Catch a boat to england, baby, Maybe to spain, Wherever i have gone, Wherever i've been and gone, Wherever i have gone The blues are all the same.
Send out for whisky, baby, Send out for gin, Me and room service, honey, Me and room service, babe, Me and room service Well, we're living a life of sin
When i'm not drinking, baby, You are on my mind, When i'm not sleeping, honey, When i ain't sleeping, mama, When i'm not sleeping Well you know you'll find me crying.
Try another city, baby, Another town, Wherever i have gone, Wherever i've been and gone, Wherever i have gone The blues come following down.
Living is a gamble, baby, Loving's much the same, Wherever i have played, Wherever i throw them dice, Wherever i have played The blues have run the game.
Maybe tomorrow, honey, Someplace down the line, I'll wake up older, So much older, mama, Wake up older And i'll just stop all my trying.
Catch a boat to england, baby, Maybe to spain, Wherever i have gone, Wherever i've been and gone, Wherever i have gone The blues are all the same.

From album Squirrel and G-Man Twenty Four Hour Party People Plastic Face Carnt Smile (White Out) in 1987
How old are you? Are you old enough? Should you be in here watching that? And how old are you? Are you owning up? Should you be in here with?
Twenty four hour party people plastic face 'carn't' smile the white out With the twenty four hour party people plastic face 'carn't' smile the white out
You cannot beat `em So why don't you join in? You cannot beat `em So why don't you join in with?
Twenty four hour party people plastic face 'carn't' smile the white out With the twenty four hour party people plastic face 'carn't' smile the white out
I can see you through the door. You been chewing bread and water. And there's a grudge on you - you know not ought not to have. You've been running around the racetrack You've been running around the racetrack Put that mother to bed to bed Put that mother to bed
With the twenty four hour party people plastic face 'carn't' smile a white out Cos' I have to wait for you to conduct. Press the pause of the self destruct. With the twenty four hour party people plastic face 'carn't' smile the white out With the twenty four hour party people ...
Now better you're the white out ...
I need full-time I don't need part-time I need 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7 3, 6, 5 all the time I need 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7 third time I don't need a part-time I need a 3, 6, 5
Oh - No days off ...
Twenty four hour party people plastic face 'carn't' smile the white out ... I need 1, 2, 3, 4,5,6,7 3, 6, 5 all the time I need 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7 third time I don't need a part-time I need a 3, 6, 5
Now that it's time Now that the hour hand has landed at the end Now that it's real Now that the dreams have given all they had to lend I want to know do I stay or do I go And maybe try another time And do I really have a hand in my forgetting ?
Now that I've tried Now that I've finally found that this is not the way, Now that I turn Now that I feel it's time to spend the night away I want to know do I stay or do I go And maybe finally split the rhyme And do I really understand the undernetting ?
Yes and the morning has me Looking in your eyes And seeing mine warning me To read the signs carefully.
Now that it's light Now that the candle's falling smaller in my mind Now that it's here Now that I'm almost not so very far behind I want to know do I stay or do I go And maybe follow another sign And do I really have a song that I can ride on ?
Now that I can Now that it's easy, ever easy all around. Now that I'm here Now that I'm falling to the sunlights and a song I want to know do I stay or do I go And do I have to do just one And can I choose again if I should lose the reason ?
Yes, and the morning Has me looking in your eyes And seeing mine warning me To read the signs more carefully.
Now that I smile, Now that I'm laughing even deeper inside. Now that I see, Now that I finally found the one thing I denied It's now I know do I stay or do I go And it is finally I decide That I'll be leaving In the fairest of the seasons.
Qué puedo hacer? si después de tanto tiempo no te dejo de querer y si después de todo el tiempo que ha pasado, si nos vemos no sé lo que hacer.
He pasado por tu casa veinte veces y siempre voy al Amador por si apareces, pero nunca más, pero nunca, nunca más, estoy harto de esperar, esto es más de lo que puedo soportar.
Y una vez más he intentado convencerte pero todo sigue igual que todos estos años. Y una vez más de que me sirve intentarlo, ni tan siquiera me vas a escuchar, estoy equivocado.
