Cant Take It With You
Lead vocal: dean ford
Well I sympathise completely but theres nothing I can do
I am just a humble servant with a message here for you
Well I know you have good reasons and theres things youve got to do
But the boatman wont be waiting and hes leaving here with you
And you cant take it with you
No matter what you do
No you cant take it with you
Not the place youre going to
(one more mile, one more road, one last bridge, one less load)
Well I sympathise completely but theres nothing I can do
I am just obeying orders, Im a simple soul like you
Well you really are persuasive, but Ive heard it all before
And the boatmans getting restless as he stands upon the shore
And you cant take it with you
No matter what you do
No you cant take it with you
Not the place youre going to
Cant take it with you

Take The Money & Run
Stuart elliot vocal
Ask yourself a question now theres a multiple choice
Youve only one shot, get it right, says a distance voice
Dont get your head into a spin
If only you could see the mess youre in
The enemy is closing in see the white of his eye
Hes taking in his prey in sight its just a matter of time
May the games begin the best man win
If only you could see the mess youre in
Is it the pride in you that wont let go
Is it the fool that wont let it show
Free yourself
If only you could see yourself
If you could see yourself
And when the heavens opened up and the walls come tumbling down
You know there is the only place to go
And when youve had enough of fighting
And every mean trick under the sun
But still you fear the worst is yet to come
Take the money and run
Countthe bottles one by one as the fall to the ground
Search your mind your heart your soul until the answer is found
But watch your step the ice is thin
If only you could see the mess youre in
The man in black looks down on you the insignificant one
To be or not if all so true the deal is almost done
It matters not youre lost to him
If only you could see the mess youre in
Is it the pride in you that wont let go
Is it the fool that wont let it show?
Free yourself
If only you could see yourself
If you could see yourself
And when the heavens opened up and the walls come tumbling down
You know it is the only place to go
And when youve had enough of fighting
And every mean trick under the sun
But still you fear the worst is yet to come
Take the money and run

Step By Step
Well, theres a bridge and theres a river
That I still must cross
As Im going on my journey
Oh, I might be lost
And theres a road I have to follow
A place I have to go
But no one told me just how to get there
But when I get there Ill know
cause Im taking it...
Step by step
Bit by bit
Stone by stone
Brick by brick
Step by step
Day by day
Mile by mile
Go your own way
And this old road is rough and ruin
So many dangers along the way
So many burdens might fall upon me
So many troubles I have to face
But I wont let my spirit fail me
But I wont let my spirit go
Until I get to my destination
Im gonna take it slow
Because Im taking it...
Chorus
Say baby, dont give up
Youve got to hold on to what youve got
Oh, baby, dont give up
Youve go to keep on moving
Dont stop
Yeah, yeah
I know youre hurting
I know youre blue
I know youre hurting
But dont let the bad things get to you
Im taking it...

It Dont Matter
Now in your big flash motor and your wild reputation
Youre ready to hit the streets
Winking at the boys, yeah heading for the noise
Got the world at your feet
If leaving me for dead with a pistol at my head
Is your idea of how Id feel
Well let me tell you honey fore you spend all of your money
I got my hands firmly on the wheel
It dont matter
It dont matter
It dont matter to me
It dont matter
It dont matter
It dont matter to me
Back street lover in the cold of the evening
Takes you to a place he knows
Says, it will be fine better make up your mind
Youve cut it deep and now it shows
Its way past midnight and your traveling through the city
Youre wondering what you should do
Well baby cant you see that youve had enough of me
And Ive certainly had enough of you
It doesnt matter
It doesnt matter
It doesnt matter

Get Your Act Together
You say youre so tired, youre never satisfied
But I cant seem to make you understand
I see your point of view, but lifes been to good to you
Just stand up and face things like a man
You better get your act together
If you ever wanna take it on the road
You cant sit around
Or the bad times are gonna get to you
And youre never gonna see it through
I know, that things dont seem so good right now
But you gotta move along some how
Try to do the best you can
Sure nuff, thins will slowly turnaround
You wont always be so down
I know that its true
It wont always be such stormy weather
It may be a cliche but the sun is gonna shine
So you cant sit around
Or the bad times are gonna get to you
And youre never gonna see it through
It dont matter where youve been
Its where youre going to
Yeah, and it wont do you no good
Just livin in the past
You know you cant sit around
cos the bad times are gonna get to you
And youre never gonna see it through
And theyre never ever gonna go
Yeah, theyll be here to stay
Yeah, its always gonna be that way

