"Kiss Me"

"Kiss Me"


[Stephen Duffy cover]

In my young life I have received
Callers though they were Christmas Eve
I'm disappointed and I don't know why
She gave me laughter and hope
And a sock in the eye.

In my young life I know something now.
I've never tried to create a wow
Wows are few frustration more common
Now I can feel it in my soul
That's why I gave the come on.

Kiss me with your mouth
Your love is better than wine
Kiss me with your mouth
Your love is better than wine
But wine is all I have
Will your love ever be mine?

Faces fall before my feet
Like blood onto a clean white sheet
When I grow old I won't forget
To innocence my only debt

Wow I feel so fresh today
Barefoot in the snow to make love in the hay
The stars are bright in the abyss
Now I can feel you in my arms
I explode inside your kiss.

Kiss me with your mouth
Your love is better than wine
But wine is all I have
Will your love ever be mine?

Kiss me with your mouth
Your love is better than wine
Kiss me with your mouth
Your love is better than wine
But wine is all I have
Will your love ever be mine?

"Knutsford City Limits"

"Knutsford City Limits"


You said I was northern scum
I was wounded baby
That's fighting talk where I'm from
And I'm not moving baby
Spent my life dancing with shadows in strobe lights
It's alright, everything mellows in sunlight

And now London's got its gimmicks
And New York's had its minute
But Knutsford City limits
I'll never change

I've been running nearly all my life
It left me broken baby
When the meter ran out on life
I used my tokens lady
Spent my life dancing with shadows in strobe lights
Now it's alright, everything mellows in sunlight

And now London's got its gimmicks
And New York's had its minute
But Knutsford City limits
I'll never change

London's got its gimmicks
And New York's had its minute
But Knutsford City limits
I'll never change

I've been running nearly all my life
It left me broken baby
When the meter ran out on life
I used my tokens lady
You said I was Northern scum
I was wounded baby
That's fighting talk where I'm from
And I'm not moving baby

London's got its gimmicks
And New York's had its minute
But Knutsford City limits
I'll never change

Saw one transmission
On the television
Saying I can't do my job
Well I just kept dancing
Don't hate me 'cause I'm handsome
And the beat will never stop

Saw one transmission
On the television
Saying I can't do my job
Well I just keep dancing
Don't hate me 'cause I'm handsome
And the beat will never stop

"Kooks"

"Kooks"


Will you stay in our lover's story
If you stay you won't be sorry
Cos we believe in you
Soon you'll grow so take a chance
With a couple of Kooks hung up on romancing

We bought a lot of things to keep you warm and dry
A funny old crib on which the paint won't dry
I bought you a pair of shoes
A trumpet you can blow and a book of rules
Of what to say to people when they pick on you
Cos if you stay with us you're gonna be pretty
Kooky too

Won't you stay in our lover's story
If you stay you won't be sorry
Cos we believe in you
Soon you'll grow so take a chance
With a couple of Kooks hung up on romancing

If you ever have to go to school
Remember how they messed up this old fool
Don't pick fights with the bullies or the cads
I'm not much cop at fighting other people's dads
And if the homework brings you down
Then we'll throw it on the fire
And take the car down town

Won't you stay in our lover's story
If you stay you won't be sorry
Cos we believe in you
Soon you'll grow so take a chance
With a couple of Kooks hung up on romancing

Won't you stay in our lover's story
If you stay you won't be sorry
Cos we believe in you
Soon you'll grow so take a chance
With a couple of Kooks hung up on romancing

"Last Days Of Disco"

"Last Days Of Disco"


Stand by me, I've been stood by you for ages
Stay calm and carry on
Maybe nothing's wrong
Is it the comfort of, dis-information or
Is it the freedom that you fear
Said I’m the angel of liberation, love
For a second I believe her

I’m all you’ll hear, ahhhhh
While you’re here, ahhhhh

Don't call it a comeback
Look what I invented here,
I thought it was easy
They can't take it away from us,
The last days of disco

All raved out, bitter is the pill of devotion
Read between the noise, all you disco boys
The fascination of,
A boy and girl in love,
For a second I could see that
In the mir above,
The human animal or a creature that I feel

I'm all your here
While you're here
Don't call it a comeback
Look what I invented here,
I thought it was easy
They can't take it away from us,
The last days of disco
The last days of disco
The last days of disco

I'm all your here
While you're here
Don't call it a comeback,
We'll hold an event in here
This space is beautiful
I'll decide when it is over
So don't call it a comeback,
Look what I invented here
I thought it was easy
They cant take it away from us,
The last days of disco,
The last days of disco,
The last days of disco..

