GLAD ALL OVER
The Dave Clark Five
(Dave Clark / Mike Smith)
You say that you love me (say you love me)
All of the time (all of the time)
You say that you need me (say you need me)
You'll always be mine (always be mine)
I'm feelin' glad all over
Yes I'm-a glad all over
Baby I'm glad all over
So glad you're mine
I'll make you happy (make you happy)
You'll never be blue (never be blue)
You'll have no sorrow (have no sorrow)
'Cause I'll always be true (always be true)
And I'm feelin' glad all over
Yes I'm-a glad all over
Baby I'm-a glad all over
So glad you're mine
Other girls may try to take me away (take me away)
But you know, it's by your side I will stay
I'll stay
Our love will last now (our love will last)
Till the end of time (end of time)
Because this love now (because this love)
Is gonna be yours and mine (yours and mine)
And I'm feelin' glad all over
Yes I'm-a glad all over
Baby I'm glad all over
So glad you're mine
Other girls may try to take me away (take me away)
But you know, it's by your side I will stay
I'll stay
All of our lives now (all of our lives)
Till the end of time (end of time)
Because this love now (because this love)
Is only yours and mine (yours and mine)
And I'm feelin' glad all over
Yes I'm-a glad all over
Baby I'm-a glad all over
So glad you're mine
I'm so glad you're mine now
I'm so, I'm so glad you're mine
I'm-a so glad you're mine now
Whoa-whoa-whoa-whoa-whoa-whoa

Love, it's not I who didn't try
Hard enough, hard enough
And this is why I'm saying goodbye
I've had enough, I've had enough
Love, you don't see the pain in me
It's plain enough, plain enough
You're never here to catch the tears
I cry for us, I cry for us
I'll take my share but I'll be fair
There's not much stuff, easy enough
And if you choose, I'll break the news
This part is tough, so very tough
I've tried and tried to put aside
A time to talk, but without luck
So I'll just pin this note within your coat
And leave the garden gate unlocked
And this is why I'm saying goodbye
I've had enough, I've had enough

Together we'll go all the way
Tell me what you want from me
Give me what I need from you
Anything you want to do
I'm gonna need to follow through
Everything I have is yours
I pray you understand because

I'm gonna be with you
Together's amazing

Together we'll go all the way
Now my heart is beating fast
Time is short, the die is cast
I can keep a secret
If you can really mean it and
Feel the luck beside us
and so much love inside us
Whatever we have to do
I'm gonna be with you
Together's amazing
Together we're blazing

Sometimes you're better off dead
There's gun in your hand and it's pointing at your head
You think you're mad, too unstableKicking in chairs and knocking down tables
In a restaurant in a West End townCall the police, there's a madman around
Running down underground to a dive barIn a West End town
In a West End town, a dead end world
The East End boys and West End girls
In a West End town, a dead end world
The East End boys and West End girls West End girls
Too many shadows, whispering voicesFaces on posters, too many choices

Oh-way-oh, oh-way-oh
Oh-way-oh, oh-way-oh
Oh-way-oh, oh-way-oh)

It's something
That look in your eyes tonight
Like magic
It's changing everything in sight

I hear it all around me every day
In the music that you play

[Repeat: x2]
This is the sound
Of all boys and girls
You hear it
Playing all over the world

The night sky
Like velvet masks our eyes tonight
And falling
Reveals the sunrise
Ending night

We feel it
All around us
Every day
In the music that we play

[Repeat: x3]
This is the sound
Of all boys and girls
You hear it
Playing all over the world

(all over the world)
Ey-ey-ey-ey
[x4]

Ay-oh-ay-oh

It's sincere at its objective
Superficial and true
Easy and predictable
Exciting and new
Just say 'I want you'

[Repeat: x2]
This is the sound
Of all boys and girls
You hear it
Playing all over the world

Christmas is not all it's cracked up to be
Families fighting around a plastic tree
Nothing on the TV that you'd want to see
And it's hardly ever snowing
The way it's meant to be
Like in White Christmas year after year
Bing Crosby, Bring Crosby
Are you listening to me?

It doesn't often snow at Christmas
The way it's meant to do
But I'll still have a glow at Christmas
Because I'll be with you

The Christmas message was long ago lost
Now it's all about shopping and how much things cost
It's meant to be goodwill as well as synthetic fun
And what this is this year's festive number one

It doesn't often snow at Christmas
The way it's meant to do
But I'll still have a glow at Christmas
Because I'll be with you

Neil: Merry Christmas
Chris: And a happy new year

Oh, my girl
My girl

My girl's mad at me
I didn't wanna see the film tonight
I found it hard to say
She thought I'd had enough of her

Oh, my girl

My girl's mad at me
Been on the telephone for an hour
We hardly said a word
I tried and tried but I could not be heard

Why can't she see
She's lovely to me?
But I like to stay in
And watch TV on my own
Every now and then

My girl's mad at me
Been on the telephone for an hour
We hardly said a word
I tried and tried but I could not be heard

Why can't I explain?
Why do I feel this pain?
'cause everything I say
She doesn't understand
She doesn't realise
She takes it all the wrong way

My girl's mad at me
We argued just the other night
I thought wed got it straight
We talked and talked until it was light

I thought we'd agreed
I thought we'd talked it out
Now when I try to speak
She says that I don't care
She says I'm unaware
And now she says Im weak

Why can't she see
She's lovely to me?
But I like to stay in
And watch TV on my own
Every now and then

Oh, my girl

My girl

Watch them all fall down
Watch them all fall down

I used to rule the world
Seas would rise when I gave the word
Now in the morning I sleep alone
Sweep the streets I used to own

I used to roll the dice
Feel the fear in my enemy's eyes
Listen as the crowd would sing
"Now the old king is dead, long live the king"

One minute I held the key
Next the walls were closed on me
Now I discovered that my castles stand
Upon pillars of salt and pillars of sand

I hear Jerusalem bells a-ringin'
Roman cavalry choirs are singin'
Be my mirror, my sword and shield
My missionaries in a foreign field
For some reason I can't explain
I know St. Peter won't call my name
Never an honest word
And that was when I ruled the world

It was a wicked and wild wind
Blew the doors to let me in
Shattered windows and the sound of drums
People couldn't believe what I'd become

Revolutionaries wait
For my head on a silver plate
Just a puppet on a lonely string
Oh, who would ever want to be king?

