1.Still Life
(修改)
There's a picture in the hall, I know
And it's from a time when feelings showed
Though I hold it close before my eyes
My heart refuses to see
Loving you could have been, oh so easy
But there is something you don't understand
Through the times when two were one completely
There was another in this well laid plan
This corridor seems to stretch for years ahead
But patient hearts cannot match times steady tread
Is this the threshold of a fantasy?
Is there still life at all?
Loving you could have been, oh so easy
But there is something you don't understand
Through the times when two were one completely
There was another in this well laid plan
Best laid plan of ours

Watering the garden, some comfort for the twilight years
Still, life never lingers, it marches past our veil of tears
A moment's all we've got, to have and to hold
Don't slip, don't blink, don't turn your head
With a photographic memory
I could live in a time that used to be
Is this the threshold of a fantasy?
Is there still life at all?
Loving you could have been, oh so easy
But there is something you don't understand
Through the times when I was won completely
There was another in this well laid plan
Loving you could have been, oh so easy
But there is something you don't understand
There was a time when I was won completely
Our emotions they got out of hand
2.Stay at Home
(修改)
Outside these, four walls lies, anarchy babe
Unnatural acts and sights abound
Glass glaring, eyes staring, young pairing, maybe
What does the world care if I'm not around
Cos, I think I'd rather stay at home
With people I know
I could watch the whole thing on TV
And the neighbours never know
The bright lights, are like traps, for the unwary
You need a guard just to walk at night
Fights flaring, bombs scaring, pants tearing, maybe
How can you say it will be alright
And, I think I'd rather stay at home
And my face not show
I could watch the whole thing on TV
And the neighbours never know, they'd never know
Cos, I think I'd rather stay at home
Where cold winds don't blow
I could watch the whole thing on TV

And the neighbours never know, they'd never know
Outside these, four shores lie, countries of strangers
They have water that you shouldn't drink
Bad driving, crime thriving, life's full of dangers
It's not that I'm frightened to walk on the brink.
But I think I'd rather stay at home
With people I know
I could watch the whole thing on TV
And the neighbours never know, they'd never know
Think I'd rather stay at home
Where the bad guys never go, they never go
Stay at home
With people you know, people you know
Think I'd rather stay at home
Where the pimples never show, they never show
Stay at home
Stay at home

3.Hard Luck Story
(修改)
Don't ask me to love my neighbour
Cause I don't love the man
Don't ask me for my favours
I won't lend a hand
And if I had real power
Then I could disappear
Wouldn't have to be around you
I'd sink into the atmosphere
Then I wouldn't hear
Your hard luck story
It's a hard luck, a hard luck story
Don't ask me to tip the waiter
For he is underhand
I can tell he is a woman hater
And he is a nasty man
Within reach lies all desire
For each and every soul
Stripped bare and stretching higher
You fall into the last balck hole
To end your hard
Hard luck story
It's a hard luck
Hard luck story
Don't ask me to pray to Jesus
I've never met the man
I only meet weekend preachers

Pictures of the promised land
All the new holy saviours
Who pretend to understand
Who do you think will save you
Modern day beggar man
Such a hard luck
Hard luck story
It's a hard luck
Hard luck story
It's such a hard
Hard luck story
It's a hard luck
Hard luck story
Don't ask me to love my neighbour
Don't ask me to tip the waiter
Don't ask me to pray to Jesus
He picked his time to leave us
It's a hard luck
Hard luck story
It's a hard luck
Hard luck story
It's a hard luck story
Hard luck story
4.Giving Up
(修改)
If there should be the faintest traces
Of you in my summer sky
My heart would pound and race
And people ask me why
Did I pull those funny faces
When I walk by the waterside
I look for things to say
And still I find you
I won't give up
Don't talk of giving up
And every night I swear I've finished
And when I rise to face the day
Resolve just fades away
And so it follows
Trying to find strength of purpose
I place temptation out of reach
Then search in every niche
Until I find you
I won't give up
轉載來自 ※Mojim.com 魔鏡歌詞網
Don't talk of giving up
I won't give it up--Love this world
No thoughts of giving up oh no no no no no
Perhaps its only saints who suffer
For those needs to which we're slaved
This roaad Iwalk is paved with good intentions
The final choice hangs on a wire
And there's no room for feet to stray
The piper waits for pay
And still I find you
I won't give up
Don't talk of giving up
I won't give up--Love this world
No thoughts of giving up oh no no no no no
I won't give it up--Love this world
Don't talk of giving up
I won't give it up--Love this world
No thoughts on giving up
5.Sail to You
(修改)
Now there is this place
With so much space
It's at the bottom of the world
So it lay unspoiled
Wind and rain, hurricane
And the blackman reigned
Till the white man came
They sailed to you
Sail to you
People talk there
And they talk here
About the new world
They say its the last frontier
But its so one dimension
I feel apprehension
And you can't disguise
The condescension
I sail to you
I sail to you
Dear old England had a mind
轉載來自 ※Mojim.com 魔鏡歌詞網
Around that time
'Cause they had a few problems with
The rising crime
Wouldn't lose our head
If you stole a loaf of bread
You got a one way ticket
To Australia instead
I don't know why, I don't even try
To work out all of the reasons why
Well its like a drug--gets in the blood
Calls me back and thats enough
I fly to you
Fly to you
I don't care and you don't care
All I know thats its there
Breath the air into my lungs
And pray that doomsday never comes
Sail to you
Sail to you

