01) A.U.
Hey you come outside, I'm fed up with you looking like the cat who got the cooking. I said hey you, you and me outside. You've got the kind of face, the face of a git and I really want to hit it. I said hey you, you and me outside. Coz I've been watching you, chatting up all the girls. And I'm fed up with you and I've drunk enough.
Someone's gonna get a slap tonight! Someone's gonna get whacked tonight! Someone's gonna get a smack tonight from me and it's gonna be you!
Hey you, you look like a poof, how loud do I shout it ? Tell me what you're gonna do about it ? Hey you, you and me outside, you're a bloke who's heading for one. A real fist magnet if ever I saw one. Hey you, you and me outside. I saw you kiss that girl over in the corner. It's not jealousy, it's just you and me.
Someone's gonna get a slap tonight! Someone's gonna get whacked tonight! Someone's gonna get a smack tonight from me and it's gonna be you!
You've got too much dosh, you're everything I hate. You talk all posh, you make me so irate. You're so cock sure, you're a liability. I told you before, it's not jealousy. It's not jealously, it's just you and me!!
Someone's gonna get a slap tonight! Someone's gonna get whacked tonight! Someone's gonna get a smack tonight from me and it's gonna be you!
Someone's gonna get a slap tonight! Someone's gonna get whacked tonight! Someone's gonna get a smack tonight from me and it's gonna be you!
Someone's gonna get a slap tonight! Someone's gonna get whacked tonight! Someone's gonna get a smack tonight from me and it's gonna be you!
Someone's gonna get a slap tonight! Someone's gonna get whacked tonight! Someone's gonna get a smack tonight from me and it's gonna be you!
02) Before the flame dies
People say that life ain't fair and then they say what you give comes round the same. What can you believe ? I say if you want passion in your life you can't be afraid of pain, you've got to get out and live. Coz freedom's a curse but boredom's even worse, there's a spirit inside that needs to fly.
Oi, Oi, Oi is the call! Oi, Oi, Oi, do it all! Oi, Oi, Oi before the flame dies!
Don't give in, don't compromise, that's what I'm told by everyone I know don't sit on the fence. While others say just take your time, don't rock the boat, keep moving with the flow, it's just not making sense. Coz life is all you've got, it's worth another shot stand or fall, but give it one more try.
Oi, Oi, Oi is the call! Oi, Oi, Oi, do it all! Oi, Oi, Oi before the flame dies!
You can crawl on your belly for a lifetime, never reaching for the sky just knocking at the door. Or stand up for an hour, all guns blazing, let 'em know you'd rather die than take it anymore.
When all around is going wrong and nothing seems to fall right into place, remember every word. Don't believe everything that's said you must believe there's just too much to waste, be sure you're always heard. Coz freedom's a curse but boredom's even worse, there's a spirit inside that needs to fly.
Oi, Oi, Oi is the call! Oi, Oi, Oi, do it all! Oi, Oi, Oi before the flame dies!
Oi, Oi, Oi is the call! Oi, Oi, Oi, do it all! Oi, Oi, Oi before the flame dies!
Oi, Oi, Oi is the call! Oi, Oi, Oi, do it all! Oi, Oi, Oi before the flame dies!
Oi, Oi, Oi is the call! Oi, Oi, Oi, do it all! Oi, Oi, Oi before the flame dies!
03) Tart
There's something we both know, you're meant for me but even so. If I offered you the chance, you'd probably still say no. I've got to get it through to you, you know you really want me to. You've ignored me from the start, you stuck-up two-faced tart.
You can't fight fate, I should ask you for a date. I know some day you'll come for me, but I just can't wait. You're really messing me about, when I come in you're going out. It should be tearing me apart, you stuck-up two-faced tart.
You'll fall in love with me I guarantee, I've had enough of your lies and your abuses! Me, I'm your destiny, I don't want any more hair-wash excuses!
It's oh, so sad, it's driving me mad. What's wrong with me, I ain't that bad. I can't take more, I'm kicking down your door. When you're alone in the dark, you stuck-up two-faced tart.

04) Lies?
Cheats never prosper, crime don't pay, The meek shall inherit come judgement day, Peace in our time, no pain no gain, management decisions, insurance claims, the slow but sure will always win it, there's one born every minute.
It's a lie! It's a lie! It's a lie! It's a lie!
The cheque's in the post, you won't feel a thing, the power of prayer and the deadly sins, you're as young as you feel, your mother knows best, the truth will out, young man go west, the end can justify the means, God save the queen.
It's a lie! It's a lie! It's a lie! It's a lie!
Breeding counts, lambs to the slaughter, who dares wins, blood's thicker than water, expense accounts, graduation days, a friend in need, a spade's a spade, the power and the glory, the country's burning, the lady's not for turning.
It's a lie! It's a lie! It's a lie! It's a lie!
Mega-buck deals, interest rates, fortune tellers and the hand of fate, credit ratings, human rights, the seven wonders, another street fight, global warming and cleaner seas, here come the cavalry.
