  • Oh I miss the womb Put me back and make it soon Where’s my bliss, what’s this sound Have you seen my solid ground All is nothing being everything Tell me why, tell me when Naked soup, tasteless bread Can I have your life instead I’m the singer, I’m the song Give it up, give it up Do me right and do me wrong Give it up, give it up Won’t you take me home please Make me feel something real Sing me from your window Let me be your side show Let me be the one to say I told you so I told you so Oh I spoke too soon All these answers make me swoon Where’s my fire, what’s this noise Is this even my own voice All is nothing though I don’t know why Please don’t let this pass me by Where’s my bliss, what’s this sound Have you seen my solid ground I’m the singer, I’m the song Give it up, give it up Do me right and do me wrong Give it up, give it up Won’t you take me home please Make me feel something real Sing me from your window Let me be your side show Let me be the one to say I told you so I told you so Baby you’re a bad man Everybody knows Better take what you can steal Before that hurricane blows You were there when Adam fell from bliss And no one knew your name Better leave now from the way you came Kneel down Make no sound Here comes your last time around Take that smile from off your lips Where you going time just slips
  • Well I don't know who you are Я не знаю, кто ты, And I don't care where you've been Мне все равно, где ты была, Please just take this deadbeat soul Просто прошу тебя: поручись за эту бестолковую душу, Let him keep the hearts he stole Сохрани все сердца, которые он разбил. And all those little lies Эта бесконечная ложь They told ya in disguise Была так хорошо замаскирована, They got you through those lonely hours Что помогла тебе справиться с одиночеством, Made you think the world was ours И ты даже верила, что весь мир принадлежит нам. I'm the man who shot the moon and cried Я из тех, кто целит в луну и плачет оттого, что не может попасть, Let those thieves and bastards all collide Так что пусть все эти подлецы и воры уничтожат друг друга. Take these words and burn them if you don't mind Пожалуйста, забудь все мои слова — сожги их. Oh sweetheart these nights were made for me Милая, такие ночи, как эта, просто созданы для меня, Still so far from where I long to be Но все равно это совсем не то, что мне нужно. You said it from the start Но ты же знала это с самого начала: Rock 'n' roll will break your heart Рок-н-ролл разобьет тебе сердце. There's a holy roller sign Мне как будто въяве показали, что будет дальше, And a chance she won't be mine И, вероятно, мы больше никогда не будем вместе: There's no teenage dreams to fill Не осталось уже подростковых фантазий - Break my heart I know you will Ты разобьешь мне сердце, даже если не хочешь этого. And we'll tumble down the street И мы будем шататься по улицам, Sleep alone in my back seat Спать на заднем сидении моей машины, Oh all that jealous talk we made А все наши ссоры из-за ревности Strung out in the soul parade Выстроятся, как на параде, чтобы мучить нас. I'm the man who shot the moon and cried Я из тех, кто целит в луну и плачет оттого, что не может попасть, Let those thieves and bastards all collide Так что пусть все эти подлецы и воры уничтожат друг друга. Take these words and burn them if you don't mind Пожалуйста, забудь все мои слова — сожги их.

