Lyrics
Get That Thing
VERSE 1
Me, I’m just myself
No extra options here, one off the shelf
Making the most, of what I’ve got
On good days I might even think I’ve got a lot
Yeah, oh
Yeah…..
VERSE 2
You, are not like the rest
Unique, original, truly blessed
Yes you, my crazy friend
Came from a distant star
Let’s not pretend
CHORUS
Can you tell me where to find it
Maybe it could work for me
Can you tell me where to find it
Show me where to go
I just got to know
Where did you get that thing
Tell me where did you get that thing
VERSE 3
When, you do your thing
There’s something other worldly that you bring
Like watching the man, walk on the moon or
Like the shivers you get down your spine when you hear a great tune
Yeah, oh
Yeah
BRIDGE
I know it when I see it
Not everyone can be it
Gravity defying ….is how it looks to me
Did you find the secret
Is that what made you strong
Maybe I’m wrong
Maybe I’m wrong
VERSE 4
It’s not here It’s not there
I can’t seem to find it anywhere
Now it’s ok, for Gods like you
But what are the rest of us mere mortals supposed to do?
Custom Made
VERSE 1
Custom made and guaranteed
And very soon you will see exactly what I mean
Custom made and guaranteed
You know I try to give ya
A different way to be
CHORUS 1
But if you just want ordinary
Don’t come to me
Cos I got custom made (guaranteed)
Custom made (guaranteed)
Custom made (guaranteed)
Custom made and guaranteed by me
VERSE 2
Custom made comfortable and fast
Custom made designed and built to last
Well I don’t mean to brag and beat my drum
But I feel the need to tell ya, just where I’m coming from
CHORUS 2
But if you just want imitation
Don’t come to me
My work is custom made (guaranteed)
Custom made (guaranteed)
Custom made and guaranteed by me
BRIDGE
If my fee seems a little high
And you might question why
Well what you get is
One of a kind
Very rare and hard to find
Let me say to you
With confidence strong and true
Satisfaction’s guaranteed
When you take delivery
CHORUS 3
And if you don’t want something different
Don’t come to me
My work is custom made (guaranteed)
Custom made (guaranteed)
Custom made and guaranteed by me
Somebody To Rely On
CHORUS INTRO
What just happened, what did they say?
Did I miss something?
Have I been betrayed?
Give me one thing that I can believe.
And I want somebody to rely on.
VERSE 1+2
The wind is blowing
And I don’t know, what’s coming my way
Feels like disaster
Might be nothing
I just can’t say
My head is hurting
And I get nervous reading the signs
Who can I turn to?
Someone with the answers
That I cannot find
PRE CHORUS
One selfless gesture
That would be fine
One good intention
That wasn’t a lie
Just one glimpse
Of a visionary mind
But no, no, no no no
CHORUS
I need some medicine to ease the pain
Not empty promises again and again
And give me one damn winter that will bring us some rain
And I want somebody to rely on.
VERSE 3
I feel uncertain
Like nothing’s working
Living this way
Is this game over?
Feels like it’s closer
Every day.
PRE CHORUS
I went to the doctor
‘Said “what have I got”
He took one look and said
“You got a lot”
I said “please can you help me, I feel so alone”
He said “you’re not, you’re not, you’re not,
CHORUS
I need some medicine to ease the pain
Not empty promises again and again
Give me one damn winter that will bring us some rain
And I want somebody to rely on.
PRE CHORUS
One selfless gesture
That would be fine
One good intention
That isn’t a lie
Just one glimpse
Of a visionary mind
But no, no, no no no
CHORUS
I need some medicine to ease the pain
Not empty promises again and again
Give me one damn winter that will bring us some rain
And I want somebody to rely on.
Slippers
VERSE
You feel old
Your feet are cold
You don’t know
Where your slippers have gone
What went wrong
You were strong
Before long
You’ll be dead in the ground
There’s no plan
To understand
But guess what?
Good news is at hand
Your slippers are in the bathroom where you left them
VERSE
You worked hard
Punched the card
Built a world
No one could see
What’s all this?
What did you miss?
Are you not pleased?
With all of these gifts?
You’re worn down
Sad frown
Lost and alone
But look what you found
Your slippers are in the bathroom where you left them
BRIDGE
Everybody gets has their turn
You, me, them
Everybody gets their turn
They hear you
They see you
Go on, crazy child
Oh everybody has their turn
VERSE
You had love
And you had youth
Now carry this….
It’s the weight of the truth
You old fool
What did you do
You got carried away with your rules
You said what?
They wouldn’t know
They got their own fires burning
And they don’t wanna go
Your slippers are in the bathroom where you left them.
Keep It Up
Keep it up
Don’t you ever let it down
Keep it up
Even when no ones around
Sooner or later
Temptation will call
You need defences
Or you’ll fall
Keep it up
Don’t you ever let it down
Keep it up
Don’t you ever let it down
Keep it up
Everybody’s watching you
Keep it up
You know what you have to do
Sooner or later
There’ll be a fight
Between what you want and what is right
Keep it up
Don’t you ever let it down
Keep it up
Don’t you ever let it down
Just Go
VERSE 1
To late
They don’t understands you
It’s too late
Their world
You’re never gonna fit into
Their world
CHORUS 1
Go, there’s nothing to fear
Apart from the nothing that waits for you here.
Go, as fast as you can
Don’t let this place enslave you.
Go, discover the other, just go
VERSE 2
This place
They’ll never speak your language in
This place
but
One day
They’re gonna hear about you
One day
CHORUS 2
Go, follow the sound
There ain’t no point in you hanging around
Go, there’s no light in here
Time to step out of the shadow
Go, see that horizon? Just go.
