 ** SONG: Next To You **
 
Words and music by Sting

I can't stand it for another day
When you live so many miles away.
Nothing here is gonna make me stay,
(You) took me over, let me find a way.

I sold my house
I sold my motor, too.
All I want is to be Next To You.
I'd rob a bank
Maybe steal a plane.
You took me over,
Think I'm goin' insane.

What can I do,
All I want is to be next to you.
What can I do,
All I want is to be next to you.

I've had a thousand girls or maybe more,
But I've never felt like this before.
But I just don't know what's come over me,
You took me over, take a look at me.

What can I do,
All I want is to be next to you.
What can I do,
All I want is to be next to you.

All I want is to be next to you,
All I want is to be next to you,
All I want is to be next to you.

So many times I used to give a sign
Got this feeling, gonna lose my mind.
When all it is is just a love affair.
You took me over baby, take me there.

What can I do
All I want is to be next to you
What can I do
All I want is to be next to you
What can I do
All I want is to be next to you
What can I do
All I want is to be next to you.

All I want is to be next to you...


 ** SONG: So Lonely **
 
Words and music by Sting

Well someone told me yesterday
That when you throw your love away
You act as if you don't care
You look as if you're going somewhere

But I just can't convince myself
I couldn't live with no one else
And I can only play that part
And sit and nurse my broken heart

So lonely
So lonely
So lonely
So lonely

So lonely
So lonely
So lonely

So lonely
So lonely
So lonely

So lonely
So lonely

Now no one's knocked upon my door
For a thousand years or more
All made up and nowhere to go
Welcome to this one man show

Just take a seat they're always free
No surprise no mystery
In this theatre that I call my soul
I always play the starring role 

So lonely
So lonely
So lonely
So lonely

So lonely
So lonely
So lonely

So lonely
So lonely
So lonely

So lonely
So lonely

(guitar solo)

So lonely
So lonely
So lonely
So lonely

So lonely
So lonely
So lonely

(ad lib vocals) [These are the true lyrics]
Lonely, I'm so lonely
I feel so alone
I feel low
I feel so 
Feel so low
I feel low, low
I feel low, low, low
I feel low, low, low
I feel low, low, low
I feel low, low, low
I feel low, low, low
Low, I feel low
I feel low
I feel low
I feel so lonely
I feel so lonely
I feel so lonely, lonely, lonely, lone
Lonely, lone
I feel so alone, yeah

So lonely...

You don't have to put on the red light
Those days are over
You don't have to sell your body to the night

Roxanne
You don't have to wear that dress tonight
Walk the streets of money
You don't care if it's wrong or if it's right

Roxanne
You don't have to put on the red light
Roxanne
You don't have to put on the red light

Roxanne  (Put on the red light)

Roxanne  (Put on the red light)
Roxanne

I loved you since I knew you
I wouldn't talk down to you
I have you to tell just how I feel
I won't share you with another boy

I know my mind is made up
So put away your make up
Told you once I won't tell you again
It's a bad way

Roxanne
You don't have to put on the red light
Roxanne
You don't have to put on the red light

Roxanne  (Put on the red light)

 ** SONG: Hole In My Life **
 
Words and music by Sting

Yeah
Yeah
Yeah
Yeah
Yeah
Yeah
Yeah
Yeah

There's a hole
In my life
There's a hole
In my life

Shadow in my heart
Is tearing me apart
Or maybe it's just something
In my stars

There's a hole
In my life
There's a hole
In my life

Be a happy man
I try the best I can
Or maybe I'm just looking
For too much

There's something missing from my life
Cuts me open like a knife
It leaves me vulnerable
I have this disease
I shake like an incurable
God help me please

Oh, there's a hole
In my life
There's a hole
In my life

Yeah...

 Verse 2:   Repeat

 ** SONG: Peanuts **
 
Words by Sting, music by Stewart Copeland

It's all a game
You're not the same
Your famous name
The price of fame

Oh no
Try to liberate me
I said oh no
Stay and irritate me
I said oh no
Try to elevate me
I said oh no
Just a fallen hero

Don't wanna hear about the drugs you're taking
Don't wanna read about the love you're making
Don't wanna hear about the life you're faking
Don't wanna read about the muck they're raking

You sang your song
For much too long
The songs they're wrong
The bread has gone

Oh no
Try to liberate me
I said oh no
Stay and irritate me
I said oh no
Try to elevate me
I said oh no
Just a fallen hero

Don't wanna hear about the drugs you're taking
Don't wanna read about the love you're making
Don't wanna hear about the life you're faking
Don't wanna read about the muck they're raking

It's all a game
You're not the same
Your famous name
The price of fame

Oh no
Try to liberate me
I said oh no
Stay and irritate me
I said oh no
Try to elevate me
I said oh no
Just a fallen hero
[Oh, you're just a fallen hero]

Don't wanna hear about the drugs you're taking
Don't wanna read about the love you're making
Don't wanna hear about the life you're faking
Don't wanna read about the muck they're raking

Don't wanna find out what you've been taking
Don't wanna read about the love you're making
Don't wanna hear about the life you're faking
Don't wanna read about the muck they're raking

Don't wanna find out what you've been taking
Don't wanna read about the love you're making
Don't wanna hear about the life you're faking
Don't wanna read about the muck they're raking

Peanuts, peanuts
Peanuts

(Ad lib) [This is what it really is]
Oh, no, no
Oh, no, no
Oh, no, no
Oh, no, no
Oh, no, no
Oh


