Cuckoo 05:10
lyrics

From the edge of town Passed industrial shacks Through fly-tipped fields Down dogging tracks Can you hear my sound Carried on the breeze 'cause it's the time of year When I do as I please So if you're happy or you're sad come on and sing it If you're looking for a mate come on and sing it If you think you're going mad come on and sing it If you think you found god you can take your hook and sling it Cuckoo in the nest I'm getting fatter now Fatter that the rest Cuckoo in the nest oh what's the matter now I'm fatter that the rest Charlie said You should take a look And he wrote it all down In his silly little book There are things he said that I don't like Especially the bit he call me a parasite So if you're happy or you're sad come on and sing it If you're looking for a mate come on and sing it If you think you're going mad come on and sing it If you think you found god you can take your hook and sling it Cuckoo in the nest I'm getting fatter now I'm fatter that the rest I'm a cuckoo in the nest oh what's the matter now I'm fatter that the rest I come over the land I come over the sea I'm not a terrorist I'm not a refugee Over desert sands Over Boko Haram Atrocities From the hands of man Cuckoo in the nest fatter than the rest Cuckoo in the nest fatter than the rest Cuckoo in the nest fatter than the rest Cuckoo in the nest fatter than the rest Cuckoo in the nest fatter than the rest Cuckoo in the nest fatter than the rest Oh I'm a cuckoo in the nest and I'm getting fatter now Fatter than the rest oh what's the matter now A cuckoo in the nest I'm getting fatter now I'm fatter than the rest I come into your home of luxury I take all you own that you love so dearly And your idle threats and your spiralling debts You spent your whole life feathering your own nest

Son 04:31

Son you'll run too fast for me to stand by your side And how you shall do everything you want in your life You know without you I doubt you'd understand the feelings so proud You know if I could you know I would stay one step ahead of the crowd I got this feeling inside Keeps me feeling alive Oh my son Well at first you'll see everything's so beautiful In front of your eyes But how these things change to purely physical Well then you may see my Reason for shouting out so lyrical Line after line People may change but I'm not typical Do you have to ask why But son you'll come to be the man you want in your time And how you shall do everything you want in your prime You know that I'll prove that I'll do more than any one man can try Because without you I doubt you'd understand the need and the drive I got this feeling inside Keeps me feeling alive Oh my son Well at first you'll see everything's so beautiful In front of your eyes But how these things change to purely physical Well then you may see my Reason for shouting out so lyrical Line after line People may change but I'm not typical Do you have to ask why If you ask me Well I say eternally Oh that's how along I aim to be By your side or above you Well if you ask me Why do we act so responsibly Well take a look and you will see That the sky is above you Well if you ask me why 'cause I love you my son Well at first you'll see everything's so beautiful In front of your eyes But how these things change to purely physical Well then you may see my Reason for shouting out so lyrical Line after line People may change but I'm not typical Do you have to ask why But son you'll run too fast for me to stand by your side

Keep Rolling 04:45

All the words I've ever said And all the words I've never wanted to say All the nonsense in my head And all the common-sense that gets in the way Is anybody even listening Do these words make sense to you If the hairs upon your neck are bristling I give credit where credit's due And the words Come to life Leave the paper Hit the sky Touch your hearts Touched your mind Buckle-up For the ride Keep rolling all along Keep rolling all along Keep rolling your words are your life Keep rolling all along Keep rolling all along Keep rolling your words are your life I never meant to hurt you or anyone With my words or with my deeds It's so hard to remain indifferent When you're falling down upon your knees Well if that makes you feel uncomfortable You can turn around and walk away But I'll be standing right here in front of this firing line This crowd are my judge and jury And the words Come to life Turn to vapour Hypnotise Lift your heart Be inspired And buckle-up For the ride Keep rolling all along Keep rolling all along Keep rolling your words are your life Keep rolling all along Keep rolling all along Keep rolling your words are your life Keep rolling all along Keep rolling all along Keep rolling your words are your life Keep rolling all along Keep rolling on Keep rolling your words are your life Keep rolling Keep rolling Keep rolling all along Keep rolling Keep rolling Keep rolling all along All the words I've ever said And all the words I've never wanted to say

