City 03:29
What doesn't kill you makes you stronger But you're not getting any younger So is it any wonder you live life like this evening Is the last night you will spend on earth I wish I knew what you were thinking You're at the bar getting the drinks in Is 7 vodka-tonics enough to wash away the hurt? Another night out in the city... And just as soon as you are able You're gonna climb down from that table And use your fists like you're Clark Gable There's swinging in the aisles and handbags At the gates of dawn Next thing you're lying on the pavement Just wondering where all of your mates went You've never felt this lonely since yesterday When you were born Another night out in the city... And when you come to on the settee To soothing sounds of breakfast TV Last night's a blur a distant memory It must have been a good one coz your mum saw you On News at Ten Smells from the kitchen make you queasy You feel a presence you're uneasy You couldn't sink much mower so tonight you'll do it All again Another night out in the city???

Dime Brother 04:21
Light has a habit of filling a hole Leave a little light on so it shines on your soul Patience is calling so give it some time Leave a little patience in the back of your mind Spare a dime for me brother Gonna shine on you brother Speak your mind with each other You'll be fine little brother Spare a dime for me brother Freedom is priceless so give it away Save a little freedom for a rainy day Forgive me for asking but please don't forget Forgetting forgiveness is something you'll regret Spare a dime for me brother... The least that I can do Is sing it all for you You punch and kick and chew Is that the worst of you? I do it all for you Spare a dime for me brother... Sometimes you need just a hand-hold Stop looking at life through a pinhole We'll raise a glass not a thimble All the way from uptown to central

Hot-tubbing majorettes sell you cigarettes Undermining etiquette with their pretty legs Hold that idea while we hedge our bets All through the years Got to press the flesh Undress your fears till nothing is left Legs, breasts and perfect skin It's the packaging ALl designed to sell you thin At the price of sin Hold that idea, coz we're safe with sex All through the years Got to press the flesh Undress your fears till nothing is left

Hospital green was the colour of the dress You were wearing when I took you down To Accident & Emergency An irony of life you'd call it now, I guess But it didn't seem that funny then to me After a while when the drugs had blocked the hole I took off in search of sustenance A life-affirming cup of tea I passed by a bed where the curtains were Half-drawn And I thought I heard an angel call to me Why don't you need me? Am I so needy? Why don't you bleed for me? Hospital green is the colour in my hair I'm so sick and I'm so tired of eating Soft food with a plastic spoon I passed by a door Where the stories were half-told And I thought I heard an angel call to me Why don't you need me?... Hospital green is the colour of my love Can you see it can you taste it Can you feel it here inside of me As memories fade And your photos turn to dust At least you'll know my ghost is haunting you Why don't you need me?...

I'll have a P please Bob You may laugh but to me It's the difference between nothing and a walkman Between a walkman and a camera Between a camera and an adventure holiday in Inverness I'll have a P please Bob You may laugh but to me it's the difference Between a headline on the front page And a paragraph on page 8 Next to a story of a man Who shaved his legs for charity I won't let myself be beaten By no Harrow, Windsor or Eton Or some grammar school from Bucks Even though my comprehensive sucks I'm just doing this for me Not some coat of arms in assembly What a difference it could be To be a local celebrity Oh can't you see please Bob? My whole life rests in this letter A chance to make it better Or stay the same forever Or stay the same I won't let myself be beaten... I'll have a P please Bob You may laugh I'll have a P please Bob You may laugh I'll have a P please Bob You may laugh P Q R S T U V W X Y and Z

Black Eyes 04:18
As the last sun fails Leaving vapour trails Catch the fast train home Celebrate alone It's hard to tell the difference What is rel and what is true? A multitude of colours And none of them for you We sit and watch for hours And we see with blackened eyes Rolling with the punch Judy's feeling drunk As we're being led By these marionettes It's hard to tell the difference What is rel and what is true? A multitude of colours And none of them for you We sit and watch for hours And we see with blackened eyes Search for what is ours underneath the blackened skies We summon all our powers Just to see with blackened eyes

Exit Wound 05:27
When the bullet hits Makes no difference if you're ready for it Weak flesh frail bone Is no resistance to the bullet that hits Its finds it's place it sits and waits Till you can't live without it But the exit wound will kill you The silence would just fill you And nothing blocks the hole You know you can't continue The exit wound will kill you It's too late to control Old wounds may heal But you still feel the scar The point of entry The bullets now as vital to you As the air that you breathe One shot is all it took To change your life for eternity But the exit wound will kill you...

No lunch free Guess we'll sing for our supper tonight Call on me Gonna share with you brother Take a byte Give us a song Give us a song If you think we are scared then you are wrong Our friendship is strong With music our bond And this is generations long Harmony Get a grip get a balance Get a life Don't blame we We're you're army of lovers Treat us right Give us a song...

Oh Mister Matthews Please take down your boots And put them on Oh Mister Matthews From your vantage point Please tell us where it all went wrong Coz now there's so much to lose So much at stake Sometimes you cheat sometimes you fake What does it take? Lying in a football field It's unbelievaball And the money goes round and round and round When you kick the balls up they must come down It's unbelievaball Monsieur Platini Tell me have all your childhood dreams come true? Monsieur Platini I'll bet you a year's wagaes against a brand new school Coz now there's so much to lose So much at stake Sometimes you cheat sometimes you fake What does it take? Dying in a football field? It's unbelievaball...

Medicine 04:20
I can't make you change your mind It's not as if you gotta cast aside all your ideals It's just a case of living In this world in this timezone Leave behind a self No-one else knows I'm not saying it's an easy thing to do But you gotta take your medicine I'm not trying to score some points Or win a game But you're living in another world Times change You try so hard to stay the same But you gotta take your medicine Stop looking for someone else that you can blame I can't make you change your friends Loyalty in spite of old regrets All your demons Vicariously living great succes Popularity All that died in you with the 70s I'm not saying it's an easy thing to do... I can't make you change your fate The clock is ticking Will it stop before it's too late I'm not saying it's an easy thing to do... I can't make you change

Has it really been so long? Seems like yesterday that we were young But we've worn these shoes so long Old's more comfortable than ay new But that's the point That's why we meet It's been years since we all lived on the same old street But there's something strong That built these bonds That's the point That's why we meet It's been years since our hearts skipped to a single beat But there's something strong That built these bonds Years have been kind Fewer scars than laughter lines You've weathered well A friend can tell One more stroy one more song One night each year It goes on and on and on But that's the point That's why we meet It's been years since we all lived on the same old street But there's something strong That built these bonds That's the point That's why we meet It's been years since our hearts skipped to a single beat But there's something strong That built these bonds But that's the point That's why we meet It's been years
