Show me the movie Of who you are and where you're from Born of frustration Caught upon the webs you've spun Where's the confusion A vision of what life is like Show me the movie That doesn't deal in black and white Stop stop talking about who's to blame When all that counts is how to change Stop stop talking about who's to blame When all that counts is how to change La la la la la la la la....... All this frustration All this frustration Who put brown owl eyes on a butterfly's wings All this frustration All this frustration Who gave the leopards spots and taught the birds to sing Born of frustration Born of frustration I'm living in the weirdest dream Where nothing is the way it seems Where no one's who they need to be Where nothing seems that real to me What can we build our lives upon No altar stone, no solid ground The world is spinning endlessly We're clinging to our own beliefs Born of frustration Born of frustration | song discography |

America is dreaming us. In a hostage's hands there'll be no fuss. A messy dream, a dream of youth, A dream of wealth, no room for truth. I can see all these preachers and they're standing on next to me. A hand in the hand and they're waving at me furiously And I don't know why No, I don't know why. I'm standing on the corner and this man is coming up to me With Bible at his hand and he is bashing at me furiously. He has a soapbox on his head and says that god is dead to me I don't know why No, I don't know why. I've been dreaming of fame I've been dreaming of gold I've been dreaming of change Dreaming up tomorrow Tomorrow. | song discography |

I'm a fool to think strong Is to win every fight If I hand you the knife Can you cut me off some slack? Or put the knife in my back Dig me out of a hole Dig me out of a hole Freedom on the tongue Gets tongue twisted When the essence of the words Is to control Made a bonfire of the crimes I'm convicted You got blistered, fire I know I was wrong Are you so sure that you're right? You're a fool to think strong Is to win every fight If I hand you the knife Can you cut me off some slack? Or put the knife in my back Dig me out of a hole Dig me out of a hole Cut the chord It's contagious You absorb All the fallout I've been small You're gigantic Au secours Lovesick romantics You're the one who speaks in tongues Of sorcerers and saviours I have only just begun To understand love's dangers I'm the one who understands The gifts of fallen angels I'm the one who hurt you I know I was wrong Are you so sure that you're right? You're a fool to think strong Is to win every fight If I hand you the knife Could you cut me off some slack? Or put the knife in my back Dig me out of a hole Dig me out of a hole You're the one who's catching me Falling backwards You're the one who's catching me Falling backwards Falling backwards Falling backwards | song discography |

Never said I love you, I hope you knew. Now my bags are packed, And my sails are tacked, And my course is marked by stars. When this cycle ends, Will it start again Will we recognise old friends? I'm on my way Soon be moving on my way. Leave a little light on. Leave a little light on. I'm on my way, Soon be moving on my way. Leave a little light on. Leave a little light on. Time, always unwinding, All these deadlines in my mind. Seeds and dreams we planted, Took for granted, didn't root. Walking down this road, Will my pulse beat slow, Hope to have you close at hand. When this cycle ends, Will it start again, Will we recognise old friends? I'm on my way, Soon be moving on my way. Leave a little light on Leave a little light on. I'm on my way On my way On my way On my way Leave a little light on Leave a light on I'm on my way, Soon be moving on my way. Leave a little light on Leave a little light on. I'm on my way Soon be moving on my way Leave a little light on Leave a little light on, Leave a little light on. | song discography |

| Pleased To Meet You | Scared to be alone Frightened of the dark Everything is too much For a boy out of touch with his feelings I must be to blame I must be at fault I believe I'm never good enough To shine a light that lingers I have witnessed star Bursts in your coal black eyes I am what I try to deny I have seen the serpent coiling set to strike And love is the usual disguise Pleased to meet you Where you from and what's your name? Never came alive Never cut the cord Nothing is too much For a boy out of touch with his feelings Worshiping the moonshine Skinning up the grapevine I don't have a plan where I'm going I just follow my fingers I will be the burning man To grace these times I am what I try to deny I reflect the same eyes looking back at me And love is the only reply Pleased to meet you Where you from and what's your name? We're more than enough Dead ringers Pleased to meet you Where you from and what's your name? Pleased to meet you Where you from and what's your name? Pleased to meet you Where you from and what's your name? Pleased to meet you Where you from and what's your name? Pleased to meet you Where you from and what's your name?

