THINK ABOUT IT There’s a hole in the roof and it’s letting the water in The paint is peeling and the ceiling is paper thin There’s something living here but I’m the one paying rent You don’t believe me let me tell you again When everybody says you’re wrong You gotta think about it (think about it) Think about it (think about it) When you’re the only one spinning your song You gotta think about it (think about it) Think about it (think about it) If you believe that you’re gonna live twice You gotta think about it (think about it) Think about it (think about it) When everybody’s sick of your lies You gotta think about it Think about it Think about it There’s a car in the drive but the kitchen is sitting on bricks The room is turning black and making me physically sick I’m trying to build a life but you just keep knocking it down You don’t believe me let me tell you again

Make Your Mind Up I’m like a loaded gun So won’t you fire at will You wipe the dirt from your mouth, baby Just like you’ve had your fill Cos I’m waiting in line for you I’m waiting in line for you I just can’t make up my mind So I break down instead You mark a cross on my heart now, baby But then you aim for my head Cos I’m waiting in line for you I’m waiting in line for you Waiting in line for you Waiting in line for you So won’t you make your mind up Make your mind up I feel the burn of the rope I’m feeling each little thread You think you’ve got me restrained now, sugar But you still lie in my bed Because I’m waiting in line for you I’m waiting in line for you I’m waiting in line for you Waiting in line for you Only you So won’t you make your mind up Make your mind up

The Bomb 03:49
THE BOMB You’re out on Monday night But something ain’t quite right Those black holes in your eyes Betray the thoughts inside That roll around your head You’re like the living dead You play the same old songs Do you know what chord you’re on? Say something. Or nothing Don’t matter till you push the button When you feel that the love is gone You drop the bomb Drop the bomb You pull the heart right out of the sun You drop the bomb Drop the bomb You’re living like a queen Fur coat no knickers if you know what I mean Don’t know what’s in your drink What your daddy tells you I would think You say we’re a despicable shower As you sit up in your ivory tower I know what’s in those pills It’s the only thing that gives you a thrill Or nothing Don’t matter till you push the button When you feel that the love is gone You drop the bomb Drop the bomb You pull the heart right out of the sun When you drop the bomb Drop the bomb Are you happy with the mess you made? When you dropped the bomb Drop the bomb Push the button now it’s gone You drop the bomb Drop the bomb You drop the bomb

HELL, SAVE MY SOUL There’s something about the way There’s something about the way you look tonight It’s pulling upon my heart And other organs I cannot tell apart But when you push your tongue in your cheek I lose my concentration and I cannot speak I don’t know your name I’m feeling the heat with every word you say Hell! Save my soul Cos the world keeps bringing me down  Hell! Save my soul Cos the world keeps bringing me down   There’s something about the way There’s something about the way it feels tonight We could start a war An atomic love that leaves me wanting more But when you wear your heart on your sleeve I lose my inhibitions and I cannot breathe I don’t know your name I’m feeling the heat with every word you say Hell! Save my soul Cos the world keeps bringing me down  Hell! Save my soul Cos the world keeps bringing me down  We’re going down We’re going down See me sink Through solid ground Hell! Save my soul Cos the world keeps bringing me down  Hell! Save my soul Cos the world keeps bringing me down

GETTING AWAY WITH IT I’m driving along on this old dirty road It’s so dark and I can hardly see The rain is pouring down Saturates the ground I see And I’m sorry if you disagree But you paid the price And I’m sorry but I cannot bear to look at you twice Yes I know Yes I know In the end it will all show But I don’t care if it’s right ‘cos I’ve gotta say You’re getting away with it all I don’t like it I don’t like it I don’t like it You’re getting away with it all I don’t like it I don’t like it I don’t like it You’re getting away with it all I’m riding along on the crest of a wave It’s so hot and I can hardly breathe The sun is beating down Breaks up all the ground I see And I’m sorry if you disagree But you paid the price And I’m sorry but I cannot bear to look at you twice Yes I know Yes I know In the end it will all show And I don’t care if it’s right but I’ve gotta say You’re getting away with it all I don’t like it I don’t like it I don’t like it You’re getting away with it all

