If the world...

You’re so young
Future is in your hands
Can’t be wrong
Say it to all your friends
It is time
To make a better day
Spread the word
Let’s find another way
Fix your hair
Make yourself beautiful
Everywhere
People rock people roll
You’re so young
And I am not that old
Hurry up…
We can dance
Here and now anywhere
We can give
Now is the time to share
Come along
We’ll make a place for you
Don’t be long
We wait for only you
You’re so young
And I am not that old
Hurry up
Before we both get bold
Here and now
Here and now anywhere
We are young and alive
We have so much to share
If the world is empty
Then fill it up, fill it up with love
It’s your world
So fill it up, fill it up with love.
If you’re down
Just let the music play
Get on down
Tou’ll never want to stay
Take a train
Singing la la la
Go to Spain
Join us on La Playa
It’s easy
You’ll never cry no more
By the sea
On the sandy dancefloor
Here and now
Here and now anywhere
We are young and alive
We have so much to share
If the world is empty
Then fill it up, fill it up with love
It’s your world
So fill it up, fill it up with love.

All about You
02:21
|
|||
|
It’s not about the Eiffel Tower
It’s not about Madrid at night
It’s not about having a pint or two
It’s not about hey hey my my
It’s not about Damien Rice
It’s just about the way that I love you
the way that I love you
It’s not about the friends of mine
It’s not about my favourite line
It’s not about a glass of wine, or two
It’s not about infatuation
It’s not about imagination
It’s just about the way that I love you
the way that I love you
It’s all about the way you smile
It’s all about your green blue eyes
It’s all about the joy to be with you
It’s all about your hand in mine
It’s all about the shining light
That came in my head when you said “I do”
when you said “I do”

Fuck you!
04:16
|
|||
|
You come back with a smile
With music in your eyes
You come back in, with style
With pieces of my heart
And you still got the nerve
To throw clichés like this time it’s for ever
But did you ask yourself
Which state I could be in
Isn’t it just too late
What do you think I feel
And you still got the nerve
To ask me “when I left, did you really hurt?”
Fuck you get away
You can get the fuck out and stay
I just don’t want you back
Leave the fuck out of my house my life and…
Fuck you get away
Find another heart to break
Cos’ mine’s already torn
I wish that you were never born…
You come back with a smile
You come back and now, you cry
Well you can cry your heart out
I just don’t want you back
And you still got the nerve
To ask me “when I left, did you really hurt?”
Fuck you get away
You can get the fuck out and stay
I just don’t want you back
Leave the fuck out of my house my life and…
Fuck you get away
Find another heart to break
Cos’ mine’s already torn
I wish that you were never born…
Fuck off , get away
Find another heart to break
I found another you
I took my time but I went through… YOU.

Back Home
02:41
|
|||
|
Whenever you call my name
I’ll be here all the same
I will take care of you
I will change false in true
In my place you can go
On my ground you can grow
Anytime anywhere
There’s no load I can’t share
In your arms I belong
My road has been too long
So sick to be alone
Honey take me back home
Spent the last thirteen years travelling away
Have lost you and myself on the way
Crossed the oceans and the seven seas too
Never found anyone as perfect as you
Among the crowd never felt so alone
All I want to say now is “take me back home”….
Take me back home….

Unhappy song
04:22
|
|||
|
I’m falling
I’m sinking
Broken
Torn into pieces
I’m tired
I’m dying
Lazy
No good for nothing
I’m vicious
Contagious
Wicked
Sick to the bone
I’m nothing
I’m nowhere
No one
Better get ready to
RUN DRIVE SAIL FLY FAR AWAY FROM ME
GO AND STAY AS FAR AS YOU CAN FROM ME
I’m everything but the dreams that you had
I am a basket case with dirt inside
I’m everything but the man that you need
Why can’t you understand you’d better …
RUN DRIVE SAIL FLY FAR AWAY FROM ME
GO AND STAY AS FAR AS YOU CAN FROM ME
I did everything I could to make you go
‘cos baby your love is killing me slow
I’m so ugly and you’re so beautiful
RUN DRIVE SAIL FLY FAR AWAY FROM ME
GO AND STAY AS FAR AS YOU CAN FROM ME

Belfast
04:57
|

|
Found love in Belfast at night in your arms
Summer of 85
You said Irish love could do no harm
With poetry in your eyes
Found gold in you heart that night when I
First came inside your skin
The end of my life as a child
The end and the beginning
I’m back in Belfast at night
Nineteen eighty five
BELFAST
Your street’s on fire
But you took me higher
Your street’s on fire
Found peace in Belfast at night loving you
Despite the chaos outside
‘cos deep inside I surely knew
That NO GOD was on our side
Found faith in Belfast at night in your bed
So evident and so new
There can be no God, it’s in our head
My religion is you.
I’m back in Belfast at night
Nineteen eighty five
BELFAST
Your street’s on fire
But you took me higher
Your street’s on fire

