Why Dont You Read The Book

Dont talk to the pilot
When hes flyin
Dont smile at the soldier
Hes on parade
Dont come creeping round, youll
Catch me cryin
No more talkin bout it
Its all been said
You drawn such a fine line baby
Learnin all the rules
Why dont ya read between them sometimes
You wont look such a fool
Why dont you read the book, why dont you read the book
Why dont you read the book, why dont you read the book
Why show all your aces
To the gambler
If he calls your hand
Youre gonna lose
Dont trust first impressions
Of a stranger
Private informations
Just tellin tales
* you draw such a fine line baby
Learnin all the rules
Why dont ya read between them sometimes
You wont look such a fool
** why dont you read the book, why dont you read the book
Why dont you read the book, why dont you read the book
Repeat *
Repeat **

I read a book

I read a book
Not to enhance my looks

I read a book
Maybe to avoid being a crook

I read a book
Not just to learn how to cook

I read a book
To ascertain how to defend my rights
Not just to acquire knowledge
Reading a book I pledge,
Is one of the roads to the light

I read a book
To understand how a kings territory
Is defended with pieces such as the rook

I read a book
So there will be no questions asked
When I count correctly what you took

I read a book
So that I play not ignorant
Now on life I’ve a different outlook

I read a book
So if I come up with all the right answers
I will know for sure it is not merely a fluke

Waste

Dont want to be an actor pretending on the stage
Dont want to be a writer with my thoughts out on the page
Dont want to be a painter cause everyone comes to look
Dont want to be anything where my lifes an open book
A dream its true
But Id see it through
If I could be
Wasting my time with you
Dont want to be a farmer working in the sun
Dont want to be an outlaw always on the run
Dont want to be a climber reaching for the top
Dont want to be anything where I dont know when to stop
A dream its true
But Id see it through
If I could be
Wasting my time with you
So if Im inside your head
Dont believe what you might have read
Youll see what I might have said
To hear it
Come waste your time with me
Come waste your time with me
So if Im inside your head
Dont believe what you might have read
Youll see what I might have said
To hear it
Come waste your time with me
Come waste your time with me
Come waste your time with me
Come waste your time with me
Come waste your time with me

Go Away

Well I think of you when I fantasize
The best I ever had
And I think of you when Im drivin
Myself completely mad
(why dont we go)
Why dont we go away?
(why dont we go)
Why dont we go away?
Walkin on the footbridge
High above the clouds
Listenin to your yesterday
Didnt make a sound
Dazzled by your sweet lips
Touchin on me
Here comes trouble
Cant you see?
(why dont we go)
(why dont we go)
Why dont we go away?
(why dont we go)
(why dont we go)
Why dont we go away?
Well I think of you when I dramatize
The things we never did
And I think of you when Im flyin
Or when Im feelin just like a kid
(why dont we go)
(why dont we go)
Why dont we go away?
(why dont we go)
(why dont we go)
Why dont we go away?
(why dont we go)
(why dont we go)
Why dont we go away?
(why dont we go)
(why dont we go)
Why dont we go away?

Read My Lips

Words and music: doug johnson, mike reno, neil shilkin
Here you come again, lookin for another thrill
With your lipstick, high heel shoes, lookin like youre
Dressed to kill
Tattoo stuck on you, branded by a chosen few
What short memory, now its time to pay your dues
Dont you hear a word I say?
Just turn your head and look this way
And read my lips
Read my lips, listen to me, Im talkin to you
Read my lips
Read my lips, Im tellin you, Im through with you
I know where you go when you need to get some
Bad little actress on a mattress, its seduction
Anything for you
You dont hear a word I say
So turn your head and look this way
And, read my lips
Read my lips, listen to me, Im talkin to you
Read my lips
Read my lips, listen to me, youre history
Ive been watching what you do
And it doesnt take a fool
To see what weve been through
Oh, gonna turn the page on you
(guitar solo)
You dont hear a word I say
So turn your head and look this way
And read my lips
Read my lips, listen to me, Im talkin to you
Read my lips
Read my tips, oh, Im through with you
Read my tips
Read my lips, listen to me, Im talkin to you
Read my lips
Read my lips, listen to me, youre history
Oh yeah, read my lips
I said, read my lips
Read my lips
Just read my lips

