We think we're important
We are, we're a car, we're a shell
When you hit that city road
You sure give them hell
Are you sure he's showing off
Or are you showing us yourself
Little Englander, Little Englander
In your search to be a star
You became the p***k you are
Little Englander, Little Englander
Little Englander, Little Englander
Judge me go on it amuses me
As you pickle through your tirade
You prattle on to the point of a laugh
Your Hieronymus Bosch - like soul
Betrays who you really are
Little Englander, Little Englander
Little Englander, Little Englander
Little Englander, Little Englander
Little Englander, Little Englander
Let me smash the plastic face of my country
Let me smash the plastic face of my country
My country
My lovely country

Never Never Love Lyrics By Simply Red
So now we've got our independence
What are we gonna do with it?
Learning to play different games
Already using different names
Cause now our love bears no resemblance
To what we had before
When our love was good it was all that we saw
When our love was good it blinded us before
This real revolution baby
Where you're not below me anymore
Never never love can never be enough
Never be enough, just ain't good enough
Never never love can never be enough
Never be enough, oh no
So now we've got our independence
What are we gonna do with it?
Building the houses, claiming back the land
Burning the bridges, cleaning up your hands
Cause now our love bears no resemblance
To what we had before
Now our love has something for the future
Now our love will grow the seeds to sow this real revolution
This good revolution baby
Where you're not below me anymore
What are we gonna do with it?
Learning to play different games
Already using different names
Cause now our love bears no resemblance
To what we had before
When our love was good it was all that we saw
When our love was good it blinded us before
This real revolution baby
Where you're not below me anymore
Never never love can never be enough
Never be enough, just ain't good enough
Never never love can never be enough
Never be enough, oh no
So now we've got our independence
What are we gonna do with it?
Building the houses, claiming back the land
Burning the bridges, cleaning up your hands
Cause now our love bears no resemblance
To what we had before
Now our love has something for the future
Now our love will grow the seeds to sow this real revolution
This good revolution baby
Where you're not below me anymore

To Be Free Lyrics By Simply Red
To be free
Or to feel free
The first one is a myth
Yeah to be free
Or to feel free
The first one is a myth
For to be is to feel and to be real is to see
You want more
You say you want me
He left us alone as day was dawning
You got more
Did you get me
Red sleeps after sunrise has fallen
You hard core
You're hard on me
You're dressed up at dawn way before me
Bereft as the sunlight was falling upon me
To be free
Or to feel free
The first one is a myth
To be free
Or to feel free
The first one is a myth
To be is to feel and to be real is to see
To come is so organic unbelievable
A solitary sign to open up your mind
A love that's so organic unbelievable
A solitary sign to open up your mind
Open up your mind
Or to feel free
The first one is a myth
Yeah to be free
Or to feel free
The first one is a myth
For to be is to feel and to be real is to see
You want more
You say you want me
He left us alone as day was dawning
You got more
Did you get me
Red sleeps after sunrise has fallen
You hard core
You're hard on me
You're dressed up at dawn way before me
Bereft as the sunlight was falling upon me
To be free
Or to feel free
The first one is a myth
To be free
Or to feel free
The first one is a myth
To be is to feel and to be real is to see
To come is so organic unbelievable
A solitary sign to open up your mind
A love that's so organic unbelievable
A solitary sign to open up your mind
Open up your mind

Home Lyrics By Simply Red
What's worth nothing else but love
Take a walk down any street now
Every one of us in our own little world
Looking for a heart with whom to beat now
What's worth nothing else but love
I'm prepared to take the heat now
What's worth more than anything else at all
To keep you firmly on your feet now
So fake cool image should be over
'Cause I long for a feeling of home
Real life, depicted in song
A loving memory
After long, home is a place where I yearn to belong
Where the land meets the sea
She'll be smiling so sweetly now
I hope that she'll be here much longer than I will
My heart loves her with every beat now
So fake cool image should be over
'Cause I long for a feeling of home
Real life, depicted in song
A loving memory
After long, home is a place where I yearn to belong
Take a walk down any street now
Every one of us in our own little world
Looking for a heart with whom to beat now
What's worth nothing else but love
I'm prepared to take the heat now
What's worth more than anything else at all
To keep you firmly on your feet now
So fake cool image should be over
'Cause I long for a feeling of home
Real life, depicted in song
A loving memory
After long, home is a place where I yearn to belong
Where the land meets the sea
She'll be smiling so sweetly now
I hope that she'll be here much longer than I will
My heart loves her with every beat now
So fake cool image should be over
'Cause I long for a feeling of home
Real life, depicted in song
A loving memory
After long, home is a place where I yearn to belong

Fake Lyrics By Simply Red
Watching love drifting away
And I feel like I'm someone else
The hurting is rough
Long are the days
And you have hurt me enough
You're scared to be loved
You know that's your way
Your youth has made you too tough
You're hurting for love in so many ways
The truth has hurt you enough
I read a book
And it's your face
Fake: it's your face now
Still my love for you was no mistake
Fake: I will always love you
Fake
Hoping for love
Day after day
And it's always someone else
The hurting is rough
Long are the days
And you have hurt me enough
You're burning your hair
On your cigarette, oh baby
Turning your nose up
At the clothes your girlfriend wears
I don't care
Always, always, always I will love you
And I feel like I'm someone else
The hurting is rough
Long are the days
And you have hurt me enough
You're scared to be loved
You know that's your way
Your youth has made you too tough
You're hurting for love in so many ways
The truth has hurt you enough
I read a book
And it's your face
Fake: it's your face now
Still my love for you was no mistake
Fake: I will always love you
Fake
Hoping for love
Day after day
And it's always someone else
The hurting is rough
Long are the days
And you have hurt me enough
You're burning your hair
On your cigarette, oh baby
Turning your nose up
At the clothes your girlfriend wears
I don't care
Always, always, always I will love you

You Make Me Believe Lyrics By Simply Red
Sometimes you're my mama
Sometimes my little baby girl
Occasionally you're my puttana
But then you're sweet, sweet sweet love
And it makes me believe
That I should never lose you love
You make me believe
Fulfil all my fantasies
Moisten up all my warmest dreams
Hold my love in silk bandanas
And then just scream, scream it love
Cause it would make me weep
If I should ever lose your love
Cause you make me believe
But then you're sweet, sweet sweet love
And it makes me believe
That I should never lose your love
You make me believe
Sometimes my little baby girl
Occasionally you're my puttana
But then you're sweet, sweet sweet love
And it makes me believe
That I should never lose you love
You make me believe
Fulfil all my fantasies
Moisten up all my warmest dreams
Hold my love in silk bandanas
And then just scream, scream it love
Cause it would make me weep
If I should ever lose your love
Cause you make me believe
But then you're sweet, sweet sweet love
And it makes me believe
That I should never lose your love
You make me believe

