(by Charlie Ivens)

Isabel Monteiro has a story to tell you. It’s about passion and pain; rock-bottom and redemption. It’s as compelling as it is self-confessedly hubristic, and perhaps more importantly, it’s gratifyingly entertaining and moving.

If you ask the internet the right question, you’ll find that Drugstore have been, ahem, kind of a big deal in their time. They toured with Jeff Buckley, who liked them so much he took to covering their debut single live. They toured with Radiohead, whose singer liked them so much he sang a cello-laden duet with Isabel, which reached the UK Top 20.

While the times meant Drugstore were compelled to hang around with cheery, Mod-tinged Britpoppers, their music beat a rather different path. “We had absolutely nothing to do with Britpop,” says Isabel. “We were on the shoulders of all that but we just didn’t belong.”

Had anyone actually thought about it, Drugstore would have undoubtedly been branded Alt.country – as is the case today. Isabel’s smoky vocals and pitch-dark lyrical subject matter, coupled with her new band’s minimalist, melancholic guitar and string arrangements, stick them firmly in the lovelorn, caustic company of Low, Dusty in Memphis and Leonard Cohen.

Isabel talks about “an alternative late-night Americana scene, bands like Girls and Calexico, I think we have more in common with" and this is borne out by the songs she’s written in the last 12 months, for her new Drugstore album Anatomy, out on Rocket Girl (Rocketgirl.co.uk) – home to A Place To Bury Strangers and PS I Love You – which had in the past tried and failed to snap the band up on two previous occasions.

So what happened to Drugstore? “I stopped overnight," she admits today. “I fell in love, was tired of the crazy touring carousel – and overnight I just thought: ‘I don’t want to do this anymore.’ The rest of the band were disappointed.”

Having, over a 15-year period, started and finished relationships with three band members – “I wish I had met writers and architects, but I didn’t! I just met roadies, tour managers and musicians” – things were about to change dramatically for Isabel.

After three albums on three labels, Drugstore went their separate ways in 2002, and in Isabel’s own words, “things spiralled down” into seven undeniably gloomy years. “There were hard and dark times, my universe shrank overnight. I became homeless, I was completely broke, telephone went dead, but I’m sure I’m not the only artist who’s experienced that sense of ‘Where’s everyone gone?’ and that all my connections were made out of sand.”

The singer survived, perhaps in spite of herself, on wine and hope. “Love for life kept me alive,” she says now, until September 2009, when a briefly reunited original band played a gig at Dingwalls in London, “just for fun”. It sold out. This made a lot of people – Isabel included – realise that far from being stuck in any era, Drugstore’s music nimbly hopped over the ages, from 1920s Berlin cabaret through the French chanson tradition, via The Velvet Underground’s woozy melodic charm and Tom Waits’ bar-room badinage, across PJ Harvey’s earnest intellect and The Bad Seeds’ rumbling, angry sadness.

The singer felt emboldened and, inspired by a guitar donated by a fan, work started on material for the album Anatomy. In 2010 she played London’s ICA – “I was very nervous. We were thinkin': who's gonna buy those tickets? Amazingly, it sold out.” – and a couple of festivals (including Glastonbury) with a new Drugstore.

Ever the benevolent dictator – “It was true then, it’s still true now. You’ve gotta have someone leading the boat downwards…” – Isabel held open auditions for Drugstore at legendary London bar The Troubadour, and all the while she wrote the “liberating” Anatomy blog (isabelmonteiro1.blogspot.com) that would eventually inspire their new album’s title and lyrical content. “My blog is part of the band,” she explains. “Anatomy is about exposing yourself to the core, whether it’s pretty or ugly. I think it’s both: an analytical inspection of a state of mind."

So now we have a freshly stocked Drugstore – “new cowboys”, Isabel calls them. “Ultimately, the outcome has been totally rewarding and really productive,” she says of the process. “I could have been dead now, but there was this desire to still see the sunshine another day, and I knew I just had to release those songs, tell those stories.”

This tiny sliver of optimism eventually led to Drugstore convening at a remote studio on Platt’s Eyot – an island on the River Thames near Richmond – to create Anatomy’s 12 stripped-and-whipped tracks together.

“It’s painfully intimate, shamelessly simple, devastatingly sad,”says a disarmingly candid Isabel. “And right in the middle of this fucked-up seascape, the twisted heart of our little Drugstore still beats pretty.”

That baby's going to heaven X3

These days, time is passing real slowly
Not much I feel like doing
I just wanna sleep away

Maybe, I'll get myself into a coma
Spend my whole life dreaming
I just wanna sleep away

I'm gonna, I'm gonna Sell my X6

Lately, it feels like nothing is moving
Nothing I feel like doing
Baby, gonna sleep away
Somehow, I'll get myself into a coma
Feel my body drifting
Slowly gonna slip away

I'm gonna, I'm gonna Sell my X8

That baby's gone to heaven X3

Favourite Sinner

When God comes to me
I will be shaking
Gun loaded on my knee
My fingers waiting
Gonna tell him I was born, mistaken
Then I'm gonna let my fingers slip

God help my shaking hand
I can see your light
They're lining up the dead
Gonna take another sip of your soul
Your favorite sinner

My god is just a dream
He's got the answers
This city's killing me
faster and faster
Gonna tell him I was born, broken
And then I'm gonna let myself run free

God help my burning hair
I can see your light
You're lining up the dead
Gonna take another sip of your soul
Your favorite sinner X3

Alive

I feel the time is coming
I walk into the night
Oh, I don't mind if the clock is turning
I'm going to the other side
You either die or you keep on burning
And I...and I am burning

I walked along longdistance
I'm feeling sore inside
I don't care if the sky is falling
I never get to see the light
You either die or you keep on burning
And I...and I am burning

Solitary Part Groover

I'm gonna keep my heart safe
In a special place
I'm gonna lock myself up
A hundered miles away
I don't wanna do,
What I did today

I'm gonna get a new world
Made out of paper stones
And in my plastic house
I'll never be alone
I don't wanna do, I wanna go...
Yeah, yeah, I wanna go
Yeah, yeah, I wanna go

I wanna disappear
And have no sense of time
And I've got a little secret here
And I use it every night
I don't wanna do, I wanna go...
Yeah, yeah, I wanna go
Yeah, yeah, I wanna go

If

If I could have my way with you
I would make you fall asleep
And tell you every single thing
We both know is wrong with me

Tomorrow belongs to everyone
And it's moving hopelessly
I lock the door and switch it off
Completely

If I could have you, have you, completely
If I could have you, have you, completely
If I could have you, have you, completely

Devil

You turn your back on your own flesh
You got a piece of me
You were so young, so rich
But I saw you with that mirror
Right between your feet

The world swings around you
But I could never find you
D-D-D-Devil

Never mind the way you bought
Acres of land
I saw two blonds, young girls
And every single one
You could lay your hands on

The world swings around you
But I could never find you
D-D-D-Devil
D-D-D-Devil

Extra Verses :

There’s nothing left of you now
You might as well be dead
You are so old
And so sick
The jokes you tell me
They make me sad
The world swings around you
Daddy
I could never find you
Daddy
You’re a d-d-d-devil

Saturday Sunset

We're down to the last stop
Heading for nowhere
With you walking round me
Wishing things will never help

But I'm tired of places
And saturday sunsets
I'm tired of living
Baby let's go back

This life never changes
And nothing in this world is new
You're just my sleepy baby
And I'm looking after you

Fader

I'm gonna dig myself a hole
And get my head inside
I'm gonna keep my eyes closed
Feel my heart dripping by
Life can be so ordinary
I did try to make mine good
But I've made so many mistakes

Down in my youth X4

Welcome to my house
We'll play for a while
Can't you see
There's a ghost by my side?

