    Cold late night so long ago
    When I was not so strong you know
    A pretty man came to me
    Never seen eyes so blue
    I could not run away
    It seemed we’d seen each other in a dream
    It seemed like he knew me
    He looked right through me
    Come on home, girl he said with a smile
    You don’t have to love me yet
    Let’s get high awhile
    But try to understand
    Try to understand
    Try try try to understand
    I’m a magic man.

    Winter nights we sang in tune
    Played inside the months of moon
    Never think of never
    Let this spell last forever
    Summer over passed to fall
    Tried to realize it all
    Mama says she’s worried
    Growing up in a hurry

    Come on home, girl mama cried on the phone
    Too soon to lose my baby yet my girl should be at home!
    But try to understand, try to understand
    Try try try to understand
    He’s a magic man, mama
    He’s a magic man

    Come on home, girl he said with a smile
    I cast my spell of love on you a woman from a child!
    But try to understand, try to understand
    I’m a magic man!
    sometimes you're the boxer...sometimes you're the bag...

    In the summertime when the weather is fine
    You can stretch right up and touch the sky
    When the weather's fine
    You got women, you got women on your mind
    Have a drink, have a drive
    Go out and see what you can find

    If her daddy's rich take her out for a meal
    If her daddy's poor just do what you feel
    Speed along the lane
    Do a ton or a ton an' twenty-five
    When the sun goes down
    You can make it, make it good in a lay-by

    We're no threat, people
    We're not dirty, we're not mean
    We love everybody but we do as we please
    When the weather's fine
    We go fishin' or go swimmin' in the sea
    We're always happy
    Life's for livin' yeah, that's our philosophy

    Sing along with us
    Dee dee dee-dee dee
    Dah dah dah-dah dah
    Yeah we're hap-happy
    Dah dah-dah
    Dee-dah-do dee-dah-do dah-do-dah
    Dah-do-dah-dah-dah
    Dah-dah-dah do-dah-dah

    When the winter's here, yeah it's party time
    Bring your bottle, wear your bright clothes
    It'll soon be summertime
    And we'll sing again
    We'll go drivin' or maybe we'll settle down
    If she's rich, if she's nice
    Bring your friends and we'll all go into town

    In the summertime when the weather is hot
    You can stretch right up and touch the sky
    When the weather's fine
    You got women, you got women on your mind
    Have a drink, have a drive
    Go out and see what you can find

    If her daddy's rich take her out for a meal
    If her daddy's poor just do what you feel
    Speed along the lane
    Do a ton or a ton an' twenty-five
    When the sun goes down
    You can make it, make it good in a lay-by

    We're no threat, people
    We're not dirty, we're not mean
    We love everybody but we do as we please
    When the weather's fine
    We go fishin' or go swimmin' in the sea
    We're always happy
    Life's for livin' yeah, that's our philosophy

    Sing along with us

    'Cause it's a bittersweet symphony, this life
    Trying to make ends meet
    You're a slave to money then you die
    I'll take you down the only road I've ever been down
    You know the one that takes you to the places
    where all the veins meet yeah

    No change, I can't change
    I can't change, I can't change
    But I'm here in my mind
    I am here in my mind
    But I'm a million different people
    from one day to the next
    I can't change my mind

    Well I never pray
    But tonight I'm on my knees yeah
    I need to hear some sounds that recognize the pain in me, yeah
    I let the melody shine, let it cleanse my mind, I feel free now
    But the airways are clean and there's nobody singing to me now

    No change, I can't change
    I can't change, I can't change
    But I'm here in my mind
    I am here in my mind
    And I'm a million different people
    from one day to the next
    I can't change my mind
    No, no, no, no, no, no, no
    I can't change
    I can't change it

    'Cause it's a bittersweet symphony, this life
    Trying to make ends meet
    Trying to find some money then you die
    I'll take you down the only road I've ever been down
    You know the one that takes you to the places
    where all the veins meet yeah

    You know I can't change, I can't change
    I can't change, I can't change
    But I'm here in my mind
    I am here in my mind
    And I'm a million different people
    from one day to the next
    I can't change my mind
    No, no, no, no, no

    I can't change my mind
    no, no, no, no, no,
    I can't change
    Can't change my body,
    no, no, no

    I'll take you down the only road I've ever been down
    I'll take you down the only road I've ever been down
    That you've ever been down
    That you've ever been down
    sometimes you're the boxer...sometimes you're the bag...

