Inside & Out

Released on spot the pigeon e.p., 1977.
Inside
Brother seems theyre letting him out next year
Hes behaving himself, I hear
Governor conway says it will be fine
Just as long as he can tow the line
Its the same old story
But it says here mum youre not to worry
cos some you lose and some you lose
At this party, he was on his own
All he did was say hed take her home
But it seems they didnt go straight there
cos on the porch, she told him,
Put your hand here
Yes its that same old story
They told her mum shes not to worry
Police if what she says is so,
Well never let him go!
Him never a word could be heard
Not even the sound of a bird
Singing it over again, telling a different story
Never the same as before
See the summer going out by the door
Brother and now that youve paid for those lies
Get another disguise
Its twenty years now since our kid came free
Oh I remember august 53
But it wasnt quite like they said
With that behind you, you cant plan ahead
Yes its the same old story
They say youre free, but dont worry
What they saids not so
Theyll never let you go!
Him never a word could be heard
Not even the sound of a bird
Singing it over again, telling a different story
Never the same as before
See the summer going out by the door
Brother and now that youve paid for those lies
Get another disguise
Out

Inside And Out

INSIDE
Brother Seems they're letting him out next year
He's behaving himself, I hear
Governor Conway says it will be fine
Just as long as he can tow the line
It's the same old story
But it says here "Mum you're not to worry"
'Cos some you lose and some you lose
At this party, he was on his own
All he did was say he'd take her home
But it seems they didn't go straight there
'cos on the porch, she told him,
"put your hand here"
Yes it's that same old story
They told her mum she's not to worry
Police "If what she says is so,
we'll never let him go!"
Him "Never a word could be heard
Not even the sound of a bird
Singing it over again, telling a different story
Never the same as before
See the summer going out by the door"
Brother And now that you've paid for those lies
Get another disguise
"It's twenty years now since our Kid came free
Oh I remember August '53
But it wasn't quite like they said
With that behind you, you can't plan ahead
Yes it's the same old story
They say you're free, but don't worry

No Way Out

No intentions
Whatsoever
I was gone for a night
Nothings forever
The cruel daylight
Brought me back to my senses (back to my senses)
Got caught in here
Under false pretenses
No way out
None whatever
I made up the story
Thought it was clever
She didnt ask
And I got no reply (got no reply)
But later that night
I heard her cry
Chorus:
No way out she doesnt buy my story
No way out she doesnt buy my story
No way out she doesnt buy my story
No way out she doesnt buy my story
No accusations
Whatsoever
But can she forget
Nothings forever
Since yesterday
Shes a little bit colder (little bit colder)
Wont happen again
What could Ive told her
No way out she doesnt buy my story
No way out she doesnt buy my story
No way out she doesnt buy my story
No way out she doesnt buy my story
Doesnt buy my story
How can she tell the truth from the lies
When does she know when to close her eyes
She doesnt want to lose me
So she only sees what she wants to see
No way out she doesnt buy my story
No way out she doesnt buy my story
No way out she doesnt buy my story
No way out, no way
No way out...

Every Face Tells A Story

(m. allison/p. sills/d. black)
Theres no need for you to tell me
I can see the way you feel
I just know without you saying
What is a lie and whats real
Every face tells a story
Its hard to hide a lie
Every face tells a story
And yours is saying goodbye
Somethings going on, and I know it
You cant keep it from me
Your smile cannot hide what you feel inside
And I dont like what I see
Every face tells a story
Its hard to hide a lie
Every face tells a story
And yours is saying goodbye
Youre always telling stories
Youre always telling me lies
Youre always telling stories
If you want to leave me, leave me
No good living a lie
You can pretend that were not gonna end
But your eyes are saying goodbye
Every face tells a story
Its hard to hide a lie
Every face tells a story
And yours is saying goodbye
Youre always telling stories
Youre always telling me lies
Youre always telling stories
Tell me, I got a right to know
Pour your little heart out to me, baby
You know, you know I dont want to let go
Every face tells a story
Its hard to hide a lie
Every face tells a story
And yours is saying goodbye