Sixteen
Youve been a juvenile
With a dolphin smile
With no elbow room
Youve had in your little backyard
Portected by big walls
You didnt dare look over
cause youve been too small
Now youre finally sixteen
And youre feelin old
But they wont believe
That you got a soul
cause youre only sixteen
And youre feeling real
But you cant seem to cup a feel
Why do they have to force us
Through this metamorphose
Little butterfly
No matter how you try
Youll be segregated
Youre gonna be closed off
Youre callow and youre green
cause youre caught between
Youre only sixteen
Try to cross the line
But your little wings are interwined
Youre only sixteen
And youre such a tease
And theres nothing you can do
That can really please
These children
Theyre not really bad most of them
Theyre just products
Of rotten neighborhoods
And bad family situations
You know you cant forsake it
So sit back and take it
You see youre just not ripe
So dont try and fight that
Youre only sixteen
You wanna catch a peek
But they look at you
Like youre such a freak
Well youre only sixteen
With a lot to say
But they wont give you
The time of day
Youre only sixteen!
Youre only sixteen!!
Youre just sixteen!!!
You poor little thing

Since Youve Been Gone
J. spinks
Since youve been gone
Theres something I wanna say
Since youve been gone
Theres no one taking your place
Since youve been gone
Ive just been foolin around
Since youve been gone
This worlds been turned upside down
Didnt think Id find a girl that I could not forget
Anything we started not so long ago - aint over yet
Since youve been gone
Staring at your photograph
And I know it wont be long
An I know youre coming back
You turned me on
Since the first time I set eyes on you
You turned me on
Ooh the things you want me to do
Dont get me wrong
cos youre not the only girl Ive ever had
But since youve been gone
Girl you know the thought of yous driving me mad
All I do is think of you I lie awake - lie awake
And no matter how I try this loneliness - you know I cant take
Since youve been gone
Staring at your photograph
And I know it wont be long
An I know youre coming back
Since youve been gone
Theres something I wanna say
Since youve been gone
Theres no one to stand in my way
Since youve been gone
So scared of losing this time
Since youve been gone
Girl you know that I cant get you out of my mind
Since youve been gone
Staring at your photograph
And I know that I was wrong
An I know youre coming back
Since youve been gone
Tried my best to read between the lines
If some things are hard to say
You better tell me one more time
Since youve been gone
Since youve been gone

Grateful When Youre Dead
Im painting, I paint a picture in youre mind
If youre driving roads to suicide, I know you can sympathise
If youre love is a cheatin, and youre blinded by the pain
Youre honeymoon in summer is a picnic in the rain...
Youll be grateful when youre dead, grateful when youre dead
Ba, ba, ba, ba, ba, ba, ba, ba, ba, ba, ba, ba.
Im shaking, I shake the spear before youre eyes
Well if you know youre history, you will read between lines
If youre waiting for a vision, to illuminate youre mind
To leave this world of misery, to leave it all behind
Youll be grateful when youre dead, grateful when youre dead
Ba, ba, ba, ba, ba, ba, ba, ba, ba, ba, ba, ba.

Think For Yourself
Ive got a word or two
To say about the things that you do
Youre telling all those lies
About the good things that
We can have if we close our eyes
Do what you want to do
And go where youre going to
Think for yourself
cause I wont be there with you
I left you far behind
The ruins of the life that you have in mind
And though you still cant see
I know your minds made up
Youre gonna cause more misery
Do what you want to do
And go where youre going to
Think for yourself
cause I wont be there with you
Although your minds opaque
Try thinking more if just for your own sake
The future still looks good
And youve got time to rectify
All the things that you should
Do what you want to do
And go where youre going to
Think for yourself
cause I wont be there with you
Do what you want to do
And go where youre going to
Think for yourself
cause I wont be there with you
Think for yourself
cause I wont be there with you

Fool For Love
Have you heard the sound of disappointment
It tears at you
Why didnt I realise that I could be conned by you
Taken for a fool
But as the light go down
Theres no one left around
What will you do
Now youve hurt me
I wont let you stay
No matter what you say to me now
I wont let you stay
No matter what you say to me now
Hear what Im saying its not what Im thinking
My head is like a chain of thoughts
Twisted in vain
When will you ever learn
That its always the hard way
Now that were through
Ive nothing left to prove
To convince you
To convince you

No matter what you say to me now
I wont let you stay
No matter what you say to me now
I wont let you stay
No matter what you say to me now
You never cared what happened

Fool for love
Those rumours were true I was your fool
I wont let you stay
No matter what you say to me now

Everbody Gets The Blues
It dont matter if youre rich
It dont make no difference if youre poor
Simple things in life can make you mad to the core
It doesnt matter if youre young
Dont make no difference if youre old
You got to stand a little rain
Before you reach a pot of gold
Chorus:
Everybody gets the blues
Everybody got to cry
Take the good with the bad
Take the lows and the high
Well you work and you worry
Spend you life paying dues
Everybody has a hard time sometime
Everybody gets the blues
Aint no different for a woman
Than it is for a man
Everybody goes dancing
Everybody pays the band
Everybody got to take
Everybody got to give
Everybody got to live
[repeat chorus]
Dont matter if youre fat
Dont matter if youre thin
Everybody got to lose
Everybody got to win
Dont matter if youre black
Dont matter if youre white
You know you got to get it wrong
To have a chance to make it right

