So true
Funny how it seems
Always in time, but never in line for dreams
Head over heels when toe to toe
This is the sound of my soul
This is the sound
I bought a ticket to the world
But now I’ve come back again
Why do I find it hard to write the next line?
I want the truth to be said
I know this much is true
I know this much is true
With a thrill in my head and a pill on my tongue
Dissolve the nerves that have just begun
Listenin’ to Marvin all night long
This is the sound of my soul
This is the sound
Always slippin’ from my hands
Sends a time of its own
Take your seaside arms and write the next line
I want the truth to be known
I know this much is true
Ooh, I know this much is true
I know this much is true
I bought a ticket to the world
But now I’ve come back again
Why do I find it hard to write the next line?
I want the truth to be…
I want the truth to be said
I know this much is true
Ooh, I know this much is true
I know this much is true
Whoa, this much is true!
This much is true, ooh
This much is true, ooh-ooh
This much is true, ooh
This much is true, ooh-ooh
With a thrill in my head and a pill on my tongue
Dissolve the nerves that have just begun
Listening to Marvin all night long
This much is true, ooh
This much is true, ooh-ooh
This is the sound
This much is true, ooh
This much is true, ooh-ooh
I bought a ticket to the world
This much is true, ooh
This much is true, ooh-ooh
I bought a ticket to the world
This much is true, ooh (ooh)
This much is true, ooh-ooh
Stand on the box
Stomp your feet
Start clappin’
I got a real good feelin’ somethin’ bad is ’bout to happen
Pulled up to the church
But I got signed up, had to bag it all up
Couldn’t make it to the service
Grabbed all the cash underneath my mattress
I got a real good feelin’ somethin’ bad is ’bout to happen
Ran into a girl in a pretty white dress
Rolled down the window, where you headin’ miss
Say I’m headin’ to the bar, with my money out the mattress
I got a real good feelin’ somethin’ bad is ’bout to happen
Stand on the box
Stomp your feet
Start clappin’
I got a real good feelin’ somethin’ bad is ’bout to happen
Drinks keep comin’, throw my head back laughin’
Wake up in the mornin’, don’t know what happened
Oh, somethin’ bad
Oh, somethin’ bad
Now me and that girl that I met on the street
We rollin’ than the go down to the New Orleans
Got full tank gas and the money out the mattress
I got a real good feelin’ somethin’ bad is ’bout to happen
‘Bout to tear it up down in New Orleans
‘Cause I locked it real locked
Now I am the wiz
If the cops catch up, they’re gonna call the kid nappin’
I got a real good feelin’ somethin’ bad is ’bout to happen
Stand on the box
Stomp your feet
Start clappin’
I got a real good feelin’ somethin’ bad is ’bout to happen
Drinks keep comin’, throw my head back laughin’
Wake up in the mornin’, don’t know what happened
Oh, somethin’ bad
Oh, somethin’ bad
Stand on the box
Stomp your feet
Start clappin’
I got a real good feelin’ somethin’ bad is ’bout to happen
Drinks keep comin’, throw my head back laughin’
Wake up in the mornin’, don’t know what happened
Oh, somethin’ bad
Oh, somethin’ bad
Ave Maria
Gratia plena
Maria, gratia plena
Maria, gratia plena
Ave, ave dominus
Dominus tecum
Bendicta tu in mulieribus
Et benedictus
Et benedictus fructus ventris
Ventris tui, Iesus
Ave Maria
Ave Maria
Maiden mild
I listen to a maidens prayer
For thou canst hear amid the wild
‘Tis thou, ’tis thou canst save me amid despair
We slumber safely ’til the morrow
Though e’en by men outcast reviled
Oh, maiden
See a maiden sorrow
Oh, mother hear a suppliant child
Ave Maria
There may be trouble ahead
But while there’s moonlight
And music and love and romance
Let’s face the music and dance
Before the fiddlers have fled
Before they ask us to pay the bill
And while we still have the chance
Let’s face the music and dance
Soon, we’ll be without the moon
Humming a different tune and then
There may be tear drops to shed
