Work Is A Four-letter Word
Loving you is driving me crazy
People say that you were born lazy
cause you say that
Work is a four-letter word
So change your life
There is so much I know
That you can do
Come and see ...
Wide-awake
And take all of this love
That is waiting for you
If you stay
Ill stay right beside you
And my love
May help to remind you
To forget that
Work is a four-letter word
I dont need
A house thats a showplace
I just feel
That were going no place
While you say that
Work is a four-letter word
So change your life
There is so much I know
You can do
Come and see ...
Wide-awake
And take all of this love
That is waiting for you
If you stay
Ill stay right beside you
And my love
Might help to remind you
To forget that
Work is a four-letter word
Oh ...
I dont need
A house thats a showplace
I just feel
That were going no place
While you say that
Work is a four-letter word
So change your life
There is so much I know
That you can do
Please come and see ...
Wide-awake
And take all of this love
That is waiting for you

Love Ain't Nothing But A Four Letter Word
She was waiting alone at the station praying for her train to arrive
Thinking bout her destination, the tattered bag had all she had in life
She turned her back on her family, she turned her back on her friends
She turned her back on a married man when she took off that wedding band
She said, Im giving up, silver clouds have turned to grey
Had enough, theres got to be a better way
Giving up, you know youve gotta walk
Theres some things in life still worth fighting for
Aint no big secret so forget all you heard
Love aint nothing but a four-letter word
For some its for better, for some its for worse
Love aint nothing but a four-letter word
Love aint nothing
This time he said was the last time, last time he said just the same
In your heart you know that theyll be a next time
That your battered bones would have to explain
Givin up, nothings changing but the score
Had enough, every night love turns to war
Give it up, gave it all and wanted more
It aint nothing worth dying for
Its no big secret so forget all you heard
Love aint nothing but a four-letter word
For some its a blessing, for some its a curse
Love aint nothing but a four-letter word
Love aint nothing
Forget your mamas rosary beads to get you through this time of need
You know you gotta cross that line
You take it one day at a time
Had enough, the silver clouds all turning grey
Im heading for a better day
No big secret so forget all you heard
Love aint nothing but a four-letter word
For some its for better, for some its for worse
Love aint nothing but a four-letter word
Love aint nothing (it aint nothing now, baby)
Love aint nothing but a four-letter word
Love aint nothing (nothing now, baby)
Love aint nothing but a four-letter word
Love aint nothing (yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah)
Love aint nothing but a four-letter word
Love aint nothing...

Love Is Just A Four Letter Word
love is just a four letter word
no one knows what love is
you can argue all yo want about being in love
even grown ups dont know what love is
love sucks
love hates
love breaks
love is just a four letter word
love waits, and love does not pressure
love is just a word
is love even real
how would you know
love is all you hear about
i love her, i love him
NO YOU DONT
love is kind
love is a feeling
how do u know when someone really loves you
love is just a four letter word

Red Letter Day
(tennant/lowe)
------------------
Go to work and take your calls
Hang the fruits
Of your labour on the walls
Such precision and care
What does it matter
If theres no one here to share
Flowers in the garden
Blue wine
The waiting for godot
And so much modern time?
All I want
Is what you want
Im always waiting
For a red letter day
The years perfecting a stance
Of measured cool
Fade into insignificance
The moment one starts to understand
What on earth
Does it profit a man?
All I want
Is what you want
Im always waiting
For a red letter day
For something special
Somehow new
Someone saying i love you
Baby, Im waiting
For that red letter day
You can sneer
Or disappear behind a veneer
Of self-control
But for all of those who dont fit in
Who follow their instincts
And are told they sin
This is a prayer for
A different way
All I want
Is what you want
Im always waiting
For a red letter day
Like christmas morning
When youre a kid
Admit you love me
And you always did
Baby Im hoping
For that red letter day
Today

