Its Christmas time
Theres no need to be afraid
At Christmas time
We let in light and we banish shade
And in our world of plenty
We can spread a smile of joy
Throw your arms around the world
At Christmas time
But say a prayer
Pray for the other ones
At Christmas time its hard
But when youre having fun
Theres a world outside your window
And its a world of dread and fear
Where the only water flowing
Is the bitter sting of tears
And the Christmas bells that ring there
Are the clanging chimes of doom
Well tonight thank God its them
Instead of you
And there wont be snow in Africa this Christmas time
The greatest gift theyll get this year is life
Where nothing ever grows, no rain or rivers flow
Do they know its Christmas time at all?
Heres to you
Raise a glass for everyone
Heres to them
Underneath that burning sun
Do they know its Christmas time at all?
Feed the world
Feed the world
Feed the world
Let them know its Christmas time again
Feed the world
Let them know its Christmas time again
Feed the world
Let them know its Christmas time again
Feed the world
Let them know its Christmas time again
Feed the world
Let them know its Christmas time again
Feed the world
Let them know its Christmas time again
Feed the world
Let them know its Christmas time again |
Came in from a rainy Thursday
On the avenue
Thought I heard you talking softly
I turned on the lights, the TV
And the radio
Still I cant escape the ghost of you
What has happened to it all?
Crazy, somed say
Where is the life that I recognize?
Gone away
But I wont cry for yesterday
Theres an ordinary world
Somehow I have to find
And as I try to make my way
To the ordinary world
I will learn to survive
Passion or coincidence
Once prompted you to say
Pride will tear us both apart
Well now prides gone out the window
Cross the rooftops
Run away
Left me in the vacuum of my heart
What is happening to me?
Crazy, somed say
Where is my friend when I need you most?
Gone away
But I wont cry for yesterday
Theres an ordinary world
Somehow I have to find
And as I try to make my way
To the ordinary world
I will learn to survive
Papers in the roadside
Tell of suffering and greed
Fear today, forgot tomorrow
Ooh, here beside the news
Of holy war and holy need
Ours is just a little sorrowed talk
And I dont cry for yesterday
Theres an ordinary world
Somehow I have to find
And as I try to make my way
To the ordinary world
I will learn to survive
Every world
Is my world
Any world
Is my world
Any world
Is my world
Every world
Is my world |
Mine, immaculate dream
Made breath and skin, Ive been waiting for you
Signed, with a home tattoo
Happy birthday to you was created for you
Oh, itll take a little time
Might take a little crime
To come undone now
Well try to stay blind
To the hope and fear outside
Hey child, stay wilder than the wind
And blow me into crime
Who do you need, who do you love
When you come undone?
Who do you need, who do you love
When you come undone?
Words, playing me deja vu
Like a radio tune, I swear Ive heard before
Chills, is it something real
Or the magic Im feeding off your fingers?
Lost, in a snow filled sky
Well make it alright
To come undone now
Well try to stay blind
To the hope and fear outside
Hey child, stay wilder than the wind
And blow me into crime
Who do you need, who do you love
When you come undone?
Who do you need, who do you love
When you come undone?
Who do you need, who do you love
When you come undone?
Who do you need, who do you love?
Who do you love
When you come undone? |
Ha-ha!
Darken the city, night is a wire
Steam in the subway, earth is afire
Do do do do do do do dodo dododo dodo
Woman you want me, give me a sign
And catch my breathing even closer behind
Do do do do do do do dodo dododo dodo
In touch with the ground
Im on the hunt, Im after you
Smell like I sound, Im lost in a crowd
And Im hungry like the wolf
Straddle the line, in discord and rhyme
Im on the hunt, Im after you
Mouth is alive, with juices like wine
And Im hungry like the wolf
Stalked in the forest, too close to hide
Ill be upon you by the moonlight side
Do do do do do do do dodo dododo dodo
High blood drumming on your skin, its so tight
You feel my heat, Im just a moment behind
Do do do do do do do dodo dododo dodo
In touch with the ground
Im on the hunt, Im after you
Scent and a sound, Im lost and Im found
And Im hungry like the wolf
Strut on a line, its discord and rhyme
I howl and I whine Im after you
Mouth is alive, all running inside
And Im hungry like the wolf
Hungry like the wolf
Hungry like the wolf
Hungry like the wolf
Burning the ground, I break from the crowd
Im on the hunt, Im after you
I smell like I sound, Im lost and Im found
And Im hungry like the wolf
Strut on a line, its discord and rhyme
Im on the hunt Im after you
Mouth is alive, with juices like wine
And Im hungry like the wolf
Burning the ground, I break from the crowd
Im on the hunt, Im after you
Scent and a sound, Im lost and Im found
And Im hungry like the wolf
Strut on a line, its discord and rhyme
I howl and I whine Im after you
Mouth is alive, all running inside |
Moving on the floor now babe youre a bird of paradise
Cherry ice cream smile I suppose its very nice
With a step to your left and a flick to the right
You catch that mirror way out west
You know youre something special
And you look like youre the best
Her name is Rio and she dances on the sand
Just like that river twisting through a dusty land
And when she shines she really shows you all she can
Oh Rio, Rio dance across the Rio Grande
Ive seen you on the beach and Ive seen you on TV
Two of a billion stars it means so much to me
Like a birthday or a pretty view
But then Im sure that you know its just for you
Her name is Rio and she dances on the sand
Just like that river twisting through a dusty land
And when she shines she really shows you all she can
Oh Rio, Rio dance across the Rio Grande
Hey now woo look at that
Did he nearly run you down?
At the end of the drive the lawmen arrive
You make me feel alive, alive, alive
Ill take my chance cause luck is on my side or something
I know what youre thinking
I tell you something, I know what youre thinking
Her name is Rio and she dances on the sand
Just like that river twists across a dusty land
And when she shines she really shows you all she can
Oh Rio, Rio dance across the Rio Grande
Her name is Rio, she dont need to understand
And I might find her if Im looking like I can
Oh Rio, Rio hear them shout across the land
From mountains in the North down to the Rio Grande |
You saw me standing by the wall
Corner of a main street
And the lights are flashing on your window sill
All alone aint much fun
So youre looking for the thrill
And you know just what it takes
And where to go
Dont say a prayer for me now
Save it til the morning after
No, dont say a prayer for me now
Save it til the morning after
Feel the breeze deep on the inside
Look you down into your well
If you can, youll see the world in all his fire
Take a chance like all dreamers
You cant find another way
You dont have to dream it all
Just live a day
Dont say a prayer for me now
Save it til the morning after
No, dont say a prayer for me now
Save it til the morning after
Save it til the morning after
Save it til the morning after
Pretty looking road
I try to hold the rising floods that fill my skin
Dont ask me why, Ill keep my promise
Melt the ice
And you wanted to dance
So I asked you to dance
But fear is in your soul
Some people call it a one-night stand
But we can call it paradise
Dont say a prayer for me now
Save it til the morning after
No, dont say a prayer for me now
Save it til the morning after
Save it til the morning after
Save it til the morning after
Save it til the morning after
Save it til the morning after
Do-do-do-do-do
Do-do-do, do-do-do, do-do
Save a prayer til the morning after
Save a prayer til the morning after
Save a prayer til the morning after
Save a prayer til the morning after... |
Sound of Camera shutters flickering
See them walking hand in hand across the bridge at midnight
Heads turning as the lights flashing out its so bright
Then walk right out to the four-line track
Theres a camera rolling on her back, on her back
And I sense the rhythm humming in a frenzy all the way down her spine
Girls on film
Girls on film
Girls on film
Girls on film
Lipstick cherry all over the lens as shes falling
In miles of sharp blue water coming in where she lies
The diving mans coming up for air
Cause the crowd all love pulling dolly by the hair, by the hair
And she wonders how she ever got here as she goes under again
Girls on film
Girls on film
Girls on film
Girls on film
Wider baby smiling you just made a million
Fuses pumping live heat twisting out on a wire
Take one last glimpse into the night
Im touching close Im holding bright, holding tight
Give me shudders in a whisper take me up till Im shooting a star
Girls on film

Youve gone too far this time
But Im dancing on the Valentine
I tell you somebodys fooling around
With my chances on the danger line
Ill cross that bridge when I find it
Another day to make my stand, oh woah
High time is no time for deciding
If I should find a helping hand, oh woah
Oh, why dont you use it?
Try not to bruise it
Buy time, dont lose it
Oh, why dont you use it?
Try not to bruise it
Buy time, dont lose it
The reflex is a lonely child, whos waiting by the park
The reflex is in charge of finding treasure in the dark
And watching over lucky clover, isnt that bizarre?
And every little thing the reflex does
Leaves you answered with a question mark
Im on a ride, and I want to get off
But they wont slow down the roundabout
I sold the Renoir and TV set
Dont wanna be around when this gets out
So, why dont you use it?
Try not to bruise it
Buy time, dont lose it
Oh, why dont you use it?
Try not to bruise it
Buy time, dont lose it
The reflex is a lonely child, hes waiting in the park
The reflex is in charge of finding treasure in the dark
And watching over lucky clover, isnt that bizarre?
And every little thing the reflex does
Leaves an answer with a question mark
So, why dont you use it?
Try not to bruise it
Buy time, dont lose it
Oh, why dont you use it?
Try not to bruise it
Buy time, dont lose it
The reflex is a lonely child whos waiting by the park
The reflex is in charge of finding treasure in the dark
And watching over lucky clover, isnt that bizarre?
And every little thing the reflex does
Leaves me answered with a question mark
Oh, the reflex, what a game, hes hiding all the cards
The reflex is in charge of finding treasure in the dark
And watching over lucky clover, isnt that bizarre?
And every little thing the reflex does
Leaves you answered with a question mark |
No-no-Notorious
Notorious
No-no-Notorious
I cant read about it
Burns the skin from your eyes
Ill do fine without it
Heres one you dont compromise
Lies come hard in disguise
They need to fight it out
Not wild about it
Lay your seedy judgements
Who says theyre part of our lives?
You own the money
You control the witness
Ill leave you lonely
Dont monkey with my business
You pay the prophets to justify your reasons
I heard your promise, but I dont believe it
Thats why Ive done it again
No-No-Notorious
Girls will keep the secrets
So long as boys make a noise
Fools run rings to break up
Something theyll never destroy
Grand Notorious slam
And who really gives a damn for a flaky bandit?
Dont ask me to bleed about it
I need this blood to survive
You own the money
You control the witness
Ill leave you lonely
Dont monkey with my business
You pay the prophets to justify your reasons
I heard your promise, but I dont believe it
Thats why Ive done it again
Notorious

