No One Does It Better
Shoulda known that I was up to no good
Shoulda known that i was up to no good, that's right
My love
You were the one thing in my life
That I treated bad
Sometimes enough I made you cry
And I know the way I made you feel was wrong
(I left you sad and lonely)
The things I did, the words I said were much too strong
And I swear if you come back to me
I'll do things much differently
If you were here with me today
This is what you'd hear me say
We could've been so good together
Couldn't we give it just one more try?
I thought that we would last forever
But now you're gone and I think I know why
I guess I should have said I'm sorry
Maybe things wouldn't be this way
Heaven knows I love you baby
If you love me, baby come back to me
Shoulda known that I was up to no good
Come back to me
Shoulda known that I was up to no good
All the times that I made you cry-y
I'm sorry, don't you say goodbye
I wish I had the chance to love you more
(Love you, I love you, oh-oh)
But now you're gone I can't go on
I'm all alone
And I swear if you come back to me
I'll do things much differently
If you were here with me today
This is what you'd hear me say
We could've been so good together
Couldn't we give it just one more try?
I thought that we would last forever
But now you're gone and I think I know why
I guess I should have said I'm sorry
Maybe things wouldn't be this way
Heaven knows I love you baby
If you love me, baby come back to me
Shoulda known that I was up to no good
Tonight I'm only thinking of you
Feeling sorry for myself that's all I can do-o
Without you here I know I'd fall apart
Oh, so at night I dream I'm holding you in my arms
(At night I dream you're in my arms)
(Ooh baby baby, baby)
If you were here with me today
This is what you'd hear me say, baby [through next line]
We could've been so good together
Couldn't we give it just one more try?
(Couldn't we give it one more try?)
I thought that we would last forever
But now you're gone and I think I know why
Ah-ooo-oo-oo-oo-oo-hoo [through next two lines]
I guess I should have said I'm sorry
Maybe things wouldn't be this way
Heaven knows I love you baby
If you love me, baby come back to me
Couldn't we give it just one more try?
I thought that we would last forever
But now you're gone and I think I know why
I guess I should have said I'm sorry
Maybe things wouldn't be this way
Heaven knows I love you baby
If you love me, baby come back to me
Shoulda known that I was up to no good
Baby come back to me
Shoulda known that I was up to no good
Baby come back to me

When I get you all alone
I'm gonna move in nice and clo-ose
Ain't nobody gonna interupt my ga-ame
Oh no no
Ever since you been hangin' 'round
I've been tryin' to figure ou-out
What I can say to you to get some play
Yeah-ah
Girl can we do what we did last night again?
Baby you and I'd be better frie-ends
Don't you think it's time we went a bit further?
Oh yeah
Every night when we said goodbye
How can I help lookin' in your eyes
Wonderin' why, you and I
Haven't hit it
Can we get it on?
I'm kinda faded but I feel alright
I'm thinkin' about makin' my move tonight
I can't pretend that you're only my friend
When you're holdin' my body tight
'Cause I like the way you're makin' it move
I like the way you're makin' me wait
At the end of the night when I make up your mind
You'll be comin' on home with me
Yeah, yeah, yeah
Girl you know you got it
And you know I want it
I can't wait to take you home
(You know you got, and I)
I don't wanna be rude at all
I just wanna be where you go-o
Think what we could do alo-o-o-one, yeah-ah
Girl can we do what we did last night again?
Baby you and I'd be better frie-ends
Don't you think it's time we went a bit further?
Oh yeah
Every night when we said goodbye
How can I help lookin' in your eyes
Wonderin' why, you and I
Haven't hit it
Can we get it o-on?
