On the bridge
03:47
|
|||
See him fall first off of the bridge
She was ill, I did not expect
Just a dream but it came true
Feel the pain and let the spirit through
We've all got to get through this hell,hell,hell
Help me i'm just hangin' on
Be there for me
Help you, know my right from wrong
I'll be there for you
Everything will be alright
A tired maxim
We can learn from our dear lost friends
Wicks to burn but the flame stays in the end
Teleport from one place to the next
The soul remains, it's all that we have left
We've all got to get through this hell,hell,hell
Help me i'm just hangin' on
Be there for me
Help you, know my right from wrong
I'll be there for you
Everything will be alright
I will try to survive and so will you
I will try to survive and so will you
I will try to survive and so will you

Comfort
00:45
|

Comfort, yes he brings me comfort
That's why I always sing about him
Now like a warm fuzzy blanket wrapped around my soul,my soul
Comfort, oh comfort, oh comfort, oh

Moody
03:01
|
|||
A bit moody would underestimate it
Sometimes I can be a little shit
And now i'm champing at the bit
But getting tired i'll admit
And when there's nowhere else to go
I'll start it fast and take it slow
Oh no!
And when you're all just cooried in
You don't know where to begin
Oh no!
A little decorum wouldn't go a miss
And so i've lost it now I guess
Putting things back in their place
Try to hide my worried face
And when there's nowhere else to go
I'll start it fast and take it slow
Oh no!
And when you're all just cooried in
You don't know where to begin
Oh no!
And when there's nowhere else to go
I'll start it fast and take it slow
Oh no!
And when you're all just cooried in
You don't know where to begin
Oh no!
Oh Oh oh oh

What am I doing?
02:35
|
|||
What am I doing? Why am I here?
Why am I crippled now with fear?
What can I do? What can I say?
Feel like my head's stuck out a train window
Losing sight of what i've become
I know i'll never get to number one but
Won't you come along with me?
We'll sing some songs and hug the trees
And everything will feel like new, so
Won't you come along with me?
Why am I searching through my brain?
To find another dull refrain
How can I feel? How can I fall?
And when I land i'll save us all
These delusions aren't healthy one bit
But I guess I don't give a shit so
Won't you come along with me?
We'll sing some songs and hug the trees
And everything will feel like new, so
Won't you come along with me?
What am I doing?
And why you doin' it with me?
Won't you come along with me?
We'll sing some songs and hug the trees
And everything will feel like new, so
Won't you come along with me?
Won't you come along with me?
We'll sing some songs and hug the trees
And everything will feel like new, so
Won't you come along with me?

The future
03:27
|
|||
What does the future hold?
The wind it blows so cold
My loneliness is calling me
We'll walk it hand in hand
Not yet a broken man
My emptiness is pulling me
I will take my...
Time is running out for us
The system has beat us up
But my glass is half full
There's not a chance in hell
To stop that ringing bell
Unless we pull together now
I will hold out now
Change the future so look to the past
Change the future so look to the past
Change the future so look to the past
Change the future so look to the past
Change the future so look to the past
Change the future so look to the past
Change the future so look to the past
Change the future so look to the past
Change the future so look to the past
Change the future so look to the past
Change the future so look to the past
Change the future so look to the past
Change the future so look to the past
Change the future so look to the past
Change the future so look to the past
Change the future so look to the past

To meet you
02:34
|
|||
Roll out the bunting and shout from the hills
I'm coming to meet you
Roll out the bunting and take all your pills
I'm coming to greet you
But 'til then
I guess it just depends
Get a round in and fist pump the air
I'm coming to meet you
I'm so excited I could lose all my hair
My friend I beseech you
Please turn up
I'm tired of being alone
'Cos it's the same old story
And i'm tired of myself
I need a little one plus one
'Cos life is boring
If you're left on the shelf
I need a little harmless fun
Don't you know?
You gotta take it slow
'Cos it's the same old story
And i'm tired of myself
I need a little one plus one
'Cos life is boring
If you're left on the shelf
I need a little harmless fun
'Cos it's the same old story
And i'm tired of myself
I need a little one plus one
'Cos life is boring
If you're left on the shelf
I need a little harmless fun
I wonder if you could be the one
I sound too much like Mark Corrigan

My favourite things
03:54
|
|||
Here are some of my favourite things
The things that make me start to sing
All that music and all those friends
The kind of twats on which you can depend, oh!
And when I get so sad
I think of all these things
My favourite things don't go away
You make me feel more than okay
My favourite things you know i'll miss you when you're gone
My favourite things
My favourite things
My favourite things
And in this weird and morbid space
It's good to see your smiley face
And even though i'm all alone
Don't feel it with you on my phone
And when I get so sad
I think of all these things
My favourite things don't go away
You make me feel more than okay
My favourite things you know i'll miss you when you're gone
My favourite things
My favourite things
My favourite things
My favourite things don't go away
You make me feel more than okay
My favourite things you know i'll miss you when you're gone
My favourite things
My favourite things

