1. Our Love

You don't need anyone to know
That you exist
You don't want anyone to know
You can't resist

 

All this time,
All those prayers,
All this hanging around,
All these hopes,
All these fears,
All this, all this...

 

Our love
Is better than their love,
We could give you more love
There's not enough of
This thing called love, love...

 

Do you believe that love will make
everything alright?
Do you believe stars disappear
when it gets light?

 

All these dreams,
All these lies,
All that sleeping around...
More receptions,
Empty rooms,
All this, all this...

 

Aren't we cruel?
Isn't it all so cruel?
The things we do with love...
And the things we do without love

2. Don't Say No

When we were only 17
and thrown into society
that was the end of you and me
from what we could have been

 

And if we didn't keep in touch
I guess we didn't care that much
We never understood that stuff
but now I need you

 

I never meant to let you down
but letting you down was easy

 

Didn't it break your heart
Maybe I'm just too needy
Do any of you still need me
in your lives, in your heart
Don't say yes
just to please me
If you're still you and you want
Don't say no

 

We fought together
Laughed together
Said things that we hoped were clever
The thought of missing you forever
makes me want to cry
And now that you've grown up to be
a sentimental memory
Are you still you cuz I'm still me
At least I hope so

 

A life beginning somewhere else
It was our time to die

 

Didn't it break your heart
Maybe I'm just too needy
Do any of you still need me
in your life, in your heart
Don't say yes
just to please me
If you're still you and you want
Don't say no

 

So, what do you know
Where do you go
Has it been fun
Oh did you survive being buried alive
like I did

 

Didn't it break your heart
Maybe I'm just too needy
Do any of you still need me
in your life, in your heart
Don't say yes
just to please me
If you're still you and you want
Don't say no

3. Family Coach

All aboard the family coach
It's leaving Greenbank Road
Christmas 1981
Christmas when it snowed.
Whilst on board the family coach
They were circling the moon
No one had been there before
They were landing there in June

 

Hey hey family coach
My family coach
You've got to make the most
The most of your family coach

 

Meanwhile on the family coach
The postillion quietly spoke
He said, "You can not leave your family coach
This is not a joke
We must work out our differences
Though none of us may change
We all take different routes through life
But your coach will stay the same".

 

Hey hey family coach
My family coach
You've got to make the most
The most of your family coach

 

Hey hey family coach
My family coach
You've got to make the most
The most of your family coach

 

Back on board Apollo 8
They had gone behind
And the human family held its breath
And wondered what they'd find.
Our family coach can stay on earth
Or be a rocket ship
But wherever, wherever you may go
Your kin will share the trip.

 

Hey hey family coach
My family coach
You've got to make the most
The most of your family coach

 

Now it might well appear to you
That they were simpler days
And the family coach is smaller now
Some have passed away
But there's never been a golden age
Nostalgia's for the lame
The best is yet to come
It's that kind of game.

 

Hey hey family coach
My family coach
You've got to make the most
The most of your family coach

 

Hey hey family coach
My family coach
You've got to make the most
The most of your family coach

4. Bag Full Of Silly

Gloomy Manchester
Always raining
Full of chippy max entertainment
Groovy Madchester
June split to autumn
Owen six-one
England siatzo

 

And I know I should have written it down
The southern comfort I forgot to knew somehow

 

Last night this girl in my bed
I was telling who I'd want to set
When all I had was potential innerhypnotial dread
Full with a bag full of silly
Walking through big of dilly
And I... well anyway anyway

 

When you were asleep
Do so much to hurt me
Guts of Manchester
Make me feel dirty
Has the end of
On a game nights
Dropping little fellas
To make me feel right

 

And I think about you now and then
When I'm talking towns to my friend

 

Last night this girl in my bed
I was telling who I'd want to set
When all I had was potential innerhypnotial dread
Full with a bag full of silly
Walking through big of dilly
And I... well anyway anyway

 

We all made out in places
And I've been into a few
What I need now is a marryal view
'Cause I can see from myself
That I can see from myself
But oh... well anyway anyway

 