It's a lie! It's a lie! It's a lie! It's a lie! It's a lie! It's a lie! It's a lie! It's a lie! It's a lie! It's a lie! It's a lie! It's a lie! It's a lie! It's a lie! It's a lie! It's a lie!
05) East End girl
When she's hot it's the heat of a burning at the stake and when she's cold it's the chill of a frozen Moscow lake. And when she smiles is it real or the smile an assassin makes, before he sends you to hell. She's an east end girl.
When she sighs it's the sigh of a sleeping tiger's stir and when she cries it's a storm like the world has never heard. And when she lies you'll believe in every single word, 'coz you can never tell, with an east end girl.
And when they're kicking down the door she'll be there at your side, they'll never take her alive 'coz she's an east end girl!
She's dangerous and beautiful and proud, with her feet on the ground and her head high in the clouds. And all it takes is one look through a late night party crowd, to put you under the spell, of an east end girl.
And when they're kicking down the door she'll be there at your side, they'll never take her alive 'coz she's an east end girl!
And she may move to the country or the coast, for the kids and the Volvo and the Sunday roast. But there's one thing her posh neighbours can never boast, underneath her shell, she's an east end girl.
06) Anthem
Give me your hopes, give me your dreams, give me your conscience and your fears. I'll keep them safe, I'll hold them dear and I'll believe in you.
When you're blind I'll be your eyes, when you're weak I'll carry you. When hope is gone I'll pull you through and I'll believe in you.
In darkest hours, in troubled times, through seas of fire and fields of lies. When all is lost in clouds of pain, I'll be your comfort and your guide.
When all around the battles rage, remember you were born to be free. I'm in your blood, your part of me and I'll believe in you.
In darkest hours, in troubled times, through seas of fire and fields of lies. When all is lost in clouds of pain, I'll be your comfort and your guide.
So when you need me there just call, when your back's against the wall. I'll never let you fall and I'll believe in you...and I'll believe in you...and I'll believe in you...and I'll believe in you...and I'll believe in you...and I'll believe in you...and I'll believe in you!!!
07) Time to be me
So you think you're gonna cause a splash, you're gonna make some cash, you're gonna open every door. With the wind in your hair and the sun on your face, everything's gonna fall into place, you're so sure. And you take whatever you can while you sit at home making your plans and if you ever gave a damn, that was long ago, it's over and done, now you think about number one.
Now it's time to be me, that's all you ever shout, but you never do anything about it! Now it's time to be me, I hear it every day it's easy to say, but life gets in the way!
You ring me up when you've had a smoke, with your crazy ideas you're just full of coke and hot air. A winning smile is all you've got, but you ain't got a brain and you ain't got a pot, don't you care? You're always home watching sky T.V., or down the pub poncing drinks off me. Telling everybody what you're gonna be, well I've had enough you lazy sod, get off your arse and get a job.
Now it's time to be me, that's all you ever shout, but you never do anything about it! Now it's time to be me, I hear it every day it's easy to say, but life gets in the way!
Now it's time to be me, that's all you ever shout, but you never do anything about it! Now it's time to be me, I hear it every day it's easy to say, but life gets in the way!
Now it's time to be me, that's all you ever shout, but you never do anything about it! Now it's time to be me, I hear it every day it's easy to say, but life gets in the way!
08) I live in Marbella (Working Part III)
Well I worked on a site and I soldered up pipes and I still ended up with nothing left to show, so I thought I'd give it one more go. I met this bloke and I thought it was a joke, when he asked if I had it in my heart to rob, what he meant was a nice bank job. So I thought I'd give it one more try, one final chance before I die, I got me a gun and a ticket to the sun.
And now I live in Marbella, the sun, the sand, I've got the lot! And I live in Marbella 'coz I'd rather live there than not!
So I met with the mob and we set up a job, the ugliest bunch of gits you'd wanna meet, in a pub down in Denmark Street. Then I take to the wheel and we rob and we steel, without a hitch we're running out the door, 'coz the manager's my brother-in-law. Then we're sharing out the dough, jump in a cab out to Heathrow, time for one more drink before I go.
And now I live in Marbella, the sun, the sand, I've got the lot! And I live in Marbella 'coz I'd rather live there than not!
My apartment's cool, it's even got a pool, Marble everywhere and a maid to change the sheets, I make her come twice a week. And I drink in the bars with T.V. stars Eastenders, Brookside, Coronation Street, I've landed on my feet. And my mates pop over from the Smoke, for a swim and a sunbathe and some coke money and friends, what a happy end.
And now I live in Marbella, the sun, the sand, I've got the lot! And I live in Marbella 'coz I'd rather live there than not!
And now I live in Marbella, the sun, the sand, I've got the lot! And I live in Marbella 'coz I'd rather live there than not!
I live in Marbella, the sun, the sand, I've got the lot! And I live in Marbella, I'd rather live there than not! I live in Marbella, the sun, the sand, I've got the lot! And I live in Marbella, I'd rather live there than not!
09) Bats out
Just another tour, just another gig, just another sound and lighting rig, a Rock 'n' Roll show and a couple of beers, but some of those boys had other ideas. A sign on the wall made it perfectly clear: No guns, no bombs, no knives in here.
