Going Up
If they're watching my film
Analysing me
Rusty junker squawker
Shaking up it say
If we should pull
The plugs out, out of our history
And all of history
Yeah
Things that shouldn't be
Things that couldn't be
No, things that had to be
Don't you see? (x2)
It's going up up up
It's going up
(x 2)
Let's get the hell out of here (x 2)
Going up
Going down
D'you want to know what's wrong with the world?
Everywhere there's people with no flowers in their hair
Flowers in their hair
Flowers
(x2)
Do It Clean
I've got a handful of this
What do I do with it?
I've got a barrel of this
What do I do with it?
I do it clean, I do it clean
Do it clean, do it clean
Know what I mean
Do it clean, do it clean
I know what I mean, I mean
Where am I going
Where have I been
Where are you going
Where have you been
I've been here, I've been there
I've been here, there, everywhere
Here there nowhere
Iszy bitzy witzy itzy everywhere
I've been here and I've been there
I'm clean
I had a handful of this
What did I do with it?
I had a barrel of this
What did I do with it?
I did it clean, I did it clean
Do it clean, do it clean
Know what I mean?
Do it clean, do it clean
I know what I mean
Stars are Stars
The sky seems full
When you're in the cradle
The rain will fall
And wash your dreams
Chorus:
Stars are stars
And they shine so hard
Now you spit out the sky
Because it's empty and hollow
All your dreams
Are hanging out to dry
(chorus)
I saw you climb
Shadows on the trees
We lost some time
After things that never matter
I caught that falling star
It cut my hands to pieces
Where did I put that box
That had my name in it
I saw you climb
Shadows on the trees
We lost some time
After things that never matter
Cards are played
And the clock's real heavy
Say you're numb
Make another day
You came here late
You've gone home early
Who'll remember now
You've gone away
Gone away
Gone away
Pride
Refrain 1:
Mother says
Sister says
Would you mind if we laugh at you
Do you mind if we sing with you
Daddy says
Brother says
Make us proud of you
Do something we can't do
Do it, do it
Do it, do it
Do it
John waits
Barry hates
I think I'm heading for a fall
They hope I'm heading for a fall
Peter says
Julie says
I think it's time you stopped stalling
We think it's time you start falling
Fall
(refrain 1)
Do it, do it, do it, do it
Do it, do it, do it, do it
Do it, do it
Monkeys
I bagsy yours
If you'll bagsy mine
I'll take a chance
If you'll take the blame
Forget it
Forget it
Keymon
Keymon
Boys are the same
Brains in their pockets
Girls are the same
Knock it and rock it
Remember
Remember
Keymon
Keymon
I'm not a holy man
I'm too lowly for that
I'm not a praying man
I'm not ready for that
Keymon
Keymon
I bagsy yours
If you'll bagsy mine
I'll take a chance
If you'll take the blame
Forget it
Forget it
Keymon
Keymon Keymon

Crocodiles
I read it in a magazine
I don't wanna see it again
I threw away the magazine
And looked for someone to explain
I don't wanna look back
I can't look around
I don't wanna see it coming round
Listen to the ups and downs
Listen to the sound they make
Don't be scared when it gets loud
When you're skin begins to shake
'Cause you don't wanna look back
You gotta look tall
You gotta see those creeps crawl
I know you know
I know you know
I can see you've got the blues
In your alligator shoes
Me, I'm all smiles
I got my crocodiles
I don't wanna look back
I can't turn around
I don't want to see it coming down
Met someone just the other day
Said wait until tomorrow
I said, hey what you doing today
He said, I'm going to do it tomorrow
Met someone just the other day
Said wait until tomorrow
I said, hey, what you doing today
I'm going to do it tomorrow
Rescue
If I said I'd lost my way
Would you sympathise
Could you sympathise?
