Are you a song ? No im an ad
to buy the cd.... its realy fab!
Is that a taxi? no its an ad
for power tools to buy your dad
are you a famous actress? no shes an ad
for this anti ageing cream you need to have
are you my childs toy? no im an ad
to drive him crazy for the latest fad
& a thousand spinoffs he ll want to have
are you Christmas? no im an ad
for the biggest sales weve ever had
is that a naked woman? no shes an ad
she sells the lot she drives em mad
you want it all
you want it now
& you must have it
I ll show you how

So Much Better

I know you think I’m not your type
You only see me as a friend
You think there’s not that much to me
But maybe you should look again
‘Cause I’d be so much better for you
You could be so much happier
You’ll find I’m so much better than her
I’ll make you happy
I’ve seen you looking kind of bored
I think you’re holding out for more
Just cast your eyes in my direction
What are you waiting for?
I would be so much better for you
You could be so much happier
You’ll find I’m so much better than her
I’ll make you happy
She never holds your hand
And you seem kind of sad
And you’re arguing over the smallest thing
Surely, surely it’s got to end
I would be so much better for you
You could be so much happier
You’ll find I’m so much better than her
I’ll make you happy

Guilty

Playing truth or dare
I take the truth
Get asked a question
I really don’t want to answer
Try to change my mind to dare
But she won’t let it go
She really wants to know
I guess I just feel guilty
I don’t really want to think about it
Can’t bring myself to tell the truth
So come up with a tale
I make up on the spot
I can’t lie convincingly
My face gives me away
But she lets it go
I guess I just feel guilty
Though it happened so long ago
Why’d you keep on asking me?
Don’t ask me anymore.
She gets me on my own
And wants to know it all
I can’t keep it to myself
When she’s pushing me for answers
So I tell her what happened
I made a wrong call
And I kissed the wrong girl
And I wish it wasn't so
I guess I just feel guilty
I don’t really want to think about it
No-one found out at the time
I felt I got away with it
But it's always really been there
It's too late to make amends
And doesn't matter anyway
Bygones all gone by
I guess I just feel guilty
Though it happened so long ago

Do the Twist (My Ankle)
01:36
|

Do you wanna dance with me?
Do you wanna dance with me?
I’ve got two left feet?
Do you wanna dance with me?
I can’t mash potato
I prefer them fried anyway
Left feet, I got 2 of them
I can’t do the twist
I just do the twist my ankle

Too Deep

I see you walking by
I smile and said hi
You walk on past without acknowledging me
You like to play aloof
And I always act the fool
But you seem to have gotten under my skin
I don’t know why
I even want you
But I can’t help myself
Can’t think of anything else
I catch myself daydreaming
Can’t stop these feelings
When I see you my palms get sweaty
My head gets giddy, my breathing heavy
Oh, oh, I’ve fallen too deep
I know you’ve no intention
Of showing me affection
The more you push away the closer I want to be
And somewhere in my mind
It’s just a matter of time
Until you realise you want to be with me too
I don’t know why
I even want you
But I can’t help myself
Can’t think of anything else
I catch myself daydreaming
Can’t stop these feelings
When I see you my palms get sweaty
My head gets giddy, my breathing heavy
Oh, oh, I’ve fallen too deep

Amazing Feeling
01:28

I walk out of the dressing room
Run onto the stage
Out into the blinding spotlights
Smiling all the way
It’s an amazing feeling
Amazing feeling
Singing, playing, laughing, swaying, never, ever feeling prouder
Dancing, jumping, screaming, crying, on the chorus, shouting louder
At the end of the last song
We try to leave the stage
Calls for more tell us that we ain’t
Going anywhere
It’s an amazing feeling
Amazing feeling
Singing, playing, laughing, swaying, nerves are gone, there’s not a trace, yeah
Dancing, jumping, screaming, crying, Tina’s solo melts your faces
It’s an amazing feeling
Amazing feeling
Singing, playing, laughing, swaying, never, ever feeling prouder
Dancing, jumping, screaming, crying, on the chorus, shouting louder

The sunset lowered himself in the bath
the sea washed the day away like dirt
the breeze put on a silk tie
the sky put on a crisp new shirt
The evening chose her diamond necklace
strung it across the darkening sky
the night wore a black dress
the moon was a mascara'd eye
beneath a mirror ball moon
they danced thru the sparkly air
the sea swam the coast of her chalk white thigh
the dawn light in his hair
his kiss started the planets revolution
her touch woke the animals & trees
a million years of evolution
from the warmth of their bodies
