JAPANESE BOY
He said that he loved me, he never would go oh oh
Now I find me I'm sitting here on my own oh oh
Was it something I've said or done
That made him pack his bags up and run?
Could it be another he's found?
It's breaking up a happy home
Mister, can you tell me where my love has gone?
He's a Japanese boy
I woke up one morning and my love was gone
Oh, my Japanese boy, ooh I miss my Japanese boy
People ask about him every day oh oh
Don't know what to tell them, what can I say? Oh oh
If only he would write me or call
A word of explanation that's all
It would stop me climbing the wall
It's breaking up a happy home
Mister, can you tell me where my love has gone?
He's a Japanese boy
I woke up one morning and my love was gone
Oh, my Japanese boy, ooh I miss my Japanese boy

MTV
I hear my favourite DJ on the air
And he’s telling me that I shouldn’t care
About my headaches or my pose
Just go out there and make some noise
It’s Friday I shift into high gear
Gonna meet the boys drink loads of beer
Put my best suit on and my blue suede shoes
Add my after shave yeah I’m feeling loose
I stroll downtown kicking cans
Gonna have a night number all the dames
Follow the neon to metro
To the number one place I use to go
But there’s no one out there anywhere
They’re all at home where they all stare
They’re watching MVT all night
Have to drink alone to the morning light
I see some style-fanny on the screen
With a magic white full cancer grin
Show Coke videos over again
As he say sponsorship is a frame
And there’s no one out there anywhere
They’re all at home where they all stare
They’re watching MVT all night
Have to drink alone to the morning light
It’s alright, it’s alright, It’s alright
‘Cause I don’t wanna hang with geeks tonight
It’s alright, it’s alright, It’s alright
I hear my favourite DJ on the air
And he’s telling me that I shouldn’t care
About my headaches or my pose
Just go out there and make some noise
I stroll downtown kicking cans
Gonna have a night number all the dames
Follow the neon to metro
To the number one place I use to go
But there’s no one out there anywhere
They’re all at home where they all stare
They’re watching MVT all night
Have to drink alone to the morning light

MERCY
She crossed my way swept me off my feet
Thought I was stable guess I’m on retreat
Sorry that I’m saying this on the phone
Mercy on me baby when I’m coming home
And I know it serves me right
This suffer and pain now
Oh mercy oh mercy¨
Have mercy when I’m coming baby
Oh mercy oh mercy¨
Have mercy when I’m coming baby
Went for a drink with the boys last night
Time passed slowly so we creamed alright
Before I knew they were all gone by
And I was staring in two big brown eyes
Now I know it serves me right
This suffer and pain now
Oh mercy oh mercy¨
Have mercy when I’m coming baby
Oh mercy oh mercy¨
Have mercy when I’m coming baby
I didn’t want to, I didn’t need to
When too much juice runs through my veins
I didn’t want to, I didn’t need to
No connection between balls and brain
And I know it serves me right
This suffer and pain now
Oh mercy oh mercy¨
Have mercy when I’m coming baby
Oh mercy oh mercy¨
Have mercy when I’m coming baby

LOOKING FOR A LOVE
No I can’t, no I can’t stand up
Afraid of falling down
No I can’t can’t, no I can’t stand up
Now that you’ve left me behind, oh no
‘Cause the sound, in the total sound
I hear silence speaks your name
And the light, light, in the twisting light
Something says I gotta break away
I’m looking. Looking for a baby, looking for a love
I’m looking. Looking for a baby, looking for a love
And the time, yeah the ticking time
Is no healer only a veil
Gotta get a love, gotta find a love
That is strong and not only out on bail
I’m looking. Looking for a baby, looking for a love
I’m looking. Looking for a baby, looking for a love
Oh no
I’m looking. Looking for a baby, looking for a love
I’m looking. Looking for a baby, looking for a love