Tomorrow will be colder
03:26
|
|||
And everytime my misery confounds
It buries me six feet underground
And I am lost without you by my side
The happiness my soul has been denied
Tomorrow will be colder
Just like my icy heart
Tomorrow i'll get older
And then i'll fall apart
And the flowers they are dying
Just like my soul inside
All the time I have is just a waste
You left me with this cold and bitter taste
My broken wings will not let me escape
I've given everything that you can take
Tomorrow will be colder
Just like my icy heart
Tomorrow i'll get older
And then i'll fall apart
And the flowers they are dying
Just like my soul inside
Tomorrow will be colder
Just like my icy heart
Tomorrow i'll get older
And then i'll fall apart
And the flowers they are dying
Just like my soul inside
Tomorrow will be colder
Just like my icy heart
Tomorrow i'll get older
And then i'll fall apart
And the flowers they are dying
Just like my soul inside

Alien loneliness
02:18
|
|||
I want to be alone
Just to be on my own
I'm dying for solitude
I'm lying now
You see I really want
Human kindness and a human touch
I'm not longing for my home
A stranger breaking on the cusp
My solitude won't be here
Be here for long
i'm sinking in the mire
What's going on?
Oh what's going on?
So alone for too long
You see I really want
Human kindness and a human touch
I'm not longing for my home
A stranger breaking on the cusp
You see I really want
Human kindness and a human touch
I'm not longing for my home
A stranger breaking on the cusp
You see I really want
Human kindness and a human touch
I'm not longing for my home
A stranger breaking on the cusp

Grapes

This is a song about grapes
I don't know why I don't know why
This is a song about grapes
I cannot lie I cannot lie
There's too many songs about hate
So this is a song about grapes
Ah Ah
Why do you do these things to me?
Ah why do you do these things to me?
Things to me...
This is a song about grapes
I don't know why I don't know why
This is a song about grapes
I cannot lie I cannot lie
There's too many songs about hate
So this is a song about grapes
Ah Ah
Why do you do these things to me?
Things to me...

Useless me
02:28
|

Useless me so worried and so feckless
Useless me so stupid and so reckless
Useless me don't know what i'm doing anymore
I feel i've lost my sense of fun
Won't you fire me into the sun
Useless me where did all my hope go?
Useless me have to say I don't know
Useless me don't know why i'm trying anymore
I feel i've lost my sense of fun
Won't you fire me into the sun
'Cos i'm useless yeah i'm useless oh i'm useless aha!
'Cos i'm useless yeah i'm useless oh i'm useless aha!
Sometimes it doesn't seem so real
Sometimes I don't know how to feel

Tangerine and black
03:06

Sometimes i've got to get away
Gotta escape or i'm gonna break
And when the crowd they start to sway
It's magical
Everyday is Saturday
'Cos it's you, you, you, you pull me through
Tangerine and black
'Cos it's you, you, you, you pull me through
Tangerine and black
And when the noise it gets so loud
It's happiness
And when the team have done you proud
It's the best
Everyday is Saturday
Cos it's you, you, you, you pull me through
Tangerine and black
Cos it's you, you, you, you pull me through
Tangerine and black
Cos it's you, you, you, you pull me through
Tangerine and black
Cos it's you, you, you, you pull me through
Tangerine and black

Not gonna stop us now
02:55
|
|||
They tried to close it down
And knock it to the ground
But they did fail
We rallied round
And spirit found them at a loss
We hate the powers that be
We even got on ITV
Our community fought them and we won
A rollercoaster ride and a roundabout
The magic that we did let out
All for one and one for all it was
Not gonna stop us now
Not gonna stop us now
Not gonna stop us now at all
Not gonna stop us now
Not gonna stop us now
Not gonna stop us now at all
They tried with all their tricks
Those dirty rotten tory pricks
They failed
More than just a learned place
A happy and a friendly space as well
We hate the powers that be
We even got on ITV
Our community fought them and we won
A rollercoaster ride and a roundabout
The magic that we did let out
All for one and one for all it was
Not gonna stop us now
Not gonna stop us now
Not gonna stop us now at all
Not gonna stop us now
Not gonna stop us now
Not gonna stop us now at all
Or any other day
I'd like to see them try
I'd like to see them fry
This is the reason why