Eye In The Sky

(lead vocal - eric woolfson)
Dont think sorrys easily said
Dont try turning tables instead
Youve taken lots of chances before
But Im not gonna give anymore
Dont ask me
Thats how it goes
Cause part of me knows what youre thinkin
Dont say words youre gonna regret
Dont let the fire rush to your head
Ive heard the accusation before
And I aint gonna take any more
Believe me
The sun in your eyes
Made some of the lies worth believing
Chorus:
I am the eye in the sky
Looking at you
I can read your mind
I am the maker of rules
Dealing with fools
I can cheat you blind
And I dont need to see any more
To know that
I can read your mind, I can read your mind
Dont leave false illusions behind
Dont cry cause I aint chnaging my mind
So find another fool like before
Cause I aint gonna live anymore believing
Some of the lies while all of the signs are deceiving
(chorus)

Behind The Lines

I held the book so tightly in my hands,
I saw your picture, heard you call my name
There was something strange, I could not look away
I wanted to be there, I wanted to go
You gave me no warning
You gave no reason
But I was with you
Right by your side
Just give me the strength, and I will help you
And they can try their hardest, cos they dont frighten me
It is written in the book
It is hotter than Ive known before, but I feel so cold, and I dont
Know why
But if the fire within your heart can beat the storm
Then I really believe, you could make it right
Ooh the time has come now
We must show our feelings
But Im looking right through you
And your heart is empty
Whatever happened to you its too late to change now
Theres nowhere you can run to, no place to hide
Ah you let me down!
...but wait a minute, I dont understand
Its getting stronger, so grab my hand
Dont wanna leave you, dont wanna go
But Im losing all control
Cant you see me? Im slipping away
I can only stay if youve the will to keep me here
It is written in the book
Oh so many times since Ive read those words
Just waiting to see you, can you see me?

Was It Something I Said

Was it something I said
Or something you read
Is changing your mind
Is turning you around
Is somebody wrong
And somebody right
What was it made up your mind
What could change overnight
And if all of your friends
Who used to be mine
Come down off the fence
And swear that youre fine
I can hate you no more
I cant even the score
Almost half of my life
Just fell right on the floor
Dont you come round here no more
Dont you waste my time
Dont you dare to phone me
Dont even have me on your mind
Was there someone you now
Who wont let you go
Their pushing you under
And bleeding you slow
They dont want your time
They wont give you mine
Their hands in your pocket
And your hearts on the line
Im know Im not perfect
I wanted to be
I have this big mouth
It always contradicts me
You say you dont know
I say anything goes
But if you think its over
Then this you should know
Dont you come round here no more
Dont you waste my time
Dont you dare to phone me
Dont even have me on your mind
Was it something I said
Or something you read
Is changing your mind
Is turning you around
Is somebody wrong
And somebody right
What was it made up your mind
What could change overnight
Was it something I said
Or something you read
Is changing your mind
Is turning you around

Me & You

If I could be two places at one time
Id be with you
Ive lost my heart Im losing half my mind
But I dont care
Dont tell me dont ask me dont talk at all
Dont help me I dont know if I can stand
The bitter-sweetness of it all
I dont know I dont care dont even hear
What they all say
Theres no past theres no future and no fear
What can they do
Im helpless I cant talk or even stand
My heart wont start until I get from you
The look that says you love me too
Me and you against the world
Ive read the Bible and those books at school
But they dont make much sense of this
The finest minds are calling me a fool
But you destroy them with your kiss
Just one kiss

Come On Nature

Come on nature, I dont want to read a book or talk about the world
Come on nature, I just want to spend some time being boy to the girl
Come on nature, let me show the way that Ive been feeling all along
Come on nature, just because I dont feel weak dont mean I feel so strong
Ive been known to ask a few more favours than I should of you
And in time Im sure Ill still want things that you could never do
If she wasnt mine, if I was stepping out of line,
But shes mine and Im in line and shes the best Ive ever seen
Come on nature, let me show the way that Ive been feeling all along
Dark brown hair, green eyes and white skin
You perfect every colour that shes in
Come on nature, I dont want to read a book or talk about the world
Come on nature, I just want to spend some time being boy to the girl
Her and me, I could be complete if you could let it be
My desire, is to stretch myself inside her bodys fire
If I stumbled in then I could say that I had been to the
Chamber where your greatest work of art was on display.

