Young Love (lyrics)

I feel i must apologise
i feel obliged
to say these words to you
Its not very nice
and its not too kind
but it's something that i must do

Young love has died
but you never cried
it has died
oh but you never cried

You said you were fancy
so lets go out dancing
on a hillside where no one can see
Would it be so rude
i don't mean to sound crude
but i only have one desire

Still young love has died
and you never cried
it died
but you've never cried

Why Do You Pretend? (lyrics)

Go down to the arcade
on a Friday night
play the slot machines
then later you get in a fight

Walking home with Annie
I heard you lost your way
your father came out looking
and you know he’ll never say

Why do you pretend
why do you pretend

Is it just to make me love you
or is it just to make me hate you
how does it feel
yes how does it feel

Your mother’s always nagging
why don’t you get a job
and the one that you run with
really is no good

A cut lip was all you got
you could say that you were lucky
but love it was not
I’d say you’re pretty unlucky

Why do you pretend
why do you pretend

Is it just to make me love you
or is it just to make me hate you
how does it feel
yes how does it feel

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