I hear Jerusalem bells a-ringin'
Roman cavalry choirs are singin'
Be my mirror, my sword and shield
My missionaries in a foreign field
For some reason I can't explain
I know St. Peter won't call my name
Never an honest word
But that was when I ruled the world

Watch them all fall down
Watch them all fall down

Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh...

City life just leaves me weak
All this madness on the street
Need to get away today
Live my life a different way

Is it only a fantasy
To dream about a perfect me?

[Chorus: x2]
I want to live like beautiful people
Give like beautiful people
With like beautiful people around

Buy the latest magazine
And aspire to the dream
Perfect home and perfect kids
Not a life lived on the skids

Is it only fantasy
Or could it be reality?

[Chorus: x2]

Now I can see myself
Without a care in the world
It's a sun shining
Money spending
Green and healthy new world

Is it only fantasy
Or could it be reality?

[Chorus: x2]

[Repeat: x2]
Protection (prevention)
Detection (detention)
There's no where to defect to any more

[Repeat: x2]
I'm building a wall
A fine wall
Not so much to keep you out
More to keep me in

Back then on a bomb site
We were spies among the ruins
Such precocious barbarians
On TV we saw
Cold War

[Repeat: x2]
Protection (prevention)
Detection (detention)
There's no where to defect to any more

I'm leaving the world
It's all wrong
Not so much what many are doing
Much more what's within us

I'm building a wall
A fine wall
Not so much to keep you out
More to keep me in

Jesus and the man from Angol
Caesar conquered Gaul
Scouting for Centurians
On a Roman war

Through the woods, the trees
And further on, the sea
We lived in the shadow of the wall
Sand in the sandwiches
Wasps in the tea
It was a free country
(who do you think you are, Captain Britain?)

I'm building a wall
A fine wall
Not so much to keep you out
More to keep me in

I'm losing my head
Well, why not?
More work for the undertaker
Means there's less for me

[Repeat: x3]
I'm building a wall
A fine wall
Not so much to keep you out
More to keep me in

Did you see me coming
Was I that obvious
For all of a sudden
There were just two of us
You don't have to be
in Who's Who
to know what's what
You don't have
to be a high flier
to catch your slot
The night we met
was cold and wet
I needed a drink or two
I saw you standing
there and I knew
I'd like to be loved by you
Did you see me coming
Was I that obvious
For all of a sudden
There were just two of us
You don't have to be what's what
to know who's who
You don't need the DNA
to find the proof
Then and there
my life made sense
You were the evidence
Did you see me coming
Was I that obvious
For all of a sudden
There were just two of us
Did you see me coming
I thought I'd have to make
All of the running
I was all yours to take
I'm not superstitious
Or really religious
Just to thyself be true
But now I think I'm starting
to believe in fate
Because it delivered you

Did you see me coming
Was I that obvious
For all of a sudden
There were just two of us
Did you see me coming
I thought I'd have to make
All of the running
I was all yours to take
Did you see me coming
Was I that obvious
For all of a sudden
There were just the two of us

Small man, big world
Lost beyond the pale
I know you inside out
I can tell the tale

Across the sky the change of time
Last night I lost all day
I'm here and there or anywhere
Away from Manderley

And if I were the king of Rome
I couldn't be more tragic
My fate to roam so far from home
In search of mindless magic

Oh baby come back
Oh baby come back to me

The desert moon, a new lagoon
We glide upon the surface
Night falls fast, no shadows cast
Arriving without purpose

Oh baby call me
Oh baby call me today

And if I were the king of Rome
I couldn't be more lonely
With so much scope to dream and hope
Someday you'll deign to phone me

Oh baby call me
Oh baby call me today

I long for your inscrutable pale face
I hunger for your beautiful embrace

That's it, the end
But you'll get over it, my friend

Time will pass, governments fall
Glaciers melt, hurricanes bawl
High-speed trains take us away
North or south and back the same day

And you, you'll get over it
You do, you get over it

Seasons will change, more or less
Species vanish, art perplex
Resentment remain both east and west
Police expect an arrest

For now, you'll get over it
Somehow, you'll get over it

You'll be there, the king over the water
In despair, recoiling from the slaughter

They're raising an army in the North
From York Minster to the Firth of Forth
A pilgrimage of grace, you won't believe it
Such a human face when you receive it

And you will get over it
With time to kill, you'll get over it

There's a cruiser waiting at Scapa Flow
To take you away from all you know
The old man agonised
He really has compromised

Public opinion may not be on your side
There are those who think they've been taken for a ride
You'll get over it, I'm on your side because
You'll get over it, and what a ride it was!

