"Still It's Not Over"

"Still It's Not Over"


We crossed our hearts and never hoped to lie
For the ghosts along The Castro were just walking by
We went back to scratch and had to start again
Like a ring of roses everyone was falling down
We made a miracle
We had to come up with a cunning plan
A time for quiet contemplation
Dying on the steps of City Hall
They turned on love and turned their backs
And left us to a sheer attack
And I'm not really pleased with that
And still it's not over
The universe is big enough
And there's room for the two of us
And ignorance it isn't bliss
And words they can't hurt me
They held us all in very low esteem
We had to fight for our right, had to steal the scene
It felt so right to see the rebels run
Because we know that something good was being done
But you never gave a damn
We had to come up with a cunning plan
We were fighting for survival
We had to look the Devil in the eye
They turned on love and turned their backs
And left us to a sheer attack
And I'm not really pleased with that
And still it's not over
The universe is big enough
And there's room for the two of us
And ignorance it isn't bliss
And words they can't hurt me
They turned on love and turned their backs
And left us to a sheer attack
And I'm not really pleased with that
And still it's not over
(And still it's not over)
We made a miracle
Dying on the steps of City Hall
They turned on love and turned their backs
And left us to a sheer attack
And I'm not really pleased with that
And still it's not over
The universe is big enough
And there's room for the two of us
And ignorance it isn't bliss
And words they can't hurt me
They turned on love and turned their backs
And left us to a sheer attack
And I'm not really pleased with that
And still it's not over
The universe is big enough
And there's room for the two of us
And ignorance it isn't bliss
And words they can't hurt me

"Stop"

"Stop"


We'll be together again
I've been waiting for a long time
We're gonna be we're gonna be
Together again
I've been connected to the right line
We'll be together and nobody ain't never
Gonna disconnect us or ever separate us
Or say to us you've got to
Stop!
Stand there where you are
Before you go too far
Before you make a fool out of love
Stop!
Don't jump before you look
Get hung upon a hook
Before you make a fool out of love
We'll be together again
I've been waiting for a long time
We're gonna be we're gonna be
Together again
I've been connected to the right line
We'll be together and nobody ain't never
Gonna disconnect us or ever separate us
Or say to us you've got to
Stop!
Stand there where you are
Before you go too far
Before you make a fool out of love
Stop!
Don't jump before you look
Get hung upon a hook
Before you make a fool out of love
We'll be together and nobody ain't never
Gonna disconnect us or ever separate us
Or say to us you've got to
Stop!
Stand there where you are
Before you go too far
Before you make a fool out of love
Stop!
Don't jump before you look
Get hung upon a hook
Before you make a fool out of love
Stop!
Stand there where you are
Before you go too far
Before you make a fool out of love
Stop!
Don't jump before you look
Get hung upon a hook
Before you make a fool out of love
Stop!
Stand there where you are
Before you go too far
Before you make a fool out of love
Stop!
Don't jump before you look
Get hung upon a hook
Before you make a fool out of love
Stop!

"Stop The Cavalry"

"Stop The Cavalry"


Hey Mr Churchill
Comes over here
To say we're doing splendidly
But it's very cold
Out here in the snow
Marching to and from the enemy
Oh I say it's tough
I have had enough
Can you stop the cavalry?
I have had to fight
Almost every night
Down throughout these centuries
That is when I say
Oh yes, yet again
Can you stop the cavalry?
Mary Bradley waits at home
In the nuclear fallout zone
Wish I could be dancing now
In the arms of the girl I love
Dub-a dub-a dum-dum
Dub-a dub-a dum
Dub-a dum dum dub-a dub
Dub-a dub-a dum
Dub-a dub-a dum-dum
Dub-a dub-a dum
Dub-a dum dum dub-a dub
Dub-a dub-a dum
Wish I was at home for Christmas
Bang goes another bomb
On another town
While the Czar and Jim have tea
If I get home
Live to tell the tale
I'll run for all presidencies
If I get elected I'll stop
I will stop the cavalry
Dub-a dub-a dum-dum
Dub-a dub-a dum
Dub-a dum dum dub-a dub
Dub-a dub-a dum
Dub-a dub-a dum-dum
Dub-a dub-a dum
Dub-a dum dum dub-a dub
Dub-a dub-a dum
Wish I was at home for Christmas
Wish I could be dancing now
In the arms of the girl I love
Mary Bradley waits at home
In the nuclear fallout zone
Wish I was at home for Christmas

