THE LAW ACCORDING TO STEVE
Steve I’m relieved
you’ve taken all this time out to help me
you’re a man of the world
and I’ve hit a dry patch with my girl
see my hands how they shake
I need your advice before it’s too late
oh look out for steve
don’t you let that fool misguide you
you be true to who you are
must you believe the law according to steve
Steve thinks love’s a joke
just ask the countless girlfriends that he’s broke
hold her hand then twist her arm
go to kiss her goodnight and then yawn
does he want her for himself
is he privately pleased things ain't going well
oh look out for Steve
can’t seem to do right
and she’s forever up tight
got to give her room to breathe
don’t cuff her round the ear
don’t kick her up the stairs
no no don’t you listen to Steve
does he want you for himself
he’s had a moustache and you never can tell
oooh Steve

ATMOSPHERE HOOVER
you fool you think she’s so good for you
after all you’ve been through never more
the witch bath you’ve bathed in
laid down faced in
but your tragedy brings a moth to it’s flame
you’re in for more of the same
yeah you are you that she moves you
she’s just an atmosphere hoover
first sign of fun she sucks ‘till it’s gone
the poor love you are
and she tells you that day after day
because as long as you’re down
you’ll be hers to obey
you’ve got to need her and your tears feed her
please understand she only wants half a man
she’s casualty’s greatest fan and still she moves you
you think that she’s foxy
she’s got munchausen by proxy
it’s always been a dream yeah
to date a guy with leaukemia

FEEL BETTER
I've just landed from the tenth storey
bounced on my soft soft head
bit off my bottom lip through much worry
my top one holds it’s breath
you should have known stupid
she’d run you through
so get off home cupid
round here you’ve got your work cut out for you
nothing I do nothing’s gonna make me feel better
nothing I do nothing’s gonna make me feel better now
one thing you left behind in your brainstorm
unopened in the bathroom
I bought to try and stop our love rainstorm
discarded french perfume
just me and you Muskrat against the world
oh it’s so true Muskrat
that we feel so bad all for someone’s little girl
moon I’m a great guy
could you shed some light ‘cause I don’t know why
you’ve had my pants down babe
I’m gonna sue you
I’ll gets years back fat face
it’s low but I’ve learn't all my tricks from you

MAD ABOUT THE GIRL
it’s getting colder by the hour
but cold is what I am feeling
as it’s warm when my loves away
but keep the home fires burning
even though I’m mad about the girl
it’s been a cold and rainy night
the bars are looking so appealing
they say that I should be amused
maybe I will see the funny side of it soon
and its then that’s I feel alone
no one else is company
now I know I’m mad about the girl

All boys together

ALL BOYS TOGETHER
you try to wish your life away
but you get by how you can
‘cause the message from your cerebrals
say you shouldn’t be a man
your hands the size of frying pans
and you may be six foot four
But with some avon artistry
you’ll get away with it not sure?
but we’re all boys together
you’re still waiting for the catalogue
do you want the shirley or shirrelle
how about a pair of 42s
‘cause I’m sure they’d wobble well
as Derek pours the coffee out
in his over floral dress
you may all look like tory wives
oh but if it relieves the stress
knock the gin back
don the slingbacks
blow the wig Sassoon
sure you look
right under moonlight
or a darkened room
you try to hide your dick away
so it don’t show through your frock
it’s hard to tell with ladyboys
if they’ve got a gun to cock

WHAT GOES AROUND
shame we’ve all been hurt but now it’s your turn it’s ten times worse
I’ve been hearing about the bad things you’re gonna do
you think this planet should revolve around you
and now you stamp your feet ‘cause it ain't true
I tell you somehow it all comes back now
what goes around comes around
too late for being sorry if I was you I’d worry
what goes round comes around
it’ll all come back to haunt you I think I’d better warn you
so you wonder why your car won’t start
and things you touch just seem to fall apart
they’ve been feeling all the bad things pouring out of you
you’ve got a face on saying world beware
and all because the girl don’t care
I tell you somehow you better start letting go
now all the things that you said
causing people so much sorrow
but the curses you send will find their way back tomorrow

BLUE LIGHTS
I’m glad to belong to a woman unlike you
coz she loves and she cries
no lost it look in her eyes
you gave me such a bad time
I tried to make shit shine
please leave us I left you we cannot breathe
and I know we’ll see the sunlight
can’t wait for the day when we see blue lights
come and take her away
can’t bear to see me smile
you hear laughter from three miles
and come round to my house
all fired up with that mouth
you street shouter you door kicker
you’re just mad I’m with her
I’m in love you bring clouds we will be free
I just don’t need this anymore
I’m so glad she’s now and you’re before
you can kindly keep the misery you do
we can’t wait to see the back of you

YOU LEAVE ME OUT
girlfriend I thought we were on fire
but now it seems you’ve sold me out
to folks I know nothing about
you know I’m not a social beast
and i don’t want to meet no one
I thought the deal was you and me
you leave me out
friends, my so called friends
I thought we were a team
we used to share a common dream
so why now do you talk this way
I haven’t got one word to say
this conversation’s not for me
it’s a shame everything ain't exactly as it was
why must it change
but then again people say I ain't exactly how I was
but they’re strange
come back to my home town
although I love you so
why do you fill yourself
with places I don’t want to go
it’s like you don’t want me here
and when I think of what used to be
I almost shed a tear
you leave me out

MOONLUST
the world’s full of hurt
climb inside my shirt
the moon’s up
and you feel the same
a heavenly sight
basking in lunar light
I’ve got the moonlust
for your love
a night like this we can’t resist
it can’t be helped
our whole world showered with the moonlust
we’re someplace else
we’re both lost as we love moonlust
how our spirits connect
and we have astral sex
I will be with you
in the cold light of day
be strong my love be strong
we could love under the moon together
we could chase it around the world
but remember my bedroom ceiling’s
a lunar landscape girl
what else could you want from this world
so remember that we’re free love
there’s no looking back with me love
remember that we’ve got moon lust

I have to listen how your boyfriends are shallow
I’m deep but I'm yellow be mine, be mine

I’ll be there waiting in the line
we’re on two different lines
we’re in two different times
I’ll get you to be mine

I’ll say we’ll go out yeah
I should be ashamed but I don’t care

DARK LOVE
we fall into bed
I'm too drunk to speak yeah
by the time I turn over
she seems fast asleep yeah
she told me a secret I shouldn’t have known
and I have to keep it right here all alone
this is a dark love
she made me take a vow
this is a dark love
someday I’ll let it out
I start dripping water
onto her forehead
‘till it looks like she’s crying
well she normally is yeah
baby’s in pieces and I want to help
you’ll make yourself ill so don’t torture yourself
oooh she’s stirring she’s opening her mouth
over, over and over it’s the same words coming out
you have no idea how much i’ve suffered
this is a dark love
