14 The masterplan
1-Acquiesce
I don't know what it is
That makes me feel alive
I don't know how to wake
The things that sleep inside
I only wanna see the light
That shines behind your eyes
I hope that I can say
The things I wish I'd said
To sing my soul to sleep
And take me back to bed
You want to be alone
When we could be alive instead
Because we need each other
We believe in one another
And I know we're going to uncover
What's sleepin' in our soul
Because we need each other
We believe in one another
(And) I know we're going to uncover
What's sleepin' in our soul
What's sleepin' in our soul
There are many things
That I would like to know
And there are many places
That I wish to go
But everything's depending
On the way the wind may blow
I don't know what it is
That makes me feel alive
I don't know how to wake
The things that sleep inside
I only wanna see the light
That shines behind your eyes
Because we need each other
We believe in one another
And I know we're going to uncover
What's sleepin' in our soul
Because we need each other
We believe in one another
(And) I know we're going to uncover
What's sleepin' in our soul
What's sleepin' in our soul
What's sleepin' in our soul
What's sleepin' in our soul
'Cause we believe
'Cause we believe
Yeah, we believe
'Cause we believe
'Cause we believe
'Cause we believe
Because we need
Because we need
2-Undermeath the sky
Underneath a sky of red
Is a storyteller sleeping alone
He has no face and he has no name
And his whereabouts is sort of unknown
All he needs is his life in a suitcase
It belongs to a friend of a friend
And as we drink to ourselves we'll amuse ourselves
Underneath the sky
Underneath the sky again
Underneath the sky again
So wish me away to an unknown place
And I'm living in a land with no name
I'll be making a start with my brand new heart
Stop me making sense once again
All we need is our lives in a suitcase
They belong to a friend of a friend
And as we drink to ourselves we'll amuse ourselves
Underneath the sky
Underneath the sky again
Underneath the sky again
All we need is our lives in a suitcase
They belong to a friend of a friend
And as we drink to ourselves we'll amuse ourselves
Underneath the sky
Underneath the sky again
Underneath the sky again
Underneath the shy again
Underneath the sky again
Underneath the sky again
Again
Again
Again
Again
Underneath the sky again
3-Talk tonight
Sitting on my own
Chewin' on a bone
A thousand million miles from home
When something hit me
Somewhere between the eyes
Sleeping on a plane
You know you can't complain
You took your last chance once again
I landed, stranded
Hardly even knew your name
I wanna talk tonight
Until the morning light
'Bout how you saved my life
And you and me see how we are
And you and me see how we are
All your dreams are made
Of strawberry lemonade
And you make sure
I eat today
You take me walking
To where you played when you were young
I'll never say that I
Won't ever make you cry
And this I'll say
I don't know why
I know I'm leaving
But I'll be back another day
I wanna talk tonight
Until the morning light
'Bout how you saved my life
I wanna talk tonight
'Bout how you saved my life
4-Going now here
Hate the way you've taken back
Everything you've given to me,
And the way that you'd always say,
It's nothing to do with me.
Different versions of many men,
Come before you came,
All their questions were similar,
The answers just the same.
I'm gonna get me a motor car,
Maybe a Jaguar,
Maybe a plane or a day of fame.
I'm gonna be a millionaire,
So can you take me there,
I wanna be wild cause my lifes so tame.
Here Am I, going nowhere on a train.
Here Am I, growing older in the rain.
Heyyy, Heyyy, Heyyy
5-Fade away
When I was young I thought I had my own key
I knew exactly what I wanted to be
Now I'm sure
You've boarded up every door
Lived in a bubble, days were never ending
Was not concerned about what life was sending
Fantasy was real
Now I know much about the way I feel
I'll paint you the picture
'Cos I don't think you live 'round here no more
I've never even seen the key to the door
We only get what we will settle for
While we're living
The dreams we have as children
Fade away
Fade away
Now my life has turned another corner
I think it's only best that I should warn you
Dream it while you can
Maybe someday I'll make you understand
I'll paint you the picture
'Cos I don't think you live 'round here no more
I've never even seen the key to the door
We only get what we will settle for
While we're living
The dreams we have as children
Fade away
Fade away
6-The swamp song (strumentale)
7-I am the warlus
I am he as
You are he as
You are me and
We are all together
See how they run
Like pigs from a gun
See how they fly
I'm crying
Sitting on a cornflake
I'm waiting for the van to come
Corporation t-shirts stupid bloody tuesday
Man you been a naughty boy
You let you face go long
I am the egg man
We are the egg men
I am the walrus
City policeman sitting
Pretty little policeman in a row
See how they fly like lucy in the sky
See how they run
Im crying
Im crying
Im crying
Im crying
Yellow matter custard
Dripping from a dead dogs eye
crabalocker fishwife pornographic priestess
Man you been a naughty girl
You let your knickers down
I am the egg man
We are the egg men
I am the walrus
Sitting in an english garden
Waiting for the sun
But the sun dont come you get a tan from
Standing in the english rain
I am the eggman they are the eggman
I am the walrus
Expert texpert choking smokers don't you think
The joker laughs at you?