    You're only one fad away from being retro
    You're only one drug away from liking techno
    You're only one glasses of pair from dyslexia
    You're only one Cleo mag from anorexia

    You're only five yards from a fuckwit

    You're only one download from this song's copyright
    You're only one Tim Tam away from cellulite
    You're only one phone call from captaining the Aussie side
    You're only one lifestyle show from suicide
    You're only one station from John Laws' shit
    You're only one labotomy from believing it.

    You're only one tabloid press from a lynch mob
    You're only one acting role from a real job
    You're only one strip of flesh from your bones
    You're only one species away from Alan Jones.

    You're only one small speck in space
    You're only one life, soon erased
    Be there none left on Earth but you
    One thing will still remain true:
    In the land of the little kings
    Profit is the only thing
    And everywhere the little kings
    Are getting away with murder

    Flies are buzzing around my head
    Vultures circling the dead
    Picking up every last crumb
    The big fish eat the little ones
    The big fish eat the little ones
    Not my problem give me some

    You can try the best you can
    If you try the best you can
    The best you can is good enough

    This one's optimistic
    This one went to market
    This one just came out of the swamp
    This one dropped a payload
    Fodder for the animals
    Living on an animal farm

    If you try the best you can
    If you try the best you can
    The best you can is good enough

    I'd really like to help you man
    I'd really like to help you man.....
    Nervous messed up marionette
    Floating around on a prison ship

    If you try the best you can
    If you try the best you can
    The best you can is good enough
    If you try the best you can
    If you try the best you can
    Dinosaurs roaming the earth
    The car's on fire and there's no driver at the wheel
    And the sewers are all muddied with a thousand lonely suicides

    I knew a girl
    Her name was truth
    She was a horrible liar.

    She couldnt spend one day alone
    But she couldnt be satisfied.

    When you have everything,
    You have everything to lose.
    She made herself
    A bed of nails
    And shes plannin' on puttin' it to use.

    Cos she had diamonds on the inside
    She had diamonds on the inside
    She had diamonds on the inside
    Diamonds

    A candle throws its light into the darkness
    In a nasty world,so shines the good deed
    Make sure the fortune, that you seek
    Is the fortune you need.

    So tell me why,the first to ask,is the last to give,everytime
    What you say and do not mean
    Follow too close behind

    Cos she had diamonds on the inside
    She had diamonds on the inside
    She wore diamonds on the inside
    Diamonds

    Like a soldier standing long under fire
    Any change comes as a relief.
    Let the giver's name remain unspoken
    For she is just a generous thief.

    But she had diamonds on the inside
    Cos she had diamonds on the inside
    She wore diamonds on the inside
    She wore diamonds
    Oh diamonds
    She had diamonds
    She wore diamonds
    Diamonds

    Billy-Ray was a Preacher's son,
    And when his daddy would visit he'd come along,
    When they gathered round and started talking,
    That's when Billy would take me walking,
    Through the back yard we'd go walking,
    Then he'd look into my eyes,
    Lord knows to my suprise:

    The only one who could ever reach me,
    Was the son of a preacher man,
    The only boy who could ever teach me,
    Was the son of a preacher man,
    Yes he was, he was, oh yes he was.

    Being good isn't always easy,
    No matter how hard I tried,
    When he started sweet talking to me,
    he'd come tell me everything is alright,
    he'd kiss and tell me everything is alright,
    Can I get away again tonight?.

    The only one who could ever reach me,
    Was the son of a preacher man,
    The only boy who could ever teach me,
    Was the son of a preacher man,
    Yes he was, he was, oh yes he was.

    How well I remember,
    The look that was in his eyes,
    Stealing kisses from me on the sly,
    Taking time to make time,
    Telling me that he's all mine,
    Learning from each others knowing,
    Looking to see how much we'd grown.

    The only one who could ever reach me,
    Was the son of a preacher man,
    The only boy who could ever teach me,
    Was the son of a preacher man,
    Yes he was, he was, oh yes he was.

    Once my lover, now my friend.
    What a cruel thing to pretend.
    What a cunning way to condescend.
    Once my lover, now my friend.

    Oh, you creep up like the clouds.
    And you set my soul to ease.
    Then you let your love abound.
    And you bring me to my knees.

    Oh, it’s evil,babe,the way you let your grace enrapture me.
    When, well, you know, I’d be insane -
    To ever let that dirty game recapture me.

    You made me a shadowboxer, baby.
    I wanna be ready for what you do.
    I been swinging all around me.
    ’cause I don’t know when you’re gonna make your move.

