şarkı sözü,şarkı sözleri, Lyrics

If only I could stand
On my own two feet
Oh honey, then I`d know
Life could be so sweet

Someone to drive
Someone to blame
Someone to rush through my veins
Someone to wash it all away

* Who can I turn to now
If not you, tell me
Who can I turn to
If not you

If I could get
What I want for free
Then I wouldn`t have to borrow
Take a tranquilliser
From your limousine driver
before we crash into tomorrow

Someone to love
Someone to hold me
Someone so courageous
Someone to drag me in from the cold

(* repeat 3 times)

Who can I turn to (tell me who)
Who`s gonna be there (if not you)
Tell me who (tell me)
Tell me who (tell me)
Tell me who
Tell me who can I turn to
(if not you)
Ooh (tell me who)
You`ve got to, you`ve got to
Tell me who

Vandals in ermine
Rip city skylines
Dodge truth and virtue
With slick city bylines

A paragon of virtue
Until they hurt you
In power and in status
We know they hate us

So where is the heaven
And where is there love?
Where the hell is the heaven?
That you`re so proud of

Power is preaching
The virtues of poverty
Poor are left feeding
On cruel comedy…sad laughter

Rescue us all now
From fumes that choke us
Shift then these sad lives
Into sweet focus

So where is the heaven
And where is there love?
Where the hell is the heaven?
That you`re so proud of

Prestige it sits high
On Mammons alter
Porsche hungry pinheads
On champagne and oysters

Head full of hollow thoughts
Handful of sushi
Plug into Dallas babe
Plug into Dynasty

So where is the heaven
And where is there love?
Where the hell is the heaven?
That you`re so proud of

Now I am loving
Where once I was hating
Leading a good life
Stopped paging Satan

Played devils advocate
So many times
Lived in the shadows
But the sun will shine. Shine. Shine

So where is the heaven
And where is there love?
Where the hell is the heaven?
That you`re so proud of

Where is the kingdom?
You say we squander?
Where the hell is the heaven?
Must we wait much longer?

Goodbye!

Every face in the street, everyone that I meet
I think it`s you in disguise
I hear sweet angels sing, life`s a radiant thing
I`m bewitched and tantalized, yeah

What`s good about goodbye?
No one ever told me
What`s good about goodbye?
Wish you could hold me
Nothing fair about fairwell
Nothing fair at all
What`s good about goodbye?
Nothing at all

I`d be fooling myself, chasing anyone else
It`s you that I prize
Why praise to heaven above, why praising God for sweet love?
When it`s you I idolize

(Chorus)

What`s good, What`s good
What`s good about goodbye?
What`s good, What`s good
I feel bad about good goodbye

No truth in the rumour that parting is sweet
You lose your sense of humour, you feel incomplete
There`s heaven in hello, hell in goodbye
Now that you`re leaving, I`d rather die

(Chorus)

Goodbye…

Debonair lullabies in melodies revealed
In deep despair on lonely nights
He knows just how you feel
The slyest rhymes – the sharpest suits
In miracles made real

Like a bird in flight on a hot sweet night
You know you`re right just to hold her tight
He soothes it right – makes it outtasite
And everything`s good in the world tonight!

When Smokey sings – I hear violins
When Smokey sings – I forget everything
As she`s packing her things
As she`s spreading her wings
The front door might slam
But the back door it rings
And Smokey sings…he sings

Elegance in eloquence – for sale or rent or hire
Should I say – Yes I match his best
Then I would be a liar
Symphonies that soothe the rage
When lovers hearts catch fire

Like a bird in flight on a hot sweet night
You know you`re right just to hold her tight
He soothes it right – makes it outtasite
And everything`s good in the world tonight!

When Smokey sings – I hear violins
When Smokey sings – I forget everything
As she`s packing her things
As she`s spreading her wings
Smashing the hell
With the heaven she brings
Then Smokey sings…he sings

Luther croons
Sly`s the original – originator
James screams
Marvin was the only innovator
But nothing can compare
Nothing can compare
When Smokey sings

When Smokey sings – I hear violins
When Smokey sings – I forget everything
As she`s packing her things
As she`s spreading her wings
She threw back the ring
When Smokey sings…
Smokey sings…
Smokey sings…

I was a rich man, I was a thief
I was a sailor, shipwrecked on a reef
I was a coward, I was afraid
I was couragious, man I was brave

Until the oceans dry
Until the day you die
Until the stars fall out the sky

Welcome to the real world baby
Welcome to the way things are
Welcome to the real world darling
Step on for shangri-la
Welcome to the real world baby
Paradise guarantee
Welcome to the real world
Come and see what we`ve bequeathed

I was an angel, idolised
I was a devil in a disguise
I was a stalion, I was a mule
I was misguided, but nobody`s fool

(Chorus)

The day that I was born, daddy placed me on his knee
Said son you`ve got to be, a better man than me
You`re inherriting the world, make your mark on history
Welcome to the real world, be what you`ve got to be

Welcome to the real world

Have you heard the latest? (you love you)
Have you seen who just walked in (vain vain vain vain)
(Uh huh, you love you) Right over there
She`s so vain vain vain vain
Vain vain vain vain

I`m glad you`ve found someone who loves you
But sad to say that someone is you
And now perhaps you`ll both be happy
Guess that makes two just you and you
Someone who cares so much about you
But does that someone have to be you
Bom bom bom bom bom bom bom bom yeah
Bom bom bom bom bom bom bom bom yeah

