unknown

What she said
She said to me
Take me high on a mountain side
She was dressed up in leopard skin
And her soul would never be denied

I met her down the disco in a beat up car
She was burning down the road
She looked just like a star with a Jaguar
She needs to lighten her load

And when you might
Think you're gonna cry
It will be all right
Step out tonight

You might
Think you're gonna cry
It will be all right
Step out tonight

What I said I said to her
I'm alive when you walk that way
Can you hear what I can hear?
It's the sound of a brand new day

She met me down a disco in a beat up car
I was burning down the road
I can be a star in a Jaguar
I need to lighten my load

Because you might think you're gonna cry
It will be all right
Step out tonight

You might
Think you're gonna cry
It will be all right
Step out tonight

My whole life still sinking in the water
I need a ship not your sweet lip tonight

You might
Think you're gonna cry
It will be all right
Step out tonight

You might
Think you're gonna cry
It will be all right
Step out tonight

If you're wondering why i've not been speaking my mind sir
It took so long since i could call this my home

You can colour my life
Until it fits with your own
You can colour my life
Until it fits with your own

I've been wondering why you've not been speaking your mind sir
I've coloured my life and i'll make no bones
My shapes of confusion fit holes of frustration

I wanna get high, but I never could take the pain
'Cos it would blow away my soul like a hurricane
Like a one man band clapping in the pouring rain
If I know where I'm going, I don't know from where I came

Where we gonna be in summertime?
And are we gonna see the heavens shine
Like diamonds in the sky?

As soon as they come
The feelings they go
All alone, on a one way road

As soon as they come
The feelings they go
All alone, on a one way road

I wanna get high, but I really can't take the pain
'Cos it will blow away my soul like a hurricane
I'm like a one man band clapping in the pouring rain
If I know where I'm going, I don't know from where I came

Where we gonna be in summertime?
And are we gonna see the heavens shine
Like diamonds in the sky?

As soon as they come
The feelings they go
All alone, on a one way road

As soon as they come
The feelings they go
All alone, on a one way road

I better let you know, it's time for you to go
You're gonna break my heart
I better let you know, it's time for you to go
You're gonna break my heart

I'm getting tired
I'm sick of all my records
And the clothes i bought today
Am i cracking up
Or just getting older?

Staying in
I can't be bothered
Making conversation
With the friends that i don't know
Am i cracking up
Or just getting older?

And i bet that this is how life
Turns out when you're finally grown
And you know if this my life
Sit around all day on my own

I'm halfway up to the bottom
Of another bottle
Of my next best favourite friend
Am i cracking up
Or just getting older?

You're not cracking up
You're just getting older
We're not cracking up
We're just getting older

Everywhere i hear the sound of marching feet, boy
Cause summer's here and the time is right for fighting in the street, boy
But what can a poor boy do
'cept to sing for a rock 'n' roll band
Cause in sleepy london town
There's just no place for a street fighting man
No!

Hey! think the time is right for a palace revolution
But where i live the game to play is compromise solution
Well, what can a poor boy do
'cept to sing for a rock 'n' roll band
Cause in sleepy london town
There's just no place for a street fighting man
No!
No!
No!

Guitar!

Hey! said my name is called disturbance
I'll shout and scream, i'll kill the king, i'll rail at all his servants
Well, what can a poor boy do

Here lives a pocket full of lives with no future
Take it for what it is, it's only drunken lies
You should open up your mind, look to the future
You could be waiting for the ship that sails you home
I'm going home

What would you give me for the songs that i've been singing
How could you ever say that you've got more than me?
Mick say's that he can never get no satifaction
These day's i think i know exactly what he means
What does he mean?

You're bringing back those memories
Of the thing that we did
You're hangin round
And climbing trees
Pretending to fly
D'Yer wanna be a spaceman
And live in the sky

And how many kids
And you forgot about
The things that we did
The town where we're living
Has made you a man
And all of your dreams
Are washed in the sand

Well it's alright
It's alright
Who are you and me to say
What's wrong and what's right
Do you still feel like me
We sit down here
And we shall see
We can talk
And find common ground
And we can just forget
About feeling down
We can just forget
About life in this town.

