Over Young
Over young help him
We don't really have it in for him
We're not out to burden him it's all in his head
Or lay into him that's what he said
Over young help him
They're all dancing in the streets
Showing off that's what he did when he was open
What he did when he had fun
Over young help him
She wants him just as he is
She wants him and she'll take him back when he took her on
She'll have him back just like his song
Over young help him
He's bursting all out of his veins
An overload of information to fill him up
Straighten out and let steam off
A casting couch at your expense
There's no answer just happiness
We're not out to burden him
Over young
A casting couch at your expense
There's no answers just happiness
We're not out to burden him
Over young
Over young

Follow Me Madly
I thought I heard you thinking out loud
Thinking out loud thinking out loud
I'm sure I saw you looking down on me
Looking down on me looking down on me
I saw you out running all around
Running all around running all around
You’re judgmental too much for words
Too much for words too much for words
But is it all in my mind
No
Follow me madly
You wear your smile looking so ugly
Looking so ugly looking so ugly
Your way of life was bringing me down
Bringing me down bringing me down
I know you don't like what you see
What you see what you see
Hey girl try to loosen up
Loosen up loosen up
But is it all in my mind
No
Follow me madly

No Secrets
This time I know I can't walk away and hide
Can’t let you fall slip away and slide
I’ve learnt it by now that I will tow the line
Out of out of my mind I walk around
Punching the sky I hit the ground
Picture your eyes they are two friends of mine
No secrets cause I want know you
No lies behind your back cause I'm thinking of you
Captured I'm in here forever feels outside
I’ve taken leave from myself inside
Having my freedom just how I like
This time I know I can't walk away and hide
Can’t let you fall slip away and slide
I’ve learnt it by now that I will tow the line
No secrets cause I want to know you
No lies behind your back cause I'm thinking of you
No secrets cause I want to know you
No lies behind your back cause I'm thinking of you

False Belief

False Belief
I had the world on a piece of string
Spun it out and it pointed out to sea
The more I look the less I find
The more I turn I’m left behind
You had nothing and kept it for yourself
Thought that empty meant freedom from yourself
You can't see past your nose it blurs your vision
Focus on something close it’s your decision
We all had wasted opportunities
We missed the boat couldn't make the ferry
And our dreams of rich prosperity
Vanished we're all addicts to false belief
And it seems the more I close my eyes
Brings some guidance a big surprise
You saved your country and they kicked you in the balls
I left my land for rich reward
You had the answers but couldn't question it
I had the questions doesn’t make it easy
You had the china and threw it to the floor
I picked it up couldn't put it together
We all had wasted opportunities
We missed the boat couldn't make the ferry
And our dreams of rich prosperity
Vanished we're all addicts to false belief

I Can Say That
I don't know just what the truth is
Does it really matter
It's all the same
Preacher man with another story
Lying back do you know what really moves me
I had a premonition
You'd react like that
You made some accusation
No facts
You if only you would listen
I can say that
You if only you would listen
I can say that
Tell me now
All your all so important truths
Making out it was you who solo wrote it
Weigh it up
There's more sides to every lie
I had a premonition
You'd react like that
You made some accusation
No facts
You if only you would listen
I can say that
You if only you would listen
I can say that

She (Let Her Down)
Can you imagine the death of your woman
Can you imagine a life as this
He says what’s up what’s going on
You say she’s clear soft cold and strong
He tells you his views a mindless notion
She plants the seed
He go reap for his earn
She’s not a stone statue in a museum
She’s made of flesh her own religion
Come on and let her down
Can you imagine tied to a cross
Burning in innocence
Mother your joy for him
And your sorrow for her
Mother your madness what a pity
To wrap her in cloth
And to lose her in reeds
Cover her face give her a veil
Hide her away she’s up for sale
Come on and let her down

Slip Away

Slip Away
It's bright in my room so bright I cannot see
Counting the seconds they seem to blind me
Looking at pictures of young pretty boy grins
Checking the mirror 'cause I don't feel much like him
There was so much time and love and sacrifice came my way
Fighting with thoughts for it's my turn to pay
Feeling obsessive no sense of purpose
When life is just another crap love song away
'Cause I don't want to slip away
Chasing time
That should remain
Words in my brain
Taunting me go away
Feeling so good when all of their work stops
'Cause just a bad conscience cause they feed me up and I slag them off
They're staring at me in the park with their bottle of joy
Over the edge watch out another step it could be me
He's funny and laughs and gives a big clown beam
But the smile is cracking it's wearing away at the seams
'Cause I don't want to slip away
Chasing time
That should remain
Words in my brain
Taunting me go away

My Only Drive
Smell her on my fingers
Makes me think of England
Going out to bars my only drive
Oh oh
Smokey gun feeling
Steaming out of my head
Bad brain conscience
Love you when you're dead
Oh oh
Don't you know I'm not lifting you
Don't you know I'm not kissing you
Don't you know I'm not head over heels about you
You took me inside love to hide
See those heavy thighs
On the morning rush train
Want to be in bed
Where I'm safe and said
Oh
What a big city
This is not a village
Could be a voice
Screeching brakes go high in my ears
Ears ears ears ears my ears
Don't you know I'm not lifting you
Don't you know I'm not kissing
Don't you know I'm not head over heels about you
You took me outside love to hide
Oh

Kitchen Recs
It's just a feeling you should fall
But don't let go
Is it a crisis of soul
That's convertible
I was angry now I'm not
It took a long time to come
Kitchen song
Chorus sing along
It's just another kitchen song
A set of thoughts
All made up
You've been there you've seen that
You're fat you've got clout
I'm doing nothing just observing I lay my bed down
Your god you can organise you wear leather out
I'm good perhaps too good I'm in for the shout

Your Northern Guise
I'm talking to myself
Whispering to your health
I hope you can't hear cause it's my own defense
Sing it out loud and see what happens
He told me all the facts
Said they all should go back
He gave me a salute with a painted ash moustache
He's only joking it's not his past
You and your photograph you go racing by
I can't recognise it all
You and your uncle Fritz he was close to you
Until you joined up
You and your heavy past reminds me of the stories
I've read too much
You and your straight face smile
Why not go breaking out in a loud laugh
You and your pale skin and your northern guise
Face up to it don't hide your eyes
You and your torrid ways and your scattered branches
Your 'hate families in the suburbs'
You and your 'Wirtschaftswunder' and your mind that kills
Only you know there's something up
You and your photograph you go racing by
You and your uncle Fritz he was close to you

Definitely Be
Hold my head down
Don't you worry
I'm still walking on two feet
Make it easy I'm in no hurry
'Cause it's very plain to see
I would call you
You would answer
But you're having problems with me
Lay my head down
Don't you worry
I'm still walking on two feet
I'm still walking on two feet
Definitely be
I definitely see
You don't fool me
Definitely be
I definitely see
You don't fool me
Got your head on
And your hard on
And your heart is in your mouth
You've got presence
Worn on your collar
A starch uniform with clout
I would love to take you out now
Bring you down a peg or two
You've learned your trade son
Johnny come play out
Have you got time for run-outs
Have you got time for run-out
Definitely be
I definitely see
You don't fool me
