The Pass

Proud swagger out of the schoolyard

Waiting for the world's applause

Rebel without a conscience

Martyr without a cause

Static on your frequency

Electrical storm in your veins

Raging at unreachable glory

Straining at invisible chains

And now you're trembling on a rocky ledge

Staring down into a heartless sea

Can't face life on a razor's edge

Nothing's what you thought it would be

All of us get lost in the darkness

Dreamers learn to steer by the stars

All of us do time in the gutter

Dreamers turn to look at the cars

Turn around and turn around and turn around

Turn around and walk the razor's edge

Don't turn your back

And slam the door on me

It's not as if this barricade

Blocks the only road

It's not as if you're all alone

In wanting to explode

Someone set a bad example

Made surrender seem all right

The act of a noble warrior

Who lost the will to fight

And now you're trembling on a rocky ledge

Staring down into a heartless sea

Done with life on a razor's edge

Nothing's what you thought it would be

No hero in your tragedy

No daring in your escape

No salutes for your surrender

Nothing noble in your fate

Christ, what have you done?

"A Passage To Bangkok"

Our first stop is in Bogota

To check Colombian fields

The natives smile and pass along

A sample of their yield

Sweet Jamaican pipe dreams

Golden Acapulco nights

Then Morocco, and the East

Fly by morning light

[Chorus:]

We're on the train to Bangkok

Aboard the Thailand Express

We'll hit the stops along the way

We only stop for the best

Wreathed in smoke in Lebanon

We burn the midnight oil

The fragrance of Afghanistan

Rewards a long day's toil

Pulling into Katmandu

Smoke rings fill the air

Perfumed by a Nepal night

The Express gets you there

[Chorus]

Rush - 2112

So This Is Goodbye

Stina Nordenstam

(And She Closed Her Eyes)

So this is goodbye

So this is how you say it

These are the words It's the voice you're using

It's the picture you've seen

So this is goodbye

So this is how you say it

This is the time it takes you

It didn't take you a lot now did it?

It didn't hurt you a lot now did it?

So this is goodbye

So this is how you spell it

Where you place it in your mouth

What happens if I didn't hear you?

What happens if it wasn't serious?

Well I was around

Maybe it was you I came to see

Maybe it was you who invited me

I remember your eyes were on me

I remember your eyes were on me

Goodbye

Can't believe no-one's mentioned:-

"Shot through the heart,

and you're to blame,

darlin' you give love a bad name!"

"An angels smile,

is what you sell,

you promise me heaven,

then put me through ######.

Chains of love,

got a hold on me.

Your face is a prison,

I can't break free."

Bon Jovi, when he was worth listening to :o

Or on a less cynical note :-

i'm not a perfect person. there are many things i wish i didnt do

but i continue learning. i never meant to do those things to you.

and so i have to say before i go, that i just want you to know

i've found a reason for me, to change who i used to be

a reason to start over new, and the reason is you

i'm sorry that i hurt, its something i must live with everyday

and all the pain i put you through, i wish that i could take it all away

and be the one who catches all your tears, thats why i need you to hear

i'm not a perfect person, i never meant to do those things to you

and so i have to say before i go that i just want you to know

i've found a reason for me, to change who i used to be

a reason to start over new, and the reason is you

i've found a reason to show a side of me you didnt know

a reason for all that i do, and the reason is you

LEONARD COHEN lyrics - "Waiting For The Miracle"

Baby, I've been waiting,

I've been waiting night and day.

I didn't see the time,

I waited half my life away.

There were lots of invitations

and I know you sent me some,

but I was waiting

for the miracle, for the miracle to come.

I know you really loved me.

but, you see, my hands were tied.

I know it must have hurt you,

it must have hurt your pride

to have to stand beneath my window

with your bugle and your drum,

and me I'm up there waiting

for the miracle, for the miracle to come.

Ah I don't believe you'd like it,

You wouldn't like it here.

There ain't no entertainment

and the judgements are severe.

The Maestro says it's Mozart

but it sounds like bubble gum

when you're waiting

for the miracle, for the miracle to come.

Waiting for the miracle

There's nothing left to do.

I haven't been this happy

since the end of World War II.

Nothing left to do

when you know that you've been taken.

Nothing left to do

when you're begging for a crumb

Nothing left to do

when you've got to go on waiting

waiting for the miracle to come.

