Something to Do
|
|
My little girl Won't you come with me Come with me Tell me Is there something to do I'm going crazy with boredom Come with me Tell me Grey sky over a black town I can feel depression All around You've got your leather boots on I can't stand another drink It's surprising this town Doesn't sink You've got your leather boots on Your pretty dress is oil stained From working too hard For too little You've got your leather boots on You're feeling the boredom too I'd gladly go with you I'd put your leather boots on I'd put your pretty dress on |

Lie to Me
|
|
Come on and lay with me Come on and lie to me Tell me you love me Say I'm the only one Experiences have a lasting impression But words once spoken Don't mean a lot now Belief is the way The way of the innocent And when I say innocent I should say naive So lie to me But do it with sincerity Make me listen Just for a minute Make me think There's some truth in it Promises made for convenience Aren't necessarily What we need Truth is a word That's lost its meaning The truth has become Merely half-truth So lie to me Like they do it in the factory Make me think That at the end of the day Some great reward Will be coming my way |

People Are People
|
|
People are people So why should it be You and I should get along so awfully So we're different colours And we're different creeds And different people have different needs It's obvious you hate me Though I've done nothing wrong I've never even met you so what could I have done I can't understand What makes a man Hate another man Help me understand Help me understand Now you're punching And you're kicking And you're shouting at me I'm relying on your common decency So far it hasn't surfaced But I'm sure it exists It just takes a while to travel From your head to your fists |

It Doesn't Matter
|
|
I am happy That I have you Even though you're not here now I know somewhere You are dreaming Though it's definitely not of me It doesn't matter If all this shatters Nothing lasts forever But I'm praying That we're staying Together I am warmed By your friendship Even when you're far away And I'm happy In the knowledge We may never see the day When I kiss you And you kiss me Don't pretend you miss me The worst kind Of diseases mind Is on filled with jealousy If we should meet again Don't try to solve the puzzle Just lay down next to me And please don't move a muscle I will thank you Most of all for The respect you have for me I'm embarrassed It overwhelms me Because I don't deserve any |

Stories of Old
|
|
Take a look at unselected cases You'll find love has been wrecked By both sides compromising Amounting to a disastrous effect You hear stories of old Of princes bold With riches untold Happy souls Casting it all aside To take some bride To have the girl of their dreams At their side But not me I couldn't do that Not me I'm not like that I couldn't sacrifice Anything at all To love I really like you I'm attracted to you The way you move The things you do I'll probably burn in hell For saying this But I'm really in heaven Whenever we kiss But Oh no! You won't change me You can try For an eternity I wouldn't sacrifice Anything at all To love Now I've got things to do You have too And I've got to be me You've got to be you So take my hand And feel these lips And let's savour a kiss Like we'd savour a sip Of vintage wine One more time Let's surrender To this love divine But we won't sacrifice Anything at all To love |

Somebody
|
|
I want somebody to share Share the rest of my life Share my innermost thoughts Know my intimate details Someone who'll stand by my side And give me support And in return She'll get my support She will listen to me When I want to speak About the world we live in And life in general Though my views may be wrong They may even be perverted She will hear me out And won't easily be converted To my way of thinking In fact she'll often disagree But at the end of it all She will understand me I want somebody who cares For me passionately With every thought and with every breath Someone who'll help me see things In a different light All the things I detest I will almost like I don't want to be tied To anyone's strings I'm carefully trying to steer clear Of those things But when I'm asleep I want somebody Who will put their arms around me And kiss me tenderly Though things like this Make me sick In a case like this I'll get away with it |

Master and Servant
|
|
There's a new game We like to play you see A game with added reality You treat me like a dog Get me down on my knees We call it master and servant We call it master and servant It's a lot like life This play between the sheets With you on top and me underneath Forget all about equality Let's play master and servant Let's play master and servant It's a lot like life And that's what's appealing If you despise that throwaway feeling From disposable fun Then this is the one Domination's the name of the game In bed or in life They're both just the same Except in one you're fulfilled At the end of the day Let's play master and servant Let's play master and servant Let's play master and servant Come on master and servant |

If You Want
|
|
Working week's come to its end Party time is here again Everyone can come if they want to If you want to be with me If you want to be with me You can come with me if you want to Exercise your basic right We could build a building site From the bricks of shame is built the hope If you want to be with me If you want to be with me Even though you may still not want to Let tomorrow and today Bring a life of ecstacy Wipe away your tears of confusion If you want to be with me If you want to be with me You can come with me if you want to Even though you still may not want to |

Blasphemous Rumours
|
|
Girl of 16 Whole life ahead of her Slashed her wrists Bored with life Didn't succeed Thank the lord For small mercies Fighting back the tears Mother reads the note again 16 candles burn in her mind She takes the blame It's always the same She goes down on her knees And prays I don't want to start Any blasphemous rumours But I think that God's Got a sick sense of humour And when I die I expect to find Him laughing Girl of 18 Fell in love with everything Found new life In Jesus Christ Hit by a car Ended up On a life support machine Summer's day As she passed away Birds were singing In the summer sky Then came the rain And once again A tear fell From her mother's eye |
