Think For Yourself
You think you know just what it means
To be alone
You think youve suffered for your cause
Youre wrong
I dont really need to know what makes you tick
Or what you think is right
I dont want to know the reason you believe
Right now youre like the others
Your thoughts are not your own
Try thinking for yourself and act on what you know
Still you try to defend these things
You were taught
Youve got to try to change the way
You learn
Sometimes it feels just like Ive burned
Every single bridge
That I have ever crossed
I always try to learn
From all of these mistakes
Mistakes that I have made
But pride is a worthy adversary
In the struggle for yourself

Thru It All
I used to think that lonely was what Id always be
I used to lie awake at night afraid of facing my fear
But I found my strength, the very day that I found you
My guiding light, just like a fairy tale come true
-bridge-
My self-esteem was low but just like superman
You took me by the hand made me understand
Showed me happiness was never to far- thru it all
Youve been at my back- thru it all
Youre the reason I stand so tall
Youve always been there to catch my fall
Youve been at my back- thru it all
Youve been my boo my best friend and my confidant
When Im sad and blue youre the only one that I want
And youve got a way with words that makes everything okay
Youre poetry in motion you brighten up my night and day
-bridge-
You said dont be afraid and to never doubt myself
And now that I found you I dont want no one else
Wont you take my hand lets reach for the stars- thru it all
Youve been at my back- thru it all
Youre the reason I stand so tall
Youve always been there to catch my fall
Youve been at my back- thru it all
-bridge-
You said dont be afraid and just like superman
You took me by the hand made me understand
Showed me you would be there when I call- thru it all
Youve been at my back- thru it all
Youre the reason I stand so tall
Youve always been there to catch my fall
Youve been at my back- thru it all
Youve been at my back- thru it all
Youre the reason I stand so tall
Youve always been there to catch my fall
Youve been at my back- thru it all

Oh Teacher
(b. gibb/r. gibb/m. gibb)
Every season of my life
People say it, she go far
I exceeded what as needed
Dont you wanna know what I came here for
Turn the lights way down
I will find you somewhere in the dark
Im lying with you, youre lying with me
I wanna to show you what I know so far
By doing it right
Im working on my design
Im making love with a friend of mine
I wanna do it, Ill get you through it
Theres nothing to it
You wont be leaving me without a star
Oh teacher, you get the test of my love
No matter what you learn
Oh teacher you got the best time, the last time
But this time youre gonna get burned
Oh teacher, you made me study all night
After the end of term
Oh teacher,youve got the first time, the last time
But this time youre gonna get burned
Walk, think, act
As the book to you defines
Reach out for the one you love
It may be someone you left behind
Youre the reason that I breathe
Youre the savior of my nights
Did I leave you without a lover
But Ill never let you out of sight
Youre gonna be mine
Ive got a wider range
We keep the system but the rules may change
My lips are wetter, I do it better
And if you let me I will help you grow
Baby, dont say no
Oh teacher, you get the test of my love
No matter what you learn
Oh teacher, youve got the best time, the last time
But this time youre gonna get burned
Oh teacher, you made me study all night
After the end of term
Oh teacher, youve got the first time, the last time
But this time youre gonna get burned
Talk, move, smile
Do it right
We know the way
Watch out for the danger lies
In any game that you wanna play
In any game
Oh teacher, you get the test of my love
No matter what you learn
Oh teacher, youve got the best time, the last time
But this time youre gonna get burned
Oh teacher, you made me study all night
After the end of term
Oh teacher, youve got the first time, the last time
But this time youre gonna get burned

Heart Of Stone
Written by christine mcvie.
Oh I have seen
Such madness in the air
Just like a dream
It makes no sense anywhere
Hopes have shattered
Shattered like broken glass
I believed it was just too good to last
(it seemed to me it was too good to last)
So now youre saying youve been wrong
And you want to come back home
You know Ive known all along
That you had a heart of stone
And now you want to change your song
Youre tired of living alone
You know Ive known all along
That you had a heart made of stone
But dont you remember
Those days of cold delight
We could make it all right
It seems so long ago
Oh maybe it was yesterday
Where did the time go
I guess it just slipped away
(seemed like the time was slipping away)
So now youre saying youve been wrong
And you want to come back home
You know Ive known all along
That you had a heart of stone
And now you want to change your song
Youre tired of living alone
You know Ive known all along
That you had a heart made of stone
Youre never too old to learn
Youre never too young to pray
Its never too late to learn
And hope for better days
Youre never too old to learn
Youre never too young to pray
Its never too late to learn
And hope for better days
So now youre saying youve been wrong
And you want to come back home
You know Ive known all along
That you had a heart of stone
And now you want to change your song
Youre tired of living alone
You know Ive known all along
That you had a heart made of stone
So now youre saying youve been wrong
And you want to come back home
You know Ive known all along
That you had a heart of stone