Every Face Tells A Story

Look at the man in the corner, hes sitting all alone
His blankets are made out of cardboard,
His pillows are made out of stone
Every face tells a story it never tells a lie
Every face tells a story it never tells a lie
See the man walking on the water, see the light in his eyes
He came into the world with a message to tell,
He came into the world to die
Every face tells a story it never tells a lie
Every face tells a story it never tells a lie
Youre always telling stories, youre always telling me lies
Youre always telling stories, why?
So think of yourself in the water, seeing your days flashing by
Its too late to see what you wanted to be,
Youve spent all your time, you must die
Every face tells a story it never tells a lie
Every face tells a story it never tells a lie
Step down
And make it work out right
Im trying to get to you with my warning
Been there
For nearly half the night
Look its nearly four in the morning

The Lifting

Grounded, 5 a.m., the nightlite is comforting
But gravity is holding you.
Once settled into sleep,
You have watched
On repeat the story of your life
Across the ceiling
And in review.
Youve said the air was singing.
Its calling you, you dont believe.
These things youve never seen.
Good morning, how are you?
The weathers fine,
The sky is blue.
Its perfect for our seminar.
Now close your eyes and start to breathe,
Allow the noise to recede,
Allow yourself to drift and fly away.
But you just stay.
Youve said the air was singing,
Its calling you, you dont believe
These things youve never seen,
Never heard.
Did you hear these voices?
Did you hear these voices calling?
Did you hear these voices calling you?
Locked into a conference room,
Were only what our minds assume
And rationale is leaving you.
This conceit these systems of belief
Your counselor agrees
You always mark these boundaries now youre free
And with relief.
Youve said the air was singing,
Its calling you, you dont believe
These things youve never seen,
Never heard, never dreamed.
You said the air was singing,
Its calling you, you dont believe
These things youve never seen,
Never heard, never dreamed.
Never, never, never...
Once you had a dream
Of oceans and sunken cities,
Memories of things youve never known
And you have left alone.

His Story

Yo, this is a story of a male female threat to society
You know being misjudged and not respected for what we are
But I want to send this special shout out to my girl tawana brawley
Cause no matter what we say or what we do
Theyll always believe his story (ow)
Chorus:
His story (yeahee, yeahee, yeahee)
Hist story (ow)
Theyre gonna believe
His story
His story
Why does it have to be that we get labeled for what we do
Its hard enough for us to be ourselves without being used
Girls have an image too
But when they get mad at you
There is no telling what theyll say to hurt you
This is a story of a male female threat to society
Why you wanna go and tell a lie on me? (yeahee, yeah, oooh)
His story over mine his story will be his story
And my story is a waste of time (aaaah-aah-aah)
Theyre gonna believe
Chorus
Sometimes I feel like there is no reason for me to explain
No matter how much we complain
You know it all stays the same
They try to call us freaks
Why does it have to be
We cant get justified until we speak up (oooh)
This is a story of a male female threat to society
Why you wanna go and tell a lie on me? (yeahee, yeah, oooh)
His story over mine his story will be his story
And my story is a waste of time (aaaah-aah-aah)
(you know its just a waste of my time)
Theyre gonna believe
His story over mine
So what you gonna do
Dont let it take over you (hey)
My story is a waste of time
Its hard enough to be ourselves without being used
So yo take it from me
Dont be a victim of society
You cant put yourself in a position to be neglected
And disrespected
You have to do whats not expected
Alright
Or all be his story
His story over mine
His story will be his story
(this is a story of) how could you do this to us
Theyre gonna believe
His story over mine
His story will be his story and
My story is a waste of time
Theyre gonna believe
His story over mine
His story will be his story
And my story is a waste of time
Youre gonna believe
This is a story of a male female threat to society
Why you wanna go and tell a lie on me? (yeah, yeah)
This is a story (peace, love and hair and grease from tlc) of a male
Female threat to society
Why you wanna go tell a lie on me? (yeahee, yeahee, ho)

Rescue You

After he hurt you, you said you were leaving; you got up to walk out the door.
The story hes telling you, you werent believin; youve certainly
Heard it before.
And I cant stand it, youre feeling so sad. I cant take it, its makin
Me mad.
Say the word and I will rescue you. (say the word, say the word)
Say the word and I will come to rescue you.
I could be wrong, but unless Im mistaken, its only a matter of time.
And I know youre giving him more than youve taken; youve come to the end of
The line.
And I cant stand it, youre feeling so sad. I cant take it, its makin me
Mad.
Say the word and I will rescue you. (say the word, say the word)
Say the word and I will come to rescue you. (say the word, say the word)
Something missing in your life; tell you what I say; blues are on the run and
Help is on the way.
Something missing in your life; tell you what Ill do.
Just like in a fairy tale, Ill rescue you. Im gonna rescue you.
I just cant take it when your feeling so sad.
I cant take it, its making me mad.
Something missing in your life; tell you what I say; blues are on the run and
Help is on the way.
Something missing in your life; tell you what Ill do.
Just like in a fairy tale, Ill rescue you. Im gonna rescue you.
Say the word and I will rescue you. (say the word, say the word)
Say the word and I will come to rescue you. (you know that help is on the way)