Meeting you with a view to a kill
Face to face in secret places, feel the chill
Nightfall covers me, but you know the plans Im making
Still overseas, could it be the whole Earth opening wide
A sacred why, a mystery gaping inside
A week is why, until we...
Dance into the fire
That fatal kiss is all we need
Dance into the fire
To fatal sounds of broken dreams
Dance into the fire
That fatal kiss is all we need
Dance into the fire
The choice for you is the view to a kill
Between the shades assassination standing still
Earths crystal tears, the fall of snowflakes on your body
First time in years to drench your skin in lovers rosy stain
A chance to find the phoenix for the flame
A chance to die, but can we...
Dance into the fire
That fatal kiss is all we need
Dance into the fire
To fatal sounds of broken dreams
Dance into the fire
That fatal kiss is all we need
Dance into the fire
When all we see is the view to a kill |
Out on the tar plains, the glides are moving
All looking for a new place to drive
You sit beside me, so newly charming
Sweating dew drops glisten, freshing your side
And the sun drips down bedding heavy behind
The front of your dress all shadowy lined
And the droning engine throbs in time
With your beating heart
Way down the lane away, living for another day
The aphids swarm up in the drifting haze
Swim seagull in the sky towards that hollow western isle
My envied lady holds you fast in her gaze
And the sun drips down bedding heavy behind
The front of your dress all shadowy lined
And the droning engine throbs in time
With your beating heart
And the sun drips down bedding heavy behind
The front of your dress all shadowy lined
And the droning engine throbs in time
With your beating heart
Sing, Blue Silver
And watching lovers part, I feel you smiling
What glass splinters lie so deep in your mind
To tear out from your eyes with a word to stiffen brooding lies
But Ill only watch you leave me further behind
And the sun drips down bedding heavy behind
The front of your dress all shadowy lined
And the droning engine throbs in time
With your beating heart
And the sun drips down bedding heavy behind
The front of your dress all shadowy lined
And the droning engine throbs in time
With your beating heart
Sing, Blue Silver
Sing, sing Blue Silver
Known as Albert Schweitzer
Theres more to this kind of camouflage, more than just colour and shape
Whos crawling now in the tall grass near my tent?
Listen... |
Nightshades on a warning
Give me strength, give me a light
Give me anything even sympathy
Theres a chance you could be right
If I listen close I can hear them, singers oh
Voices in your body coming through on the radio
The union of the snake is on the climb
Moving up its gonna race its gonna break
Through the borderline
The union of the snake is on the climb
Moving up its gonna race its gonna break
Through the borderline
If I listen close I can hear them, singers oh
Voices in your body coming through on the radio
The union of the snake is on the climb
Moving up its gonna race its gonna break
Through the borderline
The union of the snake is on the climb
Moving up its gonna race, its gonna break
Through the borderline
The union of the snake is on the climb
Moving up its gonna race its gonna break
Through the borderline
The union of the snake is on the climb
Moving up its gonna race, its gonna break
To the borderline |
Wild boys, wild boys, wild boys
Wild boys
Wild! Boys!
The wild boys are calling
On their way back from the fire
In august moons surrender to
A dust cloud on the rise
Wild boys fallen far from glory
Reckless and so hungered
On the razors edge you trail
Because theres murder by the roadside
In a sore afraid new world
They tried to break us
Looks like theyll try again
Wild boys never lose it
Wild boys never chose this way
Wild boys never close your eyes
Wild boys always shine
You got sirens for a welcome
Theres bloodstain for your pain
And your telephone been ringing while
Youre dancing in the rain
Wild boys wonder where is glory
Where is all you angels
Now the figureheads have fell
And lovers war with arrows over
Secrets they could tell
Pre-Chorus
They tried to tame you
Looks like theyll try again
Wild boys never lose it
Wild boys never chose this way
Wild boys never close your eyes
Wild boys always shine
Wild boys, wild boys, wild boys
Wild boys, wild boys, wild boys
Wild boys never lose it
Wild boys never chose this way
Wild boys never close your eyes
Wild boys always
Wild boys never lose it
Wild boys never chose this way
Wild boys never close your eyes
Wild boys always
Wild boys never lose it
Wild boys never chose this way
Wild boys never close your eyes
Wild boys always, wild boys |
Shake up the picture the lizard mixture
With your dance on the eventide
You got me coming up with answers
All of which I deny
I said it again
Could I please rephrase it
Maybe I can catch a ride
I couldnt really put it much plainer
But Ill wait till you decide
Send me your warning siren
As if I could ever hide
Last time La Luna
I light my torch and wave it for the
New moon on Monday
And a firedance through the night
I stayed the cold day with a lonely satellite
New moon on Monday
And a firedance through the night
I stayed the cold day with a lonely satellite
Breaking away with the best of both worlds
A smile that you cant disguise
Every minute I keep finding
Clues that you leave behind
Save me from these reminders
As if Id forget tonight
This time La Luna
I light my torch and wave it for the
New moon on Monday
And a firedance through the night
I stayed the cold day with a lonely satellite
New moon on Monday
And a firedance through the night
I stayed the cold day with a lonely satellite
I light my torch and wave it for the
New moon on Monday
And a firedance through the night
I stayed the cold day with a lonely satellite
New moon on Monday
And a firedance through the night
I stayed the cold day with a lonely satellite
New moon on Monday
And a firedance through the night
I stayed the cold day with a lonely satellite
New moon on Monday
And a firedance through the night
I stayed the cold day with a lonely satellite |

Only came outside to watch the night fall with the rain
I heard you making patterns rhyme
Like some new romantic looking for the TV sound
Youll see Im right some other time
Look now, look all around, theres no sign of life
Voices, another sound, can you hear me now?
This is Planet Earth, youre looking at Planet Earth
Bop bop bop bop bop bop bop bop this is Planet Earth
My head is stuck on something precious
Let me know if youre coming down to land
Is there anybody out there trying to get through?
My eyes are so cloudy I cant see you
Look now, look all around, theres no sign of life
Voices, another sound, can you hear me now?
This is Planet Earth, youre looking at Planet Earth
Bop bop bop bop bop bop bop bop
This is Planet Earth
Bop bop bop bop bop bop bop bop
Calling Planet Earth

Please, please tell me now
Please, please tell me now
Please, please tell me now
Please, please tell me now
I made a break, I run out yesterday
Tried to find my mountain hideaway
Maybe next year, maybe no go
I know youre watching me
Every minute of the day, yeah
Ive seen the signs
And the looks and the pictures
That give your game away, yeah
Theres a dream that strings the road
With broken glass for us to hold
And I cut so far before I had to say
Please, please tell me now
Is there something I should know?
Is there something I should say
That would make you come my way?
Do you feel the same?
Cause you dont let it show
People stare and cross the road from me
And jungle drums
They all clear the way for me
Can you read my mind?
Can you see in the snow?
And fiery demons all dance
When you walk through that door
Dont say youre easy on me
Youre about as easy as a nuclear war
Theres a dream that strings the road
With broken glass for us to hold
And I cut so far before I had to say
Please, please tell me now
Is there something I should know?
Is there something I should say
That would make you come my way?
Do you feel the same?
Cause you dont let it show
Please, please tell me now
Is there something I should know?
Is there something I should say
That would make you come my way?
Please, please tell me now
Can you see what makes me blow?
Can you see how much Id die
Every time it passes by?
Please, please tell me now
What it takes to make it show
Is there something I should know?
Is there something I should know? |
Telegram force and ready
I knew this was a big mistake
Theres a fine line drawing
My senses together
And I think its about to break
If I listen close I can hear them singers
Voices in your body coming through on the radio
The Union of the Snake is on the climb
Moving up its gonna race its gonna break
Through the borderline
Nightshades on a warning
Give me strength at least give me a light
Give me anything even sympathy
Theres a chance you could be right
If I listen close I can hear them singers
Voices in your body coming through on the radio
The Union of the Snake is on the climb
Moving up its gonna race its gonna break

The Union of the Snake is on the climb
Moving up its gonna race its gonna break

If I listen close I can hear them singers
Voices in your body coming through on the radio
The Union of the Snake is on the climb
Moving up its gonna race its gonna break
Through the borderline
The Union of the Snake is on the climb
Moving up its gonna race its gonna break
Gonna move up to the borderline
The Union of the Snake is on the climb
Moving up its gonna race its gonna break
Through the borderline |
Ive been now sauntering
Out and down the path sometime
Come on, it takes me nowhere, which I know
Faces everywhere pulling grins and signs in things
Telling me not there, man, its no go
I need a reason
I cant think without one now
Too much learning got to show
Call it treason
Maybe catch her, dont know how
Too many things, too much to know
Ill bring my timing in, seagulls gather on the wind
Lady screaming, lady leave me out
Cause sometimes people stare
Sitting down, electric chair
Steaming crowds they gather and they shout
Dont know why this evil bothers me
Take another chance boy, carry the fight
You can take him if youre fast
So why is he trying to follow me?
Didnt I say if youre holding on
Youd be laughing at the last
How many reasons do they need?
I get along fine with them friends of mine
But you have to make a choice
I might just believe this time
Youre singing out of tune but the beats in time
And its us who makes the noise
Im talking for free, I cant stop myself
Its a new religion
Ive something to see, I cant help myself
Its a new religion
Okay, my reasoning might be clouded by the sun
But someone sees the departmental lie
You know this peacetime jabbing fist in stabbing knife
Only get one look before you die
Dont know why this evil bothers me
Take another chance boy, carry the fight
You can take him if youre fast
So why is he trying to follow me?
Didnt I say if youre holding on
Youd be laughing at the last
How many reasons do they need?
I get along fine with them friends of mine
But you have to make a choice
I might just believe this time
Youre singing out of tune but the beats in time
And its us who makes the noise
Im talking for free, I cant stop myself
Its a new religion
Ive something to see, I cant help myself
Its a new religion
Got to take pay the saints n sinners
In regulation hats n scarves n things
Walking in formation down the lane
They carry their cross, make a church bell ring
Army majors pull a mean cool truth
Theyre lying in a swimming pool
Searching for the undeniable truth that
A man is just a fool
Dont know why this evil bothers me
Take another chance boy, carry the fight
You can take him if youre fast
So why is he trying to follow me?
Didnt I say if youre holding on
Youd be laughing at the last
How many reasons do they need?
I get along fine with them friends of mine
But you have to make a choice
I might just believe this time
Youre singing out of tune but the beats in time
And its us who makes the noise
Im talking for free, I cant stop myself
Its a new religion
Ive something to see, I cant help myself
Its a new religion |

Pressure off, pressure off, pressure pressure pressure off
Past is another country
The present will never last
The future, its still tomorrow
Are we living too fast?
Searchlight the crowd, Im fixed on your face
I know it well, but its a dream I cant place
Something is happening to me
Maybe its happening to you, you, you, you
Everybody everywhere, feel it in the air

Theres a way out of this into the blue
Something is happening to me
Maybe its happening to you, you, you, you
Everybody everywhere, feel it in the air

Im lost, dont wanna be found
Im up and not gonna be down
Outside looking in on myself
Just me, I couldnt be anyone else
Is it bad when youre feeling this good?
Are we all misunderstood?
Its fine, going out of my mind
Going out of my mind, going out of my mind
Everybody everywhere , feel it in the air
Oh yeah , its time to take the pressure off
Everybody everywhere, step out into the future
Its time to take the pressure off

I saw you at the air race yesterday
April showers get out of my way
Fear of flying no not me
Im never bothered what you say
Someones kid just lives for today
It aint your problem anyway
Cause Ive got my own way, I can find my own way, cause Ive got my own way
Cause Ive got my own way, I can find my own way, cause Ive got my own way
Number one
Public figure what a pain
Just puts another rattle in your brain
Take another green but its not the same
So now youre on the sand lane everyday
Dancing with the bulls in any old way
Running like a fox to keep up with me
Im on 45 between 6th and Broadway,
7UP between 6th and Broadway |
All the paper Gods in the sky of gray
All the fools in town are ruling today, today
Bow to the paper Gods in a world that is paper thin
The fools in town are ruling now
Bleeding from paper cuts, money for head shots
Fools leading
Who needs it?
Duran Duran
Hey girl, want it all the talking men declares
Go running to be first in line for what? Nobody cares
The next thing you must have, find peace with matching bag
Its nothing to be glad about, or sad when you forget about it
And while the race is on, the rats will run the streets
The slaver in a sweatshop, putting trainers on your feet
Im walking through the rain, oblivious to pain
To shelter from the blame without a reason to complain about it
Oh, oh, oh, dont complain about it
Oh, oh, oh, dont complain about it
Oh, oh, oh, forget about it
Oh, oh, oh, oh
Mr. Hudson
Bow to the paper Gods in a world that is paper thin
The fools in town are ruling now
Bleeding from paper cuts, money for head shots
Fools leading
Who needs it?
Duran Duran
Shes staring out in underwear, from your computer screen
Its all on sale for dirty cash, we can wash it clean
So hang it out online, confess and youll feel fine
And if you got the time to spare we want to know
Which name youre wearing
And when the final curtain finally comes down
Well all be in the party room, no wiser as to how
The total human race became a basket case
Its nothing to lose face about it
Its really not a place to doubt it
Bow to the paper Gods in a world that is paper thin
The fools in town are ruling now
Bleeding from paper cuts, money for head shots
Fools leading
Who needs it?
Paper Gods falling down
Paper house, paper town
Paper Gods falling down
Paper world just falling down
Paper Gods falling down
Paper house, paper town
Paper Gods falling down
Paper world just falling down
Falling down, falling down
Falling down, falling down
Falling down, falling down
Bow to the paper Gods in a world that is paper thin
The fools in town are ruling now
Bleeding from paper cuts, they go for the money shots
The fools leading
Who needs them?
All the paper Gods in the sky of gray
All the fools in town are ruling today, today |

