[two goes and i'm out]
it's nearly eleven
do you think we'll stand the test of time
you're a cloud short of heaven
but you know i want you to be mine
and i sitting here waiting
yeah, it's getting frustrating
got to go to the garage-uh
got to get some fags and make some tea
can you lend me enough wedge
do you want to walk up there with me
and i'm sitting here waiting
yeah, tired of debating
will you do me, do me now
we've been up all night
i can feel a strange attraction
and it's getting light
but i can't spur you into action
sure not alone, but i'm so on my own, OH!
it's a quarter to seven
don't you think we've stayed up long enough
you're a cloud short of heaven
but i'd love to see you strut your stuff
and i'm sitting here waiting
yeah, we could be x-rated
we could be oh so happy
we could be oh so happy
waking up
(frischmann/elastica)
i'd work very hard
but i'm lazy
i can't take the pressure and it's starting to show
in my heart
you know how it pains me
a life of leisure is no life you know
waking up and geting up has never been easy
oh woah-ah, i think you should know
waking up and geting up has never been easy
oh woah-ah, i think you should know
oh woah-ah, i think you should go
make a cup of tea, put a record on
i'd work very hard
but i'm lazy
i've got a lot of songs but they're all in my head
i'll get a guitar
and a lover who pays me
if i can't be a star i won't get out of bed

keeping a brave face in circumstances is impossible
cannot describe
so many
decisions
it's impossible
to knoooow which is
the proper order - the best position, to be in
take advantage or so it seems, the way it goes
it's tragic laid down on your side
too easy
you know that you know
you're soaking wet, you talk too much, it's not
necessary
before the ice melts
i just want to say
this packet's yours
don't ask for more,
cos somewhere
along the line
i've forgotten
already
sandman comes
two to one
in the dark
dark reflections
in my bed
in my head
again
sandman goes
two in tow
wet and dumb
three's the number
coming down
coming round
again
see that animal
(anderson/frischmann/elastica)
see that animal
get some heavy metal
watch the world go singing
sha-la-la-la
white stick
happiness will we
ever know how it feel
hooooow it feeeeeels?
i feel your
tattoo on mine
but i can't wash
it out this time
oh it's time
oh it's time
oh it's time
oh it's tiiiime
see that druggy act
ac/dc drag act
on the wires in the sky
tonight-aii-aiii
fifteen new cities
but will we ever know how it feels
hooooow it feels
i feel my tattoo on you
it's a sweet thing, terry
but it's not true
it's not true
it's not true
it's not true
stutter
(frischmann/elastica)
no need to whine, boy
like a windup toy
you stutter at my feet
and it's never the time, boy
you've had too much wine to
stumble up my street
well it's isn't a proooooblem
nothing we can't keep between the sheets
tell me you're mine, love
and i will not wait for other bedtime treeeeaaaaats
is it something you lack
when i'm flat on my back
is it something that i can do for you?
it's always something you hate
or it's something you ate
tell me is it the way that i touch you?
have you found a new mate
and is she really great
is it just that i'm much too much for you?
whoa-oh-oh-whoa-oh!
don't feed me a line, boy
i can hear that voice you use upon the phone
and there's no need to be coy
that is something you can do upon your own
well it isn't a problem
nothing we can't solve so just relax
am i on the wrong train love
and will i have to tie you to the tracks
is it something you lack
when i'm flat on my back
is it something that i can do for you?
it's always something you hate
or it's something you ate
tell me is it the way that i touch you?
have you found a new mate
and is she really great
is it just that i'm much too much for you?
uh-uh-oh-whoa-oh-ah!
i really want you to whoa-oh-oh-whoa-oh-ah!
i really want you to whoa-oh-oh-whoa-oh-ahhhh!
never here
(frischmann/elastica)
it's a sign of devotion
you made everybody else seem insane
you filled my head with your notions
you made everybody else seem so tame
in your bed i lay reeling
you made everybody else seem a shame
i knew from the way i was feeling
nothing could ever be quite the same
i moved straight into your shoes
took up your cause answered your phone
i couldn't really imagine
what life was like when i was alone
then i started to worry [and then i started to worry]
i thought of our lives left on the shelf
too much tv and curry
too much time spent on ourselves
we were sitting in, waiting
and i told you my plan
you were far too busy writing
rhymes that didn't scan
and you lent me your records
and i lent you an ear
funny how it seems to me that
you were never [donna: "never"] here
you were never [donna: "never"] really here
in your bed i lay reeling
you made everybody else seem a shame
i knew from the way i was feeling
nothing could ever be quite the same
it's a sign of devotion
you made everybody else seem so plain
then it felt like going through the motions
first impressions never remain
we were sitting in, waiting
and you told me my plan
i was far too busy writing
rhymes that'll never scan
now i've sold all your records
cos they give me the fear
funny how it seems to me that
you were never [donna: "never"] here
you were never [donna: "never"] really here
you were never [donna: "never"] really here