I'm kinda faded but I feel alright
I'm thinking about makin' my move tonight
I can't pretend that you're only my friend
When you're holdin' my body tight
'Cause I like the way you're makin' it move
I like the way you're makin' me wait
At the end of the night when I make up your mind
You'll be comin' on home with me
[Rap by Thrust]
Uh, uh, when we first met yo that deal was stated
You stepped like my steeds, the way we compensated
Just another day, around the way
You and me up close with everything okay
'Cause I'm, not like the rest
inDecision with the best, Thrust from a full court press
Because they hated, "How's it goin'," "Hi"
Yo I'm faded
I'm kinda faded but I feel alright
I'm thinking about makin' my move tonight (move tonight)
I can't pretend that you're only my friend
When you're holdin' my body tight (oh yeah)
'Cause I like the way you're makin' it move
I like the way you're makin' me wait
At the end of the night when I make up your mind
You'll be comin' on home with me
Yeah, yeah, yeah
I'm kinda faded but I feel alright
I'm thinking about makin' my move tonight (move)
I can't pretend that you're only my friend
When you're holdin' my body tight (bo-body ti-ight)
'Cause I like the way you're makin' it move
I like the way you're makin' me wait (me wait)
At the end of the night when I make up your mind
You'll be comin' on home with me
Yeah, yeah, yeah
I'm kinda faded but I feel alright
[Through next two lines] (Come and make me feel alright I know
that you want me)
I'm thinking about makin' my move tonight
I can't pretend that you're only my friend
When you're holdin' my body tight
'Cause I like the way you're makin' it move (ooh)
I like the way you're makin' me wait (makin' me wait)
At the end of the night when I make up your mind
You'll be comin' on home with me
Yeah, yeah, yeah
Ever since you've come my way
Something deep inside me said
Nothing that I've ever seen
Could ever be compa-a-ared
Still I've seen it all before
But I have always wanted more
Than a momentary thrill
A casual love affai-ai-air
Got to get to know you better
(Baby I've got to know you now)
I envision us toge-ethe-er
Woah I'm feelin' you without even knowing you
No one else will ever do
So I've got to tell you, oh I'm
Feelin' you without even touching you
I saw you instantly I knew
That I have to make you mi-i-i-ine
Oh oh oh mm mm mm mm
Never thought I'd ever find
But then you stepped up in my mind
Just one look from you and then
My heart was blown awa-a-ay
You got me with your attitude
The confidence that you exude
I can tell your flavour would be
Oh so good to taste, yeah
Could it be we could get any closer?
(Baby I've got to know you now)
Wonder have you even noticed?
Yeah I'm feelin' you without even knowing you
No one else will ever do
Yeah I've got to tell you, oh I'm
Feelin' you without even touching you
I saw you instantly I knew
That I have to make you mine
Na na na na na na na na na na na na na
Oh-oh somethin' about you baby
Na na na na na na na na na na na na na
Yeah I'm feelin' you, feelin' you baby
Got to get to know you better
(Baby I've got to know you now)
I envision us toge-e-ether, oh oh
Oh I'm feelin' you without even knowing you
No one else will ever do
Yeah I've got to tell you that I'm
Feelin' you without even touching you
I saw you instantly I knew-ew-ew
Oh I knew it from the start yeah
Na na na na na na na na na na na na na
I can't let you go, let you go baby
Na na na na na na na na na na na na na
Let you go, let you go yeah-ah
But I'm feelin' you oh baby

You're unavoidable
Simply irrestible
And certainly you're kissable
But next to you I'm way too shy
And lose my back bone
Leave my feelings unknown
Play should've could've on my own
Then I'm left to wonder why-y
This is all so hard
Letting down my guard
It's all the same
It's you I blame
But maybe that's not right
I'll blame
Gravity
For always holding out on me
When I just want to run away
It trips me and I fall for you
Makes perfect sense to me
Lose responsibility
Every time I fail to see
How easy this could be
I can put the blame on gravity
You're undeniable
Truly unbelievable
And certainly achievable
If only I could speak my mind
But I deliberate
Simple things, I complicate
But then I think it best to wait
It happens to me all the time, yeah ah
This is all so hard
Letting down my guard
It's all the same
It's you I blame
But maybe that's not right
I'll blame
Gravity
For always holding out on me
When I just want to run away
It trips me and I fall for you
Makes perfect sense to me
Lose responsibility
Every time I fail to see
How easy this could be
I can put the blame on gravity, yeah
There is something I must confess
I was happy with loneliness, oh yeah
Weightless is so easy to be
Now I'm up in a different spin
Out of control and completely into you
So why put the blame on me
When I can put the blame on
Gravity
For always holding out on me
When I just want to run away
It trips me and I fall for you
Makes perfect sense to me
Lose responsibility
Every time I fail to see
How easy this could be
I can put the blame on
Gravity
For always holding out on me
When I just want to run away
It trips me and I fall for you
Makes perfect sense to me
Lose responsibility
Every time I fail to see
How easy this could be
I can put the blame on
Gravity
For always holding out on me
When I just want to run away
It trips me and I fall for you
Makes perfect sense to me
Lose responsibility
Every time I fail to see
How easy this could be
I can put the blame on gravity
Aah...
I know that you love me
Aah...
