1.IN THE NIGHT
Lyrics:Tennant/Lowe
Music:Tennant/Lowe
Zazou, what you're gonna do?
There's a lot of people coming for you
Zazou, comment allez-vous?
A knock on the door in the night
That Zazou, he don't care
Dark glasses, long hair
Takes his time, sneers at men
Some ugly people want revenge
Zazou, comment allez-vous?
A knock on the door in the night
In the night
That Zazou, he sleeps all day
Then down to Select or Le Collisee
Sips his drinks, orders more
Says what he thinks and it's a crazy war
Zazou, what you're gonna do?
A knock on the door in the night
Zazou, comment allez-vous?
A knock on the door in the night
And when the soldiers strut, all he cares about
Is love
When the flags are out, all he cares about
Is love
Well, there's a thin line between love and crime
And in this situation
A thin line between love and crime and -
Collaboration
In the night
(the night the night the night the night ...)
Zazou, what you're gonna do?
There's a lot of people coming for you
Zazou, comment allez-vous?
A knock on the door in the night
Now everybody's under somebody's spell
Unless they've already gone to hell
In the streets you can hear the people say
That, Zazou, he should be locked away!
When the soldiers strut, all he cares about
Is love
Oh, when the flags are out, all he cares about
Is love
And there's a thin line between love and crime
And in this situation
A thin line between love and crime and
Collaboration
2.A MAN COULD GET ARRESTED
Lyrics:Tennant/Lowe
Music:Tennant/Lowe
Do it (do it do it do it do it do it...)
Do it do it do it do it do it do it do it do it...
Do it now do it now do it now do it now do it now do it now do
it now
Do it (do it do it do it do it...)
Late on Tuesday evening, such a commotion in the street
Someone broke a window, and someone's head got beat
A wave of breaking bottles, crashed across the city street
And someone got arrested, for the breach of the peace
If you wanna walk (walk walk walk walk)
Don't talk (talk talk talk talk)
Do it! (do it do it do it do it do it do it do it)
If you wanna earn (earn earn earn earn)
Learn (learn learn learn)
how to do it! (do it do it do it do it do it do it do it)
And if you wanna ride (ride ride ride ride)
don't hide (don't hide)
Do it! (do it do it do it do it do it do it do it do it)
If you wanna stay (stay stay stay)
Don't say (say say say)
Prove it! (prove it prove it prove it prove it prove it prove
it)
How much longer are you gonna sit and talk to me?
You got so many problems and a split personality
You want to see a doctor before our love is tested
How much longer a man could get arrested?
If you wanna walk (walk walk walk walk)
Don't talk (talk talk talk talk)
Do it! (do it do it do it do it do it do it do it)
If you wanna earn (earn earn earn earn)
Learn (learn learn learn learn)
how to do it! (do it do it do it do it do it)
And if you wanna ride (ride ride ride ride)
don't hide (hide hide hide hide hide)
Do it! (do it do it do it do it do it do it)
And if you wanna stay (stay stay stay)
Don't say (say say say)
Prove it! (prove it prove it prove it prove it prove it prove
it)
You've got your health, you've got everything, that's what my
doctor said
You may not have much cash, but you've got a roof over your head
Of course I said I loved you, not just 'cause you insisted
How much longer a man could get arrested?
If you wanna walk (walk walk walk walk)
Don't talk (talk talk talk talk)
Do it! (do it do it do it do it do it do it do it)
If you wanna earn (earn earn earn earn)
Learn (learn learn learn learn)
how to do it! (do it do it do it do it do it do it)
If you wanna ride
don't hide
Do it! (do it do it do it do it do it do it)
If you wanna stay (stay stay stay stay stay)
Don't say (say say say say say say)
Do it! (do it do it)
Do it! (do it do it do it do it do it do it)
Why don't, why don't we do it now?
Do it now?
Why don't, why don't we do it now?
Why don't we do it now?
Why don't, why don't we do it now?
Why don't we do it now?
Why don't we do it now?
