Whos To Blame
Written by kim wilde & tony swain
Just like in a dream
Im trying to scream
But no-one can hear me when I call
I feel paralysed
Unable to cry
While watching the world around me fall
Heard it on the news today
What are we doing to our world
Theres got to be a better way
And weve got to choose it
And while we destroy
Our children will grow
Not missing the things theyll never know
A crime against them
Against you and me
A crime against all humanity
Heard it on the news today
What are we doing to our world
Theres got to be a better way
And weve got to choose it
Dont you know that a day will come
To everyone
When theyll ask us to explain
Are we going to say that we werent to blame
Who else could there be
Just like in a dream
Im trying to scream
I feel paralysed
Unable to cry
What are we doing
Heard it on the news today
What are we doing to our world
Theres got to be a better way
Or were gonna lose it
Whos to blame?

New Disease
I heard the news today
All about your new disease
This is what you said you wanted
When you walked away from me
I heard the news today
Yeah i know what your friends all say
That i'm gonna go to hell, they're all probably right
I just wanna go to hell my way
I just wanna do it my way
I heard the news today
All about your new romance
There is always gonna be someone better than me
I guess i never had a chance
Yes i heard the news today
You were livin' by the sound of the bell
I still believe that life gets better when you tell the world to go to hell
Oh i don't wanna play your game
I don't wanna live that way
I don't wanna do what you tell me to do
I don't fit inside the box you've made
No i don't wanna play your game
No i will never live that way
I don't wanna do what you tell me to do
I just want to do it my way
Yes i heard the news today
You've got scars on your hands and knees
You never would have been so ovbious when i was a new disease
Yes i heard the news today
You were livin' by the sound of a bell
I still believe that life gets better when you tell the world to go to hell
Oh i don't wanna play your game
I don't wanna live that way
I don't wanna do what you tell me to do
I don't fit inside the box you've made
No i will never play your game
No i will never live that way
No i don't wanna live like you want me to live
I just want to live my way

Ah, ah, ah, ah
Youve been had by a fool, hes been all over you
And youve been seen in a dream, well I guess its true
Now what you gonna do (ooh), and what you gonna say (hey)
The captains heard the news (news), that someone has to pay (hey)
That someone has to pay
Weve been down for awhile, and still we cant agree
Dont be mad, dont be sad, change is all we need
Im beggin you, if you please, it means so much to me
Ill beg you, if you please, it means so much to me
Now its time to choose, no one has to lose
When it could be right, now maybe
Theres some hope in sight, ooh, I hope Im right
Electric jewels, in hands of fools, then throw it all at me
Heres my life, heres my dreams, now wont you set me free
Im beggin with you, please, it means so much to me
Im beggin with you, please, it means so much to me
Now its time to choose, no one has to lose
When it could be right, now maybe
Theres some hope in sight, ooh baby, ooh baby, ooh
Speaking in a dream, of a land hes never seen
And he says its true, says hed love to be with you
So listen while you can, and Ill tell you of a man
Who would sell the world, though it seems absurd, its true
Id do it for you

Get Up & Get Out
Pop
Im wondering if fellas youve heard the news
These girls are tired of being abused
I saw it ull in a dream last night
Theyll be baving this town if you dont treat em right
Theyll get up
Get up and get out
I wonder buster if youve heard the word
My little babys gonna give you the bird
You can check this information on the radio show
Digging that chick little eva singing locomotion
Shes the kind of girl who wants to know
Your deepest secret world
Im wondering fellas if youve heard the news
The chicks are sick and tired of being abused
Now I saw all this on the wide screen
You know that chick bette davis split right out of the scene
She got up she got up
Get up and get out
She got up she got up
Get up and get out
Shes the kind of girl who wants to know

Heavy Weather
(michael sembello)
In the news today
Heavy weather
Oh, I can remember
The skies were so blue
That lucky old moon I promised to you
Now its gone lately
Somethings happening
I dont understand
Oh, how come decembers
Are hotter that june?
And how come the flowers
Dont know when to bloom?
Somethings wrong, people
Somethings happening
Happening where we live
The rising smoke against an endless sea of cars
As mother nature gets another senseless scar
In the news today
I guess were in for heavy weather
In the world today
Were heading for some heavy weather
The rain is falling harder each day
The faces keep changing
But the problem remains
Somethings wrong, people
Right before our eyes
Weve been hypnotized
The sound of silence
Broken by the sound of war
How can we heal
If we keep opening up the sore?
In the news today
I guess were in for heavy weather
In the world today
Were heading for some heavy weather
Will we ever hear the message?
Read the signs?
Stop all this talking now
Its time to save our lives
In the news today
I guess were in for heavy weather
In the world today
Were heading for some heavy...
The road ahead keeps leading back again
The train were on is coming to an end
Lets open up our eyes
In the world today
Were heading for some heavy weather
In the news today
I guess were in for heavy weather
In the news today
I guess were in for heavy weather

