Was It Something I Said?
. . .


Well
you made your bed
better lie in it - get back to sleep !

You should see me when you're not around
I'm a genius in this town

I'm a queen bee when the coast is clear

now I know I don't need you
dear.
So leave your hand like a magic man and disappear !

You're history
like a beat up car
No good for me
like an old film star
You're history
that's what you are
na na na na

You're history
you're history
No good for me
no good for me
You're history
you're history
na na na na na

You should see me from your ivory tower
I'm the hero of the hour

I'm a close friend of destiny when you're not here to bother me.
Well
you made your bed
better lie in it
get back to sleep !

You're history
like ancient Rome
No good for me
like the Dead Sea Scrolls
You're history
everybody knows
na na na na

You're history
you're history
My enemy
my enemy
You're history
you're history
na na na na na

So get on your bike and take a hike right out of here !

You're history
you're history
No good for me
no good for me
You're history
you're history
na na na na

You're history
like a worn-out shoe
My enemy
you're nothing new
you're history
you're history
ooh-ooh-ooh

You're history
like a beat up car
No good for me
like an old film star
You're history
you're history
na na na na

You're history
sing it girl
let me hear you
You're history
na na na na

You're history
hm - my enemy
bye-bye
bye-bye
You're history
so long

. . .


Oh baby the freezing cold
Oh baby the dead of night
Oh baby the blue blue flowers
Oh baby in the midnight hour

I'll be your heroine
If they come knocking
I won't let them in
I'll be your heroine heroine

Oh baby just in time
Well maybe the night is mine
Oh baby don't forget
I'll save you it's not over yet

If you're feeling sick and it starts to rain
When you're in a fix I'll ease your pain

I'll be your heroine
If they come knocking
I won't let them in
I'll be your heroine heroine

Oh baby the telephone
Oh baby the devil's smile
Oh baby you're not alone
Don't worry I'll stay a while

I can hold your hand when the night is dark
In this foreign land I'm your Joan of Arc

I'll be your heroine
If they come knocking
I won't let them in
I'll be your heroine heroine

I'm your heroine
And if they come knocking
I won't let them in
I'm your heroine

. . .


With your new shoes and your black moods
You really break my heart
With your world acclaim and your family name
You really break my heart
Wrapped up warm in yourself tonight
You wonder why things aren't going right

You really break my heart
You really break my heart I bleed for you
You really break my heart
You really break my heart

Got a good looking lover don't need any other
To break my heart
Reading highbrow books just to cultivate your looks
You really break my heart
Watch out here's another breakdown
You wonder what caused it this time 'round

You really break my heart
You really break my heart I bleed for you
You really break my heart
You really break my heart

Home most nights with the TV on
You don't want to be with anyone

You really break my heart
You really break my heart I bleed for you
You really break my heart
You really break my heart

. . .


Ladies and gentleman
For your listening pleasure
Live from England:
The solid state sound of pure sex...

In the corner shops times are hard
Faces thin as credit cards
I walk past posters selling simple sex, ooh!
And all the records using cheap effects
I'm going down to the station in the heart of town
To buy a ticket just to hang around

I've got a dirty mind
I've got a dirty mind
Take a look at yourself

You stare are you looking at me
Or just an image from your colour TV
Dollar signs and neon lights
Shine on the people every night
I'm going down to the river to wash my sins away
But they'll be back tomorrow anyway

I've got a dirty mind
I've got a dirty mind
Take a look at yourself

I've got imagination
I got hallucinations
Do you want some?

I've got a dirty mind
I've got a dirty mind
Take a look at yourself

Smelling like a rose
Looking like a queen
I'll have a double dose If you know what I mean
Went down to the river
With no one to trust
When you know what you want
Then you do what you must
But you'd better think smart
And take my advice
Just think of nothing
And double it twice
I bought you a trumpet
And a brand new suit
Just don't be disappointed
When you lick the fruit

. . .


And when you go away
Don't let the red glow burn my eyes
And if you make me pay to keep you
Name your price

And I'm just waiting
I'm waiting
And I'm just waiting

You think you miss me
I always made you smile
I feel the rope start to burn
But the victory will be mine

And I'm just waiting
I'm just waiting
I'm waiting
Just waiting....

what time, what time, what time is this?
one man came....with my sister
he pulled her trousers down to the ground
... blue sky speak to me speak to me
with your hair so long and feathery
with Chinese sunset her arm, voice, spirit...

