[QUOTE="Floyd, post: 819, member: 1"] [B]Woman From Tokyo[/B] Fly into the rising sun, Faces, smiling everyone Yeah, she is a whole new tradition I feel it in my heart My woman from Tokyo She makes me see My woman from Tokyo She's so good to me Talk about her like a Queen Dancing in a Eastern Dream Yeah, she makes me feel like a river That carries me away My woman from Tokyo She makes me see My woman from Tokyo She's so good to me But I'm at home and I just don't belong ... So far away from the garden we love She is what moves in the soul of a dove Soon I shall see just how black was my night When we're alone in Her City of light Rising from the neon gloom Shining like a crazy moon Yeah, she turns me on like a fire I get high My woman from Tokyo She makes me see My woman from Tokyo She's so good to me [B]Mary Long[/B] Mary Long is a hypocrite She does all the things that she tells us not to do Selling filth from a corner shop And knitting patterns to the high street queue She paints roses, even makes them smell good And then she draws titties on the khazy wall Drowns kittens just to get a thrill And writes sermons in the Sunday Chronicle How did you lose your virginity, Mary Long ? When will you lose your stupidity, Mary Long ? Mary told Johnny not to write such trash Said it was a waste of public money She made a fuss, they made apologies But everybody thought the show was funny When the nation knew you'd had children It came as such a surprise We really didn't know you'd had it in you How you did it we can only surmise How did you lose your virginity, Mary Long ? When will you lose your stupidity, Mary Long ? Mary Long, you're not alone But you're a long way behind our times What we do in full frontal view Is more honest than your clean-up mind What I'm saying, Mary Long is When you can spare a minute Go find your friend the porny Lord Dig your self a hole and jump in it How did you lose your virginity, Mary Long ? When will you lose your stupidity, Mary Long ? [B]Super Trouper[/B] I was a young man when I died I was a flash, I was full of pride I gave it all, I gave my soul, I was so strong I felt the truth, I felt the pain in every song How well you know me You've seen me cry I'm just a shadow In a rock and roll sky I was living in a rock and roll sky I was a king, heavy on the style Super trouper, yes I know you well, making me shine I couldn't see what you did to me. I was so blind How well you know me You've seen me cry I'm just a shadow In a rock and roll sky I wanna be like I was before But this time I'm gonna know the score I need a home I can leave behind knowing you're there Super trouper, I can see you now, return your stare How well you know me You've seen me cry I'm just a shadow In a rock and roll sky [B]Smooth Dancer[/B] Black suede, don't mean you're good for me Black suede, just brings your mystery I want to be inside of you But you're black and I don't know what to do You're a smooth dancer But it's alright Cos I'm a freelancer And you can never break me though you try To make me think you're magical Baby, you're the one who can never see the sun Because it don't shine nightly Don't you look at me because I'm gonna shake free You'd better hang on tightly You wanna rule the world, but you're acting like a girl Who's got a false pregnancy You've swollen up inside with nothing but your pride And yet you keep on dancing Black suede, don't waste your time on me Black suede, I sense your mockery I tried to go along with you But you're black and I know just what to do You're a smooth dancer But it's alright Cos I'm a freelancer And you can never break me though you try To make me think you're magical I think you're crazy, your two-timing ways They don't bother me none You'd better do it right because one day or night I'm gonna walk to freedom You know I loved you once and I wanna love again But you don't give nothing You can see it in my eyes so you've got to realize Baby, I ain't bluffing Black suede, don't waste your time on me Black suede, don't bring me misery I tried to be inside of you But you're black and now I know what to do You're a smooth dancer But it's alright Cos I'm a freelancer And I can tell you're faking though you try To make me think you're magical Baby, you're the one who can never see the sun Because it don't shine nightly Don't you look at me because I'm gonna shake free You'd better hang on tightly You know I loved you once and I wanna love again But you don't give nothing You can see it in my eyes so you've got to realize Baby, I ain't bluffing Baby, you can rock'n'roll But you can never show your soul, smooth dancer [B]Rat Bat Blue[/B] Hey baby, what you gonna do When the lights go up on you ? What's your name, can I drive you home ? Sweet woman, are you all alone ? You're the one for me I'm gonna keep you busy as a bee, could bee, could be Rat bat blue Now, get up woman, don't be slow It's getting late and I wanna go No cause for acting big Got to love, got to live Stick around with me I'm gonna show you things you never thought you'd see, you see Rat bat blue You're so fine Get out ! You didn't understand I'm a hard loving man No way you can satisfy The way you look, the way you lie And when you shut the door Make sure I don't see you 'round here no more Rat bat blue Alright [B]Place In Line[/B] I'm living in this line I know my place, could think of no way Of edging along in a loser's race The line was moving slowly Day by night Everybody's shuffling on to keep a place in the line Nine long years I've been in line Getting nowhere there is no reason For this line I don't care. Everybody's standing in the burning sun Everybody's shuffling on keeping a place in the line Don't you think we're gonna make it We've got a place in line We're gonna make it some time Somehow [B]Our Lady[/B] Thinking out of line just to make the sun shine Anyway I can be like you Fighting with the truth Trying to hide a fool in a fantasy I'm dreaming, lay me down and take me now Our Lady of the skies Hiding in the sun like a loaded gun reality Aiming high at my dream But I can get along She makes me strong, anyway I'm dreaming and there is no other way Our Lady of the skies Flying in the sky with a bunch of high fidelity I can hear your song Offer me a ring just to show me your sincerity I'm dreaming, let me go Our Lady of the skie [/QUOTE]