At once
02:48
|
|||
All my birthdays would come at once
If you would only take a chance
And we can lay down and dance
Like lovers do
In the middle of this hell
I could cast on you a spell
Everything would go so well
With me and you
The emptiness is vast
And now we're in the dark
I hope this feeling lasts
And you have left your mark
I don't wanna be far away from you
All at once my feelings make me blue
I don't want to be without you yeah
I don't want emotions misconstrued
I just want to be right beside you
All at once my world is clear
I don't wanna be far away from you
All at once my feelings make me blue
I don't want to be without you yeah
I don't want emotions misconstrued
I just want to be right beside you
All at once my world is clear
Clear clear clear

The help I need
02:55
|

The help I need to rid me of disease
Is friends like you and you
And if you please i'll take it or i'll leave
As i'm prone to do
And in the end the Doctor really matters
But not as much as you lot do
Now I cannot see
There's mythology
Set me free
ignore me
I cannot survive
Sittin' alone i'm so peaceful in my home
But only because of you
I shouldn't moan
Together but alone
All I need is you
Sittin' alone i'm so peaceful in my home
But only because of you
I shouldn't moan
Together but alone
All I need is you
Sittin' alone i'm so peaceful in my home
But only because of you
I shouldn't moan
Together but alone
All I need is you
You
You

Cheeseburger
02:40
|

Why did we go back that day?
When we were skiving away
We didn't know what to say
The truth was hard to replace
But that was the best cheeseburger I ever had
Why did we go back to school
When we were breakin' the rules?
We were just young silly fools
When we were breakin' the rules
Why did we go back to school
When we were breakin' the rules?
We were just young silly fools
When we were breakin' the rules
I tried to lie through my teeth
But my story was hard to believe
I went home to some grief
Put on a monitor sheet
What was the point of that?
But that was the best cheeseburger I ever had
Why did we go back to school
When we were breakin' the rules?
We were just young silly fools
When we were breakin' the rules
Why did we go back to school
When we were breakin' the rules?
We were just young silly fools
When we were breakin' the rules
Why did we go back to school
When we were breakin' the rules?
We were just young silly fools
When we were breakin' the rules
Why did we go back to school
When we were breakin' the rules?
We were just young silly fools
When we were breakin' the rules
Why did we go back to school
When we were breakin' the rules?
We were just young silly fools

Unrequited love
02:43
|

Unrequited love I just can't get enough
Of that pain in my heart as I start to fall apart
Like a kick in the bollocks from some Docs
unreserved pain is my middle name
Like going under the knife with your eyes open wide
This is my reality
Sometimes I don't know how to feel
I don't know how to react at all
You may wonder what is his deal?
I'm a loner in a crowded room
Unrequited love I just can't open up
'Bout the pain in my heart like a stab from a dart
What a wonderful world
Unrequited love i'm always thinking of
The choices I make as I put on the brakes
'Cos everything is so tough
Sometimes I don't know how to feel
I don't know how to react at all
You may wonder what is his deal?
I'm a loner in a crowded room
Sometimes I don't know how to feel
I don't know how to react at all
You may wonder what is his deal?
I'm a loner in a crowded room
I'm a loner in a crowded room
I know i'm just a fool

Two sides to every story
02:44
|

Two sides to every story
The chapters they always change
My own little allegory
Hidden beneath my name
I wanna be with the fish in the sea
Happy and never drowning
I wanna be shaded by trees
With my feet on the grass
'Cos there's two sides to every story
But my book it stays the same
There's two sides to every story
The future will know your name
Two sides to every story
A plot twist a moral an end
A life filled with music and worry
Wanting to buck the trend
I wanna be with the fish in the sea
Happy and never drowning
I wanna be shaded by trees
With my feet on the grass
'Cos there's two sides to every story
But my book it stays the same
There's two sides to every story
The future will know your name
What can we be?
What can we do?
learn to breathe
Always be true
'Cos there's two sides to every story
But my book it stays the same
There's two sides to every story
The future will know your name
'Cos there's two sides to every story
But my book it stays the same
There's two sides to every story
The future will know your name

The clown
02:30
|

He's the clown we forgot to burn down
A diatribe from a non-existent town
Shut your mouth and go back to sleep
I don't wanna hear you speak
You're just a useless piece of shit
He thinks he's on some noble crusade
It sounds like he's full of hate
I wanna punch him in the face
Wouldn't that be so fuckin' great
He's such a useless piece of shit
What a clown his jokes aren't funny
Brings me down
What a clown i'd bet money
He'll die out
His pus filled heart is out of touch
His useless words they start to rust
Decent people of the world unite
Against this dickhead's shite
He's such a waste of fuckin' space
What a clown his jokes aren't funny
Brings me down
What a clown i'd bet money
He'll die out
I want him gone
Fire him into the sun (that's so apt)
Brings me down
He brings me down
What a clown i'd bet money
He'll die out

