I live my life in the city and there's no easy way out
The day's moving just too fast for me
I need some time in the sunshine I've gotta slow it right down
The day's moving just too fast for me
I live my life for the stars that shine
People say it's just a waste of time
Then they said I should feed my head
That to me was just a day in bed
I'll take my car and drive real far
They're not concerned about the way we are
In my mind my dreams are real
Now you concerned about the way I feel
Tonight I'm a rock n roll star
I live my life in the city and there's no easy way out
The day is moving just too fast for me
I need some time in the sunshine I've gotta slow it right down
The day's moving just too fast for me
I live my life for the stars that shine
People say it's just a waste of time
Then they said I should feed my head
But that to me was just a day in bed
I'll take my car and drive real far
They're not concerned about the way we are
In my mind my dreams are real
Now you concerned about the way I feel
Tonight I'm a rock n roll star
You not doubt, If you right out, looking to your and own, in my hands,
tonight
Tonight I'm a rock n roll star
(Is just rock n roll?)
Shakermaker (5:11)
I'd like to be somebody else and not know where I've been
I'd like to build myself a house out of plasticine
Ah, ah, shake along with me
I've been driving in my car with my friend Mr. Soft
Mr. Clean and Mr. Ben are living in my loft
Ah, ah, shake along with me
I'm sorry but I just don't know
I know you said I told you so
When you're happy and you're feeling fine
Then you'll know that it's the right time
Then you'll know that it's the right time
To shake along with me, to shake along with me
Mister Sifter sold me songs when I was just sixteen
Now he stops at traffic lights but only when they're green
Ah, ah shake along with me
Shake along with me
Shake along with gum
Shake along with me
Live Forever (4:38)
Maybe I don't really want to know how your garden grows, 'cos I just
want to fly
Lately did you ever feel the pain in the morning rain as it soaks it to
the bone?
Maybe I just wanna fly, want to live I don't want to die
Maybe I just want to breath, maybe I just don't believe
Maybe you're the same as me, we see things they'll never see
You and I we're gonna live forever
I said maybe, I don't really want to know how your garden grows, 'cos I
just want to fly
Lately did you ever feel the pain in the morning rain as it soaks it to
the bone?
Maybe I will never be all the things that I want to be
Now is not the time to cry, now's the time to find out why
I think you're the same as me, we see things they'll never see
You and I we're gonna live forever
We're gonna live forever, gonna live forever
Up In The Sky (4:28)
Hey you! up in the sky learning to fly
Tell me how high do you think you'll go before you start falling?
Hey you! up in a tree you wanna be me well that couldn't be
'Cos the people here they don't hear you calling
How does it feel when you're inside me?
Hey you! wearing the crown making no sound, I heard you feel down
Well, that's too bad, welcome to my world
Hey you! stealing the light, I heard that the shine's, gone out of your
life
Well that's just too bad, welcome to my world
How does it feel when you're inside me?
You'll need assistance with the things that you have never ever seen
It's just a case of never breathing out before you've breathed it in
How does it feel when you're inside me?
(I can feel you, Can you feel me?)
Hey you! up in the sky learning to fly
Tell me how high do you think you'll go before you start falling
Hey you! up in a tree you wanna be me well that couldn't be
'Cos the people here they don't hear you calling
How does it feel when you're inside me?
Columbia (6:17)
There we were, now here we are
All this confusion, nothing is the same to me
There we were, now here we are
All this confusion, nothing is the same to me
I can't tell you the way I feel
Because the way I feel is also new to me
I can't tell you the way I feel
Because the way I feel is also new to me
What I heard is not what I hear
I can see the signs but they're not very clear
What I heard is not what I hear
I can see the signs but they're not very clear
This is confusion, am I confusing you?
This is confusion, am I abusing you?
This is confusion, We don't want to feel you
This is confusion, am I confusing you?
Supersonic (4:44)
I need to be myself, I can't be no one else
I'm feeling supersonic, give me gin and tonic
You can have it all but how much do you want it?
You make me laugh, give me your autograph
Can I ride with you in your B.M.W?
