POKERFACE | CHANGE IN YOU | PARANOIA |
LIPSTICK | SHORT CUT | HOW LOW ? |
FRIGHTENED OF THE DARK | AS I FALL | THE MARTIANS |
SKA SONG | UTOPIA | WHY DO YOU DO IT ? |
LOOK MUM (I'M ON THE RADIO) | CUT ME UP | DYNAMITE |
It's implanted now, lodged in my brain
How the phone rang on that winters day
The silence that hung on the line
When I found I'd lost a good friend of mine
I wish you'd made a cry for help
Or your facade had dropped
'Cos now you're just a memory
You'll never be forgot
All those that it could have been
I'd never have thought of you
And all those fakes that play it out
You had to see it through
We can try to work it out
Just what went wrong
But you played with a pokerhand
And you didn't let on

Amaze yourself,amuse yourself Music and lyrics by Red Flag 77
Leave the light on there's some-one in my room
Went and got a job in the city, You were searching for the great unknown Mucic and lyrics by Red Flag 77
Look mum I'm on the radio Music and lyrics by Red Flag 77
I thought it couldn't happen,I could not forsee Music and lyrics by Red Flag 77
This great country that you think you know so well Music and lyrics br Red Flag 77
I've got something to say now Music and lyrics by Red Flag 77
Just open up and take a step inside (love) Music and lyrics by Red Flag 77
I am the ideal commodity Music and lyrics by Red Flag 77
Well I've got that feeling again Music and lyrics by Red Flag 77
Sitting in the back row,watching your head grow Music and lyrics by Red Flag 77
Sat in my flat with a cat on my lap, you said "lazy", maybe Music and lyrics by Red Flag 77
You think it's entertainment, to see me mad Music and lyrics by Red Flag 77
Saw that girl again, she was walking down the street last night Music and lyrics by Red Flag 77
Cut and graze and abuse yourself
Get high by yourself when you're alone
But don't fill those animals eyes with cologne
your lipstick doesn't suit me, leave me alone
Give yourself a thrill, make yourself ill
Oh let me go home
Tie yourself down, cut youself up
Fuck with your mother then open her up
We need open spaces, not these high-rise cages
We don't want your hairsprays sprayed in our faces
your lipstick doesn't suit me, leave me alone
Give yourself a thrill, make yourself ill
Oh let me go home
Frankenstein was a philistine, him and my doctor are one of a kind
He injects me with drugs, threatens my life
I bet he does the same perverted things to his wife
your lipstick doesn't suit me, leave me alone
Give yourself a thrill, make yourself ill
Oh let me go home

It's friday the 13th and it's a full moon
Peter Cushing is outside my door
I can hear his footsteps as he walks across the floor
Can't close my eyes, can't go to sleep I'm frightened of thge dark
Can't close my eyes, can't go to sleep I'm frightened of thge dark
Boris Karloff is underneath my bed
I must Stay quiet or I will end up dead
Christopher Lee is outside in the hall
I must stay silent or he will hear my call
Can't close my eyes, can't go to sleep I'm frightened of thge dark
Can't close my eyes, can't go to sleep I'm frightened of thge dark
Bela Lugosi is looking through the blinds
He's taking people over and punishing their minds
Vincent Price is coming up the stairs
Ev'rybody's sleeping now, does anybody care
Can't close my eyes, can't go to sleep I'm frightened of thge dark
Can't close my eyes, can't go to sleep I'm frightened of thge dark

All you said to me was it's a pity, when I got left here home all alone
Always gotta be one step ahead, I don't wanna be so easily lead
It always seemed to me it was a mission, to get inside of my head
And all I know, I will never change
And I know, I will stay the same
So when I get old, not doing what I'm told
I will never change
You've taken me as far as you can, don't want no more manipulation
I'm no longer in your master plan, don't want no more humiliation
All I need's a bottle in my hand, no longer need you to try to understand
And that's the way it's gonna be
And all I know, I will never change
And I know, I will stay the same
So when I get old, not doing what I'm told
I will never change

