Get Your Way Lyrics

Dinner at eight, that sounds fine,
I suppose that means we'll turn up 'round nine.
Bought a bunch of flowers, just for her,
She says the burden's on the receiver.

I opened the door and you walked in,
(Sniff) The scent of wild jasmine.
The room, seemed to freeze in time,
My regular table will be just fine.

Radiant and elegant, you might be
But your concentration is so go-lightly
Both of your eyes reflecting the moon,
You really think you own the room.

CHORUS:
So What Game Shall We Play Today?
How About The One Where You Don't Get Your Way?
But Even If You Do,
That's Okay.
So What Game Shall We Play Today?
How About The One Where You Don't Get Your Way?
But Even If You Do,
That's Okay.

Try to pick it up, reading the signs,
It's turning out to be a real good time,
And who'd have thought that entertainment,
Lies in the winter of your discontent.

Now, sit at the table, face to face,
Queen takes pawn, check or checkmate!
I feel your foot brush against my leg,
I'm not that easily led.

You flutter your eyes and you toss your hair,
I have to say that it is kind of unfair,
Let me tell you baby now what's in store,
You win the battle, but I'll win the war!

CHORUS

This has been fun, I suppose,
Although my feelings are all juxtaposed,
But truth be told, I'm as fickle as hell,
But gentlemen never kiss and tell!

CHORUS

London Skies Lyrics

Paint a picture,
Clear cut and pale on a cold London day,
Shapes and cool light wander the streets like an army of strays,
On a cold London Day.

Chorus:
Will you let me romanticize,
The beauty in our London Skies,
You know the sunlight always shines,
Behind the clouds of London Skies.

Patient moments you chill to the bone under infinite greys,
Vision hindered mist settling low like a ghostly ballet,
On a cold London Day.

Chorus

Bridge:
Nothing is certain except everything you know can change,
you worship the sun but now,
can you fall for the rain...

Chorus

Photograph Lyrics

Her name was written on a photograph,
right next to her red, sunburnt face,
it all had happened in that long tall grass,
about a mile from her old place,
and I can't remember how it started and if it lasted that day in the sun.

We said that we were going to study hard,
we held our books instead of hands,
she held a blanket over cans of beer,
I can't deny I was so full of fear.

It's just another story caught up in another photograph I found.
and it seems like another person lived that life a great many years ago from now,

When I look back on my ordinary, ordinary life,
I see so much magic, though I missed it at the time.
when I look back on my ordinary ordinary, ordinary life,
I see so much magic, though I missed it at the time.

And there's the first time that I tried that stuff,
I think I look a little green,
I remember throwing up behind a bush,
and I found it hard to use my feet,
and who's that easily led little boy who's really off his head?

It was the same night that I kissed that girl,
the tall one with the auburn hair,
I remember laughing coz to kiss me,
she had to sit down on a chair!
she tasted like the schnapps she'd drunk,
and the cigarette she'd stolen from her mum.

And it's just another story caught up in another photograph I found.

When I look back on my ordinary, ordinary life,
I see so much magic, though I missed it at the time.
When I look back on my ordinary ordinary, ordinary life,
I see so much magic, though I missed it at the time.

I Only Have Eyes For You Lyrics

Are the stars out tonight
I don’t know if it’s cloudy or bright
’Cause I only have eyes for you, dear
My love must be some kind of blind love
I don’t see anybody but you
The moon may be high
But I can’t see a thing in the sky
’Cause I only have eyes for you
And dear, I wonder if you find love
An optical illusion, too

I don’t know if we’re in a garden
Or on a crowded avenue
You are here, so am I
Maybe millions of people go by
But they all disappear from view
I only have eyes for you
My love must be some kind of blind love
I don’t see anybody but you


Nothing I Do Lyrics

We were so drunk last night
We had that stupid fight
You called me a useless selfish prick
So I'm in a fix right now
And we'll measure the truth somehow
Love is a funny thing to me

Then you stormed out and grabbed your coat
While slamming shut the door
A ruthless move so cold you left your keys inside the door, oh...

Can nothing I do make you happy anymore
Nothin’ I say put a smile onto your face
Can nothing I say bring us back together
Nothing I do put a smile onto your face

Well okay...