Dont You
I could tear your walls down as I chip at who you are now
Dont you
You ever let me know how
And I could break your heart down as I tell you that youve burned out
Dont you
You want to let it go
Oh, I might scream and shout now as I feel you pressing down on
Dont you
You walk upon my heels now
You walk on
And I should call your soul out but I feel Ive gained control now
Dont you
You tell me what to do as you
You twist and turn your thoughts around
Oh, this road its getting long
Stones, dont you
Theyre getting harder and youre slipping slowly further
Youre slipping slowly further
Youre slipping further than youve been before
But I dont need to know how
And I dont need to blow out your candle
Its only burning at both ends
But your moods they wash away
No need to dose your eyes today
You just take your
Your deeper breath youre going
Your deeper breath youre going
Under this time
Its under this time
You, youve got to go now
Wont you, youve got to go not
And dont you, you know it
Dont you, you know it
Youve got to go now
Dont you, youve gotta go now

Jet Boy Blue
Written by dan peek and catherine peek, 1976
Found on hideaway.
Jet boy blue
You steal and you think that its right
Like a thief in the night
Ah, oh yeah
Ill tell you its true
You come around with your stories to tell
I dont hold no intrest
But I let you go
I know youve fallen under his spell
Dont let him kill you
Hell only fill you with lies
Youre a fool and you know it
Done your best not to show it
But its all over
Youre through
Jet boy blue
Hell only take you for a ride
Only cost you your pride
Jet boy blue
Stop, stop while youre still ahead
Youve got a lot to learn
Youre still so young
Listen to what your mama said
Try to tell you go to hell
Youre just a kid
Dont take no advice, you never think twice
Close the door
Jump in, dont mention what you did
Stop, stop while youre still ahead
Youve got a lot to learn
Youre still so young
Listen to what your mama said
Youre a fool and you know it
Done your best not to show it
But its all over
Youre through
Jet boy blue
Hell only take you for a ride
Only cost you your pride
Jet boy blue
Stop, stop while youre still ahead
Youve got a lot to learn
Youre still so young
Listen to what your mama said

You steal and you think that its right

Ordinary
Now youve made it up
Its all inside your mind
Now youve given up
You dont know whats there if you dont try
So youve given in along with all your friends
And youre still alone
The means dont always justify the end
Ordinary, ordinary
A look in the mirror is not enough
What makes you think that youre not one of us?
If you make it up and start to use your mind
It isnt difficult
You dont know whats there if you dont try

Do I Have To?
(tennant/lowe)
-----------------
I dont care what youve said, and I mean it
I dont care what youve shared, cause Ive seen it
Whos to judge if youre wrong? this is a bad time
Just as long as you break his heart and not mine
Tell him youre a liar, tell him Im a saint
Say its much too early, or just too late
Tell him that youre weak, beg him to be strong
Say youre very sorry but you were wrong
Do I have to? dont say!
Do I need to love you?
Do I have to? dont say!
Do I need to love you?
Its a fatal mistake, and you know it
That youre dying to make; youll pay for it
Its already too late, go on, admit it
Tell him its a problem, tell him its too hard
Say youve phoned your best friend and scotland yard
Swear that therell be murder, tell him that Im ill
Say you know its blackmail, but that dont kill
Do I have to? dont say!
Do I need to love you?
Do I have to? dont say
That I need to love you?
Do I have to? oh, dont say!
Do I need to love you?
Do I have to? dont say
Do I need to love you?
I know what you assume about me
I hurt, but do I have to bleed?
Do I have to? dont say!
Do I need to love you?
Do I have to? dont say!
Do I need to love you?
Do I have to? dont say!
Do I need to love you?
Do I have to? dont say
That I need to love you?
Do I have to?
Do I have to?
Dont say
Do I have to?
Love you?

