ESP

Do you believe in ESP
I do and I'm try'n'a get through to you
If you're picking up off me
Then you know just what to do
Think

Brainwaves transmitted from my mind
Of a magnetic kind
I don't know what to do
If I can't get through to you
So think

Do you believe in ESP
I've been try'n'a get through to you
If you've been picking up off me
Then you'll know just what to do
Don't you

Everybody's Happy Nowadays


I was so tired of being upset
Always wanting something I never could get
Life's an illusion love is a dream
But I don't know what it is

Everybody's happy nowadays
Everybody's happy nowadays

I was so tired of being upset
Always wanting something I never could get
Life's an illusion love is a dream
But I don't know what it is 'cos

Everybody's happy nowadays
Everybody's happy nowadays

Life's an illusion love is the dream
But I don't know what it is
Everyone's saying things to me
But I know it's okay okay

Everybody's happy nowadays
Everybody's happy nowadays

Everybody's happy nowadays
Everybody's happy nowadays

Life's an illusion love is a dream
Life's an illusion love is the dream
Life's the illusion love is a dream
Life's the illusion love is the dream

Everybody's happy nowadays
Everybody's happy nowadays
Todays are good

Bet you are tired of being upset
Always wanting something you never can get
Life's no illusion love's not a dream
Now I know just what it is

Everybody's happy nowadays
Everybody's happy nowadays

Fast Cars

They're nice and precise, each one begins and ends
They may win you admirers, but they'll never earn you friends
Fast cars, fast cars
Fast cars, I hate fast cars

They're so depressing going around and around
Ooh, they make me dizzy, oh fast cars they run me down
Fast cars, fast cars,
Fast cars, I hate fast cars

Sooner or later, you're gonna listen to Ralph Nader
I don't wanna cause a fuss, but fast cars are so dangerous
Fast cars, fast cars
Fast cars, I hate fast cars, fast cars
Fast cars, fast cars
I hate fast cars

Fiction Romance

A fiction romance
I love this love story
That never seems to happen in my life
A fiction romance
All love and glory
That never seems to happen in my life

Dreams of love and dreams of pain
And dreams again again again
A gain which can be yours just by taking hold
Dreams that I can realize
Are quite contained within your eyes
Say fiction romance is not so old

A fiction romance
The love of the ages
That never seems to matter in my life
A fiction romance
On magazine pages
That never seems to feature in my life

Dreaming scheming unaware
That quite somewhere some unaware folk
Are not thinking 'bout what they have been told
Something strange is happening to
The way I see the world I view
That fiction romance is not sold

As a fiction romantic
I never expected
All these things to happen in real life
And no fiction romantic
Could ever've predicted
All the things that happen in my life

When I don't know what to do
I just think about me and you
If I was a little stronger then I'd be bold
Something strange is happening to me
I don't know what these shivers mean to you
Is this fiction romance getting hold

Flat-Pack Philosophy

I'm cracking up can't take the strain
From heaven to hell and back again

And so each night I say a prayer
Someone to love someone to care

Hold on
Why am I here ?
What are we living for ?
All of my hopes, dreams and desires
Assembly required
That's flat-pack philosophy

So when my thoughts make me depressed
I think the best and fuck the rest

Despite it all the future's key
The double decker bus, the one I didn't see

Hold on
Why am I here ?
What are we living for ?
All of my hopes, dreams and desires
Assembly required
That's flat-pack philosophy

Hold on
Why am I here ?
What are we living for ?
All of my hopes, dreams and desires
Assembly required
That's flat-pack philosophy

Flat-pack philosophy
Flat-pack philosophy

Flat-pack philosophy
Flat-pack philosophy

Friends

Well I've been up all night
Couldn't get to dream at all
Trying hard not to make a decision
You know it doesn't seem right
When your back's to the wall
To be accused of sensationalism
But the way things are going
Wouldn't be at all surprised
If a song that I liked won the next Eurovision

I turn around and it all looks the same
I don't even know if I'll ever be loved again
The only thing I can rely on is change

