See the girl in the cabriolet
I’m gonna make her mine someday
The traffic stops and she steps out
Every man starts to scream and shout
There’s a space in the week
It’s a date I can keep, oh yeah
Seven day, seven day, seven day
It’s a seven day weekend
Seven day, seven day, seven day
It’s a seven day weekend
See the girl in the pale peach dress
She’s got a body build to caress
Like a one-eyed cat
Outside a seafood store
She’s got me begging
More, more, more
I’ve been saving and saving
And saving my money
To spend it on her
* seven day, seven day, seven day
It’s a seven day weekend
Seven day (seven day)
Seven day (seven day) seven day
It’s a seven day weekend
Seven day (seven day)
Seven day (seven day) seven day
It’s a seven day weekend
(* repeat)
Seven day (saturday)
Seven day (every day) seven day
It’s a seven day weekend
Seven day (seven day)
Seven day (seven day) seven day
It’s a seven day weekend
Seven day (seven day)
Seven day (seven day) seven day
It’s a seven day weekend

So Hip It Hurts
Do you remember when men wore skirts? - so hip!
In kipper ties like jealous flirts - so hip!
In calico and in brocade shirts - so hip it hurts!
Do you remember when girls wore slacks? - so hip!
Traffic stops, men get heart attacks - so hip!
Seems so strange that they took it like that - so hip it hurts!
He’s so hip - so hip it...
She’s so hip - so hip it...
They’re so hip - so hip it hurts!
So hip it...
Whose the girl with the kinski eyes? - so hot!
They kind of face you could idolise - so what!
The kind of shape that gets advertised - so hip it hurts!
Once it was normal for a girl to curtsey
I’ll admit even though it hurts me
She’d squeeze informal until it screams for mercy
So hip it hurts!
He’s so hip - so hip it...
She’s so hip - so hip it...
They’re so hip - so hip it hurts!
So hip it hurts!
So hip it...
Afro-wigs on albino squares...
Polka-dots on alpaca flares...
Solar powered electric chairs...
So hip it hurts
In kipper ties like jealous flirts - so hip!
In calico and in brocade shirts - so hip it hurts!
Do you remember when girls wore slacks? - so hip!
Traffic stops, men get heart attacks - so hip!
Seems so strange that they took it like that - so hip it hurts!
He’s so hip - so hip it...
She’s so hip - so hip it...
They’re so hip - so hip it hurts!
So hip it...
Whose the girl with the kinski eyes? - so hot!
They kind of face you could idolise - so what!

The Greatest Love of All
Some men seek solace
Some take to drink
Some men find knowledge, yeah
At least that's what they think
Some take to violence
Streamlining their dreams
Some sit in silence
And learn what love can mean
Much further to go
Much further to crawl
But one day you'll find
The greatest love of all
The greatest love of all
The greatest love of all
The load is tough
The path is long
Strewn with rocks yeah
But you'd be wrong, so wrong
One single spark
Can start a prairie fire
When one man speaks truth
He fills the world with pure desire
Much further to go
Much further to crawl
But one day you'll find
The greatest love of all
The greatest love of all
The greatest love of all
One day united
One day free
You'll be rewarded
The one true path is unity
Fruit don't fall
Too far from the tree
One day we'll bathe
In true humility
Much further for truth
Much further to fall
I pray that you'll find
The greatest love of all
The greatest love of all
The greatest love of all
Some take to drink
Some men find knowledge, yeah
At least that's what they think
Some take to violence
Streamlining their dreams
Some sit in silence
And learn what love can mean
Much further to go
Much further to crawl
But one day you'll find
The greatest love of all
The greatest love of all
The greatest love of all
The load is tough
The path is long
Strewn with rocks yeah

One single spark
Can start a prairie fire
When one man speaks truth
He fills the world with pure desire
Much further to go

The greatest love of all
The greatest love of all
The greatest love of all
One day united
One day free
You'll be rewarded
The one true path is unity
Fruit don't fall
Too far from the tree
One day we'll bathe
In true humility
Much further for truth
Much further to fall
I pray that you'll find
The greatest love of all
The greatest love of all
The greatest love of all
Stranger Things
I would walk away from you
If that’s what you wanted
But when you look for something new
You can be so disappointed
* it’s funny how it used to be
Me for you and you for me
I wish I knew why people change
Suddenly
** will we ever be the same again
Stranger things have happened
Will we ever feel this way again
Whatever will be will be
We were learning to be human
But it doesn’t take a degree
To know that what you’re looking for
Is not always what you see
(* repeat)
(** repeat two times)
Eternally
Sha la, sha la la
Sha la, sha la la
Sha la, sha la la
If that’s what you wanted

