Snow is falling all around
Seven o'clock and the roads are blocked So I walk down town There's no one around I walk in a bar and immediately I sense danger You look at me, girl, as if I was some kind of a total stranger Where did you get that blank expression on your face? The streets are dark and there's no one about I wander home and all the lights are out I keep wondering Where did you get that blank expression on your face? |

Mum bought you a fur
Coat when you were fifteen You wore it to the disco, But everyone was in jeans But you were a rich girl, And only having fun Your low cut dresses, Brought stares from everyone Hey, little rich girl where did you go wrong? You left for London, When you were nineteen Had to pull off your nice clothes, Just living on dreams A man in the bright lights Took all that you own Now he's taken your freedom For a fate unknown But you were a rich girl, Hardly having fun Your worn out dresses, Brought stares from everyone Hey, little rich girl where did you go wrong? Hey, little rich girl you've been away for so long And now little rich girl, my words are in this song Hey, little rich girl my love for you is gone And now little rich girl, I know where you went wrong At your dad's office party All the movies were blue Caused him so much heart ache, Because the screen star was you You left for London, When you were nineteen Had to pull off your nice clothes, But you were living on dreams You were a rich girl, And only having fun But your worn out dresses, Brought stares from everyone Hey, little rich girl where did you go wrong? Hey, little rich girl where did you go wrong? Hey, little rich girl where did you go wrong? |

When I woke up this morning alone in my bed
In a cold room with damp sheets, and a pain in my head I saw you last night and you drove me insane Why must you hurt me again and again I've had enough, if I don't come back for more that's tough 'Cos I can't stand it, the way you've planned it No I can't stand it any longer Sometimes I get so I tired I can't get no sleep I'm so drunk I can't stand up on my own two feet I'm feeling so hungry I don't want to eat You make me so angry I can't even speak I'll stay at home where I can be alone Because I just can't stand it, the way you've planned it No I can't stand it any longer Try not to cry as I lie in the rain Feel like walking through walls just to get back home again I saw you last night and I'll see you again Maybe you're trying to drive me insane I've had enough, if I don't come back for more that's tough 'Cos I can't take it any more I'm going home where I can be alone Because I just can't stand it, no I can't stand it No I can't stand it any longer Goodnight Terry Goodnight Rhoda |

We danced and sang, And the music played inna de boomtown This town, is coming like a ghost town Why must the youth fight against themselves? Government leaving the youth on the shelf This place, is coming like a ghost town No job to be found in this country Can't go on no more The people getting angry This town, is coming like a ghost town This town, is coming like a ghost town This town, is coming like a ghost town This town, is coming like a ghost town |

Dammers
Good evening ladies and gentlemen, this is your captain speaking Welcome aboard DC-10 flight number 1313 We will be cruising at a height of 25,000 feet at an air speed of 600 miles per hour Headphones will be provided by request for a varied program of in flight music Have a good flight. Safety belts and sickness bags, jet lag downer pills Duty free, booze and fags make me feel ill A vapour trail from A to B, away from normal sanity It all seems so absurd to me. I've seen the carpets on the walls Of hotels rooms around the world I never want to hear the screams Of the teenage girls in other peoples dreams. Spread the disease from the south China Sea to the beach hotel Malibu Phone my girlfriend to ask her : 'How's her weekend ?' I say : 'Hi, Terry here' - and she says : 'Terry, who (the hell are you ?)'. The businessmen are having fun Are they on a different plane to me ? I've lost touch with reality They all seem so absurd to me Like well dressed chimpanzees Spend and spend and spend and spend Will the muzak never end ? Ladies and gentlemen, this is your captain speaking Due to expected engine failures we will be forced to attempt an emergency landing Please remain seated, extinguish all cigarettes and fasten safety belts Follow the emergency procedures laid out in the pamphlet located in front of your seats For normal breathing, oxygen masks will be released from the compartment above your head Please, remain calm and follow the instructions of your stewardess at all times This is a recording ... |

You're working at your leisure to learn the things you'll need
The promises you make tomorrow will carry no guarantee I've seen your qualifications, you've got a Ph.D. I've got one art O level, it did nothing for me. Working for the rat race You know you're wasting your time Working for the rat race You're no friend of mine You plan your conversation to impress the college bar Just talking about your mother and daddy's Jaguar Wear your political t-shirt and sacred college scarf Discussing the world's situation but just for a laugh You'll be working for the rat race You know you're wasting your time Working for the rat race You're no friend of mine Working for the rat race You know you're wasting your time Working for the rat race You're no friend of mine Just working at your leisure to learn the things you won't need The promises you make tomorrow will carry no guarantee I've seen your qualifications, you've got a Ph.D. I've got an art O level, it did nothing for me. Working for the rat race You know you're wasting your time Working for the rat race You're no friend of mine |

Better think of your future. Time you straighten right out, Creating problems in town. Rudy, a message to you Rudy. A message to you. Stop your fooling around. Time you straighten right out.

