You walk in the room
The folks are all there With glasses in hand But you can't take the band So you head for the bar The barman's well stocked He knows where you're at He offers a drink But you can't take none of that (No you can't take none of that) Everybody's having fun So why be the one Who's out in the cold It's not good enough You made a deal with yourself You said you'd never take another drop Your craving's big, your livers shot You'd give a million for a solitary drop You take your first belt It tastes like pure hell The second one drops Intentions are shot Well you think you might as well You take another sip You get to likin' it The music sounds hip So you head for the floor (So you head for the floor) Yea yea yea yea yea Well you step out on the dance floor And you grab at your boss's wife You've been longing to hold her close For the whole of your working life And the band played on Move your ass Well your hostess is lookin' mad As your hands start to wander And your boss is gonna get you now He's gonna put you six feet under You get walked out the door And your feet don't touch the floor You're never gonna see 'em no more The dawn starts to break Your heads a big ache You're lyin' in bed You're back from the dead And your mouth feels like old leather (Old leather) Never do it again (You'll never do it again) Everyone was havin' fun But you were the one Kicked out in the cold You slept in your clothes You let 'em down Down at the club You know your confidence got to take the rub Your boss is sore You've had your chance He says he never wants to see you again Don't want to see you again (Don't want to see you again) You've got to dry out The boys have found out It's the end of the line But it's martini time So you head for the bar..r...r..r..r..r Oh where am I now |

I treat you like a woman
So treat me like a man I took you to a better place And helped you understand [CHORUS] So don't squeeze me like toothpaste Like putty in your hands I'm gonna go away, I'm gonna blow away A woman is a woman And a man is just a fool It takes all of the heartaches And life can be so cruel [CHORUS] Who's gonna be there when the morning comes? Head on the pillow, smiling at me I get up and make the coffee It must be love, it must be love Who's gonna be there when the morning comes? Head on the pillow, smiling at me I get up and make the coffee It must be love, it must be love I treat you like a woman So treat me like a man I took you to a better place And helped you understand [CHORUS] |

I was walkin' down the street Concentratin' on truckin' right I heard a dark voice beside of me And I looked round in a state of fright I saw four faces one mad A brother from the gutter They looked me up and down a bit And turned to each other I say I don't like cricket oh no I love it I don't like cricket no no I love it Don't you walk thru my words You got to show some respect Don't you walk thru my words 'Cause you ain't heard me out yet Well he looked down at my silver chain He said I'll give you one dollar I said You've got to be jokin' man It was a present from me Mother He said I like it I want it I'll take it off your hands And you'll be sorry you crossed me You'd better understand that you're alone A long way from home And I say I don't like reggae no no I love it I don't like reggae oh no I love it Don't you cramp me style Don't you queer on me pitch Don't you walk thru my words 'Cause you ain't heard me out yet I hurried back to the swimming pool Sinkin' pina coladas I heard a dark voice beside me say Would you like something harder She said I've got it you want it My harvest is the best And if you try it you'll like it And wallow in a Dreadlock Holiday And I say Don't like Jamaica oh no I love her Don't like Jamaica oh no I love her oh yea Don't you walk thru her words You got to show some respect Don't you walk thru her words 'Cause you ain't heard her out yet I don't like cricket I love it (Dreadlock Holiday) I don't like reggae I love it (Dreadlock Holiday) Don't like Jamaica I love her (Dreadlock Holiday |

I took my fantasy to Deborah You know she's always been a friendly girl You'll see her cruise the Picadilly streets And she winks at every man she meets I've been a fan of hers for quite a time I tried to pull her with a bummer line I asked her would she like a cigarette And she said let's go to bed ('cause that's what you want) And so I went And I was shocked I was so green Ground I wish you'd swallow me up She had to laugh I nearly died Some Superstud! There's more to this than meets the eye I hurried back to read the manual through You know the one that tells you what to do But all I needed was the confidence To start and break the ice Experience would be a boon for life And Debbie smiled as I came strolling by I said I'd like to have a second shot And I'd give it all I've got And with a twinkle in her eye She led me by the hand Through a door to a room Above a Soho restaurant And she smiled and told me Not to look so serious But by the time she'd talked me down I was delerious, I was away I had to window shop in Amsterdam But down the Troubador in Hollywood I found a lover who was bold enough To live my fantasy (this isn't a dream) I was away Up in the blue Emmanuelle How you gonna make it in a jet The need to shock Was coming through Where would it end You'll never know |

