DOG TRAIN

Well this is murder
On the dog train
when all the brakes
have failed
+ I'm going down hill
+ if you see me wave
I'm only saying bye bye
There's not a single tear
in my eyes

+ if you've heard this before
I'm gonna say it again
life was easy when
I didn't have a clue
Because this is murder
I'm getting dog tired
Let's make the world
Brand new
how about you

BEAUTIFUL DAY

What a Beautiful day
I'm the king of all time
Nothing is impossible
in my all powerful mind

It was the fifth of November
when time went back
Some say that's impossible
but you + I we never look back
Wasn't it incredible
so beautiful above all
to see the fuse lit this time
to light a real bonfire
for all time

I was drinking in a night club
it felt good to be back
when Hepburn said 'I love you'
+ Flynn said 'make mine a double jack'
then we planned a revolution
to make things better for all time
when Guevara said 'that's crazy'
+ ordered up a bottle of wine

In there on the Big Screen
every night I've seen
the way things could be ...

The news broke after midnight
that we pulled the temple down
without a sound
But the generals they were hiding
+ the ministers, well ...
they'd all gone to ground
wealth re-distribution
became new solution
So I got a paper back
but you got the one with all the holes


CELEBRATE

AMID the sound + light
on a table with friends
everybody's fine
they're all drinking wine

You feel in love
in a crowded room
not for the first
but for the thousandth time

CH: So you celebrate your love

    With a little house
	Just made for two
	With all the lovely things
	You can buy brand new
	Gonna settle down
	Just the both of you
	Gonna be a good soul
	From now on ...
	
When the sap first rose
back in the day
you thought you'd play it smart
the trail of broken hearts
you said they won't find you
living in the box for two

So when you cath an eye
+ your dancing heart
starts telling you lies
doing it to survive
what else could hurt
so much it makes you cry

RAIN & SNOW

:  v1      Well I married me a wife
           She gave me trouble all my life
           Ran me out in the cold rain and snow
           Rain and Snow

   v2      She came running on down the stairs
           Combing back her long blonde hair
           And her cheeks were as red as a rose
           As a Rose

   v3      She said I aint got no use for you
           ???
           And I'm not gonna be treated this way
           This Way

   v4      I see you all sitting in the shade
           Counting every dime I made
           I'm so broken and hungry too
           Hungry Too Ooh

   repeat first verse


FAR AWAY

And it will stop               
'cos there's never been a day      
that lasts forever           
just as the sun sets    
it will rise at dawn     
forever after

Sorry if it ain't that sweet
Living in the world you meet
But that should never stop you

Chorus :

Because far away is close at hand
There in the drifting sand
And far away is close at hand
In the imagination
Of every woman and every man


And I'm sorry if it ain't that cool
living in a world of fools
But that should never stop you

Chorus:

But It will stop
all you can see is there
to tell you
rain must fall
for the sun to shine
there down before you
and I'm sorry it ain't that cool
Living in a world of fools
But that should never 
stop you

C.C.T.V.

:v1    Your there in black and white
       Hundreds watch you every night
       You're starring in a film 
   every weekend
   On video and stills
   With all your friends
   You're there in Black and White
   Hundreds watch you every night

   CHORUS
   You can't hide
   You cannot
   Cos we can see you everywhere

   You're great in every scene
   You're very natural
   It's as if you cannot see
   the spotlight on you
   But when you fluff a line
   the director says
   You're doing time

   When you're walking home
   In the evening after dark
   Remember don't hide
   And show your best side
   Cos you're the star in a film

CHEMICALLY FREE

I'm so glad to see you
the things that you do
are so chemically free
it's a wonder to me
that you're still smiling

I hear you're on top
of the heap
you own nothing that's cheap
and how is London town
is it getting you down
lately

CH:
   Now you're on top of the world
   Looking down on the nation
   You're the boy with the girl
   Whos'e above all creation
   the man with the plan
   whos'e goingto do all he can
   for himself
   	
Did you buy all we sell
all you took from us well
they say love's not for a sale
and have I hit the nail
you've been holding
all the friends that you've made
for the prices you've paid
came to lye at your feet
and worship what you made

I believed you ~ We believed you

You should have told us that you never meant a word that you said


ELATION

Oh there once was a man who had lost his own smile
And he wandered the country mile after mile
Never quite knowing what he wanted to find
For his heart laid heavy with the weight of his mind

