GREAT BIG CITY
Great big city
Great big lies
Eating up
So many lives
Great big city
Big bad heart
Why is it so hard
For us to part
Great big city
Full of dreams
Why is my head
Filled with screams
Great big city
You don't care
Live or die
You're always there
Big bad city
Lets go o'me
Gotta go
Gotta break free
GROUND ZERO
Verse 1
The broken hearted gambler
Who winds up at your doorstep
With bankrupted soul
He knows who you are
And in all your quiet moments
Do you ever wonder
Why you ever did it
Perhaps you went too far
(Chorus)
But I can see your heart
I know you are a hero
I just don't know where to start
I'm stuck here at ground zero
Verse 2
The scandals of the masses
Pass you by unhindered
You can't see the worst of men
You only see the best
You are my Madonna
My lady of the pavements
And when I look in your eyes
I see them shine for me
(Chorus)
And I can see your heart
I know you are a hero
I just don't know where to start
I'm stuck here at ground zero
HEART OF STONE
Verse 1
I'm looking for a heart of stone
Want to make it all my own
Don't want no broken heart
Now I wanna live apart
(Chorus)
East come and easy go
Never learnt to let go
Want to be on my own
I just need a heart of stone
Verse 2
I've gotta toughen up my heart
Take the horse from behind the cart
I don't need no setting free
All I need's a tougher me
Verse 3
I wanna see those foreign parts
Won't travel with no bleeding heart
No loving now for you or me
That's the way that I'll get free |
HOKEY POKEY

Oh hokey hokey pokey
Oh hokey hokey pokey
Oh hokey hokey pokey
Put it in
Pull it out
Shake it all about

You pull if out
In out

Shake it all about
You do the hokey pokey
All through the night
And that's what it's all about
Verse 2
You out it in
You pull it out
In out
In out
Shake it all about
You do the hokey pokey
All through the night

HOT TEARS
Verse 1
Hot tears on the covers
Ice in your heart
Why can't we be lovers
Why are we apart
Verse 2
Cold nights sad and lonely
Alone in our bed
Yes I love you only
Was it something that I said

White sheets so cold
Cold as your heart
I can't just grow old
Don't want to stay apart
HOW LONG
Verse 1
The touch of your sleeve
The look in your eye
I have to leave
Before I cry

How long now
How long since you left me
How long now
Will you soon forget me

The sound of your voice
The touch of your hair
I've got no choice
It just isn't fair

How can I break free
How can I forget
You once loved me
I have just regrets

We've known
How many times
I held your hips
How many times
Mi I alone
Verse 3

You and I
Raised to lover's bliss
How many times
You and I
Parted on a kiss
How many times
Have I dreamt
Of holding you again
How many times
Have I seen
You with other men
I AM A PRINCE OF PEACE
Verse 1

I have a classic car
I own a stately home
But you take me too far

I didn't need no-one
But you took away my fight

Gotta get rid of you
Gotta get rid of you
Gotta get someone new
Gotta get rid of you