Snow is falling all around, seven o'clock and the roads are blocked
So I walk down town, there's no-one around I walk in a bar and immediately I sense danger You look at me girl as if I was some kind of a, a total stranger Where did you get that blank expression on your face? Where did you get that blank expression on your face? The streets are dark, and there's no-one about I wander home and all the ,the lights are out, I keep wondering Where did you get that blank expression on your face? Where did you get that blank expression on your face? Where did you get that blank expression on your face? Where did you get that blank expression on your face? ------------- Lyrics Powered by LyricFind Written By J. DAMMERS, SPECIALS <i>Lyrics © PLANGENT VISIONS MUSIC INC.</i> |

I'm going out tonight
I don't know if I'll be alright Everyone wants to hurt me Baby danger in the city I have to carry a knife Because there's people threatening my life I can't dress just the way I want I'm being chased by the national front Concrete jungle, animals are after me Concrete jungle, it ain't safe on the streets Concrete jungle, glad I got my mates with me I won't fight for a cause don't want to change the law Leave me alone, just leave me alone I want to get out on my own I'm walking home tonight I only walk where there's lots of lights In the alleys and the doorways Some throw a bottle right in your face Concrete jungle, animals are after me Concrete jungle, it ain't safe on the streets Concrete jungle, glad I got my mates with me I'm walking home tonight I only walk where there's lots of lights In the alleys and the doorways Some throw a bottle right in your face I won't fight for a cause I don't want to change the law Leave me alone, just leave me alone I want to get out on my own Concrete jungle, animals are after me Concrete jungle, it ain't safe on the streets Concrete jungle, glad I got my mates with me ------------- Lyrics Powered by LyricFind Written By R.

All you punks and all you teds
National Front and natty dreads Mods, rockers, hippies and skinheads Keep on fighting 'til you're dead Who am I to say? Who am I to say? Am I just a hypocrite, Another piece of your bullshit Am I the dog that bit The hand of the man that feeds it? Do the dog, do the dog Do the dog, not the donkey Do the dog, don't be a jerk Do the dog, watch who you work for Do the do the do the do the dog Everybody's doing the dog Take your F.A. aggravation Fight it out on New Street Station Master racial masturbation Causes National Front frustration Who am I to say? To the IRA To the UDA Soldier boy from UK Am I just a hypocrite? Another piece of your bullshit Am I the dog that bit The hand of the man that feeds it? Do the dog, do the dog Do the dog, not the donkey Do the dog, don't be a jerk Do the dog, watch who you work for Do the do the do the do the dog, Do the do the do the do the dog, Do the do the do the do the dog, Everybody's doing the dog. |

Just because you're nobody
It doesn't mean that you're no good Just because there's a reason It doesn't mean it's understood It doesn't make it alright It doesn't make it alright It's the worst excuse in the world And it, it doesn't make it alright Some people think they're really clever To smash your head against the wall Then they say "you got it my way" They really think they know it all It doesn't make it alright It doesn't make it alright It's the worst excuse in the world And it, it doesn't make it alright Just because you're a black boy Just because you're a white It doesn't mean you've got to hate him It doesn't mean you've got to fight It doesn't make it alright It doesn't make it alright It's the worst excuse in the world And it, it doesn't make it alright Just because you're nobody ------------- Lyrics Powered by LyricFind Written By M.

If you ever hear a noise in the night your body starts to sweat, it shakes and shivers in fright you go and sleep with your mother she hates you guts she knows that you love her so she holds you tight all through the night in to the broad daylight And when she doesn't come home you'll have to sleep alone then you wet your bed and I think that's sad for a girl of 19 it's more than sad, it's obscene! 1,2 And your girlfriend sweet little 17 she's got her layered hair and her flared jeans you know what that means, she's just a little queen she shares your London flat she thinks that London's where it's at Although it stinks and when it rains you wear your hat and your plum colored pvc wet- look maxi mac You tie your ginger hair back in a bun you're the ugliest creature, under the sun! 1,2 Go! 1,2 And you think it's about time that you died, and I agree so you decide on suicide you tried but you never quite carried it out you only wanted to die in order to show off and if you think you're gonna bleed all over me you're even wronger than you'd normaly be And the only things you want to see are kitsch And the only thing you want to be is rich Your little pink up-pointed nose begins twitch I know you know you're just a little bitch! 1,2 |