He pasado por tu casa veinte veces y siempre voy al Amador por si apareces pero nunca más, pero nunca, nunca más, estoy harto de esperar. Estoy harto de intentarlo, estoy cansado de seguir igual, tiene que cambiar.
No voy a entrar a este sitio, para no encontrarme contigo.
He pasado por tu casa veinte veces y siempre voy al Amador por si apareces, pero nunca más, pero nunca, nunca más, estoy harto de esperar.

I need love, love To ease my mind I need to find, find someone to call mine But mama said
You can't hurry love No, you just have to wait She said love don't come easy It's a game of give and take
You can't hurry love No, you just have to wait You got to trust, give it time No matter how long it takes
But how many heartaches Must I stand before I find a love To let me live again Right now the only thing That keeps me hangin' on When I feel my strength, yeah It's almost gone I remember mama said:
You can't hurry love No, you just have to wait She said love don't come easy It's a game of give and take
How long must I wait How much more can I take Before loneliness will cause my heart Heart to break?
No I can't bear to live my life alone I grow impatient for a love to call my own But when I feel that I, I can't go on These precious words keeps me hangin' on I remember mama said:
You can't hurry love No, you just have to wait She said love don't come easy It's a game of give and take
You can't hurry love No, you just have to wait She said trust, give it time No matter how long it takes
Gotta wait!
No, love, love, don't come easy But I keep on waiting Anticipating for that soft voice To talk to me at night For some tender arms To hold me tight I keep waiting I keep on waiting But it ain't easy It ain't easy But mama said:
You can't hurry love No, you just have to wait She said to trust, give it time No matter how long it takes
You can't hurry love No, you just have to wait She said love don't come easy It's a game of give and take

Moon's a common scene around my town Here where everyone is painted brown And if we feel that's not the way Let's go paint everybody gray Yeah, gray, yeah
From the album Tous les garçons et les filles in 1962
Tous les garcons et les filles de mon age Se promenent dans la rue deux par deux Tous les garcons et les filles de mon age Savent bien ce que c'est d'etre heureux Et les yeux dans les yeux Et la main dans la main Ils s'en vont amoureux Sans peur du lendemain Oui mais moi je vais seule Dans la rue l'ame en peine Oui mais moi je vais seule Car personne ne m'aime Mes jours comme mes nuits Sont en tous points pareils Sans joies et pleins d'ennuis Personne ne murmure je t'aime a mon oreille
Tous les garcons et les filles de mon age Font ensemble des projets d'avenir Tous les garcons et les filles de mon age Savent bien ce que aimer veut dire Et les yeux dans les yeux Et la main dans la main Ils s'en vont amoureux Sans peur du lendemain Oui mais moi je vais seule Dans la rue l'ame en peine Oui mais moi je vais seule Car personne ne m'aime Mes jours comme mes nuits Sont en tous points pareils Sans joies et pleins d'ennuis Oh quand pour moi brillera le soleil
Comme les garcons et les filles de mon age J'connaitrais bientot ce qu'est l'amour Comme les garcons et les filles de mon age Je me demande quand viendra le jour Ou les yeux dans les yeux Ou la main dans la main J'aurais le coeur heureux Sans peur du lendemain Le jour ou je n'aurais plus du tout L'ame en peine Le jour ou moi aussi J'aurais quelqu'un qui m'aime

I hurt myself today To see if I still feel I focus on the pain The only thing that's real The needle tears a hole The old familiar sting Try to kill it all away But I remember everything
What have I become? My sweetest friend Everyone I know Goes away in the end You could have it all My empire of dirt I will let you down I will make you hurt
I wear this crown of shit Upon my liar's chair Full of broken thoughts I cannot repair Beneath the stains of time The feelings disappear You are someone else I am still right here
What have I become? My sweetest friend Everyone I know Goes away in the end
You could have it all My empire of dirt I will let you down I will make you hurt If I could start again A million miles away I would keep myself I would find a way
It's the cruelest joke to play, I'm so high I run in place. Only a line we separate, so................
Chorus: Keep on playin' our favorite song, turn it up, while you're gone. It's all I've got when you're in my head, and you're in my head, so I need it.
You're the only thing I've got, that I can't seem to get enough. We collide for one embrace, so..............
