Mirror in the bathroom
Please talk free
The door is locked
Just you and me
Can I take you to a restaurant
That's got glass tables
You can watch yourself
While you are eating
Mirror in the bathroom
I just can't stop it
Every Saturday you see me
Window shopping
Find no interest
In the racks and shelves
Just ten thousand reflections
Of my own sweet self, self, self, self, self
Mirror in the bathroom
You're my mirror in the bathroom
You're my mirror in the bathroom
You're my mirror in the bathroom
Mirror in the bathroom
Recompense
For all my crimes
Of self defense
Cures you whisper
Make no sense
Drift gently into
Mental illness
Mirror in the bathroom
Please talk free
The door is locked
Just you and me
Can I take you to a restaurant
That's got glass tables
You can watch yourself
While you are eating
Mirror in the bathroom
Mirror in the bathroom
Mirror in the bathroom
Mirror in the bathroom
Mirror in the bathroom
Mirror in the bathroom

Just out of spite,
I confess I've ruined three lives
Now don't sleep so tight
Because I didn't care till I found out that one of them was mine.
Night after night time time after time.
Done too much of both types of w(h)ining.
Still wasn't right fight after fight
Till "Get out of my life get away from me get away from that gun"
"No it's not a joke it's cards on the table time
Yes I could have phoned
I could have spoke
But how to break the news without beaking your heart
Being dead don't hurt,
No only dieing
Cards on the table time,
Sometimes it's right to say goodnight."
Always searching for paradise,
I'll admit that I'm good as blind
Darling I confess yes I've ruined three lives
And didn't care till I found out that one of them was mine.
I confess
Our love seems like a punishment
And I confess,
If it's all the same to you I'll stay indifferent
I confess I confess I confess
I confess I confess I confess.
No-one wins and there's no denying,
Don't pretend like you don't know why,
Just a little word here a little push there Darling
I confess look I confess that I don't really care
I confess I confess I confess.
Out like a light,
Another boy who's given up trying,
Blinded by fright,
He scream my life's not open,
Please get out,
I know I'm shouting,
I like to shout.
It's not a joke it's cards on the table time
It's not a joke it's cards on the table time
I could have phoned
I could have spoke
But how to break the news without beaking your heart
Being dead don't hurt,
No only dieing
Cards on the table time,
Sometimes it's right to say goodnight."
Always searching for paradise,
I'll admit that I'm good as blind
Darling I confess yes I've ruined three lives
And didn't care till I found out that one of them was mine.
I confess
I deserve some type of punishment
I confess
If it's all the same to you I'll stay indifferent
I confess I confess I confess
I confess I confess I confess
I confess I confess I confess
I confess I confess I confess
I confess I confess I confess

Two dozen other dirty lovers
Must be a sucker for it
Cry, cry but I don't need my mother
Just hold my hand while I come to a decision on it
Sooner or later your legs give way, you hit the ground
Save it for later, don't run away and let me down
Sooner or later you'll hit the deck, you'll get found out
Save it for later, don't run away and let me down, you let me down
Black air and seven seas, all rotten through
But what can you do?
I don't know how I'm meant to act with all of you lot
Sometimes I don't try
I just, "Na-na-na-na-na-na-na-na-na-na-na
Na-na-na-na-na-na-na-na-na-na-na"
(One, two, three, four)
Sooner or later your legs give way, you hit the ground
Save it for later, don't run away and let me down
Sooner or later you'll hit the deck, you'll get found out
Save it for later, don't run away and let me down, you let me down
You runaway and runaway and let me down
Two dozen other stupid reasons
Why we should suffer for this?
Don't bother trying to explain them
Just hold my hand while I come to a decision on it
Sooner or later your legs give way, you hit the ground
Save it for later, don't run away and let me down
Sooner or later you'll hit the deck you'll get found out
Save it for later, don't runaway and let me down, you let me down
You run away, run away, run away, run away, run away
Run away and let me down
Run away, run away, run away, run away, run away, run away, run away
Run away and let me down

