Hero Two

LYRICS:
Call me Hero Zero it's alright
Cos Hero One he got you through the night
No Hero Two, what you gonna do?
Had to keep swinging, had to keep moving along
Making up you own rules like another song
Well this one's for you ... what you gonna do?
Put it in a rhythm, Put it in a rhythm, Put it in a rhythm, Put it in a rhythm
Hero One was always helping out
Born to live and to love what it's all about
No Hero Two, what you gonna do?
No heroes anywhere - just me and you
And when you're slipping far way, get calling, calling
When we get together then the song plays on.
Put it in a rhythm and sing it in the key of life
Cuts you open like the sharp edge of a knife
No Hero Two, what you gonna do?
P-P-P-P-P-Put it in a rhythm, Put it in a rhythm, Put it in a rhythm, Put it in a rhythm
Stories come and then they come some more
They'll keep coming when you're on the floor
No Hero Two, what you gonna do?
Hero One lives on inside of you
One on one that makes you Hero Two
Il n'est pas perdu ... touché Lulu.

LYRICS:
I can't believe that this has happened again (nah)
You're a dirty, no-good, low life Shimalay
I was isolated, you never hesitated
You just detonated in my way.
You say you want me back,
well no, no - not this time
You tell me you can change,
Well no go - I've heard it all before.
Aw shut your mouth, or did you come here to tease me?
Do I make it easy for you, Shimalay?
To think, I was glad you found me when you gagged me and bound me
You still astound me, Shimalay.
You say you want me back,
well no, no - not this time
You tell me you can change,
Well no go - I've heard it all before.
No, no.
No, I'm not coming back.
Now you can keep on dreaming
Or find some hidden meaning in this, Shimalay.
But as the pressure increases
Who will pick up the pieces of you, Shimalay?
You say you want me back,
well no, no - not this time
You tell me you can change,
Well no go - I've heard it all before.
Where do we go from here?
Where do we got rom here?
Where do we go from here, Shimalay?
Where do we go from here?
Where do we got from here?
Where do we go from here, Shimalay?

In It For Money

LYRICS:
I am an artist you can see what I do
I'm painting pictures, paint a story for you
My creations go all over the world
And all I'd ask in return is to be loved
But now I'm so far gone
I'm so far gone
In it for money, just in it for money
In it for money, just in it for money
In it for money, just in it for money
In it for money if I'm in it at all
I'm so far gone
In it for money, just in it for money
In it for money, just in it for money
In it for money, just in it for money
In it for money if I'm in it at all
I'm so far gone
I'm so far gone
G-G-G-G-G-gone
In it for money if I'm in it at all
I'm so far gone
I'm so far gone
I'm so far gone
I'm so far gone
I'm so far gone

Roll On

LYRICS:
These dice were rolling since before you were born
You made your entrance all crumpled and torn
And flesh and skin is all that you've worn
Roll on
You were the cutest thing that I've ever seen
A few more years and then you'll see what I mean
You'll spend so much time just trying to stay clean
Roll on
No-one controls you
Nothing enfolds you
No-one consoles you on their own
No-one controls you
Nothing enfolds you
No-one consoles you on their own
Roll on, Roll on
You have the smartest mind that I've ever known
That doesn't mean you get to reap what you've sown
But if there's one thing that history has shown
We roll on
No-one controls you
Nothing enfolds you
No-one consoles you on their own
No-one controls you
Nothing enfolds you
No-one consoles you on their own
Roll on, Roll on
We roll on, Roll on

Stay With Me

|
LYRICS:
You tie me up, you tie me down
I'm like a king without a hope of a crown
You don't give in when I give out
And ever since we met it's been one thing or another
Are we on? Or are we off?
I need to know where I stand cos I'm sinking in the sand.
Don't go.
Don't go.
Stay with me, on the right side of love.
Stay with me, on the right side of love.
Stay with me, on the right side of love.
Stay with me.
You lift me up when I go down
My body's moving slowly but my head is spinning round
You pull me in and push me down
And everything I know has come from having you around.
Don't go (stay with me)
Don't go (stay with me)
Stay with me, on the right side of love.
Stay with me, on the right side of love.
Stay with me, on the right side of love.
Stay with me.
Don't pack me up, don't ship me out
There's no return on damaged goods I have no doubt
So where's the feeling? Where are we now?
I think of life without you and I really don't know how
I can get through this without you
If that's the way we're going I don't know what I would do
Don't go.
Don't go.
Stay with me (don't go)
Stay with me,
On the right side of love.
On the right side of love.
Stay with me, on the right side of love.
Stay with me, on the right side of love.
Stay with me.
On the right side of love.
Stay with me, on the right side of love.
Stay with me, on the right side of love.
Stay with me, on the right side of love.
Stay with me.

Freefall

LYRICS:
I ... I can't ...
I can't think straight
Or function
I can just about function
You see they've taken all my medicine, medicine, medicine
They've taken all my medicine they took it all away
They've taken all my medicine, medicine, medicine
They've taken all my medicine they took it all away
And now I'm in a freefall
I'm in a freefall
I'm heading for rock bottom - then maybe this will stop
But the rock on the bottom could be another top
Then the whole damn thing (the whole damn thing)
It starts all over again
They've taken all my medicine, medicine, medicine
They've taken all my medicine they've taken it away
And now I'm in a freefall
I'm in a freefall
They've taken all my medicine, medicine, medicine
They've taken all my medicine they took it all away
They've taken all my medicine, medicine, medicine
They've taken all my medicine they took it all away
This - this is the end.
Or maybe it's a new beginning.
I'm so lost I forget if anyone's winning.
They've taken all my medicine, medicine, medicine
They've taken all my medicine they took it all away
They've taken all my medicine, medicine, medicine
They've taken all my medicine they took it all away
And now I'm in a freefall
I'm in a freefall
They've taken all my medicine, medicine, medicine
They've taken all my medicine they took it all away
They've taken all my medicine, medicine, medicine
They've taken all my medicine they took it all away
They've taken all my medicine

Pass It On

LYRICS:
Some people get off on the strangest things
Some get off on money, some get up and sing
Some write stories and some call it "art"
And some will die broke of a broken heart
Some, I gotta tell you, they don't mean to be bad
Some will take you on the longest trip that you've had
Some people like the kinky stuff, even alone
Some will stay staring at the screen of their phone
Pass it on
Pass it on, Pass it on
Pass it on
Pass it on, Pass it on
Some get off preparing all the food that you eat
Some stay in bed and take a load off their feet
Some will try to play you, like you're part of their game
Some will live in fear and some remember your name
Some will write a letter that they're not gonna send
Some don't want to spend the time it takes to make friends
Some will help a stranger when they see them in need
Some will take whatever they want but don't call it greed
Some live through their children, some live at sea
Some are always smiling at the beauty they see
Some are out to get you, some will never care
And some believe the human race is going nowhere
Pass it on
Pass it on, Pass it on
Pass it on
Pass it on, Pass it on
Some they want to change the world whatever's in their way
Some don't like to mix and never know what to say
Some escape to places they create in their head
Some were born to question every word that you said
Some people disappear in the blink of an eye
Some you can't get rid of, no matter how hard you try
Some are always chasing things that they'll never reach
But we will keep on singing 'til there's nothing left to teach
Pass it on
Pass it on, Pass it on
Pass it on
Pass it on, Pass it on
Pass it on
Pass it on, Pass it on
Pass it on
Pass it on, Pass it on