I'll be there when you need me
You are the one who stood by my side
When my so called friends tried to mess with my life and
They tried to bring my dream to an end
But when they try to knock me down I get up again, oh
Now they see me as a star on the screen
But they're not the same now as they used to be then
I don't know what they want from me
I don't care, ah ha, that's the way it's got to be yeah
I don't need anyone
To tell me I'm wrong, I know that you love me
I don't care what they say
You were there from the start
I'll be there when you need me
So why do they always have something to say?
I don't know, I guess they think they understand me
Why do they think they can treat me this way?
It's my life, they don't control me, no
You are the one who always believed
When I tried to be myself, they would laugh at me
But they don't understand the way that I feel
You were the only one, who ever knew me for real yeah
Now they see me as a star on the screen
But they're not the same now as they used to be then
I don't know what they want from me
I don't care, ah ha, that's the way it's got to be, yeah
I don't need anyone
To tell me I'm wrong, I know that you love me
I don't care what they say
You were there from the start
I'll be there when you need me
So why do they always have something to say?
I don't know, I guess they think they understand me
Why do they think they can treat me this way?
I don't wanna see them 'cause I can't believe them
They were not the ones who were there for me
When I needed them
Don't understand what they want from me
I don't care, ah ha, that's the way it's got to be, hey!
Hey come o-o-on [Through next line]
I don't need anyone
To tell me I'm wrong, I know that you love me
I don't care what they say
You were there from the start
I'll be there when you need me
(There when you need me)
I don't need anyone
To tell me I'm wrong, I know that you love me
(Know that you love me)
I don't care what they say
You were there from the start
I'll be there when you need me
So why do they always have something
to say
I don't know I guess they think they understand me
Why do they think they can treat me this way?

... and how can I believe one thing
you said?
When hearing the truth in you is so hard
The lies you held were easily read
How can I believe in love at all?
Close to me they seem to be
But the more I care the further I'd fall so
Next time
I won't care about no one
That's right
They can do it on their own
Next time
You wanna hurt somebody
Well it's too late I'm already gone
... and I could never walk three steps behind (I never follow)
The further you stood from me
To get to you the harder I'd try and now
I can only hope my love transcends
So the next time round when they bring me down
I won't be their fool; I couldn't do it all again no
Next Time
I won't care about no one
That's right
They can do it on their own
Next time you wanna hurt somebody
Well it's too late I"m already gone
I don't care about no one
That's right
They can do it on their own, uh huh
Next time you're gonna miss my love
Well it's too late I"m already gone
And then if you call me up
Just to say that you were sorry
I'd say that's not enough
Maybe I'd remind you
Next time
I don't care about no one
That's right
They can do it on their own
Next time you wanna hurt somebody
Well it's too late I"m already gone
I don't care about no one
That's right
They can do it on their own, uh huh
Next time
You're gonna miss my love
Well it's too late I'm already go-one
Next time
That's right

Doo doo doo doo ooh
Oh oh oh oh oh
I, want to know you
But your personality and mind
Are not the things I want to try
And I cannot control you
'Cause no matter how I try
Our conversations aren't defined
And I say
How does it feel?
When you know that I'm watching?
How does it feel?
When you know that I'm there?
Why do you think you can hide from your mistakes?
Whatever babe, whatever baby
I will see your face again
I followed you a lifetime baby
You could never hide from me
I close my eyes and fantasize
About you right in front of me
And when I find I'm satisfied
I wake up and I realize
That everything you've done to me
Was only in my mind
You are the one to make me better
You are the one who will never change
Sometimes I think you've read my letters
Maybe you already know my name
I want to see you, mm hmm
Not the fragments in my mind or the pages where you lie
Well I want to feel you
In ever corner of my bed
I sleep with you beneath my head
How does it feel?
When you know that I'm watching?
How does it feel?
When you know that I'm there?
Why do you think you can hide from your mistakes?
