Lost my head in a space-age crawl found my legs leaned against the wall talk in tongues and we’re kissing and all we’re so young we’re so new to it all found a fountain and I jumped inside never easy when your parents lied and told you everything would be alright Hey baby wanna go for a ride? I joined the club and I lost my mind I joined the club and my legs went too (like jelly) Hate myself more than I hate you I wanna love you but my hands are tied Gotta boogie on down to the lower Eastside Gotta boogie on down to the lower Eastside Everyone is welcome at the After School Club I was bullied and she was bullied and he was bullied and she was too we grew up and now we find we only hurt ourselves by being unkind I was bullied and she was bullied and he was bullied and she was too And the bullies were bullied and everyone’s bullied and everyone’s fucked so how about you? Everyone is welcome at the After School Club (or Everybody) Jack-knifed down a one way street caught my legs and I juggled my feet stepping faster than you’ve ever seen don’t need to think when you’re a dancing machine Turn lights low all across the land and join together with my funky band John, Fleur, Alice, Nyla and dad guarantee the greatest night you’ve ever had Running like a headless chicken down the street who needs to think when you feel the beat Running like a headless chicken down the street who needs to think when you feel the beat Everyone is welcome at the After School Club (or Everybody) I was bullied and she was bullied and he was bullied and she was too we grew up and now we find we only hurt ourselves by being unkind I was bullied and she was bullied and he was bullied and she was too And the bullies were bullied and everyone’s bullied and everyone’s fucked so how about you? Everyone is welcome at the After School Club (or Everybody)

Just can’t be satisfied at this current time losing all my patience with you You’re tryna wreck my life you want to kill my wife painting all my carnations blue Running round the park skittles after dark setting Irish wolfhound on you chase you round the bend never were my friend Don’t know why you do what you do Can’t be satisfied Just mess my mind Never satisfied my tongue is tied my mind’s on fire you cut the wire and I’m hanging around with the synth box drum beat blues Just can’t be satisfied at this current time losing all my patience with you Pick apart my songs right me when I’m wrong talk in tongues and educate the deaf walking on my grave making me your slave I’m surprised your friends haven’t left Can’t be satisfied Just mess my mind Never satisfied my tongue is tied my mind’s on fire you cut the wire and I’m hanging around with the synth box drum beat blues When the lady gives the signal there’s no time to dilly dally ally pally dustpan alley away When the sun is on the rise there’s no way to rationalise what you know deep down you’re dying to say Gotta take her by the hand lead her out to the dance floor shaking like a bluebottle fly gotta fake it till you make it there’s no easy way to break it once you start to feel the rhythm inside Gotta take her by the hand lead her out to the dance floor shaking like a bluebottle fly gotta fake it till you make it there’s no easy way to break it once you start to feel the rhythm inside Just can’t be satisfied at this current time losing all my patience with you You’re tryna wreck my life you want to kill my wife painting all my carnations blue Running round the park skittles after dark setting Irish wolfhound on you Can’t be satisfied Just mess my mind Never satisfied my tongue is tied my mind’s on fire you cut the wire and I’m hanging around with the synth box drum beat blues Can’t be satisfied

Just give up It’s behind you now no feelings left nothing left to say to you my dear I don’t know why you brought your dog down here I want to fall out with you I want to shout it out with you I want to punch that curly dog that follows you around nothing left to say to you my girl You don’t care about anything in this great wide world I can see her in my mind Can’t erase you from my mind Why’d a woman want to treat a man so bad? No, I don’t hate you But I don’t want to be your friend Do you even get it? Somethings I wish I never said to you A dog’s life isn’t fun and I won’t eat from your hand I’m not trying to tear you down but grow up Nothing good can ever come of your callous love Somethings I should say to you my love I don’t know what the hell it was I was thinking of I can see her in my mind Can’t erase you from my mind Why’d a woman want to treat a man so bad? Why?

Get Down 03:24
You know I’d never hurt you never tell a lie Sometimes I don’t deserve you you don’t have to try Oh this thought it creeps down inside of me you could break me easily Why don’t you just come on Get down with me A thousand silver kisses I would send your way It’s a feeling that a thousand words could never say Oh but this feeling it creeps on down inside of me you could take me easily why don’t you just come on Get down with me Damn this thought (thought this…Damn!)

Ice Cream 04:33
Brush your teeth clean your face squeeze your nose cry some tears shave your face dry your hair comb your hair underwear put on shirt pantalons tie your tie button up jacket walk your way through the stores past the car parks under trees under cars by the houses to the college See a cat pet the cat see a dog hide the cat Check your watch forgot my watch Adjust your tie get real funky Find the girl take her hand play the song and hit the beat and don’t be wrong Hit the beat and don’t be wrong Be there be square in your underwear There’s something between us Don’t try and deny it It seems such a shame you feel that you have to hide it So much of me wants you and maybe you want me but that’s not important it’s sunny there’s ice cream that’s not important it’s sunny there’s ice cream So what flavour would you like well what are there? well, there’s cherry choc vanilla toffee apple razzie coffee and a flake or clotted cream mint choc mango kiwi pomegranite peach and chocolate cake Play the chord hit the note change the mode and show us what you’ve got Paperwork paperwork paperwork and more paperwork Give a hug recieve a hug write a song right a wrong pick a wildflower put it in your jacket breaking the law can be so undramatic See the girl sit in the sun I feel good we feel young The stress on you Is all self made bad things happen but you decide you decide If you use what your mama gave ya You decide if you use what your mama gave ya There’s something between us Don’t try and deny it It seems such a shame you feel that you have to hide it So much of me wants you and maybe you want me but that’s not important it’s sunny there’s ice cream that’s not important it’s sunny there’s ice cream

I wanted to be big in the eyes of the world I wanted to be strong for you I took you to my house and we got really drunk I’ve never felt these feelings for anyone else but you I wanted to give you a slice of my life I wanted to kiss you and dance through the night It’s so silly to miss you when you leave my side for a little bit a little bit a little bit of time I’m gonna be frank because I don’t have the time to sit on my hands and let you just pass me by It’s hard when your bestfriend likes the same girl as you Just give a little bit a little bit a little bit of line The time I spend with you is just so surreal the world feels like springtime when winter chills all your hair is a sunset as Autumn leaves fall and cover up the hurtful stuff that’s better left behind cover all the hurtful stuff that’s better left behind A little bit a little bit of time So what do you want me to do what do I want to do You know what I want to do Can I- ok Where should we go now I think we’ve had enough I’ll actually boil the kettle this time So what should we do A little bit of time I wanted to be big in the eyes of the world I wanted to be strong for you I took you to my house and we got really drunk I’ve never felt these feelings for anyone else but you I wanted to give you a slice of my life I wanted to kiss you and dance through the night It’s so silly to miss you when you leave my side for a little bit a little bit a little bit of time A little bit of time
