ANY FULE KNO THAT
If you're in the right city
at the right time
What's the last thing
going through your mind?
Not talking 'bout your ask no
questions, you know it's a lie
You could have been the victim
of a corporate crime
All the signs of a shark attack
you've got rivers of blood
On the streets don't look back
Nothing personal
just another snack
'n Harley said you're better off
sticking to your guns

Any fule kno that

Oh Moronica Queen of the Biz
And her friend Flash Harry thinks
he knows what it is
Tin Pan Alley, Fat Head Larry don't
know shit
Just trying to keep her happy
There's no laughing in Heaven
Not the one not the seven
And you'll never get to heaven
in her row boat
Pea brain pisser
Dog breath kisser
'n Harley said you're better off sticking to your guns

Any fule kno that

Won't it be nice
When everything falls into place?

Salad days go a-trickling by
have a high time
burn money in the meantime
they bleed you dry
Those suckers are
smaller than life
Oh Moronica Queen of the Biz
And her friend Flash Harry thinks
he knows what it is
Tin Pan Alley, Fat Head Larry don't
know shit
I'm better off sticking
to my guns

Any fule kno that

Won't it be nice
When everything falls into place?

Danny went down to
the river one day
Didn't come back
that's the last they say
We ever saw of him that's no lie
Spitting in your eye have no fear
You don't want the truth
stick your finger in your ear

Any fule kno that

ALMOST HUMAN
I know you're the only
one who understands
Afore ye go, before you leave
You always shake my hand
Even when I'm crazy
On fire and naked
Just as Nature intended
No style but easily blended

You always know where
I'll be found
Hanging somewhere
near the ground
Help me up or help me down

Don't want to lose those days
When everything is just a
haze I'm dreaming

I believe I could walk before I
learned to crawl
When I look up
the Devil's looking back
From the mirror on the wall
You can open the door
Got my feet stuck to the floor
I may have lost my way
But I didn't get where I am today

Don't want to lose those days
When everything is just a
haze I'm dreaming
You spin into my empty room
And once again
I'm almost human
Almost human

DON’T MAKE ME HAPPY
You stare into the room
nothing there but space
No sign of any message gone
without a trace
But I don't want your pity if
that's what you think
I'll take my comfort from this
hole I'm sinking in
Waste my time, drink my wine,
take my money
That's alright, I don't mind but
don't try to be funny

Don't make me good
Don't make me mad
Don't make me fly
Don't make me happy

It's nice here in this room you
would like it, yes you would
It's got a bed, two chairs and a
table, I'd leave here if I could
There's a man standing up who's
down on his knees
Outside the cold wind sends a
shiver through the trees
On the line, left behind
under pressure
It's so bad, leave me be, I don't
want to get better

Don't make me good
Don't make me mad
Don't make me fly
Don't make me happy

I don't care what you think
but think about this
It could have been somebody
else, beware of what you wish
Now the door is closed,
locked and sealed
And now you think you know
how rejection feels
Waste my time, drink my wine,
take my money
That's alright, I don't mind but
don't try to be funny

Don't make me good
Don't make me mad
Don't make me fly
Don't make me happy

SEVENTH HEAVEN
I've been to places where
the sun goes down
each day and never rises
I've been to places in
a dark room
where we played
with our disguises

Heaven
I'm in heaven
I'm in seventh heaven now
Seventh heaven

It was a dream I heard a voice
I put it down to wishful thinking
It was a dream a silent scream
out of the blue a new beginning

Heaven
I'm in heaven
I'm in seventh heaven now
Seventh heaven

And then I fell upon
a stroke of luck
that led to my good fortune
And then I fell upon my knees
and gently kissed the ground
you walk on

Heaven
I'm in heaven
I'm in seventh heaven now
Seventh heaven

WATCHING THE SKY
I sit here alone
I sit here alone
I look at the walls
Look at the walls
Look at the walls
I look at the walls

You shouldn't be out on your
own oh no not with
a condition like that
oh no sir constant care
A condition like that
a condition so rare a penny
for the guy a penny for your
thoughts one a penny
two a penny penny in
your pocket ding dong bell, who
can tell Wild Man Fisher
got nothing on me

I sit by the water
I sit by the water
Watch it go by
Clouds going by
I'm watching the sky

I left my luggage at the station
Didn't know how to
say goodbye
I walked away from all the fury
and the madness and the fury
and the madness and the fury
and the madness

I smile to myself
I smile to myself

You're on the blind side I'm on
the other side now I'm on the
outside looking for another side
upside down side I'm still lucid I
may be crazy but I'm not stupid
try to get out the parking lot's
full no matter no matter what's
a man going to do one two
buckle my shoe zip my lip

FINGERS TO THE BONE
Everything went wrong
I'm sorry boys I've got to
let you go
We've had some hard times and
the long rain, it didn't show
Hired hands I've seen them
come and go
but you don't come much better
Today's blue Monday I just got
a bad news letter

This day has come
the darkest cloud on our horizon
My hands are tied down to that
promise note I signed upon
Always been this way
it's the poor man who gets hurt
All you ever work for is to leave
your footprints in the dirt

You work your fingers
to the bone

The deed is done
the fruit will fall
to someone else's hand
That's how the land lies
now we all know where
we stand
You'll have to walk away
don't let them see you running
Today's Blue Monday, I should
have seen it coming