Elevator girl

ELEVATOR GIRL
I never seem to get out of here
Standing still losing my hair
Drinking myself self-esteem again
Friday night bomb rush again
Women make you stupid B.B. said
They only need to show a little tail
Don’t know why we need ‘em B.B. said
Oh yeah – a coffin’ needs a nail
Still on the floor I gotta play for breaks
A lonely life is without love
O got the keys you got paradise
Open up I’ll give you some
Elevator girl, elevator girl
Please take me on down that elevator girl
Elevator girl, elevator girl
Please trip me on up that elevator girl
It’s an uphill life I guess
Running in an uphill world
Where no one wants to fight the obstacles
Easier to walk out on love
Still on the floor I gotta play for breaks
A lonely life is without love
O got the keys you got paradise
Open up I’ll give you some
Elevator girl, elevator girl
Please take me on down that elevator girl
Elevator girl, elevator girl
Please trip me on up that elevator girl
Trip me, trip me…
Elevator girl, elevator girl
Please take me on down that elevator girl
Elevator girl, elevator girl
Please trip me on up that elevator girl

Hang around

HANG AROUND
My old man he calls me up and says when will you come around
Screaming in a microphone while you’re acting like a clown
And by looks you’re looking like ten pounds of shit
Stuck in a two-pound bag
No life to hang around
Eat bomper stickers
Hang around
Oh stop to bicker
Hi-Fi low Fi, my Fi is alright
He just like to hear some deadbeat smothered Mickey Mouse- tunes
Pointing at the telly saying, sorry son that won’t be you
Hide away let someone else pay
When you gonna stop to suck around
No life to hang around
Eat bomper stickers
Hang around
Oh stop to bicker
Hi-Fi low Fi, my Fi is alright
My old man he calls me up and says when will you come around
Screaming in a microphone while you’re acting like a clown
And by looks you’re looking like ten pounds of shit
Stuck in a two-pound bag
No life to hang around
Eat bomper stickers
Hang around
Oh stop to bicker
Hi-Fi low Fi, my Fi is alright

HOW LONG WILL IT TAKE
From midnight to six we try to talk it out
More than one time I thought you just walk out
It’s been the same through all the years
Through all the trials and the tears
How long ‘til it breaks
How long will it take, how long can it wait
How long will it take, someone to reach you
You’re spinning my head with all your ups and downs
First you get it right then you twist it back around
It’s been the same through all the years
Through all the trials and the tears
How long ‘til it breaks
How long will it take, how long can it wait
How long will it take, someone to reach you
You say one thing then want to change your mind
You take a step up then a quick step back in time
From midnight to six we try to talk it out
More than one time I thought you just walk out
It’s been the same through all the years
Through all the trials and the tears
How long ‘til it breaks
How long will it take, how long can it wait
How long will it take, someone to reach you

HOT ROD GIRL
Yeah she’s a hot rod girl they say she’s no good
Yeah she’s a hot rod girl just like in Hollywood
She’s on a highway straight to hell
And they say she’s gonna wind up dead
But she’s a hot rod girl and I wish that I could be like her
Yeah she’s a hot rod girl she’s gonna shut you down
She’s got the fastest set of wheels on this side of town
And when I see her passing by
In a whole lotta miles per hour
She’s a hot rod girl and there’s no one in the world like her
I’m gonna talk to her any day now
But I don’t know what to say
I know nothing ‘bout cars and things like that
And she don’t even like guitars
Yeah she’s a hot rod girl I like to spin her wheels
She’s a one half woman and one half machine
One day I’m gonna be her man
But she don’t even know my name
She’s a hot rod girl and there’s no one in the world like her
She’s a hot rod girl and there’s no one in the world like her
She’s a hot rod girl and there’s no one in the world like her