I'm gonna dig myself a hole
And get my head inside
I'm gonna keep my eyes closed
Feel my heart dripping by
Life can be so ordinary
I did try to make mine good
But I've made so many mistakes

Down in my youth X4

Welcome to my house
We'll play for a while

Superglider

There's a star for everyone
But some get lost in darkness
When your pretty smile is gone
When I'm looking for a
Superglider, Superglide
Superglider

??Life all in my dream, lay your eyes??
??....so called hate??

All the luck you had was gone
Tangled in a highway
And the lights were coming down
When I'm looking for a
Superglider, Superglide
Superglider

??Life always follows me, lay your eyes also green??
??smile... so called hate??

There's a star for everyone

Baby Astrolab

My baby astrolab
Let's go and take a walk outside
Before it gets too cold
I want you to hold me
And pretend you know
Every single secret this universe holds
Now and forever

My baby astrolab
My baby astrolab
Take my hand, take my heart

I hope you understand
That everysingle thing up there
Falls into nothingness

So come on baby astrolab
Let's get away before it's over
Now and forever

My baby astrolab
My baby astrolab
Take my hand, take my heart

Gravity

Funny how the stars look far away
And it makes me sad, to be surrounded
There's not much else that I can do to change
But in my dreams I see you dying

The world keeps going round
With the sun and the moon
And you and I are somehow inbetween

We are hopelessly waiting
For the sky to fall down
I put my hands up
Don't look around

Sometimes we can forget just who we are
Sometimes it's hard, to look around you
We seem to move, but never very far
And I don't know why we care about it

But the world keeps going round
With the sun and the moon
And you and I are somehow inbetween

We are hopelessly waiting
For the sky to fall down
I put my hands up
Don't look around

Nectarine

I love your blue eyes
I'm gonna tell you a story
I once drove a man to his knees
At the edge of a fall

I like your green eyes
I'm gonna tell you a secret
I once got so angry
I put a whole army to sleep

Come on baby
Do you wanna have a party?
Do you wanna have some fun?
Or do you just wanna...

I love your brown eyes
Move closer
I can remember the night
The night

My baby red eyes
Why are you shouting?
I still got the knife
That I used to get rid of that guy

Come on baby
Do you wanna have a party?
Do you wanna have some fun?
Or do you just wanna...

Accelerate

This life reminds me of a carousel
Going all the way round
And we think it's swell, don't we?
But even plastic horses get put down
Hey, we all gotta hit the ground

It's a funny business baby
As we can see
But I keep my eyes wide open
Even when I'm asleep
'cos we never know when death will
Come around
Hey, we all gotta hit the ground

Acceleration X3

It's kinda hopeless baby
As we can see
But I keep my windows open
When I'm asleep
'cos I never know if he will
Come around
Hey, we all gotta hit the gorund

Acceleration X3

This life reminds me of a...
This life reminds me of a...

Acceleration X3

Accelerate
And it looks so pretty
Accelerate
All those shiny bright lights
Accelerate
Calling my name
Accelerate
And I'm falling freely
Accelerate
And it's moving so fast
Accelerate
Slow down honey
Accelerate
Accelerate

To all the crazy people who are walking in the rain
To every single young girl who is waiting for a man
And to every desperado who is looking for a friend
To all the lonely strangers who think life is pretty bad
To all the funny people who are really rather sad
And to everyone who likes to have a lot of fun in bed

I say hello
To all the junkies
The sinners and the creeps
I say hello
To all the people in this place
I say hello
To all the drug-heads
The prostitutes and freaks
I say hello
To all the people In the world!

To all the foreign people who are always in a fight
To all the clumsy lovers who can never get it right
And to all the ones I know who’ll never get to see the light
To everyone out there who likes to hang out with the stars
To every man in black and anyone who plays guitars
And to all of you who know that there is human life on Mars

I say hello
To all the junkies
The sinners and the creeps
I say hello
To all the people in this place
I say hello
To all the drug-heads
The prostitutes and freaks
I say hello
To all the people In the world!

Mondo Cane

You can get your life stolen and die in the shade
Lie in the bed that your parents have made
You can all go to hell at a red traffic light
As a matter of speaking I couldn't care

You can stuff your beliefs and your nursery rhymes
I drink till I'm senseless whatever the wine
With no hope, no glory and no jesus christ
We all turn into ashes, welcome to the show

But hold tight and hold still
For a little while and for real
I could break it up
I could break it in two
Are you holding tight?
Are you holding still?

Holy father and son change your disguise
For all the good people and sinners alike
So I try and have fun in a rock n' roll band
And your party is over, do you understand

And the future is set in a shadowy road
You can try to walk back through the streets
that you know
But the houses are empty and nobody's home
Only sad looking dogs and welcome to the show

But hold tight and hold still
For a little while and for real
I could break it up
I could break it in two
Are you holding tight?
Are you holding still?

Yeah yeah ya...
Came from the skies
Burst through the gates
With no mercy or disguise
With their hearts set out in flames
I know; I’ve seen the masterplan...
Well I’m just a man
(I am just a man)
I’m not giving in
All the people understand
’Cos they all fell down and prayed
I know;
I’ve seen the masterplan:
“Kill the President”
They killed the President
They killed the President
Came from the skies
(Came from the skies)
In all shades of green
We can always justify
We can measure up your dreams
I know;
I’ve seen the masterplan:
“Kill the President”
They Killed the President
Yeah yeah ya...
Yeah yeah ya...
Yeah yeah ya...
They killed the President
They’ve killed the President
I’m just a man

Well I’m
So scared I might fall down
I’m feeling sober now
But I still can’t feel the ground
Tried
I tried to make demands
But it’s not that hard to sense
That things are different now
Now that I don’t feel so lonesome
Anymore
Feel so lonesome
Now that I am not afraid
At all
If you put your arms around me
I won’t fall
Now that I am not afraid
At all
But time
It takes time to make amends
Though it’s so hard to make sense
’Cos I’m feeling sober now
But I’m
Too small to take defence
Though it’s not that hard to sense
That things are different now
Now that I don’t feel so lonesome
Anymore
Feel so lonesome
Now that I am not afraid
At all
If you put your arms around me
I won’t fall
Now that I am not afraid
At all
At all
Na-na-na
Na-na-na-na-na
Na-na-na
I’m not afraid
At all...

