So it’s Friday night, my favorite time
And thinking back when you were mine
Another time I sang “You’re mine”
This paradigm is changing all the time
The smell of the trees on nights like this
On the streets where we lived means more to me
Walking past the house and I
I think about your face and I
Wonder what you’re thinking I
Know I miss the time we try?
Racing down the road and I
Face the truth again and I
Wonder where you are ‘cause I
I know it’s you who change the tide
So it’s Friday night, ten past nine
Now it’s time go out for a good time
Another time I sang “You’re mine”
This paradigm is changing all the time
The smell of the trees on nights like this
On the streets where we lived means more to me
The lights on the street, the words in a days
The sound of your feet means more to me
I
I
I
I wonder where you are ‘cause I
Know it’s you who change the tide
It’s changing all the time
So it’s Friday night
Go out for a good time

I Lost A Friend
Walking down the hill
To find the last time I saw you
Trying everywhere
I thought that somewhere I'd find you
The world is turning
Concerned that I won't find
I lost a friend
I left him somewhere 'round here
He's losing faces in streets and in the memories
Of something good
And people say I won the game
But something brings me back here
I'll never see him again except a memory
Of someone good
Calling distant friends
Their numbers disconnected
Walking every street
The bars you once frequented
I've searched the phone book
There's nowhere left to look
And hope that you'd be there
I lost a friend
I left him somewhere 'round here
He's losing faces in streets and in the memories
Of something good
And in the end I won the game
But something brings me back here
I'll never see him again except a memory
Of someone good
I'll never see him again except a memory
Of someone good |

I Will Be Your Girlfriend
I'm the gum on your shoes
The prostitute who rings your family
I'll take your breath away
You crossed my path and you'll pay
And all your friends will laugh
I'm a person with a plan for you
I'm a person who will wreck your confidence
I will be your namesake
I will be your headache
I will be your wit's end
I will be your girlfriend
I'm the knee in your groin
And look around you, no-one's noticed
It's true
I'm a person with a plan for you
I'm a person who will wreck your confidence
I'm the gum on your shoe
I'm the knee in your groin
I'm the fly in your soup
I have the fruit of your loins
Somehow I'll complicate your life
and now you'll have to tell your wife
I'm a person with a plan for you
I'm a person who will wreck your confidence
I will be your girlfriend
I will be your girlfriend
I will be your girlfriend
I will be your girlfriend |

If It Isn't You
If it isn't you
If it isn't you
If it isn't you who?
If it isn't you
If it isn't you
If it isn't you who?
And our room is very small
Even though we've moved around at
Home by three in time to call
Hoping doesn't stop me thinking
'Cause if it isn't you
If it isn't you
If it isn't you who?
If it isn't you
If it isn't you
If it isn't you who?
And our room is very small
Even though we've moved around and
If it isn't you
If it isn't you
If it isn't you who? |

I’m Conscious Of Myself
I’m conscious of myself
Of my health when I’m visiting friends
I’m conscious of myself
Of my wealth when I’ve nothing to spend
I’m conscious of myself
When I’m sad and I’ve nothing to say
I’m conscious of myself
Feel bad in the juvenile way
I’m conscious of myself
Any weight eating food that I like
I’m conscious of myself
Feeling hate for the models childlike
I’m conscious of myself
Growing old, growing baggage to loathe
I’m conscious of myself
Getting cold lust and love I could prove
So I take vit pills
Contraception gym calls
Visits to health clubs
No more nights in boys’ bogs
Counseling cocaine
Did the party bookings
Don’t you just love my arse
I’m conscious of myself
On the shelf, got no man in my life
I’m conscious of myself
Shake yourself, I’m your fantasy wife
I’m conscious of myself
Bad breath, it’s garlic today
I’m conscious of myself
Merry death with the passing of the days
I’m conscious of myself
Near you, you're confident and strong
I’m conscious of myself
Me too but I got ……
I’m conscious of myself
In bed, do you like it this way?
I’m conscious of myself
Deadhead, knowing what you would say
So I take vit pills
Contraception gym calls
Visits to health clubs
No more nights in boys’ bogs
Counseling, cocaine
Did the party bookings
Don’t you just love my arse
So I want blue eyes
Breast enlargements, firm thighs
Chocolate milk shakes
No more diabetics
Sexual branding
Love and understanding
Don’t you just love my arse
I’m conscious of myself
I’m conscious of myself
I’m conscious of myself
I’m conscious of myself |

In My Defense
A man is talking to me
We're at my brother's party
I know what trust is - the key for us
But he's a charmer
And you are elsewhere
I take precautions
If little caution sometimes
His eyes are understanding
His words are gentle to me
He has a girlfriend at home, he says
It's not my background
To be unsound
It's wrong to have him
In my defense I say this
I love the things you show me
I love the way you hold me
I love the fact that you're not here tonight
So
I'll take the gamble
Because I'm able
And no I'm not proud
To hope that you won't find out
His hands are moving closer
My blushing cheeks are over
Everyone knows our names
In my defense, I'm human
In my defense, I'm stupid
And if for this I lose you
In my defense, I love you
In my defense, I love you

Inside
Break your stride when I'm walking
Steal your breath when I'm talking
Break your stride when I'm walking
Steal your breath when I'm talking
I have two eyes to see
I have two arms that help me feed
It doesn't stop me from loathing all I do
'Cause I'm taking taking taking taking
Break your stride when I'm walking
Steal your breath when I'm talking
Time she told me to try
You know I can't live with you inside
Haunt each day of my life
You know I can't live with you inside
And at night I'm just the same
Counting stars won't help me
Coping with my name
'Cause I'm taking taking taking taking
I don't laugh at the television even
Break your stride when I'm walking
Steal your breath when I'm talking
Take your thirst when I'm drinking
Numb your brain when I'm thinking |

