GIRLS &
BOYS Street's like a jungle
So call the police
Following the herd
Down to Greece
On holiday
Love in the 90's
Is paranoid
On sunny beaches
Take your chances looking for
(Chorus)
Girls who are boys
Who like boys to be girls
Who do boys like they're girls
Who do girls like they're boys
Always should be someone you really love
Avoiding all work
Because there's none available
Like battery thinkers
Count your thoughts on 1 2 3 4 5 fingers
Nothing is wasted
Only reproduced
Get nasty blisters
Du bist sehr schön
But we haven't been introduced
(Chorus)
TRACY JACKS
Works in civil service
It's steady employment
It's a golfing fanatic
But his put is erratic
Saw a harley street doctor
Who prescribed healthy living
He's getting past forty
And all the seams are splitting
Everyday he got closer
He knew in his heart he was over
I'd love to stay here and be normal
But it's just so overrated
Left home without warning
At five in the morning
Got on the first train to Walton
And stood on the seafront
Threw his clothes in the water
And ran around naked
Got stopped by the police
And escorted back home
Everyday he got closer
He knew in his heart he was over
I'd love to stay here and be normal
But then it's just so overrated
Tracy jacks tracy jacks tracy jacks tracy jacks
And then it happened on a tuesday morning
Tracy jacks bulldozed down the house he lived in
Saying it's just so overrated
Tracy jacks tracy jacks tracy jacks tracy jacks
Everyday he got closer
He knew in his heart he was over
I'd love to stay here and be normal
But it was always overrated
END OF
THE CENTURY
She said there's
Ants in the carpet
Dirty like monsters
Eating all the morsels
Picking up the rubbish
Give her effervescence
She needs a little sparkle
Good morning TV
You're looking so healthy
(chorus)
And we all say
Don't want to be alone
We wear the same clothes
Because we feel the same
And kiss with dry lips
When we say goodnight
End of the century... it's nothing special
Sex on the TV
Everybody's at it
And the mind gets dirty
As you get closer to thirty
He gives her a cuddle
They're glowing in a huddle
Good night TV you're all made up
And you know that
(chorus)
Can you eat her
yes you can
(chorus)
PARKLIFE
Confidence is a preference for the habitual
voyeur of what is known as (parklife)
And morning soup can be avoided if you take a route straight
through what is known as (parklife)
John's got brewers droop he gets intimidated by the dirty
pigeons they love a bit of it (parklife)
Who's that gut lord marching... You should cut down on your
porklife mate... Get some exercise
(chorus)
All the people
So many people
They all go hand in hand
Hand in hand through their parklife
Know what I mean
I get up when I want except on wednesdays when I get rudely
awakened by the dustmen
(parklife)
I put my trousers on, have a cup of tea and I think about
leaving the house (parklife)
I feed the pigeons I sometimes feed the sparrows too it gives
me a sense of enormous well being (parklife)
And then I'm happy for the rest of the day safe in the knowledge
there will always be a bit of my heart devoted to it (parklife)
(chorus)
Parklife (parklife) parklife (parklife)
It's got nothing to do with vorsprung durch technic you know
And it's not about you joggers who go round and round and
round parklife (parklife)
(chorus x 2)
BANK HOLIDAY
Grandma has got new dentures
To eat the crust on pizza
Been taken out by her daughter
Because she thought she ought'a
The kids are eating snickers
Because they're so delicious
Then there's sticky fingers
And mother looses her knickers
(chorus)
Bank holiday comes six times a year
Days of enjoyment to which everyone cheers
Bank holiday comes with a six pack of beer ....
Then its back to work A.G.A.I.N.
Bar-b-que is cooking
sausages and chicken
The patio is buzzing
The neighbours they are looking
John is down the fun pub
Drinking lots of lager
Girls and boys are on the game
All the high streets look the same
(chorus)
Back to work A.G.A.I.N.
