The chain 02:43
lyrics

The chain Chorus Break the chain We know you're ready so it's time to change Turn the page Change your costume and take the stage Verse 1 Wake up in the morning and kiss the wife Go to the office, it's a boring life Look out of the window at the world outside Life's like a train and you're just there for the ride Verse 2 Go out in the evening to see the show You dream you're in the spotlight and inside you know That one day you could make it you just need to try But deep inside you realise that you're far to shy Middle 8 Break the chain, put on the greasepaint and take the stage The crowd are cheering as you take your place Then you're performing and you've found your fame But it's all dreams until you break the chain Chorus Break the chain We know you're ready so it's time to change Turn the page Change your costume and take the stage Verse 3 Wake up in the morning and the memories fade Go to the office just to earn your pay Look out the window the world's a stage But deep inside you know you're not that brave Chorus Break the chain We know you're ready so it's time to change Turn the page Change your costume and take the stage

Sun worship 02:56
lyrics

Sun worship I hear the music of the ancient ones Singing their tributes to the moon Dancing round the stones until the morning comes Hoping that it doesn't come too soon I see the wiches at their cauldron fire I hear them chanting charms and spells I smell the potions as the flames grow higher I see but I will never tell I feel the magic in the air I see the flowers in their hair I feel the power but I'm not scared Though all my senses scream beware I hear the throbbing of the mighty drums Marking the passage of the night I see the druids as the morning comes Chanting their magic and their might I feel the magic in the air I see the flowers in their hair I feel the power but I'm not scared Though all my senses scream beware And though these images are in my dreams And though the ancient days are gone I'll turn to face the east midsummers day To pay my homage to the sun To pay my homage to the sun....

Soldiers of steel 03:34
lyrics

Soldiers of Steel In this green and pleasant land Through the towns and countryside March an army of steel soldiers Half a mile with every stride Marching through the countryside Brutal structures with no appeal Mile by mile, stride by stride An invading force of wire and steel Flowing through the fields and forests Power coursing through their veins A cavalry of skeletal warriors Holding tight their horses reigns Marching through the countryside Mile by mile, stride by stride Middle 8 A greedy world with no conscience An insatiable appetite for more power This monster demands more and more Another field, another tower With no regard to pleasing form Function is their only goal A platoon of saluting sentries Standing still while on patrol Marching through the countryside Brutal structures with no appeal Mile by mile, stride by stride An invading force of wire and steel Marching through the countryside Brutal structures with no appeal Mile by mile, stride by stride An invading force of wire and steel Wire and steel

The girl with the deep blue eyes Have you seen the girl with the deep blue eyes Looks from her window, looks from her window Sees your soul and sees your lies Looks from her window, looks from her window Can't tell from her face if she's happy or sad Have't worked out if she's good or bad She fills up my dreams with her deep blue stare She's always around but she's never there I'd give all that I have just to see her smile As she looks from her window, looks from her window With her deep blue stare that can see for miles Looks from her window, looks from her window Her whole life is a mystery I wish she would share it with me She fills up my dreams with her deep blue stare I look in her eyes see a universe there girl with the deep blue eyes girl with the deep blue eyes girl with the deep blue eyes girl with the deep blue eyes She sits there all day just looking around And she looks so fine She's just the girl with the deep blue eyes I want to make her mine Have you seen the girl with the deep blue eyes Looks from her window, looks from her window Sees your soul and she sees your lies Looks from her window, looks from her window Her whole life is a mystery I wish she would share it with me She fills up my dreams with her deep blue stare I look in her eyes see a universe there girl with the deep blue eyes girl with the deep blue eyes girl with the deep blue eyes girl with the deep blue eyes

Looking at the rain 02:04
lyrics

Looking at the rain Stare out of the window looking at the rain Eyes shine like diamonds and cant conceal the pain Time to go walking a creature of the night Time to go stalking, a time to take another life Moves so fast no shadow cast Reflections none, heartbeat gone Vision clear a cause for fear Eternal youth but here's the truth So much was promised when she took my life Together for ever with my imortal wife And now we sleep together in a grave so cold Taking no pleasure in watching all our friends grow old It's in my head when you're all dead I'll need new friends it never ends I wanted more but deasth's a bore I get no sleep and so I'll keep Looking at the rain

Imaginary friend 03:04

My imaginary friend When we were young we played out in the sun You couldn't part the two of us although we looked like one You'd always sit beside me when we came in for tea You'd never eat your sandwiches you gave them all to me Though no one ekse can see you you're always by my side You're my imaginary friend I know that you were with me though people said I lied About my imaginary friend When we were young we played out in the rain Splashing in the puddles well all kids are the same Our clothes all torn and dirty from climbing up the tree But though we were together they're only blaming me As we grew older we also grew apart I made some other friends though it was very hard I couldn't talk to you then althouygh it made you sad They would have called me crazy they would have called me mad And now I'm getting older still I'm all alone again I want you back beside me my very special friend It seems I'm talking to myself but I know that you're there The people call me crazy but I don't care

