You see the mist above the water Blinding all that's there to see You fell in love with natures daughter Or the idea you see So many moments were made there A chance to stay perhaps to flee But when you've taken what you wanted There was nothing left to see
She said she'd wait for you As you closed her eyes
All the things weve said and done They're not enough so run child run Oh run child run
And who alone knows what theyre doing In a place that seems surreal Any fool can plan his ruin In a world that's down at heel So as the mist clears from the water Will it give you second sight Can you remember what youre here for And will you take it as youre right?
She said she'd wait for you As you closed her eyes
You´re there in black and white Hundreds watch you every night
You´ve been starring in a film on every weekend On video and stills with all of your friends You´re there in black and white Hundreds watch you every night
You cannot hide You cannot hide You cannot Cos we can see you every where / in the daytime We can see you every where / in the nightime We can see you every where / for a lifetime We can see you every where
You´re great in every scene You very natural It's As if you cannot see The spotlight on you But when you fluff a line The director says you´re doing time You cannot hide...
When you´re walking home In the evening afterdark Remember don´t hide Show your best side Cos your the star in a film...
You cannot hide You cannot hide You cannot hide You cannot hide You cannot......
Well I married me a wife She gave me trouble all my life Ran me out in the cold rain and snow The rain and snow, rain and snow Ran me out in the cold rain and snow
She came running on down the stairs Combing back her long blonde hair And her cheeks were as red as a rose As a Rose, as a rose And her cheeks were as red as a rose As a Rose, as a rose
She said I aint got no use for your red apple juice And I'm not gonna be treated this way This Way, This way And I'm not gonna be treated this way
I see you all sitting in the shade Counting every dime I made I'm so broke and I'm hungry too I'm Hungry Too Ooh Hungry Too Ooh I'm so broke and I'm hungry too
Amid the Sound and Lights On a table with friends Everybody's fine They're all drinking wine, yeah Was there you fell in love In a crowded room Not for the first But for the thousandth time, yeah
So you Celebrate, you celebrate you celebrate your Love With a little house Just made for two With all the lovely things You can buy brand new You gonna settle down Just the both of you You gonna be a good soul From now on, yea
And when the sap first rose Back in the day You thought you'd play it smart The trail of broken hearts, yeah You said they won't find you They won't find you They won't find you Just living in a box for two
But now you Celebrate, you celebrate you celebrate your love With a little house Just made for two With all the lovely things You can buy brand new You gonna settle down Just the both of you
So when you catch an eye And your dancing heart Starts telling you the lies You're doing it to survive What else could hurt So much it makes you cry
Yes, you Celebrate, you celebrate you celebrate your love With a little house Just made for two With all the lovely things You can buy brand new You gonna settle down Just the both of you You gonna be a good soul From now on, yeah
What a beautiful day (hey hey) I'm the king of all time And nothing is impossible In my all powerful mind
Was on the fifth of November, when time it went back Some say that's impossible, but you and I would never look back And wasn't it incredible, so beautiful and above all Just to see the fuse get lit this time To light a real bonfire, for all time
And what a beautiful day (hey hey) I'm the king of all time And nothing is impossible In my all powerful mind
I was drinking in my night club It felt good to be back When Hepburn said "I love you" And Flyn said, "Make mine a double, Jack"
Then we planned the revolution To make things better for all time And when the Guevara said "That's crazy" And ordered up a bottle of wine
What a beautiful day (hey hey) I'm the king of all time And nothing is impossible In my all powerful mind
In there on the big screen, every night I've seen The way all things could be For me, for me, for me, for me
The news broke after midnight, That we pulled the temples down without a sound But the generals they were hiding out And the ministers, Well! They'd all gone to ground
Wealth re-distribution, became the new solution So I got a paper bag, but you got the one with all the holes
What a beautiful day (hey hey) I'm the king of all time And nothing is impossible In my all powerful mind
Oh yeah, nothing is impossible In my own powerful mind
That's because nothing is impossible In my own powerful mind
Well this is murder Yea, On the dog train When all the brakes have failed And I'm going down hill And if you see me wave Yea, I'm only saying bye bye There's not a single tear Here in my eyes
La, La, La ..........