It's funny how your dreams
Change as you're growing old
You don't wanna be no spaceman
You just want gold
Dream stealers
Are lying in wait

Help, i need somebody,
Help, not just anybody,
Help, you know i need someone, help.

When i was younger, so much younger than today,
I never needed anybody's help in any way.
But now these days are gone, i'm not so self assured,
Now i find i've changed my mind and opened up the doors.

Help me if you can, i'm feeling down
And i do appreciate you being round.
Help me, get my feet back on the ground,
Won't you please, please help me.

And now my life has changed in oh so many ways,
My independence seems to vanish in the haze.
But every now and then i feel so insecure,
I know that i just need you like i've never done before.

Help me if you can, i'm feeling down
And i do appreciate you being round.
Help me, get my feet back on the ground,
Won't you please, please help me.

I'm a chipper son of a bitch
I'm a chipper son of a bitch
I'm a chipper son of a bitch

I'm a chipper son of a bitch
And i never get an itch
When i'm a chipper son of a bitch
I'm a chipper son of a bitch

I heard a whisper on my radio
But I paid no mind
I just sat back and I let it go
To catch the rain from a lonely waterfall
But I might beware
'Cos they could drown me like a doll

They got me running in and out of time
I feel like a Bona Fide
Keeper of the right and wrong
And I've known all along, but let me just make it clear

Everybody's gone for quick, sure fire solution
But faith in any god is gonna bury us all
No-one's gonna fight in a ten-bob revolution
Have faith in what you've got and it will carry us all
Carry us all

I slip my skin as the prophets reappear
But I pay no mind
I'm just trying to persevere
With the sins I have to shake from me within
Though I might beware
'Cos they're just trying to wear me thin

They got me running in and out of time
I feel like a Bona Fide
Keeper of the right and wrong
And I've known all along, but let me just make it clear

Everybody's gone for quick, sure fire solution
But faith in any god is gonna bury us all
No-one's gonna fight in a ten-bob revolution
Have faith in what you've got and it will carry us all
Carry us all

Everybody's gone for quick, sure fire solution
But faith in any god is gonna bury us all
No-one's gonna fight in a ten-bob revolution

Just when it falls apart
And when it's time to start
Will you sit down here for another day
And when it's time to be
All the things that we
Are wishing away for another day

Cos in my soul we know where we're goin
We're goin where the grass is green, the air is clean and the good times are growin'
So take me away
Just for today
Cos I'm sat here on my own
I'd like to be
Under the sea
Where they'd probaly need a phone

And just when it falls apart
And just when it's time to start
Will you sit down here for another day

Cos in my soul we know where we're goin
We're goin where the grass is green, the air is clean and the good times are growin'
So take me away
Just for today
Cos I'm sat here on my own
I'd like to be
Under the sea
Where they'd probaly need a phone
I could be you
If I wanted to
But I've never got the time
You could be me
And pretty soon you will be
But you're gonna need a line

Need a line
Need a line
Need a line

if you gave me a fresh carnation
I would only crush its tender petals
With me you'll have no escape
And at the same time there'll be nowhere to settle
I trample down all life in my wake
I eat it up and take the cake
I just avert my eyes to the pain
Of someone's loss helping my gain

If you gave me a dream for my pocket
You'd be plugging in the wrong socket
With me there's no room for the future
With me there's no room with a view at all

I am out of season all year around
Hear machinery roar to my empty sound
Touch my heart and feel winter
Hold my hand and be doomed forever

If you gave me a fresh carnation
I would only crush its tender petals
With me you'll have no escape
And at the same time there'll be nowhere to settle
And if you're wondering by now who i am
Look no further than the mirror
Cause i am the greed and fear
And every ounce of hate in you

A feeling sleeping deep inside
You hide it so I'll never find
Today I think I'll waste my time
You never notice, you are blind

The dream I have can never be
To photograph what the eye can't see
I fight to live another day
I live to find out, come what may

Faith in the lord is something I can never have
Faith in my sister is gonna set me free
Faith in the lord is something I will never have
Cause the lord I know don't got not faith in me