"Storm In A Teacup"

"Storm In A Teacup"


I'm just saying
I want my mummy back
Lost her to the drink
But her soul's intact
Mama said to me
Be proud of who you are
She saw Jesus in the eyes
Of a broken man
Sail away
I am learning my lesson
Mama sends her love
And Godspeed you come home soon
One little white lie was enough
To conceal my goodbye
Then I stole away
Kissed her farewell
And wished her the best for life
Then I stole away, woah
Like a thief in the night
I'm just saying
Not behind daddy's back
He takes care of her
In his overtime
He's no saint I know
As he goes around the town
Watch him cry himself to sleep
He's my daddy
Sail away
I will go it alone now
Leave my past behind
To seek fortune and fame
One little white lie was enough
To conceal my goodbye
Then I stole away
Kissed her farewell
And wished her the best for life
Then I stole away, woah
Like a thief in the night
Sail away
There's a storm in a teacup
Mama sends her love
And Godspeed you come home
One little white lie was enough
To conceal my goodbye
Then I stole away
Kissed her farewell
And wished her the best for life
Then I stole away, woah
Like a thief in the night
One little white lie was enough
To conceal my goodbye
Then I stole away
Like a prodigal son
And wished her the best for life
Then I stole away, woah
Like a thief in the night

"Sucker For Love"

"Sucker For Love"


I'm a sucker for love
All that's artificial
Sometimes below
The belt I hit you

For without love
Hell freezes over
And wherever you go searching
Know I'll want some

Give me back my calling cards and vices
My dignity and romance novels too

The love we have
Is for the better now
The love we have
Is for the better now
The love we have
Is for the better now
The love we have
Is for the better now

If you wanna know the truth
I'm feeling open ended
For without love
I'm not tremendous

The world we share
It's not pretending
And whenever you go AWOL
Know I'll be there

Give me back the photographs I sent you
My residence and cool emotion too

The love we have
Is for the better now
The love we have
Is for the better now
The love we have
Is for the better now
The love we have
Is for the better now

You gotta ride
Ride, ride, ride

The love we have
Is for the better now
The love we have
Is for the better now
The love we have
Is for the better now
The love we have
Is for the better now

The love we have
Is for the better now
The love we have
Is for the better now
The love we have
Is for the better now
The love we have
Is for the better now

"Sunday Girl"

"Sunday Girl"


Blinded by the vision
I turn and face my back to the wall
'Cause I'm locked up in a rhythm
The prism of a big glitter ball

Wrapped around your finger
I'm caught up in the middle with you baby
With some laughter and drinking
There's very little else I can do

Then I go and drop a bombshell upon you
I've been making eyes at somebody else
You're no longer number one

She loves the night
And all that glitters
Her name in lights
Around the city
Don't you mess your life up Sunday girl

You're rushing down
Like a rollercoaster
Night on the town
Gonna make the most of
We can dance 'til Sunday morning girl

You're pushing and a-shoving me baby
Like a bitch to the wall
But you're driving me crazy
Right up to fever pitch I could fall

When you shine down your love light
I'm getting blinded by the sights and sounds

She loves the night
And all that glitters
Her name in lights
Around the city
Don't you mess your life up Sunday girl

I will see you
I will get you
I will see you
I will get you
I will see you
I will get you
Then I go and drop a bombshell upon you
I've been making eyes at somebody baby
You're no longer number one

She loves the night
And all that glitters
Her name in lights
Around the city
Don't you mess your life up Sunday girl

You're rushing down
Like a rollercoaster
Night on the town
Gonna make the most of
We can dance 'til Sunday morning
We can dance 'til Sunday morning
We can dance 'til Sunday morning girl

"Supernature"

"Supernature"


