Welcome sir won’t you step right in
I’ll take your coat as I give you my best grin
We have it all for the new high flier
Whiskey, Vodka, to fulfil your heart’s desire
Willkommen mein Herr
Welcome to our lair
Come and meet your future ex wife
Your future trouble and strife
Come on and take my advice
Add a little risk to your life
Here she is your future ex wife
Your future sugar and spice
high heels and everything nice
Trouble but worth the high price
Hello gorgeous, buy a girl a drink?
Something bubbly, soft but tall and slightly pink
Something sweet that clashes with my hair
Something I can use to toast our short affair
Look into my eyes
Enter paradise
Let me be your future ex wife
Your future trouble and strife
I’ll help you reach the next life
Poorer but a little streetwise
Here I am your future ex wife
Your future trouble and strife
A crisis for your midlife
Relax and give up the fight
Welcome sir won’t you step right in -Welcome Sir let your life begin

Welcome to my World
02:51
|
|||
I woke up, on the wrong side of a bottle
I looked it in the eye
I wished it a good morning
No reply
I got up, tried to find my trousers
was searching low and high
found them in the garbage
Don't know why
Well I said, oh take me home
Then I thought, damn, where's my home
Welcome to my world
Please be warned it's mildly absurd
Welcome to my world
Please come in and play
Welcome to my world
Though you may be shaken and stirred
Welcome to my world
Please come in and stay
I went out, tried to find my car
I'd left it there last night
But God knows where I'd parked it
Can't be right
Went back in, said hi to a young lady
Who asked me if she might
Call me a bit later
Don't know why
And I thought, oh take me home
Then I thought, damn why go home
Welcome to my World …

Tea & Sympathy
02:59
|
|||
Waterloo on Sunday evening as his train departs
longingly she looks on waving with a heavy heart
Oh oh oh
There he goes
Where God knows
She needs some sympathy
Bye so long
Life goes on
Ever on
With Tea and sympathy
Not hard to remember their first meeting long ago
Husband on her arm their eyes met as they said hello
Oh oh oh
The seeds were sown
But time has flown
And now she needs Sympathy
Who to tell?
Of this lonely hell
Just herself
For Tea and Sympathy
Bye so long
Life goes on
Ever on
And now She needs sympathy
Oh oh oh
Oh oh oh
Oh oh oh
Tea and Sympathy

To Live or Live Not
03:25
|
|||
Gonna rent my house out to a stranger
Gonna let them treat it like their own
Gonna move abroad and try some danger
Gonna try a taste of the unknown
I’ve spent my whole life being safe and steady
Now it's time to roll the dice
To live or live not
That is the question
To Love or love not
Before my times up
To lose the whole plot
Let's skip confession
To Sin or sin not
I've made my mind up
Gonna catch the first plane to Caracas
Why go somewhere that’s far too safe
Gonna find a girl who plays maracas
Gonna ask her out with all her mates
And we'll go dancing till the sun comes up
Sleep all day then start again
To live or live not
Start the ignition
To give all I've got
Let's seize the day
Let's stop the rot
C-carpe diem
To Dare or dare not
That's what I say

The Grim Reaper
03:39
|
|||
Hear me singing these old fashioned songs
All designed to make him sing along
See him lurking always out of sight
Never welcome, not at all contrite
Hey you, what you gonna do now
We’re gonna have a party
Sling your hook, we’re going to live for ever
And Hey you, stay all night if you like
And join in with the party
The DJ’s here, playing “Don't Fear the Reaper”
Well hey, hey, hey, hey
Jez would say
Party on
And hey, hey, hey hey
Let’s all play
All night long
Hey you, what you gonna do now
You know that you’re not welcome
Get your coat, no one’s going home with you
Well hey, hey, hey, hey
Jez would say
Party on
And hey, hey, hey hey
Let’s all play
All night long
Well Hey, Gaz would say
What a day
Goodbye So long

For All We Know
03:06
|
|||
I’m pretty sure I’ll never forget what’s his name
The man who told me son life’s just one big game
And for all we know
The ref is playing extra time
For all we know the fat lady’s ready to sing
And all I know for sure
You’d better get them in
So what’s his name said Duncan let me ask you mate
Is this the final chorus or still the middle 8
For all we know Nelson’s asked for one last kiss
For all we know Meg and Tom have finally met
And all I know for sure
You’d better get them in
And as the curtain falls we’ll all be there singing “one more song, let’s have one more song”
But in the meantime as we wend our way let’s all be merry

Oh What a Lovely Day
03:46
|
|||
I watched a ship sailing by
I watched it sail to the sky
A sky of emerald blue
I watched it sail by with you
And oh what a lovely day
Yeah oh what a lovely day
Gorgeous in every way
Oh what a lovely day
We caught the bus to the beach
Ate strawberries and cream for tea
Nothing seemed out of reach
Said why don't you live with me
Oh what a lovely day
Yeah oh what a lovely day
Magical Any way
Oh oh oh what a lovely day
Well the days got shorter as the nights started drawing in
But we could still look back on those days with the sun on our skin
Time spent laughing as we walked hand in hand like twins
Days of magic for two lovers with a life to begin

