I'D LIKE TO KNOW
I'd like to wake up on a Saturday
Say hello you
(la la la la la-la)
A cup of coffee and I smoke a cigarette or two
(la la la la la-la)
I've never had it so good, so long, so long
But now I've got it, it could be like before
(la la la la la-la)
I like to run around with everyone, you know its true
(la la la la la-la)
Driving down the street I'm always looking for a better view
(la la la la la-la)
I'd like to know where all the strange ones go
I'd like to go where all the strange ones go
I'd like to know what all the strange ones know
I'm gonna go where all the strange ones go
(Here I go)
I'd like to wake up in the middle of a dream with you
(la la la la la-la)
Yeah, I'm going up and down, I'm always looking for a better view
(la la la la la-la)
I'd like to know where all the strange ones go
I'd like to go where all the strange ones go
I'd like to know what all the strange ones know
I'm gonna go where all the strange ones go
Ooh... la la la la la la, la, la, la, la, la...
I'd like to know where all the strange ones go
I'd like to go where all the strange ones go
I'd like to know where all the strange ones know
I'm gonna go where all the strange ones go
CAUGHT BY THE FUZZ
Caught by the fuzz
Well I was, still on a buzz
In the back of the van
With my head in my hands
Just like a bad dream
I was, only fifteen
If only my brother could be here now
He'd get me out and sort me out alright
I know I should have stayed at home tonight
Locked in a cell
Feeling un-well
I talked to a man
He said, It's better to tell
'Who sold you the blow?'
'Well it was no-one I know'
If only you'd tell us, we'd let you go
We'll make it hard for you my son, so tell us what you know
We'll make you wish you'd stayed at home tonight
(Ooh... wah ooh... wah ooh...)
Here comes my mum
Well she, she knows what I've done
'Just tell them the truth
You know where it's from
You've blackened our name
Well you, you should be ashamed
If only your father could see you now
He'd break down, and he'd throw you out for sure
I never should have let you out tonight'
(Tonight) tonight (tonight) tonight (tonight) tonight
(Tonight) tonight (tonight)
MANSIZED ROOSTER
Wait a minute now, you just can't run away
You've got no money and you've got no place to stay
Things are bad, but there's always another way
How would you know, if you've never ever saw me?
Oh no, when I look at you, I see
Why you lookin' so crazy?
Why you lookin' so lonely, for love?
What do you wanna be now?
Why you lookin' so crazy?
Why you lookin' so lonely, for love?
What do you wanna see now?
Wait a minute, it's all wrong
Wait a minute, it's all, gone, wrong
(Rooster!)
Wait a minute now, you can't just hide away
You've got no money and you've got no face to save
You think it's bad, but there's always another way
How would you know, if you've never ever saw me?
Oh no, when I look at you, I see
Why you lookin' so crazy?
Why you lookin' so lonely, for love?
What do you wanna be now?
Why you lookin' so crazy?
Why you lookin' so lonely, for love?
Where do you wanna be now (oh yeah)
What do you wanna see? (oh yeah)
What do you wanna be now? (oh yeah)
What do you wanna feel? (oh yeah)
(Oh... yeah)
ALRIGHT
We are young, we run green
Keep our teeth, nice and clean
See our friends, see the sights, feel alright
We wake up, we go out, smoke a fag
Put it out, see our friends
See the sights, feel alright
Are we like you?
I can't be sure
Of the scene, as she turns
We are strange in our worlds
But we are young, we get by
Can't go mad, ain't got time
Sleep around, if we like
But we're alright
Got some cash, bought some wheels
Took it out, 'cross the fields
Lost control, hit a wall
But we're alright
Are we like you
I can't be sure
Of the scene, as she turns
We are strange in our worlds
But we are young, we run green
Keep our teeth, nice and clean
See our friends, see the sights, feel alright
Are we like you
I can't be sure
Of the scene, as she turns
We are strange in our world
But we are young, we run green
Keep our teeth, nice and clean
See our friends, see the sights, feel alright
LOSE IT
*High Pitched Scream*
Don't lose it, don't lose it
I won't come home
'cause you never hold my hand
Coz you never hold my hand
(Ah-ah-ah-ah.... won't you say my name?)
So don't lose it, no don't lose it
I won't come home
Coz you never hold my hand
And don't lose it, no don't lose it
I won't come home
Coz you never hold my hand
(Ah-ah-ah-ah....did you call my name?)
I don't want anybody
Anyway, I know too much to say
All over again
So don't lose it, no don't lose it
I won't come home
Coz you never hold my hand
(Ah-ah-ah-ah....did you call my name?)
LENNY
I've been around and around
But I've got nowhere to go now
But the funny thing is
That when I'm gone, I'll kill you
When I tell you
I don't want you hoo-hoo
I've been around and around
But I've got nowhere to go now
But the funny thing is
That when I'm gone, I'll kill you
When I tell you
I don't want you hoo-hoo
Hoooooooo... yeah
Hoooooooo... yeah
Hoooooooo... yeah
I've been around and around
But I've got nowhere to go now
But the funny thing is
That when I'm gone, I'll kill you
When I tell you
When I tell you, oh yeah
When I tell you
I don't want you hoo-hoo
STRANGE ONES
Strange One: "Be gone, be gone!"
Follower: "Alas! I've lost you, I can't find you. Where are you?"
Strange One: "Get back! Get back!"
Follower: "I, I can't see you! I can't see you!"
There's a place where the strange ones go
Where nobody here could know
They look down from the clouds and smile at
Everyone down below
There's a place where the strange ones go
Where nobody here could know
They look down from the underground
At everyone down below
Well, I wanna cry for you
I wanna die for you
Everybody needs a home
Well, are you strange enough
Are you deranged enough
Every f*cker needs a wh*re
There's a place where the strange ones go
Where nobody here could know
They look down from the clouds and smile at
Everyone down below
There's a place where the strange ones go
Where nobody here could know
They look down from the underground
At everyone down below
Well, I wanna feel for you
I wanna steal for you
Everybody needs a home
Well, are you strange enough
Are you deranged enough
Every f*cker needs a wh*re
There's a place where the strange ones go
Where nobody here could know
They look down from the clouds and smile at
Everyone down below
There's a place where the strange ones go
Where nobody here could know
They look down from the underground
At everyone down below
There's a place where the strange ones go
Where nobody here could know
They look down from the clouds and smile at
Everyone down below
There's a place where the strange ones go
Where nobody here could know
They look down from the underground
At everyone down below
SITTING UP STRAIGHT
Sitting up straight on the back of a bus
Mimicking time as evening turns to dusk
Well, look at the boy with his face to the floor
Have a little smoke just to pass the time of the day
Oh yeah, oh yeah
He's like me, he'd do anything to get away
I know, can you be there every day? I know I can believe in you
It means everything and every power to me
Sitting up straight on the back of a bus
Mimicking time as evening turns to dusk
Well, look at the boy with his face to the floor
Have a little smoke to pass the time of the day
Hey, hey
Hey, hey
He's like me, he'll do anything to get away
I know, can you believe it, everyday I know I can believe in you
It means, everything and every power to me
Sitting up straight
Sitting up straight
Sitting up straight
Sitting up straight
Sitting up straight
On the back of a bus
On the back of a bus
On the back of a bus
On the back of a bus
On the back of a bus
SHE'S SO LOOSE
Take my love away
It's never gonna work for you
Well I met her at night
You know that seeing is believing
And though the feeling was right
Well she couldn't stop screaming
And she swallowed him down
To the heart of the world
She's so loose
She's so loose
Take these wings away
They're never gonna work for me
Well I met her at night
You know that seeing is believing
And though the feeling was right
Well she couldn't stop screaming
It's getting hotter again
In the heart of the world
Well he met her at night
You know that seeing is believing
And though the feeling was right
Well she couldn't stop screaming
And she swallowed him down
To the heart of the world
You know, she's so loose
WE'RE NOT SUPPOSED TO