Pillbox oh pillbox Oh standing in the field box Watching the water Pillbox oh pillbox Oh standing in the field box Avoiding the slaughter The cows they go on a-grazing The dragonflies are all amazing Pillbox oh pillbox Oh standing in the field box I'm talking right to ya Pillbox oh pillbox Oh mentally ill box And I thought that I knew ya Well the swallows they go on a-swooping The riverboats are all polluting So why don't you tell me all that you can Tell me what it is that it takes to be a lover What it takes to be a man From the mud-flats of Essex To the source of the Bean You came up the river Like the salmon upstream And all that you really wanted Was to be loved and well respected Isn't that all that we all really want We all really need when we get past all this bitterness selfishness spitefulness and greed Don't have to tell you that You know it anyway But you don't listen To anything I say You got your problems You brought them on yourself And now all you want to do Is blame everybody else I feel quite sorry That you're in your position But then again you never took the time to listen Pillbox oh pillbox All concrete and steel box Your best days are behind you Pillbox oh pillbox Oh critically ill box There's no need to remind you You're waiting for action that never did come You fought for a freedom that's already gone In a world that keeps spinning around and around It's left you behind But an island's an island And you'll end up at the sea An island's an island with caravans and pylons and acts of piracy There's a ship sailing in from China With cheap goods that are all designer None of it's what you really want or your really need but you'll have it anyway It'll end up back in the sea Don't have to tell you that You know it anyway But you don't listen To anything I say You got your problems You brought them on yourself And now you wanted to Blame everybody else I feel quite sorry That you're in your position But then again you never took the time to listen

Loaded Gun 05:09

Well the last time I saw you You were on the run Running for cover Scared of everyone But I hear that you're back now And you're looking for fun And you're still shooting your mouth off Like a loaded gun You're like a loaded gun Bad news for everyone We're talking in whispers 'Cause you love all the fuss The trouble is brewing Yeah that's the trouble with us Relentless ambition Is your ammunition So keep shooting your mouth off Like a loaded gun And oh you're such a hard act to follow A bitter pill to swallow You're too far down the wrong road And no no no no You never knew which way to go With your head in the sand you couldn't know It was never meant to be so You're like a loaded gun Bad news for everyone A life spent on the run Sky-high to kingdom come Well I'm glad that I saw you 'Cause you were always the one The one who remembers Everything that we done And now it's all over The story has run You're still shooting your mouth off Like a loaded gun And oh you're such a hard act to follow A bitter pill to swallow You're too far down the wrong road And no no no no You never knew which way to go With your head in the sand you couldn't know It was never meant to be so Well I know These words have come to slow And we're already gone Oh nothing last so long When we were head to toe You couldn't let it show Ah you have to let it go Let it go You're like a loaded gun Bad news for everyone A life spent on the run Sky-high to kingdom come

Best Laid Plans 04:47
lyrics
buy track
He's a little man with big plans in his head He's so self conscious about the words he says Always needing more But he's getting less than he did before He's a leader who can be so easily led With an imagination that's not easily fed Some days he struggles just to get out of bed A leader who can be so easily led Struggling to get out of bed But each night he sits and dreams And stares at his computer screen And I hope he gets to where he's searching for But life can be so cruel It knows how to make you look a fool When all the best plans in your head They come to fruition when your dead When your dead dead dead Dead dead dead Johnny looks for parrots in the trees You know his mind ain't what it used to be He took too many blows to his head And now his future fills him full of dread But he is still a fighter in his head He's got a chip upon his shoulder It's getting worse as he gets older And I hope he gets to where he's searching for But life can be so cruel It knows how to make you look a fool When all the best plans in your head They come to fruition when your dead When your dead dead dead Dead dead dead Near familiar faces he drops his head Afraid that he's become like them instead Caught in a life he struggles to accept Nostalgic sighs are the common thread But the light in his mind has faded and fled Expectations in his head Can't believe he's here instead And I hope he gets to where he's searching for Life can be so cruel It knows how to make you look a fool When all the best plans in your head They come to fruition when your dead When your dead dead dead Dead dead dead Dead dead dead

Tiger 04:39
lyrics

Being chased by a tiger as I ran through the woods in a dream It was quite serene Me and my baby a pushchair and I'm sure you were there too But you were unseen And as we ran through the night Through the moon-dappled light Engraved in our hearts Insane from the start And the the tiger said You wanted To be here Inside my dream So I showed you The way through The evergreens We sat by the fire as the tiger looked on through the trees It was such a scene We sang circle-songs like the cat's got your tongue in the key of E Divine imagery And as we drank from the vine He looked on all the time For he knew and we knew No harm would he do And the the tiger said You wanted To be here Inside my dream So I showed you The way through The evergreens Eyes open Wide open Why can't you see You're killing me Deep under Oh slumber Where have you been You wanted To be here Inside my dream So I showed you The way through The evergreens Being chased by a tiger as I ran through the woods in a dream