Hold back the rain
Yes were miles away from nowhere
And the wind doesnt have a name
So call it what you want to call it
Still blows down the lane
And if the fires burn out theres only fire to blame
No time for worry cause were on the roam again
The clouds all scatter and we ride the outside lane
Not on your own so help me please hold back the rain
Okay go off and wander
Im guilty just the same
Sometimes youre needed badly
So please come back again
Hold back the rain, hold back the rain. hold back the rain
Hold back the rain , hold back the rain
, hold back the rain
Hold back the rain , hold back the rain |
I knew when I first saw you on the showroom floor
You were made for me
I took you home and dressed you up in polyester
Princess of my dreams
Emotionless and cold as ice
All of the things I like
The way you look
The way you move
The sound youre making
In ultra-chrome, latex and steel
I plug you in
Dim the lights
Electric Barbarella
Your perfect skin
Plastic kiss
Electric Barbarella
Try to resist
Then we touch
Hallucinate and tranquilize
Shes so fine
Shes all mine
Our private life is subject to investigation
No time to waste
People say they heard about our deviation
But you never looked so good
Wear the fake fur and fake pearls for me
And put on your mystery
The way I feel you know
Ill never keep you waiting
In ultra-chrome, latex and steel
Princess of my dreams
Princess of my dreams
Major domo plasticomo Barbarella
Pro-genetic you Electric Barbarella
My pretty pretty pretty pretty Barbarella |
Working on the weekend, baby
Shes working all through the night
A jump into the deep end gave her
The evidence she required
Takes five, shes got pearls
Dont fake it when it comes to making money
So she smiles, but thats cruel
If you know what she thinks
If you knew what she was after
Sometimes she wonders
And she laughs in her frustration
Would someone, please, explain
The reason for this strange behavior
In exploitations name
We must be working for the Skin Trade
Doctors of the revolution gave us
The medicine we desired
Besides being absolutely painless
Its a question of compromise
They got steel
So cool to get angry at the weekend
And go back to school
So big deal, its what rule
When it comes to making money
Say yes, please, thank you
Sometimes you wonder
And ask yourself the question
Would someone, please, explain
The reason for this strange behavior
In exploitations name
We must be working for the Skin Trade
Would someone, please, explain
The reason for this strange behavior
In exploitations name
We must be working for the Skin Trade
I know the answer
But you asking the question
Would someone, please, explain
The reason for this strange behavior
In exploitations name
We must be working for the Skin Trade
Would someone, please, explain
The reason for this strange behavior
In exploitations name
We must be working for the Skin Trade
Would someone, please, explain
The reason for this strange behavior
In exploitations name
We must be working for the Skin Trade
Would someone, please, explain
The reason for this strange behavior
In exploitations name
We must be working for the Skin Trade... |
See them walking hand in hand across the bridge at midnight
Heads turning as the lights flashing out are so bright
And walk right out to the four line track
Theres a camera rolling on her back, on her back
And I sense a rhythm humming in a frenzy
All the way down her spine...
Girls on film
Girls on film
Girls on film
Girls on film...
Lipstick cherry all over the lens as shes falling
And miles of sharp blue water coming in where she lies
The diving mans coming up for air
cause the crowd all love pulling dolly by the hair, by the hair
And she wonders how she ever got here
As she goes under again...
Girls on film
Girls on film
Girls on film
Girls on film...
Wider, baby, smile and youve just made a million
Fuses pumping live heat twisting out on a wire
Take one last glimpse into the night
Im touching close
Im holding bright, holding tight
Give me shudders in a whisper
Take me up til Im shooting a star...
Girls on film
Girls on film
Girls on film

How does it feel
When everyone surrounds you?
How do you deal?
Do crowds just make you feel lonely?
What do you say
When people come and try to pin you down?
Acquaintances smile
But thats no understanding
How, after a while
You keep falling off the same mountain?
Try to explain it
But nothing really gets them that high
Steal away in the morning
Loves already history to you
Its a habit youre forming
This bodys desperate for something new
Just a matter of feeling
These moments of madness are sure to pass
And tears will dry as youre leaving
Who knows, you might find something to last
Emotions a game
Saved up for a rainy Monday
But you laugh just the same
Cause its been pouring on Sunday
Call up your numbers
And never let the zeros bring you down
How does it feel?
Is time too heavy to hold?
Whatever you decide for the moment is Holy
Whenever you slow down to see life is passing by
Steal away in the morning
Loves already history to you
Its a habit youre forming
This bodys desperate for something new
Just a matter of feeling
These moments of madness are sure to pass
And tears will dry as youre leaving
Who knows, you might find something to last
You can
Steal away in the morning
Loves already history to you
Its a habit youre forming
This bodys desperate for something new
Just a matter of feeling
These moments of madness are sure to pass
And tears will dry as youre leaving
Who knows, you might find something to last
A matter of feeling
A matter of feeling
A matter of feeling
A matter of feeling... |
Even on the darkest night when empty promise means empty hand
And soldiers coming home like shadows turning red
And when the lights of hope are fading quickly then look to me
Ill be your homing angel Ill be in your head
Because youre lonely in your nightmare let me in
And theres heat beneath your winter let me in
I see the delta traces living lonely out on the limb
And a passing glimmer warm beneath your skin
Please tread gently on the ground when all around you earth turns to fire
Only get a second chance when dangers on the wind
Because youre lonely in your nightmare let me in
And theres heat beneath your winter let me in
Must be lucky weather when you find the kind of wind that you need
Come on show me all the light and shade that made your name
I know youve got it in your head Ive seen that look before
Youve built your refuge turns you captive all the same
Because youre lonely in your nightmare let me in
And its barren in your garden let me in
Because theres heat beneath your winter let me in
Because youre so lonely in your nightmare let me in
And its cold out on the stone range let me in
Because theres heat beneath your winter let me in |
You saw me standing by the old
Corner of main street
And the lights are flashing on your window sill
All alone aint much fun
So youre looking for the thrill
And you know just what it takes and where to go
Dont say a prayer for me now
Save it till the morning after
No, dont say a prayer for me now
Save it till the morning after
Feel the breeze deep on the inside
Look you down into your well
If you can, youll see the world in all his fire
Take a chance
Like all dreamers cant find another way
You dont have to dream at all, just live a day
Dont say a prayer for me now
Save it till the morning after
No, dont say a prayer for me now
Save it till the morning after
Save it till the morning after
Save it till the morning after
Pretty looking road
I try to hold the rising floods that fill my skin
Dont ask me why Ill keep my promise
Melt the ice
And you wanted to dance, so I asked you to dance
But fear is in your soul
Some people call it a one night stand
But we can call it paradise
Dont say a prayer for me now
Save it till the morning after
No, dont say a prayer for me now
Save it till the morning after
Save it till the morning after
Save it till the morning after
Save it till the morning after
Save a prayer till the morning after
Save a prayer till the morning after
Save a prayer till the morning after
Save a prayer till the morning after |
I dont remember quite how I met you wasnt long ago
I just get a picture of sun in your eyes the waves in your hair
Maybe its something said in a movie or you couldve said last night
It just took me out on a limb and I dont really know what Im doing here
And sometimes Im caught in a landslide and my beats so in time, can you look at me?
Im out of reach Ill talk if it feels right, Ive had my last chance on the stairway
Funny its just like a scene out of Voltaire twisting out of sight
Cause when all the curtains are pulled back well turn and see the circles weve traced
Aint no game when youre playing with fire
It doesnt seem right that we fight so the party runs on all night
And sometimes Im caught in a landslide and my beats so in time, can you look at me?
Im out of reach Ill talk if it feels right, so nervous to say, tell me cant you see?
And if you want Ill fall out forever, I cant say no more, baby dance with me
And please dont say leave it till later, Ive had my last chance on the stairway
Wonder why what makes me rise so high
Maybe its something they put in your perfume or the look in your eyes
It could be the atmosphere sinking, oh, I dont know what youre thinking
I dont even know what youre drinking, but it keeps this heaven alive
And sometimes Im caught in a landslide and my beats so in time, can you look at me?
Im out of reach Ill talk if it feels right, so nervous to say, tell me cant you see?
And if you want Ill fall out forever, I cant say no more, baby dance with me
And please dont say leave it till later, Ive had my last chance on the stairway
Last chance on the stairway
Last chance on the stairway
Last chance on the stairway
Last chance on the stairway
Last chance on the stairway
Last chance on the stairway
Last chance on the stairway |

