Hot You're Cool

In a far far cooler light
This could seem too deep a bite
But the days too bright
Tonights the night

So hot you cool
So cool you hot
Show me my favourite beauty spot
Tie me up in a love knot
Boiling over bubbling up

So hot you cool
So cool you hot
Hot you cool so cool
You hot hot hot
So hot you cool
So cool you hot
Hot you cool so cool
You hot hot hot

Hot legs against my chest
Stomach tight and wet
The very best
Yes you've guessed!
You've guessed it!

So hot you cool
So cool you hot
Show me my favourite beauty spot
Tie me up in a love knot
Boiling over bubbling up!

So hot you cool
So cool you hot
Hot you cool so cool
You hot hot hot
So hot you cool
So cool you hot
Hot you cool so cool
You hot hot hot hot hot

Hot you cool
So cool you hot
Show me my favourite beauty spot
Tie me up in a love knot
Boiling over bubbling up

So hot you cool
So cool you hot
Hot you cool so cool
You hot hot hot
So hot you cool
So cool you hot
Hot you cool so cool
You hot hot hot hot hot

Tell them they should no bother business
Tell them that it's out affair
Tell them nothing else exists
When i run my fingers through your hair!

So hot you cool
So cool you hot
Hot you cool so cool
You hot hot hot
So hot you cool
So cool you hot
Hot you cool so cool
You hot hot hot hot hot hot hot

Tenderness

I don't know when to start or when to stop
My luck's like a button
I can't stop pushing it
My head feels light
But I'm still in the dark
Seems like without tenderness there's something missing
Tenderness
Where is the
Tenderness
Where is it?

I don't know where I am but I know I don't like it
I open my mouth and out pops something spiteful
Words are so cheap, but they can turn out expensive
Words like conviction can turn into a sentence

I held your hands
Rings but none on that finger
We danced and danced
But I was scared to go much further with it
Just half a chance
Make sure that one night you're here,
But next night you're not
It always leaves me searching for a little

Tenderness
Where is the
Tenderness
Where is the
Tenderness?

Whistling in the graveyard
Calling up your girlfriend
Just trying to make her understand
You're squeezing the telephone like it was her hand
No question (so many questions)
She's going to catch you out boy
It all seems so underhand
Now she's the only thing that ever made you feel like a man,man
Madman, madman

Tenderness
Where is the
Tenderness
Tenderness
Tenderness
Where is it?

I held your hands
Rings but none on that finger
We danced and danced
But I was scared to go much further with it
Just half a chance
Make sure that one night you're here,
But next night you're not
It always leaves me searching for a little

Tenderness
Where is the
Tenderness?

When you're sick to death of second best, pet
Why should the morning always find you unimpressed?
Is your love like a button?
You can't stop pushing it?
Oh this all night longing can be such a long time

Anxious

Hanging on the line
Waiting to be picked
Same old story
Every time I ask a favour of you
Force and hold me back
So that we don't win
So that you don't lose
So long I don't move

Trained to expect
We're forced to deny
If you take away the feelings
You take away everything

I don't understand
Why you always smile,
Meaning to be sad and that's what I am
Hold and take away
Now you've got the chance
You'll feel it one day when you're by yourself

Trained to expect
We're forced to deny
If you take away the feelings
You take away everything

Anxious
I get a little bit anxious

I've got half a mind
Haven't got the time
Too busy every time I ask a favour of you
Couldn't help it
Someone made you do it
God give me strength
I'm in the same position as you

Trained to expect
We're forced to deny
If you take away the feelings
You take away everything

Oh anxious
I get a little bit anxious
Anxious
I'm just a little bit anxious
Oh anxious

Never You Done That

Well who would've guessed?
Well i guess i should
The second night was just as good
By the end of the week we were living as one
Gone two years now we're still together

Day in and day out
For however long
It's the kind of love
That could last forever
Day in and day out
For however long
Each time we kiss you're the perfect stranger

So me say
Don't never you go
Too far away from me girl
Never you done that
Don't never you go too far away
Don't even think of saying it

Don't never you go
Too far away from me girl
Never you done that
Don't never you mention certain words about
No no
Never you done that
Never you done that
Never you done that

Take another stab
Try another play
Maybe a little drink will take the edge off
Trying not to slip
Trying to get a grip
But each time we kiss you're the perfect stranger

So me say
Don't never you go
Too far away from me girl
Never you done that
Don't never you mention certain words about
No no
Never you done that
Never you done that
No never you done that
Never you done that

Tired all day
Can't sleep at night
Out of control since
You've been in my sights
Day in day out
It's such a fright
Till you hold me close
And say that it's alright

Don't never you go
Too far away from me girl
Never you mention certain words about
No no
Never you done that
Never you done that
Never you done that
Never you done that
Never you done that
Never you done that

Well who would've guessed?
Well i guess i might
Another cheerless restless night
Another day gone none too bright
Gone two years do you still remember?

That all the while my mouth was saying "go"
My heart was screaming no no no
Turn around and look at me
You'll find me on my knees
Saying please please

Don't never you go
Too far away from me girl
Never you done that
Don't never you go too far away
Don't even think of saying it
Don't never you go
Don't never you go far
No never you done that
Never you mention certain words about
No no no no no no no no no no

Never you done that
Never you done that
Never you done that
Never you done that
Never you done that
Never you done that

No never you done that
Never you
Never you
Never ever ever you!

