Take This Town
Living in a rabbit tunnel,
Keep the doggie in her kennel,
Mustnt let her see the world.
Oh, no!
Dont treat her like that.
Oh, no!
Dont treat her like that.
Living under mum and daddy,
Carry hope just like a caddie,
Mustnt let them see youre killed.
Shout it clear for all to hear,
You wont shoot this bird down.
Shout it clear for all to hear,
Were going to take this town.
Turn a deaf ear to the orders,
Keep them as your perfect daughters,
Mustnt let them know their minds.
Turning on to only music,
Breaking from their childhood attic,
Mustnt let them open the blinds.
Its time she stopped being your ornament,
Its time she put that in the past for permanent.
You cant hold her if she wants to roam around,
You cant hold her dream and keep it gagged and bound.
Were going,
Were going to,
Were going to take,
Were going to take this,
Were going to take this,

Dont Let Go
(jack hues / nick feldman)
I got your letter
I felt so scared to
Pick up the paper knife and read within
I read the contents
I got what you meant
I know its hard for you but dont give in
Maybe, maybe slow things go fast
Maybe, maybe its all in the past
Chorus:
Oh oh if you need me dont let go - oh
(you know Ill never give up on you)
Oh oh if you need me dont let go - oh
(you know I wont give up on you)
Oo oo - oo oo oo - oo
You know Ill never give up on you
I phoned the station
For information
To try and get the times of trains to york
And on the platform
I saw your hatform
A kind of halo in the crowd - crush talk
But baby baby dont run away
Maybe, maybe its just today
Repeat chorus
I saw your sad face
You dropped your suitcase
And I appreciate the state youre in
You mustnt hurry
You mustnt worry
I know its hard on you but dont give in
Maybe, maybe slow things go fast
Maybe, maybe its all in the past
Repeat chorus

Dont Lose Your Temper
Dont lose your temper
Dont lose your temper
Dont lose your temper
cos I love you when youre wild
Dont lose your temper
Dont lose your temper
Dont lose your temper
cos Id hate you to grow mild
Since you took that job with a company
Youve changed so much you just wont recognise me
They have you dressed up like a secretary
You mustnt change the things that make you what you are
Since youve been listening to that linguaphone
Youre speaking in a voice that is not your own
Im not sure if its you when I call home
You mustnt change the things that make you what you are
Whatever happened to my fighting, biting, lightning lioness
Little girl, little girl, little girl, little girl
I think I preferred it when your hair was in a mess
Brittle girl, brittle girl
Theyre not your real curls
Dont lose it
Dont lose it
Dont lose it
Dont lose it

Just Walk Away
I know I never loved this way before
And no one else has loved me more
With you Ive laughed and cried
I have lived and died
What I wouldnt do just to be with you
I know I must forget you and go on
I cant hold back my tears too long
Though life wont be the same
Ive got to take the blame
And find the strenght I need to let you go
Just walk away
Just say goodbye
Dont turn around now you may see me cry
I mustnt fall apart
Or show my broken heart
Or the love I feel for you
So walk away
And close the door
And let my life be as it was before
And Ill never never know
Just how I let you go
But theres nothing left to say
Just walk away
Therell never be a moment Ill regret
Ive loved you since the day we met
For all the love you gave
And all the love we made
I know Ive got to find the strenght to say
Just walk away
Just say goodbye
Dont turn around now you may see me cry
I mustnt fall apart
Or show my broken heart
Or the love I feel for you
So walk away
And close the door
And let my life be as it was before
And Ill never never know
Just how I let you go
But theres nothing left to say
Just walk away

Living Aint No Crime
(m&l - weikath)
Come hither to this place and let your mind fly free
For thats the only way how everyone should be
We all need something that we can keep on livin for
No one needs to tell us what were doin anymore
Head on, head on steady - until the end of time
Living, living ready - for livin aint no crime
So tell me, arent we all just one holding the flame
Against al the babbits in this world who build up frames
Some time or tomorrow we will prove them traitors wrong
So make your dreams come true for it mustnt take too long
Head on, head on steady - until the end of time
Living, living ready - for livin aint no crime
Now whats the use of livin here and whats it worth
Dont ask but throw away your fear this earth
You are here to live dont think youre here to understand
Dont forget youre no one without someones helping hand
Head on, head on steady - until the end of time

