Only Way Out

You’re a Noisemaker,
skull breaker,
this is your delight,
you’re a deadbeat, forger,
this is your new life.
Hear the sirens coming for you,
this is your prophecy,
there’s nothing you can do.
Cause this dreamless treason is our only way out,
yeah this dreamless treason is our only way out,
I don’t care what direction you go,
just put your foot down and drive,
it means fuck all to me,
just get us out alive.
You and I are one of many,
caught up in this flytrap,
to entertain, the people in the clouds there above us.
they say this bottle can't be broken,
but I don’t believe them,
cause were blue and all our fizz has gone.
Cause this dreamless treason is our only way out,
yeah this dreamless treason is our only way out,
I don’t care what direction you go,
just put your foot down and drive,
it means fuck all to me,
just get us out alive.
You’ve got one day,
to work this whole thing out,
you’ve got one day,
before it all comes crashing down.
You’ve got one day,
to work this whole thing out,
you’ve got one day,
before it all comes crashing down.
Cause this dreamless treason is our only way out,
yeah this dreamless treason is our only way out,
I don’t care what direction you go,
just put your foot down and drive,
it means fuck all to me,
just get us out alive.

It Ain't Easy
04:00

It ain’t easy,
To see,
What’s out there,
Beyond the free
Way to the sky
Or to the seabed,
Where nothing dries,
And failures all dead.
You never know,
What’s coming and what’s gone,
You never know,
How to be lone on your one,
Out there it’s light,
Until it all fades to black,
And now the powers decree,
That you are never to come back.
So pack all your bags
And find the door,
It might be jet lag,
Or is it war?
what can you know,
bout all of this,
On all your money,
and politics.
You never know,
What’s coming and what’s gone,
You never know,
How to be lone on your one,
Out there it’s light,
Until it all fades to black,
And now the powers decree,
That you are never to come back.
Why?
No.
Put your foot down,
It’s getting old.
All of this,
War,
Money,
More.
Politics,
Pretty Lies,
Love affairs,
Alibis.
You never know,
What’s coming and what’s gone,
You never know,
How to be lone on your one,
Out there it’s light,
Until it all fades to black,
And now the powers decree,
That you are never to come back.

Oh Ringo
04:26
|
|||
|
You see the ocean,
Its so blue,
The dirt rises
In dust clouds around you
You cant feel your fingers
You cant feel your toes
How long youve been walking?
Nobody knows.
You feel the fear,
Deep inside
They follow you
Down this one track line
You know your cue
Theyve got a gun
They look at you
Youve got to run
So Ringo run
So Ringo Run
You hide around the corner
You know theyre coming for you
You stand there deadly frozen
Like the winter of 62’
You cant help but wonder
If theres more to life than this
Than being trapped under
The newsmans thumb and fist
So Ringo run
So Ringo Run
You think you’ve outrun them
Youre counting down from ten
But your safety is denied
You’ve got a bullet in your side
The newsman put it there
He really doesnt care
Because now hes got his story,
From all your guts and glory.
Oh Ringo
Oh Ringo
Oh Ringo
Oh Ringo

Wrong Number
03:53

Wrong number, you call me again,
I never said that I wanted to be your friend
You call me 2 times, now you got the best of me
You call me 9 times now your the greatest enemy
Right number, I won’t pick up the phone,
I always tell you, I just want to be left alone
17 times, it don’t make any sense
You need to get some self competence.
Put down the phone,
Don’t put me on hold.
Put down the phone
It’s getting old.
It’s getting old.
Right number, you dial 509
Benny wants to know if you’re gunna wine or dine
You want the window seat or a little bitty booth
Baby, baby, Benny it’s up to you
Wrong number, oh wait it’s you again,
Here’s the paper and I'll lend you a pen,
I say 079, you say 07 ten
I say oh not this same old thing again
Put down the phone,
Don’t put me on hold.
Put down the phone
It’s getting old.
It’s getting old.
Hello operator?
Yeah, I'd love it if you could block his number.
Yeah, that’s the one,
With their incessant calling,
I can’t get anything done.
Yep, that’s everything,
Thank you operator.
Put down the phone,
Don’t put me on hold.
Put down the phone
It’s getting old.
It’s getting old.

Boy
04:51

You lace up your shoes,
Head out of the door,
There’s nothing to do,
You want to soar.
You put on your apron,
Serve them city girls
Their bodies covered in diamonds
Your head starts to swirl.
Calm down boy, you’re too wild
Calm down boy you’re too wild,
So get out of this town for a while,
There’s so much to do,
You’re only a child
You roll down to the station,
Watch the waves rolling in,
You put your feet in the ocean,
No that ain’t a sin.
You take what daddy could get you,
From a neighbour or friend,
You’re only looking after yourself,
You don’t wish to offend.
Calm down boy, you’re too wild
Calm down boy you’re too wild,
So get out of this town for a while,
There’s so much to do,
You’re only a child
Now you’ve dug a well,
A well so very deep,
And you wish you could tell,
Them that it’s only sleep.
Now you’ll never come back,
From your tin spoon,
But we’ll always remember
The happiest you.
Calm down boy, you’re too wild
Calm down boy you’re too wild,
So get out of this town for a while,
There’s so much to do,
You’re only a child
Death in a small town
Is never that rare,
If only they all knew,
That we all need care.
Death in a small town
Is never that rare,
If only they all knew,
That we all need care.

Confidence is either something you’re born with
Or I guess you might pick it up along the way
it can be seen as both a gift and a curse,
dependent on who you’re dealing with,
I however see it as the greatest gift
that one can possess
for it makes you believe that you and
you alone are the very best
So gimme time
So gimme time
Original is never easy to come by
when dealing with the mass production of our race
don’t lie to your mother, just tell her the truth
there’s no point denying that everybody hates a fake.
dress all in black, cause there’s no coming back,
just drop all your bags on the side of Como lake.
just stare at the ceiling, there’s no point in feeling
critical of anybody and their hate.
So gimme time
So gimme time
So gimme time
So gimme time

Preach
02:54
|

|
Its quarter to nine on a thursday night
And everything is gonna be alright oh oh
I won’t tell you what to do,
Don’t preach to me, I won’t preach to you oh oh
Keep the bad thoughts to yourself,
Put them bad things on the shelf oh oh
Dry your eyes with the divine light
And know that everythings alright sometimes.
So preach about the things love not the things you hate
And sing about the love you give not the love you take
Don’t think of me in your thoughts and prayers
Those things leave me a little scared oh oh
And whilst i love so many things,
It don’t mean that I love everything oh oh
And so i’m left on my lonesome own
Hoping that there’s somebody home oh oh
The lights are on but your out of sight
You mustve crawled back into the night oh oh.
So preach about the things love not the things you hate
And sing about the love you give not the love you take[

By The Night
03:48

You never grow old,
You never do as your told,
And no matter what they say,
You’ll never change,
No not today.
We’re changing all the time,
Through fear and through the mire
And how this all goes,
By the night,
We may never know.
A voice down the telephone,
Is enough to feel not alone,
And when I think,
I’d throw it all away,
Down the kitchen sink.
And through it all,
You’ll always be,
The one that i call x 2