Burning Bright

Watch the skies for signs or planes
Same old bad news again today
Just a thousand ways to make torture sound polite

From H. Block to Springbok
Tell me when does the beating stop
I'm not prepared to just sit
and watch again tonight
Here it comes
Here it comes
Here it comes

We have a dream
There's no use fighting it
Burning burning bright
Dreams can come true
If you put your mind to it
And you've been tucked up alright
It's burning burning bright
Oh don't put out the lights

From Moscow to Monterey
Maine to Mexico
Its hard to hear what the people say
It's like they've one foot in their mouoths
And the other in their graves

From H. Block to Springbok
Tell me when do the beating stop?
Are you prepared to just stand
and watch again tonight?
Here it comes
Here it comes
Here it comes

We have a dream
There's no use fighting it
Burning burning bright
Dreams can come true
If you put your mind to it
And you've been tucked up alright
Burning burrrrnnning bright

Here it comes
Here it comes
Here it comes

We have a dream
There's no use fighting it
It's burning burning bright
Dreams can come true
If you put your mind to it
And you've been tucked up alright
You're burning burning bright
So don't put out the lights!

Someone's been lying in my bed
And wearing my clothes
Roses to start with
But now nothing in the garden grows
It's all the same yes
But it's not the person i know
Roses to start with
But as a matter of fact
It's no more than an act

You'll just have to follow your nose
Stranger than fiction
Well a'int that the way the story goes?
What kind of world is this
Where the blood flows faster than wine?
Roses are red yes
And now i'm seeing red as a sign of the times

Wassamatter

Are You Leading Me On?

Say you'll be there
I'll change my clothes and cut my hair
Say that you might
I'd sit outside your door all night
Quiet as a mouse
Say yes and i'll go to our mom's house
If you say you care
I'll go to the foot of our stairs

But are you leading on me on
Or is there something behind it?
Well i don't know but i mean to find out
Is there something you're hiding?
Oh are you leading me on
Look are you having me at it
Well i don't know but i mean to find out
Come on are you are you leading me on?

Misgive or mistake?
Misbehaving like it's going out of date
Say "thanks a lot"
Thank you very much
You beat me to the early touch

But are you leading on me on
Or is there something behind it?
I don't know but i mean to find out
Is there something you're hiding
Oh oh are you leading me on
Look are you having me at it
Well i don't know but i mean to find out
Come on are you are you are you leading me on?

One look had to tek a stop
Especially design to make your shoe heel pop
Your will is strong enought to make me change my mind
Cos when i'm next to you it kinda grab me from behind
Some of dem will tell you dat dem have another guy
And some of dem will tell you pure lies
If your momma gone away and your mind gone astray
Remember what the wise guys say...

"look are you leading on me on?
Well i don't know but i mean to find out
Come on come on come on"

Oh oh oh say you'll be there
I'll change my clothes and cut my hair
Say that you might
I'd sit outside your door all night
Quiet as a mouse
Say yes and i'll go to our mom's house
If you say you care
Oh i'll go to the foot of our stairs

But are you leading on me on
Or is there something behind it?
Well i don't know but i mean to find out
Is there something you're hiding?
Oh oh oh are you leading me on
Look are you having me at it
Well i don't know but i mean to find out
Come on are you are you leading me on john?

Where's The Line?

Always tried to keep in touch
But somehow the ringing never stopped
I tried to break that lock
With almost death defying leaps and bounds
But never found
too many friends on stony ground
A friend's a friend but a pound's a pound
And things can get awful heavy

Say where's the line between lust and love?
Where's the line? Where's the line?

Not really hard just acting tough
That's how it seems to be
Wish I was sterner stuff
Wish I was anyone but me
Huh! Tone it down
Your friends get laid on stony ground
A friend's a friend but a pound's a pound
And things keep on pounding pounding

Where's the line between lust and love eh?
Eh? Eh? Eh? Eh?
Where's the line between black and white?
What on Earth are you thinking of?
Where's the line between lust and love?
Isn't it time for some truths and rights?
What on Earth are you?

Does you mind ever stop?
Does you mind ever stop?
No mine never stops
Stop! Stop!

So where's the line between lust and love
Where's the line between lust and love
Where's the line
Say where's the line
Where's the line
Ah where's the line

Not really hard just acting tough
Say "Wish I was sterner stuff"
Love love love
Where's the line

Look I always tried to keep in touch
Touch touch
But somehow the ringing never stopped
I say where's the line?
Where's the line between lust and love eh
Eh Eh say where's the line between lust and love
Where's the line between lust and love
Brrr bop scoop
Where's the line between lust and love
Love love love
Where's the line between lust and love
Where's the line between lust and love
Where's the line
Love love love
Where's the line

Walk that tightrope
One more time
Where's the line?
Show me show me

Where's the line between lust and love?
Brrrr bop skippm
Say where's the line?
Yes where's the line?

General Public

Come and join the federation
We could have communication
You can have your application
Be inside the battle station
Could this be your fascination
Look out for hallucinations
Stick right to the regulations
Must keep down the population

That right you could act so badly
People never notice sadly
All the goings on behind the backs
Of men left well deserted

Seek out individuality
Make sure you show hospitality
Face it now cause its reality
Watch the change in personality
What's to change humanity?

That right you could act so badly
People never notice sadly
All the goings on behind the backs
Of men left well deserted

Uhuh general public
Uhuh general public
Uhuh general public
Uhuh general public

Keep your head down
Start to fire
Show them you're the terrifier
He claims he's a justifier
Can't you see that he's a liar
Got to act as if you're slyer
You can be the supplier

That right you could act so badly
People never notice sadly
All the goings on behind the backs
Of men left well deserted

Uhuh general public
Uhuh general public
Uhuh general public

Uhuh play the white man
Work like a black
General public striking back
Back backbiter back
