- Walking Down a Road (P. Judd, T. Finn) (5:26)
- Walking down a road hedged with roses
Time stands still forever
Somewhere in the shadows hiding
Sits an old man laughing
Talking to the wind I drank the beauty
I found no time to count the hours
Even though I do my best
Sometimes I get to thinking
But it really don't amount to much...no
Window shades are securely drawn
Childish patter is heard no more
Papers left strewn upon the lawn
And there's nobody home next door, no-one
I understand what you meant when you said I, I should stay at home
I understand what you though
When I left you on your own
Woah woah-woah woah
Da la da, da la da, da la da
I turned to my guide but just as I feared
The preaching began so I...disappeared
To a tiny door with a golden sign
That magic place of great renown
Only lines on our four dead minds
Only rags for our blinds
You know that bare boards and paper walls
They don't make any sense
When there's only
Time to kill
- Under the Wheel (P. Judd, T. Finn) (7:49)
- They said you were bright
Had stars in your eyes
They said you were bright
Had all the ideas in your head
Under the wheel
For all those years
Under the wheel
For all those tears
But now they all stand back and shout
Go on you creep, go on get out
Oh my God what are they on about
And I think I'll get on back home to my mother
Yes, I think I'll get on back home to my mother
It doesn't seem real
The way things turned out
It doesn't seem real
Now your heads full of doubt
But now they all jump back in fear
As if I really care
They just stand and stare
It's not fair
Cold and silent you lie in the dark waters of the stream
Shame and suffering have passed
But death, glorious death is just another bed to sleep
Yes death, glorious death
Is just another appointment to keep
- Amy (Darling) (P. Judd, T. Finn) (5:17)
- Oh lala lala lala
Flowers grow wild in her garden
She's self styled - I beg your pardon
Look at my girl, what a lass
A bit of all right - first class
I think she's just great
Boy oh boy what style
She's a serpentine, she's a naughty girl
Making the most of the rich mans world
Oh I, love my Amy
Ohhh ohh ohh do you blame me?
Oh my heart is aching
My loves for taking
No one will ever change the smile on her face
No one will ever share her sweet embrace
Amy darling can't you see the tears in my eyes
Amy darling can't you see that we're in paradise?
Spring time comes, tulips blooming
Do you know what she's doing to me
Look at me, the proud father
No I'd rather sit her on my knee (yeah)
Man oh man sweet harmony
She's a real good time
She's a valentine
Making the most of all she's mine
Oh I love my Amy
Ooh ooh ooh do you blame me?
Oh my heart is aching- My loves for taking
Nothing will ever change the smile on her face
No one will ever share her sweet embrace
Amy darling can't you see the tears in my eyes
Amy darling can't you see that we're in para...
- So Long For Now (P. Judd, T. Finn) (3:18)
- So a long for now
It was such a pleasant little stay
Goodbye for now
I'll be back later in the day
And I'll be singing
All we got to do (all we got to do)
Is sit here (is sit here)
There's nothing we can do (we can do)
Ho! Bright young men surround me
Looking for the future
I'm standing on the deep end
In this land of godsend
You're the reason for everything I say
You're the reason for every single day
I-I wish I had more to say
I'm sorry I always drift away
I-I wish I had more to do
I'm sorry, but I love you
You could at least give me a smile
But never mind
You're so unkind
Nice young girls surround me
Looking for the right man
The bright times have left me
Since I took to my heels and ran
You're the reason for everything I say
You're the reason for every single day
You're the reason for everything I say
You're the reason for every single day
- Stranger Than Fiction (P. Judd, T. Finn) (6:58)
- Stranger than fiction
- Larger than life
- Full of shades & echoes
- It's the story of my life
- Just like a picture book
- Daddy's gone away
- Leaving Mummy in her room
- With another one on the way
- At nights I've heard her screaming
- Through the coloured walls (de woh la)
- Oh please don't leave me alone
- Please don't leave me alone
- [spoken:] And even her friend the hippy man
- With his tarot cards to play
- Drowning in his sea of words
- Why he never has much to say
- And I've seen him standing by the river
- Singing to the birds
- Just like the mystic says
- Be careful of what you say
- Talking to himself he needs no one
- To help him on his way
- Do you?
- At nights I've heard him screaming
- Through the candle flame (de woh la)
- Oh please don't leave me alone
- Please don't leave me alone
- Time For a Change (Philip Judd) (3:46)
- You act as though
- You are a blind man who's crying
- Crying `bout all the virgins that are dying
- In your habitual dreams
- You know, seems you need more sleep
- But like a parrot in a flaming tree
- I know, it's pretty hard to see
- I'm beginning to wonder if it's time for a change
- But still you try like a fat boy
- Dancing Gershwin's blues
- But you'd rather sit at home and watch the news
- And I'm beginning to wonder if it's time for a change
- I'm beginning to wonder if it's time for a change
- Maybe (P. Judd, T. Finn) (2:59)
- And if you all had rooms
- Would you still have room for me?
- Making the way for you and
- Your dear `ol family tree
- Like a stormy sky, it's a sad song
- It's just a point of view, but a true song
- And if you all looked up
- Would you still look down on me?
- I'm just a country boy, can't you see that I'm still green
- Raising finance for the day we meet
- Gazing headlong down some empty street
- Maybe, she'll come along
- Knock me right off me feet
- Maybe, please don't be long
- I need all the help I can get
- Maybe we'll get it on, ooh lala
- And when the day breaks In our stately home we'll sit
- Remembering those nights before our hearts were set
- Hoping is not enough to live upon
- Such a far far cry, I can't go wrong
- Maybe...
- Titus (Philip Judd) (3:12)
- I found myself in silver dreams
- I'm talking in my sleep to pawns & queens outspoken words
- You know they just don't mean the same thing
- Somebody must be kiddin' me
- Somebody must be lying to me
- Oh please don't tell me
- Which is red and which is black
- When are you coming back to me babe
- Oh when are you coming back to me babe
- I saw myself in checkered lands
- I even dreamt I was the knight in command
- The bishop screamed `Don't horse around boy'
- Somebody must be kiddin' me
- Somebody must be lying to me
- And please don't tell me
- I'm losing my way
- You promised me everything now, didn't you babe?
- You promised me everything now, didn't you babe?
- Spellbound (Philip Judd) (4:59)
- Chances are, it's not that far to go
- Chances are, there's not that much to know
- When you're spellbound
- When you're spellbound, once again
- Chances are, things are going to change
- Chances are, you'll be the one who's strange
- When you're spellbound, once again
- When you're spellbound, once again
- I know it's hard to believe but it's true
- But I could never have done it without you
- The way things are, we'll get there in the end
- The way things are, you won't have to pretend
- That we're all spellbound, once again
- That we're all spellbound, once again
- I know it's hard to believe but it's true
- But I could never of done it without you (alright, alright)
- Mental Notes (Philip Judd) (0:33)
- Well I got to try something in a different key
- Take it from the top mister if you please, well I must must must
- make a mental note (repeat)
