Nouvelle Vague

When routine bites hard
And ambitions are low
And resentment rides
But emotion won't grow
And we're changing our ways
Taking different roads
Then love
love will tear us apart again
Love
love will tear us apart again
Why is the bedroom so cold
Turned away on your side
Is my timing that flawed
Every feeling run so dry
Yet there's still this appeal
That we've through our lives
And love
love will tear us apart again
Love
love will tear us apart again

you cry out in your sleep
All my failings exposed
Get a taste in my mouth
As desperation takes hold
Just it something so good
Just can't function no more
And love
love will tear us apart again
love
love will tear us apart again
love
love will tear us apart again
love
love will tear us apart again

Come closer and see
See into the trees
Find the girl
If you can

Come closer and see
See into the dark
Just follow your eyes
Just follow your eyes

I hear her voice
Calling my name
The sound is deep
In the dark

I hear her voice
And start to run
Into the trees
Into the trees

Suddenly I stop
But I know it's too late
I'm lost in a forest
All alone

The girl was never there
It's always the same
I'm running towards nothing
Again and again and again and again

And again and again and again and again
And again and again and again and again
And again and again and again and again
And again and again and again and again and again

in a manner of speaking
I just want to say
that I could never
forget the way
you told me everything
by saying nothing
in a manner of speaking
I don't understand
how love in silence
becomes reprimand
but the way that
I feel about you
is beyond words
oh give me the words
oh give me the words
that tell me nothing
oh give me the words
oh give me the words
that tell me everything
in a manner of speaking
semantics won't do
in this life that
we live we only make do
and the way that we feel might
have to be sacrified
so in a manner of speaking
I just want to say
that just like you
I should find a way
to tell you everything
by saying nothing
oh give me the words
oh give me the words
that tell me nothing
oh give me the words
oh give me the words
that tell me everything
oh give me the words
oh give me the words
that tell me nothing
oh give me the words
oh give me the words
that tell me everything

This is not a love song
Happy to have Not to have not
Big business is Very wise
I'm crossing over
into Enter prize
This is not a love song
This is not a love song
This is not a love song
This is not a love song
I'm adaptable
And I like my new role
I'm getting better and better
And I have a new goal
I'm changing my ways
Where money applies
This is not a love song
This is not a love song
This is not a love song
This is not a love song
This is not a love song
I'm going over
to the over side
I'm happy to have
Not to have not
Big business is Very wise
I'm inside free Enter prise
This is not a love song
This is not a love song
This is not a love song
This is not a love song
Not television
Behind the curtain
Out of the cupboard
You take the first train
Into the big world
Are you ready
to grab the candle
Not television
This is not a love song
This is not a love song
This is not a love song
This is not a love song

Out of bed at eight AM
Out my head by half past ten
Out with mates and dates and friends
That's what I do at weekends

I can't talk and I can't walk
But I know where I'm going to go
I'm going watch my money go
At the Locarno

When my feet go through the door
I know what my right arm is for
Buy a drink and pull a chair
Up to the edge of the dance floor

Bouncers bouncing through the night
Trying to stop or starts a fight
I sit and watch the flashing lights
Moving legs in footless tights

I go out on Friday night
And I come home on Saturday Morning
I go out on Friday night
And I come home on Saturday Morning

I like to venture into town
I like to get a few drinks down
The floor gets packed the bar gets full
I don't like life when things get dull

The hen praty have saved the night
And freed themselves from drunken stags
Having fun and dancing
In a circle round their leather bags

I go out on Friday night
And I come home on Saturday Morning
I go out on Friday night
And I come home on Saturday Morning

But two o'clock has come again
It's time to leave this paradise
Hope the chip shop isn't closed
Cos' their pies are really nice

I'll eat in the taxi queue
Standing in someone else's spew
Wish I had lipstick on my shirt
Instead of piss stains on my shoes

I go out on Friday night
And I come home on Saturday morning
I go out on Friday night
And I come home on Saturday morning

I go out on Friday night
And I come home on Saturday morning
I go out on Friday night
And I come home on Saturday morning

You're alone in the pack
You're feeling like you want to go home
You're feeling unfinished but you keep on going

The reason is there
You'll be falling 'til your feet are gone
Because your living a hoax
Sell us what you suss

Draw your brain, a sick inspiration
Your pill illusion
And then you follow a transfer
If you don't know the game
Then you're still part of it
Because out on the streets
It's strange

Dodge the bullet or carry the gun
The choice is yours

Yeah, yeah!

