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

Secrets
Written: stock aitken waterman
1a:
Still dont know how he got my number
Thought Id got him out of my life
But I agreed to see him just one time
Never thought Id fall for him twice
1b:
Ohh, youve gotta hear my confession
I believe its long overdue
I cant think of living without you
Id understand if thats what youd wanna do
Chorus:
There are
Secrets that you never know
Secrets in a private room
Secrets that I kept from you
Pillow talk in the afternoon
2:
Never wanted to hurt you
Didnt really want to deceive
I was so afraid if I told you
Your broken heart would force you to leave
I think I knew what I was doing
By falling into his arms again
I wish Id seen right through him
But Im telling you cos Im so ashamed
Chorus:
(repeat 2 times)

Losing My Mind
“I think...”
I thought
but I had no sooner
thought the thought
than it claimed
independence from me.
“Thought is free! ”
it shouted in ringing Shakespearean tones.
I acted
at once
imprisoned it
in some deep dank dark dungeon
at the back of my mind
knowing that
if it succeeded
in seceding from me
& gained autonomy
that other thoughts
would come
(one upon one)
until they eclipsed
me in a wink
think me
out of existence.
I put down
the rebellion
with extreme
prejudice
but now find
I have inaugurated
Guerrilla warfare
as thoughts
snipe at me
blow up the bridges
of consciousness
that I think
into being.
I feel myself
weakening
and fear becoming
a prisoner
in my own
mind
kept in chains
(mentally speaking)
by the Thought
Police
and what
I am
thinking
of trying not to
think.

Im Every Woman
Whatever you want
Whatever you need
Anything you want done baby
Ill do it naturally
Cause Im every woman
Its all in me
Its all in me
(chorus 1): Im every woman
Its all in me
Anything you want done baby
I do it naturally
(chorus 2): Im every woman
Its all in me
I can read your thoughts right now
Every one from a to z
I can cast a spell
Of secrets you can tell
Mix a special brew
Put fire inside of you
Anytime you feel danger or fear
Instantly I will appear, cause
(chorus 1)
Oh, I consent your needs
Like rain on to the seeds
I can make a rhyme
Of confusion in your mind
And when I comes down to some good old fashioned love
I got it
I got it
I got it, got, got it, baby, baby, baby
(chorus 1 & 2)
I aint braggin
Cause Im the one
Just ask me
Ooh, and it shall be done
And dont bother
To compare
I got it
Im every woman (repeat till fade)
Im every woman (repeat till fade)

Here I Am
(norman sallitt)
Here I am playing with those memories again
And just when I thought time had set me free
Those thoughts of you keep taunting me
Holding you, a feeling I never outgrew
Though each and every part of me has tried
Only you can fill that space inside
So theres no sense pretending
My heart its not mending
(chorus)
Just when I thought I was over you
And just when I thought I could stand on my own
Oh baby those memories come crashing through
And I just cant go on without
On my own Ive tried to make the best of it alone
Ive done everything I can to ease the pain
But only you can stop the rain
I just cant live without you
I miss everything about you
(chorus)
Just when I thought I was over you
And just when I thought I could stand on my own
Oh baby those memories come crashing through
And I just cant go on without
Go on without
Its just no good without you

Fire And Rain
Just yesterday morning they let me know you were gone
Suzanne the plans they made put an end to you
I walked out this mornin' and I wrote down this song
I just can't remember who to send it to
[chorus]
I've seen fire and I've seen rain
I've seen sunny days that I thought would never end
I've seen lonely times when I could not find a friend
But I always thought that I'd see you again
Won't you like down upon me Jesus
You gotta help me make a stand
You just got to see me through another day
My body's achin'and my time is at hand
I won't make it any other way
[chorus]
I've seen fire and I've seen rain
I've seen sunny days that I thought would never end
I've seen lonely times when I could not find a friend
But I always thought that I'd see you again
Been walkin' my mind to an easy time
My back turned towards the sun
Lord knows when the cold wind blows it'll turn your head around
Well there's hours of time on the telephone line to talk about things to come
Sweet dreams and fine machines in pieces on the ground
[chorus]
Oh I've seen fire and I've seen rain
I've seen sunny days that I thought would never end
I've seen lonely times when I could not find a friend
But I always thought that I'd see you baby, one more time again
Thought I'd see you one more time again
There's just a few things comin' my way this time around
Thought I'd see, thought I'd see you...