3.THAT'S MY IMPRESSION
Lyrics:Tennant/Lowe
Music:Tennant/Lowe
I went looking for someone I couldn't find
Staring at faces by the Serpentine
Walking slowly, I realised
You'd been and gone - I know you lied
That's my impression
That's my impression
That's my impression
That's my impression
The wind was chilly and the sky was dull
I went for shelter to the temple
Once inside I couldn't believe my eyes
You'd been and gone - I know you lied
That's my impression
That's my impression
That's my impression
That's my impression
Go to a club - you think I'll be there
I don't go 'cause I'm not a member
You said you went to apologise
It's plain to me that's one more lie
That's my impression
That's my impression
That's my impression (impression)
That's my impression
I went looking for someone I couldn't find
Staring at faces by the Serpentine
Walking slowly, I realised
You'd been and gone - I know you lied
That's my impression
That's my impression
That's my impression
That's my impression
It's an expression
And a suggestion
I learned my lesson
That's my impression
That's my impression (impression)
That's my impression
That's my impression (impression)
I learned my lesson
I went looking for someone I couldn't find
Staring at faces by the Serpentine
Walking slowly I - realised
You'd been and gone - I know
You lied - that's my impression
I know you lied
And that's my impression
That's my impression
My impression
That's my impression
4.WAS THAT WHAT IT WAS?
Lyrics:Tennant/Lowe
Music:Tennant/Lowe
Think again - remember what we said
Promises - how we both forget
Even now I see it in your eyes
When and why, and where was paradise?
Something's been and gone
When all is said and done; we were wrong
Was that what it was?
Was that what it was?
Think again - remember what you said
You'd never leave - if you did I wouldn't care
I never dared to ring you up and ask you why
Too proud to beg or hear you cry
Something's been and gone
When all is said and done; we were wrong
Was that what it was?
Was that what it was?
I don't need any more in my life
Did you need something more in your life?
Was that what it was?
Was - THAT - what it was?
Something's been and gone
When all is said and done; we were wrong
Was that what it was?
Was that what it was?

6.JACK THE LAD
Lyrics:Tennant/Lowe
Music:Tennant/Lowe
Ooooooh oooooh
Lawrence in the desert, how was he to know
Under so much pressure from the men back home?
Play with fire, you must be mad
Are you only Jack the Lad?
Play with guns, you must be bad
Or hiding something, Jack!
Telling lies in public, breaking codes at home
Underneath the blankets, for another role
Tell these lies, you must be mad
Are you only Jack the Lad?
To feast with panthers every night
You must be careful, Jack!
Don't let them try to restrain you
This is your only religion
Don't let them try to detain you
You're not the only fool
We all fall, even Jack the Lad
We all fall, even Jack the Lad
Will fall
Philby in the desert
looking for a phone
Waiting on the pavement
for a call from home
Play with fire, you must be mad
Are you only Jack the Lad?
Turn your back on friends you had
They must have hurt you, Jack!
Don't let them try to restrain you
This is your only religion
Don't let them try to detain you
You're not the only fool
We all fall, even Jack the Lad
We all fall, even Jack the Lad
Don't let them try to restrain you
This is your only religion
Don't let them try to detain you
You're not the only fool
We all fall, even Jack the Lad
We all fall, even Jack the Lad
Will fall...
7.YOU KNOW WHERE YOU WENT WRONG
Lyrics:Tennant/Lowe
Music:Tennant/Lowe
Two men on the street
Drinking something cheap
No home, no family
It's cold, nowhere to sleep
Passers-by never catch their eye
Anywhere, one man drinks, the other swears
You know where you went wrong
You know where you went wrong
(Aaaah) You know
You know where you went wrong
You know where you went wrong
(Aaaah) You know
The old man can't understand
No one will shake his hand
I gave security, bombs and colour TV
It cost a few lives
Someone's son always dies
No one shakes his hand
He don't understand
You know where you went wrong
You know where you went wrong
(Aaaah) You know
You know where you went wrong
You know where you went wrong
(Aaaah) You know
This is the history of the world
Of every boy and every girl
Who don't understand what's going on anymore
The history of the world
Of every boy and every girl
Who don't understand what's going on anymore
(What's going on?)
Two girls have a photograph
One looks, the other laughs
He could have been mine
Why did I change my mind?
Then hands on hips
The other girl says: Admit! Admit!
You know where you went wrong
You know where you went wrong
(Aaaah) You know
You know where you went wrong
You know where you went wrong
(Aaaah) You know
This is the history of the world (of the world)
Of every boy and every girl
Who don't (who don't) understand (understand)
what's going on anymore (what's going on?)
The history of the world (Ooooh)
Of every boy and every girl (Every boy and girl)
Who don't (who don't) understand (understand)
what's going on anymore (what's going on?)
