"You Do Something To Me"

"You Do Something To Me"



You do something to me
For my heart is so true
And I live just for you

Yes, you do something to me
That nobody else
That nobody else
That nobody else can do

You do something to me
For my heart is so true
And I live just for you

Yes, you do something to me
That nobody else
That nobody else
That nobody else can do

Everything you say,
Everything you do,
Makes me want to fall,
Fall in love, fall in love with you

You do something to me
For my heart is so true
And I live just for you

Yes, you do something to me
That nobody else
That nobody else
That nobody else can do

Everything you say,
Everything you do,
Makes me want to fall,
Fall in love, fall in love with you

You do something to me
That nobody else
That nobody else
That nobody else can do
Can do

"You Don't Know My Name"

"You Don't Know My Name"


I've been travelling on this road
I get the feeling its getting on
I keep moving on
I keep rolling on
But does anybody know my name

Travelling oh so long
I get the feeling thats something's wrong
I keep rolling on
I keep rolling on
But does anybody know my name.

How could you believe when you don't know my name

[Repeat]

I see life is such a simple game
I sit and watch it from my moving train
A bumpy ride to-day
I'm not alone this way
Does anybody know my name.

Arrested in '69
For upsetting a tourist guide
Well pay the fine or jail
I just smiled and said
That I'm oh so glad to be alive.

How could you believe when you don't know my name

[Repeat]

How could you believe when you don't understand.

"You Make It All Worthwhile"

"You Make It All Worthwhile"


He arrives home. He fumbles in his
Pockets for his keys but there is no
Need. Andrea is waiting to greet him
With open arms.

[Wife:]
Hello love. You look all worn out!
Let me take your brief case. That's a
Good boy. Now you come and sit down
Ouer here and relax and I'll make you
A nice cuppa tea. Then we'll have
Dinner and we can sit and watch the
Tele. By the way dear, how'd you get
On at the office.

You Make It All Worthwhile

I mustn't stay in this job too long
I gotta get out before the hold is too strong
Gotta get out before my ambition is gone
'Cos it's breaking me up and bringing me down.

But when I get home you make it all worthwhile,
You make me laugh and you make me smile
And after a hard day sorting out the files
You make it all worthwhile.

[Wife:]
Oh, I've just remembered we've only got shepherd's pie,
Do you like it?

[Star:]
No, I hate it.

[Wife:]
Hate it? But you see Norman loves it so much and you did ask me to
Act normally, didn't you. I mean I can't cope with all that
Fancy stuff you like to eat.

[Star:]
Alright, I'll eat it and afterwards, I'll write a whole verse about
Your cooking.

You mustn't blame yourself like you do,
It's gonna make a nervous wreck out of you,
So wipe your nose and dry your eyes,
What's the point of cracking up all because of shepherd's pie?

Baby, you never know what I've been through.
I break my back and sweat and slave
To bring some money home to you.
Baby, you won't believe it but it's true
What a boring occupation can do,
It can make a nervous wreck out of you,
It can kill your spirit and destroy your mind.

But when I get home you make it all worthwhile.
You make me laugh and you make me smile
And after a hard day sorting out the files
You make it all worthwhile.

[Wife:]
Would you like steam pudding and custard for afters.

[Star:]
Darling, that would be marvellous.

And when I come home you make it all worthwhile.
You make me laugh and you make me smile
And after a hard day working on the files
You make it all worthwhile

[Star:]
Come on darling, let's go and have dinner.

And when I come home you make it all worthwhile.
You make me laugh and you make me smile
And after a hard day working on the files
You make it all worthwhile.

"You Shouldn't Be Sad"

"You Shouldn't Be Sad"



Can't you see (can't you see)
Can't you see by the look in my eyes
Can't you see (can't you see)
Can't you see I'm in paradise

I feel all right
I feel okay
'Cause I'm in love (I'm in love)
And you shouldn't be sad

People say (people say)
That love can do funny things
But I say (but I say)
I'm gonna take what the future brings

I feel all right
I feel okay
'Cause I'm in love (I'm in love)
And you shouldn't be sad

No, you can't be sad my darling
If you say you love me too
Well, it seems that all the good things I've done
Done it all for you
Done it all, done it all for you

Can't you see (can't you see)
Can't you see by the look in my eyes
Can't you see (can't you see)
Can't you see I'm in paradise

I feel all right
I feel okay
'Cause I'm in love (I'm in love)
And you shouldn't be sad

I'm in love
And I know, and I know,
And I know, and I know
That you shouldn't be sad

"You Still Want Me"

"You Still Want Me"