Today; Tomorrow
Today
It’s been five years since I have heard your voice.
Today
It’s been five years since I have heard your laugh.
Today
It’s been five years since I have seen your smile.
Today
Is the saddest day for me.
Today
I still remember like it was yesterday.
Today
I feel numb just like how I felt five years ago.
Today
I can still remember how I ran and didn’t want to stop.
Today
I still feel the emptiness of knowing I won’t ever see you again.
Today
I try and smile for you knowing that you are watching over me.
Today
I let my tears roll down slowly down my cheeks.
Today
I remember how you were so happy to be home.
Today
I still know that you didn’t have to suffer no more.
Today
I still try hard not to blame myself why you left my world.
Today
I sit here and remember the memories I have of you.
But tomorrow
I will still smile for you.

Scream
Scream
Scream at the world
For all your pain
For all your worries
For all that you lost
For all that you gained
Scream
Scream at the world
Wipe your tears away
Listen to it echo
Feel the stress
Melt away
Scream
Scream at the world
For loves found
And loves lost
For every feeling
That gets jumbled up
Scream
Scream at the world
For your horrible day
For the things that they say
For everything that
Drags you down
Scream
Scream at the world
Then let it fade away
Tomorrow's a new day
Today is a memory
No one knows what' ll happen
Scream
Scream at the world
Then look ahead
Never back
Life moves
One day at a time

Sweet Silence
Sometimes the best news is no news at all.
Then you wouldn't hear if there was war or if the stocks fall.
Today, nothing we hear of the television is good.
They tell bad news and say "they did what they could."
If we hear nothing, we assume everything is alright,
We could go to our beds and sleep tight.
How would you feel, if on the television on the wall,
You turned on the news and heard nothing at all.

In this world of today
In this world of today
Youths fight
Adults shout
Children run and lie about
In this world of today
Kids are dying
Men are fighting
But we don't hear them crying
In this world of today
News reports talk s***
But what if they lived it
Maybe they would see
In this world of today
They lie to our face
They say its ok but we know it's a race
But what if we all took it at a steady pace
In this world today
We don't know what to say
But we keep up the fight
Protest with riots cause we want all our rights

Waiting To Be Saved
I heard about this story in the news today,
About a man who lost his senses, lost his way,
About a man who had his will taken away.
He took his life but not before he made them pay.
So go on ask yourself the question
(Are you convinced that you're ok?)
Are you convinced that you're ok?
(So go on ask yourself the question)
And often times it makes you wonder...
Are we not that safe?
I heard this story about this woman yesterday,
A 27 year old teacher of 5th grade,
Kid bought a gun to school and took her life away,
The politicians placed the blame,
And nothing changed!
And I feel it today, (Feel it today)
It feels like nothing else, nothing else I am waiting to be saved.
HELPLESS!
I feel it today, (Feel it today)
It feels like nothing else, nothing else I am waiting to be saved.
So go on ask yourself the question
(Are you convinced that you're ok?)
Are you convinced that you're ok?
(So go on ask yourself the question)
And often times it makes you wonder...
Are we not that safe?
And I feel it today, (Feel it today)
It feels like nothing else, nothing else I am waiting to be saved.
HELPLESS!
I feel it today, (Feel it today)
It feels like nothing else, nothing else I am waiting to be saved.
I heard a story from the media today,
About a man who lost his senses, lost his way,
About a woman who was taken yesterday,
About the children who may never see the light of day!
And I feel it today, (Feel it today)
It feels like nothing else, nothing else I am waiting to be saved.
HELPLESS!
And I feel it today, (Feel it today)
It feels like nothing else, nothing else I am waiting to be saved.

Rescue Me
Another tragedy in the news
Someone shooting down the right to choose
It doesn't seem at all that they chose the right way
Another law I heard got passed today
Someone's trying to take my rights away
It doesn't seem to me they chose the right way
It's out of my hands but stuck in my mind in time
I find my spine is crooked in design
I want to be so much more (I wanna be so much)
Rescue me
Take this hand, by myself, alone I stand
Rescue me
From this world, from myself, before I grow old
Someone rescue me
Does anybody ever feel this way?
Does anybody have the guts to say?
way)
Who am I to say I disagree?
Who am I not to change a thing?
way)
Repeat Chorus
Here it comes again
Excuse too weak to stand on
I'm falling off
Too weak to stand on
I'm falling off
Too weak to hang on
Falling for you to catch me (catch me) (x2)
I'm afraid
That no one is changing
whos to blame?
Someone SAVE ME!!

