letra de Little Shocks
I don't want much, I'm happy with what I've got,

On the second floor, I pass a ruffian on the stairs,

What the driver saw, through?the letter box of number four,

I don't have much, It will be deafening when I do

And all these little shocks, I'll be riding my imaginary dynamo,

I wish I could give you undivided attention every minute of the day but I can't,

I wish I could give you undivided attention every minute of the day but I can't

Bless my heart, and everything will be explained,

In the diaries, especially the latter part.

I'll be a somebody, I found an empty glass today at home,

Give me ability, turn up the pedal away from his hand

And all these little shocks, I'll be riding my imaginary dynamo,

I wish I could give you undivided attention every minute of the day but I can't,

I wish I could give you undivided attention every minute of the day but I can't,

I wish I could have you just a little bit more just a little bit more of your time,

I wish I could give you undivided attention every minute of the day but I can't

I wish I could give you undivided attention every minute of the day but I can't [x5]

And all these little shocks I'll be riding my imaginary dynamo,

I wish I could give you undivided attention every minute of the day but I can't,

I wish I could give you undivided attention every minute of the day but I can't,

I? wish I could have just a little bit more, just a little bit more of your time,

I wish I could give you undivided attention every minute of the day but I can't

letra de Things Change
Separate me from...

Separate this...

Life is all, life is always tales of lost and living

I could almost feel the breath that you were almost giving

I could see the silence in the way that you were talking

I could leave the signs and sirens if I could ignore it

Friday night, lose a little liberty

Saturday night, lose a lot of money

Sunday night, think about Friday

All my life, things change

Things change

Things change

Life is separated

Things change

Things change

Almost every day

In almost every way

Sights and sound of love is all that's left of modern living

Search for signs of life down alleyways of hidden cities

Friday night, lose a bit of sympathy

Saturday night, lose a lot of money

Sunday night, think about Friday

All my life, things change

Things change

Sights and sounds of modern living

I just can't do without the sights and sounds of modern living

Things change

Things change

Things change

Sights and sounds of modern living

Sights and sounds I just can't do without

Things change

Almost every day

In almost every way

Sights and sounds of modern living

I just can't do without the sights and sounds of modern living

I told the doctor, "Separate us"

He warned us, "Both may not survive"

Things change

Long Way from CelebratingVer letra 3:04

letra de Long Way from Celebrating
I'm only here trying to make a living

I need another midnight idea

Forty-five bottles lay abandoned

And my discount disappeared

Two lines written in the paper

And one of them is my name

I'm a long long way from celebrating

And it's never gonna be the same

Do I miss you?

I don't know

I just need something

For my soul

'Cos I'm a long long way from celebrating

Ever since I knew that you were crazy

You're like a human TV

Spending time with you is some challenge

With a reaction guaranteed

We'll all be home in time for tea and medals

And I could lick the pattern off a plate

I'm a long long way from celebrating

It's gonna be bitter sweet

Do I miss you?

I don't know

I just need something

For my soul

'Cos I'm a long long way from celebrating

Would I miss you?

