And all I want is something special,
And you can’t give it to me,
And all you do is lie to me,
‘Cause you’re a liar, liar, liar.

I will run, I will fight,
I will take you through the night lie, lie, liar,
I will run, I will fight,
I will take you through the night lie, lie, liar…

Say it if you want to,
And say it if you choose
But if you don’t say what you are thinkin’
No I won’t take too kindly to it

When all I want is something different
And you could’t give it to me
And all you do is lie to me
So you’re a liar, liar, liar.

I will run, I will fight,
I will take you through the night lie, lie, liar,
I will run, I will fight,
I will take you through the night lie, lie, liar…

I’ll fight you, I’ll fight you
I’m fighing you
Liar, liar, liar
You know you’re a liar,
Liar…

So free for the moment
Lost somewhere between the earth and the sky
So free for the moment
Lost because I wanna be lost
Don’t try to find me

Always try to breeze through my life
Repetitious things I’ve done one million times
Who are you to tell me that I’ll always be this way
I close my eyes and I turn around
And leave it all behind

What could I do
It’s not such a terrible thing
What would you do
It’s not such a terrible thing

So free for the moment
Lost somewhere between the earth and the sky
So free for the moment
Lost because I wanna be lost
So free for the moment
Lost somewhere between the earth and the sky
So free for the moment
Lost because I wanna be lost
Don’t try to find me

in the air I’m sensing a change in the weather
in the end the path is clear
does anyone remember here
did you all think he’d just disappear
crazy life
what have you done with Peltier
who did you think you’d taken away
crazy life

in the air I’m sensing a change in the weather
in the end the path is clear

burying won’t stop it breathing forever
underground it takes to root

anyway, it don’t seem right
he is in there and you’re on the outside
what have you done with Peltier
who did you think you’d taken away
it’s not over…

And bright,
bright,
bright as yellow,
warm as yellow.

And I do not want to be a rose.
I do not wish to be pale pink,
but flower scarlet, flower gold.
And have no thorns to distance me,

but be bright,
bright,
bright as yellow,
warm as yellow.

Even if I’m shouting, even if I’m shouting here inside.
Even if I’m shouting, do you see that I’m wanting,
that I want to be so
bright,
bright,
bright as yellow,
warm as yellow.

But you’re making amends
To your circle of friends
And you’re trying to fit me to their mold
Yeah you’re making amends
To your circle of friends
And you’re trying to fit me to their mold

When you’re trying to make decisions
When you try to water this thing down
Look up once in a while
You’ll see it’s not so clear
The things you believe in
Are the things that’s worth keeping
Make a promise, stand right by your word

Your circle of friends
Your circle of friends
Your circle of friends

Whole lotta trouble, baby.
Whole lotta trouble, baby.
Whole lotta trouble, in this life.

Work and you could have your money,
but that don’t guarantee you’re right.

In the morning the sun comes up.
In the evening the sun goes down.
Did you that I could look alive
when everything was dying
in this cold dark town.

Some folks just think you’re starting over.
They take a lifetime to decide.

What you are
Is the voice behind that dream

Sleeping quiet I float in the air
Searching for you there
Miles and miles away from your touch
Aching everywhere

Ain’t no one goin to turn me round
Ain’t no one goin to turn me round

People round you tell you that they know
The places they have been, and it’s easy to go
They’ll zip you up and dress you down, and stand you in their role
You know you don’t have to
You can just say no

And there ain’t no one goin to turn me round
Ain’t no one goin to turn me round
Ain’t no one goin to turn me round
Ain’t no one goin to turn me round

I’ve been built up and trusted
Broke down and busted
They’ll get theirs and we’ll get ours if you can just
Hold on
Hold on

Years ago my heart was set to live on
And I’ve been tryin hard against unbelievable odds
Gets so hard at times like now to hold on
Gonna fall if I don’t fight it
And at my side is God

Ain’t no one goin to turn me round
Ain’t no one goin to turn me round
Ain’t no one goin to turn me round
Ain’t no one goin to turn me round

sugarhigh…
gotta have it really need it to get by
sugarhigh…
wanna feel it can’t conceal it
sugarhigh

I could go out and not even leave the house
a TV set and a bottle of wine, just fine
crashing out on that old pull out couch
watching saturday night live
I guess that’s why
I feel so funny deep inside
I wanna kiss myself goodbye

when I think about my life
I wanna kiss myself goodbye

I… far and wide
I’ve explored the deepest caverns of my mind
to try and find an explanation why
I get this funny feeling deep inside
when I think about my life
I wanna kiss myself goodbye

sugarhigh…
gotta have it really need it to get by
sugarhigh…
I wanna feel it can’t conceal it makes me high
sugarhigh…
need it now I’ve got to live until I die
sugarhigh…
can you feel it, can you feel it
sugarhigh

They took the credit for your second symphony.
Rewritten by machine and new technology,
and now I understand the problems you can see.