Look at the controller
A nazi with a social degree
A middle-class hero
Rapist with your eyes on me
You pay some masturbation
A priest cheers for the nuns you fuck
You'd wipe out spastics if you had the chance
But Jesus, Jesus
Jesus wouldn't like it, no
Jesus wouldn't like it, no

Are teenage dreams so hard to beat?
Everytime she walks down the street
Another girl in the neighbourhood
Wish she was mine, she looks so good

I wanna hold you, wanna hold you tight
Get teenage kicks right through the night

I'm gonna call her on the telephone
Invite her over 'cause I'm all alone
I need excitement and I need it bad
And it's the best I've ever had

I wanna hold you, wanna hold you tight
Get teenage kicks right through the night

I wanna hold you, wanna hold you tight
Get teenage kicks right through the night

I wanna hold you, wanna hold you tight
Get teenage kicks right through the night

Moving forward using all my breath
Making love to you was never second best
I saw the world thrashing all around your face
Never really knowing it was always mesh and lace

I'll stop the world and melt with you
You've seen the difference
and it's getting better all the time
There's nothing you and I won't do
I'll stop the world and melt with you

Dream of better lives the kind which never hate
Dropped in the state of imaginary grace
I made a pilgrimage to save this humans race
Yes I did
What I'm comprehending a race that long gone bye

I'll stop the world and melt with you
You've seen the difference
and it's getting better all the time
There's nothing you and I won't do
I'll stop the world and melt with you

The future's open wide
I'll stop the world and melt with you
You've seen the difference
and it's getting better all the time
There's nothing you and I won't do
I'll stop the world and melt with you, yeah
I'll stop the world and melt with you
I'll stop the world and melt with you, yeah, yeah

Making Plans For Nigel
(feat. Camille)
(XTC)

We're only making plans for Nigel
We only want what's best for him
We're only making plans for Nigel
Nigel just needs this helping hand

And if young Nigel says he's happy
He must be happy
He must be happy
He must be happy in his work

We're only making plans for Nigel
He has his future in a british steel
We're only making plans for Nigel
Nigel's whole future is as good as sealed

And if young Nigel says he's happy
He must be happy
He must be happy
He must be happy in his work

Nigel is not outspoken
But he likes to speak
And loves to be spoken to
Nigel is happy in his work
Nigel is happy in his work

In a sea of faces, in a sea of doubt
In this cruel place your voice above the maelstrom
In the wake of this ship of fools
I'm falling further down
If you can see me, Marian, reach out and take
me home...

I hear you calling Marian
Across the water
Across the wave
I hear you calling Marian
Can you hear me calling you to
Save me, Save me, save me from the grave...
Marian
Marian

There's a weight above me
And the pressure is all too strong
To breathe deep, breathe long and hard
To take the water down and go to sleep
To sink still further baneath the fatal wave
Marian I think I'm drowning
This sea is killing me

I hear you calling Marian
Across the water
Across the wave
I hear you calling Marian
Can you hear me calling you to
Save me, save me, save me from the grave...

Marian
Marian
Marian
Marian

Went to a party
I danced all night
I drank sixteen beers
And I started up a fight

But now I am jaded
You're out of luck
I'm rolling down the stairs
Too drunk to fuck

Too drunk to fuck
Too drunk to fuck
Too drunk, to fuck
I'm too drunk, too drunk, too drunk to fuck

I love your stories
I like your gun
Shooting out truck tires
Sounds like loads and loads of fun

But in my room
Wish you were dead
You ball like the baby
In Eraserhead

Too drunk to fuck
Too drunk to fuck
Too drunk to fuck
I'm too drunk, too drunk, too drunk to fuck

Too drunk to fuck
Hmm
Too drunk to fuck
I'm too drunk, too drunk, too drunk to fuck

Oh je suis trop bourree
Pour baiser