(chorus)
Bank holiday
BADHEAD
So far I've not really stayed in touch
Well you knew as much it's no surprise that today
I'll get up around two from a lack of anything to do
And I might as well just grin and bear it
Because it's not worth the trouble of an argument
And you not really stayed in touch
Well i knew as much it's no surprise that today
I get up around two with nothing to do except get a touch
of flu
And I might as well grin and bear it
Because it's not worth the trouble of an argument
And in any case i'd rRather wear it
It's like a badhead in the morning
And i know
And I might as well grin and bear it
Because it's not worth the trouble of an argument
And in any case i'd rRather wear it
It's like a badhead in the morning
(repeat)
THE DEBT COLLECTOR
[Instrumental]
FAR OUT
I spy in the night sky don't I
Phoebe io e lara leda callisto sinope
Janus dione portia so many moons
Quiet in the sky at night hot in the milky way
Outside in
Vega capella hadar rigel barnard's star
Antares aldebaran altair wolf 359
Betelgeuse sun sun sun (to fade)
TO THE END
All these dirty words
They make us look so dumb been
Drinking far too much
And neither of us mean what we say
(chorus)
Well you and I
Collapsed in love
And it looks like we might have made it, yes it looks like
we've made it to the end
What happened to us
Soon it will be gone forever
Infatuated only with ourselves
And neither of us can think straight anymore
(chorus x 2)
LONDON LOVES
A malady has taken him over
Coughing tar in his japanese motor
The lights are magic
And he feels lucky
And he's got money
Shoots like an arrow - oh
London loves
The mystery of a speeding car
London loves the misery of a speeding heart
It´s love u like, and everyone's at it
And words are cheap when the mind is elastic
He loves the violence
Keeps ticking over
So sleep together
Before today is sold forever
London loves
The way people just fall apart
London loves the way you just don't stand a chance
London lLoves
The mystery of a speeding car
O-oh o-oh o-oh o-oh
London loves
The mystery of a speeding car
London loves
The misery of a speeding heart
London loves
The mystery
London loves
The way people just fall apart
London loves
The way we just don't stand a chance
London loves a speeding heart
TROUBLE
ON THE MESSAGE CENTRE
I am the message centre
Local and direct
Room to room an operator no calls today they'll just have
to wait dear
I call and i collect so just strike him softly away from the
body
You're made up too shiny today (in so much trouble)
Thoughts are just pissing away (in so much trouble)
I am a manager
I am in control
As the local delegator
No calls today dear they'll just have to wait dear
I offer no guarantee at all so don't take it lightly
You'll put yourself under
You're made up too shiny today (in so much trouble)
Thoughts are just pissing away (in so much trouble)
A new type face and new day (in so much trouble)
You can't remember ten minutes ago (in so much trouble)
It's too much trouble
You're made up too shiny today (in so much trouble)
Thoughts are just pissing away (in so much trouble)
A new type face and new day (in so much trouble)
You can't remember ten minutes ago (in so much trouble)
It's too much trouble
La la la la la la la la la (to fade)
CLOVER OVER
DOVER
I'm on the white cliffs of dover
Thinking it over and over
But if i jump its all over
A cautionary tale for you
I'd like to roll in the clover
With you over and over
On the white cliffs of dover
And then i'd let you push me over
(chorus)
And if that is the fact then in actual fact it's not where
it's at and it's over
And if that is the fact then in actual fact it's not where
it's at and it's over
Yes it is
And now the bluebirds are over
Over the white cliffs of dover
So when you push me over
Don't bury me i'm not worth anything
(chorus)
MAGIC
AMERICA
Bill barret has a simple dream
He calls it his plan B
Where there are buildings in the sky and the air is sugar
free
And everyone is very friendly
Plan B arrived on a holiday
Took a cab to the shopping malls
Bought and ate until he could do neither anymore
Then found love on channel 44
(chorus)
la la la la la he wants to go to magic America
la la la la la he'd like to live in magic America
With all the magic people
Bill barrett sent his postcards home
To everyone he'd ever known they read
Fifty nine cents gets you a good square meal
From the people who care how you feel
(chorus x 2)
With all the magic people (fade to end)
JUBILEE
Jubilee slouches in the settee
He losing all will to move
He gone divy too much telly
He watching 24 hours of rubbish
He got butane he got plastic bags
His eyes are going square oh yeah
He no raver just anti social
He no going to cut his hair
He dresses incorrectly... no-one told him how to do it,
He dresses incorrectly... seventeen he not mean enough,
He dresses incorrectly... talk to girls but he´s just
to spetty
He dresses incorrectly... not keen on being like anyone else
Jubilee's dad billy banker
He thinks his son is a slob
He should get out more stop scabbing
He really should go and get a job
He dresses incorrectly... no-one told him how to do it,
He dresses incorrectly... seventeen he not mean enough,
He dresses incorrectly... talk to girls but he´s just
to spetty
He dresses incorrectly... not keen on being like anyone else
So he just plays on his computer games
THIS IS A LOW
And into the sea goes pretty england and me
Around the bay of biscay and back for tea
Hit traffic on the dogger bank
Up the thames to find a taxi rank
Sail on by with the tide and fall asleep
And the radio says
(chorus)
This is a low
But it won't hurt you
When you are alone it will be there with you
Finding ways to stay solo
On the tyne forth and cramity
There's a low in the high forties
And saturday's locked away on the pier
Not fast enough dear
on the malin head, blackpool looks blue and red
And the queen, she's gone round the bend
Jumped off land's end
(chorus x 3)
