Stop, Look And Listen
I was walking down the street
just the other day
I caught a glimpse
of life vivid reality
I saw a man on the street
had no clothes or shoes
these are signs of the times
that's what they say
Everybody better
stop look and listen
stop look and listen
stop look and listen
to your heart
The prophets of the times
are written on the street car walls
can't you seem them crying
can't you hear them call
Mother mother children still
got to grow
father father where do we go
Stop look and listen
stop look and listen
stop look and listen
to your heart
Space age assures us life will
go on
and everybody trying to believe
forget the future
think about right now
somehow seem to be the growing
theme
Prophets of the times
are written on the street car walls
can't you seem them crying
can't you hear them calling
Mother mother children still have
to grow
father father where do we go
Repeat chorus
Space age assures us life will
go on
and everybody trying to believe
forget the future
think about right now
Repeat chorus
Space age assures us life will
go on
and everybody trying to believe
forget the future
think about right now
Repeat chorus
Forget the future

One Thing Leads To Another
intro:
one thing leads to another
you've been trapped, been caught
who's gonna stop?
who's gonna stop?
one thing leads to another
verse 1:
so there have always been
the men to be right
you can give them any job
they can do three things at one time
but if you give'em your heart
it's from then they screw up
is you're asking for the truth
well it's safer just to give up
it seems like forever
that i've been trapped, been caught
i'm calling stop 'cos
chorus 1:
one thing leads to another
before you know it
you're in too deep
till you finally discover
you got no more secrets to keep 'cos
little by little
step by step
you're gonna see how far you can get
listen to the words of your mother
one thing leads to another
verse 2:
you're so obvious,
but you play it so cool
you must think i'm out of my mind
but i know just what you're up to
'cos they day i give up
is the day that you'll drop
and it's better you know
they day i leave you won't be letting go
you'll feel it forever
'cos you've been trapped been caught
who's callin'stop? 'cos
repeat chorus 1
bridge:
it's always been what's done
little hope for it to change
but with us it's left undone
and it's always the same
we fall for the ones that
hold us in their games
chorus 2:
one thing leads to another
before you know it
you've been trapped, been caught
who's gonna stop?
who's gonna stop?
with the secrets to keep 'cos
little by little
step by step
you're gonna see how far you can get
listen to the words of your mother
one thing leads to another

Father Sun
Strange imaginations, children hide your secrets well
Is it not temptation makes you kiss and makes you tell?
Theres a traveller on the airwaves and hes pleading for my heart
Light up all the candles, Im still in the dark
Hurry operator, get redemption on the line
Pull back the curtains, I think I recognize those eyes
If love is so criminal, then my penance due
cause Im still holdin on to letters written straight to you
(chorus)
Oh, wont you save me, father sun, father sun?
I need to tell you father sun, father sun
And now you know that youre the only one
Oh, please forgive me father sun, father sun
I said I needed you in the back of my mind
Laid the beads up on the table, right besides the wine
It seems that we say forever, but forevers just a word
And I well be coming back for you, is all I heard
(repeat chorus)
Please dont forget me, father sun, father sun
I think I hear him whispering
Put your hand in mine and you wont feel a thing!
(repeat chorus)
Oh, wont you save me father sun, father sun?
I need to tell you that my life is on the run
And now you know that youre the only one
Oh, wont you save me father sun, father sun?
Oh, wont you save me father sun, father sun?
Oh, wont you save me, save me, save me, save me, save me, father sun?

(l. stansfield/i. devaney/a. morris)
(chorus 1)
The world is going mad
All the sadness that we have is driving us insane
We all listen to ourselves, never no one else
This is why we feel the pain

Dont look back on life
Only look forward to find the answer
Forget your trouble in your strife
And sing...

Killing The Blues
Leaves were falling ..just like embers
In colors red and gold they set us on fire
Burning just like a moonbeam ..in our eyes
Chorus:
Somebody said they saw me
Swinging the world by the tail
Bouncing over a white cloud.
Killing the blues
I am guilty of something
I hope you never do because there is nothing
Sadder than losing .. yourself in love
Repeat chorus:
Repeat chorus:
Now, you ask me just to leave you
To go out on my own and get what I need to
You want me to find ..what Ive already had

Just set your sight high, look

And make a big big big noise.