You went out on the street without your shoes on You didn't listen what your momma said She said you won't feel the benefit, won't feel the benefit And if we all went out without our shoes on Tell me where would we be, where would we be If all the people in the world lost their reason What would we see, where would we be If all the entertainers in the world lost their music What would they play, what could they say To pacify the crowd, to justify themselves Won't feel the benefit You're like a cloud behind the sun Like the face behind the clown You're moving like the wrinkles in a frown And you can never look back A leaf that's borne upon the wind A cardboard suitcase in your hand The wanderer soon returns And finds the colour of the grass is just the same On the other side of the tracks, oh no ["A" LATIN BREAK] Ooh when you smile it's like a holiday Ooh pack your bags and we can get away We'll float on a Queen down to Rio There's no need to shave We'll be stinking like rum in a punch You can walk on the water You can dabble in the mumbo jumbo You can smoke a little ganja Float like a cloud over Rio, Rio You can ride with the Gauchos Swinging your bolas in a red bandana You can run with the devil Takin' your chances with Senorita You can drink a lot of coffee in Brazil But the bill is gonna make you ill FEEL THE BENEFIT So, you can go out on the street and take your chances But if you do, you better do it right Or you won't feel the benefit, won't feel the benefit Spin the wheel and take your chances And your number might come up Though the odds may be in favor of the house If all the people in the world would say together We're all black and white, we're all day and night If all the people in the world could sing together How would it sound, what would we feel We'd all feel the benefit |

Well I knew I was looking cool Pretty sharp like a razor razor (uh huh, uh huh) She was smiling at me So I said if you got the notion We could take a little trip to the ocean She said that'll be OK 'Cause I'm hot to trot We were having a ball by the water Talking about life and philosophizing (uh huh, uh huh) She was really talking to me She said I can't understand why you gotta hustle Struttin' and posin' and flexin' muscle So I said, well that's easy baby I'm hot to trot |

The place was on fire The smoke was a-growing And the flames were getting higher The fire chief was shouting As he knocked down my door He said you better move your butt boy Or you'll knock on heaven's door I'm so laid back, I'm laid out I'm so caved in and spaced out I'm wired to the teeth I'm fused to the floor So baby don't you bug me no more Don't you bug me no more The rent needing paying The insurance was due The roof needing fixing And the rain was coming through But the forecast is sunny So I'll stay here on my back Tomorrow is another day It's cozy in the sack I'm so laid back, I'm laid out I'm so caved in and spaced out I'm wired to the teeth I'm fused to the floor So baby don't you bug me no more Don't you bug me no more There were times when you wanted to be number one And the glamour and the glitter were turning him on But he realized that it was better to be number two (ooh) My luxury is living 'Cause I can't afford to die I'm a diletantic mother With a twinkle in my eye Let the others do the running I'm content to take a cut Percentages are burning And I'm happy in my rut I'm so laid back, I'm laid out I'm so caved in and spaced out I'm wired to the teeth I'm fused to the floor So baby don't you bug me no more Don't you bug me no more No more, no more, no more, [etc.] |

Last Night You know you really really made me appreciate my life When you took me to the seventh floor And closed the door I didn't stand a chance Oh oh that night When my conscience was losing in that age old fight Now I've always been a non-believer A true deceiver A hit and run romance Don't you know that when we turned out the light We were riding on the crest of a tidal wave Like we were ships in the night Going nowhere Last night When the feeling was missing but the mood was right From the moment we took the floor I knew for sure We'd play the parts we're expected to I've done it so many times Man we're all inmates of the human zoo Our bodies in control of our minds I played the jester and you played the fool You kept forgetting your lines I had to prompt you with a bourbon or two Huh, you planned to come all the time But when we turned out the light We were riding on the crest of a tidal wave Like we were ships in the night Going nowhere Oh last night You know you really really gave me something to write about In the morning it was just the same I'd lost again But it won't take me long to forget Oh oh last night |

He looked funny The children called him the scarecrow An old raincoat And baggy trousers and sneakers he found at the dump Oh, but if you bothered to look There was something behind the rags Oh there was a look in his eyes It was something you'd never forget He lived badly A broken shack on the railway An old moggy The only one who replied When he talked to the walls Oh we didn't understand We were fooled by the dirt on his face Oh we were human then We were searching behind his disgrace Why don't you leave me alone Why don't you go to your homes Why don't you keep to yourselves I'm tellin you Why don't you leave me alone You're never gonna realise When all you do is criticise You're never gonna make it work You never seem to get enough You crumble when its getting rough You're never gonna make it work I'm tellin' you there'll come a day You're gonna blow yourselves away It's wrong that I should interfere I just get in the way Why don't you leave me alone Why don't you go to your homes Why don't you keep to yourselves I'm tellin you Why don't you leave me alone Deep into the night He was working by the light of the candle by his bed on the theory in his head He was building from the junk that he rescued from the dump And when he turned the power on There was a sound and he was gone Oh in the gray of the dawn We discovered the thing he was working on Oh we didn't understand The future was Old Mister Time Future was Old Mister Time Future was Old Mister Time Future was Old Mister Time Old Mister Time (Mister Time, Mister Time....)

