Charlatans--The Charlatans

FEELING HOLY 

Down, deep I know where I wanna be
Long promised road
And an island made out of me
One drop can make you feel how I feel
Love, love can make a mighty meal on the hill.
One drop gets you feeling holy
Hello below me
One drop gets you up, up and away...

Bad skins in bombers
Blue white and green
Chaps take a look at my hands
Ain't no fruit of what it can mean
One sweet buzz can make you feel how I feel
One sweet love can make a mountain slide up the hill

One drop gets you feeling holy
Hello below me
One drop gets you up, up and away.
Shake it down

One drop gets you feeling holy
Hello below me
One drop gets you up,
Up and away.

I'm feeling holy, hello below me, fucking feeling holy
I'm feeling holy, hello below me


JUST LOOKIN'

I'm just lookin' to see what I'm missing
You startin' the riot
Ten green bottles are thrown from the hillside
You're too young to stay quiet

Find a seat on your own train
I wanna share it only with you
Gotta sail on for my sweet dreamer
I'll never take it away from you.

Yeah we stand with our hands in the air
And we're feelin' so good cos we care
And we're freakin' about in the bush
Feelin' good feelin' high it's a rush
I'm in because I don't wanna work
In no place in the whole universe.

I'm just lookin' to see what I'm missing
You started the riot
Pretty soon I'll be blowin' to match you
It's too dull and too quiet.

I bet you talk about freedom
And then throw it to the sea
You better smile on for my sweet dreamer
You'll never take it away from me.

Cos we stand with our hands in the air
And we're feelin' so good cos we care
And we're freakin' about in the bush
Feelin' good feelin' high it's a rush
I'm in because I don't wanna work
In no place in the whole universe.

I'm just lookin'
I'm just lookin'

I bet you talk about freedom
And then throw it to the sea
You better smile on for my sweet dreamer
You'll never take it away from me.

I'm just lookin'
I'm just lookin'
I'm just lookin'
I'm just lookin'


CRASHIN' IN

All ready to get on my way
Move on up into the city today
I can see you've got a solar report
Keeps you in and keeps you boring
I can hear you snoring.

One of these days you'll feel the sound of speed
I'll come crashin' in your flat and
Say hey it's too late.

All your friends are drivin' around
Coming up to feel the weekend goin' up in smoke
Kiss behind the coolest of walls
Standing there to kick your heart out
Oh no you've got a blowout.

One of these days you'll feel the sound of speed
I'll come crashin' in your flat and
Say hey come on now.

I can go for miles and miles and miles and miles and miles
Oh yeah
Oh yeah

All dressed up to get on my way
Move on up into the city today
I can see you've got a solar report
You're still in and you're still boring
I can hear you snoring.

One of these days you'll see the sound of speed
I'll come crashin' in your flat and
Say hey it's too late.

I can go for miles and miles and miles and miles and miles.
Oh yeah
Oh yeah
Oh yeah

See me I can feel it comin' around.

Yeah
Yeah


BULLET COMES

Sometimes you cry
Cry sometimes
What you gonna do when the bullet comes round
What you gonna do when the seas are down
Lickin' like a lion
With a big cat heart
Checkin' in the dark being quick bein' smart

Live it like you love it
Do it let's go
Blowin' with the giant
Sayin' fe fi fo

Chorus
Stuck on the way you walk
Hooked on the way you talk

Tell me it's the way you feel
And not the place you hold your dreams baby
It's not where you are.

Tell me it's the way you feel
And not the place you hold your dreams baby
It's not where you are.

One day we'll fly
Fly from the wack'o'ma mind
Hope you're here to stay
To see the bullets come round
People 'working out' with their sun hats on.

Kiss me like a tiger
With a big cat heart
I'll read it if you buy it
Bein' quick bein' smart

Lookin' at the devil
Funky let's go
Blowin' with the giant
Fe fi fo

Chorus

Live it like you love it
Live it like you love it
Live it like you love it 


HERE COMES A SOUL SAVER

Here comes a soul saver
On your record player
Floatin' about in the dust
You sing the joys baby
I'll be down when you're free from the rust
Take your pick who's your savior
Come in five different flavors.

Tell me I'm sweeter than your broken leader
I'll take the smooth with the rough
I see you lying there
Put him down no reply in the sand, in the mud.

Don't kick it
I wanna keep it
Don't feel it
I wanna drive
In the sunshine of my life
In the sunshine of your life
Can you feel it when it's right?
Can you feel it in your soul
Can you feel what's goin' on?
Yeah! Right

Don't kick it
I wanna freeze it
Don't feel it
I wanna drive
It's the sunshine of my life
It's the sunshine of my life
Can you feel it when it's right?

