Hey, I'm not the type To say one thing and do another And if it's all right I'd kind Of like to be your lover 'Cos when you're with me I can't help but be So desperately Uncontrollably Happy!
And hey, I'm not the kind To fall in love without good reason And if that's a crime Then baby I'm committing high treason 'Cos when you're with me I'm absolutely And totally Quite uncontrollably Happy!
And hey, I'm not so blind That I can't see where we're all going And it's no fault of mine If humankind reaps what it is sowing Just as long as we are together Forever I'll never be anything other than Happy!
Hey, don't be suprised, if millions die in plague and murder True happiness lies beyond your fries and happy burger
I told the stars above about the one I love I told the morning sun, yeah I'm telling everyone I told my mum and dad, they seemed to understand And I'll get through to you if it's the last thing that I do
Everybody knows that I love you Everybody knows that I need you Everybody knows that I do except you
I told all of my friends again and again and again I drove them round the bend so now you're my only friend I told the passers by, I made a small boy cry And I'll get through to you if it's the last thing that I do
Everybody knows I live for you Everybody knows I adore you Everybody knows that it's true except you
If you were the road I'd go all the way If you were the night I'd sleep in the day If you were the day I'd cry in the night 'Cause you are the way The truth and the light If you were a tree I could put my arms around you And you could not complain If you were a tree I could carve my name into your side And you would not cry, 'Cos trees don't cry
If you were a man I would still love you If you were a drink I'd drink my fill of you If you were attacked I would kill for you If your name was Jack I'd change mine to Jill for you If you were a horse I'd clean the crap out of your stable And never once complain If you were a horse I could ride you through the fields at dawn Through the day until the day was gone I could sing about you in my songs As we rode away into the setting sun
If you were my little girl I would find it hard to let you go If you were my sister I would find it doubly so If you were a dog I'd feed you scraps from off the table Though my wife complains If you were my dog I am sure you'd like it better Then you'd be my loyal four legged friend You'd never have to think again And we could be together till the end
If I were you I'd look at me And fail to see the things I see in you If I were you and if I were you I wouldn't let the shit you get From me get the better of you If I were you
Don't you ever wonder why I could never make you cry?
Well, if I were you I'd ride away To a pasture new where I could graze On the grass so succulent and sweet If I were you I'd be through with me
If I were you I wouldn't need To always read the magazines that I do Huh, they make me blue! So if I were you I'd make the break Before I take my frustrations out on you Just break on through
Don't you ever, in your dreams Take a lover and make her scream?
Well, if I were you I'd ride away To a pasture new where I could graze On the grass so succulent and sweet If I were you I'd be through with me
Well, if I were you I'd ride away To a pasture new where I could graze On the green, green grass Of virgin country I'd live real fast and die real young You see if I were you I'd end my days In a field of stupid sheep just grazing The grass so succulent and sweet If I were you I'd be through with me
When I fall asleep it could be forever So I'll never fall asleep again When I fall apart put me back together And my life will be complete
Maybe it's tonight Maybe tomorrow night Next week Next month Next year We've only time to fear
When I fall behind in the quest for pleasure I shall treasure this short time with you We shall not be chained We shall not be tethered And we'll never be unkind
If I fall in love it could be forever So I'll never fall in love But the moment I can feel that you feel that way too Is when I might fall in love with you Fall in love with you
First you look so strong, Then you fade away. The sun will burn my eyes, I love you anyway. Thirsting for your smile I watched you for a while. You are a vapour trail In a deep blue sky
La la la la la La la la la la La la la la la La la la la
Tremble with a sigh, Glitter in your eye, You seem to come and go I never seem to know. And all my time Is yours as much as mine. We never have enough Time to share our lives.
La la la la la La la la la la La la la la la La la la la
They sit and watch the clouds go by The London Irish The London Irish And they believe it's Irish sky The London Irish The London Irish
They love the sun but pray for rain The London Irish Yeah, the London Irish They drink to take away the pain The London Irish The London Irish
The London streets are paved with gold For the London Irish Oh, the London Irish You gain the world and you lose your soul Well if you'll picture a scene On every magazine And every TV screen Will there be anything left of the London Irish London Irish
They say they will return again The London Irish Mmm, the London Irish But they won't say exactly when
The London Irish The London Irish The London Irish The London Irish
Moons in June I’ve given up on that stuff Alms and charms But I’ve no hope of falling in love The rest of life pales in significance I’m looking for somebody With whom to dance
With whom to dance With whom to dance I’m looking for somebody With whom to dance
Rings and strings What use have I for these things? Bells and carousels Oh, I’d just be fooling myself The rest of life pales in significance I’m looking for somebody With whom to dance
With whom to dance With whom to dance I’m looking for somebody With whom to dance
And you, you look like heaven An angel who stepped from a dream Seven hundred and seventy seven times lovelier Than anything I’ve ever seen The rest of life pales in significance I’m looking for somebody with whom to dance
With whom to dance With whom to dance I’m looking for somebody With whom to dance
My parents knew these people who for all their faults were very nice They owned a farm whose old world charm earned it the name of Paradise We came to stay one holiyda, we played crocquet and burned our arms But I was charmed and lost for words when I first heard the birds of paradise farm
Singing their songs all the day long Making love to the dinner gong Wondering when their human friends Would come to feed them
I looked in the trees and in the air I searched the eves of disused barns Till finally, to my despair, I found the caged birds of paradise farm
Singing their songs all the day long Making love to the dinner gong Wondering why their tiny lives should be spent behind iron bars
Now Leonardo da Vinci, St Francis of Assisi But Neil Hannon of the Seahouse, Fivemiletown It doesn't sound quite right, somehow
Singing their songs all the day long Making love to the dinner gong Wondering when their human friend Would come to free them
When the last day came I took my time they called my name and read the card "When Nature Calls You Must Reply" They laughed waving goodbye to paradise farm.