Once upon a time
Science opened up the door
We would feed the hungry fields
Till they couldn't eat no more
But the potions that we made
Touched the creatures down below
And they grew up in a way
That we'd never seen before
Supernature, supernature
Supernature, supernature
They were angry with the man
Who couldn't change their way of life
And they take that sweet revenge
As they trampled through the night
For hundred miles or more
You could hear the people cry
But there's nothing you can do
Even God is on their side (God is on their, God is on their, God is on their side)
Supernature, supernature
Supernature, supernature
The gods will break the ice
And throw it in the air
The creatures will decide
Who goes where
How can I explain
Things are different today
Darkness all around
No one makes a sound
Such a sad affair
No one seems to care
Supernature, supernature
Supernature, supernature
Better watch out
There's no way to stop it now
You can't escape
It's too late
Look what you've done
There's no place that you can run
The monsters made
We must pay
Maybe nature has a plan
To control the ways of man
He must start from scratch again
Many battles must he win
Till he earns his place on earth
Like the other creatures do
Will there be a happy end
Now that all depends on you
Supernature, supernature
Supernature, supernature
Supernature, supernature
Supernature, supernature
Supernature, supernature
Supernature, Supernature
Supernature, Supernature
Supernature, Supernature

"Surreal"

"Surreal"


On your own, when it all goes wrong
Like you're in gaol
Torn in two, threw the blame at you
Nightmare prevails

There is no guarantee
One crazy heart like me
Should I go curl up and die?

Surreal
Precious time is slipping away
Reveal
Don't go wishing your life away
The wheel
Of fortune keeps spinning on anyway
A steal
Precious time is running away

One line folds, and the next strikes gold
Finds me in gaol
Tried to run, gotta buy me some
Free time and bail

There is no guarantee
Fool for a hangman's tree
Should I go curl up and die?

Surreal
Precious time is slipping away
Reveal
Don't go wishing your life away
The wheel
Of fortune keeps on spinning anyway
A steal
Precious time is running away

There is no guarantee
One crazy fool like me
Should I go curl up and die?

Surreal
Precious time is slipping away
Reveal
Don't go wishing your life away
The wheel
Of fortune keeps on spinning anyway
A steal
Precious time is running away

Surreal
Precious time is slipping away
Reveal
Don't go wishing your life away
The wheel
Of fortune keeps on spinning anyway
A steal
Precious time is running away

Surreal
Precious time is slipping away
Reveal
Don't go wishing your life away
The wheel
Of fortune keeps on spinning anyway
A steal
Precious time is running away

"Sweet Summer Loving"

"Sweet Summer Loving"


I was feeling down had lost my lust for life
'Til I caught a glimpse of you that night
Never knew how much things were about to change
Saw you in the corner of my mind

You show me there's more to life
There's gotta be more to life
Gotta count our blessings from the universe

Sweet summer loving
Baby you're the best thing that ever happened to me
Baby you're the best thing
Baby you're a blessing
Baby you're the best thing that ever happened to me
A breeze on the body
Baby come and get me I got the blues for you
Baby you're the best thing
Baby you're a blessing
Baby you're the greatest thing

How did you rekindle my breathless flame
Memories that cut me like a knife
Time will heal the wounds they say you know it's true
You gave me room to build my faith in you

There's gotta be more than this
There's gotta be more than that
It's been a long time coming
Baby here you are

Sweet summer loving
Baby you're the best thing that ever happened to me
Baby you're the best thing
Baby you're a blessing
Baby you're the greatest thing

I won't try to bring you down
Don't worry I ain't gonna let you baby
I won't try to bring you down
Don't worry you ain't gonna let me baby

Sweet summer loving
Baby you're the best thing that ever happened to me
Baby you're the best thing
Baby you're a blessing
Baby you're the greatest thing

Sweet summer loving
Baby you're the best thing that ever happened to me
Baby you're the best thing
Baby you're a blessing
Baby you're the best thing that ever happened to me
A breeze on the body
Baby come and get me I got the blues for you
Baby you're the best thing
Baby you're a blessing
Baby you're the greatest thing

"Sweet Surrender"

"Sweet Surrender"


All the miles of glory really nothing to me
It's our love here, we are invisble again
Imagine how it goes, I believe in sweet surrender
And searching for so long, it will stay with me forever

No, I won't ever ask for your surrender
No religion and choruses again
But it won't leave me desolate and angry
Are there no poets in politics again

See the window upon the free world closing slowly
And poor men crawl upon your boney knees again
Imagine how it goes, I believe in sweet surrender
And searching for so long, it will stay with me forever

No, I won't ever ask for your surrender
Holy roller and passion play again
On this day that I don't care to remember
No religion and choruses again

Imagine how it goes, I believe in sweet surrender

I feel lost as a dying rose in embers
No religion and choruses again
No, I won't ever ask for your surrender
Are there no poets in politics again

No, I won't ever ask for your surrender
Holy roller and passion play again
On this day that I don't care to remember
No religion and choruses again