Guess there's no use in hangin' 'round
Guess I'll get dressed and do the town
I'll find a crowded avenue
Though it will be empty without you
I can't get used to losing you
No matter what I try to do
Gonna spend my whole life through
Loving you
Called up some girl I used to know
After I heard her say, hello
Couldn't think of anything to say
Since you're gone it happens every day
I can't get used to losing you
No matter what I try to do
Gonna spend my whole life through
Loving you
I can't get used to losing you
No matter what I try to do
Gonna spend my whole life through
Loving you
I'll find somebody wait and see
Who am I kidding, only me
'Cause no one else could take your place
Guess that I am just a hopeless case
I can't get used to losing you
No matter what I try to do
Gonna spend my whole life through
Loving you
Can't get used to losing you
No matter what I try to do
Gonna spend my whole life through
Loving you

I just found out the name of your best friend
You been talkin' about yourself again
And no one seems to share your views
Why doesn't everybody listen to you kid?
How come you never really seem to get through, is it you?
Talk about yourself again, you
Talk about yourself
Always you, you, you
Talk about yourself again
She's on a holiday
She's got her summer frock on
Suck on an ice cream
It's meltin' in the hot sun
First date's made you pray for more
I wanted you, wanted
Everybody knows the score
I wanted you, wanted
What are we pretendin' for?
Let's talk about ourselves on the floor
Let's talk about yourselves, nothing more I promise
Talk about ourselves again
I just found out the name of your best friend
Talk, talk, talk about yourself again
Yes I just found out the name of your best friend
I just found out the name of your best friend
You been talkin' about yourself again
And no one seems to share your views
Why doesn't anybody listen to you kid?
How come you never really seem to get through, is it you?
Talk about yourself again, you

Always you, you, you
Talk about yourself again, again, again

I've never been one for the punch-up
But look I really hate those nazis
A certain something starts to wind me up
How could I hate them oh so violently
When two swords slashing at each other
Only sharpen one another
And in the long run even he's your brudda'
Said even though that c*nt's a nazi [nazi]
Always attack those things in someone else,
Reflections that you can't face in yourself,
To make precious fascistic feeling gone
It makes you turn into a bigger one
Because ...
Two swords slashing at each other
Only sharpen one another
And in the long run even he's your brudda'
Said even though that c*nt's a nazi [nazi]
Fighting the Front or just fronting a fight?
Sometimes it's hard to see the left from the right
Are we angry or are we looking for peace?
Or just tryin' to win the war...
...by killing all the enemy off
Just to kill all the enemy off
Kill the enemy off
Kill the enemy off
I've never been one for the punch-up
But look I really hate those nazis [nazis]
A certain something gets to wind me up
How could I hate them oh so violently
When two swords slashing at each other
Only sharpen one another
And in the long run even he's your brudda'
Said even though that c*nt's a nazi [nazi]
Even though that c*nt's a nazi [nazi]
Even though that c*nt's a nazi [nazi]

Don't attempt to explain this incredible strain
Now confusion's become far too simple a word for it
Is what you make
That's the usual mistake
If you're happy with pain you can take it from me
That they're all out to get you
They're painting your life in a permanent grey
They're all out to get you
It takes more than tears to get rid of the stains
Sometimes
You're scared you might slip when you're holding a knife
Lose your fingers or more in a lathe on the nightshift
You're scared that your babies
Get born with no legs
You're so scared of death
You don't know what life is
So they're. . .
All out to get you, all over nothing
They're painting your life in a permanent way
They're all out to get you, but all out forgetting
It takes more than tears to get rid of the stains sometimes
Until you accept that you're just like the others
You're a boy or a girl
Then a man or a woman
And your clothes never fit
And your skin's the wrong colour
So you make do with fear
You get more than you need.
Yes they're all out to get you, all over nothing
They're painting your life in a permanent grey
They're all out to get you, but all out for getting
It takes more than tears to get rid of the stains
Sometimes
It takes more than tears
It takes more than tears
It takes more than tears
To get rid of the stains.