Now I'm let to go to Manchester
To miles away
Ain't that hard through antics
When I close my eyes
Close my eyes
Close my eyes

 

Last night this girl in my bed
I was telling who I want to set
When all I had was potential innerhypnotial dread
Full with a bag full of silly
Walking through big of dilly
And I... well anyway anyway

5. Meet The Stars

The year before I thought of leaving
I cant remember what I did
Us in bed in Maida Vale basements
When you left
Westend winters
High heel clatters
Morning dawning
Nothing matters

 

When we took a cab
Back when cabs had somewhere to go
And we'd meet the stars
When stars were people you'd want to know
We were new to fame
woaooh oh oh oh
I'm so glad you came

 

Some of us fell by the wayside
Others had it and threw it away
Some carried on pretending
That it was not ending today
Once admired
Oh so tired
Lose it all
In the night time

 

And we took a cab
Back when cabs had somewhere to go
And we'd meet the stars
When stars were people you'd want to know
We were new to fame
I'm so glad I came

 

It took me years to find my own song
And for years I thought I'd just sing along
But the words were wrong
A tune that is true lives on and on
It will still be here when I'm gone

 

And we took a cab
Back when cabs had somewhere to go
And we'd meet the stars
When stars were people you'd want to know
We were new to fame
wo oho hoh
I'm so glad we came

 

And we'd take a cab
Back when cabs had somewhere to go
And we'd meet the stars
When stars were people you'd want to know
We were new to fame
wo oho hoh
I'm so glad I came

6. The Postcard

I don’t remember receiving your postcard
I never got much post so it shouldn’t be too hard
You were on holiday with your school in some french town
And when you were away i took debbie to The Crown

 

I feel as though the past is closing in on me
I found a photograph of me and kimberly

 

I found your postcard and i put it on the wall
I found your picture you know tears were bound to fall
I didn’t write you songs when we were going out
So why should i start now you are not about

 

I feel as though the past is closing in on me
I found a photograph of me and kimberly

 

We hardly used to even drink we didn’t smoke
We’d walk home from the pub ‘cause we were always broke
So when your mother called and said that you were dead
I thought she was talking of another kim instead

 

I feel as though the past is closing in on me
I found a photograph of me and kimberly

 

She said it seems you accidentally overdosed
It was so long since i’d talked to her and once we were so close
And i’m left with all these things i didn’t say
And a picture of you in my arms the day you went away

 

I feel as though the past is closing in on me
I found a photograph of me and kimberly

7. Chemical Devotion

It’s in the laxative they’re cutting in the cocaine baby
It’s in the heroin, the ecstasy they’re mixing lately
Give me the boys and girls in bathrooms getting plenty friendly
With just the thought of us debauched and in the missionary

 

Watch me out of my skull
Watch me out of my mind
I’m out of control
But I’m still alive
Go get me cigarettes
Watch the circus pass by
Twos up on an eighth
All back to mine

 

What a feeling
Got steep my sweet dysfunction
I’ll keep on kneeling
For my chemical devotion
Let me kiss the ceiling
It’s just a notion for you
More than a feeling
That sweet devotion for you

 

It’s in the black sick and the choking on the blood and your tears
It’s in the echo of the jackdaw ringing in your ears
Watch me out of my gates
Ill advised, unprepared
No one gave a shit
When nobody cared
Another wasted talent
But that’s just fine
Two’s up on an eighth
All back to mine

 

What a feeling
Got steep my sweet dysfunction
I’ll keep on stealing
For my chemical devotion
Don’t kiss the ceiling
More than a potion for you
More than a feeling
That sweet devotion for you

 

I can’t take the fever from you
I don’t want to neither
They’re dropping science on you
You just need a breather
I’ll be looking over you

 

Overlooking me
It’s all in God’s time
All back to mine

 

What a feeling
Got steep my sweet dysfunction
So appealing
This chemical devotion
Got to kiss the ceiling
More than an ocean for you
More than a feeling
That sweet devotion for you

 

Shallow in the deep end
Got steep my sweet dysfunction
And I can depend
On chemical devotion
It’s like my best friend
That keeps the world in motion
I’ve got to defend
My chemical devotion

