It's now become the saddest story
I was never worth the worry
Not that you would notice anyway

But when I'm walking in my sleep
The floor is cold beneath my feet
And as I step
You're with me everyday

You, oh you
You've gone and started something
That you won't see through
You, oh you
You've got this thing about what should be coming true
He was a friend
Things were different then
Either way I have to lose
And now it seems
There is a distance between
What you say and what you do

You're steps will always lead me here
I've found myself in God knows where
It's something I will always seem to do

You know you'll ask me how I've been
But what exactly do you mean
What would you like for me to say to you?

You, oh you
You've gone and started something
That you won't see through
You, oh you
You've got this thing about what should be coming true
You were a friend
Things were different then
Either way I have to lose
And now it seems
There is a distance between
What you say and what you do

He was a friend
Things were different then
Either way I have to lose
And now it seems
There is a distance between
What you say and what you do

You, oh you
You've gone and started something
That you won't see through
You, oh you
You've got this thing about what should be coming true
You, oh you...
You, oh you...
You, oh you...
You'vbe gone and started something
That you won't see through
You, oh you...

TAKE IT OUT SOMETIMES
Wide, wider than the cut that's through my pride
That I'm locked inside a box
and I will hide under my bed
so I can take it out sometimes

Be, all I want to be
but do I see that I'm only half a person
All i need is a good night's sleep
you know, I stay awake sometimes

Say, what you're trying to say
are you afraid that I'm not listening anyway
so do you wait till you can get it out straight
do you think of me sometimes?
is it more than just sometims when I'm down?

So do you wait till you can get it out straight
Do you know all these things I've got to say

Do you think of me sometimes?
Is it more than just sometims when I'm down?

ORDINARY GIRL
I'm just an ordinary
Same old, nothing new
I can tell you ordinary
Same old, nothing things

CHORUS:
Say something funny
Or say something smart
Say something clever
I would but you know I can't

I've got no intellectual inspiration
Wish I had some entertaining things
That I could say

CHORUS

I'm just an ordinary
Same old, nothing me
You know my eloquence is not quite
What it used to be

CHORUS

I would if I only could but you know I can't

MAKING A SCENE
Making a scene, I'm coming clean
Thought I'd like to put you in your place
My drink in your face
Would it look so bad
And now, I'll live this down
Let me know if I'm talking much too loud
Or drawing a crowd
I don't mind if you don't mind

I'd like to see you
I'd like to take you on

Now I can't go wrong
Your thumb's been in my path for much too long
Now I'm feeling strong
And I will speak my mind

I'd like to see you
I'd like to take you on
Take you on
I'd like to see you
I'd like to take you on
Take you on

I DON'T MEAN IT
Don't make me laugh
I'm not sure I'll feel it now
Believe in the reason
Straight from your heart
What you gonna tell your friends?
When they ask you about it

CHORUS:
I guess that's alright
Always saying I don't mind and I say it all the time
I don't mean it

Don't even start
I'm not listening now
Don't (......?......)
Straight from your heart
What you gonna tell your friends?
When they ask you about it

CHORUS TWICE

I don't mean it (*6)

CHORUS TWICE

I don't mean it (*6)

LONELY LOLA CHERRY COLA GIRL
Lonely lola cherry cola girl
How much do they pay you for your smile?
Alone in your own creaming soda world
Maybe you were happy for a while
Lola you're a star tonight
Don't let them pluck you from the sky

Lonely Lola everybody knows
Everybody calls themselves your friend
But later on tonight when it gets cold
Lola who's (ah) gonna hold you then?
There's something in your eyes tonight
Forget them and take it in your stride

CHORUS:
My friends told me 'bout how you've been gettin' out
But no-one seems to know your name
Slide on through the crowd and let them talk aloud
They only want to hold ya
Do they really know ya Lola?

So you say you're Lonely, Lola, sure
Everybody gets that way sometimes
But Lonely Lola you could know the cure
Wait it out and Lola, you'll be fine
It's easy if you try tonight
Don't sit there and keep on asking 'Why?'

CHORUS

Lola you're on fire tonight
Don't sit there and keep on asking 'Why?'

CHORUS

Do they really know you Lola? (*4)

ALL FALL DOWN
Daylight, let it stir you
Let it Kiss the sleep out from your eyes
Feel this weight now, lift into the sky now
On and on and on
On and on and on

Cradle, so deeply
So sleeply when I close my eyes
Sprinkle morning all over you and I
On and on and on
On and on and on

CHORUS:
Sleep tonight
Drains into the morning
Let it feel alright
It beckons like a warning

Trace it, embrace it
See it crashing through this pretty light
And yes you know me and how this thing of ours goes
On and on and on
On and on and on

CHORUS TWICE

And when we touch the ground
We all fall down

WELCOME TO MY KITCHEN
Welcome to my kitchen, I will just about be dishin'
What as much as you can take
Scoop my heart into a plate
Step into the light and my eyes are opened wide
Let me flash at you a smile that I've been practising a while
As much as you can take

If I fall of the stage will you feel fully entertained?
Well I really don't mind if you're not listening
I could be myself, I could be somebody else
There's a million other people I'd rather be
But it's much, too much, too late

CHORUS:
All welcome tonight
Hope you're feeling alright
I could be cornering myself
Out here in a daze
Don't believe what I say
I'm full of promises

I should be alone, you know I should have stayed at home
But these butterflies inside, they wanna take me for a ride
It's over pretty quickly
Still, it makes me feel quite sickly
And I hope that you don't mind you know I do this all the time
I often wonder why...

CHORUS

La la la la la hope you're feeling alright
All welcome tonight...hope you're feeling alright
Aaaaaaahhhh.... (AD LIB TO END)

DUST
Blades of grass
That shiver as I pass
The world's asleep but I'm awake
I'm walking home home again

Morning stars
Left my shoes back at the bar
Didn't know my house was quite so far,
So far from anywhere

Strange how the ground
Seems up-side down
And morning - it starts without me
Did I let you down?
Should I come around?
Would that make things better baby?

You and I
We get along just fine
But oh, we both want to be right
It's just not possible

Change your mind
Or maybe I'll change mine
But either way we won't arrive
At something plausible

I'll see you 'round
When you're in town
And you can pretend to hate me
All trace of love
Has turned to dust
Which I've been collecting lately.

CLOSE THE DOOR, PUT OUT THE LIGHT
Close the door, put out the light,
come sleep till tomorrow comes creeping.
Talk some more, till I grow tired,
don't leave till you know that I'm sleeping.

Don't say goodbye, just slide away into the dark
and take with you my heart.

Close the door, put out the light,
come sleep till tomorrow comes creeping.
Down the hall they're talking lies,
don't speak of the troubles you're keeping.

Don't fall behind, just know that everything is fine,
knowing that you're mine.

Close the door, put out the light,
this day leaves me tired and heavy.
Waking hours will always fall away,
when you feel you're ready.

Don't say goodbye, just slide away into the dark
and take with you my heart.