Vanity kills, it don`t pay bills
Vanity kills, you love you
Vanity kills, it don`t pay bills
Vanity kills, it kills

So glad I found you glancing in the mirror
Gazing deeply at love`s patron saint
Admire the frame, survey the scenery
Or are you just inspecting the paint
Temptation`s strong modesty`s so weak
High on yourself humble you ain`t
Bom bom bom bom bom bom bom bom yeah
Bom bom bom bom bom bom bom bom yeah

Vanity kills, it don`t pay bills
Vanity kills, you love you
Vanity kills, it don`t pay bills
Vanity kills, you love you
Vanity kills, it don`t pay bills (no way)
Vanity kills, you love you
Vanity kills, it don`t pay bills
Vanity kills, it kills

So vain, vain vain vain
You love you (yeah)
Give it, give it us, give it us
So vain, so vain, so vain

Vanity kills, it don`t pay bills
Vanity kills, you love you
Vanity kills, it don`t pay bills
Vanity kills, you love you
Vanity kills, it don`t pay bills
Vanity kills, you love you

Vanity kills, if the blast don`t get you
Then the fallout will

You love you

When the postman don`t call on Valentine`s day
And Santa Claus don`t come on a Christmas Day
That umbrella won`t work on a rainy day
Don`t ask me, I already know

When they find you beached on the barrier reef
And the only pleasure treasured is in map relief
The choice is yours, sure, saint or thief
Don`t ask me I already know

When they baked your cake in little slices,
Kept your eyes on rising prices,
Wound up winning booby prizes;
I`m sure you`d like to think you know what life is

Find destiny through magazines
Liplicking, unzipping
Harpers and Queens
From here to eternity,
Without in-betweens,
Don`t ask me, I already know

With your heart on parade and your heart on parole
I hope you find a sucker to buy that mink stole
School for scandal,
Guess who`s enrolled?
So ask me, I already know

When they find you beached on the barrier reef
When the postman don`t call on Valentine`s Day
When the only pleasure treasured is in map relief
When you don`t tell the truth, that`s the price you pay

When I`m shaking a hand, I`m clenching a fist
If you gave me a pound for the moments I missed
And I got dancing lessons for all the lips I shoulda kissed
I`d be a millionaire
I`d be a Fred Astaire

Love`s just the gimmick
A mime or a mimic
That makes sex seem respectable
Make you feel more than a dream holding me
Holding me, holding me, holding me

Lips that seem so kissable
Unpermissible unzippable unzip!
Why take pleasure in censorship
Unzip! unzip! unzip!

She`s vegetarian except when it comes
To sex
He`s strictly ad lib
Except when he consults the text

Lips that seem so kissable
Unpermissible unzippable unzip!
You`re just the captain of a sinking ship
Unzip! unzip! unzip!
Lips that seem so kissable
Unpermissable unzippable unzip!
You shoulda let your snarl, slip
Unzip! unzip! unzip!

Do you remember sunday nights, summer time at Shoom
Joy big enough to fill the world, just inside that room
Do you remember Friday nights at the Hacienda?
Armistace for gangs, no fights, just beats to make the world surrender

Was it all a dream?
Was it some nightmare?
Crazy as it seems
Love was in the air
No war, no hate, no more
If you`d unlock the secrets of your
No war, no hate, no more
If you`d unlock the secrets of your heart

Day to day existence got its gentle grip on you
Suffocating your soul, eclipsing everything you do

(chorus)

Everybody just looking for an answer
Everybody till the day they die
Everybody live with indecision
Everybody seek, everybody find
Everybody want to dance till sunrise
Everybody want to sweat some noise
Everybody want to kiss that DJ
Every single girl, everysingle boy
Everybody got their own sweet wisdom
Everybody just a look to start
Everybody got it, inside their heart

(chorus)

No war, no hate, no more

There`s a gang I`ve just joined
There`s a gang I`ve just joined
Three million strong you`d agree
Four million strong you`d agree
Enrollment was easy, so easy
Getting out proves to be the difficulty

From Land`s End to John O`Groats
From Land`s End to John O`Groats
They are making ends meet
Mending holes in their coat
Fasting and feasting on bread and margarine
Burning dreams build upon buried hopes

United Kingdom – you`d better ring them
You`ve a solution – you better bring them
United Kingdom – United Kingdom
You`ve a solution – you better bring them

Opportunity, I guess they all came and went
Finding it hard
Finding the rent you`ll find it funny
With your finger running down
Situations vacant
In school he was an athlete
Now he`s not so self-assured
“After all of these O-levels is this my reward?”
There`s a silent majority, that`s seen and
never heard from Charles I, Charles II
To Charles III

United Kingdom – you`d better ring them
You`ve a solution – you better bring them
United Kingdom – United Kingdom

This busted, rusted, upper-crusted
Bankrupted done and dusted
No-man-to-be-trusted United Kingdom

Proud to stand beneath the Union Jack?
Happy dealing up a no ace pack?
Polishing black boots
Priming the riot squad
There go I but for the grace of God
Covering up the agony with mindless entertainment
You`ll be happy when they`re ripping up the pavement
Bringing down the axe on steelworks and foundries
Someone said love knows no boundaries
Close your eyes and think of England
Lie back and think of her

United Kingdom – you better ring them
You`ve a solution – you better bring them