. . .


She likes to wake up and just fake it
She knows if she touches it she'll break it
She can see all the houselights fading
And the ground beneath her feet is shaking
She's singing bye bye my old friend
You're never going to see my face again
You left me outside in the rain
So goodbye mr. a.

Just when you think she's wearing thin
She's walking out with the biggest man you've ever seen
You're never gonna see my face again
It took some time so here I am,
So bye bye mr. a.
Well now her grass is looking greener
And you hope that sometime you might see her
What a diamond, boy, looks like you missed it
It must have left you feeling sick and twisted
Bye bye my old friend
You're never gonna see my face again
You left me outside in the rain
So bye bye I said bye bye

. . .


if this world is wearing thin
and you're thinking of escape
I'll go anywhere with you
just wrap me up in chains
but if you try to go alone
don't think I'll understand

stay with me, stay with me

in the silence of your room
in the darkness of your dreams
you must only think of me
there can be no in between
when your pride is on the floor
I'll make you beg for more

stay with me, stay with me

you'd better hope and pray
that you'll make it safe
back to your own world
you'd better hope and pray
that you'll wake one day
in your own world

Cos when you sleep at night
They don't hear you cries in your own world
Only time will tell if you can break the spell
Back in your own world

stay with me, stay with me
stay with me, stay with me (repeat until end)

. . .


Walking through the rooms in my head
I came across your image
You looked at me with that sweet smile and said
Something they won't let me repeat
We hurt the ones we love the most
It's a subtle form of compliment

I don't care if you talk about me
I don't care if you write it out in stone
Whenever I fall I land on my feet
I don't care, I just don't care

Mark the spot you hate with an x
Then shoot your bow and arrow
Do your worst get it all off your chest
I'll hold my breath and swallow
We hurt the ones we love the most
It's a subtle form of discipline

I don't care if you talk about me
I don't care if you write it out in stone
Whenever I fall I land on my feet
I don't care, I just don't care

I don't care if you act like a queen
I don't care if you take it out on me
I've got 9 lives and I land on my feet
I don't care, I just don't care

Out of the alley, I spoke came Victoria
Queen Victoria sitting shocked upon the rocking horse
Of a wave said to the laureate
This minx a course as sharp as any lynx
And blacker deeper than the drinks
As any hottentot without remorse
For the lynx said she and the drinks you can see
Are hot as any hottentot and not the goods for me
Hot as any hottentot and not the goods for me

I don't care if you talk about me
I don't care if you write it out in stone
Whenever I fall I land on my feet
I don't care, I just don't care

I don't care if you act like a queen
I don't care if you take it out on me
I've got 9 lives and I land on my feet
I don't care, I just don't care

. . .


Woke up this morning and the streets were full of cars
All bright and shiny like they'd just arrived from Mars
And as I stumbled through last nights drunken debris
The paperboy screamed out the headlines in the street

Another war and now the pound is looking weak
And tell me have you read about the latest freak?
We're bingo numbers and our names are obsolete
Why do I feel bitter when I should be feeling sweet

Hello, hello turn your radio on
Is there anybody out there?
Help me sing my song
La la la life is a strange thing
Just when you think you learned how to use it
It's gone

Woke up this morning and my head was in a daze
A brave new world has dawned upon the human race
Where words are meaning less and everything's surreal
Gonna have to reach my friends to find out how I feel

And if I taste the honey is it really sweet
And do I eat it with my hands or with my feet?
Does anybody really listen when I speak
Or will I have to say it all again next week

Hello, hello turn your radio on
Is there anybody out there?
Help me sing my song

Hello, hello turn your radio on
Is there anybody out there?
Tell me what went wrong
La la la life is a strange thing
Life is a strange thing

Hello, hello turn your radio on
Is there anybody out there?
Help me sing my song
Hello, hello turn your radio on
Is there anybody out there?
Help me sing my song
La la la life is a strange thing
Just when you think you learned how to use it
It's gone

. . .


Hey boys, it's a steal
You're hanging on, by your finger nails
As usual, the king is dead
Long live the queens
Hey girls, no big deal
You're fifteen minutes
Start right here, so baby lets go
Lets go..