Words For Girlfriends Lyrics By Simply Red
Do I feel jealousy when you're free without me?
Maybe
Do I feel that my love will stay with you forever?
Hopefully
In memoriam of my lovers will you sleep with me forever?
Oh most certainly I never did doubt you
You surround yourself with trinkets like they're meaningful possessions,
baby
Like some squirrel in the garden with expensive permutations,
Save me
They'll outlive you in the end will be your final realisation
Oh most certainly I never did doubt you
Words for girlfriends parading as songs
to be living with songs, yet without you
Words for girlfriends parading as songs
'Though I never ever really did doubt you, no...
As we search our lives forever for perfection in relations,
Ladies
I can dream of love and scheme of love with all its complications,
Shakily
Ideals are fine for beauty but for love they fool relations
Oh most certainly I never did doubt you
Words for girlfriends parading as songs
to be living with you, yet without you
Words for girlfriends parading as songs
'Though I never ever really did doubt you,
No I never ever really did doubt you
As we search our lives forever for perfection in relations,
Ladies
I can dream of love and scheme of love with all its complications...
They're just words, only words
Maybe
Do I feel that my love will stay with you forever?
Hopefully
In memoriam of my lovers will you sleep with me forever?
Oh most certainly I never did doubt you
You surround yourself with trinkets like they're meaningful possessions,
baby
Like some squirrel in the garden with expensive permutations,
Save me
They'll outlive you in the end will be your final realisation
Oh most certainly I never did doubt you
Words for girlfriends parading as songs
to be living with songs, yet without you
Words for girlfriends parading as songs
'Though I never ever really did doubt you, no...
As we search our lives forever for perfection in relations,
Ladies
I can dream of love and scheme of love with all its complications,
Shakily
Ideals are fine for beauty but for love they fool relations
Oh most certainly I never did doubt you
Words for girlfriends parading as songs
to be living with you, yet without you
Words for girlfriends parading as songs
'Though I never ever really did doubt you,
No I never ever really did doubt you
As we search our lives forever for perfection in relations,
Ladies
I can dream of love and scheme of love with all its complications...
They're just words, only words

Maybe Someday Lyrics By Simply Red
I've been a fool, talking to myself and no-one else
I play it cool, so cool that no-one ever understands me
Maybe one day someone will come
Now! Now
I didn't do the things I was supposed to do
You didn't move, you used me and I used you too
Maybe one day someone will come
Maybe one day someone will come
Why it's killing you, is a reason for yourself and no-one else
I couldn't move, you used it and it used you too
Maybe one day someone will come
Maybe one day someone will come
I play it cool, so cool that no-one ever understands me
Maybe one day someone will come
Now! Now
I didn't do the things I was supposed to do
You didn't move, you used me and I used you too
Maybe one day someone will come
Maybe one day someone will come
Why it's killing you, is a reason for yourself and no-one else
I couldn't move, you used it and it used you too
Maybe one day someone will come
Maybe one day someone will come

Stars Lyrics By Simply Red
Anyone who ever held you
Would tell you the way I'm feeling
Anyone who ever wanted you
Would try to tell you what I feel inside
The only thing I ever wanted
Was the feeling that you ain't faking
The only one you ever thought about
Wait a minute can't you see that I
I wanna fall from the stars
Straight into your arms
I, I feel you
I hope you comprehend
For the man who tried to hurt you
He's explaining the way I'm feeling
For all the jealousy I caused you
States the reason why I'm trying to hide
As for all the things you taught me
It sends my future into clearer dimensions
You'll never know how much you hurt me
Stay a minute can't you see that I
I wanna fall from the stars
Straight into your arms
I, I feel you
I hope you comprehend
Too many hearts are broken
A lover's promise never came with a maybe
So many words are left unspoken
The silent voices are driving me crazy
As for all the pain you caused me
Making up could never be your intention
You'll never know how much you hurt me
Stay can't you see that I
I wanna fall from the stars
Straight into your arms
I, I feel you
I hope you comprehend
Would tell you the way I'm feeling
Anyone who ever wanted you
Would try to tell you what I feel inside
The only thing I ever wanted
Was the feeling that you ain't faking
The only one you ever thought about
Wait a minute can't you see that I
I wanna fall from the stars
Straight into your arms
I, I feel you
I hope you comprehend
For the man who tried to hurt you
He's explaining the way I'm feeling
For all the jealousy I caused you
States the reason why I'm trying to hide
As for all the things you taught me
It sends my future into clearer dimensions
You'll never know how much you hurt me
Stay a minute can't you see that I
I wanna fall from the stars
Straight into your arms
I, I feel you
I hope you comprehend
Too many hearts are broken
A lover's promise never came with a maybe
So many words are left unspoken
The silent voices are driving me crazy
As for all the pain you caused me
Making up could never be your intention
You'll never know how much you hurt me
Stay can't you see that I
I wanna fall from the stars
Straight into your arms
I, I feel you
I hope you comprehend

So Beautiful Lyrics By Simply Red
I was listening to this conversation
Noticing my daydream stimulated me more
I was crumbling with anticipation
You'd better send me home before I tumble down to the floor
You're so beautiful but oh so boring
I'm wondering what am I doing here
So beautiful but oh so boring, I'm wondering
If anyone out there really cares
About the curlers in your hair
My little golden baby, where have all your birds flown now?
Something's glistening in my imagination
Motorvatin' something close to breaking the law
Wait a mo' before you take me down to the station
I've never known a one who'd make me suicidal before
She was so beautiful but oh so boring
I'm wondering what was I doing there
So beautiful but oh so boring, I'm wondering
If anyone out there really cares
About the colour of your hair
My little golden baby, where have all your birds flown now?
Noticing my daydream stimulated me more
I was crumbling with anticipation
You'd better send me home before I tumble down to the floor
You're so beautiful but oh so boring
I'm wondering what am I doing here
So beautiful but oh so boring, I'm wondering
If anyone out there really cares
About the curlers in your hair
My little golden baby, where have all your birds flown now?
Something's glistening in my imagination
Motorvatin' something close to breaking the law
Wait a mo' before you take me down to the station
I've never known a one who'd make me suicidal before
She was so beautiful but oh so boring
I'm wondering what was I doing there
So beautiful but oh so boring, I'm wondering
If anyone out there really cares
About the colour of your hair
My little golden baby, where have all your birds flown now?

Home Loan Blues Lyrics By Simply Red
Just a man, good and sometimes bad
But striving to do the best that I can
Help a hand when the one close by you falls
Understanding can do the rest and that ain't all
Hope I can please you but the truth isn't easy to say
The more that you're spending the more it'll get in your way
I say it to please you to forget what you have done, so pray
I got the blues from the debt of the people today
You can have it all but you've got to pay
You can have it all don't pay me today
Wotcha man as the bills around you grow
Providing you take a loan to pay for them all
Help a hand when the one close by you falls
Depending if the fool keeps spending it all
You can have it all but you've got to pay
(You can have it)
Credit cards, mortgage, home loans for your holiday
But striving to do the best that I can
Help a hand when the one close by you falls
Understanding can do the rest and that ain't all
Hope I can please you but the truth isn't easy to say
The more that you're spending the more it'll get in your way
I say it to please you to forget what you have done, so pray
I got the blues from the debt of the people today
You can have it all but you've got to pay
You can have it all don't pay me today
Wotcha man as the bills around you grow
Providing you take a loan to pay for them all
Help a hand when the one close by you falls
Depending if the fool keeps spending it all
You can have it all but you've got to pay
(You can have it)
Credit cards, mortgage, home loans for your holiday

