Love And Trucks
I've been living
?? go for so long
well aware I'm letting it drag on
kept me occupied,
I didn't mind the way
had me into ??
Love and trucks
last thing I need is something to eat
all I want is to get some sleep
but they won't ask the ?? for a sleepathon
Sunshower
I can't find the way out
??
??
??
out side is a sunshower
and i'm still in my pajammers
and you, are still in the bathroom
and i, can't find the milk now
and ?? to wash
Going out in a sunshower
??
Load
Mr Austin
What is it? ba, ba, ba, ba, ba, ba
it's not at all like it is in the movies
with your popcorn and coke in your lap
just a bit like it is in the movies
if your late you can't catch up on the start.
It's not at all like it is in the movies
you can just sit back and turn out the light
and end up happy together
and watch the credits roll out into the night.
Been searching for a song on the late night radio
Mr Austin ?? never know
It's not at all like it is on the late night TV screen
you kknow who the killer is
and the sister play the detective
she says a line that you'll never forget
I'm looking for a reason
behind the ??
for the photo I hold in my hand
Been searching for someone to know
shes not gonna just appear on the screen
Chasing secret ?? working out
what do they mean
It's not at all like it is in the movies etc.
Single
I just want to be single
but I want to see you every single day
and he said "I'll see you in October, girl"
and I say "I really wanna see you now"
'Cos if a whole day goes by without thinking of you
there's a hole in my day
and maybe I'll fill it up
with someone else to replace your smile
so I know I'll never be single
even though I tried it for a day
You said I don't like the sentiment
but I'll sing along anyway
I just want to be single, girl
but I wanna see you every single day
And the photo showed it was over
I could see it in your eye
look straight into the camera lens
without a wave goodbye
And if one day goes by without thinking of you
there's a hole in my day
and maybe I'll fill it up
with someone else to replace your smile
so I know I'll never be single
even though I tried it for a day
I just want to be single
but I want to see you every single day
he said "I'll see you in October, girl"
and I say "I really like to see you now".
Butterfly Knife
She said "I'm lonely but don't know
how to get away
each time I try to leave I've got nowhere to stay
My brother looks over me
tells me who I should or shouldn't see
he's always hanging the fuck round me
how can I tell him I've got a mind of my own
and sometimes I want to be alone with you"
A year later I hear from her
and she's been locked away
her brother took it too far
so she killed him one day
and she stabbed him with a Butterfly Knife
and left the house and stayed out all night with me
And I wondered why her brother wasn't nearby
and she kept on mumbling something about a knife
Now the guards they look over her
and tell her where she should or shouldn't go
and every day goes by so fucking slow
So how can I tell her "I'm still on my own
and sometimes I want to be alone with you"
the murderer
with you, the murderer.
Way Out Jim
I never went and saw you
just didnt want to
wreck what I'd made you out to be
I didn't want second best
I want you to know
should I stay or do I
really have a hand in my forgetting
which side I ride on
I'm on the way out Jim
and you're on the way in
Should I choose again now
dig deeper in your side
I sit here and you make me break
so sad I cried all night
And now I think that I'm like you
with the same name little sister
did you wish for one last song
something went wrong, went crazy.
Rain 14
You can brush me off
and i won't bother you
i'll just slip into your past
you can brush me off
say you've had enough
and you won't have to see me again
You can brush me off
and i won't bother you
i'll just slip into your past
you can brush me off
say you've had enough
and you won't have to see me again
Would you believe that i'm sad now
make 'em believe it's not so
could you still see
it's not right now
walking ?? home along ?? road
You can brush me off
Rain 14, rain 14 etc
When Rosemary Smiles
And all the while rosemary smiled
her eyes open wide then her body grew wings
and took off into the sun with invisible ink
She went directly over to the light
pushed it back and screamed for dear life
back in up that's showed the siren people
who will leave first on the train
Sits down amongst the lead and flour tubs
round and round the coil flakes ont o the floor
stucka plays the android as the chorus chants on
it is stark reality taken a little bit too far
So you know Rosemary Vincent too
after the Anniversary Parade
just went yeh-yeh s if they all knew
where she just flew in from
Recalling stories when you shared the same carriage
she said she was a dancer
you could tell from her talk
eyes are open wide so they know her too
long before the quiet town had taken her by storm
And all the while Rosemary smiled
her eyes open wide then her body grew wings
and took off into the sun with invisible ink.
It's My Turn
I'm sorry I can't turn myself on and off like a tap
start acting all humble
now and never know whatcould come back
never known what it's like to be hurt
but still coming round for more
I start believeing the song that God sings
I never thought I ever would
and I wonder how, do I disappear
and let you figure it out so now it's
My Turn
I was warned it would happen
this time has ended with me raining in the rain
or was I over-reacting
I should just forget about you
but I really want to see you again
Just want to give a little attention
it feels so good to see you smile
and I'm not going to change my mind
don't you worry I'll be round for a while
never thought it would be like this
it was never really part of our plan
but here we are just like a crimson couple
with our heads in our hands so now it's
My turn
I was warned it would happen
both times has ended with me raining in the rain
was I getting to o close now
I should just forget about you
but I really want to see you again
Single
I just want to be single
but I want to see you every single day
and he said "I'll see you in October, girl"
and I say "I really wanna see you now"
'Cos if a whole day goes by without thinking of you
there's a hole in my day
and maybe I'll fill it up
with someone else to replace your smile
so I know I'll never be single
even though I tried it for a day
You said I don't like the sentiment
but I'll sing along anyway
I just want to be single, girl
but I wanna see you every single day
And the photo showed it was over
I could see it in your eye
look straight into the camera lens
without a wave goodbye
And if one day goes by without thinking of you
there's a hole in my day
and maybe I'll fill it up
with someone elseto replace your smile
so I know I'll never be single
even though I tried it for a day
I just want to be single
but I want to see you every single day
he said "I'll see you in October, girl"
and I say "I really like to see you now".