The Hole
04:22
|
|||
|
Got a hole in my hand
I can’t handle anything
Got a hole in my hand
There’s nothing that I ever kept
Since I don’t have your hand in mine
The hole gets bigger all the time
Got a hole in my hand
I can’t handle anything
Got a hole in my wing
And my plane soon’s gonna crash
Got a hole in my wing
And as I’m falling no one catch
Since I don’t have your breast to land on
The hole gets bigger on and on
Got a hole in my wing
And my plane soon’s gonna crash
Got a hole in my heart
Baby since you left me
Since you tore it apart
And scattered all the pieces of me
Since you’re not mine anymore
The hole gets bigger more and more
Got a hole in my heart
Baby since you left me
But that was too many holes to fill
No time no more to love or feel
The only way out is in my hand
One more hole… and it’s the end
Got a hole in my head
Baby since I shot myself
Got a hole in my head
I feel better now this I can tell
Don’t even miss you no more
The game is over, hey, what’s the score?
Got a hole in my song,
I didn’t know how to end it.

Sorry (Fuck Jude Law !)
03:10
|
|||
|
You know that men ain’t made to fly
But you would still like me to try
Just for the love of you
You wish that I could change the world
You wish my straight hair got some curl
Just for the love of you
You want me to write you a song
To be fragile and to be strong
Just for the love of you
But the one you want me to be
I’m pretty sure you’ll never see
So find yourself another me
I’m not a hero and I’m sorry
I don’t sing like Bono and I’m sorry
Don’t paint like Miro and I’m sorry
I’m not a Saint, I know, I’m sorry
I’m not that strong but I would fight
I’m not that sensible but I’d cry for the love of you
I’d kill a man with my own hands
I’d burn the prophets and the saints just for the love of you
I’d be a hero if you want it
I’d sing like Bono if you want it
I’d paint like Miro if you want it
I’d be a Saint also if you want it
But will it ever be enough?
Baby will you one day be content?
With what you see when you see me
Your old man that lately turned 40…
I’m not a hero and I’m sorry
Don’t look like Jude Law, (fuck!) I’m sorry
Don’t sing like Bono, I’m sorry
I’m not a saint, I know, I’m sorry…

My way (à ma façon)
03:46
|
|||
|
Some do maths
Some do drugs
Some do trips to Oblivion
Some do cars
Some stay home
Some play roulette with a loaded gun
I write songs
Some are weak
Some are strong
Some drive fast but they die young
Some believe and some just don’t
But most of them think the other’s wrong
I write songs
Wee melodies to sing along
Whether with friends or alone
Some are sick
Some are sane
Some have muscles
Some have brains
Some do money
Some are fools
Some play the game
Some make the rules
But none of them know what they do
I found my branch to cling to
I write songs
Wee melodies to sing along
Whether with friends or alone
Whether when sober or when you’re drunk
Pour pas crier ton nom partout
Je fais des chansons et c’est tout
Maman.

To Lloyd Cole
03:56
|

|
I’ve got no story to tell at all
Nothing happens to me no more
I’m a married man and I’m in love
With my wife, how original
Once I was young then I grew old
Once I was hot then, I got cold
How can you write a song this way?
That’s why I’m asking you, today
Hey, Mister Cole!
Could you write a song for me?
‘cos I’m tired of singing bullshits about me
Hey, Lloyd Cole!
Could you write a song for me?
Just like the one you wrote about Jennifer, and Rusty.
No brand new friend, no butterfly
No lost week-end, no blue skies
I know you will not write for me
But a young idealist I’m proud to be
Hey, Mister Cole!
Could you write a song for me?
‘cos I’m tired of singing bullshits about me
Hey, Lloyd Cole!
Could you write a song for me?
Just like the one you wrote about Jennifer, and Rusty.

Little Bird
03:08

Hey little bird won’t you fly away
I opened the door of your cage
You can go wherever you want and stay
I’ll be fine
Leave me behind
It’ll take some time
But I’ll be fine
Hey little girl won’t you call my name
I opened the door to let you in
You can come into my life and stay
If not I’ll be fine
Leave me behind
It’ll take some time
But I’ll be fine
Hey little love
Don’t you take my heart
Open the door to let me out
You know the song “love will tear us apart”
I’ll be fine
Leave me behind
It’ll take some time
But I’ll be fine
That’s a lie
