The Tan Centre

|
Follow the path to the bright light
Leading the way through the dark night
Open the door step inside
I'm gonna get myself brown while the sun rubs me down
Melting all of my troubles and cares away
Down in the tan centre sun shines for everyone.
Beautiful girls dressed in white clothes
Show you a place where the sun glows
Room after room of delight
I'm gonna get myself brown while the sun rubs me down
Melting all of my troubles and cares away
Down in the tan centre sun shines for everyone.
I'm gonna take all my chances forget about cancer
And tell all my friends and my family now
Down in the tan centre time stops for everyone.

Don't Ask Why
04:03

I gotta whole in my head that's bringing me down
Going right back round till I don't know
If there's something inside that's driving me wild
Cos I get so high that i don't ask why
I got this terrible noise that's drowning my mind
And it gets so loud that I don't know
If I'm gonna survive the feeling this time
But I get so high that I don't ask why
Throw my money back to
Doing the things I can for you
Running my day by the things you say
I've got the whole of brain pushing me down
And it gets so strong that I don't know
If I'm dead or alive, i'm crippled inside
But I don't care now and I don't ask why
Throw my money back to you
Doing the things I can for you
Running my day by the things you say

My Happy Home
02:38
|

|
A Strangers eyes are staring through the window
Which used to be happy home
Home take me home
Back to my happy home
Home take me home to my happy home
A tainted hand now tightens round tomorrow
And squeezes the life out the land
Home take me home
Back to my happy home
Home take me home to my happy home

Far Too Kind

|
She makes me happy
She makes me smile
She may not be the model type
Then nor am I
She makes my dinner
Then wants my time
But I'm not looking for advice
Is that a crime?
It's enough to drive you wild
She makes me wonder
If I've been blind
Cos now she wants to change my life
I'm far too kind
It's enough to drive you wild
Far too kind far too kind
Far too kind far too kind.....
It' enough to drive you wild

What About the Gob? pt 1

|

|
One glimpse keeps me going till tomorrow
One smile knock me off the straight and narrow
She's got me in a spin I don't know why
She's got me so I never get to sleep at night
And every waking hour she's on my mind
What about the gob? What about the gob?
Oh, what about the gob?
What about the gob? What about the gob?
Oh, what about the it?
Ooh....

Celebrity

I can be anything you want me to be
I can dance I can sing I can act out your fantasy
Anytime any place anything I can do it for you
I can do things that you'd never dream
I can fit my words so good to your melody
Just give me one chance and I know I could do it for you
I can be whiter than white
I'll do whatever you like
If you'll just let me be
A celebrity
Take me to parties where I can be seen
Let them take my photo for the cover of a magazine
Let them all stand round and watch me pose while I'm doing my thing
Get me on a show where they all love me
You can have my soul if you get me onto kids TV
Just give me the fame and the money and the rest you can have it for free
I can be whiter than white
I'll do whatever you like
If you'll just let me be
A celebrity
I'll get right down on my knees
And do whatever you please
If you'll just let me be
A celebrity
I can be whiter than white
I'll do whatever you like
If you'll just let me be
A celebrity

Here In My Home
04:27
|
|||
|
I want a big strong man to come along and put a smile on my face (Yeh yeh yeh yeh)
With a look so mean he could put anyone in their place
(Yeh yeh yeh yeh)
Drive a big fast car down the street when we're going for a ride
(Yeh yeh yeh yeh)
All the neighbours will look and think Jackie 'O' is inside
(Yeh yeh yeh yeh)
Here in my home
Everything's gold
money just flows
Ah.......
The big white house down the street with the pillars outside (Yeh yeh yeh yeh)
When I marry I'll have them all thinking I'm the sexiest bride (Yeh yeh yeh yeh)
I'll keep the house nice and clean while he's doing his time (Yeh yeh yeh yeh)
Cos the money will roll and roll making everything fine
(Yeh yeh yeh yeh)
Here in my home
Everything's gold
money just flows
Ah.......