You know where you went wrong
You know where you went wrong
(Aaaah) You know
You know where you went wrong
You know where you went wrong
(Aaaah) You know
(Aaaah)
You know where you went wrong
You know where you went wrong
(Aaaah) You know
(Aaaah)
(Aaaah)
You know where you went wrong
You know where you went wrong
(Aaaah) You know
You know where you went wrong
You know where you went wrong
(Aaaah) You know
You know where you went wrong
You know where you went wrong
You know
You know where you went wrong
You know where you went wrong
You know
You know where you went wrong
You know where you went wrong
You know
8.A NEW LIFE
Lyrics:Lowe/Springs/Tennant
Music:Lowe/Springs/Tennant
At night it hits me cold
There's so much more to life than I'll ever know
I look around and I realise
It's time to make a move, though you won't sympathise
Stars collect overhead
They look down on the channel and our lives grown dead
Cars pass on through the night
How do you get to heaven if you never try?
New life, new love
Where's the heart I was dreaming of?
I need a new hope, new dream
Another heart in a different scene
Make a firm decision, it's time to go
That's for you to find out and for me to know
No more hard times or petty crimes
Forget that life I have left behind
The night goes by
Leaving you behind me, as I fly
Then rise, the day and night sky
How do you get to heaven if you never try?
New life, new love
Where's the heart I was dreaming of?
I need a new hope, new dream
Another heart in a different scene
A new life, it's so hard to find
A new love, it's so hard to find
The night goes by
Leaving you behind me, as I fly
There lies the day in that sky
How do you get to heaven if you never try?
New life, new love
Where's the heart I was dreaming of?
I need a new hope, new dream
Another heart in a different scene
New life, new love
Where's the heart I was dreaming of?
I need a new hope, new dream
Another heart in a different scene
9.I WANT A DOG
Lyrics:Tennant/Lowe
Music:Tennant/Lowe
I want a dog,
A chihuahua
When I get back to my small flat
I want to hear somebody bark
Oh, you can get lonely
Don't want a cat,
Scratching its claws all over my
Habitat
Giving no love and getting fat
Oh, (oh oh) you can get lonely
And a cat's no help with that
(Bulldog, hound, pug, labrador,
Collie, retriever, Dobermann-pinscher,
Husky, dalmatian, St. Bernard and dachshund,
Mongrel, beagle, cocker spaniel)
I want a dog,
To walk in the park
When it gets dark, my dog will bark
At any passers-by
Oh, (oh oh) you can get lonely
I want a dog
I want a dog,
A chihuahua
When I get back to my small flat
I want to hear somebody bark
Oh, (oh oh) you can get lonely
10.DO I HAVE TO?
Lyrics:Tennant/Lowe
Music:Tennant/Lowe
I don't care what you've said, and I mean it
I don't care what you've shared, 'cause I've seen it
Who's to judge if you're wrong? This is a bad time
Just as long as you break his heart and not mine
Tell him you're a liar, tell him I'm a saint
Say it's much too early, or just too late
Tell him that you're weak, beg him to be strong
Say you're very sorry but you were wrong
Do I have to? Don't say!
Do I need to love you?
Do I have to? Don't say!
Do I need to love you?
It's a fatal mistake, and you know it
That you're dying to make; you'll pay for it
It's already too late, go on, admit it
Tell him it's a problem, tell him it's too hard
Say you've phoned your best friend and Scotland Yard
Swear that there'll be murder, tell him that I'm ill
Say you know it's blackmail, but that don't kill
Do I have to? Don't say!
Do I need to love you?
Do I have to? Don't say
That I need to love you?
Do I have to? Oh, don't say!
Do I need to love you?
Do I have to? Don't say
Do I need to love you?
I know what you assume about me
I hurt, but do I have to bleed?
Do I have to? Don't say!
Do I need to love you?
Do I have to? Don't say!
Do I need to love you?
Do I have to? Don't say!
Do I need to love you?
Do I have to? Don't say
That I need to love you?
Do I have to?
Do I have to?
Don't say
Do I have to?
Love you?
11.I GET EXCITED (You Get Excited Too)
Lyrics:Tennant/Lowe
Music:Tennant/Lowe
(Excited)
(Excited)
(Excited Excited Excited Excited)
(Excited Excited Excited Excited)
(I get excited)
(I get excited)
We're both in the gutter, that's no surprise
What does it matter, when I look in your eyes?
