Waiting For The Summer 03:38
lyrics
buy track
Freezing cold but there's Sun I want fun in the Sun Waiting for the summer to arrive for me Lying there on the beach In the reach of the Sun Waiting for the summer to arrive for me I like to feel safe in the happiness I like to feel warm in the Sun I dream about going on holiday When the summer has only just begun Freezing cold but there's Sun I want fun in the Sun Waiting for the summer to arrive for me Lying there on the beach In the reach of the Sun Waiting for the summer to arrive for me I like to listen to the birds sing I like to watch the passing clouds I like to look at the trees with their leaves on And know that the winter has gone I want fun in the Sun Waiting for the summer to arrive for me Lying there on the beach In the reach of the Sun Waiting for the summer to arrive for me

Computer 04:06

Look into my eyes and i'll show you something Don't take away my flies and don't jump on a spring I wanna kill myself and i don't wanna play computer anymore Eat more tobacco and never go out to play Watch your own hand grow and throw yourself away I wanna kill myself and i don't wanna play computer anymore Sing a sad song and give yourself a plan Find a shoe where you belong and telephone a man I wanna kill myself and i don't wanna play computer anymore

Jamie, what you doin' now What you doin' now girl? Please, please tell me Cuz I need to know, I need to know now When I was down, you came to me And promised you'd always be By my side, now you're gone And I'm waiting patiently But Jamie, I want you to know Jamie, Jamie, I'm so glad you're mine We'll be together a long time Jamie, who's faxin' you now? Who's dialin' your car phone? Please, please be true You know that I trust you, do that which you must do You've got the Beach Boys, and your friend's got the Stones But I know you won't leave me alone Sometimes it seems you're not with me It hurts me so much, It hurts me so much You are the most, you're so rad, you're so fresh and i'm so bad I am yours, you are mine Show me where and I will sign Jaime, believe me, I won't let you down Cuz you are the best lawyer in town

lyrics

Simple Simon went down to his local DSS They said "do you want money?" he answered them "yes" They said "you'll get no money so just you go away" "Do you think that we are paying you to work or just to play" "You've got to prove you're looking for employment" they said "You don't just think we're paying you for staying home in bed "Four million unemployed in this country alone So Simple Simon get a job, or just go home" Simple Simon met a pieman going to the fair Said simple Simon to the pieman "let me taste your wares" Said the pieman to Simon "let me see your penny" Said Simon to the pieman "no, indeed i have not any"

Can Anybody Help Me? 03:50
lyrics
buy track
Couldn't sleep again last night There's something weighing on my mind I couldn't tell you what it is I know that there's something not right I wanna get up and scream and shout Just to let this feeling out I wanna give you everything that I've got Just for something to think about So can anybody help me? Does anybody even care? I don't know what to do And my head's up in the sky 'Cos my feet are on the ground It means that I can't even cry So long to think about what to do Why can't I ever see things through? So next time lady luck has a glance I know, I know I won't miss my chance So can anybody help me? Does anybody even care?

Blootered (Kris' anthem) 03:07
lyrics
buy track
Well i drank a little beer and i drank a little wine I drank a little vodka, now i'm feeling mighty fine I drank a little rum with a little splash of coke I took a cigarette and i proceeded to smoke it Now i'm feeling fine Now i'm feeling fine Well i drank myself some coffee and i drank myself some tea I looked into the mirror for to have a look at me I looked into my eyes and said "why don't you go away?" And i waited expectantly for what i had to say Now i'm feeling fine Now i'm feeling fine sometimes i wish i could go away sometimes i wish there was another way sometimes i can't think of what to say 'Scuse me sir, but you're in the way (get out of the way!) Well i drank a little beer and i drank a little wine I drank a little vodka, now i'm feeling mighty fine I drank myself some rum with a little splash of coke I took a cigarette and i proceeded to smoke it Now i'm feeling fine Now i'm feeling fine Well i drank myself some coffee and i drank myself some tea I looked into the mirror for to have a look at me I looked into my eyes and said "why don't you go away?" And i waited expectantly for what i had to say

Freeloader 05:09
lyrics
buy track
I used to be a genius but now i'm cured thought i was alive but i was just fooled Freeloader, you're no good for anyone And maybe it will rain today, it's anybody's guess I think i'll run away and die just like the rest, but Freeloader, you're no good for anyone Will you tell me what i want to hear? (want to hear) Come closer but don't get too near (don't get too near) Will you tell me what i want to hear? (want to hear) Come closer but don't get too near I know i should have really tried to cry upon your shoulder But as the time passed by i just seemed to get older Freeloader, you're no good for anyone If things are different now, you know i'm truly sorry I tried too hard and things fell down around me Freeloader, you're no good for anyone Will you tell me what i want to hear? (want to hear) Come closer but don't get too near (don't get too near) Will you tell me what i want to hear? (want to hear) Come closer but don't get too near Now we know just what we know, it isn't very much I'm not sure what i can do to try and stop the rust Freeloader, you're no good for anyone Will you tell me what i want to hear? (want to hear) Come closer but don't get too near (don't get too near) Will you tell me what i want to hear? (want to hear) Come closer but don't get too near

For The Better 04:24
lyrics
buy track
You blind yourself to the real truth You know you can't tell wrong from right You're gonna cut your soul in two You've got to get out of this fucking shite You're in a mess and your brain's fogged over And you want to sing and shout it You want to change the world for the better So you better do something about it Go and do something with your life Godmade you for a reason Settle for something now, you'll settle for anything Use the brain you've been given You're in a mess and your brain's fogged over And you want to sing and shout it You want to change the world for the better So you better do something about it So you want to change the world, for the better...

Days (The Kinks cover) 03:43
lyrics
buy track
Thank you for the days Those endless days, those sacred days you gave me I'm thinking of the days I won't forget a single day, believe me I bless the light I bless the light that lights on you believe me And though you're gone You're with me every single day, believe me Days I'll remember all my life Days when you can't see wrong from right You took my life But then I knew that very soon you'd leave me But it's all right Now I'm not frightened of this world, believe me I wish today could be tomorrow The night is dark It just brings sorrow, let it wait

about

This is a rehearsal set, recorded live in the living room at Peacocktail Close on the 21st of September 1996. I think this was in the middle of our five gig tour supporting Wolfestone, on a night off.