When You Gonna Learn
Didgeridoo version written by jay kay
Have you heard the news today?
People right across the world are pledging they will play the game
Victims of a modern world, circumstance has brought us here,
Armaggedons come too near, too too near yeah
Now foresight is the key to save our childrens destiny
The consequences are so grave the hipocrites we are their slaves
So my friend to stop the end on each other we depend,
Mountain high and river deep, stop it going on,
We gotta wake this world up from its sleep,
People, stop it going on
Have you heard the news today?
Moneys on the menu in my favorite restaurant,
Now dont talk about quantity, cos theres no fish left in the sea.
Greedy men been killing all the life there ever was,
So you better play it natures way or she will take it all away,
And dont try tell me you know more than her about right or wrong,
Now youve upset the balance man, done the only thing you can,
Now my life is in your hands
Mountain high and river deep, stop it going on,
We gotta wake this world up from its sleep,
Oh people, stop it going on
Ahahahaha, hehehehehe...
Mountain high and river deep, stop it going on,
We gotta wake this world up from its sleep,
People, stop it going on
Greedy men will fade away, oh they will fade away when we stop it going on,
I know its got to be that way, oh people stop it going on!
Im asking, when you gonna learn to stop it going on?
When you gonna learn to stop it going on?

Good Day
The sky is blue but there are clouds in my head,
With big decisions looming ahead.
The sun is out but the room is so grey,
So much confusion headed my way.
Get positive, try to be gay.
News of the world, tea and biscuits in bed.
The headlines said that diana is dead.
She couldnt act much but she put on a show.
She always smiled even when she felt low.
I used to fancy her a long time ago.
So today has got to be a good day,
Today is gonna be a good day,
Today is gonna be a good day,
Good day, good day, good day.
Holes in my socks and I cant find my shoes.
Its no surprise that Im singing the blues.
So many holes in my life still to mend,
And someone just said that the worlds gonna end.
So today better be a good day,
Today is gonna be a good day,
Today has got to be a good day,
Good day, good day, good day, good day.
If we blow away the past with a bloody great blast,
Make it fast, make it fast.
So have a good day today because it could be your last,
Make it last, make it last.
Will it light up the sky?
Will it blot out the sun?
Well weve waited this long,
So it better be a good one.
Good day, good day, good day.
Yeah, its gonna be a good day.
Hey baby, if you come back home itll be a good day today.
They could drop a small atom bomb on the city today,
But if you walk through that door honey, you know itll be a good day.
And now survival is my only aim.
I call friends and see if any remain.
Who was that girl who used to be my flame?
Id call her if I could remember her name.
So today is gonna be a good day,
Today has got to be a good day,
Today is gonna be a good day,
Good day, good day, good day, good day.
Hey diana, Ive really got to learn to take a tip from you,
Put on my makeup and try to make the world take notice of you.
Yeah, its gonna be good day today.
Good day, gonna be a good day.

Fly inside
Feel me dealing
Holding on to a story just told
About a man whos the life of a funeral
Grabbing on to a woman whos soul
He just stole for a dream he dont believe in
Now she sits and she yells for a smile
Dont let the sun make me feel lonely
Oh let me in let me in let me in
Is it me
Or is it honey
We all seem to hold
To something we dont see
Is he here
Is he there
Where does he live
Some people say in the pull of a heartbeat
Some people say in the mind of a stranger
I cant explain what it is I believe in
So take your heart take your mind and escape
Is it me
Or is it honey
Is it me
Or is it honey
Is it me trying to raise your little children
Is it me trying to take your little flame
Why are you trying to steal my judgement day away
Let me scream let me scream let me scream
Dont take it away
Another day in the arms of the real thing
Another day in the eyes of a fool
I called today just to make me feel hopeless
Lie to me and Ill try to believe

Im the writer got a front page cover
Hot gossip bout whos with their latest lover
I write all chapters by the second scene
I call the shots, dont need a fleet street team
I am a writer and Im the news
You cross me you know youre gonna lose
Ill do the story if youre dead or alive
If seconds out or if youre gonna take a dive
Slip out the news or a piece of scandal
Dont toe the line, cause nothings too hot to handle
I am the writer and Im the news
If you cross me you know youre gonna lose
Yeah youre gonna lose

I am a writer and I am the news
If you cross me you know youre gonna lose
And where you are its because of me
cause overnight you know it dont come free
Ill put you up there or Ill bring you down
cause nothing moves without me in this town
I am a writer and I am the news
If you cross me you know youre gonna lose
Boy youre gonna lose I said youre gonna lose

