The Shame of It
04:04
|

|
I'm waving from the shop window with no shame
Tell me something I don't know and then say it again
I'm a sight for the sore eyes with no shame
You told a dirty little secret and then came
CHORUS
A false confidence is something I don't lack
I'm in slow motion
Afro hair and an aphrodisiac
What a potion!
Raise a glass to me cuz I've no shame
Have your eyes popped from sockets? What a shame
If you haven't tried and don't know it all the same
I'm a one in a million so I claim
Sit back and enjoy the exhibition. They came
CHORUS
Everybody's talked of the shame of it
Everybody chalked up a stain fr

Keeping It Together
04:51
|
|||
|
At the end of the day I am the author of my fall
The ghosts drift away
Its about time
CHORUS
Its about keeping it together
Its about fleshing out what you see
A promise that will go on forever
Trying to prove that the real me is me
Tripped on a wire
It was a humiliating stunt
I'm off to a flyer
Watch I'm flying
CHORUS
At the end of the day my multi-facets hide away
Well what can I say?
Its about time
CHORUS

Carried Away
04:48
|
|||
|
Its no time its no year
Well I'm flying when the coasts looking clearer
I feel fine give a cheer
Hell I'm crying don't judge a book by appearance
In the past in the light
It fades fast well thank God I'm a fighter
Called to task scared of heights
So I'll bask in the heart of the sunlight
CHORUS
When you say the slightest word I'll come running
I only need a single word not two
The dreams are good the prospects sure are stunning
I think I get carried away
Its no time its a fact
I'm no Einstein indeed I'm mentally cracking
I'm fine but lets chat
And I pine when my batteries are failing
CHORUS

|
In a shot (bam) I'd flee from this land
To a distant place where we can walk hand in hand
Give it time (tic) we'd certainly click
I hope I've not been beaten by the ugly stick
CHORUS
Its true
Heaven is a place with you
We two
If I stare into space at your beautiful face
Its just because it takes me ti a much better place
In a short while I'll control my smile
I hope that you don't see me and you run for a mile
CHORUS
In a shot (bam) I'd flee from this land
I'm feeling so giddy that I can only half stand
My heart beat when I dream how we meet
Its fair to say you've gone and swept me off of my feet
CHORUS

Passer-by
03:09
|
|||
|
I've been scarcely giving eye contact
They didn't say much at all
I'm somewhat surprised the green is packed
The snob in me is appalled
So blow the pipes the cob-webs left
Reminders we don't move
The sound waves leave my mind bereft
Its more a drone than groove
CHORUS
There's a tear formed in my eye
Memories returning
Just ignore the passer-by
I'm waving with a mild success
A sign language I learnt
The bridge is just a charcoaled mess
You can't burn what has been burnt
CHORUS

Around
02:56
|
|||
|
I'm perceived to have a good life
Misunderstood by everyone around
What a gallant war knight
Briefly standing firm as chaos it comes
Around around around around around
Somethings are to watch but not touch
Can I offer you a flesh strip for a pound?
Fancy wiggle of a sold crutch
"Hey I'm free and up for anything that's
Around around around around around"
What's that written on the table?
Says the same as the whispering sound
I'm paranoid and I'm unstable
And the voices in my head they go
Around around around around around

Hope
02:58
|
|||
|
I'm keeping it going with hope enough
I'm ticking off days and sleep is rough
A shot in the arm that gives a boost
I've got too cosy in my roost
CHORUS
I open my eyes and the world still seems the same
You can strip all away but the hope will still remain
These prison walls may not be physical
But they're strong enough to stop me seeing you
I'm closing my eyes, forming a wish
I'm searching the ocean for one fish
CHORUS
There's one step forward two steps back
And I've no white flag for this attack
CHORUS

Hot-Pants
03:38
|
|||
|
And you
You have a little quirk in your brow
You have a little smirk in your smile
That's you
And you
You have a little razzle dazzle
You have a way to silence the crowd
That's you
Everybody stares at your hot-pants baby
Everybody stares at your hotness maybe
Everybody stares
Everybody stares and I don't doubt it

Do not stare at my crown of thorns
I think I'm sheltering as the trouble spawns
I'm reborn
Bring forth the entertainer
I'm caked in custard I'm a first class clown
I've heard I can be fun to hang around with
I've found its debatable
Restrain me
CHORUS
Close your eyes the grass is greener
I'm positive and a keener
Bring forth the entertainer!
Listen closely you can make out a clap
I am an expert at the first class crap
Its a wrap!
The laugh is just the make up
See me juggle like I've juggled with life
I've braved it all and I survived the knife
Its rife
And its a case of put up or shut up
CHORUS
