Go Out And Live

Front page of
the daily newspaper
headline reads
love and murder

He has killed his lover
because there was no other
life just wouldn’t
be the same

Ten o'clock news
and the greying presenter
says nothing matters
anymore

So go out and live
but its not that easy
with a hatred
strapped your heart

No it wouldn’t be the same

Some One More Important

Now you're on the big screen
could you tell me
how does it feel, yes how does it feel
the only star this side 
of where i don't really know

Some one more important
should have known
they should have told you
that it really leads to nothing
and yet you still crave for something

The people weep and ask you
you're the only one 
can i be you, it's so good to be you
but is it really true
can you tell me if this is so?

Oh Shirley, Its Time To Go (lyrics)

Some times its just better
to forgive and forget her
an unspeakable time
some false spoken lines

The last time it happened
an invisible weapon
but don’t make a scene
just make sure it’s seen

You pretend that you heard
still a lesson not learned
what if, no that’s it
please now, no don’t sit

Oh Shirley, why’d you have to do it?
Oh Shirley, no one will believe it
time to go, come on
time to go

Over the dinner
she spoke of a sinner
only, you just stare
and sit in despair

Eager to please
you’re down on your knees
could it be worse
to leave in a hearse?

Twenty years have now passed
and what’s left of the lust
has all been cast
and left in the dust

Oh Shirley, why’d you have to do it?
Oh Shirley, no one will believe it
time to go, come on
time to go

Familiar Strangers (lyrics)

The day was the same
and yet so lame
so why did you even ask
yes why did you even ask

We’ve been here before
I know what I saw
who was waiting there?
you said that you wouldn’t stare

A familiar stranger
yes there’s nothing stranger
Nobody cares about you
nobody cares for you

By the edge of the river
we stood and we shivered
for the one that you missed
not the one that you kissed

Something must go
but quite what I don’t know
and if I ever get out of here
then I will call you dear

A familiar stranger
yes there’s nothing stranger
Nobody cares about you
nobody cares for you