I dreamed about you, baby.

It was just the other night.

Most of you was naked

Ah but some of you was light.

The sands of time were falling

from your fingers and your thumb,

and you were waiting

for the miracle, for the miracle to come

Ah baby, let's get married,

we've been alone too long.

Let's be alone together.

Let's see if we're that strong.

Yeah let's do something crazy,

something absolutely wrong

while we're waiting

for the miracle, for the miracle to come.

Nothing left to do ...

When you've fallen on the highway

and you're lying in the rain,

and they ask you how you're doing

of course you'll say you can't complain --

If you're squeezed for information,

that's when you've got to play it dumb:

You just say you're out there waiting

for the miracle, for the miracle to come.

Stevie Wonder - "You and I"

Here we are on earth together,

It's you and I,

God has made us fall in love, it's true,

I've really found someone like you

Will it say the love you feel for me, will it say,

That you will be by my side

To see me through,

Until my life is through

Well, in my mind, we can conquer the world,

In love you and I, you and I, you and I

I am glad at least in my life I found someone

That may not be here forever to see me through,

But I found strength in you,

I only pray that I have shown you a brighter day,

Because that's all that I am living for, you see,

Don't worry what happens to me

Cause' in my mind, you will stay here always,

In love, you and I, you and I, you and I, you and I,

In my mind we can conquer the world

In love, you and I, you and I, you and I.

Matchstalk Men and Matchstalk Cats and Dogs

He painted Salford's smokey tops

On cardboard boxes from the shops

And parts of Ancoats where I used to play

I'm sure he once walked down our street

Cause he painted kids who had nowt on their feet

The clothes we wore had all seen better days.

Now they said his works of art were dull

No room, all round the walls are full

But Lowry didn't care much anyway

They said he just paints cats and dogs

And matchstalk men in boots and clogs

And Lowry said that's just the way they'll stay

And he painted matchstalk men and matchstalk cats and dogs

He painted kids on the corner of the street with the sparking clogs

Now he takes his brush and he waits outside them factory gates

To paint his matchstalk men and matchstalk cats and dogs

Now canvas and brushes were wearing thin

When London started calling him

To come on down and wear the old flat cap

They said tell us all about your ways

And all about them Salford days

Is it true you're just an ordinary chap

And he painted matchstalk men and matchstalk cats and dogs

He painted kids on the corner of the street with the sparking clogs

Now he takes his brush and he waits outside them factory gates

To paint his matchstalk men and matchstalk cats and dogs

Now Lowries hang upon the wall

Beside the greatest of them all

And even the Mona Lisa takes a bow

This tired old man with hair like snow

Told northern folk its time to go

The fever came and the good Lord mopped his brow

And he left us matchstalk men and matchstalk cats and dogs

He left us kids on the corner of the street with sparking clogs

Now he takes his brush and he waits outside them pearly gates

To paint his matchstalk men and matchstalk cats and dogs

And he left us matchstalk men and matchstalk cats and dogs

He left us kids on the corner of the street with sparking clogs

Now he takes his brush and he waits outside them pearly gates

To paint his matchstalk men and matchstalk cats and dogs

And he left us matchstalk men and matchstalk cats and dogs

He left us kids on the corner of the street with sparking clogs

Now he takes his brush and he waits outside them pearly gates

To paint his matchstalk men and matchstalk cats and dogs

And he left us matchstalk men and matchstalk cats and dogs

He left us kids on the corner of the street with sparking clogs

Now he takes his brush and he waits outside them pearly gates

To paint his matchstalk men and matchstalk cats and dogs

A little Aggro - The Barron Knights :D

There must be something new to do

The dentist's kengo, and have a little Aggro

'Cause he can take it out on you..

Aahhhhh....

(Open wider please)

Aahhhhhhhhh....

(And a little wider)

Aaaaahhhhhhhhhhh....

(This won't hurt)

AAAHHHarghhhhhh...

(Much)

(To the tune of "Rivers of Babylon":D

There's a dentist in Birmingham, he fixed my crown

And as I slept, he filled my mouth with iron

He said "Rinse out your mouth, with the medication spit it out

In the receptacle by your side, on the right"

(Gurgle)

NO! The RIGHT!

(Gurgle, spit)

(Original song:)

No-one would listen to the smurfs in prison

So they jumped over the wall

But policemen saw them, he chased them

Caught them, this is what he asked them all:

(To the tune of "The Smurf Song":D

"Where are you all coming from?"

