Celebrate the bullet
Don't just sit there I'm bored and so are you All you do is go on and on Why worry if things are okay It's a funny situation Who's innocence is all of this guilt Why think there's always someone else to blame But you still don't care if it doesn't reach you If it doesn't reach you
Can't you see what it means to be me I can't seem to get through to you and me We are in constant incommunicado, incommunicado, incommunicado
Just when I thought I must be numb to the pain They're still tampering inside But you still don't care If it doesn't reach you If it doesn't reach you
Boy me neck hot and sweaty- in the heat-in the city People let me down and piss around Never meaning what they say Each and every day Just when I thought it-it-it Here you take it
Deepwater, deepwater I'm in trouble and I'm up to my neck again Deepwater, deepwater I'm out of money and it's banked by the fat fish Opening and closing their mouths But there's no sound in my ears I never wanted to be in deepwater again
Deepwater, deepwater Too hard to sleep with my eyes open Deepwater, deepwater Crying ice cold tears, a drop in the ocean Killer sharks watching my every move Echoes of someone laughing at me I never wanted to be in deepwater again
Deepwater, drifting miles and miles and miles away Deepwater, drifting miles and miles and miles away Deepwater, drifting miles and miles and miles away Away.................................................. Away
Deepwater, deepwater Drown my sorrows with too many blues Deepwater, deepwater Sometimes I've had to cast away my pride Like a prisoner on an island watching the tide Cut-off, shut-off, no-one holds the key I never wanted to be in deepwater again
Deepwater, drifting miles and miles and miles away Deepwater, drifting miles and miles and miles away Deepwater, drifting miles and miles and miles away Away.................................................. Away
Deepwater, drifting downstream Won't you throw me a rope Deepwater, fighting the current Staring at your boat
Deepwater, drifting miles and miles and miles away Deepwater, drifting miles and miles and miles away Deepwater, drifting miles and miles and miles away Away.................................................. Away
Stretched out on the sofa Making witty conversation Instant coffee in the cups Then the milk went sour Now honesty was all I wanted Enough warmth to mix it right Didn't want my loving on the rocks But couldn't melt the ice
Then the door shut And the mirror falls My jagged image Rests against the wall
And I see Red reflections in the mirror of the night
The mirror shows all your secrets Puts all your fears on view It always plays its jokes Only when you're looking at you
And if loneliness was a colour It would be white But all I see is red reflections In the mirror of the night
The mirror shows all your secrets Puts all your fears on view The darkness lights your eyes In the quiet I hear a thousand sighs
Then the door slams shut And the mirror falls My jagged image Rests against the wall
And I see Red reflections in the mirror of the night>
We were friends do you remember Not so long ago Each and every time we meet You seem to be avoiding me I've been hearing things all around You've been saying that I'm a clown I guess the truth is plain to see Man to man is your worst enemy
Won't you tell me What have I done For you to try and bring me down I felt the change change towards me Tell me tell me what's wrong
Oh won't you tell me Oh won't you tell me Won't you tell me Tell me tell me what's wrong
After all's been said and done I guess that's how it ought to be Just you remember this The bad you do will follow you
I can see things more clearly now To me it just don't make no sense I guess the truth is plain to see You're now my enemy
Won't you tell me What have I done For you to try and bring me down I felt the change change towards me Tell me tell me what's wrong
Oh won't you tell me Oh won't you tell me Won't you tell me Tell me tell me what's wrong
I can see things more clearly now To me it just don't make no sense I guess the truth is plain to see You're now my enemy
Oh won't you tell me Oh won't you tell me Won't you tell me Tell me tell me what's wrong
After all's been said and done I guess that's how it ought to be
I hear an urgent message From a panicking voice Start moving your feet Get out into the street There's been a bombscare
An unattended bag in the corridor Looking innocent But we're all unsure There's been a bombscare
If this is a joke it's not funny to me My heart clocks the seconds and my shoes are loose Is someone out to get me Or is someone making headlines for the 9 o'clock news
Bombscare
Girl in the office Shoppers down in the street Do you care, do I care Now we're living in fear There's been a bombscare
The unattending hand Plays a bitter game A faceless choice Kill or maim This is a bombscare
Whoever you are now you've gone too far You're not fighting for them, you're not fighting for me Shatter glass, shut us up, cut us up brick it up, break it down Your good reasons mean nothing to me Now you're scared
Automatic printout brings the numbers and news Telephones are calling, but the lines are dead Is it the IRA or the SAS All you can do is stand and guess
Right in the east And down in the west People them a wonder A who a the best Lord, cho, let me tell you is a Bombscare For dis ya world is a bombscare
