I’ve got a reputation of being a man with a gift of words A romantic poetic type or so they say But i find it hard to express the way i feel about you Without getting involved with the old cliches. In the old cliches, it’s the old cliches. This song’s begun so many times […]
You sit and think that everything is coming up roses But you can’t see the weeds that entangle your feet. You can’t see the wood for the trees cos the forest is burning And you say it’s the smoke in your eyes that’s making you cry. They sold you a view from the hill. They […]
I heard a battle raging on the other side of the wall I buried my head in a pillow and tried to ignore it all. Every night when i hear you i dream of breaking down your door An avenging knight in shining armour, to rescue you from it all. From this family business, family […]
Track down a satellite, beam in the action, life lies bleeding Live in your living room, our senses on remote control overkill and overload. >from lockerbie to lebanon’s getting closer every day Hollywood to hungerford’s an impression away.

I found a new religion yesterday, i’d just cleared immigration jfk A priest got in a cadillac, the shoe shine boy sang gospel As god and his accountants drove away. You’ll see him coast to coast on live tv, in a stadium Rocked by satan just the night before The collection from the faithful is […]
Listen to me just hear me out, if i could have your attention Just quieten down for a voice in the crowd. I get so confused i don’t understand I know you feel the same way you’ve always wanted to say But you don’t get the chance, just a voice in the crowd. I don’t […]
Hang a left, turn a right We’re driving through the night We’re on the road with fred Anytime, anywhere but he’s sure to get you there That’s the road with fred With his foot right to the floor There’s a corner coming on Whiplash! He’ll overtake anywhere he doesn’t really care That’s the road with […]