For Your Babies Lyrics By Simply Red
You've got that look again
The one I hoped I had when I was a lad
Your face is just beaming
Your smile got me boasting, my pulse roller- coastering
Any way the four winds that blow
They're gonna send me sailing home to you
Or I'll fly with the force of a rainbow
The dream of gold will be waiting in your eyes
You know I'd do most anything you want
Hey I, I try to give you everything you need
I can see that it gets to you
I don't believe in many things
But in you I do
Her faith is amazing
The pain that she goes through contained in
The hope for you
Your whole world has changed
The years spent before seem more cloudy
Than blue
In many ways your baby's controlling
When you haven't laid down for days
For the poor no time to be thinking
They're too busy finding ways
You know I'd do most anything you want
Hey I, I try to give you everything you need
I'll see that it gets to you
I don't believe in many things
But in you I do
You know I'd do most anything you want
Every day I, try to give you everything you
Need
We'll always be there for you
I don't believe in many things
But in you I do
The one I hoped I had when I was a lad
Your face is just beaming
Your smile got me boasting, my pulse roller- coastering
Any way the four winds that blow
They're gonna send me sailing home to you
Or I'll fly with the force of a rainbow
The dream of gold will be waiting in your eyes
You know I'd do most anything you want
Hey I, I try to give you everything you need
I can see that it gets to you
I don't believe in many things
But in you I do
Her faith is amazing
The pain that she goes through contained in
The hope for you
Your whole world has changed
The years spent before seem more cloudy
Than blue
In many ways your baby's controlling
When you haven't laid down for days
For the poor no time to be thinking
They're too busy finding ways
You know I'd do most anything you want
Hey I, I try to give you everything you need
I'll see that it gets to you
I don't believe in many things
But in you I do
You know I'd do most anything you want
Every day I, try to give you everything you
Need
We'll always be there for you
I don't believe in many things
But in you I do

The Air That I Breathe Lyrics By Simply Red
If I could make a wish I think I'd pass
Can't think of anything I need
No cigarettes, no sleep, no light, no sound
Nothing to eat no books to read
Making love with you, has left me peaceful warm inside
What more could I ask
There's nothing left to be desired
Sometimes all I need is the air that I breathe and to love you
All I need is the air that I breathe yes to love you
Just to have you now
All I need is the air that I breathe you're all I want
Peace came upon me and it breathes in me
Don't sleep silent angel don't you sleep
Sometimes all I need is the air that I breathe and to love you just to have you now
All I need is the air that I breathe yes to love you
All I need is the air that I breathe you're all I want
Sometimes all I need is the air that I breathe and to love you
All I need is the air that I breathe yes to love you
All I need is the air that I breathe
Sometimes all I need is the air that I breathe and to love you
All I need is the air that I breathe yes to love you
All I need is the air that I breathe
Can't think of anything I need
No cigarettes, no sleep, no light, no sound
Nothing to eat no books to read
Making love with you, has left me peaceful warm inside
What more could I ask
There's nothing left to be desired
Sometimes all I need is the air that I breathe and to love you
All I need is the air that I breathe yes to love you
Just to have you now
All I need is the air that I breathe you're all I want
Peace came upon me and it breathes in me
Don't sleep silent angel don't you sleep
Sometimes all I need is the air that I breathe and to love you just to have you now
All I need is the air that I breathe yes to love you
All I need is the air that I breathe you're all I want
Sometimes all I need is the air that I breathe and to love you
All I need is the air that I breathe yes to love you
All I need is the air that I breathe
Sometimes all I need is the air that I breathe and to love you
All I need is the air that I breathe yes to love you
All I need is the air that I breathe

You've Got It Lyrics By Simply Red
This impossible power
A strength that I can't see
There's no way
That I can let you go
Why did I mistake sex
For another sense
Then wanted someone else
To try to tell you no
I think you understand
Oh that you've got it
I try hard but I can't
Oh do without it
I think you understand
That you've got it
This impossible power
Has broken into me
And stolen all the sense
That I had before
Why did I just take
And never understand
The love you've given me
Could've learnt me more
I think you understand
Oh that you've got it
I try hard but I can't
Oh do without it
I think you understand
That you've got it
What made you think
That I'd be true to you
I needed to
Prove it to myself
That I could let you go
What made you think that
I'd be a fool for you
You knew that I was lying
There was something
I was hiding
I think you understand
Oh that you've got it
Well I try hard but I can't
Oh do without it
A strength that I can't see
There's no way
That I can let you go
Why did I mistake sex
For another sense
Then wanted someone else
To try to tell you no
I think you understand
Oh that you've got it
I try hard but I can't
Oh do without it
I think you understand
That you've got it
This impossible power
Has broken into me
And stolen all the sense
That I had before
Why did I just take
And never understand
The love you've given me
Could've learnt me more
I think you understand
Oh that you've got it
I try hard but I can't
Oh do without it
I think you understand
That you've got it
What made you think
That I'd be true to you
I needed to
Prove it to myself
That I could let you go
What made you think that
I'd be a fool for you
You knew that I was lying
There was something
I was hiding
I think you understand
Oh that you've got it
Well I try hard but I can't
Oh do without it

Positively 4th Street Lyrics By Simply Red
You got a lotta nerve
To say you are my friend
When I was down
You just stood there grinning
You got a lotta nerve
To say you gotta helping hand to lend
You just want to be on
The side that's winning
You say I let you down
You know it's not like that
If you're so hurt
Why then don't you show it
You say you lost your faith
But that's not where it's at
You had no faith to lose
And you know it
I know the reason
That you talk behind my back
I used to be among the crowd
You're in with
Do you take me for such a fool
To think I'd make contact
With the one who tries to hide
What he don't know to begin with
You see me on the street
You always act surprised
You say, "How are you?" "Good luck"
But you don't mean it
When you know as well as me
You'd rather see me paralyzed
Why don't you just come out once
And scream it
No, I do not feel that good
When I see the heartbreaks you embrace
If I was a master thief
Perhaps I'd rob them
And now I know you're dissatisfied
With your position and your place
Don't you understand
It's not my problem
I wish that for just one time
You could stand inside my shoes
And just for that one moment
I could be you
Yes, I wish that for just one time
You could stand inside my shoes
You'd know what a drag it is
To see you
To say you are my friend
When I was down
You just stood there grinning
You got a lotta nerve
To say you gotta helping hand to lend
You just want to be on
The side that's winning
You say I let you down
You know it's not like that
If you're so hurt
Why then don't you show it
You say you lost your faith
But that's not where it's at
You had no faith to lose
And you know it
I know the reason
That you talk behind my back
I used to be among the crowd
You're in with
Do you take me for such a fool
To think I'd make contact
With the one who tries to hide
What he don't know to begin with
You see me on the street
You always act surprised
You say, "How are you?" "Good luck"
But you don't mean it
When you know as well as me
You'd rather see me paralyzed
Why don't you just come out once
And scream it
No, I do not feel that good
When I see the heartbreaks you embrace
If I was a master thief

And now I know you're dissatisfied
With your position and your place
Don't you understand
It's not my problem

You could stand inside my shoes
And just for that one moment
I could be you
Yes, I wish that for just one time
You could stand inside my shoes
You'd know what a drag it is
To see you

Ev'ry Time We Say Goodbye Lyrics By Simply Red
Ev'ry time we say goodbye I die a little
Ev'ry time we say goodbye I wonder why a little
Why the Gods above me who must be in the know
Think so little of me they allow you to go
When you're near there's such an air of spring about it
I can hear a lark somewhere waiting to sing about it
There's no love song finer
But how strange The change from major to minor
Ev'ry time we say goodbye.
When you're near there's such an air of spring about it
I can hear a lark somewhere waiting to sing about it
There's no love song finer
But how strange The change from major to minor
Ev'ry time we say goodbye.
Ev'ry time we say goodbye I wonder why a little
Why the Gods above me who must be in the know
Think so little of me they allow you to go
When you're near there's such an air of spring about it
I can hear a lark somewhere waiting to sing about it
There's no love song finer
But how strange The change from major to minor
Ev'ry time we say goodbye.
When you're near there's such an air of spring about it
I can hear a lark somewhere waiting to sing about it
There's no love song finer
But how strange The change from major to minor
Ev'ry time we say goodbye.