    Oh, your gaze is dangerous.
    And you fill your space so sweet.
    If I let you get too close,
    You’ll set your spell on me.

    So, darlin’, I just wanna say.
    Just in case I don’t come through.
    I was on to every play.
    I just wanted you.

    But, oh, it’s so evil, my love,
    The way you’ve no reverence to my concern.
    So, I’ll be sure to stay wary of you, love,
    To save the pain of once my flame and twice my burn.

    You made me a shadowboxer, baby.
    I wanna be ready for what you do.
    I been swinging all around me.
    ’cause I don’t know when you’re gonna make your move.

    You pretend you're high
    Pretend you're bored
    Pretend you're anything
    Just to be adored
    And what you need
    Is what you get

    Don't believe in fear
    Don't believe in faith
    Don't believe in anything
    That you can't break

    You stupid girl
    You stupid girl
    All you had you wasted
    All you had you wasted

    What drives you on
    Can drive you mad
    A million lies to sell yourself
    Is all you ever had

    Don't believe in love
    Don't believe in hate
    Don't belive in anything
    That you can't waste

    You stupid girl
    You stupid girl
    Can't believe you fake it
    Can't believe you fake it

    Don't believe in fear
    Don't believe in pain
    Don't believe in anyone
    That you can't tame

    You stupid girl
    You stupid girl
    All you had you wasted
    All you had you wasted
    You stupid girl
    You stupid girl
    Can't believe you fake it
    Can't believe you fake it

    Bangkok, Oriental setting
    And the city don't know that the city is getting
    The creme de la creme of the chess world in a
    Show with everything but Yul Brynner

    Time flies -- doesn't seem a minute
    Since the Tirolean spa had the chess boys in it
    All change -- don't you know that when you
    Play at this level there's no ordinary venue

    It's Iceland -- or the Philippines -- or Hastings -- or --
    or this place!

    One night in Bangkok and the world's your oyster
    The bars are temples but the pearls ain't free
    You'll find a god in every golden cloister
    And if you're lucky then the god's a she
    I can feel an angel sliding up to me


    One town's very like another
    When your head's down over your pieces, brother


    It's a drag, it's a bore, it's really such a pity
    To be looking at the board, not looking at the city

    Whaddya mean? Ya seen one crowded, polluted, stinking town --

    Tea, girls, warm, sweet
    Some are set up in the Somerset Maugham suite

    Get Thai'd! You're talking to a tourist
    Whose every move's among the purest
    I get my kicks above the waistline, sunshine

    One night in Bangkok makes a hard man humble
    Not much between despair and ecstasy
    One night in Bangkok and the tough guys tumble
    Can't be too careful with your company
    I can feel the devil walking next to me

    Siam's gonna be the witness
    To the ultimate test of cerebral fitness
    This grips me more than would a
    Muddy old river or reclining Buddha

    And thank God I'm only watching the game -- controlling it --

    I don't see you guys rating
    The kind of mate I'm contemplating
    I'd let you watch, I would invite you
    But the queens we use would not excite you

    So you better go back to your bars, your temples, your massage
    parlours --

    One night in Bangkok and the world's your oyster
    The bars are temples but the pearls ain't free
    You'll find a god in every golden cloister
    A little flesh, a little history
    I can feel an angel sliding up to me

    One night in Bangkok makes a hard man humble
    Not much between despair and ecstasy
    One night in Bangkok and the tough guys tumble
    Can't be too careful with your company
    I can feel the devil walking next to me
    sometimes you're the boxer...sometimes you're the bag...

    Too alarming now to talk about
    Take your pictures down and shake it out
    Truth or consequence, say it aloud
    Use that evidence, race it around

    There goes my hero
    Watch him as he goes
    There goes my hero
    He’s ordinary

    Don’t the best of them bleed it out
    While the rest of them peter out
    Truth or consequence, say it aloud
    Use that evidence, race it around

    There goes my hero
    Watch him as he goes
    There goes my hero
    He’s ordinary

    Kudos my hero leaving all the best
    You know my hero, the one that’s on

    There goes my hero
    Watch him as he goes
    There goes my hero
    He’s ordinary

    it was an evening i shared with the sun
    to find out where we belong
    from the earliest days
    we were dancing in the shadows
    .
    more wine
    cuz i got to have it
    more skin
    cuz i got to eat it
    .
    inside the outside
    by the river
    used to be so calm
    used to be so sane
    I rushed the lady's room
    took the water from the toilet
    washed her feet and blessed her name
    more peace
    is such a dirty habit
    .
    slow down, we're too afraid
    .
    let me ride
    let me ride
    burn my eyes
    let me ride

    What the fuck is up? What the fuck is up?
    What the fuck is going on in this town?