And if you've heard this before Yea, I'm gonna say it again But life was easier when I didn't have a clue Because this is murder I'm getting dog tired Let's make the world brand new How about you
You were born out of one But you were made as two You were made to go on You've forgotten what to do So wake up noe I'm begging you You sleep ans sleep on It's all you ever do Has your comfort now gone When you look around the room And remember the fire, the fire in you The sleeping excuse that's all you ever do And its really no use When there's so much left for us to do Can you make some time For what is always yours and mine I've seen you cutting loose I've seen you stretched out On the line Try and remember the truth Without you we're all no use Wake up my friend
You'll find us caught in the middle of our everyday in every way you'll see us looking for a reason in everyday in everyway we slave and steal but what we just don't want we just can't feel no we just can't feel were always surprised when we don't get heard when we speak our words when we speak our words Its not enough we say cos we the damned we wait
you'll find us with a painted smile trying to get things done just to get along you'll find us trying to chase down dreams as they float upstream as they float upstream its been so long weve forgotten how to care for the things we lost that are deep down there but through every new fad, through every phase pleased every god worship every craze Its not enough we say cos we the damned we wait Pass the time with a little bit of distraction we pass the time with a little self destruction we grasp at times moments of satisfaction Cos we the damned we wait
Have you ever wondered, dare you ever ask? Just who it is that's pulling your strings so fast Do you ever think have you ever been so sure? Just who that is keeps asking you for more
Sure enough you know it and you know it in your heart When you were born they had you from the start And when you find you've got nothing left to say They'll cut your strings and they're starting from today
Guess who's the daddy who's really in control Guess who's got your number and who owns your soul
When you remember all the places you have been Every situation well nothings what it seems When you start asking and getting no reply They'll cut your strings for daring to ask why
Guess who's the daddy who's really in control Guess who's got your number and who owns your soul
TRUTH AND LIES no disguise
Guess who's the daddy who's really in control Guess who's got your number and who owns your soul
I'm so glad to see you and the things that you do are so chemically free it's a wonder to me you're still smiling I hear you're top of the heap you own nothing that's cheap and how is London town is it getting you down just lately
Now you're on top of the world Looking down on the nation You're the boy with the girls Who's above all creation you're The man with the plan Whose going to do all he can for himself
And do they buy what you sell all that you took from us well they say that loves not for sale and have I hit the nail you've been holding Have all the friends that you've made for the prices you paid come to lie at the feet and worship your cheat that you made.
(repeat chorus and first verse)
I believe you. I believe you. I believe you. Can you remember when we spoke back in those gone days.
I believe you. We believe you.I believe you. We believe you. I believe you. We believe you.
Can you remember when we spoke back in those bad days.
I believe you. We believe you. I believe you. We believe you. I believe you. We believe you.
You should have told us that you never meant a word that you said.
He came of second best when he first came round here In a town that's built on money built on fear Just don't fake life, he's been told a thousand times
You see the wheels that we turn in keep dragging us down
He was amazed to see the fallen here Tried so very hard to fight the fear Then when he saw the end and it werent very far It slipped from his grasp And he stumbled there in the dark Just don't fake life you've been told a thousand times
He took a troubled heart and then he gave it out Took a violent change of circumstance to shout There can be nobody better to turn things around Yes there can be nobody better to turn things around Just don't fake life you've been told a thousand times

My friend, well he walked me down these roads I've never known, The salvation of my soul, myself the only goal. There were pleasures I thought I'd seen, some I never knew, There were people dressed in rainments of an uncertain hue. The chances I thought I'd had, many I'd missed, There were devils bearing gifts and angels on the piss.
For my sins I will confess and I will never lie. There's nobody that was ever here that's never wondered why, And I've lived my life the best, every second to defy. Will nobody that was ever here grieve me when I die?
On the first day I met myself coming back from the third; I believed in what I was doing, I swallowed every word. Every word that I was told by the Great and the Good, I bit the poisoned apple 'cause I felt that I should.
