SPACE GIRL, SPACE BOY

1. Come back to Venus with me

My spaceship's orbiting

It's a house of fun and mystery

It's a place for you and me

We'll make the world on time

Put on warp factor 9

Let the stars into your life

Interplanetary

Extraordinary

Be my laser girl tonight

 

Ch:

Be my space girl

I'll be your space boy

Space and time

Can make you mine

Here in spaceland

There's a place and

You and I

Touch the sky - hold on

Cos I'm really gonna take you high

 

 

2. Through the deserts of the rings of Saturn

To a distant galaxy

It's the same old thinking pattern

But it's all that a space boy needs

And I will mesmerise you

I'll magic carpet ride you

And leave the waiting world nehind

Interplanetary

Extraordinary

Be my laser girl tonight

 

Ch:

I'll be your space boy

Space and time

Can make you mine

Here in spaceland

There's a place and

You and I

Touch the sky - hold on

Cos I'm really gonna take you high

 

TONIGHT

Maybe it's a bad case of adrenaline

Or maybe it's all in

The way that she flirts

Or the hitch in that skirt

Or the blink in your eye lids

Beating on my heart

Tick, tick, tick, tick

Keep back, I might just explode

If I can't get you in tow

I hear you talking - oh no

I hear you shout about it

I see the light flashing in your eyes

I mean that walking out now

I can't get by without it now

It took me over tonight

 

Ch: Cos I need something

To shout about tonight

Now I've fallen out of sight

I said goodbye

I put the world to one side

Now I spin faster than light

Get the crash bar tonight

 

Cos tonight

Might be the night

I lose control

 

SOLO

Now stop that talking

Can't make out that inflection

I say the whole thing's out of sight

And let's stop stalling now

Take a step in my direction now

I can take us over tonight

 

Ch: Cos tonight

Might be the night

I lose control

 

It'll take us over tonight

Let it take us over tonight

 

COME BACK WHEN YOU GROW UP

I saw a girl looking so pert

Looking so nervous

Going for a headline

Going past bedtime

Getting turned over

But all those tears you cried

All those tears lied

Just playing was a game of suicide

Thought it was only a moment of passion

Then there was another day

You make out till you can't

Make out a thing they say

 

Don't try to hide your pain inside

Until love slips away

I know it ain't easy

I know you're out of luck

 

 

Come back baby, when you grow up

 

I saw a man holding out a hand

Smiling on purpose

Watching for a tell tale sign

For the time to take you

To the circus

All happened so fast

And it was so unreal

Now you couldn't tell me more than what you feel

Turned into a new disaster

Every night it's a different game

They tell me they recall the face but not the name

 

Come back baby, when you grow up

 

CERTIFIED (DANCE VERSION)

1. I'm bouncing - bouncing off walls

Sitting waiting for your call

If I was on the 10th floor

I could jump so I could fall

So don't waste time

I can't stand in line

When I say I want you I really want to

 

Ch 1:

But everytime I try

Baby one two three four

Five times you knock me out of line

Come and get the girl

Cos her head is in a whirl

Going crazy I'm certified

 

2. Can't keep - can't keep control

Can't fake it I can't stand to lose you

Love is like a rainbow

I keep chasing but I can't get to you

It's not a crime

It's just my style

My love for you is certified

 

Ch 1

 

Break: Hold me hold me

Feel I got something to say

Hold me hold me - hold me hold me

Baby don't put me away

 

Ch 1

 

Ch 2:

Baby please don't stop me

If you - stop me tonight

I can't be held responsible

Cos my love is certified

 

Ch 3:

Everytime I try to love you

One, two, three, four

Times you put me out of my mind

Now I'm not a baby

Just a love-tied crazy

Girl crazy I'm certified

 

Ch 1

 

 

DON'T TANGO ON MY HEART (Nashville Version) 

I found a situation

So last night I let my life go

Now my friends say maybe

I must be kinda crazy

Getting that close

But it's hopeless

So all I've got to say is

 