"Let Love Be Your Energy"

"Let Love Be Your Energy"


Out of a million seeds
Only the strongest one breathes
You made a miracle mother
I'll make a man out of me

Daddy where's the sun gone from the sky?
What did we do wrong, why did it die?
And all the grown ups say 'sorry kids we got no reply'

If you're willing to change the world
Let love be your energy
I've got more than I need
When your love shines down on me

Every tear that you cry
Will be replaced when you die
Why don't you love your brother?
Are you out of your mind?

Daddy where's the sun gone from the sky
What did we do wrong, why did it die
And if you've got no love for me then I'll say goodbye

If you're willing to change the world
Let love be your energy
I've got more than I need
When your love shines down on me

If you're willing to change the world
Let love be your energy
I can't contain how I feel
When your love shines down on me
Well if you want it come and make a stance
So when it's in your hands
People show me love

Well if you want it come and make a stance
So when it's in your hands
People show me love

If you're willing to change the world
Let love be your energy
I got more than I need
When your love shines down on me

If you're willing to change the world
Let love be your energy
I can't contain how I feel
When your love shines down on me

"Let Me Entertain You"

"Let Me Entertain You"


Hell is gone and heaven's here
There's nothing left for you to fear
Shake your arse come over here
Now scream
I'm a burning effigy
Of everything I used to be
You're my rock of empathy, my dear

So come on let me entertain you
Let me entertain you

Life's too short for you to die
So grab yourself an alibi
Heaven knows your mother lied
Mon cher
Separate your right from wrongs
Come and sing a different song
The kettle's on so don't be long
Mon cher

So come on let me entertain you
Let me entertain you

Look me up in the yellow pages
I will be your rock of ages
Your see through fads and your crazy phrases yeah
Little Bo Peep has lost his sheep
He popped a pill and fell asleep
The dew is wet but the grass is sweet, my dear
Your mind gets burned with the habits you've learned
But we're the generation that's got to be heard
You're tired of your teachers and your school's a drag
You're not going to end up like your mum and dad

So come on let me entertain you
Let me entertain you
Let me entertain you
He may be good he may be outta sight
But he can't be here so come around tonight
Here is the place where the feeling grows
You gotta get high before you taste the lows
So come on
Let me entertain you
Let me entertain you
So come on let me entertain me
Let me entertain you
Come on come on come on come on

"Life Thru A Lens"

"Life Thru A Lens"


Wake up on Sunday morning
And everything feels so boring
Is that where it ends
With your life thru a lens

Hair is the new hat, brown is the new black
She shouldn't wear this, he shouldn't wear that
Pleasure at leisure make mine a double measure with friends
Fashion tardis down at Que Vadis
Who laughs the longest who drives the hardest
Pleasure at leisure make mine a double measure with friends

Just because I ain't double barrelled
Don't mean I haven't travelled well
Can't you tell!
Oh now it's quite appalling
Your conversation is boring as hell, oh well!

Wake up on Sunday morning
And everything feels so boring
Is that where it ends
With your life thru a lens
And now your boyfriend's suspicious
So go home and wash the dishes
And wash them well so he can't tell

She's looking real drab just out of rehab
I'm talking football she's talking ab fab
Your clothes are very kitch
Just because your daddy is rich
You sound so funny with your voice all plummy
Now your cheque's just bounced better run to your mummy
And you know it's a class act she'll never ask for it back

Just because I ain't double barelled
Don't mean I haven't travelled well
Can't you tell!
Mix with the local gentry and don't crash Tarquin's Bentley
I'll take the bends with our life thru a lens
You're scared of the poor and needy
Is that why you're all inbreedy?
They're just like you, they need love too

Wake up on Sunday morning
And everything feels so boring
Is that where it ends
With your life thru a lens
And now your boyfriend's suspicious
So go home and wash the dishes
And wash them well so he can't tell

"Little Green Apples"
(feat. Kelly Clarkson)