Friends of mine
They said they were friends of mine
Said they were passing time
More like a waste of time
Close the door
I said close the door
Ive told you twice before
What are you waiting for?
Georgie Davis is coming out
No more heroes we twist and shout
Oh no, not me, Im not too late
And I know that Im not taking anymore
Rocky Picture has lost his gun
Leave him out now hes having fun
Oh no, not me, Im not too late
And I know that Im not waiting anymore, hey, hey
Silly lies
Dont have to advertise
When will you realize?
Im sick of your alibis
Running cold
The waters running cold
Its time that you were told
I think youre growing old
Georgie Davies is coming out
No more heroes we twist and shout
Oh no, not me, Im not too late
And I know that Im not waiting anymore
Rocky Picture has lost his gun
Leave him out now hes having fun
Oh no, not me, Im not too late
And I know that Im not taking any more
I see you smile
Pictures on the wall, theyre all friends of mine
See you standing round the back
Think yourself lucky
Friends of mine
They said they were friends of mine
They were just wasting time
Out on the dotted line
Oh, moneys gone
Ive known it all along
Why dont you say Im wrong?
Why dont they drop the bomb?
Cause Georgie Davies is coming out
No more heroes we twist and shout
Oh no, not me, Im not too late
And I know that Im not waiting anymore
Rocky Pictures thrown away his gun
Leave him out now hes having fun
Oh no, not me, Im not too late
And I know that Im not taking any more
What you doing, friends of mine?
Holding back now, friends of mine
Ive always heard you calling |
Destroyed by MTV
I hate to bite the hand that
Feeds me so much information
The pressures on the screen
To sell you things that you dont need
Its too much information for me
Hey TV child look into my eyes
Here by intervention I want your attention
Promotion boy in a suit and tie
He wants you to use it
Youre too shot to loose it
Its pumping down the cable
Like never seen before
A cola manufacturer is sponsoring the war
Here comes the news with love from me to you
Destroyed by ABC
I hate to bite the hand that
Feeds me so much information
The pressures on the screen
To sell you things that you dont need
Its too much information for me
Turn on the tube
Hits you with the groove
Advertizing music
We want you to choose it
These teeth are white trainers ultra bright
This band is perfect just dont scratch the surface
We covered all the angles
The survey people said
Just put us on the cover well be smiling anyway
This video was made with love to you
Destroyed by BBC
I hate to bite the hand that
Feeds me so much information
The pressures on the screen to
Sell you things that you dont need
Its too much information for me
Destroyed by MTV
I hate to bite the hand that
Feeds me so much information
The pressures on the screen to
Sell you things that you dont need
Its too much information for me
Dialate your mind
Got to give it to me
Got to listen to me
Got to give in to me
Now Im on the line
I try...... |
So soon
Just after youve gone
My senses sharpen
But it always takes
So damned long
Before I feel how much
My eyes have darkened
Fear hangs a plane of gun smoke
Drifting in our room
So easy to disturb
With a thought
With a whisper
With a careless memory
On the table
Signs of love life scattered
And the walls break
We go crashing within
Its not as though
As though you really mattered
But being close
How could I let you go
Without some feeling
Some precious sympathy following
I walk out into the sun
I try to find a new day
But the whole place
It just screams in my eyes
Where are you now?
Cause I dont want to meet you
I think Id die
I think Id laugh at you
I think Id cry
What am I supposed to do
Follow you? |
I dont mind if youre keeping someone else behind
I dont care cause youve got something I can share
Hey, take a chance, even if its only
Only while were dancing in the
Light of your second sight because
When you understand me
You might feel good around me now
I dont want your love to bring me down
I dont want your love so turn it around
I wont turn you out if youve got someone else
Someone else you care about
Because you must realise
My obsessive fascination is in your imagination
I dont want your love to bring me down
I dont want your love so turn it around
I dont want your love, I dont want your love
Your rhythm is the power to move me
Its something you control completely
I dont want your love
I dont want your love
I like noise cause, I like waking up the house
I cannot sit down. I cant shut my mouth
But when you understand me
You might feel good around me
I dont want your love to bring me down
I dont want your love so turn it around
Your rhythm is the power to move me
Its something you control completely
I dont want your love
I dont want your love |
I am I, myself alone
Realize I never need to use no one
When it comes down to my soul
Freedom puts my faith in none of the above
There was a time I was so afraid
Of everything people around me said
That I wanted to hide my face in the shadows
There was a time on a bed of nails
I was dreaming a plan up that could not fail
But no power under the sun could pull it together
Cant take this attitude
Got to show now ive got to move on
God knows where Im going to
Its a lonely burning question
I am I myself alone
Realize i never need to use no-one
Money, power, holy roads
Freedom puts my faith in none of the above
If theres a time that we ever see
The nature of life in reality
Then I want to be there
To kick at the answer
I am I myself alone
Realize I never need to use no-one
When it comes down to my soul
Freedom puts my faith in none of the above
I am I myself alone
Realize I never need to use no-one
Money, power, holy roads
Freedom puts my faith in none of the above
None of the above
My faith in none of the above
None of the above
I stand by none of the above
None of the above
I stand by none of the above |
Child, dont you worry
Its enough youre growing up in such a hurry
Brings you down, the news they sell you
To put in your mind that all mankind is a failure
But nobody knows whats going to happen tomorrow
We try not to show how frightened we are
If you let me - Ill protect you - however I can
Youve got to believe itll be alright in the end
Youve got to believe itll be alright again
Fighting because were so close
There are times we punish those who we need the most
No, we cant wait for a saviour
Only got ourselves to blame for this behaviour
But nobody knows whats going to happen tomorrow
We try not to show how frightened we are
It could seem lonely - if you are the only - star in the night
Youve got to believe itll be alright in the end
Youve got to believe itll be alright again
But nobody knows whats going to happen tomorrow
So dont let go, now weve come this far
Hold my hand please - understand me - youre never alone
Weve got to believe itll be alright in the end
Youve got to believe itll be alright my friend
And yes we believe itll be alright again |
White! Ooh-white! White! Ooh-white!
Vision dreams of passion
And all the while I think of you
A very strange reaction
The more I see, the more I do
Something of a phenomenon
Telling your body to come along
Cause White Lines blow away
Blow! Rock! Blow!
Ticket to ride a white-line highway
Tell all your friends they can go my way
Pay your toll, sell your soul
Pound for pound it costs more than gold
The longer you stay, the more you pay
My white lines go a long way
Either up your nose or through your vein
With nothing to gain except killing your brain
Freeze!
Rock
Freeze!
Rock
Freeze!
Rock
Freeze!
Rock
Aaaaah...
Higher baby, get higher baby, get higher baby
And dont ever come down... Free base!
Pipeline
Connected to my mind
Highrise
Cause it makes you feel so nice
Tell me itll blow your mind away
Going to your little hideaway
Cause white lines
Blow away
Blow! - Rock! - Blow!
A million magic crystals painted pure and white
A multi-million dollars almost overnight
Twice as sweet as sugar, twice as bitter as salt
And if you get hooked baby
Its nobody elses fault - so dont do it!
Dont you get too high, baby
You really turn me on and on
My temperature is rising
No, I dont want you to go
A street kid gets arrested, gonna do some time
He got out three years from now
Just to commit more crime
A businessman is caught with twenty four kilos
Hes out on bail, and out of jail
And thats the way it goes!
Cane! Sugar! Cane! Sugar! Cane!
Athletes reject it - governors correct it
Gangsters, punks, and smugglers are
Thoroughly respected
The money gets divided - the women get excited
Now Im broke and its no joke
Its hard as hell to fight it - dont buy it! |
Once was a man who consumed his place and time
He thought nothing could touch him
But here and now its a different storyline
Like the straw he is clutching
Why has the sky turned grey
Hard to my face and cold on my shoulder
And why has my life gone astray
Scarred by disgrace, I know that its over
Because Im falling down
With people standing round
But before I hit the ground
Is there time
Could I find someone out there to help me?
Howl at the wind rushing past my lonely head
Caught inside its own motion
How I wish it was somebody else instead
Howling at all this corrosion
Why did the luck run dry
Laugh in my face, so pleased to desert me
Why do the cruel barbs fly?
Now when disgrace can no longer hurt me |
Those words are all remainders
Echoes growing in the heart of twilight
They lay back laughing at naivetes star
Awaken all those whispers in the dusty shadow of a
Passing favor
I wouldnt say that you were ruthless or right
I couldnt see from so far
Was I chasing after rainbows
One thing for sure you never answered when I called
And I wiped away the water from my face
To look through the eyes of a stranger
For rumors in the wake of such a lonely crowd
Trading in my shelter for danger
Im changing my name just as the sun goes down
In the eyes of a stranger
Cant tell the real from reflections
When all these faces look the same to me
In every city such a desolate dream
Some days are strange to number
Some say the seventh sounds a little bit stranger
A year of Sundays seems to have drifted right by
in one evening
And Im not seized in desperation
No steel reproaches on the table from before
But I still can feel those splinters of ice
I look through the eyes of a stranger
For rumors in the wake of such a lonely crowd
Trading in my shelter for danger
Im changing my name just as the sun goes down
In the eyes of a stranger
I must be chasing after rainbows
One thing for sure you never answer when I call
And I wipe away the water from my face
To look through the eyes of a stranger
For rumors in the wake of such a lonely crowd
Trading in my shelter for danger
Im changing my name just as the sun goes down
In the eyes of a stranger
In the eyes of a stranger... |
Oh woman you make me feel
Like Im on fire
Oh woman you make it real
Its the only way for me
So if we sometimes fight
Doesnt mean we got problems
Aint always black and white
Who cares anyway?
Ooh, doesnt have to be serious
Ooh, doesnt have to be serious
Serious
Doesnt have to be serious
Oh baby you get so wild
Too much understanding
Oh baby youre such a child
Full up with on love and tears and crying
Dont worry if youre confused
We all tend to be sometimes
The whole world is getting used
Thats just the way it is
Maybe right, ooh it may be wrong
Doesnt have to be serious
Being hard isn’t being strong
Doesn’t have to be serious
Fighting for love, fighting for pain
Ooh, doesn’t have to be serious
And if you win, oh what do you gain
Doesn’t have to be serious |
Walking by the wall
The shadows will not fall
Is silently ignored
Discouraged by the noise
Living without choice
Is a life without a voice
When you cant even say my name
Has the memory gone? Are you feeling numb?
Go and call my name
I cant play this game, so I ask again
Will you say my name?
Has the memory gone? Are you feeling numb?
Or have I become invisible?
Thе dreamers wish away
Its falling on my face
Thе shape of my disgrace
When you dont hear a word I say
As the talking goes, its a one-way flow
No fault, no blame
Has the memory gone? Are you feeling numb?
And have I become invisible?
No one hears a word they say
Has the memory gone? Are you feeling numb?
Not a word they say
But a voiceless crowd isnt backing down
When the air turns red
With a loaded hesitation
Can you say my name?
Has the memory gone? Are you feeling numb?
Have we all become invisible? |
Youre thin ice
I should be on solid ground
An oh so quiet vice
I can hear that cracking sound
But i remain
Despite your deadly aim
To drive another lad insane
When you wont speak
My name
You kill me with silence thats your style girl youre letting me know
This deafening silence the only reason that youre in control
Its emotional violence i cant breathe now but i cant let go
You kill me with silence
True to life
Things are hotting up in here
If I had a knife
You could cut the atmosphere
Something else
I like this bed of nails
Thats what I tell myself
Couldnt be much worse in hell
You kill me with silence thats your style girl your letting me know
This deafening silence
The only reason that youre in control
Its emotional violence I cant breathe now but I cant let go
You kill me with silence
You kill me with silence
Kill me with silence |
Its beautiful, the dying sun
The end of everything and everyone
So shall we make a clan my friend
As if we have the chance to live it all again
Ill see you in some other lifetime
On the other side of what well never know
Together we have walked a fine line
Now we go to face the universe alone
In plain view, the mistakes weve made
But is there anything youd really want to change?
To win and lose then win again
To have it all then throw it all away
Ill see you in some other lifetime
On the other side of what well never know
Together we have walked a fine line
Now we go to face the universe alone
How beautiful the closing down
The fading out, it spins and goes around
With darkness and the heart of man
And here we are back where it all began
Ill see you in some other lifetime
The universe alone
The universe alone
The universe alone |
When I first met you on the roof
You caught me in your web of youth
But now I know the wicked truth
Its much too late so whats the use in fighting?
You peel me like an onion skin
And wonder at the state Im in
One day youll turn up to begin
And find theres nothing left but innuendo
Beside you others fade away