LOOK MUM (I'M ON THE RADIO) (as if you need them!)
Look mum I'm on the radio
Look mum I'm on the radio
Look at me, I'm on the radio
Look mum I'm on the radio
Look mum I'm on the radio
Look mum I'm on the radio
Look at me, I'm on the radio
This is the moment, I've been waiting for
I'm on the radio and it's not radio 4
Look mum I'm on the radio
Look mum I'm on the radio
Look mum I'm on the radio
Look at me, I'm on the radio

Things were right one moment, at least right for me
Adjust myself completely, starting from anew
A piece of me is missing, maybe that part's you
Ringing out the old, bringing in the new
It's time for change, the change.... it's in you
Never thought I'd bother, take it in my stride
Were you that important, is it just my pride ?
When you're gonna do it, don't do things by halves
you've moved onto a better life, that's a laugh
Ringing out the old, bringing in the new
It's time for change, the change.... it's in you

Just sit back as we sink further into hell
Kids on the street ain't got nowhere to go
And all those politicians don't really wanna know
We want a short cut, to a better world
A short sharp cut, things are only getting worse
This great nation that you think you know so well
Just sit back and watch the population swell
The birth rate's rising, hear the babies cry
While unemployement's still on the rise
We want a short cut, to a better world
A short sharp cut, things are only getting worse
A short cut now, for a better world
As far as I can see things are only getting worse
So this is Britain, do you still think we're so great
Only make it eating from a golden plate
Lock yourself in behind closed doors
On the outside the crime rate soars
The pensioner at 27, I've heard she's gone
Worked for fifty years ant can't afford to put her heating on
We want a short cut, to a better world
A short sharp cut, things are only getting worse
A short cut now, for a better world
As far as I can see things are only getting worse

Something to say if you don't mind
Always in your way now
Always in your way you're so unkind, you're cruel
And now I watch you, I watch you from afar (oh ooh)
And do you know, that I know what you're doing
I know what you're doing it for, do you know that I know
And I don't want you there, as you watch me as I fall
I'm the one who cared, when the writing was on the wall
I don't want you there to watch me as I fall
I'm the one who cared I was waiting for the call
All seems such a shame now
Seems such a shame when it's all said and done
When it's all said and done now
We had our little bit, our little bit of fun
And now I watch you, I watch you from afar (oh ooh)
And do you know, that I know what you're doing
I know what you're doing it for, do you know that I know
And I don't want you there, as you watch me as I fall
I'm the one who cared, when the writing was on the wall
I don't want you there to watch me as I fall

Herded by friends, shot down by religious trends
And I believe in what I see and I feel
And you believe that you're living in a perfect world
Now so I say, what's happening today
When you're six feet under, you begin to pray
It's you UTOPIA once you've had it all in a world so small
It's you UTOPIA once you've had it all yet you asked for more
It's you UTOPIA once you've had it all in a world so small
And you UTOPIA When you've got it all then there is no more
So you take those tablets, that satisfy those habits
Do you think it's all exploitation, no way man that's my recreation
And I believe in what I see and I feel
And you believe that you're living in a perfect world
Now so I say, what's happening today
When you're six feet under, you begin to pray
It's you UTOPIA once you've had it all in a world so small
It's you UTOPIA once you've had it all yet you asked for more
It's you UTOPIA once you've had it all in a world so small
And you UTOPIA When you've got it all then there is no more

the menu of the 21st century
Pre packed, fresh tinned, take-away
pick out the bones and throw 'em away
In the High street get me anywhere
Fries and Coke served with a vacant stare
Pumped full of additives so I taste right
Just for your oral delight
Cut me up, carve me up, serve me on a plate
Dice me up, slice me up, seal my fate
Cut me up, carve me up, serve me on a plate
Dice me up, slice me up, seal my fate
Tear through my flesh, dip me in oil
Grill me, poach me, bring me to the boil
Force fed to be plump for you at christmas time
Stuff the turkey then you pour out the wine
Coat me in the Colonel's secret recipe
But dispose of your packaging carefully
If you're not sure, I know it's not right
I'm just for your oral delight
Cut me up, carve me up, serve me on a plate
Dice me up, slice me up, seal my fate
Cut me up, carve me up, serve me on a plate
Dice me up, slice me up, seal my fate

