I betcha thought we couldn't do it. And if you did we wouldn't try
I betcha thought we couldn't do it. But if we didn't we would die We built our house stone by stone. Little help, we were on our own Made the town, torn it down. Now you know, tell me how it feels I betcha thought we couldn't do it. And if you did we wouldn't try I betcha thought we couldn't do it. But if we didn't we would die We've been waiting such a long long time. To fit the pattern, fill the rhyme Now we can't stick in our old ways. Now it's out we'll see how you feel I betcha thought we couldn't do it. And if you did we wouldn't try I betcha thought we couldn't do it. But if we didn't we would die |

Running away, I'll leave you my address,
don't want you to reply to anybody Forward my mail to the next place I'll be responsible for nobody Given my best to the people I knew I'll always maintain my situation And through it all, no one told me that I was doing it for nobody Tried to forget everything that we did And thinking we did it all together How it went wrong, can't remember It doesn't matter much for nobody Nobody tells, everyone understands It's anybody for nobody Anyone for everybody I'll be responsible for nobody Taking my leave leaving many regrets I'll go without meeting understanding Maybe one day realizing That everybody is for nobody |

Who would believe me now that my hands are free,
that my hands are free I never thought it would ever come to me, ever come to me Now that my life's my own, I leave you behind, leaving you behind What ever made you think that I'd change my mind, that I'd change my mind It wasn't hard to run, break away from you, break away from you, After all you'd done, what was I to do, what was I to do Who's gonna take my place in the games you play, in the games you play Nobody's listening now to the things you say, all the things you say Now my hands are free from the ties, from the ties Now I look forward to the future, where it lies And with you, feeling low, looking black Here, now my head is clear, why should I look back When it was over did you have regrets, did you have regrets Or did you really think it was over yet, it was over yet Now that my life's my own I leave you behind, leaving you behind What ever made you think that I'd change my mind, change my mind Change my mind Change my mind |

I'm sorry to have been so much of a bore
But in my own funny way I find I learn much more. I realise what you think from your eyes, But in your own funny way I find I learn much more. My ways are strange They'll never change They stay, strange ways I'm sorry to have been so close from the start, But for all that I cared we could be miles apart. I understood that you never would Understand a way of life that I never could. My ways are strange They'll never change They stay, strange ways Go your own way or wait for me Go your own way or wait for me Go your own way or wait for me Go your own way or wait for me And so you see what happened to me Since the time when I judged my life in nights and days I realised that my life was lies So you see what I mean with all my funny ways. I'm sorry to have been so much of a bore But in my own funny way I find I learn much more Funny ways, Funny ways, Funny ways, Funny ways. |

1. Isn't it strange, oh it's funny,
working for years have no money, suddenly luck can smile on you and your life seems worth while to you. Chorus: Just how much can you spend, give it back in the end, and the time of your season, was no use, had no reason. 2. And you move, you go away and you can't come home not today. Spreading it out over the bad years, not for those men, they can't hear. Chorus: 3. Haven't had much in a long time, hoping that change is going to be mine. Don't want to go, I want to stay here, spreading it out over the bad years. Chorus: |

1. I lost my head, it was not easy,
unknown, unread, it wasn't easy, and each day, each night, wasn't wrong, nor right, I can't remember what I said I lost my head. 2. What will I feel maybe tomorrow, but time not real, hours I can borrow, so until for now, as long as how, I can't remember what I said I lost my head. (Part 2) 1. I lost my head, forget what I said, what's the use to try to deny it, I didn't think it would ever happen again, wondering why, once bitten, twice shy, never thought again would I try it, and even though maybe soon it would end, wanting to stop, but had to go on, give a little part of my person, and don't reflect, don't remember what I said, I was afraid and I stayed away making sure of my independence, isn't it true that I lost my head. Took my time and I didn't rush into anything, showed my face, just forgetting myself, I lost my head. 2. Everything's true, but everything lies, it's so hard to try to explain it, It doesn't matter it happened anyway, and for the time while someone is mine, I'll go on won't try to contain it, though never sure it could finish anyday, I lost my head, so glad that I made right or wrong, I made the decision to take my chances, give out something of me, how will I feel tomorrow? not real trying to avoid a collision, I lost my head, but today I can see. Took my time and I didn't rush into anything, showed my face, just forgetting myself, I lost my head. |