We've lost all our money, we're thrown out of bars
We're lying in the gutter, but we're looking at the stars
I get excited, you get excited too (Excited) (I get excited)
I get excited, you get excited too (Excited) (I get excited)
I hear the sound of the subway, the sigh of the heat
The click of the visitors' heels on the street
The rattle of the taxi, the scream of the cars
The clatter of the dustbin and the beat of my heart
I get excited, you get excited too (Excited) (I get excited)
I get excited, you get excited too (Excited) (I get excited)
I don't know why, I don't know why (I get excited)
I don't know why, I don't know why
(Excited Excited Excited Excited)
(Excited Excited Excited Excited)
You're in my soul
My body moves to your control
Baby, I've been thinking about you
All night long, and the neighbours are talking
I don't know why, I don't know why (Excited) (I get excited)
I don't know why, I don't know why
(Excited) (I get excited)
We're both in the gutter, that's no surprise
What does it matter, when I look in your eyes?
We've lost all our money, we're thrown out of bars
We're lying in the gutter, but we're looking at the stars
I get excited, you get excited too (Excited) (I get excited)
I get excited, you get excited too (Excited) (I get excited)
I don't know why, I don't know why (I get excited)
I don't know why, I don't know why
(Excited Excited Excited Excited)
(Excited Excited Excited Excited)
(Ooooooooh)
I get excited, you get excited too (Excited) (I get excited)
I get excited, you get excited too (Excited) (I get excited)
I don't know why, I don't know why (I get excited)
I don't know why, I don't know why (I get excited)
I get excited, you get excited too
12.DON JUAN
Lyrics:Tennnt/Lowe
Music:Tennnt/Lowe
The man who's escorting Don Juan to his bride
Knows he is courting an impudent pride
Think of his jealousy, oh, where will he hide?
The man who's escorting Don Juan to his bride
The man who will cover for Don Juan's old soothsayer
Films for a Warner brother or Mister Goldwyn-Mayer
Think of his starlet, how much will he pay her?
The man who will cover for Don Juan's old soothsayer
An impasse has been reached with the teacher of the rich
To quit would be discreet and swift
But you know that I can't do that
It would be a disaster
It would be a disaster
I've got this sinking feeling, I'm not dreaming
We'll be sorry soon
(Hahahahaha)
At the end of the day, when everyone's resigned
To the heart of the matter and the measures in mind
King Zog's back from holiday, Mary Lupescu's grey
And King Alexander is dead in Marseilles
An impasse has been reached with the teacher of the rich,
To quit would be discrete and swift
But you know that I can't do that
It would be a disaster
It would be a disaster
I've got this sinking feeling, I'm not dreaming
We'll be sorry soon.
(Hahahahaha)
13.THE SOUND OF THE ATOM SPLITTING (12'Mix)
Lyrics:Lowe/Tennant/Lipson/Horn
Music:Lowe/Tennant/Lipson/Horn
I hate you
I hate you
Nothing will ever be the same
Oh really
Don't be silly
I told you it was all a game
Whenever I see you or your work
It makes me feel like spitting
What's that noise?
Oh that
We've been expecting it for ages
It's the sound of the atom splitting
He's a villain,
Him over there
With a stocking on his head
Look, there's another one
They call themselves pinheads
What's that noise over there?
Is it the corrogated iron they're hitting?
No, no, it's perfectly normal
It's just the sound of the atom splitting
Whose side are you on anyway?
Is that some kind of threat?
Well, I suppose it will have to do
As long as you don't make too much mess
And would the last person to leave
*Once you all finish kissing*
Turn the video on to record
You never know what you're missing
Bread and circuses
And maybe later
The sound of the atom splitting
Quiet at the back, please!
No whistling
It's the sound
The sound
The sound of the atom splitting
I hate you
I hate you
Quiet at the back, please!
No whistling
It's the sound
The sound
The sound of the atom splitting
It's the sound
The sound
The sound of the atom splitting
Oh really
Don't be silly
I told you it was all a game
It's the sound
What's that noise?
Quiet at the back, please!
14.ONE OF THE CROWD
Lyrics:Lowe/Tennant
Music:Lowe/Tennant
When I go fishing with my rod
I often get that urge
To fall asleep a sleep so deep that
No-one notices me
Don't want anyone to know my name
Don't want to get a fax
Don't want to meet the Royal Family
Just 'cause I've paid my tax
Don't wanna be seen or heard
Don't want to shout out loud
I want to be part of the herd
One of the crowd
Dressing individually doesn't impress me
I think that it's pathetic
Following fashion, I just like it
Don't I?
