Cool Kidz

You're on the program, not the cure
Oh your motives must be pure
You've got so much to give
All you need's another life to live
You just wanna be one of the cool kids
Take the praise, don't take the blame
It's your second favourite game
When everybody's on the make
Who gets the biggest piece of cake
You just wanna be one of the cool kids
Got it all but you still want more
Don't even know what you want it for
Got more than you'll ever need
You won't be happy till you see it bleed
You just wanna be one of the cool kids
Who wouldn't wanna be like you
Nobody tells you what to do
Nobody tells you that you're wrong
Or if they do they don't last long
You just wanna be one of the cool kids
You've got some stuff you need to sell
Yyou've got some lies you have to tell
Anybody can bought or sold
Show 'em round yourhouse of gold
You just wanna be one of the cool kids
Fake it till you make it and it's all good
See-it and-you take it just because you could
Sleep so deeply at the top of the heap
Finders keepers, losers weep
You just wanna be one of the cool kids
Forget the haters and the losers and the fakers and the flakes
Beggars can't be choosers if their belly aches
I bet the waiters in the boozers don't get the breaks
Like the users and the juicers for the difference it makes
In the back seat of a cruiser with a case of the shakes
Check the status of your bruises when the morning breaks
Later stumble through the jungle of the craters and the quakes
Nothing left but alligators in the poisoned lakes
You just wanna be one of the cool kids

There, she goes again
Bringing everybody down
She's the meanest teen there's ever been
In her Daddy's old dressing gown
She doesn't miss a thing with the overcooked eyes
Nothing's ever done she couldn't criticise
Can't ask nicely so she always cries
Her riends all need to understand that
She's the meanest in the land
She's so clever that she never gets canned
She knows what she has to do
None of that stuff needs to bother you
The TV taught her everything it knew
Her friends all mean so much to her
On the social network they prefer
Otherwise nobody would know, who they were

Jemimaville
Where time stands still
The sky is open wide, the seabirds glide
And the only thing, going out tonight is the tide
If we stepped out on the sands
And we all joined hands
Would we reach to the other side
Is there anybody there
Who's got something to share
Is there even a spirit guide
Jemimaville
Think of all the reasons
for the four different seasons in a
single solitary day
Strangers you know
Places nobody will go
Even though there's nothing in the way
Jemimaville
They're fixing up new fences
under false pretences for that
sense of security
Their locks and their chains
round their ill gotten gains
the suspense is killing me
Jemimaville

I Can't Do This
02:47
|

Wouldn't it be fabulous to grab all the tablets,
finish off the packet, pin a postit to your jacket saying
I can't do this any more
Be the hostess with the mostest to the ghosts you never processed, you just stick ' em in the kid's home I'm so sick of Stockholm syndrome
I can't do this any more
All aboard the Maybach, hosepipe tailback,
find a shady spot take a toke take a shot praying
I can't do this any more
Wouldn't it be brilliant to win about a billion,
chilling by the pool with your gooseberry fool
I can't do this any more
I can't do this any more
Finish all the liquor really scrape it off the sticker
get it framed for the wall unashamed of it all so
I can't do this any more
Sitting there in limbo, jumping out the window,
only four floors up it'd have to be abrupt but
I can't do this any more
Unexpected item advertising infinitum did the orange one incite 'em if you can't beat 'em bite 'em
I can't do this any more
Would the light be strong enough and would the drop be long enough or land with a splatter so it wouldn't really matter
I can't do this any more
I can't do this any more
I can't do this any more

Time 2 Break Out
02:38
|
|||
|
Hate to break it to you but it's time you were told
Time to be brave, time to be bold
Time to make the change, time to say goodbye
You know it's the right thing, either way you cry
Time to get moving, time to let go
Time to realise what you already know
Time to make a stand, time to be strong
Why would you let anybody string you along
Time to get away, time to cut loose
Time to forget about your lame excuse
Time to take action , time to get a grip
You're sitting on the sun deck of a sinking ship
Time to speak out, time to be tough
Time to say out loud that enough is enough
Time to go forward, time to be free
Got to be today or it never will be
Pack up your troubles, push came to shove
Time to look somewhere else for love
Got to be today, not tomorrow or tonight
Time to give it up, better hold on tight
Time to step up, time to get going
time is a river that never stops flowing
Time to decide, time to take control
Time to break out the alcohol

Dance Land

I'm just looking for improvement in my freedom of movement
Send me to dance land, send me to dance land
All I wanna do is get to danceland with you
Send me to dance land
Send me to dance land
Go get your equipment, I'll bring the shipment
Send me to dance land
Send me to dance land
Nothing to pack, no going back
Send me to dance land, send me to dance land
All you need to say is don't turn me away
Send me to dance land, send me to dance land
Don't you worry' bout the numbers not like Christopher Columbus
Send me to dance land, send me to dance land
Give some space, let me find a happy place
Send me to dance land, send me to dance land
Send me to dance land
Send me to dance land
All I want to hear is there's nothing more to fear
If there's a chance you got to take it, not everyone will make it
Send me to dance land, send me to dance land
That could be your daughter, face down in the water
Send me to dance land, send me to dance land
There's no fences there's no wall, they always have to fall
Send me to dance land, send me to dance land
Have some independence, for the sake of your descendants
Send me to dance land, send me to dance land
Send me to dance land, send me to dance land

