Kennedy

Lyrics:

Lost your love of life?
Too much apple pie
Oh, have you lost your love of life?
Too much apple pie
And now Harry’s walked away with Johnny’s wife
You’ve got to pick some people up
You’ve got to let some people go
But if Lee’s name does come up, oh, well I really want to know
Because everybody loves a TV show

Lost your love of life?
Too much apple pie
Oh, have you lost your love of life?
Too much apple pie
And now Harry’s walked away with Johnny’s wife
You’ve got to pick some people up
You’ve got to let some people go
But if Lee’s name does come up, oh, well I really want to know
Because everybody loves a TV show

Lost your love of life?
Too much apple pie
Oh have you lost your love of life?
Too much apple pie
And now Harry’s walked away with Johnny’s wife
Ah

Thanks

Lyrics:

I bumped into Joe on Victoria Road
And he told me something about last weekend
He knows your new boyfriend
He said he saw it coming
And those letters I wrote
So now I know what you do with them
Well of course he looked
You sliced me up and then showed it to him

He’s changed around the posters on your wall
And finished all but one glass of your wine
His head’s been on the pillows that I bought
And now he’s seen me say “I love you” all those times

And the old photos in those silly clothes
There must be much more
God, the poems I sent and that massive dent I left in your door
I don’t want them back, you can burn the lot
I just feel betrayed
Well it’s been this long and all the flesh has gone but the bones remain

He’s changed around the posters on your wall
And finished all but one glass of your wine
His head’s been on the pillows that I bought
And now he’s seen me say “I love you” all those times

I still can’t get mad at you, no matter how I try
I still can’t get mad at you, no matter how I try

No

Lyrics:

Why can’t you pick up the telephone?
Oh, I know that you’re at home
I’m really past caring how you think
I just want to know about him

And you’re so right, they don’t miss a thing round here
And how do you think I feel?
Oh, you can try but you’re not getting out that way
You’re just as much to blame

And if it didn’t mean a thing
And you’ve told him to go
And if you’re as sorry as you say
Why didn’t you just say no?

It’s strange that this room’s so different now
Oh I didn’t come to row
It’s just this razor; he’s left it on your shelf
I’ll throw it out myself

And if it didn’t mean a thing
And you’ve told him to go
And if you’re as sorry as you say
Why didn’t you just say no?

Crushed

Lyrics:

Somewhere, sometime, I’ve got to say this somehow
Oh no, it’s fine, I couldn’t face it just now

Oh, oh, please don’t use that voice, I think I’ve made my choice
I’d change it if I could
Oh, you know I’m crushed inside, but goodness knows I’ve tried
I think I’ve had enough

Oh no, I swear. there’s no one else I promise
The ‘phone? Up there
But please don’t leave here like this

Oh, oh, please don’t use that voice, I think I’ve made my choice
I’d change it if I could
Oh, you know I’m crushed inside, but goodness knows I’ve tried
I think I’ve had enough

You’re late, been where?
Worried sick about you
All right, take care
I’m sorry that I hurt you

Oh, oh, please don’t use that voice, I think I’ve made my choice
I’d change it if I could
Oh, you know I’m crushed inside
Goodness knows I’ve tried
I think I’ve had enough
Ah

All About Eve

Lyrics:

“Tom”
I’ve read this page a thousand times
It’s the only way that I could find to carry on
“Say. Isn’t it a good life over here?
And can you catch another can of beer?
So sharp, so clear
You bet! And a good kaffir I’ve never met
But you know this heat will make them sweat!”
Tin wall, hot flesh
Oh man, I’m too full of hate to shake your hand
And don’t you ever call me your friend
He’ll take this land

Did you try to imagine the hate
That a young boy could feel?
Did you try to imagine the hate
That a young boy could feel?

Big game; four begging children by the train

The Afrikaner does the same
Then gets back on again
And who’s she?
“They call her Black Revolution Eve”
On the master’s land she sowed some seeds
Today she leaves

Did you try to imagine the hate
That a young boy could feel?
Did you try to imagine the hate
That a young boy could feel?
Did you try to imagine the hate
That a young boy could feel?
Did you try to imagine the hate
That a young boy could feel?

