(Sullivan)
There's absolutely nothing on my mind
The television flickers in my eyes
Waiting, always waiting
Down in the bus station doing time
We watch the world go passing by
Waiting, always waiting
It's all on tomorrow
Don't worry today
Another year over
But it's all okay
They told us of the second coming so we look to
the sky
It's not a saviour we want, just someone to crucify
Waiting, always waiting
But nothing happens, nothing ever happens

(Howard Blake; from the movie The Snowman)
We're walking in the air
We're floating in the moonlit sky
The people far below are sleeping as we fly
I'm holding very tight
I'm riding in the midnight blue
I'm finding I can fly so high above with you
Far across the world
The villages go by like trees
The rivers and the hills
The forests and the streams
Children gaze open mouth
Taken by surprise
Nobody down below believes their eyes
We're surfing in the air
We're swimming in the frozen sky
We're drifting over icy
Mountains floating by
Suddenly swooping low on an ocean deep
Arousing of a mighty monster from its sleep
We're walking in the air
We're floating in the midnight sky
And everyone who sees us greets us as we fly

Yo, I'll tell you what I want what
I really really want,
So tell me what you want what you really really want
I'll tell you what I want what I really really want,
So tell me what you want what you really really want
I wanna I wanna I wanna I wanna I wanna really really really wanna
zigazig ha
If you want my future, forget my
past,
If you wanna get with me, better make it fast
Now don't go wasting my precious time
Get your act together we could be just fine
I'll tell you what I want what I really really want,
So tell me what you want what you really really want
I wanna I wanna I wanna I wanna I wanna really really really wanna
zigazig ha
If you wannabe my lover, you gotta
get with my friends
Make it last forever, friendship never ends
If you wannabe my lover, you have got to give,
Taking is too easy but that's the way it is
A what'd think about that? Now you know how I feel.
Say you can handle my love, are you for real?
I won't be hasty, I'll give you a try
If you really bug me then I'll say goodbye
I'll tell you what I want what I really really want,
So tell me what you want what you really really want,
I wanna I wanna I wanna I wanna I wanna really really really wanna
zigazig ha
If you wannabe my lover, you gotta
get with my friends,
Make it last forever, friendship never ends
If you wannabe my lover, you have got to give,
Taking is to easy but that's the way it is
So here's the story from A to Z,
You wanna get with me, you gotta listen carefully
You got Em in the place who likes it in your face
You got G like Mel C who likes it on an Easy V,
Doesn't come for free, she's a real lady
And as for me, ha you'll see
Slam your body down and wind it all around
Slam your body down and wind it all around
If you wannabe my lover, you gotta
get with my friends
Make it last forever, friendship never ends
If you wannabe my lover, you gotta,you gotta, you gotta, you gotta
Slam, Slam, Slam,Slam,
Slam your body down and wind it all around
Slam your body down and wind it all around
Slam your body down and wind it all around
Slam your body down and zigazig ha
If you wannabe my lover

(Heaton/Sullivan)
I'm wondering, I'm asking, I'm feeling, I'm seeing
I'm wondering, I'm asking, I'm reaching, I'm finding, I'm wanting
I watched you get the things that you could buy
Raise your arms and try to fly
Face turned up towards the sun
Nothing that you dare deny
Because it's hunger that feeds
you, hunger that bleeds you
Falling forward into nothing catching at the air
And everything still out of reach
With the chill of sweat drying on your back
I'm finding, I'm feeling, stretching, falling . . .
There's nothing that you can resist
But you must deny yourself first to get a fix
Another cure that don't exist - that's all there is
Because it's hunger that feeds you, hunger that bleeds you
Falling forward into nothing catching at the air
I'm wondering, I'm asking, I'm looking, I'm begging . . .
You and I, we walk these unforgiving streets
We get so desperate sometimes we can barely speak
And through the night the sirens scream
But just like us, they don't fix on anything
And we take our different poisons, the ones half-chosen
And first comes the blinding flashing light
Then the wave of the blast and then the waiting emptiness
Because it's hunger that feeds us, hunger that bleeds us
There is no end to this
There is no end to this

Everyone's crucified,
nobody wins
In the wars of purification
Now history she dances in circles around us
Learn your lesson well
And grow up fast, and grow up strong
The dark days they are awaiting
'Cos everyone's crucified, nobody wins
In the wars of purification
Everyone's crucified, nobody wins
In the battles of purification