No Direction Lyrics By Simply Red
Singing hymns on roads and pavements
Hungry jims, no-one saves them
Walkin' north, talkin' south
With firm intention
And I don't know what I'm talking about
It's firm intention
[Chorus:]
In this dreary life, with no direction
What this cause says about my life
And no direction. No direction!!!
To enter a place like an alien
To leave a place like an alien
What's this calling? What's this calling?
Firm intention
Better feel it, better believe it
Firm intention
[Chorus:]
In this dreary life, with no direction
What this cause says about my life
And no direction. No direction!!!
Watch that feeling, watch that feeling
Or I'll grab it, or I'll grab it
Watch that feeling, watch that feeling
Or I'll grab it, or I'll grab it
[Chorus:]
In this dreary life, with no direction
What this cause says about my life
And no direction.
No direction!!!
Hungry jims, no-one saves them
Walkin' north, talkin' south
With firm intention
And I don't know what I'm talking about
It's firm intention
[Chorus:]
In this dreary life, with no direction
What this cause says about my life
And no direction. No direction!!!
To enter a place like an alien
To leave a place like an alien
What's this calling? What's this calling?
Firm intention
Better feel it, better believe it
Firm intention
[Chorus:]
In this dreary life, with no direction
What this cause says about my life
And no direction. No direction!!!
Watch that feeling, watch that feeling
Or I'll grab it, or I'll grab it
Watch that feeling, watch that feeling
Or I'll grab it, or I'll grab it
[Chorus:]
In this dreary life, with no direction
What this cause says about my life
And no direction.
No direction!!!

Out On The Range Lyrics By Simply Red
It's lonely out on the range
That open space they call country
I wanted you, I couldn't have you
Your pills left you kind of deranged
Hopelessly caged like some monkey
I wanted you, I couldn't have you
Still into my heart you came
Here's a message from this lonely boy
Who will never feel the same
I will never feel the same
I read you while holding the page
You're open at crazy and funky
I needed you, but you weren't there
Happiness can give you the blues
Especially when it ends
I'm slowing down, can't turn you round
Into my heart you came
Here's a message from this lonely boy
Who will never feel the same
I will never feel the same
That open space they call country
I wanted you, I couldn't have you
Your pills left you kind of deranged
Hopelessly caged like some monkey
I wanted you, I couldn't have you
Still into my heart you came
Here's a message from this lonely boy
Who will never feel the same
I will never feel the same
I read you while holding the page
You're open at crazy and funky
I needed you, but you weren't there
Happiness can give you the blues
Especially when it ends
I'm slowing down, can't turn you round
Into my heart you came
Here's a message from this lonely boy
Who will never feel the same
I will never feel the same

Good Times Have Done Me Wrong Lyrics By Simply Red
I drank a lot
Spent too much
Gave a lot
Screwed up a lot
Now good times you've done me wrong, so wrong

Still, good times, you've done me wrong, so wrong

Remember all the good times
Remember all the good times
Remember all the good times
Good times, good times
Good times, good times

I never really cared too much
Good times you've done me wrong
Now good times, so wrong
[Chorus (rpt to fade)]
Spent too much

Love Lays Its Tune Lyrics By Simply Red
Last night I made love for the first time
She gave me her soul, I surely gave her mine
We lay there just crying with both joy and gloom
The joy of what we had and the pain left
Where love lays its tune
Love tears you down
Oh turns you round
My heart bears the scars of emotional wounds
I'm scared so it's hard to give myself to you
Hurt builds a wall round our hearts it's true
The brave learn to live with the good and bad
Where love lays its tune
Love tears you down
Oh turns you round
Oh I swear I'd do anything for you little girl
Nothing stupid or wrong but something
That'll make me true little girl
Love tears you down
Oh turns you round
She gave me her soul, I surely gave her mine
We lay there just crying with both joy and gloom
The joy of what we had and the pain left
Where love lays its tune
Love tears you down
Oh turns you round
My heart bears the scars of emotional wounds
I'm scared so it's hard to give myself to you
Hurt builds a wall round our hearts it's true
The brave learn to live with the good and bad
Where love lays its tune
Love tears you down
Oh turns you round
Oh I swear I'd do anything for you little girl
Nothing stupid or wrong but something
That'll make me true little girl
Love tears you down
Oh turns you round

Something For You Lyrics By Simply Red
Anyone would cry over you
Too bad if they do
But baby I could try if you want me to
To help you let yourself go
Any man would die for you
But they're mad if they do
But baby let me get closer to you
So I can let you know
I got something for you
The joy of letting you know what you have done for me
Loving you has smiled on the face of a lonely man
Loving you has pride in the place of our home again
Loving you has smiled on the face of a lonely man
Loving you has pride in the place of our home again
Smile on the face of a lonely man
Pride in the place of our home again
Smile on the face
Pride in the place
When I get tired I'm gonna try
Let you wonder why
Any man would die
Too bad if they do
But baby I could try if you want me to
To help you let yourself go
Any man would die for you
But they're mad if they do
But baby let me get closer to you
So I can let you know
I got something for you
The joy of letting you know what you have done for me
Loving you has smiled on the face of a lonely man
Loving you has pride in the place of our home again
Loving you has smiled on the face of a lonely man
Loving you has pride in the place of our home again
Smile on the face of a lonely man
Pride in the place of our home again
Smile on the face
Pride in the place
When I get tired I'm gonna try
Let you wonder why
Any man would die

Jericho Lyrics By Simply Red
Listen boy, I'll tell you a thing
I'll make you a career in the business I'm in
I'll make you rich, I'll make you a toy
I'll make you turn over into my little boy
Y'see I'm going somewhere
I don't know what I'm gonna do when I get there
I know money's a thing - your only inspiration
And your only meaning
You must think that all I do
Is spend my time making pretty pictures of you
You can fall when I will climb
But I'll be falling over just by having you in my mind
[1st chorus]
Mend that fight - oh listen to them
Kickin' up a ball inside a jericho wall
Mend that fight - it's all twisted through them
If you ain't rich then you won't go to the ball
Having mercy and licking up love
And moving through your ocean like I've never had enough
Y'see you ain't all I want
You're everything and more that I have ever hoped for
You must think that all I do
Is spend my time making pretty pictures of you
You can fall when I will climb
But I'll be falling over just by having you in my mind
[1st chorus]
Mend that fight - oh listen to them
Kickin' up a ball inside a jericho wall
Mend that fight - it's all twisted through them
I'm rich, you ain't, so you won't go to the ball
[2nd chorus]
You won't go to the ball
You won't go to the ball
You won't go, you won't go
You won't go to the ball
[repeat]
You must think that all I do
Is spend my time making pretty pictures of you
You can fall when I will climb
But I'll be falling over just by having you in my mind
[1st chorus]
Mend that fight - oh listen to them
Kickin' up a ball outside a no. 10 wall
Mend that fight - it's all twisted through them
I'm rich, you ain't, so you won't go to the ball
No more!
[2nd chorus]
You won't go to the ball
You won't go to the ball
You won't go, you won't go
You won't go to the ball
[repeat]
[Outro:]
Yeah, if you ain't got nothing
You'll never go there
[repeat]
I tried to make you see
I tell you I'd had enough
Money was a thing, money was a thing
Money was a thing that I believed in
[repeat]
I'll make you a career in the business I'm in
I'll make you rich, I'll make you a toy
I'll make you turn over into my little boy
Y'see I'm going somewhere
I don't know what I'm gonna do when I get there
I know money's a thing - your only inspiration
And your only meaning
You must think that all I do

