"Soft In The Head"

"Soft In The Head"


Soft in the head, I must be soft in the head
Out of my head, I'm probably out of my head
Things that I said are only things that I said
Soft in the head I must be
Out of my head, I must be out of my head
Soft in the head I must be

I've never been so worried 'bout the things I do
I've never thought of people, I'm a liar too
So won't you listen to me and the things I say
Maybe you'll go home one day

And if I leave you thinking 'bout the things you do
And I leave you looking for an answer too
Such a silly question that I ever knew
Daddy, what is (if you know, please tell me!)

But I don't believe in not believing in miracles
Anything could happen now
We all need a guiding light in the alleyway
Funny how it all works out
Funny how it all works out

Soft in the head, I must be soft in the head
Out of my head, I'm probably out of my head
Things that I said are only things that I said
Soft in the head I must be
Out of my head, I must be out of my head
Soft in the head I must be

I've got a great big problem that I can't work out
I've got a bunch of people gonna wear me out
Got a funny feeling it's all in the air
We're all going home one day

But I don't believe in not believing in miracles
Anything could happen now
We all need a guiding light in the alleyway
Funny how it all works out
But I don't believe in not believing in miracles
Anything could happen now
We all need a guiding light in the alleyway
Funny how it all works out

"Softer Ride"

"Softer Ride"


I ain't gonna work
I ain't gonna work no more

Stay in bed
Til' I'm satisfied
And let my head
Take a softer ride

I ain't gonna work
I ain't gonna work no more

I ain't gonna work
I ain't gonna work no more

Find me a schack
Where it's cool inside
Turn my back
On the cold outside

I ain't gonna work
I ain't gonna work no more

I could go back
To the job I had
But the same old thing
Only drives me mad, so

I ain't gonna work
I ain't gonna work no more
Never again
Will I have to be..down

I ain't gonna work
I ain't gonna work no more

Stay in bed
Til' I'm satisfied
And let my head
Take a softer ride

I ain't gonna work
I ain't gonna work no more

"Solid Gold"

"Solid Gold"


Take a ride to somewhere with me
Anywhere that you want it could be
Sit on back and take it all in
I know where you're going, I know where you've been

A little smile, a secretive grin
One more pull and we're out there again
Close your eyes and tell me you see
What you believe in is just you and me
Take it or leave it, but take it from me

I'm not worryin', I'm not lookin' back again
I ain't thinkin' it that way
No one's telling you now what you gotta do
We're not listening that way

'Cos it's gold, solid gold
We are gold, solid gold

Take a trip and I'll meet you there
We'll hang out on a wing and a prayer
Climb on board and put yourself in
We know where we're goin', we know where we've been
What do we know of the dangers within?

I'm not worryin', I'm not lookin' back again
I ain't thinkin' it that way
No one's telling you now what you gotta do
We're not listening that way

'Cos it's gold, solid gold
We are gold, solid gold

Take a ride to somewhere with me
Anywhere that you want it could be
Sit on back and take it all in
I know where you're going, I know where you've been
What do we know of the dangers within?

I'm not worryin', I'm not lookin' back again
I ain't thinkin' it that way
No one's telling you now what you gotta do
We're not listening that way

I'm not worryin', I'm not lookin' back again
I ain't thinkin' it that way
No one's telling you now what you gotta do
We're not listening that way

'Cos it's gold, solid gold
We are gold, solid gold

"Someone Show Me Home"

"Someone Show Me Home"


Down by the side of the hotel all-nighter
Is your old grey door
Men gather round with the fear that a lawman
Will come to clean up the floor
One a week it all begins
10:15 for sure

Smoke fills the room, they arrive in a hurry
Bring the tears to my eyes

Someone show me outta here
Someone show me home
Someone show me, I can't stay
To see you act that way

Out on the street people moving in closer
I take the lift nineteen floors
Right to the top to the edge set for falling
I look down to see you there

Someone show me outta here
Someone show me home
Someone show me, I can't stay
To see you act that way

Someone show me outta here
Someone show me home
Someone show me, I can't stay
To see you act that way

"Someone's Learning"

"Someone's Learning"


All around an open fire, no-one's got a name
The flame is getting higher and higher, nothing's quite the same
But someone's learning, the fire keeps burning
Someone's learning, the fire keeps burning

In the night three children died, now, all were under five
That's alright, God's on our side, now, our religious right
And someone's learning, someone's learning
The world keeps turning, and someone's learning

Someone made a big mistake, now, that will never do
Show him what we think about it, read it in the news
And someone's learning, someone's learning
The world keeps turning, and someone's learning

"Something 'Bout You Baby I Like"

"Something 'Bout You Baby I Like"


I see you every day walking down the avenue
I'd like to get to know you but all I do is smile at you.
Oh baby, when it comes to talking my tongue gets so tight
This sidewalk love affair has got me high as a kite
Yeah yeah, there's something 'bout you baby I like

