Once upon a time not so long ago
This boy he took to the stage
He wandered around like a travelling show
But one thing filled him with rage
While singing the song that thawed his heart
People would walk to the bar
The lights would go down
The music would start
He couldn't get very far

Until one night...

Kick off the beat and bring on the bass
Everyone turn to look at my face
'Cause all I want
Is the best of order, baby.
My life is up if your life is down
Wouldn't you like to rock this town?
'Cause all I want
Is the best of order, baby.

Now standing all alone
Looking through the smoke
This kid he started to grin
He's tryin' ta compete with bingo and jokes
There's no use trying to win!

Until one night...

Kick on the beat and bring on the bass
Everyone turn to look at my face
'Cause all I want
Is the best of order, baby.
My life is up when your life is down
Wouldn't you like to rock this town?
'Cause all I want
Is the best of order, baby.

Kick on the beat and bring on the bass
Everyone turn to look at my face
'Cause all I want
Is the best of order, baby.
My life is up when your life is down
Wouldn't you like to rock this town?
'Cause all I want
Is the best of order, baby.

You never even know what you're missing
Why doncha pay attention and listen?
Someone's tryin' ta blow your mind away!
Why doncha turn around and Im hoping
Two people in the front will stop groping
Someones tryin' ta blow your mind away!

Kick on the beat and bring on the bass
Everyone turn to look at my face
'Cause all I want
Is the best of order, baby.
My life is up when your life is down
Wouldn't you like to rock this town?
'Cause all I want
Is the best of order, baby.

Kick on the beat and bring on the bass
Everyone turn to look at my face
'Cause all I want
Is the best of order, baby.
My life is up when your life is down
Wouldn't you like to rock this town?
'Cause all I want
Is the best of order, baby.

Kick on the beat and bring on the bass
Everyone turn to look at my face
'Cause all I want
Is the best of order, baby.
My life is up when your life is down
Wouldn't you like to rock this town?
'Cause all I want
Is the best of order, baby.

Hey yay-ay....

Got a face like thunder
You're looking like the world came down on you
You're not like any other
I wish you never do
But take one step at a time
There is a silver lining for your cloud
You can turn it all around...

So hold on
Go back to the start
Let things fall apart
Running in circles
Think that it's time to fall down
Think that it's time to fall down

Oh yay...

So you've taken a fall
You're not he first to get back on your wall
Just struggle your hand in
And deal it again
And when the tables have turned
You'll take the message you've learned to someone new
Then somebody can lean on you

So hold on
Go back to the start
Let things fall apart
Running in circles
Think that it's time to fall down
Think that it's time to fall down

Down...
Dow-ow-ow-ow-owwwn...

So hold on
Go back to the start
Let things fall apart
Running in circles
Think that it's time to fall down
Think that it's time...

So hold on
Go back to the start
Let things fall apart...

Running in circles
Think that it's time to fall down
Think that it's time to fall down

He sits alone at a table in a small cafe
Drowning his tears in a bottomless cup of coffee
And hes tumbling into his thoughts
His memories are all tied in knots
And who is going to save him
No one wants to know him

She stands alone in a place where no one knows her name
She catches them staring they turn around and vanish the frame
And shes nursing her head and her pride
She died long ago deep down inside
And who is going to save her
No one wants to know her


I cant believe that youd pull on a sleeve when you cry
You stick in the knife then give the kiss of life
Live the lie
And we all have a saviour
So do yourself a favour
Stop livin the lie

He sits alone and looks up to the eyes of an angel
She catches him staring and smiles the smile of an angel
And she asks him if this chair is free
He said yes will you sit here with me
No one would have saved him
We should all learn from them


Lie.... lie.... stop livin the lie

Took a little bit of money, tried to find my soul
Standing on the corner of a street where nobody goes
And it looks like nobody cares
Though you never stop peddling wares

Working through the night trying to pay the rent
You'd like to buy a drink but the money's spent
And you think you'll never find your way
You wanna stop sleeping throughout the day

Get on your feet and play on
and I don't wanna be left here all my life
I belong in another place so take me there tonight
I don't wanna be useless all my life
So won't you help me out tonight

Hard to find the way when you leave the track
Hard to get a little respect, lying on your back
And you're counting off of every dream
As your demo gets ripped at the seam

Get on your feet and play on
and I don't wanna be left here all my life
I belong in another place so take me there tonight
I don't wanna be useless all my life
So won't you help me out ...
When you're lying in your bed and all around you there is silence
and the melodies go through your head, it's like an act of violence
Cos there's nothing you can do about it
and no one that you know
But don't let go

and I don't wanna be left here all my life
I belong in another place so take me there tonight
I don't wanna be useless all my life
Won't you help me out, help me out tonight

The Devil picked me up today
Said c'mon boy it's time to play!
We got places to go and people to see
He said step in my convertible
It is very comfortable
I got tv, cd - even dvd!
And he pulled me in and shut the door
His clover foot - it hit the floor.
Devil - damn you made my hair turn white!
And you reached across and grabbed my hand
Said - Son we're gunna find the promised land!
Ya gunna... See some hell tonight!