Got to, got to lose

Sunshine In Their Eyes
A lonesome fear
A hungry face
A barren pain
A dream unchased
Oh I can't wait untill the day there's sunshine in their eyes
A prayer is heard
By one so small
Let love be in the
Hearts of all
Oh I can't wait untill there's sunshine in their eyes
You and I may never see them cry
Or wonder why the world's so cold
You feel that they're too young
To take a look around
But in their faces I can see the trouble all around
Today we must turn into lies
The truth already in their minds
Oh I can't wait untill the day there's sunshine in their eyes
He can't wait untill the day there's sunshine in their eyes
OOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO sunshine
Oh I can't wait untill the day there's sunshine in their eyes
Sunshine in our eyes
Oh my momma's worried cause she feels the world is ending
She believes that everything is coming to an end
Papa's stayin real careful cause his brother Sam was robbed
Trying to buy just a loaf of bread for baby John
See how the world escaped
All the streets turin bare
Most of the news is bad
Crime just feeds in the air
Sad is the song
Rolling along
Everything is happening
Wit is the tune
Are we all doomed?
Everything is happening
Cost of livin's up, but the pay is low and down
Hate to see the babies starve cause momma cant be found
Sister lives alone, bolts and chains the door at night
Never ever walks an alley or a shorter way
See how the world escaped
All the streets turin bare
Most of the news is bad
Crime just feeds in the air
Sad is the song
Rolling along
Everything is happening

Whos Gonna Stop The Rain
Written by carl sturken - evan rogers
(oh, oh, oh)
There is no rose without a thorn
No rain without the storm
(oh, oh, oh)
There is no laughter without tears
No wisdom without years
(oh, oh, oh)
In a world gone crazy
Torn between the roads
That we must choose
Win or lose
If every soul should lose its way
If every face should lose its name
Tell me whos gonna stop the rain?
(oh, oh, oh)
(oh, oh, oh)
(oh, oh, oh)
Each day another boy and girl
Sets foot into this world
(oh, oh, oh)
One reaches out to touch the sky
One never learns to fly
(oh, oh, oh)
Where is it written in the stone
That any child should walk alone
Out on their own?
If no one tries to end this game
Or find a way to ease the pain
Tell me whos gonna stop the rain?
(oh, oh, oh)
Whos gonna stop
The rain?
I said whos gonna stop the rain?
Hey, hey, yeah
How many rivers must we cross before we learn
That the flood is rising high
And the bridges all have burned
Each time another dream is washed into the sea
Its another piece of you
Its another piece of
Me
Oh yeah
(oh, oh, oh)
Sure as the blood runs through your veins
Sure as the falling rain, oh yeah
(oh, oh, oh)
Well taste the tears of each defeat
The bitter and the sweet, yeah, oh yeah
(oh, oh, oh)
As the days grow colder
Wonder if well ever see the sun
When winter comes, yeah
If no one stands to take the weight
If no one answers to the blame
Tell me whos gonna stop the rain?
(oh, oh, oh)
(oh, oh, oh)
(oh, oh, oh)
Whos gonna stop the rain?
If every soul should lose its way
If every face should lose its name
If no one tries to end this game
Or find a way to ease the pain
Whos gonna stop the rain?
(oh, oh, oh)
If no one stands to take the weight
If no one answers to the blame
Tell me whos gonna stop?
Whos gonna stop
The rain?

Whos gonna stop the ?

I'm sorry
I heard about the bad news today
A crowd of people around you
Telling you it's okay
And everything happens for a reason
When you lose a part of your self
To somebody you know
It takes a lot to let go
Every breath that you remember
Pictures fade away but memory is forever
An empty chair at all the tables
And I'll be seeing you when all my days boil down
But it's better where you're going anyway
I'm sorry
I heard about the bad news today
It's really hard to get through
Tough times and long days
But it really just depends on the season
For now we'll say goodbye
We know it's not the last time
I've lost the best part of my day
But it's better where you're going anyway
This is the last thing
I will remember
It's better where you're going anyway

Aint It Strange
Aint it strange that we destroy
What we embrace
And we leave
What we seek
Its such a shame
Aint it strange that we smile
When we cry
And no one knows why we are here
And where we going to
Aint it strange
We could be, we could be so good together
Aint it strange that we share what we hate
That we break what we love
Its such a shame
Aint it strange when we pray, we betray anyway
And no one knows what we are for
Why were so tough
When were so fragile
Aint it strange
Aint it strange, still we could fall into a dream, Id wish no one
Will catch that fall
For we could fall for love, life is but a dream, life is but a dream
All the tears in the world not in vain for the pain is gone, the
Shame is washed away
When were all one, life is but a dream, life is but a dream
Its hard to believe after thousands of years
The world is still drowning in blood and tears
Weve been quite advanced but again we fail
It is dog eats dog on the ratrace trail
It is getting too much and were getting nowhere
While hatred and fear is all that we share
I cant take it no more when Im watching the news
We must stick together or were bound to lose
