Lyrics

Here Comes Another One

here comes
another one
i wonder how
it's gonna turn

it shouldn't work
but somehow it does
is there magic at play
between each one of us
and all the pieces
fall into their place
there's never dischord
nothings out of place

here comes
another one
i wonder how
it's gonna turn
here comes
another one
we can only guess
what it's gonna be

it starts from nothing
maybe just a little spark
the fire starts burning
nothings gonna hold us back
it just pours out
there's nothing we can do
but let it flow...

here comes
another one
i wonder how
it's gonna turn
here comes
another one
we can only guess
what it's gonna be.............

here comes
another one
i wonder how
it's gonna turn
here comes
another one
there's nothing we can do
but let it flow...

Rainy Lorraine (unplugged)

Rainy Lorraine took my heart away
Rainy Lorraine she took my heart away
Left me broke and busted
Put me back out on the street

Rainy Lorraine took all I had to give
Rainy Lorraine took all I had to give
Left me high and dry
Placed me back up on the shelf

I’d do it all again
It’s better to have loved and lost
Than never loved at all……..
Never loved at all

Rainy Lorraine
Rainy Lorraine

Left me high and dry
Placed me back up on the shelf

Rainy Lorraine
Rainy Lorraine

Tomorrow

Those where the golden days
We where young and full of life
Everything came easy they where simpler times
But a new days dawned
And everything has changed
Nothing ever stays the same

So onto tomorrow
It’s the only way that you can go

A life less complicated
To which you can’t return
Each day sees you getting buried deeper
When you see the bigger picture
You realise how small we really all are

So onto tomorrow
It’s the only way that you can go
What’s the worst thing that can happen to you
They can’t take your memories away from you
That’s only something you can lose
So onto tomorrow
It’s the only way that you can go

So onto tomorrow
It’s the only way that we can go
So onto tomorrow
Okay here we go

Writing a Book

ive bin writing a book
its all about my life
hey its allegorical
a mix of truth and lies
ive got my pen in my hand
but the pages to come are still blank

the names are changed to protect the guilty
its set in places i have never been
im looking through my dictionary
to find out what that word might mean

ive bin writing a book etc

ive bin writing a song
straight off the top of ma head
i just let the words come out
and then i put them to bed
ive got my mike in my hand
i just love singing with this band

the name we chose was deliberately silly
it came to me in a drunken dream
were having so much fun together
its just a f@@@ing scream
ive bin writing a song etc
ive got my mike in my hand
i just love singing with this band
ive bin writing a song

You Always Know

there's a look
in your eyes
there's a look
that i think ive seen before

you've a way
of just being
you've a way
of cutting to the chase

how do you know
how can you tell
whats going on
you always know when there's something wrong
what's going on
you always know

there are meanings
in your voice
there are meanings
that the words alone cant say

how do you know
how can you tell
whats going on
you always know when there's something wrong
what's going on
you always know

how do you know
how can you tell
whats going on
you always know when there's something wrong
what's going on
you always know

you've a way
of just being
you've a way
of just cutting to the chase

Wot's wiv the Dog?

Wots wiv the dog
Wots wiv the dog
Wots wiv the dog
Wots wiv the dog

Never seen one so small and ugly
Never seen one so like it’s master
It makes me sick
To my stomachs pit
I wanna vomit
I wanna spit
Little Chihuahua
Ugly little thing
I’m gonna stick it
In next door’s fucking bin

Wots wiv the dog
Wots wiv the dog
Wots wiv the dog
Wots wiv the dog

I’m gonna stamp
On it’s little fucking head
Then kick it over
The neighbour’s hedge
It makes me sick
To my stomachs pit
I wanna vomit
I wanna spit
Little Chihuahua
Ugly little thing
I’m gonna stick it
In the next litter bin

Wots wiv the dog
Wots wiv the dog
Wots wiv the dog
Wots wiv the dog
Never seen one so small and ugly
Never seen one so like it’s master
My gawd you’re ugly
And that’s the truth
If all girls looked like you
I’d rather be a poof
Little Chihuahua
That’s what you’re called
Big bulging eyes
And fucking bald

Wots wiv the dog
Wots wiv the dog
Wots wiv the dog
Wots wiv the dog

I wouldn’t touch you
With a ten foot fucking pole
I’m not that desperate for my hole

Listen to Wot We've Done

We don’t take ourselves too seriously
It’s all about just having fun
But if we fall upon a perfect harmony
We’ll grab it and then let it run
Stop by for a moment
Stop by for a while
listen
Listen to what we’ve done
Listen to what we’ve done
Listen to what we’ve done
Listen to what we’ve done

Just three fellas been around the block
We get together so that we can rock
We bounce our ideas of each other
Look whats happened
Here’s another
Stop by for a moment
Stop by for a while
listen
Listen to what we’ve done
Listen to what we’ve done
Listen to what we’ve done
Listen to what we’ve done

Stop by for a moment
Stop by for a while
listen
Listen to what we’ve done
Listen to what we’ve done
Listen to what we’ve done
Listen to what we’ve done

Pretentious Moi

We started band to express our feelings
We started band create new art
We started band with a manifesto
We call ourselves pretentious moi
All the girls are gonna love us
We call ourselves pretentious moi
All the boys are gonna hate us
We call ourselves pretentious moi

We dress in black and look like girlies
To show artistic integrity
nous chantons en français
and talk like bowie
je ne comprende
know what I mean
All the girls are gonna love us
We call ourselves pretentious moi
All the boys are gonna hate us
We call ourselves pretentious moi

All the girls are gonna love us
We call ourselves pretentious moi
All the boys are gonna hate us
We call ourselves pretentious moi