Tout les artistes dans le monde
Chantent pour toi ce soir
Tout les artistes dans le monde
Chantent pour toi c'est noir

It's dark, but you'll get over it
On your mark, you'll get over it

That Carphone Warehouse boy has been on the phone
He wants to upgrade the mobile you own
Have you realized your computer's a spy?
Give him a ring, he'll explain why

The bourgeoisie will get over it
Look at me, I'm so over it
And you, you'll get over it!
You do, you get over it in time

You need more
You need more
You need more
You need more
You need more
You need more
You need more
You need more
You need more

Boy it’s tough getting on in the world
When the sun doesn’t shine and a boy needs a girl
It’s about getting out of a rut, you need luck
But you’re stuck and you don’t know how, oh

(Don’t have to be) A big bucks Hollywood star
(Don’t have to drive) A super car to get far
(Don’t have to live) A life of power and wealth
(Don’t have to be) Beautiful but it helps
(Don’t have to buy) A house in Beverly Hills
(Don’t have to have) Your daddy paying the bills
(Don’t have to live) A life of power and wealth
(Don’t have to be) Beautiful but it helps

You need more
Than a big blank check to be a lover,
or A Gulfstream jet to fly you door to door
Somewhere chic on another shore

You need more
You need more
You need more
You need more
You need more
You need more

You need love

You need love

You need love

Too much of anything is never enough
Too much of everything is never enough

Boy it’s tough getting on in the world
When the sun doesn’t shine and a boy needs a girl
It’s about getting out of a rut, you need luck
But you’re stuck and you don’t know how, oh

(Don’t have to be) A big bucks Hollywood star
(Don’t have to drive) A super car to get far
(Don’t have to wear) A smile much colder than ice
(Don’t have to be) Beautiful but it’s nice

You need more
Than the Gerhard Richter hangin’ on your wall
A chauffeur-driven limousine on call
To drive your wife and lover to a white tie ball

You need more
You need more
You need more
You need more
You need more
You need more

You need love

I believe that we can achieve
The love that we need
I believe, call me naive
Love is for free

(Don’t have to be) A big bucks Hollywood star
(Don’t have to drive) A super car to get far
(Don’t have to live) A life of power and wealth
(Don’t have to be) Beautiful but it helps
Beautiful but it helps
Beautiful but it helps...

Coming soon
Something good
Something we can share
Understood
Could be better news
We can share
Something's coming soon
I hear it everywhere

(live it) it's the story of our lives
(come give it) it's the way we've always been
(come give it) though the mountains may divide
(come give it) we can reach the sea

I believe we can change
We can make it more than a dream
And I believe we can change
It's not as strange as it might seem

In the air I can feel
Something magical becoming real
From the other side looking in
Come on, throw the dice
And tonight we'll win

(live it) it's the story of our lives
(come give it) it's the way we've always been
(come give it) though the mountains may divide
(come give it) we can reach the sea

[Repeat: x2]
I believe we can change
We can make it more than a dream
And I believe we can change
It's not as strange as it might seem

Driving through the night
Just you and me
Faster than any light
Something's calling (calling, calling)
Calling us away
Do you believe
Heaven isn't that obvious
We'll be there in a heartbeat

I believe we can change
We can make it more than a dream
And I believe we can change
It's not as strange as it might seem

It's not as strange as it might seem

[Repeat: x3]
I believe we can change
We can make it more than a dream
And I believe we can change
It's not as strange as it might seem

Is this a riot or are you just pleased to see me?
Why aren't we holding hands and talking sweets?
I love you really, though I know no-one believes me
There's chaos every time we meet

Oh no, look what you've gone and done
You're creating pandemonium
That song you sing means everything
To me, I'm living in ecstasy
The stars and the sun dance to your drum
And now it's pandemonium!

You're crashing everywhere, it's like you're smashing china
Skidding on an icy road
You're major trouble since you were almost a minor
I sometimes think we'll both explode

Oh no, look what you've gone and done
You're creating pandemonium
That song you sing means everything
To me, I'm living in ecstasy
My world's gone mad, what did you do?
Telling perfect strangers that I love you
The stars and the sun dance to your drum
And now it's pandemonium!

I can't make sense of anything
All I know is the party's in full swing
If we both just stopped for a minute
I declare war and then you'd win it

To tell you the truth, I thought I was shockproof
Until I saw what you get up to
When you think about it, it's quite an achievement
That after all I still love you

Oh no, look what you've gone and done
You're creating pandemonium
That song you sing means everything
To me, I'm living in ecstasy
My world's gone mad, what did you do?
Telling perfect strangers that I love you
The stars and the sun dance to your drum
And now it's pandemonium!

I'm here... you're there
Come closer... tonight I'm lonely
Come here... with me
I want it... the way it used to be

What is left of love?
Tell me, who will even care?
So much time has passed
I'd still meet you anywhere
Water under bridge
Evening after day
What is left of love
Here that didn't drift away?

I can remember days of sun
We knew our lives had just begun
We could do anything, we're fearless when we're young
Under the moon, address unknown
I can remember nights in Rome
I thought that love would last, a promise set in stone

I'd survive with only memories
If I could change the way I feel
But I want more than only memories
The human touch to make them real

Another day, another dream
Over the bridge, an empty scene
We'd spend the weekend lost in bed and float upstream
I don't know why we moved away
Lost in the here and now we strayed
Into a New York zone, our promise was betrayed

I was there, caught on Tenth Avenue
You, elsewhere with Culver City blues
Then and there I knew that I'd lost you

What is left of love?
Tell me, who will even care?
So much time has passed
I'd still meet you anywhere
Water under bridge
Evening after day
What is left of love
Here that didn't drift away?