Murder most foul 03:43
lyrics
buy track
Sun shining down on the grounds by the boating lake Tea on the lawn quite well worn by the gardeners rake All is bright and all is cleans but hidden just behind the scene You’ll find a place where a case gives your face a look of fear Stuck in a rut ‘til a knife in the gut makes it quite clear it’s murder Life is so great village fete on the bowling green Off to the pub for some grub to complete the scene Please enjoy your ploughman’s lunch it won’t be long I’ve got a hunch Some random bloke starts to choke on his coke with the arsenic in Once not alive the detective arrives and the case begins it’s murder Outline in chalk spoils the walk but the talks of the scandal here Though she’s quite new there’s a few with a view that she’ll disappear Within the houses of the rich there’s much to make the curtains twitch Man dressed in whites has a fight puts out lights with a cricket bat Everyone lies but they’ve got alibis though it’s obvious that One of the cast is too fast and won’t last past the second act And by part three we can see mystery has turned to fact But the twist in the plot means the man we forgot fired the shot for murder.

Upside down Since I met you baby I'm up and down All the night and day I'm just running round Working up a sweat till I think I'll drown You're turning me upside down One minute you're off and the next you're on One minute you're there and the next you're gone Wanna wear a smile but I've got a frown Cos you're turning me upside down You're turning me upside down You're turning me upside down You make me laugh, you make me cry I wanna live, I wanna die We're supposed to meet but you can't be found You just leave me hanging around You're turning me upside down You're turning me upside down Don't think I can take any more of this Hanging round hoping for a little kiss Hear that you've been running all over town You're turning me upside down Wanna love you baby but you make it tough Can't go on like this I've had enough Wanna be together and settle down but You're turning me upside down You're turning me upside down You're turning me upside down You make me laugh, you make me cry I wanna live, I wanna die We're supposed to meet but you can't be found You just leave me hanging around You're turning me upside down You're turning me upside down.... Since I met you baby I'm up and down All the night and day I'm just running round Working up a sweat till I think I'll drown You're turning me upside down You're turning me upside down You're turning me upside down You're turning me upside down You just keep me haanging around

Keep calm 03:03

Every little thing Every little stress Don't let it make Your life a mess Go and take a walk Make it nice and slow Look all around Stop and say hello Relax don't worry There's no hurry Keep calm, stay cool Let your head rule Knocking back the beer Going out at night Crawling round the bars Don't get in a fight Put away your fists Put away the knife Try and step away Time to save your life Relax don't worry There's no hurry Keep calm, stay cool Let your head rule Middle 8 Be good, be kind Don't let your anger rule your mind Think long, think hard Don't want an early visit to the graveyard Guitar In a heatwave Don't get too hot If you wear a tie Loosen the knot Open up the valve Let out all the steam Sit out in the shade And have an ice-cream Relax don't worry There's no hurry Keep calm, stay cool Let your head rule Relax don't worry There's no hurry Keep calm, stay cool Let your head rule

One two three 02:12

One two three Once I was walking out by the running river I met a man sitting under a tree I sat down beside him and shared all my food and water These are the words he said to me Thanks for your kindness It's much appreciated Here in return is a gift from me Follow the path till you come to the little cottage Knock on the door one two three I followed the path just as he indicated Came round the bend and in front of me Was a door made of oak in the front of a little cottage I knocked on that door one two three I heard keys and latches turning and sliding open I wasn't quite sure who I would see As the door opened I heard footsteps run behind me A bang on my head and stars I see |I woke with a start in a room full of total darkness Feet bound and hands tied behind me But whoever it was who had hit me and put me in here Could not tie knots so I broke free So if you go walking out by the running river And see a man sitting under a tree Just walk away and if you find a little cottage Don't go knocking one two three One two three

The pain never fades Verse 1 Do you remember me Do you remember me Do you remember me I remember you Chorus The pain…. What you did, what you said, I remember clearly Do you know, do you care, how your words hurt me …never fades Verse 2 What you told me That winter’s day Your lips formed words I knew what they’d say Chorus The pain…. What you did, what you said, I remember clearly Do you know, do you care, how your words hurt me Middle 8 …never fades …never fades …It never fades …It never fades Guitar solo over chorus Verse 3 Our journey together Was nearing the end But only one heart broken Never to mend Modified double chorus The pain…. It could have worked out for us, but you didn’t try You wouldn’t or couldn’t even look me in the eye What you did, what you said, I remember clearly Do you know, do you care, how your words hurt me …never fades