So he looked at the land through the tears in his eyes
For he knew that there were those who would will her to die
And he wept for his mother as he lay at her feet
He hears a voice singing him softly to sleep

I'll be your queen, I'll be your mother, be your mystical child
Be your best friend, your lover, your wife for all time
Will there ever be another in this life of mine
Will there ever be another like my mystical child

So he climbed a high hill and looked out to sea
And he heard a voice calling softly to him
Open your heart boy for it needs to be free
And the next time your crying come running to me

I'll be your queen, I'll be your mother, be your mystical child
Be your best friend, your lover, your wife for all time
Will there ever be another in this life of mine
Will there ever be another like my mystical child

So he walked through the valley the trees and the fields
And he came to a river where she waited for him
And they looked at the water of life flowing by
And he heard a voice saying: "You're not alone in the fight"

I'll be your queen, I'll be your mother, be your mystical child
Be your best friend, your lover, your wife for all time
Will there ever be another in this life of mine
Will there ever be another like my mystical child

Will there ever be another like my mystical child


CAPTAIN'S COURAGEOUS

:  v1       Kick the sheets off 
   			get out of bed
    	    Good morning 
   			de ja vu
            Is this the best thing 
   			in my head
            Good morning
   			now what to do

   Look at my day 
   What's the first appointment
   Lunch in heaven 
   What a disappointment 

   CHORUS
           I could run away 
           with Captain Courageous
           I could live on fruit 
           in Montego Bay
           I could run a bar 
           in a war torn front line
           I could do it all
           But just not today

   v2      Good morning T.V 
           what's been said
           Around the world 
           whilst I'm in bed
           Nothing changes 
           Cos we're still being fed
           On little white lies
           And stale white bread

   v3      Look at my day  
           What's my next appointment
           Dinner in hell
           What a disappointment

   v4      I live for you
           and you live for me
           For four hours
           every day
           Another social misery
           for hours and hours
           (every day ....)

           I could free my mind
           Become a rich mans guru
           I could take the time
           To feed the world
           Could drink all day 
   Until I find 
   All the answers

   I could do it all
   But just not today .....

SURVIVORS

In the life in front of you and me
Seems there is no logic	no place that you must be
And there are times that it gets so hard to see
To find the valid reasons for the things that come to be
But you must try to set your spirit free
you know you cannot hide from spiritual disease
And it seems you cannot please the present company

Who could claim to know the answers
It's just the way we're maid to be
Love is stronger in survivors
Survivors follow destiny

If you like we could go down to the sea
We could watch the evening tide catch the boat to Honalee
We could fly above the dark city
Gettin' higher in the sky with every breath you breathe
And if you cry about the things you leave
Its yourself you should ask of the things you realy need
And you know it is no lie for it only takes belief

Who could claim to know the answers
It's just the way we're maid to be now
Love is stronger in survivors
Survivors follow destiny

SAIL AWAY

Down the hill I wander just to watch the world go by
Passes by pass under, underneath the clear the sky

No one seems to notice, no one seem to even wonder why.

Theres as I sit I sail away, it is as if I broke the line
cos nothing really matters, nothing matters all the time

But none seems to notice, no one seems to even wonder why.

TOO REAL

:
 v1   Here she comes - the great Leveller
   King and serfs bow before her
   If you feel her eyes on you - run
   She'll come and put her arms around you 
   You lie and say she hasn't found you
   You'll run to her she's there to greet you
   Are you lost to us forever
   Tied in lust strapped in leather
   Is the cost way beyond you
   Do you love her more than you love yourself

   CHORUS
   Is it just too real
   Cold clear for you to feel
   Is it just too real
   Cold clear for you to feel


   v2      Am I far in the distance
   Am I the cure or a symptom
   Should I go when you tell me to
   Can you tell I've never loved her
   Because my life is for another
   Who's up and down
   But will take me there
   I don't claim to understand her
   But hand in hand I am with her
   Bright and clear and with a future 
   You can come and join us if you dare

   I sing - But you can't speak
   I laugh - But you can't smile
   l love - But you lie low
   Got to let her go .....
   I look - You don't see
   I talk - You don't hear
   I walk then you will crawl low
   You've got to let her go