Next day I called you back
And you called me a stupid twat
And then you were crying on the phone
You sounded so upset, you said
I wasn't the man you'd met
3 years and 7 months ago

I pleaded with her take me back
I'll change my sorry ways
So tell me why mysteriously I’m annoyed instead of shamed
Ohh

Can nothing I do make you happy anymore
Can nothin' I say put a smile onto your face
Nothing I do bring us back together
Nothing I say put a smile onto your face

Mmmm, yeahhh

I’m poundering it all after that call
I think it is clear
I am here, you're from another stratosphere
Oh, now all the things she said they went around my head
And come out my ear, and not before long
This stubborn soul thinks his done no wrong

As when the questions flut around my head like butterflies
My head spins at reflecting on another loves demise, ohhh

Can nothing I do make you happy anymore
Nothin’ I say put a smile onto your face
Can nothing I say bring us back together
Nothing I say put a smile onto your face, ohhh

All together now... ah 1,2,3...

[Whistles to fade]


Mind Trick Lyrics

I missed the opportunity
To get you babe to stay with me
Never thought, I'd regret the excuses that I've made
Like a song, it will fade

If there's music in the night
And it's really, really right
It's the only thing I need
It intoxicates your mind
All your troubles left behind
So come on and take my lead
It’s not just me who feels it
Music plays a mind trick
Watch me forget about missing you

So I put my feelings out to dry
Love, one day again
I'll have to try
Falling out, making up
It seems such a silly game
Why do I never gain

If there's music in the night
And it's really, really right
It's the only thing I need
It intoxicates your mind
All your troubles left behind
So come on and take my lead
It’s not just me who feels it
Music plays a mind trick
Watch me forget about missing you

Na na na's

If there's music in the night
And it's really, really right
It's the only thing I need
It intoxicates your mind
All your troubles left behind
So come on and take my lead
It’s not just me who feels it
Music plays a mind trick
Watch me forget about missing you

21st Century Kid Lyrics

There's maybe a way I can tell you
Cos with everyday things continue
To get more compromised
So who will fantasise
A new generation politicised

When things are done in our own name
Are we as much to blame
Now it's become clear to me
But only lately
And the ground is removed underneath

Shout it from the brink
You’re louder than you think

21st century kid surrounded by illusion and confusion
So maybe if you're holding out for the truth now
Could it be the greatest weapon
Could it be the greatest weapon
Your weapon

Nothing is certain except a memory
And that's soon washed away by a low sea
Now sit yourself down my one
And see what you become
Ignoring a smouldering gun

The white dove's flown
D'ya think we're on our own

21st century kid surrounded by illusion and confusion
So maybe if you're holding out for the truth now
Could it be the greatest weapon
21st century kid surrounded by illusion and confusion
So maybe if you're holding out for the truth now
Could it be the greatest weapon
Could it be the greatest weapon
Your weapon


I'm Glad There Is You Lyrics

Said I many times, love is illusion
A feeling result of confusion
With knowing smile and blasé sigh
A cynical so and so, am I

I feel so sure, so positive
So utterly unchangeably certain
Though I never was aware of loving you
'Til I suddenly realised there was love in you and oh...

In this world of ordinary people
Extraordinary people
I'm glad there is you

In this world of overrated pleasures
And underrated treasures
I'm glad there is you

I live to love
I love to live with you beside me
This role, so new
I'll muddle through with you
If you'll guide me through

In this world where many play at love
And hardly any stay in love
I'm glad there is you

More than ever, I'm glad there is you

Said I many times, love is illusion...

Oh God Lyrics

I know it's been a while since I spoke to you
Maybe you're the one who makes the winds blow
Lookin' at the stars with no explanation
We contemplate as kings and civil men on trial
Our little worlds fragile

Oh God can you tell us when its going to start
Maybe its not just down to you
oh god can we win back what we have lost
To who's the lost resort, Oh God

Tumbling towards unclear destinations
Do they wash away the flames the wind and the searing rains
As our powers interchange

Oh God can you tell us when its going to start
Maybe its not just down to you
Oh God can we win back what we have lost
To who's the lost resort, oh God

Oh God can you tell us when its going to stop
Maybe it's not just down to you
Oh God can we win back what we have lost
To who's the lost resort


Catch The Sun Lyrics

Every day it comes to this
Catch the things you might have missed
You say, get back to yesterday
I ain't ever going back
Back to the place that I can't stand
But I miss the way you lie
I'm always misunderstood
Pulled apart and ripped in two
But I miss the way you lie

Catch the sun, before it's gone
Here it comes, up in smoke and gone
Catch the sun, it never comes
Cry in the sand, lost in the fire

I never really understood
Why I didn't feel so good
But I miss the way you lie
I've always been up and down
Never wanted to hit the ground
But I miss the way you lie

Catch the sun, before it's gone
Here it comes, up in smoke and gone
Catch the sun, it never comes
Cry in the sand, lost in the fire