6.Children on Parade
(修改)
All the girls and boys have gone away
They never really had much to say
They took off all their clothes and their shoes
Politely asked to be excused
They're the children on parade
They have a secret they can share
They're the children on parade
And nobody knows
And nobody knows
All the broken toys lie on the floor
There's no more laughter from down the hall
Mirror, mirror, mirror on the wall
Whatever could have happened to them all
They're the children on parade
轉載來自 ※Mojim.com 魔鏡歌詞網
They have a secret that they share
They're the children on parade
And nobody knows
And nobody knows
All across the world just yesterday
All the boys and girls just went away
They left without their clothes or their shoes
I'd love to someday hear all the news
About the children on parade
And all the secrets that they share
Now they're the children on parade
And nobody knows...

7.Snakes and Ladders
(修改)
I could stand but I don't like the feeling
I could fall but I'm always on the floor
You could make a million staring at the ceiling
ou could break your back and still be poor
One for the liar
One for the cheat
One for the man who you'll never meet
Piece of the action and a portion of pie
They'll be there waiting when your big chance comes by
There's a snake on top of every ladder
Who will tell you that he's your best friend
Everyone important needs an adder
But subtraction gets you in the end

One for the liar
One for the cheat
One for the man who you'll never meet
Piece of the action and a portion of pie
They'll be there waiting when your big chance comes by
They don't care they don't mind
The in-betweens will steal you blind
I don't know I can't say
It seems its always been this way
You won't feel or complain
The gentle leech will cause no pain
8.Maria
(修改)
Maria was born in the country
She loved her homeland
Maria was from a poor family
For their girl they had greater plans
Across the sea not yet twenty
Sailed our Maria, a man to see
Perhaps marry dreams our Maria
This was to be eventually for our Maria
Maria made plans for the future
Sh had sons to her man
Maria grew sad as the years passed
She did not understand
You must believe me
Though its not easy, trust in me
My life's been wasted
There's nothing sacred I can see
Though we're together
轉載來自 ※Mojim.com 魔鏡歌詞網
It seems we've never known the way
These lives we started
Now broken hearted everyday
Maria works in the factory
She makes shoes for the man
Maria lives for her family
Now she does what she can.
Hold on to me
Hold on to me Maria
For this was to be
A tragedy for our Maria
Oh Maria don't you cry
Oh Maria dry your eyes

9.Everything I Need
(修改)
Moving up and down and from side to side
With so many things to do
I want to go again I want another ride
This time should see it through
We never realised as the years rolled by
No we never really had a clue
But we knew one day we'd come alive
And in the end there's me and you
My babe, she gives me everything
She gives me everything I need
When the winter comes and the cold sets in
As this city's prone to do
They forecast heavy seas and gale force winds
that's really nothing new
轉載來自 ※Mojim.com 魔鏡歌詞網
When I'm falling down
Deeper than the underground
My thoughts race back to you
Again and again
My babe, she gives me everything
she gives me everything I need
And if you think us fools
And you criticize
Then my friend the joke's on you
My babe, she gives me everything
She gives me everything I need.
10.Man With Two Hearts
(修改)
Like a man who has two hearts
Both of them worlds apart
Both of them play their part you know
Like a man who has two wives
His life the becomes alibis
Nobody asks him why you know
Can there be peace
Between the heart and the brain?
No release always the same
I won't come here again
Like a man who has one hand
Still he does what he can
Shows he is twice the man you are
Are we just beasts
轉載來自 ※Mojim.com 魔鏡歌詞網
With our burdens of pain
No release always the same
Cut off my legs
Torture and maim
I'm back here again
Like a man who has two hearts
One day they fell apart
Both of them played their part you know
Can there be peace
Between the heart and the brain
No release to try is in vain
Stories repeat always the same
I won't come here again.