It's raining sand But I'm in a new band And I'm watching the world on my phone It's hard to speak But I'm losing no sleep On a train heading nowhere alone Fully aware That I'm losing my hair But the smile on my face says it all The sand it pours through the cracks in my paws But I'm standing up tall with my back to wall I'm sitting on the fence But in my defence I'm not doing you harm I have opinions But so do millions Of others twisting your arm Not gonna let myself get wrapped in their lies I've got a bulletproof water-tight alibi Wolf's at the door But he's just trying to score From a man in a suit on the floor The money spins on a knife-edge so thin That there's blood on the hands of the poor I won't get caught up in all that goes on But there's plenty of others who will I guess we're all only two steps away From a headline that says he was dying to kill I'm sitting on the fence But in my defence I'm not doing you harm I have opinions But so do millions Of others twisting your arm Not gonna let myself get wrapped in their lies I've got a bulletproof water-tight alibi I dip my toe But the water's so deep That I can't make no sense of it all The air is thick with the smell of deceit That I can't find my way down the hall How many times must I rewrite these rhymes So I don't take you down the wrong path It's still raining sand but I'm in a new band And I laugh and I cry yeah cry as I laugh I'm sitting on the fence But in my defence I'm not doing you harm I have opinions But so do millions Of others twisting your arm Not gonna let myself get wrapped in their lies I've got a step by step user guide on how to survive I've got a Teflon-coated suit with a built in desire I've got an electric fence around my head at strategic times I've got a bulletproof water-tight alibi A L I B I A L I B I A L I B I A L I B I A L I B I A L I B I A L I B I A L I B I

Sorry 04:00

You know as love grows older Sometimes you're gonna get the cold-shoulder I wouldn't have it any other way Because when I met you I knew that you were here to stay So why don't you say sorry When you know you're wrong Why don't I shut my mouth So we can get along Why can't you say sorry Even though you know you're wrong It's not a sign of weakness It's a sign that you are strong Why can't I just shut my mouth And learn to let it go No cause for an argument Or any kind of freak show 'cause we should love each other very much There's nothing that I like more than your smell and taste and touch It's easy to be cynical and think the worst 'cause it's a man-thing my sweet baby And you know you've got the curse So why can't you say sorry even though you know you're wrong Why can't I just shut my mouth and learn to get along I really must apologise I know I can make a mess I don't mean to upset you Causing unnecessary distress I'm gonna try and mend my ways It's no word of a lie Sometimes my sweet baby I just gotta be satisfied I loved every minute that we've been together Can't always be blue skies Sometimes we're in for stormy weather So why don't you come over here and give me a hug 'cause it's a man-thing my sweet baby And you know you've got the bug So why can't you say sorry even though you know you're wrong Why can't I just shut my mouth and learn to get along I loved every minute that we've been together Can't always be blue skies Sometimes we're in for stormy weather So why don't you come over here and give me a hug 'cause it's a man-thing my sweet baby And you know you've got the bug So why can't you say sorry even though you know you're wrong Why can't I just shut my mouth and learn to get along You know as love it grows older Sometimes you're gonna get the cold-shoulder

Well you can take tomorrow But yesterday is mine You can take the rain clouds I've got sunshine You can make that sun shine And wrap it in your hair 'cause you can make the words rhyme Almost anywhere Even when the sun ain't shining You can find the silver-lining You have got such perfect timing You'll beat them anywhere 'cause even when the birds fly south you'll Hear the words escape your mouth you'll Beat it in and beat it out You'll heal their hearts and minds Hearts and minds And when you get back home again You can see it in their eyes Even in the grown men you despise But you can't take it from them no No matter how hard you try No you can't shake it from them You know why 'cause even when the sun ain't shining You can find the silver-lining You have got such perfect timing You'll beat them anywhere And even as the birds fly south you'll Hear the words escape your mouth you'll Beat it in and beat it out You'll heal their hearts and minds Hearts and minds

Behind the glass I see you You make no sound But you're running and running You're running running around You're running and running Running and running like a A hamster in its wheel You're spinning round and round Like a hamster in its wheel You're spinning round and round But you never see the sun And you never touch the ground Don't you know there's a war a-coming 'cause they've told her so And they've got their teeth into her And are never letting go Well I told her not to worry But they said that she must pray Or she will suffer the consequences upon the judgement day Is that any way to teach a child Three hugs a day No more are to be allowed In a crowd of people I see you Pushing your weight around With your headphones on And your eyes to the ground You're pushing and shoving Pushing and shoving Oh on your bike with little wheels Riding into town On a bike with little wheels You're riding into town But you never see the sun You never touch the ground Don't you know there's a war a-coming 'cause they've told her so And they've got their teeth into her And are never letting go Well I told her not to worry But they said that she must pray Or she will suffer the consequences upon the judgement day Is that any way to teach a child Three hugs a day No more are to be allowed