7 Days To Change Your Life Lyrics

7 Days To Change Your Life
Just one local call and you'll see
A Happy path through life, not for free
Little bit fat, you can't get a girl
Short on cash, I'll change your world
The only way now is straight up
You're deepest despair, I'll make it stop
Just 19.95 on major credit cards
And You'll stay alive, you'll go far
In just 7 short days, you'll change your life
All of your innocence found
You'll even lose a few pounds
See yourself making a mint
Quality time with your kids
Send me your money and I'll change your life
I know sometimes your life is a bitch
So come purchase my easy-fix
I've been there myself, sad, fat and bald
Soon with my help you'll have it all
I'll build you back up for the fight
You'll be so wound up, your stomach's tight
You're the life of the party, get yourself laid
Surely you'll trust me once I've been paid
In just 7 short days, you'll change your life
All of your innocence found

See yourself making a mint
Quality time with your kids
Send me your money and I'll change your life
So many years ago I was so low and lonely and depressed, I hadn't left my flat in weeks and never even bothered getting dressed and I was smoking weed and I was in a mess
And that's when it happened
So I opened up the blind to let the light on my sorry life, I dreamed about success, the money, Moses(?), women, cars and even wives and they would always tend to my every need
So do you see what you can be
Baby, when you're with me
In just 7 short days, you'll change your life
All of your innocence found
You'll even lose a few pounds
See yourself making a mint
Quality time with your kids
Send me your money and I'll change your life


Our Day Will Come Lyrics

Our day will come
And we'll have everything.
We'll share the joy
Falling in love can bring.

No one can tell me
That I'm too young to know
Cause I love you so
And you love me, love me.

Our day will come
If we just wait a while.
No tears for us
Think love and wear a smile.

And our dreams are meant to be
Because we'll always stay
In love this way
Our day will come.

(Piano Solo)

Our day will come
If we just wait a while.
And no tears for us
Think love and wear a smile.

And our dreams are meant to be
Because we'll always stay
In love this way.
Our day, our day, oh daaaaay, will come

Back To The Ground Lyrics

Lately, I've let myself go
I've been screening the calls
From my friends to my foes
Although I've been weak
Far for so very long

I gotta get myself
I gotta get myself
I gotta get myself
Back to the ground

Sultry siren messed with my song
I'm gonna send her back
To where she belongs
I keep my enemies
Much, much, much too close

I gotta get myself
I gotta get myself
I gotta get myself
Back to the ground

When you're attracted to the danger
And tasting every flavour
Then bring it on and bleed yourself dry
Reality is twisted
Your mind's getting shoplifted
Is there underneath an innocent guy?
So clearly, I've let myself go
So does admission take my sins to a new low?
And when you're way down there
You'll find all those old friends you used to know
And they're gonna help ya
Get yourself back to the ground


Wifey Lyrics

Mother told me don’t look for love
But when I find it just be patient babe
And then my eyes are closing so I guess I have to wait.
I guess I have to wait.
Late at night, I’m thinking of her, don’t know if it sounds right
I don’t know what she looks like, but she’s my babe.
Hell if I will be true
Just as true as God writes, I promise to be her sunlight
Til my dying day.

Wifey where are you,
Wifey where are you,
Wifey where are you
Here I am

So maybe you think, I’m going out of my mind now
Maybe my mind is going out of me
And then my eyes are closing so just how am I to see?

Wifey where are you,
Wifey where are you,
Wifey where are you
Here I am

Late at night, I’m thinking of her but don’t know if it sounds right
I don’t know what she looks like, but she’s my babe.
Hell if I will be true
Just as true as God writes, I promise to be her sunlight
Until my dying day.

My Yard Lyrics

So hail a taxi cab and come around here,
and I will meet you right outside,
I got some DVD's and a couple of beers,
if you want to we can stay up all night.

It's nothin' fancy just a little couch an me,
and conversation for your mind,
so let's explore all the possiblities of the things we both talked about - last time...

So take a trip to my yard,
don't you know the grass is greener on the other side.
Take a trip to my yard,
don't you know the love that you've been dreamin' of is mine?

I'll be your neighbor at the other end of town,
And the benefits you soon will find.
So let's enjoy the fact that we're on our own
And we will answer to nobody else this time.
Tonight might be nothing but the moon and me,
Any time that we take the script and flip it baby,
Take a trip to my yard.

Take a trip to my yard
Don't you know the grass is greener on the otherside?
Take a trip to my yard
Don't you know the love that you've been dreaming of is mine?