If I Never See You Again
The morning light comes stealing
To start a new day
Out there the world is waiting
To take us far away
And its time to make
The final break
But the memory will linger forever
If I never see you again
And think of me now and then
Though it hurts so sweetly
They say all good things come to an end
Youve changed my life completely
Im touched by your love
Even if I never see you again
The night is so unforgiving, yeah
And Im on my own
I realise what Im missing
And now that youve gone
So I say a prayer
Are you out there
Are you feeling what Im feeling now, yeah
If I never see you again
And think of me now and then
Though it hurts so deeply
They say all good things come to an end
Youve changed my life completely
Im touched by your love
Even if I never see you
If I never see you again
And if I never see you again
No one can tell you how the story ends
Where the road will lead
When love begins, yeah
Youve changed my life completely
Im touched by your love
Even if I never see you
If I never see you
Even if I never see you again
And if I never see you
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah

Harmless
Youre comfortable as the poison dunce,
Completely oblivious
This might come as a big surprise
But since youve been sterilized
You wont bite back
Youve always been cut too much slack
And now youre primed
To have a great time
Milk-fed full of boldfaces lies
Canned and homogenized
Perpetuated by the myth
Impassiveness equals intelligence
But youre a star
Just like any accomplished liar
You can make it at last
Never let a good lie pass

That Dont Impress Me Much
Ive known a few guys who thought they were pretty smart
But youve got being right down to an art
You think youre a genius--you drive me up the wall
Youre a regular original, a know-it-all
Bridge:
Oh-oo-oh, you think youre special
Oh-oo-oh, you think youre something else
Okay, so youre a rocket scientist
That dont impress me much
So you got the brain but have you got the touch
Dont get me wrong, yeah I think youre alright
But that wont keep me warm in the middle of the night
That dont impress me much
I never knew a guy who carried a mirror in his pocket
And a comb up his sleeve--just in case
And all that extra hold gel in your hair oughtta lock it
cause heaven forbid it should fall outta place

Okay, so youre brad pitt
That dont impress me much
So you got the looks but have you got the touch
Dont get me wrong, yeah I think youre alright
But that wont keep me warm in the middle of the night
That dont impress me much
Youre one of those guys who likes to shine his machine
You make me take off my shoes before you let me get in
I cant believe you kiss your car good night
Cmon baby tell me--you must be jokin, right!
(bridge)
Okay, so youve got a car
That dont impress me much
So you got the moves but have you got the touch
Dont get me wrong, yeah I think youre alright
But that wont keep me warm in the middle of the night
That dont impress me much
You think youre cool but have you got the touch
Dont get me wrong, yeah I think youre alright
But that wont keep me warm on the long, cold, lonely night
That dont impress me much
Okay, so what do you think youre elvis or something...
Whatever

Last Boat Leaving
Hush my little one dont cry so
You know your daddys bound to go
They took his pride
They took his voice
Dont upset him now, dont make a noise
They said youre lucky son youve still got a choice
Last boat leaving
Dont waste your tears
Its not as if Im in chains
I dont want to go now, it would be better for
You, too, if I dont look back when we sail
Hush my dear, while I whisper it in your ear
Were not going to sail tonight
Were going to disappear
And it feels like a punishment, but I dont know what for
Take care of your mother, son, its you that she adores
cos no matter how long we sail well never reach the shore
Last boat leaving
So dry your tears
Its not as if Im in chains
When you go to school, son, youll read my story in history books
Only they wont mention my name
So hush now, my darling, my sweet little one
I hope that you never have to do what Ive done
Do you know what Ive done?
Why Im going away? on the last boat leaving this stinking town
Its the last boat leaving, its the last boat leaving
Youve had my innocence, youve had my heartbreak
Youve taken the place where I once belonged
Now what more can you take?

The Shoes Youre Wearing
Weve all seen enough wrong and right
To know everythings not black and white
Theres always something in between
No matter how long or well you live
You dont get anything you dont give
Still no slate is clean
For better or worse, anybody can
Take a look around and find a better man
Upright no matter how hes faring
No matter what kind of shoes hes wearing
The shoes hes wearing
They dont make the man
So many people out running around
Handicapped before they hit the ground
Thinking theres nowhere to go
Shouldnt we all be looking for ways
To keep on seeing our better days
Were not chained to what we know
But if your eyes are open and your mind is free
Theres no tellin what a man can be
Upright no matter how youre faring
No matter what kind of shoes youre wearing
The shoes youre wearing
They dont make the man
But if you cant walk through the best of times and the worst of times
Find your feet still walking the line
Youll never carry the load worth bearing
No matter what kind of shoes youre wearing
The shoes youre wearing
They wont make the man
The shoes youre wearing
They wont make the man