Shout It Out Loud
Well, the nights begun and you want some fun
Do you think youre gonna find it (think youre gonna find it)
You got to treat yourself like number one
Do you need to be reminded (need to be reminded)
It doesnt matter what you do or say
Just forget the things that youve been told
We cant do it any other way
Everybodys got to rock and roll, whoo, oh, oh
Shout it, shout it, shout it out loud
Shout it, shout it, shout it out loud
If you dont feel good, theres a way you could
Dont sit there broken hearted (sit there broken hearted)
Call all your friends in the neighborhood
And get the party started (get the party started)
Dont let em tell you that theres too much noise
Theyre too old to really understand
Youll still get rowdy with the girls and boys
cause its time for you to take a stand, yeah, yeah
Shout it, shout it, shout it out loud
Shout it, shout it, shout it out loud
Shout it, shout it, shout it out loud
Youve got to have a party
Shout it, shout it, shout it out loud
Turn it up louder
Shout it, shout it, shout it out loud
Everybody shout it now
Shout it, shout it, shout it out loud
Oh yeah
Shout it, shout it, shout it out loud
Hear it gettin louder
Shout it, shout it, shout it out loud

Get Thee Behind Me Satan
Get thee behind me, satan
I want to resist
But the moon is low and I cant say no
Get thee behind me
Get thee behind me, satan
I mustnt be kissed
But the moon is low and I may let go
Get thee behind me
Someone Im mad about
Is waiting in the night for me
Someone that I mustnt see
Satan, get thee behind me
He promised to wait
But I wont appear and he may come here
Satan, hes at my gate
Get thee behind me
Stay where you are

Dont Try Too Hard
Words and music by queen
If youre searching out for something
Dont try so hard
If youre feeling kinda nothing
Dont try so hard
When your problems seem like mountains
You feel the need to find some answers
You can leave it for another day
Dont try so hard
But if you fall and take a tumble it wont be far
If you fail you mustnt grumble
Thank your lucky stars
Just savour every mouthful
And treasure every moment
When the storms are raging round you
Stay right where you are
Oh dont try so hard
Oh dont take it all to heart
Its only fools they make these rules
Dont try so hard
One day youll be a sergeant major
Oh youll be so proud
Screaming out your bloody orders
Hey but not too loud
Polish all your shiny buttons
Dress as lamb instead of mutton
But you never had to try to stand out from the crowd
Oh what a beautiful world
This is the life for me
Oh what a beautiful world
Its the simple life for me
Oh dont try so hard
Oh dont take it all to heart
Its only fools - they make these rules
Dont try so hard
Dont try so hard

Dont Hold Your Breath
One day Ill get home before the sun hits the blinds
And give you - Ill give you something to remember me by
Thats the way I am
Its what I got in mind but I dont know if I can
You gotta shoot your gun - dont expect me to dance
Hold me up to the spotlight but
Dont, dont hold your breath
Dont hold your breath
Dont hold your breath
Dont hold your breath
These empty pockets are my deepest friends
Full of nothing but good intentions
Thats the way it is
It may not be much but I can blow you a kiss
Ive been wrong - Ive been wrong once before
Ill be all right tomorrow but
Dont, dont hold your breath
Dont hold your breath
Dont hold your breath
Dont hold your breath
I may be lazy or a living wreck
I wont be swayed by your expectations
Thats the way it is
It may not be much but you know what to kiss
Ive been wrong - Ive been wrong once before
Ill be all right tomorrow but
Dont, dont hold your breath

Talking To The Universe
Hey, yoko!
Imagine a grapefruit and squeeze it on me.
Ah!
You say mustnt do this and that,
You say cant do this and that
While youre losing your pants in a bullet-proof car,
Losing your hair in a downtown bar.
Oh, forget it, just forget it,
Its the curse, youre my curse, it could be worse.
Im just talking to the universe,
Im just talking to the universe,
Im just talking to the universe,
Im just talking to the universe,
Ooh - listen!
You say mustnt have this and that,
You say cant have this and that
While youre losing your apple and squeezing our balls,
Losing your mind and crawling up the walls.
Oh, forget it, just forget it,
Its the curse, youre my curse, it could be worse.
Im just talking to the universe,
Im just talking to the universe,
Ooh -
Im just talking to the universe,
Im just talking to the universe,
Ooh - listen!
Ooh -
Oh yeah, do you wanna touch me, oh yeah
Do you wanna break your mind, boy?
?
Youre a dildo, Im a whore,
Im a barbie, youre a hore.
Living in a glass house, having fun,
Lying in a glass house watching the sun.
Forget it, just forget it,
Its the curse, you are my curse, it could be worse.
Im just talking to the universe,
Im just talking to the universe,
Im just talking to the universe,
Im just talking to the universe,

