The One

They said it’s over
When Stephen left high school
Too long spent messing
Staying away and playing the fool
They said it’s crazy
Drumming in a band
No good being hopeful
Playing all those one night stands
But now he’s the one
Yeah he’s the one
Having the fun
Being the one
Playing in the sun
Yeah he’s the one
Having the fun
Being the one
Back home for now
And everyone’s his friend
They all remember
Saying he’d make it in the end
No doubt about it
He’s really riding high
New boots and panties
Anything he wants to try
And now he’s the one……
Now everything is alright
Now everything is wonderful
Now everything is altogether bright
Now he’s the one……

Thinking

Well I’ve been thinking
Thinkin that I’d better get better
Better at bein a bit better
Whenever, She needs me
And I’ve been thinking
Thinking bout writing her a letter
Writing her a letter just to let her
Know forever that I care
Thinkin bout all the times I wasn’t there
Thinkin bout all the times I didn’t care
Thinkin bout all the times I was unfair
Times I vanished in thin air
Disappeared to God knows where
And I’ve been thinking
Thinking bout maybe just quittin
Quitin my lying and drinkin
And thinking about her
Thinkin bout all the times I wasn’t there
Thinkin bout all the times I didn’t care
Thinkin bout all the times I was unfair
Times I vanished in thin air
Disappeared to God knows where
Well I’ve been thinking
Thinking bout her and maybe whether
whether we’ll just talk about the weather
or whether she’ll keep me
And maybe whether I’ll be better than I’ve been
Oh yeah whether I’ll be better when she needs me

I'm leaving rehab till another day
There's too much fun going on around anyway
They never sleep as far as I can see
They're mixing cocktails and they're naming them after me
Don't need much money cos the drinks are free
Hey everybody they're on me
Clash City Rockers is the only place I wanna be
Hey Montevideo Oh oh oh o
Hey Montevideo Yeah yeah
Hey Montevideo
You'll be the end of me
I should've been in bed hours ago
where the time goes when your having fun I don't know
My head is dizzy and my knees are weak
Its getting light outside but its too early to sleep
They all go crazy when the sun goes down
Who needs the daylight anyway
There's only one thing on my mind and I've gotta say
Hey Montevideo Oh oh oh o
Hey Montevideo Yeah yeah
Hey Montevideo
You'll be the end of me
And now I'm half a world away
Telling myself going back there one day
Yeah I'm half a world away.........
What can I say
Going one day
Going to stay

Too Late

Faded Photograph
How we used to laugh
But we rowed instead
Said things best not said
And it got too late
Yeah it got too late
Oh it got too late
Babe its just too late
Getting over you
Getting over you
Not what I can do
Getting over you
Cos it’s got too late
Yeah it’s got too late
Babe it’s got too late
Oh its got too late
Yeah it’s got too late
Oh it’s got too late
Yeah it got too late
Oh it’s just too late
Faded Photograph
Sometime in the past
When we were complete
When the world was sweet
But it got too late
Yeah it got too late
Oh it got too late
Babe its just too late

His Name
03:26
|
|||
Cold Night, out alone
Head down, on her way from home
Street light, waiting there
On his bike, a Norton bathed in Chrome
Every evening they meet by that light
Walking in the park on Sundays
Secret rendevous out on his bike
Still she never really knew his name
Cold Night, he's not there
Street light, standing tall and bare
Whisper, in her ear
Don't look back, I'll always be here
Suddenly a newspaper blows by
Boy killed on a Triumph Norton
Seemed there was a street light caught his eye
It said they didn't really know his name
She thought she heard his whisper in the dark
Standing by that lonely streetlight
Thought she saw his shadow in the park
Still she never really knew his name