All set luncheonette,
Kitchenette to let
I bet to get hamburgerette again.
We met in a launderette and kissed beneath the air jet
No threat no sweat
Another one in the back of the net.
When I met Jeanette,
Substitute Ronette,
She said "Will you remember?"
Said I could never forget her
Au naturalette,
Her mom's a millionette
So we shared one last cigarette and swapped false addresses,
Jeanette,
Jeanette.
Dangerous
She's like damp dynamite
Oh boy, enjoy, have a nice night
Won't you promise to wrote me whenever you can
Make sure you warn me if you're coming to Birmingham.
I get Jeanette
Substitute Ronette
She said "Will you remember?"
Said I could never forget her,
Jeanette
No no no I'll never forget you.
Touching your skin has proved one thing,
That love's still exciting.
We're getting there
We're nearly there
Just one final fling,
Pushing into a new love steady deep and strong
Steady on
You know we shouldn't talk like this.
I met Jeanette

This world is upside down
The rights and wrongs don't get much wronger
Mistakes found in the past
Turn into rules protecting power
It's falling down, it weighs a lot
So you should not depend on it
This world is upside down
But look, I can't hang on for much longer
Sugar and stress, do everything at least twice
Catch your fingers in your private vices
Sugar and stress, with a heart like ice
Hope Heaven comes in a number of size
These thoughts are so unfair
If something's there then it's worth taking
We know where our hearts are, right behind our wallets
Yes and that's where they're staying
Grow up together but we grow apart
Always climbing up is our downfall
A change of blood or a change of heart
Another change of address will do no good
Sugar and stress, do everything at least twice
Catch your fingers in your private vices
Sugar and stress, with a heart like ice
Hope Heaven comes in a number of size
This world is upside down
The rights and wrongs don't get much wronger
Mistakes found in the past
Turn into rules protecting power
It's falling down, it weighs a lot
So you should not depend on it
This world is upside down
But look, I can't hang on for much longer
Sugar and stress, do everything at least twice
Catch your fingers in your private vices
Sugar and stress, with a heart like ice
Hope Heaven comes in a number of size
Sugar and stress
Catch your fingers in your private vices
Sugar and stress
Hope Heaven comes in a number of size
This world is upside down
This world is upside down
This world is upside down
But look, I can't hang on for much longer

There's a training course
boys and girls of real ambition
start a new job in a factory
where they're making ammunition
but it makes them think of stealing
when they read between the lines
through the owners of this funfair
you won't find a ride you like
just get-a-job, get-a-job
manufacture rubbish
although no one can afford it
you could make a profit
more than anyone deserves
so you find you're left with poison
so you dump it in our water
and so create the kind of problems
only radiation cures
through get-a-job, get-a-job
oh you young people are revolting
8 to 5 should give the jolt needed
in a few years you won't feel quite the same
you'll be playing their get-a-job games
there's a training camp when
you come from from saving nations
get a new job and a new leg
social rehabilitation
every time you thing of leaving
you get caught between the lines
it's the training for the funfair
you get taken for a ride
you!
just get-a-job, get-a-job
just get-a-job, get-a-job

I told my friend I'd check for you
He told me that he liked you too
But then I saw him kissing you
I could've died when he said, hands off she's mine
Said hands off she's mine
Hands off she's mine
Hands off she's mine, I want her all the time
Hands off she's mine, hands off she's mine.
I knew that this was real although
It usually comes mixed up with fear.
I knew that I could wait
Although it just might take a thousand years.
Said hands off she's mine
Hands off she's mine
Hands off she's mine, until the end of time
Hands off she's mine, hands off she's mine.
La, la, la, la,
La, la, la, la,
La, la, la, la,
La, la, la, la.
Now we're going steady, been together several weeks
I check out all the other guys who we see on the streets
When I say, hands off she's mine
Hands off she's mine
Hands off she's mine, it takes up all my time
Hands off she's mine, hands off she's mine.
I said hands off me DAUGHTER
I tell ya get yer hands off me DAUGHTER
C'mon mek me said don't mess around on ya,
C'mek mek me tell ya don't want ta get ya.
La, la, la, la,
La, la, la, la,
La, la, la, la,
La, la, la, la.
Funny how the best things never last for every day
I thought she was my girlfriend
'Till I heard that someone else was saying,
Hands off she's mine. Hands off she's mine.
Hands off she's mine. Hands off she's mine.
Hands off she's mine. Hands off she's mine.
Hands off she's mine. Hands off she's mine.
Hands off she's mine. Hands off she's mine.
Hands off she's mine.