Like amateurs in loves charade
Much more than just a game you play
These certain rules become a way of living
Night after night I try to prove
That I can resist you
Tied up inside your love voodoo
Designed to manipulate
The queen of sensuality
You shelter me from liberty
Its nothing short of piracy
Thats not to say it doesnt please me sometimes
Now this may come as no surprise
But Im content to compromise
Until the day you realize
That i have been manipulating you
Night after night I try to prove
That I can resist you
Tied up inside your love voodoo
Designed to manipulate
Yes, Im tied up inside your loving
But its voodoo to me
Every night how I try
How I try to resist you
But its no good to me
Night after night I try to prove
That I can resist you
Tied up inside your love voodoo
Designed to manipulate
Night after night I try to prove
That I can resist you
Tied up inside your love voodoo
Designed to manipulate |
Here I go again
I must have flowers in my brain
The same mistake I made before
But Im a hostage to that face of yours
Lay me on your bed
I watch you smoke my cigarette
I wish you knew whats in my head
I could be more than just a friend
Too bad youre so beautiful and so
Complicated
I may be a deluded fool but still
Fascinated
Too bad youre so beautiful when Im
King of nothing
This can only go one way
Ice queen on top of the mountain
Give me the freeze, minus twenty and counting
My lunar dreams, how do I stop them?
But its not your problem, when youre above it all
Lay me on your bed
I want to stroke your sleepy head
I wish that I was you instead
Of being just your weekday friend
Too bad youre so beautiful and so
Complicated
I may be a deluded fool but still
Fascinated
Too bad youre so beautiful when Im
King of nothing
This can only go one way
King of nowhere speaks another line
In the low light Im here to entertain
When it starts to rain
Im a lucky man...
Ahhhhhh
Too bad youre so its too bad youre soooo....
Oh-oh-oh-ohhhh
Beautiful, umm-uh-umm
Beautiful, its too bad
Just too bad, its too bad
Beautiful, ohh-ohh
Its too bad
Just too bad, its too bad |
Its a little bit late now
But theres times you will
Get a little bit out of hand
Making all of a spill
And if we can lay this down
Youre going all the way
Take a look and ill check it out
Cause i can always find it
Such a lonely place, ooh
This room without your face, ooh
Ooh, American science
All night long she can two-step and sway
Ooh, its such awful manners
Dont keep me waiting, come and lie beside me
A little megalomania becomes you, evidently
There aint a thing you can acquire
With your cling-wrap plaything
Just look at this state
I crawl around in a daze
Like symptomatic case
Of your soul persuasion
Such a lonely place, ooh
This room without your face, ooh
Ooh, American science
All night long she can two-step and sway
Ooh, its such awful manners
Dont keep me waiting, come and lie beside me
Ooh, its a little bit later now
And theres time you will let it all get
Out of hand when you feel you feel
I just switched on the operation
Such a lovely face, ooh
It pulls me into place, ooh
Ooh, American science
All night long she can two-step and sway
Ooh, its such awful manners
Dont keep me waiting, come and lie beside me
Ooh, American science
All night long she can two-step and sway
Ooh, its such awful manners
Dont keep me waiting, come and lie beside me
Ooh, American science
All night long she can two-step and sway
Ooh, its such awful manners
Dont keep me waiting, come and lie beside me... |
Every day I wake up in this room
And I dont know
Where I come from
Where Im going to
Then I hear the voice
Senhora musa da paz
Me abraca
Me carrega no teu andor
Dormir no colo da dor
Amiga, arrasa!
A tua mao desenhou
O sonho na areia
Agora, entrega de vez
Meu rumo
E vida
From where I stand
The truth isnt black and white
Alone we live and die
We love and fight
Breath after breath
We carry this mortal coil
Safe for tomorrow
Do I dare
Oh do I dare
Follow through the goorsteps
My whole body hears
Beating on my heart like a feather
Beating of a moment til I disappear
Diga uma palavra alegre
Manda um recado
Que seja agoca
Faz o mundo ficar novo
E dancar no colo do tal de amor
From where I stand
The truth isnt black and white
Alone we live and die
We love and fight
Breath after breath
We carry this mortal coil
Safe for tomorrow
Circles in sand are washed out into the sea
Just as we slip on through to eternity
Breath after breath
We carry this mortal coil
Safe for tomorrow
Diga uma palavra, cara
Bem alegre
Corre, manda logo um recado
Me abraca
Faz um clima doce
Me arrepia!
Chega de sufocol
Me poe louco!
Me faz diamante
Teu amante
Danca ao som do vento
Me ensina
Basta de sufoco
Nao faz jogo...
A flame of love is burning
Always
The song is of the planets
Oh whooooooo
The dance is to the rhythm of the rain
Where everyone is coming from
Is coming to
And birth is just a
Breath after breath |
Light a candle
Lay flowers at the door
For those who were left behind
And the ones whove gone before
But here it comes now
Sure as silence follows rain
The taste of you upon my lips
The fingers in my brain
Ever gentle as it kills me where I lay
Who am I to resist?
Who are you to fail?
Got to get you out of my mind
But I cant escape from the feeling
As I try to leave the memory behind
Without you, whats left to believe in?
And I could be so sorry
For the way it had to go
But now I feel your presence
In a way I could not know
And I wonder
Do you ever feel the same
In whispering darkness
Do you ever hear my name?
How could you dare
To become so real
When youre just a ghost in me
Here in the back of my mind
Deep in the back of my mind |
I came by invitation to general Chelsea mayhem
Then going on to somewhere
Yes, I was going somewhere
A single random meeting with your eyes and I am beaten
And now Im going nowhere
I know Im going nowhere
With all the voices in my head
The clever words I never said
Of all the things to happen
In a girl panic
Thats driving naked through my mind
Its a crush panic
Shes got me atomized
You beg me to get closer
Dress falling off your shoulder
Then heat is wrapping round us
This city strapped around us
Cause now I sense your mission is my coming demolition
And you just hold me under
I know Im going under
In a girl panic
The midnight traffic in her eyes
Like a Hypnotic, and I am mesmerized
You know, you know I want you
I know you know I want you
In a girl panic
A crush panic
Shes a Hypnotic
Its a girl panic |
Coming over ya
Danceophobia
Coming over ya
Get on the floor, what you gonna do?
Im in the system, Im trying to get to you
Weve both waited for so long
Nothing can stop us, come on this is our song
Look around
And forget the crowd
Take my hand
Sing it loud
I know what it is coming over you
You dont dance, danceophobia
I know what it is coming over you
You dont dance, dance enough
You dont dance
Youre in the car, we go and turn
Turn up the volume; am I getting through to you?
Open the window, see what you got
Im on the speakers, its time to hit the...
Look around
And forget the crowd
Take my hand
Sing it loud
I know what it is coming over you
You dont dance, danceophobia
I know what it is coming over you
You dont dance, dance enough
You dont dance
I know what it is coming over you
You dont dance, danceophobia
I know what it is coming over you
You dont dance, dance enough
You dont dance
Can you hear me?
If you can hear me let me know
I am your doctor
You may be experiencing feelings of confusion
Dont be afraid, Ive seen these symptoms before
10-20 new cases each week
We call this condition, danceophobia
Im going to keep you in for observation
I may have to work on you throughout the night
We have to trust each other
And together, together
I think we can beat this thing before the music ends
I know what it is coming over you
You dont dance, danceophobia
I know what it is coming over you
You dont dance, dance enough
You dont dance
I know what it is coming over you
You dont dance, danceophobia
I know what it is coming over you
You dont dance, dance enough
You dont dance |
Any other day and you might have gone walking by
Without a second look
Any other way but Im still mystified
Im just trying to change my luck
Staring out the world and waiting for the one
But the world wont look away
The world does not explain
So, what are the chances?
Well never know
If we take it for granted
A diamond explodes
What are the chances?
Playing with your life or is it destiny
Which sets you on a path
Is it out of choice that youre here next to me
Or just the aftermath
Of moments as they pass
So, what are the chances?
Well never know
If we take it for granted
A diamond explodes
What are the chances?
We are lost in the flow
And looking for answers
So, what are the chances?
Well never know
If we take it for granted
A diamond explodes
What are the chances?
We are lost in the flow
And looking for answers |
I never found out what made you leave
And now the day is over, just an hour to go
I tried to phone last night but you didnt answer
Just left me ringing on the line
Outside is there anyone out there, anyone else outside
Outside love is there anyone out there, anyone else outside
My face in the mirror shows the break in time
A crack in the ocean which does not align
I tried to sleep last night but Ive caught your dreaming
About days we used to wonder away
Outside is there anyone out there, anyone else outside
Outside love is there anyone out there, anyone else outside
Look out of the window maybe you can call by my name
Another night over babe another light comes on in vain
I tried to phone last night but you never answered
Just left me ringing in the air
Is there anyone out there |
Ive been in this grass here
For the last ten hours
My clothes are dirty
But my mouth isnt dry
How does it happen?
Does it fly through the air?
Woah I gave up asking days away
I gave up asking days away
And now Im lying here
Waiting for the sound of thunder
Waiting for the sound of thunder
Here I am Im a dotted line
Cut in through corners
Stick me through your door
Im the man who stepped off the path
And I just lying here
Thats what I was made for
And now my eyes are closing
But I still feel the land
Leaning out for the touch of my hand
The world spins so fast
That I might fly off
The world spins so fast
That I might fly off
The world spins so fast
I might fly off
Waiting for the sound of thunder
Im waiting for the sound of thunder
Im waiting for the sound of thunder
Im waiting for the sound of thunder
Im waiting for the sound of thunder
Im waiting for the sound of thunder
Im waiting for the sound of thunder
Im waiting for the sound of thunder |
Standing on the edge of a quay
Low lights flashing on the water for me
Fogging my mind darkens my eyes
Silently streaming for a distant sound
Ripple river yellows
Rising for a breath of breeding and drowns
Stillness overcomes me in the night
Listen to the rising water moan
Im waiting
Waiting for the night bo-oh-oat
Im waiting
Waiting for the night boat
Shudders all through me shudder away
Echo me, echo me
Am I alone or is the river alive
Cause it echos me, echos me, echos me
Im waiting
Waiting for the night bo-oh-oat
Im waiting
Waiting for the night boat
Waiting
Waiting for the night bo-oh-oat
Im waiting
Waiting for the night boat
Waiting for the night bo-oh-oat
Im waiting
Waiting for the night boat
Im waiting for the night boat |
A little ray of comfort
In the after-noon
To brighten up the room
To lighten up your mood
The whole world is an ink spot
On a plastic spoon
You can find it, or invite it
Live beside it, laughing until youre crying
Hold on to your time, boy
Dont be scared of what they say
Youre putting a fight, girl
If you got the face for today, yeah!
Around, around the wall of death
Around you go
What keeps you in the air
Is having not they care, yeah
And time flies like a dancing man
On crystal glow
You can find it, or invite it
Live beside it, laugh until youre crying
Hold on to your time, boy
Dont be scared of what they say
Youre putting a fight, girl
Youve got that things which makes them smile, yeah
Hold on to your time, boy
Wake up on that speeding train
Youre putting a fight, girl
If you got the face for today, yeah!
When you got the face for today, yeah
Hold on to your time, boy
Dont be scared of what they say
Youre putting a fight, girl
Youve got that things which makes them smile, yeah
Hold on to your time, boy
Wake up on that speeding train
Youre putting a fight, girl
If you got the face for today, yeah!
The face for today, yeah
The face for today, yeah |
Looking up from the polar sheet
Out in the stars theres one I want to meet
I am a signal somewhere in your bliss
So do you hear, do you hear my wish?
You coming down now... from there?
You coming round now... to share?
You got a thing that...
I care, I care about, I care about
If you want to stay tonight
Write your name across the sky
Nothing I would rather like
Than see you in the Northern lights
Up on the roof I listen for the moan
Of your soft footstep on the snow
Now and then somebody elses glow
As they tune in to watch the show
You coming down now... from there?
You coming round now... to share?
You got a thing that...
I care, I care about, I care about
If you want to stay tonight
Write your name across the sky
Nothing I would rather like
Than see you in the Northern lights
If you want to play the night
We could take an evening flight
Shine out from a higher height
Then well be in the Northern lights
If you want to stay tonight
Write your name across the sky
Nothing I would rather like
Than see you in the Northern lights
If you want to play the night
We could take an evening flight
Shine out from a higher height
Then well be in the Northern lights
Write your name across the sky
Write your, write your name
Write your name across the sky |
I shed my skin
When the party was about to begin
Im light years away but Im walking back tonight
Of all nights
When I should be feeling just right
Dont want to be in public
My head is full of chopstick
I dont like it
Something on my mind
Breaking open doors I had sealed up before
Something on my mind
Makes me run when I thought Id run too far
Somebody shaking my tree
Maybe that somebody is me
Im standing in the light but
Im making a break for the shadows
On the cinema wall
They should be mine but Im not that tall
Now Im saying this in private
If I had a car Id drive it
Insane
Im looking for cracks in the pavement |
Wise on a birthday party
In a world full of surprising fireworks