You can sail with me, in my yellow submarine
You need to find out, ('cos) no one's gonna tell you what I'm on about
You need to find a way for what you want to say, but before tomorrow
'Cos my friend said he'd take you home, he sits in a corner all alone
He lives under a waterfall, nobody can see him
Nobody can ever hear him call
You need to be yourself, you can't be no one else
I know a girl called Elsa, she's into Alka Seltzer
She sniffs it through a cane on a supersonic train
And she makes me laugh, I've got her autograph
She've done it with a doctor on a helicopter
She's sniffin in her tissue, sellin' the Big Issue
And when she finds out, none's gonna tell her what I'm on about
You need to find a way for what you wanna say, but before tomorrow
'Cos my friend said he'd take you home, he sits in a corner all alone
He lives under a waterfall, nobody can see him
Nobody can ever hear him call, nobody can ever hear him call
Bring It On Down (4:17)
What was that sound ringing around your brain?
Today was just a blur, you've gotta head like a ghost train
What was that sound ringing around your brain?
You're here on your own, who you gonna find to blame?
You're the outcast, you're the underclass
But you don't care, because you're living fast
You're the un-invited guest who stays 'til the end
I know you've got a problem that the devil sent
You think they're talking 'bout you but you don't know who
I'll be scraping your life from the soul of my shoe tonight
Bring it on down, bring it down for me
Your head is in a fish tank, your body and your mind can't breath
You're the outcast, you're the underclass
But you don't care, because you're living fast
You're the un-invited guest who stays 'til the end
I know you've got a problem that the devil sent
You think they're talking 'bout you but you don't know who
I'll be scraping your life from the soul of my shoe tonight
Cigarettes & Alcohol (4:50)
Is it my imagination or have I finally found something worth living for
I was looking for some action but all I found was cigarettes and alcohol
You can wait for a lifetime to spend your days in the sunshine
You might as well do the white line 'cos when it comes on top...
You've gotta make it happen!
Is it worth the aggravation to find yourself a job when there's nothing
worth working for
It's a crazy situation but all I need are cigarettes and alcohol
You can wait for a lifetime to spend your days in the sunshine
You might as well do the white line 'cos when it comes on top...
You've gotta make it happen!
You've gotta, You've gotta, You've gotta make it
Digsy's Diner (2:32)
What a life it would be if you could come to mine for tea
I'll pick you up at half past three we'll have lasagne
I'll treat you like a queen, I'll give you strawberries and cream
Then your friends will all go green for my lasagne
These could be the best days of our lives
But I don't think we've been living very wise
Oh no, no
What a life it would be if you could come to mine for tea
I'll pick you up at half past three we'll have lasagne
These could be the best days of our lives
But I don't think we've been living very wise
I said oh no, no
What a life it would be if you could come to mine for tea
I'll pick you up at half past three we'll have lasagne
I'll treat you like a queen, I'll give you strawberries and cream
Then your friends will all go green
For my lasagne
Slide Away (6:32)
Slide away and give it all you've got
My today fell in from the top
I dream of you and all the things you say
I wonder where you are now
Hold me down all the world's asleep
I need you now you've knocked me off my feet
I dream of you and we talk of growing old
But you said please don't
Slide in baby together we'll fly
I've tried praying but I don't know what you're saying to me
Now that you're mine we'll find a way of chasing the sun
Let me be the one who shines with you in the morning we don't know what
to do
Two of a kind we'll find a way to do what we've done
Let me be the one who shines with you and we can slide away
Slide away, slide away, away
Slide away give it all you've got
My today fell in from the top
I dream of you and all the things you say
I wonder where you are now
Slide in baby together we'll fly
I've tried praying and I know just what you're saying to me
Now that you're mine we'll find a way of chasing the sun
Let me be the one who shines with you in the morning we don't know what
to do
Two of a kind we'll find a way to do what we've done
Oh, Let me be the one who shines with you and we can slide away
Slide away, slide away...
Wonder where you are now, wonder where you are now
Huuuuu, huuuuuu, huuuuu, huuuuuu
Don't know, don't care, all you have to do is take me there...
Take me there, take me there...
Slide away
Married With Children (3:12)
There's no need for you to say you're sorry
Goodbye, I'm going home
I don't care no more so don't you worry
Goodbye, I'm going home
I hate the way that even though you know you're wrong you say you're
right
I hate the books you read and all your friends
Your music's shite, it keeps me up all night, up all night
There's no need for you to say you're sorry
Goodbye, I'm going home
I don't care no more so don't you worry
Goodbye, I'm going home
I hate the way that you are so sarcastic and you're not very bright
You think that everything you've done's fantastic
Your music's shite, it keeps me up all night, up all night
And it will be nice to be alone for a week or two
But I know then I will be right back here with you, with you...
There's no need for you to say you're sorry
Goodbye, I'm going home
I don't care no more so don't you worry
Goodbye, I'm going home