Work
Keep your fingers busy
Mentally or physically
What four-letter word
Dyou know like ...
Look at me smile
Look at me doing their
Work
Ysee me shuffle in the dirt
My how I sweat
But I dont mind
Cause its work
You got me rolling up my shirt
Theres all my old friends
Sat by the fountain drinking beer
Their days have no starts and no ends
They drift into pub nights with no
Promise for tomorrow
All that they want is some
Work
Work
Look at me smile
Look at me polish these
Tools
Am I breaking all the rules?
A cycle like that
I dont want to be late for school
Well its night school
Now all my new friends
Sit in their [site] huts drinking tea
My day has no start and no ends
Drifts into whole nights in my
Coffin by the fireside
Bugger this game
I know whos to blame
And thats
Work
Aw, work
Keep your fingers busy
Mentally or physically
What four-letter word
Dyou know like
Oh! work, work
Oh! work, work
Im back with my old friends
Sat by the brunel drinking beer
Dont want this to ever end
Were living in fear of being
Mizzled by a new myth
Work
I dont want to go to work
Work
I dont want to go to work

No Love / Just Fate
Love what is love,
is it not the confusion we create threw the misconception of another four letter word -Lust
-
Lust what is lust,
but ones sensual desire to explore someone elses body with the soul intention of pleasure without commitment therefore avoiding the most important but five letter word -Trust
-
Trust what is trust,
is it not the secret to everlasting friendship threw the disposal of another four letter word-Envy
-
Envy what is envy,
but the one thing most capable of destroying the illusion of love for it is the main cause of my next four letter word-Pain
-
Pain what is pain,
is it not what we all have to endure to to maintain that which we are mislead to desire from birth -Love
-
Love what is love,
is it not the illusion we create in ones own mind to dissolve our deepest subconscious fear of dieing alone even though we have not the choice due to this four letter word-Fate
-
Fate what is fate,
is it not inevitable

Four Down And Twelve Across
I dont know what to think of it
Sometimes I hate it
Sometimes I love it
Girl, this relationship were in
To say the least its puzzlin
Like a crossword puzzle
Fill in the blanks
Chorus:
Whats four down and twelve across
Two letter synonym for lost Thats me
And a three letter word
That rhymes with through
Oh I get it, thats you
Never believed in horoscopes
But to the left of the ad
For a new dishwashin soap
Dear Abbys got some good advice
For a troubled couple lost in paradise
In the Living section
Page two
Whats four down and twelve across
Two letter synonym for lost
Thats me
And a three letter word
That rhymes with through
Oh, I get it
Thats you, thats me, thats us
Sometimes love aint enough
We try and try
For the life of me, why did we give up
Chorus
Thats me
Oh, thats us
Whats four down and twelve across Thats us

A message to my love
What is the meaning of love
Love is not some made up word that hallmark has come up with
Love is not just a 4 letter word that is used to make everything better
Love is a bond
Love is full of pain and heart ache
Love is something that comes from no where yet stays for a lifetime love is an unseen friend that warms your heart when everything seems to be going so wrong love is something that is always with you even when no1 is there to say it love can bring 2 ppl together love can push 2 ppl apart love is what u make of it love is happy full of joy full of fear full of life love is well love, love is just a 4 letter word to some but to me love is knowing u can always count on someone to be there even when they are not around, love is the memories that we share even after they are no longer there, love to me is just knowing you are ok even when u show me u don't care, love to me is what it is a bond that we will always share long after it seems to not be there u will always have a spot in my heart love.

Writting
When i feel lost lonely and have nowhere to go,
the words keep me company and im a loner no more,
Letters come together in my minds free flowing from my
heart,
Two letters one letter many letters make up words,
Long words short word
bring up sentences that form up,
my concious wades throught them picking seeking to join
short and long and make it work,
No rules to my word play anything u want can stay a
concortion a work of art,
Am lost in emotions,
lost in expressions,
pronouns adjectives and nouns,
Lay them straight,
hang them down they still are need a flow to make a sweet
sound,
The rhyme,
the time is put into consideration when iplay with all my words,
My best friend is my pen, my paper and my head there is no limit to what i can,
Its a poem am at it a work of art in progress i love the work
of my hands...

