Love Comes Quickly

January 30, 2008

Love Comes Quickly

Sooner or later, this happens to everyone
To everyone

You can live your life lonely
Heavy as stone
Live your life learning
And working alone
Say this is all you want
But I don’t believe that it’s true
‘Cause when you least expect it
Waiting round the corner for you

Love comes quickly, whatever you do
You can’t stop falling (Ooh ooh)
Love comes quickly, whatever you do
You can’t stop falling (Ooh ooh)

You can live a life of luxury
If that’s what you want
Taste forbidden pleasures
Whatever you want

You can fly away to the end of the world
But where does it get you to?
‘Cause just when you least expect it
Just what you least expect

Love comes quickly, whatever you do
You can’t stop falling (Ooh ooh)
Love comes quickly, whatever you do
You can’t stop falling (Ooh ooh)

I know it sounds ridiculous, but speaking from experience
It may seem romantic, and that’s no defense
Love will always get to you

Sooner or later, sooner or later, this happens to everyone
To everyone

You can fly away to the end of the world
But where does it get you?

Love comes quickly, whatever you do
You can’t stop falling (Ooh ooh)
Love comes quickly, whatever you do
You can’t stop falling (Ooh ooh)
Love comes quickly, whatever you do
You can’t stop falling (Ooh ooh)
(Oooh)

Love comes quickly, whatever you do
You can’t stop falling (Ooh ooh)
Love comes quickly, whatever you do
You can’t stop falling (Ooh ooh)


Yesterday, When I Was Mad

January 30, 2008

Yesterday, When I Was Mad

Darling, you were wonderful, you really were quite good
I enjoyed it, though, of course, no one understood
A word of what was going on, they didn’t have a clue
They couldn’t understand your sense of humour like I do

You’re much too kind
I smiled with murder on my mind

Yesterday, when I was mad
And quite prepared to give up everything
Admitting, I don’t believe
In anyone’s sincerity, and that’s what’s really got to me

You have a certain quality, which really is unique
Expressionless, such irony, although your voice is weak
It doesn’t really matter ’cause the music is so loud
Of course it’s all on tape, but no one will find out

You hated me too
But not as much as I hated you

Yesterday, when I was mad
And quite prepared to give up everything
Admitting, I don’t believe
In anyone’s sincerity, and that’s what’s really got to me

Then, when I was lonely
I thought again
And changed my mind

Then we posed for pictures with the competition winners
And argued about the hotel rooms, and where to go for dinner
And someone said: “It’s fabulous you’re still around today,
You’ve both made such a little go a very long way”

Yesterday, when I was mad
And quite prepared to give up everything
Admitting, I don’t believe
In anyone’s sincerity, and that’s what’s really got to me

Yesterday, when I was mad
And quite prepared to give up everything
Admitting, I don’t believe
In anyone’s sincerity, and that’s what’s really got to me

Then, when I was lonely
I thought again
And changed my mind


Single

Single

I’m single bilingual
Single bilingual

They call this a community, I like to think of it as home
Arriving at the airport I am going it alone
Ordering a boarding pass
Travelling in business class
This is the name of the game
I’m single bilingual
Single bilingual

I come to the community from U.K. p.l.c.
Arriving at my hotel there are faxes greeting me
Staying in a junior suite
So there’s room to meet and greet
And after work explain how I feel
“Perdoneme, me llamo Neil”
I’m single bilingual
Single bilingual

(Hey)
(Hey)

In Brussels, Bonn and Barcelona
I’m in demand and quite at home there
“Adelante” through the door
“Un momento por favor”
This is what I get paid for
(“Muchas gracias senor”)

I’m a player in the continental game
With unlimited expenses to reclaim
Information’s easy
Tapping at my PC
That is the frame of the game
I’m single bilingual
Single bilingual
I’m single bilingual
Single bilingual

Saturday Night Forever

Saturday Night Forever

I don’t care what these commentators say
I swear I don’t care, for what difference do they make?
I go where I go and I get there fast
Don’t stop me, I know that it’s not gonna last

