"Starstruck"

"Starstruck"


You laugh at us we're different
And we laugh 'cause
You're all the same
By the look on your face baby
We've been enjoying ourselves again.

I know that you cry
I know why you try so hard.

Ready steady go,
Everybody famous
Everyone you know,
Why'd it take you ages.

I don't have to listen
Read love like you
I've got no problem with
The physical minimal real life
Living in histerica for everybody's betterment
Isn't it a miracle, everybody's starstruck.

I guess the odds are very good
But the goods are very odd
And even though I talk with the Devil
I only made the deal with God.

I am alarmist
Knock one off the wrist, so hard.

Ready steady go,
Everybody famous
Everyone you know,
Why'd it take you ages.

I don't have to listen
Read love like you
I've got no problem with
The physical minimal real life
Living in histerica for everybody's betterment
Isn't it a miracle, everybody's starstruck.

You want me to stop,
But you can't, can you?
I was lovely on the way up,
On the way up.

Ready steady go,
Everybody famous
Everyone you know,
Why'd it take you ages.

I don't have to listen
Read love like you
I've got no problem with
The physical minimal real life
Living in histerica for everybody's betterment
Isn't it a miracle, everybody's starstruck.

Ready steady go...

I don't have to listen
Read love like you
I've got no problem with
The physical minimal real life
Living in histerica for everybody's betterment
Isn't it a miracle, everybody's starstruck.

Ready steady go.

"Straighten Up And Fly Right"

"Straighten Up And Fly Right"


A buzzard took a monkey for a ride in the air,
The monkey thought that everything
was on the square.
The buzzard tried to throw the monkey
off his back,
The monkey grabbed his neck and said,
"Now listen, Jack..."

Straighten up and fly right,
Straighten up and fly right
Straighten up and fly right
Cool down, papa, don't you blow your top.
Ain't no use in divin',
What's the use in jivin'?
Straighten up and fly right
Cool down, papa, don't you blow your top.

The buzzard told the monkey,
You're chokin' me.
Release your hold and I'll set you free.
The monkey looked the buzzard right
dead in the eye and said,
Your story's so touching, but it sounds
jes' like a lie.

Straighten up and fly right
Straighten up and stay right
Straighten up and fly right
Cool down, papa, don't you blow your top.

Straighten up and fly right
Straighten up and stay right
Straighten up and fly right
Cool down, papa, don't you blow - your - top.

Fly right!

"Summertime"

"Summertime"


This is how I pray in the summertime,
this is how I pray in the summer
Got my glass of shandy,
now I feel fine, this is how I pray yeah

The more you say, the more you pray,
the less it's getting you down
The more you pray, the more you stay, the less it's getting you down.

Auntumn time, leaves falling all around
Winter time follows suit
Little bunnies freezing in the snow
Winter's such an ugly bute

Mid-city bluss getting you down
Take a break from the strain
Get out your car,
drink a glass of wine
Admit it, you feel great
It's the summertime

This is how I play in the summertime,
this is how I pray in the summer
Got y glass of shandy,
now I feel fine, this is how I pray, yeah

This is how I pray in the summertime,
this is how we play in the summer
Got my glass of shandy
now I feel fine, this is how I pray, yeah

And if your love had met
its sad refrein
Believe me, you will love again
And all the best laid plans
of mice and men go wrong
You can hear it in this song

This is how I break for
the summer time,
this is how I play in the summer
What's mine is yours, yours is mine
This is how I pray, yeah, oh, yeah

You got the funky drummer in '89
This is how I pray, yeah, oh, woah

The Mondays, The Roses,
blocking all your noses
Wearing baggy clothes
and their buffalo poses
Bank tellers, dropping little fellas
Loved up in the clubs with
football thugs, no malice
I dig your socks
Big fish, little fish, carboard box
So give me French-kiss, I love you
Voodoo Ray
I dream of Santa Ana
on the road to Mandalay

In the summertime
Where the weather is hot
In the summertime
Where the weather is hot
On my mind, on my mind
In the summertime
Where the weather is hot
In the summertime
Summertime
When the weather is hot
In the summertime
On my mind

I got shivers down my spine
On my mind
Happiness is surface light
On my mind
On my mind

"Super Tony"

"Super Tony"


Co-caine
Co-caine

Look at the mess we all made of ourselves
I don't remember it well
Everyone trying to be someone else
I was someone else as well
But it's all right
When you're getting the show right

Co-caine
Co-caine

Can you recall all the cubicle scenes?
Didn't we talk well?
Professional northerners we might of been
We got a new walk as well
But it's all right
When you get your stroll right

Co-caine
Co-caine

Stuck in a lift with a vacuum nosepipe
Stuck where the god sights fronting star fight

Super Tony
Going too far Tony

And yes it's all about me again boys
This is the part where I do the northern way

Super Tony
Going too far Tony

Co-caine
Co-caine

Isn't it nice that our fingers make V's?
Let's throw 'em all night
I got a nose bleed and nobody cares
Up with the big heads

But it's all right
When you're so bright

Stuck in a lift with a vacuum nosepipe
Stuck where the god sights fronting star fight

Super Tony
Going too far Tony

And yes it's all about me again boys
This is the part where I do the northern way

Super Tony
Going too far Tony

And that what holier-than-I
But didn't I do well?
Shovelling snow with the best of the worst
People you know well

But it's all right
cos you're snow white

Stuck in a lift with a vacuum nosepipe
Stuck where the god sights fronting star fight

Super Tony
Going too far Tony

And yes it's all about me again boys
This is the part where I do the northern way

Super Tony
Going too far Tony

Co-caine

"Superblind"

"Superblind"


Sleep sleep feel the deep get
Away from the death of it all
Don't you wanna see what
You could have won.

