Can anybody do the curse removal
Is anyone here feeling helpful?
It's twenty-four years since we've had this curse
So find it in your hearts to put to you

You should feel like it's all okay
But everyday, it still feels like a Thursday
You should feel like it's all okay
But everyday, it still feels like a Thursday

I know it's no concern
(No, it's, no, it's, no, it's, oh)
How we got this low
Trying to get rid of it is as hard as rock
Hard as rock, hard as rock

You should feel like it's all okay
But everyday, it still feels like a Thursday
You should feel like it's all okay
But everyday, it still feels like a Thursday


2.Meet Me Halfway

Ooooohooooh
I can't go any further than this
Ooooohooooh
I want you so badly, it's my biggest wish

I spent my time just thinkin, thinkin, thinkin bout you
Every single day yes, I'm really missin' missin' you
And all those things we use to, use to, use to, use to do
Hey girl, wuz up, it use to, use to be just me and you
I spent my time just thinkin, thinkin, thinkin bout you
Every single day, yes i'm really missin, missin you
And all those things we use to use to use to do
Hey girl wuz up, wuz up, wuz up, wuz up

Meet me halfway, right at the borderline
That's where I'm gonna wait, for you
I'll be lookin out, night and day
Took my heart to the limit, and this is where I'll stay
I can't go any further then this
I want you so bad it's my only wish

Girl,I travel round the world and even sail the seven seas
Across the universe I go to other galaxies
Just tell me where to go, just tell me where you wanna to meet
I navigate myself, myself to take me where you be
Cause girl I want, I, I, I want you right now
I travel uptown (town) I travel downtown
I wanna to have you around (round) like every single day
I love you alway..way

Can you meet me half way (I'll meet you halfway)
Right at the borderline
That's where I'm gonna wait, for you
I'll be lookin out, night and day
Took my heart to the limit, and this is where I'll stay
I can't go any further then this
I want you so bad it's my only wish
I can't go any further then this
I want you so bad it's my only wish

Let's walk the bridge, to the other side
Just you and I (just you and I)
I will fly, I'll fly the skies, for you and I (for you and I)
I will try, until I die, for you and i, for you and I, for for
you and I,
For for you and I, for for you and I, for you and I

Can you meet me half way
Can you meet me half way
Can you meet me half way
Can you meet me half way
Meet me half way, right at the borderline
That's where I'm gonna wait, for you
I'll be lookin out, night and day
Took my heart to the limit, and this is where I'll stay
I can't go any further than this
I want you so bad it's my only wish
I can't go any further then this
I want you so bad it's my only wish


3.Beeswing

I came to town and they called it the summer
I came to town and they called it the summer
I was nineteen when I came to town
and they called it the summer of love
they were burning babies, burning flags
there were hawks against the doves
I got a job in the steamie down on Cauldrum Street
fell in love with a laundry girl
who was working next to me

Oh she was a rare thing, fine as a bee's wing
so fine a breath of wind might blow her away
she was a lost child, oh she was a running wild
she said, 'As long as there's no price on love,
As long as there's no price on love
As long as there's no price on love, I'll stay
wouldn't want me any other way'

I came to town and they called it the summer
I came to town and they called it the summer
Brown hair zig-zag around her face
and a look of half surprise
like a fox caught in the headlights
there was animal in her eyes
she said, 'Young man, can't you see
I'm not the factory kind
if you don't take me out of here
I'll surely lose my mind'


We busked around the market towns
and picked fruit down in Kent
we could tinker lamps and pots
and knives wherever we went
and I said that we might settle down
get a few acres dug
fire burning in the hearth and babies on the rug
She said 'Oh man, you foolish man
it surely sounds like hell
you may be Lord of half the world
but you'll not own me as well'


We was camping down the Gower one time
and the work was pretty good
she thought we shouldn't wait for the drost
and I thought maybe we should
we was drinking more in those days
and tempers reached a pitch
like a fool I let her run
with the rambling itch
On the last I heard she's sleeping rough
back on the Derby beat
White Horse in her hip pocket
and a wolfhound at her feet
and they even say she married once
a man named Romany Brown
but even a gypsy caravan
was too much settling down
And they say her flower is faded now
hard weather and hard booze
but maybe that's the price
you pay for the chains you refuse