Don't give me all your love and pain
Don't sell me New York in the rain
Let's leave our promises behind
Rewind, and try again

What remains in time
That didn't fade away?
Sometimes I need to see
The way it used to be

You may think I'm strong
And I can do no wrong
But I'm vulnerable
So vulnerable
Without you

I may be hard to take
But you can call me fake
'cause I'm vulnerable
So vulnerable
Without you

I know the assumption
Is that I'm tough
With all my anger
That's fair enough
Even with friends
I have to compete
And try being me
When you walk down the street

It's not easy
By the by
Just surviving
In the public
Eye

You may think I'm strong
And I can do no wrong
But I'm vulnerable
So vulnerable
Without you

I may be hard to take
But you can call me fake
'cause I'm vulnerable
So vulnerable
Without you

You know I can't ever
Bear to seem weak
Or have any doubts
That's just my technique
I put in the hours
At least I don't shirk
A little bravado
Does much of the work

I am no one's
Stepping stone
But I couldn't live life
In private
Alone

You may think I'm strong
And I can do no wrong
But I'm vulnerable
So vulnerable
Without you

I may be hard to take
But you can call me fake
'cause I'm vulnerable
So vulnerable
Without you

At night
I am lying awake
Through the hours trying
To calculate
Am I good enough?
Could I contrive?
To keep this sham around
Will I survive?

I know you must sometimes
Think I don't care
Or even appreciate
What we share

Though I'm no one's
Stepping stone
The truth is I love you
And I'd go crazy
Alone

You may think I'm strong
And I can do no wrong
But I'm vulnerable
So vulnerable
Without you

I may be hard to take
But you can call me fake
'cause I'm vulnerable
So vulnerable
Without you

So vulnerable without you

(Hallo) Spaceboy, you're sleepy now
Your silhouette is so stationary
You're released but your custody calls
And I want to be free

Don't you want to be free

Oh-oh, I'm with Stupid
Oh-oh, I'm with Stupid
See you on the TV
Call you every day
Fly across the ocean
Just to let you get your way
No one understands me
Where I'm coming from
Why would I be with someone
Who's obviously so dumb?
Love comes
Love grows
Every time you rise to meet me
Take my hand to greet me
Love comes
Love grows
And power can give a man
Much more than anybody knows
Oh-oh, I'm with Stupid
Oh-oh, I'm with Stupid
Oh-oh, I'm with Stupid
Oh-oh, I'm with Stupid
Before we ever met
I thought like everybody did
You were just a moron
A billion-dollar kid
You flew up all the way
Like a hawk chasing a dove
I never thought that I would be
A sacrifice in love
It comes
It grows
And now we're tied together
Everybody knows
Oh-oh, I'm with Stupid
Oh-oh, I'm with Stupid
Oh-oh, I'm with Stupid
Oh-oh, I'm with Stupid
Is stupid really stupid
Or a different kind of smart?
Do we really have a relationship
So special in your heart?
Oh-oh, I'm with Stupid
Oh-oh, I'm with Stupid
I have to ask myself Like any lover might
Have you made a fool of me?
Are you not Mr Right?
You grin
I pose
It's not about sincerity
Everybody knows
Oh-oh, I'm with Stupid
Oh-oh, I'm with Stupid
Oh-oh, I'm with Stupid
Oh-oh, I'm with Stupid
Is stupid really stupid
Or a different kind of smart?
That's how you stole my heart
I'm with Stupid

Suche gut gebauten Achtzehn- bis Dreißigjahrigen zum
Schlachten
Der Metzgermeister

Heute treff ich einen Herrn
Der hat mich zum Fressen gern
Weiche Teile und auch harte
stehen auf der Speisekarte

Dann du bist
was du isst
und ihr wisst
was es ist

Es ist mein teil - nein
Mein Teil - nein
Dann das ist mein teil - nein
Mein Teil - nein

Die stumpfe Klinge - gut und recht
Ich blute stark und mir ist schlecht
Muss ich auch mit der Ohnmacht kampfen
ich esse weiter unter Krampfen

Ist doch so gut gewurzt
und so schon flambiert
und so liebevoll auf Porzellan serviert
Dazu ein guter Wein und zarter
kerzenschein
Ja da lass ich mir Zeit
Etwas Kultur muss sein

Dann du bist
was du isst
und ihr wisst
was es ist

Es ist mein teil - nein
Mein Teil - nein
Dann das ist mein teil - nein
Yes it's mein teil - nein

Ein Schrei wird zum himmel fahren
schneidet sich durch engelscharen
Vom Wolkendach fallt Federfleisch
auf meine kindheit mit gekreish

Es ist mein teil - nein
Mein Teil - nein
Dann Das ist mein teil - nein
Mein Teil - nein

On the corner of main street
Just tryin' to keep it in line
You say you wanna move on and
You say I'm falling behind

Can you read my mind?
Can you read my mind?

I never really gave up on
Breakin' out of this two-star town
I got the green light
I got a little fight
I'm gonna turn this thing around

Can you read my mind?
Can you read my mind?

The good old days, the honest man;
The restless heart, the Promised Land
A subtle kiss that no one sees;
A broken wrist and a big trapeze

Oh well I don't mind, if you don't mind
Cuz I don't shine if you don't shine
Before you go
Can you read my mind?

It's funny how you just break down
Waitin' on some sign
I pull up to the front of your driveway
With magic soakin' my spine

Can you read my mind?
Can you read my mind?

