Shout

(Chorus & First verse)
Shout
Shout
Let it all out
These are the things I can do without
Come on
I'm talking to you
Come on

In violent times
You shouldn't have to sell your soul
In black and white
They really really ought to know
Those one track minds
That took you for a working boy
Kiss them goodbye
You shouldn't have to jump for joy

(Chorus)

They gave you life
And in return you gave them Hell
As cold as I ice
I hope we live to tell the tale.

(Chorus)

And when you've taken down your guard
If I could change your mind
I'd really love you break your heart

(Chorus)

The Working Hour

These things that I've been told
Can rearrange my world
My doubt in time
But inside out.

(Chorus)
This is the working hour
We are paid by those who learn
By our mistakes.

This day and age
For all and not for one
All lies and secrets
Put on and on and on

(Chorus)

And fear is such a vicious thing
It wraps me up in such chains

Find out
Find out what this fear is about
(x2)

Everybody Wants to Rule the World

Welcome to your life
There's no turning back
Even while we sleep
We will find you acting on your best behavior
Turn your back on Mother Nature
Everybody wants to rule the world.

It's my own design
It's my own remorse
Help me to decide
Help me make the most
Of freedom and of pleasure
Nothing ever lasts forever
Everybody wants to rule the world.

There's a room where the light won't find you
Holding hands while the walls come tumbling down
When they do I'll be right behind you.
So glad we've almost made it
So sad they had to fade it
Everybody wants to rule the world.

I can't stand this indecision
Married with a lack of vision
Everybody wants to rule the world
Say that you'll never never never never need it
One headline why believe it?
Everybody wants to rule the world.

All for freedom and for pleasure
Nothing ever lasts forever
Everybody wants to rule the world.

Mothers Talk

My features form with a change in the weather
Weekend
We can work it out
My features form with a change in the weather
Weekend
We can work it out
When the wind blows
When the mothers talk
When the wind blows
When the wind blows
When the mothers talk
When the wind blows
We can work it out.

It's not that you're not good enough
It's just that we can make you better
Given that you pay the price
We can keep you young and tender
Following the footsteps of a funeral pyre
You were paid not to listen
Now your house is on fire.

Wake me up when things get started
When everything starts to happen.

My features form with a change in the weather.

Some of us are horrified
Others never talk about it
But when the weather starts to burn
Then you'll know that you're in trouble
Following the footsteps of a soldier girl
It's time to put your clothes on
And to face the world.

Don't you feel your luck is changing
When everything starts to happen
Put your head right next to my heart
The beat of the drums is the fear of the dark.

My features form with a change in the weather.

I Believe

I believe that when the hurting and the pain has gone
We will be strong, Oh yes we will be strong
And I believe that if I'm crying while I write these words
Is it absurd? Or am I being real
I believe if you knew just what these tears were for
They would just pour like every drop of rain
That's why I believe it is too late for anyone to believe.

I believe that if you thought for a moment,
Took your time
You would not resign yourself to your fate
And I believe that if it's written in the stars,
That's fine.
I can't deny that I'm a Virgo too
I believe that if you're bristling while you hear this song
I could be wrong or have I hit a nerve?
That's why I believe it is too late for anyone to believe.

I believe that maybe somewhere in the darkness
In the nighttime in the storm
In the casino
Casino Spanish eyes
I believe, no I can't believe that everytime
You hear a newborn scream
You just can't see the shaping of a life
The shaping of a life.

Broken

Between the searching and the need to work it out
I stop believing everything will be alright
Broken
We are broken
I'm walking uphill being turned around and round
Secret in motion when my feet are on the ground
Broken
We are broken

In my mind's eye
One little boy anger one little man
Funny how time flies.

Head Over Heels/Broken (Live)

I wanted to be with you alone
And talk about the weather
But traditions I can trace against the child in your face
Won't escape my attention
You keep your distance via the system of touch
And gentle persuasion
I'm lost in admiration could I need you this much
Oh you're wasting my time
You're just wasting time.

Something happens and I'm head over heels
I never find out until I'm head over heels
Something happens and I'm head over heels
Ah don't take my heart
Don't break my heart
Don't throw it away.

I made a fire and watching it burn
Thought of your future
With one foot in the past now just how long will it last
No no no have you no ambition
My mother and my brothers used to breathing clean air
And dreaming I'm a doctor
It's hard to be man when there's a gun in your hand
Oh I feel so...

Something happens and I'm head over heels.
I never find out until I'm head over heels
Something happens and I'm head over heels
Ah don't take my heart
Don't break my heart
Don't throw it away.

And it's my four leaf clover
I'm on the line, one open mind
This is my four leaf clover.

Listen

Mother Russia badly burned
Your children lick their wounds

Pilgrim Father sailed away
Found a brave new world