And sudden silence
Sh......
Lies on a strangers bed
The new day breaks like a speeding train or an old friend
Never expected, but never knocking
Holding your own in a battered car
All night parties, cocktail bars and smile
When the butterfly escapes the killing jar
Sure eyes awake before the dancing is over
Wise or naked in secret Oktober
Freefall on a windy morning shore
Nothing but a fading track of footsteps
Could prove that youd ever been there
Spoken on a cotton cloud
Like the sound of gunshot taken by the wind
And lost in distant thunder
Racing on a shining plain
And tomorrow youll be content to watch
As the lightning plays along the wires and youll wonder
x |
Do you know where we are?
Im longing for the dark
Of our nocturnal life
It begins and ends with you
Dont spill my secret
You were once running wild hiding in the morning mist
Game demands I make you mine
I thought that I could resist but the leopard in you
Silently preyed on me
I made my way back home
I handled her with care
So elegant and sleek
I need her to be near
Dont spill my secret
You were once running wild hiding in the morning mist
Game demands I make you mine
Thought that I could resist but the leopard in you
Silently preyed on me
Deserted by my friends
Shes so much more than them
So now shes just for me
I watch her while she sleeps
Dont spill my secret
Since we were last outside
Now that weve both been tamed
Prisoners of our thoughts
Dont spill my secret |
I never found out what made you leave
Another days over just an hour to go
Well I tried to phone last night but you never answered
Just left me ringing on the line
Outside is there anyone out there anyone else outside
Woah outside love is there anyone out there anyone else outside
My face in the mirror shows a break in time
A crack in the ocean, it does not align
I tried to sleep last night, but Ive caught ya dreaming
About days we used to wonder away
Look out of the window maybe you can call by my name
Another night over babe another light comes on in vain
Well I tried to phone last night but you never answered
You just left me ringing in the air |
Moving on the floor now, babe, youre a bird of paradise
Cherry ice cream smile, I suppose its very nice
With a step to your left and a flick to the right
You catch that mirror way out west
You know youre something special, and you look like youre the best
Her name is Rio and she dances on the sand
Just like that river twisting through a dusty land
And when she shines, she really shows you all she can
Oh, Rio, Rio dance across the Rio Grande
Ive seen you on the beach and Ive seen you on TV
Two of a billion stars, it means so much to me
Like a birthday or a pretty view
But then, Im sure that you know its just for you
Her name is Rio and she dances on the sand
Just like that river twisting through a dusty land
And when she shines, she really shows you all she can
Oh, Rio, Rio dance across the Rio Grande
Ha ha ha, ah ha ha
Hey now, woo, look at that
Did she nearly run you down?
At the end of the drive, the lawmen arrive
You make me feel alive, alive, alive
Ill take my chance, cause luck is on my side or something
I know what youre thinking, Ill tell you something, I know what youre thinking
Her name is Rio and she dances on the sand
Just like that river twists across a dusty land
And when she shines, she really shows you all she can
Oh, Rio, Rio dance across the Rio Grande
Her name is Rio, she dont need to understand
And I might find her if Im looking like I can
Oh Rio, Rio, hear them shout across the land
From mountains in the north down to the Rio Grande |
Waking out of nowhere
And i let you in
Til my imagination went for a spin
I seen you every night
Been making out since then
And still i wonder why everybodys saying
That ice is thin
And i think i know you
Just a little bit by now
And i think i can show you
You see baby, i dont want to fight about it
Send down your rain
Then whos to blame
And youll understand
Because its much too late to change
Awaken to this hunger
And then watch my heat
Grow paler than the moonlight
That you made me eat
And if we run our lives
Along a one way street
Well always wonder why every-time
It still tastes just as sweet
And i think i know you
Just a little bit by now
And i think i can show you
You see baby, i dont want to fight about it
Send down your rain
Then whos to blame
Youll understand
Because its much too late to change
I will explain
Were to much the same
No i wont leave
Because its just too late Marlene
You see baby, i dont want to fight about it
Send down your rain
Then whos to blame
Youll understand
Because its much too late to change
I will explain
Were to much the same
No I wont leave
Because its just too late Marlene
Too late, too late
Too late Marlene
Too late, too late
Too late Marlene
Too late, too late
Too late Marlene
Too late, too late
Too late Marlene
Too late, too late
Too late Marlene
Too late, too late
Too late Marlene
Too late, too late
Too late Marlene
Too late, too late
Too late Marlene
Too late, too late
Too late Marlene... |
Here she comes you better watch your step
Shes going to break your heart in two
Its true its not hard to realize
Just look into her false coloured eyes
Shell build you up just to put you down
What a clown
Cause everybody knows...
The things she does to please
Sees just a little tease
See the way she walks, hear the way she talks
Youre written in her book
Youre number 37 take a look
Shes going to smile to make you frown, what a clown
Little boy shes from the street
Before you start yourre already beat
Shes going to play you for a fool
Yes its true
Cause everybody knows...
Things she does to please
Sees just a little tease
See the way she walks, hear the way she talks
Yeah, I see that girl. So man, I know
Where youre coming from...
Shes all lips, and eyes, and legs
And then, just wait, yknow what?
Shes gonna mess you up, pal
She will try to bring you down
The hardest girl around
Cause everybody knows...
The things she does to please
Sees just a little tease
And everybody knows, she, she, she...
Shes a femme fatale
Shes a femme fatale
Shes a femme fatale
Shes a femme fatale
Shes a femme fatale
Shes a femme fatale
Shes a femme fatale
Shes a femme fatale
Shes a femme fatale |
Shackled and raised for a shining crowd
They want you to speak but the music is louder than
All of their roar with the heat of the planets core-but
The shadows are on your side
As soon as the lights go down
In the darkest place you can find
You belong to the hands of the night
Promises made with a distant friend
Truth should be known it can only bend
To a tune of its own
Hey youll never hear that voice again
Scandal in white on a tangled vine
With everybody to say that youre having the
Time of your life when your life is on the slide-but
Spinning a compass to choose your way
You can run you can dive you can stand and you can soar
Whichever way you can be sure-that
Shadows on your side
The shadows are on your side |
Do you believe in love?
Do you believe in shame?
And if love can conquer all
Then why do we only feel the pain?
I heard you speak my name
Heard you singing The Stones
Maybe heard you laughing in a line of static
On my telephone
So why your eyelids are closed
Inside a case of rust
And did you have to change
All your poets fire into frozen dust?
I try to justify it
To learn from your mistake
But wheres the stupid lie that has to make its point
With such a pointless waste?
Come out
Do you believe in shame?
Do you believe in love?
And if they taste the same
Would you love again or abandon both?
I dont think I ever can
Believe my friend has gone
Keep saying its alright, Im going to bring you back
But I know Im wrong
Theres nothing I can say
Theres nothing left to do
Just that lately I feel so damn lonely
When I think of you
And it may seem selfish now
But Ill hold on to the memory
Until all this fear is washed away
Do you believe in love?
Do you believe in life?
Cause I believe a little part of you inside of me
Will never die
Cause I believe a little part of you inside of me
Will never die
Yes, I believe a little part of you inside of me
Will never die
Yes, I believe a little part of you inside of me
Will never die |
Dark in the city and the night is a wire
Steam in the subway and the earth is afire
Do dodo do dodo do dodo do dodo do do do
Woman you want me, can you give me a sign?
And catch my breathing even closer behind
Do dodo do dodo do dodo do dodo do do do
In touch with the ground
Im on the hunt, Im after you
I smell like I sound, Im lost in a crowd
And Im hungry like the wolf
Straddle the line in discord and rhyme
Im on the hunt, Im after you
My mouth is alive with juices like wine
And Im hungry like the wolf
Stalked in the forest and too close to hide
Ill be upon you by the moonlight side
Do dodo do dodo do dodo do dodo do do do
High-blood drumming on your skin its so tight
You feel my heat Im just a moment behind
Do dodo do dodo do dodo do dodo do do do
In touch with the ground
Im on the hunt, Im after you
A scent and a sound, Im lost and Im found
And Im hungry like the wolf
Strut on a line, its discord and rhyme
Im on the hunt, Im after you
My mouth is alive, all running inside
And Im hungry like the wolf
Burning the ground, I break from the crowd
Im on the hunt, Im after you
I smell like I sound, Im lost and Im found
And Im hungry like the wolf
Strut on a line, its discord and rhyme
Im on the hunt, Im after you
My mouth is alive with juices like wine
And Im hungry like the wolf |
Now, if you will, gentlmen, lets, lets put it, the song into perspective, just so you guys can understand where Im coming from when I sings this. Its that the, the, the, the woman is, is the hunted, the animal, and when I catch her, being the predator, the hunter, Im gonna kill her. Maybe not kill her, but, you know. You know what I mean, you silly guys, little bit of hot nookie, yeah? Little bit of pinch and squeal? Whatever, you know, however it goes. Were animals, right? Were outta control. Were fierce, animals, crazy, rrr. Thats what Im sayin. Lets do this song
Dark in the city and the night is a wire
Steam in the subway and the earth is afire, oh yeah
Woman, you want me, so give me a sign
Other way, Im just a moment behind, oh yeah
Now, in touch with the ground
Im on a hunt, Im after you
Smell like a sound, Im lost and Im found
And Im hungry like the wolf
Straddle the line in discord and rhyme
I howl and I whine, Im after you
My mouth is alive with juices like wine
And Im hungry like the wolf
Dark in the forest, and its too close to hide
Ill be upon you on the moonlight side, oh yeah
High blood drumming on your skin, its so tight
You feel my heat, Im just a moment behind, oh yeah, alright now
In touch with the ground
Im on a hunt, Im after you
Smell like a sound, Im lost in a crowd
And Im hungry like the wolf
I straddle the line, its discord and rhyme
I howl and I whine, Im after you
My mouth is alive and running inside
And Im hungry like the wolf
Hungry like the wolf
Like the wolf
Hungry like the wolf
In touch with the ground
Im on a hunt, Im after you
Smell like a sound, Im lost and Im found
And Im hungry like the wolf
Straddle the line, its discord and rhyme
I howl and I whine, Im after you
My mouth is alive with juices like wine
And Im hungry like the wolf
Smell like a sound, in touch with the ground
Im on the hunt, Im after you
Smell like a sound, Im lost in a crowd
And Im hungry like the wolf
Straddle the line, its discord and rhyme
I howl and I whine, Im after you
My mouth is alive and running inside
And Im hungry like the wolf
Im hungry like the wolf
Oh yeah, Im hungry, hungry like the wolf
Im hungry, baby
Like the wolf, baby, like the wolf
Was that too much?
I never know |
Dark in the city, night is a wire
Steam in the subway, Earth is afire
Woman you want me give me a sign
And catch my breathing even closer behind
In touch with the ground
Im on the hunt, Im after you
I smell like I sound, Im lost in a crowd
And Im hungry like the wolf
I straddle the line in discord and rhyme
Im on the hunt, Im after you
Mouth is alive with juices like wine
And Im hungry like the wolf
Stalked in the forest, too close to hide
Ill be upon you by the moonlight side
High blood drumming on your skin, its so tight
You feel my heat, Im just a moment behind
In touch with the ground
Im on the hunt, Im after you
I smell like I sound, Im lost in a crowd
And Im hungry like the wolf
Yeah, Im hungry like the wolf
Oh
Im hungry, Im hungry, hey
Like the wolf
Like the wolf
Im hungry like the wolf |
Now while the beat is slow
Here in your arms I sway
Now that the light is low
Something I want to say
I guess youve known it for a while
But I mean trouble
I only want to see you smile
And I burst this bubble
The hardest thing is to let go
When love is real
Like a flower loves a bee
But I know youre meant to give yourself
To someone else, Not me
And I could carry on with you
Does that sound crazy?
I think you feel the same way too
And you cant face it
The hardest thing is to let go
But its not defeat
When you set somebody free
Can you let go?
Because thats love thats real
Like a flower loves a bee
Somebody else not me
Meant for somebody else not me
Somebody else not me |
Only in dreams girl am I part of your world
My heart it screams or so it seems
Only in dreams
Only in my - in my dreams - only in my dreams
Only in my - in my dreams - only in my dreams
Only in dreams girl where my crime goes unheard
What does it mean to fly the scene?
Only in dreams girl
Theres a vampire in the limousine
Suns going down like a symphony
She keeps a guard up while her nails are wet
I dont want to wake up
Only in dreams Im in dopamine time
Its in my genes, it gets extreme
Only in dreams
How did I dream you?
Youre the queen of steel dunes
Look what youve done - my colors run
When ever you come to
Theres a vampire in the limousine
Suns going down like a symphony
She keeps a guard up while her nails are wet
I dont want to wake up
Only in my - in my dreams - only in my dreams
Theres a vampire in the limousine
Suns going down like a symphony
She keeps a guard up while her nails are wet
I dont want to wake up
On the rooftop we can feel the drop
She bathes in the moon while the shadows watch
I should be nervous but my eyes forget
I dont want to wake up
Im not gonna wake up
I dont want to wake up
Only in my - in my dreams - only in my dreams
Dont want to wake up
Only in my - in my dreams - only in my dreams
Dont want to wake up