The teenage queen, the loaded gun;
The drop dead dream, the Chosen One
A southern drawl, a world unseen;
A city wall and a trampoline

Oh well I don't mind, if you don't mind
Cuz I don't shine if you don't shine
Before you go
Tell me what you find
When you read my mind

Slippin in my faith until I fall
He never returned that call
Woman, open the door, don't let it sting
I wanna breathe that fire again

She said
I don't mind, if you don't mind
Cuz I don't shine if you don't shine

Put your back on me
Put your back on me
Put your back on me

The stars are blazing like rebel diamonds cut out of the sun
Can you read my mind

Je suis desole
Lo siento
Ik ben droevig
Sono spiacente
Perdoname

I've heard it all before
I've heard it all before

Please don't say you're sorry
I've heard it all before
And I can take care of myself
I don't wanna hear, I don't wanna know
Please don't say 'forgive me'
I've seen it all before
And I can't take it anymore

You're not half the man you think you are
Save your words because you've gone too far
I've listened to your lies and all your stories (Listen to your stories)
You're not half the man you'd like to be

I don't wanna hear, I don't wanna know
Please don't say you're sorry
I've heard it all before
And I can take care of myself
I don't wanna hear, I don't wanna know
Please don't say 'forgive me'
I've seen it all before
And I can't take it anymore

Don't explain yourself cause talk is cheap
There's more important things than hearing you speak
Mistake me cause I made it so convenient
Don't explain yourself, you'll never see

Forgive me...

(Sorry, sorry, sorry)
I've heard it all before
I've heard it all before
I've heard it all before

I don't wanna hear, I don't wanna know

I've heard it all before

Walking on thin ice
I'm paying the price
For throwing the dice in the air
Why must we learn it the hard way
And play the game of life with your heart?

I gave you my knife
You gave me my life
Like a gush of wind in my hair
Why do we forget what's been said
And play the game of life with our hearts?

I may cry someday
But the tears will dry whichever way
And when our hearts return to ashes
It'll be just a story
It'll be just a story

Ai-ai-ai-ai-ai-ai-ai-ai...

Ooh-ahooh...

"I knew a girl who tried to walk across the lake,
'Course it was winter when all this was ice.
That's a hell of a thing to do, you know.
They say the lake is as big as the ocean.
I wonder if she knew about it?"

Ai-ai-ai-ai-ai-ai-ai-ai...

The Killers
well your eyes just haven't been the same, Joseph
Are you bad at dealing with the fame, Joseph
There's a pale moonshine, above you
Do you see both sides, do they shove you, around

Elton John
Is the touchstone forcing you to hide, Joseph
Are the rumors eating you alive, Joseph

The Killers
When the holy night is upon you
Will you do what's right, the position is yours

Elton John
From the temple walls to the New York night
Our decisions rest on a chid
When she took her stand
Did she hold your hand
Will your faith stand still or run away
Run away

Elton John
When they've driven you so far
That you think you're gonna drop
Do you wish you were back there at the carpenter shop

Neil Tennant
With the plane and the lathe
The work never drove you mad
Your're a maker, a creator
Not just somebody's dad
From the temple walls to the New York night
Our decisions rest on a man
When i take the stand
When i take the stand
Will he hold my hand
Will my faith stand still or run away
(run away)

Elton John
and the desert
it's a hell of a place to find heaven
Forty years lost in the wilderness looking for God
And you climb to the top of the mountain
Looking down on the city
Where you were born

(On the years since you left gave you time to sit back and reflect)

Better you than me(Better you than me)
Better you than me
Yes

The Killers
Well the holy night is upon you(Better you than me x 2)
Do you see both sides, do they shove you, around

Better you than me , Joseph(Better you than me x 2)
Do you see both sides, do they shove you, around

Better you than me, Joseph(Better you than me)
Better you than me
Joseph,Joseph,Joseph,Joseph
Than me
Better you than me
Better you than me(Better you ,Better you ,Better you)
Than me

Well your eyes just haven't been the same, Joseph

The girl's perfection
inspires affection
It's queer that here he can't cast his spell
in her direction
Somewhere near
One senses fear Casanova in Hell

The girl is naked
The boy is naked
He hides
inside
a secret chamber
There to gape
through a velvet drape
and dream of rape
Casanova in Hell

Her sharp suggestion
he couldn't get an erection
came as a shock
He finds himself
a laughing-stock
His ageing fate
to contemplate
Casanova in Hell
Back in the library
his revenge is his story
What he will write
will recall the bite
of his wit and legendary appetite
The sybarite Casanova is well
For Casanova has the last laugh
Creates the myth and vindication
of his sexual vocation
Makes the definitive collection
His lives and lovers and above all
his erection
will live in history

Dreaming of the Queen
Visiting for tea
You and her and I
And Lady Di

The Queen said: "I'm aghast
Love never seems to last
However hard you try"
And Di replied

That there are no more lovers left alive
No one has survived
So there are no more lovers left alive
And that's why love has died
Yes, it's true
Look, it's happened to me and you

Then carriages arrived
We stood and said goodbye
Diana dried her eyes
And looked surprised

For I was in the nude
The old Queen disapproved
But people laughed and asked
For autographs

And there were no more lovers left alive
No one had survived
So there were no more lovers left alive
And that's why love had died
Yes, it's true
Look, it's happened to me and you

I woke up in a sweat
Desolate

For there were no more lovers left alive
No one had survived
So there were no more lovers left alive
And that's why love had died
Yes, it's true
Look, it's happened to me and you

BILLIE
An inspirational tirade against me
How to explain my life?
Girls to the left of me
boys to the right of me
neither husband nor wife

Though the days are filled with pain
there is no one who'll explain
why I'm coming under friendly fire
shot in the fatal cause of rock-and-roll
but there's no-one, really no-one, to say:
Why I endure under force majeure
slandered without shame or tact
I who studied make-up, mime and Buddha
who taught two generations to react

About me the critics lied
I ignored them and survived
in spite of coming under friendly fire
shot in the fatal cause of rock-and-roll
But there's nothing, really nothing, to deny

When I look back my eyes are filled with tears
Danger to mascara,
applause to my peers