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
(bridge)
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
That dont impress me

Learn To Say No
No sweat, no pain
No lost, no gain
More of the same
Youve got to stop that straight away
Beg the question
There in the answer lies
Search your soul for a self control
(redefine your roll
But keep your feet on the ground)
Sooner or later
Maybe tomomrrow
Sooner or later
Youve got to learn to say no
Ill be cruel to be kind
You play it cool every time
Playing games in your mind
Youve got to stop that straight away
Sad and lonely
But you say youre having fun
Dont you know you been had enough
When push comes to shove
You always let yourself down
Sooner or later
Maybe tomorrow
Sooner or later
Youve got to learn to say no
The key to moving on is knowing when its over
Sometimes surrender is the only way to go
Sad and lonely
But you say youre having fun
Seem to me youve been so confused
Cant you see that its time to choose
Youve got to beg your questions
There in the answer lies
Dont you know you been had enough
When push comes to shove youre always let yourself down
Sooner or later
Maybe tomorrow
Sooner or later
Youve got to learn to say no

Are You Still Having Fun?
You are on your own
You do as you please
Having so much fun
Gone and lost your reason
After all is said and done
Are you still having fun?
How were you to know when youve gone astray?
That happiness would go like a lost emotion
You have always gone your way
Are you happy today?
Well you know when youve been defeated
You dont care and you thank no one
Feeling low you will always need it
Are youre having fun
You dont know what is it youve done
You dont know that...
This was your mistake with the master plan
With all the drugs you take, you can hardly stand
After all is said and done
Are you still having fun?
Well, you know when youve been defeated
You dont care and you thank no one
Feeling low you will always need it
Are youre having fun...
Are you still having fun?
You dont know what it is youve done
Just to show that youre having fun
You dont know what it is youve done
Just to show that...
I can set you straight if you let me stay
I hope Im not too late
No you wont regret it
I can show you the way
And make you happy today
Yes, you know when youve been defeated
You dont care and you thank no one
Feeling low you will always need it
Well, you know when youre being cheated
Yes, you know when youve been defeated
Feeling low you will always need it
Now you*re having fun...
And are you still having fun?
Are you still having fun?
Are you still having

School
I can see you in the morning when you go to school
Dont forget your books, you know youve got to learn the golden rule,
Teacher tells you stop your play and get on with your work
And be like johnnie - too-good, well dont you know he never shirks
- hes coming along!
After school is over youre playing in the park
Dont be out too late, dont let it get too dark
They tell you not to hang around and learn what lifes about
And grow up just like them - wont you let it work it out
- and youre full of doubt
Dont do this and dont do that
What are they trying to do?
- make a good boy of you
Do they know where its at?
Dont criticise, theyre old and wise
Do as they tell you to
Dont want the devil to
Come out and put your eyes
Maybe Im mistaken expecting you to fight
Or maybe Im just crazy, I dont know wrong from right
But while I am still living, Ive just got this to say
Its always up to you if you want to be that
Want to see that
Want to see that way
- youre coming along!

One More Try
Ive had enough of danger
And people on the streets
Im looking out for angels
Just trying to find some peace
Now I think its time
That you let me know
So if you love me
Say you love me
But if you dont just let me go...
cos teacher
There are things that I dont want to learn
And the last one I had
Made me cry
So I dont want to learn to
Hold you, touch you
Think that youre mine
Because it aint no joy
For an uptown boy
Whose teacher has told him goodbye, goodbye, goodbye
When you were just a stranger
And I was at your feet
I didnt feel the danger
Now I feel the heat
That look in your eyes
Telling me no
So you think that you love me
Know that you need me
I wrote the song, I know its wrong
Just let me go...
And teacher
There are things
That I dont want to learn
Oh the last one I had
Made me cry
So I dont want to learn to
Hold you, touch you
Think that youre mine
Because it aint no joy
For an uptown boy
Whose teacher has told him goodbye, goodbye, goodbye
So when you say that you need me
That youll never leave me
I know youre wrong, youre not that strong
Let me go
And teacher
There are things
That I still have to learn
But the one thing I have is my pride
Oh so I dont want to
Hold you, touch you
Think that youre mine
Because there aint no joy
For an uptown boy
Who just isnt willing to try
Im so cold
Inside
Maybe just one more try...

