NEVER
LIKED THE BEATLES
In a technicolour world/It's seldom black n white/Who's to say what's
wrong/Who's to swear what's right/There's no account for taste/No guideline for
style/One man's Sgt Pepper/Is another man's Smile/NEVER LIKED THE BEATLES/I WANT
SOMETHING NEW/A DREAMHOME OF A CONDO/ON THE DARK SIDE OF THE MOON/NEVER LIKED
THE BEATLES/WHAT DID THEY EVER DO/LEAVE ME WITH MY ACID TRIPS/MY PSYCHEDELIC
STEW/Don't take it for granted, man/Getting worse all the time/You can't live
forever/So get back in the line/There's no coming down/From the magic carpet
ride/Cos the mind has been blown/And the music has been fried/REPEAT
CHORUS/Don't you read the papers, boy/Rock is dead, they say/Head on down to the
discotheque/Let's all shout "ODELAY"!!!/C'mon and sample what you
can/And rip up the past/Pass it off as the latest big thing/Do it fast cos
nothing lasts/REPEAT CHORUS
THERE
SHE STANDS
It’s no life when you find someone then they leave you/You say that she’s
breaking your heart-she won’t believe you/She stepped right into your life-You
wonder/ “Why was I wasting my time”-You’re risking all But you feel
you’re alive-You lose control/And you’re starting to fall/AND THERE SHE
STANDS/PLAIN BLACK SWEATER & ANGEL HANDS/SAYING THAT SHE HAS TO GO/LYING
THROUGH MY TEETH I SAY-‘I KNOW’/You can’t believe your luck, it seems
she’s just found you/And now that she’s letting you go, your feelings
astound you/She has to try it and see-You’re thinking/“Can’t she be happy
with me”-You’re feeling “I’ll never understand why-You lose control/And
you’re starting to cry/AND THERE SHE STANDS/PLAIN BLACK SWEATER & ANGEL
HANDS/SAYING THAT SHE HAS TO GO/LYING THROUGH MY TEETH I SAY-‘I
KNOW’/SMILING THROUGH THE TEARS I SAY ‘DON’T GO’/ASKING IF SHE
WOULDN’T STAY/MAYBE JUST FOR ONE MORE DAY/LYING THROUGH MY TEETH I SAY ‘I
KNOW’/You felt your life was complete and now you feel broken/So many things
have been changed, so few words have been spoken/She says she’ll try to
explain-Why you’ll be/Much stronger long after the pain-You ask her/“Will I
ever see you again”-You look away/And the tears fall again/REPEAT
CHORUS/It’s no life when you find someone then they leave you
BEAUTIFUL
I see in you/My dreams come true/I have been blessed by this view/I understand
/That I'm a better man/Cos I've got you as a fan/BEAUTIFUL WONDERFUL/CAN'T
BELIEVE HOW GREAT IT'S BEEN/WONDERFUL BEAUTIFUL/LOVE IS AS GOOD AS IT SEEMS/I
have in you / A dedicated tool/To do as I tell you to/I’m your boy/And I’m
overjoyed/Please treat me like a toy/REPEAT CHORUS/I leave with you/A precious
jewel/So don’t you dare be cruel/I’m your pal/Yes I’ll be a easy sell/Just
don’t you ever call me Cal
HERE
Take
my hand/Say you understand/These words of mine/These testing times/In my
heart/You’ll always be a part/Of my life/I see you smile/And it’s all
worthwhile/I have no fear/Cos I feel you near/In my mind/I know it will be
fine/For our love/ELECTRICITY FLOWS THROUGH MY VEINS/YES I’M GETTING THAT
FEELING AGAIN/THIS SENSATION I CAN’T DESCRIBE, DEAR
ALL
OR NOTHING
Shine a little light in this darkened world I call my life/C'mon be my guide
there can be no doubt when you're by my side/AND IT'S ALL OR NOTHING WITHOUT
YOUR PRECIOUS TOUCH/AND IT'S ALL OR NOTHING BECAUSE I NEED YOU TOO MUCH/GIMME
ALL OF YOUR LOVIN' OR NOTHING AT ALL/Say a little prayer for the wasteland of my
soul/Just show some care, keep me alive when the winter gets too cold/REPEAT
CHORUS/Gimme a little strength to get me through the stormy night/Go to any
length, set the home fires burning bright/REPEAT CHORUS
LET
IT ROLL
Is
that feedback in my ears or just another delusion?/Trying so hard/ Can't tell
fantasy from reality/This song's been playing in my head & I don't want it
to end/Gimme some time to put my existence right/LET IT ROLL/LET IT ROLL/LET IT
ROLL/I DON'T HAVE THE ANSWERS/SO LET IT ROLL/I'm not living on the edge/Why do