I Think Of You
02:36
|

|
Every day, I think of you
Every day I think of you
Every day I think it might be good to get a drink
But I'll only want another if I do
I'll only want another if I do
Every time, I see your face
Every time I see your face
Every time I see you don't think about me
And I see myself sink without trace
Radio's been on for 24 hours, 24 hours a day
Broken sleep and scattered showers
January turning into May
By the time it gets to eight
By the time it gets to eight
By the time it gets to feeling no more regrets
By then it's going to be too late
Radio's been on for 24 hours, 24 hours a day
Broken sleep and scattered showers
January turning into May
Every day, I think of you
Every day I think of you

Carlton Café
02:47
|

Buspass Billy in his swivel chair
Running his hands through his what's left of his hair
The desperados in the backroom spread
Watching the needles go into the red
Listening for whatever they heard in their head
Sure in the knowledge it'll knock 'em all dead
Watch your step there's dreams where you tread
And maybe it's better to leave it unsaid
But they might as well go out for pizza instead
Cause guess who got lucky today
Guess who got lucky, guess who got lucky
Down at the Carlton Café
Go to that venue, there's love on the menu,
And guess who got lucky today
And the usual suspects arrive on their cue
The clipboard collectors and the guys on the brew
The mummies and the daddies and the divorcees
The wannabe superstars shooting the breeze
And nobody knows what they've done with the keys
They're probably hanging outside on the trees
And Jesus is down on his hands and his knees
Scraping away at the salsa and cheese
But everyone's going to do as they please
Cause guess who got lucky today

It'll Be Easy

Ghost of Xmas past, didn't it go fast, here we are at last
Ghostof Xmas now, take a Xmas bow, can it go without a row
Xmas yet to come, it's all right for some, going to be comfortably numb
What you gonna do, when the year is new, still, belonging to the crew
It'll be easy oh so easy the next time round
Saying what you feel, knowing what is real, not looking for anything to steal
Forgiving a mistake, for everybody's sake, tryna keep the promises you make
Knowing what to do, telling what is true, seeing the whole thing through
Doing it again, now becoming then, trying to remember when
It'll be easy oh so easy the next time round
Looking at the signs, I think by Valentine's, we'll be sure the sun still shines
Going by the stars, what used to be ours, maybe there's a few more hurrahs
So meet me by the dial, I'll look out for your smile, it always dissolves my denial
Doing what you do, giving me my cue, for keeping my promises to you
It'll be easy oh so easy the next time round

Tories Я Evil
02:46
|

Tories are evil, incredibly evil, it needs no explanation
Tories are evil, intensely evil know them by their reputation
Tories are evil, terribly evil they don't care about the nation
Tories are evil, immensely evil they're the worst in all creation
Sticks and stones and mobile phones, a hundred ways to hurt you
But-hold your head up high, look them in the eye, make your victimhood a virtue
Tories are evil, completely evil, they come from evil places
They gotta be evil, extremely evil, to have such airs and graces
Tories are evil, totally evil, you can see it in their evil faces
Tories are evil, utterly evil, it's the saddest of cases
Imps, and trolls they live in holes, they jump out when you least expect it
But don't be shocked, just get them blocked, you'll be completely unaffected
Tories are evil, incredibly evil, the green eyed monster's got 'em
Tories are evil, intensely evil , it's not difficult to spot 'em
They gotta be evil, terribly evil, from the top down to the bottom
Tories are evil, immensely evil, just like flies you've got to swat 'em

Only Thing To Do
03:26
|
|||
|
Everybody tells you
Everybody tells you
Everybody tells you not to cry
One mistake I might have made was being too afraid
To ask myself why I stayed
Without a word being said, my heart knew before my head,
Trying to tell me love was dead
Everybody tells you not to cry, you can do it if you don't ask why
Tell yourself until you think it's true, try lying to yourself, what a stupid thing to do
Sometimes it's the only thing to do
People say, don't be sad
Look at all the joy you've had
Then you won't feel so bad
But it's hard when you understand
How everything you thought you planned
Was like a palace made of sand
Finally the penny dropped
Bubbles of illusion popped
The clock of love had long since stopped
Suddenly it all made sense
You started living in the present tense
It isn't hard to tell the difference
Everybody tells you
Everybody tells you
Everybody tells you not to cry

Andrea the Android
04:01
|

Andrea the android had no feeling
Of sorrow, joy, of pleasure or of pain
She didn't find the thought of love appealing
Because she had an artificial brain
Michael was a roving robot vacuum
Whose only job was picking up the mess
Andrea saw him busy in the back room
And fell in love forevernone the less
Oh her heart was all electric and her soul was solid state
Her hair was finest polypropylene
She looked like Cinderella, but had nobody to tell her
Never give your love to a machine
Michael was a simple robot cleaner
That rolled around the floor collecting dirt
He acted like he'd never even seen her
Which even for an android, must have hurt
Andrea found him at her feet one fateful day
And she wanted so to tell him how she felt
Michael bounced against her high heeled boots and simply turned away
And Andrea's mind began to melt
Now if you see Andrea the Android
She doesn't seem to be completely there
Her 16-bit emotion chip was destroyed
She's-beyond, economic repair
All she ever thinks about is Michael
And how their love was never meant to be
And maybe when the robots get recycled
They'll be together for eternity
