What Do You Know?

Everything happens
Don't look for patterns
You only perceive what you believe
You need only believe to believe

A map of illusion
Of this land of confusion
I saw the boy clad in leather
For ever and ever and ever

What do you know?
What do you know?
What do you know?
What do you know?
What do you know?

There's no turning back now
I'm under attack now
I don't need a mirror to see
Just what has happened to me

There's no contradiction
Between fact and fiction
I saw the skies open
And I heard the word spoken

What do you know?
What do you know?
What do you know?
What do you know?
What do you know?

What do you know?
What do you know?
What do you know?
What do you know?
What do you know?

Everything happens
Don't look for patterns
You only perceive what you believe
You need only believe and you'll believe

A map of illusion
Of this land of confusion
I see a boy clad in leather
For ever and ever and ever

There's no turning back now
I'm under attack now
I see the skies are open
And I hear the word spoken

You only perceive what you believe
You need only believe to believe

What do you know?
What do you know?
What do you know?
What do you know?
What do you know?

What Ever Happened?

What ever happened to twin sets?
What ever happened to Hi-fi?
What ever happened to TV sex?
What ever happened to you and I?

Your passion is a product
of highlight and detail.
That come hither look--
Bonus offer retail.

Whatever happened to pick-up trucks?
Whatever happened to yellow pages?
Whatever happened to burning books?
Whatever happened to new ages?

Your emotions are cheap--
Cut, price, cash and carry.
You wear your heart on your sleeve
For any Tom, Dick, or Harry.

Your love is a cashed-in cheque.
Oh oh, that's the way of all flesh!

Whatever happened to Chairman Mao?
Whatever happened to God above?
Whatever happened to the cow?
Whatever happened to plug-in love?

Your pasteurised life--
So fit for consumption.
Ooh, those undressing eyes--
So strictly commercial.

Your love is a cashed-in cheque
Oh oh, that's the way of all flesh!
All flesh!
All flesh!

What You Mean To Me


There's a road ahead
Past a stormy sea
There I will return
That's just what you mean to me

'Neath a darkening sky
Where no soul is free
There my lover lies
That's just what you mean to me
Just exactly what you mean to me
What you mean to me
Just exactly what you mean to me

Have no need for fate
I've got destiny
All things come to pass
That's just what you mean to me
Just exactly what you mean to me
What you mean to me
Just exactly what you mean to me

I contemplate every moment
Let's make history
Tired of sharing my loneliness alone
That's just what you mean to me
Just exactly what you mean to me

Someday soon you'll know
One day soon you'll see
Why I sing this song
That's just what you mean to me
Just exactly what you mean to me
What you mean to me
Just exactly what you mean to me

This whole crazy world
Don't amount to more than a hill of beans
Tired of sharing my loneliness alone
I wanna live my dreams
I contemplate every moment
Let's make history
It's time now to be the future

That's just what you mean to me
Just exactly what you mean to me
What you mean to me
Just exactly what you mean to me

It's time now to be the future
Let's make history

When Love Turns Around

What do you get when love turns around
The hate is just a state in your mind
You say that you know me but some things are hard to find
When love turns around you
When love turns around you

What do you forget when love turns around
The state is just a hate in your mind
You say that you know me but some things are easy to find
When love turns around you
When love turns around you

Although your life is plain
Lose as you win it's all the same
When love turns around you
When love turns around you

[Solo]

You say that you know me but some things are hard to find
When love turns around you
When love turns around you
When love turns around you
When love turns around you

And you, you
And you and you and you and you and you
And you and you and you and you and you

Who'll Help Me To Forget?

Now that your love's not real
You leave me lying on my own
I find it kinda rich you know
When something goes to nothing
Then again I guess I should've known

Was it all a waste of time
A game I'm not supposed to win
No matter what I try
It seems to make no difference
I'll just have to start all over again

I'm trying oh so hard to be a man about it
I'd like to see your point of view
But you always refuse to even talk about it
This isn't just a phase I'm going through

Now you've made up your mind
Please tell me why is life so cruel
While you act the Lear of love
You have me cast down as the fool
But there is a question
That's still unanswered yet
I said who'll help me to forget

Why Can't I Touch It?