When fame sustained me and arenas acclaimed me
I floated through life on a cloud
of love and insanity and pagan profanity
before a worshipping crowd

Now my status is ill-defined
As an icon
I'm inclined to be coming under friendly fire
shot in the fatal cause of rock-and-roll
but whatever dull or clever points they've scored
I have never, oh no never, been ignored

I was lost
for so long
Feels like it's taken
half my life
to find
where I belong
Seeing you here
You're my nation
This is my application
Give me hope
Keep me sane
Give me
indefinite leave to remain

All the worlds
that I saw
I went so far away
and still wanted you more
It may sound superficial
but can we make it official?
Give me hope
Keep me sane
Give me indefinite leave to remain

Tell me where I stand
What do you envision?
One way or another
Give me your decision now
Is it time
to proceed?
Will you give me a chance
and the status I need?
Seeing you here
You're my nation
This is my application
Give me hope
Keep me sane
Give me
indefinite leave to remain

When I look back upon my life
It's always with a sense of shame
I've always been the one to blame

For everything I long to do
No matter when or where or who
Has one thing in common, too
It's a, it's a, it's a, it's a sin It's a sin
Everything I've ever done
Everything I ever do
Every place I've ever been
Everywhere I'm going to
It's a sin
At school they taught me how to be
So pure in thought and word and deed
They didn't quite succeed
For everything I long to do
No matter when or where or who
Has one thing in common, too
It's a, it's a, it's a, it's a sin It's a sin
Everything I've ever done
Everything I ever do
Every place I've ever been
Everywhere I'm going to
It's a sin
Father, forgive me, I tried not to do it
Turned over a new leaf, then tore right through it
Whatever you taught me, I didn't believe it
Father, you fought me, 'cause I didn't care
And I still don't understand
So I look back upon my life
Forever with a sense of shame
I've always been the one to blame
For everything I long to do
No matter when or where or who
Has one thing in common, too
It's a, it's a, it's a, it's a sin It's a sin
Everything I've ever done
Everything I ever do
Every place I've ever been
Everywhere I'm going to - it's a sin

It's a, it's a, it's a, it's a sin

and on and on and on...
("I hope it's gonna be alright")

At dead of night, when strangers roam
The streets in search of anyone who'll take them home
I lie alone, the clock strikes three
And anyone who wanted to could contact me
At dead of night, 'till break of day
Endless thoughts and questions keep me awake
It's much too late

Where've you been?
Who've you seen?
You didn't phone when you said you would!
Do you lie?
Do you try to keep in touch? You know you could
I've tried to see your point of view
But could not hear or see
For jealousy

I never knew time pass so slow
I wish I'd never met you, or that I could bear to let you go
At dead of night, 'till break of day
Endless thoughts and questions keep me awake
It's much too late

Where've you been?
Who've you seen?
You didn't phone when you said you would!
Do you lie?
Do you try to keep in touch? You know you could
I've tried to see your point of view
But could not hear or see
For jealousy

Where've you been?
Who've you seen?
You didn't phone when you said you would!
Do you lie?
Do you try to keep in touch? You know you could
I've tried to see your point of view
But could not hear or see
For jealousy

I never knew 'til I met you

(Uuu.....us)

I get out of bed at half past ten
Phone up a friend, who's a party animal
Turn on the news and drink some tea
Maybe if you're with me we'll do some shopping

One day I'll read, or learn to drive a car
If you pass the test, you can beat the rest
But I don't like to compete, or talk street, street, street
I can pick up the best from the party animal

I could leave you, say goodbye
Or I could love you, if I try
And I could
And left to my own devices, I probably would
Left to my own devices, I probably would

Pick up a brochure about the sun
Learn to ignore what the photographer saw
I was always told that you should join a club
Stick with the gang, if you want to belong

I was a lonely boy, no strength, no joy
In a world of my own at the back of the garden
I didn't want to compete, or play out on the street
For in a secret life I was a round head general

I could leave you, say goodbye
Or I could love you, if I try
And I could
And left to my own devices, I probably would
Left to my own devices, I probably would
Oh, I would

I was faced with a choice at a difficult age
Would I write a book? Or should I take to the stage?
But in the back of my head I heard distant feet
Che Guevara and Debussy to a disco beat

It's not a crime when you look the way you do
The way I like to picture you
When I get home, it's late at night
I pour a drink and watch the fight

Turn off the TV, look at a book
Pick up the phone, fix some food
Maybe I'll sit up all night and day
Waiting for the minute I hear you say

I could leave you, say goodbye
Or I could love you, if I try
And I could
And left to my own devices, I probably would
Come on, baby, say goodbye
I could love you, if I try
And I could
And left to my own devices, I probably would
Left to my own devices, I probably would

Out of bed, at half past ten
The party animal phones a friend
Picks up news about the sun
And the working day has just begun

Sticks with the gang - at the back of the street
Pass the test - and you don't compete

Drive the car, if you're with me
Che Guevara's drinking tea
He reads about a new device
And takes to the stage in a secret life

(Uuu.....us)

Left to my own devices, I probably would
If I was left to my own devices, I possibly would

(Uuu.....us)

If I was left to my own devices, I probably would
Left to my own devices, I probably would

I could leave you, say goodbye
Or I could love you, if I try
And I could
And left to my own devices, I probably would
Left to my own devices, I probably would
Come on, baby
Left to my own devices, I probably would

Shadows on the sun
Another night's begun
It's always dark
in Luna Park
Wind across the moon
Electric storms and soon
a flying spark
in Luna Park

And when we're getting higher
we're happy
Somebody's eating fire
we're happy
The big wheel in the sky
will make you scream