A Soupcon of Nothing I woke up in the morning I had a bad feeling That nothing was going right I spent the whole day just a wheeling and a dealing But money it was still tight Chorus My life had become a terrible fight I'll tell you man I had to do something To find the recipe that's right A whole lot of love and a soupcon of nothing By the end of the day I've got to go drinking Cos you can't have work without play Saw you across the room and it's got me thinking That something's going to go my way Chorus I saw the future in your smile I'll tell you baby you've really got something I came across and we talked for awhile About love and a soupcon of nothing By the end of the night we'd made a connection Even a blind man could see The look in your eyes full of love and affection I knew you were the one for me Chorus I see the future's looking bright I'll tell you baby you've really got something We've got the recipe that's right A whole lot of love and a soupcon of nothing

Conspiracy theory They say it's all just in your head Lights over area 51 But someone shot the president dead A grassy knoll with a smoking gun People loved by me and you Celebrities spouting crazy views You don't believe it but it might be true Russians spreading their fake news Won't you listen to my conspiracy My conspiracy theory It's all around you if you look Easy to see but hard to prove Cameras hidden in every nook The government watching your every move It's on the web so it must be true The CIA starting a civil war I've seen what some people can do I don't know what to believe any more Course we all know they put LSD in the water supply I saw it with my own eyes there was Nessie large as life Ah you know there's a big bunker under the Rocky Mountains Most people think Doctor Who is fiction but actually it's a documentary The Chinese govenment transmit the Covid virus using 5G Did they send a man to the moon Can noone sing without autotune Do the illuminati rule the world Is the answer the DaVinci code They say it's all just in your head......Won't you listen to my conspiricy theory Lights over area 51 But someone shot the president dead A grassy knoll with a smoking gun People loved by me and you......Won't you listen to my conspiricy theory Celebrities spouting crazy views You don't believe it but it might be true Russians spreading their fake news It's all around you if you look......Won't you listen to my conspiricy theory Easy to see but hard to prove Cameras hidden in every nook The government watching your every move It's on the web so it must be true......Won't you listen to my conspiricy theory The CIA starting a civil war I've seen what some people can do I don't know what to believe no more

King and warrior What do you look for standing on the cliffs so stilly Who do you wait for who do you love Wait for a husband a king and a warrior Wait for a lover long gone from your bed Can't you hear the sound of battle Borne upon the wind so softly Can't you hear the warriors Mourning for the dead Wait for a husband a king and a warrior Wait for a lover long gone from your bed Standing on the cliffs so stilly can't you see the sails a billow Is he there the one you wait for is he there the one you love Wait for a husband a king and a warrior Wait for a lover long gone from your bed There he lies within the longboat warriors surround his head Pale faced husband, king and warrior. Pale faced lover dead

Pleasant blues I get this feeling that's hard to explain I get this feeling again and again My knees are all a quiver I get a strange buzz in my brain I get the strangest feeling when you are by my side Drives me insane, Drives me insane Went to see the doctor but he could find no ill I went to to see the doctor but he prescribed no pill I went to see the teacher to see if I could learn To free my will To free my will He recommended reading of poetry and prose but I'm ill still Yeah I'm ill still If I can't find the answer I'm not sure I'll survive The effect you have on my is messing up my life My friends have tried to help me but say it's only right If I can't find the answer I best make you my wife Been to see the pracher prayed to the sky above But I don't think praying is helping me enough I even tried a drinkin but drinkin doesn't seem to cure this stuff There's only one conclusion it's obvious to me That I'm in love That I'm in love That I'm in love

Words Trying to decide if this love is real Trying to express just how I feel Written the tune but here's the deal I just need some words I want to write it down so you will see That there's real feelings between you and me But I don't have the vocabulary I just need some words I want to tell you how you make my heart Beat a little faster when the music starts And how I feel so anxious when we're apart I just need some words I've tried to write it down but it seems a mess I could have said it better I will confess But lack of words don't mean I love you less I just need some words You make me happy, you make me sad You take my breath away You make me laugh you make me mad I don't know what to say If I have a problem you make it right In my darkest hour you provide the light I want to tell you how I want to hold you tight I just need some words I've written it down so you will see Just how much you mean to me But I'm noit sure of the vocabulary I hope you like these words...of love

The ghost of your mind Creeping about Into the night Getting a thrill From giving you a fright Shrouded in black Far from the light Into the night Into the night Creeping around Your thoughts at night Getting delight From giving you a fright You make a likely target And I’m staying out of sight Walking close behind you And giving you a fright Into the night Into the night Into the night Into the night Hidden deep within your psyche Looking out from my lair Stepping out suddenly Touching your hair Giving you a scare Creeping about Into the night Getting a thrill From giving you a fright