"Little Green Apples"
(feat. Kelly Clarkson)



Well, I wake up in the morning
With my hair down in my eyes
And she says hi
And I hurry to the breakfast table
While the kids are going off to school, goodbye
And she reaches out and takes my hand
And squeezes it and says "how you feelin' Hon?"
And I look across at smiling lips that warms my heart
And I see my morning sun
And if that's not loving me
Then all I've got to say

God didn't make little green apples
And it don't rain in Indianapolis in the summertime
There's no such thing as Dr. Suess
Disneyland and Mother Goose, no nursery rhyme
God didn't make little green apples
And it don't rain in Indianapolis in the summertime
And when my self is feeling low
I think about your face aglow and ease my mind

Sometimes I call him up knowing he's busy
And ask if he could get away and meet me
And maybe grab a bite to eat
And he drops what he's doing and hurry's down to meet me
And I'm always late
He sits waiting patiently and smiles when he first sees me
Because he's made that way
And if that's not loving me
Then all I've got to say

God didn't make little green apples
And it don't snow in Indianapolis when the winter comes
There's no such thing as make believe
Puppy dogs and autumn leaves, no B.B. guns
God didn't make little green apples
And it don't rain in Indianapolis in the summertime
And when my self is feeling low
I think about your face aglow and ease my mind

"Lola"

"Lola"


I met her in a club down in old Soho
Where you drink champagne and it tastes just like cherry-cola
C-O-L-A cola
She walked up to me and she asked me to dance
And when I asked her her name, in a dark brown voice she said Lola
L-O-L-A Lola lo-lo-lo-lo Lola
Oh!

Well I'm not the world's most physical guy
But when she squeezed me tight she nearly broke my spine
Oh my Lola, lo-lo-lo-lo Lola
Well I'm not dumb but I can't understand
Why she walked like a woman and talked like a man
Oh my Lola, lo-lo-lo-lo Lola lo-lo-lo-lo Lola

Well we drank champagne and danced all night
Under electric candlelight
She picked me up and sat me on my knee
And said dear boy won't you come home with me
I'm not the world's most passionate guy
When I looked in her eyes, I almost fell for my Lola
Lo-lo-lo-lo Lola, lo-lo-lo-lo Lola
Lola, lo-lo-lo-lo Lola, L-O-L-A Lola

Well I pushed her away
I walked to the door
I fell to the floor
I got down on my knees
Then I looked at her and she at me

Well that's the way that I want it to stay
And I always want it to be that way for my Lola
Lo-lo-lo-lo Lola
Girls will be boys and boys will be girls
It's a mixed up muddled up shook up world except for Lola
Lo-lo-lo-lo Lola

Well I left home just a week before
I never ever kissed a woman before
But Lola smiled and took me by the hand
And said dear boy I'm gonna make you a man

Well I'm not the world's most masculine man
But I know what I am and I'm glad I'm a man
And so is Lola
Lo-lo-lo-lo Lola, L-O-L-A Lola
Lola, L-O-L-A Lola, L-O-L-A Lola
Lola, Lo-lo-lo-lo Lola, Lo-lo-lo-lo Lola
Lola, Lo-lo-lo-lo Lola, Lo-lo-lo-lo Lola
Lola, Lo-lo-lo-lo Lola, Lo-lo-lo-lo Lola
Lola, Lo-lo-lo-lo Lola, Lo-lo-lo-lo Lola

So why am I feeling the cold?
Bah-um
Bah-um

Not surprising
Something has fallen from the fold

Lonestar rising
God only knows where I’ll go

Oh what timing
And how blue is the tone
Bah-um

Seems like I was always drunk
I lost myself in someone’s song
And when all is said and done
I only wanna feel the sun
Bah-um

Every others passed to remind of the time
All the lovers
Living in limbo divine
Bah-um

Every reason
Has every reason to go

All the seasons melt into one like the snow
Bah-um

Seems like I was always drunk
I lost myself in someone’s song
And when all is said and done
I only wanna feel the sun

Bah-um
No sensation
Not even tears rolling down
Bah-um

Conversation
Echoes like ghosts on the town
Bah-um

Lonestar rising

God only knows where I’ll go

Oh what timing
And how blue is the tone

Seems like I was always drunk