Where's the love that you once promised. Where's the pride, was it all lies?
Taking all, but giving nothing. Did you want a compromise? All these years we spent together. It was me who sold my time Now I've made my life's decision. I'll take yours so please take mine I'm turning around, there was no other way I'm turning around, taking you come what may How long did you think we'd make it. How could this affair survive? Making mine a new direction. Could we keep us both alive? All I am I have to offer. Someone new but still the same Life for us an empty shelter. Now I'll play a different game I'm turning around, there was no other way I'm turning around, taking you come what may |

1. Yes it's been hard, going a long time
and we're together even now. Why do you ask? Surely you know it! Isn't it clear just when and how. What can we tell you? At the beginning had no direction, any other way. After the fourth one, realisation, finding our road, the same as if today. 2. Well we all hear, everyone, no-one, not to not say, we like a lot. Want to be seen rock and roll music, Don't take us something that we're not. True it looks better, tide looks like turning, so all in all we feel we are alright. Yes we had troubles, much more than many, rather have none and do we think what's right. What are your plans for the future now? And can you say who does the writing then? How did you get -- who gave the name of the band? 3. Now that he's gone, turn off our faces, wait for the new man to arrive. Soon the same song, sung for the next one, saying our piece, though not alive. What can we tell you? At the beginning had no direction, any other way. After the fourth one, realisation, finding our road, the same as if today. Repeat of verse 2. |

See me, what I am, what I was, what I'll be,
Hear me, understand that I'm not what you see Take this, take the man, middle term, common me Don't you see that I'm just doing what I want to do Nothing more and nothing less than you Read no thoughts I didn't think myself Just the same as anybody else Make me someone else, put me up on a stand. Something that I don't really want on my hands Use me, idolise all you can understand Don't you see that I'm just doing what I want to do Nothing more and nothing less than you Read no thoughts I didn't think myself Just the same as anybody else Change it, what you think, what you thought, what you say Look for something more than you sought yesterday. I don't want to be part of your life to-day. Don't you see that I'm just doing what I want to do Nothing more and nothing less than you Read no thoughts I didn't think myself Just the same as anybody else |

Now the wings fell to ground as the miles they were crossed
All the years seemed like days as the time it was lost For without his solutions and reasons for why He should come up for air to the town once his by So soon on his way Shadows from the pathways Memories of old days That the journey was long many thoughts filled his mind As he neared the stop always a dream he would find But the road that he knew could no longer be seen And the city lights flickered where lake waters gleamed With sadness today Hopes of joy yesterday Memories of old days Sky and the trees of his youthful time spent Only smoke, only paper. No colour or scent With sadness today Hopes of joy yesterday Memories of old days |

Hope to be there, before it's late I need to see you, looking fine Gotta be there, mountain time Mountain time, mountain date Hope to be there, before it's late Last night I had to tell you, made up my mind I need to see you Got on the road to ride I thought all of it over, now I have to be at your side Somewhere, be there So hard seeing it your way I'm glad, what more can I say This lane taking me back today |

In my way did I use you, do you think I really abused you
On reflection now it doesn't matter: How can you say I made you need me more than anyone else Who can say it right now it's finished over: It's my act, it's my calling, I explained exactly the falling Different ways of life can never even: Be the same when you saw me, could you always take me the same way as I came and went I tried to remember you: Still you stay Tied in your way Changing times Watching the signs How: Could you see in me what you thought about all you want me to be Now: On reflection why should have I changed my ways for you All around all around Cry my sympathy's with you but I never lied to you all in all it seems it's just an experience: Placed my cards on the table told of everything I was able, Understanding still not anything different: Find another to lean on, start again for I should have long gone, on reflection now it's just an experience. Soon the pain will have ended, together never intended, as I come and go I'll try to remember you. Look back it's not your game, together just in name. I'll remember the good things how can you forget all the years that we shared in our way: Things were changing my life, taking your place in my life and our time drifting away: All around all around |