(Oooh)
Forever forever
(Saturday night (Saturday night) Saturday night)
Forever forever
(Oooh)
Forever forever
(Saturday night (Saturday night) Saturday night)

If you see someone gorgeous then you think
Am I in with a chance? Should I try? Buy a drink?
Or maybe it’s too much like hard work tonight
But if they look my way I might be alright

(Oooh)
Forever forever
(Saturday night (Saturday night) Saturday night)
Forever forever
(Oooh)
Forever forever
(Saturday night (Saturday night) Saturday night)
(Oooh)
Forever forever
(Saturday night (Saturday night) Saturday night)

You know where you went wrong

January 30, 2008

You know where you went wrong

Two men on the street
Drinking something cheap
No home, no family
It’s cold, nowhere to sleep
Passers-by never catch their eye
Anywhere, one man drinks, the other swears

You know where you went wrong
You know where you went wrong
(Aaaah) You know
You know where you went wrong
You know where you went wrong
(Aaaah) You know

The old man can’t understand
No one will shake his hand
I gave security, bombs and colour TV
It cost a few lives
Someone’s son always dies
No one shakes his hand
He don’t understand

You know where you went wrong
You know where you went wrong
(Aaaah) You know
You know where you went wrong
You know where you went wrong
(Aaaah) You know

This is the history of the world
Of every boy and every girl
Who don’t understand what’s going on anymore
The history of the world
Of every boy and every girl
Who don’t understand what’s going on anymore
(What’s going on?)

Two girls have a photograph
One looks, the other laughs
He could have been mine
Why did I change my mind?
Then hands on hips
The other girl says: Admit! Admit!

You know where you went wrong
You know where you went wrong
(Aaaah) You know
You know where you went wrong
You know where you went wrong
(Aaaah) You know

This is the history of the world (of the world)
Of every boy and every girl
Who don’t (who don’t) understand (understand)
what’s going on anymore (what’s going on?)
The history of the world (Ooooh)
Of every boy and every girl (Every boy and girl)
Who don’t (who don’t) understand (understand)
what’s going on anymore (what’s going on?)

You know where you went wrong
You know where you went wrong
(Aaaah) You know
You know where you went wrong
You know where you went wrong
(Aaaah) You know

(Aaaah)

You know where you went wrong
You know where you went wrong
(Aaaah) You know

(Aaaah)
(Aaaah)

You know where you went wrong
You know where you went wrong
(Aaaah) You know
You know where you went wrong
You know where you went wrong
(Aaaah) You know

You know where you went wrong
You know where you went wrong
You know
You know where you went wrong
You know where you went wrong
You know
You know where you went wrong

Vampires

Vampires

Brother, it don´t matter
Sister, don´t worry
Say what you like
I´ll do what you want me to do
You´re a vampire
I´m a vampire too

Sun un the kitchen
Boy, you´re still sleeping
When you get hungry
I´ll do what you want me to do
You´re a vampire
I´m a vampire too

Night in the city
New Orleans pretty
Do what you want
And then can I do it to you?

You´re a vampire
I´m a vampire too
You´re a vampire
I´m a vampire too

It´s a reflex
Just a reflex
Like fear or sex

Brother, it don´t matter
Sister, don´t worry
Say what you like
I´ll do what you want me to do
You´re a vampire
I´m a vampire too
You´re a vampire
I´m a vampire too

Brother, it don´t matter
Sister, don´t worry
Brother, it don´t matter
Sister, don´t worry


Miserablism

January 30, 2008

Miserablism

It seems to me there’s something serious beginning
A new approach found to the meaning of life
Deny that happiness is open as an option
And disappointment disappears over night

Say that love is an impossible dream
Face the facts, that’s what it’s always been
Relax, what you see is what you’ve seen
What you get, is a new philosophy

(That’s what you got, that’s what you get)
(That’s what you got, that’s what you get)