Every story has to be about something
I suppose this one says
I lose my head
As the feeling starts to grow you know?
I can feel love thumping at the doors of my heart
Feel love thump as it tears me apart
Feel love pump as the worrying starts
I can feel love thumping at the doors of my heart again
At the doors of my heart again
I can feel love thump
Bom-bom, be bom-bom
Everybody needs someone
They can cling to now and then
No more defense, no more pretense
No reasons to explain it
You can feel love thumping at the doors of your heart
Feel love thump as it tears you apart
Feel blood pump as the worrying starts
And you can feel love thumping at the doors of your heart again
At the doors of your heart again
You can feel love thump
Bom-bom, be bom-bom
Bom-bom, be bom-bom
This one your unity rocker, Lord
Stick him in your living room and turn off the light eh
Bet you wouldn't know if he was black or white
Boy, say what's the use in fighting?
Man say, I say you shouldn't really fight
Tek him to a disco tek
Tek him to a pub eh
Tek him to a blues and then
You play him rub a dub eh
Say you shouldn't really fight, man say
Say you shouldn't really fight
Each and every day I walk through the streets
And I see man and man war and kill each other
Because you are black or you are white
So what's the use in fighting? War alright
Because it's strictly love and unity
We a deal in today
And that we will never throw away
We will never throw away, war alright
I say just because you're brown
You no fe g'wan like a clown
Just because you're white
You no fe broke a likkle fight eh
Say what's the use in fighting, boy
I say, you shouldn't really fight
Every time it happens, seem to act a little touched
In this at least, you're just like me
I think we think too much
Why can't we just
Feel love thumping at the doors of our heart
Feel love thump as it tears us apart
Feel blood pump as the worrying starts
I can feel love thumping at the doors of my heart again
At the doors of my heart again
I can feel love thump
Bom-bom, be bom-bom
I can feel love thump
Bom-bom, be bom-bom
At the doors of my heart again
At the doors of my heart again
I say, I can feel love thump
Bom-bom, be bom-bom
Bom-bom, be bom-bom

It's too late now
It's twenty past two
I spent the night just watchin' you
I watched you dance
I watched you move
Can't breath and still i watched you move away
Now i think quite a lot as i stare at my shoes
About all these things that i put myself through
Now there's nothing to say
And there's nothing to do
You're just too nice to talk to
Too nice to talk to
You're too nice to talk to
You're too nice to talk to
The Radcliffs wouldn't come after you
I glance but you just stared me through
Felt such a fool i felt you knew
But you might tell me to go away
Now i think quite a lot of my own point of view
Is that all i have that's in common with you
EMOTIONS SO GUARDED
My heart is retarded
You're too nice to talk to
Too nice to talk to
You're too nice to talk to
You're too nice to talk to
This evening hasn't gone like i planned
Should i take the situation in hand
Can't go on but i can't seem to dance
You chain my feet
I stamp and stamp and stamp
Because nothing i do ever seems to be right
The same dance of mine
Every saturday night
Out the window
You might say I'm out of of my mind
But you're too nice to talk to
Too nice to talk to
You're too nice to talk to
Too nice to talk to
You're too nice to talk to
Too nice!

Rotating head, keeps on the right side
Coiled up and tense remains on the lookout
Expects to be shot or get given the bullet
Rotating head tries to look on the bright side of things
Rotating head, friends in high places
No need to guess what he's got in that briefcase
A mind like a gin-trap, one swollen ankle
The rotating head tries to stay on the right side of things
On the right side of things
Living on tip-toe
Waiting for the next step
The wages of death
What a life for a swivelhead
Understand, underhand, underarm protection
Each new passer-by a new wave of suspicion
In less than an hour the plane will be leaving
The lights and the cameras
Then sleep on a prayer and a wing, rotating
Living on tip-toe
Waiting for the next step
The wages of death
What a life for a swivelhead
Rotating head look on the bright side
Coiled up and tense remains on the lookout
A mind like a gin-trap, one swollen ankle
The rotating head tries to stay on the right side of things
That's the right side of things

Yes, I'll be down your street again quite soon
And don't ignore me when I wave at you
For although I'm looking rather sad
I'm all you've ever really had
And when you're desperate, you will hold me
Hold me to that
Took your hat off in Wisconsin
Took your head in Vietnam
Just dying to become a man
Well, I am your flag
Spend all of my time just looking
For the big hit
So long getting there
There's no time left to use it
So let's raise a smile of victory
Impressed in dental surgery
When you need cover, you can use me
Buried at sea
Freedom's just a new deodorant
The money's spent, and you've been had
You don't believe me? Ask your dad
I am your flag
So, as I fly so proudly, you will see
That you won't dare break up this family
See the happy children on parade
With wooden guns that mother made
And see me dancing in the breeze
That blows them away
I ran into Northern Ireland
I ran into Afghanistan
Dying to become a man?
I am your flag