I'm watching the world,
I'm taking my time
I've waited my turn
Now I'm gonna shine

Heroes take their toll
Hog your dreams, then crush your soul
And take you out, out to dinner
Roll on the original
Highly strung out, spaced out individual
I'm a terminal sinner

I'm watching the world,
I'm taking my time
I've waited my turn
Now I'm gonna shine

And all the pretty people that I used to see
Have died or moved away
Or they're in recovery
And all the buildings where the faithless used to play
Have crumbled into clay
And I don't know what to say,
I just don't know what to say

I'm watching the world,
I'm taking my time
I've waited my turn
Now I'm gonna shine

I declare my innocence,
I'm worth more than 60 pence
Look, i've got a shiny car,
I Can Drive, I can drive,Yes, baby, i'm for real
That's just the way I feel
I can take a ride anytime

Everything I pass is old,
Everything I touch is gold,
Now I see the world unfold,
I Can drive, I can drive

Yes baby, it's a steal,
Nothing that you see is real,
Get yourself a pair of wheels,
Learn to drive, come on

. . .


You could have been a docker
You had it all
Feather cut and muscles
I hear you're a banker these days
Well we took New York
And wrapped it up in a silver shawl
Yeah yeah yeah

You were always kicking in the exit door
While I was saving pennies
For the bus back home
Coming down in the afternoon

Excuse me John
What are you on
Can you spare a bit for me
To carry on
Through today, 'til tonight
'Cos tomorrow's out of sight
Out of reach
Out of it, again

You carried off a billboard
Twenty foot by ten
And put it in your bedroom
Now you can't get in
So please wash your hands
As you leave this century

Excuse me John
What are you on
Can you spare a bit for me
To carry on
Through today, 'til tonight
'Cos tomorrow's out of sight
Out of reach
Out of it, again

Yeah yeah yeah yeah

You know you want it
You know you need it
You know I need it too

Excuse me John
What are you on
Can you spare a bit for me
To carry on
Through today, 'til tonight
'Cos tomorrow's out of sight
Out of reach
Out of it, again

. . .


In this faded room, I sit
I need a home
But this isn't it
I need a heart as hard as stone
I need a friend
You could be the one

You say I'm weak
You tell me I'm vain
I want a thrill to ease the pain
Put on a record
Straight to my brain
But don't you ever put me down again

Oh baby baby
My time will come
Oh baby baby
Can you wait that long?

And as the storm clouds break
I run outside to dance in the rain
You know I've always loved the storm
It's only you that does me harm

Oh baby baby
I'm gonna prove you wrong
Oh baby baby
Can you wait that long?

(Faith, don't fail me now...)

In this faded room, I sit
I need a home
But this isn't it
I need a heart as hard as stone
I need a friend
You could be the one

You say I'm weak
You tell me I'm vain
I want to kill to ease the pain
Put on a record
Straight to my brain
But don't you ever put me down again

Oh baby baby
I'll prove you wrong
Oh baby baby
Can you wait that long?

. . .


There goes the year
In doctors' bills and sleeping pills
Too many years
Have I been interned
I miss the flames

In which I was burned
When I say I miss you
When I say I miss you
Do I scare you?
Do I scare you?
Do I?
I probably do

I rest my case
The child dies at 35
I could be lying here
In the time it takes you to arrive
I could be crying
I could be dying
Oh, woah, I could be lying
When I say I miss you
When I say I miss you
Do I scare you?
Do I scare you?
Do I?
I probably do

You gave me nothing
I asked for nothing
You really gave me nothing
But myself

Didn't know what I was thinking
But you didn't really care
I'm gonna find that gun you bought me
The one I'm holding
Just the way he taught me
Hey mister
I say listen mister
That's my finger on the trigger
It's my finger
Holding the trigger baby
Does it scare you?
But I dare to
This is my finger
And it's pointing at you
When I say I miss you
When I say I miss you
When I say I miss you
When I say I miss you
When I say I miss you
Do I scare you?
Do I scare you?
Do I scare you?
When I say I miss you
When I say I miss you
Do I scare you?
Oh oh, oh oh....
When I say I miss you
Oh oh..
