Oh, run-a, oh, run-a, oh, runaways
Ah

Oh, run-a, oh, run-a, oh, runaways
(Please come home)
Oh, run-a, oh, run-a, oh, runaways
(Please come home)
Daddy hit you in a temper, but he's sorry now
(Please come home)
Just a quarrel had with mummy, just a family row
(Please come home)

You caught mum chasing dad with a knife
(Don't cry, don't cry, don't cry, don't cry)
You ran away to escape from the fights
(Don't cry, don't cry, don't cry, don't cry)
Now, you're lost in a maze of neon light
And she's worried, he's worried, she's worried, oh

Oh, run-a, oh, run-a, oh, runaways
(Please come home)
Oh, run-a, oh, run-a, oh, runaways
(Please come home)
Pacing street lamps on the highway, haystack for your bed
(Please come home)
In the morning we will find you in papers to be read
(Please come home)

You heard screams from the warmth of your bed
(Don't cry, don't cry, don't cry, don't cry)
You slumbered on without being fed
(Don't cry, don't cry, don't cry, don't cry)
Now, there's no more tears to be shed
And she's sorry, he's sorry, she's sorry, oh

Oh, run-a, oh, run-a, oh, runaways
(Please come home)
Oh, run-a, oh, run-a, oh, runaways
(Please come home)
(Please come home, please come home, please come home)
Oh, run-a, oh, run-a, oh, runaways
(Please come home, please come home, please come home)
Oh, run-a, oh, run-a, oh, runaways
(Please come home, please come home, please come home)

Save us from the ball and chain
Save us from the ball and chain
Save us from the ball and chain, oh, yeah
The diggers and the towering cranes

Save us from the ball and chain
Save us from the ball and chain
Save us from the ball and chain, oh, yeah
The diggers and the towering cranes

The diggers and the towering cranes

Save us from the ball and chain
Save us from the ball and chain
Save us from the ball and chain, oh, yeah
The diggers and the towering cranes

Don't want demolition
Don't want your compensation
It's not just bricks and mortar
We are lambs to slaughter

Save us from the ball and chain
Save us from the ball and chain
Save us from the ball and chain, oh, yeah
The diggers and the towering cranes

The diggers and the towering cranes

Must we live in fear
From those who shed no tears?
Our one and only shelter
Your games, your Helter Skelter

Motorways and office blocks
They're standing on the spot where stood a home
They're crushing all the memories of people
Who have since turned to stone
Who turned to stone
They turned to stone

Save us from the ball and chain
Save us from the ball and chain
Save us from the ball and chain, oh, yeah
The diggers and the towering cranes

Save us from the ball and chain
Save us from the ball and chain
Save us from the ball and chain, oh, yeah
The diggers and the towering cranes

The diggers and the towering cranes
The diggers and the towering

Hey, hey, the clouds are whey
There's straw for the donkeys
And the innocents can all sleep safely
All sleep safely

My, my, sun is pie
There's fodder for the cannons
And the guilty ones can all sleep safely
All sleep safely

And all the world is football-shaped
It's just for me to kick in space
And I can see, hear, smell, touch, taste
And I've got one, two, three, four, five
Senses working overtime
Trying to take this all in
I've got one, two, three, four, five
Senses working overtime
Trying to taste the difference 'tween a lemon and a lime
Pain and pleasure, and the church bells softly chime

Hey, hey, night fights day
There's food for the thinkers
And the innocents can all live slowly
All live slowly

My, my, the sky will cry
Jewels for the thirsty
And the guilty ones can all die slowly
All die slowly

And all the world is biscuit-shaped
It's just for me to feed my face
And I can see, hear, smell, touch, taste
And I've got one, two, three, four, five
Senses working overtime
Trying to take this all in
I've got one, two, three, four, five
Senses working overtime
Trying to taste the difference 'tween a lemon and a lime
Pain and pleasure, and the church bells softly chime