Tears Are Not Enough
Tears for souvenirs
Tears are not enough
Tears for shields and spears
Tears are not enough
Searching for certainty
When it’s such an unstable world
Searching for something good
And I’m looking for the real mccoy
Blueprint: that says that boy meets girl
Picture: girl meets boy
A blueprint that says that the boy meets the girl
Picture in a magazine
_ chorus:
Yes you’ve shown your feelings
Yes you’ve shown you’re tough
Said things worth believing
Tears are not enough
Repeat chorus
Slam that door, slap my face
But I don’t love you anymore
Dry your eyes, sink or swim
You surmise you can’t win
We all make great mistakes
Blueprint: that says that boy meets girl
Picture: girl meets boy
A blueprint that says that the boy meets the girl
Picture in a magazine
_ chorus
Would I lie
Should I lie
Could I lie to you?
Excuses had their uses,
But now they’re all used up, all used up
Excuses had their uses,
But now they’re all used up, all used

Tears for souvenirs
Tears are not enough
Tears for shields and spears
Tears are nor enough

Why make the past your sacred cow?
I guess you’ve changed, you’ve changed and how
Yeah, yeah, yeah
Fruit’s grown rotten on the bough
Reap what you sow, with a counterfeit plough
Yeah, yeah, yeah
That was then but this is now
That was then but this is now
More sacrifices than an aztec priest
Standing here straining at that leash
All fall down
Can’t complain, musn’t grumble
Help yourself to another peace of apple crumble
And consequently:
Hearts of oak are charged and blistered
Russians should be baby-sitted
Americans enlisted
I guess you’ve changed, you’ve changed and how
Yeah, yeah, yeah
Fruit’s grown rotten on the bough

The Night You Murdered Love Song lyric
It's cold outside - The night love died
On the night you murdered love
It's cold outside - The night love died
On the night you murdered love
From an early age
I was taught to respect
That a broken heart girl
Ain't a thing you collect
Close your eyes and say
Nothing lasts a day
You're wasting my time
Yet I love to love you
Close your eyes and say
Honour love obey
You're wasting my time
Yet I love to love you
It's cold outside - The night love died
On the night you murdered love
It's cold outside - The night love died
On the night you murdered love
January... February... March and April May
June July sees you go by
I see love walk away
Didn't use a blade
A bullet or a gun
You poisoned the moonlight
When you put out the sun
Close your eyes and say
Nothing lasts a day
You're wasting my time
Yet I love to love you
Close your eyes and say
Honour love obey
You're wasting my time
Yet I love to love you
It's cold outside - The night love died
On the night you murdered love
It's cold outside - The night love died
On the night you murdered love
January... February... March and April May
June July sees you go by
I see love walk away
Close your eyes and say
Nothing lasts a day
You're wasting my time
Yet I love to love you
It's cold outside - The night love died
On the night you murdered love
It's cold outside - The night love died
On the night you murdered love
It's cold outside - The night love died
On the night you murdered love
On the night you murdered love
It's cold outside - The night love died
On the night you murdered love
From an early age
I was taught to respect

The Look Of Love
When your world is full of strange arrangements
And gravity won’t pull you through
You know you’re missing out on something
Well that something depends on you
All I’m saying, it takes a lot to love you
All I’m doing, you know it’s true
All I mean now, there’s one thing
Yes one thing that turns this grey sky to blue
That’s the look, that’s the look
The look of love
When your girl has left you out on the pavement (goodbye)
Then your dreams fall apart at the seams
Your reason for living’s your reason for leaving
Don’t ask me what it means
Who’s got the look? I don’t know the answer to that question
Where’s the look? if I knew I would tell you
What’s the look? look for your information
Yes there’s one thing, the one thing that still holds true
(what’s that? )
That’s the look, that’s the look
The look of love
If you judge a book by the cover,
Then you’d judge the look by the lover
I hope you’ll soon recover,
Me I go from one extreme to another
And though my friends just might ask me
They say "martin maybe one day you’ll find true love"
I say "maybe, there must be a solution
To the one thing, the one thing, we can’t find"
That’s the look, that’s the look
The look of love
That’s the look, that’s the look
The look of love
That’s the look, that’s the look
Sisters and brothers
Should help each other
Oh, oh, oh
Heavens above
That’s the look, that’s the look, hip hip hooray, ay
That’s the look, that’s the look, yippee ai yippee aiay
That’s the look, that’s the look
Be lucky in love
Look of love
And gravity won’t pull you through
You know you’re missing out on something
Well that something depends on you
All I’m saying, it takes a lot to love you
All I’m doing, you know it’s true
All I mean now, there’s one thing
Yes one thing that turns this grey sky to blue
That’s the look, that’s the look
The look of love
When your girl has left you out on the pavement (goodbye)
Then your dreams fall apart at the seams
Your reason for living’s your reason for leaving