As I hold the key to the back door
of the world I feel my Hand touching bounds never had before. I can view the power of my position and my eyes can see more than anyone in any place, I'll play the game and never ever lose. I'm the king in fighting competition and the other pieces are there for my art and my tactics now. All my games are won before they're played for I have planned that no opposition can stage a fight I'll play the game and never ever lose. My thoughts never spoken only the visions inside my head the truth never broken within my silent words left unsaid. I will steer the helm of all the nation as the captain take my rewards for all the good I'm doing now, and no words that I'm the knave will alter my philosophy for if any are heard, the games started again I'll never ever lose. |

Once I was a boy, an innocent to life and my role in it,
This world played my game, and anyone a clown or foil for myself The harmless affairs, and no-one seemed to care for any meaning My life was my own, The debt I paid, I paid it only to myself The unseeing youth, how can it be so shallow and short- sighted These years passed me by, to realise the folly of these unripe years Now I am a man, I realise My unworldly sins pained many lives Yet I heard, heard with ears that wouldn't listen And still I watched and I saw with blinkered eyes But with age the conscience slowly dawns and bonds of duty gently tied All my sins, seen through now there is experience and recollecting act in virgin guise. Master inner voices, making the choices Once I could rebel and consequences then had no reflection And I am a man, And I am bound by adult age discretion now |

My ways are strange They'll never change They stay, strange ways Go your own way or wait for me Go your own way or wait for me Go your own way or wait for me Go your own way or wait for me And so you see what happened to me Since the time when I judged my life in nights and days I realised that my life was lies So you see what I mean with all my funny ways. I'm sorry to have been so much of a bore But in my own funny way I find I learn much more Funny ways, Funny ways, Funny ways, Funny ways. |

He is the runaway
Lie low the wanted man Mask his elusive face Soon he will getaway And free is his future No more aimless time to spend And evading, he's escaping Four dirty walls and a bed in a cage his home no more. Run in the underwood Cover and hide the trail Senses like sharpened sword Guards for the shadow on his tail. And yet his joy is empty and sad. All thoughts are scarred with the prison cell And freedom seems like freedom's hell Hopes stained with strange regret His dreams are dreams for that he cannot get. And yet his joy is empty and sad. Lose all identity Vanish in own denial Seeks only lies and hide Truth never brought to trial. And caught in his own net He looks to find endless life And evading, he's escaping Four dirty walls and a bed in a cage his home no more. Run in the underwood Cover and hide the trail Senses like sharpened sword Guards for the shadow on his tail. |

Once I was a boy, an innocent to life and my role in it,
This world played my game, and anyone a clown or foil for myself The harmless affairs, and no-one seemed to care for any meaning My life was my own, The debt I paid, I paid it only to myself The unseeing youth, how can it be so shallow and short- sighted These years passed me by, to realise the folly of these unripe years Now I am a man, I realise My unworldly sins pained many lives Yet I heard, heard with ears that wouldn't listen And still I watched and I saw with blinkered eyes But with age the conscience slowly dawns and bonds of duty gently tied All my sins, seen through now there is experience and recollecting act in virgin guise. Master inner voices, making the choices Once I could rebel and consequences then had no reflection And I am a man, And I am bound by adult age discretion now |

