It's such a shame you turned away You've had the best of everything And left us all to fry But we won't be left behind (What a shame) It's not a question of time (Time) We can't afford to dream (What a shame) about the peaches and cream. (Cream) We've seen the news And we're not amused to beg for food What can we do? Your doors are closed as tight as you. You've had your share of everything Your little hearts desire You won't be left behind (What a shame) It's not a question of time (Time) I can't afford to dream (What a shame) About the peaches and cream... (Cream) Open --? Send my brothers back to me This time not in crowded boats Give `em back their dignity "I have a dream" said Luther King Then he was gone What would he think? Have we his love to keep us warm? There's people fighting everywhere Religion, --? I won't be left behind (What a shame) It's not a question of time ... @SONG: Killing Time Don't take out your hate on me Or try to cleanse my family I'm just another refugee I won't look back now Smoke is rising from our house You've cut us off and chased us out There's nothing left to cry about I won't look back now How many lives will it take us to be sure To recognise it's killing time Don't make your mistakes on me Your threats, your lies, your perjury `Cos I wanna be what I wanna be I won't look back now Children trapped beneath the stars In skeletons of broken cars And noone even stops to ask I won't look back now How many lives will it take us to be sure To recognise it's killing time @SONG: Marlon Marlon! You're unacceptable James, James, James You can't do that anymore You don't look right, you don't look right You don't look right, you don't look young You don't look strong, you don't look right Kiss me quick, squeeze me slow If that's all you want me to do! Timebomb waits in your blood And all you wanted was love Barbara Your prediction's coming true Jane, Jane, Jane You're much too good to be true You can swap your leathers for a plastic mac And take your motorcycle to the bottle bank Vroom Vroom And all you wanted was love @SONG: And This We Call Crime Four o'clock and the doors are locked The boys come out as the clubs chuck out Another night to forget about You have to swing by your safety belt Got no reason to go to bed The jobs are gone and the town is dead Something nasty is in my head You have to swing by your safety belt Give me your keys Get down on your knees You think that we were coming And this we call crime I never felt like this before And this we call crime You shut us out and locked the door And this we call crime And we don't love you anymore Little children Four o'clock and the doors are locked The glass gets smashes in the corner shop Someone screams but the car won't stop You have to swing by your safety belt Give me your keys Get down on your knees You think that we can take it @SONG: Kamikaze Shirt This fire's alight We're here again From black and white Into colour Well there've been moments That i would gladly forget about And there've been moments But we've come through So why, when the pressure starts to hurt Do you go out and squeeze into your kamikaze shirt I've seen you cry A thousand times And felt the weight Of your sorrow I've tried to help you Shake off the worst of your loneliness I've tried to help you To let things be @SONG: Polythene We brought you new diseases We brought you birth control We brought you polythene To wrap around your children when they're cold We brought you new religions We tried to save your souls We brought you polythene To wrap around your children when they're gone Find yourself the highest mountain Find yourself a voice that's sure Who cares who came first or second It's time for you to stop the third world war We brought you grand solutions We've seen it all before We brought you polythene To wrap around your children when they're gone Find yourself the highest mountain (No one talks anymore) Find yourself a voice that's sure It's time for you to stop the third world war @SONG: Human Beings Sitting in the desert Keeping off the flies Swollen stomach, swollen head And sad and swollen eyes Waiting for the charity That slowly dribbles in This little boy's relying on The colour of your skin We did it for the jaguars The pandas and the seals And saved protected species With our desperate appeals We did it for the elephants And monkeys in a sack And just like you we lost a few They're never coming back Crouching in the diesel fumes Holding out their hands Open targets, open to a Million grains of sand Glaring in the camera Blinking in the lights Hoping for a miracle to set the world to rights We're cutting back on our aerosols Saving on our fuel And stomping out the bloodsports We've decided it's too cruel @SONG: Stripper In The Mirror Stripper in a public bar Waving a jar Hope she doesn't go too far Saving up for a car Hope you're gonna like the show Because if no one wants to know She'll have to do it all again There must be more to this life Than dreaming scheming and money There must be more to this life Mystical mother arabesque Vicar in a public bar Waving his jar Trying to forget the choir In a public bar He's wandered in to have his beer And seen the stripper in the mirror And now he's counting up to ten @SONG: Stars Do you know what life is? Do you know where love comes from? Can you tell the future? Can you see where you went wrong? Can you see the beauty? Can you see this ugly world? Will you have a baby? Little boy or little girl? Will you make a fortune? Will you lose your wife and kids? Do you really love him? Do you think he ever did? Because it's in the stars @SONG: Blue Anemone Of course i'm full of secrets Acres of pain How'm i gonna see you again I'm running down your windows And i'm staring at your face The face of the blue anemone First you must rest And then you must cry And oh Come on back to me I'll be the first in a long lonely line Of Oh Come on back to me's Say you're not hurt - Say You're just like you were - Say You're just like you were - Say You're my little girl Of course i'm full of secrets Acres of pain How'm i gonna face you again? I was so tied up in anger That i missed the warning signs Even when you were begging me I've learned a lesson But you paid the price So please Come on back to me I am the first in a long lonely line Of Oh Come on back to me's @SONG: Radio K.I.L.L. Billy took a shower Combed his hair back And took a long look at himself The wardrobe door was open All her dresses were gone Mickey's well known velvet voice Oozed out of his radio He picked up his car keys And screwed up her note Billy was held up by a red light Next to the court of appeal He thought for a moment Then banished the doubt from his mind Mickey had told her In front of his listeners "This man's not worth waiting for!" And now he would pay For his precious advice Radio Lover, radio love The wardrobe was open All her dresses were gone He might as well take out his gun Billy parked his car outside the station As it was closing down And summoning up his courage Read her crumpled words one more time Mickey's voice never purred again on Stereo radio And her words ran into blue puddles Where Mickey was lying Radio lover, Radio love
