Cracks In The Pavement
(words and music: duran duran)
I shed my skin
When the party was about to begin
I'm light years away but
I'm walking back, tonight,
Of all nights
When i should be feeling just right
Don't want to be in public,
My head is full of chopstick i don't like it.
Something on my mind..
Breaking open doors i sealed up before,
Something on my mind..
Makes me run when i thought i'd run too far.
Somebody shaking my tree
Maybe that somebody is me
I'm standing in the light but i'm making a break for
The shadows on the cinema wall.
They should be mine but i'm not that tall
Now i'm saying this in private
If i had a car,
I'd drive it insane
(chorus) (chorus)
I'm looking for cracks in the pavement...

New Moon On Monday
(words and music duran duran)
Shake up the picture the lizard mixture
With your dance on the eventide
You got me coming up with answers
All of which I deny.
I said it again but could I please re-phrase it
Maybe I can catch a ride
I couldnt really put it much plainer
But Ill wait till you decide
Send me your warning siren
As if I could ever hide
Last time la luna,
I light my torch and wave it for the...
New moon on monday
And a firedance through the night
I stayed the cold day with a lonely satellite
(chorus)
Breaking away with the beast of both worlds
A smile that you cant disguise
Every minute I keep finding
Clues that you leave behind.
Save me from these reminders
As if Id forget tonight
This time la luna,
I light my torch and wave it for the...

I Take The Dice
(words and music duran duran)
Midnight, I think Im gonna make it
Feel the magical lash of the roll and the crash in their lives..
Headline, in tomorrows papers,
Kill that light its so bright
And youre shining it right in my eyes.
Show me your secret and tell me your name
Catch me with your fizzy smile
Try to remember again and again,
What it is that I recognise -
Dont ask me now
When I need you I dont know how
To believe in your advice,
Just this once I take the dice.
Midnight, so whats the point of faking
For a kiss or a whisper you pull out a desperate prize..
Hold tight, onto daddys bracelet
Make them pay for their chances,
With money they dont think thats nice
(chorus)

The Chauffeur
(words and music: duran duran)
Out on the tar plains, the glides are moving
All looking for a new place to drive
You sit beside me so newly charming
Sweating dewdrops glisten freshing your side
And the sun drips down bedding heavy behind
The front of your dress - all shadowy lined
And the droning engine throbs in time
With your beating heart
Way down the lane away, living for another day
The aphids swarm up in the drifting haze
Swim seagull in the sky towards that hollow western isle
My envied lady holds you fast in her gaze
(chorus) (chorus)
Sing blue silver
And watching lovers part, I feel you smiling
What glass splinters lie so deep in your mind
To tear out from your eyes, with a thought to stiffen brooding lies
And Ill only watch you leave me further behind
(chorus) (chorus)
Sing blue silver
Sing, sing.. blue silver
(theres more to this kind of camouflage)
(more than just colour and shape)
(whos going now, in to a classiomatic? )

Meet Me In The Back
CHORUS:
Meet me in the back
Don't make me wait too long
I could change my mind
And tell you that it's wrong
So meet me in the back
Where the light don't shine
First show me yours
Maybe I'll show you mine
My hands are shaking
My heart is beating fast
Is love worth making
When it can never last
(CHORUS)
I'm gonna give directions
I'm gonna take it slow
But if I don't get protection
I will just say no
(CHORUS)
I can hear the music
Pounding through the walls
And to the beat of dancing
I will give you all
(CHORUS)

Wish That He was Mine
vs.1 His pretty green eyes, his curly brown hair,
his attractiveness makes it so hard not to stare
At his gorgeous smile, and his angel-like face.
Don't know what I'd do without him - I'd probably go insane.
(chorus)
He makes me go crazy, this sensation goin' through me is amazing,
And I love the way he makes me feel like I'm dancin' in the air
That's full of butterflies, I just wish that he was mine.
vs.2 His soothing voice, his personality,
his really strong charisma makes me see
This feeling that I get, like my head is in the clouds.
I need to be with him, but I don't know how.
(chorus)
(instrumental)
vs.3/Bridge: Sometimes I wish i was right there with him.
Holdin' me forever, and 'til the very end.
Though that's not gonna happen anytime near,
I will always love him, and I wish that he was here, 'cause
(chorus)
I said
(chorus) x 2
Whoah-
Wish that he was mine!

Two Doors Down
Chorus:
Two doors down
Theyre laughing and drinkin, and having a party
Two doors down
Theyre not aware that Im around
Cause here I am
Crying my heart out, feelin sorry while
Theyre having a party two doors down
I think Ill dry these useless tears
And get myself together
I think Ill wonder down the hall
And have a look around
cause I cant stay inside
This lonely room and cry forever
I think I really rather join em
Two door down, yeah
Repeat chorus
cause here I am
No longer cryin an feelin sorry
Were having a party just two doors down
I cant believe Im standin here
Dry-eyed, all smiles and talkin
Making conversation with the new love I have found
I ask him if hed like to be alone and we start walkin
Down the hall to my place waitin two doors down, yeah
Repeat chorus
cause here I am
Feelin everything but sorry
Were having our own party two doors down
Oh, oh, oh, oh
Two doors down
Oh, oh, oh, oh
Two doors down
Oh, oh, oh, oh
Two doors down
Oh, oh, oh, oh
Two doors down, oh
Repeat chorus
cause here we am
Feelin everything but sorry

