Clowntime Is Over No. 2
clowntime is over
Tears on your blackmail
Written to ransom
A point of the fingernail
Says that he's handsome
Clowntime is over
Time to take cover
While others just talk and talk
Somebody's watching where the others don't walk
Clowntime is over
A voice in the shadows
Says that his men know
He don't step back as expected
He's otherwise and unprotected
Chorus
Almost too good to be true
Who do you? why do you? what do you do?
While everybody's hiding under covers
Who's making lover's lane safe again for lovers?

Sidewalk Talk
Watch where you walk 'cause the sidewalks talk
And you can't keep a secret from the ground beneath you
Step very lightly on the earth below
Or before you know it everyone will know
Streets were paved with a thousand eyes
And try as you may you can't disguise
There's only two things that you can't hide from
That's you and the ground you're walking on
Chorus:
Watch where you walk, 'cause the sidewalks talk
You better watch what you do, what you do
'cause the sidewalk talk can get carried away
You better watch what you say, what you say
Think when you speak 'cause you gotta 'long the street
They can read what you say so you gotta stay away
From words that sting, words are not true
And the things you say make a fool of you
Little white lies make the sidewalk cry
And you can betray with the things you say
Words won't last when you say 'em too fast
And you've been mislead by the things you've said
(chorus)
Intermediate:
When you're living on the street
Life can be full of misery
Find a place to call your own
Make your heart into a home
You can do it, uh huh
(repeat 3 times)
You can do it
After every word there's a place that heard
Every time your shoe hits the avenue
And when you've gone they'll sing a song
Of the stories you told when you felt so bold
You better think twice when you cross the ice
Everything you do comes back to you
When you're shedding a tear sidewalks will hear
When your laughter's true they'll run with you
(chorus)
(intermediate)
You can do it, uh huh
(repeat 3 times)
You can do it
(repeat 3 times)

Push Comes To Shove
(chorus)
Can you be in love
When you live alone
Push comes to shove
When youre bitchin on
Now look at every

Said the music does the talkin
But all we heard is talk about
The girls are left behind
When forty women all spend time
With me and the boys
And the toys, yeah
Rose said she was fine for two
With blonde hair, by crack it
Miles of blue
Sooge, she was on my side
cause she and nancy
Ah they took me for a ride
The girls are left behind
When forty women all spend time
With me and the boys
And they do, yeah the toys

When mine was still comin on to you
But I was covered back, back then

The girls are left behind
When forty women all spend time
With me and the boys
And the toys in the attic
Her sister, she was lank a fin
Never tought Id given in
Her candle of youth was burnin low
But me and the boys
Knew something had to go
The girls are left behind
When forty women all spend time

Call It Even
I saw an open door and I looked inside it
But Id no idea
What you were hiding
So now Im holding the bag
And its heavy
And the conversation stopped
So much for friendly
And if I told you I was not very good
At making small talk when I should
But you have one advantage over me
At times like this Im lost at sea
Chorus
Why cant I see it for what it really is
And know it like I know my name
And if its all the same I dont like this game
So lets pack it up
And call it even
Well Im not the type to speak
Just to hear my voice
And Im sure youd hear me out
If you had the choice
But your words keep coming out
Neverending
And I wonder if Id have to shout and if I told you I was dying of thirst
And the sky was falling just to make it worse
Would you just smile and continue on
As if your mouth had a race to run
Chorus
Well Im glad we had this talk
I feel better
And if Ive something else to say
Ill write a letter
And if I told you you were not very good
At hearing others when you really should
Would you just smile and push me away
You cant be bothered theres still words to say

Talk It Out
(jack hues / nick feldman)
These days our problems seem to come in waves
Sometimes its hard to count them all
Youre reading all alone when suddenly
You feel yourself about to fall
Chorus:
If you need someone to talk it out
Then talk it out with me
If you need someone to talk it out
Then Im the one you need
Your fear of past mistakes intensifies
Your fear of everything thats new
You need a friend around to sympathise
Someone to help you with the view
Repeat chorus
If you need someone to talk it out
To talk of what you see
If you need someone to talk it out
Then Im the one you need
Repeat chorus
Talk it out
Talk it out oh oh
Im the one you need

Shiver
I walk a mile with a smile
And I don't know
I don't care where I am
But I know it's alright
Jump the tracks
Can't get back
I don't know anyone around here
But I'm safe this time
Cos when you
Tell me, Tell me, Tell me
Stupid things, like you do
Yes, I
Have to, have to, have to
Change the rules
I can't lose
CHORUS
Cause I shiver
I just break up
When I'm near you
It all gets out of hand
Yes I shiver
I get bent up
There's no way that
I know you'll understand
We talk and talk
'round it all
Who'd have thought
We'd end up here
But I'm feeling fine
In a rush
Never trust
You'll be there
If I'd only stop and take my time
Cos with you
I'm running, running, running
Somewhere I can't get to
Yes I have to have to have to
Change the rules
I'm with you
CHORUS
BRIDGE
What if you get off at the next stop
Would you just wave us I'm drifting off
And if I never saw you again
Could I keep all of this inside