Whatever babe, whatever baby
I will see your face again
I followed you a lifetime baby
You could never hide from me
I close my eyes and fantasize
About you right in front of me
And when I find I'm satisfied
I wake up and I realize
That everything you've done to me
Was only in my mind
You are the one to make me better
You are the one who will never change
Sometimes I think you've read my letters
Maybe you already know my name
I followed you a lifetime baby
You could never hide from me
I close my eyes and fantasize
About you right in front of me
And when I find I'm satisfied
I wake up and I realize
That everything you've done to me
Was only in my mind
You are the one to make me better
You are the one who will never change
Sometimes I think you've read my letters
Maybe you already know my name
You are the one to make me better
You are the one who will never change
Sometimes I think you've read my letters
Maybe you already know my name
NOTE: The Indecision version of this
song has the same lyrics, and was originally titled "Ooh
It's Kinda Crazy (Plastic People)"
If you want my love
Help me heal the pain in my eyes
Ooh it's kinda crazy
I've been thinking maybe
Gotta get you out of my mi-i-ind
First you say you want me
Now your memories haunt me
Why don't you just give me a si-ign
I thought I had someone that
I could fall in love with
Someone who would treat me ri-i-i-ight yeah
So I tried to be so kind
I thought for sure I'd make you mine but something's
Weighing up on my mi-i-ind
Why don't you take my hand
And help me understand
'Cause I can't figure out what you're thinkin' about
Why don't you let me know
Don't wanna be alone
Goin' out of my mind
Waiting for the day you'll say you'll be mine
If you want my love
(Why don't you show me then)
Help me heal the pain in my eyes
(I know you want me now)
If you want my love
Why don't you tell me
'Cause I've had enough of
Plastic people wasting my time
Ooh it's kinda crazy
I've been thinking maybe
Gotta get you out of my mi-i-ind
First you say you want me
Now your memories haunt me
Why don't you just give me a si-ign
Thought I had
Someone that
I could really care for
Someone who won't waste my ti-ime
(Don't lead me on)
But now I find that you lie
You're always out with other guys
Is that your way of playing with my mind?
Yeah ah
Why don't you take my hand
And help me understand
'Cause I can't figure out
What you're thinkin' about
Why don't you let me know
Don't wanna be alone
Going out of my mind
Waiting for the day you'll say you'll be mine
If you want my love
(Why don't you show me then)
Help me heal the pain in my eyes
(I know you want me now)
If you want my love
Why don't you tell me
'Cause I've had enough of
Plastic people wasting my time
Ooh it's kinda crazy
I've been thinking maybe
Gotta get you out of my mi-i-ind
First you say you want me
Now your memories haunt me
Why don't you just give me a si-ign
Showed you all that I am
And I treated you well
Gave you half of my heart
But you tore it to hell
"Give me someone who won't lie
And won't cheat on me"
Baby up in my room
That's exactly what you asked of me baby
Baby if you want my love, oh yeah ah
If you want my love
Oh, yeah then why don't you just
Take my hand and help me understand
Going out of my mind
Waiting for the day you'll say you'll be mine
Baby if you want my love
I've had enough
If you want my love
I've had enough oh
Baby if you want my love
I've had enough
If you want my love
I've had enough
[Fading]
Ooh it's kinda crazy
(I've had enough)
Gotta get you out of my mi-i-ind
(I've had enough)
First you say you want me, yeah
(I've had enough)
Why don't you just give me a sign?
Back To Top
Stay forever, forever baby, ooh ooh
ooh ooh
I'm not the kind of guy who believes in wishful thinkin'
I don't like putting that much on the line
Ever since you came and took my heart away
I knew that everything would work out fine, oh yeah ah
I am not the kind of guy who thinks that I should own you
I don't think that's how love was meant to be, ah ah
Now that I've got you here
I don't ever want you to leave me baby
So I'm asking you to just promise me you'll stay
Stay with me forever, forever baby
How can love you if it's just for one day? Yeah,
Stay, stay with me forever, forever baby
'Cause I can love you
If you just promise me you'll
I'm not the kind of guy who moves into things too quickly
I like to play the game nice and slow-ow-ow-ow-ow-ow-ow
Ever since you came and knocked me off my feet
I know that I could never let you go-o-o-o
I am not the kind of guy who believes in a lovesick notion
But I think what is meant to be should be-e
If you should ever leave, I'll be lost without you
So I'm asking you to make a little promise to me
Stay with me forever, forever baby
How can love you if it's just for one day? Yeah,
Stay, stay with me forever, forever baby
'Cause I can love you
If you just promise me you'll
[Instrumental]
I am not the kind of guy who thinks that I should own you
I don't think that's how love was meant to be-e
Now that I've got you here
I don't ever want you to leave me baby
So I'm asking you would you just promise me you'll stay
Stay with me forever, forever baby
How can love you if it's just for one day? Yeah,
Stay, stay with me forever, forever baby
'Cause I can love you
If you just promise me you'll stay
Stay with me forever, forever baby
How can love you if it's just for one day? Yeah,
