Stars Of Warburton
I, I was, I was shaken down in a toy town
He, hes out there
You know its kennedys shadow from white cross to michigan
Atms, are in the air, oh yeah machines they are spinning out everywhere
The speaker is speaking
Can you hear the sound
The listener is listening as he hits the ground
The medium or the message but theres no one around
I couldnt believe
I couldnt believe the stars of warburton were waiting for me
We were dancing, we were dancing on the plain
Were looking through the window didnt see any buffalo there
We got our pipe dreams, they went up in smoke dreams
Burn it clean in the climate control, of your hypermark malls
Dont wanna talk about elvis presley
Dont wanna see his white shoes walking around
And around and around over here
The press barons acting up the mainframes are down
Newspapers crawling around on the ground
The medium or the message still theres no one around
I couldnt believe
I couldnt believe the stars of warburton were waiting for me
Over the hills and mountains we go, so far, so far away
For the ring of the axe on the ironbark, for the smell of the wallaby stew
From the golden reefs to the sandstone cliffs
Came the sheep of the mallee plain
The wind blew the soil to the orient, well be shouting to the skies again
I couldnt believe
I couldnt believe the stars of warburton were waiting for me
I couldnt believe
I couldnt believe the stars of warburton were living in me
Raining down on me, were washing down on me
(moginie/garrett)

I Just Couldnt Say No
Written by randy owen, teddy gentry, and greg fowler
Youve got me achin more than I should
My heart is breakin, oh dont it feel good
cause I know for certain, were magic in love
Youve got me hurtin, cause I cant get enough
I just couldnt say no even though I should
Even if I did, wonder if you could
I just couldnt say no when your eyes say yes, yes
I just cant say no, Ive tried my best
The way you tease me makes me want you more
You purr like a kitten but I hear you roar
Your body language is talkin to me
Right here in the darkness, its so plain to see
I just couldnt say no even though I should
Even if I did, wonder if you could
I just couldnt say no, no, when your eyes say yes, yes
I just cant say no, Ive tried my best, I just couldnt say no
I just couldnt say no, no, when your eyes say yes, yes
I just cant say no, Ive tried my best
I just couldnt say no, Ive tried my best
I just couldnt say no

Just Couldnt Wait
I miss her face, but the girl left seven years ago.
Guess I never shouldve let her go.
Thats how I feel because I love her so.
But Im afraid that she will never know.
She just couldnt wait, she said she couldnt wait til some day.
She just couldnt wait, my baby just couldnt wait, no.
She said she couldnt wait til some day, til some day.
Oh, tell me now, where do the broken-hearted go from here.
You missed her love and now youre steering clear.
I aint afraid of nothin but my fear.
The fear that she might see this rollin tear.
She just couldnt wait, she said she couldnt wait til sunday.
She just couldnt wait, my baby just couldnt wait, no.
She just couldnt wait, my baby just couldnt wait, no.
Oh she couldnt wait til sunday no, til sunday.
She just couldnt wait, my baby just couldnt wait, no.
She said she couldnt wait til sunday.
She just couldnt wait, my baby just couldnt wait, no.
She said she just couldnt wait.
You know she just couldnt wait, no.
She said she couldnt wait til sunday, til sunday.
Oh, oh...

Heart Away
(robin wilson)
Heres a little something that I brought here for you
It aint much but it might just do
Fairly serious could hardly say
That I couldnt give my heart away
I couldnt give my heart away
Its never enough to feel and say
Throw my promises away
Several things that I could do
But I couldnt give my heart to you
I couldnt give my heart to you
Smokes on the table the matches are lost
Theres room in the back of the bar
Fairly serious could hardly say
That I couldnt give my heart away
I couldnt give my heart away
Aw, its not really serious but I should prove
That I dont mean what I might not do
Not that you wanted it anyway
But I couldnt give my heart away
I couldnt give my heart away...