See how they smile like pigs in a sty
See how they snied
I'm crying
Semolina pilchard climbing up the eiffel tower
Elemntry penguin singing hare krishna
Man you should have seen them kicking
Edgar Allen Poe
I am the eggman
We are the eggmen
I am the walrus
8-Listen up
Listen up
What's the time said today
I'm gonna speak my mind
Take me up
To the top of the world
I wanna see my crime
Day by day
There's a man in a suit
Who's gonna make you pay
For the thoughts
That you think and the words
They won't let you say
One fine day
Gonna leave you all behind
It wouldn't be so bad
If I had more time
Sailing down the river alone
I've been trying to find
My way back home
But I don't believe in magic
Life is automatic
But I don't mind being on my own
No I don't mind being on my own
Listen up

9-Rockin' chair
I'm older than I wish to be
This town holds no more for me
All my life
I try to find another way
I don't care for your attitude
You bring me down I think your rude
All my life
I try to make a better day
It's hard enough being alone
Sitting here by the phone
Waiting for my memories
To come and play
It's hard enough sitting there
Rocking in your rocking chair
It's all to much for me to take
When you're not there
10-Half the world away
I would like to leave this city
This old town don't smell too pretty
And I can feel the warning signs
Running around my mind
And when I leave this island
I book myself into a soul asylum
'Cos I can feel the warning signs
Running around my mind
So here I go
I'm still scratching around in the same old hole
My body feels young
But my mind is very old
So what do you say
You can't give me the dreams
That are mine anyway
Half the world away
Half the world away
Half the world away
I've been lost I've been found
But I don't feel down
And when I leave this planet
You know I'd stay but I just cant stand it
And I can feel the warning signs
Running around my mind
And if I could leave this village
I'd find me a hole and I'd live in it
And I can feel the warning signs
Running around my mind
So here I go
I'm still scratching around in the same old hole
My body feels young
But my mind is very old
So what do you say
You can't give me the dreams
That are mine anyway
Half the world away
Half the world away
Half the world away
I've been lost I've been found
But I don't feel down
No I don't feel down
No I don't feel down
I don't feel down
I don't feel down
I don't feel down
I don't feel down
11-(It's good) To be free
Head like a rock
Spinning round and round
I found it in a hole
Sitting upside down
You point your finger at me
But I don't believe
Paint me a wish
On a velvet sky
You demand the answers
But dont know why
In my mind
There is no time
The little things they make me so happy
All I wanna do is live by the sea
Yeah little things they make me so happy
Buts its good, yes its good its good to be free
So what would you say
If I said to you
It's not in what you say
It's in what you do
You point your finger at me
But I don't believe
Bring it on home
To where we found
Head is like a rock
Sitting upside down
In my mind
There is no time
The little things they make me so happy
All I wanna do is live by the sea
Yeah little things they make me so happy
Buts it's good, yes it's good it's good to be free
Yeah it's good, yes it's good it's good to be free
12-Stay young
One way out is all you're ever gonna get from
Those who'll hand them out don't let it ever let it upset you 'cos
They'll put words into your mouths they're making you feel so ashamed
Making you take in the blame
Making you cold in the night
Making you question your heart and you soul
And I think that it's not quite right
Hey stay young and invinsible
Cos we know just what we are
And come what may we're unstoppable
Cos we know just what we are
Yeah we know just what we are
Yeah we know just what we are
Feed your head with all the things you need when you're hungry
Stay in bed and sleep all day as long as it's sunny cos
They'll put words into my mouth they're making me feel so ashamed
Making me take in the blame
Making me cold in the night
Making me question your heart and you soul
And I think that it's not quite right
Hey stay young and invinsible
Cos we know just what we are
And come what may we're unstoppable
Cos we know just what we are
Yeah we know just what we are
Yeah we know just what we are
Come on!!
Hey stay young and invinsible
Cos we know just what we are
And come what may we're unstoppable
Cos we know just what we are
And hey stay young and invinsible
Cos we know just what we are
And come what may my faith's unshakeable
Cos we know just what we are
Cos we know just what we are
Cos we know just what we are
Cos we know just what we are
Cos we know just what we are
Know just what we are
Know just what we are
Know just what we are
Know just what we are
13-Headshrinker
I know a girl who's lost and lonely
She's by the phone on her own
But the phones don't ring
And the birds don't sing in the tree
She lost herself in a haze of pity
And doesn't know where to run
Shes a headshrinker know what I mean
Shall we have some fun
Lost in a fog
I been treated like a dog
And I'm outta here
I got no name
And I feel no shame
And I got no fear
And I bow down to the tears of a clown
Whatever's going down's coming around
I hope you don't regret today
For the rest of your lives
For the rest of your lives
For the rest of your lives
For the rest of your lives
14-The masterplan
Take the time to make some sense
Of what you want to say
And cast your words away upon the waves
Sail them home with acquiesce
On a ship of hope today
And as they land upon the shore
Tell them not to fear no more
Say it loud, and sing it proud
Today... and then
Dance if you wanna dance
Please brother take a chance
You know they're gonna
Which way they wanna g
All we know is that we don't know
How its gonna be
Please brother let it be
Life on the other hand won't make us understand
We're all part of the masterplan
I'm not saying right is wrong
It's up to us to make
The best of all the things that come our way
Cos everything thats been has past
The answers in the looking glass
There's four and twenty million doors
Down life's endless corridor
Say it loud and sing it proud
Today...and they
Dance if you wanna dance
Please brother take a chance
You know they're gonna
Which way they wanna go
All we know is that we don't know
How its gonna be
Please brother let it be
Life on the other hand won't make us understand
We're all part of the masterplan