Oohh, Do-do do-do-do
Da da da da da
Things that you used to say now take on different meanings you realise
Cant be too careful about the lines
Come on you know youre not so young you cannot hide behind disguise
Listen to your own desire
Eyes like an angel - so wise, dont lie
You never felt like this before
Fly like an angel - so high this time
You send your senses streaming free
Places you used to go when you were young look different in the dark
Dont you worry its O.K
And maybe I can help you find your way tonight I think you will agree
Summer reasons run away
Eyes like an angel - so wise, dont lie
You never felt like this before
Fly like an angel - so high this time
Youve got your senses streaming free
Oh I hear your heart beating even faster now than mine
Now you know just what I mean
So take your place among those twilight gleaming rivers that you read
Give me reasons to believe
Eyes like an angel - so wise dont lie
You never feel like this again
Fly like an angel - so high this time
You send my senses streaming free
Like an angel... da da da-da
Like an angel... da da daa |
Oh when your nine day feed is up and youve drained your loving cup
Come stands reeling to the shore oh when the brave are coming out
The dry fight and the dusty shout see you crawling on the floor
And diamond stars shining glitter bright gorging your sanhedralites
Words are falling to the floor glad stand pouring fruit trees
And now they glisten on the waterline sing home you are at the shore
Im moving crissie pretty flowers in the shuttermaze
Haul up all your petty desires leave them lying down they fall
Wash away the rusty disease of your brown town days in our silver sea
Leave it dying at the door feather yellow your time to leave
Open out your arms and breathe
Oh oh oh oh, oh oh oh oh, oh oh oh oh to the shore now
Oh oh oh oh, oh oh oh oh, oh oh oh oh to the shore now come on |
Here we stand
In the shadow of the master plan
Making trouble wherever we can
Stir it up, stir it up, stir it up
Cant you see this boy is going cheap -
Knockdown to a basement deal
But I really wont stop til I get to the top
Take it from me, Im waiting here on my knees
And I love the way you tease me
such a wonderful person
Dont play rough -
Its easy when you know your stuff
Say please and sure enough, so kind
Im making love to the ultimate mind
Come on, take a look, put it to me, baby
You could feel a love come tumbling down
I just want to wrap myself in you baby
We could tell the world were fooling around
Ultimately, Id say shes toying with me
Its a case of wait and see
But right now Im gonna keep my pants on
A to Zed, shes doing it to my head
We dont need to go to bed, youll find
To make love to the ultimate mind
Put it to me, baby
Wanna wrap myself in you, baby
Talk me round
Lets do it right here and now
I dont want you cooling down
Turn it up, turn it up, turn it up, turn it up
We could fit realitys two-way split personality
Lifes a bitch, but Im fine
Making love to the ultimate mind
Heavens bent, were completely innocent
We all got to pay the rent
And in time we learn to compromise
Talking tall, but I feel invisible
Can you see me after all that I said
Theres only one thing for it
Take a look, put it to me, baby
You could feel a love come tumbling down
I just want to wrap myself in you baby
We can tell the world were fooling around
Come on, take a look, put it to me, baby
You could be a love come tumbling down
I just want to wrap myself in you baby
We could tell the world were fooling around
Come on, take a look
Im making love to the ultimate mind
Ultimate mind
Ultimate mind... |
Now the time has come , the music between us
Though the night seems young - is at an end
Only change will bring you out of the darkness
In this moment everything is born again
Reach up for the sunrise
Put your hands into the big sky
You can touch the sunrise
Feel the new day enter your life
Reach up for the sunrise
Put your hands into the big sky
You can touch the sunrise
Feel the new day enter your life
Now the fireball burns , we go round together
As the planet turns into the light
Something more than dreams to
Watch out for each other?
Because we know what it means to be alive
Reach up for the sunrise
Put your hands into the big sky
You can touch the sunrise
Feel the new day enter your life
Reach up for the sunrise
Put your hands into the big sky
You can touch the sunrise
Feel the new day enter your life
Feel the new day enter your life
Feel the new day
Reach up for the sunrise
Put your hands into the big sky
You can touch the sunrise
Feel the new day enter your life
Reach up...
Reach up for the sunrise
Put your hands into the big sky
You can touch the sunrise
Feel the new day enter your life
Reach up for the sunrise
Put your hands into the big sky
You can touch the sunrise
Feel the new day enter your life |
If the sun refused to shine
I would still be loving you
When mountains crumble to the sea
There will still be you and me
Kind woman, I give you my all
Kind woman, nothing more
Little drops of rain whisper of the pain
Tears of loves lost in the days gone by
My love is strong
With you there is no wrong
Together we shall go until we die
My, my, my
Inspiration is what you are to me
Inspiration, look to see
And so today, my world it smiles
Your hand in mine, we walk the miles
Thanks to you it will be done
For you to me are the only one
Happiness, no longer sad
Happiness....Im glad |
Why did you let me run
When you knew Id fall for the gaping hole
Where your heart should be
Liar-couldnt cut me deeper with a knife if you tried
Just take a look
At your victim
Arise
Clouds on you shoulder
Arent they grazed by the afterglow
How quiet they gather
When the storm is about to blow
No dont look away
Caught in the crossfire
And it aint no wind of change
Im talking of crime and passions rage
Summer of madness or the undertow
Dragged me up an alley for the blossoming fire
On a strangers smile
Bride of wire-how disguise so easily cracked
Saw your heart turn spade
This orchids turned to black
Graze on your shoulder
Like the clouds in the afterglow
How quiet they gather
When the storm is about to blow
Way down by the shoulder
In the haze of the afterglow
Stranded together
And the storm is about to blow |
She lays on the wall
Watching the strangers drift away
Mid-days ore--thick
With the sun of arabia
She surrenders her voices
They gather, on the wind
Talkin, chanting, breathing
Into her body...Yesterday
Awakened beside
The scent of burnt sugar--on the skin
Painting eyes
With the color she brings in
Oh, and sure and strong
When the lightning tumbles down
Dont you frown
Everything will be
In time for this evening
If theres secrets
She has to be pardoned to
Every one of them
If theres heaven
She gets to the heart
And youll wonder...
Why she says
When I run out of blue
Help me rise instead
Now I can run to you
Why she says
When I run out of blue
Give me rain instead
Now let me run...
If theres secrets
She has to be pardoned to
Every one of them
If theres heaven
She gets to the heart
And youll know...
Why she says
When I run out of blue
Help me rise instead
Now I can run to you
Why she says
When I run out of blue
Give me rain instead
Now let me run...
Hey-hey....
Why she says
When I run out of blue
Help me rise instead
Now I can run to you
Why she says
When I run out of blue
Give me rain instead
Now I can run to you
Why she says
When I run out of blue
Help me rise instead
Now I can run to you
Why she says
When I run out of blue
Give me rain instead
Now I can run to you |
Coat check girl up in happyland
Has a violent row with a cuban man
Julio leaves in a drunken rage
Comes back with the gasoline
The club has no fire exit
The club had no door
Only five people came out alive
The sin is that 89 died
89 dead
89 dead
89 dead
89 dead
The sin is that a year and a half
Before the fire chiefs out
And hes raising cain brands
Happyland hazzard close down but no
No-one ever paid him no mind
City living heavy trouble
City living rough
We are given angry heart
But angers not enough
Daily news reviews of the landlords life
Found six thousand code violations light
The city has more a hundred thousand wars
All for one of forbes four hundred whores
Just one fire cracker on a big bonfire
Of self serving penny pinching wiseguy style
Never allowing for the human condition
The sin is that these guys survive
City living heavy trouble
City living rough
We are given angry heart
But angers not enough... Rpt
Youre using your people up
Stop killing your people now
Stop wasting your people now
Sin of the city |
By the look on your face youve been awake all night
It started raining in the early light
Youre fooling the mirror but you dont fool me
Adrift in your own sympathy
Cant stand falling apart, dont stay too long in the dark
Alone deep in the dark of your devotion
Let go the love that he stole, let go ygot to let go
To get back in control of your emotion
You can make it through tomorrow
Set free your butterfly girl
And when you rise above the sorrow
Youll be a butterfly girl
Now youre drunk in the dream of your life as dirt
It might last forever, and that really hurts
And I still hope youre gonna realize
Theres only one kind of happy in that glass of wine
Cant stand falling apart, dont stay too long in the dark
Alone deep in the dark of your devotion
Let go the love that he stole, let go ygot to let go
To get back in control of your emotion
Thats you falling apart, for so long in the dark
So long deep in the heart of your devotion
Let go the love that he stole, let go ygot to let go
To get back in control of your emotion
You can make it through tomorrow
Set free your butterfly girl
And when you rise above the sorrow
Youll be a butterfly girl
You can fly, yeah, yeah
Set free your butterfly girl
Youll go high, yeah, yeah
Youll be a butterfly girl
Set free your butterfly girl
Set free your butterfly girl |
Down here with the strays and the damaged
All stood in a line
This recovery so they tell me is one day at a time
And you think you can help me maybe
You can turn on your heels and save me
But I dont want to be like the boys that you keep in tow
Like your valentine stones, stones, stones
Your valentine stones
All roads lead from my resurrection to your sympathy
An empty spaces which spoils your collection
That was meant for me
And you say you can help me maybe
You can turn on your charms to save me
But I dont want to be just a toy that you keep at home
Like your valentine stones, stones, stones
Your valentine stones
Lost souls diamonds and gold
Gone cold valentine stones
Lost souls diamonds and gold
Grown cold valentine stones
And you think you can help me maybe
You can turn on your heels and save me
But I dont want to be like the boys that you keep in tow
Like your valentine stones
- souls diamonds and gold
Gone cold valentine stones
Lost souls diamonds and gold
Grown cold valentine stones
Oh, oh, oh diamonds and gold
Oh, oh, oh valentine stones |
So halfway drunk
Youd never fail
With your big eye punk
Fashion fingernails
Something cooking
When you play guitar
What a stake were in
How did we get so far?
Whatever happens, were okay
Hey, were still alive
To watch a sunset garage day
Head into the light
Oh, oh with that all goes wrong
Were gonna make it on our own
I promise us a garage day, oh
See how the town comes out
Like a bruise
When the wheels go round
We can do anything
Nobody looking
And then 6 more come
Maybe later, later
Could take it up from here
Whatever happens, were okay
Hey, were still alive
To watch a sunset garage day
Head into the light
Oh, oh with that all goes wrong
Were gonna make it on our own
Oh, oh, if they bring us down
Were gonna break out of this town
Into a sunset garage day, oh
Yesterday looks so taint, so far away
Dumbest point of desseray
Waiting for a sun burn into rain
Its so fine, about the high water life
Shifting with the paradise
Drifting as the drain move into flame
Oh, oh with that all goes wrong
Were gonna make it on our own
Oh, oh, if it all goes wrong
Were gonna make it on our own
Its a sunset garage day, oh yeah!
Its a sunset garage day, oh yeah, yeah
Its a sunset garage day, yeah, yeah, yeah |
Just a Perfect Day
Drank Sangria in the Park
And Later, when it gets dark
We go Home
Just A Perfect Day
Feed Animals in the Zoo
And Later, a movie too
And then Home
Its Such a Perfect Day
Im Glad I spent it with you
Such a Perfect Day
You Just keep me hanging on
Just a Perfect Day
Problems all Left Alone
Weekenders on our own
Such Fun
Just a Perfect Day
You made me forget myself
I thought I was someone else
Someone new
Youre gonna reap just what you sow |
Yeah, this time
Shall we walk?
Shall we run through my head, you understand?
Does the body you conceal
Need the touch of someones hand?
Ashes, violations
Who would they burn for?
In your isolation what cant you see?
I wonder if the lights down
I wonder if theyre listening
Hold me
Lay your shame away
Show me where your lovers stay
Hold me
Lay your ghost away
Show me for yourself
You are lost and alone
But a prisoner of your pride
When the passions you ignore
You can never hide
One of these days youre gonna find out
Cause one of these days youre gonna try
And what did i say
To make you wind up
With this spear of guilt inside
I wonder if the lights down
I wonder if theyre listening
Hold me
Lay your shame away
Show me where your lovers stay
Hold me
Lay your ghost away
Show me for yourself
Na na na na na na na
Na na na na na na na
Na na na na na na na
Na na na na na na na
Hold me
Na na na na na na
Show me
Na na na na na na na na na na
Hold me
Lay your shame away
Show me where your lovers stay
Hold me
Lay your ghost away
Show me for yourself! |
Once I thought that I was in control
But that was just another trick of fate
Playing with my life
There have been some times
I was so tied up
And I said to myself
Gotta break it all
But didnt really try
Two hearts beating in this place youve made
You know nothing changes my Antarctica
You can make your rhymes
And paint your rules
In black and white
For me to memorize
But never understand
And there will be time
For a thousand vows
Oh a thousand promises
We forgot
To be realized
Well keep the rhythm going
And well remember
Well keep the laughter flowing
And well remember
We let the music jangle
And well remember
And you
Will stay here
With me |
The taxmans in the pocketbook
The pressmen are by the bar
And all the world is at your door
Its strange that you should lock it up
And preach an open heart
But you know what theyre waiting for
You can turn your face away now
And dont think twice
Im just the ordinary guy you used to know
Im not after your money
Or even your advice
I believe youll follow me
Its all I need to know
-
I was tempted by the devil in this deep blue swimming pool
Until the devils makeup ran..
And my futures in the strangle hold of ever changing rules
I dont intend to understand
You can stop pretending now that I had you fooled
Im still the ordinary guy you used to know
Im not after your money
To paralyze my soul
I believe youll follow me
Its all I need to know
Promise me youll try to understand before I go
-
You can turn your face away now
And dont think twice
Im just the ordinary guy you used to know
Im not after your money
Or even your advice
I believe youll follow me
Its all I need to know
Promise me youll try to understand before I go
All I need to, all I need to, all I need to know
All I need to, all I need to, all I need to know
All I need to, all I need to, all I need to know
All I need to, all I need to, all I need to know
All I need to, all I need to, all I need to know
All I need to, all I need to, all I need to know
All I need to, all I need to, all I need to know |
So come the evening
Im out on the dunes
Looking for a token
Something to prove
All I remember
Is more than a flame
In my fantasy fire
Whatever Ive done to receive
Whatever I need to redeem
Whatever you say
Even if I wait a lifetime
I know, I swear, if you leave a light on, if you leave a light on
For me
Ill come there
You can leave a light on for me
In comes the morning
Im stood in my track
Looking at the reasons
For me to head back
So unexpected
The kindness youve shown
That I will not forget it
You breathe the will into the weak
And coax the cage bird to fly free
You ease the lost cause out of me
With your sweet hand to bring me home
Im not alone |
Its all up to you now find yourself in the moment
Go directly to the voodoo now the channel is open
Lose your head lose control
You come on delicate and fine like a diamond in the mind
Woah, yeah, when you move into the light youre the greatest thing alive
Woah... and you
Sway in the moon the way you did when you were younger
And we told everybody all you need is now
Stay with the music let it play a little longer
You dont need anybody all you need is now
Everybodys gunning for the VIP section
But youre better up and running in another direction
With your bones in the thrall
Throw a shadow on the vine, bat your lashes let it shine
Woah, yeah, every moment that arrives youre the greatest thing alive
Woah... and you
Sway in the moon the way you did when you were younger
And we told everybody all you need is now
STAY with the music let it play a little longer
You dont need anybody all you need is now
All you need, all you need is now
All you need, all you need is now
All you need, all you need is now
And we will
Sway in the moon the way we did when we were younger
When we told everybody all you need is now
Stay with the music let it play a little longer
You dont need anybody all you need is now
All you need, all you need is now
All you need, all you need is now
All you need, all you need is now
All you need, all you need is now |
Yeah, mmmm
Teah
Yeah
Mmmm
Yeah
Mmmm
Miss November Tuesday
Bend your rubber rules
Take your time but dont take
Off your high heeled shoes
Shes in demand at dinner time
Shes on the factory wall
And when the gentlemen retire
Guess whos in control?
She blew your money
On taking a cruise
If that isnt funny
Well, watch out teacher
Ooh, ooh
When the chambers empty
She said: Ooh, ooh
Meet El Presidente
Dressed in flimsy clothing
Use your lipstick line
To colour fear and loathing
With a pink disguise
Youve never refused when she lies back
Put a stripe on the union and a star on the jack
Shes on the case at dinner time
Shes on the evening news
And if you dare step out of line
Youre going to be abused
You may not like it
You may not be scared
But hell has no fury like a
Young girls Ego
Ooh, ooh
When the chambers empty
She said: Ooh, ooh
Meet El Presidente
Ooh, ooh
Doo, doo, doo
Ooh, ooh
Doo, doo, doo
Ooh, ooh
Doo, doo, doo
You might adopt an attitude
Look on the moral side
But if police are after you
Wheres the best place to hide?
For this production
They gave her a gun
Aint no director
So watch out actors!
Ooh, ooh
When the chambers empty
She said: Ooh, ooh
Meet El Presidente
Ooh, ooh
When the chambers empty
She said: Ooh, ooh
Meet El Presidente
Ooh, ooh
Meet El Presidente
Ooh, ooh
Meet El Presidente
Ooh, ooh... |
Lay lady lay
Lay across my big brass bed
Whatever colors you have in your mind
I show them to you and you see them shine
Chorus]
Lay lady lay
Lay across my big brass bed
Stay lady stay
Stay with your man a while
Until the break of day
Let me see you make him smile
His clothes are dirty but his
His hands are clean
And you are the best thing
That hes ever seen
Stay lady stay
Stay with your man a while
Why wait any longer for the world to begin
You can have your cake and eat it, too
Why wait any longer for the one you love
When hes standing in front of you
Lay lady lay
Lay across my big brass bed
Stay lady stay
Stay while the night is still ahead
I long to see you in the morning light
I long to reach for you in the night
Stay lady stay
Stay while the night is still ahead
Lay lady lay
Stay |
Midnight I think Im going to make it
Feel the magical lash of the roll
And the crash in their lives
Headline in tomorrows papers
Kill that light its so bright
And youre shining it right in my eyes
Show me your secret and tell me your name
Catch me with your fizzy smile
Try to remember again and again
What it is that I recognize
Dont ask me now
When I need you I dont know how
To believe in your advice
Just this once I take the dice
Midnight so whats the point of faking
For a kiss or a whisper
You pull out a desperate prize
Hold tight onto Daddys bracelet
Make them pay for their chances
With money they dont think thats nice |
Pushing through the market square
So many mothers sighing
News had just come over
We had five years left to cry in
News guy wept and told us
Earth was really dying
Cried so much his face was wet
Then I knew he wasnt lying
I heard telephones, opera house
Favourite melodies
I saw boys, toys, electric irons
And TVs
My brain hurt like a warehouse
It had no room to spare
I had to cram so many things
To store everything in there
All the fat, skinny peoplе
And all the tall, short people
And all thе nobody people
And all the somebody people
I never thought Id need so many people
A girl my age went off her head
Hit some tiny children
And if the black guy hadnt have pulled her off
I sware she would have killed them
A soldier with a broken arm
Fixed his stare to the wheels of a Cadillac
A cop knelt and kissed the feet of a priest
While the Queen threw up at the sight of that
I think I saw you in an ice-cream parlour
Drinking milk-shakes cold and long
Smiling-and-waving-and looking so fine
I dont think you knew you were in this song
And it was cold and it rained
So I felt like an actor
And I thought of Ma
And I wanted to get back there
Your face, your race
The way that you talk
I kiss you, youre beautiful
I want you to walk
Five years