That’s the look, that’s the look, hip hip hooray, ay

Be lucky in love
Look of love
The Power Of Persuasion
Cock a snoot,
Loop the loop,
Hock the hula-hoop,
But now it yo-yo’d back again
Shiver me timbers,
Just jumped ship with a little faith
We could win the championship
Parachute substitute, problem is it’s soooo cute
Workless, cashless, hungry and in debt
Outta house, outta home, outta pocket
They persuade you,
That they made you then betrayed you
And they blame you with the power of persuasion
The power of persuasion
The power of persuasion
The power of persuasion
You bought the troll,
You bought the gonk,
You took it home, and put it on a pedestal
We needed a saviour,
But from it’s behaviour
Why did it have to be so extra-terrestrial?
Tax deductible. cash corruptible,
Never the less another poolswinner
Penniless dog tooth check,
Cash and carry find a girl,
Settle down and marry
They persuade you,
That they made you
The proclaim,
And they’ll maim you with the power of persuasion
The power of persuasion
The power of persuasion
The power of persuasion
I sold the eskimo snow
Build the skyline outta playdo
Persuading you that monochrome is dayglo
With the power of persuasion
Loop the loop,
Hock the hula-hoop,
But now it yo-yo’d back again
Shiver me timbers,
Just jumped ship with a little faith
We could win the championship
Parachute substitute, problem is it’s soooo cute
Workless, cashless, hungry and in debt
Outta house, outta home, outta pocket
They persuade you,
That they made you then betrayed you
And they blame you with the power of persuasion
The power of persuasion

The Real Thing
A mongoose can smile at a cobra
But that cobra will always be a snake
Diamante can shine like a diamond
But you know, like I know
That rock will be fake
It's the real thing
The real thing
Nothing but the real thing
It's real
You can xerox the Mona Lisa
Deadpan Da Vinci in every detail
Might beat customs on a home-made visa
But false papers
Only gets you in jail
It's the real thing
The real thing
Nothing but the real thing
It's real
Life wears a smile on its face
But it comes with a sting in its tail
Make believe fables have their place
But only a fool. Only a fool
Believes fairy tales
I heard all the lies that they tell ya
"Phone me baby. The cheque's in the mail"
Well as fantasy. It may please ya
As the real thing
It does nothing but fail
It's the real thing
The real thing
Nothing but the real thing
It's real
It's the real thing
The real thing
Nothing but the real thing
It's real
But that cobra will always be a snake
Diamante can shine like a diamond
But you know, like I know
That rock will be fake
It's the real thing
The real thing
Nothing but the real thing
It's real
You can xerox the Mona Lisa
Deadpan Da Vinci in every detail
Might beat customs on a home-made visa
But false papers
Only gets you in jail
It's the real thing

