RUNNING UP THAT HILL
vKate Bushv

It doesn't hurt me
You want to feel how it feels?
You want to know, know that it doesn't hurt me?
You want to hear about the deal I'm making?
You
If I only could, be running up that hill
You and me
If I only could, be running up that hill

And if I only could
Make a deal with God
And get him to swap our places
Be running up that road
Be running up that hill
Be running up that building
If I only could, oh ..

You don't want to hurt me
But see how deep the bullet lies
Unaware that I'm tearing you asunder
There is a thunder in our hearts .. baby

There's so much hate for the ones we love?
Tell me, we both matter, don't we?
You
If I only could, be running up that hill
You and me
If I only could, be running up that hill
You and me won't be unhappy

And if I only could
Make a deal with God
I'd get him to swap our places
Be running up that road
Be running up that hill
Be running up that building
If I only could, oh ..

C'mon, baby, c'mon, c'mon, darling,
Let me steal this moment from you now
C'mon, angel, c'mon, c'mon, darling,
Let's exchange the experience, oh ..

And if I only could
Make a deal with God
And get him to swap our places
Be running up that road
Be running up that hill
With no problems

If I only could, be running up that hill
If I only could, be running up that hill

WHERE IS MY MIND
vBlack Francis [Michael Charles Thompson]v
The Pixies

Ooooooh
With your feet in the air and your head on the ground
Try this trick and spin it, yeah
Your head will collapse
But there's nothing in it
And you'll ask yourself

Where is my mind

Way out in the water
See it swimmin'

I was swimmin' in the Carribean
Animals would hide behind the rocks, yeah
Except the little fish
But they told me, he swears
Tryin' to talk to me to me to me

Where is my mind

Way out in the water
See it swimmin'?

With your feet in the air and your head on the ground
Try this trick and spin it, yeah
Your head will collapse
If there's nothing in it
And you'll ask yourself

Where is my mind

Way out in the water
See it swimin'
Ooooh

BIGMOUTH STRIKES AGAIN
vJohnny Marr & Steven Morrisseyv
The Smiths

Sweetness
Sweetness I was only joking when I said
I'd like to smash every tooth in your head
Oh sweetness
Sweetness I was only joking when I said
By rights you should be bludgeoned in your bed

And now I know how Joan of Arc felt
Now I know how Joan of Arc felt
As the flames rose to her roman nose
And her discman started to melt

Bigmouth la da dum da da
Bigmouth la da da da, bigmouth strikes again
And I've got no right to take my place
In the human race
Oh
Bigmouth la da dum da da
Bigmouth la da da da
Bigmouth strikes again
And I've got no right to take my place
In the human race

And now I know how Joan of Arc felt
Now I know how Joan of Arc felt
As the flames rose to her roman nose
And her megadrive started to melt

Bigmouth la da dum da da
Bigmouth la da da da
Bigmouth strikes again
And I've got no right to take my place
In the human race
Oh
Bigmouth la da dum da da
Bigmouth la da da da bigmouth strikes again
And I've got no right to take my place
In the human race

JOHNNY AND MARY
vRobert Palmerv

Johnny's always running around, trying to find certainty
He needs all the world to confirm, that he aint lonely

Mary counts walls, knows he tires easily

Johnny thinks the world would be right, if it would buy, truth from him
Mary says he changes his mind, more than a woman

But she made her bed, even when the chance was slim

Johnny says he's willing to learn, when he decides, he's a fool
Johnny say's he'll live any where, when he earns time to

Mary combs her hair, says she should be use to it

Mary always edges her bets, she never knows, what to think
She says that he still acts, like he's being discovered

Scared that he'll get caught, without a second thought

Johnny feels he's wasting his breath, trying to talk, sense to her
Mary says he's lacking a real, sense of proportion
So she combs her hair, knows he tires easily

Johnny's always running around, trying to find certainty
He needs all the world to confirm, that he aint lonely

Mary counts walls, says she should be use to it

THE BALLAD OF MELODY NELSON
vJean-Claude Michel Vannier and Serge Gainsbourgv

"Pour l'amitié .. l'amitié entre homme et femme, impensable
Parce que .. il y a toujours sous-jacent le désir animal"

This is the story of
Melody Nelson
Apart from me no one
Ever took her in his arms
Under her thumb
Ice in the sun

Oh my Melody, my

She's nothing but love, poor
Melody Nelson
Her life was more said than done
But her days were numbered now
Count fourteen falls
Fifteen ??

A baby tiger was
Melody Nelson
Forever hurrying in the sun
Just as dangerous as a child
With a gun
Shooting me down

Oh my Melody, my
Melody Nelson
Still playing hurting games for fun
As adorable as dumb
Death to the sound
To what's going down

Down

HOLOCAUST
vAlex Chiltonv

Your eyes are almost dead
Can't get out of bed
And you can't sleep

You're sitting down to dress
And you're a mess
You look in the mirror

You look in your eyes
Then you realize

Everybody goes
Leaving those
Who fall behind

Everybody goes
As far as they can
They don't just care

They stood on the stairs
Laughing at your airs

Your mother's dead
She said
"Don't be afraid"

Your mother's dead
You're on your own
She's in her bed

Everybody goes
Leaving those
Who fall behind

Everybody goes
As far as they can
They don't just care

You're a wasted face
You're a sad-eyed lie
You're a holocaust

I FEEL YOU
vMartin Gorev
Depeche Mode

I feel you
Your sun it shines
I feel you
Within my mind
You take me there
You take me where
The kingdom comes
You take me to
And lead me through
Babylon

This is the morning of our love
It's just the dawning of our love

I feel you
Your heart it sings
I feel you
The joy it brings
Where heaven waits
These golden gates
And back again
You take me to
And lead me through
Oblivion

This is the morning of our love
It's just the dawning of our love

I feel you
Your precious soul
And I am whole

I feel you
Your rising sun
My kingdom comes

I feel you
Each move you make
I feel you
Each breath you take
Where angels sing
And spread their wings
My love's on high
You take me home
To glory's throne
By and by

This is the morning of our love
It's just the dawning of our love

JACKIE
vSinead O'Connorv

Jackie left on a cold, dark night
Telling me he'd be home
Sailed the seas for a hundred years
Left me all alone
Now I've been dead for twenty years
I've been washing the sand with my ghostly tears
Searching the shores for my Jackie-oh

And I remember the that day the young man came
Said, "Your Jackie's gone, he's lost in the rain"
And I ran to the beach
Laid me down

"You're all wrong", I said
As they stared to the sand
"That man knows the sea like the back of his hand
He'll be back some time
laughing at you"

And I've been waiting all this time
For my man to come
Take his hand in mine
And lead me away
To unseen shores

I've been washing the sand with my salty tears
Searching the shore these long years
And I'll walk the sea, forever more
Till I find my Jackie-oh
Jackie-oh
Jackie-oh
Jackie-oh