Well I'm a slow walker but girl I'd race a mile for you
Just to get back in time for my peek-a-boo rendezvous
Well baby maybe it's the way you wear your blue jeans so tight
I can't put my finger on what you're doing right
Yeah yeah, there's something 'bout you baby I like

Yeah yeah, there's something 'bout you baby I like

Well I'm standing on a corner smiling by a telephone
I'd like to check you over, get to know you with a fine tooth comb
Oh baby, when I get home I turn out the light
And then you come a strolling through my dreams every night
Yeah yeah, there's something 'bout you baby I like
Yeah yeah, there's something 'bout you baby I like

"Something's Going On In My Head"

"Something's Going On In My Head"


Something you're saying now
Disturbing the way I feel
I don't know what you're about
I only know the way that I feel
I'm holding it here in my mind
So please don't be unkind
Don't talk just let me unwind
'Cos something's going on in my head Yeah, something's going on in my head
And I'm not quite sure what you said

I can see the rain outside
It's falling on everything
It's making such a noise out there
But my ears they don't hear a thing
I'm trying to get it over to you
Just what I want you to do
Don't know what I'm going through
'Cos something's going on in my head
Yeah, something's going on in my head
And I'm not quite sure what you said

Something you're saying now
Disturbing the way I feel
I don't know what you're about
I only know the way I feel
I'm holding it here in my mind
So please don't be unkind
Don't talk just let me unwind
'Cos something's going on in my head Yeah, something's going on in my head
And I'm not quite sure what you said

"Sorrow"

"Sorrow"


With your long blonde hair and your eyes of blue
The only thing I ever got from you
Was sorrow, sorrow

You're acting funny, spending all my money
You're out there playing your high class games
Sorrow, sorrow

You never do what you know you oughtta
Something tells me you're the Devil's daughter
Sorrow, sorrow
Aaah, aaah

With your long blonde hair
I didn't sleep last night
With your long blonde hair

I tried to fight her but I can't resist her
I never knew just how much I missed her
Sorrow, sorrow

With your long blonde hair and your eyes of blue
The only thing I ever got from you
Was sorrow, sorrow
Aaah, aaah

With your long blonde hair
I didn't sleep last night
With your long blonde hair

"Sorry"

"Sorry"


Whispering, you know I saw you were whispering
Listening, you didn't think I was listening
I got the right things all wrong again, once again
I hurt you, never feeling

Answer me, you know you won't even answer me
After me, I know you won't hurry after me
If you feel that it has to be, as for me
We can't be sure of feelings
Don't fall apart or lose your heart
You're far away, is it clear when I say

Sorry for saying the things I said
Sorry for starting it all
All I can say is sorry to you
And kiss your lips and tell you I love you

Chance today, we had our very last chance today
Romance today, it was our very last chance today
I spin the wheels and I'm fast away, far away
I don't know where but somewhere
Don't fall apart or lose your heart
You're far away, is it clear when I say

Sorry for saying the things I said
Sorry for starting it all
All I can say is sorry to you
And kiss your lips and tell you I love you
Sorry for saying the things I said
Sorry for starting it all
All I can say is sorry to you
And kiss your lips and tell you I love you
Sorry for saying the things I said
Sorry for saying the things I said
Sorry for saying the things I said

"Speechless"

"Speechless"


Everytime I watch you gotta switch you off
You surely can't be serious
Everytime I see you I just can't believe you
Totally ridiculous
All those days I spent staring at your wilderness
All those ways you got to me, threw me
You, you leave me speechless

You, you make me scared of you, you make me scared
Of losing concentration
Whoo! Make me afraid of you, make me afraid of
Losing conver- conver- conver- conver- conversation
All my friends say that you're completely fruitless
Hide away with you, I'm guilty, I'm guilty
You've found my only weakness

You, you leave me spechless, you, you leave me speechless
You, you leave me speechless
I said you, you leave me speechless, you, you leave me speechless
You, you leave me speechless
I said you, you leave me speechless, you, you leave me speechless
You, you leave me speechless
I said you, you leave me speechless, you, you leave me speechless
Speechless, speechless, speechless, speechless

Entertainment, ah!
You leave me speechless, still leave me speechless
You leave me speechless, you leave me spee-ee-ee-eechless
You leave me speechless, still leave me speechless
You leave me speechless, you leave me spee-ee-ee-eechless
You leave me speechless, still leave me speechless
You leave me speechless, you leave me spee-ee-ee-eech...
...Less

Your remote control is sending out patrols
I've got consumer sadness
Spray me, camouflage me, blind me so I can't see
Help me through this madness
All those years I spent clinging to your warm breast
All those words mean less
I don't think, I just
Gotta get it off my chest - you pest!

You, you leave me spechless, you, you leave me speechless
You, you leave me speechless
I said you, you leave me speechless, you, you leave me speechless
You, you leave me speechless
I said you, you leave me speechless, you, you leave me speechless
You, you leave me speechless
I said you, you leave me speechless, you, you leave me speechless
Speechless, speechless, speechless, speechless

You leave me speechless
I said you leave me, you leave me
You leave me speechless
I said you leave me, you leave me
You leave me speechless
