Unfinished Business
Written by: Dave Davies & Richard Lawrence

Published by: Dave Davies/April Music (PRS)

Lyrics:
Took a walk outside, the truth was on my side,
But I didn't even make the corner.
Revolution in my sights, the time seems so right,
But I never even saw it coming.
Can't let it go. Oh no, no.

Can't you hear me call, bang my head against the wall,
Can't stay around this place forever.
Can't you see, we gotta be free,
We all gotta come together.
Don't let go, oh no.

Unfinished business,
You thought you'd keep me quiet.
You put a bullet in my side, but you can't put out my light.
Unfinished business,
Yes, love's the only way to find peace today.

The future's here today, we gotta find a way,
To put all the pain behind you.
You gotta put down the guns, all religion is one,
Politicians only want to blind you.
Break away, oh there's a way.

Oh, the message is clear, wipe away all the tears,
And build a better world around you.
Got to give out your love to each and every one,
Can't you see it's only fear that holds you,
Let it go. Oh, let it go.

Unfinished business,
I though that I was right[?].
What that fool put out that night, [?] burn so bright.
Unfinished business,
Oh yes, love's the only way to find peace today.

So you thought you'd take my life,
Put a bullet in my side, but you can't put out my light.
Unfinished business,
Love's the only way to find peace today.
Unfinished business
Unfinished business
Unfinished business

There's a long road behind you,
It's a hard life if you make it one
Come on to the other side [?]
There is no place to hide

Unfinished business
Unfinished business

Lyrics:
Long ago life was clean
Sex was bad and obscene
And the rich were so mean
Stately homes for the Lords
Croquet lawns, village greens
Victoria was my queen
Victoria, Victoria, Victoria, 'toria

I was born, lucky me
In a land that I love
Though I am poor, I am free
When I grow I shall fight
For this land I shall die
Let her sun never set
Victoria, Victoria, Victoria, 'toria
Victoria, Victoria, Victoria, toria

Land of hope and gloria
Land of my Victoria
Land of hope and gloria
Land of my Victoria
Victoria, 'toria
Victoria, Victoria, Victoria, 'toria

Canada to India
Australia to Cornwall
Singapore to Hong Kong
From the West to the East
From the rich to the poor
Victoria loved them all
Victoria, Victoria, Victoria, 'toria
Victoria, Victoria, Victoria

The Video Shop

Lyrics:
The local factory's been pulled down
By an overseas corporation
Now all of my brothers are looking around
For alternative occupation

I was sitting by the telly with my brother, Kenny
When suddenly the penny dropped
While all of my brothers are sitting at home
I've got a bank loan and I've opened up my very own
Video shop
Video shop

At the video shop
I can fly, fly you away

Comedy and tragedy are all sitting on my shelf
And if you've got a fantasy
For a small rental fee
You can set yourself free
At my video shop
At my video shop
At the video shop

I can fly, fly you away
At the video shop
Let me fly, fly you away
From all of the depression in you head
Caused by all the living in the red

I've got a bootleg version of Citizen Kane
A second hand copy of Psycho
I've taped them off the telly so you shouldn't complain
And there's no guarantee you'll get your money back again
From my video shop
My video shop

If you want to escape, I can rent you a tape
To relieve your situation
If you feel a bit low, I got a good peep show
'Cos everybody knows almost anything goes
At my video shop
At my video shop

One fifty a day and I'll fly, fly you away
It's nothing to pay to fly far, far away
I can help you through that lonely night
I've got Technicolour, black and white
I can guide you through those empty days
Make you smile and take your blues away

O let me fly you away
At my video shop
Fly, fly you away

Another factory's been knocked down
But nobody ever complains
And all of my brothers are customers now
We all play video games
I can see it in the eyes of all the lonely wives
If they're bored and they feel like a change
I do sales, rentals, even a swop
And if you feel like a change, well it can all be arranged
At my video shop
At my video shop
At my video shop

At my video shop
Let me fly, fly you away

And everyone who walks in through that door
Has got something that they're looking for
At my video shop
At my video shop
At the video shop
I can fly, fly you away

At the video shop
Let me fly, fly you away
Oh, at the video shop

Oh, at the video shop
Oh, at the video shop

Village Green

Lyrics:
Out in the country,
Far from all the soot and noise of the city,
There's a village green.
It's been a long time
Since I last set eyes on the church with the steeple
Down by the village green.
'Twas there I met a girl called Daisy
And kissed her by the old oak tree.
Although I loved my Daisy, I saw fame,
And so I left the village green.

I miss the village green,
And all the simple people.
I miss the village green,
The church, the clock, the steeple.
I miss the morning dew, fresh air and Sunday school.

And now all the houses
Are rare antiquities.
American tourists flock to see the village green.
They snap their photographs and say "Gawd darn it,
Isn't it a pretty scene?"
And Daisy's married Tom the grocer boy,
And now he owns a grocery.

I miss the village green,
And all the simple people.
I miss the village green,
The church, the clock, the steeple.
I miss the morning dew, fresh air and Sunday school.