Bittersweet your defeat baby
I'm much sicker than you
All you are is colours
And your colours run.

Isn't it genius that you can't deny
You just keep on doing harm
Could only see the sense in being superblind
And just keep on keeping on.

I can't help thinkin' 'bout me
Put a thought in for me
I'm the genius behind me
Maybe I shouldn't have said it.

And here in the century
What will they think
When they think about me.

Here it is, what a lie say
A prayer for the way it should be
We are people that don't believe
Wish your mother wouldn't bother
Won't she just stay out of your mind
Why should they stay when you make them leave.

Isn't it genius that you can't deny
You just keep on doing harm
Could only see the sense in being superblind
And just keep on keeping on.

I can't help thinkin' 'bout me
Put a thought in for me
I'm the genius behind me
Maybe I shouldn't have said it.

And here in the century
What will they think
When they think about me.

I can't help thinkin' 'bout me
Won't you put a prayer in for me
You can talk and think about me.

It's like these rocks know when we're dancing
We can pray our way out of this'
You're like a new wave old romantic
Try to break our heart but get stuck on it.

When you're superblind
Keep you out of mind
'Cause we all know
And we don't care.

"Surrender"

"Surrender"


I came in piece and I survived
I let the light destroy the lies
Till there's no bitterness inside

Then I be cane but I won't be cheap
There is no limit here for me
I'm taking everything I need

The world's alive
But it's
Run by feet
It's trying
Take your soul
Before you're leaving until
Break you down
If you
Don't break through
Take back control

When you feel like hope is gone
And there's no need to soldier on
No surrender
Don't you surrender, my love

I bite the world, the world bite back
This shout of love is not an act
And I care less if you don't understand

So when they'll send the symphony
It will be written just for me
The most joyest melody

Seek control
Avoid the pain
Wake up
And do it again
This is your home
This is your life
Take back control

When you feel like hope is gone
And there's no need to soldier on
No surrender
Now don't you surrender, my love
Cos you're not here for very long
So when you leave go with a song
No surrender
Let it be no surrender, my love

Treat me like a king
Kiss me like a stranger
Treat me like a king
Kiss me like a stranger
Treat me like a king
Kiss me like a stranger
Treat me like a king
Kiss me like a stranger

When you feel like hope is gone
And there's no need to soldier on
No surrender
Don't you surrender, my love

I bite the world, the world bite back
This shout of love is not an act
And I care less if you don't understand
No surrender
Let it be no surrender, my love

Treat me like a king
Kiss me like a stranger
Treat me like a king
Kiss me like a stranger

"Swing Supreme"

"Swing Supreme"


Oh it seemed forever stopped today
All the lonely hearts in London
Caught a plane and flew away
The best women are married
The handsome men are gay
You feel deprived

Yeah are you questioning your size?
Is there a tumour in your humour,
Are there bags under your eyes?
Do you leave dents where you sit,
Are you getting on a bit?
Will you survive
You must survive

When there's no love in town
This new century is bringing you down
All the places you have been
Trying to find a love supreme
A love supreme

Oh what are you really looking for?
Another partner in your life to abuse and to adore?
Is it lovey dovey stuff,
Do you need a bit of rough?
Get on your knees

Yeah turn down the love songs that you hear
'Cause you can't avoid the sentiment
That echoes in your ear
Saying love will stop the pain
Saying love will kill the fear
Do you believe
You must believe

When there's no love in town
This new century is bringing you down
All the places you have been
Trying to find a love supreme
A love supreme

When there's no love in town
This new century is bringing you down
All the places you have been
Trying to find a love supreme
A love supreme, a love supreme
A love supreme

A love supreme

"Swings Both Ways"
(feat. Rufus Wainwright)

"Swings Both Ways"
(feat. Rufus Wainwright)



I'm coming out of the sandbox
You'll get covered in dog doo
I'm gonna get off this sea saw
Say goodbye to your mama
Oh yea
Let's get high on some Pop Rock
Pop Rock and Coke
I'll blow your sock off,
teach how to laugh at daddy's dirty jokes

Don't hedge your bets, double down
if you want to get ahead in Tinsel Town
Turn that smile upside down
Happy people don't have sex
Now Robbie, everybody swings both ways
From the butchest, the bandits, the fairest,
the faggots and singers with everything they need
Everybody swings both ways
Face it Robbie, you're a little bit gay
Shall we dance?