Looking through the window can you tell me what you see.
You're sure you're really seeing what is meant to be a Glass a mirror to reflect what I conspire a vision, image I desire. Standing on the ice believing all I'm searching for Close your cloudy eyes and chase all that you did before Standing on the ice believing all I'm for Close your cloudy eyes and chase all that you did before Living in a glass house shielding all that's meant for me Can you clear the shade and can you tell me what you see. Shadow fills the light until the glass house becomes the night Dark is gleaming or am I dreaming Running everywhere Seeing clearly when I dare Is it today or is it your way And the moon must fall Inspiration waits for your call for you to get a silhouette Narrow the field aim in any direction Do what I feel just to see my reflection Any turn I know Disappearing everywhere I go I look to you for what I do And only then I see That the glass house is just for me And any time is never mine Narrow the field aim in any direction Do what I feel just to see my reflection Shadow fills the light until the glass house becomes night Dark is gleaming or am I dreaming Running everywhere Seeing clearly when I dare Is it today or is it your way And the moon must fall Inspiration waits for your call for you to get a silhouette |

All in all each man in all men
All men in each man. He can see she can't, she can see she can see whatever, whatever. You may know what I don't know, but not that I don't know it and I can't tell you so you will. To tell me all man in all men All men in each man. He can see she can't, she can see she can see whatever, whatever. You may know what I don't know, but not that I don't know it and I can't tell you so you will have to tell me all. It hurts him to think that she is hurting her by him being hurt to think that she thinks he is hurt by making her feel guilty at hurting him by her thinking she wants him to want her. Her wants her to want him to get him to want him to get him to want her she pretends. He tries to make her afraid by not being afraid. (permutations) You may know what I don't know, but not that I don't know it and I can't tell you so you will have to tell me all. I get what I deserve. I deserve what I get. I have it so I deserve it. I deserve it for I have it. I get what I deserve. What I deserve - what I deserve what I get. I have it so I deserve. He tries to make her afraid by not being afraid. Note: R.D. Laing, an eminent psychologist, has stimulated us by his intriguing, logical, poetic riddles into composing this latter-day madrigal - and something of a musical jigsaw. |

Now she sits by the riverside
Watching the waters glide by, With a sigh And the things she put faith in Are ripples just waving her by With a sigh She sees lovers pass by with much more than a kiss Ah this little girl who had everything finds she's nothing at all Now the wind seems so cold Seems all old as it laughs at her fears And her tears And as ducks swim away from her Visions of past love appear In her tears She sees love in his face as she tells him to go, And so here's a girl who had everything now she's Nothing at all What could she do if she saw him now; Now that he's gone she's losing If she could see what she's seeing now For sure she's more than just choosing Now she sits by the riverside Watching the waters glide by, With a sigh And the things she put faith in Are ripples just waving her by, With a sigh She sees lovers pass by with much more than a kiss Ah this little girl who had everything finds She's nothing at all |

Three friends are made, three lives are laughs and tears
Through years of school and play they share As time stands still the days change into years And future comes without a care. But fate and skill and chances play their part The wind of change leaves no good-bye Three boys are men their ways have drawn apart They tell their tales to justify. |

not been paved any way Cogs in cogs the machine is being left where it lay Anger and the rising murmur breaks the old circle, the wheel slowly turns around All words saying nothing the air is sour with discontent No returns have been tasted or are they ever sent Slowly burning is the fire, rising murmur breaks the old circle, the wheel slowly turns around Cogs in cogs wheel turning around, The circle tuns around, the changing voices calling circle turns around, the changing voices Slow burning is the fire rising murmur breaks the old circle, the wheel slowly turns around cogs in cogs in wheels in circles slowly turn around |

Isn't it quiet and cold walking
down the street alone? Happened I missed the bus and found I had to walk, alone. What was that? Only me. Hear the echo of my feet Footsteps Are they mine? Hear the echoes of the street. Wished I lived near at hand although I live alone, alone At least I'll find company, so why should I moan, alone? Movement Catch my eye Paper wind across the street Curtains closed Sleepy heads Wrapped together in your beds I used to walk with someone else Didn't seem to notice sights and sounds of the lonely street. I used to talk with someone else Now the only answers are the calls of the night Look at that alley cat winding home to rest, alone Half-past four and daylight shows itself once more Walking all alone Walking all alone |

