Ever Present Past I've got too much on my plate, don't have no time to be a decent lover. I hope it isn't too late, searching for the time that has gone so fast, the time that I thought would last, my ever present past. I've got too much on my mind, I think of everything to be discovered. I hope there's something to find, searching for the time that has gone so fast, the time that I thought would last, my ever present past. The things I think I did, I d - I, d - I - did The things I think I did when I was a kid. I couldn't understand a word that they were saying, but still I hung around and took it all in. I wouldn't join in with the games that they were playing, It went by, it went by in a flash. It flew by, it flew by in a flash. There's far too much on my plate don't have no time to be a decent lover. I hope it isn't too late, searching for the time that has gone so fast, the time that I thought would last, my ever present past. The things I think I did, I d - I, d - I - did The things I think I did when I was a kid. The things I think I did, I d - I, d - I - did The things I think I did when I was a kid, when I was a kid. See Your Sunshine She makes me feel glad, I want her so bad, my heart is beating madly for her, If you ask me why, I'm not going to lie, I'll have to say that I adore her. Look what you do to me, baby, you're making me feel so fine. Step out in front of me baby, they want you in the front line, they want to see your sunshine. She picks up daisies from a field, she loves to weave them in her hair, and though she knows it isn't real, she still hears music in the air, it's coming from inside her heart, I hope it lasts forever. The sun is shining in her sky, she wants to dance around the world, and though I'd love to be the guy that gets to walk off with the girl, I'll go along with all she needs and it will be my pleasure. Look what you do to me, baby, you're making me feel so fine. Step out in front of me baby, they want you in the front line, they want to see your sunshine. She makes me feel glad, I want her so bad, my heart is beating madly for her, If you ask me why, I'm not going to lie, I'll have to say that I adore her. Look what you do to me, baby, you're making me feel so fine, I want to see your sunshine. Only Mama Knows Well I was found in the transit lounge of a dirty airport town. What was I doing on the road to ruin? Well, my mama laid me down, my mama laid me down. Round my hand was a plastic band with a picture of my face. I was crying, left to die in this God forsaken place, this God forsaken place. Only mama knows why she laid me down in this God forsaken town. Where she was running to, what she ran from, though I always wondered, I never knew. Only mama knows, only mama knows. I'm passing through, I'm on my way, I'm on the road, no ETA. I'm passing through, no fixed abode and that is why I need to try to hold on, I've gotta hold on, gotta hold on. Was it planned as a one night stand or did she leave in disgrace? Will I never, will I ever see my father's face, see my father's face? Only mama knows why she laid me down in this God forsaken town Where she was running to, what she ran from, though I always wondered, I never knew. Only mama knows, only mama knows. Where she was running to, what she ran from, though I always wondered, I never knew. Only mama knows, only mama knows. I've gotta hold on, I've gotta hold on, you've gotta hold on. You Tell Me When was that summer when the skies were blue, the bright red cardinal flew down from his tree? You tell me. When was that summer when it never rained, the air was buzzing with the sweet old honey bee? Let's see, you tell me. Were we there, was it real, is it truly how I feel? Maybe, you tell me. Were we there is it true, was I really there with you? Let's see, you tell me. When was that summer of a dozen words, the butterflies and humming birds flew free? Let's see, you tell me. Let's see, you tell me. Mr. Bellamy I'm not coming down, no matter what you do. I like it up here without you. All right, Mr. Bellamy, we'll have you down soon.

What we are is what we are and what we wear is vintage clothes, vintage clothes, vintage clothes. We jump up for joy, who cares if we look like a girl or boy? What we are is what we are and what we wear is vintage clothes, vintage clothes, vintage clothes. A little worn, a little torn, check the rack, what went out is coming back. Don't live in the past, don't hold onto something that's changing fast. What we are is what we are and what we wear is vintage clothes. A little worn, a little torn, check the rack, what went out is coming back. That Was Me That was me at the scout camp, in the school play, spade and bucket by the sea - that was me. That was me playing conkers at the bus stop on a blanket in the bluebells - that was me. The same me that stands here now and when I think that all this stuff can make a life, It's pretty hard to take it in - that was me. Well, that was me, Royal Iris on the river, Mersey Beatin' with the band - that was me. That was me sweating cobwebs under contract in the cellar on TV - that was me. The same me that stands here now, if fate decreed that all of this would make a lifetime who am I to disagree? That was me. That was me, a cappella, at the altar, in the middle of the picture - that was me. That was me at the party, sweating cobwebs in a cellar on TV - that was me. The same me that stands here now and when I think that all this stuff can make a life It's pretty hard to take it in, that was me, that was me. Feet In The Clouds Teacher said I had my head in the clouds. They directed, I suspected, disconnected, had it my way on the street. I had my feet on the ground, stood corrected, well protected, resurrected, had it my way. I've got my feet in the clouds, got my head on the ground, I know that I'm not a square as long as they're not around, but I find it very, very, very, very, very, very hard. Yes, I find it very, very, very, very, very, very, hard. Love is fab, it's like a stab in the heart. Hidden treasure, made to measure for my pleasure, had it my way. I've got my feet in the clouds, got my head on the ground, I know that I'm not a square as long as they're not around, and I find it very, very, very, very, very, very hard. And I find it very, very, very, very, very, very, hard. Oh, I find it very, very, very, very, very, very, hard. Yes, I find it very, very, very, very, very, very, hard. I've got my feet in the clouds, got my head on the ground. I'm not a square as long as they're not around, but I find it so hard, I find it so hard... House Of Wax Lightning hits the house of wax, poets spill out on the street to set alight the incomplete remainders of the future hidden in the yard, hidden in the yard. Thunder drowns the trumpets blast, poets scatter through the night but they can only dream of flight away from their confusion. Hidden in the yard, underneath the wall, buried deep below a thousand layers lay the answer to it all. Lightning hits the house of wax, women scream and run around to dance upon the battleground like wild, demented horses. Hidden in the yard, underneath the wall, buried deep below a thousand layers lay the answer to it all. Hidden in the yard, underneath the wall, buried deep below a thousand layers lay the answer to it all. End Of The End At the end of the end, it's the start of a journey to a much better place. And this wasn't bad so a much better place would have to be special, no need to be sad. On the day that I die, I'd like jokes to be told and stories of old to be rolled out like carpets that children have played on and laid on while listening to stories of old. At the end of the end, it's the start of a journey to a much better place. And a much better place would have to be special, no reason to cry. On the day that I die, I'd like bells to be rung and songs that were sung to be hung out like blankets that lovers have played on and laid on while listening to songs that were sung. At the end of the end, it's the start of a journey to a much better place. And a much better place would have to be special, no reason to cry. No need to be sad at the end of the end. Nod Your Head If you really love me baby better than staying in bed, if you really love me baby, nod your head. If you really love me baby till you fall down dead, she said, if you ever want to make it, nod your head. Nod it up, nod it down, side to side, round and round. If you ever want to prove it and you're hanging on a thread, if you ever want to shake it, nod your head. If you think the life you're leading is better than the life you led, if you like the life your living, well, nod your head. Well, nod it up, nod it down, side to side, round and round. If you really love me baby better than staying in bed, if you really love me baby, nod your head. |