We started band to express our feelings
We started band create new art
We started band with a manifesto
We call ourselves pretentious moi

Future Passed

He wears a kaftan
And walks an afghan
He worships vinyl
He’s in denial
He’s locked into a future passed
like alice through the looking glass
He doesn’t see the world go past
He’s locked into a future passed

Hey don’t get heavy
He’s mellow yellow
He likes to think
He’s an extraordinary fellow
He’s locked into a future passed
He drinks from plastic not from glass
He better run he’s late for class
He’s locked into a future passed

He’s retrosexual like desperate dan
He’s intellectual like Immanuel Kant
He’s locked into a future passed
Like alice through the looking glass
He only smokes the finest grass
He better run he’s late for class

He wears a kaftan
And walks an afghan
He worships vinyl
He’s in denial

Can't You See

Here comes little boy blunder
With all the answers to your woes
Another bloody chinless wonder
Hey hey tally ho
He’s not gonna sout out your problems
With his kwik fix platitudes
There isn’t any easy answers
If you don’t know that then you should
I wouldn’t trust him as far as I could throw him
And that’s not very far at all
Can’t you see
Can’t you see
Can’t you see
Through the lies
Can’t you see
Can’t you see
Can’t you see
It’s in his eyes

Here comes little boy blunder
Holding babies shaking hands
Another bloody chinless wonder
He’s the man he’s the man
If you don’t know that then you should
I wouldn’t trust him as far as I could throw him
And that’s not very far at all
Can’t you see
Can’t you see
Can’t you see
Through the lies
Can’t you see
Can’t you see
Can’t you see
It’s in his eyes

I wouldn’t trust him as far as I could throw him
And that’s not very far at all
Can’t you see
Can’t you see
Can’t you see
Through the lies
Can’t you see
Can’t you see
Can’t you see
It’s in his eyes
Can’t you see
Can’t you see
Can’t you see
Through the lies
Can’t you see
Can’t you see
Can’t you see
It’s in his eyes

Ex-factor

a craving for instant celebrity
become a footballers wife
a sleazy story in the sunday press
and you'll be set up for life
so get an agent and you'll get ahead
just watch the money roll in
just put your name down on the dotted line
x marks the spot'll do fine

we'll get you noticed we'll get you exposed
you'll be seen everywhere
from the opening of an envelope
to a movie premier
just flash some flesh for all the cameramen
they're there wherever you go
just keep it up and it wont be too long
your own reality show

Never Give Up

you might be low
you might be down
but i wont let
your ship run aground

you might be sad
you might be blue
but babe
you're gonna pull through

you might be mad
you might be crazy
but hey!
i'm crazy 'bout you

just take my hand
it'll be alright
i'm there for you
i'm here for you
just like i know
you're there for me

never give up
never gonna give up....................etc
on you
never give up
never gonna give up....................etc
on you

at times like these
you know your friends
they're the ones that stick around

at times like these
the outlooks bleak
but you don't know what's in store for you

just take my hand
it'll be alright
i'm there for you
i'm here for you
just like i know
you're there for me

just take my hand
it'll be alright
i'm there for you
i'm here for you
just like i know
you're there for me

never give up
never gonna give up....................etc
on you
never give up
never gonna give up....................etc
on you

just take my hand
it'll be alright
i'm there for you
i'm here for you
just like i know
you're there for me

you might be mad
you might be crazy
but hey!
i'm crazy 'bout you

Sound of the People

We can do it together
We can do it as one
Shoulder to shoulder
Standing firm
we can make it happen
We can turn things round
We can sing together
Can you hear the sound
The sound of the people
The sound of us all
Can you hear us singing
Can you hear our song

You can suffer in silence
Keep it to yourself
Don’t need charity
You don’t need help
Cos it’ll never happen
Things won’t turn around
We’ll never catch you singing
Or hear the sound
The sound of the people
The sound of us all
Can you hear us singing
Can you hear our song

We can do it together
We can do it as one
Shoulder to shoulder
Standing firm
we can make it happen
We can turn things round
We can sing together
Can you hear the sound
The sound of the people
The sound of us all
Can you hear us singing
Can you hear our song

Words

Words all have meanings
Words can be tools
Words can be hateful
Or a power for good
Learn how to use them
Make them work for you
Forms of expression
There’s so much they can do

Written or spoken
Laid in tablets of stone
They can be broken
They can be reborn
Communication
Let them hear
Just what you’re saying
Loud and clear
Communication
Let them hear
Just what you’re saying
Loud and clear

Making connections
Sharing your thoughts
Maybe likeminded
Maybe their not
You can be opened
Into new ways of seeing
You can be challenged
Into new ways of being

Written or spoken
Laid in tablets of stone
They can be broken
They can be reborn
Communication
Let them hear
Just what you’re saying
Loud and clear
Communication
Let them hear
Just what you’re saying
Loud and clear

Words all have meanings
Words can be tools
Words can be hateful
Or a power for good
Communication
Let them hear
Just what you’re saying
Loud and clear

Time

Hey I’m blowin’ hot and cold
Just got too much going on
Gotta make some time
Gotta make some time
Time is precious
Time is tight
Spend it well
Spend it well
With the ones you love spend it well

Hey I’m rushing to and fro
Not getting anything done
Gotta make some time
Gotta make some time
Time is fleeting
Time is fast
‘fore you know it
time has passed
time is ticking
time is blind
there isn’t every
any time
time
Hey I’m blowin’ hot and cold
Just got too much going on
Gotta make some time
spend it well
with the ones you love
Time is fleeting
Time is fast
‘fore you know it
time has passed
time is ticking
time is blind
there isn’t every
any time