Heaven Is One Step Away
By eric clapton
We searched all through the night.
I couldnt find it; you couldnt find it.
I knew something wasnt right.
I couldnt find it; you couldnt find it.
And they say heaven is one step away.
Heaven is one step away.
And then there came the dawn:
I couldnt find it; you couldnt find it.
I just had to carry on.
I couldnt find it; you couldnt find it.
Chorus
We didnt leave till a quarter to three.
All your friends, they were laughing at me.
I dont get it, I dont understand;
Who is that man holding your hand?
First verse
Chorus
Heaven is one step away.
Heaven is one step away.
Heaven is one step away.
Heaven is one step away.

Thought I Couldnt Dance
Stand back, and give me room
And listen to that beat
I got the music in my soul
And the rhythm in my feet
When I hear the music,
You wont catch me standing still
And I wont miss a beat
I never have and I never will
And you thought I couldnt dance
And you thought I couldnt dance
I can dance to anything
That any band can play
Ive got old-fashioned values
But Im pretty up to date
And I know all the latest hits
On the radio
You dont have to join me
Stand back and watch my show
And you thought I couldnt dance
And you thought I couldnt dance
Thought I couldnt dance
Hey, watch me prance
Lets make romance
Thought I couldnt dance
You gotta take a chance
If youre gonna learn to dance
And you thought I couldnt dance
And you thought I couldnt dance
Theres a lot of closet dancers
Just dyin to come out
They dance alone inside their rooms
With the music way up loud
And I know you thought I couldnt dance
But I guess I sure fooled you
It just goes to show you never know
Whos wearing dancin shoes
And you thought I couldnt dance
Im full of surprises
And you thought I couldnt dance
Its too late now
I cant slow down...cant slow down
Oh, feel the heat
From these dancin feet... cant slow down
And you thought I couldnt dance
And you thought I couldnt dance
Repeat...

Killing Time
Who is counting sleepless nights
Who is counting letters I meant to write
I said who is counting at all
If you are
I look pretty small
But no matter what I do
If I couldnt call you mine
If I couldnt be with you
Id just be killing time
You went searching for me in the night sky
And when I burned away you wondered why
Well Ill tell you babe I could not bear to stall
I fell too fast I fell too far
But no matter what I do
If I couldnt call you mine
If I couldnt be with you
Id just be killing time
Big big fishes in little ponds
Ive seen them walk around with magic wands
But no matter what I do
If I couldnt call you mine
If I couldnt be with you
Id just be killing time
There aint no magician hidden inside of me
So no matter what you hear I hope you see
That just when Im trying to be tall
Thats when I end up looking pretty small
But no matter what I do
If I couldnt call you mine
If I couldnt be with you
Id just be killing time
No matter what I do
(and you know I will burn)
If I couldnt be call you mine
(like a star in the sky)
If I couldnt be with you
(all Id be doing is)
Id just be killing time
But no matter what I do
If I couldnt call you mine
If I couldnt be with you
Id just be killing time

Heads Were Dancing
You talked me into the game of chance.
It was 39, before the music started,
When you walked up to me and you said,
Hey, heads we dance.
Well, I didnt know who you were
Until I saw the morning paper:
There was a picture of you
A picture of you cross the front page.
It looked just like you, just like you in every way.
But it couldnt be true.
It couldnt be true.
You stepped out of a stranger.
They say that the devil is a charming man.
And just like you I bet he can dance.
And hes coming up behind in his long
Tailed black coat dance,
All tails in the air.
But the penny landed with its head dancing.
A picture of you, a picture of you in uniform,
Standing with your head held high,
Hot down to the floor.
But it couldnt be you.
It couldnt be you.
Its a picture of hitler.
He go do-do-do-do-do
He go do-do-do-do-do
He go do-do-do-do-do--
Do you want to dance?
Well, I couldnt see what was to be,
So I just stood there laughing.
A picture of you, a picture of you in uniform,
Standing with your head held high,
Hot down to the floor.
But it couldnt be you.
It couldnt be you.
Its a picture of hitler.
He go mmh-mmh-mmh-mmh-mmh
He go mmh-mmh-mmh-mmh-mmh
He go mmh-mmh-mmh-mmh-mmh--
Heads were dancing.