Don't wanna be seen or heard
Don't want to shout out loud
I want to be part of the herd
One of the crowd
(One of the crowd)
(One of the crowd)
Fishing
Fishing
I never fight, but every night
I think it's gonna be alright
I think I might think in spite of
Every - thing
Don't wanna be seen or heard
Don't want to shout out loud
I want to be part of the herd
One of the crowd
One of the crowd
One of the crowd
One of the crowd
One of the crowd
One of the crowd
(One of the crowd)
Fishing
(One of the crowd)
Fishing
15.YOUR FUNNY UNCLE
Lyrics:Tennant/Lowe
Music:Tennant/Lowe
A windy day
The cars in slow formation
Not far away
A final destination
One mother's son
His father's distant gaze, regretting
Where they went wrong
He always found it too upsetting
Me and my friend
We lived our lives completely
From start to end
You and your friend, so sweetly
With strength and pride
In spite of everything, and swimming
Against the tide
To obstinately hope of winning
And at the end
Your funny uncle staring
At all your friends
With military bearing
And stopped to stand
To smile and speak of you directly
Goodbye, shake hands
Like you did everything correctly
To wipe away the tears
No more pain, no fear
No sorrow or dying
No waiting or crying
These former things have passed away
Another life begins today
16.IT MUST BE OBVIOUS
Lyrics:Tennant/Lowe
Music:Tennant/Lowe
Are you feeling alright?
It's easy, we've been there before
But it feels like the flight
Of the von Trapps, does that mean it's war?
Oh no,
From my head to my toes
I'm in love with you
Do you think it shows?
We're meant to be friends
That's what it says in the script
Is it really the end
If, sometimes, I stray just a bit?
Oh no,
It should be poetry, not prose
I'm in love with you
Do you think it shows?
And everyone knows when they look at us
'Course they do, it must be obvious
I never told you, now I suppose
That you're the only one who doesn't know
You were different when
We met in an ordinary way
I didn't intend
To interrupt your own shadowplay
Oh no,
I won't upset the status quo
I'm in love with you
Do you think it shows?
And everyone knows when they look at us
'Course they do, it must be obvious
You've never asked me, and I'm surprised
That you're the only one who hasn't tried
Everyone knows when they look at us
'Course they do, it must be obvious
I never asked you, now I suppose
That you're the only one who doesn't know
Aah
When they look at us
It must be obvious
Oooh
17.WE ALL FEEL BETTER IN THE DARK
Lyrics:Tennant/Lowe
Music:Tennant/Lowe
(The secrets of sexual attraction)
(Get down get down get down get down
get down get down get down get down)
The music's pumping through me, I rush into the crowd
The sweat is pouring off me, the beat is dead loud
I want someone to love me, and I know I want it now
These feelings that I'm feeling must be satisfied somehow
I want it, I want it, you know I really want it!
I want it, I want it, you know I really want it!
I want it, I want it, you know I really want it!
We all feel better in the dark
We all feel better in the dark
(Get down get down get down get down
get down get down get down get down - Oooh)
My body surges with energy, shivers down my spine
I look deep into your eyes, and I know that you'll be mine
(Pump that bass Pu-Pump that bass
Pump that bass Pu-Pump that bass

We all feel better in the dark (Oooh)

18.BET SHE'S NOT YOUR GIRLFRIEND
Lyrics:Tennant/Lowe
Music:Tennant/Lowe
(Whisper whisper whisper whisper)
Whisper 'round the town,
'cause you're my friend and that's the end
For you're the only one in town
Who they will beg to hang around with
You're so beautiful and calm
But with an attitude that says:
'Hands-off, you're just not good enough'
Every boy and man feeling lonely
Can't understand why you'd be with me
Furthermore, we laugh and we draw
More attention everyday, so they say:
(Girlfriend) Bet she's not your girlfriend, oh no,
(Oh oh oh Girlfriend) You better make her happy
(Oh oh oh Girlfriend) Bet she's not your girlfriend, oh no,
(Oh oh oh Girlfriend) You better make her happy
Well, that says maybe, in a way, but it's okay
We are touche', while they stare in front of us
They draw away, as if to say:
'Who are these people anyway?
How dare they confront us?'
