Watch another day go drifting over It really doesn't matter anymore 'Long as I keep slipping down my medicine Gonna be a superstar for sure
You are superstar You are star You are superstar The world's alright with me Just for today
The people down on Picton Street already are superstar You can see it subtle in their eyes The music of the traffic is a gentle symphony 'Long as you are by my side
You are superstar You are star You are superstar You know you are You are, you are, you are Star Star Star And the world's alright with me Just for today Oh
Thankyou for the coming up each morning Thankyou for the taking down each night Thankyou for the inside and the outside I thank you from the bottom of my heart From like the bottom of my heart
You are superstar You are star You are superstar You know you are You are, you are, you are Star Star Star Star You are superstar
The very next time that you get me wrongWill be the very last time that I ask you alongI'm just to uptight to be waiting around I've taken more than enough to make up my mind Unemotional - I know A futureless peep show All shimmering but it's empty and slow Since I lost my feeling some time ago 20th century cold- My head's plugged in where the sun don't shineWhere there's no room for anybody else Waging chemical warfare against myself Just to get through the day You see I gotta hurry it away Unacceptable - I know I'm an idiot sideshow I'm .. (blah-blah-blah) And I lost my caring some time ago 20th century cold-My heart still beats but I'm cold Don't you feel it Don't you feel it As you breathe it Don't you believe it Don't you see it Can't you feel it Can't you feel it's coldIt's coldApproaching Catatonia It's a quarter to three I see myself reflected In the television screen Somewhere very far away I can hear myself scream And I get that same old feeling Get that same old feeling Get that same old feeling-20th century cold
Shut up You're way down boring All you got are modern stories All about the money rolling And your crank possession holdings Back off You don't know me I don't care for modern talking You just don't wanna buy me baby And I think you're a cockroach for trying
* Someday Someday soon Life's gonna catch up On you Someday soon
** Someday Someday soon It's all gonna crash down On you Someday soon But your money won't see you through
*** Gonna lose it all Gonna lose it all It's coming soon Someday soon
Hands off You don't impress me Neither do your jewels undress me Or your car to drive me home As your diamond studded clown Back off You don't get me Neither does your gold possess me You just don't wanna buy me baby Take me around on a lead
* Repeat
** Repeat
*** Repeat
You're gonna lose it all Gonna lose it all It's coming soon Someday soon
* God is looking down upon the shivering ones Shooting up down on the Wellington Road And reaching out for their arms But we don't wanna know Down on the Wellington Road Where all tomorrow's peace of mind Is bought and sold
** Oh but he never gives up on you Oh no he never gives up on you No no he never gives up on you No no he never gives up on you Up on you Up on you Up on you
Life's a little longer on the Wellington Road Grinding teeth down 'til the money goes cold We shake our fists at the sky 'Cos we already know Down on the Wellington road The only saviours left behind Are bought and sold
** Repeat Up on you Up on you Up on you Up on you
* Repeat
* Repeat Up on you Up on you Up on you Up on you
La la la etc.
He don't give up on you He don't give up on you He don't give up on you
I didn't want to write this song Because I love you and you've been my friend so long We were the same when we were young Living it two as one All through the scrapes and all the narrow escapes You pulled me through you made me feel like I was not insane We promised that we'd never change Holding out on the edge
* Today - life's a different story today Sad and yet not sad in a way People never do stay the same And the runaway brothers have had their day
Remember on your wedding day I must admit I had the strangest feeling then Outside the Church - we took some flak Both throwing up round the back But now when we meet up today It don't seem right that we just don't know what to say Not knowing what to do
* Repeat
You've got a job, I understand You've got a wife, I got the band
I never thought I'd write this song I never thought that we could change so much - so long I won't forget you - oh my friend Here's holding out 'til the end
* Repeat
Whatever happened to the runaway brothers? Whatever happened to the runaway brothers?
Rats are in the kitchen scratching Whispering my name and laughing Edging up the hall into my bed Faces on the walls are screaming Drifting out across the ceiling Dropping off and falling in my head All alone They cut the phones But then again There's no-one left to ring There's gonna be no peace 'til the bones break through my skin
Another night in Another night in I shiver within A slow hand-clap begins Another night in Another night in My skeleton is waiting in the wings Of a Skeleton grin Oh no ' Cos I don't know where he stops and I begin
A hundred million bugs are crawling In and out of every opening Up and down and over me all night Looking through my old scrapbook I search in vain for a pleasant memory Tearing out my hair 'til it gets light All alone I'm heard to groan My epitaph "I regret everything" There's gonna be no sleep 'til the bones break through my skin
Another night in Another night in I shiver within A slow hand-clap begins Another night in Another night in My skeleton is eager in the wings Of a Skeleton grin Oh no ' And I don't know where he stops and I begin It's just another night in Another night in I shiver within A slow hand-clap begins Another night in Another night in Woah my skeleton is waiting in the wing Of another night in Just another night in Woah another night in Watching the wildlife drift by on the outside Watching the movement on my bit of sky Watching my face disappear in the mirror All in the name of another night in
Woah another night in Woah another night in Oh no no this skeleton thing Feeling the pain of another night in
