so forlorn And you know that you are lost You never count the cost Of all the mistakes you made And all the games you played How does it feel How does it feel How does it feel It takes nerves of steel In the middle of your life When you're staring at the knife And you're near the cutting edge Close enough to make a wedge But you know it ain't enough Even though you hate the stuff It's a sweet and bitter pill But after all it's only real How does it feel How does it feel How does it feel It takes nerves of steel |

When we met I thought that you'd take off and try to fly
Then a man with giant lips began to catch your eye You were caught on a hook It was straight from a book Didn't listen to advice and started telling tales On the runway low on gas your engine starts to fail If you tried you could win Extra time take a spin Hot head I hear you're coming through Your ears are burning that's nothing new Hot head you're wearing no parachute! Knowing one or two up in the blue prepared me good First of all my favourite pilot in my neighbourhood Still in flight with her man Riding high understand Hot head I hear you're coming through Your ears are burning that's nothing new Hot head you're wearing no parachute! |

There's a man holding onto a baby and it's screaming out your name
There's one or two uptight women on this brand new plane Been held up in the frost in Moscow and I'm getting out fast Been deiced from my tail to my mast Five miles high and heading for you x 2 It seems that the longer you go for the crazier I get it always seems to happen and I've not been wrong yet My tank is overfull and my course has been set It's what you could call a maiden flight with no safety net Five miles high and heading for you x 2 I'm up front surrounded by the chinese eyes But I'm holding out until I feel the thunder thighs First thing I get to do when I get to see to your lively mind Is get upstairs in the hirise horse race and I'll be betting blind Five miles high x 3 Heading for you Getting more exotic every minute that we fly east Feeling kinda seasick at the very least There's lots of water flowed by since you've been gone There ain't no-one to touch you know where you belong Five miles high and heading for you x 2 |

Keeping out of trouble
Moving on the double Got a feeling that this tunnels got an ending soon Feel like I've been hanging on a lead balloon Standing to attention Sitting by the engine Got to get a uniform to go with the good news Better even buy some brand new shoes I just got off a long gone dead train I've been seeing double Slipping in the rubble Got a ticket left to use and I'm not wasting it I like life and I like tasting it I just got off a long gone dead train I just got off a long gone dead train Sometimes you're gonna have to get lost Sometimes the dice are already tossed Don't worry there's no hurry Somedays there's some love to be found Some nights you gotta sleep on the ground Don't worry there's no hurry I just got off a long gone dead train I just got off a long gone dead train I just got off a long gone dead train Find a little lady Someone who says maybe Get some loving for yourself and get it right away Just make sure you suffer no delay I just got off a long gone dead train |

One step forwards two steps backwards
That's the dance I want to learn if I could master it and put a little style in it I'll have some fun when it's my turn Gable and Monroe in the garden In the desert getting well Eli and Thelma in the DC It wasn't easy you can tell It's just a step away Please will you show us how to live It's just a step away When you got nothing left to give Seven horses not enough to Even fill the tank with gas Monty's outside he wasn't inside But he knows all things must pass Bucking broncos we're all cowboys Hanging from another age Getting sauced that's just how the film goes It's gotta be better than a wage It's just a step away Please will you show us how to live It's just a step away When you got nothing left to give |

A dirty broom an empty room you'll never find a better tomb
The passing of a lasting chill a night a day and time stands still The walls just stand their stories cold they watch a history unfold The sink is dry the fat don't fry and still the reasons pass you by When will the troubled soul descend and make amends? When will some laughter come alive? And walk inside walk inside walk inside A house of sorrow is a halfway house A house of sorrow is a halfway house The doors don't shut the pipes just froze the roof is cracked without a cause You feel the sadness everywhere you hear a creaking on the stair And just to liven up your day the spirit walks decides to stay She wakes inside your living room and suffocates you with her gloom When will the troubled soul descend and make amends? When will some laughter come alive And walk inside A house of sorrow is a halfway house A house of sorrow is a halfway house |