Crazy Babies
CRAZY!!
BABIES!!
Crazy babies never say die
Born to live on a permanent high
Flying high above the world below
Better come down soon,
Or everyone will know just why
Nobody's gonna change them, change them
They've gone over the top
Nobody's gonna tame them, tame them
They're never gonna stop
Chorus:
Walk that walk
Talk that talk
Walk that walk
Talk that talk
CRAZY!!
BABIES!!
When they were born
They were born to be wild
Some say I'm another devil's child
Crazy babies in a world of their own
I am a crazy babe
You'd better leave me alone tonight
Nobody's gonna change me, change me
I'm gonna do this 'til I die
Nobody's gonna tame me, tame me
So you better not try
Chorus:
Walk that walk
Talk that talk
Walk that walk
Talk that talk
Solo
CRAZY!!
BABIES!!
No use talkin' 'bout if they'll last
Where they're goin' or about they're past
They're just a result of our society
So frustrated
Just like you and me, that's right
Nobody's gonna change them, change them
They've gone over the top
Nobody's gonna tame them, tame them
They're never gonna stop

Walk that walk

Safe
[verse 1]
Here I am alone with You
Quietly I talk to You
You said the truth would set me free
So here I am surrendering
(pre-chorus)
I know I can let your promise be my hope
And I know until You take me home
[chorus]
I'm safe (I'm safe), safe 'cause You love me
Safe (I'm safe), safe all because Your name
Has power to calm the ocean
When everything changes I'm safe
[verse 2]
My heart is overflowing
With peace beyond all knowing
This love is deep, it shelters me
And I'm safe within Your reach
(pre-chorus)
I know I can let your promise be my hope
And I know until You take me home
[chorus]
I'm safe (I'm safe), safe 'cause You love me
Safe (I'm safe), safe all because Your name
Has power to calm the ocean
When everything changes I'm safe

Though the odds are stacked against me
Though I'm running out of time
My heart is breaking
But I know You are mine
So I let You see into me as
You hold me in Your hand
My heart is on my sleeve
I'm safe because You understand
You understand

I'm safe (I'm safe), safe 'cause You love me
Safe (I'm safe), safe all because Your name
Has power to calm the ocean
When everything changes I'm safe

Cover Up
Cover up
With loving protection
Guard your love
In every direction CHORUS
Don't give up
For fear of rejection
Stand your ground and voice an objection
Run away my sister and brother
Be afraid of love when the lover VERSE 1
Tries to read the book by the cover
Wrapped up in the arms of another
(Repeat chorus)
Cover up prolonging the yearning
Just ahead the fires are burning VERSE 2
Swim for shore the tides are now turning
Love the ones you love with your learning
(Repeat chorus)
Look ahead the futures depending
On the brave to now start defending VERSE 3
Tell the world the message you're sending
We don't need an unhappy ending

Got to be safe if you want to be free BRIDGE
To sit in the shade of the family tree

Got to be safe if you want to be free

What Did I Do To You?
(l. stansfield/i. devaney/a. morris)
Its the way you walk, and the way you talk
Now youre nothing near the way that you were
And theres something strange when you hold my hand
Tell my why you changed the way that we were
Tell my why you changed the way that we were
Could we be the same, could we try again
Chorus:
What did I do to you, baby?
What did I do to you, baby?
What did I do to you, what did I do to you?
What did I do to you, baby?
You never touch my skin, in the way you did
And you even changed the way you kiss me
When lovers part theres a change of heart
But my heart cant change the way that we were
Oh no, my heart cant change the way that we were
Could we be the same, could we try again
Chorus
Togetherness is when I undress
Never when we talk, never tenderness
And I cant forget all the joy we had
But I know well be the way we were
Yes, I know well be the way we were
Could we be the same, could we try again
Chorus
Help me back

The Lover's Lane
The silken threads of night
begin to darken the sky
as lovers walk in secluded places
arm in arm under the moon.
They kiss and talk small talk
then continue to walk again
as evening stretches into night
on the lover’s lane.

Tell Me Im Not Dreamin
(too good to be true)
Moonlight took me by surprise
light coming from your eyes
Are you with me
Am I here with you
Are we in paradise
Tell me Im not dreamin
I know Ive been here before
You go, then you come back for more
Its a mystery how you disappear
Like a shadow in the night
Tell me Im not dreamin
Chorus:
Are you too good to be true
Tell me Im not dreamin
Are you too good to be true
Tell me Im not dreamin
Midnight images of you
You slipped, slipped into my room
Could be magic, could be fantasy
Could it be that were in love
Tell me Im not dreamin
Your voice whispers in the dark
You talk, talking to my heart
Are you with me
Am I here with you
Are we in paradise
Tell me Im not dreamin
(chorus)
When the morning comes
Wake me with your love
Let me know that Im not dreamin
Tell me this is real
Show me how you feel
Say its what we both believe in