Potsdam rocks but we should have been told of freedoms new and rivals old, we played the set and we encored fast, then the dressing room door was locked at last. In retrospect, the mistake was the fact that the sign didn't say: No baseball bats!
Bats out, get your bats out! Bats out, get your bats out! Bats out, get your bats out! Bats out, get your bats out! Bats out, get your bats out!
There's always dark before the dawn, there's always still before the storm. From calm to chaos in a flash, the bottles flew, the place got trashed. Then through the noise, we heard the shout: Get your bats out, get your bats out!
Bats out, get your bats out! Bats out, get your bats out! Bats out, get your bats out! Bats out, get your bats out! Bats out, get your bats out!
Said the manager to the Security guard, "It's no use standing there looking hard...Pick up the bat and follow me," he said "I'm not with Security!"
And the ballroom now was a battlefield and we thought that someone might get killed. We saw it all but we never knew what reasons lay behind that feud and we wondered if it was fate or not to destroy only thing you've got.
Bats out, get your bats out! Bats out, get your bats out! Bats out, get your bats out! Bats out, get your bats out! Bats out, get your bats out!
Bats out, get your bats out! Bats out, get your bats out! Bats out, get your bats out! Bats out, get your bats out! Bats out, get your bats out!
10) Battersea Bardot
With your hair so white you could light up the night, burning out like a shooting star. From the stage to The Squeeze, from T.V. to striptease, I loved you in the back of my car. Nobody's gonna tell you what to do. Nobody's gonna mess around with you. You'll never give up the fight, not Carol White.
Cathy come home, where have you been, it's been so long since you went away! From monochrome to the silver screen, the Battersea Bardot, that's what they say!
With that smile in your eyes you could tell me no lies, play it hard, take the smooth with the rough. Just a pearl in world full of users of girls, one jump ahead for a while, not long enough. Nobody's gonna tell you what to do. Nobody's gonna mess around with you. You'll never give up the fight, not Carol White.
Cathy come home, where have you been, it's been so long since you went away! From monochrome to the silver screen, the Battersea Bardot, that's what they say!
Cathy come home, where have you been, it's been so long since you went away! From monochrome to the silver screen, the Battersea Bardot, that's what they say!
Cathy come home, where have you been, it's been so long since you went away! From monochrome to the silver screen, the Battersea Bardot, that's what they say! The Battersea Bardot, come back and stay...
11) I feel death coming on
I see it in the women, the coldness in their eyes, so shallow in their minds so predictable in desire. I see it in the bosses whose hands hold people's lives, so stupid in promotion of old boys, sycophants and liars.
And I feel a death coming on, coming on! And I feel a death coming on, coming on!
The job I do is boring, they all hate me anyway, the days are long the nights are just an alcoholic haze. The weekends come and go, nothing different, nothing new, I smoke because I need to and I drink because there's nothing else to do.
And I feel a death coming on, coming on! And I feel a death coming on, coming on!
Somebody always fucks it up with a knife in the back or a bullet in the guts. One door opens, another one shuts, somebody always fucks it up.
And I feel a death coming on, coming on!
People think I'm crazy but I'm gonna make 'em pay, let 'em laugh for now, the tears will soon be hear to stay. A chance is all I asked but heads stay buried in the sand, going out in a blaze of glory, that's the only thing they'll understand.
And I feel a death coming on, coming on! And I feel a death coming on, coming on!
12) Back home
Back Home-they'll be thinking about us, when we are far away. Back-Home they'll be really behind us, in every game we play. The'll share every goal we are scoring out there. We still hear them roaring and we'll give all we've got to give, for the folks back home.
Back home-they'll be watching and waiting and chearing every move. Back home-though they think we're the greatest, that's what we've got to prove. Once more-we will meet with the best like before, we'll be put to the test knowing, we'll give all we've got to give for the folks back home.
They'll see as they are watching and praying that we, put our hearts in our playing, we'll fight until the whistle's blown, for the folks back home. We'll fight until the whistle's blown, for the folks back home!!
13) Goodbye
We were born by the Thames' running water, sons of the social disorder. Go to school, get a job, be a fool or a yob and prepare yourself for gaol, but we tired of the constant surrender to those with a hidden agenda. So we fought with the best, now it's time for a rest as we say our last farewell.
Goodbye, we're calling it day, we're having it away, we're gonna say goodbye! Goodbye, there's nothing left to say, we're getting in the way, we're gonna say goodbye!
For the holidays in Devon, for the spirit of seventy-seven for the laughs and the ligs and the drinks and the gigs and the making of the fuss. For the friends who knew just where to find us, for the mates who were always behind us, when you're next in a pub or a bar or a club, have a drink on us.
Goodbye, we're calling it day, we're having it away, we're gonna say goodbye! Goodbye, there's nothing left to say, we're getting in the way, we're gonna say goodbye! Goodbye! Goodbye! Goodbye! Goodbye!
For the friends who knew just where to find us, for the mates who were always behind us, when you're next in a pub or a bar or a club, have a drink on us.