In my way did I use you, do you think I really abused you
On reflection now it doesn't matter: How can you say I made you need me more than anyone else Who can say it right now it's finished over: It's my act, it's my calling, I explained exactly the falling Different ways of life can never even: Be the same when you saw me, could you always take me the same way as I came and went I tried to remember you: Still you stay Tied in your way Changing times Watching the signs How: Could you see in me what you thought about all you want me to be Now: On reflection why should have I changed my ways for you All around all around Cry my sympathy's with you but I never lied to you all in all it seems it's just an experience: Placed my cards on the table told of everything I was able, Understanding still not anything different: Find another to lean on, start again for I should have long gone, on reflection now it's just an experience. Soon the pain will have ended, together never intended, as I come and go I'll try to remember you. Look back it's not your game, together just in name. I'll remember the good things how can you forget all the years that we shared in our way: Things were changing my life, taking your place in my life and our time drifting away: All around all around |

There coming over Charaton Bridge
Look do you see the man who is poor but rich. What do you wish; and where do you go; who are you; where are you from: Will you tell me your name? Rest awhile; call me your friend. Please stay with me I'd like to help. Then he said, How can I speak when I'm dry and my throat is burning. So bring me aid and I'll answer your doubts. Friend in need I'd like your help Please take me home I'll stay with you. Then he said fair Pantagruel My name is Panurge and I have come from Hell. Look at my friend Look all around you Look at my friend Take all round you. Hey, Friend (Improvised foreign words in middle section) So brotherhood was made as their bond Carried him home and provide for his needs and his shelter; this day was done as no other the like. Faithfully their vow was made and from that day they were as one. Then he said fair Pantagruel My name is Panurge and I have come from Hell. |

He is the runaway
Lie low the wanted man Mask his elusive face Soon he will getaway And free is his future No more aimless time to spend And evading, he's escaping Four dirty walls and a bed in a cage his home no more. Run in the underwood Cover and hide the trail Senses like sharpened sword Guards for the shadow on his tail. And yet his joy is empty and sad. All thoughts are scarred with the prison cell And freedom seems like freedom's hell Hopes stained with strange regret His dreams are dreams for that he cannot get. And yet his joy is empty and sad. Lose all identity Vanish in own denial Seeks only lies and hide Truth never brought to trial. And caught in his own net He looks to find endless life And evading, he's escaping Four dirty walls and a bed in a cage his home no more. Run in the underwood Cover and hide the trail Senses like sharpened sword Guards for the shadow on his tail. |

You'll find an answer, You've got to believe in your own way
of life. So you'll have to find an answer, You'll have to find a way, Try to find, Try to find. You'll try to question her, Does she believe in the choice of your life. So you have to try to ask her, when you are away, left behind, out of mind; away. And in the end you discover, examine, you have to decide if there is an answer, if there is a way, Let her find piece of mind. And another day, all alone, think there is away at home. Every other may, have their own, way of life that is their own. And your wandering only a game to realise no joy your own. And another day, all alone, choice of life is not your own. You'll try to question her, Does she believe in the way of your life. So you have to try to ask her, You'll have to find a way, left behind, out of mind; away. |

Who would believe me now that my hands are free,
that my hands are free I never thought it would ever come to me, ever come to me Now that my life's my own, I leave you behind, leaving you behind What ever made you think that I'd change my mind, that I'd change my mind It wasn't hard to run, break away from you, break away from you, After all you'd done, what was I to do, what was I to do Who's gonna take my place in the games you play, in the games you play Nobody's listening now to the things you say, all the things you say Now my hands are free from the ties, from the ties Now I look forward to the future, where it lies And with you, feeling low, looking black Here, now my head is clear, why should I look back When it was over did you have regrets, did you have regrets Or did you really think it was over yet, it was over yet Now that my life's my own I leave you behind, leaving you behind What ever made you think that I'd change my mind, change my mind Change my mind Change my mind |

1. Isn't it strange, oh it's funny,
working for years have no money, suddenly luck can smile on you and your life seems worth while to you. Chorus: Just how much can you spend, give it back in the end, and the time of your season, was no use, had no reason. 2. And you move, you go away and you can't come home not today. Spreading it out over the bad years, not for those men, they can't hear. Chorus: 3. Haven't had much in a long time, hoping that change is going to be mine. Don't want to go, I want to stay here, spreading it out over the bad years. Chorus: |