This Must Be Magic Song lyric
Abracadabra
I held an iron fist in a velvet glove
I was silk sheathed in steel
I’d disguise every nerve inside of me
Man, I’d forgotten how to feel.
You made me feel so much stronger
This must be magic
You made me feel someone with your love
This must be magic (yes you remade me)
This must be love (yes you persuaded me)
This must be magic (you won’t betray me)
This must be love
I was the hawk not the dove gave up on love
Chasing rainbows, chasing wealth
One angry young man in my own vietnam
At war with the world but just killing myself
You made me feel so much stronger
This must be magic
You made me feel someone with your love
This must be magic (yes you impressed me)
This must be love (you must have blessed me)
This must be magic (when you carress me)
This must be love
You made me feel so much stronger
This must be magic
You made me feel someone with your love
This must be magic (you resurrect me)
This must be love (swore you’d protect me)
This must be magic (say you’ll respect me)
This must be love
This must be, must be, must be love.
I held an iron fist in a velvet glove
I was silk sheathed in steel
I’d disguise every nerve inside of me
Man, I’d forgotten how to feel.
You made me feel so much stronger
This must be magic
You made me feel someone with your love
This must be magic (yes you remade me)
This must be love (yes you persuaded me)
This must be magic (you won’t betray me)
This must be love
I was the hawk not the dove gave up on love
Chasing rainbows, chasing wealth
One angry young man in my own vietnam
At war with the world but just killing myself
You made me feel so much stronger
This must be magic
You made me feel someone with your love
This must be magic (yes you impressed me)
This must be love (you must have blessed me)
This must be magic (when you carress me)
This must be love
You made me feel so much stronger
This must be magic
You made me feel someone with your love
This must be magic (you resurrect me)
This must be love (swore you’d protect me)
This must be magic (say you’ll respect me)
This must be love
This must be, must be, must be love.
Tower Of London
Let me take you to trafalgar square
Let me take you there
Every street’s a fashion catwalk
Everyone’s debonair
Let me take you to piccadilly
Guess it leads somewhere
Tower over centuries, tower over london

Unlock The Secrets Of Your Heart Song lyric
Do you remember sunday nights, summer time at shoom
Joy big enough to fill the world, just inside that room
Do you remember friday nights at the hacienda?
Armistace for gangs, no fights, just beats to make the world surrender
Was it all a dream?
Was it some nightmare?
Crazy as it seems
Love was in the air
No war, no hate, no more
If you’d unlock the secrets of your
No war, no hate, no more
If you’d unlock the secrets of your heart
Day to day existence got it’s gentle grip on you
Suffocating your soul, eclipsing everything you do
(chorus)
Everybody just looking for an answer
Everybody till the day they die
Everybody live with indecision
Everybody seek, everybody find
Everybody want to dance till sunrise
Everybody want to sweat some noise
Everybody want to kiss that dj
Every single girl, everysingle boy
Everybody got their own sweet wisdom
Everybody just a look to start
Everybody got it, inside their heart
(chorus)
No war, no hate, no more
Joy big enough to fill the world, just inside that room
Do you remember friday nights at the hacienda?
Armistace for gangs, no fights, just beats to make the world surrender
Was it all a dream?
Was it some nightmare?
Crazy as it seems
Love was in the air
No war, no hate, no more
If you’d unlock the secrets of your
No war, no hate, no more
If you’d unlock the secrets of your heart
Day to day existence got it’s gentle grip on you
Suffocating your soul, eclipsing everything you do