BRIDGE
Go move the world around you
Go, this place will surround you
and drown you
VERSE 3
Wake up
You’re getting in to deep now
Wake up
No one
No one’s gonna save you
No one
CHORUS 3
Go, do what you do
Just like the others who went before you
Go, be what you are
Let nothing stand in your way
Go, make up your own rules, just go
BRIDGE
Go move the world around you
Go, or this place will surround you
and drown you
CHORUS 4
Go, there’s nothing to fear
Apart from the nothing that waits for you here.
Go, as fast as you can
Don’t let this place enslave you.
Go, discover the other, just go
CHORUS 5
Go, or you won’t be found
Go find your spaceship and get off the ground
You know, there ain’t nothing here
Slowly you’ll start disappearing
Go, just make it so, go
Money
VERSE
Money, you’re so unkind
Maybe one day you’ll change your mind
If not we’re through
Money, You know how hard I’ve tried
I wait for you to decide
When you’re coming home
B Section
I sold my soul
I think you know
And now you owe me something for it
Don’t you?
Truth be told
What hurts me so
Are all your other lovers
Must you be so cold?
Can’t you give me something?
Money, don’t make me chase you ‘round like before
Don’t think I can take anymore
I’ll give you this last chance
VERSE
Money, I know you lied
Still I love deep down inside
So faithfully
Money, I remember your smile
Now you’re laughing at me all the while
But I still believe
B Section (breakdown?)ww
I sold my soul
I think you know
And now you owe me something for it
Don’t you?
Truth be told
What hurts me so
Are all your other lovers
Must you treat me so cold?
Can’t you give me something
VERSE OUT
Money, don’t make me chase you ‘round like before
I just can’t take anymore
I’ll give you this one last chance
Welcome To My Hell
VERSE
Welcome to my hell
A sorry tale to tell
The evidence was clear
Your very welcome here
CHORUS
I made this bloody mess
This is not my best……….work
I think we can agree
That’s enough of me
But you’ll do very well
Welcome to my hell
VERSE
Welcome to my hell
I think it’s time to sell
I know I’ll get much less
But it’s what I’m worth I guess
CHORUS
Self pity’s such a bore
But I don’t care no more
And I alone am to blame
I’m so glad you came
I know that you’ll do well
Welcome to my hell
VERSE
Welcome to my hell
I stumbled tripped and fell
Lying on the ground
Lucky to be found
LAST CHORUS
There’s no need to explain
This is not my game
No I never had a chance
Bad luck and circumstance
And all the while I’ve known
This world can be so fine
But it never really mine
I hope that you do well
Welcome to my hell
Mark Against Your Name
Did you know?
Did you know
You’re too slow
Way too slow
You don’t know?
You didn’t know?
You’re too slow
And you won’t do nothing about it
CHORUS
That’s another
Yeah another
That’s another
Mark against your name
That’s another
Yet another
You got another
Mark against your name
VERSE 2
Worst of all
Worst of all
You’re too tall
Way too tall
Worst of all
Most of all
You’re too tall
Tell me what’s wrong with being small?
CHORUS
That’s another
Yeah another
That’s another
Mark against your name
That’s another
Yet another
You got another
Mark against your name
VERSE 3
One last thing
One last thing
You can’t sing
Please don’t sing
One last thing
One final thing
You can’t sing
Man it hurts my ears when you sing
She’s Just Got To Win
My girl, has got a little problem
That’s the way she’s always been
Don’t matter what game we’re playing
She just got to win
She’s sweet and kind and gentle
A pussy cat no doubt
But when it comes to competition
The claws are coming out
PRE A
Don’t be misled by her beautiful smile
She’ll work that angle for a while
Then you best take care
It won’t take long, you’ll discover
CHORUS
Don’t play, no way
A word to the wise
Beware, of that look in her eyes
Tell you why
She’s just got to win
VERSE 2
She might, bend the rules a little
Being ruthless ain’t no sin
The best way not to be defeated is to
Not let the game begin
I know it sounds a bit dramatic
All’s fair in love and war they say
If you don’t heed my warning
You might not live to fight another day
Don’t be surprised if there is blood
It’s just a game it’s gonna get rough
The gloves are coming off
It won’t take long, you’ll discover
CHORUS
Don’t play, no way
A word to the wise
Beware, of that look in her eyes
Tell you why
She’s just got to win
You’re not the first and you won’t be the last
To fall under the spell she casts
The end is coming fast
It won’t take long, you’ll discover
CHORUS
Don’t play, no way
A word to the wise
Beware, of that look in her eyes
Tell you why
Don’t play, no way
A word to the wise
Beware, of that look in her eyes
Tell you why
She’s just got
She’s just got to win.
To The Coast
VERSE 1
I took a drive out to the coast
That’s the place I like the most
When I stare out too the sea
Feels like it’s calling back to me
CHORUS
Water water everywhere
I walk the shore without a care
Ain’t nobody else around
I listen to the wavy sound
VERSE 2
The earth and pavement have disappeared
There’s light blue happy, and deep blue fear
I see this monumental change
And I wanna be the same
That’s the life I wanna live
This is where freedom is
Now’s the time to change my ways
I make big plans on these beach days
VERSE 4
Resolutions, salt and sand
Start to fade, back on dry land
These are what I miss the most
Until I drive back to the coast
CHORUS
Water water everywhere
I walk the shore without a care
Ain’t nobody else around
I listen to the wavy sound
Haven’t felt this way for years.
The ocean gives me new ideas
Worlds evolve as I suspend
I make big plans with my blue friend.
VERSE 3
I took a drive out to the coast
That’s the place I like the most
When I stare out too the sea
Feels like it’s calling back to me
