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
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
Someday I'm going to smack your face Someday I'm going to smack your face Somebody's going to call your bluff Somebody's going to treat you rough Sometimes there is only one way out I've got to fight
Sometimes I get to feel so mean Sometimes I get to feel so mean Sometimes you look like you're too clean Sometimes I see the in-between Sometimes only one way I've got to fight
You're way past your station Beat you honey till you drop
You're way past your station It's useless asking you to stop I got morbid fascination Beat you honey till you drop
Sometimes you're going to get some stick Sometimes you're going to get some stick Somebody's standing in our way Somebody's gonna have to pay Sometimes there is only one way I've got to fight
She's gone and left me I don't know why That girl she's crazy She made me cry She's gone and left me I don't know why
Yeah she's the queen of the street What a piece of meat
She's real good looking She makes me sigh Blue jeans and leather Her heels are high She's real good looking she makes me sigh
Yeah, she's the queen of the street What a special treat
She's no lady She'll stab you in the back She's no lady She's princess of the pack
With words of fire She'll make you small With eyes that smile She'll make you tall With words of fire She'll make you small But you would rather wait a year till she gave you a call
She's gone and left me I don't know why That girl she's crazy She made me cry She's gone and left me I don't know why But she's queen of the streets what a piece of meat
She's no lady She'll stab you in the back She's no lady She's princess of the pack
Strolling along minding my own business Well there goes a girl and a half She's got me going up and down She's got me going up and down
Walking on the beaches looking at the peaches
Well I got the notion girl that you got some suntan lotion in that bottle of yours Spread it all over my peelin' skin baby That feels real good All this skirt lappin' up the sun Lap me up Why don't you come on and Lap me up
Walking on the beaches looking at the peaches
Well there goes another one just lying down on the sand dunes I'd better go take a swim and see if I can cool down a little bit Cause you and me woman We got a lotta things on our minds (you know what I mean)
Walking on the beaches looking at the peaches
Will you just take a look over there (where?) There Is she tryin' to get outta that clitares? Liberation for women That's what I preach Preacher man
Walking on the beaches looking at the peaches
Oh shit! There goes the charabang Looks like I'm gonna be stuck here the whole summer Well what a bummer I can think of a lot worse places to be Like down in the streets Or down in the sewer Or even on the end of a skewer
I could have read A poem called Ozymandias To her instead
I lived for the moment It was a futile Gesture anyway I was here And she was here
And being broad Of mind and hips We did the only Thing possible
I guess I shouldn't have strangled her to death But I had to go to work and she had laced my coffee with acid
Normally I wouldn't have minded But I'm allergic to sulphuric acid Besides she had acne And if you've got acne well I apologise for disliking it instensely. But it's understandble that ugly people have got complexes I mean it seems to me that ugly people don't have a chance
It's only the children or the fucking wealthy who tend to be good looking
An ugly fart Attracks a good looking Chick, if he's got money
An ugly fart Attracks a good looking Chick if he's got money
An ugly fart Attracks a good looking Chick If he's got money
It's different for Jews somehow I'd like to see A passionate Film between The two ugliest People in the world. When I say ugly I don't mean rough looking I mean hideous
Don't tell me that Aesthetics are Subjective, you Just know the truth When you see it Whatever it is
Muscle Power, muscle Power, muscle Power, muscle Power