We're from Dartmoor, on the run

"How did you work out your route?"

We followed the arrows on our suit

"What were you in Dartmoor for?"

We borrowed a safe from the bank next door

"and why do you all talk this way?"

Cause we're from Ketford,aren't we? Uh!

Laaalaaaa (etc...)

(To the tune of "Matchstalk men":D

With big rosettes and coloured scarves

They go to cheer their favourite stars

They all look forward to their Saturday's

There's one young lad walks down our street

With Bovver Boots upon his feet

And an aerosol can of paint he freely sprays

And he painted Grandad's Bike and next door's cats and dogs

He sprayed a couple on the corner of the street, they were having a snog

He fell down on his can, and his aerosol wen't 'bang'

And all they found was a flat cap and his gloves

(To the tune of "The Smurf Song":wub:

Lala lalalalaaaa Lala lalalalaaaaa etc....

I fear that I'm ordinary, just like everyone

To lie here and die among the sorrows

Adrift among the days

For everything I ever said

And everything I've ever done is gone and dead

As all things must surely have to end

And great lovers will one day have to part

I know that I am meant for this world

My life has been extraordinary

Blessed and cursed and won

Time heals but I'm forever broken

By and by the way...

Have you ever heard the words

I'm singing in these songs?

It's for the girl I've loved all along

Can a taste of love be so wrong

As all things must surely have to end

And great lovers will one day have to part

I know that I am meant for this world

And in my mind as I was floating

Far above the clouds

Some children laughed I'd fall for certain

For thinking that I'd last forever

But I knew exactly where I was

And I knew the meaning of it all

And I knew the distance to the sun

And I knew the echo that is love

And I knew the secrets in your spires

And I knew the emptiness of youth

And I knew the solitude of heart

And I knew the murmurs of the soul

And the world is drawn into your hands

And the world is etched upon your heart

And the world so hard to understand

Is the world you can't live without

And I knew the silence of the world

Meadish, you are a man of exqusite tastes. :o

Disarm - The Smashing Pumpkins

Disarm you with a smile

And cut you like you want me to

Cut that little child

Inside of me and such a part of you

Ooh, the years burn

I used to be a little boy

So old in my shoes

And what i choose is my choice

What's a boy supposed to do?

The killer in me is the killer in you

My love

I send this smile over to you

Disarm you with a smile

And leave you like they left me here

To wither in denial

The bitterness of one who's left alone

Ooh, the years burn

Ooh, the years burn, burn, burn

I used to be a little boy

So old in my shoes

And what I choose is my voice

What's a boy supposed to do?

The killer in me is the killer in you

My love

I send this smile over to you

The killer in me is the killer in you

Send this smile over to you

The killer in me is the killer in you

Send this smile over to you

The killer in me is the killer in you

Send this smile over to you

You guys have real tame tastes!

How about some Frank Zappa

Frank Zappa off his Sheik Yer Bootie Album

Jewish Princess

I want a nasty little jewish princess

With long phony nails and a hairdo that rinses

A horny little jewish princess

With a garlic aroma that could level tacoma

Lonely inside

Well, she can swallow my pride

I want a hairy little jewish princess

With a brand new nose, who knows where it goes

I want a steamy little jewish princess

With over-worked gums, who squeaks when she cums

I don’t want no troll

I just want a yemenite hole

I want a darling little jewish princess

Who don’t know shit about cooking and is arrogant looking

A vicious little jewish princess

To specifically happen with a pee-pee that’s snappin’

All up inside

I just want a princess to ride

Awright, back to the top...everybody twist

I want a funky little jewish princess

A grinder; a bumper, with a pre-moistened dumper

A brazen little jewish princess

With titanic tits, and sand-blasted zits

She can even be poor

So long as she does it with four on the floor

(vapor-lock)