You Can’t Moan, Can You?

Lyrics:

I was just trying to hide a yawn
I think I’ve noticed that its dawn
But I’ll stay longer if you want
She just caught you off your guard
And I know it can be hard
But that’s really not the point

Well, just try to get away
Go and see your parents for a day
That’s what I’d do myself
She is not the only one
And its easier said than done
But try and think of something else

You have got everything that you need
You have got everything that you need
You have got everything that you need
You have got everything that you need
You have got everything that you need
You have got everything that you need

Anyone Can Make A Mistake

Lyrics:

When I set foot upon the bus, you laughed and said: “That’s the end for us!”
Oh, could a joke ever go more wrong?
If only you’d have come along
Oh but you must stop calling Jane
She is completely without blame
Do you have to ring her up so soon?
That’s rubbing salt into these wounds

A little bit of what you fancy doesn’t do you any good at all
Oh I know that now

I can’t add to what I’ve said
I just completely lost my head
Do you want me here when you start to pack?
And are you leaving just like that?
Have you taken all you want?
Is that it?
Have you really gone?
What can I say to change you mind?
There’ll never be another time

A little bit of what you fancy doesn’t do you any good at all
It’s so clear to me now

Give My Love To Kevin

Lyrics:

Why should I want to know his name?
What difference does it make?
You know I tried dead hard to keep away
I just had to call again
Where did you go last night?
Oh, what’s that new place like?
Okay, I won’t ask anymore questions
Then you can’t tell me lies

Well, they always need good men
They’re crying out for them
It’s not the sort of job I’d do myself, but then I’m not him
Oh, he buys you pretty things
And what does your mother think?
I just can’t bear to imagine you sharing a bed with him

Tell me …why should I be upset?
Some kid I’ve never met
We’d better sort this out before I go and say something I’ll regret
No, I’m sure it suits him
I’m not trying to be anything
Before I leave I want you to give my love to Kevin

It’s What You Want That Matters

Lyrics:

And this is for you; you must know it’s for you
What else can I think about?
I knocked on your door until my fingers were sore, although I’d guessed you were out
And what do I need?
Is it hunger or greed that has brought me here?
And what will I find?
Aren’t we two of a kind?
Oh, I take back everything; I didn’t mean a thing

And when you pull the strings; I don’t think you feel a thing

Don’t forget what I say, we can be back in one day
We can borrow your mother’s car*
Don’t sing me that song; I’ve been here for too long
Oh, you couldn’t have looked that far
You couldn’t have looked that far
I seem to recall you said nothing at all the day that this letter came
It must have been sent by the friend of a friend
Oh now I forget his name
I’m really not to blame

And when you pull the strings I don’t think you feel a thing
Oh, do you feel a thing?
And when you pull the strings I don’t think you feel a thing

*On the original recording this line was “pick up your mother’s car” but it’s been subsequently changed. Other lines have been subtly changed as well over the years.

Something And Nothing

Lyrics:

You’re not such a nice girl after all
It’s as much as you can do just to say hello
Have you got to stick your head inside that book?
Oh, you’ve noticed that I’m here, now please spare the dirty look!

It’s such a beautiful evening,
Oh, would you like to go out?
Oh, pardon me for breathing

I know you walk a different way each night
To avoid the men on the building site
But I waited half an hour for you to come
Oh, well you’ve missed your dad and the tea’s now overdone

Well, it’s only part of loving
Please don’t accuse me of making something out of nothing

There’s really nothing to be ashamed about
He’s a good looking kid; I think I’ve worked that bit out
And he seems to have the same desires as you
But if he’s that much fun, how come I’m not laughing too?

It’s such a beautiful evening
Oh, would you like to go out?
Oh, pardon me for breathing
I can’t help the way that I am
Oh, it’s only part of loving
Please don’t you tell me that I’m making something out of nothing

Silly, but true, you know I can’t help but feeling used
When the two of you get on so well together
A quiet drink, well what am I supposed to think
When the two of you…you dance so well together?