And birds might fall from black skies (Whoo-whoo)
And bullies might give you black eyes (Whoo-whoo)
And buses might skid on black ice (Whoo-whoo)
But to me they're very, very beautiful (England's glory)
Beautiful (A striking beauty)

And all the world is football-shaped
It's just for me to kick in space
And I can see, hear, smell, touch, taste
And I've got one, two, three, four, five
Senses working overtime
Trying to take this all in
I've got one, two, three, four, five
Senses working overtime
Trying to tell the difference 'tween the goods and crimes
Dirt and treasure
And there's one, two, three, four, five
Senses working overtime
Trying to take this all in
I've got one, two, three, four, five
Senses working overtime
Trying to taste the difference 'tween a lemon and a lime
Pain and pleasure, and the church bells softly chime

There may be no golden fleece
But human riches I'll release

Oh, my head is spinning like the world and it's filled with beasts I've seen
Let me put my bag down, and I'll tell you it all right from the start
Like the scarlet woman who would pick on the boys she thought were green
And the two-faced man who made a hobby of breaking his wife's heart

Seems the more I travel
From the foam to gravel
As the nets unravel
All exotic fish I find

Like Jason and the Argonauts
There may be no golden fleece, but human riches I'll release
Like Jason and the Argonauts
There may be no golden fleece, but human riches I'll release

I was in a land where men force women to hide their facial features
And here in the west it's just the same but they're using make-up veils
I've seen acts of every shade of terrible crime from man-like creatures
And I've had the breath of liars blowing me off course in my sails

Seems the more I travel
From the foam to gravel
As the nets unravel
All exotic fish I find

Like Jason and the Argonauts
There may be no golden fleece, but human riches I'll release
Like Jason and the Argonauts
There may be no golden fleece, but human riches I'll release

I have watched the manimals go by
Buying shoes, buying sweets, buying knives
I have watched the manimals and cried
Buying time, buying ends to other people's lives

There may be no golden fleece, but human riches I'll release
There may be no golden fleece, but human riches I'll release
There may be no golden fleece, but human riches I'll release
There may be no golden fleece, but human riches I'll release

I have watched the manimals go by
Buying shoes, buying sweets, buying knives
I have watched the manimals and cried
Buying time, buying ends to other people's lives

Like Jason and the Argonauts
There may be no golden fleece, but human riches I'll release
Like Jason and the Argonauts
There may be no golden fleece, but human riches I'll release
Like Jason and the Argonauts
There may be no golden fleece, but human riches I'll release
Like Jason and the Argonauts
There may be no golden fleece, but human riches I'll release
Like Jason and the Argonauts
There may be no golden fleece, but human riches I'll release
Like Jason and the Argonauts
There may be no golden fleece, but human riches I'll release

There may be no golden fleece, but human riches I'll release
There may be no golden fleece, but human riches I'll release
Like Jason and the Argonauts
There may be no golden fleece, but human riches I'll release

Ow

The insect-headed worker-wife will hang her waspies on the line
The husband burns his paper, sucks his pipe while studying their 'causehion-floor
His viscous poly-paste breath comes out
Their wall-paper world is shattered by his shout
A boy in blue is busy banging out a headache on the kitchen door

And all the while Graham slept on
Dreaming of a world where he could do just what he wanted to

No thugs in our house are there, dear?
We made that clear
We made little Graham promise us he'd be a good boy, oh
No thugs in our house are there, dear?
We made that clear
We made little Graham promise us he'd be a good boy

The young policeman who just can't grow a moustache will open up his book
And spoil their breakfast with reports of Asians who have been so badly kicked
Is this your son's wallet I've got here?
He must have dropped it after too much beer
Oh, officer, we can't believe our little angel is the one you've picked

And all the while Graham slept on
Dreaming of a world where he could do just what he wanted to

No thugs in our house are there, dear?
We made that clear
We made little Graham promise us he'd be a good boy, oh
No thugs in our house are there, dear?
We made that clear
We made little Graham promise us he'd be a good boy