| Pocketful Of Lemons | I've got a pocketful of lemons, And an aphrodisiac pack, Got a mind set on confusion, And I'm never, ever coming back, When you talked of love you meant something else, A war perhaps, When you kissed my lips you tasted, My flesh perhaps, Got a third eye full of visions, In my backpack there's a satellite dish, You confused me with my father, Had a memory, Like a goldfish, You kissed the lips of horses in your dreams, But in life you want it sterile, Including you and me, I'm getting over you now, If you'd leave me alone, I'm sure I'd get home, Just getting over you now, But you keep fooling around, When I talk of heaven, You book holidays in Spain, When I observe the sky is falling, You dryly me it might rain, When you tied me up I imagined, Kate Moss perhaps, And you imagined him too, I'm getting over you now, If you'd leave me alone, I could almost get home, Just getting over you now, But you keep fooling around, In this storm, In this sea, There is nothing that can save me, In this storm, In this sea, There is nothing that can save me, save me, Na na na na na na, Na na na na na na na, Na na na na na, Na na na na na na na Na na na na na, Na na na na na na na Na na na na na, Na na na na na na na | song discography |

| Sometimes (Lester Piggott) | There's a storm outside, and the gap between crack and thunder Crack and thunder, is closing in, is closing in The rain floods gutters, and makes a great sound on concrete On a flat roof, there's a boy leaning against the wall of rain Aerial held high, calling ""come on thunder, come on thunder"" Sometimes, when I look deep in your eyes, I swear I can see your soul Sometimes, when I look deep in your eyes, I swear I can see your soul It's a monsoon, and the rain lifts lids off cars Spinning buses like toys, stripping them to chrome Across the bay, the waves are turning into something else Picking up fishing boats and spewing them on the shore The boy is hit, lit up against the sky, like a sign, like a neon sign And then he crumples, drops into the gutter, cut strings, legs twitching The flood, swells his clothes, and delivers him on, delivers him on Sometimes, when I look deep in your eyes I swear I can see your soul Sometimes, when I look deep in your eyes I swear I can see your soul There's four new colours in the rainbow An old man's taking Polaroids But all he captures is endless rain, endless rain He says listen, takes my head and puts my ear to his And I swear I can hear the sea Sometimes, when I look in your eyes I can see your soul (I can reach your soul) (I can touch your soul) (I can hear your soul) Sometimes | song discography |

Heading out on this mercy trail, You look so strong, Feel so frail, Need a friend in this barren land, All your approaches have failed, Hope you come through. Falling, falling into you, Falling, no parachute, Are you receiving me, Read my lips, A foreign language, I'm not deceiving you, Take my hand, It's a bridge. Heading out on this mercy trail, You look so strong, Feel so frail, See the world through a preachers eyes, Now all of your preaching has failed, Hope you come through Someone has stolen your horse, Hitch a ride cos it's far too far to walk. Someone has stolen your horse, Hitch a ride cos it's far too far to walk. Someone has stolen your horse, Hitch a ride cos it's far too far to walk.

And it rains and rains Feels like ten below Turning on the weaker ones When we were bored I used to have feelings But all I feel's a hole Is where the heart is And the organ praise the lord When's the holidays? Holidays, holidays He's at war, he's at war With himself at the world He's at war He will strike first to anticipate He's at war Don't know how to relate Feels like a Cold War spy If I'm caught, take the easy way out | song discography |

| Walk Like You | You know more than you think you know, This universe is in your eyes, Inside the galaxies collide. Which parent told you that you're slow? My absent dad, my mum's control, Schooled me to be a worker drone. So this is it, A life on earth, We're made of stars, We're made of dirt, Unconsciousness, We disconnect, Tone deaf to calling. We learn to walk like you, Talk like you, Oo-be-do, Think like you, Whine like you, Love like you in pieces. You know more than you think you know, Your DNA is pulsed by stars, Reveal the cogs that wheel the show. So this is it, A universe of birth and death, Love and neglect, But we forget, Dad's off on tour or in a meeting. We will not walk like you, Talk like you, Oo-be-do, Fight like you, Screwed like you, Break like you, In pieces. | song discography |