1. Yes it's been hard, going a long time
and we're together even now. Why do you ask? Surely you know it! Isn't it clear just when and how. What can we tell you? At the beginning had no direction, any other way. After the fourth one, realisation, finding our road, the same as if today. 2. Well we all hear, everyone, no-one, not to not say, we like a lot. Want to be seen rock and roll music, Don't take us something that we're not. True it looks better, tide looks like turning, so all in all we feel we are alright. Yes we had troubles, much more than many, rather have none and do we think what's right. What are your plans for the future now? And can you say who does the writing then? How did you get -- who gave the name of the band? 3. Now that he's gone, turn off our faces, wait for the new man to arrive. Soon the same song, sung for the next one, saying our piece, though not alive. What can we tell you? At the beginning had no direction, any other way. After the fourth one, realisation, finding our road, the same as if today. Repeat of verse 2. |

In my way did I use you, do you think I really abused you
On reflection now it doesn't matter: How can you say I made you need me more than anyone else Who can say it right now it's finished over: It's my act, it's my calling, I explained exactly the falling Different ways of life can never even: Be the same when you saw me, could you always take me the same way as I came and went I tried to remember you: Still you stay Tied in your way Changing times Watching the signs How: Could you see in me what you thought about all you want me to be Now: On reflection why should have I changed my ways for you All around all around Cry my sympathy's with you but I never lied to you all in all it seems it's just an experience: Placed my cards on the table told of everything I was able, Understanding still not anything different: Find another to lean on, start again for I should have long gone, on reflection now it's just an experience. Soon the pain will have ended, together never intended, as I come and go I'll try to remember you. Look back it's not your game, together just in name. I'll remember the good things how can you forget all the years that we shared in our way: Things were changing my life, taking your place in my life and our time drifting away: All around all around |

See now, like cat then mouse, I move,
they move, the game hasn't an end. Good news soon, bad news then, I know the sound that says "nothing again". What then? The hours go past, my say is real, they say only pretend. Timing. Wait for that day, for my good. Timing. When I sell myself again. Do they all realise, the lion's share is always halfway. Wait for that day for my good. when I sell myself again. Timing. Wait for that day, for my good. Timing. When I sell myself again. See now, like cat then mouse, I move, they move, the game hasn't an end. Good news soon, bad news then, I know the sound that says "nothing again". What then? The hours go past, my say is real, they say only pretend. Timing. |

I'm sorry to have been so much of a bore
But in my own funny way I find I learn much more. I realise what you think from your eyes, But in your own funny way I find I learn much more. My ways are strange They'll never change They stay, strange ways I'm sorry to have been so close from the start, But for all that I cared we could be miles apart. I understood that you never would Understand a way of life that I never could. My ways are strange They'll never change They stay, strange ways Go your own way or wait for me Go your own way or wait for me Go your own way or wait for me Go your own way or wait for me And so you see what happened to me Since the time when I judged my life in nights and days I realised that my life was lies So you see what I mean with all my funny ways. I'm sorry to have been so much of a bore But in my own funny way I find I learn much more Funny ways, Funny ways, Funny ways, Funny ways. |

All men in each man. He can see she can't, she can see she can see whatever, whatever. You may know what I don't know, but not that I don't know it and I can't tell you so you will.

You may know what I don't know, but not that I don't know it and I can't tell you so you will have to tell me all. It hurts him to think that she is hurting her by him being hurt to think that she thinks he is hurt by making her feel guilty at hurting him by her thinking she wants him to want her. Her wants her to want him to get him to want him to get him to want her she pretends. He tries to make her afraid by not being afraid.

I have it so I deserve it. I deserve it for I have it. I get what I deserve. What I deserve - what I deserve what I get. I have it so I deserve. He tries to make her afraid by not being afraid.