Rumour spreadin a-round in that texas town bout that shack outside la grange And you know what Im talkin about. Just let me know if you wanna go To that home out on the range. They gotta lotta nice girls.
Have mercy. A haw, haw, haw, haw, a haw. A haw, haw, haw.
Well, I hear its fine if you got the time And the ten to get yourself in. A hmm, hmm. And I hear its tight most evry night, But now I might be mistaken. Hmm, hmm, hmm, hmm.
From the album Life's a Riot with Spy Vs Spy in 1983
I was twenty one years when I wrote this song Im twenty two now, but I wont be for long People ask when will you grow up to be a man But all the girls I loved at school Are already pushing prams
I loved you then as I love you still Tho I put you on a pedestal, They put you on the pill I dont feel bad about letting you go I just feel sad about letting you know
I dont want to change the world Im not looking for a new england Im just looking for another girl I dont want to change the world Im not looking for a new england Im just looking for another girl
I loved the words you wrote to me But that was bloody yesterday I cant survive on what you send Every time you need a friend
I saw two shooting stars last night I wished on them but they were only satellites Is it wrong to wish on space hardware I wish, I wish, I wish youd care
I dont want to change the world Im not looking for a new england Im just looking for another girl
Lyin', cheatin', hurtin, that's all you seem to do Messin' around, every guy in town Puttin' me down for thinkin' of someone new Always the same, playin' your game Drive me insane, trouble's gonna come to you One of these days, and it won't be long You'll look for me, but, baby, I'll be gone
This is all I gotta say to ya, woman Your time is gonna come, your time is gonna come Your time is gonna come, your time is gonna come
Made up my mind, break you this time Won't be so kind, it's my turn to cry Do what you want, I won't take the brunt It's fadin' away, can't feel you anymore Don't care what you say 'cause I'm goin' away to stay Gonna make you pay for that great big hole in my heart People talkin' all around Watch out, woman, no longer is the joke gonna be on my heart
You been bad to me, woman, but it's comin' back home to you Your time is gonna come, your time is gonna come Your time is gonna come, your time is gonna come Your time is gonna come, 'bye, 'bye-'bye, baby Your time is gonna come, right now, right now Your time is gonna come, believe me, my girl Your time is gonna come, oh, oh, oh, oh-oh Your time is gonna come, nah-nah, nah-nah, nah-nah Your time is gonna come, I'm not likely to wait for ya Your time is gonna come, goodbye, baby Your time
Oh well uh you might think Im crazy To hang around with you Or maybe you think Im lucky To have somethin to do But I think that youre wild Inside me is some child
You might think Im foolish Or maybe its untrue (you might think Im crazy) You might think Im crazy (all I want is you) But all I want is you
You might think its hysterical But I know when youre weak You think youre in the movies And everythings so deep But I think that youre wild When you flash that fragile smile
You might think its foolish What ya put me through (you might think Im crazy) You might think Im crazy (all I want is you) All I want is you
And it was hard so hard to take Theres no escape without a scrape But you kept it going till the sun fell down You kept it going
Oh well uh you might think Im delirious The way I run you down But somewhere sometimes When youre curious Ill be back around Oh I think that youre wild And so-o uniquely styled
You might think its foolish This chancy rendezvous (you might think Im crazy ) You might think Im crazy (all I want is you) All I want is you-a-oo All I want is you (all I want is you) All I want is you
Shes got me dizzy, she sees me through to the end Shes got me in her hands and theres no use in pretending Christine sixteen, christine sixteen
She drives me crazy, I want to give her all Ive got And shes hot every day and night, there is no doubt about it
Christine sixteen, christine sixteen
I dont usually say things like this to girls your age, but when I saw you Coming out of the school that day, that day I knew, I knew, Ive got to have You, Ive got to have you.