It's common knowledge there's always one exception Not quite a part of the crowd He tries so hard, just to laugh in the right places But he knows it's just not funny He has this feeling, he just knows it They don't like him 'cos he's different He knew all about the no-go areas But he went there just the same
He was washed up and left for dead Nobody told him he was just not wanted It got so cold after midnight Oh yeah
Don't want the money He just wants the fame There's something driving him inside
His friends don't like him 'cos they think that he's so stupid So he just goes out on his own He saw a movie that night and it moved him It was just like his life story But he got jumped by some thugs On the way home No-one came to his rescue
He was washed up and left for dead Nobody told him he was just not wanted It gets so cold after midnight Oh yeah
Night after night he's out biting the pavement Hurt his hands clapping for the group He can't dance, but he can certainly cause trouble Yeah, ah -ooh
He was washed up and left for dead Nobody told him he was just not wanted It gets so cold after midnight Oh yeah
Celebrate the bullet Put your finger on the trigger But you don't have to pull it 'cos you know it won't bring them Back to you, back to you
Celebrate the bullet But you have to snigger You told 'em all to shove it 'cos you know it won't bring them Back to you, back to you
Celebrate the bullet Celebrate the bullet Celebrate the bullet Celebrate the bullet
Celebrate the bullet Put your finger on the trigger But you don't have to pull it 'cos you know it won't bring them Back to you, back to you
Celebrate the bullet It all seems to get much bigger Do you really have to prove it 'cos you know it won't bring them Back to you, back to you
Celebrate the bullet Celebrate the bullet Celebrate the bullet Celebrate the bullet
Switching on the city lighting All the homes feel so secure 'cos the west is ever caring She can keep your home fires burning Switching to a bedroom lighting Hiding low you're insecure Hand around the candle you say There's no more joy to come tomorrow
Caught in the act You were taking your time You said nothing would change Nothing would change so Nothing would
Selling out your future Selling out your future
Drew the curtains shut the lights out Slept alone upon the floor But you couldn't stop the draught creeping Underneath the front door You ignored the press gang selling Lottery tickets at the stairs But you already sold your hat for A dark green helmet yesterday
Caught in the trap You had nothing to choose You saw everything lost You had nothing to say Nothing to say, so nothings said
Selling out your future Selling out your future
Switching on the city lighting All the homes feel so secure 'cos the west is ever caring She can keep the camera staring Switching on your colour vision Smiling faces lie to you Faded voices crying 'Fall into line The 'Fall out', comes tomorrow
Caught in the trap You were taking your time They were buying your mind You had nothing to say Nothing to say, so nothings said
Selling out your future Selling out your future
Cool blue lady sing your song Twist your heart out it won't take long Yeah you wonder just what it's all for No one would tell you they watch to see you fall
Cool blue lady cool blue lady Cool blue lady, cool blue lady
Cool blue lady you tried so hard How could those people play you like a card There's so much pain from what you got inside Makes you want to want to run and hide
Cool blue lady, cool blue lady Cool blue lady, cool blue lady
Cool blue lady how you sang the blues/p> When you loved how come no-one loved you You told your secrets and gave a lot of soul Seems like you had an impossible goal
Cool blue lady, cool blue lady Cool blue lady, cool blue lady
Just a shape Just a quick glimpse Loud immediately Just a quick glimpse Faces light up Glow in the daytime They're all gone Find no sense-keep moving on I looked at you Turn electric blue It doesn't matter At all to them That faces light up Glow in the daytime Dream goes on While their dream goes on
Cafe on the corner peeling painted sign Water in he vinegar and it never changes to wine Causing no fuss just smoking inside Heavy light bursts in and the shadows rush to hide
Then Bristol caught fire Smell of burning in the air Everybody listening to the reggae jukebox singer singing
Sing on, sing on Listen to the echo of the street Sing on, sing on Listen to the echo of the street
Four thousand miles to the west People only take so much When surrounded by the best they want to reach out and touch Miami beach hot and lazy Sun a yellow ball of light Hiding invisible men living in a world of white
Bristol and Miami Where's it gonna be tomorrow Anytime, anywhere It's only time we borrow
Sun beat down, hot heavy afternoon Hurricane swept the town, and didn't finish so soon Black smiles thrown in the dust Replaced by anger White grins begin to rust when They're looking in the face of danger
Then Miami caught fire Smell of burning in the air Everybody listening to the reggae jukebox singer singing
Sing on, sing on Listen to the echo of the street Sing on, sing on Listen to the echo of the street
Black man singing in the heat of the night Broken dreams just fly away
dy listening to the reggae jukebox singer singing
Sing on, sing on Listen to the echo of the street Sing on, sing on Listen to the echo of the street
Black man singing in the heat of the night Broken dreams just fly away
