Do I
Shouldn't Do That
Your Appetite
Rivers
Sit Down and Shut Up
Afraid of You
Jigsaw
Fear of Falling
Charm of a Gun
You Really Take My Breath Away
All caught up in a crazy dance
living on rhythm and circumstance
all washed up can't you see
that's your problem
make a change in our hum-drum lives
to re-awake and realize
we're all living on a time bomb
that's gonna blow us to pieces
pressure's on heart attack
science fiction is science fact
watch your back when the bullets fly
that's our problem
Chorus:
So do I, how do I, when do I do wrong
take a look, take a look around town
get get get along down
So do I, how do I, when do I do wrong
take a look, take a look around town
hey hey hey yeah, no no no yeah
so do I, how do I, when do I do wrong
sing it out, sing it sing it out loud
come on, come on, come yeah now
Crazy peoples right to speak
pushing and a shoving
on a one way street
that's enough I draw the line
go to sleep for a long long time
blinkers on straight ahead
button my lip that's what I said
listening, I can't justify
oh, the pain in me I cry
pressures on heart attack...
(chorus)
There is a time for everyone
but this ain't the time or the place
when will you see what you're doing to me
my tear stains are easy to trace
Chorus:
shouldn't do that, you shouldn't do that now baby
shouldn't do that, did nobody ever tell you that you
shouldn't do that, shouldn't go that now darlin
shouldn't do that, did nobody ever tell you not to
something's ain't worth the worry
when you fight for them hand over tooth
you've got one hell of a lesson coming
cos I'm gonna teach you the truth
(chorus)
There is a time for most things honey
something's are easy to see
something's are better forgotten
like you sure made a fool out of me
(chorus)
Hot cold sweaty, I can't sleep
you hold me to promises I can't keep
in the night you will wake
you will want to eat yeah
compassion is one thing
this ain't for sure
they all nearly died
when you walked through the door
eyes wide open, you want the best
they give you what they've got
and then you take the rest
To the lesser ridiculous point of sublime
you're a red hot blooded porcupine
send those itchy cold fingers
running down my spine yeah
something is cooking
yeah something is hot
I know I ain't long
but how long have I got
easy woman tell easy lies
how long before you realize
There's only one thing that bothers me
there's only one thing that I don't like
did you choose me out of sympathy
or did you choose me for your appetite?
I'm so rigid, you're so loose
how come you get the medal
but I get the noose?
There's only one thing that's eating me up
there's only one thing that just ain't right
did you choose me out of sympathy
or did you choose me for your appetite?
Have you seen the footprints
laying side by side on the sand?
I can see they belong to me,
but I can't identify the pair of the other man
where do they come from?
I don't know I just can't understand
how anybody could walk by me
lifting me up, and taking my hand
I need to know,
why do these foot steps follow me yeah?
rows and rows of foot steps
I've found following me
Chorus:
Rivers of love flowing out of your ocean
rivers of love flowing out of your sea
rivers of love flowing out of your ocean
come along flow to me
Why do you take my burden
when the roads get steep all the time
is there no end what you'll do for me
come along tell me now
what's on your mind
I need to know,
why do these foot steps follow me yeah?
rows and rows of foot steps
I've found following me
(chorus)
All my loving all at once, I gave it all to you
jealous woman pull your punch, break my heart in two
sit down. sit right down and shut your mouth
sit down. shut up. listen to me, I'm talking to you
I said sit down. sit right down and shut your mouth
sit down. shut up listen to me I'm talking too
you know how to hurt me badly
you know how to hit me, hurt me, push me, punch me
you know how to hurt me baby
you know how to hit me, hurt me, push me, punch me
Don't push your luck now lady
don't push your luck too far
your tongue is vicious maybe
but my blow is burning fire
Treasures all emotional, were buried in my soul
you took your spade and dug them out
and left me with the hole
so sit down, sit right down...
Reasons, I can't find the reasons
to why on earth I act this way
I can't relate to anybody
fearing, I lower defense again
running through my fingers
I just hold my breath and count to ten
have I really got control of myself?
have I really got control of myself?
Chorus:
I'm so afraid of you. wow
I don't know what I'm doing
I'm totally infatuated with you
It's gonna end in ruin
So what's the meaning of what I'm revealing
to you and you alone I lay
the burdens of my heart, I say are bleeding
can't you remember them?
move across to touch my hand
controller of my soul again
have I really got control of myself?
got to really get control of myself?
(chorus)
Walking in the night
a prisoner of the street signs
they all get me nowhere
searching hard to find any hidden doorway
that might lead me to you
you gave to me your precious love
your precious love
you gave it all to me your precious love
Standing in the rain
a victim of the night fall
in the sleeping city
try your door again
I'll rattle very letter box
before I give in
Chorus:
Love is like a jigsaw
life is like a jigsaw
tell me what you're looking for
I'm picking up the clues
like pieces of a jigsaw
Alone here in my home
I'm hiding in the corner
and I'm asking questions
said all this before
I'll say it once again
for my absent friends
you gave to me your precious love...
(chorus)
Bitter the kiss on the edge of my lips
is the fear of falling
take a chance and prepare to advance
on the fear of falling
tremble inside prepare to collide
with the fear of falling
Heads you win, It's in the stars
light you light show your cards
instrument, do what you do
who're you gonna turn to?
Chorus:
Fear of falling down, hey I'm falling
fear of falling down, hey we're falling
Win or lose, odds that you choose
on the fear of falling
prophecy touch me tenderly
on the fear of falling
Face to face, day to day
I look to you, you look away
I know you know and I know too
who you're gonna turn to?
(chorus)
Last night a lady came knocking at my door
knock knock open up, ain't seen her before
what's your name she said to me, you look the playful kind
I an the angel you require come to waste your time
So I took some time to cool out, chase away the fear
a man comes up to offer me some heavy smoking gear
I said no thanks a lot, I don't shoot that stuff
he looked mad, a gun came out, no ain't good enough
stop and look around, or maybe you won't get much older
people with ambition, there is danger round the corner
some people live on the streets by night
and calm with a charm of a gun
some people live on the streets alright
and calm with a charm of a gun
In this world we're living in, a very narrow line
separates sanity we cross it all the time
if by chance the lunatic, should get the final vote
this can be your serenade, I will row the boat
if you're passing through you better keep your engine running
keep from asking questions if you want to keep on living
I need to take a look round
till I understand what's the good I've found
I need to, just as you like it alright
and I can hear you talking aloud
in the voice I've grown so accustomed to
I can hear you, just as you like it alright
are you feeling alone, are you lonely
there's a place in my arms for you only
you're holding the beat
that my heart keeps missing every day
You really take my breath away
This fever can burn you alive
if you lose your feet or the will to survive
this fever can burn you alive now alright
unaware of mistakes you are making
I'm temporarily here for the taking
competition is hot
and the odds get thinner every day
you really take my breath away
Apart from the vast complications
we're both aware of the list of temptations
too bad that we could not trust
in each others feelings every day
you really take my breath away