But I'll be falling over just by having you in my mind

You won't go to the ball
You won't go to the ball
You won't go, you won't go
You won't go to the ball

You won't go to the ball
You won't go, you won't go
You won't go to the ball

Yeah, if you ain't got nothing
You'll never go there
[repeat]
I tried to make you see
I tell you I'd had enough
Money was a thing, money was a thing
Money was a thing that I believed in

Suffer Lyrics By Simply Red
Something deep inside of me
That when it comes it won't bring too much prolong
I don't know how hard it'll be when I suffer
Affection is a start for me, I hope it's gonna move on
This time it's gonna be hard for me, I don't wanna suffer
I fight it hard when it tears my heart
Oh when I want someone I gotta have someone
And when I come to the conclusion
So scared I don't want to fall
Please don't make me suffer
Please don't make me suffer
Did he break his broken heart for you
Oh no mother, he never loved a single other person
This time it's gonna be hard for me, I don't want to suffer
I fight it hard when it tears my heart
Oh when I want someone I gotta have someone
And when I come to the conclusion
So scared I don't want to fall
Please don't make me suffer
Please don't make me suffer
I'm not hard enough, I'm not strong enough
Don't make me suffer
That when it comes it won't bring too much prolong
I don't know how hard it'll be when I suffer
Affection is a start for me, I hope it's gonna move on
This time it's gonna be hard for me, I don't wanna suffer
I fight it hard when it tears my heart
Oh when I want someone I gotta have someone
And when I come to the conclusion
So scared I don't want to fall
Please don't make me suffer
Please don't make me suffer
Did he break his broken heart for you
Oh no mother, he never loved a single other person
This time it's gonna be hard for me, I don't want to suffer
I fight it hard when it tears my heart
Oh when I want someone I gotta have someone
And when I come to the conclusion
So scared I don't want to fall
Please don't make me suffer
Please don't make me suffer
I'm not hard enough, I'm not strong enough
Don't make me suffer

Money In My Pocket (plan B Mix) Lyrics By Simply Red
Money in my pocket but I just can't get no love
Money in my pocket but I just can't get no love
I'm praying for
A girl to be my own
Soon you said she coming but I don't believe a word she say
Cause she run away and left me one rainy day
She made me had in mind
That her love would never die
And now I'm alone, so alone
So alone, yeah, yeah
Money in my pocket but I just can't get no love
Money in my pocket but I just can't get no love
The love I had in mind
Was very, very hard to find
It's hard for a man to live without a woman
And a woman needs a man to cling to
You'll see what love can do
After making me feel blue
Ain't that a shame, whoa baby
Ain't that a shame
To make me feel blue
I've got money in my pocket
Money in my pocket but I just can't get no love
I'm praying for
A girl to be my own
Soon you said she coming but I don't believe a word she say
Cause she run away and left me one rainy day
She made me had in mind
That her love would never die
And now I'm alone, so alone
So alone, yeah, yeah
Money in my pocket but I just can't get no love
Money in my pocket but I just can't get no love
The love I had in mind
Was very, very hard to find
It's hard for a man to live without a woman
And a woman needs a man to cling to
You'll see what love can do
After making me feel blue
Ain't that a shame, whoa baby
Ain't that a shame
To make me feel blue
I've got money in my pocket

Thrill Me Lyrics By Simply Red
OK, I'm the one who took you for granted
I've made my mistakes, wake up let's not
Break up
Thrill me you've got a love so strong
Thrill me you really turn me on
Thrill me wait till tomorrow night
Thrill me I'm gonna treat you right
You said that I would never let you be alone
How many times have you been on your own
Worked all the days to find the things you try
To do
If only my heart would never let you through
Because you
Thrill me you've got a love so strong
Thrill me you just can't do me wrong
Thrill me wait till tomorrow night
Thrill me I'm gonna treat you right
The truth is you've gone and left me on my own
How can I face the fact you're really gone
Love was a phase we'd have to pray to make
It true
If only my heart would've never let you through
Because you
Thrill me you've got a love so strong
Thrill me you really turn me on
Thrill me wait till tomorrow night
Thrill me I'm gonna treat you right
I've made my mistakes, wake up let's not
Break up
Thrill me you've got a love so strong
Thrill me you really turn me on
Thrill me wait till tomorrow night
Thrill me I'm gonna treat you right
You said that I would never let you be alone
How many times have you been on your own
Worked all the days to find the things you try
To do
If only my heart would never let you through
Because you
Thrill me you've got a love so strong
Thrill me you just can't do me wrong
Thrill me wait till tomorrow night
Thrill me I'm gonna treat you right
The truth is you've gone and left me on my own
How can I face the fact you're really gone
Love was a phase we'd have to pray to make
It true
If only my heart would've never let you through
Because you
Thrill me you've got a love so strong
Thrill me you really turn me on
Thrill me wait till tomorrow night

Let Me Have It All Lyrics By Simply Red
You have turned into a prayer
I can feel I'm almost there
Closer closer to the top
Looking down is quite a drop
Let me have it all
Let me have it all
You set up a barrier
Don't you know I'd marry ya
Can't explain how you make me feel
Looking down is mighty real
Make me feel like a king
Everything is everything
Let me have it all
Let me have it all
You set up a barrier
Don't you know I'd marry ya
Just to be near you is to be
Just so you can give it to me
Let me have it all
Let me have it all
I can feel I'm almost there
Closer closer to the top
Looking down is quite a drop
Let me have it all
Let me have it all
You set up a barrier
Don't you know I'd marry ya
Can't explain how you make me feel
Looking down is mighty real
Make me feel like a king
Everything is everything
Let me have it all
Let me have it all
You set up a barrier
Don't you know I'd marry ya
Just to be near you is to be
Just so you can give it to me
Let me have it all

Lost Weekend Lyrics By Simply Red
(Sunshine in my soul)
(Sunshine in my soul)
My lost weekend
Been more now than a year
Oh I hoped not
'Cause since you put me down
My world merely spins around
Did you play me for your fool?
Oh honey, I know you didn't mean to
'Cause you tremble with a problem
You carry the weight of pain from the past
The sunshine in my soul is here to tell you
That pain doesn't have to last
The love that's in my heart is here to pray
That pain will go away
Feel it honey
Blowin' away
My lost weekend
More now than a year
Oh and it goes on
'Cause since you let me down
My world merely spins around
Did you play me for your fool
Oh honey I know you didn't mean to
'Cause you're pent up with a problem
You carry the weight of pain from the past
The sunshine in my soul is here to tell you
That pain doesn't have to last
The love that's in my heart is here to say
That pain will go away
The sunshine in my soul is here to tell you
That pain doesn't have to last no, no
The love that's in my heart is here to pray
That pain will go away
Watch that pain go away
Feel it honey