You work your fingers
to the bone

If sweat and tears were
all it took
to make this valley green
We'd be alright but now it's
gone they've taken everything
They say it's just an act of God
And that's the way
ill wind blows
You've got thirty days
to pack your bags
say goodbye, hit the road

You work your fingers to the bone

JACK RUBY
There's no method in
my madness
No craft no guile
No expertise
No self assuring smile
No wizardry or witchcraft
No crass deceit
No dark conspiracies I stand on
my own two feet
I'm coming through
just like Jack Ruby

I'm ragged around the edges
But I got control
There's no way around it
And I got control
I reach out for my program
Still got control
Straight down to business
Who needs control
I've got panache
Just like Jack Ruby

I don't beg forgiveness
I don't beg at all
But I beg to differ
Cos I got the ball
There was no invitation
You're not my type
and what's gone
It ain't worth having
Kiss it all goodbye
Right on the money
Just like Jack Ruby

SHE WAS
She was she was
She was all that she said she was
She was all that she said she was
I couldn't want for more
But all I want is more
I just want her more and more
and more and more and more
But she's untouchable

And I lay my head down
I lay my head down
And then she's lovable

Who were you with last night?
Who were you with last night?
Were you thinking of me?
And were you thinking of me?
Unforgivable sin unforgivable sin
Unforgivable
You're untouchable

And I lay my head down
I lay my head down

She coming my way
She coming my way
I don't know what to say
She coming my way
She fading away
She fading away
And I lay my head down
I lay my head down

WHATSERNAME
Unforgettable face
I can't think of her name
It's on the edge of my tongue
Gathering dust in the
back of my brain
Something 'bout the way
she ignores me
That's vaguely familiar
Makes you wonder what it was
you ever did to thrill her

Here we go again
Here we go again
Here I go again

I never felt the need to soothe
her savage breast
She never felt obliged to tell me
of her change of address
Caught me on a downward swing
but I fell through her arms
How could I be so careless
I never meant to go so far

Here we go again
Here we go again
Here I go again

Oh she's back in town
Oh she's back in town
I'm not leaving I'm running away

She took it all away
Now she's back for the rest
Took it all so easy
Wouldn't settle for less
She doesn't know what
she wants
But she knows how to get it
I can't remember the time
she never let me forget it

Here we go again
Here we go again
Here I go again

Oh Whatsername's back in town
She's back in town
I'm not leaving I'm running away
Oh she's back in town
Oh she's back in town
I'm not leaving I'm running away

‘69
Flying through the night
In a beat up wagon
A mike stand up my jacksy
Give me a beer
And I'll stand on a chair
And slip into something sexy
Black Cat Woolwich
The Tiger's Head
The Cafe des Artistes
The Revolution
And the Bag O' Nails

I'll see you down the Speak'
Your Ma said you slept real good
In your food last night
But you couldn't hold it down
And you broke up
a damn good fight
Ligging at the Old Marquee
Spinning Jack a line
Even he knew better than me
Back in sixty nine

Sixty nine, sixty nine,
Sixty nine, sixty nine

On the road to Paradiso
Back of your head
Got to pay some dues
Rugged looked down
As the Thames swallowed
His life at the Boathouse, Kew
Hot girls, no AC
Cheap TV,
Sleep on the floor
Hallelujah what's a roadie
Hush my baby
Sleep no more

EVIL LOUIE
Some say the state of Texas
Could accommodate the entire
human population
Five point six billion versions of
the truth under one roof
Some revelation
Take a bit of this give a
bit of that
Put it in a blender pull it
out a hat
There's no going back it's a lie
it's a fact
Has the cat got your tongue
Been too long in the sun
There's dust on your tracks
There's no going back

Come to think of it's a
load of monkeys
every time you listen to your
sun kissed lover's words
Evil Louie is tomorrow's sadness
It's a game of madness in a
perfect world

Some would say French cuisine's
more appealing
than a cold drink
burgers and fries
Some have said that a
pillar of society
An upright citizen's incapable of
lust and crime
Tale a bit of this
give a bit of that
Put it in a blender pull
it out a hat
But he don't stand a change
With his pants around his ankles
Has the cat got your tongue
Been too long in the sun
There's dust on your tracks
There's no going back

BLUDSUCKER
Gotta black breast Chinese eyes
Got an English brain that's gonna make me wise
Got a long story that I wanna tell
To a rhythm that I know so well
Really got a lot of lovin' that I wanna give
Baby I'm a mystery, but you know I gotta live
I tried another but she didn't want to know
Oh, no no no

Take a hold now if you can
Take a lesson from a hard lovin' man
I'm a long way from where I wanna go
Guess I'll stay a while I really love you so
How's about another sip of all that wine you got
Take a tip from me and give it here I'll drink the lot
I'm not a winey, I'm a puttin' on a show
Oh, no no no

You really really grab me but I've gotta move
Before they know I'm here and spread the news
Maybe in while when I've moved around
I can find a way to pay you back your twenty pounds
Really got a lot of lovin' that I wanna give
Baby I'm a mystery, but you know I gotta live
I tried another but she didn't want to know
Oh, no no no

Gotta black breast Chinese eyes
Got an English brain that's gonna make me wise
Got a long story that I wanna tell
To a rhythm that I know so well
Really got a lot of lovin' that I wanna give
Baby I'm a mystery, but you know I gotta live
I tried another but she didn't want to know
Oh, no no no
Oh, no no no
Oh no
