Hairspray
Hairspray (Pauline Black & Nick Welsh) I met a girl I knew the other day I said hello, she looked the other way
Oh Oh Oh you must need a hairspray OhOhOh you're so set in your ways Oh Oh Oh you must need a hairspray
Shopping for fun may chase the blues away Imelda Marcos bought more shoes today
Oh Oh Oh you must need a hairspray OhOhOh you're so set in your ways Oh Oh Oh you must need a hairspray
Bored housewives re-arrange the pottery Hoping one day they'll win the lottery
Oh Oh Oh you must need a hairspray OhOhOh you're so set in your ways Oh Oh Oh you must need a hairspray
You're oh so hard You're oh so cool You're oh so smart You're just a spray on fool
I met a man who swore that Jesus Saves I asked him for a loan 'til Judgement Day
Oh Oh Oh you must need a hairspray OhOhOh you're so set in your ways Oh Oh Oh you must need a hairspray OhOhOh you're so set in your ways Oh Oh Oh you must need a hairspray Oh Oh Oh you must need a hairspray Oh Oh Oh you must need a hairspray OhOhOh you're so set in your ways Oh Oh Oh you must need a hairspray
With your spray on suit and your spray on hair Your spray on smile and your spray on stare Your spray on curls and you're spray on shirt You're just spray on dirt......
Die Happy (Pauline Black & Nick Welsh) Close up the candy store Pull down the blinds No problems anymore Everything's fine Throw out the papers The colour TV Don't want no distractions While I drink my tea
What if the world stops I wanna die happy I wanna die happy I wanna die happy
Pull up a chair I've got something to say Wise men and fools Always end the same way People are people For such a short time Humans are human Okay never mind
What if a bomb drops I wanna die happy I wanna die happy I wanna die happy
Close up the candy store Pull down the blinds Enjoy yourself Why not have a good time Humans are human We make so much mess Once I care more Now I couldn't care less
What if the world stops I wanna die happy (Look at all the bodies Dem a rockin' in de dance) I wanna die happy (A winy winy like dem Always in a trance) I wanna die happy (Me wan fe step up But me never get a chance) I wanna die happy (But never mind com Mek we give a second glance) I wanna die happy (Me never born yah So me going freelance)
No complications on my mind Enjoy myself and have a good time

Hearsay (Pauline Black & Nick Welsh) Small town people live small lives I swear they take you for a ride Everyday I hear the same It's always someone else to blame And it makes me mad
Annabelle's making me sad With all of her hearsay And it makes me mad Annabelle's making me sad With all of her hearsay Hearsay
Some of the lies I've tried to hush Would have made Godiva blush Kitchen drama full of soap (inside your pockets) Low on life and high on hope And it makes me mad
Annabelle's making me sad With all of her hearsay And it makes me mad Annabelle's making me sad With all of her hearsay Hearsay
Always crying on my shoulder Creeping round from home to home
Annabelle's making me sad With all of her hearsay And it makes me mad Annabelle's making me sad With all of her hearsay Hearsay Hearsay
So sad
My Perfect World (Pauline Black & Nick Welsh) Time was I thought I'd lost my appetite Truth was Back then Nothing came out right Meanwhile I found Someone I really like Sure thing This time Gonna put up a fight
All I want is a day without you All I want is a night with you All I want is to be forever Just wrapped up on our own In my perfect world
You do Voodoo You put a spell on me What's worse This curse Made a fool of me I heard You shout What do you want from me Who knows Right now Why not be with me
All I want is a day without you All I want is a night with you All I want is to be forever Just wrapped up on our own In my perfect world
All I want you to do is make it better It hurts So bad If I talk to you I've tried So hard God knows it's true
All I want is a day without you All I want is a night with you All I want is to be forever Just wrapped up on our own In my perfect world
Not So Tall (Pauline Black & Nick Welsh) I took a walk along a yellow street Where purple faces said it all I wasn't looking for no sympathy An opportunity to make me small Then my skin began to crawl
I took a bus up where the air is green And all year round the sky is blue The people all pretend that they can't see The mediocrity of what they do Believing what they say is true
Oh it's such a silly dream But you're not so tall Oh it's such a simple thing but you're not so tall Oh no you're not so tall At all
I took a stroll along a red-brick road Where baby's' cheeks are shiny brown I heard the crack of an almighty load The curiosity of that fat sound Brought all the children running round
Oh it's such a silly dream But you're not so tall Oh it's such a simple thing but you're not so tall Oh no you're not so tall At all
When I think of the good vibrations All the things I like to do Then I get a strange sensation Why is everyone so cruel
Oh you're not so tall Oh no you're not so tall, one day, some day)
Then She Did (Pauline Black & Nick Welsh) A cowboy whispered in her ear Anything I can do dear? His blue Cortina was parked so near She liked the idea Don't know why she fucked up Always drunk and drugged up Those chrome hearts, they rust up He said go, then she did
She staggered home at ten to four What's it to you dear Couldn't get the key in the door Ring in the New year! Don't know why she fucked up Always drunk and drugged up Those chrome hearts, they rust up He said go, then she did
Chipping away at a heart of chrome Love's shiny veneer The cowboy spends his nights alone Nothing left to do here Don't know how she puts up With no love to make up For stains on the tea cups He said go, she said no. Don't know why she fucked up Always drunk and drugged up Those chrome hearts, they rust up He said go, then she did Then she did Then she did
Vicky's Magic Garden(Pauline Black & Nick Welsh) Angora jumpers on the 10:15 Off to Brighton for the day She's gently swaying through her magazine Victoria is on her way
Oranges spinning in a Wimpy bar Although she knows it's not the same She sits and wonders where it all went wrong Wraps her coat around her pain
Oh the magic in her garden never grows The places and the faces that she used to know Oh the magic in her garden never grows The places and the faces that she used to know That she used to know
Cherry vanilla flavoured ice cream cone Lingers softly on her lips The memory of a guilty phone call home The wetness of a teenage kiss Sling-backs clicking on the wooden boards As she steps lightly on the pier She sits and watches as the sun goes down She'll be back this time next year
Oh the magic in her garden never grows The places and the faces that she used to know Oh the magic in her garden never grows The places and the faces that she used to know That she used to know
All the scooters, tonic suits and midnight features Shiny chrome, shiny lights and shiny people All the blues and all the tunes of pretty faces All the kings and queens and all the aces All the sundays and the mondays spending wages Now growing in the gardens of suburban places