Gotta Call Simone
03:44

All alone in a foreign town
Pretty girls are running all around
On the beach and everywhere
Girls parading in their underwear
Everywhere that I turn
Pretty Girls are making my eyes burn
Got an itch and I've got it bad
And It’s the badest one I've ever had
I said ooh ooh ooh
Don't know what I'm gonna do
I said Ooh ooh ooh
I’m Going crazy need a shot of you
I gotta call Simone
Get her on the telephone
I Gotta call Simone
But nobody's home
I gotta call Simone
Get her on the telephone
I Gotta call Simone
Cos I'm all alone
Out at night and its still no good
Girls are running round the neighbourhood
Everywhere that I look
Pretty girls have got me on their hook
Everywhere that I turn
Pretty Girls still making my eyes burn
Still Got an itch and I've still got it bad
It’s still the badest one I've ever had
ooh ooh ooh
Don't know what I'm gonna do
Ooh ooh ooh
I’m Going crazy need a shot of you
I gotta call Simone
Get her on the telephone
I Gotta call Simone
But nobody's home
I gotta call Simone
Get her on the telephone
I Gotta call Simone
Cos I'm on my own

If It's What You Want
02:35
|

if its what you want
And if its what you need
I'll give you what you want
If you'll just let me off my knees
You’ve got to let me know
I'm begging darling please
I'll give you all I own
If you'll just let me off my knees
I've got to be so strong
If you say no to me
If everything goes wrong
And I'm just left here on my knees
Everything you want
Everything you need
You'll find it here in me
If you'll just let me off my knees
I've got to be so strong
If you say no to me
If everything goes wrong
And I'm just left here on my knees
Everything you want
Everything you need
You'll find it here in me
If you'll just let me off my knees
If you'll just let me off my knees

Wardour Street on Monday Night
He's walking quick and feeling alright
He's buzzing and hopes he might
Get lucky with you
The Marquee' s hotter than hell
Its rammed and just to speak you must yell
He doesn't want to break the spell
And so acts cool
Seventy Seven
Teenage Heaven
Seventy Seven
He’s there with You
Seventy Seven
Better than Ever
Seventy Seven
Its all he wants to do
Later and the Speakeasy's full
Everybody's looking real cool
He's hoping he won't be a fool
So he’ll get lucky with you
Lemmy's on the fruit machine
Speeding on more than caffeine
The boy’s trying to blend in the scene
and impress you too
Seventy Seven……
Its 3 am the lights show up the grime
Its time to head out on the street
She turns to him his heart beats overtime
She says will you come back with me?
Seventy Seven…..

All Fall Down
03:22
|
|||
So we all came running home again
At the end of 4 long days
Yeah we all came running home again
Bruised and battered from the fray
And we all had things to think about
As we went our separate ways
Regrets and schemes to think about
And nothing said to save the day
now we're all going nowhere very slowly
Slowly getting there
And We're all left thinking how unholy
a mess without a prayer
So we all came running home again
To go our separate ways
All left losers in the game
with those who loved and gave us praise
Nothing ever lasts for ever
Nothing really comes for free
And when you see what caused your anger
You'll realise it wasn't me
So we all fall down
Yeah we all fall down
all fall down
Little boys all lost at sea
Nothing ever lasts for ever
Nothing really comes for free
It's only when it's really over
You realise it's not to be
So we all fall down
Yeah we all fall down
All Fall Down

Shot in the Back
03:22
|

Wide awake on a brand new morning
Heaven sent without a warning
She's there
Hard Stare
All at once my legs are jelly
Dizzy head and dehli belly
Hold tight
stay upright
But she's got me down on my knees again
Lost in the rush for her hand
I was
Shot in the back
Everyone wants her
Shot in the back
They'll all kill for her
Shot in the back
Got to be near her
Caught in the flak
Can't live without her
Shot in the back
Things are getting scary
Shot in the Back
Got to be wary
Shot in the back
Say a hail Mary
Caught in the flak
Nothing can help me
Long blond hair, perfumed aroma
Just one look I'm in a coma
Heart stop
Makes my Knees drop
With a word she can command me
Make me smile or reprimand me
Do wap
makes my eyes pop
And she's got me down on my knees again
Giving her all that I can
But Iwas
Shot in the back….
And she's got me down on my knees again
Lost in the rush for her hand
And I was
Shot in the back….