I feel stained and I’m in pieces
In my mouth the sad taste of the past I had
A thousand wasted kisses
But another glass
And a cigarette
Just anything
To help forget the things that
Every day I still find missing
Let the whole world crash down on me
And let the curtains rise
I could do so much harm
I could do you no good
I’ll leave a stain in your heart
I would
Yeah, I’m gonna mess up your life
And make you forever blue
’Cos I could hurt you
I know I could
I know I could
Misty haze and the final rest
They say the first shall be the last
But not for me
’Cos I don’t believe it
So another glass
And a cigarette
Just any man
To help forget the things that
Every day I still find missing
Let the whole world crash down on me
And let the curtain rise
I could do so much harm
I could do you no good
I’ll leave a stain in your heart
I would
Yeah, I’m gonna mess up your life
And make you forever blue
’Cos I could hurt you
I know I could
I know I could
'Cos I could do so much harm
Yeah I could do you no good
I’ll leave a stain in your heart
I would
Yeah, I’m gonna mess up your life
And make you forever blue
’Cos I could hurt you
I know I could
I know I could

Spacegirl

Spacegirl, you had enough on this ground
Well take another deep shot
I know that life can be so cruel
We need to shake your hands and roll
Just like a freak-bell
Making such a weird sound
Well turn your radio right up

I know that life can be a pain
We need to let it all hang out, hang out
I wanna live like a spacegirl
Living like a spacegirl
I wanna live like a spacegirl

Freak-head, happy as a clean doll
Always gettikng so high
I know that life should be so good
We need to let it all hang out, hang out

I wanna live like a spacegirl
Living like a spacegirl
I wanna...
Living like...
Living like...
Living like...

Never come down

Sun gets in your eyes
So you turn away
Another sunny day
Goes by you
Is this gonna end
Or slowly drift away?
I don’t wanna go
No, I want you to stay
You don’t have to ever come down
You don’t have to make it real
Nothing’s gonna stop you just being the way you are
Nothing’s gonna change the way you feel

Never come down X4

Sun gets in your eyes
And slowly moves away
Seems a lot of time
Goes by you
Is this gonna end
Or will it drift away?
I don’t wanna go
No, I want this to stay
You don’t have to ever come down
You don’t have to make it real
Nothing’s gonna stop you just being the way you are
Nothing’s gonna change the way you feel

Never come down X4

Song For Pessoa

How sweet is the dreamers night
To wipe everything clean
In this world that will never be mine I dream

We're all looking for comfort
But haunted by pain
It takes more than one sleepless night in the rain

All the people gather to see how he lived
But tonight the poet sleeps with me
The poets sleeps

How sad is the loser's plight
Drunk in the streets
To see a flame in the dark gently move away

All the people gather to see how he lived
But tonight the poet sleeps with me
The poets sleeps

*** A great thanx to Rafet For this one ***

I Don't Wanna Be Here Without You

There was a time when we were young and true
We used to have so many points of view
We used to lie on the ground, kiss in the rain
The world outside kept looking in

You've got a job you said it was for me
But somehow things turned out so differently
We never lie on the ground or kiss in the rain
I don't wanna stay another day

I don't wanna be here without you another day

The kitchen clock is hitting half past three
Outside the world is looking happy
Funny how it can change, sunshine to rain
I don't wanna spend another day

I don't wanna be here without you another day

There was a time when we were young and true
We never do the things we used to do
Funny how it can change, love into pain
I don't wanna spend another day

I don't wanna be here without you another day

*** A great thanx to Rafet For this one ***

White magic for lovers

Leave a candle by his doorstep
With a snapshot of his face
Turn around and take a deep breath
On the first weekend of May
Keep a hair strand in your pocket
And don’t rely on any friend
Brew some Catalina Coffee
With the letters of his name
White magic for lovers
When all your love has gone away
White magic for lovers
When you hold on
Oh, you hold on
To your faith
Turn your tears back into water
And leave the bottle by his door
With a message on the cover
Saying, “To the one you love”
White magic for lovers
When all your love has gone away
White magic for lovers
When you hold on
Oh, you hold on
To your faith
White magic for lovers
When all your love has gone away
White magic for lovers
When you hold on
Oh, you hold on
When you hold on
Ooo, you hold on
To your faith

Tips For Travelling

There's a big black cat comming down the street
And a little bit of sorrow in everyone you meet

These are tips for travelling on your feet

And love's just a memory that seems so sweet
Never give them anything
Even if you're beat

These are tips for travelling on your feet

The funeral

I want to see mountains of snow in July
Fireworks crossing across the blue sky
When I go
I’m taking a few things with me
I’d like to go in the late afternoon
With the sun going down
To give way to the moon
When I go
Make sure I don’t feel a thing
I want dozens of roses surrounding my bed
Sad looking faces with pain and regret
When I go
I want the whole place painted red
All my ex-lovers will talk through the night
Heart breaking tales of passion and pride
They will say
That I had a cunt made of gold
I wanna go sideways and facing the sun
With money to spend so I can have some fun
When I go
Nothing will matter to me
Please put me somewhere
Near the sea
With one caring angel
Waiting for me
He’ll be holding my heart in it’s hand
But most of all
I’d like to go with a friend

Everything a girl should have

I could buy me a castle in a country spot
And I could have a house made out of gold
All the things
A girl can have
Have got me feeling so cold
Just thought I’ll let you know...
I could spend the summer in the South of France
And pretend that life was just one joke
Oh to have, or to have not?
Have got me feeling alone
Just thought I’d let you know...
My life, glitter and shine
My heart, star spangled cold
If only I could have
One night in your arms
Then I’ll have it all
I could buy me a diamond and a new guitar
And I could have the longest string of pearls
All the things
A girl should have
Have got me feeling so cold
Just thought I’d let you know...
And I could spend my whole life in a crystal bed
Or I could travel round and round the world
Oh to have, or to have not?
Have got me feeling alone
I Thought I’d let you know...
My life, glitter and shine
My heart, star-spangled cold
If only I could have
One night in your arms
Then I’ll have it all
I could buy me a castle in a country spot...

I know it's hard
When the evening starts
Fading
And your guiding star
Seems to be so far away
You've lost your touch
Spending far too much
Waiting
Now your weary heart
Slowly beats away
Start thinking
Start thinking now
Baby don't hurt yourself
Baby don't hurt yourself
Baby don't hurt yourself
Baby don't hurt yourself
Baby don't hurt yourself
Guess it takes some time
Maybe you should try
Thinking
Tomorrow looked so far
Only yesterday
Start thinking
Start thinking now
Baby don't hurt yourself
Baby don't hurt yourself
Baby don't hurt yourself
Baby don't hurt yourself
Baby don't hurt yourself
Baby don't hurt yourself
Baby don't hurt yourself

Song For The Lonely

He's all dressed to die
Underground behind the cloth that liberates
Masquerading
He left no reply
No photographs
No recall
Just passing through
Passing through the walls
It must have been
Some time before
For I understand
But I'm singing for the lonely yeah
Keep 'em in your minds oh yeah
I'm singing for the ones we've left behind
Lost in space and time
Keep 'em in your minds...
One single ride
With no return
No address
No mystery
And no disguises
He's lost in the night
He's a lonely boy
On a lonely ride
I'm passing through
It must have been some time time before
But I'm singing for the lonely yeah
Keep 'em in your minds oh yeah
I'm singing for the ones we've left behind
Lost in space and time
Lost in space and time
Keep 'em in your minds...
Keep 'em in your minds
Mmm-mmm
Yeah keep 'em in your minds
Oh yeah
As I'm singing for the lonely
Yeah
Singing for the ones we left behind
Lost in space and time...