Look it comes
And when it flows like your country song
What's going on
Going on
Going on


JUST WHEN YOU'RE THINKIN'  THINGS OVER

Just when you're thinkin' things over
I know you need a set of vows
And all your friends seem disappointed
To see the sun going down
And when the sweetness you're saving
Is all the sweetness you doubt.

I'm coming home
You look good when your heart is on fire
It's a matter of taste yeah! 
You do it fine
You don't follow the line
Find the sun.

Ooh!
Ooh!
Ooh!
Ooh!
Ooh!
Ooh!

I found you soaking in liquid
I found you there in your robe
Ain't no hands big enough to save us
I got the vibe
I'm coming home.
I see you close up your windows
I see you burn down your throne.

Yeah! I'm coming home
You look good when your heart is on fire
It's a matter of taste yeah!
You do it right
You don't follow the line
Find the sun.

Ooh!
Ooh!
Ooh!
Ooh!
Ooh!
Ooh!
I'm coming home.

Ride out
Where do you come from?
Kick up
Go find your love
I ain't knockin' all you've done.

Just when you're thinkin' things over
Oh yeah you found your set of vows
And all your friends seem disappointed
Cos they're not your friends now.
And all the books that you've been through
Seem too sad to you now.

I'm coming home
You look good when your heart is on fire
It's a matter of taste yeah!
You do it fine
You don't follow the line
Find the sun
Where you comin' from baby?

Yeah! I'm coming home
I wanna build my Rome and get high
But I can't find my matches
And when you rap me
You drive me to say this
Hey love I can't sing anymore.
I'm coming home.

Coming home
Coming home.


TELL EVERYONE

Tell everyone
Don't put it on
It makes no difference to me
Won't mess around
Been here so long
It makes no difference when you smile
Ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh

Cos I don't run from love
From anyone.
And I can land on money or the moon.

On hillside straights
Can't walk it's late
I know there's something's left alive
Ah, ah, ah, ah

And I don't take no shit from anyone
And I can land on money or the moon
You know the sun will come soon
And we can sail away...

Tell everyone
Don't put it on
It makes no difference to me
Ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh

Cos I don't run from love
From anyone.
And I can land on money or the moon.
You won't get it too soon
And you can see
You're there for me...


TOOTHACHE

I bet'cha them bullets can surely blow
Me back to hell all down we go
Lick your belly and I make you smile
I hear ya, I'm achin'
I'm milking the miles
Honey I don't mind
You're trickin' me right?

I'm a tramp and I love you
Hold me down
Hold me down

Mesmerisin' me
All the world can see
I can sing
Oh! Yeah I'm drivin' in the backseat of your love.

Shooting stars don't make you see
You're living on love
I can feel it's real
Lick your belly and I make a smile
I hear ya, I'm achin'
I'm milkin' the miles
No milk don't melt in the back of my mouth

I'm a tramp and I love you
Hold me down

No milk in the back of my mouth
No milk in the back of my mouth
No milk in the back of my mouth

Mesmerisin' me
All the world can see
I can sing
Oh yeah, don't need no bore-a-tellin' me
You can have it all
You can have it all
You can have it all
I'm drivin' in the back seat of your love.


NO FICTION

There's one thing on my mind
I think I'll take a little walk in the wild
The feelings come and roll
Put it in your pocket and I'll save it
For another day
Hey hey hey
Hey hey hey

And life becomes my shield
And she becomes my life
Not afraid of too much livin'
I'm waitin' for the day
I wanna see it
Wanna live it with a kiss

One hundred planes with bombs
Couldn't turn your headlights on
No fiction roping you down
I know and feel what's going on

There's a sad man on my mind
I think I'll take a little walk outside
But the feelings never go
You can tell me
You can tell me
I wanna live it
I wanna live it how I see.


SEE IT THROUGH

Carry me away from the country
Ride a number 24 to the west
Feel the earth begin to move on the music
Singin' anthems I'll be down anywheres

I wanna free all the monkeys
Don't wanna live in the zoo
It's gettin' better
One day it's gonna happen
And we'll see it through...

Back upon the hillside our love smiles
And I see you won a cheap holiday
And I feel I find it hard to deny it
I'll be there
I'll be there

I wanna free all the monkeys
Don't wanna live in the zoo
It's getting better
One day it's gonna happen
And we'll see it through
Get us through...

Right now baby
Tonight's gonna change me and you.

I wanna be with this country
I can't I've seen all there is
It's getting better
One day it's gonna happen
And we'll see it through
Get us through...

Right now baby
The world won't ever change me and you.


THANK YOU

Thank you
I just wanted to say
Thank you
Ooh ooh ooh ooh

(Thank you)
I just wanted to say
Thank you
Ooh ooh ooh ooh

Soul cats
And the soul cats

It's alright