Dont You Know

Dont ya know, dont ya know
That it hurts to be treated like a fool?
A dont ya know, dont ya know
That its mean and its oh so cruel?
When you said you were home
It was just a lie
You were seen on the town
With another guy
Gonna break my heart in two
Oh baby dont ya know?
A dont ya know, dont ya know
That your cheatins breakin us apart?
A dont ya know, dont ya know
That youll tear my soul apart?
Why must you go foolin round every other boy
And just push me away like a broken toy
Baby feel so bad inside, oh baby dont ya know?
(instrumental)
Oh dont ya know, dont ya know
Its a foolish thing that you do?
A dont ya know, dont ya know
It could easily turn on you?
cause they say its a game only one can play
And you might be the one to get hurt someday
It could be your turn to cry
Oh baby dont ya know?
Oh dont ya know oh oh baby

My Flash On You

I dont wanna be in your company,
I dont need you take care of me,
Let me long, let me long, let me long, wont you let me be,
cause all I want in this world is to say Im a man as we,
People talk about the way I look,
I think that all the things they say have got enough to write a book,
But dont they know, dont they know, dont they know, its a waste of breath
cause I dont want to be like them I just want to be myself
Woke up !
Dont try and push your ? ? ? trust my way,
cause baby I lose my soul and thats where is gonna stay
You try to put them down on the ground, anywhere, that you choose
Get your kids from your fist cause baby this time, you gonna lose
Woke up !

Monday Papers

I dont want to go out any more
I read the news, I cant believe my eyes
I push the table against the door
You know Ive had it with the world outside
If you want to know about the murderers and junkies
If you want to know about the lower east side
Now they got a map shows you where to get your monkey
You can read it in the monday papers, monday papers
Some people like a little gore
Some people always at the scenes of crimes
Now they can watch the tv more
Now they can get it in the sunday times
If you find it hard to handle what you see on page one
You can pull the funnies out and have some laughs
Take a drink and maybe you can laugh at ronald reagan
You can read it in the monday papers, read it in the monday papers
Monday papers dont ask no questions
Monday papers dont get no lies
Monday papers dont raise objection
Monday papers dont got no eyes
Brothers heading that way now I guess
He just read something made his face turn blue
Well I got nothing against the press
They wouldnt print it if it wasnt true
If you want to know about the gay politician
If you want to know how to be a star
Ladies - if you want to know about the new sex position
You can read it in the monday papers, read it in the monday papers
Monday papers dont ask no questions
Monday papers dont get no lies
Monday papers dont raise objection
Monday papers dont got no eyes
Monday papers dont ask no questions
Monday papers dont get no lies
Monday papers dont raise objection
Monday papers dont got no eyes

Sunday Papers

Mother doesnt go out any more
Just sits at home and rolls her spastic eyes
But every weekend through the door
Come words of wisdom from the world outside
If you want to know about the bishop and the actress
If you want to know how to be a star
If you want to know about the stains on the mattress
You can read it in the sunday papers, sunday papers
Mothers wheelchair stays out in the hall
Why should she go out when the tvs on
Whatever moves beyond these walls
Shell know the facts when sunday comes along
If you want to know about the man gone bonkers
If you want to know how to play guitar
If you want to know about the other suckers
You can read it in the sunday papers, read it in the sunday papers
Sunday papers dont ask no questions
Sunday papers dont get no lies
Sunday papers dont raise objection
Sunday papers dont got no eyes
Brothers heading that way now I guess
He just read something made his face turn blue