Thats all weve got
Weve got five years
Stuck on my eye
Five years
What a surprise
Weve got five years
My brain hurts a lot

Thats all weve got
Weve got five years
What a surprise
Five years
Stuck on my eyes
Five years
My brain hurts a lot

Thats all weve got
Weve got five years
Stuck on my eyes

What a surprise!

Across the sky
A jet trail following
The wish that I was on the plane
On my way to some out destination
Undiscovered never mentioned
Sipping on the high of expectation
I awaken to the shade
Maybe its the rained out town
One you wanted to leave behind
When the winters on the ground
If you ever wonder
We believe in the cold grey lights we dream
Theres a place for us
Mediterranea
Yes we believe where the white sands touch the sea
Theres space for us
Mediterranea
Im trading in for touch down ecstasy
Arriving there in a wave of heat
Lying in the beach tequila mayhem
Summer of all suburbian daydreams
Waiting for a look the invitation
I awaken to the shade
I imagine
Summer fashion, see yourself in another town
Let the sunshine out of your mind
A bed of light to lay you down
And we believe
Yes we believe
Theres a place for us
Mediterranea |
I came over your place today
In a roundabout sort of way
Nothing holding me
Just the company
Gentle giving the afternoon
Dont ever try to be any more
Michael, youve got a lot to answer for
You unlocked some of the doors to my soul
And I dont see you for a while
Thinkin of you will make me smile
You never bother me with responsibility
Misbehaving in candlelight
Dont ever try to give any more
Michael, youve got a lot to answer for
You got me waking up wise to the world
Trust you to get caught up in somebodys war
Youll come out of it all in time, Im sure
Just remember what friends were put here for
Michael, youve got a lot to answer for
And I know that youre going to call
If you need me
When you need me
If you need me |
Hey guys, turn it up to get sleazy
Twist it in a vice
Nobody said it was easy
Just use your naked eyes, oh
How to see and how to hide it
How to save it
Well, maybe, maybe, maybe
You can take it and eat it, and chew your life supply
Wheres the real life in your illusion?
On the dark side your powers in confusion
Do the dance, do the demolition
And lose the chance to hear when you dont listen
Dont you feel edgy?
Bite your lips and bleed
Conversation is empty
Abandoned in the freeze
Freedom is your condemnation
Free to say: Well, maybe
Maybe. maybe. maybe
You can take it or leave it
Just need a little hit tonight
Wheres the real life in your illusion?
On the dark side your powers in confusion
Do the dance, do the demolition
And lose the chance to hear when you dont listen
Maybe, maybe, maybe you can try to believe it
Just need a little help tonight
Wheres the real life in your illusion?
On the dark side your powers in confusion
Do the dance, do the demolition
And lose the chance to hear when you dont listen
Wheres the real life in your illusion?
On the dark side your powers in confusion
Do the dance, do the demolition
And lose the chance to hear when you dont listen
Hear it when you listen
You dont hear when you dont listen
Hear it when you listen
You dont hear when you dont listen... |
Hes sinking faster than a drowning man
Hell grab a hold of anyone he can
Gun in his pocket and a heart of ham
Uncle Sam
Hes dying faster than a rabid dog
Infect us all now hes losing blood
Nose for trouble and a soul of rock
Smokeys man
Dont drag me down
I dont wanna drown
Youre going down
Na nana na nana nana na na
Theres not much flesh
Just skin and bone
Cheeks sunk deep
Eyes popping wide
Dont put out a hand to help him
This drowning man will bite it right off
Right off
Right off

dataset = load_dataset("huggingartists/duran-duran")
Dataset Structure
An example of 'train' looks as follows.
This example was too long and was cropped:
{
"text": "Look, I was gonna go easy on you\nNot to hurt your feelings\nBut I'm only going to get this one chance\nSomething's wrong, I can feel it..."
}
Data Fields
The data fields are the same among all splits.

Data Splits
| train | validation | test |
|---|---|---|
| 360 | - | - |
'Train' can be easily divided into 'train' & 'validation' & 'test' with few lines of code:
from datasets import load_dataset, Dataset, DatasetDict
import numpy as np
datasets = load_dataset("huggingartists/duran-duran")
train_percentage = 0.9
validation_percentage = 0.07
test_percentage = 0.03
train, validation, test = np.split(datasets['train']['text'], [int(len(datasets['train']['text'])*train_percentage), int(len(datasets['train']['text'])*(train_percentage + validation_percentage))])
datasets = DatasetDict(
{
'train': Dataset.from_dict({'text': list(train)}),
'validation': Dataset.from_dict({'text': list(validation)}),
'test': Dataset.from_dict({'text': list(test)})
}
)