What About the Gob? pt2
02:02
|

|
Eyes that look into your very soul
Skin so perfect like a marble stone
She's got me in a fix I don't know why
She's got me so I never get my thinking right
For just one single kiss I'd gladly die
What about the gob? What about the gob?
Oh what about the gob?
What about the gob? What about the gob?
Oh what about it?
Ooh...
The gob, the gob, the gob
The gob, the gob, the gob
The gob, the gob, the gob
I must admit it really is one terrible gob.

My Only Friend
03:52
|
|||
|
I asked my only friend to stay with me just for a while
He looked right through me like there wasn't anybody in there, like he just didn't care.
I passed a thousand faces till one turned to my surprise
It was my own reflection laughing, pointing, shouting me down
What goes around
Comes around
You've built your tower now watch it crashing to the ground
I think i might be dreaming but it's all too real this time
I run into some place to rest my head, turn back the tide
But all my fears are rising pushing me and pulling inside till there's nowhere to hide
I feel my soul returning to the way I was before
Now in my darkest hour there's nothing but these voices so loud
What goes around
Comes around
You've built your tower now watch it crashing to the ground
The deal's been signed
Your soul is mine
You never thought you'd ever make it out alive?
I think I might be dreaming but it's all too real this time
And so good bye forgive me you were my only friend
I thought you'd be beside me until the end
The fire below burns brightly on judgement day
The price you pay for living the devil's way
Thought I might be dreaming but it's killing me this time.

Just Getting By
03:47
|

|
Every day he grows a little wiser and wiser
To his mum he couldn't have turned out finer
And everyone knows that he's just getting by
Nobody ever asks why
On the street, his image growing wider and wider
You couldn't meet anyone who's kinder
and everyone knows that he's just getting by
Nobody ever asks why
Ah.................................
Ah.................................
Ah.................................

I Have A Place
01:42
|
|||
|
I have a place I can go when I'm feeling inspired
Where a thought catches fire
Spins me around lifts my feet off the ground
till I'm carried along for the ride.
I like to go and be all on my own for a while
Where the people outside can't read the signs
All the colours I see leaves them blind to the sound I've in mind.

Would you like to come in my balloon?
I can take you high in my balloon
We can chase the sky up to the moon
In my balloon.
Everything looks great in my balloon
You can see for miles in my balloon
We could have such fun in my balloon
I'll sing a tune
In my balloon
In my balloon, in my balloon, in my balloon
In my balloon I can fly you so high
Up through the clouds and into the sky
Down on the ground they'll be waving goodbye
Goodbye, goodbye
Everyone feels good in my balloon
Come and spend some time in my balloon
I've a big surprise in my balloon
It's coming soon
In my balloon
In my balloon, in my balloon, in my balloon
In my balloon I can fly you so high

Down on the ground they'll be waving goodbye
Goodbye, goodbye
Goodbye, goodbye, goodbye, goodbye
In my balloon we can fly
Up through the clouds in the sky
In my balloon we can fly so high
In my balloon we can fly
Up through the clouds in the sky
In my balloon we can fly so high
Everything looks good in my

Flying through the sky in my
Going oh so high in my
You could be so good in my
Watching all the world go by
Flying through the sky in my
See your friends all wave goodbye
Everything looks good in my
I can see for miles in my
Flying through the sky in my
Going oh so high in my
You could be so good in my
Watching all the world go by
Flying through the sky in my
Wave your friends goodbye
In my balloon, In my balloon...............

All The King's Men

I come with news from the king to all the people
Gather around stand in line
Even the poor and the mild shall be rewarded
Just keep to the path you'll be fine
Don't look behind
Cast out the doubts and the demons inside
Wipe your mind
Then you'll never need to think or hope there's something more to find
Cos that's a crime
All of your voices are mine
Nothing to do or decide
Raise your hands
and smile