Stay, stay with me forever, forever baby
'Cause I can love you
If you just promise me you'll stay
Stay with me forever, forever baby
How can love you if it's just for one day? Yeah,
Stay, stay with me forever, forever baby
'Cause I can love you
If you just promise me you'll stay

I could scream stand up with a fist
But I write it down another enemy on my list
This job has cut my wrist
Things can't get done when you don't exist
You Politicians your lack of vision
Has made me something that I'm not
So fill your space and take your faith man
You don't know what you got
This ain't no way to make a livin'
I get no love from what I've given
And I can see I've got to give again oh no
I'm at the end and I've said it enough
I cannot give what you've already got no
Not this dance again the wheel just spins
This ain't no way to make a livin'
It's a fight to get to the top
When I get back soem punk sittin' in my spot
I don't stand against myself
But sometimes I wish I could be someone else
You're ordinary and stationery
Please don't take my life
I'm not religious your words are wicked
You don't know what it's like
This ain't no way to make a livin'
I get no love from what I've given
And I can see I've got to give again oh no
I'm at the end and I've said it enough
I cannot give what you've already got no
Not this dance again the wheel just spins
This ain't no way to make a livin'
I feel I've done all that I can
I fight the sheets to get out my bed
But you don't owe me anything no
You don't see what I've become
You can't believe in the things I've done
You don't want to start me up
You still don't see what you got
This ain't no way to make a livin'
I get no love from what I've given
And I can see I've got to give again oh no
I'm at the end and I've said it enough
I cannot give what you've already got no
Not this dance again the wheel just spins
This ain't no way to make a livin'

Don't Dance Close To Me
Kind of faded and I'm still alright
I ain't been touched in a long long time
Jumped in my car into this place I ran
Oh tonight I'm going to get what I can
Don't dance close to me
I'm warnin' ya babe I'm comin' out of my jeans
Stop this craziness
Or at the end of the night you're comin' out of that dress
If you're gonna get shy with me
D-D-Don't ya go givin' that eye to me
I'm not trying to make you grow old with me
I'm just takin' you home with me
Givin', takin', back-breakin' make my day
Cock that trigger baby blow me away
Hunt me down I want to hear you say
I'm comin' out I'm on the prowl and I'm after you
Don't dance close to me
I'm warnin' ya babe I'm comin' out of my jeans
Stop this craziness
Or at the end of the night you're comin' out of that dress
If you're gonna get shy with me
D-D-Don't ya go givin' that eye to me
I'm not trying to make you grow old with me
I'm just takin' you home with me
It's just the thought of your lips
And the way that you'd kiss
That makes me move move move
To the base of your hips and
When your body is pressed
Under the weight of my chest
And I'm touchin' you over with my fingertips
It's gonna be...
Green light hold tight baby wilder than dogs
Flesh fight scratch bite baby all night long
I'm going to play you like my favourite song
'Cause I'm comin' out I'm on the prowl and
I'm after you
Don't dance close to me
I'm warnin' ya babe I'm comin' out of my jeans
Stop this craziness
Or at the end of the night you're comin' out of that dress
If you're gonna get shy with me
D-D-Don't ya go givin' that eye to me
I'm not trying to make you grow old with me
I'm just takin' you home with me
Slow down pace yourself you better
Hold tight and brace yourself I said
Slow down pace yourself
I got a mirror on the ceiling you can face yourself
If you're gonna get shy with me
D-D-Don't ya go givin' that eye to me
I'm not trying to make you grow old with me
I'm just takin' you home with me
Don't dance close to me
I'm warnin' ya babe I'm comin' out of my jeans
Stop this craziness
Or at the end of the night you're comin' out of that dress
If you're gonna get shy with me
D-D-Don't ya go givin' that eye to me
I'm not trying to make you grow old with me
I'm just takin' you home with me
You hypnotize me, deeper than the deepest sea oh you hypnotize me
I guess, you hit me when my heads a mess, I can’t sleep cause you hypnotize me
It’s just like a dream, adrift in a daze.
Something's tryin' to get you but you can’t run away
Caught up in your stare locked down in your trance
I try to run your distance but my feet don’t dance
Something’s got me trippin' up my world
A black shadow fallen over me
Something’s got me thinkin' bout my girl
My girl you got a hold and I can’t break free
You hypnotize me, deeper than the deepest sea oh you hypnotize me
I guess, you hit me when my heads a mess, I can’t sleep cause you hypnotize me
The look on your face touchin' tongue to your lips
Pressed against your body puts the move in my hip
You remind me of a far off and foreign land
Wanna swim your ocean feel my feet in your sand
Something’s got me trippin' up my world
A black shadow fallen over me
Something’s got me thinkin' bout my girl
My girl you got a hold and I can’t break free
You hypnotize me, deeper than the deepest sea oh you hypnotize me
I guess, you hit me when my heads a mess, I can’t sleep cause you hypnotize me
Don’t you make me do it or put me through it you wouldn’t dare?
