Paint A Vulgar Picture

At the record company meeting
On their hands - a dead star
And oh, the plans they weave
And oh, the sickening greed
At the record company party
On their hands - a dead star
The sycophantic slags all say :
I knew him first, and I knew him well
Re-issue ! re-package ! re-package !
Re-evaluate the songs
Double-pack with a photograph
Extra track (and a tacky badge)
A-list, playlist
Please them , please them !
Please them !
(sadly, this was your life)
But you could have said no
If youd wanted to
You could have said no
If youd wanted to
Bpi, mtv, bbc
Please them ! please them !
(sadly this was your life)
But you could have said no
If youd wanted to
You could have walked away
...couldnt you ?
I touched you at the soundcheck
You had no real way of knowing
In my heart I begged take me with you ...
I dont care where youre going...
But to you I was faceless
I was fawning, I was boring
Just a child from those ugly new houses
Who could never begin to know
Who could never really know
Oh ...
Best of ! most of !
Satiate the need
Slip them into different sleeves !
Buy both, and feel deceived
Climber - new entry, re-entry
World tour ! (media whore)
Please the press in belgium !
(this was your life...)
And when it fails to recoup ?
Well, maybe :
You just havent earned it yet, baby
I walked a pace behind you at the soundcheck
Youre just the same as I am
What makes most people feel happy
Leads us headlong into harm
So, in my bedroom in those ugly new houses
I danced my legs down to the knees
But me and my true love
Will never meet again ...
At the record company meeting
On their hands - at last ! - a dead star !
But they can never taint you in my eyes
No, they can never touch you now
No, they cannot hurt you, my darling
They cannot touch you now
But me and my true love
Will never meet again

The Rick Springfield Song

(the szuters)
Took all this time
I never thought it would be like this
I guess the best is best forgotten
Now and then I come back to that dream
Where if I set you free
Youd come back to me
And say that its not all for nothing
All I wanted was one hit record
All I wanted was a chance to be a star
All I wanted was a happy ending
Dont want to hear about the money youre making
Dont want to hear about the young girl shaking
All I wanted was a happy ending...
Somewhere
Well, my good friends talk about
The things theyve done
And look around where I am now
Lately in bed
With this worry in my head
Sometimes wish that I were dead
Just like robin saunders said
All I wanted was one hit record
All I wanted was a chance to be a star
All I wanted was a happy ending
Dont want to hear about the money youre making
Dont want to hear about the young girl shaking
All I wanted was a happy ending...
Somewhere
Somewhere down the line
All I wanted was one hit record
All I wanted was a chance to be a star
All I wanted was a happy ending
Dont want to hear about the money youre making
Dont want to hear about the young girl shaking
All I wanted was a happy ending...
Somewhere
Somewhere down the line...oh yeah
Somewhere down the line
Oh yeah
Somewhere
Somewhere
Yeah
Somewhere
Somewhere
Somewhere

The Company You Keep

Yes, youre known by the company you keep
You say youre doin nothing wrong
I dont believe you are
Im only trying to help you sis
Before you go too far
Cause I think youre an angel
But folks think that youre cheap
Cause youre known by the company you keep
Please listen to your big sister
I feel I know whats best for you
I feel that I must warn you sis
Thats the least that I could do
Im not accusing you of anything
I know its fun you see
But youre known by the company you keep
The company you keep keeps you out too long
Mom and dad dont go to sleep until you get home
Sis, youre gettin in too deep
Youd better look before you leave
Cause youre known by the company you keep
Sis, youre gettin in too deep
The road of life is steep
And youre known by the company you keep

Bury Me Deep Inside Your Heart

Let me wake up in your arms
Hear you say its not alright
Let me be self dead and gone
So far away from life
Close my eyes
Hold me tight
And bury me deep inside your heart
All I ever wanted was you, my love
You...all I ever wanted is you, my love
Yourre all I ever wanted, just you
Let me never see the sun
And never see you smile
Let us be so dead and so gone
So far away from life
Just close my eyes
Hold me tight
And bury me deep inside your heart
All I ever wanted was you, my love
You...all I ever wanted is you, my love
Youre all I ever wanted, you, oh my love
Youre all I ever wanted, you, my love

