READY TO GO

You're weird, in tears, too near and too far away,
He said, saw red, went home stayed in bed all day,
Your t-shirt, dish dirt,
Always love the one you hurt

It's a crack, I'm back yeah standing
On the rooftops shouting out,
Baby I'm ready to go
I'm back and ready to go
From the rooftops shout it out
It's a crack, I'm back yeah standing
On the rooftops having it
Baby I'm ready to go                          
I'm back and ready to go                      
From the rooftops shout it out, shout it out          
                                                    
You sleep, too deep, one week is another world       
Big mouth, big mouth, drop out, drop out             
You get what you deserve                             
You're stange, insane, one thing you can never change
                                                    
It's a crack, I'm back yeah standing                
On the rooftops shouting out,
Baby I'm ready to go
I'm back and ready to go
From the rooftops shout it out
It's a crack, I'm back yeah standing
On the rooftops having it
Baby I'm ready to go
I'm back and ready to go
From the rooftops shout it out, shout it out

Abused, confused, always love the one that
hurt ya hurt ya hurt ya

It's a crack, baby I'm ready to go
Baby I'm ready to go...


BLOKE

You've got red shoes, and the sports car
You think you're really cool, I gotta say
You just don't know what games to play
You like football, and play on saturdays
When the weekends gone, you go to work
In a nasty office as a filing clerk

So don't you tell me, I'm not listening     
I've already heard it                       
You better watch you're back                
I'm gonna take you on, I'm gonna take you on
I'm gonna take you on, I'm gonna take you on
I'm gonna take you on, I'm gonna take you on
                                            
Mobile, but bo conversation                 
You've got credit cards, megadrive          
Fax me lunch, Mr. 9 to 5                    
You've got timeshare, for your holidays
It's the same routine, the life you lead
The friends you keep, you're lack of taste

So don't you tell me, I'm not listening
I've already heard it
You better watch you're back
I'm gonna take you on, I'm gonna take you on
I'm gonna take you on, I'm gonna take you on
I'm gonna take you on, I'm gonna take you on


BITCH

I want everything, I want everything
I want a limousine, a diamond ring
I want everything
I wanna taste the good life
I wanna sip from the golden cup
I wanna drink champagne in the early morning hours of
the city nights
And if I stay out late
Don't wait up for me
One dove two hearts
A free ride to be who I wanna be
One life one vision                                     
Street life just for the hell of it                     
One dove two hearts                                     
A free ride to be who I wanna be                        
One life one vision, one vision                         
I want the best of both worlds                          
I want total attraction                                 
I want a piece of the cake                              
A piece of the action                                   
I'm gonna take it to the limit                          
And get more than I bargained for
There's no regrets make no mistake
I gonna get what I want
Whatever it takes
And if I push too far don't wait up for me
One dove two hearts
A free ride to be who I wanna be
One life one vision
Street life just for the hell of it
One dove two hearts
A free ride to be who I wanna be
One life one vision, one vision
I wanna sip from the golden cup
I wanna drink champagne
I want everything



GET OFF

One more day on the roller coaster
If I scream they spin me faster
Everything gone backwards
And I, upside down
Stop me dead oh I think I'm falling
One more line and it will be morning
Hit the floor
So stop the traffic                                
Stop the clock, stop the lot                       
I wanna get off, I wanna get off with you          
One more job in the supermarket                    
One more kick to get me started                    
Everyone get on board                              
This ship is sinking                               
Hanging out I don't want to be there               
Took a train to another city                       
Chinese food in a tower frenzy                     
Why I'm here is mystery to me
So stop the traffic
Stop the clock, stop the lot
I wanna get off, I wanna get off with you
And like a speeding car you want more! more! more!
And like a rattlesnake I hate
I wanna get off, I wanna get off with you
And like a speeding car you want more! more! more!
And like a rattlesnake I hate
I wanna get off, I wanna get off with you
I wanna get off...