Don't think so

Just gimme something

For my soul

'Cos I'm a long long way from celebrating

letra de Starts with Nothing
It starts with nothing

And it ends in nothing

You start with nothing

And you leave with nothing

It'll start with nothing

And will end in nothing

You arrive with nothing

And you leave with nothing

You're on your own on the last train home

Open your eyes you have arrived

You're on your own again

At the end

It starts with nothing

And it ends in nothing

You arrive with nothing

And you leave with nothing

Nobody knows where the money goes

You are alive and a passerby

And leave it all behind

Never mind

It starts with nothing

And it ends in nothing

You start with nothing

And you leave with nothing

It'll start with nothing

And will end in nothing

You arrive with nothing

And you leave with nothing

Yes that is my final answer

Yes that is my final answer

Yes that is my final answer

Yes that is my final answer

Yes that is my final answer

Yes that is my final answer

You're on your own on the last train home

Another tunnel on the circle line

With nothing up your sleeve

As you leave

It starts with nothing

And it ends in nothing

You start with nothing

And you leave with nothing

It'll start with nothing

And will end in nothing

You arrive with nothing

And you leave with nothing

Out of FocusVer letra 4:09

letra de Out of Focus
It's like nothing happened

When everything happened

You took it away

But that's the way I like it

I find myself laughing

Cuz everyone's laughing

I don't belong

Making up a number

Then there was nothing

In my mind

Then there was nothing

In my mind

I was just out of focus

In my mind

I was just out of focus

In my mind

I wasn't behaving

I wasn't invited

She could put it away

That's the way I like it

It's not entertaining

Being entertaining

I don't even work here

I operate the curtains

Then there was nothing

In my mind

Then there was nothing

In my mind

I was just out of focus

In my mind

I was just out of focus

In my mind

Then there was nothing

In my mind

Then there was nothing

In my mind

I was just out of focus

In my mind

I was just out of focus

In my mind

I was just out of focus

In my mind

Dead or in Serious TroubleVer letra 2:37

[X]
letra de Dead or in Serious Trouble
His photograph was taken in 1980 in New York on a subway train

He emerges days later, the sun in his eyes, and it started all over again

It spreads through the city like a hand-made virus and catching a glimpse of their lives

Beggars and bankers and flyboys and hookers all hang on together inside

He's either dead or in serious trouble, ah ah ah

He's either dead or in serious trouble, ah ah ah

Criminally minded and partially blinded, surviving on minimal sleep

Scars on his face and a stone in the place where his heart would previously beat

Travelling even faster in the wake of disaster and reaching at you from the bleak

Escaping and hiding or simply surviving, way down in the fluorescent deep

He's either dead or in serious trouble, ah ah ah

He's either dead or in serious trouble, ah ah ah ah ah

His photograph was taken in 1980 in New York on a subway train

Then he hit self-destruct with a battering ram and it started all over again

He's either dead or in serious trouble, ah ah ah

He's either dead or in serious trouble, ah ah ah

He's either dead or in serious trouble

He's either dead or in serious trouble

He's either dead or in serious trouble

He's either dead or in serious trouble

letra de When All Is Quiet
When you've got 24 hours left on the clock

What you gonna do?

What you gonna do?

When you are the last apple pie in the shop

What you gonna do?

What you gonna do?

Think about me

Think about me

When all is quiet, won't you think about --

Maybe I have missed the greatest day of my life

I hope that isn't true

I hope that isn't true

Ladies I have kissed could've all been my wife

But none of them were you

None of them were you

My darling

Oh, my darling

Think about me

Think about me

When all is quiet, won't you think about me?

I've been waiting for you (wasting my time)

Most of my life (wasting my time)

When all is quiet, won't you think about --

Think about me

Think about me

When all is quiet, won't you think about me?

I've been waiting for you (wasting my time)

Most of my life (wasting my time)

When all is quiet, won't you think about me?

Think about me

Think about me

Think about me

When all is quiet, won't you think about me?

I only wanna see the

I only wanna see the kinda girl you are

I only wanna see the

I only wanna see the kinda girl you are

I only wanna see the

I only wanna see the kinda girl you are

I only wanna see the

I only wanna see the kinda girl you are

I first heard you on the radio

And felt my heart explode

No other choice, I heard a voice and fell in love with you

From St. Bartholomew's to Gloucester Avenue

No one can do what you do, oh

I thought you were American, oh oh oh

I thought you were American, oh oh oh

I only wanna see the

I only wanna see the kinda girl you are

I only wanna see the

I only wanna see the kinda girl you are

Then I saw you in a centrefold

You were looking cold

In just an artfully positioned piece of mistletoe

Mentally dressing you, I want to rescue you

And make you mine, all mine, oh

I thought you were a miracle, oh oh oh

I thought you were a miracle, oh oh oh

Hey!