I want a dainty little jewish princess

With a couple of sisters who can raise a few blisters

A fragile little jewish princess

With roumanian thighs, who weasels ’n’ lies

For two or three nights

Won’t someone send me a princess who bites

Won’t someone send me a princess who bites

Won’t someone send me a princess who bites

Won’t someone send me a princess who bites :o

She Talks To Angels

Written by: R. Robinson & C. Robinson

Performed by: The Black Crowes

She never mentions the word addiction

In certain company

Yes, she'll tell you she's an orphan

After you meet her family

She paints her eyes as black as night now

She pulls those shades down tight

She gives a smile when the pain comes

The pain gonna' make everything alright

Says she talks to angels

They call her out by her name

Oh yeah, she talks to angels

Says they call her out by her name

She keeps a lock of hair in her pocket

She wears a cross around her neck

Yes the hair is from a little boy

And the cross from someone she has not met

Not yet

(Repeat Chorus)

She don't know no lovers

None that I've ever seen

And to her that means nothing

But to me it means, means everything

(Repeat second verse)

(Repeat Chorus)

Crowes rule........ :o

Remedy

Written by: R. Robinson & C. Robinson

Performed by: The Black Crowes

Baby, baby why can't you sit still?

Who killed that bird out on you window sill?

Are you the reason that he broke his back?

Did I see you laugh about that?

If I come on like a dream?

Would you let me show you what I mean?

If you let me come on inside?

Will you let it glide?

Can I have some remedy?

Remedy for me please.

Cause if I had some remedy

I'd take enough to please me.

Baby, baby why did you dye your hair?

Why you always keeping with your mother's dare?

Baby why's who's who, who know you too?

Did the other children scold on you?

If I come on like a dream?

Would you let me show you what I mean?

If you let me come on inside?

Will you let it slide

One more did I hear ya say?

###### I'm spolin youse all now.

Ok here goes , one more from the best band since Bonzo kicked the bucket....

Sting Me

Written by: R. Robinson & C. Robinson

Performed by: The Black Crowes

If you feel like a riot, then don't you deny it

Put your good foot forward

No need for heroics I just want you to show it

Now's the time to shine

Your independence is a half ass deliverance

The train left the station

The recognition of the same old condition

Your symptoms showing through

Well regardless of the truth

You still act so aloof

In the face of your judge & jury

You have the nerve to say not guilty

But can you sting me

Can you sting me

Right to my rotten bones

Well the bells ring out for the crimes of the century

By courtesy of your mother

The signs reads welcome to the valley of discovery

Look at what money can buy

Sons & daughters better open your eyes

Tell me what you're seeing

This submission is a tired tradition

It's everyone's sacrifice

Well believe you me

I've got nothing up my sleeve

Except a heart and a chip on my shoulder

Yes I'm young and don't like getting older

Yeah but can you sting me

Can you sting me

Right to my rotten bones

Come on my sweet little thing

What new things can you show me today

I got one question

I believe it's subjective

What is a wasp without her sting?

I don't want to sound bitter

Yeah you touch me just like murder

Living ain't so easy

When all I want from you is to sting me

Can you sting me

:o

Get A Haircut And A Job

I was a rebel from the day I left school

Grew my hair long and broke all the rules

I'd sit and listen to my records all day

With big ambitions of where I could play

My parents taught me what life was about

So I grew up the type they warned me about

They said my friends were just a unruly mob

And I should, get a haircut and get a real job

CHORUS

Get a haircut and get a real job

Clean your act up and dont be a slob

Get it together like your big brother Bob

Why dont you, get a haircut and get a real job

I even tried that nine to five scene

I told myself that it was all a bad dream

I found a band with some good songs to play

Now I party all night and sleep all day

I met this chick, she was my number one fan

She took me home to meet her mommy and dad

They took one look at me and said, "Oh my god!

Get a haircut and get a real job!"

CHORUS

(Get a real job, why dont you get a real job,

get a real job, why dont you get a real job)