Shooting Star
Sometimes I feel you are cheating me
Then you kiss me and my mind is free
But then I think I should let you know that
I've got friends - so baby listen to me....
Chorus:
A shooting star will shoot you and Mars will go to war
The man in the moon will jump on you if you don't love me no more....
I saw you in someone else's car
You told me that - he won't go too far
That may be so but you let him know that
I've got friends, so baby listen to me....
Chorus:
You tell me then I'm the man for you
But you do things you should never do
So now, hear this warning once again, yes,
I've got friends, so baby listen to me....
Chorus:
If you don't stop making me lose face
I will have you put up there in space
So, just do what I'm a-telling you, 'cos
I've got friends, baby listen to me....

Attention (feat. Raphael Saadiq)
[Verse 1:]
I know that life has felt us many cards,
Sometimes I swear he's trying to make it hard, and i don't want to have to hide me faults.
But he got busy and let down the gaurds.
[Chorus repeat 1x:]
I need attention, from you, it's just the little things we do, pay attention it's on you,
Cause i can't help it i just like it when you do, yeah.

I don't wanna nag and start a fight.
But sometimes you forget and i get tired.
If he was out of sight and out of mind.
So dawlin listen and just make it right.

You make my heart monsoon baby, and we could make life through baby,
So take my hand and we'll glide the way.

Terminate
Drop!
All that is dead around me
Lifeless in the wake of catastrophe
Burning in my mind I am not deceived
Judgement into my own mortality
[Chorus:]
Now that the soul is free
I servered ties of man and machine
Now that the soul is free
I bled my heart of all it can bleed
Lighting the spark, igniting the fuse
Destroyed the lies and saw absolute truth
From out of darkness and into the light
The future is wide open and is on my side
[Repeat chorus]
You can't stop it
You can't kill it
And it won't stop coming
Until you're dead

Close Another Door
Many years have passed, it seems,
And I am all alone.
Ive sent the children far away
To some obscure unknown.
(chorus)
Its so sad,
So sad.
Close another door.
Listen to my eyes.
Close another door.
Youre much too old to work,
So wont you run away?
I was young, I used to say
That age wont bother me.
The life I had was very sad,
It all went out to sea
(repeat chorus)
Though the sun is in outside,
The rain is in my hair.
Now my life is lived inside,
My home is in my chair.
(repeat chorus)
(slower...repeat...fade)
Let me go.
Send me flowers and
Put me on a plane.
Ive paid before,
So Ive been told
At least Im alive

Mother & Father (Peter's Re-Invention Mix)
There was a time I was happy in my life
There was a time I believed I'd live forever
There was a time that I prayed to Jesus Christ
There was a time I had a mother
It was nice
Nobody else would ever take the place of you
Nobody else could do the things that you could do
No one else I guess could hurt me like you did
I didn't understand, I was just a kid
[Bridge:]
Oh mother, why aren't you here with me
No one else saw the things that you could see
I'm trying hard to dry my tears
Yes father, you know I'm not so free
[Chorus:]
I've got to give it up
Find someone to love me
I've got to let it go
Find someone that I can care for
I've got to give it up
Find someone to love me
I've got to let it go
Find someone that I can care for
There was a time I was happy in my life
There was a time I believed I'd live forever
There was a time that I prayed to Jesus Christ
There was a time I had a mother
It was nice
[bridge]
[chorus]
My mother died when I was five
And all I did was sit and cry
I cried and cried and cried all day
Until the neighbors went away
They couldn't take my loneliness
I couldn't take their phoniness
My father had to go to work
I used to think he was a jerk
I didn't know his heart was broken
And not another word was spoken
He became a shadow of
The father I was dreaming of
I made a vow that I would never need
Another person ever
Turned my heart into a cage
A victim of a kind of rage
I gotta give it up
[repeat twice]
[chorus]
Find someone that I can care for
Find someone that I can care for
I've got to give it up
[repeat five times]
I've got to let it go
I've got to give it up
Oh mother, oh father
I've got to give it up
I gotta give it up