It's a one shot magazine, give it a spin
Open your mouth slide the barrel in
If you don't like it just don't do it again
Itchy finger, finger, trigger, trigger
Click click, click click click
One in thirty five is saying sorry through a bottle
Say it's your job to scrape a living up, that's all it does
Well think it back over it, hurts twice as much as living
Itchy finger, finger, trigger, trigger
Faster faster faster faster
One shot, this is it, did you delay
You call it a nightmare, now I call it a day
You hold yourself steady at the edge of the bed
As you say finger, finger, trigger, trigger
Click click, click click click
Click click click
Faster faster faster faster
Faster faster faster faster
Faster faster faster faster

Yes, I've seen you go to work in your big car
Yes, you're fat and can afford to be tasteless
You're a big shot
You want the whole lot
And if I like it or not
You still control me
You tell me what to think and what to be
I like it best in the freezing winter, boy
I like to sneer as I sail past your bus stop
I watch you struggle and it gets me red hot
I wander 'round in my empty office block
Big shot
I want the whole lot
And if you like it or not
I still control you
I tell you what to think and what to do
So you listen to the smoking industry
You listen to the guys in the factories
You listen to the wealth and the misery
You listen to the power of money
For a big shot
Who wants a whole lot
And if you like it or not
He'll probably get it
He'll tell you when to beg and when to sit
You look like a government minister
Or a high ranking military officer
I don't think you care
You're just a big shot, yeah
Yes, I've seen you go to work in your big car
Yes, you're fat and can afford to be tasteless
You're a big shot
Who wants a whole lot
And if I like it or not
You still control me
You tell me what to think and what to be

a valentine from a politician
three pages of your dog's ambitions
the stabbed lover and the furious bunny
stare too long and your eyes go funny
yes i agree we're reading tissue paper but
we can talk about real things later
cheated cheated
win a greenhouse to warm your sex life
cheated cheated
i read about the victims crying all night
news...blurred photos of the latest plane crash; news,
girl shivers as she heards the car door slam; news,
t.v. guides you through uncomfortable questions
doctor advises it's the communist problem
to change the truth until
it's worth money
it's a joke, but it's not that funny
cheated.
our correspondent made to wait in the lobby
torn to pieces by three have a go bobbies
young swimmers in these sun dialling times
sweeping the nation with a dance called the breadline
it's in our water, and our education
we are oppressed into association
cheated cheated
it's a joke, but it's not that funny
cheated cheated
change the truth until it's worth
money
cheated cheated
win a greenhouse to warm your sex life
cheated cheated
read about the victims crying all night
cheated cheated
it's a joke but it's not funny
cheated cheated
change the truth until it's worth money

cheated cheated
missed the point because you were too
busy faking it

The only limits we set
what can we get away with?
in that at least we're the same
the only way we find of hiding the hurt we feel
is more unnecessary pain
each time you
draw in like a breath
it comes out like a knife
you feel like offering yourself out
tonight
on what a fight
the little you can expect to get
to get from anyone else
makes you look after number one
the only helping hand
you'll ever be offered
is the one at the end of your own arm
draw in like a breath
it goes tight like a wire
you're trying to shout
but your lungs are on fire
draw in like a breath
it comes out like a knife
you feel like offering yourself
shoplifting my little brother
shoplifting my little sister
said all you got to do is
just a forward through the door
but when they come fe check you out
you no come back for more
shoplifting my little brederen
shoplifting my little sister
tell me which one would you prefer
one hundred pound fine
or three months in prison
me old cock sparra?
shoplifting shoplifting
shoplifting, but a shoplifting