Since You Walked Into My Life

Time after time
Everything that Ive tried
Cant do nothing at all
Everywhere I walk, nowhere to turn
I was losing my way
Crying every day
I was givin up and you walked into my life
I never knew anything about love
In the world that I know
Lovers come and go
Nobody anywhere, talk like you do
Saying dreams can come true
Then you made me feel just like a man should feel
Chorus:
Ever since you walked into my life
All at once, I feel so strong inside
Anything you ask of me
Ill do it faithfully
Since you walked into my life (into my life)
Yeah, girl
Youre the only one for me
Oh, girl
Oh baby (oh baby)
Now Ive got a reason to live
And oh darling
How I love the sweet love you give (oh baby)
And I wanna spend my life with you
Wanna make your dreams come true
Every step you take I wanna be with you
Chorus
I am learning that the touch of love is magic
Feel it once, and you will see your world so differently
Nothing stays the way that it was
Everything begins again
Youre not who youve always been
Chorus
Ever since you came into my life
I wanna be with you, girl
Since you walked into
Since you walked into my life
Girl, nothings ever felt
Nothings ever felt so right
Baby, I wanna be with you
Since you walked into
Since you walked into my life
I wanna be with you
Repeat and fade

Dont You Ever Go Away

Hey, can you tell my heart is aching
You, its only you thats on my mind
I, I can not fight this feeling
Now, now I know why love is blind
From the top of my world to the bottom of my heart
Just the way that you are, youre the one my shining star
Everything that you do, everything that you might say
Youre the love of my life, dont you ever go away
Love, I feel my heart could beat forever
Kiss, when its slow with tenderness
Touch, when were making love its heaven
Time, girl with you, theres only bliss
From the top of my world to the bottom of my heart
Just the way that you are, youre the one my shining star
Everything that you do, everything that you might say
Youre the love of my life, dont you ever go away
Dont you ever go away
You are everything I wanted
And I would love to love you girl
To the end of time
From the top of my world to the bottom of my heart
Just the way that you are, youre the one my shining star
Everything that you do, everything that you might say
Youre the love of my life, dont you ever go away

Forgive Her Anything

(written by elvis costello, transcribed by craig ciccone w/ bolans corrections)
Oh, a tv went off like three day old milk
That shook this town down better than most
And it always was less of idea and more of a boast
Oh, youre burning in the bloom of life
til youre powder in the grave
Or youre pounding in the counter beggin for more
til you evaporate
Youd forgive her anything
If you look like you, my pretty miss
I wonder where you are tonight
And this place becomes pityless
Oh, I couldnt sleep, but I cant complain
Oh, this wont hurt a bit, oh, this wont hurt again
When the roof comes down and the walls move in
Oh, he didnt know it could feel like that
And your face turned away and the day turned black
And the rain fell like a curtain
Oh, its my turn to begin
To forgive her anything
Youd forgive her anything
If you knew what I know
Youd forgive her anything
So where did all my pride go?
Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh
Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh
Oh, oh, oh, oh, youd forgive her anything
If you knew what I know
Youd forgive her anything
So where did all my pride go?

Every Single Thing

Verse 1:
I cant understand how I took it for granted
Your love when I had it meant the world to me
But I never told you guess I thought it would show through
Should have known youd grow teary from me
So before you leave give me a chance
Ill get down on my knees to win you back
Chorus:
Like a river flowing into the sea
You touch me so deep
Like the sun up in the sweet summer sky
Its your love that shines in my life
So if you dont know what you mean to me
Cant you see youve got me down on my knees
Youre my heaven and earth and every single thing in between
Oh, yeah
Verse 2:
Took me a while but Im done with denial
I swear now its final youre the one for me
I just want to hold you be the one you feel close to
Nothing I wont do to give you all that you need (all that you need)
Cause if you should go slip through my hands
Then dont you know you take all I have
Chorus:
Like a river flowing into the sea
You touch me so deep
Like the sun up in the sweet summer sky
Its your love that shines in my life
So if you dont know what you mean to me
Cant you see youve got me down on my knees
Youre my heaven and earth and every single thing in between
Bridge:
You gotta listen to me (youre my heaven)
Im begging you please (youre my heaven)
Baby cant you see you mean everything
Cause if you should go slip through my hands
Oh, then dont you know you take all I have, all I have
Oh, yeah
Chorus:
Like a river flowing into the sea
You touch me so deep
Like the sun up in the sweet summer sky
Its your love that shines in my life
So if you dont know what you mean to me (if you dont know what you mean)
Cant you see youve got me down on my knees (down on my knees)
Youre my heaven and earth and every single thing in between
Youre my heaven, heaven
Youre my heaven, heaven
Youre my heaven and every single thing in between