Keeping The Love Alive
(richard supa)
Both of us holding back
So afraid
To fall in love and lose again
Weve both been hurt before
Saw love walk out the door
In the end...
Actin as cold as ice
When we wanna be
Its just a foolish game we play
You couldnt hurt me bad enough
To make me give it up
And walk away
(chorus)
We cant stop
The feelings to strong
Weve got the will to hang on
Cant stop
We struggle and fight to survive
Keepin the love alive
We try to forget the past
So many times
Its hard to make those memories leave
With all we have at steak
Well bend until we break
cause we both believe
(repeat chorus)
If we stand the test of time
Love will be the lasting kind

Dont Stop For No-one
Dont stop for no-one
And then it goes on
(repeat 3 times)
One day my father said to me
its time for you to leave,
But dont wait for me, its pre-destiny
Dont wait around for someone to believe in
You know, history dont stop for no-one
Just like moses waiting on the mountain
You know, history dont stop for no-one
Dont hang around in the babylonian gardens
You know, history dont stop for no-one
(? ) tourist attraction
You know, history dont stop for no-one
Dont stop for no-one
And then it goes on
(repeat)
Sometimes I told I must confess
To a life of tenderness
But I just repeat what he said to me:
dont close your eyes because seeing is believing
You know, history dont stop for no-one
(? ) child, fighting for a meaning
You know, history dont stop for no-one
Dont dream too long, its time to awake now
You know, history dont stop for no-one
Like sleeping lucy waiting for a kiss now
You know, history dont stop for no-one
I think you know the way its gonna go now
You know, history dont stop for no-one
From aztech kings to new york queens
And then it goes on

In a place far away from here

I Need You
(Julie Miller)
I need something like morphine only better
I need something like a kiss that lasts forever
I need something like money that will not burn
I need something and I need more, more than I can earn
Chorus: I need something, what can I do?
Hey, I need something, I need you
I need something like a cure for my soul
I need something like amnesia, for things I know
I need something like a mother, 'cause I'm just a child
I need something like an asylum, 'cause I go wild
(repeat Chorus)
I need something like dynamite for the mess I'm in
I need something like a tattoo underneath my skin
I need something more than a lover in my bed
I need somebody here with me, here with me in my head
(repeat Chorus)
I need something bad and I need it now
I got something wrong with me, you can see
I think you better fix it 'cause I don't know how
Hey, I need something, what can I do
Hey, I need something, I need you
I need something, what can I do
Hey, I need something, I need you

Breaking Out
Standing in the valley of indecision
Trying to make some sense out of
A strange condition that we see
Ive gotta find a way out cause
Nobody would listen
So I turn my back and now im
On my way
Chorus:
Breaking out...Im on my way
Breaking out...
Breaking out...Im on my way
Breaking out...
I hear the things thy tell me but
I dont believe it...
Gotta find a place where I can
Breathe and just be me...
Gonna shake up the world
Into a new position
Now Im letting you know that
I am on my way...
Repeat chorus
I cant stop this feeling deep
Inside of me
Now I finally see the reason
Why...
In my heart I know its not
Some fantasy...
When I lift my eyes up to the
Sky...
Solo
Its a brand new day, but it
Seems like an old one
People playing games, but its
No game I want to play
They tried to hand me the dice
But I knw they were loaded
So I turned my back and now
Im on my way

Our Children
A baby sitter who can’t stand kids
A drunken father slaps his children around
A drug addict mother who sleeps and does nothing but get high
A sister who never comes home in time to protect the small ones
Our children are here on this earth to be loved
Not to be abused and used as slaves
Our children are not punching bags or our slaves
Stop the abuse against the innocent children
These children will grow up to be just like you
Our children need us to love them
The older siblings stand between the you and the younger ones
So stop all the abuse
The children need to be taken care of
All you parents out there listen to me
Heed my warning because your children will grow up to hate you
Stop all the abuse against the future of this world

Time Won't Pass Me By
Blue skies for today
Don't need no more lonely nights
All the black & blues have made me
Yeah, they made me see the light
Down and out but always dreaming
Gonna dream the love to grow
Chorus:
I think the sun was in my eyes
This time the time won't pass me by
Lucky on the second try
This time the time won't pass me by
Feel so lucky baby
Just to have another try
When love comes callin' tears stop falling, hey
I believe I know the reason why
Tho' I gave your love away
You brought it back and doin' that has made me see
Chorus: (repeat)
Just the past I can't replace
Don't you know I see the future in your face
Can it be the bad times were what it took to see
The love we had was true for you
And good for me