Valentine's Day Song lyric
When the postman don't call on Valentine's day
And Santa Claus don't come on a Christmas Day
That umbrella won't work on a rainy day
Don't ask me, I already know
When they find you beached on the barrier reef
And the only pleasure treasured is in map relief
The choice is yours, sure, saint or thief
Don't ask me I already know
When they baked your cake in little slices,
Kept your eyes on rising prices,
Wound up winning booby prizes;
I'm sure you'd like to think you know what life is
Find destiny through magazines
Liplicking, unzipping
Harpers and Queens
From here to eternity,
Without in-betweens,
Don't ask me, I already know
With your heart on parade and your heart on parole
I hope you find a sucker to buy that mink stole
School for scandal,
Guess who's enrolled?
So ask me, I already know
When they find you beached on the barrier reef
When the postman don't call on Valentine's Day
When the only pleasure treasured is in map relief
When you don't tell the truth, that's the price you pay
When I'm shaking a hand, I'm clenching a fist
If you gave me a pound for the moments I missed
And I got dancing lessons for all the lips I shoulda kissed
I'd be a millionaire
I'd be a Fred Astaire
And Santa Claus don't come on a Christmas Day
That umbrella won't work on a rainy day
Don't ask me, I already know
When they find you beached on the barrier reef
And the only pleasure treasured is in map relief
The choice is yours, sure, saint or thief
Don't ask me I already know
When they baked your cake in little slices,
Kept your eyes on rising prices,
Wound up winning booby prizes;
I'm sure you'd like to think you know what life is
Find destiny through magazines
Liplicking, unzipping
Harpers and Queens
From here to eternity,
Without in-betweens,
Don't ask me, I already know
With your heart on parade and your heart on parole
I hope you find a sucker to buy that mink stole
School for scandal,
Guess who's enrolled?
So ask me, I already know
When they find you beached on the barrier reef
When the postman don't call on Valentine's Day
When the only pleasure treasured is in map relief
When you don't tell the truth, that's the price you pay
When I'm shaking a hand, I'm clenching a fist
If you gave me a pound for the moments I missed
And I got dancing lessons for all the lips I shoulda kissed
I'd be a millionaire
I'd be a Fred Astaire
Viva Love
You think the world will melt if you whistle
There's a certain spring in your stride
You face the future like a heat-seeking missile
You've got yourself a smile a mile wide
(Yes, you have)
Viva Love
Viva Love, Viva Love, Viva Love
Viva Love
Viva, viva
When lightning strikes you don't look for shelter
You're floating free, gravity defied
It's hell for leather on a helter skelter
So steel your nerves for a bright white knuckle ride
(Yes, you should)
Viva Love
Viva Love, Viva Love, Viva Love
Viva Love
Viva, viva
In the battle of the sexes
Victory's denied
I'm charging your tanks
With slingshots and knives
My troops they retreat
And run for their lives
I'm facing defeat
But somehow love survives
Viva Love
Viva Love, Viva Love, Viva Love
Viva Love
Viva, viva
You think the world will melt if you whistle
There's a certain spring in your stride
(Fade)
There's a certain spring in your stride
You face the future like a heat-seeking missile
You've got yourself a smile a mile wide
(Yes, you have)
Viva Love
Viva Love, Viva Love, Viva Love
Viva Love
Viva, viva
When lightning strikes you don't look for shelter
You're floating free, gravity defied
It's hell for leather on a helter skelter
So steel your nerves for a bright white knuckle ride
(Yes, you should)
Viva Love
Viva Love, Viva Love, Viva Love
Viva Love
Viva, viva
In the battle of the sexes
Victory's denied
I'm charging your tanks
With slingshots and knives
My troops they retreat
And run for their lives
I'm facing defeat
But somehow love survives
Viva Love
Viva Love, Viva Love, Viva Love
Viva Love
Viva, viva
You think the world will melt if you whistle
There's a certain spring in your stride
(Fade)
Welcome to the real world Song lyric
I was a rich man, I was a thief
I was a sailor, shipwrecked on a reef
I was a coward, I was afraid
I was couragious, man I was brave
Until the oceans dry
Until the day you die
Until the stars fall out the sky
Welcome to the real world baby
Welcome to the way things are
Welcome to the real world darling
Step on for shangri-la
Welcome to the real world baby
Paradise guarantee
Welcome to the real world
Come and see what we’ve bequeathed
I was an angel, idolised
I was a devil in a disguise
I was a stalion, I was a mule
I was misguided, but nobody’s fool
(chorus)
The day that I was born, daddy placed me on his knee
Said son you’ve got to be, a better man than me
You’re inherriting the world, make your mark on history
Welcome to the real world, be what you’ve got to be
Welcome to the real world
I was a sailor, shipwrecked on a reef
I was a coward, I was afraid
I was couragious, man I was brave
Until the oceans dry
Until the day you die
Until the stars fall out the sky
Welcome to the real world baby
Welcome to the way things are
Welcome to the real world darling
Step on for shangri-la
Welcome to the real world baby
Paradise guarantee
Welcome to the real world
Come and see what we’ve bequeathed
I was an angel, idolised
I was a devil in a disguise
I was a stalion, I was a mule
I was misguided, but nobody’s fool
(chorus)
The day that I was born, daddy placed me on his knee
Said son you’ve got to be, a better man than me
You’re inherriting the world, make your mark on history
Welcome to the real world, be what you’ve got to be
Welcome to the real world
When Smokey Sings Song lyric
Debonair lullabies in melodies revealed
In deep despair on lonely nights
He knows just how you feel
The slyest rhymes - the sharpest suits
In miracles made real
Like a bird in flight on a hot sweet night
You know you’re right just to hold her tight
He soothes it right - makes it outtasite
And everything’s good in the world tonight!
When smokey sings - I hear violins
When smokey sings - I forget everything
As she’s packing her things
As she’s spreading her wings
The front door might slam
But the back door it rings
And smokey sings...he sings
Elegance in eloquence - for sale or rent or hire
Should I say - yes I match his best
Then I would be a liar
Symphonies that soothe the rage
When lovers hearts catch fire
Like a bird in flight on a hot sweet night
You know you’re right just to hold her tight
He soothes it right - makes it outtasite
And everything’s good in the world tonight!
When smokey sings - I hear violins
When smokey sings - I forget everything
As she’s packing her things
As she’s spreading her wings
Smashing the hell
With the heaven she brings
Then smokey sings...he sings
Luther croons
Sly’s the original - originator
James screams
Marvin was the only innovator
But nothing can compare
Nothing can compare
When smokey sings
When smokey sings - I hear violins
When smokey sings - I forget everything
As she’s packing her things
As she’s spreading her wings
She threw back the ring
When smokey sings...
Smokey sings...
Smokey sings...
In deep despair on lonely nights
He knows just how you feel
The slyest rhymes - the sharpest suits
In miracles made real
Like a bird in flight on a hot sweet night
You know you’re right just to hold her tight
He soothes it right - makes it outtasite
And everything’s good in the world tonight!
When smokey sings - I hear violins
When smokey sings - I forget everything
As she’s packing her things
As she’s spreading her wings
The front door might slam
But the back door it rings
And smokey sings...he sings
Elegance in eloquence - for sale or rent or hire
Should I say - yes I match his best
Then I would be a liar
Symphonies that soothe the rage
When lovers hearts catch fire
Like a bird in flight on a hot sweet night
You know you’re right just to hold her tight
He soothes it right - makes it outtasite
And everything’s good in the world tonight!
When smokey sings - I hear violins
When smokey sings - I forget everything
As she’s packing her things
As she’s spreading her wings
Smashing the hell
With the heaven she brings
Then smokey sings...he sings
Luther croons