I thought you were incredible, oh oh oh

I thought you were incredible, oh oh oh

I only wanna see the

I only wanna see the kinda girl you are

I only wanna see the

I only wanna see the kinda girl you are

I only wanna see the

I only wanna see the kinda girl you are

I only wanna see the

I only wanna see the kinda girl you are

letra de Man on Mars
Put a man on Mars today

It wasn't the first time

I've seen it all before

Took my hat off in the rain today

It wasn't the first time

I've seen it all before

Trust you

Trust you

Trust you to know everything about me

Trust you

Trust you

Trust you to know everything about me all along

And the coffee is medicine

It's hard to remember

I've seen it all before

And the picture at the factory floor

Rats in a suitcase

I've seen it all before

Trust you

Trust you

Trust you to know everything about me

Trust you

Trust you

Trust you to know everything about me all along

Put a man on Mars today

It wasn't the future

I've seen it all before

Trust you trust you trust you to know eveything about me

Trust you trust you trust you to know everything about me all along

All along

All along

All along

letra de Child of the Jago
This is your nightmare calling

It's the downside of life in the city

Trouble will always find you

That's the problem of life in the city

It's always a pity

That someone goes under

I'll show you the worse side of life

That you thought was forgotten forever

It's not that it's evil there

But it's always lurking around

Like a child of the Jago

A child of the Jago

Yeah yeah

The city's a cemetary

Everywhere that you dig is another

Open it up beneath you

And the bad things are pulling you under

And once you go under

You're gone and forgotten

Some of the symmetry

Between the rooftop pools in the sewer

It's easy to disappear

When you know that nobody would miss you

Like a child of the Jago

A child of the Jago

Yeah yeah

Theres always been weary souls

That look like they're straight out of fiction

Wretched and weather-beaten

With the wind blowing rain in their faces

It always disgraces

In most modern places

There's always a worse kind of place

Where it will shock even the sick and the twisted

Pocket is there for the picking

And the clothes are for living on church day

The difference is minor

To a child of the Jago

Yeah yeah

The future is medieval

The future is medieval

The future is medieval

The future is medieval

Yeah yeah

The future is medieval

The future is medieval

The future is medieval

The future is medieval

Yeah yeah

The future is medieval

The future is medieval

letra de Heard It Break
I swear I heard it break

I swear I heard it break, break

I swear I heard it break, break

I swear I heard it break

It feels like I broke my heart again but it's just a sprain

It feels like I broke my heart again but it's just a sprain

I could've sworn that I heard it snap

But they tell me it's just a sprain

It's been broke before but this hurts some more

Stretched beyond normal capacity and possibly torn

But they do say a sprain hurts more than a break

Or is that just to make you feel better about it?

I swear I heard it break

I swear I heard it break, break

I swear I heard it break, break

I swear I heard it break

It feels like I broke my heart again but it's just a sprain

It feels like I broke my heart again but it's just a sprain

Something is wrong a crack in the world

That'll never be right again

I'm not coping well and it's starting to tell

One thousand missed oppurtunites and possibly more

All I had to do was to look after you

And it turns out that I'm the one who needs looking after

I swear I heard it break

I swear I heard it break, break

I swear I heard it break, break

I swear I heard it break

It feels like I broke my heart again but it's just a sprain

It feels like I broke my heart again but it's just a sprain

It feels like I broke my heart again but it's just a sprain

It feels like I broke my heart again but it's just a sprain

letra de Coming Up for Air
In the west of town there's no promised land

And if you can't get that through your head then fine

And if you want me to be honest with

You can ask me and I'll tell you everything

And if you want to know a lie

Then I'll tell you a lie

If you want to know the truth

Then I'll tell you

Oh when you're coming up for air

And you think there's someone there

No you won't see me

Coz I'm faster than you think

As the world flies by and I close my eyes

To empty office buildings and the five-a-side

Where the air is thin in the morning light

If I'm on this road I'm gonna wait again

And if you want to know a lie

Then I'll tell you a lie

If you want to know the truth

Then I'll tell you

Oh when you're coming up for air

And you think there's someone there

No you won't see me

Coz I'm faster than you think

If you want the truth then just ask me

I will give it to you but you won't like it much

And if that's okay then we'll get on fine

And if not then we can call it quits

And if you want to know a lie

Then I'll tell you a lie

If you want to know the truth

Then I'll tell you

Oh when you're coming up for air

And you think there's someone there

No you won't see me

Coz I'm faster than you think

And if that's okay then we'll get on fine

And if not then we can call it quits

letra de If You Will Have Me
I don't know if you'll hear this song

And if you do you might not know

That it's a tribute to the man who made our world go around

I don't know if you'll hear this song

But if you do you're not alone

So dance while you can and cry while you can let the world go around

And if you will have me

I want to be the son that I was

And if you will have me

I want to be the boy from the photograph

I miss the daily phone call

And I miss the good advice

And my brother misses everything, he's just looking for you

It's the longest of goodbyes

So many lows and no real highs

There seems so little we can do, we see glimpses of you

And if you will have me

I want to be the son that I was

And if you will have me

I want to be the boy from the photograph

You can't fight life, so dance while you can

You can't fight life, so just dance while you can

And if you will have me

I want to be the son that I was

And if you will have me

I want to be the boy from the photograph

And if you will have me

I want to be the son that I was

And if you will have me

I want to be the boy from the photograph
