Cha Cha Cha

I asked my friend i.d.
If he could recall
The last 24 hours and the tv on the floor
Shopping with bricks
In the name of fun i'd take it back officer
But i don't know what i've done
I've had it all like raindrops in the ocean
Like shadows in the night
The devils in my head have gone away
It's a perfect day

So we turned it on, tuned it in
Got ourselves a beer
Sat down, began to watch
Everythings clear
Things degenerated we began to sing
Bart simpson says to us "elvis was king"

I've had it all been swimming in emotion
Been swallowed by the night
The devils in my head are here to stay
It's a perfect day
In a sort of pathetic way

I always run away from the things i cannot see
But when you see double, which one do you believe?
I tried to get some help, i called for my man
He popped up on the tv in a baked been can


I've had it all, like drowning in devotion
Like waiting for the night
The devils in my head have gone away

It's a perfect day
In a sort of pathetic kind of way
But fuck it
It's a perfect day
In a sort of pathetic kind of way

Many things have changed
But your absence changed it all
Many things are strange
You're the strangest of them all
I count the times it's rained
In the summer before the fall
Like nothing before felt the world was cruel
Had a feeling inside
Hurt me, you hurt me

Bring me down
Bring me down
When i try
You bring me

Many things have changed
But your answer don't change at all
Your excuses lame
Your story's were tall
I count the wasted years
And the cracks in the wall
Like nothing before felt the world was cruel
Had a feeling inside
Hurt me, you hurt me

Bring me down
Bring me down
When i try
You bring me

The times we cried
Those wasted years we lied
The times that we tried
You bring me down, you bring me down
Things change

Bring me down
Bring me down
When i try
You bring me

Jimmy jack, flash smash
Broken bottle, broken crash
Shooting rotten, rotten hash
Drinking bottles, what an arse up
What a slip up, shouting flipping
Screamers, laughers, trippers tripping
Now my grasp on reality's slipping
My straight-jacket ain't fitting

Glass smash jack is having a bash

See me now i have the mark
See me glowing in the dark
Play at night in the park
Balls and razors, what a lark
Knives and guns, guns are fun
I'm on the run from falling over
Over-dosed on four-leaf clover
A drink with byte i'll call it rover

Glass smash jack wants you
Everybody wants you
Wants your co-operation

Jack smash has a mission
He is in a delicate position
For the performance of his ploy
To do and then destroy
Preferably with a hat
It's quite a trip to hell and back
And rather warm when you're in to bat
And it's really isn't cricket

Glass smash jack wants you... etc

Mischiefs done no turning back
You're on your own now jimmy jack
And all those memories that you bring
From childhood to the power thing
Don't they haunt you
Don't cry
And don't you hate
And don't you wish
It wasn't too late

The children say run away
On the streets no one plays
Going down to the bargain basement
See what you find if you have the patience
Down so low your nerves were raw
You find them all beneath the floor
Pass it by friends to meet
You find them all beneath the street

Too many secrets
Reasons to defeat us
Precious little reasons
To while away the days

Behind you, beneath you
Above you, all around you
It could have been you

Too many secrets
Reasons to defeat us
Precious little reasons
To while away the years

Behind you, beneath you
Above you, all around you, all around you

It's so complicated
Your problems were related
Crawling long and lowly
It's dawning on us slowly

Too many secrets
Reasons to defeat us
Precious little reasons
To while away the days

Behind you, beneath you
Above you, all around you, all around you

What happened in there did you lose your mind?
When they knocked at the door did you make it in time?
Did you talk to god to see a sign?
Was the devil next door was your soul on the line
Did it just appear did you ever chase it
Did you really fall down can you ever face it
Do you always remember what you do
'cause it could have been you
It could have been you

I met you on a rollercoaster
Drive by shooting
In a big black roadster
- it felt so good
We danced in clubs
In ballroom gowns
Lined them up and all fell down
- it felt so good
We played our cards for the promised land
Walked on air and you took my hand
- it felt so good
It met you where our worlds collide
No-one could touch us side by side
- it felt so good

Now you see it, now you don't
Maybe get it, maybe you're wrong, maybe you're right
Now you see it, now you don't
How could you lose it

When you shine so bright, when you feel so right?

I loved you with a 45
A bullet jig at a roadside jive
- it felt so good
We chased a demon through the night
And laced our dreams with neon lights
- it felt so good
We lost our heads in a winning streak
Touched the sun and felt the heat
- it felt so good
I loved you a 45, a cadillac
And we got away alive
- it felt so good

Good won't last

Now you see it, now you don't... etc
When you shine so bright, when you feel so right?

What did you feel in your drunken haze
Did you feel better, than your better days
- when you shine so bright?
How did you feel on your higher plain?
How did you feel and would you do it again
- when you shine so right?

I met you on a rollercoaster
Drive by shooting
In a big black roadster
- it felt so good
We danced in clubs
In ballroom gowns
Lined them up and all fell down
- it felt so good
We played our cards for the promised land
Walked on air and you took my hand
- it felt so good
I lost you to a dollar deal
I didn't know if it was real
- it felt so good
Good won't last

Now you see it, now you don't... etc
When you shine so bright, when you feel so right?

Bubble burst, wave break
You got us wrong, make no mistake
Lost treasures, classic brief
They let us out it's no relief
Come on chief let me off
The last mohicans camped it up
And all that's left said in jest
Displayed upon a perfect chest

Where have you been sunny jim?
Where have you been all this time?
Drinking the last of the summer wine
On the run in the sun
High on the rocks
West of the cox

Wake up quick, no one sleeps
When we're awake we go for weeks
Our eyes are red but we feel great
We went to sea aboard a beer crate
And have you heard the classic tune
And read the book and seen the film
And is this boy our local loon
Have you heard him play the egg and spoon

[chorus]

Where have you been?

Up and down yo yo saito
Always ready so polite-o
We had it all in every port
All so susses a last resort
We'll drift along for a while
'cause we've got bite and country style
And we've got this big decision to make
A country mile or a u.s. pancake

[chorus]

Drinking there's no tomorrow
Drowning sins and sorrows
I've passed this way before
And just drank some more

I woke up with a red face
And war paint
And a loss of grace
I won't be back in second place
By taking something with bad taste

I catch it every time

I don't know why but i like this feeling
Part of something higher
And i'm not just bleeding you dry

Daylight is a mystery
When quoting lines from history
Of famous drunks that used to be
But now all this is lost to me

Their contributions used to grate
As i explained away their fate
With deadlines i'll never make
And the fact i'm doing nothing

I catch it every time

I don't know why but i like this feeling
Part of something higher and i'm not just bleeding
Don't know why, why, why but i like this feeling
Part of something higher and i'm not just
Bleeding you dry

Faster, faster my chemical master
My problem solver, my powered saint
Give me the power to go forever
And make my blood just red wet hate

I don't know why but i like this feeling
Part of something higher and i'm not just bleeding
Don't know why, why, why but i like this feeling
Part of something higher and i'm not just
Bleeding you dry