They never read those pamphlets in his bottom drawer
They never read that tattoo on his arm
They thought that was just a boys' club badge he wore
They never thought he'd cause folks any harm

The insect-headed worker wife will hang her waspies on the line
She's singing something stale and simple, now this business has fizzled out
Her little tune is such a happy song
Her son is innocent, he can't do wrong
'Cause dad's a judge and knows exactly what the job of judging's all about

And all the while Graham slept on
Dreaming of a world where he could do just what he wanted to

No thugs in our house are there, dear?
We made that clear
We made little Graham promise us he'd be a good boy, oh
No thugs in our house are there, dear?
We made that clear
We made little Graham promise us he'd be a good boy

No thugs in our house
No thugs in our house
No thugs in our house, dear

Ow

No thugs in our house
No thugs in our house, woo
No thugs in our house
No thugs in our house, woo
No thugs in our house
No thugs in our house, woo
No thugs in our house
No thugs in our house, ow

We, we will dance like tiny boats with cotton sails upon the tops of the seas
That would pull us down to the depths and crush us flat if given half a chance
No need to look back to pictures of lost, when all was rust
We, we will skim across the surface of the mud as if we're spinning pebbles
Oh, in our yacht dance
Oh, in our yacht dance

We, we will dance like tiny boats with cotton sails upon the tops of the seas
Made of people stained with scorn who never see the light of real love
No need to look back through diaries of lost now turned to dust
We, we will skate across the surface of the storm as if we're wheeling sea birds
Oh, in our yacht dance
Oh, in our yacht dance

And how they'll be jealous of both of us
In our yacht dance

We, we will dance like tiny boats with cotton sails upon, upon the tops of the sea
Made of people stained with scorn who never see the light of real love
Oh, in our yacht dance
Oh, in our yacht dance

. . .


What can I say?
Why do we starve a thing that's near extinction?
From day to day
These weeds of fear
Are choking our conviction
Life's like a jig-saw
You get the straight bits
But there's something missing in the middle

(All of a sudden)
We find the cupboard's bare
(All of a sudden)
We find Heaven's not there
(All of a sudden)
We find the Sun's gone cold
(All of a sudden)
We find we're more than old
(All of a sudden)
We find that we've lost love
Please don't push or shove because
It's too late
It's too late
In all your hurry you've accidentally locked the gate

What can we do?
Trying to stem the flow of sand is useless
It's up to you
Start holding hands and watch the balance redress
Life's like a firework
You're only lit once
And you must stand and radiate correctly

(All of a sudden)
We find the cupboard's bare
(All of a sudden)
We find Heaven's not there
(All of a sudden)
We find the Sun's gone cold
(All of a sudden)
We find we're more than old
(All of a sudden)
We find that we've lost love
Please don't push or shove because
It's too late
It's too late
In all your hurry you've accidentally locked the gate

Love's not a product you can hoard or pack a suitcase with
It's more a way you have to give

Life's like a jig-saw
You get the straight bits
But there's something missing in the middle

(All of a sudden)
We find the cupboard's bare
(All of a sudden)
We find Heaven's not there
(All of a sudden)
We find the Sun's gone cold
(All of a sudden)
We find we're more than old
(All of a sudden)
We find that we've lost love
Please don't push or shove because
(All of a sudden)
We find the cupboard's bare
(All of a sudden)
We find Heaven's not there
(All of a sudden)
We find the Sun's gone cold
(All of a sudden)
We find we're more than old
(All of a sudden)
We find that we've lost love
It's
It's
In all your hurry you've accidentally locked the gate

Programmes of violence
As entertainment
Brings the disease into your room
We know the germ
Which is man made in metal
Is really a key to your own tomb

Prevention is better than cure
Bad apples affecting the pure
You'll gather your senses, I'm sure
Then agree to

Melt the guns
Melt the guns
Melt the guns
And never more to fire them
Melt the guns
Melt the guns
Melt the guns
And never more desire them
Melt the guns (you want to)
Melt the guns
Melt the guns
And never more to fire them
Melt the guns
Melt the guns
Melt the guns
And never more desire them