Man Made The Gun Lyrics By Simply Red
Man made the gun a sado-sexual machine
It's slaughter brings you to your knees
Man made the gun
Who is the person that is holding on?
What's in his mind, where is he looking from?
Isn't he the one we should be gazing on, contemplating on?
'Cos man made the gun
Man shapes the son
Man made the gun
While there is evil in this world
We try to save our boys and girls
Man made the bomb
That doesn't mean that we should turn them on
Or ever yearn him on
'Cos man made the gun
Man shapes the son
Man made it, man made it
It's slaughter brings you to your knees
Man made the gun
Who is the person that is holding on?
What's in his mind, where is he looking from?
Isn't he the one we should be gazing on, contemplating on?
'Cos man made the gun
Man shapes the son
Man made the gun
While there is evil in this world
We try to save our boys and girls
Man made the bomb
That doesn't mean that we should turn them on
Or ever yearn him on
'Cos man made the gun
Man shapes the son
Man made it, man made it

High Fives Lyrics By Simply Red
High fives, truly night jive
Living in the night time
Soul man, golden old man
Weathering the time sands
This whole rhythm gives me what I need
Praying hard as your lifetime

White lines fooling my kind
Living for the night time
Hold hands, home in old land
Weathering the time sands
This whole rhythm gives me what I need
Praying hard as your lifetime
Praying hard as your lifetime
Praying hard as your lifetime goes by
Goes by
Living in the night time
Soul man, golden old man
Weathering the time sands
This whole rhythm gives me what I need
Praying hard as your lifetime

Lady Lyrics By Simply Red
Your indulgence of your freedom ignores me
Your freedom to express your confusion shames all of us
As if being a lady will make it easier
By being a lady it will make love life clearer
I hope that you get what you think you want some day baby
And I pray that you get the approval you're craving
This beautiful lady can overtake all of us
Funny this kind of lady seems to make our lives clearer
[Chorus:]
I could turn on a leaf and let you burn
Beg you for relief when it's my turn
Help me to help you help me learn
Ah lady! You make life breathe easier
But don't blame me if your life sheds a tear
The feverish time we spend alone it soothes me
But too many days spent apart alone they just confuse me
Part of being a lady you love it when I miss you more
And without pontificating its you I'm adorin'
[Chorus]
Ah Lady! Oh Lady!
Crazy! Ooh Lady!
Ah baby! Ooh you make me crazy!
Your freedom to express your confusion shames all of us
As if being a lady will make it easier
By being a lady it will make love life clearer
I hope that you get what you think you want some day baby
And I pray that you get the approval you're craving
This beautiful lady can overtake all of us
Funny this kind of lady seems to make our lives clearer
[Chorus:]
I could turn on a leaf and let you burn
Beg you for relief when it's my turn
Help me to help you help me learn
Ah lady! You make life breathe easier
But don't blame me if your life sheds a tear
The feverish time we spend alone it soothes me
But too many days spent apart alone they just confuse me
Part of being a lady you love it when I miss you more
And without pontificating its you I'm adorin'
[Chorus]
Ah Lady! Oh Lady!
Crazy! Ooh Lady!
Ah baby! Ooh you make me crazy!

Lives And Loves Lyrics By Simply Red
Lives and loves, don't tell me about it
To respond to something permanent, you've got to be strong
Mmm : lives and loves
Only you know in your heart how the pain felt
How the love made you melt, me and you love
We have a way that seems to brighten up the day
We have our problems
Is the whole world asking is it worth it?
All the lovers in the world, should they go on?
After all, they say you only live once
Lives and loves, only you know in your heart
How the pain felt, how the love made you melt
Me and you love, we have a way
That seems to brighten up the day
We have our problems
Is the whole world asking is it worth it?
All the lovers in the world, should they go on?
On and on and on
Oohhh, lives and loves, don't tell me about it
Someone always gets hurt in it, you've got to be strong
Hey: lives and loves
Only we know in our hearts how the pain felt
Oh your love made me melt, me and you love
We had a way that seemed to brighten up the day
We had our problems
Is the whole world asking is it worth it?
All the lovers in the world, should they go on?
After all, they say you only live once
To respond to something permanent, you've got to be strong
Mmm : lives and loves
Only you know in your heart how the pain felt
How the love made you melt, me and you love
We have a way that seems to brighten up the day
We have our problems
Is the whole world asking is it worth it?
All the lovers in the world, should they go on?
After all, they say you only live once
Lives and loves, only you know in your heart
How the pain felt, how the love made you melt
Me and you love, we have a way
That seems to brighten up the day
We have our problems
Is the whole world asking is it worth it?
All the lovers in the world, should they go on?
On and on and on
Oohhh, lives and loves, don't tell me about it
Someone always gets hurt in it, you've got to be strong
Hey: lives and loves
Only we know in our hearts how the pain felt
Oh your love made me melt, me and you love
We had a way that seemed to brighten up the day
We had our problems
Is the whole world asking is it worth it?
All the lovers in the world, should they go on?
After all, they say you only live once

Blue Lyrics By Simply Red
I'm blue, blue like a Monday morning
Raised up in a way that I can value
All the material things that I could ever really need don't matter
So many ways that I can thank you
But you know that I am here and no-one else in this world will matter
I'm blue, blue like a Monday morning
It's true, it's you that's got me yearning
For a love that will last forever
Wishing that somebody somewhere
Would break through these wrought iron doors and just smile
Because I'm blue
I can't get emote to try and tell you
All the love that I have
Am I ever gonna make it happen?
So many ways that I can thank you
But you know that I'm here and no-one else in this
world will matter
I'm blue, blue like a Monday morning
It's true, it's you that's got me yearning
Because I'm blue. Nobody knows that I'm blue
Raised up in a way that I can value
All the material things that I could ever really need don't matter
So many ways that I can thank you
But you know that I am here and no-one else in this world will matter
I'm blue, blue like a Monday morning
It's true, it's you that's got me yearning
For a love that will last forever
Wishing that somebody somewhere
Would break through these wrought iron doors and just smile
Because I'm blue
I can't get emote to try and tell you
All the love that I have
Am I ever gonna make it happen?
So many ways that I can thank you
But you know that I'm here and no-one else in this
world will matter
I'm blue, blue like a Monday morning
It's true, it's you that's got me yearning
Because I'm blue. Nobody knows that I'm blue

Someday In My Life Lyrics By Simply Red
Here from the top of a mountain
I see you there
In the cool night air
Someday in my life
Fear has no reason to doubt them
They tell me so
Yet they will never know
You are here in my life
Wherever I go now
I'll follow you
And my heart will be true
I have never known someone
To stay right here
Soon you will be right here
Someday in my life
[Piano solo]
Here from the top of a mountain
I see you there
In the cool night air
Someday in my life
Storms may rage on about them
They hail and snow
Yet they will never know
You are here in my life
Wherever I go now
I'll follow you
And my heart will be true
I have never known someone
To stay right here
Soon you will be right here
Someday in my life
I see you there
In the cool night air
Someday in my life
Fear has no reason to doubt them
They tell me so
Yet they will never know
You are here in my life
Wherever I go now
I'll follow you
And my heart will be true
I have never known someone
To stay right here
Soon you will be right here
Someday in my life
[Piano solo]
Here from the top of a mountain
I see you there
In the cool night air
Someday in my life
Storms may rage on about them
They hail and snow
Yet they will never know
You are here in my life
Wherever I go now
I'll follow you
And my heart will be true
I have never known someone
To stay right here
Soon you will be right here
Someday in my life