Aren't Women Wonderful
03:39
|

Always there when you need someone to hold you
Always there when you need someone to care
Always there when you need someone who knows you
Always there when you’re feeling small and scared
I said ooh ooh, ooh ooh, ooh ooh
Aren’t Women Wonderfull
Always there when you need somebody
Smiling eyes who’s kind and cuddly
Someone who can make the heavy light
Always there when you need someone
Soft and warm but bright and good fun
Someone who can make it all alright
I said ooh ooh, ooh ooh, ooh ooh
Aren’t Women Wonderfull
Always there when you need someone to scold you
Always there when you need telling off
Always there when you need your own sweet angel angel
Like a girl about who you’d write this song
I said ooh ooh, ooh ooh, ooh ooh
Aren’t Women Wonderfull
Always there when you’re in trouble
Need some help she’ll give you double
Always there to help and understand
Quite prepared to burst your bubble
But haul you out from all the rubble
When your world feels like its tumbling down
I said ooh ooh, ooh ooh, ooh ooh
Aren’t Women Wonderfull
I said ooh ooh, ooh ooh, ooh ooh
Aren’t Women Wonderfull

Rolling On
03:11
|

It was another age
Beatles on TV
Football in the street
All my friends and me
We Played there all day long
We were all in clover
Nothing could go wrong
Time just rolling on
Well a small town's cool
Till you reach 16
Till the sirens call
From a brighter scene
So I packed my bags
and I moved to London
For a bright new dawn
Time just rolling on
Well I found a job
In a factory
Where I made some friends
Played guitar like me
and we formed a band
We were all in clover
Nothing could go wrong
Time just rolling on
But life moves on
New things become important
New Horizons call
To spur you on
Busy making plans for the future
While time keeps rolling on
So I'm sitting here
looking back on life
my daughter's all grown up
Still got a lovely wife
And Everything’s just fine
Everything’s in Clover
When all is said and done
Time's just rolling on
When all is said and done
Time's just rolling on

Don’t know how I’m gonna tell my wife
Facebook’s full of girls trying to get in my life
They’re writing on my wall saying I’m the one
I think I’m gonna have to go on the run
Yeah They’re dreaming about me
Yeah Yeah Yeah Yeah They’re dreaming about me
Things are really going from bad to worse
There’s a new group out there who are posting me verse
Everyday there’s some giving me a poke
Only trouble is that they’re all blokes

April Fool
02:53
|

Thought I had a girl as sweet as pie
Lips like honey
Apple of my eye
Thought I had a girl to be proud of
who’d tell those other guys
where to get off
April Fool
Thought I had the girl of my dreams
Long legged tutti frutti
Peaches & cream
Thought I had a girl who was so sweet
Rub my tummy
Bring me things to eat
Never thought I'd be the one to end up moaning like John Plain
Don't know how but I'm sounding just the same
Writing songs about the girl who's gone off with the other guy
Getting drunk in the pub and wondering why
Thought I had a girl who was devine
Cheeks like Cherry blossom
Kiss like Wine
Thought I had a girl who was all mine
Cook my dinner for me
All of the time

They've Got it All
03:23

Julie knows there’s more to life
Than being a mother and a lovely wife
But when she sees him playing on the floor
She knows she doesn’t want any more
She loves her baby cos he’s always there
Little dimples and soft brown hair
Hugs and kisses him all day long
She’s in a dream every day
Sammy knows when he grows tall
He’ll be a big man in a big man’s world
He’ll be a pilot in an aero plane
Or knock down buildings with a ball and chain
He loves his mummy cos she’s always there
Warm and lovely and soft brown hair
Hugs and kisses her all day long
He’s in a dream every day
Yeah they
They’ve got it all
They’ve got it all
Couldn’t want any more
Yeah they
They’ve got it all
They’ve got it all
Got it all that’s for sure
Now that Sammy’s grown big and tall
sixteen and so he knows it all
tells his parents what they should do
But they don’t listen to a word, its true
He loves his mother but she’s always there
Always bugging him about his hair
Always on at him the whole day through
He’s got to get far away
Oh they (Julie knows there’s more to life)
They’ve got it all (Than being a mother and a lovely wife)
They’ve got it all (she knows it)
Couldn’t want any more
Yeah they (Sammy knows when he grows tall)
They’ve got it all (He’ll be a big man in a big man’s world)
They’ve got it all (He knows it)
Got it all that’s for sure