Children will want them
Mothers supply them
As long as your killers are heroes
And all the media
Will fiddle while Rome burns
Acting like modern time Neros

Prevention is better than cure
Bad apples affecting the pure
You'll gather your senses, I'm sure
Then agree to

Melt the guns
Melt the guns
Melt the guns
And never more to fire them
Melt the guns
Melt the guns
Melt the guns
And never more desire them
Melt the guns (you want to)
Melt the guns
Melt the guns
And never more to fire them
Melt the guns
Melt the guns
Melt the guns
And never more desire them

I'm speaking to the Justice League of America
The US of A
Hey, you
Yes, you in particular
When it comes to the judgement day, and you're standing at the gates in your weaponry
You dead go down on one knee, clasp your hands in prayer and start quoting me
'Cause we say
'Cause we say
Our father we've managed to contain the epidemic in one place, now
Let's hope they shoot themselves instead of others, help to civilize the race now
We've trapped the cause of the plague in the land of the free and the home of the brave
If we listen quietly you can hear them shooting from grave to grave
If we listen quietly you can hear them shooting from grave to grave
If we listen quietly you can hear them shooting from grave to grave
Grave to grave to grave to grave to grave to grave
Grave to grave to grave to grave to grave to grave
You should

Melt the guns
Melt the guns
Melt the guns
And never more to fire them
Melt the guns
Melt the guns
Melt the guns
And never more desire them
Melt the guns (you want to)
Melt the guns
Melt the guns
And never more to fire them
Melt the guns
Melt the guns
Melt the guns
And never more desire them
Melt the guns
Melt the guns now
Melt the guns
Oh, melt the guns now
Melt the guns
Melt the guns now
Melt the guns
Melt the guns now

Leisure

They taught me how to work, but they can't teach me how to shirk correctly
Whoah

As you see, science once again robs us of our jobs
They've put a microchip in my place
I hide behind a screen of aggression nowadays
It's just a way of saving some face
So now I'm permanently drunk like the rest of the race with
Leisure
If you think I'm clowning, I assure you that I'm drowning here in
Leisure
They taught me how to work, but they can't teach me how to shirk correctly
Whoah

I spend all day and all my allowance on T.V. games
Amusement Heaven at the flick of a switch
Instead of a lathe, I busy my fingers nowadays
By scoring goals with the gentlest twitch
I've forgotten how to use my legs to invade the pitch
Leisure
If you think I'm clowning, I assure you that I'm drowning here in
Leisure
They taught me how to work, but they can't teach me how to shirk correctly
Whoah

They had retired me 'fore I left school
(Just saw no point in the standing in line)
So I spend lots of time lounging at home
(Why not come in 'cause the carpet is fine?)
What a waste of breath it is
Searching for the jobs that don't exist

So now I'm permanently drunk like the rest of the race with
Leisure
If you think I'm clowning, I assure you that I'm drowning here in
Lei
They taught me how to work, but they can't teach me how to shirk correctly
Whoah
Whoah
La-la-la-leisure
La-la-la-leisure
Lazybones, looking through the Sun
How'd you ever expect to find your day's work?
Lazybones, looking through the Sun
How'd you ever expect to find your day's work?

. . .


Chant your spirit free
Rush to greet truth like a dart
(Shake your bag o' bones)
(Shake your bag o' bones)
That's not traffic roar
That's a leopard in your heart
(Shake your bag o' bones)
(Shake your bag o' bones)

Go tell your stale friends
Go tell false prophets and drug traffickers

Not to try to push our bodies any faster
We're dancing with disaster
And the first will be the last
It's nearly Africa (oh)
It's nearly Africa (oh)
Any day now
Any day now, now
Any day now
Any day now, now
Any day now (it's nearly Africa)
Any day now, now
Any day now (it's nearly Africa)
Any day now, now