Can't do that

|

CAN’T DO THAT
All the girls in my hometown
Got a club where I’m oinned down as
Bad to be around, loser number one
Only hear the sound of – we gotta go now
Bitch around until they earn
A 30-second crash and burn
While I’m standing here, calling the beer
Looking like a queer now
So just because all the girls in town keep saying that I can’t dance
Oh oh oh baby it doesn’t mean that I can’t do that
Techno beat just leaves me cold
Dance in spaced up solitude
Can’t be no fun, goota be one
Wanna see the sun now
So just because all the girls in town keep saying that I can’t dance
Oh oh oh baby it doesn’t mean that I can’t do that
Oh we can drive, drive in my car
Where we can go, go really far
And we can hang, hang in my room
Where we can bang, bang until we bloom
So just because all the girls in town keep saying that I can’t dance
Oh oh oh baby it doesn’t mean that I can’t do that

SPEAK THE SAME LANGUAGE
Searching high and low for that perfect girl
Everyone I know got that perfect girl
Every now and then I’m in that whirl
Always turns out to be a blow-off girl
And ‘round and around and around it goes
Searching high and low for the all-time high
Everyone I know got the all-time high
Doesn’t seem I ever will find miss right
Seems like all I do is crash and fight
And ‘round and around and around it goes
Will it stop no one knows
‘Round and around and around we play
Gotta keep moving any old way
Speak the same language but still we don’t
Speak the same language but still we don’t
Speak the same language but still we don’t
Speak the same language but still we don’t
Searching for a high only find a low
Chasing down the rainbow for a pot of gold
Gotta keep thinking she’s out there for me
Can’t stand drowning in misery
So ‘round and around and around it goes
Will it stop, no one knows
‘Round and around and around we play
Gotta keep moving any old way
Speak the same language but still we don’t
Speak the same language but still we don’t
Speak the same language but still we don’t
Speak the same language but still we don’t
We gotta go now, we gotta go now
I wanna know now, I wanna know now
I wanna show now, I wanna show it to you
So ‘round and around and around it goes
Will it stop, no one knows
‘Round and around and around we play
Gotta keep moving any old way
Speak the same language but still we don’t
Speak the same language but still we don’t
Speak the same language but still we don’t
Speak the same language but still we don’t

ALL IN THE WAY
She’s looks cool by the Coke machine (I can see she stinks of pop yeah)
With her red jacket and razor cut jeans (I can see she stinks of pop yeah)
And I’m timing her every move (I can see she stinks of pop yeah)
She’s looks cool by the Coke machine (I can see she stinks of pop)
Yeah I looked at it every way I can but my friends says she’s out of my league
But I’ll take my time, I wait in line, ‘cause it all comes down
And it’s all in the way, all in the way she moves
And it’s all in the way, all in the way she moves
She’s looks cool by the Coke machine (I can see she stinks of pop yeah)
Something within and under her skin (I can see she stinks of pop yeah)
Shining though the face of that girl (I can see she stinks of pop yeah)
She’s looks cool by the Coke machine (I can see she stinks of pop)
Yeah I looked at it every way I can but my friends says she’s out of my league
But I’ll take my time, I wait in line, ‘cause it all comes down
And it’s all in the way, all in the way she moves
And it’s all in the way, all in the way she moves
I’ve been in the thick of it now for far too long
I got money but she don’t even wanna throw a God damn bone
And all I can do is hang around waiting (it’s all in the way, it’s all in the way)
Yeah I looked at it every way I can but my friends says she’s out of my league
But I’ll take my time, I wait in line, ‘cause it all comes down
And it’s all in the way, all in the way she moves
And it’s all in the way, all in the way she moves

WHEN YOU WALK IN THE ROOM
I can feel a new expression on my face
I can feel a glowing sensation taking place
Even my guitar seem to go out out of tune
Every time that you walk in the room
I close my eyes for a second and pretend it's me you want
Meanwhile I try to act so nonchalant
I feel a summer's night with a magic moon
Every time that you walk in the room
Maybe it's a dream come true
Standing right alongside of you
Wish I could tell you how much I care
But I only have the nerve to stare
I can hear there’s something happening with my brain
Just anytime that someone speaks your name
Lovely sound I hear from the blue
Every time that you walk in the room
Every time that you walk in the room
Every time that you walk in the room