Come on, join a line
The ghost train leaves on time
It's always dark
in Luna Park
On the shooting range
the plastic prizes never change
So make your mark
on Luna Park

And when we're getting higher
we're happy
Somebody's eating fire
we're happy
The big wheel in the sky
will make you scream

Thunder. I wonder?
A storm will come one day
to blow us all away
like dust on the moon
In Luna Park
it can't be dark
too soon

A storm is coming soon
Like dust on the moon

Every night we go
to the latest horror show
and hear the screams
in Luna dreams
Fortune-tellers muse
on palms that bode bad news
The future's dark
in Luna Park

And when we're feeling scared
we're happy
With circuses and bread
we're happy
The whirling fair machines
are all we need

Thunder. I wonder?
A storm will come one day
to blow us all away
like dust on the moon
In Luna Park
it can't be dark
too soon

======================= Taken from the soundtrack to Scandal
Mandy's in the papers, 'cause she tried to go to Spain
She'll soon be in the dock, and in the papers once again
Vicki's got her story about the mirror and the cane
It may be false, it may be true
But nothing has been proved
Stephen's in his dressing-gown now, breakfasting alone
Too sick to eat, he's on his feet and to the telephone
The police inspector soothes him with his sympathetic tone
It may be false, it may be true
But nothing has been proved
In the House a resignation, guilty faces everyone
Christine's fallen out with Lucky, Johnny's got a gun
"Please, please me"'s number one
(It's a scandal, it's a scandal, such a scandal)
Now Stephen's in the dock for spending money that was earned
By Christine, and the prosecution says that money burned
A hole in Stephen's pocket, for expensive sins he yearned
It may be false, it may be true
But nothing has been proved
In the news a suicide note, in the court an empty space
Even Mandy's looking worried, Christine's pale and drawn
"Please, please me"'s number one
(It's a scandal, it's a scandal, such a scandal)
Last night he wrote these words to his friend:
"Sorry about the mess"
"I'm guilty 'til proved innocent in the public eye and press"
The funeral's very quiet, because all his friends have fled
They may be false, they may be true
They've all got better things to do
They may be false, they may be true
But nothing has been proved, ooh
Nothing
Nothing has been proved
No, nothing
Nothing
No, nothing
Nothing
No, nothing
Nothing
No, nothing
Nothing
No, nothing

Don't wanna hear the news
What's going on
What's coming through
I don't wanna know
don't wanna know
Just wanna hide away
make my my escape
I want the world
to leave me alone
Feels like I feel too much
I've seen too much
For a little while
I want to forget

I wanna be numb
I don't wanna feel this pain no more
Wanna lose touch
I just wanna go and lock the door
I don't wanna think
I don't wanna feel nothing
I wanna be numb
I just wanna be
wanna be numb

Can't find no space to breathe
World's closing in
right on me now
Well that's how it feels
that's how it feels
Too much light
There's too much sound
Wanna turn it off
Wanna shut it out
I need some relief
Think that like I think too much
I've seen too much
There is just too much
thought in my head

I wanna be numb
I don't wanna feel this pain no more
Wanna lose touch
I just wanna go and lock the door
I don't wanna think
I don't wanna feel nothing
I wanna be numb
I just wanna be
wanna be
taken away from all the madness
Need to escape
escape from the pain
I'm out on the edge
about to lose my mind
For a little while
For a little while
I wanna be numb

I don't wanna think
I don't wanna feel nothing
I wanna be numb
I don't wanna feel this pain no more
Wanna lose touch
I just wanna go and lock the door
I don't wanna think
I don't wanna feel nothing
I wanna be numb
I just wanna be
wanna be numb
I just wanna be
wanna be numb

You dress me up, I'm your puppet
You buy me things, I love it
You bring me food, I need it
You give me love, I feed it
And look at the two of us in sympathy
With everything we see
I never want anything, it's easy
You buy whatever I need
But look at my hopes, look at my dreams
The currency we've spent
(Ooooh) I love you, oh, you pay my rent

(Ooooh) I love you, oh, you pay my rent

You phone me in the evening on hearsay
And bought me caviar
You took me to a restaurant off Broadway
To tell me who you are
We never-ever argue, we never calculate
The currency we've spent
(Ooooh) I love you, oh, you pay my rent

(Ooooh) I love you, you pay my rent

I'm your puppet

I love it

And look at the two of us in sympathy
And sometimes ecstasy
Words mean so little, and money less
When you're lying next to me
But look at my hopes, look at my dreams
The currency we've spent
(Ooooh) I love you, oh, you pay my rent

(Ooooh) I love you, you pay my rent

Look at my hopes, look at my dreams
The currency we've spent
(Ooooh) I love you, oh, you pay my rent
(Ooooh) I love you, you pay my rent

(Ooooh) I love you, oh, you pay my rent
(Ooooh) I love you, you pay my rent
(Ooooh) I love you, you pay my rent (It's easy, it's so easy)

I lived a quiet life
a stranger to champagne
I never dared to venture out
to cities of the plain
I'd heard about their way of life
took it with a pinch of salt
The freedom and the time to play
a life so easy
it intrigued me
when you called to say:

"Are you gonna go
to the Sodom and Gomorrah Show?
It's got everything you need for your complete
entertainment and instruction
Sun, sex, sin, divine intervention,
death and destruction
The Sodom and Gomorrah show
is a once-in-a-lifetime production"

I think it's true to say
my life was changed that night
In the liberated
atmosphere
all around me
Someone found me
whispered in my ear

"Are you gonna go
to the Sodom and Gomorrah Show?
It's got everything you need for your complete
entertainment and instruction
Sun, sex, sin, divine intervention,
death and destruction
The Sodom and Gomorrah Show
is a once-in-a-lifetime production"