Take It On The Run

Heard it from a friend who
Heard it from a friend who
Heard it from another you been messin around
They say you got a boy friend
Youre out late every weekend
Theyre talkin about you and its bringin me down
But I know the neighborhood
And talk is cheap when the story is good
And the tales grow taller on down the line
But Im telling you, babe
That I dont think its true, babe
And even if it is keep this in mind
{refrain}
You take it on the run baby
If thats the way you want it baby
Then I dont want you around
I dont believe it
Not for a minute
Youre under the gun so you take it on the run
Youre thinking up your white lies
Youre putting on your bedroom eyes
You say youre coming home but you wont say when
But I can feel it coming
If you leave tonight keep running
And you need never look back again
{refrain x 3}
Heard it from a friend who
Heard it from a friend who
Heard it from another you been messin around

Its The Same Old Story

M. field / n. oliphant
The same old story
Its as old as the stars above
The same old story
Of a boy and a girl in love
The scenes say more moonlight
The times say more june light
Romances the thing
Two hearts away deep in a dream
The same old story
Its been told much too much before
The same old story
But its worth telling just once more
Its all fun and laughter
They lived ever after in ecstacy
The same old story but its new to me

My Boyfriend

When I hear your voice I get a tingle feeling inside me
When you hug me I feel free
But when we kiss it's another story
I always will worry
That the story won't be a happy ending
No more pretending
I hope you feel the same
Even if I am not famous

Poison

(l. stansfield/i. devaney/a. morris)
Spoken:
Dont worry about me, baby
Whenever you walk by me, I can here you breath
I can smell the love you made when you were gone
Darlin dont deny it, or make excuses
Ive heard too many lies, to know that Im not wrong
Baby dont insult me
Im too tired to let it hurt me
Baby just believe me
And give me back my key, and set me free
Chorus:
Keep youre body to yourself, or give it to somebody else
Youre poison
Cant you you see Im far to tough to let it hurt
Ive had enough of your poison
Dont lay your hands upon me
Just crawl back where you came from
I shutter at the thought of you touching me
Youve stained the love I gave you
Baby, not for long
So much I could have given you
But now youll never know
Baby dont insult me
Im too tired to let it hurt me
Baby just believe me
And give me back my key, and set me free
Chorus
Got bad habits on your mind, youre underhanded
Im not blind to your poison
Spoken:
Dont make me laugh, youve told so many lies
And of all the lies you told me, baby, youre the biggest
You think youve hurt me
Im far too strong to let it get to me
Cant you see that Im not crying anymore
So just get off my back, and leave me alone

This Is The Story

(words & music by arnold - morrow - martin)
I play the song, it was our own
Your photographs by my side
I know I cant forget you
So I dont even try
The note you left is in my hand
I read again what you say
Youre sorry but you love him
And youve both gone away
This is the story of a man
Whose world has fallen apart
And its the story
That is breaking my heart
An open fire, our favorite chair
I get a book from the shelf
But the words I am reading
Could apply to myself
This is the story of a man
Whose world has fallen apart
And its the story
That is breaking my heart
Yes, its the story that is breaking my heart
Yes, its the story that is breaking my heart
Yes, its the story that is breaking my heart