Points Of Authority
Forfeit the game before somebody else, takes you out of the frame, puts your
Name to shame
Cover up your face, you cant run the race, the pace is too fast, you just
Wont last
You love the way I look at you
While taking pleasure in the awful things you put me through
You take away if I give in
My life my pride is broken
You like to think youre never wrong
You have to act like youre someone
You want someone to hurt like you
You want to share what youve been through (you live what you learn)
You love the things I say Ill do
The way Ill hurt myself again just to get back at you
You take away when I give in

Back To School
You didnt listen when you went to school
You dressed like a clown and you behaved like a fool
But now your education is about to begin
The difference between love and the mess that youre in
You figured youre cool Ill bend all the rules
Ill get them going red flags to a bull
Its not like the movies no duel in the sun
You need the answer to get your love done
Now youre going back to school
Now youre going to learn the rules
Now youre going back, youre going back
Youre going back to school
You know the business or so you believe
You set all your sights but you aim to deceive
You think youll hit the target every time that you fire
You think you know the difference between love and desire
But someones waiting to turn you around
Shell shoot you down and put your feet on the ground
Its not like dreamin you can make mistakes
A lesson learned is not so easy to take
Now youre going back to school
Now youre going to learn the rules
Now youre going back, youre going back
Youre going back to school
Now youre going back to school
Now youre going to learn the rules
Now youre going back, youre going back
Youre going back to school
Youre doin numbers but you dont keep the score
Theyre scratchin the surface but they dont
Reach the core
You only bought the ticket cause the price was all in
Youll never reach the heart until you,ve broken the skin
Youre busy running but you never relax
Live now pay later including the tax
But now your education is about to begin
Forget about the stories and the places youve been
Now youre going back to school
Now youre going to learn the rules
Now youre going back, youre going back
Youre going back to school
Back to school back to school

If You Think I Dont Need You
(words & music by west - cooper)
If you think I dont need you
Then take a look in my eyes
Maybe these aint raindrops
Falling out of the sky
Since you been gone
Ive been so alone
If you think I dont need you
Then baby youre wrong
If you think I dont love you
What could I do to prove to you baby
My love is true
I sing the same old song
Since youve been gone
If you think I dont love you
Then baby youre wrong
My life aint been the same since you left me
I aint had a wink of sleep in seven days
I dont know what to do Im going crazy
I just walk the floor at night and call your name
If you think I dont do right
Ill change my ways
Ill do like you want me to, Ill be your slave
Since you been gone
Ive been so alone
If you think I dont need you
Well baby youre wrong
If you think I dont do right
Ill change my ways
Ill do like you want me to, Ill be your slave
Since you been gone

Morale... Youve Lost That Loving Feeling
Dont talk
Close the door
Youve been here before
Your shape dim
Im an old man now
The airs thin
The walls very damp now
And if I dont go
Ill always be stuck here in this poor little room
With a view of the corner
I dont forget
The light growing weak now
Experience is useless
Unless you can learn
And Ive never met anyone
Who used their knowledge
To avoid those mistakes made again and again
And if I dont go
Ill always be stuck here in this poor little room
With a view of the corner
You never close your eyes anymore when I kiss your lips
And theres no tenderness like before in your fingertips
Youre trying hard not to show it (baby)
But baby, baby I know it
Youve lost that loving feeling
Woah, that loving feeling
Youve lost that loving feeling
Now its gone, gone, gone
Woah-woah
Now theres no welcome look in your eyes when I reach for you
And girl youre starting to criticise little things I do
It makes me just feel like crying (baby)
cos, baby, something beautifuls dying
Youve lost that loving feeling
Woah, that loving feeling
Youve lost that loving feeling
Now its gone, gone, gone
Woah-woah
Baby, baby, Id get down on my knees for you
If you would only love me like you used to do, yeah
We had a love, a love, a love you dont find every day
So dont, dont, dont, dont let it slip away
Bring back that loving feeling
Woah, that loving feeling
Bring back that loving feeling
Now its gone, gone, gone
And I cant go on
Baby (baby), baby (baby)
I want you please (woooo)
Please (woooo)
I need your love (I need your love)
I need your love (I need your love)
Now it bring it on back (bring it on back
) bring it on back now (bring it on back now)
Now bring it on back