For my sins I will confess and I will never lie. There's nobody that was ever here that's never wondered why, And I've lived my life the best, every second to defy. Will nobody that was ever here grieve me when I die? When I die ..
And now that I come to it, I can recall what it was I achieved just before my fall. I saw visions of ugliness, I visited shame, But I know should I come to it I'd do it all again.
For my sins I will confess and I will never lie. There's nobody that was ever here that's never wondered why, And I've lived my life the best, every second to defy. Will nobody that was ever here grieve me when I die?
'Cause I've lived my life the best, every second to defy. Will nobody that was ever here grieve me when I die? When I die ..
And will nobody that was ever here grieve me when I die?..
When you're staring at the walls And your heart begins to sink Seems that no-one ever calls And you've nothing left to think
Well i would love to make you happy But i'm busy with my mind Cos i would love to make your world right I need your help and yo need mine
When your queing with the rest Hurrying to wait in line I'm the one thats behind you I'm behind you all the time
Its monday again, drives you insane There's more to gain, when you touch the flame And i have seen you from afar Wondering if you have seen me Seen you sitting in your car Just staring at the sea Ive seen your head slumped at the bar Wont you buy a drink for me Cos this old world aint very large I hope one day you'll talk to me
Do you fancy a drink, Just the one, To clear your head, We won't be long. It's a beautiful day, To waste away, There's plenty of time, For another one.
You know you shouldn't do it, But see no reason why, So you blow your mind, Yeah, yeah, Uh-ha.
Make mine a short, I'm getting there, But where that is, I couldn't care. There must be something I havn't tried, Perhaps that bottle before my eyes.
You know you shouldn't do it, But you see no reason why, So you blow your mind, Yeah, yeah, Uh-ha.
Through the haze, The sun goes down, It's getting late, Let's hit the town. Call some friends, To paint it red, And feed the animal, In your head.
You know you shouldn't do it, But you see no reason why, So you blow your mind, Yeah, yeah, Uh-ha.
They throw you out, You hit the night, You go to a club, You feel alright. You get a pill, You take just half, Then take the rest of it, For a laugh.
You know you shouldn't do it, But you see no reason why, So you blow your mind, Yeah, yeah, Uh-ha.
Across the floor, You think you see, The one in your dreams, Your fantasy. But that last drink, Has made you blind, You need the bar, But it's hard to find.
You know you shouldn't do it, But you see no reason why, So you blow your mind, Yeah, yeah, Uh-ha.
There's a brand new game, You want to try, You line them up, And it's the first to die. You think you've won, But it's time to leave, And back to your's, For a cup of tea.
You know you shouldn't do it, But you see no reason why, So you blow your mind, Yeah, yeah, Uh-ha.
When you find your keys, And you all fall in, You spend an hour, In search of skins. When all seems lost, And it's looking grim, You find the bottle, Of Christmas gin.
You know you shouldn't do it, But you see no reason why, So you blow your mind, Yeah, yeah, Uh-ha.
The rest is blank, And that's the worst, An empty head, For an empty purse. You had a laugh, So you think, But in the morning, You just stink.
You know you shouldn't do it, But you see no reason why, So you blow your mind, Yeah, yeah, Uh-ha.
So you fancy a drink, Just the one, To clear your head, We won't be long.
She's the maid of the river So beautifully plain As fresh as the country That gave her her name As crisp as the snow And as swift as the rain She shone like the sun Before all of our games She shone like a jewel But her price was not gold She cried more than most When her story was told But her people were evil Left her barren and cold And her heart went to market Where her body was sold I said : 'Hey, hey won't you take me away 'Cos I can't see the point In the dawn of the day When so many killers gonna take you away They'll leave nothing left except hatred' She's the goddess of love The goddess in green The goddess of all That I've ever seen The goddess of hope The goddess in brown The goddess of all That you've burned to the ground There's all kind of hatred Flows out of man's hands There's the hatred that strangles The throat of a man But the worst of all hatred Is that which is planned Against what we have In this goddess of land