(Sullivan/Dean)
You win the arguments you have
You want so badly to be right
But they just drift away
You're left there with nothing in your hands
While we tumble from the mountains where we were born
Born of sky and mountains we tumble from the rocks
Shifting coloured patterns in the brightness of the day
Ch:
We're only made of water
The full moon gets us high
We can change our shape into anything
As often as we like
All our lives are liquid, there's nothing that is
stone
The angles wash to curves and in the end we soak
into the hollows of the earth
And home we carry with us just a sense of where
we've been as we flow into one another - I've found you
and lost you and found you so many many times
Ch
And mischief and meaning and tricks of the mind
The spray and the mist and the falling of time

We Gotta Get Outta This Place/In a Rut
(The Animals/The Ruts)
In this dirty old part of the city
Where the sun refused to shine
People say I'm crazy for even tryin'
Now my girl you're so young and
pretty
And one thing I know is true
You'll be old before your time is due
Watch my daddy in bed a-dyin'
Watched his hair been turnin' grey
He's been workin' and slavin' his life away
(Yeah!) He's been workin' so hard
(Yeah!) I've been workin' too, baby
(Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah!)
Ch:
We gotta get out of this place
If it's the last thing we ever do
We gotta get out of this place
Girl, there's a better life for me and you
Now my girl you're so young and
pretty
And one thing I know is true
You'll be dead before your time is due
Watch my daddy in bed a-dyin'
Watched his hair been turnin' grey
He's been workin' and slavin' his life away
(Yeah!) He's been workin' so hard
(Yeah!) I've been workin' too, baby
(Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah!) /
Ch:
If you're in a rut, you gotta get out of it
Out of it, out of it, out of it, out of it
If you're in a rut, you gotta
get out of it
Out of it, out of it, out of it, out of it
I can't concentrate
I'm in a state
I don't feel straight
I can't love or hate
I can't feel nothing
Can't feel no sting
Only just learning
I ain't no king
Ch
Ain't no use
You ain't that sloose
Don't tie that noose
It's just abuse
Don't take that ride
It's suicide
You cut your wrist
You tried and missed
Ch
Thanks to Dave for
helping me with the lyrics of In a Rut

Under cover of the darkness the moon was laughing at
the sun -
You can't outshine me here.
I was out the door before I had a chance to think - my god what have I
done? -
When anger's stronger than fear . . .
Ch:
And there's a tangle of roots around our feet,
We're tied to each other and to the ground
And everything I learned turned out to be wrong
And the strong are so weak and the weak are so strong.
We sat out on the balcony raking through the ashes
of our lives
With summer coming to an end
And inside the children sleeping, their hearts already torn by the world
And they are growing up so fast, heaven knows they are growing up so
fast . . .
Ch
So under cover of the darkness, the moon still
laughing at the sun -
You can't outshine me here.
Remember that day forever - two million into ONE
Praying that love is stronger than fear, love can be stronger than fear

(Warren Zevon)
I saw a werewolf with a Chinese
menu in his hand
Walking through the streets of Soho in the rain
He was looking for a place called Lee Ho Fook's
Going to get himself a big dish of beef
chow mein
Werewolves of London
If you hear him howling around
your kitchen door
Better not let him in
Little old lady got mutilated late last night
Werewolves of London again
Werewolves of London
He's the hairy-handed gent who ran
amuck in Kent
Lately he's been overheard in Mayfair
Better stay away from him
He'll rip your lungs out, Jim
I'd like to meet his tailor
Werewolves of London
Well, I saw Lon
Chaney walking with the Queen
Doing the Werewolves of London
I saw Lon Chaney, Jr. walking with the Queen
Doing the Werewolves of London
I saw a werewolf drinking a
pina colada at Trader Vic's
His hair was perfect
Werewolves of London
Draw blood

(Sullivan/Heaton)
Gather round and listen
And I'll tell you how's it's done
How they manage to make idiots
Out of everyone
Take a human population
With their hunger and their pain
And the weaknesses that cripple them
Again and again
Invent a splendid party
Where the dreams can be won
And with bright flashing lights
The heartaches are gone
With sex and with money
And with everything for free
The show tantalising glimpses
Every night on TV.
Watch the dirty hands
That laboured hard for you
Stretching out like children
For a crumb that they can chew
Give a car and video
A little bit to spare
And go on promising
That more could all be theirs
Ch:
All lies all lies
All schemes all schemes
Every winner means a looser
In the western dream
The producer swears silently
It cannot be heard
And the camera crew are muttering
Those four letter words
Another take is needed
So the show can go on
With a patronising smile
And a popular song
They tell you when to laugh
They tell you when to cheer
So the audience at home
Will get the right idea
They watch like children
Left out of a playground gang
Conforming their lives
The way they hope will get them in
Ch
It seems to me sometimes
There's only two ways to choose
In this whirlpool made
Of a thousands years
Either live in these ghettoes
And know your place
Or you trample over everyone
In the human race
I wish we could find
Another way to go
Without the Ghost of Cain
In everything we do
The bitterness in failure
And the dirt in success
This is the choice
This is our choice
Ch