Need Your Loving Tonight
No I'll never look back in anger
No I'll never find me an answer
You promised me you'd keep in touch
I read your letter and it hurt me so much
I said I'd never never be angry with you
I don't wanna feel like a stranger no
Because I'd rather stay out of danger
I read your letter so many times
I got your meaning between the lines
I said I'd never never be angry with you
I must be strong so she won't know how much I miss her
I only hope as time goes on I'll forget her
My bodies aching can't sleep at night
I'm to exhausted to start a fight
And if I see her with another guy
I'll eat my heart out because I love her
Love her love her love her
Come on baby let's get together
I'll love you baby I'll love you forever
I'm trying hard to stay away
What made you change? What did I say?
Oooh I need your loving tonight
Oooh I need your loving
Oooh I need your loving
Oooh I need your loving babe tonight
Hit me
Oooh I need your loving tonight
No I'll never look back in anger
No I'll never find me an answer
Can't be no warning how could I guess?
I'll have to learn to forgive and forget
Oooh I need your loving
Oooh I need your loving
Oooh I need your loving tonight

The Letter
She retrieved the letter from the mail.
Seeing the handwriting
she grew instantly pale.
She'd not seen it for many years.
Seeing it again brought
back the tears.
Not one word that he had said
was lost in her,
inside her head.
Things were good for so long.
Remembering them again
seemed so wrong.
The letter sat on her desktop now.
Staring at it intently
she knew somehow
the letter was an attempt to rectify
blaming him alone
or even knowing why?
Two months passed and finally
she opened it. Her heart stood still.
For she did see
words of comfort, but words of woe.
'I'm sick my love
but before I go
I need to see you. Can you come?
I'm sorry my love.
What's done is done.'
He died while the letter
sat unread.
She kept the letter in her bed.

Overdraft In Overdrive
I got a letter this morning
My overdrafts in overdrive
They wanna know what Im gonna do about it
How Im proposing to survive
Stay alive stay alive oooh
They want the money
So I work and work and work ......
Theyre making me roast
The cheques in the post
You neednt worry worry worry....
You hit the roof when Im on the floor
Did I ever let you down before
I got a letter from my broker
He say he broker than me
My silver mine has tarnished over
Im on the road to tragedy
Help me, help me, oooooh
I need the money
So I work and work and work.....
Im deeper in debt, Im covered in sweat
You make me worry, worry, worry....
This nightmares giving me the shakes
Hope I wake and find its all a mistake
I started with nothing, and worked my way down
I know the things that I do, they mystify you
Its a strange way of living
But I like playing with fire
Im always walking the wire
And when the tightrope snaps
Youll see my world collapse
I got a letter this morning
Must be my lucky day
Seems Ive inherited a fortune
Rich uncle sam passed away, away, away, ooooh
Im in the money
No more work and work and work.....
My bankers aghast, Im dripping with cash
No need to worry, worry, worry.....
You need an angel to survive
An overdraft in overdrive

Four Letter Word
Written by ricky & marty wilde
I tell ya
Its hell yeah
When love says goodbye its a four letter word
Because your heart knows
When love goes
The feeling is bad - its the pits of the world
Its sad but true
When nothing you can do, can bring it back
Standing in the rain
She starts to cry
Is it all a game
She wonders why
Why it had to start
Why should it end, and take her apart
Because she shows it
She knows it
But what can she do, its a four letter word
Because it shakes you
It breaks you
And when its the end, its the worst thing you heard
Its over now
And nothing you can do can bring it back
Calling out his name
She starts to cry
Guys are all the same
She wants to die
Hide away the tears
No-one will see, and no-one must hear
But oh
How can the love that she has be profain
And how can something thats so beautiful
Just jeckyl and hyde around
Its so sad...
I tell ya
Its hell yeah
When love says goodbye
Its a four letter word
Because your heart knows
When love goes
The feeling is bad
Its the worst in the world
Its sad but true
When nothing you can do, can get it back
Standing in the rain
She starts to cry
Shouting out is name
Four letter words