    I see the bad moon arising.
    I see trouble on the way.
    I see earthquakes and lightnin’.
    I see bad times today.

    Don’t go around tonight,
    Well, it’s bound to take your life,
    There’s a bad moon on the rise.

    I hear hurricanes ablowing.
    I know the end is coming soon.
    I fear rivers over flowing.
    I hear the voice of rage and ruin.

    Hope you got your things together.
    Hope you are quite prepared to die.
    Looks like we’re in for nasty weather.
    One eye is taken for an eye.

    Moon River, wider than a mile
    I'm crossing you in style some day
    You dream maker
    You heartbreaker
    Wherever you're going
    I'm going your way

    Two drifters off to see the world
    There's such a lot of world to see
    We're after the same rainbow's end
    Waitin' round the bend
    My Huckleberry friend
    Moon River and me

    Moonlight is about to transform some people into strange creatures to drive others mad
    Does the moon actually possess such strange powers? Or is it all just, lunacy?

    Let's take a blast to the moon baby
    I sit around wishing you will
    How i'm craving you
    (yeah)
    Every time i'm near you
    (I always wanna swallow you down)
    I'll be right here if you need me

    In my life, I'll need you here
    Don't ask why, i'll never disappear
    Why is it everyday that I feel the pain?
    Ah yeah

    Let's take a trip to the stars far away
    (Where were you when I was down?)
    Staring into the dead,
    (dead)

    My pain is caused by my pleasure
    (And my soul mate lives in your body)
    I can't get you out of my head
    It never goes away

    In my life, I'll need you here,
    Don't ask why, i'll never disappear
    In your eyes you can bid me farewell
    Don't ever try to understand the situation
    Why is it everyday that I feel the pain?

    (It always comes when I least expect it
    When i'm looking for love,
    I seem to be regretting it)

    Why is it everyday that I feel the pain?
    Ah yeah, yeah

    I had nothing to do with this
    Tolerance, tolerance for pain
    And we can't have weakness

    (no, I can't stop)

    I had nothing to do with this
    I had nothing to do with this

    I had nothing to do with this
    I had nothing to do with this

    And we can't have weakness
    And we can't have weakness

    Tolerance, tolerance for pain
    Tolerance, tolerance for pain

    Tolerance for pain
    Tolerance for pain

    Did you catch the fever
    Flying toward the moon?
    Sailing in space to a distant shore
    You kind of wondered
    What they came here for

    We lived days for lovin'
    Falling for all we met
    A world gone crazy from the lunacy
    The tides kept rising and falling
    Like you and me

    Moon crazy
    Summer of changes
    Let the night shine on (and on) and on
    Shine on until the feeling is gone
    Dreaming about, what could it be
    Summer's embraces
    Had a hold on me

    On the hill they danced 'til dawn
    While the video flickered along
    But in your heart was an empty need
    You just didn't know
    Where the dream would lead

    Moon crazy
    Summer of changes
    Let the night shine on (and on) and on
    Shine on, shine on

    Moon crazy
    Summer of changes
    Let the night shine on (and on) and on
    Shine on until the feeling is gone
    Dreaming about, what could it be
    Summer's embraces
    Had a hold on me

    Moon crazy
    Summer of madness
    Let the night shine on (and on) and on
    Shine on until the feeling is gone
    Dreaming about, what could it be
    Summer's embraces
    Had a hold on me

    I watch you spin from afar
    I drink you in and breath you out
    I'm camouflaged by the timeline
    I'm camouflaged when the sun shines

    Two ships passing in the night
    Two lips pressing ground the tides

    I believe the world it spins for you
    We wil never be, I am the moon

    I believe the world it spins for you
    We wil never be, I am the moon

    I long to be a part
    I isolate my heart
    You've drawn me into your world
    Now I too spin limbless

    One hand clapping, where's the wind
    I stand spanning at your distant wings

    I believe the world it spins for you
    We wil never be, I am the moon

    I believe the world it spins for you
    We wil never be, I am the moon

    I believe the world it spins for you
    We wil never be, I am the moon
    sometimes you're the boxer...sometimes you're the bag...