I met your children

What did you tell them?
Video killed the radio star.
Video killed the radio star.

Pictures came and broke your heart.

And now we meet in an abandoned studio.
We hear the playback and it seems so long ago.
And you remember the jingles used to go.

You were the first one.
You were the last one.

Video killed the radio star.
Video killed the radio star.
In my mind and in my car, we can’t rewind we’ve gone to far

Video killed the radio star.
Video killed the radio star.

In my mind and in my car, we can’t rewind we’ve gone to far.
Pictures came and broke your heart, put the blame on VTR.

You are a radio star.
You are a radio star.
Video killed the radio star.
Video killed the radio star.
Video killed the radio star.
Video killed the radio star.

And she calls him Little Bastard
And she says it to his face
And he says,»Don’t call me Little Bastard,
Call me Snake».

Little Bastard
Has a re-occuring dream
That he’s a pirate
On a sea of snakes
And when the waves come
You can listen to him scream
As the tide runs
Down his leg

Little Bastard
All fish-belly white
Wears gym trunks
And a tank-top shirt
When his grandma
Sees him playing with a knife
She says,»Put that down
You’re gonna get hurt».

Must of been late afternoon
On our way the sun broke free of the clouds
We count only blue cars
Skip the cracks, in the street
And ask many questions
Like children often do
We said,
Tell me all your thoughts on God
‘Cause I would really like to meet her.
And ask her why we’re who we are.
Tell me all your thoughts on God,
Cause I am on my way to see her.
So tell me am I very far —
Am I very far now?

Its getting cold picked up the pace
How our shoes make hard noises in this place
Our clothes are stained
We pass many, cross eyed people
And ask many questions
Like children often do

Tell me all your thoughts on God
‘Cause I would really like to meet her.
And ask her why we’re who we are.
Tell me all your thoughts on God?
‘Cause I am on my way to see her.
So tell me am I very far?
Am I very far now
Am I very far now
Am I very far now

a lovestruck romeo sings a streetsuss serenade
laying everybody low with a lovesong that he made
finds a convenient streetlight steps out of the shade
says something like you and me babe how about it?

juliet says hey it’s romeo
you nearly gimme a heart attack
he’s underneath the window
she’s singing hey la my boyfriend’s back
you shoudn’t come around here
singing up at people like that
anyway what you gonna do about it?

juliet the dice were loaded from the start
and I bet and you exploded in my heart
and I forget I forget the movie song
when you gonna realize
it was just that the time was wrong juliet?

come up on different streets they both were streets of shame
both dirty both mean yes and the dream was just the same
and I dreamed your dream for you and now your dream is real
how can you look at me as I was just another one of your deals?

when you can fall for chains of silver
you can fall for chains of gold
you can fall for pretty strangers and the promises they hold
you promised me everything you promised me thick and thin
now you just say oh romeo yeah
you know I used to have a scene with him

juliet when we made love you used to cry
you said I love you like the stars above I’ll love you till I die
there’s a place for us you know the movie song
when you gonna realize it was just that the time was wrong?

I can’t do the talk like they talking on the TV
and I can’t do a love song like the way its meant to be
I can’t do everything but I’d do anything for you
I can’t do anything except be in love with you

and all I do is miss you and the way we used to be
all I do is keep the beat and bad company
all I do is kiss you through the bars of a rhyme
julie I’d do the stars with you any time

juliet when we made love you used to cry
you said I love you like the stars above I’ll love you till I die
there’s a place for us you know the movie song
when you gonna realize it was just that the time was wrong?

a lovestruck romeo sings a streetsuss serenade
laying everybody low with a lovesong that he made
finds a convenient streetlight steps out of the shade
says something like you and me babe how about it?

Never before
never again
you will ignore
I will pretend

Your world, you’re alone in your place
your alone in your world
your alone in your place

Oh you said you never would leave me alone
oh you said you never would leave me alone

Now you’re just walking away
when you said you always would stay
always would stay

Saddam
They shall drown in their own blood!
Hail Saddam a go-go!

Going to Saddam a go-go
Everybody is there
Business of strange bed fellows
Makes you dance around like a bear
Ein, Schwein, kick him in the eye
Teamed up with the Asian eye
They were the ones
Who could rise with the sun
As they lived in their planes
And they died [repeat a lot!]
How they died…

Hail!
The running paper tiger chases its own tail
Hail Saddam a go-go

He was someone who was there for people like me
Hi there Saddam, loved the party
Yes they’re all here with me
Bloody Saddam
Loves you always, always a kick
Bloody Saddam
Even though the smell is making me sick
As we sit on our roofs
And cheer as your scuds fall like rain

Here at the ancient ziggaraunt
Saddam is presiding there
Running around with a saxophone
Where is the president, where?
Here it comes, the black tornado
Let’s have a cheer for Sarajevo
If you survive what falls out of his mind
You’ll make the political world
