Girls & Boys (top)

street like a jungle
so call the police
following the herd
down to greece
on holiday
love in the 90`s
in paranoid
on sunny beaches
take your chances looking for

(chorus)
girls who are boys
who like boys to be girls
who do boys like they`re girls
who do girls like they`re boys
always should be someone you really love

avoiding all work
because there`s none available
count their thoughts 1 2 3 4 5 fingers
nothing is wanted
only reproduced
get nasty blisters
du bits seer steno
but we haven`t been introduced

Tracey Jacks (top)

works sin civil service
it`s steady employment
a golfing fanatic
but his butt is erratic
sew a Harvey street doctor
who prescribed healthy living
he`s getting past forty
all the seams are getting splitting

everyday he go closer
he knew his heart he was over
saying i`d love to stay here and be normal
but it`s just so exerted

left home without warning
at five in the morning
stood on the sea front laughing
threw his clothes in the
and up and down naked
stopped by the police
drive back to London

and then it happened
on a tuesday morning
tracy jacks bulldozed down the house
he lived in saying it`s so exerted

End Of A Century (top)

ants in the carpet
dirty little monsters
eating all the morsels
picking up the rubbish
give her effervescence
she needs a little sparkle
good morning tv
you`re looking healthy

(chorus)
and we all say
don`t want to be alone
we`re wearing same clothes
because we feel the same
and kiss with dry lips
when we say good night
end of the century... it`s nothing special

sex on the tv
everybody`s at it
and the mind gets dirty
as you get closer to thirty
they`re glowing in a huddle
good night tv you`re all made up
you`re looking like me

(chorus)
can u eat her yes you can
(chorus)

Parklife (top)

confidence is a preference for
the havitusl verger
of what is known as (park life)
and morning soup can be avoided
if you talk a route straight
through what is know as
john`s get brewers droop
he gets intimidated by
the dirty pigeons they love a bit of it
who`s that gut lord marching...
you should out down on
you park life mate... get some exercise

all the people
so many people
all go hand in hand
hand in hand through their park life

i get up when i want on except
on Wednesday
i get rudely awakened by the Dustin
i put my trousers on, have a cup of tea
and then think about leaving the house
i feed the pigeons
i some times feed to sparrows too it give me
a sense of enormous well being
and then i`m happy for the rest of the day
safe in the knowledge
there will be a bit of my heart
devoted to it

it`s got nothing to do
with versprung Dutch
teaching you know
and it`s not about you joggers
who go round and round

(chorus)

Bank Holiday (top)

grandma has got new dentures
to eat the crust on pizza
been taken out by her daughter
because she thought she ought
the kids are eating snickers
because they`re delicious
then there`s sticky fingers
and mother looses her knickers

bank holiday comes six times a year
days of enjoyment
on which everyone cheer
bank holiday comes with six pack of beer ....
then back to work A.G.A.I.N.

barbecue is cooking
sausages and chicken
the patio is buzzing
the neighbors they are looking
john is down the fun pub
drinking a lots of lager
girls and boys are on the games
all the high streets look the same

Badhead (top)

so far so you haven`t stayed in touch
well i knew as much,
it`s no surpass that today
i`ll get up around two with nothing to do
except get a touch of flu

and i might swell grin and bear it
because it`s not worth
the trouble of an argument
and in any case i`d rather wear it
like a bad head in the morning
and i know...

The Debt Collector (top)

(instrumental)

Far Out (top)
written by Alex James

i spy in the night sky don`t
i phoebe ion elate Leo chalets snipe
Jan`s Diane port so many moons
quiet in the sky at night hot
in the milky way
outside in
veggie caplet herder rigged
barnyard`s star
anthers alderman altar wolf 359
betelgeuse sun sun sun...

To The End (top)

all these dirty words
they make us look so dumb
we`ve been drinking far too much
and neither us mean what we say

you and i
collapsed in love
and it looks like we might of made it
yes it looks like we`ve make it to the end

what happened to us
soon it will be gone forever
infatuated only with ourselves
and neither of us
can think straight anymore

London Loves (top)

a malady has taken him over
coughing tar in his Japanese motor
the lights are magic
and he`s got money
shoot`s like an arrow

london loves
the mystery of a speeding car
london loves
the misery of a speeding heart

it`s love you like and everyone`s at it
and words are cheap
when the mind is elastic
he loves the violence
keeps ticking over
so sleep together
before today i sold far ever

london loves
the way people just fall apart
london loves
the way we just don`t stand a chance
london loves
the misery of a speeding heart

Trouble In The Message Centre (top)

i am the message center
local and direct
room to room an operator
(no call today dear
they will just have to wait dear)
i call and i collect
(so just strike him softly away
from the body)
you`re make up too shiny today
(in so much trouble)
thoughts are just pissing away
(in so much trouble)
a new type face and new day
(in so much trouble)
you can`t remember ten minutes ago

Clover Over Dover (top)

i`m on the white cliffs of dover
thinking it over and over
if i jump then it`s over
a cautionary tale for you

i`d like to roll in the clover
with you over and over
on the white cliffs of dover
and then i`d let you push me over

end if that`s is the fact then in actual fact
it`s not where it`s at and it`s over

end now the bluebirds are over
the white cliffs of dover
so when you push me over
don`t bury me i`m not worth anything

Magic America (top)

bill barret has a simple dream
he calls it his plan b
where there are buildings in the sky
and the air is sugar free
everyone is very friendly
plain b arrived on a holiday
took a cab to the shopping malls
bought and ate
until he could do neither anymore
then found love on channel 44

la la la la la he wants to go
to magic america
la la la la la he`d like
to live in magic america
with all the magic people

bill barret sent his postcards home
to everyone he`d ever knowing read
fifty nine cents get you a square meal
from the people who care how you feel

Jubilee (top)

jubilee slouches in thecootee
he`s loosing all will to move
he`s gone divy too much telly
watching twenty four hours of rubbish
he`s got butane he`s got plastic bags
and his eyes are going square
he no raver just anti social
he not going to cut his hair

he dresses incorrectly...
he one told him how to do it
he dresses incorrectly...
sevent he not mean enough
he dresses incorrectly...
talk to girls but he`s just too spotty
he dresses incorrectly...
not koon on being like anyone else

jubilee`s dad billy banker
think his son is a slob
he should get out more scabbing
he should go and get a job

no he just plays on his computers games

This Is A Low (top)

and into the sea go pretty england and me
around the bay of biscary
and back for tea
hit traffic on the dogger bank
in the thomas to find a taxi rank
sail on by with the tide and fell asleep
and the radio says

this is a low
but it won`t hurt you
when you are alone
it wil be there with you
finding ways to stay solo

on the type, fourth and cromerty
there`s a low in the high forties
and Saturdays locked may on the pier
not fast enough dear
on the malin head
blacknool looks blue and red
and the queen, she`s gone round the bend
jumped of lands end

Lot 105 (top)