Please Remember Me

Two sad faces tell the story
Heard so many times before
He is leaving she is staying
Neither of them know what for
Theres no laughter theres no crying
There is love theres no denying
Differences led to goodbye and please remember me
And she said-Ive got phone and a mail box
A front door thats unlocked
A faith in the feelings therell be someone you forgot
True Im gonna miss you, true Im gonna need you
You know Im not the one to worry
Oh but I heard the weather report
It says its gonna be cold and lonely
So honey wont you please remember me
Im the one that loves you
Please remember me
Im the one that cares
Please remember me
Ill be thinking of you
And should you ever decide you wanna come home
Ill be there
This is like that old love story
Those whove lost love know its true
Shes sitting by a window waiting
Hes sitting somewhere wonderin what to do
They know they should be together
They know they should reconcile
He knew he would regret her saying please remember me
She said-youve got a home and a warm bed
A roof over your head
A place in my heart for someone Ill never forget
True Im gonna miss you, true Im gonna need you
You know Im not the one to worry
Oh but I heard the weather report
It says its gonna be cold and lonely
So honey wont you please remember me
Im the one that loves you
Please remember me
Im the one that cares
Please remember me
Ill be thinking of you
And should you ever decide you wanna come home
Ill be there
Oh lover wont you please remember
Wont you please remember me
Ooh lover wont you please remember

Once when I was in Hawaii, on the island of Kauai, I met a mysterious old stranger. He said he was about to die and wanted to tell someone about the treasure. I said, "Okay, as long as it's not a long story. Some of us have a plane to catch, you know." He stared telling his story, about the treasure and his life and all, and I thought "This story isn't too long." But then, he kept going, and I started thinking, "Uh-oh, this story is getting long." But then the story was over, and I said to myself "You know, that story wasn't too long after all." I forget what the story was about, but there was a good movie on the plane. It was a little long, though.

Some New Game

Ive seen them come
Ive seen them go
Ive seen them all
Call this affection
Ive seen them do things
You wouldnt believe
I cant remember your name
I cant remember the time
I cant remember at all
Never again
She wants film
She wants sound
She wants everything
Its not love
In slow motion
Its a strange new game
Youve got a picture of me
And Ive got a picture of you
But whos got a picture of us?
Never again
Do it once more for the man on the phone
Do it once more for the boys in the band
Do it once more for the girl with no heart
Will you do it once more for me?
Shes black
Shes white
She could be anything
She looks good
She looks bad
She could tear me apart
Just say goodbye when you leave
And Ill say goodbye when youre gone
Well say goodbye in the dark
But never again
Do it once more for the man on the phone
Do it once more for the boys in the band
Do it once more for the girl with no heart
Will you do it once more for me?
Ive heard your story before
Ill hear your story again
Now Ive got a story for you
Never again
Do it once more for the man on the phone
Do it once more for the boys in the band
Do it once more for the girl with no heart
Will you do it once more for me?
Do it once more for the man on the phone
Do it once more for the boys in the band
Do it once more for the girl with no heart
Will you do it once more for me?

Brother Where You Bound

Theres a red cloud hanging over us
And its so big and its gonna burst
All you people with your heads in the ground
Hey brother, where you bound?
And theyre no good and theyre everywhere
Try to tell you, but you just dont care
Try to hear you but you dont make a sound
Hey brother, where you bound?
Hey brother, where you bound?
And you dont know what theyre gonna do
And you dont know how they feel
And you dont know what theyre tellin you
Is it a lie or is it real
And the next thing that you know is
That they walk out on the deal
And the message that theyre giving you
Is the same old alibi
If you dont quite see their point of view
Then they treat you like a spy
And the phone rings and you disappear
In the middle of the night
Cant you see theyre on the move
Dont know what youre trying to prove
But you sit there oh so cool
Like they never broke no rules
And the cat flies and the crow walks
And the ghost dies and the sow talks
And they tell us that theyll be good as gold
Blieve nothing that youre told
Hey brother, wheres your soul?
Make a move in one direction
Try to make some compromise
But they greet you with rejection
Makin out youre tellin lies
Then they turn around and tell you
Better get down from the sky
For the sake of all thats holy
Listen good to what I say
I can feel them all around me
They could be here any day
But you act like you dont know me
Why d you look at me that way
If theres one thing that is clear
We gotta get away from here
Weve gotta leave this place
Its just a hopeless case
Aint no one else to blame
Were gonna lose this game
Hey brother get off my back
I gotta tell you, youre way off the track
They got a hatred deep down inside
Aint gonna let them take me alive
Im gonna burn them down, just wait and see
Aint gonna let them walk over me
Boy you aint got no heart and soul
And your mind is weak and your bloods runnin cold
You better move, you better hide
Theyre gettin in, theyre gettin inside
If you get caught you better know
Theyre gonna reap, youre gonna sow
Dont be a fool, we gotta go
Aint no place safe for us to stay
We better move on, we better move on