 ** SONG: Can't Stand Losing You **
[Lyrics from "Every Breath You Take - The Singles"]
 
Words and music Sting

I've called you so many times today
And I guess it's all true what your girlfriends say
That you don't ever want to see me again
And your brother's gonna kill me and he's six feet ten
I guess you'd call it cowardice
But I'm not prepared to go on like this

[I can't, I can't
 I can't stand losing
 I can't, I can't
 I can't stand losing
 I can't, I can't
 I can't]
 I can't stand losing you
[I can't stand losing you
 I can't stand losing you
 I can't stand losing you]

I see you've sent my letters back
And my LP records and they're all scratched
I can't see the point in another day
When nobody listens to a word I say
You can call it lack of confidence
But to carry on living doesn't make no sense

[I can't, I can't
 I can't stand losing
 I can't, I can't
 I can't stand losing
 I can't, I can't
 I can't stand losing
 I can't, I can't
 I can't stand losing
 I can't, I can't
 I can't stand losing
 I can't, I can't
 I can't stand losing]

I guess this is our last goodbye
And you don't care so I won't cry
But you'll be sorry when I'm dead
And all this guilt will be on your head
I guess you'd call it suicide
But I'm too full to swallow my pride

[I can't, I can't
 I can't stand losing...]

I can't stand losing you


 ** SONG: Truth Hits Everybody **
 
Words and music by Sting

Sleep lay behind me like a broken ocean
Strange waking dreams before my eyes unfold
You lay there sleeping like an open doorway
I stepped outside myself and felt so cold

Take a look at my new toy
It'll blow your head in two, oh boy

Truth hits everybody
Truth hits everyone
Oh, oh, oh
Truth hits everybody
Truth hits everyone
Truth hits everybody
Truth hits everyone

I thought about it and my dream was broken
I clutch at images like dying breath
And I don't want to make a fuss about it
The only certain thing in [life is death]   

 [<== something happened to the  
 2nd verse lyrics - The last few
 words weren't there] 

Take a look at my new toy                     
It'll blow your head in two, oh boy

Truth hits everybody
Truth hits everyone
Oh, oh, oh
Truth hits everybody
Truth hits everyone
Truth hits everybody
Truth hits everyone

Where you want to be
Won't you ever see

Truth hits everybody
Truth hits everyone
Oh, oh, oh
Truth hits everybody
Truth hits everyone
Truth hits everybody
Truth hits everyone
Truth hits everybody
Truth hits everyone
Now


 ** SONG: Born In The '50s **
 
Words and music by Sting

We were born
Born in the fifties
Born
Born in the fifties
Born
Born in the fifties
Born
Born in the fifties

My mother cried
When president Kennedy died
She said it was the communists
But I knew better

Would they drop the bomb on us 
While we made love on the beach
We were the class they couldn't teach
'Cos we knew better

We were born
Born in the fifties 
Born
Born in the fifties
Born
Born in the fifties
Born
Born in the fifties

They screamed
When the Beatles sang
And they laughed when the King fell down the stars 
Oh they should've known better

Oh we hated our Aunt
Then we messed in our pants
Then we lost our faith and prayed to the TV
Oh we should've known better

We were born
Born in the fifties
Born
Born in the fifties
Born
Born in the fifties
Born
Born in the fifties

We freeze like statues on the pages of history
Living was never like this when we took all those
    G.C.E.'s
Oh you opened the door for us
And then you turned to dust

You don't understand us
So don't reprimand us
We're taking the future
We don't need no teacher

(repeat chorus to fade)


 ** SONG: Be My Girl - Sally **
 
Words and music Sting and Andy Summers

 "Be My Girl"  [apparently, they are separate songs]

Won't you be my girl
Won't you be my girl
Won't you be my, be my,
Be my girl

Won't you be my girl
Won't you be my girl
Won't you be my, be my,
Be my girl

Won't you be my girl
Won't you be my girl
Won't you be my, be my,
Be my girl

Won't you be my girl
Won't you be my girl
Won't you be my, be my,
Be my girl

 "Sally"
(spoken over ad lib 'stab' fills) [this is the book's
 line phrasing]

I was blue and lonely, I couldn't sleep a wink
And I could only get unconscious if I'd had to much to
     drink.
There was somehow, something wrong somewhere, and each
    day seemed grey and dead
The seeds of desperation were growing in my head.
I needed inspiration, a brand new start in life,
Somewhere to place affection, but I didn't want a wife.
And then by lucky chance I saw [in] a special magazine
An ad. that was unusual, the like I'd never seen,
"Experience something different with our new imported
          toy,
She's loving, warm, inflatible and a guarantee of joy."
She came all wrapped in cardboard, all pink and 
         shrivelled down
A breath of air was all she needed to make her lose
      that frown.
I took her to the bedroom and pumped her with some
      life,
And later in a moment that girl became my wife.
And so I sit her in the corner and sometimes stroke
      her hair
And when I'm feeling naughty I blow her up with air
She's cuddly and she's bouncy, she's like a rubber ball,
I bounce her in the kitchen and I bounce her in the hall.
[And now my life is different since Sally came my way]
I wake up [in the] morning and have her on a tray
She's everything they say she was and I wear a permanent
          grin,
And I only have to worry in case my girl wears pins.

 "Be My Girl" (Reprise)

Won't you be my girl
Won't you be my girl
Won't you be my, be my,
Be my girl

Won't you be my girl
Won't you be my girl
Won't you be my, be my,
Be my girl

Won't you be my girl
Won't you be my girl
Won't you be my, be my,
Be my girl

Won't you be my girl
Won't you be my girl
Won't you be my, be my,
Be my girl