Heaven Lyrics By Simply Red
Ev'ryone is trying to get to the bar
The name of the bar
The bar is called heaven
The band in heaven
They play my fav'rite song
They play it once again
They play it all night long
[Chorus:]
Heaven
Heaven is a place
A place where nothing
Nothing ever happens
Heaven
Heaven is a place
A place where nothing
Nothing ever happens
There is a party, everyone is there
Everyone will leave at exactly the same time
It's hard to imagine that nothing at all
Could be so exciting, could be so much fun
[Chorus:]
Heaven
Heaven is a place
A place where nothing
Nothing ever happens
Heaven
Heaven is a place
A place where nothing
Nothing ever happens
When this kiss is over it will start again
It will not be any different, it will be exactly the same
It's hard to imagine that nothing at all
Could be so exciting, could be so much fun
[Chorus:]

Mellow My Mind Lyrics By Simply Red
Baby mellow my mind
Make me feel, like a schoolboy on good time
Jugglin' nickels and dimes
Satisfied with the fish on the line
I've been down the road and I've come back
Lonesome whistle on the railroad track
Ain't got nothin' on those feelings that I had
Something so hard to find
A situation, that could casualise your mind
I've been down the road and I've come back
Lonesome whistle on the railroad track
Ain't got nothin' on those feelings that I had
I've been down the road and I've come back
Lonesome whistle on the railroad track
Ain't got nothin' on those feelings that I had.
Baby mellow my mind
Make me feel, like a schoolboy on good time
Jugglin' nickels and dimes
Satisfied with a fish on the line.
Make me feel, like a schoolboy on good time
Jugglin' nickels and dimes
Satisfied with the fish on the line
I've been down the road and I've come back
Lonesome whistle on the railroad track
Ain't got nothin' on those feelings that I had
Something so hard to find
A situation, that could casualise your mind
I've been down the road and I've come back
Lonesome whistle on the railroad track
Ain't got nothin' on those feelings that I had
I've been down the road and I've come back
Lonesome whistle on the railroad track
Ain't got nothin' on those feelings that I had.
Baby mellow my mind
Make me feel, like a schoolboy on good time
Jugglin' nickels and dimes
Satisfied with a fish on the line.

Infidelity Lyrics By Simply Red
When a man just can't be trusted
And again he's gone and lost it
Your call has been registered
It'll be returned when I get back home
I've been out loving all night long
I can't help it, that love it makes me strong
When a man just can't be trusted
And again he's gone and lost it
Ask me all the questions you need
I don't tell lies, my conscience don't bleed
You'll get all the time I can give
As long as you respect my freedom to live
When a man just can't be trusted
And again he's gone and lost it
I just can't be trusted
A kick in the ribs for the arrival late at night
So late in the evening you could see the morning light
When you're sat up alone and you wonder where I've been
You can pick up my belongings and tell me where I can take them
When a man just can't be trusted
And again he's gone and lost it
I just can't be trusted
Infidelity
And again he's gone and lost it
Your call has been registered
It'll be returned when I get back home
I've been out loving all night long
I can't help it, that love it makes me strong
When a man just can't be trusted
And again he's gone and lost it
Ask me all the questions you need
I don't tell lies, my conscience don't bleed
You'll get all the time I can give
As long as you respect my freedom to live
When a man just can't be trusted
And again he's gone and lost it
I just can't be trusted
A kick in the ribs for the arrival late at night
So late in the evening you could see the morning light
When you're sat up alone and you wonder where I've been
You can pick up my belongings and tell me where I can take them
When a man just can't be trusted
And again he's gone and lost it
I just can't be trusted
Infidelity

The World And You Tonight Lyrics By Simply Red
Don't rush around
The world will wait for you
And too much time is lost
On all the things we have to do
There's nothing more important baby
Right now than you and me
So come a little closer darling
And turn the lights down low a key
And life could be so wonderful
A perfect home and a family
When you're lying next to me
I'm everything I want to be
With the world and you tonight
With the world and you tonight
With you my love
The world's a better place
And every day with you
Will hold a treasured memory
Your embrace
Could steal me forever
And nothing else matters
When I hold you in my arms
And life could be so wonderful
A perfect home and a family
'Cos you are everything to me
I'm the lock and you're the key
To the world and me tonight
To the world and me tonight
It's the world and you tonight
You are my world
With the world and me tonight
The world will wait for you
And too much time is lost
On all the things we have to do
There's nothing more important baby
Right now than you and me
So come a little closer darling
And turn the lights down low a key
And life could be so wonderful
A perfect home and a family
When you're lying next to me
I'm everything I want to be
With the world and you tonight
With the world and you tonight
With you my love
The world's a better place
And every day with you
Will hold a treasured memory
Your embrace
Could steal me forever
And nothing else matters
When I hold you in my arms
And life could be so wonderful
A perfect home and a family
'Cos you are everything to me
I'm the lock and you're the key
To the world and me tonight
To the world and me tonight
It's the world and you tonight
You are my world
With the world and me tonight

I Won't Feel Bad Lyrics By Simply Red
If I said you were evil
You'd knock me off my feet
If I said you're a good girl
You'd bore me off my seat
You'll never see me walking
Down a guilty middle-class street
I'm frequently appalled
By them pretending to be poor men
I'd give you all I can now
I don't have enough arms for you
Ask the people with the real cash
Institutions who are taking yours and mine
I won't feel guilty, I won't feel bad
I won't feel guilty, I won't feel bad
It's written in the books
In the literature that I've read
Temporary blindness
Breezing through the fog again
You'll never see me walking
Down a guilty middle-class street
I'm frequently appalled
By them pretending to be poor men
I'd give you all I can now
I don't have enough arms for you
Ask the people with the real cash
Institutions who are taking yours and mine
I won't feel guilty, I won't feel bad
I won't feel guilty, I won't feel bad
I never get enough of it
I won't feel guilty, I won't feel bad
I won't feel guilty, I won't feel bad
Bad Bad Bad!!!
You'd knock me off my feet
If I said you're a good girl
You'd bore me off my seat
You'll never see me walking
Down a guilty middle-class street
I'm frequently appalled
By them pretending to be poor men
I'd give you all I can now
I don't have enough arms for you
Ask the people with the real cash
Institutions who are taking yours and mine
I won't feel guilty, I won't feel bad
I won't feel guilty, I won't feel bad
It's written in the books
In the literature that I've read
Temporary blindness
Breezing through the fog again
You'll never see me walking
Down a guilty middle-class street
I'm frequently appalled
By them pretending to be poor men
I'd give you all I can now
I don't have enough arms for you
Ask the people with the real cash
Institutions who are taking yours and mine
I won't feel guilty, I won't feel bad
I won't feel guilty, I won't feel bad
I never get enough of it
I won't feel guilty, I won't feel bad
I won't feel guilty, I won't feel bad

Money's Too Tight To Mention Lyrics By Simply Red
I been laid off from work
My rent is due
My kids all need
Brand new shoes
So I went to the bank
To see what they could do
They said son - looks like bad luck
Got-a hold on you
[Chorus:]
Money's too tight to mention
I can't get an un-em-ploy-ment ex-ten-sion
Money's too tight to mention
I went to my brother
To see what he could do -
He said bro-ther like to help you
But I'm unable to
So I called on my fa-ther fa-ther
Oh my fa-ther
He said
[Chorus:]
Money's too tight to mention
Oh mo-ney mo-ney mo-ney mon-ey
Mo-ney's too tight to mention
I can't even qual-i-fy for my pension
We talk a-bout rea-gan-on-ics
Oh lord down in the con-gress
They're passing all kinds - of bills
From down cap-it-ol hill - (we've tried them)

When the mon-ey's got a hold on you?

