Vandals in ermine
Rip city skylines Dodge truth and virtue With slick city bylines A paragon of virtue Until they hurt you In power and in status We know they hate us So where is the heaven And where is there love? Where the hell is the heaven? That you're so proud of Power is preaching The virtues of poverty Poor are left feeding On cruel comedy...sad laughter Rescue us all now From fumes that choke us Shift then these sad lives Into sweet focus So where is the heaven And where is there love? Where the hell is the heaven? That you're so proud of Prestige it sits high On mammons alter Porsche hungry pinheads On champagne and oysters Head full of hollow thoughts Handful of sushi Plug into dallas babe Plug into dynasty So where is the heaven And where is there love? Where the hell is the heaven? That you're so proud of Now I am loving Where once I was hating Leading a good life Stopped paging satan Played devils advocate So many times Lived in the shadows But the sun will shine. shine. shine So where is the heaven And where is there love? Where the hell is the heaven? That you're so proud of Where is the kingdom? You say we squander? Where the hell is the heaven? Must we wait much longer? |

Debonair lullabies
In melodies revealed In deep despair on lonely nights He knows just how you feel The slyest rhymes, the sharpest suits In miracles made real Like a bird in flight on a hot sweet night You know you're right just to hold her tight He soothes it right, makes it out of sight And everything's good in the world tonight When Smokey sings, I hear violins When Smokey sings, I forget everything As she's packing her things As she's spreading her wings The front door might slam But the back door it rings And Smokey sings, he sings Elegance in eloquence For sale or rent or hire Should I say yes and match his best Then I would be a liar Symphonies that soothe the rage When lovers' hearts catch fire Like a bird in flight on a hot sweet night You know you're right just to hold her tight He soothes it right, makes it out of sight And everything's good in the world tonight When Smokey sings, I hear violins When Smokey sings, I forget everything As she's packing her things As she's spreading her wings Smashing the hell With the heaven she brings Then Smokey sings, he sings (Would it be true to say) Luther croons Sly's the original originator James screams Marvin was the only innovator But nothing can compare Nothing can compare When Smokey sings When Smokey sings, I hear violins When Smokey sings, I forget everything As she's packing her things As she's spreading her wings She threw back the ring When Smokey sings Smokey sings Smokey sings |

When the postman don't call on Valentine's day
And Santa Claus don't come on a Christmas Day That umbrella won't work on a rainy day Don't ask me, I already know When they find you beached on the barrier reef And the only pleasure treasured is in map relief The choice is yours, sure, saint or thief Don't ask me I already know When they baked your cake in little slices, Kept your eyes on rising prices, Wound up winning booby prizes; I'm sure you'd like to think you know what life is Find destiny through magazines Liplicking, unzipping Harpers and Queens From here to eternity, Without in-betweens, Don't ask me, I already know With your heart on parade and your heart on parole I hope you find a sucker to buy that mink stole School for scandal, Guess who's enrolled? So ask me, I already know When they find you beached on the barrier reef When the postman don't call on Valentine's Day When the only pleasure treasured is in map relief When you don't tell the truth, that's the price you pay When I'm shaking a hand, I'm clenching a fist If you gave me a pound for the moments I missed And I got dancing lessons for all the lips I shoulda kissed I'd be a millionaire I'd be a Fred Astaire |

There's a gang I've just joined
There's a gang I've just joined Three million strong you'd agree Four million strong you'd agree Enrollment was easy, so easy Getting out proves to be the difficulty From land's end to john o'groats From land's end to john o'groats They are making ends meet Mending holes in their coat Fasting and feasting on bread and margarine Burning dreams build upon buried hopes United kingdom - you'd better ring them You've a solution - you better bring them United kingdom - united kingdom You've a solution - you better bring them Opportunity, I guess they all came and went Finding it hard Finding the rent you'll find it funny With your finger running down Situations vacant In school he was an athlete Now he's not so self-assured "after all of these o-levels is this my reward? " There's a silent majority, that's seen and Never heard from charles i, charles ii To charles iii United kingdom - you'd better ring them You've a solution - you better bring them United kingdom - united kingdom This busted, rusted, upper-crusted Bankrupted done and dusted No-man-to-be-trusted united kingdom Proud to stand beneath the union jack? Happy dealing up a no ace pack? Polishing black boots Priming the riot squad There go I but for the grace of god Covering up the agony with mindless entertainment You'll be happy when they're ripping up the pavement Bringing down the axe on steelworks and foundries Someone said love knows no boundaries Close your eyes and think of england Lie back and think of her United kingdom - you better ring them You've a solution - you better bring them |

I think you'd got it wrong Did you think our love was sacred Well it's much too over-rated Think again... you're wrong And our love's a precious memory Better look what heaven sent me Think again you're wrong I'll admit to being confused And I'm used to being used Think again... you're wrong So wrong... so wrong... so wrong Think again... think again... think!