An ordinary day down on Festive Road The children will play and never will know That when Mr Benn of No.52 Walks in through that door peculiar events will ensue
The shopkeeper peers through spectacles round As Benn wanders in and shuts out the town The shopkeeper wears his customary grin 'Cause he knows when they go to try on his clothes Each fantasy chosen begin...

Bernice bobs her hair in the barber's in the square All her new-found friends are there to see it done Bernice bobs her hair she's been driven to despair 'Cause her cousin doesn't care about anyone Her hair was long, her hair was dark Her hair fell down her back And now it lies upon the floor Bernice runs out the door
Marjorie had told her what to wear to the parties Marjorie had told her what to say to the boys Now Marjorie was jealous of her social advances And presented her with this choice Bernice, bob your hair You've persistently declared this intention Do you dare to disagree? So Bernice bobs her hair and is instantly ensnared In a trap so well prepared by Marjorie Her hair was long, her hair was dark Her hair fell down her back The mirror tells of her mistake Her heart is fit to break So when it's dark and her cousin sleeps Into the room she creeps Marjorie's curls come down like rain Bernice runs for her train
I... I was born yesterday And I believe all that you say I have no choice I must obey you Is this the first or the second day Of the rest of my life Well hey Why should I care either way If what you say is true? Saturday morning, 18th of December I cannot remember The last time that I saw such a young ballerina In love with the loveless In tune with a tuneless old upright piano Standing en pointe Going through each position with gentle precision She measures each movement Her classical features and elegant waistline Are going to waste while she pleases her parents I... I was born yesterday And I believe all that you say I have no choice I must obey you Is this the first or the second day Of the rest of my life Well hey Why should I care either way If what you say is true? What if they die on the road to Rathmines Where a dog in two minds times his run to perfection An orphan at last, She'd be sick in the loo-bowl Then go to the funeral and cry by the graveside And then sleep with the first man she sees And she'd catch some disease Which she would give to her doctor She'd cook her own breakfast, and she'd cook his as well And both get on swell Even though he was married
You are a part of me I am a part of you Why should I let you walk all over me? All over me
We took your Daddy's car And drove it to the sea We fooled around for hours And then when we got tired and it got dark We found a place to park And we watched the sun set fire to the sea Can you feel the sadness in our love? It's the only kind we're worthy of Can you feel the madness in our hearts As the key turns and the engine starts? We took your Daddy's car And drove it into town We steamed into a bar And we bought the biggest bottle of champagne And driving through the rain we sang 'God bless this car, and all who sail in her!' Can you feel the sadness in our love? It's the only kind we're worthy of Can you feel the madness in our hearts As the key turns and the engine starts? We took your Daddy's car And wrapped it round a tree We didn't know what for We didn't feel like driving any more It was so good we got bored And we are driving from the day we are born
Can you feel the sadness in our love? It's the only kind we're worthy of Can you feel the madness in our hearts As the key turns and the engine starts? Can you feel lengine starts
Hello What would you like to know? What would you like to hear? What if I just disappear inside myself? Hello What would you like to know? Who would you like to see? Who would you like me to be if not myself? And the Europop (pop) makes me dizzy And I just can't stop (stop) 'til it's finished And I don't know what (what) you find funny 'Bout the Europop and the love of money
Hello Where is it cool to go? When is it cool to leave? What is it cool to breathe inside myself? Hello Don't tell me what I already know Don't show me what I've already seen Don't take me where I've already been inside myself And the Europop (pop) makes me dizzy And I just can't stop (stop) 'til it's finished And I don't know what (what) you find funny 'Bout the Europop and the love of money Financial gain is a very pleasant thing But the transitory pleasure that it brings Counts for nothing
So What is there left to know? What is there left to say? Nothing
And the Europop (pop) makes me dizzy And I just can't stop (stop) 'til it's finished And I don't know what (what) you find funny 'Bout the Europop and the love of money And I thank God that you're aware Oh thank God that you're aware Of the earth and of the air And of the girls making like they don't care But they are blessed and you are cursed With the conscience of a universe Of the mind and of the soul And reduction science digging itself a hole And I thank God that you're aware Oh thank your God that you're aware It's taken time but I'll think you'll find That everything is alright