(Louis Armstrong)
I see trees of green, red roses too
I see them bloom for me and you
And I think to myself what a wonderful world.
I see skies of blue and clouds of
white
The bright blessed day, the dark sacred night
And I think to myself what a wonderful world.
The colors of the rainbow so
pretty in the sky
Are also on the faces of people going by
I see friends shaking hands saying how do you do
They're really saying I love you.
I hear babies cry, I watch them
grow
They'll learn much more than I'll never know
And I think to myself what a wonderful world
Yes I think to myself what a wonderful world.

I felt a shiver in the heathaze
And the waiting time is over
Strange tongues on the airwaves
As the voices call from distant lands
I saw which was the winning side
But still I joined the other
And I'm in love with every strange unfolding day
As the storm begins to break cover
So let the whirlwind blow
- through the ice, the melting snows
- across the freezing skies and the tiny lights below
And so we shutter up the doorways
As the ripples move towards us
For a moment stop breathing
She wakes and stirs beneath our
feet
The Order try to stand their ground
While every battlefront is shifting
They still believe that they can hold the reins
But then they've got no sense of history
So let the whirlwind blow
- through the ice, the melting snows
- across the freezing skies and the tiny lights below
- the waters seething, bubbling out of control
- come on take my hand and we'll dive
A television blares in an empty room
The poisoned waters glisten
Goliath staggers round in a punchdrunk daze
Doesn't understand what hit him
I saw which was the winning side
But still I joined the other
And I'm in love with every strange unfolding day
As the storm begins to break cover
Let the whirlwind blow
- through the ice, the melting snows
- across the freezing skies and the tiny lights below
- the waters seething
- we watch the oceans rise and the governments start to fall
- across the freezing skies until the lights go out below

(Traditional)
As I was going over the far famed Kerry
Mountains
I spied Captain Farrel and his money he was counting
I first produced my pistol and then I produced my rapier
Saying stand and deliver for you are a bold deceiver
Ch:
Musha
ring durram do durram dah
Whack for di daddio
Whack for di daddio
There's whiskey in the jar
I counted out his money and it
made a pretty penny
I put it in my pocket and I took it home to Jennie
She swore and she sighed that she never would deceive me
But the Devil take the woman for they never can be easy
Ch
I went onto my chamber for to take
a little slumber
I dreamt of golden jewels and for sure it was no wonder
But Jennie drew my charges and she filled them up with water
Then sent for Captain Farrel to be ready for the slaughter
Ch
It was early in the morning as I
rose to travel
Up comes a band of footmen and likewise Captain Farrel
I first produced my pistol for she'd stolen away my rapier
But I couldn't shoot the water so a prisoner I was taken
Ch
There's some take delight in the
carriages a-rolling
Others take delight in the hurley and the bowling
But I take delight in the juice of the barley
And courting pretty fair maids in the morning bright and early
Ch
And if anyone can aid me 'tis my
brother in the army
If I can fight a station in Cork or in Killarney
And if he'll go with me we'll be roaming in Kilkenny
And I'm sure he'll treat me better than my only sporting Jennie

(Sullivan/Heaton/Harris)
Well we know what makes the flowers grow
But we don't know why
And we all have the knowledge of DNA
But we still die
We perch so thin and fragile here
Upon the land
And the earth that moves beneath us
We don't understand
So we rush towards the judgment day
When She reclaims
A toast to the Luddite martyrs
then
Who died in vain
Down at the lab they're working still
Finishing off
How do we tell the people in the white coats
Enough is enough is enough is enough?
Ch:
Hey, hey I listen to you pray
As if some help will come
Hey, hey She will dance on our
graves
When we are dead and gone
When we are dead and gone
You and I we made no suicide pact
We didn't want to die
But we watch the wall, little darling
While the chemical trucks go by
This desperate imitation now
Of innocence
Those last few days at Jonestown
Ain't got nothing on this
Ch
Now beneath the fitted carpets
Beyond the padded cells
Within these crimes of passion
The naked truth She dwells
And this fury's just a part
And this thunder's just a part
Desire is just a part
The cracking ice, the splitting rock
Ch
Hey, hey to the suicide day
The blind man blunders on
Hey, hey She will dance on our graves
When we are dead and gone
As children learn about the world
We built that wall of sand
Along the beach we laboured
hard
With our bare hands
We worked until the sun went down
Beneath the waves
And the tide came rolling splashing in
Washed the wall away
How do we tell the people in the white coats
Enough is enough?