Was It Something I Didnt Say

Spending another night alone,
Wondering when will I ever see you again.
Thinking what I would give
To get you back baby.
I should have told you how I felt then
Instead I kept it to myself.
I let my love go unexpressed,
till it was too late,
You walked away.
Chorus:
Was it something I didnt say,
When I didnt say I love you.
Was it words that you never heard,
All those words I should have told you.
All those times,
All those nights,
When I had the chance to.
Was it something I didnt say,
Was it something I didnt say.
Always assumed that youd be there,
Couldnt foresee the day youd ever be leaving me.
How could I let my world
Slip through my hands baby.
I took for granted that you knew,
Oh love, the love I had for you.
I guess, you never had a clue,
till it was too late,
You walked away.
Chorus
All the words were in my heart,
Well, they went unspoken.
But baby now my silent heart,
It is a heart thats broken.
I shouldve said so many things,
I shouldve let you know,
Youre the one I needed near me,
But I never let you hear me.
Chorus

Subtle Invitation

See its hard to tell somebody
That youre still somewhat
Attached to the dream
Of being in love once again
When its clear theyve moved
So I sat down and wrote these few words
On the off chance youd hear
And if you happen to be somewhere listening
You should know Im still here
If you really need me
Baby just reach out and touch me
You dont ever have to be
Downhearted again
If she hurts you or misleads you
Baby all you ever need to do
Is call me and let love rush in
What can I say, I had a little extra time
So I figured I might as well explain
A couple little things to you
That you probably never knew
Like youll always be an intrinsic part of me
Even though life goes on
If you really need me
Baby just reach out and touch me
You dont ever have to be
Downhearted again
If she hurts you or misleads you
Baby all you ever need to do
Is call me and let love rush in
And in my love will flow
Like the waves to the shore
You can fall into me
Once again effortlessly
And Ill comfort you so
Your heart wont hurt anymore
Im waiting patiently
If you really need me
Baby just reach out and touch me
You dont ever have to be
Downhearted again
If she hurts you or misleads you
Baby all you ever need to do
(if she hurts you or misleads you) is call me and let love rush in
(you can just call me baby)
If you really need me (if you really need me baby)
Baby just reach out and touch me(reach reach baby)
(reach, baby)
You dont ever have to be
(dont ever hesitate to call me)
Downhearted again
If she hurts you or misleads you(if she hurts you)
(shes a dam fool)
Baby all you ever need to do
Is call me and let love rush in
(all you gotta do is call me boy, I got you)
If you really need me (yeah:.)
Baby just reach out and touch me
(if youre listening to me baby)
You dont ever have to be (like you used to)
Downhearted again
(before I even knew you)
If she hurts you or misleads you
(then you know Im singing to you)
Baby all you ever need to do
(so I just wanted you to know)
Is call me and let love rush in
(that anytime you need a friend)
If you really need me (Im here)
Baby just reach out and touch me
(you can still believe
You dont ever have to be in fairy tales)
Downhearted again (yours and mine)
If she hurts you or misleads you
(so if by chance you take a listen)
Baby all you ever need to do
(Im quite sure you know is call me and let love rush
In that this ones for you)
(cause Im giving my all)