02:50
|
|||
Hey here I go
Well I’m a rockstar don’t you know
And Hey I’m as old as the hills
But I’m a Big Head and that’s the drill
I’m out on my own
And no one can catch me baby

I Monkee around
Like it’s 1966
I’m hot as a twin Three way
Well hey Didn’t I do well
A legend in my lunchtime can’t you tell
And Hey maybe you don’t know me
But I’m a Big Head can’t you see

Don't Blame Yourself
04:18
|
|||
Well the pimps sat drinking Rum and cola light
As the Whores kept working, working through the night
And the band kept playing, playing through the fight
And they all agreed they’d all seen better days
Yeah they all agreed that those were better days
Blame it on Marek, blame it on Henrik
Blame it on oh oh everyone else
Blame Angelino, and poor old Diego
But oh oh don’t blame yourself
Well the politicians talked all day and night
But no one spoke up to do the thing that’s right
They all kept looking, at the polls in fright
And they all agreed they’d all seen better days
Yeah they all agreed that those were better days
Blame Isabella, blame Angelica
Blame it on oh oh everyone else
Blame it on Herman, blame every German
But no oh don’t blame yourself

Came the Day
02:22
|
|||
Came the day you Came my way
I couldn’t have known just how much trouble I’d be in
Then everyday in every way
Your whirlwind blew and sent my world into a spin
OOh ooh ooh ooh
Like a fool I smiled and rushed right in
OOh ooh ooh ooh
And like a fool My pride’s left shredded in the wind
And everyday I hoped and prayed
But Helpless trying to mend the wreckage that you hid
OOh ooh ooh ooh
Like a fool I smiled and rushed right in
OOh ooh ooh ooh
And like a fool I played the game I couldn’t win
Came the day you went away
I couldn’t have known just how much trouble I’d be in

Little Miss Understood
03:00
|
|||
She Ain't gonna be sad and lonely a-a-a-a-all the time
Ain't gonna be on her only cry-y-y-ying in her prime
No point in always hiding wha-a-at she feels inside
Right now she's gonna be riding hi-i-i-i-i-i-igh
Little Miss I'll be good has packed and gone away
Now she’s Miss out for good but she won't miss out today
Little Miss Understood queen of the parade
Little Miss Take it all is no mistake today
Little Miss Understood no hiding in the shade
Little Miss speak her mind will blow them away
She ain't gonna hold back from saying wha-a-a-a-at’s on her mind
Those days have gone where she stays qui-i-i-ietly confined
The human race can know just how-ow-ow she’s been designed
If they mind she don't class them par-ar-art of humankind
Little Miss placed her life is now in the right place
Now she's Miss in your face and winning her own race
Little Miss Understood queen of the parade
Little Miss Take it all is no mistake today
Little Miss Understood no hiding in the shade
Little Miss speak her mind will blow them away
Ain't gonna be sad and lonely Little Miss Understood
Ain’t gonna be on her only Little Miss Understood
Ahh Ahhh Little Miss Understood
She's gonna be so unholy now

Dave

Dave's on the road again like every other day
playing his music on the way
He plays it to make him feel alive as he would say
He’s going to beat this thing OK
Life’s been good so far he can say he’s blessed
He’s had some bonus years and that’s success
So what tomorrow will bring, it will bring, who can say
And so he lives for today, in every way, and that’s the way he’ll stay
He walks in the hospital like every other day
Says hi to the nurses on the way
He waits for the news to see if everything’s ok
He feels in his bones it is today
The tests are good they say he’s clear for now
A lease of life he’ll celebrate and how
So what tomorrow will bring, it will bring, who can say
And so he lives for today, in every way, and that’s the way he’ll stay
He’ll stay strong, if he may, and that’s the way, he’ll be ok
He’ll fight for life, with all his might, and with all his might
He’ll seize the day

Jealousy
03:16
|
|||
Everything's just fine
Everything is outta sight
And then the green eyed monster came along
Spoiling for a fight
Looking for the slightest sleight
Looking for a right to be made wrong
Jealousy
Jealousy
Insecurity
Jealousy
Watching all your moves
Waiting for a point to prove
Insecure in everything they do
Trying on your clothes
What they think God only knows
Your bunny's boiling fiercely on their stove
Jealousy
Jealousy
Insecurity
Jealousy
Oh I'll push right on with my own life
And leave them behind
They can rewrite history all they like
I really don't mind
It’s so much better now alright?
Yeah I'm OK
Getting better each day
Not going back no way
Everything's just fine
Everything is outta sight
The green eyed monster's dead now any way
