Breaking Us In Two

Don't you feel like trying something new
Don't you feel like breaking out or breaking us in two
You don't do the things that I do
You want to do the things I can't do
Always something breaking us in two

You and I could never live alone
But don't you feel like breaking out
Just one day on your own
Why does what I'm saying hurt you
I didn't say that we were through
Always something breaking us in two

They say two hearts should beat as one for us
We'll fight it out to see it through
I say that you won't bee too much fun for us
Though it's oh so nice to get advice it's oh so hard to do

Could we be much closer if we tried
We could stay at home and stare into each other's eyes
Maybe we could last an hour
Maybe then we'd see right through
Always something breaking us in two

Steppin' Out

Now the mist across the window hides the line
But nothing hides the colour of the lights that shine
Electricity so fine
Look and dry your eyes

We're so tired of all the darkness in our lives
With no more angry words to say can come alive
Get into a car and drive
To the other side

Me babe, steppin' out
Into the night, into the light
You babe, steppin' out
Into the night, into the light

We are young but getting old before our time
We'll leave the t.v. and the radio behind
Don't you wonder what we'll find
Steppin' out tonight

You can dress in pink and blue just like a child
And in a yellow taxi turn to me and smile
We'll be there in just a while
If you follow me

Is She Really Going Out With Him

Pretty women out walking with gorillas down my street.
From my window I'm staring while my coffee grows cold.
Look over there! (Where?)
There's a lady that I used to know.
She's married now, or engaged, or something, so I am told.

Is she really going out with him?
Is she really gonna take him home tonight?
Is she really going out with him?
'Cause if my eyes don't deceive me,
There's something going wrong around here

Tonight's the night when I go to all the parties down my street
I wash my hair and I kid myself I look real smooth
Look over there! (Where?)
Here comes Jeanie with her new boyfriend
They say that looks don't count for much
If so, there goes your proof

[Chorus]

But if looks could kill, there's a man there who's mowed down as dead
'Cause I've had my fill, "Listen you, take your hands off her head!"
I get so mean around this scene!  Hey, hey, hey.

On Your Radio

Ex-friends, ex-lovers and enemies
I've got your case in front of me today
All sewn up
Ex-bosses you never let me be
I got your names and your numbers filed away
I've grown up
See me
Hear me
Don't you know you can't get near me.
You can only hope to hear me on your radio
On your radio
You're gonna hear me on your radio.

Ex-teachers still coming through to me
Tough kids don't stop trying to kick me to the ground
I don't care
Go on just do what you do to me
You look so sick when you're pushing me around
You're nowhere

One More Time

Tell me one more time, as I hold your hand that you don't love me
Tell me one more time, as teardrops start to fall
Shout it to me and I'll shout it to the skies above me
That there was nothing after all

Baby, baby, tell me that you never wanted my loving
Baby, baby, tell me that you never
Tell me, tell me one more time, one more time
Say you're leaving, say goodbye
One more time, one more time
Say you're leaving, say goodbye

Tell me one more time, we never had a thing in common
Tell me one more time, as you turn and face the wall
Tell me I should know you never were my kind of woman
And tell me we were fools to fall

[Chorus]

Tell me one more time, your tears are only sad confusion
And tell me it's just been so long and that is all
And tell me one more time that love was only my illusion
You never answered to my call

[Chorus]

Look Sharp!

Big shot, tell you what
Tell me what goes on around here
Go on and get me in the corner
Smoke my cigarettes and drink my beer
Tell me that this world is no place for the weak
Then you can look me in the eye
And tell me if you see a trace of fear

You gotta look sharp
You gotta look sharp
And you gotta have no illusions
Just keep going your way looking over your shoulder

Okay, what you say
Tell me what they're wearing this year
Go on and laugh at me cause you don't see
That I got something going right here
Say I'm just a dreamer
Say I'm just a kid
Well ace, shut your face
Maybe you will see or hear

[Chorus]

Big shot, thanks a lot
Gotta go it's getting late
I got a date with my tailor now
Thanks for putting me so straight
Tell me how they run the crime down every street
But check your watch and wallet now
Before I go and you're too late

[Chorus]

It's Different For Girls

What the hell is wrong with you tonight
I can't seem to say or do the right thing
Wanted to be sure you're feeling right
Wanted to be sure we want the same thing

She said - I can't believe it
You can't - possibly mean it
Don't we - all want the same thing
Don't we
Well who said anything about love
No not love she said
Don't you know that it's different for girls
You're all the same

Mama always told me, save yourself
Take a little time and find the right girl
Then again don't end up on the shelf
Logical advice gets you in a whirl
I know - a lot of things that
You don't - you wanna hear some
She said - just give me something
Anything
Well give me all you got but not love
No not love she said
Don't you know that it's different for girls
You're all the same

A Slow Song

Music has charms they say
But in some people's hands
It becomes a savage beast
Can't they control it
Why don't they hold it back

You see, my friend and me
Don't have an easy day
And at night we dance not fight
And we need the energy
If not the sympathy

But I'm brutalized by bass
And terrorized by treble
I'm open to change my mood but
I always get caught in the middle

And I get tired of DJ's
Why is it always what he plays
I'm gonna push right through
I'm gonna tell him to
Tell him to
Play us
Play us a slow song

It's late - I'm winding down
Am I the only one
To want a strong and silent sound
To pick me up and undress me
Lay me down and caress me

I feel you touch my hand
And whisper in my ear
Ask me how I'm feeling now
And I want to get near you
But I can't even hear you

But this is a fine romance
If we have to be so demanding
We need just one more dance to
Leave here with an understanding

[Chorus]

Another World

I was so low
People almost made me give up trying
Always said no
Then I turned around saw someone smiling

I stepped into
I stepped into
Into another
Into another
I stepped into
I stepped into
Into another
Into another world

There was no light
I was going to all the wrong places
Like day from night
Suddenly I saw a thousand faces

[Chorus]
