My makeup is dry and it cracks on my chin I’m drowning my sorrows in whisky and gin The lion tamer’s whip doesn’t crack anymore The lions they won’t fight and the tigers won’t roar La-la-la-la-la-la-la-la-la-la So let’s all drink to the death of a clown...

They seek him here, they seek him there, His clothes are loud, but never square. It will make or break him so he's got to buy the best, 'Cause he's a dedicated follower of fashion. And when he does his little rounds, 'Round the boutiques of London Town,...

Got a letter through the post that says I don't exist. Apparently the new computer thinks I won't be missed. We need more facts, perhaps you would find out and forward them. There's no proof or trace or date or place or where or when. Central Information's...

I spy with my little eye Anything here that I can buy. I see a little thatched cottage Looking so neat With compulsory purchase we can buy it up cheap. Then we'll pull up the floor boards, Knock down the walls, Rock the foundations, Until the house fal...

Down the way from the Tottenham Court Road Just round the corner from old Soho There's a place where the publishers go If you don't know which way to go Just open your ears and follow your nose 'Cos the street is shakin' from the tapping of toes You can...

Met a girl called Lola and I took her back to my place Feelin' guilty, feelin' scared, hidden cameras everywhere Stop! Hold on. Stay in control Girl, I want you here with me But I'm really not as cool as I'd like to be 'Cause there's a red, under my bed And t...

Went for a walk down the Old King's Road, To see if anybody was there. But there was nobody home at 3 Bywater Street, And they had sold Cadogan Square. And I remember myself in my tie dye sweater, And my hipster corduroy flares. As I knocked on doors, And walk...

Did you see his name in the local paper? Stole a tin of beans From a cut-priced grocery store The judge said he must pay So he put him on probation And the paper gave his name Did you see his name in the criminal section? And the center page Gave his name and...

A displaced person in a displaced land I lost my home, lost everything you can Tried so hard, doing the best I can But where I am is where I stand Your eyes are filled with greed and hate But wherever you wander is a holy place Where my heart loves is a...

Standing in the middle of nowhere Wondering how to begin Lost between tomorrow and yesterday Between now and then And now we're back where we started Here we go round again Day after day I get up and I say I better do it again (do it again) Where are all the...

Walter, remember when the world was young And all the girls knew Walter's name? Walter, isn't it a shame the way our little world has changed? Do you remember, Walter, playing cricket in the thunder and the rain? Do you remember, Walter, smoking cigarettes...

Oh, didn't you like to do, An uneasy thing to do? Are you troubled by the bad things in your life? If you're worrying 'bout a verse, And you can't get it off your chest, Just lie down and try to ease your mind. If your mother comes 'round the bend, Come...

You can blame it on the government, The unions, They use you all you life, You can take system and make believe it will be alright, They've taken the spirit of your life, And given you a machine. No wonder you feel so hard done by Chorus They're doin...

Walking 'round this metropolis With its buildings that reach to the clouds There must be millions of people out there Walking 'round with their heads bowed This city kills me, but it thrills me Now something's gone and held up the crowd They're pointing at a m...

Don't ever change Don't ever change from the way that you are now If you ever change I would be sad 'cause I wanted you just as you are Don't you ever change now Always be the same now No, don't ever change from the way that you were Last night Don't...

Don't ever let me go, don't ever let me go Don't ever let me go, don't ever let me go You've been runnin' round with other guys (other guys) I keep hearing these stories, I wish they were lies (wish they were lies) Yeah, but don't ever let me go, because I w...

You look out of your window, Into the night. Could be rain, could be snow, But it cant feel as cold as youre feeling inside. And all of you friends are either married, vanished, Or just left alone. But thats no reason to just stop living. Thats no excuse to j...

Don't you fret, now, I'll be there I'll be there to hold your hand. I'll be there to see the sunrise, As it lightens up the sky. Don't you fret, now, I'll be there, I'll be there to put you right. I'll be there to hold you tightly, When the Sun goes do...

Down all the days Though the past is just a blink away, The future waits for me and you, Down all the days till 1992 Here is hope for all the people And generations yet to come, An the future's bright tomorrow, Illuminated by the morning sun. Here's for all t...

When I look so far away Please don't wake me from my dreams I'm just wondering who I could be If I lived inside my dreams I could be a king or a football star Drive around in a big sports car An astronaut or a millionaire I could do anything or...