Well it seems so real I can see it
And it seems so real I can feel it
And it seems so real I can taste it
And it seems so real I can hear it
So why can't I touch it?
So why can't I touch it?

Then it looks so real I can see it
And it feels so real I can feel it
And it tastes so real I can taste it
And it sounds so real I can hear it
So why can't I touch it?
So why can't I touch it?

Then it looks so real I can feel it
And it feels so real I can taste it
And it tastes so real I can hear it
And it sounds so real I can see it
So why can't I touch it?
So why can't I touch it?

Now it is so real I can see it
And it is so real I can feel it
And it is so real I can hear it
And it is so real I can be it
So why can't I touch it?
So why can't I touch it?

Why She's A Girl From The Chainstore

Why she's a girl from the chainstore
Why she's a girl from the chainstore
She told me my attitude was wrong
I had to find out where she came from

Why she's a girl from the chainstore
Why she's a girl from the chainstore
Her name was written on her coat
Her life was a miserable anecdote

She loved her mother and her father
They never missed her birthday
Listen to everything they said
Like never miss your birthday

Why she's a girl from the chainstore
Why she's a girl from the chainstore
A product of environment
Another flesh wound in a tenement

Why she's a girl from the chainstore
Why she's a girl from the chainstore

Why she's a girl from the chainstore
Why she's a girl from the chainstore
Facing Bernstein's barrier
Waiting for someone to marry her

Why she's a girl from the chainstore
Why she's a girl from the chainstore
Down there at the discotheque
Waiting for someone to bite her neck.

Wish I Never Loved You

No matter what I try is no good for you
Everything that I say, everything that I do
It's crystal clear now that we're going nowhere
And that once was a dream has become this nightmare
Wish I never loved you but I just can't let go

Now I know how it feels to have loved and lost
Because of pride
To be deserted so that hurt is all that's left inside
I'm ashamed I've been blamed so much I wanted to die
Tell me why, tell me why, tell me why, tell me why
Wish I never loved you but I just can't let go

What makes me think I mean nothing to you ?
Everything that you say, everything that you do
All you excuses, the lies you invent
Provide more than a little discouragement
Wish I never loved you but I just can't let go

Now I know how it fells to have loved and lost
Because of pride
To be deserted so that hurt is all that's left inside
I'm ashamed I've been blamed so much I wanted to die
Tell me why, tell me why, tell me why, tell me why

Without You

I'm running out of valuable time
Without you
Am I a victim of your serial crime
Or just a taboo
You know that

Whenever we're together you just tear me apart
A filament of my illumination
Love that's never ever isn't really that smart
How could I be so blind

Since you left me I live life day by day
Without you
And at the risk of sounding like a cliche
It's making me blue
You know that

Whenever we're together you just tear me apart
A filament of my illumination
Love that's never ever isn't really that smart
How could I be so blind
I just can't get you out of my mind

Is that fear a loathing that I see shine through your eyes
A sheep in wolf's clothing well it took me by suprise

Whenever we're together you just tear me apart
A filament of my illumination
Love that's never ever isn't really that smart
How could I be so blind
I just can't get you out of my mind

Is that fear a loathing that I see shine through your eyes
A sheep in wolf's clothing would have fell for your disguise
A sheep in wolf's clothing well it took me by surprise
How could I be so blind
I just can't get you out of my mind
Out of my mind

You Know You Can't Help It

you know you can't help it when you see that girl
you know you can't help undressing her
you know you can't help thinking what shes got
you know you can't help it you just can't help it!

you know you can't help it getting into her
you know you can't help it 'cos she's your world
you know you can't help that sex is good
you know you can't help it you just can't help it!

sex is known as a screw
a bloody silly thing to do
but anyway we're all
gonna do it 'cos it's great

you know you can't help whats between her thighs
you know you can't help that honesty lies
you know you can't help what's old but new
you know you can't help it you just can't help it!

sex was made for you
causes deaths and murders too
love makes war it depends
which side you're on

you know you can't help when something rings true
you know you can't help when touch touches you
you know you can't help that you're stone cold
you know you can't help it you just can't help it!