And I will return there,
And I'll and Daisy,
And we'll sip tea, laugh,
And talk about the village green.
We will laugh and talk about the village green.

Visionary Dreamer
Written by: D.R.G. Davies

Published by: DABE Music Limited, London, 1980

Lyrics:
By your smile,
I know you think
I'm just a dreamer
And that the way I act seems
Often kind of foolish,
But eyes can lie,
And sometimes words are oh so useless.
Oh you're part of me,
The rest is history.
There is a light that shines above you when
I'm near you
That somehow tells me all the things we
never say.
And in my heart,
I sense a love that lasts for always.
Yes our dreams were true,
It's just we never knew.

Chorus
I love you,
Yes I do,
There is no doubt.
I love you,
And there ain't no doubt about it.

Repeat

In your eyes I see you a visionary dreamer,
And all at once they say you're acting like
a fool.
The world may change,
But it can never really harm you,
For there's a love that's true,
That's deep inside you.
Soon the time will come for us to say
goodbye,
But all the visions of our friendship will
remain.
And every time I see a child look to the sky,
I will remember you.
We shared a love oh so true.

Chorus
I love you,
Yes I do,
There is no doubt.
I love you,
And there ain't no doubt about it.

Now as I gaze out of my window to
the stars,
It seems somehow our little lives are oh
so strange.
I close my eyes and feel the universe within
me.
And you're part of me,
And you will always be.

Chorus
I love you,
Yes I do,
There is no doubt.
I love you,
And there ain't no doubt about it.

Voices

Lyrics:
Calling

Hear them calling, calling out your name
How can I get a message through
Hear them calling voices in my brain
How can I get close to you

When I look into your eyes
I see a complicated girl
With all the troubles of the world
Resting on your shoulders no one gives a damn
Can't you understand you gotta keep on trying
You know I'll never let you down
It's not too late for you to turn around

Voices calling, calling to you
Trying hard to get a message through
Holy calling, voices of rage
In your heart do you feel the same

I know somehow that we'll survive
All injustice in the world
All the hate and lying
Little baby let me hold you in my arms
I know the night is dark
But we can't stop trying
God knows the rain keeps beating down
But don't you know I'll never let you down

Hear them calling, calling out your name
How can I get a message through
Hear them calling voices in my brain
How can I get close to you

There's no need to be afraid
It's just an age that slowly cries
A past that's dying
Soon we'll find a better way
So put your hand in mine, we can't stop trying
You know I'll never let you down
The way seems hard but it will turn around

Voices calling, calling to you
Trying hard to get a message through
Holy calling, voices of rage
In your heart is there's room for change

Calling to you
How can I get a message through
Hear them calling, voices in my brain
How can I get close to you

Calling ... Calling ...

Voices In The Dark

Lyrics:
Voices in the subway,
Looking for the overnight.
Echo in the darkness,
Lonely cries within a sound.

A voice that has no face,
Is lost in time and inner space.
Chasing dreams that got lost in the dark.
Reaching out, always searching,
Lonely voices in the dark.

[This is Surbiton, Surbiton. The train at Platform Two is for Wimblelton and
Waterloo only.]

Lonely voices in the dark.
Lonely voices in the dark.

A voice that has no face,
Is lost in time and inner space.
Chasing dreams that got lost in the dark.
Reaching out, always searching,
Lonely voices in the dark.

Lonely voices in the dark.
Lonely voices in the dark.

Wait Till The Summer Comes Along

Lyrics:
I've been cryin' all the Winter.
I've been waiting for some good to come my way,
But I'll wait till the Summer comes along.
Dear Lord, have I done so much wrong.

How can I go on,
Wondering what I did wrong,
Can it be too much to ask?
Please, oh please, let it be.

If the Summer'll come my way,
Will I find someone to take the place of [?]?
But I'll wait till the Summer comes along.
Dear Lord, tell me what could I've done wrong.

Can it be that she,
Never wanted to,
Break some poor mother's heart?
Please, oh please, let it be.

I know my Summer'll never come.
I know I'll cry until my dying day has come.
Let the Winter roll along.
I've got nothing left but song.

Oh, oh, what's happened?
Oh, oh, what's happened?

Wall Of Fire
Written by: R. Davies

Published by: Davray Music Ltd., 1992

Chord file
Lyrics:
Standing at the end of the horizon
Looking at another setting sun
Nature gave us all these toys to play with
But we've abused them, each and every one
They stretched the chord, snapped the wire
Lit the fuse but can't retire
We're going to the wall of fire
Tip-toeing on the great high wire
Let's have a real fire

The city slickers built the great illusion
Now they're the first to crumble in the sun
Now we're going through the wall
Let's see the flames before we fall
We're going through the wall of fire
Let's have a real fire
Tip-toeing on the great high wire
Through the wall of fire

We drove on many rocky roads together
Through the storms and hurricanes we rode
Unified so no one could destroy us
We stretched the bounds
But always kept the code
Liberals shout and cause concern
Forget next week while we all burn
Let's run right through the wall of fire
Let's have a real fire
Death-defying while the flames grow higher
Through the wall of fire
Let's go through the wall of fire
Running through the wall of fire