Do Right To Me Baby

Dont wanna judge nobody, dont wanna be judged,
Dont wanna touch nobody, dont wanna be touched.
Dont wanna hurt nobody, dont wanna be hurt,
Dont wanna treat nobody like they was dirt.
But if you do right to me, baby,
Ill do right to you, too.
Ya got to do unto others
Like youd have them, like youd have them, do unto you.
Dont wanna shoot nobody, dont wanna be shot,
Dont wanna buy nobody, dont wanna be bought.
Dont wanna bury nobody, dont wanna be buried,
Dont wanna marry nobody if theyre already married.
But if you do right to me, baby,
Ill do right to you, too.
Ya got to do unto others
Like youd have them, like youd have them, do unto you.
Dont wanna burn nobody, dont wanna be burned,
Dont wanna learn from nobody what I gotta unlearn.
Dont wanna cheat nobody, dont wanna be cheated,
Dont wanna defeat nobody if they already been defeated.
But if you do right to me, baby,
Ill do right to you, too.
Ya got to do unto others
Like youd have them, like youd have them, do unto you.
Dont wanna wink at nobody, dont wanna be winked at,
Dont wanna be used by nobody for a doormat.
Dont wanna confuse nobody, dont wanna be confused,
Dont wanna amuse nobody, dont wanna be amused.
But if you do right to me, baby,
Ill do right to you, too.
Ya got to do unto others
Like youd have them, like youd have them, do unto you.
Dont wanna betray nobody, dont wanna be betrayed,
Dont wanna play with nobody, dont wanna be waylaid.
Dont wanna miss nobody, dont wanna be missed,
Dont put my faith in nobody, not even a scientist.
But if you do right to me, baby,
Ill do right to you, too.
Ya got to do unto others
Like youd have them, like youd have them, do unto you.

Blood Money

(myles goodwyn)
Published by northern goody two tunes, ltd./capac - ascap
No one can say, that crime doesnt pay, that never is true
Its supply and demand, with blood on your hands, nighmares come true
Its in all the headlines, youre the worst of a kind, a sinister breed
Such a contemptable way, to have your own say, youre poisoned with greed
I said oh no (no no no no), youre completely insane
I said oh no (no no no no no), youd take a life for material gain
Blood money, you got blood on your hands
Blood money, but still you make your demands
Blood money, you cant get any colder
Blood money, but still youre thinkin it over
You dont have to be smart, it dont take any heart, least of all, shame
Some turret stunt, open in the front, your motive is plain
And for those that contend, with the choice to condemn, I know that you care
For those left alone, when its time to go home, and nobodys there
I said oh no (no no no no), youre completely insane
I said oh no (no no no no no), youd take a life for material gain
Blood money, you got blood on your hands
Blood money, but still you make your demands
Blood money, you cant get any colder
Blood money, but still youre thinkin it over
When youre out on the street, and you got nothin to eat, its easy to see
That you do what you can, still I dont understand, how wrong you can be
Though its all very clear, that you bargain with fear, theres no justice at all
Its easy for some, they say the bigger they come, the harder they fall
I said oh no (no no no no), youre completely insane
I said oh no (no no no no), youd take a life for material gain
Blood money, you got blood on your hands
Blood money, but still you make your demands
Blood money, you cant get any colder
Blood money, but still youre thinkin it over

Still

Still
Verse:
When I sleep
I have dreams about the way we used to kiss
About the way you used to hold me
And say nothin would ever harm me
When we first met
Oh how you charmed me
Made me smile when I was down
Big pimpin around the town
You and me
Whenever theyd see you
Theyd see me
A lover and a friend to me you were
How did it end
How it hurts
To not have you in my life
When I wont even be alright
Bridge:
You never know what you have
Till its gone
Treated you wrong
For so long
Now youre gone away
But the love still is here
Chorus:
Still...
I still got love for you
Still...
After what we been through
Still...
I gave my heart to you
And baby youre the only one
Theres never men like you
Still...
That can come close to you
Still..
Once I said I love you
I knew youd be the only one
Verse 2:
A good man you were to me
Always there to care
Would do anything in this world for me
Didnt matter, what, when, or where
You were there
I never thought wed part from the arguments wed start
When I just wanted to get some attention
And Im sorry baby for bitchin
If I could take back the words
That I said to make you leave
Id be down on bended knees
Thats when youd take me
Forgive me
Bridge:
You never know what you have
Till its gone
Treated you wrong
For so long
Now youre gone away
But the love still is here
Chorus
Bridge 2:
All of the good times we had together (together)
Do they mean somethin to you
Do you ever wish we never split (never)
Still got love for you...
Chorus x2

I Think I Love You Too Much

Im not alone sitting right there
How come I get the feeling youd vanish into the air
I love you more than anybody else, babe
Cant you tell Im an easy touch.
Baby, baby, I think I love you too much
If I picked you up, oh youd slip right away
If I locked you up, youd find a way to make me pay.
Youre gonna hurt me more than anybody else babe
Cant you tell Im an easy touch
Baby, baby, I think I love you too much.
Bridge:
Guess Im gonna get you what you want
Cuz Im so into you
You dont even give an inch to me baby
Though Ive been giving you a mile or two

What Was It You Wanted?