It's Clear
Into the coloured field of view
My eyes are on the towline
Into another space and now
It's clear that I will soon be found
And this is the first time that it's made vague sense
So into the coloured field of view
My eyes are on the go line
Into another place and time
It's clear that I will soon be fine
And maybe somewhere I can see it through
So into the coloured field of view
My eyes are on the phone line
Into another space and now
It's clear that I will soon be found
This is the first time that it's made vague sense
Maybe this time I can see it through
So into the coloured field of view
My eyes are on the towline
Into another space and now
It's clear that I will soon be found
It's clear that I will soon be found
It's clear that I will soon be found |

It's Over
Search lights dim out
Inside my house
I've played this inning for quite a while
And guess what they ran me out
I've faced the ending
One message sent
It's over
Hardly been here
If this is all
It's over
And all this amounts
to my wasted chance
Friendship, food, rent and parents
Was all I meant
So no more talking
No more smiles
It's over
No more effort
No more lies
It's over |

Jerusalem
And did those feet in ancient time
Walk upon England's mountains green?
And was the holy Lamb of God
On England's pleasant pastures seen?
And did the Countenance Divine
Shine forth upon our clouded hills?
And was Jerusalem builded here
Among these dark Satanic mills?
Bring me my bow of burning gold
Bring me my arrows of desire
Bring me my spear, oh clouds unfold
Bring me my chariot of fire
I shall not cease from mental fight,
Nor shall my sword sleep in my hand
Till we have built Jerusalem
In England's green and pleasant land |

Just A Girl She Said
It's alright, I'm just a girl she said
Talk down to me and take me to bed
I don't think I don't feel and I don't really matter at all
Kiss me in darkness, turn out the light
Pretend you're with someone else tonight
You don't think you don't feel and I don't really understand why
I'm a person who speaks I'm a person who thinks
but you hope I'll forget as you ply me with drinks
And you cannot buy me and you cannot use me
but I know that you'll want to try...
It's alright, I'm just a girl she said
you can't buy me and take me to bed
'Cause I think 'cause I feel
And you don't really matter at all
Just a girl she said...
I know that you'll want to try |

La Boheme
Let me tell of a time
When the world was in rhyme
With the sound of our laughter
Montmartre shone above
For forbidden hours
Of hunger and of love
Unaware in our youth
Of the sobering truth
Of the years that came after
We laughed at other men
For we were heroes then
And heaven smiled above
La boheme, la boheme
Oh hungry you, oh hungry me
La boheme, la boheme
See the old world that could not see
All those innocent hearts
Who imagined their arts
Could be casually mastered
I miss them every one
For the sands of time have run away
For each and all
But it seems that our schemes
Were impossible dreams
That could never have lasted
For when we walked at last
The great parade had passed
And spring had lost its way
La boheme, la boheme
Someone to care, someone to mind
La boheme, la boheme
We were in love and love is blind
Now and then I return
And the memories burn
With a bittersweet aching
I climb the same old stairs
But no-one longer cares
And there's no-one left to great
In the streets where we walked
And the bars where we talked
Of a world we were making
I stand upon that hill
Until I drink my fill
And leave it all behind
La boheme, la boheme
Moments of joy, moments of pain
La boheme, la boheme
Nothing can bring them back again

Let Down
Old friend letting me down
When your lackluster tone says that you're not alone
Outside rain on the ground
Did you think I would wait when you're always so this late
My nerves are frayed
The chances I take
Would keep you both awake
Love songs, too many sung
And the hopeless design gives away when they’re mine
Fall then, fall now for me
With my sad lapp dog eyes and my diet of lies
Rest my head
Where you've shit the bed
The things I said were true
La la la la la la...
Old friend letting me down
When terminal gum is your mess making fun
Will you cry
Or tell more lies
They won't know what you've done |
|

Let's Go
I haven't sung in years and shown I've meant it
They'll play the tune and my gestures are empty
But my eyes are open
Every word is true
But then it's a big thing at the chemist together
You take my heart and describe it in letters
Every checkout girl can see us
Everyone knows our names
Take my hand
We're leaving now
Understand I need you, and
I've seen the world's impatient
Spent so much time deceiving and why?
I knowthe future's waiting
Spent so much time in hiding
Why?
No more waiting
Let's go |

Mercury
Do I fail you?
Do you scare yourself?
I know you’re not the same, yet
Neither am I
Guess the time, put out the flame
Now I don’t even know
The meaning of my name
How can it be over
When it hasn’t begun?
How can it be over?
It hasn’t begun
Free to come now
Be alone in the flesh
And I won’t think of you
You don’t want me to
I try to see myself
Should I step into the lake?
Free like mercury
The past we must forsake
I write this song for you
As a contract for the love
And what was true or not
Won’t compares to the ever
I try to hold my hand
Should I fall into the sea?
Free like mercury
If you I could be
Over
What hadn’t begun
How can it be over?
It hasn’t begun |

My Start In Wallsend
Sunday sunshine I know that sometimes
Friends can easily lose the way
Now in daylight no time for fights
We have to live another day
You're my best friend, my start in Wallsend
People round who know the score
For all the great things I've kept a space
For all the time I've spent with you
So take the bad things out of everything
I'll show you the way
I'll show you the way
I'll show you the way
I'll show you the way
Both our families, they know what I see
Know the plans that I believe
We'll drink to them for waiting them
For all the smiles that time will bring
'Cause we're the best kind, and now I know
I'll find the way to stay with you
So toast the great days, forget our sad ways
Laugh for all the things we do
And take the bad things out of everything
It all depends on if you'll see me
It all depends on if you'll speak to me... |