PARANOIA
And I always know when
I'll be stabbed in the back
I'll be under attack 'cos of
Paranoia - paranoia - paranoia
I'm paranoid
Will you stop staring at me
The whispers about me
I know that all can see
When I'm under attack 'cos of
Paranoia - paranoia - paranoia
I'm paranoid
Can't you see it's twisting my brain
I can hardly stay sane
Evil thoughts keep coming back
And I'll still be under attack 'cos of
Paranoia - Paranoia - Paranoia
Paranoid

Sticking your hand up you never know what you'll get
I know what you're like, standing back when you're in a fight
Hangin' round after class, the only way you'll get a pass
It's too late, gonna have to wait
Back scratch what's the catch, stuck in the middle of an embryonic hatch
Sucking at the residue, didn't help neither me nor you
I can't wait opening the gate, your future's gone and you've got it all wrong
Too late, to eat your cake
How low, How low, How low, Wake up to your life and see
Gone to join the goodie militia, promise you that I won't miss ya
It's a crying shame, things will never be the same
Too tired for the walk, so many lost years between the talk
It's too long, much too long
Desert tv. showing off your Bruce Lee, take in take out never wanna stand about
You'll never see it, when they snip at it
Got a card shove it in the slot, Oh there's Harry in a silicone valley
It's short, much too short
How low, How low, How low, Wake up to your life and see it
Sitting in the back row,watching your head grow
Sticking your hand up you never know what you'll get
you know that I've met your kind before, and I don't ever wanna meet no more
So fill up with yourself,I hope you end up on the shelf
You think you're hot, well you're fucking not
You take the biscuit, take the piss, everything you got came from a kiss
'Cos it was in the right place, how can you show your face
To you it's all a game, done for your personal gain
You wont stop 'till you've had the lot
Wake up to your life and say "How Low"

THE MARTIANS
Dressed in a vest for a test which I missed You said "crazy", I could be
Major, be a minor for once, Shell UK go out and sink yourself
Adulterers, why not have an affair with your wife
All racists have them surgically removed
I've worried for a long time that the Martians are on their way
Too late it's too late to worry
I've been watching them on TV all day
Tried to build a wall so tall I could fall
You said suicidal, no just idle
Italian, Chinese, Vietnamese,Cantonese
Holiday no it's takeaway
Muggers give yourself a pinch
Tony Blair's still packaged in parmisan cheese
BT just give me a call
All hatred we'll have it surgically removed
I've worried for a long time that the Martians are on their way
Too late it's too late to worry
I've been watching them on TV all day

WHY DO YOU DO IT ?
I'm running round the bullring with a sword in my back
It's a bloodlust orgy, my heart is beating faster
Why do you do it give me an answer
Why do you do it, there's no sense to it
It's barbaric give me an answer give, me an answer
Digging up my home with a shovel in the ground
Running from the horses, running from the hounds
It's a bloodlust orgy, my heart is beating faster
Why do you do it give me an answer
Why do you do it, there's no sense to it
It's barbaric give me an answer give, me an answer
Mad dog fighting, just another Pit Bull
You don't give a fuck about me I'm just an animal
It's a bloodlust orgy, my heart is beating faster
Why do you do it give me an answer
Why do you do it, there's no sense to it
It's barbaric give me an answer give, me an answer

DYNAMITE
'Street last night !'
Saw that girl again, asked her for a drink, she said alright
'She was alright !'
She took me home and it blew my mind like dynamite
'Dynamite !'
Well the things she did to me made me really go and see the light
'I see the light !'
When I saw you, I knew what I had to do
Now I'm swinging I'm hung up on you
Saw that girl again, she was walking down the street last night
'Street last night !'
Saw that girl again, asked her for a drink, she said alright
'She was alright !'
She took me home and it blew my mind like dynamite
'Dynamite !'
Well the things she did to me made me really go and see the light
'I see the light !'
When I saw you, I knew what I had to do
Now I'm swinging I'm hung up on you