Every boy and man feeling lonely
Can't understand why you'd be with me
Furthermore, we laugh and we draw
More attention everyday, so they say:
(Girlfriend) Bet she's not your girlfriend, oh no,
(Oh oh oh Girlfriend) You better make her happy
(Oh oh oh Girlfriend) Bet she's not your girlfriend, oh no,
(Oh oh oh Girlfriend) You better make her happy
Oh no no no
Oh no no no
(Girlfriend Oh oh oh Girlfriend
Oh oh oh Girlfriend Oh oh oh Girlfriend)
I'd rather die, than satisfy their curiousity
I'm kind of shy and dry, and verging on ugly
They wonder what that I have got, that they have not
They'll never understand that none of that matters
Every boy and man feeling lonely
Can't understand why you'd be with me
Furthermore, we laugh and we draw
More attention everyday, so they say:
(Girlfriend) Bet she's not your girlfriend, oh no,
(Oh oh oh Girlfriend) You better make her happy
(Oh oh oh Girlfriend) Bet she's not your girlfriend, oh no,
(Oh oh oh Girlfriend) You better make her happy
(Oh oh oh Girlfriend Oh oh oh Girlfriend
Oh oh oh Girlfriend)
Bet she's not your, bet she's not your,
Bet she's not your,bet she's not your,
(Oh oh oh Girlfriend)
Bet she's not your girlfriend, oh no
(Oh oh oh Girlfriend) Bet she's not your girlfriend
(Oh oh oh Girlfriend) You better make her happy
(Oh oh oh Girlfriend) Bet she's not your girlfriend
(Oh oh oh Girlfriend) You better make her happy
Bet she's not your girlfriend
19.LOSING MY MIND
Lyrics:Sondheim
Music:Sondheim
The sun comes up - I think about you
The coffee cup - I think about you
I want you so, it's like I'm losing my mind
The morning ends - I think about you
I talk to friends and think about you
And do they know it's like I'm losing my mind?
All afternoon doing every little chore
The thought of you stays bright
Sometimes I stand in the middle of the floor
Not going left - not going right
I dim the lights and think about you
Spend sleepless nights to think about you
You said you loved me, or were you just being kind?
Or am I losing
My mind?
All afternoon doing every little chore
The thought of you stays bright
Sometimes I stand in the middle of the floor
Not going left - not going right
I dim the lights and think about you
Spend sleepless nights to think about you
You said you loved me, or were you just being kind?
Or am I losing my mind?
Or am I losing
Losing my mind?
You said you loved me, or were you just being kind?
Or am I losing my mind?
Were you just being kind?
Or am I losing my mind?
Losing my mind?
Losing my mind?

21.MISERABLISM
Lyrics:Tennant/Lowe
Music:Tennant/Lowe
It seems to me there's something serious beginning
A new approach found to the meaning of life
Deny that happiness is open as an option
And disappointment disappears over night
Say that love is an impossible dream
Face the facts, that's what it's always been
Relax, what you see is what you've seen
What you get, is a new philosophy
(That's what you got, that's what you get)
(That's what you got, that's what you get)
Miserablism, is is and isn't isn't
Miserablism, is is and isn't isn't
Meanwhile your life is still directed as a drama
With realism on the sparsest of sets
Every performance tends to reach the same conclusion
No happy endings but a message to depress
Saying life is an impossible scheme
That's the point of this philosophy
Miserablism, is is and isn't isn't
Miserablism, is is and isn't isn't
But if is wasn't, and isn't were
You can't be sure, but you might find ecstasy
(Oh no)
Just for the sake of it, make sure you're always frowning
(get get get)
It shows the world that you've got substance and depth
You know, life is an impossible scheme
And love an imperceptible dream
(That's what you got, that's what you get)
(That's what you got, that's what you get)
Miserablism, is is and isn't isn't
Miserablism, is is and isn't isn't
Miserablism, is is and isn't isn't
Miserablism, is is and isn't isn't
Miserablism, is is and isn't isn't
Miserablism, is is and isn't isn't
Miserable
22.HEY, HEADMASTER
Lyrics:Tennant/Lowe
Music:Tennant/Lowe
Hey, Headmaster, what's the matter with you?
Why're you always so serious, why so blue?
All the kids in the school have seen you
Being patient with the boys who fool you
When you used to hit them with your ruler
So independent too
Hey, Headmaster, what's the matter with you?