I Wanna Love You Like A Man

I wanna take control
I wanna take you
Ah-ah-ha
Try to understand that my world is so strange
I need to have hope
I need to have friends
And I want you to know
That you're making me
So...
Burning with desire
You set my soul on fire
We've got all the stars
We've got the universe
And oooh...
And my heart is filled with passion
We've got such a soul connection
When the time is right
Gonna make you understand
I wanna love you like a man!
Gonna take you home
I wanna make you
Ha-ah-ha
But you don't understand that my life is so strange
Sometimes feel low
I sometimes feel pain
But I want you to know
That you're making me
So...
Burning with desire
You set my soul on fire
We've got all the stars
We've got the universe
And oooh...
My heart is filled with passion
We've got such a soul connection
When the time is right
Gonna make you understand
I wanna love you like a man!
Oh, I'm burning with desire
You set my soul on fire
We've got all the stars
We've got the universe
And oooh...
And my heart is filled with passion
We've got such a soul connection
When the time is right
Gonna make you understand
I wanna love you like a man!

Navegando

I've been running around
And I'm tired
I can feel the ground
Caving in
I can't see a thing
But I would not trust myself
With anything
It's a question of pride
And how to behave
Losing your skin
Or to be saved
Cursing your fate
The say that man can kill
The one he hates
Save me I
Am so tired of running around
Save me I
Oh I need help (Navegando
Sem parar)
Oh I need help (Navegando
Contra O Mar)
And I've tried to be tough
And live in town
But finding so hard
Just to get around
Before you can stop
A light comes flooding in
And tumbling down
But it's a rational tide
For goodness sakes
It's what you can buy
And how much it takes
Like learning to fly
But I would not bind my faith
To anything
Save me I
Am so tired of running around
Save me I
Oh I need help (Navegando
Sem parar)
Oh I need help (Navegando
Contra O Mar)
Oh I need help (Navegando)
Oh I need
(Sem parar)
Oh I need help (Navegando)
Oh I need
(Contra O Mar)
I've been running around
And I'm tired...

The Party Is Over

Daron:
Another party's over
Everybody's gone away
I should be gone but she asked me to stay
It's late but she's still talking
The things that she says
I should be gone but the strand of her hair
When she said...

Isabel:
My heart is like a fire
Maybe you should know
Just looking for desire
Got nowhere to go
Baby think I'd better stop
Before I lose control baby
Before I lose control baby...

Daron:
Another party's over
Everybody's gone away
I should be gone but she asked me to stay
It's late but she's still talking
The things that she says
I should be gone but the strand of her hair
When she said...

Isabel:
My heart is like a fire
Maybe you should know
Just looking for desire
Got nowhere to go
Baby think I'd better stop
Before I lose control baby
Before I lose control baby
Before I lose control baby

Daron:
Another party's over
Everybody's gone away...

Hate

Once
There was a time
When you could trust
And everyone was great
For a while
And you could walk at night and feel so safe
No man would ever turn a face in hate
Then
I didn't mind
Now I grind my teeth
And try to swallow
Life
Is so unkind
But if we could talk then maybe we'll be safe
Don't ever wanna see your face in hate
Hate can kill
Hate can kill
Once
There was a time
When we could trust
And everyone was great
For a while
We could walk at night and feel so safe
No man should ever turn a face in hate
Hate can kill
Hate can kill

Little Girl

Little girl
Your life has only begun
Little girl
Try to go out if you can you should try to have fun
So everything you wanna do gets a chance to be done
'Cos all you can want girl
Is under the sun
Little girl
Your life's just starting to show
Little girl
Against every step there is always a step you don't know
Now everything you feel inside is way under control
And all that you do girl
Becomes part of a show
Little girl
Life must come to an end
Little girl
Tried to be true but it all gets caught up in the end
And everything you ever wanted
Got stolen and bent
Nothing you do now
Will come back again
'Cos Everything you ever wanted
Stolen and bent
Little girl
Little girl
Razia, Nadjia...
D'you wanna ride my bike?

Wayward Daughter

If you could see the morning light
Coming through this winter sky
So the mystery unfolds
When the black turns into gold
Long time ago I had a friend
Who told me nothing matters
Then she says “Well then again, life's no laughing matter”
Look at all the crazy people
Running in the dark against the light
Look at all the crazy people
I wonder what goes on inside their minds
I think of you like no one else
Like a wayward daughter
So it seems I had to go
Blood can run like water
Look at all the crazy people
Running in the dark against the light
Look at all the crazy people
I wonder what goes on inside their minds
If you could see the morning light
Coming through this winter sky
And so the mystery unfolds
When the black turns into gold

Thin Air

Guess that is all
I have to say
It's time to say goodbye
And walk away
Hope everything we've lost
We'll find again
Another time
Or day
I've met a man
Blind as a post
He said that somehow he could understand
Then he read my hand and told me to
To make the most
Of today
Guess the world
Is filled with people
All the time
Everywhere
Guess the world
Is filled with people
And it's hanging on thin air
I hear a sound
So far away
That Crazy Captain never got to sail
But his heart travelled many miles away
Another time
Or day
Guess the world
Is filled with people
All the time
Everywhere
Guess the world
Is filled with people
And it's hanging on thin air
Guess the world
Is filled with people
All the time
Everywhere
Guess the world
Is filled with people
And it's hanging on thin air
Guess that was all
I had to say
It's time to say goodbye
And walk away
Hope everything we've lost
We'll find again
Another time
Or day

Flying Down To Rio

One day
We'll be flying down
To Rio
Where every day
The sun comes out and shines
And then
We'll be who we are
For real
Without a single worry
In our minds...
We've been running round
Like desperate fools
And every day
We struggle through
The dreams we've had
Have not come true
I feel let down
And so do you
Why?
The plans we have are made
And never mind this fate
We'll turn against the tide
And yeah
I think we've got it made
Whatever it make take
We're flying down tonight
...flying down to Rio - from here?
Where everyone
Is taken for a ride
And then
We'll be who we are
For real
Without a single worry
In our minds...
We've been running round
Like desperate fools
And every day
We struggle through
The dreams we had
Have not come true
I feel let down
And so do you
Why?
The plans we have are made
And never mind this fate
We'll turn against the tide
And yeah
I think we've got it made
Whatever it make take
We're flying down tonight
We've been running round
Like desperate fools
And every day
We struggle through
The dreams we had
Have not come true
I feel let down
And so do you
Why?
The plans we have are made
And never mind this fate
We'll turn against the tide
And yeah
I think we've got it made
Whatever it make take
We're flying down tonight
One day
We'll be flying down
To Rio
Every day
The sun comes out and shines
And then
We'll be who we are
For real
One day
We'll be flying down... I'm just rambling!

More Than Friends

Isabel:
“Let's just do it; look, we've got five minutes”

Daron:
“Can I do a backing vocal?”

Isabel:
“No!”

Daron:
“Can I? In the second verse, okay?”

Isabel:
“Okay. Oh god, what is a girl to do?
Come on, let's do it.
We now have two and a half minutes!
Can I just play the first chord so I'll pitch myself?”