Love Me 03:48
Love Me Why don’t you love me? Why don’t you need me? Cos I know that you feel it deep inside, side, side, side I feel this endless burning Tearing at my soul because of you Because this endless yearning Is breaking down the walls to get to you You see that we’re still learning But what exactly have you got to prove Oh no If I was in your shoes I know that is exactly what I’d do Why don’t you love me? Why don’t you need me? Cos I know that you feel it deep inside, side, side, side Why won’t you kiss me As I feel the lips that miss me Fall upon my cheek just to the side, side, side of my face of my face I ask for your permission I don’t expect the bitching that you do Control your premonition It’s hard but that is what you’ve got to do You see that we’re still learning But what exactly have we got to prove Woah no If I was in your shoes I know that is exactly what I’d do Woah no And I say keep on counting Keep on counting Keep on counting On me Why don’t you love me? Why don’t you need me? Why don’t you love me? Why? Why? Why? Why? Why won’t you kiss me?

CHANCY GARDNER As long as the roots are good As long as the roots are strong People will get along People will get along Agree just to disagree And united not divided we’ll be Just take a walk with me Just take a walk with me Just take a walk with me Cross the lake to the house and you’ll see All will be well in the garden All will be well in the garden All will be well in the garden and with me Wait for the summer and spring And see all the good it will bring The flowers will bloom for you The flowers will bloom for you I do not know what it means I just like to watch TV All will be well in the garden All will be well in the garden All will be well in the garden and with me Don’t be so narrow-minded Change the channel so you won’t be blinded All will be well in the garden All will be well in the garden All will be well in the garden and with me And with me And with me

Sunlight 03:34
SUNLIGHT When the daylight slowly fades into the black I see you by my side I see you by my side but you’re not there You’re in my dreams Not in my life Every day I take a breath and think of you And everything you do But all the things you say leave me confused You know I love you Yes I do Now the time has come For me to say For me to say You put a little sunlight in my heart Now the time has come For me to say For me to say You put a little sunlight in my heart I can hear your voice And it’s calling me Yes it’s calling me, yeah You put a little sunlight in my You put a little sunlight in my You put a little sunlight in my heart
9.
NOT THE ONLY ONE When everything is said and done You know I’m not the only one for you I acted up you played the part Is it time for us to start anew? 'Cos I don’t understand exactly what you want from me It takes two hands to clap Two hearts to beat the drum Just a single moment in time But you know I’m not the only one One word to start One more to load the gun Just a single moment in time But you know I’m not the only one I’m hanging on the telephone But all I get is the same tone with you I call you up, you start a fight Is it time we see the light anew? Cos I don’t understand exactly what you want from me It takes two hands to clap Two hearts to beat the drum Just a single moment in time But you know I’m not the only one One word to start One more to load the gun Just a single moment in time But you know I’m not the only one You know I’m not the only one You know I’m not the only one Just a single moment in time You know I’m not the only one You know I’m not the only one Just a single moment in time But you know I’m not the only one for you

You Say 06:45
YOU SAY I don’t know just what to do Cos all I have is thoughts of you You danced around the living room But now you’re gone much too soon Woah Cos you say Exactly what you want now Exactly what you like And everything’ll be all right Love me If only for an hour If only for tonight And everything’ll be all right You held my face inside your hands You were so weak You couldn’t stand Please just stay with me tonight Your soul is strong And you’ve got fight You say Exactly what you want now Exactly what you like And everything’ll be all right Love me If only for an hour If only for tonight And everything’ll be all right You say Exactly what you want now Exactly what you like And everything’ll be all right Love me If only for an hour If only for tonight And everything’ll be all right