From an early age
I was taught to respect That a broken heart girl Ain't a thing you collect Close your eyes and say Nothing lasts a day You're wasting my time Yet I love to love you Close your eyes and say Honour love obey You're wasting my time Yet I love to love you. It's cold outside - The night love died On the night you murdered love It's cold outside - The night love died On the night you murdered love. January...February...March and April May June July sees you go by I see love walk away. Didn't use a blade... A bullet or a gun You poisoned the moonlight When you put out the Sun It's cold outside - The night love died On the night you murdered love |

So here we are for all we know But then again we know For all we know, you know, you know With all the power that I possess Let's match their money with our own finesse Why should we ever have to settle for less? Why does this message always have to be... S.O.S. S.O.S. S.O.S. One cool million for one cool caress So here we are still drifting on an open sea So here we are for all we know But then again we know For all we know, you know, you know With all the power that I possess Let's match their money with our own finesse Why should we ever have to settle for less? Why does this message always have to be... S.O.S. S.O.S. S.O.S. One cool million for one so possessed |

Was it rage or regret
Or the love I was feeling In this age - who's perfect... are you? Wasn't made to forget This moment worth stealing Was it rage or regret or the two Every morning when I wake up Wake up dreaming then... wake up dreaming Build a temple from you fragrance Build a chapel in your heart Do you really understand Do you feel the need to try Do you even care for me Do you ever wonder why Rage and then regret 'Bout as real as real can get Rage and then regret Through the violence the angry silence Does our love grow strong or die A parachute or a pilot's licence Do we fall in love or fly Do you really understand Do you feel the need to try Do you even care for me Do you ever wonder why Rage and then regret 'Bout as real as real can get Rage and then regret The harder we come The harder we fall The harder it is to stand tall The more that we fight The more that we brawl The more we're alike - that's all... that's all Rage and then regret 'Bout as real as real can get Rage and then regret Rage and then regret 'Bout as real as real can get There are things you don't forget Anger cools to idle threats |

My pride my joy
My chance to taste happiness My girl my boy Take me to the place I love best All night I'll pray I'll sing it like a symphony Teach me each day Simple things in life are free Be my, be my, be my Arc of divinity Be my, be my, be my Peace and tranquility I find my smile With you another sinewy It drives me wild I'm thankful for the world you give me Much more than gold More than jewels in Tiffany's Once more I'm told Simple things in life are free Be my, be my, be my Arc of divinity Be my, be my, be my Peace and tranquility Be my, be my, be my Peace in this world |

One day you'll realise Feel me materialise You'll see you're just a fool to leave me One day... one day... one day soon baby Hardly a day goes by without me thinking of you No matter how hard I try you can't escape a dream Living my life - in the lap of luxury Living my life - confuse me... confuse me babee One day you'll realise You'll see it on her eyes No room for compromise - one day... one day... One day you'll realise Feel me materialise You'll see you're just a fool to leave me You can't shake a dream - how I wish that you could One day you're mine get that understood Until then each night I shall pray For a love that lasts forever and...

On Sunset Boulevard Much harder still In Notting Hill A northwind blows And carries me home Carries my heart, carries my soul When cool silks they turn to suede When young dreams are torn and frayed The South feels so cold and grey Today! Today the North's too many miles away Today! Today I got to get away I'm driving north I'm heading home I'm driving back To the place I once belonged It's all gone silent The light begins to fade One man unplugs The penny arcade And carries me home Carries my heart, carries my soul I'm driving north I'm heading home I'm driving back To the place I once belonged One sweet bouquet The flowers strewn The petals scattered Here in the North No dreams are shattered I'm driving north I'm heading home I'm driving back To the place I once belonged No we don't feel angry No we don't feel betrayed Unlike our fathers We don't remember better days No we don't feel angry No we don't feel betrayed We just live In this day and age |

Never more than now Never more than now Paralysed by vicious lies Never felt this way before Seen hope die and grown men cry Never felt like this before Shed lonely tears and heartfelt fears Now I feel love Never. Never. Never more than now Never. Never. Never more than now A thing of beauty Lasts forever Stretches through all time Every endeavour No matter how hard They might try To build you up And to bleed you dry Never lose love. Never Never lose love. Never Ever, ever, ever Never. Never. Never more than now Never. Never. Never more than now |

When I accepted this job
I was resigned to my fate When I got there early She'd arrive late You can say she's gone forever Or just sit tight and wait She said I was unprincipled That I was not the first Like the Phoenix coming back From the ashes, uh-huh I know what's good, But I know what trash is In the head-lights, In the highlights of her hair... Hit the head lines But she's not there: Many happy returns Many happy returns These are the lessons I could have learned Return. Many happy returns And these are the letters I should have burned Okay, I'm sad, not blue Okay, remember All that matters to me now Is the message I sent her Like the world, spinning 'round On its axis, uh-huh I know democracy But I know what's fascist When she's gone, all I got to learn Is the law of diminishing return When she's here, one thing I've found Things get better second time around Many happy returns Many happy returns These are the lessons I could have learned Return. Many happy returns And these are the letters I should have burned Okay I'm sad, not blue Okay, remember All that matters to me now Is the message I sent her Now she's gone, she's gone away Now she's gone forget her Coming back another day If you'd only let her Now she's gone, she's gone away But she's gone forget her Coming back another day So why resurrect her? Many happy returns Many happy returns These are the lessons I could have learned Return. Many happy returns And these are the letters I should have burned |

Love's a dangerous language
Survey the damage See what love has done Oh, my precious darling my sacred angel Look what we've done Oh, you're scared and frightened Don't be afraid yes We'll take your problem wheel Drive it slowly to a shallow grave So in those special moments That might make you think you were happy then Moving blue through pink but you're happy now And you think you'll sink The buckle is tied for a white knuckle ride When the buckle is tied Then the judgements denied Oh, my own she vixen we're sworn to secrecy, this crime is ours Yeah, so quench your thirst And when I'm hungry I'll eat my words So in those special moments That might make you think you're happy now Moving blue through pink you were happy then But you think you'll sink The buckle is tied for a white knuckle ride When the buckle is tied, Then the judgements denied wherever we go Wherever we hide In the white of your eyes I see the feelings just died |