There's a crisis rumoured in the school
The boys have cut their hair short to look cool
Examination time is drawing near
Disintegration of the football team
No one seems to want to play for real
In classroom, club or pool
Hey, Headmaster, what're you gonna do?
There's an invitation in the post
To a reading party on the coast
Pack your bags up, you old bibliophile
Get together with your friends, who will
Give you time to think and time to kill
With independent hosts
Hey, Headmaster, aren't you gonna go?
Hey, Headmaster, aren't you gonna go?
23.WHAT KEEPS MANKIND ALIVE?
Lyrics:Brecht/Weill
Music:Brecht/Weill
You gentlemen who think you have a mission
To purge us of the seven deadly sins
Should first sort out the basic food position
Then start your preaching, that's where it begins
You lot, who preach restraint and watch your waist as well
Should learn for all time how the world is run
However much you twist, whatever lies you tell
Food is the first thing, morals follow on
So first make sure that those, who now are starving
Get proper helpings, when we all start carving
What keeps mankind alive, the fact that millions
Are daily tortured, stifled, punished, silenced, oppressed
Mankind can keep alive, thanks to its brilliance
At keeping its humanity repressed
For once, you must not try to shirk the facts:
Mankind is kept alive by bestial acts.
You say the girls may strip with your permission (whoa!)
You draw the line dividing art from sin
So first sort out the basic food position
Then start your preaching, that's where it begins
You lot, who bank on your desires and our disgust
Should learn for all time how the world is run
Whatever lies you tell, however much you twist
Food is the first thing, morals follow on
So first make sure that those, who now are starving
Get proper helpings, when we all start carving
What keeps mankind alive, the fact that millions
Are daily tortured, stifled, punished, silenced, oppressed
Mankind can keep alive, thanks to its brilliance
At keeping its humanity repressed
For once, you must not try to shirk the facts
Mankind is kept alive by bestial acts
Mankind can keep alive, thanks to its brilliance
At keeping its humanity repressed
For once, you must not try to shirk the facts:
Mankind is kept alive by bestial acts
24.SHAMELESS
Lyrics:Tennant/Lowe
Music:Tennant/Lowe
(Ooh ah ah ooh ah ah ooh ah ooh)
(Ooh ah ah ooh ah ah ooh ah ooh)
I know what you think
It's clear as mud in your eyes
We're the plastic poseurs and prostitutes
You've obviously come to despise
But you don't know nothing
You're not hot enough to matter
You don't understand it's the glamorous life
A dream that no one can shatter
We're shameless
We will do anything
To get our fifteen minutes of fame
We have no integrity
We're ready to crawl
To obtain celebrity
We'll do anything at all
I'm ambitious
Believe me, I'm going to be big
I'm a slave to glamour
Applause and clamour
My makeup, my wardrobe, my wigs
Don't call me pathetic
I'm harder than you'll ever guess
Relentlessly tough, for when the going gets rough
The tough get their picture in the press
We're shameless
We will do anything
To get our fifteen minutes of fame
We have no integrity
We're ready to crawl
To obtain celebrity
We'll do anything at all
(Anything, anything, anything at all)
(We'll do anything, anything, anything at all)
(We'll do anything, anything, anything at all)
(We'll do anything, anything, anything at all)
Tell me you love me
Admit it, you're really impressed
Would it not amuse you
For me to seduce you
Have you ever seen me undressed?
We're shameless
We will do anything
To get our fifteen minutes of fame (Give me fifteen minutes)
We have no integrity
We're ready to crawl
To obtain celebrity
We'll do anything at all
We're shameless
We will do anything
To get our fifteen minutes of fame (Give me fifteen minutes)
We have no integrity
We're ready to crawl to obtain celebrity
We'll do anything
With anyone
Go absolutely anywhere
For anything
At all
(Ooh ah ah ooh ah ah ooh ah ooh)
(Ooh ah ah ooh ah ah ooh ah ooh)
(Ooh ah ah ooh ah ah ooh ah ooh)
(Ooh ah ah ooh ah ah ooh ah ooh)
(Ooh ah ah ooh ah ah ooh ah ooh)
(Ooh ah ah ooh ah ah ooh ah ooh)
(Ooh ah ah ooh ah ah ooh ah ooh)
25.TOO MANY PEOPLE
Lyrics:Tennant/Lowe
Music:Tennant/Lowe
I sometimes think that I'm too many people
Too many people, too many people
I sometimes think that I'm too many people
Too many people, too many people at once
The husband or the hedonist
The businessman or the communist
The artist or the showbiz creep
The lover or the nervous geek
The question of identity is one that's always haunted me
Whoever I decide to be depends on who is with me
I sometimes think that I'm too many people
Too many people, too many people
I sometimes think that I'm too many people
Too many people, too many people at once
The tactless twit putting his foot in it
Or the sensitive soul who's a role model
The urban jet setter - never at home
Or the country recluse - just leave me alone
Extrovert or introvert
Love is kind, and love hurts
Rebellion or conformity
What is my identity?