8. (I Feel It) But I Can't Explain

I walk into a room
I say how do you do
They look at me and I look back at them
I slip into a chair
They say are you prepared I said I do not know

 

Sometimes I feel it but I can't explain
Sometimes I need and want them through my vains

 

Now there's ten in front of me
Asking me what do I see
I see nothing but butterflies and
Tests I did not know
The answers will not show
And all I see is butterflies and

 

Sometimes I feel it but I can't explain
Sometimes the answer's running to my brains

 

And in the long run you always said I'll be there beside you
And in the long run you always thought I'll be there to guide you

 

Sometimes I feel it but I can't explain
Sometimes I need it like a running train
Sometimes I feel it in my pride
Sometimes I take it in my stride

 

Slow down feelings
Loved up with you
I can't feel my legs
I can't feel you

 

Slow down feelings
Loved up with you
The night before an hour, too
On my back and leaving you
Falling down the stairs and seen it through
Falling down feelin' this
Monday morning I feel out of sorts
But that's ok

 

Dried up and dreaming
Punching and screaming
Feeling the morning through

 

Duuududududuudu
Duuududududuudu
Duuududududuududududu
Duuududududuudu
Duuududududuudu
Duuududududuududududu

9. Please, Please

There's scary monsters in my bedroom tonight
They´re playing off-on-off-on-off with the lights
Without permission they just dizz up the lights
And they're not seeing the lights, alright

 

I wish they go and talk to Jesus instead
Cause now they're bored and want to mess with my head
I know I´m lonely but I won´t share my bed
All the things that you do when you´re dead

 

Please, please
Aahaahaahaaa
Please, please
Aaahaaahaahaa
Please, please
Aaahaaahaahaa
Please, please
Aaahaaahaahaa
Oh, you're breaking my heart

 

When I was young I didn't know what to do
I started thinking maybe I was dead too
A world of actors watching me, watching you
Till I hadn´t a clue what was true

 

Don´t send the sandman to a sensitive kid
And make-up monsters in my house where they live
You'll beat the demons that they scare themselves with
I know cause you know that I did

 

Please, please
Aahaahaahaaa
Please, please
Aaahaaahaahaa
Please, please
Aaahaaahaahaa
Please, please
Aaahaaahaahaa
You're breaking my heart

 

Oh, I´m so scared
With knowing there´s no one
Or knowing there´s somebody there

 

Mental arithmetic
Make me a lunatic
Hey to the heretic
I´m feeling alright, it´s alright

 

Please, please
Aahaahaahaaa
Please, please
Aaahaaahaahaa
Please, please
Aaahaaahaahaa
Please, please
Aaahaaahaahaa
Oh, are you breaking my heart

10. Do Me Now

Liberate a whale, liberate Wales
Liberate abortion, liberate males
I don’t mind

 

Ban the bomb, bang a gong
Ban fake fur, put a real one on
I don’t mind

 

Oh my head, I’m moving to the Med
Those cats know how to boogie
This E’s done nothing to me

 

Her retort was just a passing thought
Put the munchies down now scooby
I’m leaving in an hour
You better do me now

 

Prosecute Ghandi, persecute God
Elevate Bono, eliminate Rod
I don’t care

 

World War 4, the Beatles touring
And Chernobyl fallout, global warming
I don’t care

 

Oh my head, I’m moving to the Med
Those cats know how to boogie
This pill’s done nothing to me

 

Her retort was just a passing thought
Put the munchies down now scooby
I’ve got to catch a plane
You’d better do me now

 

In for me, in for me, you’ve all got it in for me
In for me, in for me, don’t tell me a story kid
You fucking bore me

 

Oh my head, I’m moving to the Med
Those cats know how to boogie
This speed’s done nothing to me

 

Her retort was just a fleeting thought
Put the munchies down now scooby
Going in an hour
You better do me

 

Oh my head, I’m gonna stay in bed
This cat don’t wanna boogie
The pills just pass right through me

 

Her retort was just a fleeting thought
Put the scooby snacks down, dooby
I’m getting on a plane
You better do me now
