Live my life in the city, There's no easy way out 
The day's moving just too fast for me 
Need some time in the sunshine,  
Gotta slow it right down 
The day's moving just too fast for me  

I live my life for the stars that shine 
People say it's just a waste of time 
When they said I should feed my head 
That to me was just a day in bed 
I'll take my car and drive real far 
To where they're not concerned  
about the way we are 
Cos in my mind my dreams are real 
Are you concerned about the way I feel 

Tonight I'm a rock n roll star  

Live my life in the city, There's no easy way out 
The day's moving just too fast for me 
Need some time in the sunshine,  
Gotta slow it right down 
The day's moving just too fast for me  

Tonight I'm a rock n roll star  

SHAKERMAKER 

I'd like to be somebody else and  
not know where I've been 
I'd like to build myself a house out of plasticine Shake along with me 
I've been driving in my car with my friend  
Mr. Soft 
Mr. Clean and Mr.Ben are living in my loft 
Shake along with me!  

I'm sorry but I just don't know 
I know I said I told you so 
But when you're happy and you're feeling fine 
Then you'll know it's the right time 
It's the right time 
To shake along with me!  

Mister Sifter sold me songs 
When I was just sixteen 
Now he stops at traffic lights  
But only when they're green 

LIVE FOREVER 

Maybe I don't really want to know 
How your garden grows 
I just want to fly  
Lately did you ever feel the pain 
In the morning rain 
As it soaks it to the bone  

Maybe I just want to fly 
I want to live I don't want to die 
Maybe I just want to breath 
Maybe I just don't believe 
Maybe you're the same as me 
We see things they'll never see 
You and I are gonna live forever  

Maybe I don't really want to know 
How your garden grows 
I just want to fly Lately did you ever feel the pain 
In the morning rain 
As it soaks it to the bone  

Maybe I will never be 
All the things that I want to be 
But now is not the time to cry 
Now's the time to find out why 
I think you're the same as me 
We see things they'll never see 
You and I are gonna live forever 
We're gonna live forever 
Gonna live forever 
Live forever 
Forever  

UP IN THE SKY 

Hey you! Up in the sky 
Learning to fly 
Tell me how high 
Do you think you'll go 
Before you start falling 
Hey you! Up in a tree 
You wanna be me 
But that couldn't be 
Cos the people here they don't hear you calling 
How does it feel 
When you're inside me?  

Hey you! wearing the crown 
Making no sound 
I heard you feel down 
Well that's too bad 
Welcome to my world 
Hey you! Stealing the light 
I heard that the shine's 
Gone out of your life. 
Well that's just too bad 
Welcome to my world 

You'll need assistance with the things that you have never ever seen 
It's just a case of never breathing out 
Before you've breathed it in 
How does it feel 
When you're inside me? 

Hey you! Up in the sky 
Learning to fly 
Tell me how high 
Do you think you'll go 
Before you start falling 
Hey you! Up in a tree 
You wanna be me 
But that couldn't be 
Cos the people here they don't hear you calling 
How does it feel 
When you're inside me? 

You'll need assistance with the things that you have never ever seen 
It's just a case of never breathing out 
Before you've breathed it in 
How does it feel 
When you're inside me? 

COLUMBIA 

There we were now here we are 
All this confusion nothings the same to me 
There we were now here we are 
All this confusion nothings the same to me 

But I can't tell you the way I feel 
Because the way I feel is oh so! new to me 
No I can't sell you the way I feel 
Because the way I feel is oh so! new to me 

What I heard is not what I hear 
I can see the signs but they're not very clear 
What I heard is not what I hear 
I can see the signs but they're not very clear  

This is confusion am I confusing you? 

