DID YOU REALLY?

ALBUM: OF SOMEDAY SHAMBLES (US), 2000 Think you had it much harder than the rest Well this is no contest No this is no contest All the fighting that's stained inside my head Will be there till I'm dead Will be there till I'm dead Sex slash death is in my head Be there till I'm dead I'll spit out what else I'm fed Did you really want to scar our past Did you really want to grow so old Did you really want to make us hurt Whatsoever I'll put it down to time And take what's left that's mine And take what's left that's mine In the end I guess everyone's the same And nobody's to blame And nobody's to blame Sex slash death is in my head Be there until I'm dead I'll spit out what else I'm fed Did you really want to scar our past Did you really want to grow so old Did you really want to make us hurt

STAR MACHINE

ALBUM: OF SOMEDAY SHAMBLES (US), 2000 Been thinking of building a ship to the stars Found plans made in fourth grade should get me that far Jesus she says I know what you mean I'll make you then take you my flying machine I'm over exposure I need to levitate Above this experience I need to find a way today for far away There's a simple explanation For the trouble that we're in The shed light on all night The work noise outside The belief in relief found somewhere to hide Jesus she says I know what you mean Don't be scared just prepared My flying machine Pre Chorus Chorus Meander Chorus I've set the date take off's tonight My star machine takes flight

CONGRATULATIONS

ALBUM: OF SOMEDAY SHAMBLES (US), 2000 He's coming round tonight Catching the train out Started work today It's no fun but it pays One thing that you're sure of He won't ever let you down S'posed to leave at eight But the sitters late Times run out to go To that Even show One thing that you're sure of He won't ever let you down He could never hurt you But it's so much to get involved I drowned in glory to tell this story Of self denial and choices final He was there for you When your ex shot through But can you really count On him sticking round? One thing that you're sure of He won't ever let you down He could never hurt you But it's so much to get involved I drowned in glory to tell this story Of self denial and choices final Can't change what happened my youths been shattered Now can I really bring him down with me He can't play father to your son When he's eighteen years young! I drowned in glory to tell this story Of self denial and choices final Can't change what happened my youth's been shattered Now can I really bring him down with me.

TRAPDOOR

ALBUM: OF SOMEDAY SHAMBLES (US), 2000 Don't be too alarmed when you hear me raise my voice I don't want to do it but you've left me with no choice All around me situations that I can't escape I'm helpless and I'm feeling that my actions come too late You, you... I guess sometimes that I fight for all the trouble that I'm in But usually I'm certain that all my trash thrown in the bin Going over speed limits will make you see the light There's no consideration for the fact you're still alive oh, you It's a trap x 5 Don't be too alarmed when you hear me raise my voice I don't want to do it but you've left me with no choice All around me situations that I can't escape I'm helpless and I'm feeling that my actions come too late You, you... Don't be too alarmed when you hear me raise my voice I don't want to do it but you've left me with no choice All around me situations that I can't escape I'm helpless and I'm feeling that my actions come too late You, you... It's a trap x 10

PLEASE LEAVE

ALBUM: OF SOMEDAY SHAMBLES (US), 2000 Those things you said are getting to me I close my eyes so I couldn't see I'm used to all the crap you dish out I know exactly what it's about You didn't want to come across the sea Dragged by your hair, it got worse you got me Now everything is cool up until when Accidently screw up your life again x 4 It's not that I don't want you around But you act as if we're bringing you down Maybe you don't have the guts to go Maybe you just don't want me to know Chorus During the last Chorus Kevin sings: You can't blame us for everything When lives come down you'll probably leave So pack your bags and take your time To leave, to leave, to leave And someday when you think of me Remember how I was happy Until the day I learned to see Please leave, please leave, please leave

HAPPIER SAD

ALBUM: OF SOMEDAY SHAMBLES (US), 2000 Falling out again Just when everything was working out And it's all because of me Cos I like the way it feels to live in doubt It's high time I start to learn To live my life with a poker face and then All these emotional feelings I can't ignore Aren't on display to the whole world anymore Am I Happier Sad? It's all over and done And I'm warm inside my melancholy mind Kinda feels secure The best cure for a heartache I can find Pre Chorus Chorus Instrumental Break Pre Chorus Chorus Chorus Instrumental End

SLOT CAR RACING

Verse Chorus

FEET TOUCH THE GROUND

ALBUM: OF SOMEDAY SHAMBLES (US), 2000 So I thought the worst was over When my heart stopped beating again And the weak side of my body has come undone Through trusting them So we walked into the building Took the lift to the third floor Pain lies behind that door what am I to do now? When what they tell me is just what they sell me And I know to be realistic Will save me from the shock to come Any fool believes what you tell them Happiness is being dumb So we listened to the experts Everyone needs some kind of guide to help them See deep inside what am I to do now? When what they tell me is just what they sell me And it's not the truth but I'm not calming down Till my feet touch the ground So I thought the worst was over When my heart stopped beating again And the weak side of my body doubled up I'm never trusting them So don't listen to the experts Cos I've seen they don't know anything Can you hear the truth ring what am I to do now? Chorus Break Chorus

IN ORBIT

ALBUM: OF SOMEDAY SHAMBLES (US), 2000 You don't wanna know, the truth will only hurt you And I don't wanna go, back down that road I hate to I've been trying so long to deal with what I've done You say you want a song, well here you go have this one Chorus: I'm a boy with an endless lie See the world through my bad black eyes But it's alright, if it's alright Don't mean to be mean, okay go on just say Exactly what I've been you're right and don't I know it It's immaturity, I can't wash clean my conscience The truth is killing me could it make any difference Chorus I'm a boy with an endless lie (but it's alright)

SKIN

RUN OF THE COMPANY

ALBUM: OF SOMEDAY SHAMBLES (US), 2000 Believe what you will they'll take your honesty still Honoured Chairman of the Board picking the scraps off the floor Desperate for more it's corporate law when spirits fall They'll own our souls. It's all that we know, in everything that we say It's everyday of our lives, born to a loss of control (control) I dream daily, humans are commodities One day you'll see, run of the company You don't realise till it's in front of your eyes When your inside of the plan Answering all to the man Chorus x 2

And what was once green Had all turned black, had all turned black And there was nothing left to say.
