See the rivers filled with rain
I wish it could be blue again
Hazy petrol nights
Crimson sun on traffic lights

A perfect day a perfect night
Tell me all those perfect lies
And lie back in the garden till it's light
Streets get full up every up
With people buzzing round the lights
And waving at the taxis driving by

Now tomorrow's here today
And yesterday's todays just fade away

Watch the morning chase the night
Rolling home, it's getting light
Feeling sleepy, full of wine
Fall in bed, just in time

The perfect stare of perfect eyes
That kiss you as they tell you lies
And wonder where you're going, where've you been
In towers high with time to fill
Gardens on your window sill
In between the pavement and the sky

Tell me why all the words will never come out right
Fumbling blind, I've been driving through the danger signs

A perfect day a perfect night
Tell me all those perfect lies
And lie back in the garden till it's light
Perfect silence me and you
It's really me, I really do
Remember every moment magnified


. . .



Your're lying again
You say you don't but then you do
I'm trying again
To build a wall around you're heart
Then break it through to you
You make it happen

You're chasing the moon
Reahcing out to touch the stars
But you land too soon
What will it take to make you see
The way things really are
You've got this far
So let it happen

You're lying again
Give it up and tell the truth
You can't stop the rain
It's gonna fall on every roof
I've got the proof
And only you can make it happen

Everything's blue now, oh lucky you
Oh lucky you
There's nothing to lose
So if it's really true
Oh lucky you


. . .



Woke up and smiled this morning
Wishes swam like fishes in my head
I rub my eyes as all the reasons chase the
Demons from my bed
I'm on top of the world
And it's just for a moment
I know all the right words
And I wish that I'd told you then
I know now, I know how

Come and splash in the waves and they'll kiss you with cold
'Till you shiver and say that you wish I would hold you
Well I know now
I know how

Woke up and smiled this morning
Wishes swam like fishes in my head
I rubbed my eyes as all the reasons chase the
Demons from my head

Open goals that call me over
I've got to take them
Don't fall over again


. . .



The world is full of fools, who never get it right
You don't know what to do, so you do anything you like.

(put your foot down and drive) Oh, your a silly thing
(put your foot down and drive) You're such a pretty thing
(put your foot down and drive) You're never gonna be like all those fools,
We're going out tonight.
Theres nothing to lose, you're gonna give it all a try.

Don't ever change. Don't ever change.
No, never change, never change.

You better say you're prayers, or whisper to the wise,
And thank you're lucky stars for coming out tonight.

(put your foot down and drive) Oh, you're a silly thing,
(put your foot down and driiiiive) Don't you ever change,
Don't ever change (ever change)
No never change, never change.

When people's eyes, all open wide, they're still too blind to see,
A change in style, for a while, is only make-believe.

(put your foot down and drive) Oh, you're a silly thing
(put your foot down and drive) You're such a pretty thing
(put your foot down and drive)
You're never satisfied, so look for something new
There's nothing to find, and nothing you can do.

Don't ever change, don't ever change
No never change, never change.

Oh, you fool, you've got me started
Oh, you fool, you've got me started
Oh, you fool, you've got me started


. . .



If you try you may find
You may find what you need
Do you like what you see
Did they hide what you need


. . .



Oh you hope to fit, but you're fit to drop
So open up the window and jump into the blue
Things could be marvellous, things could be fabulous

Oh do you need a push, I'll push you off
Open up the window and jump into the blue
Things could be marvellous soon

Oh you hate to hit till you hit the top
Open up the window and jump into the blue
Things could be marvellous, things could be fabulous soon

Oh well these are the days and this is the life
There'll always be something on your mind
You'll never quite find
Won't you ever make your mind up
Now you'll never be sure if this is the time
If this is the moment, the end of the line
You'll never decide
You used to know but now you've forgotten
The submarine got stuck to the bottom
These are the days so wake up cos this is the time
And you know I'm right


. . .



Mr Johnson's car gets the weekend shine
And it's so fine
Music plays on radios
And Lisa in the garden singing to the washing line
Well never mind
People do the strangest things
Our English sky may well cry
Housewives talk
But I'm so bored

Oh did you love that lazy feeling
So do you feel like sleeping
Let the world go by

Mr Bently yawns, he hates the daily grind
So it's goodnight, a thousand sleepy heads on pillows
Monday start all over
Tuesday safe behind your blinds
Come on over
We can spend an hour or two
Our English sky may well cry
Housewives talk
But I'm so bored

We spent a perfect day and talked the hours away
Just drifting through the streets and melting in the heart
Oh do you love that lazy feeling
So do you feel like sleeping
Let the world go by


. . .



He said,
I'm not dead but don't wake me ever
'Cos I may have to think this through
She said she's changed her mind and I didn't try to put it right
Though I've every reason to
I don't know, she wouldn't say
Exactly when she intends to mince her light fantastic my way
And make my very best day

Let me tell you the way it will always be
He'll see it all but he won't see me
And didn't I give hime every sign
That his best days are leaving me behind

She said,
Later - if it's her you can say I've gone away
I get nowhere peachy keen
You tell her next week and maybe find out where they're going
Just so I know where I should be
She's got a nerve and thats okay but I want to hear her
When she's finally got something decent to say
Could be my very best day

What exactly do you want me to say
No I don't feel good for you
And you can get that girls out of my face
I don't enjoy her like you do

And this is the way it will always be
He's seen it all but he won't see me
And how do I show him diamond skies
When all he has are best days in his eyes


. . .



Baby's eyes are black
She's taken all the clothes
She's never coming back
The yes turned into no
Oh you know you made a fool of everyone
Turn around and take a bow
But evryone's gone
Look at you hiding in the corner
Wishing we were somewhere new
Nothing is forever, we're not so clever now
You say I'll never learn
I've been around the world
You thought I never heard
But oh you know I let you down like everyone
I messed around and took a bow
But everyone's gone
Look at you standing in the corner
Wishing I was somewhere new
I promise it's the last time I lie to you
Oh you know you made a fool of everyone
Turn around and take a bow
Now everyone's gone
Look at you hiding in the corner
Wishing there were somewhere new
Didn't have the patience
Punch & Judy do


. . .



With frozen hands and feet on smokey days
I wish I'd kept more of those things you gave me
Snow melts on your palm
A bigger coat to keep us warm
Nothing like it was before
But this is worth it after all
Day in, day out, goodnight all
This is us now
