some things

He’s a long way from home
No one’s answering the ‘phone
Maybe nobody’s there
Things are not very clear

‘Cause the fights and the lies are all piling up
He feels he’s going to drown
Disappear without a sound

Some things aren’t good for us
Whether we know it or not
Some things aren’t meant for us
You either accept it or you don’t

She’s at home all alone
Someone’s calling the ‘phone
If it’s him, he can wait
She’s deciding his fate

And she cries and she cries
She can’t cry enough to wash away her pain
And it’s driving her insane

Some things aren’t good for us
Whether we know it or not
Some things aren’t meant for us
You either accept it or you don’t

(Solo break)

They don’t talk, they just fight
They’ve forgotten what the argument’s about
And the spark has been snuffed out

Some things aren’t good for us
Whether we know it or not
Some things aren’t meant for us
You either accept it or you don’t

sticks & stones

I think they realise
What they say and do
Is affecting you

There is no grand design
It’s amusement for
Their feeble minds

So you brace yourself
Against what’s to come
And you tell yourself
That they’re all so dumb
I heard someone say that
It’s just a phase
That they all go through
So it’s up to you

“They’re only words”
“They’re only words”
“They’re only words”

It’s all the same to you
You excuse yourself
‘Cause they lit the fuse

Your life has purpose now
You commit yourself
To erase these clowns

When the meek inherit
The whole of Earth
You’ll be claiming back
All the years of hurt
Revenge is a dish
That is best served cold
It will warm your heart
And will feed your soul

Chorus x 3

Sticks and stones may break your bones, but words will always hurt you... [x3]

Chorus x 3

the things we do for nothing

Please give me something else to talk about
The same old subject just sounds lame
It’s not my fault that I can’t let it slide
When you take things beyond the pale

Chorus
And the things we do for nothing
Are the things you use for gain
There’s no substitute for talent
And I won’t shed a tear
As your so-called career
Comes crashing down around
Your ears

Can you tell me what you are famous for?
You’re the media’s favourite whore
And now that you are public property
Can’t you see that we’re all bored?

Chorus

You might fool them, you don’t fool me
(You might fool them, you don’t fool me)
You might fool them, you don’t fool me
(You might fool them, you don’t fool me)

Your sell by date just came and went
You can’t prevent your steep descent
Your sell by date just came and went
You can’t prevent your steep descent

Are you sure you want this?
Are you sure you want this?
Are you sure you want this?
Are you sure you want this?
Are you sure you want this?
Are you sure you want this?
Are you sure you want this?
Are you sure you want this?

the boy who had it all

Don’t you know me?
The boy who had it all
I remember when you used to call
It was long, long ago

Don’t you know me?
The boy who had it all
I remember when you used to call
It was long, long ago

Always had it my way
People did what I said
Big fish in a little pool
I was making headlines
Everyone on my side
Spending money like a fool

Don’t you know me?
The boy who had it all
I remember when you used to call
It was long, long ago

Everybody’s moved on
Married off or long gone
I feel the sky is going to fall
I don’t speak the language
I am lost and stranded
I don’t really understand

And I knew them all
Stars big and small
Dealers and Queens
And all in between
But no one calls
No one calls
No one calls

Don’t you know me?
You always used to call
I remember
The boy who had it all