Doubt Full
This letter explains everything
The content it is the truth
Each word could cut like daggers if I
Decide to finally give it to you
I've rewrote and rechecked a thousand times
Licked it shut and said my goodbyes
The lines are perfectly written
To break wide open this conclusion
And it feels like
I've already been there
Sounds like Im preaching the choir
If it feels like it wont work out
Im the one full of doubt
I know that time
Wont change a thing
If were all moving in slow motion
Its hard to catch up
When the world is weighing you down
And it feels like
I've already been here
Sounds like im preaching the choir
If it feels like it wont work out
Im the one full of doubt
Im confused
Dont know what I should do now
You could lose everything close to you
Tell me how does this feel
And it feels like
I've already been here
Sounds like im preaching the choir
If it looks like it wont work out
Im the one full of doubt x 3

You Dont Have To See
Verse1:
Spare me advise for a change
Just let me go my own way
I am the one in this thing
I know youre looking out
Checking me for last minute doubt
He makes me happy
When will you take my word
Chorus:
You dont have to want this to work
Its my life and a love deserved
Tearing him down, yeah its a sin
But you dont have to see
What I see in him
Verse2:
There is respect all around
Miracles in what we found
Surely you can understand
And when I come home to him
It just confirms again and again
That I dont have to explain
But to say that hes my man
Chorus:
And you dont have to want this to work
Its my life, its a love deserved
Tearing him down, yeah its a sin
But you dont have to see
What I see in him
Bridge:
Yes it would please me
If youd make it easy
And open up your mind
Chorus:
But you dont have to want this to work
Its my life and a love deserved
Tearing him down, yeah its a sin
But you dont have to see
What I see in him
You dont have to see
What I see in him
But you dont have to see
What I see in him

Now Life or death didn’t matter to me
I wrote a letter to her
Filled it with choicest words
Expressing
My love and desire for her
Full of hope
Kept waiting for days
Lost my peace, lost my sleep
Waiting for the postman
To bring a message from her
My heart pained
Anxiety increased
I did not hear from her
I didn’t know what to do
Kept praying to god
One day the postman came
The address was not correct he said
Returned the letter back to me
I decided to give my life away
Ran towards the river bridge
To jump into the river beneath
There I saw somebody jumped
Before I could
A letter was lying on the ground
I picked the letter
Read it with a heavy heart
To learn it was written by her
She ended her life
Waiting to hear from me
She could not contact me
As I had changed my house
I became a living, dead
Now Life or death
Didn’t matter to me

Down Boys
You were tryin to be cute
And it didnt work out
You were tryin to be charming
And it didnt come off
You were tryin to be clever
A big waste of time
You were tryin to get rough
But youre waiting in line
You cant make it with the down boys
They dont hear a word you say
You cant make it with the down boys
Uh just stay out of their way
You were trying to be sharp
But they couldnt wait
You were trying to be eternal
But uh that didnt rate
You were tryin to be smooth
Youre rough on the edges
You were tryin to be, hysterical
And I still aint laughin
You cant make it with the down boys
Uh they dont hear a word you say
You cant make it with the down boys
Just stay out of their way
You were tryin to be in
But they left you out [yelp? ]
You were tryin to be in
Two different worlds
You were tryin to be in
Oscillation in shame
You were tryin to be in
But youre lost in the game
You cant make it with the down boys
They dont hear a word you say
You cant make it with the down boys
Uh just stay out of their way
Stay out of their way
Out of their way
You cant make it with the down boys
Uh they dont hear a word you say
You cant make it with the down boys
Just stay out of their way

A Four-letter Word
His name is Gus
and boy can he cuss.
He knows every four-letter word.
When he gets mad
just like his dad
profanities are all he ever heard.
His voice gets real loud
in the midst of a crowd
and each time it occurred
People would stare
and he didn't even care.
His sensitivity is not even stirred.
Until one day
he hears his son say
four-letter words he has heard.
It shocks him yo hear
these words very clear
from a 4-year old which is absurd.
And so on this day
he vows never to say
another four-letter word.