We're not supposed to
Make friends with you
Because you look so lonely
So we're going to
Make friends with you
We're not supposed to (lala ti-la ti-la)

But you're no stranger

And everybody's coming to say (lalalala)
And everybody's wants us to stay (whoo-hoo-hoo-hoo) with you
We're not suppose to
Make love to you (make love to you)
Because we know you're younger (you're younger than me)

TIME
The time, is on the way
My love
I know I'm going away
My love
Yeah, I know what I, I see, have it all you
Yeah, I know what I, I see, have it all
The live, that feeling inside
My love
I know I'm going away
My love
Yeah, I know what I, I see, have it all you
Yeah, I know what I, I see, have it all
Yeah, I know what I, I see, have it all you
Now, I know what I, I see, have it all
Yeah, I know what I, have it all you
SOFA (OF MY LETHARGY)
I wondered for a while
I didn't have that far to go
Waiting for a letter
Only to discover that I'm not the same
I know it to be true
You're only going to go again
Standing at the harbour
There was only water to be talking to
I sold it to the trees
I didn't know which way to go
Underneath the harbour
Waiting for the sun to settle down
I owe it to the dreams
That always seem to bring me round
Waiting at the harbour
There was only water to be talking to
Hold on now, all I want to do is see you
But everybody's here just sitting 'round staring at the ceiling
What you gonna find in your mixed up minds when you're dreaming?
Could be we're not like you at all
Hold on now, all I want to do is see you
But everybody's there just sitting 'round staring at the ceiling
Funny what you find in your mixed up minds when your dreaming
Maybe we're not like you at all
TIME TO GO
Thanks to everyone for everything you've done but now
It's time to go
You know it's hard
We've had some fun
But now the moment's come
It's time to go
Who could ask for more?
Who could ask for more?
Thanks to everyone for everything you've done but now
It's time to go
You know it's hard
We've had some fun
But now the moment's come
It's time to go
Who could ask for more?
