KICKS :
VERSE 1.
Kids on the corner of a Doorway saved my Life
Shooting the hoops as the Old School burns for time
Stoned to the gods as we break a brothers soul
Headers are bliss and Breda’s Rock n Roll
Kicks that We Live For
Oh Kicks That We Live For
VERSE 2.
Washing the feet as we nick some Holy change
Dancing on roofs by Mooretown’s rebel grave
Crashing the bikes as we pile down Chapel Hill
Smashing a chord as we all Have time to Kill
Kicks that We Live For
Oh Kicks That We Live For
Chorus:
Take it Outside where the boys wont Spill your name
Dodging the Guards & no one sees your Game
Clash & The Gillys and the fields where cans are free
Battle alone with your cures and the pure relief
It’s Life
Kicks that We Live For
Oh-
Kicks That we Live For
(Guitar/Piano Instrumental)
Verse 3.
Turn your playground into where Rome burned
Spin into night for a Kiss that Silken yearns
Tease another ghost by The Tower at Studio One
Looking Around & See What a Man Becomes
(CHORUS:)
It’s Life
Oh Kicks That We Live For
Oh kicks That We Live For
Oh kicks That We Live For
“Kicks that we Live for” till End.

SLIP INTO SOMETHING

Slip Into Something-
Lord won’t you let this old heart lie still
Dance of the Creatures in the Land of no Thrill
Dreams in the Slam-Walk that ole Crooked Line
Down to the Sea- Let the Oceans Wash my mind
And Those girls on the side got their Mojo Risin
It’s a Living Fickle Thing
CHORUS:
(Woh ooh ooh oh)This ship of Fears & It’s Listing to the side
(I say Woh ooh ooh oh) Now you’re Forgiven-Won’t you slip in…
Slip Into Something.
Hey
Alright
Lord won’t you let this ole World Spin wild
She’s the queen-She’s the country
See the Devil got her smile
I’m a calm little Patriot-I’m an Upstanding Man
There’s a burning to her Colours
See the Storm rage in her palm.
And the girls on the side got their Mojo Risin’
Now the Preacher sees the Light.
(CHORUS)
I am Living-I am Kicking
She’s the Goddess with the Sinful Eyes-Repeat till End

IF I SHOULD
03:52
|
|||
If I Should:
If I Should Take My feet from The Ground
For too Long
The World would make me Dizzy And Crazy….
If I Should Fail to Turn around-
Hear your Call
The World might spin But I might fall apart.
If I Should Look into your eyes-
Seem I’m blind
Stare into Forever-Find Angels
There’s a future that we hold
We’re not just getting old
Won’t you be there too
Chorus:
I’ve just seen Arthur C Clarke on a beach somewhere
Frogs falling out of the Skies in Fear
Things that would make you move
That’s Alright –But Love is The Sun Coming Up
I’ve got the change in my Cup
I’m gonna share this with you
Brother You’re coming too.
(Solo)
Chorus 2:
I’ve just seen –Miracles made on a Field of dreams
Chilean Boys in their cage of steel
Singing their way back home
All that’s nice –But Love is The Sun Coming Up
I’ve got the change in my Cup
I’m gonna share this with you
Brother You’re coming too.
I’ve got a ticket for Life
Rolling the Dice would be nice
Sharing the cards on a stone
I can’t make this alone
Everyone’s looking for Love
Shooting the Stars up above.
But I got a ticket for life
Let’s shake the World.

TO KILL A GIANT
1.
WHAT’S IT LIKE TO KILL A GIANT
TO SPILL HIS BLOOD AND STEAL HIS MIGHT
WALK A MILE IN FABLED SHOES
KISS THE DICE AND NEVER LOSE
2.
WHAT’S IT LIKE TO KILL A GIANT
PICK HIS BONES WITH SHEER DELIGHT
THE VILLAGERS SHOUT YOUR NAME
THE KING IS GONE-KING IS SLAIN
Chorus No.1
DIDN’T GET TO SEE THE FIGHT
THE UPPERCUT IT DIDN’T HIT ME RIGHT
FALL UPON THE COLD AND GREASY FLOOR
THE NEW YEAR BELLS ARE KILLING ME ONCE MORE
SOMETIMES WE NEVER SEE THE BRAVE
DROWNING LIKE THE CATS BENEATH THE WAVE
TURN OUR CARES AND DREAMS TO NEVERLAND
STILL FEEL THE STINGING
3.
WHAT’S IT LIKE TO KILL A GIANT
TO TWIST THE HAND THAT BREAKS GOLIATH
THREAD UPON HIS CRAZY DREAMS
THE KING IS DEAD- THE KING IS ME
CHORUS NO .2
DIDN’T TURN THE OTHER CHEEK
MORTIFIED YOUNG DANCER ON THE STREET
THE BEGGARS AND BELIEVERS WILL BE KIND
ALL LOOKING FOR THE MINDFULNESS INSIDE
SOMETIMES YOU OUGHT TO LOSE CONTROL
RUSH OF BLOOD THE WORLD WILL SURELY KNOW
THROW MY CARES AND DREAMS TO NEVERLAND
STILL FEEL THE STINGIN’
A HOLE IN MY HEAD
I PUT THE INNOCENCE TO BED
OH WHAT’S IT LIKE TO KILL A GIANT
TO SPILL HIS BLOOD AND STEAL HIS MIGHT
TO WALK A MILE HIS FABLED SHOES
WE WIN OR LOSE
YOUR SINS FORGIVEN
YOUR SINS FORGIVEN