If Youre Not Gonna Love Me Right

(m.seward)
Hey, oh
Hey yeah
Hey baby, hey baby
The phone is ringing
And Im running late
Ive no time to get it
coz Im expecting you at eight
Heard your voice on the message
Im surprised you called
Said youre all tied up
And you aint comin at all
If youre not gonna love me right
Baby dont love me at all
Youre just gonna make me crazy
If youre not gonna love me right
Baby dont love me at all
If youre not gonna love me right, oh
(baby dont love, baby dont love me)
At all
(baby dont love, baby dont love me)
At all
Another box of roses outside on my porch
Twelve long excuses none of them stop the hurt
Wheres this going, do you really care?
Is this real love, I dont know anymore I swear
If youre not gonna love me right
Baby dont love me at all
Baby dont make me crazy
If youre not gonna love me right
Baby dont love me at all
If youre not gonna love me right, yeah

If youre not gonna love me right

Baby just make me crazy
Baby, I want you here
If youre not here it makes me feel like
I cant trust you
You make me crazy if you really love me
You see
Oh, I get confused when you hold me next to you
I wanna go further, oh baby yes I do
I just cant hold on to something that wont last
So wed better slow down, and maybe not go so fast
Maybe not go so fast
If youre not gonna love me right
Baby dont love me at all
Youre just gonna make me crazy
(if youre not gonna love me right)
If youre not gonna love me
Baby dont love me, baby dont love me, baby dont love me
If youre not gonna love me right

But I dont like you, I dont like you, I dont like you

Cant you get it thru your head
Youre not my friend
And Ive tried to be nice but now Im not going to lie
So I suggest you leave before I make you cry, bye

I like to know that youre hated, it makes me smile

The Life Of

What a life
to lie on the beach every day
just soaking up the sun
life is so perfect
but not much fun

I dont have to work
or shop for food
i dont have a hubby
or a sceaming brood

I dont listen to music
and i havent read a book
i dont do the washing
and i dont have to cook

I never have to pay for any atire
i just lie in the sun and perspire

Powders and perfume i never need
scents and shampoo will just never do

cars and insurance dont interest me
me in a bikini you will never see

so give a thought if you think lifes hell

for me on the beach
and the life of a sea shell

Were All Light

And I wont take from you
Dont you know
bout a zillion years ago
Some star sneezed, now theyre paging you in reception
Dont you know
Jack and jill-ion years ago
Some dinosaur dropped the pail when it saw our reflection
Dont you know
Were all light
Yeah, I read that someplace
Dont you know
Were all light
Yeah, I read that someplace
So you wont mind if I kiss you now
Before indecision can bite
Dont you know in this new dark age
Were all light
Dont you know
At your fingertips arrayed
Theres a universe of atoms that thinks youre real something
Dont you know
Just a couple of lips away
Theres an revolutionary bean-feast whose insides are jumpin
Dont you know
Were all light
Yeah, I read that someplace
Dont you know
Were all light
Yeah, its a bumper sticker someplace
So you wont mind if I kiss you now
We may hear the angels recite
Dont you know in this new dark age
Were all light
And I wont take from you what you cant take from me
And Ill leave nothing here that you cant use upon your trip
And I wont take from you what you cant take from me
And Ill leave nothing here but love and milk a plenty for your tea
Dont you know
Upon the pillion of times bike
We roar onto the stage and too soon were dead center
Dont you know
Buffalo bill-ions raised his sight
Hes picking up the whole herd as soon as we enter
So you wont mind if I kiss you now
And maybe come on in for the night
Dont you know in this new dark age
Were all light
Were all light
And I wont take from you
What you cant take from me
And I wont take from you
(you know where you itch, is a little tiny switch, and if you let
Me in, I can show you just the pin, that you put in the slot and the
Element gets hot, and the stuff just pours out)
And I wont take from you
What you cant take from me
(all were light)
(kiss me now, kiss me now)
And I wont take from you
What you cant take from me
And I wont take from you
What you cant take from me