Then we went on
after-hours
there was place down below
It was there I realised
the meaning of the show

You've got to love
to learn to live
where angels fear to tread
I did it and I don't regret the day
Even now
I think of how
you turned to me to say

"Are you gonna go
to the Sodom and Gomorrah Show?
It's got everything you need for your complete
entertainment and instruction
Sun, sex, sin, divine intervention,
death and destruction
The Sodom and Gomorrah Show
is a once-in-a-lifetime production"

Sometimes you're better off dead
There's gun in your hand and it's pointing at your head
You think you're mad, too unstableKicking in chairs and knocking down tables
In a restaurant in a West End townCall the police, there's a madman around
Running down underground to a dive barIn a West End town
In a West End town, a dead end world
The East End boys and West End girls
In a West End town, a dead end world
The East End boys and West End girls West End girls
Too many shadows, whispering voicesFaces on posters, too many choices
If, when, why, what?How much have you got?
Have you got it, do you get it, if so, how often?
And which do you choose, a hard or soft option?(How much do you need?)
In a West End town, a dead end world
The East End boys and West End girls
In a West End town, a dead end world
The East End boys and West End girls West End girls West End girls
(How much do you need?) In a West End town, a dead end world
The East End boys and West End girls
Oooh West End town, a dead end world East End boys, West End Girls
West End girlsYou've got a heart of glass or a heart of stone
Just you wait 'till I get you homeWe've got no future, we've got no past
Here today, built to lastIn every city, in every nation
From Lake Geneva to the Finland station(How far have you been?)
In a West End town, a dead end world
The East End boys and West End girls A West End town, a dead end world
East End Boys, West End girls West End girls West End girls
West End girls(How far have you been?) Girls East End boys
And West End girls And West End girls And West End girls
East End boys The West End girls The West End boys
And West End girls The West End girls The West End boys
The West End girls

What a performance tonight
Should I react or turn off
the light?
Looks like you're picking
a fight
in a blurring of wrong
and right
But how your mood changes
You're a devil, now an angel
Suddenly subtle and solemn
and silent as a monk
You only tell me you love me
when you're drunk

It's better than nothing,
I suppose
some doors have opened,
others closed
but I couldn't see you exposed
to the horrors behind some
of those
Somebody said: listen
don't you know what
you're missing?
You should be kissing him
instead of dissing him like
a punk
But you only tell me you love
me when you're drunk
You only tell me you love me
when you're drunk

All of my friends keep
asking me
Why, oh, why
do you not say goodbye?
If you don't even try
you'll be sunk
'Cause you only tell me you
love me when you're drunk

What's the meaning
when you speak with so
much feeling?
Is it over when you're sober?
is it junk?
You only tell me you love me
when you're drunk
You only tell me you love me
when you're drunk

Never been closer to heaven Never been further away
Give me hope Give me all your love
Tell me now You're coming home tonight
Have some faith In the love we share
Is it fate? Does darkness end in light?
Never been closer to heaven Never been further away

Where'd you go? Did you lose your way?
Tell me now You're coming back to stay
In my hopes Paradise is real
Horoscopes Can't forecast how we'll feel
Never been closer to heaven Never been further away

Give me hope Give me hope
Never been closer to heaven Never been further away
Give me hope Give me hope

Come on come on come on come on
Together We will go our way
Together We will leave someday
Together Your hand in my hands
Together We will make our plans
Together We will fly so high
Together Tell all our friends goodbye
Together We will start life new
Together This is what we'll do
Go West Life is peaceful there
Go West In the open air
Go West Where the skies are blue
Go West This is what we're gonna do

Together We will love the beach
Together We will learn and teach
Together Change our pace of life
Together We will work and strive
I know you love me
How could I disagree
I make no protest
You will do the rest
Go West Life is peaceful there
Go West In the open air
Go West Baby you and me
Go West This is our destiny
Go West Sun in wintertime
Go West We will do just fine
Go West Where the skies are blue
Go West this is what we're gonna do
There where the air is free
We'll be We'll be
what we want to be
Now if we make a stand
We'll find We'll find
our promised land
I know that There are many ways
To live there In the sun or shade
Together We will find a place
To settle Where there's so much space
Without rush And the pace back east
The hustling Rustling just to feed
I know I'm Ready to leave too
So that's what We are gonna do
What we're gonna do is
Go West Life is peaceful there
Go West There in the open air
Go West Where the skies are blue
Go West This is what we're gonna do
Life is peaceful there
Go West In the open air
Go West Baby you and me
Go West This is our destiny
Come on come on come on come on
Go West Sun in wintertime
Go West We will feel just fine
Go West Where the skies are blue
Go West This is what we're gonna do
Come on come on come on
Go West

Go West
Go West
Go West

Let's not go home, we'll catch the late train
I've got enough money to pay all the way
When the postman calls, he'll deliver the letter
I've explained everything; it's better that way

(Divided by, divided by)
I think they heard a rumour
(Divided by, divided by)
Or someone tipped them off
(Divided by, divided by)
It's better to go sooner
(Divided by, divided by)
Than call it all off

We'll catch a plane to New York,
and a cab going down
Cross the bridges and tunnels,
straight into town
Tomorrow morning we'll be miles away
On another continent and another day

(Divided by, divided by) Let's not go home
(Divided by, divided by) Or call it a day
(Divided by, divided by) You won't be alone
(Divided by, divided by) Let's run away

Let's run away

So why hang around for the deed to be done
You can give it all up for a place in the sun
When the postman calls we'll be miles away
On a plane to New York and another day

(Divided by, divided by)
I think they heard a rumour