Tell her I'm not gone
Tell her you're still with me
That you've been spending time
Around my home
And we never waste time sleeping
Tell her that you are not alone
Get a telephone
And tell her you're still with me
That now is the time
To be on your own
That you've spent a long time thinking
Tell her
That you are not alone
'Cos love is like
A natural flame
It takes time
To burn away
And nothing in this world
Can ever stay the same
Tell her
That we are more than friends
And love is like
A natural flame
It takes time
To burn away
And nothing in this world
Can ever stay the same
Tell her
That we are more than friends

Sweet Chili Girl

Sweet Chili girl
Walking the streets
Where other girls won't go
And no one else would meet
Where lovers lose the will
To live and fall down in defeat
And love is like a burning wheel
That goes around with the heat
Welcome to the world
Of my sweet Chili girl

One of these days
She's gonna end it all
Then everyone can take
A better look inside the hole
Even sunny days
End up with no sunshine at all
Cause all the love you crave is buried
Ten feet down below
Welcome to the world
Of my sweet Chili girl

My sweet Chili girl
My sweet Chili girl
My sweet Chili girl

My sweet Chili girl
My sweet Chili girl
My sweet Chili girl

Light Out

Take a look at me
Before I fall down
Before I slay and medicate
All the pain out

All the grooves inside my head
They've been worn down
So if you really want to stay
Turn the lights out

And if it's broke don't mend it
I'm heading now for the landing
And even though I’m descending
I feel higher

People always say that I should go out
But I only like to play form this far out

All the grooves I had inside my head
They're all worn down
So if you really want to stay
Turn the lights out

And if it's broke don't mend it
I'm heading now for the landing
And even thought I’m descending
I feel higher, turn the lights out
Turn the lights out

So take a look at me
Before I fall down
Before I slay and medicate
All the pain out
Turn the lights out
Turn the lights out

Sinner's Descent

I want salt in the wound
I want blood in the rain
Every time that I move
I want nothing but pain

All the starts in the sky
Could not light up my way
Everything fell apart
But darkness remained

Find a place in a quiet town
Where no one knows your name
Keep your head down
Don't give your heart away

And if you come across
A lost dog in the rain
Maybe you'd think of me
And kick him away

Find a place in a quiet town
Where no one knows your name
Keep your head down
Don't give your heart away

I want salt in the wound
I want blood in the rain
Every time that I move
I want nothing but pain

Can't Stop Me Now

Tied down, wasting
Could never let me go
It was too hard to break it
Deep enough to hold what felt
Like an ocean in places
Flooding up into the well
I was tied down, wasting
Yeah I was slowly turning purple and cold

I need a drink
I need a little high
Just gimme something to hold

Like a drop in the rain
That's just starting to fall
Like a runaway train
When it comes to a halt
Just like some of the things
That you can't see at all
You can't stop me now

Well today is a good day
For feeling pretty small
I could hideout in places
Get myself inside the wall
Like a bomb in the making
All you got to do is haul
I was tied down, wasting
I was slowly turning purple and cold

I need a drink
I need a little high
Just gimme something to hold

Like a drop in the rain
That's just starting to fall
Just like a runaway train
When it comes to a halt
Just like some of the things
That you can't see at all
You can't stop me now

Like a drop in the rain
Like a drop in the rain
Just like a runaway train
When it comes to a halt
Just like some of the things
That you can't see at all
You can't stop me now
No you can't stop me now
You can't stop me now
You can't stop me now

Aquamarine

Yeah I like living alone

I've been looking for someone to come my way
For I’m feeling sore and my whole body aches
And my eyes are getting weaker day by day
I’ve been looking for someone to come my way

But I like living alone
Unprotected and free
My heart is made out of stone
And only touched by the sea

This emptiness is my home
And everything that I need
My heart is made out of stone
Only touched by the sea

I've been looking for someone to hold me straight
For this narrow rope is now about to break
And my dreams are getting older day by day
I've been looking for someone to hold me straight

But I like living alone
Unprotected and free
My heart is made out of stone
And only touched by the sea

This emptiness is my home
And everything that I need
My heart is made out of stone
Only touched by the sea

But I like living alone
Unprotected and free
My heart is made out of stone
And only touched by the sea

This emptiness is my home
And everything that I need
My heart is made out of stone
Only touched by the sea

Standing still

Everyone is busy getting high
Everyone is busy getting high

Everyone is busy getting high
I'm standing still
Yeah everyone they seem to be alright
But I’m not so thrilled

And when they ask me if I’m feeling fine
I tell 'em that I’m feeling ill
'Cause everyone is busy getting high
I think I need another pill

I'm standing still
Everyone's moving 'round
While I wait for the time
When it all will be revealed

And everything will be forgotten
And all the love be dead and gone
And everyone will be forgiven
Everything under the sun

Everyone is busy getting high
Well I'm standing still
And everyone is looking for a line
I'm looking for a reel

And when they ask me if I’m feeling fine
I tell them that I’m feeling ill
'Cause everyone is busy getting high
I think I need another pill

I'm standing still
Everyone's moving 'round
While I wait for the time
When it all will be revealed

And everything will be forgotten
And all the love be dead and gone
And everyone will be forgiven
Everything under the sun
But in the meantime

And everything will be forgotten
And all the love be dead and gone
And everyone will be forgiven
Everything under the sun

Everyone is busy getting high
Well I'm standing still
And everyone they seem to be alright
I think I need another pill

I'm just standing still
Everyone is busy getting high
I'm just standing still
Everyone is busy getting high

Blackholes & Brokenhearts

I think I know what blackholes really are
A place where everybody falls apart
And I think I know dark matter intimately
It's just the stuff that's really hard to see

And as the universe's expanding
All around us, you and me
They say the end is coming
But I have to disagree
For in the end
It will stop then start again

I think I’ve cracked the meaning of this life
Just thank fuck we're all stunk in space and time
And I think there ain't no major master plan
And life is just a pretty accident
And as the universe expanding
All around us, you and me
They say the end is coming
But I have to disagree
For in the end
It will stop then start again

I think the only problem I have left
Is gravity oh what the hell is that
And I think it's sad when love affairs go wrong
But that's the topic of my other songs

And as the universe's expanding
All around us, you and me
They say then end is coming
But I have to disagree
For in the end
It will stop then start again

I think I know what blackholes really are
Honestly

Falling Rocks

Life can take you up
But it can bring you down
With every step we walk
Along the way

But if you've had enough
You should think again
And don't let falling rocks
Get in the way

Just look into a new horizon
Every time the blue turns into grey

'Cause life can break your heart
But it can make you great
Just like a running horse
We ride away

But if you ever stop
You will fade away
So don't let falling rocks
Get in the way

Just look into a new horizon
Every time the blue turns into grey
Life can take you up
But it can bring you down
So don't let falling rocks
Get in the way
Don't let falling rocks
Get in the way
Don't let falling rocks

La Brume

Sailing away
In the high afternoon
With the clouds in the sky
Starting to loom

There's a bird flying high
It reminds me of you
But it's moving away
And taking me into the blue

Now my heart decides
What the hell I should do
And if I live or die
Depending on mood

For there was a time
When the living was good
But the waves got so high
And taking me into the blue

Take me into the blue
Take me into the blue
Take me into the blue
Take me into the blue

Clouds

I thought I could take on the world
With my heart tied up with a string
But then as the end of the line came to me
It said this is the end of the road
This is the end

So I thought of a long summer night
Two lovers wrapped up in a fold
But then when I took a good look in his eyes
He said this is the end of the road
This is the end

So I thought about clouds in the sky
Theirs shapes rising out of the cold
But then when I looked at the clouds far below
It said this is the end of the road
This is the end

So I thought about nothing at all
Just drifting away in the sea
So, this is the end of the road, now I see
This is the end of the road
This is the end
This is the end

Once Isabel met an enormous bear
Isabel, Isabel didn't care
The bear was hungry, the bear was anxious
But Iasbel, Isabel didn't worry
Isabel didn't scream or scurry
She killed the beaast with her long blond hair
The quietly Isabel ate the bear