What was it you wanted?
Tell me again so Ill know.
Whats happening in there,
Whats going on in your show.
What was it you wanted,
Could you say it again?
Ill be back in a minute
You can get it together by then.
What was it you wanted
You can tell me, Im back,
We can start it all over
Get it back on the track,
You got my attention,
Go ahead, speak.
What was it you wanted
When you were kissing my cheek?
Was there somebody looking
When you give me that kiss
Someone there in the shadows
Someone that I might have missed?
Is there something you needed,
Something I dont understand.
What was it you wanted,
Do I have it here in my hand?
Whatever you wanted
Slipped out of my mind,
Would you remind me again
If youd be so kind.
Has the record been breaking,
Did the needle just skip,
Is there somebody waitin,
Was there a slip of the lip?
What was it you wanted
I aint keepin score
Are you the same person
That was here before?
Is it something important?
Maybe not.
What was it you wanted?
Tell me again I forgot.
Whatever you wanted
What could it be
Did somebody tell you
That you could get it from me,
Is it something that comes natural
Is it easy to say,
Why do you want it,
Who are you anyway?
Is the scenery changing,
Am I getting it wrong,
Is the whole thing going backwards,
Are they playing our song?
Where were you when it started
Do you want it for free
What was it you wanted
Are you talking to me?

With First Steps Taken

In it from the beginning!
With first steps taken and a curiousness.
Yes,
In the beginning...
I felt was mine was what I touched.

And it seemed so real,
I could take...
What it was I touched.

In it from the beginning!
With first steps taken and a curiousness.
Yes,
It was the beginning,
That made me feel...
I could take whatever I touched.

And it seemed so real,
I could take,
What it was I touched.
And wanted much.

Like a toy I saw another child with it and had,
I wanted.
I wanted.

Like a car I saw drive away from my path,
I wanted.
I wanted.

Like a love between two people shared,
Who acted like they walked on air...
I wanted.
I wanted.

And it seemed so real,
I could take,
What it was I touched.
And wanted much.

If I saw somebody new and they were with someone else,
So what...
I just wanted.
To get up on it.

And it seemed so real to me,
I could take anything I wanted.
To flaunt and get up on it.

Like a love between two people shared,
Who acted like they walked on air...
I wanted.
Oh yes,
I wanted.

Because it seemed so real to me,
I could take anything I wanted.
To flaunt and get up on it.

Yes, it seemed a dream to me...
To feed whatever I wanted.

If Youd Ever Needed Someone

Stop right there and listen,
Before you say something you might regret
I know somethings missing
But I cant begin to accept what you said
Maybe, you can show me
Exactly where Im goin wrong
Cos lately Ive been thinking
Maybe Ive been round here too long
If youd ever needed someone in your life
Maybe then youd know
Why my heart just wants you to stay
But my head tells me lo let her go
If youd ever needed someone
One way or another
Whatever I do it seems you criticize
Is there any wonder
The hurt that I feel is so thinly disguised
I cant help but notice
Little things that tell me so much
Is it only a matter of time
Before Im missing your tender touch?
If youd ever needed someone in your life
Maybe then youd know
Why my heart just wants you to stay
But my head tells me to let her go
If youd ever needed someone
If youd put yourself in my place
You could never say whats gone is gone
If youd ever needed someone

No Rules

Say its alright
If you really love me
Its my life
And I really wanted you that night
Was about to break
So we had to just take a chance
Time is not to waste
We couldnt let it slide through our hands
When my heart called
You answered me
Baby, when I was falling
You were there for me
Theres no rules in love
Cant you see?
No rules in love
For you and me
No rules in love
Walking through the streets
The echo of our footsteps in time
In between the beats
Tell me that youll always be mine
So baby can I trust you
Like Im ready to?
Ive waited so long
And I never refused
Theres no rules in love
Cant you see?
No rules in love
For you and me
Theres no rules in love
Our hearts are free
No rules in love
For you and me
No rules in love
All my life, been living on the same dreams
Sometimes they seemed so real
All my love I held deep inside me
I wanted to feel
I wanted to feel
Baby, now I wonder
What youre doing tonight
I can see you laughing, boy
As I closed my eyes
Theres no rules in love
Cant you see?
No rules in love
For you and me
Theres no rules in love
Cant you see?
No rules in love
For you and me
Theres no rules in love
Cant you see?
No rules in love
For you and me