But nothing can compare
Nothing can compare
When smokey sings
When smokey sings - I hear violins
When smokey sings - I forget everything
As she’s packing her things
As she’s spreading her wings
She threw back the ring
When smokey sings...
Smokey sings...
Smokey sings...
Where is the Heaven Song lyric
Vandals in ermine
Rip city skylines
Dodge truth and virtue
With slick city bylines
A paragon of virtue
Until they hurt you
In power and in status
We know they hate us
So where is the heaven
And where is there love?
Where the hell is the heaven?
That you’re so proud of
Power is preaching
The virtues of poverty
Poor are left feeding
On cruel comedy...sad laughter
Rescue us all now
From fumes that choke us
Shift then these sad lives
Into sweet focus
So where is the heaven
And where is there love?
Where the hell is the heaven?
That you’re so proud of
Prestige it sits high
On mammons alter
Porsche hungry pinheads
On champagne and oysters
Head full of hollow thoughts
Handful of sushi
Plug into dallas babe
Plug into dynasty
So where is the heaven
And where is there love?
Where the hell is the heaven?
That you’re so proud of
Now I am loving
Where once I was hating
Leading a good life
Stopped paging satan
Played devils advocate
So many times
Lived in the shadows
But the sun will shine. shine. shine
So where is the heaven
And where is there love?
Where the hell is the heaven?
That you’re so proud of
Where is the kingdom?
You say we squander?
Where the hell is the heaven?
Must we wait much longer?
Rip city skylines
Dodge truth and virtue
With slick city bylines
A paragon of virtue
Until they hurt you
In power and in status
We know they hate us
So where is the heaven
And where is there love?
Where the hell is the heaven?
That you’re so proud of
Power is preaching
The virtues of poverty
Poor are left feeding
On cruel comedy...sad laughter
Rescue us all now
From fumes that choke us
Shift then these sad lives
Into sweet focus
So where is the heaven
And where is there love?
Where the hell is the heaven?
That you’re so proud of
Prestige it sits high
On mammons alter
Porsche hungry pinheads
On champagne and oysters
Head full of hollow thoughts
Handful of sushi
Plug into dallas babe
Plug into dynasty
So where is the heaven
And where is there love?
Where the hell is the heaven?
That you’re so proud of
Now I am loving
Where once I was hating
Leading a good life
Stopped paging satan
Played devils advocate
So many times
Lived in the shadows
But the sun will shine. shine. shine
So where is the heaven
And where is there love?
Where the hell is the heaven?
That you’re so proud of
Where is the kingdom?
You say we squander?
Where the hell is the heaven?
Must we wait much longer?
15 Storey Halo Song lyric
It’ll never happen until you remove
Until you flatten your 10-20-30-40-15 storey halo
Bottle blondes and beach boys
Might marvel at the size
But honey something that big
You now the best don’t advertise
Has no-one ever told you
You gotta body build to last?
But with that 15 storey deadstop
You’re going nowhere, and fast
10-20-30-40! 15 storey halo!
10-20-30-40! 15 storeys high!
10-20-30-40! 15 storey halo
10-20-30-40? 7 miles wide
7 miles wide!
"ask a judge and jury
Joe find me 12 just men
We’re gonna bottle up their fury
Make sure don’t happen again"
All the rebel boys got payrolled
Now they’re queuing outside the bank
Like 14 carat playboys
On a trans-cool trans-world tramp
10-20-30-40! 15 storey halo!
10-20-30-40! 15 storeys high!
10-20-30-40! 15 storey halo
10-20-30-40? 7 miles wide
7 miles wide!
And so you meet this guy
A regular gala-had
A real house-trained barbarian
And so you drop him
Like a bad habit
But anything that comes along
You grab it
Oh we’re all waiting
For a saving grace
Hands that soothe
Hands that smoothe the human race
Yes we’re all waiting
For a saving grace
Hands that soothe
Hands that smoothe the human race
Until you flatten your 10-20-30-40-15 storey halo
Bottle blondes and beach boys
Might marvel at the size
But honey something that big
You now the best don’t advertise
Has no-one ever told you
You gotta body build to last?
But with that 15 storey deadstop
You’re going nowhere, and fast
10-20-30-40! 15 storey halo!
10-20-30-40! 15 storeys high!
10-20-30-40! 15 storey halo
10-20-30-40? 7 miles wide
7 miles wide!
"ask a judge and jury
Joe find me 12 just men
We’re gonna bottle up their fury
Make sure don’t happen again"
All the rebel boys got payrolled

