LA DI DA
How come every time we meet
You get lots of little people running round at your feet
You're the centre of attention in the cafes and the bars
Everybody treats you like a superstar
Then again I know who you are
You're taking it too far
Wild nights and parties in the hills of Hollywood
And all the papers tell me that you're doing pretty good
They tell me the way you hang round
With the guys in their leathers and chains
The way you eat your way into their little brains
Then again, I know who you are
You've gone a bit too far
You're so la di da
So la di da
Honey you're so la di da
You're so la di da
Why don't you listen to me?
You're so la di da
You're so la di da
Oh baby you're so la di da
Oh baby why do you keep on hurting me?
Why don’t you listen to me?
I used to think you were mine
And you would tell me what's going on in your mind
You'd say I've got problems that I don’t understand
And if you’ve got the answers will you put them in my hand
I'd say you went a bit too far
Do you know what you are?
You're so la di da
So la di da
Honey you're so la di da
You're so la di da
Why don't you listen to me?
You're so la di da
You're so la di da
Oh baby you're so la di da
You're so la di da
Why do you do it to me?
Breaking me inside
You're so la di da

DIGITAL DAYDREAM BLUES
I feel that something is going wrong
Lost in the darkness we're heading for a storm
Is it an illusion?
Why should I care, this silicon fusion is everywhere
I see a problem, no contact here
Caught in a slipstream with nobody near
Is it a solution? To swim or to drown?
Digital daydreams are bringing me down
Down
Somebody to talk to, I need somebody to talk to
Got to have somebody to walk to, I need somebody to talk to
I fidget all day, I've got those digital daydream blues
Video, TV, it's company
It's not the real thing but it's easy to see
Is it an illusion?
It's relative to me, this logical limbo is fantasy
I see the people, they're empty, don't see
No rhyme, no reason, no vacancy
Is it an illusion? But when the chips are down
Digital daydreamers won't be around
Down. Down.
Somebody to talk to, I need somebody to talk to
Got to have somebody to walk to, I need somebody to talk to
I fidget all day, I've got those digital daydream blues
Give me somebody to talk to
I want somebody to walk to
Talk to me babe

WHAT AM I GONNA DO
What am I gonna do?
If I could only change a few of the rules
Would you believe me, when I say that I do?
Seems like I've been on the road too long
Tell me how I believe
When you're always somewhere just out of reach
I can't believe that this could happen to me
I never felt anything so strong
I hear say, home is where the heart is
Show me where the heart is
Maybe we can lay back
Baby, baby let me take you home
What am I gonna do
What am I gonna do about you, about you
Days seem to be the same
Seeking out the ways of fortune and fame
Waiting for the day I see you again
Tell me why should I wait so long?
How can I make you see
All I want is you to be next to me
Hold you in my arms so easily
What am I gonna do
What am I gonna do about you, about you
I hear say, home is where the heart is
Show me where the heart is
Maybe we can lay back
Baby, baby let me take you home
What am I gonna do
What am I gonna do about you, about you

KEEPING IT FROM THE TROOPS
Last night when the stars were gleaming
And everybody was peacefully sleeping
Through the moonlight I could see somebody stealing away
Followed him down to the casbah
Where the night's a fever
And it's no place for a non-believer
It's Captain Anderson, he's a deceiver yeah
I'll be keeping it from the troops, just where he's at
I'll be keeping it to myself, till I hit back
In the desert where the sands are burning
I see him smile as he watches them squirming
With Captain Anderson there'll be no returning
Now it's another day, another village to plunder
Down into battle, where it sounds like thunder
With Captain Anderson there's no going under, yeah
I'll be keeping it from the troops to stay alive
And I'll be keeping it to myself, if I should survive
I saw them giving him money
I saw them put it in his hand
And there's one thing that you'd better understand
Captain Anderson's a killer,
A traitor in a foreign land
And those who know will end up buried in the sand
Another night with the stars for a ceiling
And all around I hear the wailing and weeping
How many nights can he go without sleeping?
Maybe tonight, maybe before daybreak
He'll fall asleep and I'll make sure he never wakes
I've got to do it
Got to do it, for God's sake, yeah
I'll be keeping it from the troops until the break of day
And I'll be keeping to myself till I'm far awy
Keeping it from the troops
Keeping it from the troops
Keeping it from the troops

LOVE TODAY
Who are they, who would disagree?
I say life today can be misery
Who are they who wouldn't understand
Love today needs a
I said love today needs a helping hand
Where's the one, gonna light the fire
Burn the past on a funeral pyre
I said who are they? Every woman and man
Love today needs a
I said love today needs a helping hand
Love's the one, fill you with desire
Come on, let's get a little high
Come on baby, give me all you can
Love today needs a
Said love today needs a helping hand
Who will come to love's rescue?
Tell ya, time is here, let's start anew
Love's the one, let's make a stand
Love today needs a
Love today needs a helping hand
Who will come to light the way
Time is now, don't let it fade away
Love's the one you understand
Love today needs a
Said love today needs a helping hand

LOSIN' YOU
Well this is something that I really have to say
Although you never really listen anyway
You're making me lonely even when you're here
I never thought I'd see the day you didn't care
Do you remember when it started we were friends?
You knew you'd get it if you wanted anything
Cos you gave me reason I gave you everything
I took it for granted you'd always stay with me
All I wanted was the promise of your love
Losin' you, babe, I'm losin' you
You don’t know what I've been going through
What am I supposed to do, I'm losin' you
You gave me reason, I gave you everything
All I wanted was the promise of your love
Losin' you, babe, I'm losin' you
You don’t know what I've been going through
What am I supposed to do, I'm losin' you
I'm losin' you, I'm losin' you
I'm losin' you, I'm losin' you

DREAMIN'
You say that if you found a place in the game
How you be different, how you would change
Still dreamin' after all these years
And if you didn’t have the heartache and pain
How you'd be happy, but you'd be the same
Still lonely, lonely after all these
Years that you once had, won't come back again
Only dreamin', lost in your memory
I just had to say
You do your best to make me think you're insane
You try and hurt me again and again
Still trying, trying to deny those tears
Trying after all these years
That you once had, won't come back again
Only dreamin', lost in your memory
I just had to say
You're only dreamin'
Dreams that you once had, won't come back again
You're only dreamin'
Lost in an ocean with no one
So if you never find a place in the game
I'll sing it to you, it's the same refrain
No crying, no more crying lonely tears
Happy after all these
Years that you once had, won't come back again
Lost in your memory, I just had to say
You're only dreamin'
Dreams that you once had, won't come back again
You're only dreamin'
Lost in an ocean with no one to say
You're only dreamin'

NO FAVOURS - NO WAY
There was a time when my intentions were good
Do anything if you give me your love
But you kept me hanging on the end of the line
Now you want me too but you're so far behind
Don't waste your time
Life had its ups, I had my downs
Do anything just to keep you around
But you, you had me crazy, going out of my mind
Now I'm on to you,
So please don't waste my time
You're out of line
Oh baby don’t do me no favours now no way
You'll need me sooner or later,
Cos it's later than you think
Oh baby don’t do me no favours now no way
You'll need me sooner or later, cos it's later.
About a million people or so wouldn't understand
But I know
That mask you're wearing is hiding a lie
All the bitterness inside
All the things you put me through
I gave you love but I was a fool
Then you took it all but it was nothing to you
When I came to my senses
You gave me a sign that you want me too
But you'll be wasting your time
Please don’t waste time
Oh baby don’t do me no favours now no way
You'll need me sooner or later, cos it's later.