Shes been around, but shes young and clean Ive got to have her, cant live without her, whoo no Christine sixteen, christine sixteen
Street's like a jungle So call the police Following the herd Down to Greece On holiday Love in the 90's Is paranoid On sunny beaches Take your chances looking for
[Chorus] GIRLS WHO ARE BOYS WHO LIKE BOYS TO BE GIRLS WHO DO BOYS LIKE THEY'RE GIRLS WHO DO GIRLS LIKE THEY'RE BOYS ALWAYS SHOULD BE SOMEONE YOU REALLY LOVE
Avoiding all work Because there's none available Like battery thinkers Count your thoughts on 1 2 3 4 5 fingers Nothing is wasted Only reproduced Get nasty blisters Du bist sehr schon But we haven't been introduced
I've got a street walkin' woman, she stays tall an twisted all the time I've got a street walkin' woman, she stays tall an twisted all the time She goes to bed with a fifth of whiskey an she wakes up with a jug a-wine She leaves home early in the mo'nin', then she don't come back until the sun's goin' down She leaves home in the mo'nin', an' she don't come back until the sun is goin' down She's always got her whiskey up to her mouth, and her face full of ugly frown I work hard everyday, try to make ends meet I work hard everyday an try to make ends meet All that woman wants to do, is keep her big feet in the street I love my street walkin' woman, she walks the avenue up and down I love my street walkin' woman, she walks the avenue up and down Sometime I wish she would start ta walkin', an' keep on walkin' outta town
Sit around and watch the tube,but nothing's on Change the channels for an hour or two Twiddle my thumbs just for a bit I'm sick of all the same old shit In a house with unlocked doors And I'm fucking lazy
Bite my lip and close my eyes Take me away to paradise I'm so damn bored I'm going BLIND!!! And I smell like shit
Peel me off this velcro seat and get me moving I sure as hell can't do it by myself I'm feeling like a DOG IN HEAT Barred indoors from the summer street I locked the door to MY OWN CELL And I lost the key
Bite my lip and close my eyes Take me away to paradise I'm so damn bored I'm going BLIND!!! And I smell like shit
I GOT NO MOTIVATION WHERE IS MY MOTIVATION NO TIME FOR THE MOTIVATION SMOKING MY INSPIRATION
Sit around and watch the phone,but no one's calling Call me pathetic,call me WHAT YOU WILL My mother says to get a job But she don't like the one SHE'S got When masturbation's lost its fun You're fucking lazy
Bite my lip and close my eyes Take me away to paradise I'm so damn BORED I'm going blind And loneliness has to suffice Bite my lip and close my eyes I was slipping away to paradise Some say,"Quit or I'll go BLIND." But it's just a myth
From the album The Number of the Beast, Live After Death in 1982
White man came across the sea He brought us pain and misery He killed our tribes, he killed our creed He took our game for his own need
We fought him hard we fought him well Out on the plains we gave him hell But many came too much for cree Oh will we ever be set free?
Riding through dustclouds and barren wastes Galloping hard on the plains Chasing the redskins back to their holes Fighting them at their own game Murder for freedom a stab in the back Women and children and cowards attack
Run to the hills run for your lives Run to the hills run for your lives
Soldier blue on the barren wastes Hunting and killing their game Raping the women and wasting the men The only good indians are tame Selling them whisky and taking their gold Enslaving the young and destroying the old
Run to the hills run for your lives (repeat to end)
Monday morning feels so bad, Ev'rybody seems to nag me Coming tuesday I feel better, Even my old man looks good, Wednesday just don't go, Thursday goes too slow, I've got Friday on my mind
Chorus
Gonna have fun in the city, Be with my girl she's so pretty, She looks fine tonight, She is out of sight to me, Tonight....I spend my bread, Tonight...I lose my head, Tonight...I got to get tonight Monday I have Friday on my mind.