Cross your fingers, say you're on high
Pretend you're in debt and see what life brings
But all of this taking things as they come
Tends to make you forget to put anything in
The longer you dwell, the more it's like hell
You sit by the well just making a wish
It would be a shame to take too much blame
Look, we're all the same, it's only a game
Ackee 1-2-3
Ackee 1-2, 1-2-3, did I just catch you laughing?
Ackee 1-2-3
Ackee 1-2, 1-2-3
Forward, where the knocks are hardest
Some to failure, some to fame
Never mind the cheers or hooting
Keep your head and play the game
Try to keep your feet on the ground
Without getting them stuck in the mud
You will soon be over the moon or twice as hot as the sun
Ackee 1-2-3
Ackee 1-2, 1-2-3, did I just catch you laughing?
Ackee 1-2-3, ackee-ackee-ackee 1-2-3
Ackee 1-2, 1-2-3
Ackee, ackee 1-2-3
Cross your fingers, say you're on high
Pretend you're in debt and see what life brings
But all of this taking things as they come
Tends to make you forget to put anything in
The longer you dwell, the more it's like hell
You sit by the well just making a wish
To make it plain, I'll sing it again
We're all the same, it's only a game

I've never been one for the punch-up
But look I really hate those nazis
A certain something starts to wind me up
How could I hate them oh so violently
When two swords slashing at each other
Only sharpen one another
And in the long run even he's your brudda'
Said even though that c*nt's a nazi [nazi]
Always attack those things in someone else,
Reflections that you can't face in yourself,
To make precious fascistic feeling gone
It makes you turn into a bigger one
Because ...
Two swords slashing at each other
Only sharpen one another
And in the long run even he's your brudda'
Said even though that c*nt's a nazi [nazi]
Fighting the Front or just fronting a fight?
Sometimes it's hard to see the left from the right
Are we angry or are we looking for peace?
Or just tryin' to win the war...
...by killing all the enemy off
Just to kill all the enemy off
Kill the enemy off
Kill the enemy off
I've never been one for the punch-up
But look I really hate those nazis [nazis]
A certain something gets to wind me up
How could I hate them oh so violently
When two swords slashing at each other
Only sharpen one another
And in the long run even he's your brudda'
Said even though that c*nt's a nazi [nazi]
Even though that c*nt's a nazi [nazi]
Even though that c*nt's a nazi [nazi]

Compromise around the corner
Can you hear the accountants call?
Could you refuse another dollar?
Could you stop yourself from falling?
So in between the sleepless nights
You dream that you are winning fights
But then it happens, dreadful thing
A wave appears too big to swim
You're drowning, you're drowning.
Buy a beach before next summer?
How do you feel in the morning?
If the light's an awful bother
I could always close the curtains.
Just close your eyes and count to ten
See if you still remember when
Your life seemed easy, you had friends
But that was different than that was then
You're drowning, you're drowning
Round and round and round
You're drowning
In a frenzy now
You're drowning
You want fe go in a de ocean, a so me say
I saw you drowning in slow motion, and now me learn
Far too late to make a commotion
Too late for you to show easy motion
A say you go down to the bottom
Say you can't reach the top
Get stuck on the bottom
Say you can't reach the top
Two days later say they find you 'pon the rocks
Say ha ha ha ha ha bad luck!
Eh? so ...
Tell yourself until you're certain
Can you hear the accountants call?
You'll buy a beach before next summer
Swim away and leave it all.
So underwater deaf and blind
Under such pressures you might find
A secret right before the end
That makes you want to breathe again
You're drowning, you're drowning
Round and round and round
You're drowning
Inner frenzy now you're drowning
Round and round and round and round
You're drowning, drowning
You said you're unhappy
And you've taken all these tablets
Just turn on the television