  • It was time I figured out what everybody knew Life is lived in black and white if I don’t have you Oh you can make my head spin all night long By your sweet side, that’s the place where I belong Couldn’t find the answer oh I lived for ridicule Some girls they made eyes at me, played me for a fool Oh you could see through all of my charades Now you’re out there, every day your love just fades Need a little love, I won’t say no Need a little love, I won’t say no Need a little love, I won’t say no Need a little love, I won’t say no to you Need a little love, I won’t say no Need a little love, I won’t say no Need a little love, I won’t say no Need a little love, I won’t say no to you Time was just a taste of heaven, every day was bliss How can flesh and bone collide and make me feel like this You could deny this world and I’d agree Now you’re out there keeping all your love from me Maybe I’m just cursed to be the one you couldn’t save If you’d only just return then I would be your slave Oh I swear I’ll spend every day in chains Every kiss that you ever gave me still remains Need a little love, I won’t say no Need a little love, I won’t say no Need a little love, I won’t say no Need a little love, I won’t say no to you Need a little love, I won’t say no Need a little love, I won’t say no Need a little love, I won’t say no Need a little love, I won’t say no to you So on a trip to the stars Never thought I’d slip out of your atmosphere Now it’s clear If you reappear I’d pray softly and then maybe You could break this spell Need a little love, I won’t say no Need a little love, I won’t say no Need a little love, I won’t say no Need a little love, I won’t say no to you Need a little love, I won’t say no Need a little love, I won’t say no Need a little love, I won’t say no Need a little love, I won’t say no to you Need a little love, I won’t say no Need a little love, I won’t say no Need a little love, I won’t say no Need a little love, I won’t say no to you Need a little love, I won’t say no Need a little love, I won’t say no Need a little love, I won’t say no Need a little love and I won’t say no to you

  • Well I met her in a bar, the men with big guitars were playin And I listened with my ears but I couldn’t hear what she was sayin And I guess she talked with her mind But didn’t want to seem to unkind so I just laughed And kept my eyes peeled to the door………. Wondering what I was there for But it’s alright, it’s alright It’s alright, it’s alright I got my nuts from a hippy in a camper van on Saturday night Well I asked if she believed in Adam and Eve the fable And I guess she would’ve given me an answer if only she was able And she danced like a medicine man Drew a crazy picture on my hand and told me She wanted to change my point of view Asked me where I was going to Well she whispered in my ear we got to get us out of here to the country I asked her for a ride she took me aside said «try me» I thought I’m gonna wake pretty soon In the middle of a Sunday afternoon just dreamin And it was warm in the back of her van When she made me a real man
  • Well she’s halfway over this hard on son She’s not gone yet but she’s leaving And she’s quite sure she’s not the only one She’s not gone yet but she’s leaving Well there’s a quiver up her backbone, dogs in the dust She’s not gone yet but she’s leaving And she’ll take what she needs and she’ll do what she must She’s not gone yet but she’s leaving There’s a raw bone whisper underneath the cover Louder than a dead man’s drum There’s a joke that they told her when she got much older When she knew just what she’d become Oh let me tell ya that she’s… One part evil, three-fifths blind She’s not gone yet but she’s leaving And she’s oh so delicate and still don’t mind She’s not gone yet but she’s leaving Well there’s a chance that she knows where the bodies are kept She’s not gone yet but she’s leaving And she still don’t remember the tears that she wept She’s not gone yet but she’s leaving There’s a raw bone whisper underneath the cover Louder than a dead man’s drum There’s a joke that they told her when she got much older When she knew just what she’d become Oh let me tell ya now… Well she’s all too generous with my time She’s not gone yet but she’s leaving And she knows that injustice is no real crime She’s not gone yet but she’s leaving And I will always remember the way that she crawled She’s not gone yet but she’s leaving When I throw up in the rain she pretends she’s appalled She’s not gone yet but she’s leaving There’s a raw bone whisper underneath the cover Louder than a dead man’s drum There’s a joke that they told her when she got much older When she knew just what she’d become

  • Well the room was pink and the signs were serious Paperback dolls being slammed delirious Feeling like a joke in the bar underneath And it was Saturday night in the year of the good thief Well I tumbled up the stairs the wrong way ’round I hit my head on the ceiling when my feet hit the ground And then the big dumb blonde in the gold fish bowl Cried Ella’s in the band but she’s got no soul! My friend John was a serious one Buttoned up the back and a job half done Lazy old boy when the good girls turn His teeth get itchy and his rubber soles burn When will he ever learn? Well the night was spent and my money was young And then I had to get home before my neck was wrung And everybody danced in the same old way And if I’m feeling old and desperate I’ll be back some day My friend John was a serious one Buttoned up the back and a job half done Lazy old boy when the good girls turn His teeth get itchy and his rubber soles burn When will he ever learn?