Two doors down, yeah

Candyman
Chorus
And even though Im right behind you
Shadows haunt and taunt your hand
I cannot be your everything
But Ill be your candyman
You move a sudden grace, a child upon the earth
You wanted love to find you but you found it first
Chorus
We look through antiques on a fuzzy, fuzzy day
But you always know just what you want
Want right away
Chorus
And though you cry at night
Its to be expected
But know youre mine tonight
So when the sun has died you dive into your mind
But your soul is never lost until the deal is signed

The Thought Police
(d. pickerill/p. odonoughue)
Chorus:
Thought police
They will put you under
The thought police
They will take you in
The thought police
They will clean your mind out
The thought police
You can never win
You can never win
You can never, never, never, never, never win
There are people around with problems
Those who live in fear
Running from the shadows
Waiting for another year
Thought of the secrets
Secrets of the mind
Thoughts can spell out danger
To the leaders of the time
Chorus
Thoughts are fleeting glimpses
Of the future or the past
They lock ideas in a bottle
Its time to break the glass
Hiding out in the daytime
Crawling through the night
Keeping out of danger
Just trying to find the light
Chorus

We Run
We run
Moving up, look ahead
Can't see the end
Dead ahead, all is set
No way we'll bend
Pre-Chorus:
It's one for all we stand or fall
'Till our time has come
It's all for one we're on the run
It's only just begun
Chorus:
We run
'Till the last fight is said and done
We run
Through the long night of what's to come
Standing up, take a breath
Have a look around
No clues, no signs
We won't be found

Oh we're feeling stronger
Nothing stands in our way

Know
I know one thing
In millions of time…
I don't know you
but I miss you
Like you're mine
Chorus
But I know nothing if not love,
walking unknowingly from place to place
I know nothing if not love
when you're within ten miles
End chorus
I know two things
In millions of time…
You're not here
And I don't know you
but I miss you
Like you're mine
Chorus
I know nothing if not love
Raised on an angel's wings
End chorus
I know three things
In millions of time…
You're always in the back of my mind, but
You're not here
And I don't know you
but I miss you
Like you're mine
Chorus
I know nothing if not love
Throughout the years of my life
I know nothing if not love
I don't know you
but I miss you
Like you're mine
I know nothing if not love
When you're talking to me
End chorus
And I know that I don't know you
but I
Love you
Like you're mine
I know, I know
Know
I know, I know

Traffic Light
I was guessing what it feels like
To have a girl that wants me
Say exactly what she feels like
So that I could see
[Chorus:]
This traffic light I'm stopped at
Tells me when to go
With all of these mixed signals
I am feeling overthrown
You say you want to take a rest
Just a little break
That would be okay with me
If my heart wasn't at the stake
[Chorus]
How will I ever conquer this mountain
Without you with me by my side
How will I ever find the right time
To pull you close and make you mine
[Chorus]
You wanted me to be flawless
Your knight in shining armor
My suits a little dirty
And this disease I can't cure

Lovesick
Saw you two the other day
And I would say that she looks great
You all make the cutest two
I guess I should be glad for you
The thought of you just makes me sick
Its been two weeks and thats too quick
I cant say that Im doin fine
Cuz Im bout to lose my mind
And I dont know what Ill do so
Chorus
Youre sad for me too bad for you
That Im so lonely and confused
Ive gotta take it out on you
Cuz you left me for some chick
Now Im lovesick baby
Saw myself on rikki lake
Overweight and full of hate
Some asshole left me in distress
I used to look down on all that mess
Seems like everything just changed
Once I gave my love to you you went away
Since you are the one to blame
You better figure out how to get it back baby
Chorus
Before I met you I didnt think
That youd ever do a thing
To take away my independence baby
Before I met you I was straight
Now Im bout to go insane
I saw you and I think about you baby

Drowning Man
(duran duran)
Hes sinking faster than a drowning man
Hell grab a hold of anyone he can
Gun in his poket and a heart of ham
Uncle sam...
Hes dying faster than a rabid dog
Infect us all now hes losing blood
Nose for trouble and a soul of rock
Smokeys man...
Dont drag me down
I dont wanna drown
Your going down
(hay) na na na na na na na na
Theres not much flesh
Just skin and bone
Cheeks sunk deep
Eyes popping wide
Dont put out a hand to help him
This drowning man will bite it right off
Right off , right off , right off..

Hes selling faster than a magazine
Infect us all with his tv screen
Hes selling faster than a magazine
Infect us all with his tv screen
Hes selling faster than a magazine
Infect us all with his tv screen

Peaches And Cream
The light was on, and everything I felt was strong
I watched as your mascara ran
Didn't get far on that golden tan
I heard you sigh, but I don't wanna see you cry
You looked just like a walking dream
Sweeter than peaches and cream
[Chorus:]
If you want me let me know
I can show you how
If you've got nowhere to go
I can show you now
I'm yours to tame, and I don't even know your name
I like to touch your perfect skin
I can't stop once I begin
To show you more than I have ever shown before
If you could read what's on my mind
Give me yours and I'll give you mine
[Chorus]
We could be, we could see
More than we know
We should be, we should see
More than we know
And I'd like to know

Sweeter than peaches and cream (If you want me let me know)
Sweeter than peaches and cream (I can show you how)

I saw your face
Elegant and tired
Cut up from the chase
Still I so admired
Bloodshot your smile
Delicate and wild
Give me she wolf style
Rip right thru me

Silveretta the jets of a lifetime
Go and get her ive got her on my mind
Nothing better then feeling is so fine
Simply put I saw love stream flow

Come on baby 'cause cause there's no name for
Give it up and I got what I came for

Dying to get high
Two of a kind
Beat all hands tonight