Unplug future plans
Finger-paint the Sun on you
(Shake your bag o' bones)
(Shake your bag o' bones)
Mend your missing links
I think trust should be the glue
(Shake your bag o' bones)
(Shake your bag o' bones)

Go tell your warboys
Go tell all leeches and blind panickers

Not to try to push our bodies any faster
We're dancing with disaster
And the first will be the last
It's nearly Africa (oh)
It's nearly Africa (oh)
Any day now
Any day now, now
Any day now
Any day now, now
Any day now (it's nearly Africa)
Any day now, now
Any day now (it's nearly Africa)
Any day now, now

(Our civilisation car is running wild, wild, wild, wild)
(Who did you give the wheel to?)
(The fat man driving us over the edge of the nearest cliff face)
(Is he the same God that I've seen you kneel to?)

Go tell your stale friends
Go tell false prophets and drug traffickers

Not to try to push our bodies any faster
We're dancing with disaster
And the first will be the last
It's nearly Africa (oh)
It's nearly Africa (oh)
Any day now

Knuckle down, love his skin
It doesn't matter what colour skin he's locked in, knuckle down
Knuckle down and love that skin

Knuckle down, love his race
It doesn't matter if you win or lose a little face
Knuckle down and love that race

Because one bright morning the world might end with a big bang (big bang)
And you'll never ever get yourself another chance
Put aside the hoodoo and some of the voodoo
'Bout people being different, they're not so different

Take them by the arm and run to the street
Take a little drum to supply some beat
Soon the whole world will be up on its feet and dancing

For my sake
Won't you put your knuckles down, boys, my, my?
For my sake
Won't you put you knuckles down, boys, oys, oys?

Knuckle down, love her skin
It doesn't matter what colour skin she's locked in, knuckle down
Knuckle down and love that skin

Knuckle down, love her race
It doesn't matter if you win or lose a little face
Knuckle down and love that race

Because one bright morning you just might wake when the coin drops (coin drops)
Even though you think that love is such a corny thing (do-do-do)
You can burst the bubbles full with troubles
Says that people always got to be fighting, not right

Take them by the arm and run to the fields
Blow on your horn until Jericho yields
Soon the whole world will lay down swords and shield for singing

For my sake
Won't you put your knuckles down, boys, my, my?
For my sake
Won't you put you knuckles down?

Take them by the arm and run to the street
Take a little drum to supply some beat
Soon the whole world will be up on its feet and dancing

For my sake
Won't you put your knuckles down, boys, my, my?
For my sake
Won't you put your knuckles down, boys, my, my?
For my sake
Won't you put you knuckles down?
Whoah

I am the fly on the wall
My prying eyes are looking through your bottom drawer
I just came flying through your door
You didn't notice that your number had been called

I see the mother beating the babe
I see the money, the pennies you save
Stored on computers from birth to the grave

I'm telling you, fly on the wall
See, see, see, seeing it all

I am the fly upon the wall
You're in the index of the files that stand so tall
Although your health is rather poor
We have a place for those who cannot find a cure

I know your income, your daily crust
I know your pleasures, your passion, your lust
I know when you're living, and I know when you're dust

I tell you, fly on the wall
See, see, see, seeing it all

One is born and one will die, it's all understood
The bit that's in the middle doesn't count, no, no, no, don't count

I am the fly on the wall
My prying eyes are looking through your bottom drawer
I just came flying through your door
You didn't notice that your number had been called

I see the mother beating the babe
I see the money, the pennies you save
Stored on computers from birth to the grave

I'm telling you, fly on the wall
See, see, see, seeing it all
I'm telling you, fly on the wall
See, see, see, seeing it all, woo
Fly on the wall
See, see, see, seeing it all
Fly on the wall
See, see, see, seeing it all
Fly on the wall
See, see, see, seeing it all

Man acting like a farmer and
He's treated the woman like a poor cow
We got to treat you better from now
But man is just a baby and
He's needing your milk of kindness, I vow
To drink as much as you will allow

