It started off alright
We'd go out Friday night
And have a drink and do whatever made us feel alright
We'd stay out all weekend
Try taking everything
But never hurt no-one and so what
Y...
Hung around here long enough
I've seen the smooth, but only caught the rough
I've got no reason
Ooh no, I got no reason.
Disco on the radio
I ain't got no place to go
I got no reason
...
I've seen you darling, seen you hanging round town
You in a short skirt, shining eyes of deep brown
You had a dirty look, you caught me on your hook
Turn up the thermostat, I want to see you ...
There's no light in the hall,
There's no sound here at all,
Emptiness, emptiness rules,
I don't wanna come home?
You ain't sat in your chair,
No one calls no one there,
Just the clock, tick...
I fall out of bed, Put my head in the sink,
Cold water on my face, Brings me back to the brink.
I've got to get to work, You know I'm always late,
The boss is on my back, The boss is in my face....
New day dawning, I wonder what it holds for me,
Sun is shining, I Don't think that it will shine on me
I look around, nothing seems to have changed,
This dirty town, it hasn't some how rearrange...
When I'm lonely, deep in the city at night,
Nobody near me except that red neon light,
I get down on my knees and I pray,
There you are darling, bring salvation today.
A shining light, you ta...
Oh, I've been working a week, I'm tired
Yeah, I've been working a week and I'm
Just living for the weekend
Hey hey
Got some money I just got paid
Got some money and I can't wait
At si...
I've got to go, but what a prize to give
Package deal to the sun, everything is inclusive
where bullet holes scar the minarets
smoke on the horizon a beautiful sunset
Going on my Middle E...
Baby, Baby i think its time we move on now
Baby, Baby i think its time we move on now
Looking out my bedroom window
See the planes take off from Heathrow
one by one they come and go
on ...
And every move that I make
Gets recorded to tape
So somebody up there
Can keep me safe
I'm going out tonight
I've got my hair just right
I'm always looking good
For the spotlight
...
Suburban days, they last so long,
In shop and office,
We sing our song we all sing...
We ain't got nothing, nothing to do,
A big fat nothing, Nothing for me, Nothing for you...
Suburban dr...
Life means nothing, when no one knows your name,
I never had too much but I'd give it all for fame,
Baby, baby...
She's there on the TV, So beautiful on screen,
Selling me a life I've never k...
In this town, I used to be the king here,
Now I don't mean a thing here, Where did it all go wrong?
I look around, and no one knows my face here,
I feel so out of place here, Where did it all ...
Oh where I come from
I just don't conform
Get me out of here!
Leave the boredom behind
Wanna see those bright lights
Get this thing in gear
Yeah...
So we'll ride in my car
Follow th...
Tonight, tonight I'm gonna take whats mine,
tonight, tonight under that bright neon light
And if I ever find a way right out of here,
Tonight, tonight I'm gonna disappear.
Tonight, tonight oh...
You take it easy
You have your reasons
Sometimes it eats you inside
It feels like treason
You give it right back
Then they just can't take it
You mind your business
Whats yours, the...
You dumb ass fool, you lost it all,
You had your chance but moved too slow,
Now look around this lonely town,
Where every smiling face just brings you down,
Just brings you down.
You let it ...
In Birmingham, in London - what we need now is love.
Not hate and fear, blood and tears - what we need now is love.
Walking down my street tonight, west London style...
There's something in th...
I have my problems, I have my share
I can't see anyway out, I think I'm stuck here,
But then I see you, I wanna kiss you,
I can't explain it away - I think I love you.
Do you think that, we'd...