Cant Get Much Better
Words and music:: paul dean, steve tracey, todd carney, taylor rhodes,,
Mike perodeau
Its been a long time in the makin
We always knew that we could reach this place
Sometimes its hard to find a reason to run
Well still be standin at the end of the race
Nobody said it would be easy
Sometimes its hard to keep your dreams alive
Its so close we can taste it, counting the nights
With my eyes wide open, for the power drive
We will rock, we wont stop
Better get ready, cause ready or not
So hold on, to what we got, hold on
Burn down to the ground, we got a volatile situation
Were gonna rock tonight, were gonna get it right
Cause it couldnt be better
Burn down to the ground, were gonna violate our probation
Were gonna rock tonight, were gonna get it right
Cause it couldnt be better
It couldnt be better
It cant get much better than this
Oh no, it cant get much better
Oh no, it cant get much better than this
Why dont you meet me after midnight
Were gonna ride that electric high
Its now or never, and the time is right
Turn up the power, well split the sky tonight
We will rock, we wont stop
Better get ready, cause ready or not
So hold on, to what we got, hold on
Burn down to the ground, we got a volatile situation
Were gonna rock tonight, were gonna get it right
Cause it couldnt be better
Burn down to the ground, were going to violate
Our probation
Were gonna rock tonight, were gonna get it right
Cause it couldnt be better, it couldnt be better
It cant get much better than this
Oh no, it cant get much better
Oh no, it cant get much better
(solo)
Burn down to the ground, we got a volatile situation
Were gonna rock tonight, were gonna get it right
Cause it couldnt be better
Burn down to the ground, were going to violate
Our probation
Were gonna rock tonight, were going to gel it right
Cause it couldnt be better
It couldnt be better
It cant get much better than this
It cant get much better
It cant get much better
It cant get much better
It cant get much better than this

You Couldnt Be Cuter
You couldnt be cuter
Plus that
You couldnt be smarter
Plus that
Intelligent face
You have a disgrace-
Ful charm
For me
You couldnt be keener
You look so fresh from the cleaner
You are the little grand slam
Ill take to my fam-
Ily
My ma will show you an album of me thatll bore you to tears
And youll attract all the relatives we have dodged for years and years
And what will they tell me?
Exactly, what will they tell me
Lets say you couldnt be nicer
Couldnt be sweeter
Couldnt be better
Couldnt be smoother
Couldnt be cuter, baby, than you are
My ma will show you an album of me thatll bore you to tears
And youll attract all the relatives we have dodged for years and years
And what will they tell me?
I know just what they will tell me
Theyll say you couldnt be nicer

What If We Give It Away?
On the outside underneath the wall
All the money couldnt buy
Youre mistaken no ones standing there
For the record no one tried
Oh I try to
What if we give it away?
Overlooking with a hollow eye
Whats pretending is it right
Eye for order a hand for whats in line
Couldnt follow couldnt write
And our life does fine here
Stitch it on your tie here
Heres the trailer tom
A year has come and gone
Were not moving was it right
Take the order sew it on your tie
We couldnt follow couldnt try

Opportunity Nox
Well, I like you, I couldnt think of anything but you
For a week I was in love with your hairdo
I couldnt chew those muffins I used to
I knew I was way over the moon
When I met you, when I met you, I didnt know what to do.
When I saw you, when I saw you you said:
Ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh
Im living in a box but Im out when opportunity nox...
Ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh
Im living in a box but Im out when opportunity nox...
Ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh
Im dying in a box but Im out when opportunity rox on
Im sleeping and Im dreaming so solo
I saw you in the crowd in the front row
You couldnt get it right in the disco
Youre dancing so much better in slo-mo
When I met you, when I met you, I didnt know what to do.
When I saw you, yeah, when I saw you, I said:
Ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh
Im living in a box but Im out when opportunity nox...