Baby you don’t play fair
You’re closing in my circle got me reachin' for air
I’m drownin' babe you don’t even care
You hypnotize me, deeper than the deepest sea oh you hypnotize me
I guess, you hit me when my heads a mess, I can't sleep cause you hypnotize
me
Back To Top
I won't leave you standing at the altar
I won't throw your clothes out on the street
And when you say that I don't give much
I've tried but it's just no use
There's nothing I can do
If you were cheating honey believe me
I wouldn't lose a wink of sleep
When you touch me I feel nothing
I don't miss you through the week
You don't need to hear me tell you
Another "it's not you it's me"
'Cause that's not true there's nothing wrong with me
It must be you
When you leave you'll leave me just the way you found me
I won't be in pieces on the floor
And if you tell me that we're through well
I wouldn't blame you at all
I'd've done the same thing but I'd just call
If you were cheating honey believe me
I wouldn't lose a wink of sleep
When you touch me I feel nothing
I don't miss you through the week
You don't need to hear me tell you
Another "it's not you it's me"
'Cause that's not true there's nothing wrong with me
It must be you
Give it a week give it a while
Give us a cheek give us a smile
When you've had the chance to think it over
You will see you'll do much better far from me
Well I'm just being humble
Your probably won't but who cares
You'll settle for anyone who's there
If you were cheating honey believe me
I wouldn't lose a wink of sleep
When you touch me I feel nothing
I don't miss you through the week
You don't need to hear me tell you
Another "it's not you it's me"

I'd rather kiss the walls
To have to say I'm sorry
'Cause even when I'm right I'm wrong
Don't deny you left while I was sleepin'
You put out my light went creepin'

Baby you don't know what it means to sacrifice
Baby you just want to believe that you're always right
So I'm leavin' must have been dreamin'
If I thought you believed in me at all
You don't even sing my songs you just hum along
You can't wait 'til they are done
Tell me how can I love someone
When I'd rather kiss the walls
You kissed me in the sky
To keep my arms around you
And let my love surround you
But you kept me low inside
You bled me dry
Took all the life left in me
Took all your love to give me
And you wrapped it up in lies
Baby you don't know what it means to sacrifice
Baby you just want to believe that you're always right
So I'm leavin' must have been dreamin'
If I thought you believed in me at all
You don't even sing my songs you just hum along
You can't wait 'til they are done
Tell me how can I love someone
When I'd rather kiss the walls
I'm wrong, you're right
And I'm leavin' you tonight
Yes you're right so I guess I'm wrong
Well you can be right here and all alone
So I'm leavin' must have been dreamin'
If I thought you believed in me at all
You don't even sing my songs you just hum along
You can't wait 'til they are done
Tell me how can I love someone
When I'd rather kiss the walls

So Strong
Say goodbye
You're never gonna see my heart this way
It's never gonna be like yesterday
When everything was so new
And the sunshine poured all over you
And lit your sleeping face
Something I wish I could erase
Now that everything has gone wrong
And still I'm trying to be so strong
I tried my best
Might as well have let that slide
What I had to give
Was never meant to be by your side
And I guess, well I knew,
But baby I still feel the sting
In my walls of steel
That now don't hold a thing, so baby
Say goodbye
You're never gonna see my heart this way
It's never gonna be like yesterday
When everything was so new
And the sunshine poured all over you
And lit your sleeping face
Something I wish I could erase
Now that everything has gone wrong
And still I'm trying to be so strong
I tried so hard
Hoping you'd believe in me
But I was such a fool
You just needed to be free
I wish you could have seen
Maybe I might have been right
From a point of view
In a different light, so baby
Say goodbye
You're never gonna see my heart this way
It's never gonna be like yesterday
When everything was so new
And the sunshine poured all over you
And lit your sleeping face
Something I wish I could erase
Now that everything has gone wrong
And still I'm trying to be so strong
Don't think I didn't get
The way that you feel
But I let my heart concede
That this might be
For real....