Corey
Corey lets his hair down
says he can't believe
that the last two years
fits neatly in a box
in his back seat.
Had to split this morning
nothing to stay for
and the t-shirts that she loved so much
he left beside the door.
What the hey,
oh won't you give me a break
what the hey, c'mon babe
oh won't you give me a break
oh just a break.
Drop Twenty
Divin', to the deep blue sea
what does she see not me,
not me, I'll swim another
sea so far you won't believe
tide's just above me
temperature's set at 3
you'll never leave
Did Jenny ever really go to sleep
that's the question
on everyone's heads this year
And whatever pleases me
will not go down in history
Pushpin
Hey I'm not shy
so I'm gonna ask you for a dance
and I hope it lasts all night
'cause I might not see you ever again
And I heard that you were shy
Pushpin told me just the other night
and I know that can't be true
when you're with me you won't shut up
I do believe I'm as shy as you
And I'd like to kiss you good night
just like I did in my dreams
and I hope it is alright
we could break the rule no one'll know
But I heard that you were shy
Pushpin told me just the other night
and I know that is a lie
from the way that you look at me
I do believe I'm as shy as you.
Seeing Stars (edit)
Blissed Out Clown
Needle Pullng Thread
That Certain Smile
Table For One
Just get it over and done with
tell me you've found someone knew
then I'll stop with all the questions
I'll stop bugging you
I know you don't need a reason
'cause I've been away so long
but dont tell me you love me baby
it's true then I wont come home
Every one of our friends
said we'd get back together
well give me a table for one
'cause they're all wrong
Looks like it really is over
we havent spoken for a year
and your voice is so far away
I can hardly hear you speak
I know you've got a new boyfriend
I read about it in a dream
you got lost in the blue mountains
on a long weekend what a shame.
High Anxiety
Your Ego's Out Of Control
Rock Your Baby
Angela
Angela told me she's an alcoholic
and she wants to die
before she turns twenty five
she doesn't want to get old
Why does she feel like this
and I just want to shower her with gifts
Tells me her home's got a mouse
and her flatmate is stealing her clothes
so how could she resist
the late night screening of
"The Wizard Of Oz"
Why do I even try
cos every time I call
I know she's lying on the floor
phone off the hook
She's gotta stop thinking she's nothing
'cause Angela is everything to me
gotta start believing she's something
Why does she feel like this
and I just want to shower you with gifts
Gotta start believing she's something.
Has She Got Your Time Now?
Make a pretty thing last a long time
if you were a dog you would not be mine
go to school, learn how to follow
light a flame against your eye
I can't see nothing
it's pretty hollow.
Has she got your time now
has she got your time now.
Change the rules and make it all come true
caught in a shower and now your all see through
say nothing becaused you revelled everything
kiss the sand and smother me
take you up to the edge and fall in it
Has she got your time now
has she got your time now
has she got your time now
has she got your time now.
Pinching apples from the tree
something, someone is following
find something and someone to blame
rearange what I thought I had predicted.
Unrequited
She walks up to you like you're grown up now
not so sure yourself but don't get it wrong
then she hears familure news and sits down on the floor
then she starts talking to an old friend
she's not quiet any more
and she's only ???? wandering around here
and with a ?????
I thought she was looking at me
and she turns up unexpectedly
so much so that she's just like a ghost
wouldn't it be silly of me
if I told her everything that I did
wouldn't it be too much for her
if I told her she's the heartbrake kid
sitting close together
I can tell she's heard about me
and how I don't regret
it's what I've done
and not to what am I now
and she turns up unexpectedly
so much so that she's just like a ghost
wouldn't it be silly of me
if I told her everything that I did
wouldn't it be too much for her
if I told her she's the heartbrake kid, kid, kid, kid.
Android
I've drunk you more then I've drunk water
somthing deep inside, I really like the flavour
standing in my ?? scratching in my back
if only we could drive like this forever.
Has anybody told you,
????
and we'll have to get together
and ?? sometime
???? few years
If only we could drive like this forever
and yesterday ?? is always news to me
I never got to know ?? silence you told her
looking like a zombi in my Sony walkman
someone pulled the switch
???
???
???
yesterday's news, kind of hard to believe,
android.

Speak Memory Speak
So i've returned to the town
where i first walked
and talked and ran
and i find the old family home
but which bedroom was i in?
and there's the park i used to
fall asleep just lyin' in the sun
i don't remember what it was
i used to dream
So speak, memory speak
I take a ride to the Metro
where once upon a time
they had movies on
I used to think it was me
on the golden screen
and there's the park where we
used to miss school on Mondays
i don't remember if that was
right or wrong
So speak, memory speak
So i've returned to the town
that now is such a city
so full of light
and i pass the museum on art
which the kids across the road
had burnt down
and there's the park
where we used to
climb trees on Sundays
i don't recall those dizzy heights
So speak, memory speak