I'm jumbled up
Maybe I'm losing my touch
I'm jumbled up
Maybe I'm losing my touch
But you know I didn't have it anyway
Chorus:
Won't you come on down to my
Won't you come on down to my rescue
Chorus 1:
Things are wrong
Things are going wrong
Can you tell that in a song
I don't know what I want anymore
First I want a kiss and then I want it all
(chorus)
Rescue, rescue, rescue
(chorus 1)
Losing sense of those harder things
Is this the blues I'm singing? (x4)
(chorus)
Is this the blues I'm singing
Won't you come on down to my rescue
Won't you come on down to my (x4)
(Is this the blues I'm singing?)
Won't you come on down to my
(Rescue)
Won't you come on down to my
(Is this the blues I'm singing?)
(Rescue)
(x3)
Won't you come on down to my
(Is this the, I'm singing)
(x2)
Villiers Terrace
I've been up to Villiers Terrace
To see what's a-happening
There's people rolling 'round on the carpet
Mixing up the medicine
I've been up to Villiers Terrace
I saw what's a-happening
People rolling 'round on the carpet
Biting wool and pulling string
You said people rolled on carpet
But I never thought they'd do those things
I've been up to Villiers Terrace
I've been in a daze for days
I drank some of the medici-i-i-ine
And I didn't like the taste
I've been up to Villiers Terrace
I've been in a daze for days
People rolling 'round on your carpet
Biting wool and pulling string
You said people rolled on carpet
But I never thought they'd do those things
Been up to Villiers Terrace
To see what's a-happening
People rolling 'round on the carpet
Passing 'round the medicine
Been up to Villiers Terrace
I saw what's a-happening
There's people rolling 'round on my carpet
Biting wool and pulling string
You said people rolled on carpet, boys
But I never thought they'd do those things
Bopsie waddy waddy
Shake your money
(Been down to Villiers Terrace.
(x 4...)
Read It in Books
You said you couldn't find anyone
To love you
I said there's more to life than a broken heart
Did it console you?
I've seen in your eyes
I've read it in books
Who wants love
Without the looks
You know the words
Please do say it from your knees
Show some respect
Hey baby, genuflect
Once I like crying
Twice I like laughter
Come on tell me what I'm after
I said you've gotta stop chasing rainbows
You said I'm just staying up
And anyway
I like it when the rain goes
Chorus:
I've seen in your eyes
I've read it in books
Who want's love
Without the looks
Once I like crying
Twice I like laughter
Come on tell me what I'm after
There's not that much to us
I hide the little with a lot
You still expect a lovely fuss
After showing all you've got
(chorus)
That's all
Pictures on My Wall
Can you hear it?
The sound of something burning
Something changing
On the merry-go-round tonight
Chorus:
The pictures on my wall
Are about to swing and fall
Love it all
Love it all
Chorus 1:
Ooh, we should have
Should have got it right
Ooh, we should have
Should have got it right tonight
People come
I count every one
Faces burning, hearts beating
Nowhere left for us to run
(chorus)
(chorus 1)
Can you hear it
The sound of someone thinking
Someone thinking
On the merry-go-round tonight
The pictures on my wall
Are about to swing and fall
Love it all
Love it all
All That Jazz
Where the hell have you been
We've been waiting with our best suits on
Hair slicked back and all that jazz
Rolling down the Union Jack
See you at the barricades babe
See you when the lights go low, Joe
Hear you when the wheels turn round
Someday when the sky turns black
It appears because it's what I feel
I know I don't understand
If you ask you know I don't mind kneeling
But when my knees hurt I like to stand
Instinct is the common lawyer
A million years won't erase
Strike the chord I'm searching for
Call it a committed race
No matter how I shake my fist
I know I can't resist it
No matter how you shake your fist
You know you can't resist it
See you at the barricades babe
See you when the lights go low, Joe
Hear you when the wheels turn round
Someday when the sky turns black
Happy Death Men
Chorus:
Happy death men stand in line
Happy death men
Happy death men punch and shine
Happy death men
Chorus 1:
Happy death men
The last breath man
Happy death men
Take them to your heart
Chorus 2:
Happy death men
No regret men
Happy death men
Like to keep things dark
(chorus)
Happy death men
The last breath men
Happy death men
Take them to your heart
(chorus 2)
Okay
(chorus)
(chorus 1)
(chorus 2)
Here we go
Mmm, ooh (x5)