Then he said
Follow, follow, foll -ow-ow-ow me.
Then he said
Follow, follow-ow-ow-ow-ow, foll -ow-ow-ow me.

The Devil walked into a bar
Said - Look at just how good things are
When you're looking from the bottom of a glass!
Wellll...
The drinks kept comin' 1, 2, 3...
Damn Devil was so good to me
That I fell of my chair... Landed on my ass!

And the angel found me lying there
Pulled me back up on my chair
Slapped my face and told me to stand
And he reached across and grabbed my hand
Said - Son we're gunna find the promised land!
You gotta get yourself a rock 'n' roll band!

Then he said
Follow, follow, foll -ow-ow-ow me.
Then he said
Follow, follow-ow-ow-ow-ow, foll -ow-ow-ow me.
Yeah!

And then this girl she came along
Said - How are you? I like your song!
Why you hanging round with these guys??
The Devil he don't understand!
The Angel don't know the promised land!
You gotta use your heart and open your eyes!

Then she said
Follow, follow, foll -ow-ow-ow me.
Then she said
Follow, follow-ow-ow-ow-ow, foll -ow-ow-ow me.

Wellll...
Follow, follow, foll -ow-ow-ow me.
Then she said
Follow, follow-ow-ow-ow-ow, foll -ow-ow-ow me.

I don't even know if I could cry
Been so long, it seems like I've run dry
Something in your eyes tonight
Looked into my soul
Saw the years of breaking down
Have taken its toll
So I'm leaning on you now into the night..

Don't let go.. don't let go.. don't let go..
I don't wanna let you go

Now I'm on the rocks, I see your lie
I don't need my wings to take this flight
I know I can fly
Nothing happens on its own, fate is just a word
You make me a better man..
Does that sound absurd?
And you look into my eyes and softly say..

Don't let go.. don't let go.. don't let go..
I don't wanna let you go

You are the light in me, pull me in and set me free
You always let me know
Hold on tight and don't let go..

Don't let go.. don't let go.. don't let go..
I don't wanna let you go

Don't let go.. don't let go.. don't let go..
Don't let go.. don't let go.. don't let go..

Listen to your heart and not your head
I know that this is what the wise man said
Maybe he's wrong...
And all this talk of yet another war
Contradicits just what the heart is for
Just what is it for??
'Cause everybody lies
Everybody cries in the end...

But I'm like the bluebird in the sky
Ya can't drag me down 'cause I'm so high!
And you know it's easy if you try
You can let the bluebird fly so high...

HA!

Why are you waiting by the phone??!
It only ever rings when no-ones home!
So go outside
There is no reason to delay
Grab your hat. Go out. Do it today.
Go out and play
So listen to me now because if ya can't believe be afraid
'Cause everybody lies
Everybody cries in the end...

But I'm like the bluebird in the sky
Ya can't drag me down 'cause I'm so high!
And you know it's easy if you try
You can let the bluebird fly so high...

So listen to me now because if ya can't believe be afraid
'Cause everybody lies
Everybody cries in the end...

But I'm like the bluebird in the sky
Ya can't drag me down 'cause I'm so high!
And you know it's easy if you try
You can let the bluebird fly
You can let the bluebird fly
You can let the bluebird fly so high...

Like a kid in a candy store
Your mama told you what to take and leave behind.
But kid - you're older now.
And standing on the street you're naked and you're blind.

Easy come
E-E-Easy go-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh...

You're lazy
You drive me crazy
So very lazy
All the time

Girl - pull you're finger out!
I'm putting in the time and still you are the crime.
You say you love me so
But every single problem that you get is mine
Yes, it's mine...

Easy come
E-E-Easy go-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh...

You're lazy
You drive me crazy
So very lazy
All the time

Yay - Yay - Ay

So very lazy
All the time

Yay-Yay-Yay

You're lazy. Lazy. Lazy.
You drive me crazy. Crazy. Crazy.
You are so lazaaaaay - ayyyy... Hoo!
A c'mon yeah...
C'mon, C'mon, C'mon yeah...
C'mon! Whoa-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh
You say you love me so
A You say you love me, love me so
But every single problem that you get is mine
Yes it's mine
Yes it's mine.
Yes it's mine...