So while there’s moonlight
And music and love and romance
Let’s face the music and dance
Let’s face the music and dance
Soon, we’ll be without the moon
Humming a different tune and then
There may be tear drops to shed
So while there’s moonlight
And music and love and romance
Let’s face the music and dance
Let’s face the music and dance
Birds flying high
You know how I feel
Sun in the sky
You know how I feel
Breeze driftin’ on by
You know how I feel
It’s a new dawn
It’s a new day
It’s a new life
For me
And I’m feeling good
I’m feeling good
Fish in the sea
You know how I feel
River running free
You know how I feel
Blossom on a tree
You know how I feel
It’s a new dawn
It’s a new day
It’s a new life
For me
And I’m feeling good
Dragonfly out in the sun, you know what I mean, don’t you know
Butterflies all havin’ fun, you know what I mean
Sleep in peace when day is done, that’s what I mean
And this old world is a new world
And a bold world
For me
For me
Stars when you shine
You know how I feel
Scent of the pine
You know how I feel
Oh, freedom is mine
And I know how I feel
It’s a new dawn
It’s a new day
It’s a new life
It’s a new dawn
It’s a new day
It’s a new life
It’s a new dawn
It’s a new day
It’s a new life
It’s a new life
For me
And I’m feeling good
I’m feeling good
I feel so good
I feel so good
Is this the golden man that I run through
If I could give my thoughts across to you
A million dollars for your sorrow now you’re paying for it
Think twice, being evil has a price
I hear a lot of little secrets
Tell me yours and I’ll keep it
You wanna know my name by now
Better think twice, ’cause being evil has a price
I start to wonder is this real life
Throw out a candle, turn out the light
The cause of morals make you feel like you’re better than it
Think twice, being evil has a price
I hear a lot of little secrets
Tell me yours and I’ll keep it
You wanna know my name by now
Better think twice, ’cause being evil has a price
I got a nasty reputation, nor I feel the hesitation
Better think twice
‘Cause being evil has a price
Being evil has a price
I hear a lot of little secrets
Tell me yours and I’ll keep it
You wanna know my name by now
Better think twice, being evil has a price
I got a nasty reputation, nor I feel the hesitation
You better think twice
‘Cause being evil has a price
‘Cause being evil has a price
Watching the people get lairy
It’s not very pretty I tell thee
Walking through town is quite scary
It’s not very sensible either
A friend of a friend he got beaten
He looked the wrong way at a policeman
Would never have happened to Smeaton
An Old Leodensian
La… la, la, la, la, la
Ah… la, la, la, la, la
I predict a riot
I predict a riot
I predict a riot
I predict a riot
I tried to get to my taxi
The man in a tracksuit attacks me
He said that he saw it before me
And wants to get things a bit gory
Girls scrabble ’round with no clothes on
To borrow a pound for a condom
If it wasn’t for chip fat they’d be frozen
They’re not very sensible
La… la, la, la, la, la
Ah… la, la, la, la, la
I predict a riot
I predict a riot
I predict a riot
I predict a riot
And if there’s anybody left in here
That doesn’t want to be out there, oh
Watching the people get lairy
It’s not very pretty I tell thee
Walking through town is quite scary
Not very sensible
La… la, la, la, la, la
Ah… la, la, la, la, la
I predict a riot
I predict a riot
I predict a riot
I predict a riot
And if there’s anybody left in here
That doesn’t want to be out there
I predict a riot
I predict a riot
I predict a riot
I predict a riot
So ya thought ya
Might like to go to the show?
To feel the warm thrill of confusion
That space cadet glow
Tell me, is something eluding you, sunshine?
Is this not what you expected to see?
If you wanna find out what’s behind these cold eyes
You’ll just have to claw your way through this disguise
Lights!
Turn on the sound effects
Action!
Drop it, drop it on ’em, drop it on them!