I hit the bigtime with my rock and roll band

The future's brighter now then I ever planned

I'm ten times richer then my big brother Bob

He's got a haricut and got a real job

This song gets my vote as the alternate Australian National Anthem

One Country - Midnight Oil

Who'd like to change the world

Who wants to shoot the curl

Who gets to work for bread

Who wants to get ahead

Who hands out equal rights

Who starts and ends that fight

And not rant and rave

Or end up a slave

Who can make hard won gains

Fall like summer rains

Now every man must be

What his life can be

So don't call me the tune, I will walk away

Who wants to please everyone

Who says it all can be done

Still sit up on that fence

No one I've heard of yet

Don't call me baby

Don't talk in maybes

Don't talk like has-beens

Sing it like it should be

Who laughs at their nagging doubts

Lying on a neon shroud, running around

Just got to touch someone

I want to be

So don't call me the tune, I will walk away

One country one

Country one country

Who wants to sit around

Turn it up, turn it down

Only a man can be

What his life can be

One vision,

One people

One landmass

We are defenceless

We have a lifeline

One ocean

One policy

Seabed life

One passion

One movement

One instant

One difference

One lifetime

One understanding

One country

One understanding

Transgression

Redemption

One island

One placemat

One firmament

One element

One moment

One fusion

Yes, and one time

I Just Died In Your Arms Tonight

~ Cutting Crew

Oh I, I just died in your arms tonight

It must have been something you said

I just died in your arms tonight

I keep looking for something I can't get

Broken hearts, they're all around me

And I don't see an easier way, to get out of this

Her diary sits by the bedside table

The curtains are closed, the cat's in the cradle

Who would have thought that a boy like me could come to this

Oh I, I just died in your arms tonight

It must have been something you said

I just died in your arms tonight

Oh I, I just died in your arms tonight

It must have been some kind of kiss

I should have walked away

I should have walked away

Is there any just cause for feeling like this?

On the surface I'm a name on a list

I try to be discreet, but then blow it again

I've lost and found it's my final mistake

She's loving by proxy, no give and all take

'Cause I've been thrilled to fantasy, one too many times

Oh I, I just died in your arms tonight

It must have been something you said

I just died in your arms tonight

Oh I, I just died in your arms tonight

It must have been some kind of kiss

I should have walked away

I should have walked away

It was a long hot night, she made it easy

She made it feel right

But now it's over, the moment has gone

I followed my hands to my head, I know I was wrong

Oh I, I just died in your arms tonight

It must have been something you said

I just died in your arms tonight

Oh I, I just died in your arms tonight

It must have been some kind of kiss

I should have walked away

I should have walked away

Out on the wiley, windy moors

We'd roll and fall in green

You had a temper, like my jealousy

Too hot, too greedy

How could you leave me?

When I needed to possess you

I hated you, I loved you too

Bad dreams in the night

They told me I was going to lose the fight

Leave behind my wuthering, wuthering

Wuthering Heights.

(Chorus)

Heathcliff, it's me, Cathy come home

I'm so cold, let me in-a-your window

Oh it gets dark, it gets lonely

On the other side from you

I pine alot, I find the lot

Falls through without you

I'm coming back love, cruel Heathcliff

My only one dream, my only master

Too long I roam in the night

I'm coming back to his side to put it right

I'm coming home to wuthering, wuthering

Wuthering Heights (Chorus)

Oh let me have it, let me grab your soul away

Oh let me have it, let me grab your soul away

You know it's me, Cathy (Chorus)

I can't help it, guys! I've got to post one more Frank Zappa to bring us back to??? :o

HARDER THAN YOUR HUSBAND

We must say good-bye

There's no need for you to cry

It's better that I tell you this tonight

Our affair has been quite heated

You thought I was what you needed

But the time has come, my darlin'

To set things right, 'cause

I'll be harder than yer husband

To get along with

Harder than yer husband every night

Harder than yer husband

Harder than yer husband

An' I don't want our love affair

To end with a fight

You been like a little angel

How you loved me

I appreciate the warmth of your embrace

Well, the world don't need to know

How I adored you

But there's somethin' I must tell you, darlin'

Face to face. . .

I'll be harder than yer husband

To get along with

Harder than yer husband every night

Harder than yer husband

Harder than yer husband

An' I don't want our love affair

To end with a fight

So, it's adios, adios, my little darlin'

(Adios my little darlin'. . .)

Gotta go now. . .

Keep that hankie that I gave you for when you cry

There are things that trouble me

And I'm sure that you must see

That it breaks my heart the same as yours

When we say good-bye

Harder than yer husband

Harder than yer. . .much, much, much

Harder than yer husband

Harder than yer. . .much, much, much

Harder than yer husband

Harder than yer.. .much, much, much

Harder than yer husband

Harder than yer.. . :D

Refrain 1:

You don’t have to touch it to know

Love is everywhere you go

You don’t have to touch it to feel

Love is every second we steal

Chorus:

Love is love is nothing without you

Love is love is everything you do

Open up your eyes

And you will see

Love is love is everything to me

You don’t have to touch it to be

Wrapped up in emotion like me

Everyone must feel how I do, yeah

Love is just to be close to you

(chorus)