Once in a night as black as pitch
Isabel met this horrible witch
Ho Ho Isabel I'm glad to meet you
Ho Ho Isabel I'm going to eat you
But Iasbel, Isabel didn't worry
Isabel didn't scream or scurry
She showed no rage, she showed no fear
She killed the witch then she disappeared

Once Isabel met an enormous bear
But Iasbel, Isabel didn't care

Anesthesia

It was dark
On that road to heaven
As she watched
A thousand cars go by

She stood
In that dirty alley
Her face
Staring at the light

She hangs around
Everywhere
Doesn't make a sound
And doesn't care
Doesn't care

There's no way
To walk back or forward
You just let
Life slowly pass you by

Your life
Is one dirty alley
Understand
In order to pass by

She hangs around
Everywhere
Doesn't make a sound
And doesn't care
Doesn't care

Ascending

I don't wanna hurt myself
I don't wanna stop
And I can feel my fingers freeze
Just in time
In time

I don't need no sympathy
I don't need no star
By the grace of God I won't
I won't start
No I won't start

No I don't wanna make a mess
I'm gonna let it burn
We're going to a place I know
And we won't start
No I won't start
I don't wanna hurt myself, myself, myself...
I don't wanna hurt myself
Don't wanna hurt

Black Star

(Radiohead cover)

I get home from work
You're still standing in your dresssing gown
What am I to do?
And I know all the things around your head
And what they do to you
What are we coming to?
What are we gonna do?
Blame it on the black star
Blame it on the falling sky
Blame it on the satellite
That brings me home
I get on the train and I just stand about
Now that I don't think of you
I keep falling over I keep passing out
when I see a face like you
What are we coming to?
What are we gonna do?
Blame it on the black star
Blame it on the falling sky
Blame it on the satellite
That brings me home
I...
I blame it on...

*** A great thanx to Rafet For this one ***

Cover Me

When I hit the ground
When I lose my grace
Cover me
Cover me
And if I fall apart
And my smile fades
Cover me
Cover me
And I
I will be
Like a siren
Swimming in the sea
Like an angel
Flying in the night
I will be free
But cover me
And if it gets too dark
And I lose my way
Cover me
Cover me
And I
I will be
Like a siren
Swimming in the sea
Like an angel
Flying in the night
I will be free
But cover me
Cover me
Cover me
Cover me
Cover me
Cover me
Cover me
Cover me
Cover me
And I
I will be
Like a siren
Swimming in the sea
Like an angel
Flying in the night
I will be free
But cover me
Like a siren that's swimming in th sea
Like an angel that's flying in the night...

Crash Girl

There was this girl
She once hit a parked car in the street
It shook her world
Slipped the rug from under her feet
It was okay
She said it had hurt her and a stray bird
It changed her life
Now she's never gonna talk to men who'd want to meet
Anyone
Ahh
Anyone
It's not that hard
To have your whole head disappear
From the world
Just like a small piece of paper
But it's okay
I just keep walking the wrong way
Gotta change my life
Well, I'm never gonna park and I'll never get to meet
Anyone
Ahh
Anyone

*** A great thanx to Rafet For this one ***

Cut Your Hair

(Pavement cover)

Music scene is crazy
'Cos bands start up
Each and every day
I saw another one
Just the other day
A special new band
I don't remember lying
I don't remember work
I don't remember work but I don't care
Don't care
I really don't care
Did you see the drummer's hair?
Uh-uh-oo-oo-oo-oo, uh-oo-oo-oo-oo, oo-oo
Uh-oo-oo-oo-oo, uh-oo-oo-oo-oo, oo-oo...

*** A great thanx to Rafet For this one ***

Denied

I'm gonna spend
The rest of my days
Waiting for the night
Of my final day
No one should be denied
No one should have been born
This way
Open your arms
And come comfort me
If we could look inside
Would we disagree?
No one should be denied
No one should have been born
This way
Why did I let it go?
Why have I crossed this world?
Only to feel so alone
If only I could have known
No one should be denied
No one should have been born
This way
Why did I let it go?
Why have I crossed this world?
Only to feel so alone
If only I could have known
No one should be denied
No one should have been born
This way
No one should be denied
No one should be denied
No one should be denied
No one should be denied

*** A great thanx to Rafet For this one ***

Devil

( Live version )

You turned your back on your own flesh
You've got a piece of me
You were so young
And so rich
But I saw you with that mirror
Right between your feet
The world swings around you
Daddy
I could never find you
Daddy
You're a d-d-d-devil
Well never mind
The way you bought
Acres
Of land
I saw two blondes
Young girls
And every single cunt you could lay your hands on
The world swings around you
Daddy
I could never find you
Daddy
You're a d-d-d-devil
There's nothing left of you now
You might as well be dead
You are so old
And so sick
The jokes you tell me
They make me sad
The world swings around you
Daddy
I could never find you
Daddy
You're a d-d-d-devil

*** A great thanx to Rafet For this one ***

Driving

I’m doing 80 miles and it’s raining
I feel like I could fly tonight
I’m gonna get there or I’ll die
In the middle of this Christmas night
I wanted to find you
Wanted to find you
Goodbye my sweet friend
I’ll be waiting
It sure is cold up in the sky
Wish I could spend some time with you
Talk for a little while
I wanted to find you
Wanted to find you
I’m drifting slowly by and it’s raining
Whatever happened to our lives?
I’m gonna get there or I’ll die
In the middle of this Christmas night
I wanted to find you
Needed to find you

Do you ever wake up
Without a reason?
Do you ever wish your life
Kind of had a different start?

Oh how I wish I could see your mind
Wish I could get inside
The electric light

And as the hours, go by
We're all in danger
Do you wonder what it's like
The final surrender?

Oh how I wish I could see your mind
Wish I could get inside
The electric light

Get Inside My Head

Can you see the shimmer
Of the rings on my fingers
Of lovers gone by
I can still remember
All the things in this world
That can make me cry

I need to go up to see
What's going on outside my life
There are so many faces
Standing in the way
Waiting for a bus to come
And take them home
Won't you please take me
Where-ever I wanna go

I know I shouldn't
Let the fire in my heart
Get inside my head
It's shaking as I try
To find a way
To make me feel alright

But I don't remember
So I turn around and walk away
And live inside my mind
It's slowly shining, miles away
Shining, away...

I know I shouldn't
Let the fire in my heart
Get inside my head
It's shaking as I try
To find a way
To make me feel like shining, miles away
Shining, away...

Glory Box

(Portishead cover)

I'm so tired
Of playing
Playing with this bow and arrow
I'm gonna give my heart away
Leave it to the others to play
'Cos I've been a temptress too long
Oh yeah
Give me a reason to be
Give me a reason to be
A woman
I just want to be a woman...
From this time unchained
I've been looking at a different picture
Through this new frame of mind
A thousand flowers could bloom
Move over and give me some room
Yeah...
Give me a reason to love you
Give me a reason to be
A woman
A woman
Yeah
I just want to be a woman
A woman
A woman
A woman
Yeah...

*** A great thanx to Rafet For this one ***

I'm feelin' fine
I close my eyes
And let the world go
We'll never die
On days like these
I'll let you touch my...

Heart of honey
Come to me
Ain't it funny
You are my honey

I'm feeling fine
Turn around and
Let your heart go
Just do and die
And for a day
I'll let you be my...