SINGLE STATION
03:39
|

Single Station:
Just a moonless man
Before the day began
Lost to the night to prove
The dark is cooler than you.
And the head ain’t feeling grand
No lord can save this man
Where is the light –Where is the groove
Where is the light that shines
Who can save the naked fool..
Chorus:
And I won’t be Single Station
No I won’t be Single Station-No I…
I walk upon I drift along
Unremarkable streets of song where
I’m not hearing free
Like a soulless angel from a different tree
I’ll be forever looking down on the party.
Heavens inside.Let me inside.
Strangeness is a forgotten little world.
Chorus:
There’s hardness all around….
Love belongs like a bottle to a bar.
There I’m found
Pick me up come on spill me to your heart.
Repeat.I know..love belongs etc
Just a moonless man
Before the day began
Lost to the night to prove
The dark is cooler than you
Cooler than you.

Take Me to Your Leader
Verse 1
The Bear of the Bad dreams
Just Came alive.
He’s cancelled the circus
No Hugs or Fights
King of the Flash Car
Flash That Smile yea
Put Whiskey in His Honey
The Bear Got Style
You Know The Bears Alive…
Verse 2.
So Turn another Dream off
Feel The Force
Ride into The Country
Then Shoot That Horse
Fix a Brother Easy
Then Trick his mind
The World is falling on Us
The Cage is Fine
Ant the Bear won’t play your Silly Little Games
No more Lazy Times.
Chorus:
Take me to your Leader
And Don’t Talk Back
Takes your blood to feed ya
What’s All That
The Bear of the Bad Dreams
Just came Alive
He’s crashed another country
It’s over the side
You know the Bears Alive
You Know The Bears Alive-Oh Yea
Solo-
Woh Oh Woh Oh Woh Oh Woh Oh
Woh Oh Oh Oh Oh Oh(*4)
You Know The Bears Alive
Nearly 40 Years

PEAR

Pear:
I was a King-Suede on My Shoes
Never Gonna be Beside again
A Woman I’d Lose
Fought and I Cursed And I Swore So Hard
I Dang nearly Died
Pick this way if you wanna Live
But Don’t steal my Pride
If it All Should go( Pear)(*2)
I was a Freak-By the Gumball Machine
Whisked around and Sacrificed
But the Models retreat
Walked the lanes-my feet in flames
I dang nearly died
Twist another Queen for me
And I’ll show you my Side
Is there Something in the Water Baby
Is there Something in the Air that you’re savin’
Turn me over I’ll be done on one side
Turn me over and I’ll show you my meaning
But the World won’t turn me On…
Chorus:
If it All Should Go Pear(*2)
If it All Should Go Belly Up
All That Stormy Stuff
Don’t Go
Stay in my Heart –You’ll Be( Fine)
(Repeat Chorus)
I was Taking Leaves-
Falling through the trees
All the places that plagued my mind
Take me over girl-
Show me where the World Ends
And I’ll show you mine….
(Solo)
(Build up to End)
If it All Should go Pear(4)
If it All Should go( Belly Up)
If it All Should go
Don’t go-
Stay in my Heart-You’ll Be Fine
You’ll Be Fine-
You’ll Be Fine-Woh –oh-oh-oh. (End)

EVERYTHING UNDER THE SUN:
I’M GONNA STEP RIGHT DOWN

WATCH THE WORLD WITHIN - BABY

EVERYTHING THAT SHINES NO MORE
EVERYTHING THAT’S UP FOR GRABS

CAN A NEWNESS GROW
LIKE A DRUG FROM THE GROUND - ANGEL

NOW THEY’RE TEARING US APART
FROM THEIR CASTLES OF SONG
SO WHO’S FALLEN DOWN

OUR LIVES
NO SOLDIER ASKS FOR WAR-YEA

THE QUEEN OF LIFE
HAS FALLEN OVER
THE DEEPEST HEART
MY FOUR LEAF CLOVER
AND THRU IT ALL
SHE SMILES SHE CALLS
SHE TAKES MY HAND

IN EVERY HILLSIDE
BY FAIRY FORTS AND MOONLIT SPRINGTIDES
HER MUSHROOM BOYS
WILL SEE HER SMILE
HER HAPPY TEARS
HER RAINBOW SKY