Heard Somebody Cry
(I thought I heard somebody cry--
I though I heard somebody cry)
I went to see what I could find
Like flowers in the dead of night
Like shadows in the moonlight--
I though I heard somebody cry
A choir with a single voice--a picnic on a cliff
Antenna like an insect--to pick up all your thoughts
Chorus
It isnt true
I am not the ghost
Without a soul . . . come
Listen to my heart
You feel the beat . . . stop
Listen to the sound
Of moving feet . . . walk
Through the halls at night
When Im asleep
I dont believe . . .i dont believe
The shoe is on the other foot--the glove is on the fist
The first is like a cannonball--but it feels like a kiss
I got a bed thats real soft--in a room thats always sad
I thought I heard a window sigh--
I though I heard somebody cry
Chorus
A choir with a single voice--a picnic on a cliff
Antenna like an insect--to pick up all your thoughts
I sip the running water--like rivers from your eyes
I thought I heard somebody cry--somebody might be lost
I thought I heard somebody cry--somebody might be lost
I thought I heard somebody cry--i thought Id go and see
I thought I heard somebody cry--somebody might be me

Before I Met You
(charles l. seitz, joe lewis, elmer rader)
Well I thought I had seen good looking men in my time
That was before I met you
And I never saw one that I wanted for mine
But that was before I met you
Chorus:
Well I thought I was swinging the world by the tail
I thought I could never be blue
I thought Id been kissed
And I thought Id been loved
But that was before I met you
Well I wanted to ramble and always be free
That was before I met you
And I said that nobody could ever hold me
But that was before I met you
Repeat chorus
I thought Id been kissed
And I thought Id been loved
But that was before I met you
Darling that was before I met you

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

I'm looking for cracks in the pavement...

What Are You Gonna Do
When you are alone,
You come back cryin and you want to go home;
For someone forgettin it seems
Like youre lettin it take you away from me.
Was your idea to pack up and go.
You said you had no life of your own.
Movin in was not too hard to do.
Ya got second thoughts; youre gonna have to choose.
Chorus:
What are you gonna do ?
Forget about your mother and think about you.
For someone forgettin it seems
Like youre lettin it take you away from me.
Told you all the secrets that were mine.
The good things that I picked up overtime.
Wont accept the reason why youre here;
Talk things out; overcome the fear.

The Last Time
Now its the last time to remember what you said to me
And Im the last person in the world I thought Id be
And now its high time to be something bigger than we are
Its never too late to reverse a thing thats gone too far
(1st chorus)
And I think the whole worlds laughing at us
But I dont care, thats not the point
Theres so much more
Theres so much more than meets the eye
Oh, when youre around Im blind
Now its the last time to leave the shadows far behind
And its the last time to clear the cobwebs from our mind
And its the last time to bury all our memories
And its the last time before everything just fades away
(2nd chorus)
And I wish that you were here with me
And I wish that somehow things would change
Youd lose your fear of me
And I feel that things might be okay
Oh, wouldnt that be strange
Now its the last time to reconsider what weve done
And its the last time to start all over from day one

Hung Up On Your Love
By lamont dozier
I was ready to take a chance,
I found myself a new romance.
Then you call that same old night,
Always change my mind.
Oh no, not again.
Oh no, not again.
Just when I thought it was over, you come back
And Im hung up on your love again.
Just when I thought I was free, you come back.
Now Im hung up on your love again.
Just as I was doing good,
You come back, just to prove you could.
Things will always be the same,
With me the victim of the game.
Oh no, not again.
Oh no, not again.

Wonder why Im alive

Jon lind & brock walsh
I think that the worst is through
Im almost over you
I guess it was just a matter of time
Ive started going out
How long can anybody go without
Before you start goin out of your mind
Even so, I confess
There are times when my heart rules over my head
(chorus)
Every now and then
I find myself wondering about you baby
Seems now and again
I cant escape the thought of all that
Might have been
Every now and then
Mornings the hardest time
I wake up dreamin bout you and i
Some days I cant remember them all
Evenings are painfull still
I cant help wondering if they always
Will be
I cant help noticing this emptiness-
Baby
I dont cry, every night
Just the ones when I feel like I feel tonight
(chorus)
Every now and then
I find myself wondering about you baby
Seems now and again
I cant escape the thought of all that
Might have been

When Im alone anytime I hear music play
When I reach, reach for the phone
Why does everything good
Make me think of you baby

Might have been