And you know that love is love

It’s written in black and blue

And everything you say

Must bring her closer, closer to you

Ba-ba, ba-ba, ba-ba

(refrain 1)

(chorus)

Love is love is nothing without you

Love is love is everything you do

"Song For Love"

I lie awake with open eyes

My love just died

I'm cold inside

Can't face the thought to be alone

All by myself on my own

Love's come and gone

I look around and see

The hearts that still are broken

I can't believe all of our hearts remain unopened

We can't go go on and on

Wit that same old song

So wipe off the frown

And turn around and face each other

Come on, come on

Let's sing a song

A song for you, a song for me, a song for love

All for one and one for all together

Singing a song for love

You and I are none without the other

Singing a song for love

You let the time pass by

Big boys don't cry

Believe that lie

A broken heart that never mends

Is this the end

Listen my friend

These walls of hate

That separate on from the other

Time to rebuild bridges of love

One to another

Come on, come on

Let's sing a song

A song for you, a song for me, a song for love

All for one and one for all together

Singing a song for love

You and I are none without the other

Singing a song for love

--Extreme.

"Sad but True"

Hey

I’m your life

I’m the one who takes you there

Hey

I’m your life

I’m the one who cares

They

They betray

I’m your only true friend now

They

They’ll betray

I’m forever there

I’m your dream, make you real

I’m your eyes when you must steal

I’m your pain when you can’t feel

Sad but true

I’m your dream, mind astray

I’m your eyes while you’re away

I’m your pain while you repay

You know it’s sad but true

You

You’re my mask

You’re my cover, my shelter

You

You’re my mask

You’re the one who’s blamed

Do

Do my work

Do my dirty work, scapegoat

Do

Do my deeds

For you’re the one who’s shamed

I’m your dream, make you real

I’m your eyes when you must steal

I’m your pain when you can’t feel

Sad but true

I’m your dream, mind astray

I’m your eyes while you’re away

I’m your pain while you repay

You know it’s sad but true

Hate

I’m your hate

I’m your hate when you want love

Pay

Pay the price

Pay, for nothing’s fair

Hey

I’m your life

I’m the one who took you here

Hey

I’m your life

And I no longer care

I’m your dream, make you real

I’m your eyes when you must steal

I’m your pain when you can’t feel

Sad but true

I’m your truth, telling lies

I’m your reasoned alibis

I’m inside open your eyes

I’m you

Sad but true

--Metallica.

Sorry to hear that, GFB. Time heals all wounds...

TIME HEALS ALL WOUNDS

Music and Lyrics by Magdalen Hsu-Li

little light

shining through my tears

dearest heart

you allay all of my fears

strange how these things turn out

stranger still

who we become through it all

the 1st time i held you

in my arms i knew

that time heals all wounds

who are you

to bring me such happiness?

i never thought

i deserved such love

i must confess

love will turn you inside out

and upside down

break you with humility

and give you strength profound

the 1st time i held you

in my arms i knew

that time heals all wounds

time heals all wounds

Love What You Do - The Devine Comedy

Living isn't easy

No need to make it harder

Stretch yourself until you snap

Ditch your superstitions

Lose your inhibitions

Tell them you're not coming back

If you want it, you can have it

If you need it, go and get it

Whatever it is you've got to love it

Everybody's running

Round and round in circles

What is it they're trying to prove?

Exercise your freedom

Exorcise those demons

You have got to love what you do

If you want it, you can have it

If you need it, go and get it

Whatever it is you've got to love it

National Express - The Divine Comedy

Take the National Express when your life's in a mess

It'll make you smile

All human life is here

From the feeble old dear to the screaming child

From the student who knows that to have one of those

Would be suicide

To the family man

Manhandling the pram with paternal pride

And everybody sings 'ba ba ba da..........'

We're going where the air is free

On the National Express there's a jolly hostess

Selling crisps and tea

She'l provide you with drinks and theatrical winks

For a sky-high fee

Mini-skirts were in style when she danced down the aisle

Back in '63 (yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah)

But it's hard to get by when your arse is the size

Of a small country

And everybody sings 'ba ba ba da.....'

We're going where the air is free

Tomorrow belongs to me

When you're sad and feeling blue

With nothing better to do

Don't just sit ther feeling stressed

Take a trip on the National Express

Totster :o