| What’s The World | What will he sell, in the glasses and suit, heart and soul that won’t wear out. That’s not enough I want what’s inside, took a fish fillet knife and cut right through my eyes. I’ve been looking for some words to call my own, not worn out phrases and hand me downs. They’ll mark me and where I stand, a bug on its back in a corned beef can. Going under, you can feel them stripping you down to the rust inside. This is the way, Frankie’s star is born. From those bits and pieces others have worn. All held together by management glue, too much glue, and the stars turn blue. Going under, you can feel them pulling you down to the holes inside. | song discography |

| XYST | Throw me a bone here I’m down on my luck You won life’s lottery Now you don’t give a fuck Throw me a bone here You’ve so much on your plate Strip the fields like locusts Then flush us down the grate At what cost innocence? When we’re crushed Jump the fence Don’t forget you’re one of us You’re one of us It’s medieval Lepers at your gate Homeless and lonely There’s no net to take our weight At what cost innocence? When we’re crushed Jump the fence Don’t forget you’re one of us You’re one of us | song discography |
| Ya Ho | I nearly died, when you jumped in But you had to drown before you could swim All the people on the beach, they were so impressed That they wanted to join you But no, they wouldn't undress Or let that wetness splash their skin So they pray for a whirlpool to pull you in Ya Ho Ya Ho Ya Ho So they looked away, and they tried to pretend That it was for you, but no it wasn't for them So the fear of sinking remains in place But it's the fear of failure that's a real disgrace Ya Ho Ya Ho Ya Ho Let me be the one, let me be the one, let me be the one, let me be the one To get over your wall, to get over your wall Head in the sand, sea out of reach Swept away by the games of the beach Those people sat and watched your stand And the weight of their fears Pulled them underground Will anyone learn from the stories that are told Of the tribe who drowned in the grave of gold Ya Ho Ya Ho Ya Ho Ya Ho Let me be the one, let me be the one, let me be the one, let me be the one To take a cool long look with eyes prised wide To face those fears from which I hide Ya Ho Ya Ho Ya Ho Ya Ho Ya Ho Ya Ho Ya Ho Ya Ho Ya Ho Heads down, someone's calling, but your head's down Someone's drowning Look up, see what's before your eyes Someone escaping or someone drowning Head's down, you can help them, but your head's down Your head is underground, your head is underground Your head is underground, your head is underground Your head is under the ground | song discography |
| You Can’t Tell How Much Suffering (On A Face That’s Always Smiling) | Brave face, an English illusion Stiff lips soft and creamy inside I'm hip to your pain and confusion You can't tell how much suffering On a face that's always smiling I swore I would always be with you But now I'm afraid of your tears I fear that you might take me with you You can't tell how much suffering On a face that's always smiling I've grinned my way through beatings I've smiled my way through school But underneath this grinning Is the sadness of the fool No longer know my feelings Been fooling for too long Born of desperation in an effort to look strong Look strong, look strong Hey there monkey face you look so strong That joke could crack you with laughter Release from the edge of despair Success is the god that I'm after In jokes, I'm a millionaire I've grinned my way through beatings I've smiled my way through school But underneath this grinning Is the sadness of the fool No longer know my feelings Been fooling for too long Born of desperation in an effort to look strong Look strong, look strong Hey there monkey face you look so strong You look so strong You gotta look so strong You can't tell how much suffering on a face that's always smiling You can't tell how much suffering on a face that's always smiling You can't tell how much suffering on a face that's always smiling | song discography |
| Your Story | I'm in search of a pilgrim twin Only pilgrims enter in Looking for some love, too blind I don't mind No, I don't mind Every lover is the grail I'm no knight, so I won't fail Every night is just divine Holy Grails are hard to find No-one here makes me horny No-one here makes me horny Beware, beware No-one gives their lives up for the highs of the cerebral No-one makes me horny No-one here makes me horny Lover, we've just come through the ceiling Kiss me then promise you'll stay Lover, that's your essence I'm needing I'll pay, I will pay All these people to endure I want more, I want it all Heard about the hooker of the holy man She was borne by God's right hand Fuck me til I'm whole again Fuck, I've lost my contact lens Lover, will you kiss me forever Strangers must move on and leave town Life range from a soap to an opera One down, one man down No-one here makes me horny No-one here makes me horny Beware, beware, beware (repeat to end) | song discography |