  • Well there's nothing more to add before I leave This thing of ours is dead but don't you grieve Is it me or are they younger every night? Just because they can it doesn't make it all right I'm hanging by my teeth waiting on quick relief While the kids don't sleep for days I could die in a hundred odd ways And I'm so sick of hearing how your love for this has died But don't tell me you could do it if you tried It's a shame or a sham he's half as old as I am But don't tell me he could look good if he tried Well it terrifies the life from out of me It's really such a lazy way to be Hiding in the bedroom climbing up the walls You've got to kick it out of me gently Till it begs and pleads and crawls And I'm so sick of hearing how your love for this has died But don't tell me you could do it if you tried It's a shame or a sham he's half as old as I am But don't tell me he could look good if he tried And I'm so sick of hearing how your love for this has died But don't tell me you could do it if you tried It's a shame or a sham he's half as old as I am But don't tell me he could look good if he tried And wont you make sure My mother gets half my weight in gold Tell her I just did what I was told Grab your expensive coat and bury it inside But don't tell me you could do it if you tried
  • I was lost like a love sick ghost Maybe for the very first time You were there where the truth gives way Not for the very last time In a daze from your seasick ways Nobody else could thrill me In your gaze, I was paralyzed Love in the very first degree In this showdown pain was sweet I took all I could take, shook all I could shake And your moves got strange in my defeat I was nothing less than torn, crying out to be reborn Come back, baby, you can make me happy Maybe you can prove me wrong? You’re the only one who could ever save me Maybe you could prove me wrong? I’ve been living in the dark down here too long I was born once again, my love In the midst of the rainstorm I would kiss your feet and praise your name If you sign my release form In this showdown, pain was sweet I took all I could take, shook all I could shake And your moves got strange in my defeat I was nothing less than torn, crying out to be reborn Come back, baby, you can make me happy Maybe you can prove me wrong? You’re the only one who could ever save me Maybe you could prove me wrong? I’ve been living in the dark down here too long And if you should lose your way I’ll be here waiting every day Wild, wild horses couldn’t keep me From your front door, oh, I swear Come back, baby, you can make me happy Maybe you can prove me wrong? You’re the only one who could ever save me Maybe you could prove me wrong? Come back, baby, you can make me happy Maybe you can prove me wrong? You’re the only one who could ever save me Maybe you could prove me wrong? I’ve been living in the dark down here Keeping my intentions clear Out of luck in the dark down here too long
  • Well you got it so good You live for the action Used to be a has been Now you got yourself some satisfaction A dog in a bag and a bone But you’re lost in the rain 21 million miles from home You got brand new shoes A healthy fixation Atomic heart And a two for one education You’re breaking my heart all the way With your dog in a bag I need your badness just to get through the day It’s a million o’clock, too hot to sleep A rotten taste in my mouth and my eyes are deep There’s nothing much really going on up here I’m holding on for dear life and one more beer I guess you could say it’s a sick little show A bottle of troubles and a bed full of woe It’s easy to see without looking too far You’d have to be a saint to be as sick as you are Half the world’s asleep The rest of them are dreaming God forbid if you forget to close the door as you’re leaving I hate to see you in a bind With your dog in a bag Sleeping next to your ridiculous mind With a dog in a bag Sleeping next to your ridiculous mind With a dog in a bag Sleeping next to your ridiculous mind

  • Well I was chasing down flies and shooting up women Trying to get the whole thing straight in my head Lookin for a girl who’d come with me swimming And come and play tunes at the end of my bed And all the hardmen were drinkin down petrol Bamming up the girls when in came the law Heading for the door and getting tongue tied When they asked me what exactly I saw Chorus: So I’ll get some Monte Christo’s And we can all go see the band Well I may not be a looker yeah But I’ll help you any way I can Back at my room I was making me nervous Watching TV and picking my feet Wishing I was pretty and burning my shoes And wishing for once I’d kept the receipt I called myself and wondered out loud Tried to get the whole thing straight in my head I left the tape running and played it back Twice but I couldn’t make sense of what I had said Chorus Bridge: Well it may not make you handsome And it may not even make you feel aliiiiiiive You may not have the ransom But you can always count on this It’s him and them and she and me And sick and muddy, everybody Alt Chorus: So you can bring y 124a our wasters banjo Bring yer sister and her friend Diane Well I may not have a big boys pistol But I’ll help them any way I can Alt Chorus 2: And you can call me Cinderella! You can make me your best man Well you may be a right old queen But I’ll help you any way I can