Us (us, us, us, us) and them (them, them, them, them)
And after all we’re only ordinary men
Me
And you (you, you, you)
God only knows
It’s not what we would choose (choose, choose) to do (to do, to do)
Forward he cried from the rear
And the front rank died
And the general sat
And the lines on the map
Moved from side to side
Black (black, black, black)
And blue (blue, blue)
And who knows which is which and who is who
Up (up, up, up, up)
And down (down, down, down, down)
And in the end it’s only round ‘n round (round, round, round)
Haven’t you heard it’s a battle of words
The poster bearer cried
“Listen son”, said the man with the gun
There’s room for you inside
“I mean, they’re not gonna kill ya
So if you give ’em a quick short, sharp, shock
They won’t do it again. Dig it?
I mean he get off lightly, ’cause I would’ve given him a thrashing
I only hit him once! It was only a difference of opinion, but really
I mean good manners don’t cost nothing do they, eh?”
Down (down, down, down, down)
And out (out, out, out, out)
It can’t be helped that there’s a lot of it about
With (with, with, with), without
And who’ll deny it’s what the fighting’s all about?
Out of the way
It’s a busy day
I’ve got things on my mind
For the want of the price
Of tea and a slice
The old man died
Little by little the night turns around
Counting the leaves which tremble at dawn
Lotuses lean on each other in yearning
Under the eaves the swallow is resting
Set the controls for the heart of the sun
Over the mountain watching the watcher
Breaking the darkness waking the grapevine
One inch of love is one inch of shadow
Love is the shadow that ripens the wine
Set the controls for the heart of the sun
The heart of the sun
The heart of the sun
The heart of the sun
The heart of the sun
The heart of the sun
The heart of the sun
The heart of the sun
The heart of the sun
The heart of the sun
The heart of the sun
The heart of the sun
The heart of the sun
The heart of the sun
Witness the man who raves at the wall
Making the shape of his question to heaven
Whether the sun will fall in the evening
Will he remember the lesson of giving?
Set the controls for the heart of the sun
The heart of the sun
The heart of the sun
The heart of the sun
The heart of the sun
The heart of the sun
The heart of the sun
The heart of the sun
The heart of the sun
The heart of the sun
The heart of the sun
The heart of the sun
The heart of the sun
The heart of the sun
The heart of the sun
I wake up in a cold sweat
Shoot, I feel like trash magic
Knew it was a dangerous idea
I’m in trouble now
Can’t stand up
Walls spin around
Bloodshot eyes
Can’t see the ground
Flipped my world upside down
I’m in trouble now
Yeah I like you
And it’s got me shook
I like you
Yeah you got me hooked
Come to me
Come to me
Come to me
Baby won’t you ring me out
(I like you)
I can’t stop this dirty linen
Shakin’ my head from left to right
Just throw me in the wash baby
‘Cause it’s been a night
This drunk heart palpitates
Makes me shake to the beat
To underneath the sheets
And we ain’t gonna sleep
Shorten my breath
Feelin’ it in my chest like uhh
Hope it never leaves
Yeah I like you
And it’s got me shook
I like you
Yeah you got me hooked
Come to me
Come to me
Come to me
Baby won’t you ring me out
I like you
And it’s got me shook
I like you
Yeah you got me hooked
I like you
And it’s got me shook
I like you
Yeah you got me
I like you
And it’s got me shook
I like you
Yeah you got me hooked
Come to me
Come to me
Come to me
Baby won’t you ring me out
(I like you)
Shook
(I like you)
Hooked
I like you
Shook
(I like you)
You like it?
Don’t ask me
What you know is true
Don’t have to tell you
I love your precious heart
I
I was standing
You were there
Two worlds collided
And they could never tear us apart
We could live
For a thousand years
But if I hurt you
I’d make wine from your tears
I told you
That we could fly
‘Cause we all have wings
But some of us don’t know why
I was standing
You were there
Two worlds collided
And they could never, ever tear us apart
I (Don’t ask me)
I was standing (You know it’s true)
Mm, you were there (Worlds collided)
Two worlds collided (We’re shining through)
And they could never tear us apart
You (Don’t ask me)
You were standing (You know it’s true)
I was there (Worlds collided)
Two worlds collided (We’re shining through)
And they could never tear us apart
I-I-I
I was standing
You were there