On a trans-cool trans-world tramp

Yes we’re all waiting

Hands that soothe
Hands that smoothe the human race
4 Ever 2 Gether Song lyric
Speak no
Evil
You can’t tell me, how to run my life
You can’t tell me, drugs you’re using
You’re talking loud, and saying nothing
Walking proud, and going nowhere fast
You know
If you could tell me, how to find belief
If you told me, I’d believe you
Speak no evil, hear no evil
See no evil, I’ll close my eyes
You know, love grows
_ chorus:
4 ever 2 gether, 4 years 2 come
4 love 2 strong, 4 us 2 part
4 ever 2 gether, 4 years 2 come
4 love 2 strong, 4 us 2 part
I stuck a marriage proposal
In the waste disposal
If that’s the trash aesthetic,
I’d suggest that we forget it
Your 12 disciples might kiss and tell, but
You can tell me much more than they can,
Right now
A mathematical equation
Won’t describe my liaison
The stars in the sky might try persuading
But you can tell me, I won’t hear you
You can’t tell me, I gave up the listening
Years ago
_ to chorus
So you’re broken heart, here, take it to the mender
I got something on the agenda
Speak. no
Evil
4 ever 2 gether, 4 years 2 come
4 love 2 strong, 4 us 2 part
For when two hearts but strong and sweet
One promise I can never meet
Forgive and forget, for goodness sake
For love this strong, might make or break
4 ever 2 gether, 4 years 2 come
4 love 2 strong, 4 us 2 part
Two’s a party, three’s a crowd
I’m surprised what get’s allowed
Three coins inside the fountain
You saw mohammed move the mountain
Speak no evil
Evil
You can’t tell me, how to run my life
You can’t tell me, drugs you’re using
You’re talking loud, and saying nothing
Walking proud, and going nowhere fast
You know
If you could tell me, how to find belief
If you told me, I’d believe you
Speak no evil, hear no evil
See no evil, I’ll close my eyes
You know, love grows
_ chorus:
4 ever 2 gether, 4 years 2 come
4 love 2 strong, 4 us 2 part
4 ever 2 gether, 4 years 2 come
4 love 2 strong, 4 us 2 part
I stuck a marriage proposal
In the waste disposal
If that’s the trash aesthetic,
I’d suggest that we forget it
Your 12 disciples might kiss and tell, but
You can tell me much more than they can,