Say goodbye
You're never gonna see my heart this way
It's never gonna be like yesterday
When everything was so new
And the sunshine poured all over you
And lit your sleeping face
Something I wish I could erase
Now that everything has gone wrong
And still I'm trying to be so strong
If I didn't love you so madly
And if I didn't want you so badly
Maybe you could see who I am
And I wouldn't act such a fool
If I didn't love you so dearly
And if I didn't want you so near to me
Maybe I could show you my heart
And you'd fall in love with me too
And I don't know why I get tongue tied and twisted
When I'm with you
Whenever you're near me my head spins around
And I just don't know what to do
If I didn't love you so madly
And if I didn't want you so badly
Maybe you could see who I am
And I wouldn't act such a fool
And I don't know why I get tongue tied and twisted
When I'm with you
Whenever you're near me my head spins around
And I just don't know what to do
If I didn't love you so madly
And if I didn't want you so badly
Maybe you could see who I am
And I wouldn't act such a fool
If I didn't hold you so dearly
And if I didn't want you so near to me
Maybe I could show you my heart
And you'd fall in love with me too
Maybe you could see who I am
And you'd fall in love with me too

(Performed Live in Concert on
soulTour early 2001, Original by George Michael)
I won't let you down
I will not give you up
Gotta have some faith in the sound
It's the one good thing that I've got
I won't let you down
So please don't give me up
Because I would really, really love to stick around
Heaven knows I was just a young boy
Didn't know what I wanted to be
I was every little hungry schoolgirl's pride and joy
And I guess it was enough for me
To win the race? A prettier face!
Brand new clothes and a big fat place
On your rock and roll TV
But today the way I play the game is not the same
No way
Think I'm gonna get me some happy
I think there's something you should know
I think it's time I told you so
There's something deep inside of me
There's someone else I've got to be
Take back your picture in a frame
Take back your singing in the rain
I just hope you understand
Sometimes the clothes do not make the man
All we have to do now
Is take these lies and make them true somehow
All we have to see
Is that I don't belong to you
And you don't belong to me
Freedom
You've gotta give for what you take
Freedom
You've gotta give for what you take
Heaven knows we sure had some fun boy
What a kick just a buddy and me
We had every big shot good-time band on the run boy
We were living in a fantasy
We won the race
Got out of the place
I went back home got a brand new face
For the boys on MTV
But today the way I play the game has got to change
Oh yeah
Now I'm gonna get myself happy
I think there's something you should know
I think it's time I stopped the show
There's something deep inside of me
There's someone I forgot to be
Take back your picture in a frame
Don't think that I'll be back again
I just hope you understand
Sometimes the clothes do not make the man
All we have to do now
Is take these lies and make them true somehow
All we have to see
Is that I don't belong to you
And you don't belong to me
Freedom
You've gotta give for what you take
Freedom
You've gotta give for what you take
Well it looks like the road to heaven
But it feels like the road to hell
When I knew which side my bread was buttered
I took the knife as well
Posing for another picture
Everybody's got to sell
But when you shake your ass
They notice fast
And some mistakes were built to last
That's what you get
I say that's what you get
That's what you get for changing your mind
And after all this time
I just hope you understand
Sometimes the clothes
Do not make the man
I'll hold on to my freedom
May not be what you want from me
Just the way it's got to be
Lose the face now
I've got to live
Thanks to canadian soul
And everytime you walk in the
roo-oom
I get this strange feeling insi-i-i-ide
And everytime you casually ignore me, baby,
I know that I won't be deni-ied
'Cause I've got love in my
heart and I know what I must do,
It's a step beyond fascination, baby,
A place for me and you
And I'm takin' my time and I'm takin' my turn,
And it's given me something to learn about what should be-e
So set your heart free-ee-ee
'Cause
Girl, I wanna get with you,
I wanna be your baby
Girl, I wanna get with you,
All night, yeah ee yeah, all night
Girl, I wanna get with you,
I want you to be my baby
Girl, I wanna get with you-ou-ou
And everytime I try to get
the nerve to talk to you,
I just can't find the words to say-ay-ay-ay
But I will grow my backbone soon, you can count on it,
'Cause you know when there's a will, there's a way-ay
And I've been going along
with my instincts,
And they say the weather is fine
I already told you once that it
Doesn't take a genius to know that you're mine
And I won't play with superstition,
Love me, love me
Not what will it be-e
Just set your heart free-ee-ee
Because
Girl, I wanna get with you,
I wanna be your baby
Girl, I wanna get with you,
All night, yeah ee yeah, all night
Girl, I wanna get with you,
I want you to be my baby
Girl, I wanna get with you
[Rap by Trevor]:
Ooh ooh whatchya gonna do?