Chant
We cant turn back the clock
But we can chant for love
Lets cut the idle talk so we can
Chant for love
We always have the time to quarrel
About such problems as money and war
Lets put it off until tomorrow
Who needs another dose of sorrow?
It dont necessitate an act of faith
To chant for love
What alibi is strong enough to wait
To chant for love
Though we dont hold the reigns of power
Somebody else seems to be in control
We mustnt waste another hour
Well get directly to the soul
If we can
Chant
For a world united
Chant
For a world thats dying for love
The hare krishna plays a drum and bell
When he chants for love
The tribal priest is afraid of hell
So he chants for love
I am not pushing some religion
Dont get me wrong,
I never mess with such things
Just be true to your own vision
This is your personal decision
The dervish spins to a hu hu hu
When he chants for love
Nobody knows what the angels do
When they chant for love
Youre at the bottom of the ladder
Someone may try to tell you where you should start
But the words, they never matter
If you can feel it in your heart
Then you can
Why dont you chant?
You can chant
Chant, chant, chant ...

Jumbo said to say goodnight, see you in the morning
Please dont lose your appetite, he knows who is yawning
Tomorrow you can climb a mountain
Sail a sailboat through a fountain
Jumbo said to say goodnight, hes a friend of yours
Play no games hed say to me when the light is gone
He is right hed say to me, we know who is wrong
So please dont make no hesitation
There will be no recreation
Jumbo said to say goodnight, hes a friend of yours
Listen, you can chew it if its loud enough you hear it
cos its narrow as a sparrow and it shoots a bow and arrow
Thro a top thats made with powder with a gun its even louder
And its shattering to hear you mustnt listen with your ear
But it gets to you
Yes, yes, yes, it gets to you
Yes, yes, yes, you
Yes, yes, yes, you
Yes, yes, yes, you
Yes, yes, yes

Hold On Hold Out
Hold on hold out, keep a hold on strong
The moneys in and the bets are down
You wont hold out long
They say youll fall in no time at all
But you know theyre wrong
Known it all along
Hold on hold out, keep a hold on still
If you dont see what your love is worth
No one ever will
Youve done your time on the bottom line
And it aint no thrill
Theres got to be something more
Keep a hold on still
You know what it is youre waiting for
Now you just hold on
Hold on hold out, hold on
Give up your heart and you lose your way
Trusting another to feel that way
Give up your heart and you find yourself
Living for something in somebody else
Sometimes you wonder what happens to love
Sometimes the touch of a friend is enough
Hold a place for the human race
Keep it open wide
Give it time to fall or climb
But let the time decide
Sometimes you wonder whats in this for you
But you wait, and you see
cause its all you can do
Just to hold on
Hold on hold out, hold on
For the countless souls beaten by their goals
Keep a hold on now
And the ones betrayed by the deals they made
Keep a hold on
If you hold your ground itll turn around
Keep a hold somehow
Hold on hold out, keep a hold on tight
Tonights the night
Wake up and turn on the light
You fight, and youre right--
Its gonna take all your might...
Youre a hold out
Well Im a hold out too
But it took me all this time to figure out
Something you already knew
Will love be true? can it pull you through?
How long? how strong?
Somethings depend on you
See-- I always figured I was going to meet somebody here
And I dont know why
Why should love come down and suddenly just sweep me away
I want to fly
But there are so many things in my way
Anyway...
I guess you wouldnt know unless I told you
But...
I love you
Well just look at yourself--
What else would I do?
Hold on--

Please help me, im falling
In love with you
Close the door to temptation
Dont let me walk through
Turn away from me, darling
Im begging you to
Please help me, im falling
In love with you
I belong to another
Whose arms have grown cold
But i promised forever
To have and to hold
I can never be free, dear
But when im with you
I know that im losing
The will to be true
Please help me, im falling
And that would be sin
Close the door to temptation
Dont let me walk in