you push me so far?/Am I abnormal to believe in peace and love ?/When I laugh at
you y'know I'm crying for myself./There's no solution/Don't bother looking/LET
IT ROLL/ LET IT ROLL/LET IT ROLL/I DON'T HAVE THE ANSWERS/SO LET IT ROLL/LET IT
ROLL/LET IT ROLL/ LET IT ROLL/I DON'T KNOW ABOUT TOMORROW/SO LET IT ROLL/Yes
I'm serious about the pain/Yes I'm delirious but I'm still sane/Hey I'm ain't
joking I'm so sorry/Though I'm choking Please don't worry/This cold hard
city's taking me down/Are you coming for the ride? (I wonder)/Let's celebrate
our slow demise/ Together/See me smiling through the haze - mmm that million
dollar sneer/Stoned crazy out of my mind/ Allegedly/LET IT ROLL/LET IT ROLL/LET
IT ROLL/I DON'T HAVE THE ANSWERS/SO LET IT ROLL/LET IT ROLL. LET IT ROLL. LET IT
ROLL/I DON'T KNOW ABOUT TOMORROW. SO LET IT ROLL/LET IT ROLL/LET IT ROLL. LET IT
ROLL/I DON'T CARE ABOUT YOUR VIEWS/SO LET IT ROLL
DISTANT
MIRRORS
All my life/The brakes have been bad/A living strife/Made me miserable &
sad/Then you came/Brought light into my night/A burning flame/That shone out so
bright/AND I WAS WALKING ON AIR/COS I HAD SOMEONE WHO CARED/WHEN THE WORLD WAS
UNFAIR/YOU'D ALWAYS BE THERE/But its over/Couldn't love me anymore/Perfect
lover/You slammed the door/Now I'm alone/Holding up fragile walls/Breakin
bones/Waiting for you to call/AND I WAS WALKING ON AIR/COS I HAD SOMEONE WHO
CARED/WHEN THE WORLD WAS UNFAIR/YOU'D ALWAYS BE THERE/In my heart/It's
impossible to feel/This happy loss/Of my hopeless appeal/Out of my mind/Sweet
insanity/The nearest faraway place/Beyond infinity/AND I WAS WALKING ON ICE/AND
IT'S CRACKED OPEN LIKE MY SOUL/COS I BELIEVED ALL YOUR LIES/I'M DEAD ALREADY
DON'T YOU KNOW
PAST
TENSE We
used to sit on the stools by the beach/Watching the day begin/The Changi
shoreline filling up our eyes/To warm the hearts within/HERE AND THERE/WE TRY TO
RECAPTURE/THE GOLDEN MOMENTS OF OUR PAST/THE LANDMARKS HAVE GONE / BUT THE
MEMORIES LIVE ON/IN OUR HEART OF HEARTS/AND IN OUR SOULS .../Walking hand in
hand on the Esplanade/Laugh at our awkward embrace/The Merlion spying on our
rendezvous/As we kissed right under the stars/REPEAT CHORUS/Where are the little shops along old Dhoby Ghaut /Where is the Yue Court
at the corner of Hill Street/What happened to the National Theatre we used to
love/And the Supreme House we all knew so well/Sharing a sundae at Magnolia
Snack Bar/Gazing into your face/Catching a movie at the Odeon/Getting to know
each other/REPEAT CHORUS
THE
JAM I
was feeling lonely in a crush/At the opening sale it was such a mad rush/So many
people too little time/Running out of patience to wait in line OVER & OVER
ONCE MORE FROM THE TOP/OVER & OVER MY MIND'S JUST GONNA POP/OVER & OVER
WON'T YOU MAKE IT STOP/OVER & OVER MY MIND'S JUST GONNA POP/
I stared blankly into an endless sea/I felt helpless about my destiny
/Overpowered by this urgent need/I was really low everything gone to seed REPEAT
CHORUS Somewhere The Jam played In The Crowd/As I sang along I laughed out
loud/So I turned away cos I never loved style/That little lesson made it all
worthwhile REPEAT CHORUS
NOTHING
ON THE RADIO
I turned on the radio/Looking for some music with a little soul/All I got was an
empty sound/The kind that makes the world go round/Twisting the dial I felt
frustrated/I never ever felt so castrated/DJs playing the same old tune like
they’ve been living on the bloody moon/AND THERE WAS NOTHING NOTHING ON THE
RADIO/COS THERE WAS NO ONE WHO KNEW HOW TO ROCK N ROLL/THERE WAS NOTHING
NOTHING ON THE RADIO/THERE WAS NO ONE WHO KNEW WHAT WAS POPLAND
SOUL/Radio stations what is your role/Treading the middle ground is where you
go/Safe as milk you can never grow/Don’t be shocked if you reap what you sow/I
turned on the radio/Looking for some music with a little soul/All I got was an
empty sound/The kind that makes the world go round/REPEAT CHORUS