It takes forever to convince them that you're who you say you are.
They like to judge you
But you know they'll only do it from afar
You know there's something to always push you on.
Blows keep comin' at ya
Life don't seem to care for you at all
You know there's somethin' that keeps you movin' on
You keep on movin'
Even though you know you're heading for a fall

Now I know where I'm going
And I know where I'm coming from
Now I know where I'm going
Doesn't really matter what you say
Hit me with your best shot
Y'know I'm gonna be okay!

You're in the gutter
But there's part of you that's starin' at the stars
If they had their way you'd be singing on the street and working bars
Then they're on your side
You can do no wrong
If they don't hurt you now
How come you use them for another song??
Your eyes are open now
You know what to believe
And suddenly it's all about that song and pulling on a sleeve...!

Now I know where I'm going
And I know where I'm coming from
Now I know where I'm going
Doesn't really matter what you say
Hit me with your best shot
Y'know I'm gonna be okay-ay-ay...
Okay...

Now I know where I'm going
And I know where I'm coming from
Now I know where I'm going
Doesn't really matter what you say
Hit me with your best shot
Y'know I'm gonna be okay!

Now I know where I'm going
And I know where I'm coming from
Now I know where I'm going
Doesn't really matter what you say
Hit me with your best shot
Y'know I'm gonna be okay!

Looking out over the ocean
And I'm wondering why it is blue
And the only reason can be...
Cause I'm without you.
Standing alone on the shore
And I'm crying out for more
And the only reason can be...
Cause I'm without you

So stand in silence
Hold me tight
Stand in silence
Tonight

And now I have to know
Just before
I go-oh-oh...
Oh-oo-oo, baby...
And will you still think of me over the largest sea now I'm without you??

Crying out into the night
And I'm trying to put all the things right
And the only reason can be...
Cause I'm without you

So stand in silence
Hold me tight
Stand in silence
Tonight

And now I have to know
Just before
I go-oh-oh...
Oh-oo-oo, baby...
And will you still think of me over the largest sea now I'm without you - ooh - ooh
Oh...
I'm without you - ooh - ooh

So stand in silence
Hold me tight
Stand in silence
Tonight

And now I have to know
Just before
I go-oh-oh...
Oh-oo-oo, baby...
And will you still think of me over the largest sea now I'm without you - ooh - ooh
Oh Oh Ohhh...
I'm without you - ooh - ooh

Maybe it's time to compromise
Stop moving your mouth and use your eyes
You think you know what people like
But I don't think so
Why don't you try a new idea
One of your own
Or do you fear
Trying to find a thought in there
I don't think you care
You're nothing like me

Looks like you're getting tired now
You've lost your inner fire now
Maybe you should retire now
No-one likes you
People like you are everywhere
You're stuck in the playground pulling hair
Say what you like - I couldn't care!
No-one likes you
You're...You're nothing like me...

Neverland
You're stuck in your own private little
Neverland
And I will never
Understand
How you ever live with what you do

Everything round you's feeling strange
Your destination's outta range
Say what you like nothing will change
No-one needs you
Maybe the route you took was wrong
I hope another comes along
You've chased the dollar far too long
You're... You're nothing like me

Neverland
You're stuck in your own private little
Neverland
And I will never understand
You could never do this so you reprimand
You're so fly
You're
Neverland
One day soon your world is gonna stop!

And listen you
Are missing every point I ma-a-ake
You're sitting where you're safe
In your own

Neverland
You're stuck in your own private little
Neverland
And I will never understand
You could never do this so you reprimand
You're so fly
You're
Neverland
And I will never understand
You could never do this so you reprimand
You're so fly
You're
Neverland

No you're so in love with you
And it doesn't really matter what I do
Oh!
Cause you'll still be you...
You're
Neverland
You're stuck in your own private little
Neverland

Should have never used the phone
Got to do this on my own
It's been a long time coming to me now
I felt this just the other day
Was coming out
What can I say?
It's been a long time coming to me now

Don't want you to hold my hand
Just need you to understand
It's been a long time coming to me now
Don't want you to share my fear
Just wana tell you that I'm here
It's been a long time coming to me now

And in a deeper part of me
A stronger soul is breaking free
And I want you to know
Can't hold me down for any more
Pull myself from off the floor
And I want you to know

Don't want you to hold my hand
I just need you to understand
Don't want you to share my fear
Just wana tell you that I'm here
And now we've spoke over the phone
No, I can't stand this room alone
It's been a long time coming to me now

Well
Here I come
Well here I come
Here I come back yeah x3

It's been a long time coming to me now

And now the light I felt before
When I was young as you once more
And I want you to know
Ohhh... It may take a little time
Pretty soon I will be fine
I'm better than that!
I wana fly as high as I can fly
Woah... It's been a long time coming to me now
And set alight to my inner burning fire
Ohhh.. It's been a long time coming to me now

Well
Here I come
Well here I come
Here I come back yeah
Singin'