Hard Luck Stories
Dont tell me hard luck stories
And I wont tell you mine
Dont tell me hard luck stories
And I wont tell you mine.
Every time youre feelin fine
Got another good one on the line
It slips away,
You feel it slip away, slip away.
I dont want no more from you
Wont do what you want me to
Turn me loose
Come on turn me loose, turn me loose.
Every time Im feelin good
The phone rings and I knock on wood
Hoping that it wont be you
Calling like you always do.
All you ever seem to say is
How much bad luck came your way
You wont try to start again
You just count on your old friends.
Dont tell me hard luck stories
And I wont tell you mine
Dont tell me hard luck stories
And I wont tell you mine.
Now you call up every day
Got no money no place to stay
That girl made a mess of you
You got what was comin too.
Build her up and let her down
Tastin everythin in town
Treat her right, you never
Treat her right, treat her right.
Now shes gone and youre alone
Bite your fingers to the bone
Slip away,
You feel it slip away, slip away.
You dont know whats goin on
How you lost it, what went wrong
What ever happened to
The love that you once knew.
Dont tell me hard luck stories
And I wont tell you mine
Dont tell me hard luck stories
And I wont tell you mine.

World In Perfect Harmony
Written by ricki & kim wilde
Lets think of the good things
Instead of all the bad
We mustnt give into
A world thats going mad
So hold on, we can survive
Weve got to keep the spirit
Of destiny alive
Just say that we can if we try
Like the rivers need the mountains
Just like the flowers need the rain
Pleasure need the pain
However far away it seems
Im dreaming for a world
In perfect armony
And weve got to face it
Theres nowhere left to hide
(but we need) a determination
To change the wrong to right
The futures a baby born
Looking for us for strength
To keep it from harm
You know well succeed if we try
Like the rivers need the mountains
Just like flowers need the rain
Pleasure need the pain
How ever far away it seems
Im dreaming for a world
In perfect harmony
Dont let your dreams escape
The futures ours to shape

Maybe Im on rocky mountain time
But I dont know whats up with you
We could fake it out, say hey
Never mind
But someday livin loose will
Get to you
And you say baby please, im
Cryin tears
Will I hear it deep inside of me
Maybe youll decide youre
Outta here
Anything can happen, anything
Can be
This time
You cant walk away
Gotta have you say
Make it clear
This time
Gonna face your fears
Share your tears
For love my dear
Sad attacks
Rollem off my back
I dont know babe how to be so blue
I can lose my mind
I can do hard time
But it scares me if Im outta sync
With you
Im going to extremes
To show a gentle man
You know Im not as hard
As you believe
Try for you, and cry for you
Never call me heartless, when I try
The hardest
This time
You cant walk away
Gotta have you say
Make it clear
This time
Gonna face your fears
Share your tears
For love my dear
This time
I wont turn away
>from the love thats here
The love I needed
This time
I wont let you down
I wont play around
I swear my dear
Aint no doubt
People live in fear
Turn away, no see no hear
Sayin I dont know
What happened officer
I wanna be the perfect witness
Baby do we care to see it?
Show some heart
Maybe come a time
When love will come apart
Were living here
I will make it clear
Silence is a lie
To tell the truth Im tryin

Oh carol, dont let him
Steal your heart away.
Well Ive got to learn to dance
If it takes me all night and day.
Well come into my machine
So we can move on out.
I know a jumping little joint
Where we can jump and shout.
Its not too far back on the highway
Not too long a ride.
You take your car along
And you park it outside.
A little cutie takes your hat
And you can thank her, maam,
cos every time youre gonna drive,
You find the joint is jammed.
Oh carol, dont let him
Steal your heart away.
Well Ive got to learn to dance
If it takes me all night and day. auw.
Well if you want to hear some music
Like the boys all play,
Hold tight, tap your foot,
Dont let it carry you away.
Dont let the heat overcome you
cos they play so loud
While the music will treat you
When they get a crowd.
Well you can dance
I know you will, you thought.
I got my eyes on you baby,
cos you dance so good.
Dont let him
Steal your heart away.
Ive got to learn to dance
If it takes me all night and day.
Well Ive got to learn to dance
If it takes you all night and day.