Heart of honey
Come to me
Ain't it funny
You are my honey

Heart of honey
Come to me
Ain't it funny
You are my honey

You are my honey
Oh honey

Tonight, I need a good injection
Get away from babies little shelter
I've gotta get out and maybe
I ain't coming back

Once upon a time
I was so small
I had a silver plane
And it looked so perfect
From a distance
But all the walls were closing in
And I was living inbetween
Walking on broken glass
Fire walking up the walls
I'm walking out of the superhouse
It was perfect for a day

Tonight I need a new invention
I don't need no babies little helper
Just to stand outside
I don't mind the rain

Once upon a time
I had it all
I had a silver sun
And it looked so perfect
From a distance
But all the walls were closing in
And I was living inbetween
Walking on broken glass
Fire walking up the walls
I'm walking out of the superhouse
It was perfect for a day
Perfect for a day
Perfect for a day

Inside

I need you to hold me
I need you to help me
I needed all those things and more
But I look out a window
I saw the sun setting
Things don’t make sense anymore
If only we could find the time
Find the perfect place
But I’m shaking
In the shade
If we could find the time
If we could find the place
I’d like to see your face
Moving away from the spotlight
We don’t have to make no sense
We don’t have to get it right
It’s not what we give away
It’s what we keep inside
But now I’m not so certain
I’ve lost all my ambition
And all the drive I had before
I need you to hold me
I need you to help me
I needed all those things and more
If only we could find the time
Find the perfect place
But I’m shaking / In the shade
If we could find the time
If we could find the place
I’d like to see your face
Moving away from the spotlight
We don’t have to make no sense
We don’t have to get it right
It’s not what we give away
But what we keep inside

I Wanna Love You Like A Man

I wanna take control
And I wanna take you
Ah - aha
Defenceless!
You don't understand that my life is so
Strange
And I need to have hope
And I need to have
Friends
But I want you to know
That you're making me
So...
Burning with desire
And you've set my soul on fire
We've got all the stars
We've got the universe To hold
And my heart is filled with passion
We've got such a soul connection
And when the time is right, I'm gonna make you understand
I wanna love you like a man!
I wanna take you home
I wanna take you
Ah - aha
Defenceless!
Please try to understand that my life is so
Strange
And I sometimes feel low
Yeah I sometimes feel
Pain
But I want you to know
That you're making me
So...
Burning with desire
And you've set my soul on fire
We've got all the stars;
We've got the universe
To hold
And my heart is filled with passion
We've got such a soul connection
And when the time is right, I'm gonna make you understand
I wanna love you like a man!

I know a guy who
Goes to shows
He makes me coffee
He makes me toast
He don’t use butter
He don’t use cheese
He don’t use jelly
Or any of these
He uses vaseline
Vaseline
Vaseline
Vaseline
I know a guy who
Goes to shows
But when he’s at home and
Blows his nose
He don’t use tissues
Or his sleeves
He don’t use napkins
Or any of these
He uses magazines
Magazines
Magazines
Magazines
I know a girl who
Reminds me of Cher
She’s always changing
The colour of her hair
She don’t use nothing
From The store
She Likes to keep her hair / Real orange
She uses tangerines
Tangerines
Tangerines
Tangerines

Livia

Nothing is certain
Nothing is right
As I pull down the curtains
And shut down the blinds
As I’m closing the gates
I see your ghost wandering by
Love was a barren and desperate mistake
I’ll only get flowers down in my grave
Pour down the sadness
That only few people can taste
Livia - ahh
Sleep like an angel tonight
Livia - ahh
I’m sleeping right by your side
Livia - ahh
All that I had was in vain
Livia - ahh
Something got lost on the way
Bring all the horses
Bring all the men
Send for the ushers
Call up the band
Strip down the cupboards
I’ll show you my very last strand
I wanna see ashes
All over the place
For all the King’s horses
And all the King’s men
Do not have the power
To change this oblivious fate
Livia - ahh
Sleep like an angel tonight
Livia - ahh
I’m sleeping right by your side
Livia - ahh
All that I had was in vain
Livia - ahh
Something got lost on the way
So sad X4
Don’t ever change

My Radiohead

Johnny played guitar
And Thom sang the blues
Phil played such a wicked drumbeat
And Colin and Ed kept me amused
We in the Drugstore have
Supported many bands
But no one had a crew as good as you
No one ever made us feel this good
They’ll leave you high and dry
And take you to the bends
I feel lucky tonight
And I
Yeah, I’m thinking about you
It’s time to say goodbye
The memories we had
Good luck to all of you and
God bless
Radiohead!
Bye bye bye bye bye ...
They’ll leave you high and dry
They’ll take you to the bends
I feel lucky tonight
With a fake plastic tree
In my hand
It’s time to say goodbye
The memories we had
Good luck to all of you and
God bless
Radiohead!
I don’t belong here...

Modern Pleasures

He's a sucker, I'm his gal
We both have a bad habit
We get the same share
And we don't go out anywhere
'cos everytime we do it's such a downer
Everywhere we go it's such a drag

There are sweet lies
Way out there
But we don't feel like joining
We don't really care
We don't go out anyway
'cos everytime we leave it's such a downer
Everywhere we go it's such a drag

Modern pleasure is all we ever have
Pleasure is all we need to get

He's a scheemer, I'm his plan
We both hate the same places
But we love the same band
But we don't go out anywhere
'cos everytime we leave it's such a downer
Everywhere we go it's such a drag

Modern pleasure is all we ever have
Pleasure is all we need to get

He's a sucker, I'm his gal
Yeah, I'm his gal

It was a cold night in December
With a strange rain falling down
And I was helpless, I was lonesome
And crazy
And looking for a way out
That’s when The Devil came to me
And I fell into his arms
This is as much as I remember
When he gently spoke to me
I was such a wasted number
Like a dead one in a dream
The night The Devil came to me
And I fell into his arms
Let the streets I’m walking on fill up with shadows
I would wear this heart
With an open wound
And I would walk upon the earth
With no hope or sorrow / Alone...
By the last day of December
There was nothing left of me
Just a pale looking shadow
Of the man I used to be
The night The Devil came to me
And I fell into his arms
Let the streets I’m walking on fill up with shadows
I would wear this heart
With an open wound
I would walk upon the earth
With no hope or sorrow
Alone...

No more tears and no more pain
I'm gonna go up so high
I won't fall again

I'm burning up
I finally found a way out of these chains

I ain't having no more tears
And no more pain

No more sorrow, unsustained
Gonna fly into the night
And find my way

I'm burning up
I finally found a way out of these chains

I ain't having no more tears
And no more pain

I'm burning up
I finally found a way out of these chains

I ain't having no more tears
And no more pain

Hey Glen Hoddle, looks like you’re in trouble
And England is lookin’ outtta shape
You dream of glory, oh I do feel sorry
Only luck can save the English face
You’re so heartbroken, your defence is open
And Gazza is carrying too much weight
As for your goalie, what a roly-poly!
And your four four two is out of date
And so you think you’ve got the guts to do it - ha!
When you’re playing offside
And then missing the goal
And so Brazil will show you how to do it!
Ronaldo puts the ball into play
Juninho’s gonna go down today
Romario puts the ball into place
But the English - they were an absolute disgrace!
The Lion’s roaring while Brazil are scoring
Even God could not help the English side
’Cos everybody knows that we are better
You just roar and roar, but you don't bite
And so you think you’ve got the guts to do it - ha!
When you’re playing offside
And then missing the goal
So let Brazil just show you how to do it!
Ronaldo kicks the ball into space
Juninho runs to the left and hey!
Romario kicks the ball into space
But the English game - what an absolute disgrace!
So hey, Glen Hoddle, looks like you’re in trouble

One night in your arms

I could buy me a castle in a country spot
I could have a house made out of gold
All the things
A girl can have
Have got me feeling alone
Thought I’d let you know...
I could have my summer in the South of France
And I could have the longest string of pearls
All the things
That I can have
Have got me feeling alone
Thought I’d let you know...
My life glitters and shines
But my heart is star spangled cold
If only I could have
One night in your arms
Then I’ll have it all
I could spend my whole life in a crystal shed
And I could travel round and round the world
All the things
That I can have
Have got me feeling so cold
Thought I’d let you know...
My life glitters and shines
My heart is star-spangled cold
If only I could have
One night in your arms
Then I’ll have it all
Guess I’ll buy me a castle in a country spot...