You're the kinda girl that I wanna get next to
You can be my lover and I can be your man,
Do ya get it now?
Do ya understand?
[Joined by Dave, still
rapping]:
Gonna make ya move 'n' gonna make you sing,
Come on pretty baby, gimme some of that good thing
A little bit of soul will make ya feel alright,
Makin' sweet love, baby, we'll get through the night

So this is Christmas
And what have you done
Another year over
And a new one just begun
And so this is Christmas
I hope you have fun
The near and the dear one
The old and the young
A very merry Christmas
And a happy New Year
Let's hope it's a good one
Without any fear
And so this is Christmas
For weak and for strong
For rich and the poor ones
The world is so wrong
And so happy Christmas
For black and for white
For yellow and red ones
Let's stop all the fight
A very merry Christmas
And a happy New Year
Let's hope it's a good one
Without any fear
And so this is Christmas
And what have we done
Another year over
A new one just begun
And so happy Christmas
We hope you have fun
The near and the dear one
The old and the young
A very merry Christmas
And a happy New Year
Let's hope it's a good one
Without any fear
War is over, if you want it
War is over now
[Repeat chorus and 'war is over' lines to fade]
Hungry
Like the Wolf
(Performed Live in Concert on various tours, Original by Duran
Duran)
Dark in the city, night is a wire
Steam in the subway, earth is a fire
Do-do do do, do do do, do do do, do do do, do do
Woman you want me, give me a sign
And catch my breathing even closer behind
Do-do do do, do do do, do do do, do do do, do do
In touch with the ground
I'm on the hunt I'm after you
Smell like I sound, I'm lost in a crowd
And I'm hungry like the wolf
Straddle the line, in discord and rhyme
I'm on the hunt I'm after you
Mouth is alive with juices like wine
And I'm hungry like the wolf
Stalked in the forest, too close to hide
I'll be upon you by the moonlight side
Do-do do do, do do do, do do do, do do do, do do
High blood drumming on our skin it's so tight
You feel my heart, I'm just a moment behind
Do-do do do, do do do, do do do, do do do, do do
In touch with the ground
I'm on the hunt I'm after you
Scent and a sound, I'm lost and I'm found
And I'm hungry like the wolf
Strut on a line, it's discord and rhyme
I howl and I whine I'm after you
Mouth is alive all running inside
And I'm hungry like the wolf
(Hungry like the wolf
Hungry like the wolf
Hungry like the wolf)
Burning the ground I break from the crowd
I'm on the hunt I'm after you
I smell like I sound, I'm lost and I'm found
And I'm hungry like the wolf
Strut on a line, it's discord and rhyme
I'm on the hunt I'm after you
Mouth is alive with juices like wine
And I'm hungry like the wolf
Burning the ground I break from the crowd
I'm on the hunt I'm after you
Scent and a sound, I'm lost and I'm found
And I'm hungry like the wolf
Strut on a line, it's discord and rhyme
I howl and I whine I'm after you
Mouth is alive all running inside
And I'm hungry like the wolf...

[NOTE: In concert on the Psykoblast tour (June 2001) as well as
on the two dates in December 2001, the line "Jimmy quit, and
Jody got married" is replaced with "Jimmy quit, and
Stephen's gettin' married" (referring to their guitarist and
drummer)]
I got my first real six-string
Bought it at the five and dime
Played it 'til my fingers bled
Was the summer of sixty-nine
Me and some guys from school
Had a band and we tried real hard
Jimmy quit, and Jody got married
I shoulda known, we'd never get far
Oh, when I look back now
That summer seemed to last forever
And if I had the choice
Yeah, I'd always wanna be there
Those were the best days of my life
Ain't no use in complainin'
When you got a job to do
Spent my evenin's down at the drive-in
And that's when I met you
Standin' on your mama's porch
You told me that you'd wait forever
Oh, and when you held my hand
I knew that it was now or never
Those were the best days of my life
Back in the summer of sixty nine
Man we were killin' time,
We were young and restless
We needed to unwind
I guess nothin' can last forever, forever, no!
And now the times are changin'
Look at everything that's come and gone
Sometimes when I play that old six-string
I think about you, wonder what went wrong
Standin' on your mama's porch
You told me that it'd last forever
Oh and when you held my hand
I knew that it was now or never
Those were the best days of my life
Back in the summer of sixty-nine
Back in the summer of sixty-nine
