BIG THING 

Get it up get it out get it in time Hang it up hanging out hanging on a big thing Move it in move it out move up the line Bang it up bang it out banging on a big thing Brothers and sisters let me hear it Get it up get it on get it in time Give me the green light and watch me move it Move it up move it out move up the line This is temptation power rotation Give me the friction and watch me make it Make it up making out making it slide So glad you came along This time you won't be wrong You love to turn it on And you're not the only one Get it up get it out get it in time Hang it up hanging out hanging on a big thing Move it in move it out move up the line Bang it up bang it out banging on a big thing Brothers and sisters we can take it Shake it up shake it out shake it all the time Give me the suction we can stick it Lick it up suck it up stick it outside This is temptation (station) power rotation (to station) Give me the play list and watch me eat it Eat it up beat it up beat it in time So glad you came along This time you won't be wrong You love to turn it on And you're not the only one Get it up get it out get it in time Hang it up hanging out hanging on a big thing Move it in move it out move up the line Bang it up bang it out banging on a big thing So glad you came along This time you won't be wrong You love to turn it on And you're not the only one. Get it up get it out get it in time Hang it up hanging out hanging on a big thing Move it in move it out move up the line Bang it up bang it out banging on a big thing

I DON'T WANT YOUR LOVE

I don't mind if you're keeping someone else behind I don't care 'cos you've got something I can share Hey take a chance even if it's only, only while we're dancing In the light of your second sight Because when you understand me you might feel good around me now I don't want your love to break me down I don't want your love so turn it around I won't turn you out If you've got someone else Someone else you care about Because you must realize My obsessive fascination is in your imagination now I don't want your love to break me down (I don't want your love I don't want your love) I don't want your love so turn it around (I don't want your love I don't want your love) Your rhythm is the power to move me It's something you control completely I don't want your love I don't want your love (I don't want your love) Middle 8: I like noise 'cos I like waking up the house I cannot sit down I can't shut up my mouth But when you understand me you might feel good around me now I don't want your love to break me down (I don't want your love I don't want your love) I don't want your love so turn it around (I don't want your love I don't want your love) Your rhythm is the power to move It's something you control completely I don't want your love I don't want your love (I don't want your love)

 

ALL SHE WANTS IS

All she wants is All she wants is All she wants is All she wants is All she wants is All she wants is Spend your money on the corner now You know you've got to save some for the shoeshine boys You've been pulling them by the hand inside Oh collecting all your toys If you need a lead to heaven now Just stick around you're gonna be there What do you care What do you dare What does your heart say now All she wants is All she wants is All she wants is Divine intervention couldn't keep the word from leaking out With your pleasure in suspension Not to mention what you hang it around If you need a lead to heaven yeah A place to share in every position What do you care What do you dare What does your heart say now All she wants is All she wants is All she wants is More.

 

TOO LATE MARLENE

Walking out of nowhere and I let you in 'til my imagination went for a spin I seen you every night been making out since then and still I wonder why everybody's saying that ice is thin and I think I know you just a little bit by now ( just a little bit by now ) and I think I can show you you see baby I don't want to fight about it. SEND DOWN YOUR RAIN THEN WHO'S TO BLAME AND YOU'LL UNDERSTAND BECAUSE IT'S MUCH TOO LATE TO CHANGE. Awaken to this hunger and then watch my heat Grow paler than the moonlight that you made me eat And if we run our lives along a one way street We'll always wonder why every time it still tastes just as sweet And I think I know you just a little bit by now (just a little bit by now) And I think I can show you You see baby I don't want to fight about it CHORUS Send down your rain Then who's to blame And you'll understand because it's much too late to change I will explain (too late) We're too much the same (too late) You see baby I don't want to fight about it CHORUS Send down your rain Then who's to blame And you'll understand because it's much too late to change I will explain (too late) We're too much the same (too late) No I won't leave because it's just too late Marlene Too late too late too late too late Marlene It's too late to leave now Its too late to leave Marlene Too late too late too late Marlene.

DRUG (IT'S JUST A STATE OF MIND) 

Take me every morning Take me every night Take me when you're feeling low Take me when you want to stay Take me, Take me, Take me. Before you slide into the wide there's something I want you to know (What you see is what you want) In all your stretch of consciousness you've still got a long way to go (What you want is what you need) Some make you spin, some make you sweat It's only here for you to choose (choose me) And if you would try an alternative high Then tell me what have you got to lose now Take me every morning Take me every night Take me when you're feeling low Take me when you want to stay up all night Up all night (the hit the hit) The hit to fit reality it's just a state of mind (What you see is what you want) And you'll admit it's more than just an axe that you've got to grind (What you want is what you need) We'll make a spin, we'll make sweat All you've got to do is use me (use me) Some like it hot but I like it wet So tell me what we got to lose now Take me every morning Take me every night Take me when you're feeling low Take me when you want to stay up all night Up all night A drug, it's a drug A drug, it's a drug A drug, it's a drug. Use me, use me A drug, it's a drug Use me, use me A drug, it's a drug Use me, use me A drug, it's a drug Use me. use me A drug, its a drug Take me every morning (take me) Take me every morning (take me) Take me every morning Take me every night Take me when you're feeling low Take me when you want to stay Take me every morning Take me every night Take me when the feelings low Take me when the mood is right Take me every morning Take me every night Take me when the beat is slow Take me when the moon is right Up all night Take me every morning Take me every night Take me when you're feeling low Take me when you want to stay Up all night

DO YOU BELIEVE IN SHAME ? 