6.The No. 1 Song in Heaven

This is a Sparks cover

This is the number one song in heaven
Written, of course, by the mightiest hand
All of the angels are sheep in the fold of their master
They alwas follow the Master and his plan

This is the number one song in heaven
Why are you hearing it now, you ask
Maybe you're closer to here than you imagine
Maybe you're closer to here than you care to be

This is the number one song in heaven
Written, of course, by the mightiest hand
All of the angels are sheep in the fold of their master
They alwas follow the Master and his plan

This is the number one song in heaven
Why are you hearing it now, you ask
Maybe you're closer to here than you imagine
Maybe you're closer to here than you care to be


7.The Old Dun Cow

Tom Brown and I in the local pub,
Were playing dominos one night,
When all of a sudden in the postman rushed,
His face all chalky white.
'Hey what's up?', said Brown, 'Have you seen a ghost?
Have you seen your Aunty Mariah?'
'Well, me Aunt Mariah be blown', said he,
'The bloody pub's on fire!'

Oh, there was Brown upside down,
He was moppin' up the whisky on the floor.
'Booze, booze!' the firemen cried,
As they came knockin' at the door.
Don't let them 'in til it's all mopped up,
Somebody shouted MacIntyre! (MACINTYRE!)
And we all got blue-blind paralytic drunk,
When the Old Dun Cow caught fire.

'On fire!' says Brown, 'What a bit of luck.
Everybody follow me.
Down in the cellar,
Where the fire isn't there,
We will have a gay old spree.'
So we all went down with good old Brown,
The beer we could not miss,
And we hadn't been but ten minutes there,
'til we were bloody pissed.

Oh, there was Brown upside down,
He was moppin' up the whisky on the floor.
'Booze, booze!' the firemen cried,
As they came knockin' at the door.
Don't let them 'in til it's all mopped up,
Somebody shouted MacIntyre! (MACINTYRE!)
And we all got blue-blind paralytic drunk,
When the Old Dun Cow caught fire.

Oh Jones did rush, to the port wine tub,
And gave it just a few hard knocks,
Started takin' off his pantaloons,
Likewise his shoes and socks.
'Hey, what's up?, ' said Brown, 'If you want to wash your feet,
There's a tub of booze down here.
Don't wash your trousers in the port wine tub,
When we theres lots of Carling lager beer.'

Oh, there was Brown upside down,
He was moppin' up the whisky on the floor.
'Booze, booze!' the firemen cried,
As they came knockin' at the door.
Don't let them in 'til it's all mopped up,
Somebody shouted MacIntyre! (MACINTYRE!)
And we all got blue-blind paralytic drunk,
When the Old Dun Cow caught fire.

All of a sudden there's a bloody big bang,
And half the flamin' roof gave away.
And we were drowned in the firemen's hose,
But were all still going gay.
So we got some tacks and some old tin scraps,
And boarded ourselves inside,
And we kept on drinking good old Scotch,
'til we were bleary-eyed.

Oh, there was Brown upside down,
He was moppin' up the whisky on the floor.
'Booze, booze!' the firemen cried,
As they came knockin' at the door.
Don't let them 'in til it's all mopped up,
Somebody shouted MacIntyre! (MACINTYRE!)
And we all got blue-blind paralytic drunk,
When the Old Dun Cow caught fire.


8.Acapella

I was walking, was living
My melody was acapella
There's a beat I was missing
No tune, or a scale, I could play

The sound in the distance
No orchestra playing together
Like a boat out to sea,
The silence was too deafening

Come and revive me
I can't feel my heartbeat
Just me surviving alone

Before you,
My whole life was acapella
Now a symphony's
The only song to sing
Before you,
My whole life was acapella
Now a symphony's
The only song to sing

Everything was the same
One color was just like the others
An assembly routine
My memories were all black and white
Till I stopped over-thinking
Decided to draw back the curtains
And I cleared all the cobwebs
And began to let in the light

Come and revive me
I can't feel my heartbeat
Just me surviving alone

Before you,
My whole life was acapella
Now a symphony's
The only song to sing
Before you,
My whole life was acapella
Now a symphony's
The only song to sing
Now a symphony's
The only song to sing
Now a symphony's
The only song to sing