When you passed me by
You didn't look my way
But one thing I know
Our love is here to stay

And you still want me
And you still want me

You wanted the sky
But I couldn't reach so high
I gave you my love
But you found some other guy

And you still want me
And you still want me

I know because the smile that's on your lips
Is for me
They were meant for me to kiss
And you were meant to love me darling

I'll be around
When other guys have gone
I'll tell you once more
How I still love you so

And you still want me
And you still want me

I know because the smile that's on your lips
Is for me
They were meant for me to kiss
And you were meant to love me darling

I'll be around
When other guys have gone
I'll tell you once more
How I still love you so

And you still want me
And you still want me
And you still want me

"You're Looking Fine"

"You're Looking Fine"



When I first saw her
She looked alright,
Second time that I saw her
She looked outta sight.
And I said,
You're lookin' fine,
You're lookin' fine,
You're lookin' fine,
And I feel alright,
Yes, I feel alright.

She got all the angles,
So directly applied.
And when I see her,
I have to cry,
You're lookin' fine,
You're lookin' fine,
You're lookin' fine,
And I feel alright,
Yeah, I feel alright.

You're lookin' fine,
You're lookin' fine,
You're lookin' fine,
And I feel alright,
And I feel alright.

"Young And Innocent Days"

"Young And Innocent Days"



I look back at the way I used to look at life
Soft, white dreams with sugar coated outside
It was great, so great
Young and innocent days

I wish my eyes could only see
Everything, exactly as it used to be
It's too late, so late
Young and innocent days

I see the lines across your face
Time has gone and nothing ever can replace
Those great, so great
Young and innocent days

"Young Conservatives"

"Young Conservatives"



Have you heard the word?
The revolution's over.
Now the anger's disappeared
And the rebels are much older.
And the schools and universities
Are turning out a brand new breed of young conservatives.

Get yourself a brand new scene,
Keep your collars white and clean,
It's time to come and join the young conservatives.

Revolution used to be cool,
But now it's out of fashion.
Politeness is the rule,
And not an angry young man's passion.
And they've used up all the alternatives,
And they're rushing down the street to join
The young conservatives.
Conservatives.

Ban the bomb, oh how contemporary,
In your parents' car.
Another chip off the block, is that all that you are?
Look at all the young conservatives
Hanging out in the bars.
It's got to stop before it goes to fa-fa-fa-fa-far.

Get yourself some new attire,
Set your sights a little higher,
You're going to join the young conservatives.

The establishment is winning,
Now the battle's nearly won.
The rebels are conforming,
See the father, now the sons.
All the urgency and energy
Have turned into complacency,
Now the schools and universities are turning out a
Brand new breed of young conservatives.
Conservatives.

Rebel, rebel found a cause,
Now it's Hampstead not East End
And now he's such a well respected man.
The only action that you see
Is in the Sunday Times.
Content to sit in bed and read between the lines.

Rebel, rebel join the young conservatives.
Be a devil join the new conservatives.

It's a victory for order
Now they've beaten everyone.
The rebels are too old now,
And the young just want to be young.
All the urgency and energy
Have turned into complacency.
Now the schools and universities are turning out a
Brand new breed of young conservatives.
Conservatives.

Look at all the young conservatives.
Look at all the young conservatives.

"Yours Truly, Confused N10"

"Yours Truly, Confused N10"



Dear sir or madame, I don't normally write to the press
But the neighbourhood where I grew up is really quite depressed.
Society is crumbling but the media's obsessed with boobs, bums,
Dot com, millionaires, fame, fashion, footsie shares
But people they couldn't care less.

While parliamentary yobbos shout abuse around the house
Do-gooders and reformers lead our nation to defeat.
While murderers and terrorists get compassionate release
You're out now. You're back on the street yeh, back on the street.

That's why I remain yours truly, confused N10.

I close my eyes and lay back and I think of England.
I dream about that green and pleasant land we knew as England.
That throne of kings, that sceptred isle set in a silver sea
Has turned into a laughing stock divided without harmony.

That's why I remain yours truly, confused N10

The burglars have ransacked all the houses in the street
While Mercs and Posches double park with sheer impunity.
When towed away the ponces plead to all and sundry
Referee what about me?

So forgive my lack of confidence and total low esteem
But the dog eat dog society has deemed us all has-beens.
While our smiling bland spin doctors slyly lead us down the track
To a stab in the back.

I'm much too terrified to go out at night but the television's boring.
They're vandalising all the cars on the street
But I won't lay down and take defeat.

That's why I remain yours truly, confused N10

Thank you goodnight