Do the five day drag once more, Know of nothing else that bugs me More than working for the rich man, Hey I'll change that scene one day, Today I might be mad, Tomorrow I'll be glad, I've got Friday on my mind,
Everybody knows that the dice are loaded Everybody rolls with their fingers crossed Everybody knows that the war is over Everybody knows the good guys lost Everybody knows the fight was fixed The poor stay poor, the rich get rich Thats how it goes Everybody knows
Everybody knows that the boat is leaking Everybody knows that the captain lied Everybody got this broken feeling Like their father or their dog just died
Everybody talking to their pockets Everybody wants a box of chocolates And a long stem rose Everybody knows
Everybody knows that you love me baby Everybody knows that you really do Everybody knows that youve been faithful Ah give or take a night or two Everybody knows youve been discreet But there were so many people you just had to meet Without your clothes And everybody knows
Everybody knows, everybody knows Thats how it goes Everybody knows
Everybody knows, everybody knows Thats how it goes Everybody knows
And everybody knows that its now or never Everybody knows that its me or you And everybody knows that you live forever Ah when youve done a line or two Everybody knows the deal is rotten Old black joes still pickin cotton For your ribbons and bows And everybody knows
And everybody knows that the plague is coming Everybody knows that its moving fast Everybody knows that the naked man and woman Are just a shining artifact of the past Everybody knows the scene is dead But theres gonna be a meter on your bed That will disclose What everybody knows
And everybody knows that youre in trouble Everybody knows what youve been through From the bloody cross on top of calvary To the beach of malibu Everybody knows its coming apart Take one last look at this sacred heart Before it blows And everybody knows
Everybody knows, everybody knows Thats how it goes Everybody knows
Oh everybody knows, everybody knows Thats how it goes Everybody knows
Riders on the storm Riders on the storm Into this house were born Into this world were thrown Like a dog without a bone An actor out on loan Riders on the storm
Theres a killer on the road His brain is squirmin like a toad Take a long holiday Let your children play If ya give this man a ride Sweet memory will die Killer on the road, yeah
Girl ya gotta love your man Girl ya gotta love your man Take him by the hand Make him understand The world on you depends Our life will never end Gotta love your man, yeah
Wow!
Riders on the storm Riders on the storm Into this house were born Into this world were thrown Like a dog without a bone An actor out alone Riders on the storm
Riders on the storm Riders on the storm Riders on the storm Riders on the storm Riders on the storm
Funny how I find myself in love with you If I could buy my reasoning I'd pay to lose
One half won't do
I've asked myself How much do you commit yourself?
It's my life Don't you forget It's my life It never ends (It never ends)
Funny how I blind myself I never knew If I was sometimes played upon Afraid to lose
I'd tell myself what good you do Convince myself
It's my life Don't you forget It's my life It never ends (It never ends)
(Instrumental)
I've asked myself How much do you commit yourself?
It's my life Don't you forget Caught in the crowd it never ends It's my life Don't you forget Caught in the crowd it never ends It's my life Don't you forget Caught in the crowd it never ends
From the album Once Upon a Time: The Singles and The Scream (1978)
Harmful elements in the air Symbols clashing everywhere Reaps the fields of rice and reeds While the population feeds Junk floats on polluted water An old custom to sell your daughter Would you like number 23? Leave your yens on the counter please Hong kong garden
Tourists swarm to see your face Confuscius has a puzzling grace Disoriented you enter in Unleashing scent of wild jasmine
Slanted eyes meet a new sunrise A race of bodies small in size Chicken chow mein and chop suey Hong kong garden takeaway Hong kong garden
Well, I'm a'gonna raise a fuss, An' I'm a'gonna raise a holler. I've been working all summer Just to try and earn a dollar. Well I went to the boss Said I had a date My boss said "No dice, son, you gotta work late"
Sometimes I wonder what I'm a'gonna do There ain't no cure for the summertime blues
Well my mom 'n' poppa told me "Son you gotta earn some money, If you want to use the car To go riding next Sunday."
Well I didn't go to work I told the boss I was sick "Now you can't use the car 'cause you didn't work a lick."
Sometimes I wonder what I'm a'gonna do Cause there ain't no cure for the summertime blues.
Gonna take two weeks Gonna have a fine vacation Gonna take my problems To the United Nations
Well I went to my congressman He said, quote: "I'd like to help you son, But you're too young to vote."
Sometimes I wonder what I'm a'gonna do Cause there ain't no cure for the summertime blues.

Well, I keep on thinkin bout you, sister golden hair surprise And I just cant live without you; cant you see it in my eyes? I been one poor correspondent, and I been too, too hard to find But it doesnt mean you aint been on my mind
Will you meet me in the middle, will you meet me in the air? Will you love me just a little, just enough to show you care? Well I tried to fake it, I dont mind sayin, I just cant make it
Well, I keep on thinkin bout you, sister golden hair surprise And I just cant live without you; cant you see it in my eyes? Now I been one poor correspondent, and I been too, too hard to find But it doesnt mean you aint been on my mind