(Sullivan/Heaton)
It's another heroes' sunset
I'm riding on the Great North Road
Coiled and tensed in wonder
As the land turns burning gold
Ch:
Out in the sun, out in the wind
I'm nearly ready now to come back again
We are silent in this worship
Beneath the breathing of the summer trees
They sparkle in a dance of silver
As the light falls through the leaves
Ch
So from the wisdom of trances, the armies of
Jesus
To the voodoo possessions,
the different disguises
At dusk in the mountains all bowed in surrender
A thousand voices calling out a million names
We knelt as we lit the candles
Around the little shrine
Take me back to the white light
I want to go there again

(Sullivan/Heaton)
Raised in the fields in the back of beyond,
hauled into position as the prodigal
son, I was not Abel - I was
a
Cain;
the kind you find a use for every now and again.
I can't abide what things have become,
they think that you're simple, they think that I'm dumb . . .
You want to know one thing I advise?
Shoot when you see the whites of their eyes.
They'll come to you in the perfect disguise
clock you too late, with a squeal of surprise . . .
shoot when you see the whites - the whites of their eyes.
The wolfchild
smiles in the shallowest dreams
and you don't know just what it means . . .
Hey diddle diddle, what on earth
can it be?
You ain't going to get any answers from me . . .

Well I dreamed that I was running through a
wilderness of plenty
And I could hear the hunt behind me getting closer, getting closer
And I knew that the end was coming and I wished that it was over,
Bring me the snowfall, bring me the cold wind, bring me the winter.
And now the mercury keeps rising like the sap and
the blood and the oceans
And the asphalt acres melting in the fetid air of poison
And I could hear the soldiers coming and I wish that it was over
Bring me the snowfall, bring me the cold wind, bring me the winter.
I felt them tugging at my shoulder to come and join
in the celebrations
To mark the triumph of the Emperor - the all-conquering everlasting
summer
And the streets were awash with the blood of the innocents, sacrificed
to slaughter,
The crowds all drunk on power and madness as the noise grew ever louder
And I could hear the knives being sharpened and I wished that it was
over
Bring me the snowfall, bring me the cold wind . . .
Let all the sins of the past be buried in the frozen
ground,
Let the last of the vengeance fires die.
The black wings flying high above the skeleton trees -
Disappear into the white.
So let the weary land be rested and the killing
season over
Let the shadows stretch forever in the light of burnished silver
For I fear the age of consequence
and I wish that it was over
I fear the age of consequence and I wish that it was over
Bring me the snowfall, bring me the cold wind, bring me the winter

(Sullivan)
This is where we go to - to the blue of the ocean
On the 30 westbound to the
diamond water
Lost out in the white waves - salt purification
Bright eyes and breathless - this is how Love feels
Wash away the black stuff, wash away the road-dirt
In the thrill of the wipeout,
feel it pulling you under
This is where it saved your life in the days of the new beginning
All the sweet redemption lines that you wrote and told a thousand times
This is where we go to - to the blue of the ocean
On the three-o westbound to the diamond water
On the backlanes down to the sea we pulled to the side of the road
Danced together in the headlights beam to the songs on the radio
Cheek to cheek
We're up on the cliff tops as the dusk falls and the
wind drops down,
the last of the light fading in the sky out to the west;
and far out to sea, the water glows iridescent, perfect, like a promise
of warm water in the shallows, cold water out in the deep,
splashing on my face and rolling over, over, over . . .

(Sullivan/Nelson/Dean/White/Gill)
At the witching hour we'll be gone from here
When the snake-black roads are just about clear
Onto the hard-line dark horizon
Through the silver in the air
And if home is where the heart is
We'll just keep going until we disappear
The moon rides high on a gunmetal sky
Blood of a river a mile wide
I am wired, I am wired, I am so wired
The moon rides high on a gunmetal sky
Blood of an ocean, rising tide
Into the wild, into the wild, into the wild
Sometimes I feel her with me,
I feel her eyes upon my face
I feel her pulling me down in a tangle
Of sweat and hair and grace
For the only things worth wishing for
Are the ones that you cannot possess
The moon rides high on a gunmetal sky
Blood of a river a mile wide
I am wired, I am so wired, I am so wired
The moon rides high on a gunmetal sky
Blood of an ocean, rising tide
Into the wild, into the wild, into the wild
And in the shadows of the trees
You can see like an animal sees
You can gather up the stars like seeds
And throw them back into the
night

