Pure Pleasure Seeker
yeah gotta get me some gotta get me
instant gratification
gimme new kicks won't you show me new tricks
without the ramifications
give it a try don't be shy well you know you might like it
never been to keen a timekeeper
but i'm a pure new pleasure seeker
all the way from venus invading from mars
don't let that come between us it's written in the stars
save me from fading afraid the tears of a fool on parade
quietly turn into stone make me flesh and bone
well come on oh you know that you want it now
well come on yeah you know that you want it and how
stimulation in body and cell for the good and misguided
desperation i'm under your spell
misunderstood and derided
speculation they kiss and they tell
misjudged and misquoted
fell into the abyss i must have wanted this
another myth exploded
take a weight off your mind trust the voice of experience
i will tell you little white lies viva indifference
stoke up the fire i'm all you require
they won't set you alight
come and live your desire
come make me whole body and soul…

Absent Minded Friends
it's a silly thing that i've been wondering
shall we drink a toast to absent minded friends
to all who turn the corner
and to those who went round the bend
everybody raise your glasses drink and drown
melancholy for the masses love comes down
well it's a silly thing that i've been wondering
maybe you will never bridge the gulf
baby you are just too sensitive are you numb enough?
can we ever feel this impending void?
have we become what we intended to avoid?
have you ever smiled for too long? till you're aching
have you ever laughed till you cried?
till your heart is breaking...
well it's a silly thing tat i've been wondering
love is always riddled with selfishness
few will find joy in their big success
from the sublime to the ridiculous in the blink of an eye
funny all too funny you're a funny guy
if it's too much to feel come this way my friend
try to keep it unreal feels good to let yourself descend
so pretend we can transcend our everyday existences
no distances how did we come undone?
become what we become?
have you ever smiled for too long? till you're aching
have you ever laughed till you cried?
till your heart is breaking
how did we come undone?
became what we've become

Being Is Bewildering
human being being human

transmit remote unseen unknown
she is glad to be so very happy
we've placed your call into a queuing system listen
to the pretty musak play let it numb your fragile system
she had a friend to call her own
but now she spends her time alone
what of the cost of growing up
put me on hold to shut me up

stay and play out the whole scene
try to stay calm how long do you
hold on do you dare to dream
just being is bewildering

Remain The Same
change my face but it won't erase
i changed my heart when my soul changed hands
what if when i find myself? made new plans
i don't really like myself? underhand what
if when i look inside? change my name
i don't like much what i find? but i remain the same
change my name i remain the same
try again another new beginning
change my course but i can't change my ways
d i v o r c e will you count the days
what if when i find myself? change my tune
i don't really like myself? but i stand on shifting stand
what if when i look inside when i change my name
my heart was changing hands
baby you'll never understand
change my name i remain the same 
try again another new beginning
if i if i could just slip from the net try to forget
i hang my hat in regret
if i if i could just but it's too much slip from my skin
i try again another new beginning
change my name...

A Drop In The Ocean
i fell like a drop in the ocean
just a ripple on expanding seas
if the shoe fits i swear it i will wear it
by this shinning stiletto i do decree
i'm half full and my glass is empty
say so long and wave goodbye
i've been searching for new ways to get lost
there's got to be someplace
somewhere i'll never be found
i can fend for myself could pretend for myself
i'll play the wild rover though my horse may be blind
i'm half full and my glass is empty
say so long and wave goodbye
all the binds that tie are there for a reason
you won't fond the prairies it's folly to try

Dumb Inc.
oh yeah… yeah oh yeah
dumb dumb so sweet so young
you're not supposed to swallow your bubble gum
chicken foot dim sum
knuckle head knuckle head look what you've done
dumb dumbing it down take a look around
you and me are free to be the dumbest in town
young gun excuse the pun
the pandemonium has just begun
dumb dumb we are dumbing it down
got a head full of cotton wool
but life for me is never dull
to fulfil you have to fill full
i turned around and bought around
and poured another one
proud fool you're just too cool for school
fool moon comes soon
and when the moon is not quite round
where can the missing bit be found
be proud to be profound
dumb dumb we are dumbing it down
devoid we are malcontent
we are not entirely sure of our intent
brain washed we suffer memory loss
ho hum play dumb come little boy lost
the time bomb is ticking quickening...
dumb dumb we are dumbing it down

The Time Is Now
you're my last breath you're a breath of fresh air to me
hi i'm empty tell me you care for me
you are the first thing and the last thing on my mind
in your arms i feel sunshine
on a promise a day dream yet to come
time is upon us oh but the night is young
flowers blossom in the wintertime
in your arms i feel sunshine
give up yourself unto the moment the time is now
give up yourself unto the moment
let's make this moment last
you may find yourself out on a limb for me
could you except it as a part of your destiny?
i give all i have but it's not enough
and my patience is shot so i'm calling your bluff
and we gave it time all eyes are on the clock
but time takes too much time
please make the waiting stop
and the atmosphere is charged in you i trust
and i feel no fear as i do as i must
tempted by fate but i won't hesitate
the time is now...and i can't wait
i've been empty too long
took a chance and now it's gone
and the time has come and the night is young
the time is now... let's make this moment last

Mother
mother dear you'll never be my sister
seek the advice of a solicitor
mother dear you'll never be my sister
show me empathy californian sensibilities
all my problems spring from my troubled upbringing
we need to go right back to the beginning
dispossessed from the outset
what you need is precisely what you get
mother dear it should be you
that's sitting here on this coach ouch
mother dear you'll never be my sister
seek the advice of a solicitor
mother dear you'll never be my sister
on my shoulder you're a chip on my you're a blister
so tell me what am i gonna do
they told me that maybe i could sue
and oh how the many were corrupted by the few
so i dance the mambo and the cha cha cha
i run you over in my beautiful car
dearest darling mother dearest
we can't bear to have you near us
the blame lies in the family name
it's not my fault i did as i was taught
escape to mongolia or timbuktu
i know somehow somewhere i'll be bumping into you
you see i'm blameless
i had a mother who was shameless
no wonder my life collapsed
see i'm aimless with all this analysis
i think i'm having a relapse
we love you we do we've taken advice and we may sue
you see i'm blameless i shall remain nameless
you can't run away from the past
i know what her game is
and i've forgotten what my name is i'm just too frightened to ask
tell me what did you expect
what you made is precisely what you get

It's Your Problem

It's Nothing
nothing can stop you nothing can break you now
this is'ness has put you out of business
bought and sold me i'm lonely i will admit i'm lonely
just keep on walking act like you don't know me
disown me go ahead disown me
it doesn't really matter at all nothing seems to matter
nothing can hurt you nothing can bring you down
nothing at all
nothing can break you nothing can take you now
nothing at all
let me down easy speak softly let me down gently
i realise and must be disorientating what was i saying
doesn't really matter any more nothing seems to matter
nothing at all
nothing can hurt you nothing can bring you down
nothing at all
nothing can take you nothing can break your heart

Bingo Massacre

Somebody Somewhere

something there's something inside

someone somewhere
someone somewhere you left behind
sweet child learn to relax it's already decided

i'm empty i'm hungry my spirit is free
ready me ready me ready me to receive
i believe i believe

Just You And Me Dancing

If You Have A Cross To Bear
You May As Well Use It As A Crutch
if you have a cross to bear
i think it's fair if you use it as a crutch
if you have a cross to bear
it's only fair if you use it as a crutch

Keep Stepping