Your my lover, Your my lover
Your my lover, Your my lover

She gives me light when the sun goes down
She gives me strength when I don't drown
She gives me hope and destiny
She gives me air that I can breathe

Faith in the lord is something I can never have
Faith in my sister is gonna set me free
Faith in the lord is something I will never have
Cause the lord I know don't got not faith in me

Your my lover, I'm your brother
Your my lover, I'm your brother

Faith in the lord is something I can never have
Faith in my sister is gonna set me free
Faith in the lord is something I will never have
Cause the lord I know don't got not faith in me

Your my lover, I'm your brother
Your my lover, I'm your brother
Your my lover, I'm your brother
Your my lover, I'm your brother

I hear my heart beatin faster
I feel it in my bones
I want it now 'cos I have ta
But why, no-one knows
I'm like the angel on the a train
I'm like the angel of the A train
My eyes are diamond white
From the cradle till your insane
For life you have to fight
But no-one knows why there's a spirit in the sky, there's escape for no-one
He will understand, while I take him by the hand, that life's time tunnel is long
Well it will be alright
If you stay tonight
It's where we both belong
It's gonna be full on
It's gonna be full on
It's gonna be full on
It's gonna be full on
It's gonna be full on

I hear my heart beatin faster

You know i need a little break
To get away for a holiday
So i can see the sun
Cos in the sun they say it's fun
If you can get some
Well i could take a train or a boat or an aeroplane
Or i could steal a car
Cos in a car you can go far
Just depends on what kind of car you are

La, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la
What kind of car you are
La, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la

I met a funny looking girl
On a crowded beach in spain
Her name was avaline
She said she came to spain to have a good time
But she was with her mum
Who had a face like a nun in pain
She said her name was dot
She didn't half talk a lot
I couldn't tell if she was mad or not

La, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la
La, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la

Don't you know - i should have stayed in england
On my polluted beach - with all my special friends
Don't you know - i should have stayed in england
With my big house and my big car
And all my friend are there at the bar

La, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la
La, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la

You know i need a little break

Your the devil in me, i brought in from the cold
You said your body was young but your mind was very old
Your comin' on strong and i like the way

I'm tired of my life but my heads alright
I got the fever off a man I know
I can feel it comin' in the air tonight
And I know, I know, I know

Swear I heard a song on the radio
My heart is laughing back at me
I can see it comin' but I just don't know
If it's gon' , it's gon, it's gonna let me be

As I saw, on the breeze
I can see the sons of those who came before me
And it's got me on my knees
What you say, anyway
Will not last, it'll pass, it'll flash right there before me
And it's got me on my knees

Cos I got the fever

Just like a dolphin, like dolphins can swim
And nothing, is gonna keep us together
And we can beat them, for ever and ever
Cos we can be Heroes, just for one day

I, I will be king
And you, you're gonna be my queen
Yeah but nothing, is gonna drive us away
Cos we can be Heroes, just for one day
And we're gonna be ourselves, just for one day

I, I can remember (I remember)
When I was standing, by the wall (by the wall)
And then the guns, they shot over our heads (over our heads)
And then we kissed, as though nothing could fall (nothing could fall)
Well then the shame, yeah, the shame was on their side
But we're gonna beat them, for ever and ever
Then we could be Heroes, just for one day

We can be Heroes
We can be Heroes
We can be Heroes
Just for one day
We can be Heroes

We're nothing, and nothing will help us
Maybe we're lying, then you better not stay
But we could be safer, just for one day

Oh-oh-oh-ohh, oh-oh-oh-ohh, just for one day

Though nothing, will keep us together
We could steal time, just for one day
We can be Heroes, for ever and ever
What d'you say?

well you can say what you want
But you won't get a thing from me
And if you don't understand
That's it's not in your hands you need

Let there be love
Let there be love
Let there be love
Let there be love

But you can say what you feel
And it might never steal from me
And then you must understand
That it's all in your hands what you need

Let there be love

And i never knew
But all the thing's that you've done
Are coming right back to you
But everybody know's that it's no crime

But does it make you feel ashamed
You never said what you done
And there's no need to blame
But everybody knows, yeah everybody knows
Everybody knows that it's no crime, it's no crime