It's a mixed up world
These are mixed up times
And the recipe of life is mixed up too
But if it's the quality of ingredients that matter
I would award myself a cordon bleu
But I can't help thinking
That you wouldn't understand
Unless I did a lot of explaining to you

I look around but it still looks the same
I don't even know if I'll ever be loved again
The only thing I can rely on is change

You know I've often wondered
If what you're telling me is true
But I know that I can make it
If I have my friends to see me through

I look around but it still looks the same
I don't even know if I'll ever be loved again
The only thing I can rely on is change

You know I've often wondered
If what you're telling me is true
But I know that I can make it
If I have my friends to see me through

It's a mixed up world
These are mixed up times
And the recipe of life is mixed up too
But if it's the quality of ingredients that matter
I would award myself a cordon bleu
But I can't help thinking
That you wouldn't understand
Unless I did a lot of explaining to you

I look around but it still looks the same
I don't even know if I'll ever be loved again
The only thing I can rely upon is change

I look around but it still looks the same
I don't even know if I'll ever be loved again
The only thing I can rely upon is change

Give It To Me

When I look into your eyes
I can see the fire of desire reflect to me
Give me your love
Give it to me Give it to me

Holding me the way you do
I just can't deny that you feel the same way too
Give me your love
Give it to me Give it to me

Don't you know that I care about you
But I just can't wait
Give it give it to me

When you're lying next to me
I just get the urge to consumate extacy
Give me your love
Give it to me Give it to me

Holding me the way you do
I just can't deny that you feel the same way too
Give me your love
Give it to me give it to me

Don't you know that I care about you
But I just can't wait
Give it give it to me

Look at me while I tell you 'bout love
Don't you know that you should never doubt love
With you near I feel you warm inside
When it comes to the real thing there's no compromise

Don't you know that I care about you
But I just can't wait
Don't you know that I care about you
So why should we hesitate
After all we're in love with each other
So why should we wait

Give it give it to me

God, What Have I Done

Breakfast in the room continental
So went to find a small café
Latin lovers can be temperamental
You have to be careful what you say

God what have I done?

Trying hard to leave the past behind me
Hoping to avoid the same mistake
Haunting memories that still remind me
How lonely is the road that I must take

God what have I done?
Everything seems so strange
God what have I done?
Everything seems so strange

Harmony In My Head

Whenever I'm in doubt about things I do
I listen to the high street wailing sounds in a queue
I go out for my walking sailing social news
Don't let it get me down I'm long in the tooth

When I'm out in the open clattering shoppers around
The neon signs that take your eyes to town
Your thoughts are chosen your world is advertising now
And extravagance matters to worshippers of the pound

But it's a harmony in my head
It's a harmony in my head

The tortured faces expression out aloud
And life's little ironies seem so obvious now
Your cashed in cheques have placed the payments down
And there's a line of buses all wait to take you out

But it's a harmony in my head
It's a harmony in my head
It's a...

It's a harmony in my head
It's a harmony in my head
It's a harmony in my head
It's a harmony in my head

Whenever I'm in doubt about things I do
I listen to the high street wailing sounds in a queue
I go out for my walking sailing social news
Don't let it get me down I'm long in the tooth

'Cos it's a harmony in my head
It's a harmony in my head
It's a harmony in my head
It's a harmony in my head

Hold Me Close

You say the world's just going mad
I say that things are not too bad
But it could be better all the same
You know how you want life to be
I know that I may disagree
But neither of us is to blame

Just hold me close don't let me go
I couldn't stand it
You're just what I've been waiting for

You seem to never notice me
I dream that one day you will see
The love meant for both of us to share
You try you try to be carefree
I smile I know you're just like me
The search for truth's an awesome dare

Just hold me close don't let me go
I couldn't stand it
You're just what I've been waiting for

Just hold me close don't let me go
Not for a minute
You're just what I've been living for

When winter comes and cold winds blow
I'll keep your secret
And if they ask me I don't know
I'll keep your secret
In the middle of the darkest night
Your's will be the light that guides me through
There's no one like you