A King Without A Crown Song lyric
Welcome to the great republic
Guess I should show you round
Where once I was a King
And now I am a clown
The love that we once shared
Made a King of me
But now you're gone...but now you're gone
All I face is poverty
...King without a heart
...King without a hope
...King without a woman baby
Oh I'm a King without a crown
...King without a heart ...
...King without a hope
...King without a woman baby
Oh I'm a King without a crown
Hell hath no fury
Like a woman scorned
But heaven don't boast - no heaven don't boast
The jewel - the pretty jewel I just pawned
Every cloud has a silver lining
Every dog has its day
Oh but I guess the sun stopped shining
On the day you went away
Bathed in former glory
Deposed from my throne
How do I get to tell my story?
When all get's your answerphone...
But you ain't home
With the love you gave
I felt like royalty
But now you're face to face - face to face
With one ex-member of the aristocracy
There's no need to feel down
Yeah just take a look around
You'll see a man who's just a man
Nothing more
A King without a crown
Guess I should show you round
Where once I was a King
And now I am a clown
The love that we once shared
Made a King of me
But now you're gone...but now you're gone
All I face is poverty
...King without a heart
...King without a hope
...King without a woman baby
Oh I'm a King without a crown
...King without a heart ...
...King without a hope
...King without a woman baby
Oh I'm a King without a crown
Hell hath no fury
Like a woman scorned
But heaven don't boast - no heaven don't boast
The jewel - the pretty jewel I just pawned
Every cloud has a silver lining
Every dog has its day
Oh but I guess the sun stopped shining
On the day you went away
Bathed in former glory
Deposed from my throne
How do I get to tell my story?
When all get's your answerphone...
But you ain't home
With the love you gave
I felt like royalty
But now you're face to face - face to face
With one ex-member of the aristocracy
There's no need to feel down
Yeah just take a look around
You'll see a man who's just a man
Nothing more
A King without a crown
All of Your Heart Song lyric
Once upon a time when we were friends
I gave you my heart
the story ends -
No happy ever after now we're friends.
Wish upon a star if that might help
The stars collide if you decide
Wish upon a star if that might help.
What's it like to have loved and to lose her touch?
What's it like to have loved and to lose that much?
Well
I hope and I pray that maybe someday
You'll walk in the room with my heart.
Add and subtract but as a matter of fact
Now that you're gone I still want you back.
Remembering surrendering
Remembering that part - all of my heart.
Spilling up in silk and coffee lace
You hook me up a rendezvous at your place
Your lipstick and your lipgloss seals my fate.
Sentimental powers might help you now
But skip the hearts and flowers
skip the ivory towers
You'll be disappointed and I'll lose a friend.
No
I won't be told there's a crock of gold at the end of the rainbow
Or that pleasure and pain
Sunshine and rain might make this love grow.
But I hope and I pray that maybe someday
You'll walk in the room with my heart.
Add and subtract but as a matter of fact
Now that you're gone I still want you back.
Remembering - surrendering
The kindest struck the coolest heart - all of my heart.
Yes
I hope and I pray that maybe someday
You'll wakl in the room with my heart.
And I shrug and I say that maybe today you'll come home soon.
Surrendering - remembering
Surrendering that heart
all of my heart - all of my heart.
I gave you my heart
the story ends -
No happy ever after now we're friends.
Wish upon a star if that might help
The stars collide if you decide
Wish upon a star if that might help.
What's it like to have loved and to lose her touch?
What's it like to have loved and to lose that much?
Well
I hope and I pray that maybe someday
You'll walk in the room with my heart.
Add and subtract but as a matter of fact
Now that you're gone I still want you back.
Remembering surrendering
Remembering that part - all of my heart.
Spilling up in silk and coffee lace
You hook me up a rendezvous at your place
Your lipstick and your lipgloss seals my fate.
Sentimental powers might help you now
But skip the hearts and flowers
skip the ivory towers
You'll be disappointed and I'll lose a friend.
No
I won't be told there's a crock of gold at the end of the rainbow
Or that pleasure and pain
Sunshine and rain might make this love grow.
But I hope and I pray that maybe someday
You'll walk in the room with my heart.
Add and subtract but as a matter of fact
Now that you're gone I still want you back.
Remembering - surrendering
The kindest struck the coolest heart - all of my heart.
Yes
I hope and I pray that maybe someday
You'll wakl in the room with my heart.
And I shrug and I say that maybe today you'll come home soon.
Surrendering - remembering
Surrendering that heart
all of my heart - all of my heart.