Something shows in your face
Aren't you forgetting yourself
Nearly let your mask slip
Twist and crawl, twist and crawl, twist and crawl
Twist and crawl, twist and crawl, twist and crawl
Emotion packed in every tear
Emotion mirrors your fears
Smile and say hello dear
Twist and crawl, twist and crawl, twist and crawl
Twist and crawl, twist and crawl, twist and crawl
Walk into a niteclub
See you standing in there
Both your eyes are on me
Wonder what makes you care
Wonder what makes you stare
Walk into a niteclub
All your friends are in there
Is that really blond hair?
Why don't you play fair,
You could be in Mayfair?
You broke my heart in several pieces
Not supposed to be that easy
Have to read the books again
Twist and crawl, twist and crawl, twist and crawl
Twist and crawl, twist and crawl, twist and crawl
But you can't hurt me anymore
I haven't got a heart no more
No feelings get in my way
Twist and crawl, twist and crawl, twist and crawl
Twist and crawl, twist and crawl, twist and crawl
Did you think that i'd return
Emotions all i need to learn
Now you're gonna feel the same
Vice-a-versa love and pain
Vice-a-versa love and pain
Did you think that i'd return
Emotions all i need to learn
Now you're gonna feel the same
Vice-a-versa love and pain
Vice-a-versa love and pain
Now i've made a new way
Now my mind is rearranged
Now i can't be sure again
Twist and crawl, twist and crawl, twist and crawl
Twist and crawl, twist and crawl, twist and crawl
Are we really happy or maybe just pretending
I can't tell the difference
Twist and crawl, twist and crawl, twist and crawl
Twist and crawl, twist and crawl, twist and crawl
I can have a new face
I can have a new body
I can have a new boy
I can have a new girl
I can have a new world
I can have a new face
I can have a new body
I can have a new boy
I can have a new girl
I can have a new world
I can have a twist and crawl
I can have a twist and crawl
Twist and crawl, twist and crawl, twist and crawl

Rotating head, keeps on the right side
Colied up and tense remains on the lookout
Expects to be shot or get given the bullet.
Rotating head tries to look on the bright side of things.
Rotating head, friends in high places
No need to guess what he's got in that briefcase
A mind like a gin-trap, one swollen ankle.
The rotating head tries to stay on the right side of things,
On the right side of things.
Living on tip-toe,
Waiting for the next step,
The wages of death
What a life for a swivelhead.
Understand, underhand, underarm protection
Each new passer-by a new wave of suspicion.
In less than an hour the plane will be leaving
The lights and the cameras
Then sleeep on a prayer and a wing
Rotating.
Living on tip-toe,
Waiting for the next step,
The wages of death
What a life for a swivelhead.
Rotating head look on the bright side
Colied up and tense remains on the lookout.
A mind like a gin-trap, one swollen ankle.
The rotating head tries to stay on the right side of things,
That's the right side of things.

Did you lie through your teeth did you lie in the dark?
Which side of the bed did the argument start?
Who slammed the door with a stupid, glib remark?
Who started the next operation on our hearts?There is no cushion, feel nothing at all.
When you're too tired to beg, I'm unwilling to crawl.
So either...
...you've got to big, or I've always been too...small.
That means, I would lose your hand, but I'm scared, scared that I might fall, so...
...let me lie through my teeth, let me lie in the dark.
On this side of the bed, where the argument start[ed].
Yes, I slammed the door with a stupid, glib remark.
Who started the next operation on our hearts?A slap in the face, it could come to that soon.
Look out, sweep by me say, "Please don't come into the room."
I won't hesitate, I won't let you make me lose.
So don't come into my rage 'cause I'm scared, scared what I might do, just...
...let me lie through my teeth, let me lie in the dark.
Miles away from the bed where the argument starts.
Look, I've stopped my own mouth, I've stopped making remarks,
But please, no more operations on my heart...on my heart.

She said to leave it till the end of the party
Do it now, you know there's never a next time
How come the feeling that it's only just started
Pull back your cover, I could love you for all time
But do it now, you know there's never a next time.
The bees are busy,
Now there's gold on the hill
The branches waving
But our hearts are wrapped up inside
And then you leave me, so I start missing you a lot
No argument oh do I love you or not
No argument, you have all the love that I see as mine
Pull back your cover, I could love you for all time
But do it now you know there's never a next time.
She said to leave it till the end of the party
How come the feeling that it's always just starting
The bees are busy,
Now there's gold on the hill.
The branches waving
But our hearts are wrapped up inside Soon as you leave me then I start
Missing you a lot
No argument oh do I love you, I love you or not.
Oh treat him like a baby please,
All night.
Oh treat him like a baby please,
All night.
Strength is not the same as anger
Put the taste back into hunger
Searching the box?
Looking for what?
I love you, I love you or not?
Strength is not the same as anger
Put the taste back into hunger
Searching the box?,
Looking for what?
Pushing the gear back into top?
Put the first back into class
Lose your bottle break the glass
You'll wind up high and dry with just this slow cold comfort.
Oh treat him like a baby please,
All night.
Love you or not?
Oh treat him like a baby please.