  • This place was once a home, But now you're gone. Gone like the sun, You took away, It was coming so they say. This boy and his heavy heart, Were feeling small. Kicking around the leaves, It seems, We're so vacant after all. There's nothing more to say, Let me sleep these dreams away, We'll check out soon. Me and the Belle, She knows me so well, She don't want my soul, She's not in control. Oh, find me place, A discounted space, A hole in the ground, Nobody's favourite now. This night, This pretty light, With my best friends. Keeping the hounding dogs away, From my window night and day. This place was once a home But now it's still All of the stars are sleeping low On my broken windowsill Won't you let me be Just the old has-beens and me I'll check out soon Rolling in style Be gone for a while A million and one Has-beens in the sun Pretending to care Going nowhere Floating around Nobody's favourite now Well there's nothing more to say Let me sleep these dreams away And won't you let me be Just the old has-beens and me We'll check out soon Rolling in style Be gone for a while A million and one Has-beens in the sun Pretending to care Oh going nowhere Just floating around Nobody's favourite... now
  • Well I never thought of myself as a subtle kind of man I dreamed I was alive one time before the world began And every time I walk the street my troubles drag my heels I could not pretend that I wasn’t lost in how it feels I’m gonna be your Elvis I’m gonna be your Steve McQueen I was dead long before I was born, my mother did proclaim Send him back to Jesus, tell him I was not to blame Well well well tell me how can I refuse When every angel left in heaven bet that I would lose The sound of frozen bells and horns was all that I could hear And every word that I ignored was ringing in my ear I could not pretend that I was even half amused When all they ever told me left me shaken and confused I’m gonna be your Elvis I’m gonna be your Steve McQueen I’m gonna be the man you could not dream Well I shaked out right on down the road til no one knew my name The future came and went so fast I almost bet the same I slept a guilty sleep for seven years I was a ghost Of everyone I ever loved I loved myself the most When everyone was breaking up I was breaking down I kept myself amused in high heeled shoes and sequin gowns Those voices on the radio, they all just made me numb So I covered up my ears with bandages and bubble gum And I boarded up the windows and I denied that I was me I sold my brains for science and my soul for security Now I’m a walking shadow of the fool I used to be I heard they held my funeral and there was no one there but me I’m gonna be your Elvis I’m gonna be your Steve McQueen I’m gonna be your terrorist I’m gonna be your Steve McQueen I’m gonna be the man you could not dream The man you could not dream The man you could not dream The man you could not dream The man you could not dream
  • Jesus stole my baby Jesus stole my girl He took her away for an hour every sunday And cut all of her beautiful curls She was always easy seven days of the week Now she's a bore and I've seen it before She thinks it gives her some kind of mystique Said that she just want's to save me Said you cant go on the way that you are She chased all my friends, hurts my brain till it bends Hides my cigarettes and steals my guitar And it's a long time since she was mine, Pretending I am fine Another simple boy on the telephone line And though she is living here with me I'm aching to be free She takes it all so god damn seriously Well I've always been in love with her treasure But she might as well be locked up in chains When I ask she says no and I'm feeling so low I'm bursting from my feet to my brains Now if i could only talk to this Jesus I'd tell him just how lonely I've been I'd ask him to send home my baby again So she can see what kinda state I've been in Jesus stole my baby So maybe I should steal his She used to be mine Now she's so dull and divine May not be nice but thats the way that it is And I'm lost here among the clowns Jesus men in gowns All sandals and out of tune guitars And she talks in terrified tones Of skeleton bones Screaming through a mangled microphone And it's a long time since she was mine, Pretending I am fine Another simple boy on the telephone line And though she is living here with me I'm aching to be free She takes it all so god damn seriously

  • Moonshine Moonshine I may be bleeding but I feel just fine Moonshine Moonshine I wish to God you would send me a sign My future's on its knees It don't do its best to please My crooked spine Moonshine Moonshine I got the troubles of this whole world combined Moonshine Moonshine I bet my whole life on this useless design And I don't see no place That I can show this shameful face Without fear of decline Never knowing Is the most evil feeling And every answer here Is none too appealing I'm just waiting in line Praying hard when it comes, it's divine Have I been blind, moonshine? Moonshine Moonshine I'm going up to Graceland where they built me a shrine Moonshine Moonshine I'll take all your problems if you'd only take mine And we'll go with the girls They got empty beds and curls We won't be easy to find, moonshine
  • She can't help it, the girl can't help it You can find her scratching around in the dark Just another candle chasing a spark You can find her screaming along with the ghosts Reminds you she's the one you needed the most And then you're out there on your own again No one believes you when you lie I still see all the old girls now and then Catching the moonlight as they cry She can't help it, the girl can't help it The wrong way round's the right way up when she calls You can laugh but it won't mean nothing at all Yes you can find her scratching away in her room Stumblin' round by the light of the stragglers moon And then you're out there digging holes again Six million people can't be wrong Some day you'll buy the perfect soul and then you can get back where you belong And then you're out there on your own again No one believes you when you lie I still see all the old girls now and then catching the moonlight when they cry