So you can say what you want
But you'll not get a thought from me
But if you say what you mean
Then you might get a thing from me

Let there be love
Let there be love
Let there be love
Let there be love

If i ever knew
That all the thing's i've thought
Are coming right back to you
But everybody thinks that it's a crime

It never makes you feel ashamed
You sit around and you sold
And you're passing the blame
But everybody knows
Yeah everybody knows
Everybody knows that it's a crime
It's a crime (3x)

To be someone must be a wonderful thing
A famous footballer a rock singer
Or a big film star, yes i think that i would like
I would like that
To be rich and have a lot of fans
And lots of girls to prove that i'm a man
To be number one - and loved by everyone

Getting drugged up with my trendy friends
They really dig me, man, and i dig them
And the money that i spend, it is like my fame, and it's quickly gone

No more swimming in my guitar shaped pool
No more reporters at my beck and call
No more cocaine, now it's only ground chalk
And i can't afford a taxi so i have to walk

Didn't i have a nice time
Wasn't it sucha nice time
Didn't i have a nice time

I realize i should have stuck to my guns
You stood me out just like a bastard son
And i lost myself, but i know that it was wrong
And it cost me a lot

No more drinking cause now the club shuts down
And i'm out here on my arse with the rest of you clowns
I get really scared without my bodyguard
And i'm sitting all alone in my expensive yard

Didn't i have a nice time
Wasn't it such a nice time
Didn't i have a nice time
Wasn't it such a nice time
I remember it was a nice time
To be someone must be a wonderful thing

Sometimes i listen to what people try to say
And then when i tune in i think, no that's not the way
Sometimes i listen to what people have to say
And then when i tune in i think, no that's not the way

It must be the music
It sounds so confusing
It must be the music
That's opening my eyes
It must be the music
It sounds so confusing
It must be the music
Making me realise

Sometimes i listen to what people try to say
And then when i tune in i think, no that's not the way
Sometimes i listen to what people have to say
And then when i tune in i seem so far away

It must be the music
It sounds so confusing
It must be the music
That's opening my eyes
It must be the music
It sounds so confusing
It must be the music
Making me realise

Trying to press
What you might be feeling
Why suppress
What you might be needing

You missed the moon on monday morning
You were lying in your sin
You missed the moon on monday morning
Because you don't mean anything to anyone, anymore

Why confess
Well you wouldn't need to
Because on your desk
There's more to be seen to

By the time just keep on ticking
Until i get my sweet release
By the time just keep on winding
Until this cold-stop has ceased
And everyone can see the sun

I've send underwater, slept with your daughter
She told me what your rule book read
I've been to the slaughter, slept with your daughter
So won't you let me have my head
And then i can see the sun

You missed the moon on monday morning
You were lying in your sin
You missed the moon on monday morning
Because you don't mean anything to anyone, anymore

By the time just keep on ticking
Until i get my sweet release
And down this road i'll keep on winding
Until this cold-stop has ceased
And everyone can see the sun
Everyone can see the sun
Everyone can see the sun
Everyone can see the sun

I've send underwater, slept with your daughter
She told me what your rule book read
I've been to the slaughter, slept with your daughter
So won't you let me have my head
And then i can see the sun

It's better people love one another
'Cause livin' your life can be tough
It's better people speak to each other
Your shame is not enough

If everybody came alive
And stayed alive
And lived their lives instead, yeah
So come outside
And feel the light
It's cold inside
But it's lonely in your bed
In your bed

And though we might be
But what you heard before
Was only sleepin' in your brain
But if you came with me
The days'd never end
Would never be the same
They'd never be the same
They'd never be the same
Never be the same
It's better people love one another
'Cause livin' your life can be tough
It's better people speak to each other
Your shame is not enough

If everybody came alive
And stayed alive
And lived their lives instead, yeah
So come outside
And feel the light
It's cold inside
But it's lonely in your bed
In your bed

And though we might be
But what you heard before
Is sleeping in your brain
But if you came with me
The days'd never end
Would never be the same
They'd never be the same
They'd just go by a different name
They'd never be the same