She Loves To Talk
She wakes up in the mornin', puts her face on
grabs a cup o' coffee then she's on that phone..
(Chorus)
That woman loves to Talk (...she loves to talk...talk)
Yeah, she's what I want (she's what I want)
I don't mean to sound complainin'
she's my source of entertainment
That woman loves to talk!
Conversation ain't no trouble...in this family
She keeps me stimulated more than my new TV
(2nd Chorus)
That woman loves to Talk (...she loves to talk...talk)
yeah, she's what I want. (she's what I want)
She shoulda been a politician...
Got more wind than an air condition..
That woman Loves to Talk!
(Bridge)
Well, I know she might be different, that's what I like
She's something else when we turn down the light
It's hard to resist her, it's hard to explain
I love to hear her voice when she calls my name
(3rd chorus)
That woman loves to Talk! (...she loves to talk...talk..)
Yeah, she's what I want (she's what I want)
I wouldn't change a thing about her
wouldn't live this life without her
That woman Loves to Talk!
She could own Southern Bell ..for as much as she talks
She gets her recreation makin' long-distance calls!
(4th Chorus)
That woman Loves to Talk (...she loves to talk...talk..)
Yeah she's what I want (she's what I want)
I don't mean to sound complainin'
She's my source of entertainment
That woman Loves to Talk!
(2nd Bridge)
Yeah, she talks about this
Sometimes she talks about that
Every operator knows her name and address (...she loves to talk...talk..)
Can you hold on, please,
I'll check the line
I hope you got plenty of quarters and

A Wonderful Woman
A good talk is so up lifting
Taking one away from drifting
No thinking of if-ing
Just a good talk
One that make you want to walk
But not stalk...
One that take you back in years
Remembering your young tears and fears.
The laughter of childhood...
Damn! a good talk is so good.
Filling your heart with warmth
Putting dreams out of place...
Adding to your world lace...
And not haste.
A good talk and the world stands still...
What a thrill...
taking away ones ills...
Forgetting about ones pills...
Damn! what a good talk will do for you.
Opening up things within...
That you re-live again...
That good talk is with a woman.
A woman you enjoy...
A good talk taking from toy of being a boy.
The things a good woman is capable of...
Without making love.
So I thank the good LORD above...
For speech...
And what a good woman can teach.
All in a good talk...
A conversation without a face...
But on the over side woman.
A woman with grace.

Paradise Is Here
You say you want to live some
Move out into the fast lane
You say you need excitement
To make you come alive
Some place a million miles from
The shadows that surround you
I look for your attention
Youre lost out in the future
Where lovers ask no questions
And shadows never fall
Some pilgrim bound for paradise
No compromise
Paradise is here
Chorus:
Its time to stop your crying
The future is this moment
And not some place out there
Tonight I need your love
Dont talk about tomorrow
Right now I need your loving
Right now give it to me
Right now I want your loving
Right now- now, now, now
You talk about your new plans
To move up on the stairway
Your dream about the high life
Thats waiting for you there
A world of fame and fortune
Thats just around the corner
But I dont need no high life
To make me feel a real man
And I dont need to reach for
No castles in the sky
Just put your arms around me
Devour me
cos paradise is here
Chorus
Tonight I need your loving
Paradise is here

Hotel Lobby
She rises with the sunset
She wonders, "When will this end?"
The world is full of money, full of money
She goes out unprotected
She doesn't listen to her best friend
It's only for the money, for the money, for the money
She doesn't want to be respected
Reality's her best friend
She needs the extra money, extra money
In the city, the town, and the household
So many things go unreported
So many things her eyes have seen, eyes have seen, eyes have seen
>(Chorus)
Meet me in the hotel lobby
Everybody's looking lonely
Watch me as I walk in slowly
When your eyes meet mine
It's in the mirrors of the hotel lobby
This is not what she expected
Her hopes, they stretch and they bend
Wrinkle like paper money, paper money
In the city, the town, and the household
So many things can be distorted
So if you want a true life story, bring the money, bring the money
>Chorus (2x)
She's unprotected
She's unprotected, oh
She's unprotected
She's unprotected, oh
>Chorus
Meet me in the hotel lobby
Everybody's looking lonely
Catch me because I think I'm falling
I'll be waiting in the mirrors of the hotel lobby

Move On
Talk talk talk people are hammering in my brain
Say so much nothing it's making me insane
Telling out those rumors its gonna get hard to take
Goes on and on what you gotta tolerate
But never you mind ~ hey, don't waste your time
(chorus)
Move on ~ let it ride
Move on ~ leave it all behind
Shine it on ~ shine your light
Don't look back just leave it all behind I'll see you some other time
Move on
Them friends of many are really known by none
Forever high school jealousy 101
Make so much misery in this clich town
They just love to get it up for the big let down
But never you mind ~ hey don't waste your time