The wolf he howls, howls up at the moon,
out on the steps beneath my hotel room.
Was in the woods behind this little town
we went flying up through the silhouette trees,
then crashing down. Colours brighter than I've ever seen,
More wired than I've ever been - and the faces turn to stone . . .
On through the gates again - what a wonderful way to go . . .
What a wonderful way to go.
Tell me your story, tell me no lies;
we touch each other - but only with our eyes.
Some kind of game, to play with desire;
it's just beneath the skin that I'm alive. . .
Colours brighter than I've ever seen - more wired than I've ever been .
. .
And the faces turn to stone - on through the gates
again;
what a wonderful way to go - what a wonderful way to go . . .
Tonight the moon she lays a silver path across the blackened sea,
I'm swimming out against the tide, the waves are breaking over me;
and deep beneath the waters in the darkness I can hear her
as she calls for me to come. . .
The wolf he howls, howls up at the moon;
some day coming - some day soon . . .
Onto his shoulder, to carry me home;
flying up through the silhouette trees and we'll be gone . . .
Colours brighter than I've ever seen - more wired than I've ever been;
And all the faces turn to stone - on through the gates again . . .
What a wonderful way to go - what a wonderful way to go . . .

Well you say it's such a small small world
flying Club Class back from the
far-east
curled up safe and warm in the big chair
you were drifting through the skies of anywhere
Get the courtesy car to the Sheraton
there's live on-the-spot reports on the CNN between the ad-breaks
so you think you know what's going on - but you don't
because you weren't in Belfast,
no you weren't there
and no you weren't in Waco, no
you weren't there
and you weren't in Kosovo,
you weren't there
and you weren't in my head so you don't know how it felt
walking arm in arm with crowds
to the square
and the banners waving and the sun glinting
All this information swims round and round
like a shoal of fish in a tank going nowhere
Up and down between the glass walls
You're so safe in the knowledge they're impenetrable
and you look out at the world and see nothing at all
so go back to sleep and you'll be woken when the time comes
and you'll never know just what hit you or where it came from
because you weren't in Bradford,
no you weren't there
and you weren't on the hill, no you weren't there
and you weren't with us so you never saw
just what happened when the television crews came knocking on the door
how the people told them all to go to Hell,
smashed the cameras and sent them away
There were sirens going off and policemen coming in
and all that you love was being swept away
in the rush of a black tide all done in your name
and you'll never know just what happened there
or how it feels - just how it feels . . .

Young, gifted
and skint -
That's where it in't . .
Look how easily it happened
Look how easily I fell
Now I'm up to here in debt
There's a noose around my neck
There's a price upon my head
My past was all in borrowed time
Stupid stupid borrowed time
Now that the deed is done
I'm waiting for the axe to fall
Fantasies grow in my brain
Run away and start again
Disappear and change my name
Ch:
That man was, oh young, gifted and skint
That man says "You know that's where it is"
That man says "I'm talking innocent, quick!"
That man was - oh, have mercy!
Money makes the
world go round
Fear makes it turn much faster
Can't pay the rentman a single thing
Don't let the man from the Gas Board in
Maybe this is all a dream
Maybe I'll wake up again
Maybe this could all be clean
Ch:
That man was, oh young, gifted and skint
That man says "You know that's where it is"
That man says, "I'll get the check at the end of the week!"
That man was - oh, the shithead!

(Your Love Keeps Lifting Me) Higher and Higher
(Jackie Wilson)
Your love, liftin' me higher
Than I've ever been lifted before
So keep it up, quench my desire
And I'll be at your side forevermore
Ch:
You know your love (your love keeps liftin' me)
Keeps on liftin' (your love keeps liftin' me)
Higher (liftin' me, liftin' me), higher, and higher (higher)
I said your love (your love keeps liftin' me)
Keeps on (liftin' me, liftin' me)
Liftin' me (liftin' me) higher and higher (higher)
Now once I was downhearted
Disappointment was my closest friend
But then you came and he soon departed
And you know he never showed his face again
Ch:
That's why your love . . .
I'm so glad I finally found you
Yes, that one in a million girls
And I wish my lovin' arms around ya
Honey, I can stand up and face the world
Ch:
Let me tell ya your love . . .