SUPERSONIC 

I need to be myself 
I can't be no one else 
I'm feeling supersonic 
Give me gin and tonic 
You can have it all but  
how much do you want it? 
You make me laugh 
Give me your autograph 
Can I ride with you in your B.M.W ? 
You can sail with me in my yellow submarine 

You need to find out 
'Cos no one's gonna tell you what I'm on about 
You need to find a way for what you want to say 
But before tomorrow 

'Cos my friend said he'd take you home 
He sits in a corner all alone 
He lives under a waterfall 
No body can see him 
No body can ever hear him call  

You need to be yourself 
You can't be no one else 
I know a girl called Elsa 
She's into Alka Seltzer 
She sniffs it through a cane on a supersonic train 
She made me laugh 
I got her autograph 
She done it with a doctor on a helicopter 
She's sniffin in her tissue 
Sellin' the Big Issue  

She needs to find out 
'Cos no one's gonna tell you what I'm on about 
She needs to find a way  
for what she wants to say 
But before tomorrow 

'Cos my friend said he'd take you home 
He sits in a corner all alone 
He lives under a waterfall 
No body can see him 
No body can ever hear him call

What was that sound ringing around your brain? 
Today was just a blur,  
you gotta head like a ghost train 
What was that sound ringing around your brain? 
You're here on your own  
who you gonna find to blame? 

You're the outcast - you're the underclass 
But you don't care - because you're living fast  

You're the un-invited guest who stays 'till the end 
I know you've got a problem that the devil sends 
You think they're talking 'bout you  
but you don't know who 
I'll be scraping your life from  
the soul of my shoe tonight. 

Bring it on down. Bring it down for me 
Your head's in a fish tank 
Your body and your mind can't breath 

You're the outcast - you're the underclass 
But you don't care - because you're living fast  

You're the un-invited guest who stays 'till the end 
I know you've got a problem that the devil sends 
You think they're talking 'bout you  
but you don't know who 
I'll be scraping your life from  
the soul of my shoe tonight. 

CIGARETTES & ALCOHOL 

Is it my imagination 
Or have I finally found  
something worth living for? 
I was looking for some action 
But all I found was cigarettes and alcohol  

You could wait for a lifetime 
To spend your days in the sunshine 
You might as well do the white line 
Cos when it comes on top . . .  

You gotta make it happen!  

Is it worth the aggravation 
To find yourself a job  
when there's nothing worth working for? 
It's a crazy situation 
But all I need are cigarettes and alcohol! 

You could wait for a lifetime 
To spend your days in the sunshine 
You might as well do the white line 
Cos when it comes on top . . .  
You gotta make it happen! 

DIGSY'S DINNER 

What a life it would be 
If you would come to mine for tea 
I'll pick you up at half past three 
And we'll have lasagne 
I'll treat you like a Queen 
I'll give you strawberries and cream 
And then your friends will all go green 
For my lasagne  

These could be the best days of our lives 
But I don't think we've been living very wise 
Oh no! no!  

What a life it would be

SLIDE AWAY 

Slide away - and give it all you've got 
My today - fell in from the top 
I dream of you - and all the things you say 
I wonder where you are now?  

Hold me down - all the world's asleep 
I need you now - you've knocked me off my feet 
I dream of you - we talk of growing old 
But you said please don't ! 

Slide in baby - together we'll fly 
I've tried praying -  
and I know just what you're saying to me  

Now that you're mine 
I'll find a way 
Of chasing the sun 
Let me be the one that shines with you 
In the morning when you don't know what to do 
Two of a kind 
We'll find a way 
To do what we've done  

Let me be the one that shines with you 
And we can slide away.  

Slide away - and give it all you've got 
My today - fell in from the top 
I dream of you - and all the things you say 
I wonder where you are now?

In the morning when you don't know what to do 
Two of a kind 
We'll find a way 
To do what we've done 

MARRIED WITH CHILDREN 
 

There's no need for you to say you're sorry 
Goodbye I'm going home 
I don't care no more so don't you worry 
Goodbye I'm going home  

I hate the way that even though you  
Know you're wrong you say you're right 
I hate the books you read and all your friends 
Your music's shite it keeps me up all night  

There's no need for you to say you're sorry 
Goodbye I'm going home 
I don't care no more so don't you worry 
Goodbye I'm going home  

I hate the way that you are so sarcastic 
And you're not very bright 
You think that everything you've done's fantastic 
Your music's shite it keeps me up all night  

And it will be nice to be alone  
For a week or two 
But I know that I will be  
Right back here with you  

There's no need for you to say you're sorry 
Goodbye I'm going home 
I don't care no more so don't you worry 
Goodbye I'm going home  

I hate the way that even though you  
Know you're wrong you say you're right 
I hate the books you read and all your friends 
Your music's shite it keeps me up all night