Do you believe in love? Do you believe in shame? If love can conquer all then why do we only feel the pain? I heard you speak my name heard you singing the Stones Maybe heard you laughing in a line of static on my telephone So why your eyelids are closed inside a case of rust And did you have to change all you're poets fire into frozen dust I've tried to justify it to learn from your mistake But where's the stupid lie that has to make it's point with such a pointless waste. Come out Do you believe in shame? Do you believe in love? And if they taste the same would you love again or abandon both? I don't think I ever can believe my friend has gone Keep saying it's alright I'm going to bring you back But I know I'm wrong There's nothing I can say there's nothing left to do It's just that lately I feel so damn lonely when I think of you And it may seem selfish now but I'll hold on to the memory Until all this fear is washed away Do you believe in love? Do you believe in life? 'Cos I believe a little part of you inside of me will never die.

PALOMINO

She lays on the wall watching the strangers drift away Midday is all thick with the sun of Arabia She surrenders her voices they gather on the wind Talking, chanting, breathing into her body yesterday's Awaken beside the scent of burned sugar on her skin Painting eyes thick with the color she brings in Always sure and strong when the lightning tumbles down Don't you frown everything will be in time for this evening If there's secrets she has to be party to every one of them If there's heaven she gets to the heart And you'll wonder why she says When I run out of blue Help me rise instead Now I can run to you Why she says when I run out of blue Give me red instead Now let me run (now let me run) Middle. I there's secrets she has to be party to every one of them If there's heaven she gets to the heart And you'll know just why she says When I run out of blue Help me rise instead Now I can run to you Why she says when I run out of blue Give me red instead Now let me run Why she says when I run out of blue Help me rise instead Now I can run to you Why she says when I run out of blue Give me red instead

LAND

Away from you Away from here Away from you Stay for me Stay for me Stay for me Baby I'm really sorry to break your dream when it's so early Headlights on the window pane, they're getting lost in the light of day Tomorrow is today and soon my ship will sail Away from here To walk a howling sealane Stay for me Your love is life For love is land Baby, just hear my story before I leave before we write the end Standing across the ocean stream I'll need to know I'll need your country then Tomorrow and today you keep my landfall safe Away from here (away from here) To walk a howling sealane (away from you) Stay for me (stay for me) I need your love to land Middle Away from here (away from here) To walk a howling sealane Stay for me (stay for me) Your love is life For love is land Love is land Repeat till fade.

 

THE EDGE OF AMERICA

Walk there edge of America A concrete beach to scrape my head Inside the subway stinking fear and shame become the violent breath The vigilante's out on dawn patrol But now there's nothing left to hide I'm just a number on the metal fence which marks the great divide (Sing it) Hey boy give your dreams a rest If you're tired of searching this is where it ends There's nothing left to lose, nothing to protest Learn to love your anger now Anger here is all you possess Welcome to the edge Below the towers of the citadel Seems someone overlooked the cost Forgotten soldier of paradise, now paradise is lost Recognition never realized Salvation lost among the crowd So tell me here beside the sterile sea, where is your nation now. (We say) Hey boy give your dreams a rest If you're tired of searching this is where it ends There's nothing left to lose, nothing to protest Learn to love your anger now Anger here is all you possess Welcome to the edge.

 

I BELIEVE/ALL I NEED TO KNOW (B-SIDE ON ALL SHE WANTS IS) 

The taxman's in your pocket book, the pressmen are by the bar And all the world is at your door It's strange that you should lock it up then preach an open heart But you know what they're waiting for You can turn your face away now and don't think twice I'm just the ordinary guy you used to know I'm not after your money or even your advice I believe you'll follow me it's all I need to know To walk away I was tempted by the devil in his deep blue swimming pool Until the devil's makeup ran And my future is in the stranglehold of ever changing rules I don't intend to understand You can stop pretending now that I had you fooled I'm still the ordinary guy you used to know I'm not after your money to paralyze my soul I believe you'll follow me it's all I need to know Promise me you'll try to understand before I go To walk away You can turn your face away now and don't think twice I'm just the ordinary guy you used to know I'm not after your money or even your advice I believe you'll follow me it's all I need to know Promise me, you'll try to understand before I go All I need to All I need to All I need to know. Repeat last three lines to fade.

 

GOD (B-SIDE ON DO YOU BELIEVE IN SHAME ?)

God created the world, Then created the Devil to blame for his mistakes I closed the door of my hotel room behind me, It was like closing a chapter in the book of life. Outside thirty floors below I could hear the police Using their sirens like wolf whistles to pick up young girls. On TV Oliver North (his fifteen minutes of fame ticking steadily away) Was being fuzzy about crucial events which had happened a year earlier What a flake...but then who isn't? That was Regan's defence at least. The worst thing is how politics begin to lead into your life. Back in our innocence we used to simply stick two fingers up to politics, Say "fuck the Queen", that was about all you had to say anyway, And go back to the more important business of making music. So why was I sitting there feeling angry about - Covert operations and illegal aid to the contras? I mean I'm not even American (may be we all are a little bit). Then I realised it was just the idea that in this particular democracy And probably every other one in the world, there is somebody in power Who thinks he is more right than all the people who put him there, All the people who for once in their lives took an interest. Outside the wind was howling the "Who Who's" from Sympathy for the Devil Round and round the concrete hotel walls and corners. That was then, this is...!

THIS IS HOW A ROAD GETS MADE (B-SIDE ON DO YOU BELIEVE IN SHAME ?)

Somebody walked on a virgin (land). Someone else saw their tracks and followed them, leaving a path. It seemed as though i were looking down the hill when I first saw it, But, as I walked on, I realized I was going up. Somebody whistled behind and turning round, they seemed far below. Then I came to where there had been a fire and was shaded From the sun by the trees. Figure of eight. It's our year, it always was. Credentials: Made of earth, Drinks water, Breathes air, Makes fire.