I'm getting hot on the pavement
Can you find me some grass?
I have a certain arrangement
Up the Khyber Pass
Oh ya, let's get high with some fruit cake
Fruit cake and tea
And after I've done her
Well you can do me
Oh boy

Don't hedge your bets, double down,
if you want to get ahead in Tinsel Town
Just follow me you enormous clown
Clever people don't have sex
Now Rufus, everybody swings both ways
The bully, the bigot, the giant,
the midget and singers with everything they need
Everybody swings both ways
Face it Rufus, you're a tad gay
Oh yea?
Face it Robbie,
Uh huh?
You're a little bit gay

"Teenage Millionarie"


[Announcer:]
Hi out there. This is Shaun Goldberg and you're listening to W.A.N.K.
This evening I've got someone really interesting with me.
He's over from old England and his name is... Robbie Williams.
[Rob:]
Cor blimey bleedin' Mary Poppins!
[Announcer:]
Great, right on! You know we've been hearing about this boy band that was really big over there.
Can you tell us a little bit about it Robbie?
[Rob:]
First of all, I'd like to say thank you very much for having me in the first place
but to answer your question I can't really answer it.
I suppose it was a bit like this........

Haaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa
Riding in your limos
Hanging with your bimbos
Riding my old faithful
Bigger pin-up than Betty Grable
Kipper in the papers
Coke and whisky chasers
I ain't supposed to pose
But I don't care

I was a teenage millionaire
A teenage millionaire
A teenage millionaire
Yeah, yeah

Services for Britain
Pouting like a kitten
Dinner with Diana
I'm a social Stokey spanner
Waiting for my knighthood
She can pin it on my manhood
I ain't supposed to pose
But I don't care

I was a teenage millionaire
A teenage millionaire
A teenage millionaire
Yeah, yeah
A teenage millionaire

(It works out sometimes it's funny
Being stupid makes you lots of money)

Bothered Judy Garland
When I ordered Barbara Cartland
Champagne in my bidet
The press all had a field day
You may think it's an outrage
My cleaner?as wearing bondage
She makes my place a mess
But I don't care

I was a teenage millionaire
A teenage millionaire
A teenage millionaire
Yeah, yeah
A teenage millionaire

Come on waif
It looks as if you need a good feeling

"The 80's"

"The 80's"


I smoked Consulates and Park Drive, drank Nookie Brown
Learned how to skive
Polo mints to hide my breath from my mum
Did a little weed cuz it felt like fun
Did a little bit of speed if my friend had some
Nicked Volkswagen badges I'm a Beastie Boys son
Me so horny, me so young and I still get my washing done
Auntie Joan died of cancer God didn't have an answer
Rhythm was a dancer
Any room for a chancer? That's me in the corner, thanks sir!
I wore astute track suits, British Nike shoes, Kangol hat like LL Cool's
Before I was 'avin it, 'avin it large
They nicked the BMX from out my garage
Knew it was Theo from off the estate cuz every time he'd see me, he'd smile like we were mates
From then on in I'd have to walk to me Nan's
And I'd dream my dreams through a sea of prams
Like a hooligan on the football stands
And I'd throw the v's to Leeds and West Ham
Then I ran, I ran so far away down Scotia Road to a taxi bay
Then I ran again cuz I couldn't pay, a Muslim didn't get his fare that day
I apologise today

Things are better when they start
That's how the 80s broke my heart

And who are you calling poof? You like Wham, man, I hate that stuff
And then my grandad died and left a hole in the family and lots of women had to nanny me
School was a laugh, they didn't have ADD, thick was the term they used for me
(over and over)
Repeatedly
(over and over)

Take my breath away take my breath away
Bidly bidly bidly bom
Pass it on the left hand side, right turn, Clive

That girl in the fourth year, got pregnant and she was raised Catholic, brilliant!
I cried, she cried, we cried, our youth died
Drank cider in the cemetery
The year above us had discovered E and I said it weren't for me
?12.50? I could rob me mum's purse and buy one up Torquay
Met a girl on Monday, drank fizzy pop on Tuesday
Fingered her on Wednesday and on Thursday and Friday and on Saturday
Dumped by Sunday

Things are better when they start
That's how the 80s broke my heart
The wonder years, I've played my part
That's how the 80s broke my heart

Like I said, I lost my virginity to a girl called Anne-Marie, well she said she fancied me
And then she said "fuck me" and I thought 'fuck me, I'm all talk and it'll be over too quickly'
And it was but I couldn't care less, I'd seen a girl's bra and made a mess on her dress, oh yes!
You're now rocking with the best, second person in my year that had seen a breast
I'm in my 30s now and I'm still impressed
Where are the Falklands mum? And what have they done?
Where do girls come from? Where do girls come from? Where do girls come from?

It's the 80s, what you looking at, ya mong?
So young, so long, so young, so long
Too short, so long
What you looking at ya mong?
Too short, so long, too short, so long
So long.