DROP DEAD GORGEOUS

Backwords words, he got em
Shut up, I'm talking

But when I look at you you're forgiven
You drive, too fast and
I smoke, too much and
My heart, is broken
But when I look at you you're forgiven
You're forgiven

Oh he does it every time
It's just his permanent disguise
Yeah yeah but he's drop dead gorgeous
Don't go changing every time
Not for me to comprimise
You're still a friend of mine
Yeah yeah and you're drop dead gorgeous 
Yeah - end of, stop sulking             
Get out, you're walkin                  
Too bad, I've spoken                    
But when I look at you you're forgiven  
Your lies, don't want em                
Drop dead, not joking

But when I look at you you're forgiven  
You're forgiven                         
I know my ex-boyfriend lies

OUT OF THE DARKNESS

Get up, Alarm clock, Lip gloss, what a shock
Get dressed, front door, more stress what for?
Trapped in your world
You know you're trappped in your world
Lunch hour, fast food, telephone, more abuse
V.U. headache, cigarettes, coffee break
Trapped in your world                                   
You know you're trappped in your world                  
(Come out of the darkness)                              
Come out of the darkness, over the tower blocks         
Into the light                                          
Go into the rush hour, out of the factory               
Leave it behind                                         
Turn on your TV., back to suburbia, every night         
Come out of the darkness, over the offices, into the light                  
                                
(Come out of the darkness)
Leave work, happy hour, too drunk by far
bus full, waterloo, fall asleep on the tube
Trapped in your world
You know you're trappped in your world
Vodka, lemonade, ashtrays, what a shame
Poor cow, sits alone, pubs close, go home
Trapped in your world
You know you're trappped in your world
(Come out of the darkness)


WRAP

Wrap your body around me so we are one
Wrap your arms and your legs and your hands and your
tounge
Wrap your words and your life
Your feelings and pain
Wrap your cheatin's and your memories
Wrap your touch and your shame
Wrap your body around me
In you I will hide
Wrap your cold and your warm                            
Wrap your truth and your lies                           
Wrap your past and your plans                           
Wrap your secrets and hair                              
What you keep to yourself                               
And baby what you share                                 
Wrap my body in you                                     
Wrap your body around me so it feels like home          
And where your heart is and your pictures               
And your keys and clothes                               
Wrap your language and your places
Your sex and your taste
What you love and you hate
Wrap your body around me
Till it hurts I said
I wanna get lost in your news
And your bed
Tie me with your juices
Your tears and your sweat
Take me with your muscles
Your teeth and your scent
Wrap my body in you...


DON'T YOU EVER

Turn your head off, turn the nusic up
Dont't let it push you down
Out of hand get off
Don't ever think of him
Don't ever let him in
He'll go round and round and round
And make your head spin
He'll go round and round and round
And make your head spin
You're a big boy with a big mouth
Talkin big time just spit it out
Take the back seat till you feel alright
You get your own way, all day, every time
Love me hate me hurt me and break me                  
Want me take me but don't ever leave me               
Don't you ever leave me don't you ever don't you ever
Push the boat out keep your feelings in               
He tore your world apart, never start giving him      
Don't promise anything                                
He'll see the state you've been                       
Hand on your heart, never lasts, didn't it            
You got a small mind in a small town                  
Let your head spin give me the run around             
I wish I didn't care, I wish I wasn't there
You get your own way, all day, everywhere
Want me take me but don't ever leave me
But don't ever leave me
I wish I didn't care
I wish I wasn't there
You get your own way
All day everywhere
Love me hate me hurt me and break me
Want me take me but don't ever leave me
Hate me hurt me and break me
Want me take me but don't ever leave me
Hate me hurt me and break me
Want me take me but don't ever leave me
(Don't you ever leave me)
Hate me hurt me and break me
Want me take me but don't ever leave me


HOLLY

Marilyn baby, wants to be a pop star
She's seventeen, and very unhappy
Frankie baby, used to be a big fish
He's ethnic boy and aint got no money
And Holly wouldn't be so precious
If the beach bum beauties
Weren't so delicious in Hollywood
Who cares anyway?                              
Who really cares anyway?                       
Frankie baby, sees punks on the sidewalk       
Freaks on the freeway                          
Someone blows a kid away                       
Have a nice day                                
And sweet sweet Marilyn                        
A streetwise heroine                           
A tricks, a fix, a fix, a tricks, a fix, a fix 
She'll do anything                             
And Holly woudn't be so tragic
When everybody trips the light fantastic
In Hollywood
Who cares anyway? Who really cares anyway?
In the Hollywood bowl of serial killers
Who cares anyway?
Holly doesn't give a damn...
Holly doesn't give a damn...
Who cares anyway? Who really cares anyway?
In the Hollywood bowl of serial killers