All the way through history
Man, machine, no my-my-mystery
All the way through history
Girl have the brain to act like the weaker sex

Down in the cockpit
Man need the woman to pull him right out of it

Filling the world full with a new soul
To get so far they payed a high toll
Try not to make the same mistakes
As man has made, or you'll fall in that hole
And you will see us changing our role

All the way through history
Man, machine, no my-my-mystery
All the way through history
Girl have the brain to act like the weaker sex

Oh, look what is this pigeon down in the hole
Well, I know, sir, this strange being was once abundant on the Earth
They would roam in great herds
And many made important decisions
But now they are virtually excinct
Some say they were called man

All the way through history
Man, machine, no my-my-mystery
All the way through history
Girl have the brain to act like the weaker sex

Down in the cockpit
Man need the woman to pull him right out of it

People rushing round with no time to spare
I'm so dizzy, I'm neither here nor there
In this traffic jam, I just want to shout
Let me off o' this

English roundabout (oh, oh, oh)
English roundabout (oh, oh, oh)
English roundabout (oh, oh, oh)
English rounda

And all the the horns go 'beep! beep!'
All the people follow like sheep
And all the lights and sound
Making my head go round, round

(Oo-oo, oo-oo)
(Oo-oo, oo-oo)

Everyone is cursing under their breath
I'm a passenger, I feel close to death
Hopeless situation, I have no doubt
Stop the madness

English roundabout (oh, oh, oh)
English roundabout (oh, oh, oh)
English roundabout (oh, oh, oh)
English rounda

And all the cars go 'brum! brum!'
And in my ears I feel a hum
The neons blind my eyes
All those tempers rise, rise, rise, rise

(Oo-oo, oo-oo)
(Oo-oo, oo-oo)

(Oo-oo, oo-oo)
(Oo-oo, oo-oo)

Cars and buses go puffing out their smoke
Roll my window down, I begin to choke
I have had enough, I just want to get out
Let me off o' this

English roundabout (oh, oh, oh)

Ah

Dumaladipa amadui amadui
Dumaladipa amadui amadui

It isn't even winter and I'm freezing, freezing
This sort of feeling isn't pleasing
And what I want to know, man
(Why, oh, why)
Does she treat me like a snowman?
Ah

It isn't even winter and I'm freezing, freezing
This sort of feeling isn't pleasing
And what I want to know, man
(Why, oh, why)
Does she treat me like a snowman?
Ah

She's been building me
Up quite steadily
Seems like I've been here years and years and years and years
I wait patiently
Froze in history
All ice water is tears and tears and tears and tears

She treats me far too frosty
This hanging on has cost me dear
Oh

Dumaladipa amadui amadui
Dumaladipa amadui amadui

It isn't even winter and I'm shivering, shivering
Waiting for the love that's not delivering
And what I want to know, man
(Why, oh, why)
Does she treat me like a snowman?
Ah

It isn't even winter and I'm shivering, shivering
Waiting for the love that's not delivering
And what I want to know, man
(Why, oh, why)
Does she treat me like a snowman?
Ah

She's been building me
Up quite steadily
Seems like I've been here years and years and years and years
I wait patiently
Froze in history
All ice water is tears and tears and tears and tears
She treats me far too frosty
This hanging on has cost me
It seems you would say I was too soft-hearted
If you made a dunce cap I'd don it
People will always be tempted to wipe their feet
On anything with 'welcome' written on it

It isn't even winter and I'm freezing, freezing
This sort of feeling isn't pleasing
And what I want to know, man
(Why, oh, why)
Does she treat me like a snowman?
Ah

It isn't even winter and I'm shivering, shivering
Waiting for the love that's not delivering
And what I want to know, man
(Why, oh, why)
Does she treat me like a snowman?
Ah

(Why, oh, why) does she treat me, does she treat me?
(Why, oh, why) does she treat me, does she treat me?
(Why, oh, why) does she treat me like a snowman?
(Why, oh, why) just like a snowman

Ah
