Reward

Bless my cotton socks, I'm in the news
The king sits on his face buttons all askew
All wrapped up the same (same)
All wrapped up the same (same)
They can't have it
You can't have it
I can't have it too
Until I learn to accept my reward

Princes stand in queues they stand accused
Death in solitude like Howard Hughes
All wrapped up the same (same)
All wrapped up the same (same)
Silence has it
Arrogance has it
I can have it ooh
Until I learn to accept my reward

Suddenly it struck me very clear
Suddenly it struck me very clean
All wrapped up the same
All wrapped up the same
You can't have it
I can't have it too
Until I learn to accept my reward

Until I learn to accept my reward

Until I learn to accept my reward

Until I learn to accept my reward

Until I learn to accept my
I learn to accept my
I learn to accept my reward!

Promised You a Miracle

Promised you a miracle
Belief is a beauty thing
Promises, promises
As golden days break wondering
Chance
As love takes a train
Summer breeze and brilliant light
Only love she sees
He controls on love
Love sails to a new life
Promised you a miracle
Belief is a beauty thing
Promises, promises
As golden days break wondering
Only love she sees
He controls on love
Life throws a curve
Everything is possible
With promises
Everything is possible, oh
I promised you a miracle
Belief is a beauty thing
Promises, promises
As golden days break wondering
Chance
Reflects on them a while
Love screams so quietly
Slipping back on golden times
Breathing with sweet memories

I promised you a miracle
Belief is a beauty thing
Promises, promises
As golden days break wondering
Only love she sees
He controls on love
Life throws a curve
Everything is possible
In the game of life
Everything is possible
Chance
Lost pearls of great price
Take care of family
Only aches for love
Love waits for fame
In chance, in chance, they'll see
I promised you a miracle
Belief is a beauty thing
Promises, promises
As golden days break wondering
Only love she sees
He controls on love
Life throws a curve
Everything is possible
In the game of life
A burning dream
You can be Queen
Everything is possible...

Never Say Never

If time itself was his demeanor
There'd be no sunlight or a glimmer
Of sunlight landin' on the street
Some say girls must be discreet
Some say girls must be discreet
Nursing their fathers locked inside
They masqueraded as his bride
I might like you better
If we slept together
I might like you better
If we slept together
I might like you better
If we slept together
But there's somethin'
In your eyes that says
Maybe that's never
Never say never
They slump by the courthouse with windburn skin

That man could give a fuck
About the grin on your face
As you walk by, randy as a goat
He's sleepin' on papers
But he'd be warm in your coat
I might like you better
If we slept together
I might like you better
If we slept together
I might like you better
If we slept together
But there's somethin'
In your eyes that says
Maybe that's never
Never say never
There's no easy way to lose your sight
On the street, on the stairs
Who's on your flight
Old couple walks by, as ugly as sin
But he's got her, she's got him
I might like you better
If we slept together
I might like you better
If we slept together
I might like you better
If we slept together
I might like you better
If we slept together
I might like you better
If we slept together
But there's somethin'
In your eyes that says
Maybe that's never
Never say never
I might like you better
If we slept together
I might like you better
If we slept together
I might like you better
If we slept together

Call Me

Face to face

My reflection in your eyes

I was scared to say too much

Perfect strangers in perfect worlds apart

Almost close enough to touch

Staring at my shoes

Feeling so confused

Shot down without a gun

Victim of a hit and run

Won't you...

Call me - call me

No time to hesitate - we must communicate

Call me - call me

Won't you call this number nowwwww

Mesmerised

I go back to where we met

A reconstruction of the crime

I can't track you down

Nowhere to be found

Now my one shot at success

Is the power of the press

Won't you...

Call me - call me

No time to hesitate - we must communicate

Call me - call me

Won't you call this number nowwwww

Worlds apart - we are worlds apart

Watch this space

There's a message here for you

No need to read between the lines

I am inside out

There can be no doubt

I want you and no-one else

Please identify yourself

Call me - call me

No time to hesitate - we must communicate

Call me - call me

Won't you call this number nowwww

Don’t Let It Go To Your Head

Now that you know
How I feel about you
Don't let it go your head, no
Don't let it go to your head, no no no no
Now that you know I can't live without you
Don't let it go to your head, no
Don't let it go to your head, no no no no
Don't take advantage of my love
Treat me good
Treat me bad
Treat me bad
Now that I'm givin' you every part of me
Don't let go to your head, no
Don't let it go to your head, no no no no
'Cause if you're playing games
It would be a shame
Don't break my heart
Don't break my heart

Now that you know how I feel about you
Don’t Let It Go To Your Head, no
Don't let it go to your head, no no no no
'Cause if you're playing games
It would be a shame
Don't break my heart
Don't break my heart
Don't let it
Don't let it
Don't let it
Go
To your head, no no no no

Get the Balance Right

There's more besides joyrides
Little house in the countryside
Understand, learn to demand,
Compromise, sometimes lie

Get the Balance right, get the balance right

Be responsible, respectable,
Stable but gullible
Concerned and caring, help the helpless
But always remain ultimately selfish

Get the balance right, get the balance right

You think you've got a hold of it all
You haven't got a hold at all
When you reach the top, get ready to drop
Prepare yourself for the fall, you're gonna fall
It's almost predictable

Don't take this way, don't take that way
Straight down the middle until next Thursday
Push to the left, back to the right
Twist and turn 'til you've got it right

Get the balance right

Everything Zen

There must be something we can eat

Maybe find another lover

Should I fly to Los Angeles

Find my asshole brother
Mickey mouse has grown up a cow

Dave's on sale again
We kissy kiss in the rear view
We're so bored, you're to blame
Try to see it once my way
Everything zen, everything zen
I don't think so
Everything zen, everything zen
I don't think so
Raindogs howl for the century
A million dollars at stake
As you search for your demigod
And you fake with a saint
There's no sex in your violence
There's no sex in your violence
There's no sex in your violence
There's no sex in your violence

Try to see it once my way
Everything zen, everything zen
I don't think so
Everything zen, everything zen
I don't think so
Everything zen, everything zen
I don't believe that Elvis is dead, yeah
I don't believe that Elvis is dead
I don't believe that Elvis is dead, yeah
I don't believe that Elvis is, Elvis is
There's no sex in your violence
There's no sex in your violence
There's no sex in your violence
There's no sex in your violence
Try to see it once my way
Everything zen, everything zen
I don't think so
Try to see it once my way
Everything zen, everything zen
I don't think so
Zen, zen
I don't think so, I don't think so, I don't think so