Million Miles Away

Written by ricki & kim wilde
A while ago you looked at me
And said thered come a time
Youd have to go away
You put it on the line
And told me we should only
Take each moment day by day
Well I know that theres a time in life
When people change
And go their separate ways
But I miss you, more each day
Youre a million miles away
But I feel you in my heart
Though it hurt to leave that way
Well we knew that from the start
Cos you never did pretend
Our love would never end
There is no way to love
No rules that we can follow
Nothing simple or defined
We make our own
And some we borrow
Hoping it wont end
But darling now we know
Weve got no-where left to go
Youre a million miles away
But I feel you in my heart
Through it hurt to leave that way
Well we knew that from the start
Cos you never did pretend
Our love would never end
Our love would never end
And if I travelled to the stars
Would I find out where you are
Touch the secret in your heart
And set it free
Or would you turn away
Cos I miss you more each day
Youre a million miles away
But I feel you in my heart
Through it hurt to leave that way
Well we knew that from the start
Cos you never did pretend
Our love would never end
Our love would never end

Id Rather Be You

1986. released as b-side of single throwing it all away, 1987.
Ooh yeah
You know I never wanted to be closer
And Ill still be here until its over
No, no I never wanted to be closer
But youll be back, I couldve told you
Well I always knew
Yes I could see it coming
Your ambitious streak
You always want things beyond your reach
Well now youve got what you wanted
And youre free to be the things
You always said youd be
Youre up there looking down
Tell me what do you see - oh
Cos you know
You know I never wanted to be closer
And Ill still be here until its over
No, no I never wanted to be closer
Yeah, but youll be back, I couldve told you
Well it seems to me
That youve got to fight for yourself
In this world we live in
Its dog-eat-dog and never give in
Why worry when youre holding the aces
Dont throw it away cos you know
Id rather be you than me
Up there looking down
Tell me what do you see - oh
Hey hey yeah
Ooh yeah
You know I never wanted to be closer (never wanted)
And Ill still be here til its over
No, no I never wanted to be closer (never wanted)
Ooh but youll be back, I couldve told you
Its been a long time coming
But at last we seem to be moving on, straight ahead
Were finally getting something done
Time flies and fore you know it
Youll be getting closer to where
You always knew youd be
Up there looking down
Tell me what do you see - oh
Cos you know
No, no I never wanted to be closer (never wanted)
Ill still be here until its over
No, you know I never wanted to be closer (never wanted)
Yeah but youll be back, I couldve told you
Hey hey yeah...

Elizabeth, I Love You

Written and composed by michael jackson
Welcome to hollywood
Thats what they told you
A child star in hollywood
Thats what they sold you
Grace with beauty, charme and talent
You would do what you were told
But they robbed you of childhood
Took your youth and sold it for gold
[chorus]
Elizabeth, I love you
Youre every star that shines in the world to me
Elizabeth cant you see that its true
Elizabeth, I love you
Youre more than just a star to me
Lovely elizabeth
You have surpassed them all
My friend elizabeth
Learned to outlast them all
Many started back when you did
Lost their way and now theyre gone
But look at you, a true survivor
Full of life and carrying on
This is your life
You seem to have it all
You reached your peak
They wanted you to fall
Its very sad, this world can be so bad
But though all the heartaches
When they put you down
You know you were the victor
And you earned the crown
Its like walking through the fire
Determinded to win
You were beating lifes battles
Again and again
Elizabeth, I love you
Youre every star that shines in the world to me
Elizabeth cant you see that its true
Remember the time I was alone
You stood by my side and said:
Lets be strong
You did all these tings
That only a true friend can do
Elizabeth, I love you
The world knows your work now
I pray one day Ill be just like... you.