There's a fat man who offers a change of scene Says he'll guarantee my sheet will be clean When I get on the outside But who can you trust when the walls have ears I'm for takin' a chance, like a drownin' man I'm going under I've got reds in my bed I'm not easily led to the slaughter And while the cold war exists I'll stay warm with the commisar's daughter We could meet at the zoo where the tiger roams In a prison of steel He reminds me so much of the way I feel And we know that we're both in the danger zone Where the eyes of the world Full of shutters and bugs are upon us now I've got reds in my bed I get blues looking out of my window And we're never alone, there's a tap on the phone And my pillow Let me go home (There's a girl in a distant land) Let me go home (Who's nothing more than a memory) She don't know that I'm gonna be free Let me go home (You're a land full of misery) Let me go home (You're a cruel and a faceless race) I don't like your philosophy I don't like your philosophy The connections are made and the time is right So my body is walled in the shell of a car in the dead of night And I laugh through the pain and the agony As they cut me away to be born again back to humanity You've got reds in your bed There's a man lookin' over your shoulder But don't you give him your mind It's too late when you find that it's over You! Let me go home (You're a land full of misery) Let me go home (You're nothing more than a memory) I don't like your philosophy Let me go home (You're a cruel and a faceless race) Let me go home (You're nothing more than a memory) I don't like your philosophy |

I was travelling home on the subway
When this vision got on at Maida Vale And as I casually eyed the classifieds She sat down next to me Every head in the carriage was wondering I replied with a smile on my face And as I slipped into the arms of Morpheus To daydream the rest of the way She was a smooth operator You could see it in her dress I said I'd like to see you later But I didn't want to press I was homing like a scanner Did a mental strip tease But she knew that she was special And she came on like a tease Don't want love Just looking for happiness Don't want love Not looking for tenderness Don't want love Just looking for happiness Don't want love She was a headstrong woman With a demon in her blood Through the window in her eyes I saw fire in her soul And I knew if I pursued it My fingers would be burned Like a moth round a candle I was momentarily stunned Don't want love Just looking for happiness Don't want love Not looking for tenderness Don't want love Just looking for happiness Don't want love The carriage was spinning We were up on the floor She was whirling like a dervish I was whirling like a fool My reactions were dimming Like an alcoholic haze I could hear people clapping I was stumbling in a daze I was stumbling in a daze My eyes tried to focus I was suddenly aware She was newborn naked I was altogether bare There were shouts all around us There were clothes on the floor As I tried to find my senses I was sliding down the door Down a coal black tunnel I was slipping away Then I felt |

Too many broken hearts have fallen in the river Too many lonely souls have drifted out to sea, You lay your bets and then you pay the price The things we do for love, the things we do for love. Communication is the problem to the answer You've got her number and your hand is on the phone The weather's turned and all the lines are down The things we do for love, the things we do for love. Like walking in the rain and the snow When there's nowhere to go And you're feelin' like a part of you is dying And you're looking for the answer in her eyes. You think you're gonna break up Then she says she wants to make up. Ooh you made me love you Ooh you've got a way Ooh you had me crawling up the wall. Like walking in the rain and the snow When there's nowhere to go And you're feelin' like a part of you is dying And you're looking for the answer in her eyes. You think you're gonna break up Then she says she wants to make up. Ooh you made me love you Ooh you've got a way Ooh you had me crawling up the wall. A compromise would surely help the situation Agree to disagree but disagree to part When after all it's just a compromise of The things we do for love, the things we do for love.... |

Transistorised, and anodised Chrome plated, squeaky clean Oh Tokyo, oh Tokyo Oh Tokyo I love you You're trembling, you're choking But you're magical to me Oh Tokyo, oh Tokyo Oh Tokyo I love you Kimonos, and Geisha girls From grade one, down to three Oh Tokyo, oh Tokyo Oh Tokyo I love you Land of the rising sun You have taken my heart away With your beauty you nearly blinded me In your beauty I want to stay I bow to you with my heart I think of you every day When I dream you are there beside me But when I waken you're far away Perfection, in miniature With tiny hands, smiling eyes Oh Tokyo, oh Tokyo Oh Tokyo I love you Tokyo |

from 10cc - Deceptive Bends (1977)
Your nose is runnin'
And your eyes are red Your head is achin' You'd be better in bed From the bottom of your fever To the throbbing in your toes You've got a cold You've got a cold You're searching madly To find a cure But the mercury's rising To a hundred and four You've got a beauty, a bad ass The mother of them all You've got a cold You've got a cold Ain't no use in fightin' it Get into bed and try to sweat it out Hot toddies won't help you Warm blankets won't sweat it out Inhalants just choke you Hot flushes will tell you Anyway you've got it Ain't no doubt about it Nothin' new about You can scream and shout it Hot toddies won't help you Warm blankets won't sweat it out Inhalants just choke you Hot flushes will tell you Anyway you've got it Ain't no doubt about it Nothin' new about You can't fight it Foreign bodies in your Kleenex You've got no taste at all While your system is dyin' The bugs are havin' a ball You've got a beauty, a bad ass The mother of them all You've got a cold You've got a cold |