Oh mon-ey mon-ey mon-ey mon-ey

A-mero - mon-ey oh yeah

The Death Of The Cool Lyrics By Simply Red
My shyness, my misunderstood
My misunderstanding
My destiny is grounded, by confounding weights
As Hollywood greats inspire me to keep my body whole
Since I've been the master of low expectations
Aren't you humans supposed to look like me?
Quotes like "buddy I blew you up
Then gave you a band aid"
Pseudo spiritual kebababallah's we can all be fooled
It's the death of the cool
The death of the cool
We got fakirs, false prophets and fools
And phoney saint saviours
Fame's pick me up gets drowned in
Pop's twinkle and dreams torn at the seams
It can leave you with nothing left at all
Since we're the believers with tall expectations
Can't you humans come have a laugh with me?
Quotes like "buddy I screwed you up, made you the new slave
The fastest growing guru in the market place of happiness
We can all be saved
"Buddy I blew you up, gave you a band aid"
Do you really need to learn to be a human?
We can all be shamed
Its the death of the cool
The death of the cool
Quotes like "buddy I blew you up, gave you a condom"
Do you really need to learn to save a human?
We could all be blamed
Buddy I blew you up
The death of the cool
[repeat]
My misunderstanding
My destiny is grounded, by confounding weights

Turn It Up Lyrics By Simply Red
Turn it up, turn it so loud
It don't ever stop
No no no no
Turn it up, makes me so proud
I believe in this feeling
Well you've lost all the things
That sharing could bring
Thought you were doing right
But violence and flames
And torches and chains
Are fuelling
These new northern lights
Like prisoners working
On infertile land
Took eight years
To find out the score
If you're sick then you're lonely
Out of work then you're hungry
The sentence is four years more
Turn it up, turn it so loud
It don't ever stop
No no no no
Turn it up, makes me so proud
I believe in this feeling
Turn it up, turn it up
Right up, right up
Who says poverty and race
Can be kept in their place
By keeping it
All underground
And ruling the country
Are unfaithful husbands
Who spank little boys
Gagged and bound
There's got to be a better way
For you and for me
To turn this hypocrisy round
The growth of a nation
Cannot be achieved
By keeping
The downtrodden down
Turn it up, turn it so loud
It don't ever stop
No no no no
Turn it up, makes me so proud
I believe in this feeling
Turn it up, turn it up
Right up, right up
It don't ever stop
No no no no
Turn it up, makes me so proud
I believe in this feeling
Well you've lost all the things
That sharing could bring
Thought you were doing right
But violence and flames
And torches and chains
Are fuelling
These new northern lights
Like prisoners working
On infertile land
Took eight years
To find out the score
If you're sick then you're lonely
Out of work then you're hungry
The sentence is four years more
Turn it up, turn it so loud
It don't ever stop
No no no no
Turn it up, makes me so proud
I believe in this feeling
Turn it up, turn it up
Right up, right up
Who says poverty and race
Can be kept in their place
By keeping it
All underground
And ruling the country
Are unfaithful husbands
Who spank little boys
Gagged and bound
There's got to be a better way
For you and for me
To turn this hypocrisy round
The growth of a nation
Cannot be achieved
By keeping
The downtrodden down
Turn it up, turn it so loud
It don't ever stop
No no no no
Turn it up, makes me so proud
I believe in this feeling
Turn it up, turn it up

Wonderland Lyrics By Simply Red
People, places
Pursuing the chases
Our moments were chosen
Her senses, explosion
Take your pulse and read it well
She never said you'd only get one chance
Pay your debt and bleed as well
You're living in the same circumstances
The end of an era
Our future no clearer
My people no stronger
The blame I lay on her
Wonderland, Wonderland
It's beautiful
Wonderland, wonderland
It's beautiful
Take your pulse and read it well
She never said you'd only get one chance
Pay your debt and bleed as well
You're living in the same circumstances
The end of an era
My future no clearer
Our people no stronger
The blame I lay on her
Wonderland, wonderland
It's beautiful
Wonderland, wonderland
It's beautiful
Fading away, fading away until tomorrow comes
To haunt us all
It's coming again, it's gonna pick up on you
And haunt you always
Wonderland wonderland
Fading away
Pursuing the chases
Our moments were chosen
Her senses, explosion
Take your pulse and read it well
She never said you'd only get one chance
Pay your debt and bleed as well
You're living in the same circumstances
The end of an era
Our future no clearer
My people no stronger
The blame I lay on her
Wonderland, Wonderland
It's beautiful
Wonderland, wonderland
It's beautiful
Take your pulse and read it well
She never said you'd only get one chance
Pay your debt and bleed as well
You're living in the same circumstances
The end of an era
My future no clearer
Our people no stronger
The blame I lay on her
Wonderland, wonderland
It's beautiful
Wonderland, wonderland
It's beautiful
Fading away, fading away until tomorrow comes
To haunt us all
It's coming again, it's gonna pick up on you
And haunt you always
Wonderland wonderland
Fading away

Debris Lyrics By Simply Red
I left you on the debris
At the Sunday morning market
You were sorting through the odds and ends
You was looking for a bargain
I heard your footsteps at the front door
In that old familiar love song
Cause you knew you'd find me waiting there
At the top of the stairs
I went there and back
Just to see how far it was
And you, you tried to tell me
But I had to learn for myself
There's more trouble at the depot
With the general workers union
And you said they'll never change a thing
Well, they won't fight and they're not working
Oh you was my hero
Now you are my good friend
I've been there and back
And I know how far it is
But I left you on the debris
Now we both know you got no money
And I wonder what you would have done
Without me hanging around
At the Sunday morning market
You were sorting through the odds and ends
You was looking for a bargain
I heard your footsteps at the front door
In that old familiar love song
Cause you knew you'd find me waiting there
At the top of the stairs
I went there and back
Just to see how far it was
And you, you tried to tell me
But I had to learn for myself
There's more trouble at the depot
With the general workers union
And you said they'll never change a thing
Well, they won't fight and they're not working
Oh you was my hero
Now you are my good friend
I've been there and back
And I know how far it is
But I left you on the debris
Now we both know you got no money
And I wonder what you would have done
Without me hanging around

If You Don't Know Me By Now Lyrics By Simply Red
If you don't know me by now
You will never never never know me
All the things
That we've been through
You should understand me
Like I understand you
Now girl I know the difference
Between right and wrong
I ain't gonna do nothing
To break up our happy home
Don't get so excited
When I come home
A little late at night
Cos we only act like children
When we argue fuss and fight
If you don't know me by now
You will never never never know me
We've all got our
Own funny moods
I've got mine,
Woman you've got yours too
Just trust in me like I trust in you
As long as we've been together
It should be so easy to do
Just get yourself together
Or we might as well say goodbye
What good is a love affair
When you can't see eye to eye
If you don't know me by now
You will never
Never never know me
You will never never never know me
All the things
That we've been through
You should understand me
Like I understand you
Now girl I know the difference
Between right and wrong
I ain't gonna do nothing
To break up our happy home
Don't get so excited
When I come home
A little late at night
Cos we only act like children
When we argue fuss and fight
If you don't know me by now
You will never never never know me
We've all got our
Own funny moods
I've got mine,
Woman you've got yours too
Just trust in me like I trust in you
As long as we've been together
It should be so easy to do
Just get yourself together
Or we might as well say goodbye
What good is a love affair
When you can't see eye to eye
If you don't know me by now
You will never
Never never know me
