"Lifeguard Sleeping, Girl Drowning"

Always looking for attention
always needs to be mentioned
who does she
think she should be?
the shrill cry through darkening air
doesn't she know he's already
had such a busy day?
SOMEBODY TELL HER...SHHH
It was only a test
but she swam too far
against the tide
she deserves all she gets
the sky became mad with stars
as an out-stretched arm slowly
disappears
OH HURRAY
Please don't worry
there'll be no fuss
she was...NOBODY'S NOTHING
When he awoke
the sea was calm
and another day passes like a dream

"Used To Be A Sweet Boy"

Used to be a sweet boy
holding so tightly
to Daddy's hand
but that was all
in some distant land
Blazer and tie
and a big bright healthy smile
used to make all
of our trials worthwhile
Used to be a sweet boy
and I'm not to blame
but something went wrong
something went wrong
and I know
I can't be to blame

"The Lazy Sunbathers"

A world war
was announced
days ago
but they didn't know
the lazy sunbathers
the lazy sunbathers
the sun burns through
to the planet's core
and it isn't enough
they want more
Nothing
appears
to be
between the ears of
the lazy sunbathers
too jaded
to question stagnation
the sun burns through
to the planet's core
and it isn't enough
they want more
Religions fall
children shelled
"...CHILDREN SHELLED? THAT'S ALL
VERY WELL, BUT WOULD YOU
PLEASE KEEP THE NOISE
DOWN LOW?
BECAUSE YOU'RE WAKING
THE LAZY SUNBATHERS..."

"Speedway"

And when you slam
down the hammer
can you see it in your heart?
All of the rumours
keeping me grounded
I never said that they were
completely unfounded
when you slam
down the hammer
can you see it in your heart?
can you delve so low?
and when you're standing
on my fingers
can you see it in your heart?
and when you try
to break my spirit
it won't work
because there's nothing left to break
anymore
All of the rumours
keeping me grounded
I never said that they were
completely unfounded
You won't sleep
until the earth that wants me
finally has me
oh you've done it now
You won't rest
until the hearse that becomes me
finally takes me
oh you've done it now
You won't smile
until my loving mouth
is shut good and proper
FOREVER
All of the rumours
keeping me grounded
I never said that they were
completely unfounded
and all those lies
written lies, twisted lies
well, they weren't lies
they weren't lies
they weren't lies
I never said
I could have mentioned your name
I could have dragged you in
guilt by implication
by association
I've always been true to you
in my own strange way
I've always been true to you
in my own sick way
I'll always stay true to you

"Whatever Happens, I Love You"

Late, secret means
But never in my favour
But when all is said and done
It's you I love
Cold loving prose
We stole each other's clothes
But when all is said and done
It's you I love
Yes, yes, yes, oh, yes
Oh no, yes, yes, yes, yes, yes, yes
Oh, yes, yes, yes, yes, yes, yes, yes
Oh...
Yes, yes...
Fights for rights
Everyone's oh so quick with advice
And when they've all said their piece
It's still you I love
Now just like then
Then, then, then
Then, then, yes, yes
No, yes, yes, yes, yes, yes
Yes, yes, oh...
Mmm...

"Have-A-Go Merchant"

Have a go
When the pubs all close
And have a go when they open
Then have a go by the traffic lights
Cut up or shut up, you're alright !
And as always I'm here right behind you
And as always there's time, so have another go
Oh...
A small baby girl cradled in your arms
Your one big contribution
We'll never know
We'll never know
We'll never know
We'll never know
Ah, yes
Ah, yes
Oh...
Ha ha, ha ha, ha ha
Ah, ah, ha ha
A small girl runs crying, through the park
So freely her daddy berates her
Right now, so for the rest of her life
She is convinced that her daddy hates her
Oh...
Ha ha, ha ha, ha ha
Oh, oh, ha ha
Oh...
Ha ha, ha ha, ha ha
Oh, oh, ha ha
Oh...
Ha ha, ha ha, ha ha
Oh, oh, ha ha
Oh...
Ha ha, ha ha, ha ha
Oh, oh, ha ha
Oh...
Ha ha, ha ha, ha ha
Oh, oh, ha ha
Oh...
Ha ha, ha ha, ha ha
Oh, oh, ha ha

"Boxers"

Losing in front of your home crowd
You wish the ground
Would open and take you down
And will time ever pass ?
Will time never pass for us ?
Your weary wife is walking away
Your nephew, it's true
Well, he thinks the world of you
And I have to close my eyes
Oh...
Losing in front of your home town
The crowd call your name
They love you all the same
The sound, the smell, and the spray
You will take them all away
And they'll stay
Till the grave
Your weary wife is walking away
Your nephew, it's true
Well, he thinks the world of you
And I have to close my eyes
Oh...
(Unknown sample ???)
Losing in your home town
Hell is the bell
That we'll not ring again
You will return one day
Because of all the things that you see
When your eyes close
Your weary wife - walking away
Your nephew, it's true
He still thinks the world of you
And I have to dry my eyes
Oh...
(Unknown sample ???)

"Moonriver"

Moonriver
Wider than a mile
I'll be crossing you in style
Someday
Oh, Dreammaker
You heartbreaker
Wherever you're going
I'm going your way
Two drifters
Off to see the world
I'm not so sure the world
Deserves us
We're after
The same rainbow's end
How come it's just around the bend ?
It's always just around the bend ?
Moonriver
Wider than a mile
I'll be crossing you in style
Someday Oh, Dreammaker
You heartbreaker
Wherever you're going

Two drifters
Off to see the world
I'm not so sure the world
Deserves us
We're after
The same rainbow's end
It's just around the bend
It's just around the bend
It's just around the bend
It's just around the bend
Oh !

"Southpaw Grammar" (1995)

"The Teachers Are Afraid Of The Pupils"

There's too many people
Planning your downfall
When your spirit's on trial
These nights can be frightening
Sleep transports sadness
To some other mid-brain
And somebody here
Will not be here next year
So you stand by the board
Full of fear and intention
And, if you think that they're listening
Well, you've got to be joking
Oh, you understand change
And you think it's essential
But when your profession
Is humiliation
Say the wrong word to our children...
We'll have you, oh yes, we'll have you
Lay a hand on our children
And it's never too late to have you
Mucus on your collar
A nail up through the staff chair
A blade in your soap
And you cry into your pillow
To be finished would be a relief
To be finished would be a relief
To be finished would be a relief
To be finished would be a relief
To be finished would be a relief
To be finished would be a relief
Say the wrong word to our children...
We'll have you, oh yes, we'll have you
Lay a hand on our children
And it's never too late to have you
To be finished would be a relief
To be finished would be a relief
To be finished would be a relief
To be finished would be a relief
To be finished would be a relief
To be finished would be a relief
I'm very glad this thing has come
Sometimes I'm so glad
Never bother to play the tunes
I've seen it coming for dear life
