Safety Seat.

I’ve been everywhere
I’ve been down and I’ve been up
Drank water from a crystal glass
Champagne from a broken cup
I climbed a million mountains
I never moved my feet
I can do anything
When I’m in my safety seat.

I swam the seven seas
From timbucktoo to paradise
I cruised around on mars
The weather was really nice
I fought a hundred battles
Not once did I retreat
Say I can do anything
When I’m in my safety seat

I danced on the razors edge
Did the cha cha and the boogaloo
I sailed across the oceans
In a fibreglass canoe
I did all this and more
And I never left my street
You can do anything
When you’re in your safety seat
You can do anything
When you’re in your safety seat.

Body Language

My baby likes talking, she speaks good Chinese
She can recite Shakespeare in French or Japanese
She’s fluent in German, to me it’s double Dutch
Apart from dodgy English I don’t know very much

Chorus
She sure rattles my cage when we communicate
In body language,
Body language
Body language.
Body language
Body language.

She sings in Turkish, quotes Yeats in Greek
Just seeing her dancing I go giddy and weak

Chorus

Bridge
She’s totally captivating, her moves are unique
Nothing needs translating when I hear her body speak

I Don’t Want To Spoil The Party.

There’s a party tonight
It starts at eight
Everybody says
It’s gonna be great
But I’ve decided
I wont be there
I need more time
To get over her.

Chorus
I can’t hide how I feel inside
Everyone would see my misery
A sad face would be out of place
And I don’t want to spoil the party

Maybe she’ll be there
With her new man
Dancing with him
And holding his hand
Friends say come along
But it’s too soon
My deep distress
Would cloud the room

chorus

bridge
I’ve told myself to forget the past
To pick up myself and move on
But I’m still so in love with her
It’s easier said than done

chorus

Definitely Different.

She’s definitely different, different from the rest
She’s miles ahead and I’m more than impressed
She sent me skyward with a goodnight kiss
I’m definitely different I never felt like this.

She’s definitely different, different in every way
Her eyes can’t talk but I hear what the say
They tell me I’m in heaven suspended love and bliss
I’m definitely different I never felt like this.

Bridge
We met just yesterday, but who cares about time
I’m gonna show the world that she’s mine all mine

She’s definitely different, different and unique
I’m feeling sensations just hearing her speak
This is a new beginning to a love I’ve always missed
I’m definitely different I never felt like this

She’s definitely different, different from the rest
She’s miles ahead and I’m more than impressed
She sent me skyward with a goodnight kiss
I’m definitely different I never felt like this.

Love Is A Vending Machine.

Love is a vending machine
Everything looks delicious
When nothing moves
You feel suspicious
Succulent sweets and tempting treats
Are behind an elaborate screen
Yeah
Love is a vending machine.

Love is a vending machine
Sometimes you get rejected
You’re empty inside
Feeling dejected
You turn away it’s not your day
Your heart sinks like a submarine
Yeah
Love is a vending machine.

Bridge
Love needs a strong foundation
And a regular service routine
Cause love breaks down
Just like vending machine.

Love is a vending machine
It’s a complex thing
When you hit the buttons
Effects are amazing
Hunger denied gets satisfied
You’re the cat who got the cream
Yeah
Love is a vending machine
====================================

Being Me.

I practice what I preach
But I’m no preacher
I got lessons to teach
But I’m no teacher.

Chorus
I carry on, keeping on
Getting things right, getting things wrong
What a curious mystery, being me.

I obey the law
But bend the rules
I’m an educated man
But sometimes a fool.

Chorus repeat

Bridge
It’s evolution, a leaf on the family tree
A story not yet written but already history.

I live for peace
But I will fight
Should darkness fall
I’ll flower in the night

Chorus repeat