As Sure As I Am
Make your decision now
Rely on no help from above
Living is luxury
I want everything you throw out
Ill do anything you want to
Please let me go with you
Ill wear the smile on your face
Big, black and beautiful
I want it, everything you throw out
There must be something you can do with out
cos I am as sure as I am
I couldnt cae less
For what might go wrong
And Im as happy as sin
In a fear shaken world
I pity the rhino
Down there its becoming extinct
Killed for a love potion
Sad thing looking like a dead flower
I want it, everything that you throw out
cos I am as sure as I am
I couldnt care less
For what might go wrong
And Im as happy as sin
In a fear shaken world
Dont wanna be there
Dont wanna be spared
Ill wear the smile on your face
I am as sure as I am
I couldnt care less
For what might go wrong
And Im as happy as sin
In a fear shaken world, world,
Couldnt care less

Dont come after

Please dont follow me along
When you read this Ill be gone
Ask the mountains
Springs and fountains
Why couldnt this go on?
Couldnt our happiness go on?
Ask the sun that lightens up the sky
When the night gives in, to tell you why
Ask the mountains
Wild woods, highlands
Ask the green in the woods and the trees
The cold breeze coming in from the sea
Springs and fountains
Ask the mountains
Springs and fountains
Ask the mountains
Springs and fountains
Ask the mountains
Springs and fountains
Ask the mountains
Ask the sun that lightens up the sky
When the night gives in, to tell you why
Tell the mountains

Your Gone
God gave me one heart
but its broken
god gave me two eyes
but i wish i couldnt see
god gave me to feet
i wish i could just leave
god gave me two hands
but i wish i couldnt feel
god gave me one brain
but i wish i couldnt think
god gave me my memories
but i wish i couldnt remeber
god gave me you
but i wish i never wouldve lost you
god took you away
and i wish you were still here
god gave me life
when i wish i didnt have it
god gave me all these things but the only one i wanted
he took away

A Story
There was a girl who couldnt speak,
Who couldnt speak her mind.
Only thing she was good at
Was telling stories of faraway lands.
There was a guy who couldnt say,
Who couldnt say what he wanted.
Only thing he was good at
Was cracking jokes to make people laugh.
So many words he swallowed,
So many thoughts she kept to herself.
And when they met they made love
And talked about the world and the weather.
So many cities he walked,
So many countries she traveled.
And in their dreams they would listen
To the sound of the sea they heard together.

Say It Isnt So
Theres no santa claus
It was all a lie
No man in the moon
Just a big light in the sky
I hear disneyland
Might lose mickey mouse
In some giant hostile corporate shake-up
Tell me its a nightmare
Please wake me up
(say it isnt so)
I found a book of matches
]from someplace weve never been
How come you hang the phone up
The minute I walk in
Last night I had this dream
That I was losing you
I woke up in a cold sweat shaking
Rescue me my heart is breaking
Chorus:
Say it isnt so (tell me its not true)
Say it isnt so (I believe in you)
Tell me its a lie (I dont need no proof)
They did it all with strings say everythings alright (couldnt be, not
You)
Say it isnt so
Superman dont fly
Elvis presley died
They deep fried the king
Like some tacky cheesy bathing beauty
Dancing on the beach in a bad b-movie
Chorus 1:
Say it isnt so (tell me its not true)
Say it isnt so (I believe in you)
Tell me its a lie (I dont need no proof)
Say everythings alright (couldnt be, not you)
Chorus 2:
Say it isnt so (dont give up on me)
Say it isnt so (dont give up on you)
Get me through the night (well make it through)
Make everything alright (couldnt be, not you)
Say it isnt so..

Never Be Anyone Else But You

Therell never be anyone else
But you for me
Never ever be
Just couldnt be
Anyone else but you
If I could take my pick of all
The boys Ive ever known
Then Id come and pick you out
To be my very own
Therell never be anyone else
But you for me
Never ever be
Just couldnt be
Anyone else but you
A heart thats true and longs for you
Is all I have to give
All my love belongs to you
As long as I may live
Therell never be anyone else
But you for me
Never ever be
Just couldnt be
Anyone else but you
I never will forget the way you kissed me
And when were not together
I wonder if you miss me
For I hope and pray the day will come
When you belong to me
Then Im gonna prove to you
How true my love can be
Therell never be anyone else
But you for me
Never ever be
Just couldnt be
Anyone else but you
Never ever be
Just couldnt be
Anyone else but you