Take me apart

But don't tango on my heart

 

I walk around in a daydream

It's unreal

I can talk but I can't hear what I say

I just keep playing

The song they kept on playing

When I held you close

And I knew

Oh I knew you would

 

Take me apart

Maybe tango on my heart

Don't stop killing me now

Let me wrap myself

Around your finger now

 

When I shut my eyes

It get's me high

Of all the girls and all the lives

And you walked in to mine

And I'm flying, flying, flying

 

[Solo]

Take me apart

Don't tango on my heart

Don't bring me down

Just spin me round and round

and round and round and

Take me apart

Just tango on my heart

Take me to town

Let me go down for the third time while you

Tango on my

Tango on my

Tango on my heart

etc

FIVE KNUCKLE SHUFFLE 

1.  Man on a mission - gotta get it done

No time for wishing - gotta get me some

Rain on a Monday

She left me, but I've got something

A bit of myself, a little self help

Here to lend me a hand

Shandy with a Tommy Tank

 

Ch:  There's a five knuckle shuffle in town

There's a five knuckle shuffle going down

Got a five knuckle shuffle in hand

Cos I'm a five knuckle shuffling man

 

2.  Man losing vision - feel a little numb

It's not my religion - just a rule of my thumb

If your girl's gone missing

All you gotta do is get a little wrist in

A bit of myself, a little self help

Here to lend me a hand

Shandy with a Tommy Tank

 

Ch:  There's a five knuckle shuffle in town

There's a five knuckle shuffle going down

Got a five knuckle shuffle in hand

I'm a five knuckle shuffling man

 

Break:  Some girls call, but don't come around

Some kind of girls just ain't no good for my health

But one thing never lets me down

That's my appointment with myself

 

Solo

 

Ch to fade

 

 

 PANORAMIC REAL EGYPTIAN HAIR 

1.  There's a girl that makes me

Feel my body's dissipating

I'm in pieces on the ground

That I worship as she walks around

I see her down my corridor

I wish that I knew semaphore

I'd send her out a sign

To say hello because my tongue is tied

But I can't even find

How to get her eyes to meet with mine

They cannot see

My heart bleeding all over me

 

Ch:

I've got a new horizon

Now that I've set eyes on

She turns me into Byron

I can't get no satisfaction

While my heart's in traction

If I had bricks to spare

I'd build a pyramid for her

And live in Egypt where

I'd stand and watch the wind blow

Through her panoramic real Egyptian hair

 

 

2.  Double vision, indecision

Should I ask if she'd be willing

To help me to find

The piece of me she left behind

I'd tell her that it's obvious

She's my three wishes all at once

She's my champagne on ice

The extra chilli on my fries

Her name begins with E

Her name rhymes with ecstasy

I'm craving, salivating

And some other things that end

With "ating"…

 

Ch:

I've got a new horizon

Now that I've set eyes on

She turns me into Byron

I can't get no satisfaction

While my heart's in traction

If I had bricks to spare

I'd build a pyramid for her

And live in Egypt where

I'd sit and watch the wind blow

Through her panoramic real Egyptian hair

 

 IT'S SO YOU 

 It's So You

She's a baby that booms

She's got a webcam in her room

So we can see her getting naked

I wanna get another hit before

She discovers it's the nearest thing

She's ever gonna be to famous

Shave your eyebrows, paint your hair

[And pretend you're on TV]

Wear your pants below the stairs

[It's so me, it's so me, it's so ME!]



It's so you

It's so you

You're so all we ever wanted

It's so you

It's so you

It's so everything, you're everything

Everybody loves you cos

They know you love them too
  

 She's got the collagen jab

And every other little must have

Body full of holes in different places

If she wants, she fakes

Does she give

For bloody hell's sake

Not if you're holding all the aces

All designer things to wear

[Leave it hanging out]

Bleach your asshole

We don't care

If the sun shines out

Or in and out, or in cos it’s so
 


Did you ever think about

Anyone outside of you?

Their hands are reaching out

For yours too