Sometimes
02:08
|

Sometimes I think about you
Sometimes you think about me
Sometimes I start to doubt you
That you would ever think about me
I wanna lie down with you
And do the things that humans do
I wanna watch the the sun go up
And read cliches 'til we've had enough
Sometimes I dream about you
It's a shame when I wake up
I wanna hear you screamin' for me
Lose ourselves in lust and love
I wanna lie down with you
And do the things that humans do
I wanna watch the the sun go up
And read cliches 'til we've had enough
I wanna lie down with you
And do the things that humans do
I wanna watch the the sun go up
And read cliches 'til we've had enough
I wanna lie down with you
And do the things that humans do
I wanna watch the the sun go up
And read cliches 'til we've had enough

You're the reason that I started the band
You're the reason that I hurt my left hand
You're the reason that I sing so loud today
And everyone knows
How the chorus it goes
It just gets louder and louder today
'Cos Frank Black is back oh yeah!
Frank Black is back oh yeah!
What do you think about that baby? oh!
You're the reason why my life isn't bland
You're the reason that they understand
You're the reason that I don't feel lost today
And everyone knows
How the chorus it goes
It just gets louder and louder today
'Cos Frank Black is back oh yeah!
Frank Black is back oh yeah!
What do you think about that baby? oh!

Had a good time in the middle of a crisis
Sometimes it's all you need
With my family in the middle of a crisis
Gonna get me through
I'll always eat with you
I'll always eat with you
I'll always eat with you
Had a good time once in a while you should try this
If it's possible
Across the water in the middle of a crisis
Keepin' me sane
I'll always eat with you
I'll always eat with you
I'll always eat with you
Had a good time in the middle of a crisis
Sometimes it's all you need
With my family in the middle of a crisis
Gonna get me through

You stole a piece of me
01:49
|

I can't look at myself today
Don't capture me
All these memories get thrown away
I don't wanna see
Now my soul is caught in time
I don't want it now
It's yours now it's not mine
Flying through the clouds
You stole a piece of me now I want it back
You stole a piece of me now I want it back
You stole a piece of me now I want it back
You stole my soul
I don't like what you see outside
Or the inside too
I need to find a place to hide
To get away from you
You stole a piece of me now I want it back
You stole a piece of me now I want it back
You stole a piece of me now I want it back
You stole my soul
You stole a piece of me now I want it back
You stole a piece of me now I want it back
You stole a piece of me now I want it back
You stole a piece of me now I want it back
You stole a piece of me now I want it back

Winter in my brain
03:50
|

Winter in my brain
I'll never be the same
It's not true at all
Numb like novocaine
Not crashing like a train
The pain aint over
And i'm never going back
I felt so cold and dead
No notes floating 'round my head
I'd rather be with you instead
Than have winter in my brain
Winter in my brain
But the Summer's back again
Melt away the ice
But the sun it burns too much
And now i'm losing touch
Higher than the sky
And i'm never going back
I felt so cold and dead
No notes floating 'round my head
I'd rather be with you instead
Than have winter in my brain
I'm weak
I'm lost
I'm strong
Ah Ah
I felt so cold and dead
No notes floating 'round my head
I'd rather be with you instead
Than have winter in my brain
I felt so cold and dead
No notes floating 'round my head
I'd rather be with you instead
Than have winter in my brain

Holiday

Travelling on a holiday
The car it overflows
Travelling on a holiday
Where ever it may go
Break away from all ourselves
And everything we know
Travelling on a holiday
But this car it kinda blows
All excited in the back
The noise would tell you so
Asking if we are there yet?
The answer is still no
No planes no trains no boats at all
This shit car is all you need
Travelling on a holiday
You and you and me
We reach our destination
There's screaming at the back
Mum and dad are losing patience
And that is just a fact
Travelling on holiday
Fond memories I have
It's more than just a journey
It's the spirit that we had

You could be the one
Just like I sang before
But i'm wonderin'
What's the meaning of it all
But I guess we'll have to work it out
And wait for the clouds to lift
We could waste our time
In the best way
We could come alive
But I guess we'll have to work it out
And wait for the clouds to lift
Anything is possible
For the reckless little fool
Me and you what's to lose?
Everything can be new
All those words can be true
I just wanna get to know you better
Anything is possible
For the reckless little fool
Me and you what's to lose?
Everything can be new
All those words can be true
I just wanna get to know you better
I just wanna get to know you better
I just wanna get to know you better

Walk a mile in their shoes
You're sure to feel the blues
Be grateful for what you have
Think what you say and do
Don't wanna preach
Don't wanna whine
But I guess it's time you learn
You're one lucky swine
Walk a mile don't complain
Think of this little refrain
Be thankfuk be kind
Then do it all again
Don't wanna preach
Don't wanna whine
But I guess it's time you learn
You're one lucky swine
Don't wanna preach
Don't wanna whine
But I guess it's time you learn
You're one lucky swine
You're one lucky swine