Patchwork

(Tindersticks cover)

Well I know it's wrong
And I know it's selfish
It's such a short life
There's so little time
You see this pattern
A patchwork without any direction
All cobbled together
In odd shape and size
Take my hand now
We'll go through this mess together
But my hands are sweating
You somehow slip away
I tried to phone you
No need to shout, now
I tried to love
But never looked that hard
'Cos this blues is a swirling ocean
The green, my ambition
Red is the passion
There's a lot of red
There's a lot of red, oh...
Such a short life
It's such a short life
Yeah...

*** A great thanx to Rafet For this one ***

Perfect movie

You could make the perfect movie
You could hold the gun
And everyone would love you
They’d love you
I’d hold you ’til the sun went down
Then you could run away
And never be lonely, Baby
Even on a bad day
You could say you never knew me
I was going my own way
Everyone would love to
They’d love to
I’d hold you ’til the sun went down
We’d be the ones that got away
And no I’ll never be lonely, Baby
Even on a bad day...

Perfect motion

I’m constant and I’m
Always turning and I
Can’t say that I ever pray, but
Faith is somehow incidental
Every day of your
Life is moving and I’m
Not sure I can understand that
Everything is accidental
Take my
Hand and...
Make me feel fine
Make me feel fine
Make me feel fine
Come on, Baby!
And make me feel fine
Make me feel fine
Make me feel...
Take my hands in one
Perfect motion, then we
Can be what we ever wanted
All we do is so essential
I’m constant and I’m
Always turning but I’m
Not sure I can understand that
Everything is accidental
Make my
Day and...
Well come on, Baby!
And make me feel fine
Make me feel fine
Make me feel fine
Come on, Baby!
And make me feel fine
Make me feel fine
Make me feel...
Well come on, Baby!
And make me feel fine
Make me feel fine
Make me feel fine
Come on, Baby!
And make me feel fine
Make me feel fine
Make me feel...

Heartbroken and attractive
A sad sloppy mess
Looking for approval
And easily impressed
Beware they say
But why would I listen?
I need to know what I’ve been missing
I’m no one you can trust
A little girl lonely in curious lust
Confusion turns me upside down
I’m lost as quickly as I’m found
As soon enough it turns around
On the rebound
On the rebound
Call it fate or true love
Never force romance
Fell into a new love
Perfect love with a chance
Beware they say
But why should I listen?
When it looks so good
No one lives their lives
Doing things they say they should
Confusion...
Confusion...
Confusion turns me upside down
I’m lost as quickly as I’m found
As soon enough it turns around
On the rebound
On the rebound
Rebound... / Rebound...

So, goodbye
I hope the place you're going to, is fine
Every effort we'll put in to our lives
That every single thing we do is right

Something came over you
Yeah, something came over me too
Yeah, something came over me too

You will find
All the things you have will slide away
Doesn't matter if you waste your time
'cos everyday you spent with me
Was fine

But something came over you
Yeah, something came over me too
Yeah, something came over me too

Goodbye
Yeah, I hope the place you're going to
Is fine...

Song for the lonely

All dressed to die
Underground
Behind the clock
That liberates
Masquerading
Left no replies
No photographs
No recall
Passing through
Passing through the walls
There must have been
Some time before
... could understand
But I’m singing for the lonely
Yeah
You keep them in your mind
Oh yeah
Singing for the ones we left behind
Lost in space and time
You keep them in your mind
One single ride
With no return
No address
No Mystery
And no surprises
Caught in the light
There’s a lonely boy
On a lonely ride
It must have been
Some time before
...could understand
But I’m singing for the lonely
Yeah
You keep them in your mind
Oh yeah
Singing for the ones we left behind
Lost in space and time
You keep them in your mind
You keep them in your mind
You keep them in your mind

Every day, you make me wanna lose myself
I forget the time, I forget my health
I keep a lot of things under my bed
But I really wish you were there

Starcrossed on my face, on my head

Every day, I really need to get control
I forget my pills and I get real low
I hide a lot of things under my hair
But how I really wish you were there

Starcrossed on my face, on my head
Starcrossed...
Starcrossed...

Every night, I really try to get the best
But I want you fingers and I want your neck
I keep a lot of things under my skin
But I really wish you were there

Starcrossed on my face, on my head
Starcrossed...
Starcrossed...

Supernatural

I’ve got a crazy soul and a disconnected mind
And a heart that’s beating to a different kind of time
Don’t tell me I should change the score
Don’t tell me I don’t know how to sing
’Cos Baby, you’re my wasted King
And I’m your Queen
Woah!
It’s automatic
Woah!
Is that so?
It’s all so...
It’s all so supernatura-hal
It’s all so supernatural
Supernatural
It’s all so supernatura-hal
It’s all so supernatural
Supernatural
So in my crazy soul and my disconnected mind
There’s a lifestyle baby that you wouldn’t wanna try
Don’t ever, ever make me cry
Don’t tell me I don’t know how to sing
’Cos Baby, you’re my wasted King
And I’m your Queen
Well we were crossing the border
And this workman comes up to me / And he says,
“Hey girl, why are you hiding there?”
And I said, “I’m hiding from my dream!”
Woah!
It’s automatic
Woah!
Is that so?
It’s all so...
It’s all so supernatura-hal
It’s all so supernatural
Supernatural...

Under The Moon

Promises of a good life
And I'm still waiting
The weather changes
Like you do
I keep looking in second hand stores
For something new

And I wanna scream
How I wish I could be someone you'd choose
But I'm not complaining
I'm just under the moon
I'm not complaining
I'm just under...

Supersonic lovers
Walk by my window
I change the song
But I can't change you
I see a storm in the pale blue sky
But the pale blue sky is you
I'm not complaining
I'm just under the moon
I'm not complaining
I'm just under moon

What Every Girl Should Know

When you wish upon a star
Don't tell him maybe
Even when all you have left
Are pretty scars
When you need a friend to talk
'cos his love has gone too far
Oh but the memories
Stay in the heart
Stay in the heart

When the feeling's running out
Don't tell him maybe
Think of all the times he told you
Not to cry
When you need a helping hand
When you're somewhere in the dark

Oh but the memories
Stay in the heart
Stay in the heart

When The Bottle Is Dry

Everybody's talking about my drinking
Like everybody knows how to live my life
'Cos I can fall on the ground
And lose track of my senses
But I only lose my head when the bottle is dry
Everybody tells me I need changing
They count and count the times that I've crossed the line
Yes I've been crazy at times
I know that I've been a pain dear, sorry
But I've only lost my head when the bottle was dry

*** A great thanx to Rafet For this one ***