I sometimes think that I'm too many people
Too many people, too many people
I sometimes think that I'm too many people
Too many people, too many people at once
The intellectual and bon-viveur
or the naive simpleton, so immature
A devoted son and family man
Or the wicked uncle who doesn't give a damn
How often these have tempted me
The question of identity depends on what I'm meant to be
I sometimes think that I'm too many people
Too many people, too many people
I sometimes think that I'm too many people
Too many people, too many people at once
I sometimes think that I'm too many people
Too many people, too many people
I sometimes think that I'm too many people
Too many people, too many people at once
26.VIOLENCE (Hacienda Version)
Lyrics:Tennant/Lowe
Music:Tennant/Lowe
The sons and brothers, fighting for another cause
Anything to give their lives some meaning
Busy with their guns and dreaming
Far away from here
Said they would act (said they would act)
In self-defense
And all the others, running 'round so hot and bothered
Anything to give their lives some meaning
In the evening
Running around with guns and
Said they would act (said they would act)
in self-defense
With violence
Violence breeds
Violence
(Ooh yeah, ooh yeah)
Violence breeds
Violence
(Ooh yeah, violence breeds violence)
(Ooh yeah, breeds yeah, breeds yeah)
(Ooh yeah, ooh yeah)
The son and brother, when he gets home
He gives someone some love
And mutters: 'Woman, (mutters woman)
You'll never understand (never understand)
I did what I said (did what I said)
In self-defense
With violence'
Violence breeds
Violence
(Ooh yeah, ooh yeah)
Violence breeds
Violence
(Ooh yeah, ooh yeah)
(Ooh yeah, violence)
(Ooh yeah, violence breeds violence)
27.DECADENCE
Lyrics:Tennant/Lowe
Music:Tennant/Lowe
You don't care about nothing
So you don't care about love
If you want me to come back
You'd better change
You'd better give up talking about money
Begin thinking of love
If you want me to come back
You'd better change
You'd better change for the better
It cost more than dollars and cents
Take it from me there's - got to be
An end to this decadence
This decadence
You don't care about people
So you don't care about pain
If you want me to come back
You'd better change
You'd better change for the better
Start using some common sense
Take it from me there's - got to be
An end to this decadence
For decadence - is fatal
It's the beginning of the end
In self-defense
I cannot recommend
This decadence
You don't care about real life
You're too distant and strange
If you want me to come back
You'd better change for the better
It may be rather intense
Stop this caprice, you've got to cease
This fin-de-siecle pretence
For decadence - is fatal
It's the beginning of the end
In consequence
I cannot recommend
This decadence
This decadence
This decadence
This decadence
28.IF LOVE WERE ALL
Lyrics:Coward
Music:Coward
I believe in doing what I can
In crying when I must
In laughing when I choose
Hey ho if love were all
I should be lonely
I believe the more you love a man
The more you give your trust
The more you're bound to lose
Although when shadows fall
I think if only
Somebody splendid really needed me
Someone affectionate and dear
Chaos would be ended if I knew that he
Wanted to have me near
But I believe that since my life began
The most I've had is just a talent to amuse
Hey ho if love were all
Hey ho if love were all

30.SOME SPECULATION
Lyrics:Tennant/Lowe
Music:Tennant/Lowe
There's been some speculation about a recent invitation
There's been some speculation about a recent invitation
What's your game?
What's his name?
Is it your inclination to accept this invitation?
Is it your inclination to accept this invitation?
What's your game?
Going away with someone new
Yesterday I went there too
Going away with someone new
Yesterday I went there too
There's been some speculation about a recent invitation
There's been some speculation about a recent invitation
What's your game?
What's his name?
Is it your inclination to accept this invitation?
Is it your inclination to accept this invitation?
What's your game?
Going away with someone new
Yesterday I went there too
Going away with someone new
Yesterday I went there too