Miserablism, is is and isn’t isn’t
Miserablism, is is and isn’t isn’t

Meanwhile your life is still directed as a drama
With realism on the sparsest of sets
Every performance tends to reach the same conclusion
No happy endings but a message to depress
Saying life is an impossible scheme
That’s the point of this philosophy

Miserablism, is is and isn’t isn’t
Miserablism, is is and isn’t isn’t

But if is wasn’t, and isn’t were
You can’t be sure, but you might find ecstasy

(Oh no)

Just for the sake of it, make sure you’re always frowning
(get get get)
It shows the world that you’ve got substance and depth
You know, life is an impossible scheme
And love an imperceptible dream

(That’s what you got, that’s what you get)
(That’s what you got, that’s what you get)

Miserablism, is is and isn’t isn’t
Miserablism, is is and isn’t isn’t
Miserablism, is is and isn’t isn’t
Miserablism, is is and isn’t isn’t
Miserablism, is is and isn’t isn’t
Miserablism, is is and isn’t isn’t
Miserable


I get excited

January 30, 2008

I get excited

(Excited)
(Excited)

(Excited Excited Excited Excited)
(Excited Excited Excited Excited)

(I get excited)
(I get excited)

We’re both in the gutter, that’s no surprise
What does it matter, when I look in your eyes?
We’ve lost all our money, we’re thrown out of bars
We’re lying in the gutter, but we’re looking at the stars

I get excited, you get excited too (Excited) (I get excited)
I get excited, you get excited too (Excited) (I get excited)

I hear the sound of the subway, the sigh of the heat
The click of the visitors’ heels on the street
The rattle of the taxi, the scream of the cars
The clatter of the dustbin and the beat of my heart

I get excited, you get excited too (Excited) (I get excited)
I get excited, you get excited too (Excited) (I get excited)
I don’t know why, I don’t know why (I get excited)
I don’t know why, I don’t know why
(Excited Excited Excited Excited)
(Excited Excited Excited Excited)

You’re in my soul
My body moves to your control
Baby, I’ve been thinking about you
All night long, and the neighbours are talking

I don’t know why, I don’t know why (Excited) (I get excited)
I don’t know why, I don’t know why
(Excited) (I get excited)

We’re both in the gutter, that’s no surprise
What does it matter, when I look in your eyes?
We’ve lost all our money, we’re thrown out of bars
We’re lying in the gutter, but we’re looking at the stars

I get excited, you get excited too (Excited) (I get excited)
I get excited, you get excited too (Excited) (I get excited)
I don’t know why, I don’t know why (I get excited)
I don’t know why, I don’t know why
(Excited Excited Excited Excited)
(Excited Excited Excited Excited)
(Ooooooooh)

I get excited, you get excited too (Excited) (I get excited)
I get excited, you get excited too (Excited) (I get excited)
I don’t know why, I don’t know why (I get excited)
I don’t know why, I don’t know why (I get excited)
I get excited, you get excited too

January 30, 2008

wouldn’t normally do this kind of thing Ask me why, I say it’s most unusual How can I even try to explain Why today I feel like dancing Singing like lovers sing When I wouldn’t normally do this kind of thing? I wouldn’t normally do this kind of thing Ask me when, (ta ra ra ra) I say it started when I met you (ta ra ra ra ra ra) And ever since then I knew that the past couldn’t last For right now, I think I’m running A race that I know I’m gonna win And I wouldn’t normally do this kind of thing I wouldn’t normally do this kind of thing If people say I’m crazy, I tell ‘em that it’s true Let them watch with amazement Say it won’t last beyond breakfast It’s a phase he’s going through Denigrate or speculate on what I’m going through Because it isn’t the sort of thing I would normally do Ask me what, (ta ra ra ra) I say I think it’s good for you (ta ra ra ra ra) Believe it or not, I know where it’s all leading to I feel like taking all my clothes off Dancing to the Rite of Spring And I wouldn’t normally do this kind of thing I wouldn’t normally do this kind of thing I wouldn’t normally do this kind of – This kind of thing
